education in the schools of his native town, and on the organization of the high school in 1845, was one of the early members ; also at- tended a private school in Warren, Massachu- setts. On leaving school he entered the count- ing room of his father and brother, then con- ducting the largest shoe manufacturing estab- lishment in the region, and at the age of twen- ty-one was admitted a member of the firm, Thomas Emerson & Sons, and at the death of Thomas Emerson, senior, changed to Thomas Emerson's Sons, and so continued until his re- tirement a few years before his death, which occurred April 12, 1906. Notwithstanding the engrossing cares of an extensive private busi- ness, Captain Emerson always found time for the exercise of a broad and progressive public spirit, and during the last fifty years was prominently identified with nearly every move- ment and enterprise designed to promote the improvement and development of the town. He was a leading spirit in the organization of the still famous corps, the Richardson Light Guard, now Company A, Sixth Regiment, in 1851, and thrice was chosen commander of the company, for three different periods of service. He was town treasurer twenty-eight years, clerk of the First Parish of the Congre- gational Church of Wakefield twenty-five years, second president of the Wakefield Sav- ings Bank, president of the Board of Trade, director of the National Bank and of the South Reading Mechanics' and Agricultural Institu- tion, one of the organizers and director in the Wakefield Real Estate and Building Associa- tion, member of the Citizens' .Gas Light Com- pany, Water Committee, and formerly a mem- ber of the Old Yale Engine Company. He was a member of Souhegan Lodge, I. O. O. F., and treasurer of the same many years, and of Wyoming Lodge, A. F. and A. M. One of the organizers and charter members of Wakefield Home for Aged Women. In poli- tics he was a Republican.

Captain Emerson was a representative citi- zen of the best type, deeply imbued with the municipal spirit or local patriotism, which has made the towns of New England so important a factor in working out the problems and tri- umphs of American civilization. In the intro- duction of water, gas and electricity through the town he had a prominent part, and also in the acquisition of the land bordering on Lake Quannapowitt for a public park, in the change of the town's name from South Reading to Wakefield and treasurer of the general com- mittee of the celebration of the quarter millen- nial anniversary of the town, and was co-

worker and counselor with the late Cyrus Wakefield, senior, in his far-reaching plans for the beautifying and development of the town. He was a generous giver to good causes, and his private benefactions were nu- merous, though in many cases known only to the recipients. He was a man of cheerful, happy disposition, of ready wit, and always had a smile and kind word for all. As one friend expressed it he had been all his life "smoothing things out."

At a notable "Commemorative Gathering" of the Congregational church and First Parish, held in 1887, Captain Emerson was called up- on to respond to the following toast: "The Emerson Family-numerous, respected and influential, but especially noted for its minis- ters and military men, among whom may be named Rev. Joseph Emerson of Mendon, Rev. Dr. Brown Emerson of Salem, Rev. Reuben Emerson of South Reading, Rev. Alfred Em- erson of Lancaster, and Rev. Thomas A. Em- erson of Braintree; Captain Thomas Emerson of Revolutionary fame, and Captain Thomas Emerson, whose form and voice have been so often seen and heard in this place, and who, full of years, has lately passed to his rest."

Wallace, a former pastor, and the interment was in the family plot in Lakeside cemetery.

1840, daughter of Joseph Walton and Sarah (Blodgett) Tuttle. (See sketch of Tuttle family ).

TUTTLE John Tuttle, immigrant ances- tor of the Tuttle family of New Hampshire, was born in Eng- land, in 1618. The English spelling is Tuthill and Tothill, but in this line the American fam- ilies since the first few generations have spelt the surname Tuttle. There is good reason to believe that the American family springs from the old Devonshire family, England, the coat- of-arms of which is : Az. on a bend ar. cotised or, a lion passant sable. The crest: On a mount vert a Cornish chough proper, in its beak a branch of olive, fructed, or.

John, Richard and William Tuttle, with their families, all came in the ship "Planter," in 1635, to New England. William settled in New Haven, Richard in Boston, and John in Ipswich. What connection these three brothers were to John Tuttle of Dover, New Hamp- shire, who came over probably a few years earlier, is unknown.

John Tuttle signed the protest of 1640 against uniting the little republic at Dover with the Massachusetts Bay Colony. His home was then on the east side of Dover Neck, the river on the east, the lot of Thomas Bearde on the south, and the Great High street on the west. It was about forty rods south-southeast of the First Church, now or lately owned by Samuel Tuttle. This place has been longer than any other in Dover in the hands of the same family. Tuttle died intestate 1663, in May or June. His wife Dorothy was admin- istratrix, making her first return June 30, 1663. Children: I. Daughter, married Cap- tain Philip Cromwell. 2. Thomas, accident- ally killed when a young lad by falling from a tree. 3. John, born 1646; died June, 1720, mentioned below. 4. Dorothy, married Cap- tain Samuel Tebbets, grandson of the pioneer settler, Henry Tebbets.

(II) Judge John Tuttle, son of John Tuttle (I), was a man of great distinction in both civil and military life. He filled every office in the gift of the people of Dover. He was appointed in 1695 judge of their Majesties court of common pleas under the administra- tion of Lieutenant Governor Usher. He was selectman of Dover 1686, 1687 and 1688; town clerk 1694 to 1717 inclusive; town treas- urer 1705 and many other years; member of the provincial assembly 1698, 1699, 1705, 1706, and 1707; one of the six commissioners

sent from Dover to the convention of 1689 to meet the commissioners of other towns in the province "to confer about and resolve up- on a method of Government within this prov- ince." He was also a leader in the Dover church. He was at the head of the military forces of the town in 1689, and later and for ten years was almost constantly scouting and hunting for Indians, performing highly dan- gerous and very arduous military duty. He resided on the west side of Dover Neck. His house was near the site of the residence now or late of Alonzo Pinkman, and his land reached from the road to Back River, and in- cluded what has since then been called Cap- tain's Hill in his honor. He gave the home- stead to his son Ebenezer, who sold it in 1738 to Judge Millet. Three generations of the fam- ily are buried in the old Tuttle burial ground on the east side of the homestead, next to the road. He died June, 1720, leaving a large estate. He married Mary -, who sur- vived him, and was his executor. Children: I. Mary, married John Wallingford. 2. Thomas, born April 4, 1674; died in Bay of Campeachy, April 26, 1699. 3.
