Albert J. Gilmore was educated in the district schools of Calais and Castine, Me., and gradu- ated from the high school of Orono, Me. When out of high school he was employed by Samuel Taylor of Greenbush, Me., as a clerk in a general store, where he remained about four years. He
then went to Bath, Me., and surveyed lumber for the Treat & Lang Co. for about two years. From Bath he moved to Gorham, N. H., where he put in three years keeping books and survey- ing lumber for the J. F. Thompson Co. In 1888 he came to Lisbon, N. H., and became book- keeper and surveyor for J. K. Atwood, and has worked for him ever since. Politically he is a Republican.
In 1889 he was united in matrimony with Vic- toria Hagan, who was born in the Dominion of Canada, but who had made her home with Mr. J. K. Atwood ever since she was ten years old. They are both influential members of the Con- gregational Church. Socially Mr. Gilmore be- longs to Glen Lodge, No. 54, I. O. O. F., of Gor- ham, N. H .; Littleton Encampment of Littleton, N. H .; and to the Patriarchs Militant of Woods- ville, N. H. We are pleased to present Mr. Gil- more's portrait on a preceding page.
FRANCIS F. BLAKE, a leading farmer of the town of Plymouth, is the son of Nathan Blake, grandson of Jedediah Blake, and great- grandson of Nathan Blake.
Jedediah Blake was born in Epping, N. H., where he passed his early years and obtained his education. After his marriage. he moved to Bol- ton, Canada, where he remained a few years en- gaged in farming, finally going from there to the town of Alexandria, N. H., where he spent the remainder of his days. He lived to the age of eighty-eight. His wife was Sally Hoyet; seventy- four happy years, overflowing with tender mem- ories, were allotted to her. They brought up to maturity five children: Mary (Gale); Nathan; Hannah; Joseph; and Jedediah.
Nathan Blake, the second child of Jedediah Blake, was born in Bolton, Dominion of Canada. He was about four years old when his parents moved to Alexandria. In that town he received his education, and passed the greater portion of his life. At the age of sixty-one he moved with his family to Epping, and lived there seven years. He then took up his residence in Plymouth, and made it his home till he was called to his account at the age of seventy-four. He was a farmer, but found considerable time to devote to the luniber-

ing business. He married Ruth, daughter of Moses and Ruth (Cross) Simonds. His wife passed away at the age of eighty-five. Ten chil- dren were the result of this union: Lucy; Levi S., who died in his youth; and Levi F., 2nd, who (lied at the age of sixty years; Jennie F. (Board- man); Louisa; Laura, who resides with her brother; Alonzo; George; Amanda, who died at an early age; and Francis F., the subject of this sketch.
Francis F. Blake was born June 27, 1850. His life has been spent on the farm engaged in agri- cultural pursuits. During his father's life he was
associated with him in the lumbering business. In 1884 he was joined in wedlock to Cora L., daughter of Charles and Eliza Heath of Bridge- water, N. H. She departed this life Nov. 30, 1890, at the age of twenty-seven years, leaving a family of two children: Harry N. and Lulu R.
Mr. Blake has lived in Plymouth since 1879. He has made a reputation that is to be envied for his shrewd business tact and for his success as a farmer; he is most highly thought of by all his acquaintances. He is a Republican, and has performed public service in the capacity of town selectman.
