JEDEDIAH NEWHALL HOUSE. RAND HOUSE. SARGENT HOUSE.
THE above represents three of the historic houses of Lynn. They stand on Boston street, just east of the corner of Kirtland. And aside from any individual consideration, they are interesting as showing the different styles of architecture prevalent in earlier times. Tastes differed then as well as now ; but it was not common to see these different styles of dwelling side by side.
The gambrel roofed one was known, seventy years ago, as the " Uncle Jed " house, and was then old and shabby. "Uncle Jed," as he was called, was a marked character, and appa- rently quite old as the writer remembers him, as far back as 1816. Ile was energetic and fearless, and in consequence of his recklessness met with many mishaps. It used to be an exaggerated saying that every bone in his body had been broken excepting his neck. He was accustomed to hobble about with a long staff or kind of crutch. But notwithstanding his infirmities, he once caught a huge rattlesnake in the woods, managed to extract his fangs, brought him home alive, and took him about, as evidence of his prowess.
The next house, that with the hipped roof, was at about the same period known as the Rand house. One of the chambers was used as a public hall, was called Massey's hall, and is believed to have been the first public hall in Lynn. It was used for political caucuses, for some of the first meetings of the freemasons, and for various other purposes. The first dancing school was opened there in ISoo. This house was built in 1795.
The house on the right, that with the pitch roof, is the " Sargent house." It was one of the best houses of the time of its erection. The Sargent family, who long held possession, was of good reputation ; and John Jenks Sargent, one of the later occupants, was a man of intelligence, and took much interest in matters pertaining to our local history. He furnished some pleasant sketches and reminiscences for the Bay State newspaper. His name Jenks came from his ancestor, the remarkably ingenious Joseph Jenks, of the ancient iron works.
We are unable to state just when the "Uncle Jed" and the "Sargent " houses were built ; but they date far back from the present century.
OLD TAVERN.
THIS ancient building stood on the site of the present First Methodist Church, near the head of Franklin street, and faced toward Market street. It appears to have been built before 1675, and was once occupied as a tavern. It was removed to the southeast side of Liberty street, near Cambridge, but is now nowhere to be seen in its integrity.
NAHANT HOTEL.
IN contrast with the old house represented at the top of this page, we give a view of the grand Nahant Hotel, as it was at the time of its destruction by fire on the night of September 12, 1861. (See page 469.) The original part of the edifice was built in 1819, the year in which the sea-serpent courteously made his first appearance in these waters, coming at the juncture when extra attractions for visitors were most needed. The building was picturesque, the sur- roundings charming, and it soon became an admired resort of the elite.

RESIDENCE OF JAMES R. NEWHALL, WALNUT STREET, LYNN.
ONE of the illustrations that precede the title-page of the present volume is entitled " View in Lynn, from the residence of James R. Newhall, Walnut Street, base of Sadler's Rock." The dwelling itself does not appear in the "View; " but the above picture, engraved from a photograph, is very correct. That from the house was taken in 1864; this of the house in 1884. See foot of page 439. . . By referring to the indexes of this and our other volume much may be found concerning Mr. Sadler, who settled at this point in 1635. In the land allotments of 1638, two hundred acres were granted to him, and " the Rock by his House" - hence the name Sadler's Rock. . . Mr. Sadler was doubtless a man of education, as he received priestly orders in the Church of England on his return, in 1646 or '7. He was appointed to a good living, but ejected at the Restoration.
A modest stone, commemorative of the worthy old settler, was some years since erected by the writer, near the road-side.

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS.
IT is too often the case that those individuals whom a com. munity delight to laud and magnify, are those who, through some fortuitous circumstance, unsupported by anything beyond a common share of talent or virtue, have become conspicuous. And if a cotemporary historian, perceiving the deficiency, and in the honest desire to deal justly, does not place them in the popular light, he is liable to be charged with prejudice or lack of discernment. But he must not be troubled at this ; remem- bering that his duty, in a great degree, pertains to the future, to the time when the meretricious mantle of an unsound popu- larity has fallen. His duty is to celebrate deeds of virtue and usefulness, however humble in their generation may be the instruments who performed them. But if the historian be not cotemporary, he must depend on recorded and traditionary accounts ; in which case, though safer from criticism, he may not be so successful in developing the truth or deducing the proper lesson, for he must be governed by what may be the mistakes, prejudices, or whims of others.

HISTORY OF LYNN.
The few Biographical Sketches which follow, relate only to natives of Lynn. In the pages of Annals numerous notices of prominent individuals from other places, who took up their abode here, may be found; but it was thought proper to make a distinction between them and those who were born on our soil. I have endeavored to present such characters as on the whole seemed best calculated to make useful and agreeable impressions ; but that many others who have passed away were deserving of honorable mention is most certainly true ; and nothing but the imperative requirements of limited space pre- vented a large extension of the list. And then there is the great body of those of whom no record remains. Beneath the sods of the Old Burying Ground repose an innumerable company of those whose names will stand high in a better book than this, but who lived in retirement and departed in silence.
Men who are themselves destitute of principle usually find it hard to believe that others act from principle. And most people live on, almost exclusively with a view to the present, the pass- ing time ; thinking only of their position in the community by which they are surrounded, of their possessions, of the many cyes that are turned upon them in admiration or envy. But there are, happily for our race, some with more comprehensive minds ; some who realize their dignity as men; with concep- tions not circumscribed by time and place, but recognizing their duty to mankind in general, and their responsibility to their Maker. And it is refreshing to contemplate the lives of such though their companionship may have been with the most lowly.
When men seriously reflect on their ways, they seldom fail to come to the conclusion that they are capable of better things than they have ever accomplished; and conceited as it may seem, of most people it is true. These reflections make them restless and discontented; and they should see to it that their better energies be put forth. And how many of us pass our whole lives in an atmosphere of pure selfishness, never realizing that our obligations extend beyond ourselves and those immedi- ately dependent on us. It were better, perhaps, that the sordid and vicious should pass recluse lives; but the virtuous and wise should bestir themselves among men, that others may be benefited by their good examples and superior wisdom. I am

persuaded that in former times the public position of a man was a much surer index of his real merits, than it is at present ; and think that in the following pages something will appear to sustain the view.
Who does not love to contemplate the character of a true man. And the nearer his position in life may have been to ours, the more direct the lesson taught by his history ; for we may be animated by similar hopes, struggling with similar difficulties, beset by similar temptations, quickened by similar affections. But there can be little benefit in contemplating the characters of others, however good or great, unless we strive to follow the exemplar.
It is thought that the reader will at once recognize the pro- priety of excluding from this Chapter of Biographies all who are not natives. There certainly should be some distinction pre- served. Mr. Lewis often, and at times with asperity, complained that Lynn was not true to her own children; that, for instance, those from other places were generally called to fill her positions of honor and emolument. And there was more truth and sa- gacity in many of his tart observations on the subject than some were willing to admit. She has not, in this particular, done the best for herself; for it cannot be expected, in the ordinary course of events, that those from abroad should feel the same interest in her honor and prosperity that her own sons would. The adopted child is not apt to take that lively interest in the welfare of a household which the native born does. Many of her children, driven away, as it were, have become eminent abroad, and employed for the benefit of others those talents which should have enriched her.
Our task is undertaken for more than one purpose. It is desirable to perpetuate the names of some of the worthy ones who have adorned our history ; and if we can present a little something that will profit or entertain, there will a pleasure in the labor. There will be a constant endeavor to pursue a course free from prejudice or unmerited adulation. Truth is a thing exterior to man; and whatever he may do cannot change its nature ; and we hope to keep the fact in view, though it is so difficult, in religion, in politics, in any thing, to avoid acting as if mere belief were truth itself.

HISTORY OF LYNN.
THOMAS NEWHALL-1630-1687.
Perhaps the most notable circumstance regarding this indi- vidual is that he was the first white child born in Lynn. His father, who also bore the christian name of Thomas was one of the earliest settlers, and lived on the east side of Federal street, a few rods south of the mill brook, owning all the lands, on that side, between the Turnpike and Marion street. The elder Thomas had another son, John, who was born in England. He likewise had two daughters, Susanna and Mary. The former married Richard Haven, and became maternal ancestor of one of the most respectable of American families. See page 186. Mary married Thomas Brown, and had several children.
Thomas Newhall, the subject of this sketch, was born in 1630, and was baptized by Rev. Mr. Bachiler, the first minister of. Lynn, on the first Sunday after his arrival, being June 8, 1632. A rather comical scene occurred at the baptism. Christopher Hussey, who was a son-in-law of Mr. Bachiler, and who proba- bly induced the reverend gentleman to come here, had a child, named Stephen, to be baptized at the same time ; and Mr. Bach- iler, as Thomas was first presented for the holy rite, unceremoni- ously put him aside, declaring that he should baptize Stephen, who appears to have been named for his reverend grandfather, first. Mr. Lewis seems to have thought a sort of family pride induced this movement, which struck him as an indignity toward Thomas ; but it should, perhaps, be viewed in the light of a com- pliment. It may have been that Stephen was noisy and turbu- lent, insomuch that the old gentleman was ashamed of him and anxious to hurry him out of sight, while Thomas was quiet and well-behaved. But it is not important to pursue the inquiry.
At the age of twenty-two Mr. Newhall married Elizabeth Potter, who I think was a daughter of Nicholas Potter, a man concerned in the Iron Works, but who afterward resided at Salem and was called a bricklayer. It is, however, I believe, somewhere stated by Mr. Lewis, that she was a daughter of Robert Potter, who was here for a short time among the very first settlers ; but I am confident this is a mistake. For some facts concerning this Robert Potter, see page 126.
No striking events appear in the life of Mr Newhall. Indeed, seated here, in a little forest opening, amid a population that

could almost be numbered in an hour, with no stirring incidents to mark the years as they rolled by, there was little opportunity for one to make himself conspicuous, whatever his talents or ambition. But from the frequency with which his name appears on the records, connected with trustworthy transactions, it must be inferred that he was a man of integrity, and one in whose judgment much reliance was placed. And he seems to have had a very fair education. On page 126, is a fac-simile of his signature. And it is there stated that the two last letters were supplied. Since the engraving was made I have seen one or two other signatures of his, which correspond in a remarkable degree ; and it is hardly possible to discover any difference between the supplied letters and those made by his own hand It seems appropriate and con- venient to have the fac-simile Thomas MorRall Signature of Thomas Newhall. likewise introduced in this con- nection.
Mr. Newhall died in March, 1687, his wife having died a few weeks before. He was the father of ten children; and for many years, if, indeed, not to the present time, the Newhall family has certainly been deserving of commendation for its fecundity if for nothing else.
I now propose to give a genealogical view of the principal branches of the great Newhall family descending from this our common ancestor. It would, however, be impossible here to follow the blood in all its windings. A large volume would scarcely afford sufficient space for that. But enough will be given, it is thought, to enable any one of the family to trace his connection. Great pains have been taken to have the record correct; but still the most patient investigation and diligent inquiry amid so many entanglements and positive contradictions may not meet with the reward of entire success. Numerous records and documents, besides those in the meagre archives of Lynn, have been examined. Indeed, if Lynn alone had been depended on, the information would have been most imperfect and unreliable. If all our public records were as defective as the few that survive, their loss is not much to be deplored, for they must, at some periods at least, have abounded with obscu- rities and ridiculous errors. Some years ago several of the
484
HISTORY OF LYNN.
old books were copied, at some cost. And an opportunity was thus afforded to multiply the errors; an opportunity which, I am sorry to say, did not pass unimproved.
Though the great progenitor of the Newhall family, was Thomas, father of the subject of this sketch, yet there was an Anthony Newhall here, in 1636, who, in the division of lands, in 1638, had a grant of thirty acres. He was, however, for a time a resident of Salem. He died 31 January, 1657 ; had a son John, who married Elizabeth Normanton, 31 December 1656, and probably other children, as in his will are found the names of Richard and Elizabeth Hood, grandchildren. But it does not appear that any of the present Newhall families of Lynn can trace their origin to him. I thought that John might have been his only male child, and that he, perhaps, had no male issue ; but Farmer seems to make him progenitor of Dr. Horace and Rev. Ebenezer Newhall, who graduated at Harvard in 1817 and 1818
In what follows, the numerals placed before the names indicate the generation to which the individuals belonged.
I. THOMAS. As just observed, this individual, the great progenitor of the Newhalls of Lynn, came over in 1630, and located on the east side of Federal street.
II. THOMAS. This is the personage whose name stands at the head of this sketch - a son of the preceding, and the first white person born in Lynn. He married, 29 December, 1652, Elizabeth Potter, and became the father of ten children, viz: Thomas, born 18 November, 1653; John, b. 14 Feb- ruary, 1656; Joseph, b. 22 September, 1658; Nathaniel, b. 17 March, 1660; Elizabeth, b. 21 March, 1662, and living but three years ; Elisha, b. 3 Novem- ber, 1665; Elizabeth again, b. 22 October, 1667; Mary, b. 18 February, 1669; Samuel, b. 19 January, 1672; Rebecca, b. 17 July, 1675.
III. JOSEPH. This, the third son of II. Thomas, was born 22 September, 1658. He married Susanna, a daughter of Thomas Farrar, in 1678, and settled in Lynnfield. He had eleven children, viz : Jemima, born 31 December, 1678; Thomas, b. 6 January, 1681; Joseph, b. 6 February, 1684; Elisha, b. 20 No- vember, 1686; Ephraim, b. 20 February, 1689; Daniel, b. 5 February, 1691 ; Ebenezer, b. 3 June, 1693; Susanna, b. 19 December, 1695; Benjamin, b. 5 April, 1698; Samuel, b. 9 March, 1700; Sarah, b. 11 July, 1704. This is the Joseph, without doubt, who perished in a great snow storm.
IV. BENJAMIN, son of III. Joseph, born 5 April, 1698, married Elizabeth Fowle, 1 January, 1722, and had fourteen children, viz: Bridget, born 30 No- vember, 1722; Mary, b. 11 November, 1724 ; Benjamin, b. 6 September, 1726; Ruth, b. 13 January, 1729; James, b. 11 July, 1731; Isaiah, b. 24 March, 1734 ;-

Joseph, was adopted by his uncle, Thomas Farrar, jr., who was a farmer, living on Nahant street, and who by will gave him all the lands lying between Broad, Nahant, Sagamore, and Beach streets. This Samuel married Keziah, daughter of Ebenezer Breed, who lived in Breed's End, so called, 8 December, 1724, and had ten children, viz: Anne, born 27 October, 1725, who married Matthew Estes; Elizabeth, b. 7 March, 1728, Sarah, b. 20 August, 1730, who, at the age of seventy married Abner Jones, of Amesbury ; Lydia, b. 14 January, 1733, who married Nehe- miah Johnson ; Farrar, b. 15 February 1735 ;- (who, singularly enough, has always been known as Pharaoh; and indeed he himself, in writing his name as I perceive by some old bills, adopted the Egyptian orthography) - Abijah, b. 15 February, 1737, who married Abigail Bassett : Abigail, b. 4 March, 1739, who married Samuel Purinton ; Daniel, b. 4 February, 1741; Rebecca, b. 28 October, 1743, who married Abner Chase of Salem ; Ruth, b. 12 October, 1746, who married John Bassett.

Benjamin, being a magistrate, was long known as 'Squire Jim -(see under date 1781)-he married Lois Burrill, daughter of Ebenezer, called Esquire, and granddaughter of Hon. Ebenezer Burrill, 17 September, 1756, and had ten children, viz: Lois, born 9 July, 1757; Lydia, b. 21 August, 1759; Elizabeth, b. 23 June, 1761; James, b. 2 June, 1763; Martha, b. 25 February, 1765; Benjamin, b. 27 Feb- ruary, 1767; Joel, b. 14 May, 1769; Mary, b. 7 September, 1771; James again and Benjamin again, twins, b. 19 January, 1774- and these twins, the former of whom was unele and the latter father of the writer lived to the respective ages of 80 and 83.
V. FARRAR, (or PHARAOH), the first son of IV. Samuel, born 15 February, 1735, married his cousin Theodate, daughter of Jabez Breed, of Nahant street, 24 April, 1764, and had six children, viz : Samuel, born 9 March, 1765; Abner, b. 24 September, 1767, and died in infancy; Winthrop, b. 6 June, 1769; Ab- ner again, b. 19 July, 1771, who died unmarried at the age of thirty-two; Syl- vanus, b. 18 July, 1773; Theodate, b. 6 February, 1776, who married Manuel Austin ; Francis, b. 23 September, 1778, who died at the age of nine.
