wife. Of this marriage there were two chil- dren - Ada E. and Fred D.

Jacob Stiles was b. at Bridgton, Me., March 31, 1786, and d. at Ebensburg, Cam- bria County, Pa., September 23, 1855. His wife, Olive W., daughter of Ephraim Bryant, Jr., and Hephzibah, was b. at Saco, Me., Feb- ruary 26, 1797, and d. at Stoneham, Me., August 5, 1847. Ephraim Bryant, Jr., was b. in Saco, Me., November 15, 1768. Noah Stiles, father of Jacob, was probably b. at Boxford, Mass., March 4, 1745. On June 16, 1772, he m. Lydia Curtis. Ephraim Stiles, father of Noah, was b. at Boxford, December 27, 1708. He m. Elizabeth Lanksford, No- vember 26, 1741. Timothy, father of Eph- raim, was b. at Boxford, Mass., October I, 1678, and d. December 7, 1751. On March 5, 1701-2, he m. Hannah, daughter of Eph- raim and Hannah (Eames) Foster, of Andover. Hannah Foster was b. May 15, 1684. Robert Stiles, father of Timothy, was b. in England in 1637, and d. July 30, 1690, probably in Boxford, Mass. October 4, 1660, he m. Elizabeth, daughter of John and Anna Frye, of Andover, Mass.

George Franklin Hosmer was educated in the public schools of Sweden, Me., and in his spare time assisted his father in the work of the farm. At the age of seventeen he came to Massachusetts, and entered the employ of George & Brother, sole cutters, of Lynn. He remained with that firm fourteen years. At the end of that time he entered the employ of John B. Alley & Co., of Boston, with whom he remained twelve years. In 1892 he en- gaged in business for himself as cut sole dealer in Boston, and thus continued until 1898. Some years before this he had purchased the estate he now owns and occupies at the corner of Washington and Salem Streets, Woburn, Mass. On first locating here he began a small poultry business. This has since increased until he has now a well-equipped. poultry farm, to the management of which he gives his whole time and attention.

On February 7, 1874, he was married to Laura Caroline Tracy, of Lynn, daughter of Cyrus Mason and Caroline M. (Needham) Tracy. Mr. Tracy was a litterateur and nat-

uralist of more than local reputation. The work, however, by which he will probably be best known and remembered, is his inaugura- tion of the movement for the establishment of a "Free Public Forest" in Lynn. This movement he carried to such proportions as to attract the attention and arouse the interest of people of financial resources and ability, who took up the work and carried it to completion. Their efforts resulted in a large park known as the "Lynn Woods."

Both Mr. and Mrs. Hosmer are members of the Congregational Church. Mr. Hosmer is a Republican in politics, and, though he has never held public office, is actively interested in political affairs. Mr. and Mrs. Hosmer have four children - George L., Edith T., Louise, and Laura - all born in Lynn, Mass.

NOCH BEANE, a leading grocer and provision dealer of Cambridge, was born in Sanford, York County, Me., July 18, 1840, son of Joseph and Mary Ann (Going) Beane. He is of the sixth generation of the family founded by John1 Bean, who settled in Exeter, Mass., as early as 1660, receiving a grant of land on January 21 of the following year, and other grants October 10, 1664, April 1, 1667, and February 21, 1698. John' Bean was a Presbyterian of Scottish parentage, and it is by no means unlikely that he was himself b. in Scotland. He or his parents were among those who sought a home in the New World in order to be free from religious persecution. In 1671 he was one of a committee chosen to run the lines between Exeter and adjoining towns. He took the oath of allegiance November 30, 1677. He was pound keeper in 1680, and he signed the fa- mous New Hampshire petition of 1689-90. He was m. before coming to this country, but there is a tradition that his wife d. on the passage to America. About the year 1660, not long after his arrival, he m. a Scotch-Irish lass, who had come over on the same vessel with him, and whose given name was Margaret. Margaret Bean joined the Hampton Church in 1671. Among those who were dismissed from the Hampton Church September 11, 1698, "in

order to their being incorporated into a church state in Exeter," was "goodwife Bean"; and Margaret Beane was one of the original mem- bers of the church in Exeter, September 21, 1698. Her death preceded that of her hus- band, which took place in 1718, between Janu- ary 24 and February 8. By his first wife John1 Bean had one child- Mary, b. in 1655. By his second wife, Margaret, he had ten chil- dren - John (the eldest, b. in 1661), Henry, Daniel, Samuel, John, Margaret, James, Jer- emy, Elizabeth, and Catherine.

James2 Bean, b. at Exeter, Mass., Decem- ber 17, 1672, d. January 6, 1753. The fam- ily name of his first wife is believed by some to have been Coleman. He m., second, in 1697, Sarah Bradley, who was b. in 1677, and d. July 17, 1738. Not long after her death he m., for his third wife, Mrs. Mary Crosby, a widow, whose maiden name was Mary Prescott. Her first husband, Jabez Coleman, was killed by Indians. Her second husband was Thomas Crosby. James2 Bean's children by his first wife were: John and Edward, both b. in Exe- ter. By his second wife he had Benjamin, Margaret, Joseph, Jeremiah, Samuel, Ca- therine, and Rachel, all b. in Kingston. His third wife, who d. in 1740, bore him no chil- dren. The town of Exeter granted him thirty acres of land February 21, 1698. Later he was an extensive landowner in Kingston. He became a member of the church September 29, 1729, his wife Sarah having been admitted February 6, 1726.

Joseph3 Beane, b. at Kingston, Mass., Oc- tober 17, 1704, d. January 7, 1767. He was a weaver by trade, and an innholder. He m.

He was a member of the church at East Kingston on its organization, October 22, 1739, and his wife Hannah was admitted November 18, 1739.

Joseph4 Beane, the second son of Joseph3 to receive his father's name, was b. at Sanford, Me., September 30, 1742. (For the foregoing we are indebted to the genealogy prepared by the Hon. Josiah H. Drummond, "Genealogy

of John Bean," a record of four generations published in Reports of Reunions of his de- scendants. )

Joseph5 Beane, son of Joseph, 4 was b. at Sanford, Me. He followed farming in his native town during his entire industrial period, and d. January, 1874. He m. Mary Ann Gowen, daughter of Ezekiel and Lovell (Frost) Gowen, of Sanford, Me. She bore him nine children, namely : Horace, Mark, Sarah A., Elizabeth, Enoch, Joseph, George A., Cyn- thia, and Charles E. Horace and Sarah are now deceased. The mother, Mrs. Mary Ann Beane, d. in May, 1852.

Enoch Beane acquired his education in the schools of his native town of Sanford. At the age of eighteen he went to Lawrence, Mass., where he obtained employment, and remained two years. From Lawrence he went to Water- town, and worked for six years, including the period of the Civil War, in the government arsenal. At the end of that time coming to Cambridge, he started a grocery and provision store, which he has since carried on success- fully, the firm name now being Enoch Beane & Co. He has gained an excellent reputation as a capable business man, and is a trustee of the Cambridge Savings Bank. He attends the old Cambridge Baptist Church. In politics he is a Republican. Mr. Beane is much inter- ested in Free Masonry, in which he has attained the thirty-second degree. He also belongs to the I. O. O. F., having for the last forty years been a member of LaFayette Lodge of that order.

Mr. Beane married in 1868 Lucy Abbie Wells, a native of New Gloucester, Me., and a daughter of Eben and Hannah (Burnham) Wells. He has four children - Helen Agnes, Arthur Enoch, Marion, and Charles Henry, all born in Cambridge. Arthur is in Harvard College; Charles Henry and Marion are in the Latin School in Cambridge.

(Morse) Morse, he comes of long lines of Colo- nial ancestry, being a descendant in the sev- enth generation of Anthony Morse, who emi- grated from Marlboro, Wiltshire, England, and settled at Newbury, Massachusetts Bay Colony, in 1635. The direct male line is : Anthony, 1 Benjamin,2 Deacon William, 3 Benjamin, 4 Cap- tain Daniel, 5 Daniel,6 Asa Porter7. Benja- min,2 b. in 1640, m.

Captain Daniel5 Morse, b. in 1745, served as a soldier of the Revolution, being in Cap- tain Samuel Johnson's company in 1777, and in Captain John Abbott's in 1780 at West Point. He m. in 1766 Merriam, daughter of Captain John5 and Merriam (Currier) Hoyt, of West Amesbury, Mass. Her father was a de- scendant in the fifth generation of Sergeant John' Hoyt, an early settler at Salisbury, Mass. In 1791 Captain Daniels Morse removed with his family from Newtown, N. H., to Bridge- water, N. H. His wife d. in November, 1812. He d. in February, 1826. They had eleven children, Daniel,6 b. in 1773, being the fourth child. Daniel6 Morse m. his cousin Sarah, daughter of his father's brother, Benjamin Morse. Her paternal ancestors for the four preceding generations, therefore, were the same as her husband's. She was b. August 8, 1777. Her mother, the wife of Benjamin Morse, was Rachel Webster, daughter of Joseph3 and Ma- ria (Goss) Webster, and a niece of Ebenezer3 Webster, who was the grandfather of the dis- tinguished statesman, Daniel Webster. Mrs. Sarah Morse6 d. January 22, 1834; her hus- band, Daniel Morse, d. May 3, 1861, having outlived her more than a quarter of a century. They had nine children - Betsy, Benjamin, Sarah, the Rev.

Disinclined to spend his life in tilling the rocky soil of the Granite State, Mr. Asa Porter? - Morse, in 1840, at twenty-two years of age, having obtained his education in the public schools near the home of his boyhood, jour- neyed to Boston by the old stage coach line, and found employment as book-keeper for Hayward & Morse, who were engaged in the Provincial and West India trade. Later he embarked in business for himself, exporting goods for plantation use in the West Indies, and subsequently manufacturing staves for ship- ment to Cadiz, Spain, and shooks for the West Indies, employing a number of men. In 1846 he removed to Cambridge, where he continues to make his home, his residence being a comely and commodious dwelling on Magazine Street. Extensively engaged in business as a dealer in real estate and a builder, he has served as a director of the Cambridge Fire Insurance Com- pany for many years, as a director of the Cam- bridgeport National Bank and twenty years its president, as one of the trustees of the Cam- bridge Hospital for thirty years, and as one of the investment committee and also vice-presi- dent of the Cambridgeport Savings Bank.

For sixteen years Mr. Morse was a member of the School Board of Cambridge, and for many years chairman of the High School Com- mittee. In politics he is a Republican. He was Representative to the State Legislature in 1869 and 1873, serving on important com- mittees, declining a second re-election, and in 1879 and 1880 as State Senator, representing the Third Middlesex Senatorial District. Ap- pointed by President Cogswell in 1879 as chair- man of the Joint Committee on Prisons, he rendered valuable service, elsewhere thus de- scribed : "Under the lead of Mr. Morse, a new

system was perfected which proved completely satisfactory, the law of 1879 being acknowl- edged by all familiar with it a superior piece of legislation. So successful was he in bringing about this change, and so hearty and intelli- gent an interest in prison matters did he mani- fest that he was, against his protest, made chairman of the Joint Special Committee on Contract Convict Labor, which in the summer and fall of 1879 investigated that subject. The report of that committee was probably the most exhaustive and valuable ever made in this country upon that topic, and permanently settled many questions which had before been in controversy. During his second term in the Senate, Mr. Morse was again placed at the head of the Committee on Prisons, and was also on the Committee on Education and Ex- penditures." ("One of a Thousand.") His religious affiliations are with the Protestant Episcopal Church. He is a life member of the New England Historic Genealogical Soci- ety, and of the Webster Historical Society, and takes a lively interest in local history and genealogy. At his instance and under his direction was compiled from the original rec- ords by the late Henry Dutch Lord, a memo- rial of the family of Morse, giving an account of the original settlers of this name, and treat- ing particularly of the descendants of Anthony and William Morse, of Newbury, Mass. To this volume of three hundred and eighty pages with supplement of twenty-four (for private distribution only), which was printed at Cam- bridgeport in 1896, we are indebted for most of the foregoing facts.

Mr. Morse was married July 13, 1846, to Dorcas Louisa Short, daughter of Thomas W. and Elizabeth (Wells) Short, of Cambridge- port. Born August 28, 1822, Mrs. Morse died February 24, 1864, in the forty-second year of her age and the nineteenth of her wedded life. She was the mother of three children, namely : Mary Louisa, born Novem- ber 16, 1847; Velma Maria, born January 28, 1851; and Arthur Porter, born August 29, 1858, who died December 20, 1863. Mary Louisa was married October 17, 1872, to Charles W. Jones, president of the New Eng- land National Bank, Boston. Mr. and Mrs.

Jones have two children : Arthur Morse, born November 13, 1875; and Eleanor Hooper, born September 7, 1878.

ALEB CHASE, of the firm of Chase & Sanborn, coffee dealers and wholesale grocers, Broad Street, Boston, came to this city more than forty years ago from Cape Cod, where not a few of the solid men of Boston in earlier and in later times have had their birth and bringing up. Mr. Chase was born at West Harwich, Barn- stable County, Mass., December 11, 1831, son of Job and Phœbe (Winslow) Chase.

A portrait of his father, together with a biographical sketch, appears in the chapter on Harwich written by Josiah Paine, Esq., for the "History of Barnstable County," published by H. W. Blake & Co., New York, 1890. From this we learn that "one Job Chase " (presum- ably a descendant of William Chase, who came to New England in 1630, joined the First Church in Roxbury, the Rev. John Eliot, pastor, and about 1638 went with others to make a new settlement at Yarmouth on the Cape, where he d. in 1659) was a settler in the west part of Harwich soon after the middle of the eighteenth century, that he reared a large family, and lived to be ninety-seven years old. A genealogy of the Chase family living in Fall River and vicinity in 1876, contained in a volume entitled "Fall River and Its Indus- tries," states that William' Chase, of Yar- mouth, had two sons: William,2 ancestor of the Swansea and Somerset Chases; and Benja- min,2 ancestor of the Freetown Chases. Will- iam2 m. Hannah, daughter of Philip Sherman, and their son Joseph3 m. Sarah, daughter of Sampson Sherman. Joseph3 Chase and his wife Sarah were the parents of Job, 4 b. August 21, 1698, who m. in 1718 Patience Bourne (name sometimes spelled Born, Burne, and Bowen). Job+ Chase and his family lived at Swansea, Mass. His son Job,5 b. April 4, 1720, m. Hannah Law July 13, 1743.

Job Chase, Jr., son of the Harwich pioneer, and father of the subject of this sketch, was b. `at the Chase homestead in Harwich, August 8, 1778. He was a merchant and a large

418

NEW ENGLAND LIBRARY OF

owner of fishing vessels. In 1842 he built a wharf. He also built from timber cut on his own land a schooner, the "Job Chase," of eighty-five tons. In his store he kept the first post-office at West Harwich. He served as Selectman and as Representative to the Legis- lature. He was one of the original stock- holders in the old Yarmouth Bank, and was a generous supporter of the Baptist Church at West Harwich. His first wife, Polly El- dridge, d. in 1816, leaving nine children, namely : Hope, who m. Isaiah Baker; Job, Jonathan Sears, Ozias, Whitman, and Ziba, who were all lost at sea (the first four as cap- tains of vessels, and the first three m. men) ; Darius, who m. Annie Merriman, and resided at West Harwich; and Juda E., also of West Harwich, a merchant, who m. Emily Fish. Mr. Chase's second wife, Phœbe Winslow, d. August 25, 1839. Born in 1799, daughter of Jonathan and Hetty (Berry) Winslow, of Har- wich, she was a descendant of Kenelm2 Wins- low, founder of the Winslow family at Cape Cod, he being a son of Governor Edward Winslow's brother Kenelm,' of Marshfield, who came over about 1629. Mrs. Phoebe W. Chase was the mother of seven children - Jo- seph W., Alfred, Mary E., Joshua S. (who d. in childhood), Erastus, Joshua S. (second), Caleb, and a daughter who d. in infancy. Mr. Chase m. for his third wife Eunice Drurey. She d. in 1863, and he d. January 12, 1865. Joseph W. Chase, b. in 1817, m. Rose Kelley, and is a farmer at West Harwich. Alfred m. Azuba Taylor. Mary E. m. Captain George Nickerson, of South Dennis. Erastus, b. in 1826, m. Sarah A. Trevette. He succeeded to his father's mercantile business at West Harwich. Joshua S., b. in 1830, m. Abbie E. Fish. He founded the Union Paste Com- pany, of Boston.

Caleb Chase was educated in his native town, where the district school system, under which active-minded pupils made rapid progress, then prevailed. Leaving school at the age of nine- teen, he became a clerk for his father, who kept a general merchandise store in the village. The experience he there gained in the next few years was of greater value to him than the sal- ary he received. On February 25, 1855, in

his twenty-fourth year, Mr. Chase removed to Boston and engaged as travelling salesman for the wholesale dry-goods house of Anderson, Sargent & Co., and for five and a half years journeyed in the interests of that concern in New England and in the West. The five years directly following he was in the employ of Claflin, Saville & Co., South Market Street, Boston, and in 1866 he, in company with Dan- iel Carr and Henry E. Raymond, established the firm of Carr, Chase & Raymond, wholesale grocers on State Street. In 1871 that firm was dissolved, and succeeded by Chase, Ray- mond & Ayer at 34 Broad Street, and in 1878 was established the present firm of Chase & Sanborn, the leading house of its line of trade in New England, having branch stores in Mon- treal and Chicago.

Mr. Chase has belonged to the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company for twenty-five years, and is one of the trustees thereof. He is a member of Pilgrim Lodge, A. F. & A. M. Liberal in religious faith, he was one of Minot J. Savage's supporters at the Church of the Unity, Boston, and since Dr. Savage's re- moval to New York City he has attended vari- ous churches in Brookline. Mr. Chase was married May 26, 1867, to Miss Salome Bick- ford Boyles, who was born April 21, 1833, eldest daughter of Edward and Caroline (Mc- Clintock) Boyles, of Thomaston, Me.
