He was spec- ially prominent in the national reform movement, seeking the religious amend- ment of the constitution of the United States; and labored indefatigably in this cause and in behalf of the education and evangelization of the Southern Freedmen.

P. church on matters of church union, on May 3, 1892, he asked his presbytery to release him from his pastoral charge and grant him a certificate of dismission; this was done and a testimonial expressing appreciation of his character and ser- vices was spread upon the minutes.

MILLIKENS OF WILTON, N. H.
Alexander Milliken,1 from the Lowlands of Scotland, resided at Castle Dawson or Dawson Bridge, on the river Boyne, in the province of Ulster, north of Ireland. He is said to have been one of four brothers who were among the sturdy defenders of Londonderry in the memorable siege of 1689, he alone surviving. His grandson James-who was probably reared mostly in the family of his grandfather-remembered that at his grandfather's funeral the military turned out to do honor to his memory as one of the survivors of the siege. From this Alexander, through his sons WILLIAM and ALEXANDER, have de- scended many branches and numerous families now scattered through the Union. It will be seen that the family designated "Millikans of Washington, Mass.," are of this stock by William Milliken.
Alexander Milliken, Jr.,2 son of preceding, born at Castle Dawson, Ireland (probably) about 1720, was by occupation a cooper and farmer. He evidently had two wives, the first dying in Ireland, where his eldest son, JAMES, was born eight years before his next children, as will appear. He emigrated to America, sometime between 1744 and 1751, and it is supposed that he tar- ried briefly with some of the Scotch-Irish at Watertown or Cambridge, Mass., soon after became a resident of Wilton, N. H. ; was a member of Col. John Hart's regiment in the Crown Point expedition in the French and Indian war; serving from April 27 to Nov. 23. 1758. His will, probated Aug. 7, 1798, is recorded at Nashua, N. H., his son SAMUEL being named executor. He must have been a man of much natural force of character, for he dealt extensively in real estate and left considerable for his time; and though deficient in edu- cation, he was called to fill many minor offices. His six children, excepting James, were born in Wilton, N. H.

They joined the northern army at Ticonderoga, mustered July 18, 1776. His children, of whom with fourth generation, were all b., with the exception of the first, in Sharon, N. H.

and was one of the 45 of Stark's men (15 killed) wounded in that his- toric engagement. He was first town clerk of Sharon, N. H., 1791-6; 1804-7 and 1809-11. His father named him as executor of his will. Seven children, whose names will be recorded with fourth generation.
