She lived to be over ninety-two years of age, and died November 19, 1847, having survived her husband inearly thirty-five years. Samuel Fowler, shipwright, became a ship-owner, engaged in trade with the West Indies, and is called on the records "merchant."

Captain Samuel Page, the oldest son of Colonel Jeremiah, married Rebecca, daughter of that William Putnam who went to Sterling, Mass, and he came . down from Porter's Plains to become one of the first and leading citizens of New Mills.

Simon Pinder (sometimes Pindar, Pendar) was of the same age as Samuel Fowler, and came also from Ipswich. He married here Mehitable Dutch, and probably built the old house on Fox Hill, in which he lived and died, on the site of which is the new house of Mr. Dennett's. He was engaged in the fishing business and also kept a store near his house. He died July 4, 1813. An older house than his, by the way, on Fox Hill is the " Fairfield House," so called for Samuel Fairfield, who married Anna, a daughter of Colonel Hutchinson, and died November 26, 1810, aged sixty-two.

Aaron Cheever, some seven years older than Fow- ler and Pindar, was a blacksmith. He came early to I New Mills from Newburyport.

Nathaniel Putnam was a son of Archelaus aud a brother of Samuel Fowler's wife.

Moses Black, a full generation younger thau those just mentioned, was born in Haverhill in 1779, and came here at the close of the last century. He was a " wool-puller," and established a prosperous busi- ness, was known as "Major Moses," and was the founder of the Black family, than which few in town have been more prominent and influential.

Nathaniel Putnam had a large family, among whom were Nathaniel, known as "Cap'n Nat," Me- hitable and Phebe. Aaron Cheever had two sons, both sea-captains,-Thomas and William. Simon Pinder had seven or eight children, among whom were Samuel, Hitty, Hannah and Sally. Jere. Put- nam, not previously mentioned, was the father of two other sea-captains, "Captain Jerry " and "Cap- tain Tom."

Captain Nathaniel Putnam married Hannah Pin- dar ; Samuel Pindar married Mehitable Putnam ; Moses Black married Phebe Putnam. Captain Thomas Cheever married Sally Pindar; William Cheever married Betsey Waters, and at his death she became the third wife of Captain Nathaniel. Hitty Pindar became the wife of "Captain Jerry" Put- nam.

One of Hannah Pindar Putnam's children, Na- thaniel, married a daughter of "Captain Tom " Put- nam, and subsequently moved to New York ; and one of Betsey Waters (Cheever) Putnam's children, Abby, was married to a son of Captain Tom's, Cap- tain Albert. Samuel Pindar lived in the "Mead House" on Endicott Street-a part of his father's estate-and worked at times for Major Black; he

died in 1838, was the only son who had a family here, and the removal of his own sons leaves no one now to represent the family name. A link between the Pindars and Pages was the marriage of a daugh- ter of John Pindar, of Beverly, son of Simon, to Cap- tain Samuel Page's oldest son, Jeremiah.

"Captain Tom " Cheever and his wife, Sally Pin- dar, lived with his brother, William, in that large house on Water Street which has fallen to such decay that the roof is tumbling in. Captain Thomas sailed forty years for Captain Joseph Peabody, of Salem. Captain William died at Caleutta when but thirty- two years old, and left no children to grow up; his widow re-married as noted. Of Captain Thomas's children, two daughters became wives of Dr. Eben- ezer. Hunt ; William and his wife, Elizabeth, daugh - ter of Captain Eben Putnam, live at Staten Island, N. Y .; and George, Miss Hannah P. and Mary P., widow of William, son of Major Moses Black, live here.

Captain Jerry Putnam, who married Hitty Pindar, lived in the house which he built, now owned by Charles Warren; he was of the fraternity of sea- captains, lived to be about seventy, and his oldest daughter, Mehitable, married into another family, not yet mentioned, well savored with salt-the John- sons. The Johnson home was a small house which stood near Dr. Frost's residence. The father, Wil- liam, and three sons, William, Henry and Thomas, were all sea-captains. The son William lived in Salem; Thomas lived in the house next north of Charles Warren's, and of his children, Thomas W., of Salem, is the secretary of the Holyoke Insurance Company, and George was lost at sea, leaving two boys now in our schools. It was Captain Henry Johnson who married Captain Jerry's daughter; he first went to sea when twelve years old as cabin-boy for Captain Tom Cheever, and after he gave up the sea, settled down ou his father-in-law's place. His son, the late James A. Johnson, was the last to fol- low the traditional ocenpation of the family.

The family trees of the Pages and Fowlers inter- twine in various ways. Samuel Fowler, the young man who came from Ipswich, had four children to grow up. Colonel Jeremiah Page was twice married, and his eldest son, Captain Samuel, was much older than the children of the second wife. It is not, strange, therefore, that while Samuel Fowler's son, Samuel, married Captain Samuel Page's daughter, Clarissa, that the younger son, John Fowler, should have married Captain Samuel's half sister, Martha, and that Martha's brother, John, should have mar- ried Mary, a sister to Samuel and John Fowler. Samuel Fowler, Jr., born in 1776 and died in 1859, lived in the square brick house on the corner of Lib- erty and High Streets, and carried on an extensive milling and tanning business about Liberty Bridge. His tan yard, which remained in the family until a few years ago, is one of the longest established in

the country. Of his children three sons survive, -- Deacon S. P. Fowler, whose life runs parallel with the century, and of whom a sketch follows this article, Henry and Augustus. A daughter, Rebecca, married Aaron Eveleth ; another, Sally Page, James D. Black, a son of Major Moses. The latter and Miss Maria L. are the surviving daughters. John Fowler built the Bates house near the iron foundry, from whom it passed to two sea captains, Captain Edward Richard- son and Captain Stephen Brown, and from them to John Bates, its present venerable owner. John Fow- ler's oldest son, " master mariner," died in the Gulf of Mexico iu 1840; another, Jeremiah, was one of the pioneers of California, established the first diary in San Francisco, is still living, a successful old man, in Placer County, that State, and within a few years his family has re-allied itself to Danvers, through the marriage of one of his sons to a daughter of the late Captain Andrew M. Putnam.

John Page and his wife, Mary Fowler, lived in his father's homestead at the Plains. He saw the growth of the Plains village from almost nothing to the business centre of the town, and contributed to this progress. The manner in which he carried on his father's business of brick-making will be noticed when that industry is spoken of. He was an hon- ored and representative citizen of the town. His widow long survived him, and died, lacking a month of ninety years. Like her mother, Sarah Putnam, she was distinguished in her youth for the fine per- sonal appearance, which she retained in a remarkable degree in her old age; she was of more than ordinary intelligence, and read extensively to the latest period of her life. The connection between Major Black's family and the Fowlers has been noticed. A direct Black-Page alliance was made by the marriage of the Major's son, Moses, Jr., to Harriet N., daughter of John aud Mary Page. Mrs. Black and four sisters, Mrs. Hunt, Mrs. Edgerton, Mrs. Weston and Miss A. L. Page are the surviving children of John Page. It is nnpleasant to know that in the male line this name, which has been so conspicuous in our history, is here extinct.

Beside the children of Major Moses Black already mentioned were Mrs. Sarah L. Holroyd, Mrs. Mary O. Smith, Archelus P. and Joseph S. The latter was a son-in-law of Moses Putnam, and his partner; he died in 1861. William, Moses, James D. and Joseph S. Black were, each in his peculiar way, prominent and leading citizens. James D., the only surviving son, who lives at Harvard, Mass., has furnished the writer with some interesting reminiscences which have been used in the sketch of the schools.

These families here mentioned by no means in- cluded all of the " first families " of New Mills. There were Captain Crowningshield, and later Captain Ben Porter, at the Read mansion, Captain Israel Endicott and other Endicotts, Caleb Oakes, Major Joseph Stearns, Deacon Benjamin Kent, ship builder, Josiah

Gray, Captain Jacob Perry, the Webbs and so on. Much might be written of them were there plenty of space and time. Some will be mentioned again in connection with brick-making and other industries, and other representative names than those already mentioned will appear in the sketch of the local church, the Baptist, in the account of the anti-slavery excitement, and especially in the list of the company formed during the war of 1812, an account of which here immediately follows.

In the summer of 1814 nearly sixty men, mostly of New Mills -- the solid men of the place in more senses than one, who were exempt from service-voluntarily associated themselves into an independent company of defence. They met in the school-house July 16th, organized by the choice of Captain Samuel Page as moderator, and Captain Thomas Putnam, clerk, and passed, among others, these votes :

" Voted, That the Alarm post be the front yard of Capt. Saml. Page's honse. Voted, That the company meet at their Alarm Post on Saturday next at 4 o'clock P. M., well equipped, including Knapsack, ete.

" Voted, That as we have pledged ourselves on the points of Honor to be Always Ready and willing to obey the commanding officer of said company, therefore any member who does not at all times (when ordered) attend at the Alarm Post in good season and well armed and equipped shall be liable to be reprimanded for each neglect by the commanding officer."

Of the personnel and appearance of this company fortunately an interesting sketch has been written by Deacon Fowler. Here were men whose age had added breadth to shoulders and rotundity to forms, men who held commissions in the Revolution, shipmasters who had visited foreign climes, skippers and hook-and-

line men ; shipwrights, wealthy shoe manufacturers, men who first pressed bricks by machinery and found a mint in the clay-pit; tanners, merchants, farmers, artisans, officers of the town, county, church, State, physicians, and-enough ! Truly a company extra- ordinary in its make-up. They marched, a little stiff in the knee-joints, from their Captain's down to the woods in the lane (River Street) for practice in firing, till "The Girl I Left Behind Me " quickened their energies and warmed them up. Amid generous plaudits it is to be presumed the veterans moved on with taciturn dignity. The young men smiled, but only some sour Federalist growled,“ There goes the old ring- bone company." The weapons were of every sort- the King's arm, good for a charge of ten fingers, two balls and five buck-shot ; the long heavy. ducking gun, requiring liberal allowance of ammunition ; the large-calibre " refugee." The firing by platoons was somewhat theoretical-there was too much individu- ality about it. Blank cartridges being used there was little danger in front. Not so in the ranks, for from the vents of the old firelocks a generous discharge of powder was at each shot directed towards the exposed ear of the man on the right, until the word was passed down, " Turn up your guns when you fire." At one of the numerous false alarms that the British were landing at Salem, the company marched at midnight as far as Gardner's farm. It was noticed that they were divided somewhat peculiarly. The well-fed, heavy, short-legged and short-winded men held the rear, under the lieutenant, while the front rank, com- posed of the leaner and longer-legged, advanced faster under the captain. The people of Salem were in constant fear of naval attack, and people inland were so alert that it is said a shot from a battery, alarmed by some harmless fishermen, caused quick commotion to the extreme limits of New Hampshire. The escape of the "Constitution" from English ships into Marblehead harbor was witnessed by Danvers men from Folly Hill. Earthworks, mounting two iron four- pounders, were thrown up at Water's River, and several prize vessels laid off the ship-yards during the war. The last survivor of the New Mills minute-men was Jonas Warren.

A school-boy of sixty years ago recalls that then Capt. Samuel Page was the leading merchant, and that his mercantile business was not confined to coast- ing, but foreign goods were largely imported. His fine mansion, still standing, was regarded as the most aristocratic residence of the village. He had years before erected several large warehouses to accommo- date his business.

Capt. Nat Putnam and Capt. Tom Cheever were partners in store-keeping in the brick building until recently occupied by Aaron Warren. Capt. Nat built as his residence the large brick building oppo- site, known as the Bass River House, and a very fine residence it must have been in those days. After Capt. Page's death, Putnam and Cheever occasion-

ally nsed the storehouses, and so also Major Black, to store sheeps' pelts. Into one of them a cargo of smuggled rum was surreptitiously unloaded in the dead of night. Though a blacksmith, who had to be aroused to mend the broken cann-hooks, was let into the secret, the vessel got away before daylight, and nothing was for a long time known of the close prox- imity of so much exhilarating fluid. But the stuff could not be sold, and remained an elephant in somebody's hands until long after its advent some- body else " peached," and a long line of government trucks entered the village and confiscated the whole stock.

The following list of the earliest Danversport vessels was made by Mr. Crowley, of the Salem Custom_ House, at the writer's request. The date is that of register. The owner's name follows the name of the vessel.

One of Samuel Page's partners in the ship " Put- nam " was the merchant, Abel Lawrence, and her master was Nathaniel Bowditch.

The sturdy ship-wrights at New Mills helped out their country in the times that tried men's souls. Beside the smaller craft, three fine ships,-the " Grand Turk," the "Jupiter," the "Harlequin," -- were built here during the Revolution. Before the war, Pindar, Kent and Fowler took a contract to build a three hundred and fifty ton ship for a London house. Capt. John Lee was sent from England to superintend her building. £ Impending hostilities prevented the owners from rigging and fitting her, and as long as she remained on the stocks the build- ers could not, according to contract, demand their pay. Capt. Lee refused to allow her to be launched, but all the carpenters mustered one night and slid

her into the water. The builders might better have thrown up the bargain and make the most of the ship, but they chose to bring a fruitless suit against the American agent of the Englishmen, and in the meantime the good ship, utterly uncared for, floating with the tides, rotted in the river.

Old newspapers which contain "arrivals" at the "Port of Danvers " give an insight into the amount and character of the business here transacted. A few sample entries during the summer of 1848 are here given, --

" June 2d .-- Arr. sch. ' Albert,' with frame of Baptist Meeting House. "3d .-- Arr. sch. 'Henry Chase,' corn and flour, to J. Warren.

" Atlı .- Arr. sch. 'New Packet,' lumber, to J. W. Roberts.

"5tlı .- Arr. sch. ' Franklin,' Immber, to Asa Sawyer, Jr.

" 7th .- Sld. sch. 'Franklin.'

"Sth .- Sld. sch. ' Aurora."

"9thı .- Sld. sch. 'New Packet.'

" 11th .- Arr. sch. 'Pilgrim,' corn, to D. Richards.

"20th .- Sld. sch. " Minor,' bricks, from Nathan Tapley.

" 22d .- Arr. Sloop ' Lady Temperance,' stone, to M. Black.

"27th .- Arr. Brig 'Ellen,' corn, to D. Richards. Schs. 'Franklin ' with lumber, to A. Sawyer, Jr. ; ' Regulator,' wood and eleepers, to E. R. R.

"30th .- Arr. schs. 'Otter,' lime, to A. W. Warren & Co .; 'Henry,' lumber, to Calvin Putnam."

From April 1 to November 30, 1848, there were 172 arrivals including 58 cargoes of lumber, 31 wood and bark, 43 flour and grain, 17 lime, 3 molasses, 2 salt, 4 coal, 12 in ballast, 2 unknown. Seventeen vessels loaded for shipment to other ports, two car- goes being sent to the coast of Africa. It is said that the first cargo of coal ever landed here was owned by Parker Brown, but nearly as early a ven- ture in this new combustible was that of J. W. Ropes. His advertisement thus appeared in August, 1849 .-

" Coal.

" Now landed at Black's wharf, and for sale by the subscriber, a cargo of very superior anthracite coal which will be sold at the wbarf or de- livered as cheap as can be purchased in Salem.

The Legislature authorized the town to put down channel poles in the rivers in 1844. Recently the draw-bridges at Beverly were widened to accommo- date larger coal vessels than could otherwise come to Danversport. Calvin Putnam established the present extensive lumber business, on the site of Deacon Kent's ship-yard, about thirty-five years ago.

HISTORY OF ESSEX COUNTY, MASSACHUSETTS.

THE TAPLEYS AND TAPLEYVILLE. - About the first of this century an old man was driving a heavy load of oak ship-timber, along one of the roads in the western part of the town. There had recently been a very heavy fall of snow, and the roads were so full that turning out was a matter of great difficulty. Suddenly out of the drifts there appeared an approach- ing sleigh, and behind the driver sat the magnate of whom something has been said, "King" Hooper. " Turn out," cried Hooper. "Can't do it, load's too heavy," said the old man, " let your man take one of these shovels and we'll soon make room." "No, half the road's mine, and I'll wait here till I get it." "All right" was the complacent reply, and slipping out the pin he went back home with his oxen, leaving the load of logs effectually blocking the narrow path. This was Gilbert or, as it more often appears "Gil- bord " Tapley, the ancestor of the numerous family of that name in Danvers, many of whom have borne prominent and honorable parts in the quiet annals of the town. He was the brother of John Tapley, from whom Tapley's Broook, in Peabody, derived its name. Another brother located in Maine. Gilbord came up to Salem Village and bought, in August, 1747, of Joseph Sibley, a farm of sixty-seven acres, bounded by Amos Buxton, Joshua Swinerton and others, the river-meadows, and a "way " now called Buxton's Lane. His dwelling on this farm was standing until within thirty to forty years on the Andover turnpike, a few rods sonth of the Win. Goodale place. He was married three times; first, to Phebe, daughter of John, and sister to Dr. Amos Putnam ; second, to Mary, widow of Nathaniel Smith; third, to Mrs. Sarah Farrington. Phebe was the mother of Amos, Daniel, Phebe, Joseph, Aaron, Asa, Elijah; Mary was the mother of Sally, eight children in all. Through only two of these was the name preserved here, Amos and Asa. Of the daughters, Phebe married Wm. Good- ale, of Hog Hill; Sally, Porter Putnam, Of the other sons, Daniel married Mary Tarbell ; Joseph went to Lynnfield and left very numerous descendants ; and Elijah established a family at Wilton, N. H. Amos Tapley's home was in near neighborhood to his father's, the present Joel Kimball place. His wife was Hannah, daughter of John Preston, who lived where George H. Peabody does now, not far away. They were the parents of twelve children, seven sons. Of the sons,-David, Amos, Moses, Aaron, Daniel, Philip and Rufus,-Moses and Daniel were among the pioneers of Indiana; Amos went to Lynn and was the father of Amos P. Tapley, one of the most respected citizens of that city ; Philip died at sea, young ; and upon David, Aaron and Rufus depended their father's branch of the family name at home. David's son Alvin was the father of Joseph A. Tap- ley, of Danversport. Aaron lived close by his father, on the James Goodale place, and left no son. Rufus took his father's home, and later moved next south of the First Church ; three of his children went to Saco,

Me., of whom Rufus P. was for seven years a judge of Maine Supreme Court; none of the children are left here. Thus the only lineal male representatives of Gilbord's son Amos, now in town, are Joseph A. Tap- ley and his sons.

Now of Gilbord's son Asa. It was said that Gil- bord's second wife was the Widow Smith ; she brought three daughters into the family, two of whom quite conveniently became wives of two of the sons, while a third, Ruth, married Matthew Putnam, and thence- forth presided over the old Nourse witchcraft home- stead, and became next neighbor to her sister Eliza- beth. For it was Elizabeth Smith whom Asa Tapley married, and their home was the old house which was sold to the late Elisha Hyde, and until within a few years stood on the street which bears that man's name. Asa came to own a great deal of land in that neigh- borhood. His children were Daniel, Asa, Betsey, Jobn, Gilbert, Sally, Nathan, Perley, Jesse, Mary. Daniel lived first in the brick house which was the old home of Dr. Amos Putnam, near Felton's Corner ; Nathan and Asa were brick-makers, the former liv- ing first in the house which he built, now occupied by his son-in-law, William H. Walcott; Asa in the house next south ; while the house of Hix Richards, who married their sister Betsey, completed the trio of adjoining Tapley houses. The son John settled in Dover, N. H. Gilbert and Jesse established them- selves near their father's home ; the former in the old Tarbell house, which stood on the corner of Hyde and Pine Streets, where he made shoes and money, the latter at the other end of Hyde, on Collins Street. Perley lived and died in the house into which Gilbert afterwards moved and died, on the corner of Pine and Holten Streets. Looking back at the character and standing which these sons who remained in Dan- vers maintained, it is using a very moderate express- ion to speak of them as a remarkable family. Some of them died wealthy, all respected. None now sur- vive. Gilbert reached the greatest age, eighty-five, and was the last survivor, his death occurring Octo- ber 10, 1878.

Perley Tapley was a famous mover of buildings, and many are the feats which he and his long team of oxen accomplished in this direction. About 1843 he moved a building in which Matthew Hooper had manufactured boxes, near Felton's Corner, to the brook at " Hadlock's Bridge," and in it Perley and Gilbert Tapley began the manufacture of carpets. This building was burned in June, 1845, and another was immediately built. Gilbert Tapley carried on the business alone from 1847 to 1864, when the Dan- vers Carpet Company was formed. For many years the industry thus established gave employment to many people. In 1876 there were about one hundred employees, who turned out one hundred and fifty thousand yards of ingrain carpets.
