(VI) Ichabod (2), second child and elder of the two sons of Ichabod (I) and Hannah (Bigelow) (Cheney) Thayer, born March 6, 1745, died March 10, 1796, aged fifty-one years, in Milford, where his life was passed. He married, in February, 1765. Mary Marsh, by whom he had twelve children: Hannah, Asa, Charlotte (died young), Alexander, Ar- ba, Ziba, Rufus, Arsuba, Charlotte, Otis, Polly and Ichabod.

(VII) Alexander, fourth child and second son of Ichabod (2) and Mary ( Marsh) Thayer, was born in Milford, March 15, 1771. He removed to Paris, Maine, about the year 1796, and there engaged in farming in what was then a new country. He died March 9, 1809, aged only thirty-eight. He married, June 28, 1798, Esther Spaulding, who died July 30, 1841. They were the parents of two children : America and Almira.

(VIII) America, only son of Alexander and Esther (Spaulding) Thayer, born in Paris, Maine, July 5, 1799, died in Paris, April 21, 1873, aged seventy-four. He was a farmer in comfortable circumstances, took an interest in public affairs, kept well informed of the world's progress, and raised a family that was a credit to him. He married,. February 17, 1823, Caroline Prentiss (See Prentiss VII), born in Paris, October 4, 1800, daughter of Deacon Caleb and Mary Webber (Morgan) Prentiss, and died August 4, 1871, in the seventieth year of her age. She was a woman whose children inherited from her many of the qualities that gave them a superior stand- ing in the community where they grew up and elsewhere. The children of America and Caroline (Prentiss) Thayer were: Julia Lau- retta, Alexander H., Emily Clark, Mary Pren-

tiss, Julia Miranda, Augustus Spaulding, Caroline Victoria, Josephine Augusta and Or- lando America.

(IX) Dr. Augustus Spaulding, sixth child and second son of America and Caroline (Prentiss) Thayer, was born in Paris, March 18, 1835. His literary education was acquired in the public schools of his native town, Nor- way Liberal Institute, at Norway, Gould Academy, Bethel, and Paris Hill Academy, Paris. In the spring of 1861 he commenced the study of medicine with the late Dr. Thomas H. Brown, of Paris Hill. The fol- lowing winter he attended his first course of medical lectures at the Maine Medical School, Bowdoin College, after which he continued his studies in the Portland School for Medical Instruction until the fall of 1863. He then entered the medical department of the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, from which institu- tion he graduated in March, 1864. In the following May he located in Portland, Maine, where he commenced the practice of his pro- fession and has since continued there in active practice up to the present time (1908). The winter of 1874 he spent in the hospitals of New York and Philadelphia in post-graduate work. He was city physician of Portland from February, 1866, to April, 1868; was in- structor in the Portland School for Medical Instruction from 1878 to 1903; was physician to the Maine General Hospital from 1874 to 1905, and is now on its staff of consulting physicians. During the thirty-one years Dr. Thayer served at the Maine General Hospital his work was entirely gratuitous. Many phil- anthropic physicians contribute much service to the poor and needy without price or hope of reward, but it is seldom that one gives his time and skill without recompense for so long a period. From 1893 to 1897 he was a member of the board of United States pension ex- aminers. It is now forty-four years since Dr. Thayer, a young and hopeful beginner in the practice, settled in Portland and offered his services to the public. From then till now he has been an active, earnest, skillful worker in alleviating suffering, and has attained high rank as a physician, and accumulated a com- petency. He is highly esteemed as a profes- sional man and as a citizen. He is a member of the Portland Clinical Society, the Cumber- land County Medical Society, the Maine Medi- cal Association, the American Medical Asso- ciation, and is an ex-president of the former three. He is also a member of the Portland Natural History Society, the Portland Ath- letic Club, the Portland Economic Club, and

an honorary member of the Portland Frater- nity Club. He is also a member of the follow- ing divisions of Free Masonry : Ancient Land- mark Lodge, No. 17, Greenleaf Royal Arch Chapter, No. 13. St. Albans Commandery, No. S, Knights Templar, and Maine Sov- ereign Consistory. In politics a Democrat, he has never been active as a politician.

SOULE The name Soule was formerly spelled Sole, Soal, Soul, and is an ancient English name. In 1591 the Soles of London, England, were granted armorial bearings. The advent of the Soule family in New England dates back to the arrival of the "Mayflower" in 1620, when George Soule, one of the "Pilgrim Band," emigrated to America and helped to plant the Plymouth colony and maintain the principles in defense of which those self-reliant pioneers left their native land for an unknown land.

(I) George Soule was one of the forty-one signers of the first compact drawn up in the nature of a government. In 1624 he re- ceived one acre of land in Plymouth between Sandwick street and the harbor. In 1633 his name appears on the first list of freemen in the records of Plymouth, and in 1633-34 he was taxed independent of Winslow, his tax in the former year being nine shillings. In 1638 he lived north of Eel river bridge, relinquished his land there to Constant and Thomas South- worth, removed to Duxbury and settled at Powder Point. Mr. Soule was of essential value to Duxbury, which he represented sev- eral years in court of deputies, and held many other offices which showed him to be a man of integrity and probity. In 1645 he was one of the proprietors of Bridgewater, and with Captain Miles Standish, John Alden and three

others was appointed to lay out and divide the land among the inhabitants. He married Mary Becket, or Bucket, who came as one of the passengers in the "Ann" and her consorts in 1621, in company with Barbara Standish and Patience and Fear Brewster. Children : George, Zechariah, John, Nathaniel, Benja- min, Patience, Elizabeth and Mary, all born before 1650, but the order of birth unknown. George Soule died in 1680, "very aged." He willed his property to his son John, viz .: "And for as much as my eldest son John Soule, and his family hath in my extreme old age and weakness bin tender and careful of mee and very healpful to mee : and is likely to be while it shall please God to continue my life heer, therefore I give and bequeath unto my said son John Soule all the remainder of my hous- ings and lands whatever." The wife of George Soule died in 1677.

(II) John (1), son of George and Mary (Becket) Soule, born in 1632, died in 1707, aged seventy-five. He resided in Duxbury. At the time his father made his will he was the eldest child, and he was made the chief heir. He was freeman in 1653. During the excite- ment against the Quakers he was fined, Octo- ber 2, 1660, for attending their meetings. He was surveyor of highways, 1672-94; grand juryman, 1675-77-78-83-84 : arbitrator between Marshfield and Duxbury, and Plymouth and Duxbury. 1698, involving land disputes; wit- ness to the Indian deed of Bridgewater, dated December 23, 1686, and joined in a remon- strance, 1687, against increasing the salary of the Rev. Ichabod Wiswell. He married Es- ther. probably a daughter of Philip de la Noye, who died September 12, 1733, aged ninety- five. Their children: John, Joseph, Joshua, Josiah, Benjamin and two daughters.

(III) Joshua, third son of John and Esther Soule, born in Duxbury, October 12, 1681, died at Duxbury, May 29, 1767, aged eighty- five. He resided in Duxbury. He married Joanna Studley. Children : Zermiah, John, Ezekiel. Joshua, Abigail, Joanna, Sarah, Jo- seph, Nathan and probably Lydia.

(IV) Ezekiel, third child of Joshua and Joanna (Studley) Soule, born in Duxbury, February 17. 1711, died at Woolwich, Maine, December 8, 1799, whither he removed in 1766. He was chosen deacon of the church in 1749 and was an important advisor in its affairs. He married, at Duxbury, January 4, 1733. Hannalı Delano, who died September 25, 1768, aged fifty years.

(V) John (2), son of Ezekiel and Hannah (Delano) Soule, born in Duxbury, 1735, died in Woolwich, Maine, August 21, 1795. He married Patience -- , who died at Wool- wich, Maine, December 1, 1777. Among their children was Samuel.

(VI) Samuel, son of John and Patience Soule, born at Woolwich, Maine, June 18, 1769, died at Woolwich, December 26, 1816. He married, at Woolwich, August 21, 1794, Joanna Farnham. Among their children was David Farnham.

(VII) David Farnham, son of Samuel and Joanna (Farnham) Soule, born in Woolwich, Maine, February 6, 1795, died in the same town, April 18, 1860. He married, in Wool- wich, April 27, 1820, Elizabeth (McMurchie) Dole, born in Woolwich, Maine, August 19, 1789, died there May 6, 1865. Among their children was Gilbert.

(VIII) Gilbert, son of David F. and Eliza- beth ( McMurchie) (Dole) Soule, born in Woolwich, Maine, December 6, 1821, died at Portland, Maine, January 20, 1884. He was for many years engaged in the timber and lumber business in Northern Maine and New Hampshire. "Captain Soule was of vigorous physique, strong, influential and energetic, an industrious and valued citizen, a reader of high-class literature, and a man of independent thought and reflection. His height was five feet and eleven inches, and average weight two hundred and thirty pounds. His light- blue eyes were accompanied by dark-brown hair. He was of a pleasant, social and genial nature, looking rather upon the bright than the dark side, and in all relations of life he made sunshine by his cheery presence. Con- gregational in his religious belief, yet he gave liberally to all Christian work. Republican in politics, even an ardent partisan, yet he was not an aspirant for office. As an employer he was never dictatorial, but the considerate kindness which ever actuated him, and was shown in his intercourse with his workmen, gained for him their good-will and esteem. He was much interested in historical and geo- graphical works, was a generous contributor to the Pilgrims' Monument erected at Plym- outh, Massachusetts, and was justly proud of his descent from the "Mayflower" band. He inherited their sterling qualities, and many traits of the Soule family have descended through him'to his children. That kindly filial spirit of John Soule which led him to honor, respect and cherish his father in his old age is also shown in the veneration and love of the present generation for the memory of

their father." Gilbert Soule married, in Port- land, Maine, August 24, 1853, Eliza Anne Mills, born in Detroit, Maine, March 6, 1829, died at Groveton, New Hampshire, May 31, 1895.

Annie Laurie, born in Brewer, Maine, No- vember 22, 1858, married Dr. Augustus S. Thayer, of Portland (see Thayer, IX). 4. Edward B., born November 16, 1861, married Maude Chandler, two children : Annie L. and Edna B. 5. James, born in Brewer, Maine, December 9, 1868, of Groveton, New Hamp- shire, married Edith V. Cole, two sons: Ethan A. and Louis.

PRENTICE or PRENTISS This ancient English name is an abbrevi- ation of apprentice, and was first assumed as a cognomen hy one who was, or had lately been, an apprentice to some trade. Thomas Prentice is mentioned in Rhymer's Foedera in the twelfth year of Edward II, that is, A. D. 1318. John Prentiz is referred to as of 1403; and John Prentys, Rector of Winterborn, Bradston, in 1413. One name in this country is believed to have been originally spelled Prentice, present day variations of which are Prentis and Prentiss. The first of the name known to have come to America was Valen- tine Prentice, who came over with the "Apos- tle" Eliot, in 1631. It is supposed that Valen- tine of Roxbury, Henry of Cambridge, and Captain Thomas of Newton, Massachusetts, and perhaps Robert of Roxbury connected in some way.

(I) Henry (1) Prentice, "Planter," of Cam- bridge, Massachusetts, probably a native of England, was in Cambridge before 1640. He was a member of the church in Cambridge which was formed in 1636, the record of whose members "was taken and registered in the IIth month, 1658." He was a proprietor of lands in Sudbury, and was one of the pro- prietors to whom lands were allotted in the second and third division of land in 1640; and in the inventory of his estate is one town right in Sudbury. He was made freeman in Cambridge, May 22, 1650. He died April 9, 1654. O. S. One inventory of his estate was £54, 13s. 8d. October 6, 1663, administra- tion was granted to his late widow, who had then married a second husband who was made joint administrator. She was decreed £20, and each child an equal share in the estate, except the oldest, who, according to the cus-

tom of the time, received a double portion. Henry Prentice married (first) Elizabeth , who died May 13, 1643. He married (second) Joane She married ( sec- ond), July 24, 1662, Elder John Gibson Sr., becoming his second wife when he was sixty- five years of age. The children of Henry and Joane Prentice were: Mary, Solomon, Abiah, Samuel, Henry and Sarah.

(II) Solomon, second child and eldest son of Henry and Joane Prentice, was born in Cambridge, "23, 7, 1646," and died July 24, 1719, aged seventy-three. He left a large es- tate, and his inventory by his widow Hepzibah and his oldest son, Solomon, administrators, August 20, 1719, mentions rights in common, housing, orchard, land at Westfield, in Miles Ware Corner, and in Lexington. His real es- tate amounted to £851; and the total estate to £909 16s. 2d. Watertown First Church records of Rev. Samuel Sanger state: "Solo- mon Prentice, senior, and wife, members of the church of Cambridge, did partake with us in the first administration of the Lord's Sup- per, August 22, 1697." He married (first) Elizabeth - who died before 1678; (sec- ond) Hepsibah Dunn, or Dunton, who died January 15, 1741, aged eighty-nine. The chil- dren by the first wife, Elizabeth, were: Solo- mon and Thomas; those by the second wife, Hepzibah, were: Stephen, Elizabeth and - amounted to £1.541 14S. 8d., including "Shoe- Nathaniel (twins), Nathaniel dying young, Nathaniel, Henry, Samuel and Mary.

(III) Deacon Henry (2), fifth child and fourth son of Solomon and Hepzibah (Dunn) Prentice, born in Cambridge in 1693, died at the house of his son, Rev. Joshua Prentice, in Holliston, October 18, 1778, in the eighty- fifth year of his age. In the settlement of his father's estate, he was allowed for four and a half years' services, £60 in the "new house," and his share of his father's estate in lands at Westfield gate and other places was £92; in a deed dated 1722 he is called "briekmaker." In his will dated Cambridge, January 20, 1776, he is described as "husbandman." He owned the Fresh Pond property in Cambridge. He "removed to his son's in Holliston when the Revolutionary army occupied Cambridge." By the terms of his will he disposes of £723 13s. 4d. in money to various legatees, mostly his children, several of whom had previously received property of him, and makes his son Joshua residuary legatee of all property real and personal, left after payment of the debts of the estate. He was a deacon of Dr. Nathaniel Appleton's church, Cambridge, many years, and a valuable document written

and signed by him, instituting the first prayer- meeting, was once in the possession of Rev. N. G. Albro, of the "Shepherd" Congrega- tional Church, Cambridge, and claimed as church property. Deacon Prentice was a tall and very grave-looking man, sat in the dea- cons' seats in church, directly in front of the minister, and in cold weather, when he took his hat off in church, he, being bald, put on a green woolen cap with a tassel on the top to keep his head warm. His house was still standing in Cambridge some years ago, about forty rods from the Washington elm, at the corner of the road to the arsenal. He mar- ried Elizabeth, daughter of William Rand, of "Milk Row," Charlestown, near Cambridge. She died March 13, 1748, aged fifty-two. "Henry Prentiss and his wife Elizabeth owned the Covenant November 22, 1718." Their children were: Joshua, Caleb, Martha, Eliza- beth, Thomas ( died young), Hepzibah, Thom- as, Nathan and Sarah.

(IV) Caleb (1), second son and child of Deacon Henry (2) and Elizabeth (Rand) Prentice, born February 21, 1722, baptized February 25, 1722, died in Cambridge, Novem- ber 19, 1772. He changed the spelling of his name from Prentice to Prentiss. He was a man of property and quality, as is indicated by the property mentioned in his inventory, which maker's shop" and "potash works." His will, dated January 14, 1770, probated December II, 1772, gives legacies and so forth to his children, provides for the education of his son Samuel in colleges and makes his sons William and Henry residuary legatees. His inventory mentions "Cinnamon colored coat, Bear skin coat, old flowered Jack coat, Leather breeches, Kersey Great coat, Banyan two wigs," etc. He married (first) September 17, 1744, Lydia, daughter of Deacon Samuel Whittemore, of Cambridge; (second) December 20, 1768, widow Rebecca Rockwell, of Milk Row, Charlestown, now Somerville, whose maiden name was Kent. She survived Caleb upwards of thirty-five years, and died in 1807. The children, all by the first wife, were: Caleb (died young), Caleb, Elizabeth, Samuel (died young), Samuel, William, Henry and Lydia.

(V) Rev. Caleb (2), second son and child of Caleb (1) and Lydia (Whittemore) Pren- tiss, was born in Cambridge, November 14, and baptized November 16, 1746.

First Church of the First Parish of Reading, October 25, or 29, 1769, and filled that place with ability for many years. "Like other patriots of the Revolution, at the Lexington alarm, he turned out with his musket, and was in the running fight from Lexington to Charlestown; on the route he came across a dead British pioneer, and took his gun and sword, one side of which was a pioneer's saw. These were long preserved in the family. He also marched with the militia to Salem, on an alarm of the landing of the British there to seize arms, etc. Like many a minister in the country with a large family and a small salary, he received pupils into his family to educate." He died of consumption, and his remains were deposited in the cemetery ad- joining the meeting-house in Reading. The following inscription is on the tombstone erected by the Parish in South Reading : "Sacred to the memory of Reverend Caleb Prentiss, late pastor of the First Church in this town, who passed into the world of spirits February 7, 1803, in the thirty-fourth year of his ministry, and the fifty-seventh of his age. Faith, Piety, and Benevolence, with a kindred assemblage of Christian graces and moral vir- tues, adorned his public and private character, endeared his memory to a bereaved family, a mourning flock, his brethren in office, and all acquainted with his merits." Publication of marriage intentions was made in the Second Parish of Lancaster, now Sterling, November 22, 1770, and January 1, 1771, Rev. Caleb Prentiss and Pamela Mellen, daughter of Rev. John and Rebecca ( Prentiss) Mellen, were joined in marriage by the bride's father. Re- becca Prentiss was the daughter of Rev. John Prentiss, of Lancaster, a grandson of Captain Thomas Prentice, of Newton, and by this mar- riage the Cambridge and Newton branches of the family were united. Mrs. Pamela Pren- tiss married ( second) September 14, 1809, Colonel John Waldron, son of Richard Wal- dron, a prominent man of Dover, New Hamp- shire. She died in Dover, July, 1823, aged seventy-three, having exemplified in her life the character of a Christian. She was buried with the three forme; wives of Colonel Wal- dron under the elms near his house. The thirteen children of Rev.

He was post- master, and in 1802 justice of the peace. In 1808 he removed to his farm in the eastern part of the town, and in 1818 was chosen deacon of the First Congregational Church of Paris. "As he lived a pious and conscien- tious Christian, so his end was peace and full of faith in a happy immortality."
