Athol on November 12, 1787. He m. Sep- tember 3, 1788, Lucy Cushing, daughter of Nathaniel and Lucy (Turner) Cushing, of Pembroke, who were m. September 24, 1761. The Rev. Joseph5 Estabrook d. at Athol in April, 1830, having continued his pastoral labors nearly forty-three years. His children were: Turner, Lucy Cushing, Nathaniel C., Joseph Hubbard, Marcia (Mrs. Theodore Jones), Fidelia, and Benjamin.

Theodore Jones, father of the subject of this sketch, was b. at Templeton, Worcester County, August 24, 1780. He d. at Athol of apoplexy, January 5, 1863, aged eighty-three years, four months, and eleven days. While a young man in the employ of John Chandler, a general merchant doing business at Petersham, he had supervision of his store. For a number of years after he went to Athol to reside, he was in partnership with Mr. Chandler. At length, about the year 1823, he bought out the business, and for forty years, or until his death as above noted, he was prosperously engaged in trade. His courteous and pleasing manners were but the natural expression of his kindness and good will. He encouraged children and others to form habits of industry and thrift by serving as a savings-bank, receiving to be placed on interest small sums, giving his note therefor, which notes were always paid on de- mand. His judgment in town affairs was con- sidered of great value. He served a number of terms as Selectman; eleven years, 1818-29, as Town Clerk; 1840 to 1850 as Town Treasurer; in 1840, 1843, and 1845 as Representative in the Legislature; and for the last fifteen years of his life was the Trial Justice of the town. For many years he was a Deacon of the First Unitarian Church of Athol. He m. August 29, 1819, Marcia Estabrook, b. May 8, 1799, daughter of the Rev. Joseph and Lucy (Cushing) Estabrook. Nine children were the fruit of this union, namely : Joseph Estabrook, b. No- vember 11, 1820; Theodore Turner, b. Septem- ber 30, 1822, d. April 18, 1895; Charles Cush- ing, b. July 27, 1824, d. September 24, 1889; Frederick Eugene, b. February 15, 1828; Na- thaniel Hubbard, b. March 15, 1830; Ellen Adelia, b. October 23, 1832; Benjamin Or- ville, b. May 3, 1835; Jerome, the subject of

this sketch; and Marcia, b. March 22, 1843. The mother d. January 14, 1888.

Inheriting an aptitude for business and bred in a commercial atmosphere, Jerome Jones, having mastered the lessons taught at the village school, left the parental roof in Athol and went to work in the general mer- chandise store of Goddard & Ward in the neighboring town of Orange. In June, 1853, he entered the employ of Otis Norcross & Co., one of the largest importers of crockery and glassware in the United States. Here he applied himself diligently to serve the inter- ests of his employers and to learn the business. Discharging his duties promptly and well, he was promoted again and again to higher and more responsible positions with increase of salary. In 1861, when not twenty-four years old, Mr. Jones having proved himself in every way competent as a business manager, was admitted as a partner. In 1865 for the first time he went to Europe as foreign buyer. Mr. Norcross retiring from the firm in 1867 to ac- cept the office of Mayor of Boston, Mr. Jones, with Mr. Howland, under the style of Howland & Jones, carried on the business at 23 South Market Street until Mr. Howland's death in 1871. In 1874 Mr. Jones, with Lewis P. Mc- Duffee and Solomon P. Stratton, formed the firm of Jones, McDuffee & Stratton, recently merged into the Jones, McDuffee & Stratton Company, and located at the corner of Federal and Franklin Streets, in a store built for them by Gardner Brewer on the site of the old Fed- eral Street theatre.

Among the many interesting features of their extensive stock of art pottery and glassware may be mentioned a series of blue china plates bearing historic scenes, designs, and mottoes, this idea having been originated by Mr. Jones. These are executed in a highly artistic style, and great pains have been taken to have each scene as historically accurate as possible. Among them are: Landing of the Pilgrims; the Boston Tea Party; Boston in 1768; the Battle of Lexington Common; Faneuil Hall; the Return of the "Mayflower"; the Birth of the American Flag; Independence Hall, Phil- adelphia; the John Hancock House, Boston ; Mount Vernon, the Home of Washington; Old

South Church and Old North Church, Boston ; Signing of the Declaration of Independence; Washington Crossing the Delaware; the Spirit of '76; Longfellow's House; the White House and the Capitol, Washington ; and others. Each view is bordered by a rich and appropriate floral design. The series has attracted attention of art lovers and of all those interested in fine crockery.

Politically a Democrat of the Jeffersonian type, Mr. Jones was one of the early members of the Tariff Reform League. For two years, 1898-99, he was a member of Mayor Quincy's advisory board appointed by the Board of Trade. He is a director in the Merchants' Association, has served as president of the Commercial Club and as president of the Asso- ciated Board of Trade and of the Earthenware Association, and at the present time (1901) is vice-president of the Home Savings Bank. He is a director of the Third National Bank and of the Massachusetts Loan and Trust Com- pany, and a trustee of Mount Auburn Ceme- tery. For some time he was president of the Worcester and North-west Agricultural Society at Athol. Advised by his physician twenty- five years ago for the improvement of his health to take up his residence in some high location, he built a substantial and commodious dwelling on Corey Hill, Brookline. He takes an inter- est in the affairs of the town, is one of the Sinking Fund Commissioners, and has filled various local offices of trust. He attends the First Parish Unitarian Church of Brookline, and belongs to the Unitarian Club. He is a member of the Masonic fraternity, affiliating with Beethoven Lodge, F. & A. M., of Brook- line. He is also a member of the Sons of the American Revolution, of the Boston Chamber of Commerce, the Bunker Hill Monument As- sociation, the Brookline Thursday Club, and the Union Club.

Mr. Jones was married February 11, 1864, to Miss Elizabeth Reed Wait, daughter of Thomas and Louisa (Denio) Wait, of Green- field, Mass. She died July 10, 1878, leaving four children, namely : Theodore, born March 17, 1866; Elizabeth Wait, November 6, 1871 ; Marcia Estabrook, July 5, 1875; and Ellen Reed, July 1, 1878. Theodore Jones is asso-

ciated with his father in business, being a di- rector in the corporation. He married Ade- laide Zoebisch, and has two children : Rosalie, born February 5, 1899; and Theodore, Jr., born February 9, 1900. Elizabeth Wait Jones is the wife of Alfred Palmer Sherman, treasurer of the Gregory Shaw Company, of Framingham. Mr. Jones was married February 16, 1881, to Mrs. Elizabeth Dutton, daughter of Henry A. Gane and widow of William Henry Dutton, of the Boston Transcript Company.

R ICHARD LOMBARD MAYO, treas- urer of the National Fish Company of Boston, was born February 6, 1828, in Truro, Barnstable County, Mass. His parents were John7 and Elmira (Shedd) Mayo, his immigrant progenitor in the direct male line being the Rev. John Mayo, who was the first minister of the Second, or Old North, Church of Boston. From John' the descent is through John,2 who m. Hannah Lacroft (or Reycroft) ; Thomas, 3 b. in 1672; Noah, 4 who m. in 1742-3 Mary Cushing; Noah,5 b. in 1743-4, m. in 1764 Hope Rich; John,6 b. in 1776, who m. in 1798 Hannah Rich; John,7 above named; to Richard Lombard, who is of the eighth generation of the family in America.

The Rev. John Mayo was educated in Eng- land. Coming to this country about 1638 or 1639, in 1640 he was invested with the office of teaching elder of the church at Barnstable, being a colleague with the Rev. John Lothrop. In 1646 he removed to Nauset (now Eastham), where he continued to preach the gospel for some years. In November, 1655, he was in- stalled as minister of the Second Church of Boston, whose house of worship (then standing at the head of North Square) was called the Old North. (It was pulled down for fuel in January, 1776, by order of the British com- mander, General Howe.) Here Increase Mather in 1664 was ordained as teacher of the church. The Artillery Election sermon in June, 1658, was preached by the Rev. Mr. Mayo. In 1672, on account of failing health, he was relieved from the burden of supplying the pulpit, and in 1673 he removed to Cape Cod. He d. in Yarmouth at the home of his

132

daughter, Mrs. Joshua Howes, in 1676. His sons, John2 and Nathaniel, settled at Eastham.

John7 Mayo, son of John6 and Hannah (Rich) Mayo, was b. at Truro, January I, 1800, and was a lifelong resident of that town. For some years he followed the sea as a fisher- man. Afterward he engaged in mercantile business at Truro, keeping a country store until the time of his death in 1851. He m., first, Elmira Shedd, of Truro, daughter of Jed- ediah Shedd and his wife, Jemima Lombard (perhaps the Jemima baptized at Truro in 1784, recorded as a daughter of Simeon Lom- bard). Mrs. Elmira Shedd Mayo d. in 1837; her husband m., secondly, Mary Abigail Nye. Outliving his second wife also, he m. a third, whose given name was Abby. He had ten chil- dren, five of whom lived to adult age, namely : Richard L., of whom more below; John, who m. Catherine Baker, and d. in Chicago in 1896; Samuel N., who m. Louise Malloy, and resides in Medford; Timothy D., of East Boston; and Abbie Elmira, who m. Charles Burnham, of East Boston, and has one child, Ida.

Richard Lombard Mayo was educated in the public schools of Truro. For about fifteen years in his youth and early manhood he was engaged in deep sea fishing. In 1848, before completing his twenty-first year, he became master of the fishing schooner "Solon." At length abandoning the fishing industry, he commanded different vessels engaged in freighting, sailing from Boston to coast towns and the West Indies. Since 1871 he has been in the fish business in Boston; and he is now, as mentioned above, treasurer of the National Fish Company, whose office is on T Wharf, Boston. He resides in Winchester.

Mr. Mayo was married November 25, 1850, to Deborah Gross Smith, of Truro, Mass., daughter of James and Betsy M. (Higgins) Smith. James Smith, of Truro, and Betsy Milney Higgins were m. in 1824, Betsy being the daughter of Eleazer7 (Enoch,6 Eleazer, 5 Benjamin, 4-3-2 Richard') and Lurania (Gross) Higgins, who were m. at Truro in 1785. (Rich's History of Truro. ) . Richard ' Higgins, the immigrant from whom Mrs. Mayo is a de- scendant in the ninth generation, was at Plym- outh, New England, in 1633, and at Eastham,

on the Cape, in 1634. He served three years as Selectman and three years as Deputy to the General Court. Three children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Mayo, namely : James Herbert, May 16, 1853; Dora Melanie, July 27, 1861 ; and Richard Olin, September 29, 1867, who died in infancy. James Herbert Mayo went to sea with Captain Atkins Rich, and was lost off Georges Banks, the vessel being never heard from. Dora Melanie Mayo, who was educated at Lasell Seminary, West Newton, Mass., is married to Henry C. Nickerson, of Boston. They reside in Winchester, Mass., and have one child, a daughter, Carol Mayo Nickerson.

ENRY MACY UPHAM, of the firm of Damrell & Upham, proprietors of the "Old Corner Bookstore," situ- ated at the junction of Washington and School Streets, Boston, was born March 23, 1844, at Nantucket, third child of Will- iam8 and Margaret Gardner (Folger) Upham. From William8 the line of descent is traced back through David,7 Jonathan,6 Jonathan, 5 Jonathan, 4 Phineas, 3 and Phineas2 to John1.

John Upham's descendants embrace over five hundred heads of families, and have reached to the tenth generation. He was b. in Eng- land, probably in Somersetshire, and came to Weymouth with the Hull colony in 1635, when he was thirty-five years old. With him came his wife, Elizabeth, then thirty-two years old; Sarah Upham, aged twenty-six, who is believed to have been his sister; John Upham, Jr., aged seven years; Nathaniel, aged five years ; and Elizabeth, aged three years. The maiden name of his wife is supposed to have been Webb. On September 2, 1635, he was ad- mitted a freeman at Weymouth. He took a prominent part in the colony's affairs, was a Representative to the General Court in 1636, for the two terms in 1637, and for the first term held in Newton in 1638. As shown by records in Boston, his son John was buried at Weymouth "5d. 4m. 1640." In 1642 he was one of the six colonists commissioned to treat with the Indians for the lands of Weymouth, and who obtained the title thereto. He was

133

GENEALOGY AND PERSONAL HISTORY

Selectman in 1643, 1645, 1646, and 1647. In 1644, with two other persons, he received from the General Court authority to "end small causes at Weymouth." He removed to Malden between 1648 and 1650, probably in 1648. The records show that he was a Selectman of Malden in 1651 and 1655. In 1657, 1659, 1661, and 1662 the Supreme Court appointed him a commissioner "for ending small causes in Malden."

He was also a Deacon of the church, and presided at town meetings as moderator in 1678, 1679, and 1680. He was interested in the settlement of Worcester in 1678. His first wife d. after December 2, 1670; and in August, 1671, he m. Katherine Holland, she having come to the country with the Hull col- onists. His own death took place February 25, 1681, and his gravestone is still to be seen in the old burying-ground at Malden. He was evidently a man of character and energy, and much respected by the community. His will was not found.

Phineas2 Upham was b. probably in 1635. He was appointed Lieutenant before 1675, served with that rank in King Philip's War, and was known as Lieutenant Phineas Upham. He received a grant of land in Worcester, July 8, 1673, "in consideration of his labor, travel, and activity ... in furthering, advancing, and encouraging the settlement of Worcester, the plantation." By his wife, Ruth Wood, to whom he was m. April 14, 1658, he had seven children, namely : Phineas, b. May 22, 1659; Nathaniel, b. 1661; Ruth, b. 1664, d. De- cember 8, 1676; John, b. December 9, 1666, who m. Abigail Hayward or Howard; Eliza- beth, who m. Samuel Green, October 28, 1691 ; Thomas, b. 1668; and Richard, b. 1675. Worcester, then called Quinsigamond and sometimes Lydbury, owes its foundation in no small degree to Lieutenant Phineas Upham. He d. in October, 1676. His wife, Ruth, d. January 18, 1696-7, aged sixty years.

Phineas3 Upham, b. in Malden, May 22, 1659, eldest son of Phineas, 2 m. Mary Mellins in 1682 or 1683. He was Selectman of Mal- den from 1692 to 1696, inclusive; Town Treasurer from 1697 to 1701, inclusive, dur- ing which period he was employed in settling

several estates; Representative to the General Court from Malden in 1701 ; also Selectman in 1709 and 1710. At this time he was called Deacon. He was moderator of town meeting for 1711, 1714, and 1715; Representative again in 1716 and 1718; and moderator and Selectman again in 1717. He d. in 1720, and was buried in the old burying-ground in Mal- den, as evidenced by the gravestone. His wife survived him for some time. Their children were: Phineas, b. June 10, 1682; Mary, b. 1685, d. August 20, 1687; James, b. 1687; Mary, b. 1689, m. May 28, 1713, John Griffin, of Charlestown, and moved to Middletown, Conn. ; Ebenezer, m. Elizabeth Blanchard, October 10, 1717; Jonathan, b. 1694, who became a resident of Nantucket; William, b. October 30, 1697; Elizabeth, b. in 1699 or 1700, m. Jonathan Dowse, Jr., May 19, 1726, and d. in Charlestown, June 19, 1730.

death occurring November 16, 1854, at Roots- town, Portage County, Ohio, and hers March 18, 1855, also at Rootstown. The following is a brief record of their children : Lydia, b. September 17, 1800, d. May 10, 1806. David, b. May 1, 1806, a sea captain, m. Almira Orpin, April 26, 1829. He d. of yellow fever in New Orleans, September 4, 1849, leaving no children. His widow m.

Eliza B., b. July 28, 1822, d. in July, 1900. She m. John M. Folger, June 12, 1841, and had no children.

William8 Upham, b. October 2, 1808, as mentioned above, m. Margaret Gardner Folger. In 1852, as captain of the ship "Gazelle," he sailed for the South Pacific Ocean, having with him his wife and son Henry. From this voy- age he never returned, dying of consumption at the Marquesas Islands, March 12, 1855. His children were: Delia Maria, b. Septem- ber 29, 1835, at Nantucket, who resides in Boston; William Folger, b. October 26, 1839, at Nantucket, who d. April 14, 1850; and Henry Macy, the subject of this sketch.

Henry Macy Upham's early days were spent in Nantucket. He was but eight years old when he accompanied his parents on the voyage to the South Pacific Ocean. After his father's death at the Marquesas Islands, as related, he and his mother, enduring much hardship and escaping many perils, made the return journey by way of San Francisco and the Panama route, reaching Nantucket, June 27, 1855. The next four years were spent at school. Having a strong liking for books, he then went to Clare- mont, N. H., where he was apprenticed to the book and stationery business. He had been there three years when his application for the increase of his salary from fifty dollars to one hundred dollars per year was refused, and he therefore left. This refusal proved a fortunate thing, for had his request been granted he would

have remained content in his employment. The firm failed a few years after. The kind- ness shown him at Claremont by one of his employers is remembered by him with feelings of sincere gratitude to this day. In May, 1864, he came to Boston. In October of the same year he entered the United States Navy as an acting master's mate, and afterward served on the "Savannah," "Suwannee," "Massachusetts," "Mercidita," "Muscoota," and "Clematis," being in the Gulf Squadron for most of the time. He was honorably dis- charged August 31, 1866, "with thanks of the department," in accordance with his own wish to return to civil life and to his loved books.

On this occasion he voluntarily surrendered a salary of one thousand dollars a year to take one of five dollars per week as a clerk in the book-store of E. P. Dutton & Co., afterward A. Williams & Co., Boston. In 1872 Mr. Alex- ander Williams took Mr. Upham into partner- ship. The firm then included, beside Mr. Williams and Mr. Upham, Charles L. Dam- rell and J. G. Cupples. Mr. Williams selling his interest to his partners in 1883, the firm name became Cupples, Upham & Co. In 1887 Mr. Cupples sold his interest to his two part- ners, who continued the business under the style of Damrell & Upham. After the death of Mr. Damrell, March 28, 1896, Mr. Upham purchased his interest in the business, and be- came sole proprietor, though retaining the last firm name. On July 1, 1899, Mr. Upham dis- posed of a part of his interest to Mr. George A. Moore, who is now a member of the firm of Damrell & Upham.

Mr. Upham has been identified with this celebrated store since 1866. Probably built in 1712 for a dwelling-house, and having a small shop, the structure had served several purposes before it became "The Old Corner Bookstore," the Mecca for literary celebrities for three or four generations. Here Mr. Up- ham has conversed with Longfellow, Whittier, Holmes, Phillips Brooks, and met Dickens, Matthew Arnold, and the Duke of Argyle - all gone now. The fact that so many of his customers bearing illustrious names are dead recalls to him the pathetic lines of Lowell, written on his sixty-eighth birthday : -

I35

GENEALOGY AND PERSONAL HISTORY

" As life runs on, the road grows strange With faces new ; and near the end The milestones into headstones change, 'Neath every one a friend."

The store is prosperous, not merely because it is attractive in its appearance, but because it has not failed to meet the demands of the cus- tomers for so long a period of time, and has not turned aside from book-selling to engage in any other venture. Mr. Upham has been rigorously opposed to the firm's engaging in the publishing business, and the policy has been amply vindicated by the history of Boston pub- lishing firms for the past fifteen or twenty years. On February 24, 1870, Mr. Upham married Grace Le Baron, daughter of John G. and Jane E. (Starkweather) Locke. Mr. Up- ham is a member of the Society of Colonial Wars; the United States Navy Veteran Asso- ciation; the G. A. R., E. W. Kinsley Post, No. 113; and is treasurer of the Episcopalian Club of Massachusetts. In politics he is in- dependent.

AMES BRADLEY THAYER, LL.D., Weld Professor of Law at Harvard Uni- versity, was born January 15, 1831, at Haverhill, Mass., son of Abijah Wyman and Susan (Bradley) Thayer. His descent from Thomas' Thayer, an early settler at Brain- tree, admitted freeman in 1647, is through Shadrach,2 who m. at Braintree, in 1654, Mary Barrett, and after her death, in 1658, m. Deliver- ance Priest ; Ephraim,3 b. in 1669, who m. in 1692 Sarah Bass, and secondly, when he was eighty-four years old, m. Mrs. Mary Kingman ; Christopher,4 b. in 1703, who m. Mary Morse and settled at Braintree; Christopher,5 b. in 1741, who m. Bethiah, daughter of Ebenezer and Bethiah (Adams) Hunt, of Weymouth, and settled at Peterboro, N.H. ; William,6 b. in 1767, who m. in 1792, Abigail, daughter of Captain Abijah Wyman, of Ashby, Mass .; and Abijah Wyman7 Thayer, above named, b. January 5, 1796, at Peterboro, N.H., who m. November 9, 1 824, Susan, daughter of Jonathan Bradley, Esq., of Andover, Mass.

Thomas Thayer (or Tayer, as his name was written), came to this country with his wife and

three sons - Thomas, Ferdinando, and Shadrach -from the parish of Thornbury, Gloucester- shire, England, where, as the records show, he was m. to Margerie Wheeller, April 13, 1618, and Shadrach, his third son, was baptized May 10, 1629. Sarah Bass, first wife of Ephraim Thayer and mother of all his children, was a daughter of John and Ruth (Alden) Bass, of Braintree, and, on her mother's side, grand- daughter of John and Priscilla (Mullins) Alden. Bethiah Adams, wife of Ebenezer Hunt, of Weymouth, was a daughter of Joseph3 and Han- nah (Bass) Adams. Her father was son of Joseph, Sr.,2 and Abigail (Baxter) Adams and grandson of Henry Adams, Sr., of Braintree, founder of the family to which two Presidents of the United States belonged. Hannah Bass was a daughter of John and Ruth (Alden) Bass and sister of Sarah, the wife of Ephraim Thayer.

Abijah Wyman, above named, maternal grand- father of Abijah Wyman Thayer, was b. at Lancaster, Mass., in 1745. His military service began in 1758, when he was drummer in the expedition against Fort William Henry, and was long continued, he being repeatedly called to take up arms. As Captain of the Ashby com- pany in Colonel Prescott's regiment, he fought at Bunker Hill. He was afterward a leading citizen and Selectman of Ashby, where he d. in 1804. He was the son of Abijah, Sr., and his wife, Abigail (evidently Abigail Smith, of Newbury, as their marriage intentions were pub- lished in July, 1744, Lancaster records), grand- son of Benjamin2 and Elizabeth (Hancock) Wy- man, and great-grandson of Francis™ Wyman, early settler of Woburn, Mass.
