(VI) Oscar Fingall, third son of John Win- chester (2) and Susan (Damon) Dana, was born in Pomfret, Vermont, March 3, 1815, died in 1902. He graduated from the Uni- versity of Vermont in 1836, and became a lawyer. He married, in 1839, Susan M. Mc- Lean, and they had children : Emily W., John W., Richard H., Frances.
(VII) Captain John Winchester (3), eldest son of Oscar Fingall and Susan N. (McLean) Dana, was born in Kenosha, Wisconsin, 1843, and in early life came with his parents to Portland, Maine, where he attended the pub- lic schools. He enlisted in Company B, Twelfth Maine Volunteer Infantry, November 16, 1861, and served until the muster out of that organization, being stationed at Ship Island, in the Gulf of Mexico, and other points in Louisiana, under command of General B. F. Butler. He was promoted to second lieu- tenant and to captain of Company G, and served in the signal corps. "Later he was ap- pointed on the staff of General Grover, and served till July, 1865, when he resigned and was discharged at Portland. He was a clerk in the employ of the American Barrell Ma- chine Company, in Boston, for a number of years, and then treasurer for several years. In 1870 he left this position and became an assessor in the United States internal revenue service, and was engaged in Virginia three years. Leaving that business, he returned to Portland and was cashier of the Portland & Ogdensburg railroad, and in 1876 was made treasurer of that organization, a position he still holds, after a continuous service of more than thirty years with the road, which although it has been absorbed by the Boston & Maine, still retains its original organization. Mr. Dana is domestic in his habits, finds his pleas- ure at home, and belongs to no societies or clubs. In national politics he is a Republican ; in local affairs an independent. He married Martha Fessenden, daughter of Oliver and Martha (Trask) Fessenden, of Portland, and granddaughter of General Samuel Fessenden.

Subsequently he re- turned and went to Fryeburg, Maine, and studied law in the office of Judge Judah Dana, and taught in the Fryeburg Academy. In 1845 he entered the office of Howard & Shepley, lawyers, of Portland. About this time he taught in the Portland Academy. Later he was admitted to the bar and opened an office and began the practice of law in Gorham, and in 1858 formed with Mr. Shepley the firm of Dana & Shepley, who did a large law business. He married, May 22, 1849, in Portland, Caro- line Pauline Fowler, born in Westfield, Mas- sachusetts, September 9, 1831, daughter of Daniel and Miranda (Jones) Fowler, of West- field. Children : I.

In 1879 he entered the employ of Loring, Short & Harmon, booksellers, where he remained ten years. He then went to Gar- diner, Maine, as secretary of the Maine Trust and Banking Company, where he served six years. In 1695 he returned to Portland and became a partner in the lumber firm of Rich- ardson, Dana & Company, and has ever since been connected with that firm. In politics he is a Republican and since 1906 has held the position of member of the school board from ward seven. He is a member of the follow- ing named clubs : Portland, Portland Camera, and Congress Square Men's Club.

NOYES Commencing with the Plymouth Colony, in 1620, New England had many emigrants from the mother country in the early part of the cen- tury, and most, if not all, from the same cause. Under James I and Charles I all forms of worship which did not conform to those of the established church (Anglican) were strictly prohibited ; and all "Non-Conformists," as they were called, were rigorously persecuted, and many fled to Holland and America. Catholics and Puritans suffered alike under that bigoted church. Puritan ministers were driven from their livings by the hundred, and flocked to Holland, their old shelter, and to America, a newly discovered refuge. Between 1627 and 1641, during the persecutions of Laud, New England received most of its early settlers, and this persecution was no doubt the cause of the emigration of James and Nicholas Noyes and those who came with them. The weight of authority seems to indicate that the family of Noyes is descended from one of the nobles of William the Conqueror of England in 1066. William des Noyers, one of these nobles, whose name rendered into English is William of the Walnut trees, was a prominent figure. The name des Noyers by first dropping the article became Noyers, and later was corrupted to Noyes.
(I) Rev. William Noyes was born in Eng- land, in 1568, and died in Cholderton, in the county of Wilts, England, before April 30, 1622. He matriculated at University College, Oxford, November 15, 1588, and was admit- ted to the degree of B. A., May 31, 1592. He was instituted rector of Cholderton, a place about eleven miles from Salisbury, in 1602, and served in that position until his death. The inventory of his estate was made April 30, 1622, and his widow appointed administratrix May 28, 1622. He married, about 1595, Anne Parker, born 1575, and buried at Cholderton, March 7, 1657. Their children were : Ephraim, Nathan, James, Nicholas, a daughter, name not known, and John.
(II) Deacon Nicholas, fourth son and child of Rev. William and Anne ( Parker) Noyes, was born in England in 1615-16. Rev. James and Deacon Nicholas Noyes, brothers, in March, 1633, embarked for New England in the "Mary and John" of London, with their
cousin, Rev. Thomas Parker. No record has been found of the place and date of the landing of James and Nicholas, but it was probably on the bank of the Mystic river, as the records show that they settled in Medford in 1634, and that they moved to Newbury the following year. On arriving, they sailed up the Parker river (then called the Quascacunquen) to a point a short distance below where the bridge now stands. Tradition says that Nicholas was the first to leap ashore. He walked forty miles to Cambridge to qualify as a voter when he was made a freeman, May 17, 1637. He was a deputy to the general court at Boston from Newbury, December 19, 1660, May 28, 1679, May 19, 1680, and January 4, 1681. He was chosen deacon of the First Parish, March 20, 1634, and died November 23, 1701, at Newbury. His will was made July 4, 1700, and proved December 29, 1701. The personal estate was £1,531, and the real estate was £1,160. "In 1652 many were brought before the court for not observing the sumptuary laws of 1651." The records say "Nicholas Noyes' wife, Hugh March's wife, and Wil- liam Chandler's wife were each prosecuted for wearing a silk hood and scarf, but were dis- charged on proof that their husbands were worth two hundred pounds each. John Hutch- ins wife was also discharged upon testifying that she was brought up above the ordinary rank." Nicholas Noyes married, about 1640, Mary Cutting, daughter of Captain John Cut- ting (a ship master of London), and Mary, his wife. John Cutting in his will mentions Mary, wife of Nicholas Noyes. Their children were: Mary, Hannah, John, Cutting, Sarah, Timothy, James, Abigail, Rachel, Thomas, and three who died young.
(III) Cutting, third son of Deacon Nich- olas and Mary (Cutting) Noyes, was born at Newbury, Massachusetts, September 23, 1649, and died before November 18, 1734. In 1673 he married Elizabeth Knight; children : I. John, born November 15, 1674, married Mary Noyes. 2. Cutting (2), whose sketch follows. 3.

He went to the civil war as clerk to the sutler of the Eigh- teenth Maine Regiment. He was stationed at Richmond, Virginia, and other places, and held this position till the close of the war. After peace was declared he returned to Ban- gor, and went into the stove business with his father. In 1891 the business was incorporated under the name of the Noyes and Nutter Man- ufacturing Company with Mr. Noyes as presi- dent and Mr. Nutter as treasurer. About this time the company built a large foundry, and began the manufacture of stoves and their ac- cessories. The business has increased till they now employ about fifty men.

NOYES (III) John, eldest son of Nich- olas and Mary (Cutting) Noyes, was born January 20, 1645, at Newbury, Massachusetts, and died there in 1691. He was a house carpenter, and was made freeman in 1674; he lived in what was then called the "Farms District," in a house of unusual magnificence in those days, having a very handsome staircase and carved banis- ters, and the fireplace was so large that an ox could have been roasted whole therein. This house was owned in. 1879 by Luther Noyes, having been remodelled somewhat from its original arrangement when it was built in 1677. Mr. Noyes married, November 23, 1668, at Newbury, Mary Poore, of Andover, born in 1651 and died after 1716. Their chil- dren were: Nicholas, born May 18, 1671; Daniel, October 23, 1673 ; Mary, December 10, 1675; John, February 19, 1677-78; Martha, December 15, 1680; Nathaniel, October 28, 1681; Elizabeth, November 15, 1684; Moses, May 22, 1688; Samuel, February 5, 1691, and one who died in infancy.
(IV) John (2), third son of John (I) and Mary (Poore) Noyes, was born February 19, 1677-78, at Newbury, and died June 15, 1719, at the same place. He was a blacksmith, and in 1708 he and Edmund Goodrich were granted the privilege of building and operating a saw-mill for twenty-one years. In 1703 he married Mary Thurlo, and their children, born in Newbury, were: Jane P., born September 21, 1704, married David Pearson ; John, Feb- ruary 13, 1706, married (first) Deborah Sa- vell; (second) Mrs. Esther Cobb; Elizabeth, January 16, 1708, married William Adams; Mary, November 24, 1710, married Benjamin Jaques ; Judith, April 8, 1713, married Samuel Fiske; Moses, May 8, 1715, married Susanna Jaques ; Simon.
(V) Simon, third and youngest son of John (2) and Mary (Thurlo) Noyes, was born No- vember 10, 1717, at Newbury, Massachusetts, died in 1816 at East Minot, Maine. His first eight children are recorded as born in New- bury, but the church records show he was liv- ing in East Kingston, New Hampshire, in 1744, and he moved to Minot, Maine, about 1774, as he was moderator of the first town meeting there September 17, 1774, and was elected selectman. He and his son James T. were soldiers in the revolution, their service recorded as from New Gloucester, Maine, but as the town and county records of that district of Maine were destroyed by fire, it has been difficult to trace his descendants, except his
son Nicholas, given below. He was twice married (first) December 8, 1743, Martha Tappan, born in Salisbury, Massachusetts, No- vember 1, 1726, died May 8, 1754, and they had five children: I. Mollie, born November 6, 1744, married James Crockett. 2. Martha, March 24, 1746, died 1770. 3. Sarah, March 26, 1748, married Luke Worcester. 4. Nathan, August 13, 1750, died October 16, 1752. 5. Simon, September 1, 1752, died September 25, 1773. He married (second) 1754, Elizabeth Eaton, who bore him nine children: I. Eliza- beth, November 15, 1755, married Edward Jumper. 2. James T., June 6, 1757, married Louisa Nash. 3. John, January 9, 1759, died July 18, 1761. 4. Nicholas, July 14, 1761, whose sketch follows. 5. Phebe, April 13, 1763, married James Parker. 6. Hannah, April II, 1765, married Samuel Bradbury. 7. Jane, April 28, 1767, married (first) Benja- min Manuel; (second) Benjamin Ames. 8. Benjamin, April 1, 1772, married Phebe Hill. 9. Rebecca, May 18, 1769, died May 16, 1773. It is said that four more children died in in- fancy. From the dates of birth it is probable that some of these might have belonged to each marriage.
(VI) Nicholas (2), second son of Simon and Elizabeth (Eaton) Noyes, was born July 14, 1761, at East Kingston, New Hampshire, and removed to Minot, Maine, where his chil- dren were born, and he died in 1844. He mar- ried (first) Rachel Hill, who died April 21, 1814, and (second) in 1821, Susan Shaw. He had eleven children: I. Sarah, born Novem- ber 30, 1792, died October 1, 1793. 2. Peter, born August 27, 1794, married Cynthia Ver- rill. 3. Nancy, born August 2, 1796, married Samuel: Hilborn. 4. Nicholas N., born Janu- ary 16, 1798. 5.

Sa- rah, born March 25, 1807, married Charles C. Atkinson. 9. Louisa, born August 29, 1809, married Osgood Robertson, in 1837. Two children died in infancy.
(VIII) Crosby Stuart Noyes was born Feb- ruary 16, 1825, at Minot, Maine. He was grandson of Nicholas, mentioned above. In his early days he worked on a farm, but as his strength was unequal to this work he moved to Lewiston, where he first worked in a cotton mill, and later taught school, and in this manner earned his way through an acad- emy, and meanwhile he showed his literary gifts in writing several humorous sketches,
Crosby S. norges
205 I
STATE OF MAINE.
several of which were published in local papers, and one of them in a Boston paper prominent in that day. As the severe winters of his na- tive state were too rigorous for his constitu- tion, he decided to try his fortune in the na- tional capital, but when he had proceeded as far as Baltimore his funds were so low that he decided to make the remainder of the journey on foot, and on the last day of December, 1847, while performing the last few miles of his trip, he was overtaken by a man with a load of produce for the Washington market, who invited him to ride, and thus he entered the city at the time the bells were ringing out the old year, almost penniless, and without an overcoat. He was fortunate enough to pro- cure work immediately, as route agent for the Baltimore Sun, and a few months thereafter was employed as a writer for the Washington News, and also sent letters and character sketches of noted men to papers in Maine, Boston and Philadelphia. He was well fitted for a journalist, and soon won fame among the press correspondents of the day. In 1855 Mr. Noyes made a trip to Europe, and as his means were small he journeyed through many countries in a walking trip, and after- wards described his travels in a series of let- ters to a Portland paper. He spent a few months abroad, and at the close of the year be- came a reporter on the Evening Star, a Wash- ington paper, started three years before, and with which Mr. Noyes was identified until the close of his life, more than half a century. His terse, attractive manner of writing soon became an attribute toward increasing the size and subscription list of the paper, and through the exciting period before and during the civil war, unusual opportunities were given to make the paper well known and widely read, and in 1867 Mr. Noyes procured from the editor an option on the paper, then organized a company to purchase same, becoming editor-in-chief, which position he held throughout his life. The paper was ever devoted to the welfare of the District of Columbia and the city of Wash- ington, and its columns were representative of the high thoughts and ideals of its force, who were not allowed to print the kind of matter to be found conspicuously in the "yellow jour- nals." He wanted no public position in the affairs of the community, and realized that a political life of his own would interfere with his usefulness in his chosen profession. He was a man of strong personality, and warm friendships, and all who associated with him felt his influence; his benefits were for all, regardless of their sect or nationality. The
Bowdoin College gave him the degree of A. M., though he did not graduate from that institution. He was a member of the board of trustees of the Boys' Reform School, and vice-president of the Gridiron Club, of which he had been a member for twenty-one years. He also belonged to The Oldest Inhabitants Society, of Washington, Washington Monu- ment Society, National Geographic Society, Columbia Historical Society, Anthropological Society and the Cosmos Club. He died Feb- ruary 21, 1907, at Pasadena, California, after an illness of ten days, from a cold contracted on his journey from Washington to California, and was mourned by the entire community where he lived, and his loss was widely felt throughout the country. In 1856, soon after he had an established position in Washington, he married Elizabeth S., daughter of. Rev. Thomas Williams, of Maine, and they had five children, Theodore W., Frank B., Thomas C., Maud E. and Mira C.
(IX) Theodore Williams, eldest son of Crosby Stuart and Elizabeth S. (Williams) Noyes, was born at Washington, District of Columbia, January 26, 1858; he was educated in the common schools of his native city and won the Amos Kendall Scholarship to Colum- bian (now George Washington) University in 1870, graduated from that institution in 1877, and from its Department of Law in 1882. He received from that university the degree of A. M. in 1877, LL.B. in 1882 and LL. M. in 1883. He then engaged in the practice of law at Sioux Falls, South Dakota, being a mem- ber of the firm of Boyce, Noyes & Boyce, for three or four years. In 1877 he became asso- ciate editor of the Evening Star, in 1906 presi- dent of the Evening Star Company, and is now (1908) editor-in-chief of the paper. He has been director of several Washington finan- cial and business institutions, has been direc- tor of the board of trade since 1891 and was in 1897 and 1898 its president. He is presi- dent of the board of trustees of the Washing- ton Public Library, is trustee of George Wash- ington University, ex-president of its Alumni Association, ex-trustee of the Cathedral Foun- dation of the District of Columbia, and while at Sioux Falls he was elected to a judgeship. With all his business duties he has found time. to use his literary talents to good purpose, and among the products of his pen are: "The Na- tional Capital," "Newspaper Libels," "Notes of Travel," "War of the Metals," "Finances of the National Capital Partnership," "Condi- tions in the Philippines," and "Oriental Amer- ica and Its Problems." In conducting the pa-
