Emma Knowlton, and grandson of Robert4 Leach and his wife Abigail, daughter of Jo- seph Woodbury, who was the son of Nicholas Woodbury and Elizabeth West, daughter of Captain Thomas West, son of John West, the immigrant. The father of Nicholas Woodbury was William Woodbury, and the wife of Nich- olas was Anna Palsgrave, daughter of Richard Palsgrave and Joanne Harris. The father of Robert4 Leach was Samuel3 Leach, whose wife was Arabella Norman, daughter of John Nor- man. His father was Robert2 Leach, son of Lawrence Leach, the immigrant. Emma Knowlton came from William1 Knowlton, the immigrant, through Captain John2 Knowlton, who m. Bethiah Carter; Ezekiel Knowlton, who m. Sarah Leach; and Ezekiel Knowlton, who m. Emma Foster, daughter of John Foster. The second Captain Benjamin Leach m. his cousin, Sarah Knowlton, daughter of John Knowlton, whose wife was Mary Herrick, who came from the original Henry' Herrick through John, John, and Jonathan, being thus con- nected directly with the families of Redding- ton, Gould, Kimball, Witt, Dodge, Haskell, Friend, and Moulton.

Mr. Gould's maternal grandmother was Susan, or Susannah Cheever, who descended directly from Ezekiel Cheever, the famous Latin schoolmaster, through the Rev. Samuel Cheever, the noted minister of Marblehead for fifty-five years, who m. Ruth Angier, daughter of Edmund Angier and Ruth Ames, of Cam- bridge, and grand-daughter of the Rev. Dr. William Ames, whose portrait is to be seen in Memorial Hall of Harvard University. The Rev. Ames Cheever was the son of the Rev. Samuel Cheever (both graduates of Harvard College), and was for many years the minister of Manchester, Mass. He m. Sarah Choate, daughter of Captain Thomas Choate and Mary Varney. Their son, Ezekiel Cheever, m. Susannah Butler, daughter of William Butler and Sarah Marshall, the daughter of John Marshall. They were the parents of Susan Cheever.

Captain Thomas Choate was the son of John' Choate, who was the first settler near Chebacco Lake, and was the first of that name in Essex County, and from him have descended many

who have made the Choate name famous. Mary Varney's grandfathers were William Varney and John Proctor, both noted men in their day, and from John Proctor have come many able men and women. William Butler's father was William Butler, who m. Susannah Cogswell, daughter of Captain John Cogswell (b. 1661) and Elizabeth Wainwright, daughter of Francis Wainwright. His father was Lieu- tenant William Butler, who m. Sarah Cross, daughter of Robert Cross. Captain John Cogswell was son of William Cogswell, who was b. in 1619, and son of the original John, 1 who came over with William with a stock of goods in the "Angel Gabriel " in 1635. Will- iam Cogswell's wife was Susannah Hawkes, daughter of Adam' Hawkes. John Marshall descended from Edmund Marshall and Milli- cent, his wife; and his father was Benjamin Marshall, who m. Prudence Woodward, daugh- ter of Ezekiel Woodward and Anne Beamsley, whose father was William Beamsley, a car- penter by occupation, who is on record as con- tributing, prior to his death in 1659, twenty pounds to Harvard College.

John Marshall's wife was Sarah Perkins, daughter of Isaac Perkins and Hannah Knight, whose father, Alexander Knight, d. in 1664. Isaac Perkins's father was John2 Perkins, son of the original John' Perkins and his wife Judith.

Lizzie Lawrence Cooke was b. in Boston, May 3, 1856, and educated in the Boston Grammar and Girls' High Schools, although a resident of Chelsea, where she was m. to George L. Gould June 23, 1875, by the Rev. A. P. Foster.

Her ancestors were almost entirely from New Hampshire, whereas those of Mr. Gould were entirely from Massachusetts, and nearly all from Essex County. Her father was Dr. MacLaurin Furber Cooke, of Boston and Chel- sea, who was b. in Newington, N. H., January 5, 1821. He received his education in acad- emies and Dartmouth College, where he was graduated in the class of 1847, and afterward studied medicine, graduating from the Medical School of Harvard University in the class of 1855. He became a teacher in the public schools of Boston, resigning from the Master-

ship of the Hancock School, on account of ill- health, in 1870; and he d. in Chelsea, Novem- ber II, 1875. He m. in 1855 Mary Elizabeth Moore (daughter of Dr. Edward Bucknam and Elizabeth (Lawrence) Moore), who was b. Feb- . ruary 12, 1831, and d. June 14, 1856. Dr. Cooke's ancestry extends back to John Cooke, sometimes called "Great John" Cooke, who lived in Dover, N. H., in the early part of the eighteenth century, and who is thought by some to have been the Captain John Cooke sent by Governor Joseph Dudley with Church's expe- dition in 1704 to go to Piscataqua from Plym- outh "to embark in whale boats and search for the enemy." There was a Captain John Cooke (probably descended from Francis Cooke of the "Mayflower ") who commanded one of these whale boats, says Church's Narrative, and, as this was near Dover, it is possible that "Great John" Cooke may have been son of that Captain John Cooke. He had a son Heze- kiah, whose son Jedediah Cooke m. Catherine Tuttle, daughter of Thomas Tuttle and Sarah Hanson. Jedediah Cooke had a son Thomas, of Farmington, N. H., who m. Nancy Furber, daughter of Levi Furber and Rosamond Fab- yan, daughter of Deacon John Fabyan. Thomas Cooke and Nancy Furber were the parents of MacLaurin Furber Cooke.

Thomas Tuttle was the son of Thomas Tuttle (probably of Dover), whose father, Ensign John Tuttle, Jr., was killed by the Indians May 17, 1712. He left a widow, Ju- dith Otis, daughter of Richard Otis and Rose Stoughton, their fathers being Stephen Otis and Anthony Stoughton. Ensign Tuttle's father was John2 Tuttle, who held many offices in his day, being Selectman, Representative to Convention, 1689, assembly in 1698, and Judge of the Court of Common Pleas, 1695. His father was the original John' Tuttle, who lived at Dover Neck and d. in 1662. Cath- erine Tuttle's mother was Sarah Hanson, a descendant of Thomas Hanson, who d. in 1666, and Mary, his wife, who was killed by the Indians, June 28, 1689. Their son was Thomas Hanson, b. about 1643, and his son was John Hanson, who m. his wife Elizabeth, May 23, 1703. Their son, John Hanson, who was the father of Sarah Hanson Tuttle, was b. in 1712,

and m. Phœbe Austin, who was b. March 14, 1718. She was the daughter of Nathaniel Austin, who was b. February 1, 1687 (son of Thomas Austin and Anne, his wife), and Cath- erine Neale. Levi Furber descended from William' Furber (b. about 1614, came over in 1635 in the "Angel Gabriel ") and Elizabeth, his wife. William Furber worked one year for John' Cogswell, of Ipswich. He was a witness of the Wheelwright deed; and he also made a deposition in a law-suit, Cogswell v. Cogswell, relating to the "Angel Gabriel." His son, William2 Furber, b. about 1646, m. Elizabeth Heard (daughter of Captain John Heard), who d. November 9, 1703. Their son, William3 Furber, of Nottingham, N. H., m. Sarah or Elizabeth Nute, and was the father of Nehemiah' Furber, b. January 24, 1710, who m. Abigail Leighton, b .. January 14, 1710, they being the parents of Levi Furber.

Dr. Edward Bucknam Moore was the son of Coffin Moore and Mary or Polly Bucknam, the first white girl b. in Lancaster, N. H. She was daughter of General Edwards Bucknam, who was one of the pioneers of Lancaster, N. H., having come from Athol, Mass., where he was b. June 21, 1741, and was probably named for the Rev. Jonathan Edwards, of Northampton, who was at the height of his career at that time, and who exerted a wonder- ful influence throughout the central part of Massachusetts. The wife of General Edwards Bucknam was Susannah Page, daughter of David Page, of Lunenburg, Mass. (the founder of Lancaster N. H.), and Priscilla Boynton, his wife, daughter of Benoni Boynton, of Lunenburg. General Bucknam was very prom- inent in Lancaster affairs, and made practically all of the original surveys of the land in that town. He was, so to speak, "jack of all trades," and seemed indispensable during the early days to the life of the little settlement. He was Captain and Major of the militia, and also Brigadier-General of the Sixth Brigade, being appointed to that position by the Gover- nor and Council, June 18, 1799. His parents were Joseph and Mary Bucknam, who moved from Lexington to Athol prior to 1740. His father was William Bucknam (b. February 22, 1688-9), son of Lieutenant Joses Bucknam, b.

in Charlestown (now Everett), July 3, 1641, and Judith Worth, daughter of Lionel' Worth, the immigrant, and Susannah Whipple. The father of Lieutenant Joses was William Buck- nam, b. 1602 -the first of this name in America - who came over from Ipswich, Eng- land, in the Winthrop fleet in 1630, probably as one of the carpenters brought out by Gover- nor Craddock. He settled in what is now Everett, near the Malden line, and became an influential citizen. His second wife was Sarah Knower, who came over in the same ship with the Rev. Joseph Glover (sometimes spelled Jose or Joses), who d. on the trip; and it is probable that it was through this compan- ionship, or possible relationship, that her son should beár the singular name of Joses, which has been carried down through seven or more generations. Dr. Edward Bucknam Moore was b. in Lancaster, N. H., January 12, 1801. He was well known for over a quarter of a century at the North End of Boston, having a large practice as a physician, a graduate of the Medical School of Bowdoin College in the class of 1828. He was a Coroner of Suffolk County, a member of the Boston School Com- mittee, and a thirty-third degree Mason. He d. in Chelsea, September 15, 1874, respected by all as a man of strong individuality, clear head, and upright living.

Coffin Moore's father was Dr. Coffin Moore, b. in Stratham, N. H., 1739, m. Comfort Weeks, daughter of John Weeks and Martha Wingate, daughter of Major Joshua Wingate, of Hampton, N. H. Dr. Coffin Moore's parents were William Moore, of Stratham, N. H. (son of William Moore and grandson of Colonel Jonathan Moore, a retired British officer), and Abigail Gilman, daughter of Colonel John Gilman, of Exeter, N. H., and Elizabeth Coffin, daughter of the Hon. Peter Coffin. Colonel John Gilman's father was the Hon. John Gilman (who m. Elizabeth Tre- worgye, daughterof James Treworgye and Cath- erine Shapleigh, whose father was Alexander Shapleigh). The Hon. Peter Coffin's father was Tristram' Coffin, son of Peter Coffin, of England; and his mother was Dionis Stevens, daughter of Robert Stevens. His wife was Abigail Starbuck, daughter of Edward Star-

buck, of Dover, N.H., who, with Tristram Coffin, helped to settled Nantucket during the middle of the seventeenth century. Dr. John Weeks's parents were Captain Joshua Weeks, of Greenland, son of the original Leonard' Weeks and Mary Haines, daughter of Deacon Samuel Haines, who came over in the "Angel Gabriel " with William Furber in 1635. Captain Joshua Weeks's wife was Comfort Hubbard, daughter of Richard Hubbard and Martha Allen, whose parents were William Allen and Ann Goodale, daughter of Richard' Goodale and his wife Dorothy, who settled in Newbury, Mass., in 1637, and went to Salisbury in 1639 or 1640. Major Joshua Wingate, of Hampton, was the son of John Wingate, of Dover, and widow Sarah Taylor Canney, daughter of Anthony Taylor. Major Wingate's wife was Mary Lunt, daughter of Henry Lunt.

Mrs. Gould's grandmother, Mrs. Elizabeth Lawrence Moore (b. May 15, 1810, d. Febru- ary 5, 1895), was the daughter of Samuel Law- rence, of Epping, N. H., whose wife was Bet- sey Thyng, daughter of Lieutenant Dudley Thyng, and his wife, Apphia Rowe.

Robert Rowe, formerly of Kingston, N. H., was a Captain of militia, and at one time had ten of his own sons in the same company. His son, Deacon Robert Rowe, of Brentwood, m. Abigail Tilton, and they were the parents of Apphia Rowe. Lieutenant Dudley Thyng was the son of Josiah Thyng, son of Samuel Thyng, of Exeter, and grandson of Jonathan Thyng and Johannah, his wife. Josiah Thyng's mother was Abigail Gilman, daughter of the Hon. John Gilman and Elizabeth Treworgye. His wife was Hannah Dudley, daughter of Samuel Dudley and Hannah Colcord, and grand-daughter of Stephen Dudley, son of the Rev. Samuel Dudley, of Exeter (whose father, Thomas Dudley, was Governor of Massachu- setts), and Sarah Gilman, daughter of the Hon. John Gilman and Elizabeth Treworgye. Hannah Colcord's parents were Edward' Col- cord, the immigrant, who d. in Hampton, February 10, 1682, and Ann Page, his wife. Samuel Lawrence's mother was Lydia Sias, daughter of Joseph Sias, of Lee, N. H., and Ruth Mathes, his wife. His father was

GENEALOGY AND PERSONAL HISTORY

David Lawrence, of Epping, N. H., son of David Lawrence, Sr., and Annie Gordon, his wife. The house built in 1764 by the second David Lawrence on the Nottingham Road, Red Oak Hill, Epping, and for a time owned by Mrs. Gould, is still standing in a most ex- cellent state of preservation.

Since 1867, on leaving the Chelsea High School, Mr. Gould has been identified with the paint, oil, and varnish business, and for the last twelve years has been president of Gould & Cutler Corporation, located at 69- 71 and 75 Union Street, Boston. He has served as president of the Paint and Oil Club of New England, and has been vice-president of the National Paint, Oil, and Varnish Asso- ciation, besides having served for six years as delegate to the Boston Associated Board of Trade and other organizations.

Mr. Gould has served the city of Malden as

Water Commissioner, Commissioner of Sinking Funds, and was also one of a commit- tee of fifteen citizens appointed by the town in 1880 to frame a city charter. Since 1887 he has been continually identified with the Mal- den Co-operative Bank, serving as director,

vice-president, and president, resigning the latter office in the spring of 1901 on account of his health. He is a member of the Society of Colonial Wars and Sons of the American Revolution, and, besides being a member of fraternal organizations, is vice-president of the Malden Historical Society and a member of the Topsfield Historical Society. He was also a member of the committee on the cele- bration of the two hundred and fiftieth anniver- sary of the founding of Malden, observed in 1899; and has been a life member of the New England Historic-Genealogical Soci- ety since 1897, having joined the society in 1 896.

Mr. and Mrs. Gould have had six children, as follows : Warren Furber Gould, born June 28, 1876; George Lawrence Gould, born Au- gust 23, 1877, and died the same day; Mac- Laurin Cooke Gould, born January 25, 1880, died November 8, 1887; Bertram Cheever Gould, born March 17, 1881; Miriam Gould, born November 19, 1882; and Rosamond Gould, born July 24, 1887. Warren Furber

Gould is engaged in business with his father at 75 Union Street, and Bertram Cheever Gould is in the employ of the Corona Kid Company, 95 South Street, Boston.

With an ancestry and associations so closely identified with Essex County, it is not to be wondered at that Mr. Gould should seek out the beautifully located town of Topsfield, settled by the first Gould, as a place for his summer residence. On the old ancestral acres, now known as "Pinelands," he built in 1895 a beautiful house, in which is to be found many old-fashioned pieces of furniture and utensils. He also retains the old barn, origi- nally built in 1749, by one of his early ances- tors, and remodelled and modernized by him. In various ways he has done much to benefit the town. He was one of the executive com- mittee of twenty-five appointed by the citizens to celebrate on August 16, 1900, the two hun- dred and fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the town. At this celebration Governor Crane, Lieutenant-Governor Bates, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Congressman William H. Moody, and many other distinguished guests were present. Mr. Gould removed from Woburn to Chelsea in 1863, but for the last twenty-five years has been identified with Mal- den interests. In 1899 he removed from the Maplewood district to his new residence at the West End of Malden, 24 Alpine Street, where he resides with his entire family.

MERY MARTIN MAYO, now living in retirement at Watertown, Mass., was formerly a well-known merchant of

Boston. Son of Martin and Tabitha (Stratton) Mayhew, born March 8, 1834, in Framingham, Mass., he traces his descent through four gen- erations from John Mayo, the founder of the family in New England. The line is: John,1 Thomas, 2 John, 3 John, 4 Martin, 5 Emery Mar- tin6. John Mayo was the son of Thomas and Elizabeth Mayo. He was b. in England, and was but an infant when his father died. His mother m. again, and came with her second husband, Robert Gambril, Jr., and her child to this country. Having sailed on the "Will- iam and Francis," the family arrived here

May 20, 1632, and subsequently settled in Rox- bury, Mass.

John Mayo,' who sometimes spelled his name "Mayho," m. Hannah Graves. The public records show that his will was probated June 11, 1691. His fifth child, Thomas, 2 b. December 12, 1676, became a resident of Fra- mingham, Mass. He m. Elizabeth Davis on May 4, 1699, and d. May 26, 1750. John, 3 the fifth child of Thomas and Elizabeth Mayo, was b. September 17, 1709. His version of the family's surname was "Mayhew," which the most of his descendants subsequently re- tained. After having lived in Shrewsbury, Southboro, and Framingham, he was a resident of Hopkinton, where he d. in May, 1776. On February 21, 1743, he m. Hannah Rugg, who was a daughter of Jonathan Rugg.

John+ Mayhew, the second child of John and Hannah Mayhew, was b. in Southboro, Mass., April 28, 1747. Having marched to Concord on the Lexington alarm as a private in the company of Captain Micajah Gleason, this ancestor was one of the men to whom belongs the honor of beginning the Revolutionary War. He also served the cause of American independence under Captain Jesse Eames in the Fifth Regiment, commanded by Colonel Bullard. In 1780 both he and his wife, whose maiden name was Abigail Cloyes, were re- ceived into the church in Framingham. His death occurred on February 27, 1832. Of his five children, the youngest, Martin, b. in Fra- mingham, March 17, 1795, was the father of the subject of this sketch. In October, 1821, Martin Mayhew m. Tabitha Stratton, of Hol- den, Mass. Five children were the fruit of this union, namely: George. Frederick, who was b. in 1823 and d. in 1880; John and Elizabeth (twins), b. in 1826; Emery Martin, the fourth child, whose birth is given above; and Lucy, who was b. in 1836. The father d. September 14, 1857; and the mother's death occurred on October 26, 1861, when she was sixty-one years old.

The education of Emery Martin Mayo, who has returned to the original orthography of his surname, was received in the public schools of Framingham. In April, 1861, he removed to Watertown. A few years later he became a

member of the Hollis Dressed Meat & Wool Company, of Boston, wholesale dealers in mut- ton, lamb, and veal. While maintaining this connection he served for a time as general man- ager of the business. He retired upon a goodly competence in 1896.

Mr. Mayo was first married January 1, 1856, to Julia Etta Brown, daughter of Lucius T. and Elizabeth Brown. She was born in Townsend, Vt., June 24, 1834; and she died September 5, 1867. His second marriage was October 28, 1868, to Alice Adelaide Thomp- son, born in Newburyport, September 9, 1848, daughter of Richard Moore and Christiana (Emerson) Thompson. Her mother was a daughter of Jonathan and Mary (Reed) Emer- son. The children of Mr. Mayo's first mar- riage were: Charles Emery, who, born March 8, 1857, died August 24, 1859; Frederick Brown, born October 18, 1860, now a resident of Buffalo, N. Y. ; and Herbert Edward, born December 4, 1863. Those of the second mar- riage were : Harry Otis, born April 28, 1872; Alice Christine, born March 9, 1875, who died February 26, 1879; and Emery Clifton, born January 26, 1880, who died May 12, 1885.

By his first marriage, which was contracted with Bettie Farrah, of Newport, Ky., Freder- ick B. Mayo became the father of three chil- dren - Elsie Mary, Fannie Etta, and Alice Adelaide. His second wife, whose maiden name was Alice Newton, had one child -- Fm- ery Newton. Herbert E. Mayo, who resides in Watertown, married Kittie A. Lester on May 5, 1880, and has one child - Walter Les- ter, born February 12, 1888. Harry Otis Mayo lives with his father in Watertown.

AMUEL STORMS HOUGHTON, late of the firm of Houghton, Dut- ton & Co., and for many years an enterprising and successful dry- goods merchant of Boston, was born September 10, 1824, in the town of Fairlee, Orange County, Vt. His parents were Peter and Nancy Ann (Storms) Houghton. The history of his ancestors in America is to be looked for in the records of Worcester and Middlesex

SAMUEL STORMS HOUGHTON.

GENEALOGY AND PERSONAL HISTORY

Counties, Massachusetts. His father, Peter Houghton, who d. at Fairlee, Vt., August 15, 1855, was b. January 25, 1768, at Leominster, Mass., being the youngest son of Abiathar and Millicent (Carter) Houghton.

A Gershom Houghton is said to have been the first settler, 1725, in what is now the south part of Leominster. Gershom Hough- ton and Elizabeth Rugg were m. at Lancaster, February 23, 1724-5; and Abiathar, son of Gershom and Elizabeth, was b. in January, 1725-6. There can be no doubt that this Abiathar was the father of Peter and grand- father of the late Samuel Storms Houghton.

Searching for the origin of this family in New England, we learn that about the middle of the seventeenth century two Houghton im- migrants, namely, John and his wife, Beatrix, and Ralph and his wife, Jane, settled at Lan- caster, Mass. Ralphª removed to Milton, and d. there in 1705, and John' d. at Lancaster, April 29, 1684. The sons of John' were : John, Jr.,2 b. in 1650; Robert,2 b. in 1658; Jonas, b. in 1660; and Benjamin, b. in 1668. The History of the Town of Berlin, Worcester County, by the Rev. William A. Houghton, states that John, Sr., d. in 1684 on the old common, where he settled after the massacre, and that on the division of his lands his son John retained the homestead and gave land for the meeting-house there. Robert settled in Clinton, Jonas in Bolton, and Benjamin on a plain south of Bolton depot, all these places then being included in Lancaster.

A Gershom Houghton, son of Joseph Hough- ton, was b. at Lancaster in 1691. Of him we know nothing further. It seems likely that Gershom, the father of Abiathar, was the one mentioned in this church record of Lan- caster under date of August 3, 1718: "Ger- shom, Eleazer, and Ebenezer Houghton, sons of Robert Houghton, owned the covenant and were baptized." Robert Houghton, Sr., was one of the Selectmen of Lancaster in March, 1713-4. (Annals of Lancaster, Supplement by Henry S. Nourse, 1900.) He d. Novem- ber 7, 1723, in the sixty-fifth year of his age. His widow, Esther Houghton, d. January 13, 1740-1, in her eighty-second year. In May, 1716, Deborah Houghton, wife of Robert

Houghton, Jr., was admitted to the First Church of Lancaster.

Abiathar Houghton and Millicent Carter were m. at Lancaster, July 3, 1750, by Josiah Converse, Esq. Millicent was the eldest child of Samuel4 and Jemima (Houghton) Carter. Her father was a descendant in the fourth generation of the Rev. Thomas Carter, A. M., the first minister of Woburn, Mass. The line of descent from Thomas' was contin- ued through his son, the Rev. Samuel,2 b. in 1640 (Harvard College, 1660) ; Samuel, 3 b. at Woburn in 1677; to Samuel, 4 b. in 1703, d. at Lancaster in 1761. Thomas' Carter was educated at Cambridge University, England. He came to this country in 1635, was ordained and settled as minister at Woburn, November 22, 1642, and d. there in 1684. Samuel2 Carter m. Eunice Brooks, daughter of John and Eunice (Mousall) Brooks, of Woburn. In 1685 and 1686 he was teacher of a grammar school at Woburn, and in 1690 he was Town Clerk. At the time of his death, autumn of 1693, he was the settled minister of Groton. His son Samuel, 3 who d. at Lancaster in 1738, m. in 1701 Dorothy Wilder, daughter of Na- thaniel and Mary (Sawyer) Wilder.

Peter Houghton and Nancy Ann Storms, who were m. in 1801, at Stillwater, N. Y., settled at Fairlee, Vt. They had twelve chil- dren, Samuel Storms being the eleventh. Of his brothers and sisters the following is a brief record : David, b. June 17, 1804, d. in 1846; Abiathar, b. March 9, 1806, left home in 1826, and never was heard from; William Isaac, b. December 25, 1808, m. at Wiscasset, Me., Sophia Lambert, and d. at Braintree in 1872; George Washington, b. April 23, 1811, m. Julina A. Coolidge, of Cambridge, Mass., and d. in February, 1900; Henry, b. October 18, 1813, d. very young; Pamelia Ann, b. January 4, 1815, m. Eben Eaton, of Boston, and d. in 1900; Alonzo (twin), b. March II, 1817, m. Mrs. Lucy Ann Hobart, of Salem, Mass., and d. in Chelsea, Mass., December 16, 1843; Alansing (twin), b. March 11, 1817, m. Laura Kendrick, of Lyme, N. H., and d. in October, 1868; Louisa, b. May 4, 1820, m. R. H. Macy, of New York City, and d. in January, 1888; Elizabeth, b, in 1822, d. in
