BATCHELLER OR BATCHELDER.
I. JOHN1 BATCHELLER, (whose last name has been variously spelled as Batcheller, Batchelor, Bachelor, Batchelder, and in other ways) was said to be of Beverly, Mass. He afterwards removed to Brookfield, Mass. His wife was Elizabeth. II. BREED2 BATCHELLER, as he always wrote his last name, son of John1, I., was b. in Wenham, Mass., according to one historical document, which probably corrects the generally received opinion that he was b. in Beverly, Mass. He was b. about 1740, saw service in the old French War, so called, was the first settler in Packersfield (Nelson), but in that part of the town which is now Roxbury. He was a tory, refused to sign the "association test," fled to escape arrest, entered the British service in the Revolution, was in the battle of Benning- ton, under Baum, was wounded in the shoulder, was taken to Nova Scotia, became dissipated, and finally was drowned, in 1785, by falling from a boat in the harbor of Annapolis, N. S. He m., Mar. 11, 1766, Ruth Davis, b. in Rut- land, Mass., May 27, 1746, O. S. ; d. in Keene, June 26, 1840; dau. of Capt. Peter and Rebecca (Hopcrisson) Davis. Their dau., Betsey, b. in Packersfield (Nelson, now Roxbury), Aug. 24, 1767, was the first ch. born in Packersfield, but in that part which is now Roxbury. The story of Breed Batcheller is one of much interest, but it properly belongs to Roxbury and cannot be detailed here. Among his ch. was Thomas Packer3 Batcheller, b. in what is now Roxbury, June 8, 1770; the first male ch. born in what was then known as Packersfield, 1.
1. THOMAS PACKER3 BATCHELLOR (or Batchelor or Batchelder, as his name was variously spelled), son of Breed2, II., d. in Keene, June 24, 1828. Hem., Nov. 17, 1805, in Keene, by Rev. Aaron Hall, Anna Baker, b. in Keene, Apr. 30, 1772, dau. of Hon. Thomas and Sarah Baker. We do not find a record of her death. They came to S., the spring after their marriage and lived between two or three years in the old John Dimick, Jr., house, at 242. They came from Surry to hat house and moved from there to Keene. Mr. Batcheller was a real estate speculator. When the second meetinghouse was built, at 77, he bought several pews. Not paying for them, he was sued by the town and finally surrendered them. Mrs. Batcheller joined the church in 1808. While in S., they had one ch., George Frederick 4, bap. in S., Jan. 5, 1809, who must have been b. in town.

was called Capt. Simon Baxter. His parents were Simon and Prudence Baxter. His father was a noted tory during the Revolution. He lived in Alstead. Ac- cording to Hayward's History of Gilsum, Capt. Simon was b. in Alstead, but this must be an error, for Alstead was not settled until about 1776, and Capt. Simon was b. about 1747. Soon after his marriage, he moved to Surry, where he d., Apr. 17, 1817. His widow, Margaret, d. in Surry, Sept. 16, 1825, ae. 75. Their known ch. were William2, Simon2, Benjamin2, George2, Hollis2, and Nancy2. Mr. Baxter never moved to S., therefore we cannot undertake to carry out his family record.
