A road was laid out by his farm and from the Rutland road to the country road, Febru- ary 14, 1733-34. He bought his homestead March 7, 1722-23, but the deed was not acknowledged until May 12, 1726, from Elisha Bruce, of Marlborough, Massachu- setts, in the eastern part of Worcester, thirty- seven acres adjoining land of Ephraim Curtis on the county road to James Taylor's farm. He probably moved in 1728 to a farm contain- ing sixty-eight acres that he bought April 17, 1728, on North Pond brook, land laid out to Isaac Miller, but purchased of James Gleason, of Marlborough. In 1731 he became a propri- etor of the town, buying the right ("tens," they were called ten-acre rights) of Palmer Goulding. But he gave a farm of fifty-five acres of this land near Panson's pond to his "well-beloved son, John Pibles" "for love and affection," dated February 28, 1731-32. A plan of this farm is recorded in the Worces- ter deeds. John's farm was north of Robert's and was bounded by common land and land of John Waldo. The farm was sold to Cor- nelius Waldo in 1739 when Pebbles was pre- paring to leave town. He was a blacksmith by trade and evidently prosperous. He bought thirty acres of the south part of the original right of Ephraim Curtis, September II, 1727; forty-seven acres of John Hubbard, of Wor- cester, undivided land and a four acre house lot granted to Isaac Wheeler, deed dated March 13, 1727-28. He also bought the twenty acre house lot granted to William Pain, of Boston, from James Dunlap, of Canter- bury, Connecticut, November, 1736, the land being on the road to Lake Quinsigamond. His son John deeded his farm back to his father in 1739-40 for some reason, but April 18, 1741, Robert Pebbles, then of Lisbon (now Pelham, Massachusetts), proprietor, deeded this place, fifty-five acres on both sides of North Pond brook, back to his son John.
Robert Pebbles and James Thornton, of Worcester, were the founders of Pelham, Massachusetts. These two Scotchmen bought a tract of land three and a half miles wide by seven and three-quarters in length, the present site of Pelham, containing sixteen thousand six hundred and eighty-six and one- half ยท acres of land, of Colonel Stoddard, of Northampton, Massachusetts. Stoddard bought it of the state of Connecticut, the title of which was given to Connecticut by Massa- chusetts though jurisdiction was retained. The lands were called Equivalent Lands because they were given to compensate Connecticut for
the towns of Woodstock, Somers, Enfield and Suffield, then held by Massachusetts, despite the fact that by some mistake the grants had been made south of what was afterward fixed as the Massachusetts line. The two purchas- ers agreed to settle forty families within two years. They were all ready, however, for the deed to the proprietors was made February, 1738-39, naming the settlers. It was called the Lisbon, Lisborn or Lysburn propriety and the first five meetings were held in Worcester, the fifth April 10, 1740. The sixth meeting was the first in the new settlement, held Au- gust 6, 1740. He was on the committee May 19, 174I, to raise the new meeting house, and November 3, 1741, when they began to have service he was appointed to keep the minister at twelve shillings a week. He led the move- ment to incorporate as a town and the bill was signed by the governor, January 15, 1742; Robert Pebbles was directed to call the first town meeting for April 1, 1743, and a fac- simile of this call drawn and signed by him is reproduced in the Pelham town history. Lis- burn, or New Lisborn, the name of the pro- priety, was changed to Pelham. Lisborn is the name of a town on the river Lagan in Antrim county, Ireland. At the first town meeting he was elected selectman and re-elect- ed in 1744, perhaps served later. He protested against the meeting of 1751. He was moder- ator in 1744. The town took steps May 26, 1743, to call a minister and Robert was on the committee for that purpose. Rev. Robert Abercrombie was settled, but in 1747 trouble had developed over the minister. Mr. Pebbles continued to board the ministers; in 1755 he was paid for ten weeks board and for enter- taining the presbytery. In 1756 for keep of minister and horse five weeks and next seven- teen weeks. He had three shares in each divi- sion and became a large land-owner. He lived on lot sixteen of the first division. He died about 1760. As late as 1757-59 his son was called "Jr."
He married Sarah Children: I. John, mentioned below. 2. Patrick, mentioned below. 3. James, mentioned below. 4. Sarah, born in Worcester, May 29, 1719, married, February 10, 1755, at Pelham, Alexander Mc- Culloch. 5. Mary, born October 12, 1722, at Worcester, married, April 26, 1757, David Huston. 6.

(II) John Pebbles, son of Robert Pebbles (I), was born about 1715, in Ireland; died in 1756. Married, November 7, 1740, Dorothea Harvey, daughter of Rev. John Harvey, Jr. He had a farm at Worcester near North Pond Brook, but left about the time his father did. He was a school teacher and seems to have lived at Palmer, Brimfield, Granville, Pelham, Massachusetts, and Middlefield, Connecticut, where he died. Administration was granted to John Harvey, of Peterboro, New Hampshire, his father-in-law, September 15, 1756. He had one right at Pequoige, Rutland District (now Barre), sold later to Samuel Reed. He was a proprietor of Worcester in 1732, having three tens or shares, and was chairman for sur- veying lots in the third division of the common land. Two-of his children were baptized by his wife's father at Palmer, Massachusetts: I. John Harvey, born November 9, 1745, bap- tized December 5, 1745; 2. Jean, born Sep- tember 15, 1748. He seems to have married second in Pelham in 1752 (intention May 2), Sarah Conkey, and had children. 3. daughter, born June II, 1754. He was tythingman in 1762, and seems to have been living on his father's homestead through which a road was cut in 1755.
(II) Patrick Pebbles, son of Robert Peb- bles (I), was born in Ireland, about 1710-II. He had a seat in the Old South meeting house, Worcester, and was a field driver there in 1732. He was one of the proprietors of Lis- bon when the first division was made, having a one-sixtieth share. He was the only son who was a proprietor. He drew lot No. 7 in 1739. He signed the application for the first town meeting; went to Hadley to post notice of the first meeting. June 9, 1762, he owned three shares, probably inheriting two from his father. He was town surveyor in 1743, school committeeman in 175I, selectman in 1752, col- lector 1757. In 1766 he and John Pebbles occupied pew No. 2. He was a blacksmith by trade, doubtless succeeding his father at Pel- ham. He married (first) Frances ---; and (second), March 8, 1757, at Pelham, Margaret Taylor. Children: I.

(III) James Pebbles, son of James Peb- bles (2), or one of the above, was born (ac- cording to the town records of Orford, New Hampshire), at Pelham. He died, according to the history of Plymouth, New Hampshire, at a very advanced age in 1860, and was undoubt- edly about a hundred years old. He settled in the town of New Salem, Massachusetts, ad- joining Pelham. When he was a soldier in the Revolution his residence was given as Chesterfield, Massachusetts, an adjacent town, but he may have lived in Pelham or New Salem, and served for Chesterfield. His name is spelled Pibbels and he was in Captain Ben- jamin Honney's company, Colonel Samuel Brewer's regiment, which marched to Ticon- deroga to reinforce the northern army and served under General Stark in the battle of Bennington.

(V) Riley Pebbles, son of John Pebbles (4), was born in Orford, New Hampshire, in the section called Indian Pond, February 25, [823. His father being in moderate circum- stances, he was bound out when fourteen years old to a farmer in Orford and he worked Faithfully until he came of age and terminated is long apprenticeship. He attended the dis- rict schools but his educational advantages vere nominal. He removed to Boston, March , 1846, and in 1851, six years later, came to Natick, where he has resided ever since. He earned the shoemaker's trade and on a capital of eight hundred dollars he began, March I, 853, his career as a manufacturer of boots nd shoes. His business prospered and he radually evolved a plant that produced two undred and ninety thousand pairs of shoes early, the annual sales amounting to about alf a million dollars. For many years he as one of the leading manufacturers of Tatick. He employed several hundred men, ept ten traveling salesmen on the road and
kept pace with the progress in methods of manufacture. He was always ready to try new labor-saving machinery. He had built for his factory the first Beam sole-cutting machine that proved successful in the work and was used many years. He made and patented im- provements in this machine and it is now the standard machine used to cut soles by dies from the whole side of leather. He invented many improvements in shoe machinery. He was the pioneer in the business of selling out- soles, half-soles and taps to cobblers. He had some reverses, twice losing his factory by fire. When his factory was burned the first time, in 1873, he cleared away the debris with a gang of seventy-five men while the fire still smould- ered, opened the safe, and made out his state- ment of losses for the insurance adjusters. After a thorough investigation his figures were accepted without change and he was told by the adjusters that his was the most exact, accurate and correct account ever submitted to them. He rebuilt his factory. After his sec- ond fire he repaired the damaged building and again resumed business. Mr. Pebbles retired from the manufacturing business and engaged in jobbing having an office in his factory in Natick and another at his old location on Lin- coln street, Boston. A few years ago he began in the retail business in his factory, and after retiring from the wholesale business he opened a retail store on Middlesex avenue, Natick, re- moving thence after a few years to his present location on Main street, in Walcott Block. He incorporated this business under the name of the Riley Pebbles Boot & Shoe Company, in 1906; officers: Riley Pebbles, president ; Wil- liam H. Quinlan, secretary and treasurer ; William K. Knowlton, director. From time to time in recent years Mr. Pebbles has invested extensively in the stock of southern cotton mill corporations. He now owns large blocks of stock in the Cannon Manufacturing Com- pany of Concord, North Carolina ; of the Caba- russ Manufacturing Company of Concord, North Carolina ; of the Gibson Manufacturing Company of Concord, North Carolina; of the Kesler Manufacturing Company of Salisbury, North Carolina; of the Wiscasset Manufac- turing Company of Albermarle, North Caro- lina.
Mr. Pebbles is a Republican in politics, and was member of the sewerage committee and chairman four years during the construction of the sewer system. He was for many years an active member of the cemetery committee. Mr. Pebbles has been a director of the Natick
968
MIDDLESEX COUNTY.
National Bank since it was organized in 1865. He was one of the incorporators and founders of the Natick Five Cents Savings Bank in 1859 and is still one of its trustees. He is a prominent member of the First Congregational Church, and has been the most liberal contrib- utor to its support. He has served on its parish committee and was chairman of the building committee when the church was erect- ed after the fire in the seventies. The plans were drafted by Mr. Pebbles.
He has traveled extensively, especially through the south, where his chief interests have been centered for the past ten or fifteen years. During a recent trip he was accompa- nied by Judge Henry C. Mulligan, of Natick, and both Mr. Pebbles and he spoke in the pub- lic schools in the southern towns, Mr. Pebbles talking on the future duties of the children and Judge Mulligan comparing the schools of the north and south.
He takes fully as much satisfaction in help- ing others as he has in his own success in life. He has given to a number of young men their opportunity and start in life, and he treasures the letters that some of them have sent him acknowledging their obligation, and ascribing their success in life to his timely assistance. Some one recently wrote of him: "Having been educated in the rough school of life, cramped and handicapped in his early days to such an extent as would have deterred most persons from undertaking any serious enter- prise, he had to make special effort to over- come the obstacles in his path. That he did so, and subsequently achieved a grand success in his business career, was entirely due to his persistent energy and indomitable will. He is a man of strong individuality, and on every line of his rugged features are stamped in indelible characters self reliance, fearlessness and determination. That Mr. Pebbles does and should command the respect and esteem of his fellow citizens none can doubt." He resides in a handsome residence on East Cen- tral street, built in 1871, from his own plans. Now eighty-five years of age Mr. Pebbles is a wonderful man, mentally and physically. His splendid physique shows no impairment while his wide range of reading, his vast fund of statistical information, backed by an unusual mental vigor, render him a formidable antago- nist in debate on any of the vital questions of to-day. He is deeply interested in the cause of education, child labor, temperance and the newer business developments in manufactur- ing.
Mr. Pebbles has been four times married. He married (first) Laura Messenger, who was born in Peru, Vermont. Their only child died at the age of ten months. He married (second) Mary Jane Cummings, of Dunstable, Massachusetts, February 25, 1850. She died July 12, 1850. He married (third) Abigail M. (Knowlton) Bartlett, who died March 20, 1905. He married ( fourth), March 27, 1907, Isadore C. Felch, born May, 1843, daughter of Asa Felch. He has adopted children: Lucy Edith Miriam Hardy, born 1892. Gertrude Clough, born 1896.
Edward White, the immigrant WHITE ancestor, was born in England in 1593 and resided in Cran- brook, county Kent, England, until June, 1635, when he sailed for America in the ship "Abi- gail" of London with his wife Martha, aged thirty-nine, and two children-Mary, aged eight, and Martha, aged ten. He settled in Dor- chester, Massachusetts, and was admitted a freeman May 26, 1647. Savage gives the date as December 7, 1636. There were two other im- migrants of the same name, one settling at Roxbury and the other at Charlestown, or the evidence seems to indicate that there were three Edward Whites. On account of the large number of early settlers of the name of White, no name presents more difficulties to the genealogist. There were three immigrants of the name of John White having numerous descendants in the same locality. Thomas White, of Weymouth, has a large posterity, and the descendants of William White, father of Peregrine, are also numerous.
Edward White's descendants and those of Thomas White, of Weymouth, are found in the same localities in Braintree, Dorchester and vicinity. Children of Edward: I. Martha, born 1625 in England. 2. Mary, born 1627 in England. 3. James, born January 1, 1637, mentioned below. 4. John, born December 15, 1639, married, January II, 1663-64, Mary Swift. 5. Henry, married Mary - and had at Dorchester ten children. 6. Peter, settled in Milton where many of his descendants have resided.
(II) James White, son of James White (I), was born in Dorchester, January I, 1637, and was baptized in 1638 at Dorchester. He died there November II, 1713, aged seventy-six, according to the death record. He married at Dorchester, February 22, 1664-65, Sarah Baker, daughter of Richard Baker, of Dor-

chester. She died October 13, 1688-89, and he married (second) February 13, 1696, Eliz- abeth Withington, daughter of Captain John Withington. She died November 19, 1722. White took the oath of allegiance and fidelity in 1678. Children of James and Sarah White : I. Sarah, born November 8, 1665, died Janu- ary 2, 1665-6. 2. Thankful, born August 18, 1667. 3. Ichabod, born April 26, 1669, died May 12, 1669. 4. John, born June 7, 1670. 5. Experience, born March 2, 1673. 6. Mar- tha, born August 28, 1675. 7. Mary, born 1677, baptized November II, 1677. 8.

John, born February 25, 1709, mentioned below. 3. Sarah, born April 3, 17II. 4. Edward, Jr., born Novem- ber 25, 1712. 5. Abijah, born January 23, 1716-17.
(IV) John White, son of Edward White (3), was born in Dorchester, February 25, 1709. He married, November 16, 1732, Han- nah Maudsley. Children, born at Dorchester : I. John, born October 20, 1733, mentioned below. 2. Hannah, born February I, 1734-35. 3. Sarah, born October 7, 1736. 4. Ebenezer, born September 5, 1739, died November 5, 1740. 5. Ebenezer, born October 4, 1740. 6. Samuel, born April 24, 1742, died June 2, 1742. 7. Patience, born June 1, 1743. 8. Mary, born May 24, 1747. 9. Elizabeth (twin), born September 25, 1752. IO. Anna (twin), born September 25, 1752.
(V) John White, son of John White (4), was born at Dorchester, October 20, 1733. He probably settled at what is now Randolph, Massachusetts. The name of his wife and children have not been found recorded. Lieu- tenant John White, of Barre, and James White, of Barre, both from Randolph, are be- lieved to be his sons.
(VI) James White, son of John White (5). was born in Randolph, Massachusetts, prob- ably about 1780. He married at Barre, Mass- achusetts, November 16, 1780, Abigail Hook- er. Children, born at Barre: 1. John, born January 1, 1782, mentioned below. 2. James, born February 22, 1784. 3. William, born April II, 1785. 4. Luke, born November 12, 1790. 5. Horatio, born February 6, 1793.
(VII) John White, Jr., son of James White (6), was born in Barre, Massachusetts, Janu- ary I, 1782. He was always called Junior on the records, indicating that his uncle John was living also. Lieutenant John White died in Barre, March 5, 1835, aged seventy-four years; his wife also in Barre in February, 1817. The proof is not clear that John, Jr., was not the son of Lieutenant John. No rec- ord of his children has been found, and to support the idea that he was we find that John White, of Barre, conveyed land to John White, Jr., cordwainer, for two hundred and thirty dollars, a farm in the south part of Barre on the Ware river adjoining the farm of Major Jones on the road to Hardwick, April 13, 1813. The name of one child of John White, Sr., is known from the probate records, Ansyl, who died in 1829, and her or his father, John White, signed assent to the appointment of an admin- istrator, July 18, 1829.
