His father was a large land owner in Gilsum and in that part of S. which was taken from Gilsum. Bezaleel bought land of his father, owning at different periods the Gibbs farm, at 206, also the A. B.

3. COL. OSCAR ADDISON4 MACK, son of Bezaleel Lord3 Mack, 2, was one of New Hampshire's most distinguished military men. He was b. in Nashua, Oct. 21, 1827, but passed his youth in Gilsum.

Miriam Mackentire and her daughter "Susannah." This was her eldest child. It is likely that her husband was a vagrant character, as he is not mentioned in this case. She had probably been living at her father's house, which was at 200. It was that same year that her father, Charles Rice, sold this Sullivan farm. According to Hayward's History of Gilsum, her ch. were four : 1. Susan2, (doubt- less the Susannah of the records, hence her first child), of whom we know no more. Susan, or Susannah, was perhaps b. in Gilsum, but possibly in S., and, it may be, out of wedlock. 2. Electa2, 2, b. in Gilsum, Mar. 29, 1789. 3. Sarah2 (or Sallie), who m., Oct. 10, 1830, Michael Murphy, a native of Ireland. She d. in Alstead. She had three ch .: Betsey3, Mary3, and James8. 4. Eli2, who d. unmarried. Miriam's children were probably all b. in Gilsum, with a possibility that the first was b. in S., at 200.

2. ELECTA2 MACKENTIRE, dau. of Elias1, 1, d. in Gilsum, Feb. 22, 1872. She m., Jan. 1, 1805, Zenas Bingham, b. in Gilsum, Jan. 23, 1780; d. there, Jan. 1, 1857; son of John and Sibyl (Wright) Bingham. He was a far- mer who lived in Gilsum, a few rods east of the highway on the summit of the Bingham Hill, on the road from Keene to Gilsum. They had eleven ch., whose records will not be elaborated in detail, as they had so slight a connection with Sullivan. The ch., all b. in Gilsum, were :
