LBION PARRIS BENJAMIN, formerly leading business man of Oakland, but who is now retired from active business life, was born in Winthrop, Me., January 12, 1825. His parents were Sam- uel and Olivia (Metcalf) Benjamin, the father a native of Livermore and the mother of Frank- lin, Mass. His paternal grandfather, Samuel Benjamin, born in Watertown, Mass., was a Revolutionary soldier, serving from Lexington to Yorktown. He was a descendant of John Benjamin, who came to America from Eng-' land about the year 1632, settling in New Town, now Cambridge, Mass.
The subject of this sketch was educated in the common schools of Winthrop. Going to Lowell, Mass., in May, 1844, at the age of nine- teen, to learn the machinist's trade, he was there employed for three years, or until the fall of 1847. He then went to Portland, Me., where he entered the employ of the Portland
Company, manufacturers of locomotives. In the spring of 1850 he set out for California, making the trip by way of the Isthmus of Panama, and for two years after arriving there he was foreman for Egery & Hinckley, of San Francisco, machinists and founders. Returning to Maine in the spring of 1853, he settled in Winthrop, where in the following year he went into business with his brother, John M.
Benjamin, under the firm name of Benjamin & Co., as a manufacturer of threshing machines. This business was carried on until 1862, when the firm was dissolved. In May, 1863, Mr. Benjamin removed to West Waterville, now known as Oakland, Me., where he engaged in the manufacture of threshing machines, car- rying on also a general foundry and jobbing machine business. In May, 1867, he took as a partner Mr. George F. Allen, and under the style of Benjamin & Allen the business was carried on very successfully for thirty years, or until January 1, 1897, when Mr. Benjamin retired. Mr. Benjamin was an incorporator and promoter of the West Waterville National Bank, now the Messalonskee National Bank, after its organization becoming one of its di- rectors and its president, which latter office he held for thirteen years. He continued for five years longer as a director of the institution. He was also for a number of years a trustee of the former West Waterville Savings Bank, now the Caseade Savings Bank of Oakland.
Mr. Benjamin has taken an active part in the affairs of town government and local poli- ties. From 1870 to 1873 he was chairman of the Board of Selectmen of the town of Water- ville, and in March, 1873, was chosen chairman of the Board of the new town of West Water- ville, which was set off February 26 of that year. He was also chosen to the same office in 1877, serving one year. Elected on the Repub- lican ticket in September, 1884, to the Maine House of Representatives, he served in the legislative session of the following year. In these publie positions he showed the business capacity and the same devotion to the interests of his town and district that he had already dis- played in the management of his own affairs, winning in a high degree the respect of his fellow-citizens.

Mr. Benjamin was married in 1859 to Abbie L. Wing, a native of Augusta, Me., and daugh- ter of Isaac D. and Lydia (Trufant) Wing. They have had three children, two of whom are living, Jeanette and Alice. The one who died was Marion.
JDWARD J. LAWRENCE, president of the Lawrence, Newhall & Page Company, of Fairfield, is a representative of the third generation of a family that has been influ- ential from the early days of the settlement of the town. He was born in Fairfield Centre, January 1, 1833, son of Captain James and Anna (Lander) Lawrence. His paternal grand- father, James Lawrence, Sr., came to Maine from Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
A number of early colonists of New England bore the surname Lawrence, among them being John, who came from Wisset, Suffolk, England, about 1630, it is thought, was made freeman at Watertown in 1637, and about 1662 removed to Groton; his father, Henry Lawrence, who settled in Charlestown in 1635; and a Thomas Lawrence, who received a grant of land at Hingham in 1638. The first of the name in Cape Cod appears to have been Robert Law- rence, the founder of the Sandwich branch of the family. Under date of 1679 Freeman has this record: "Leave was granted to Robert Lawrence of Sandwich to purchase 'a certain tract of land of Indian Simon Wiekett, at Po- cassett : six score acres.'" The will of Robert1 Lawrence, dated October, 1704, was proved in January, 1710. Children mentioned. Jo- seph,2 Benjamin, Samuel, Joshua, Ebenezer, Experience.
James Lawrence, Sr., was born in 1761, son of Joseph Lawrence (not Joseph2 above named, but evidently of a later generation) and his wife, Mary Percival, daughter of John Percival, of Barnstable. Joseph Lawrence, father of James and great-grandfather of Edward J. Law- rence, of Fairfield, it is thought may have been the Revolutionary soldier of that name recorded as a private in Captain Simon Fish's company, Colonel Freeman's regiment, who served in the Continental army in 1778, on the alarm at Dart- mouth and Falmouth. He had, it is said, two
brothers, Peleg and Solomon. Four brothers of James Lawrence-namely, Henry, Joseph, Jr., Peleg, and William-were well-to-do farm- ers in South Sandwich, residing near the large pond now known as the Lawrence Pond. Two other ponds in the vicinity are known respec- tively as the Upper and Lower Percival. Jo- seph and Mary (Percival) Lawrence had also four daughters, one being Mary, who married Benjamin Smith.
There is a family tradition that James Law- rence, Sr., with his wife, came from Cape Cod in a sailing vessel, being three weeks on the way, that they brought a yoke of oxen and a cow, the cow eventually being yoked with one of the oxen to draw the plough, taking the place of an ox that died.
That part of the District of Maine which is now Somerset County was then but thinly populated, much of the land still being in a wild state. In 1788 James Lawrence was chosen Fence Viewer. The records show also that he was assessed for taxes in the town of Fairfield, now Fairfield Centre, in 1795. An industrious agriculturist, intelligent and thrifty, he cultivated the soil, and also raised stock. He was a man of character and influence, and filled many positions of trust and honor in town and county, serving also as a. Representative from Fairfield in the Maine Legislature. He died in Fairfield, April 2, 1849, aged eighty- eight years. His wife, Meribah Allen, daughter of Francis Allen, died in January of the same year. Their children were: Ebenezer, born in 1785, who married Cynthia Holway; Joseph, who married Mary Mendell; Malinda, who was twice married, first to a Mr. Burgess and second to a Mr. Hyde; Betsy, who married a Mr. Davis; Elihu, who married, and was the father of three daughters; Henry, who mar- ried Rose Bowman; and Captain James (the father named above), born in 1802. There may have been also a son Peleg and a son William.
James Lawrence, the youngest son of James, Sr., and Meribah (Allen) Lawrence, was known as Captain James Lawrence from his rank in the State militia. He died in Fairfield, June 27, 1886, seven years after the death of his wife, which occurred June 18, 1879. They had eight

children, of whom four-namely, Edward J., Maria (Mrs. Muir, whose genealogical researches in Sandwich have brought to light most of the foregoing facts relating to the carly history of the family), Olive (Mrs. Hanson), and Rose, (Mrs. Emery) are now living. A son, George W. Lawrence, died in 1SS7 in California, whither he had gone for his health. A wife and two children survived him. Richard Lawrence, the youngest son in the family, was a resident of California for thirty-five years. He died in Stockton, Cal., in 1902. The oldest son, James H. Lawrence, died in 1894, aged sixty-eight.
The mother, Mrs. Anna Lander Lawrence, who was married at the age of seventeen, was the daughter of Thomas and Mary (Fish) Lander, of Fairfield, Me. She was a woman of sterling qualities of heart and mind, a devoted wife and mother, looking well to the ways of her household, toiling early and late when her chil- dren were young, and patiently bearing the re- verses which finally bfell Captain Lawrence, leading to the sale of their farm. In their declining years, when the sons were prosperously engaged in business, the parents, sharing their abundance, were tenderly cared for:
Edward Jones Lawrence, whose business career is briefly outlined below, was educated in the public schools of Fairfield, completing his course of study in the high school. In 1855 he entered the employ of the firm of Wing & Bates as a clerk in their mercantile establish- ment in Gardiner, being subsequently trans- ferred to the office in Shawmut, where he was placed in charge of the elerical department of their mercantile and lumber industries. He remained in that position, gaining valuable experience as well as rendering useful service, until 1860, when he purchased one-third of their saw-mill property, and began to operate for himself, taking in as a partner his brother, G. W. Lawrence. The firm of E. J. & G. W. Lawrence, which eventually bought out the remaining interests of Wing & Bates, con- tinued in business in Shawmut, Me., a number of years. It was succeeded by that of Lawrence, Phillips & Co., and a few years after by the present corporation, the Lawrence, Newball & Page Company, of which Mr. Edward J. Lawrence is now (1903) the president.
Mr. Lawrence is likewise the president of the Waterville Trust Company, of Waterville, Me., of the Portland & Brunswick Street Railway Company, and of the Waterville & Oakland Street Railway Company, he having been one of the promoters and builders of these railways, and also of the Lewiston, Brunswick & Bath, and the Portsmouth, Kittery & York Street Railway Company. Mr. Lawrence, in con- nection with his lumber business, has shipping interests, being part owner of several large schooners. He has not much time to give to politics, but votes with the Democratic party, and in 1879 served as a member of the House in the State Legislature. He is a member of the Universalist church in Fairfield, and is a Mason, belonging to Siloam Lodge of Fairfield and to St. Omer Commandery, Water- ville.
Mr. Lawrence married for his first wife in 1859 Miss Sarah Gerrish, of Portland, Me., by whom he had one child, Howard, now de- ceased. Mrs. Sarah G. Lawrence died in 1865, and he married in 1868 Miss Hannah M. Shaw, of Carmel, Me. Three daughters were born of this union, namely: Addie M. and Alice, who are living; and Annie, who died at the age of seventeen years. For several years Miss Addie M. Lawrence has been a member of the school board of Fairfield. She is now travelling in Europe. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence and their family have a very pleasant home in one of the commodious and attractive dwellings of Fairfield.
