He was then ahout fourteen years of age. He was apprenticed to Deacon Asa Forrest, a tanner, and worked for him until just be- fore the revolutionary war, when he became of age, and at once enlisted for two months and ten days in Captain Jeremiah Clough's regiment. In August of the same year he was one of the men selected from Poore's and Stark's regiments to capture Quebec, and on September 10. 1775, set ont with forty days' rations.

At the age of eighteen years he went to Bristol. New Hampshire, and here learned the carpenter's trade, at which he was occupied for several years. After working two years in Bristol he spent a year in Gilmanton, and then came to Concord soon after attaining his majority. Since that time this city has been his home. His first employment upon arriving here was with Currier & Morgan, with whom he continued one year, and was subsequently employed for a period of fourteen years by E. B. Hutchinson. who was then the leading builder of Concord. He subsequently entered into partnership with S B. Danforth and Charles Kimball, known as Kimball, Danforth & Forrest. engaged in extensive building operations. Upon the death of Mr. Kimball, in 1893. Messrs. Danforth & Forrest continued build- ing together until 1905. Since withdrawing from this connection Mr. Forrest has given his entire attention to architectural work. His share in the work of the various firms with which he has been « connected consisted in the development of plans. and his recognized ability in this line has placed him in the front ranks. Among the recent buildings planned by him are the Nelson Block in Nashua. the remodelling of the court house at Concord, the town hall at Bradford, the elegant mansion of .I. E. Tilton, at Tilton, New Hampshire, the Methodist church in Pembroke, and the South Congregational chapel in Concord.

ligious differences were no doubt the cause of his removal from the comforts and luxuries of Old England to the inhospitable shore and savage wil- derness of New England, where nothing but the things most necessary to civilized life were obtain- able. The family has been represented in New England since the first narrow fringe of English settlements was formed along the Massachusetts coast, and has furnished in the space of two hun- dred and fifty years many industrious and respect- able citizens whose labors have contributed to the material, moral, intellectual, and educational growth of the country. Quiet industry and a mod- est and retiring disposition have been marked characteristics of the race from the carliest times. It is also a notable fact that the family has not n11- merically increased in the same proportion as some others that sprung from a single pair in the early times, but they have never lacked personal integ- rity.
(I) Thomas Hodgman was a resident of Read- ing, Massachusetts, as early as 1663. In 1667 the town ordered and agreed "that all the privileges of land, timber and commons shall belong unto the Present Houses, now erected. and to no other, that shall be crectcd hereafter." The name of Thomas Hodgman is on the list of fifty-nine persons who owned the houses referred to. He and five others did not draw land in 1666, at the "Division of the Great Swamp," for the reason probably that they had received special grants. He married. 1663. Mary. who was (probably) the young widow of , Ezekial Morrill. It is thought he had no child, but that he adopted one Josiah Webber, who took the name of Josiah Hodgman.

some time and also conducted a school of telegraphy in that city.

The surname Mead is of undoubted MEAD English origin, and in various forms de- rived from its root "Ate Med" has been handed down through many generations. The Meads and Meddes hail from the meadow or mead of ancient times. The play-stowe (play-ground) seems to have been the general term in olden days for the open piece of greensward near the center of the village where the may-pole stood, and where all the sports at holiday times and wake tides were carried on. The Meads of New England were not a numerous family previous to about 1725. although some of that name were in this country at an ear- lier date. They are now well distributed throughout the middle Atlantic and eastern states. The New Hampshire Meads are nearly all descended from the older family of that name in Massachusetts, a part of them at least from Westford and its vicinity.
(I) Gabriel Mead came from England about 1635 and settled in Dorchester, Massachusetts, where he was made a freeman, May 2, 1638. At his death, Alay 12, 1666. he was supposed to be in his seventy- ninth year. His will was made January 18, 1654, and was not proved until July 17, 1667. This indicates that he was a careful business man and made pro- vision for the future. The will names his wife Jo-
hanna, who was probably a second wife, and sons David and Israel, besides four daughters. The second son lived at Watertown for some time and returned to Dorchester in 1674 and was probably later in Woburn.
(II) David, son of Gabriel Mead, resided in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and was married at Wat- ertown. September 24, 1675, to Hannah Warren. He was admitted a freeman in Cambridge in 1683. His children were: Hannah, David, Jonathan, Joshua, Jacob and Moses.
(III) David (2), eldest son and second child of David (1) and Hannalı (Warren) Mead, was born 1678 and settled in Watertown, probably near the line of Lexington in 1712, as shown by the records of Lexington. He requested that he might have an interest in the Lexington meeting house for himself and family upon payment of twenty shillings, and it was voted that his request be granted. Ilis wife united with the church in Lexington, June 22, 1718, and in the following October their first four chil- cren were baptized there. She died October 12, 1723, and he survived her more than forty-three years, dying in Waltham, February 25, 1767, aged cighty-nine years. He was married February 5. 1708, to Hannah Smith, daughter of Joseph and Ilannah (Tidd) Smith, of Watertown. Their chil- dren were: Lydia, Moses, Joshua, Matthew, Susan- na, Hopestill and David.
