(V) Thomas (2), second son and child of Thomas (1) and Martha Wilder, was born in England about the year 1618. It is not known when he emigrated to this country, but he was admitted to the church in Charlestown, Massachusetts, in Mareh, 1640, and was made freeman there either in that year or in 1651. In 1652 a settlement was made on the Nashawaha river forty miles west of Charlestown, which afterwards developed into the town of Manchester, and to this place Thomas (2) Wilder and his family moved on the first day of July, 1654. His farm of five hundred aeres was located near the center of the present town. In 1660 Thomas (2) Wilder was elected one of the selectmen, and held the office, it is said, till his death seven years later. In 1640 he married Anna, whose last name is unknown, and they had five children : Mary, born June 30, 1642; Thomas (3), whose sketch follows; John, 1646; Elizabeth, 1648; Na- thaniel, November 3, 1650, married Mary Sawyer. and died in July, 1704.

chusetts. We know very little about his career, but there are indications that he fortified his house during the Indian massaeres, and made it a place of refuge for other families. On June 17, 1678, Thomas (3) Wilder married Mary Houghton, and six children are recorded : James, born in 1680, married Abigail Gardner. Joseph, whose sketch

Thomas (3) Wilder died in 1717.

(VII) Judge Joseph, second son and child of Thomas (3) and Mary (Houghton) Wilder, was born July 5. 1683, probably in Lancaster, Massa- chusetts. Although his early educational advan- tages were limited, he was a man of great intel- leetual gifts, and at an early day was made a judge in the courts of Maine, then a part of Massachn- setts. In 1732 he was appointed a judge of the court of common pleas for Worcester county, and from 1741 until his death he served as chief justice. In 1739 he was made judge of probate for Wor- cester county, which office he also held until his death. He is said to have been a man of in- corruptible piety and integrity. In 1702 Judge Jo- seph Wilder married Lucy Gardner, daughter of Captain Andrew Gardner, of Lancaster, who was born in 1679. She was the sister of Rev. Andrew Gardner who was accidentally killed by being mis- taken for an Indian during the time of the mas- sacres. The sentinel heard the approach of a man in the bushes, and receiving no reply to his com- mand, fired his musket and killed the elergyman just on the eve of the latter's ordination. The soldier was exonerated by the authorities, but he never recovered from the effects of the tragedy. Judge Joseph and Lucy (Gardner) Wilder had four sons, but no daughters are recorded. The sons were Thomas, born in 1704; Andrew, December 28, 1,06, married Elizabeth Carter; Joseph (2), whose sketch follows; Caleb, born in 1710, married Abi- gail Carter. Judge Joseph Wilder died May 26, 1757, and his wife died May 13, 1753.

He settled in Laneaster, that state, and with his brother Caleb introduced into this country the manufacture of pot and pearl ashes. The original ashery was at the outlet of Choaloom pond. The industry proved very suc- eessful and became a source of wealth to the whole country. Joseph (2) Wilder was a man of promi- nence and influence in the town and state. After his father's death he was appointed in his stead as judge of the court of common pleas, and he also became a colonel in the militia. Colonel Joseph (2) Wilder was twice married. His first wife and the mother of his nine children was Deborah Joscelyn, who was born in 1708 and died April 20, 1773. The children were: Joseph (3), whose sketch fol- lows.

They had eight children, among them Willis (2), mentioned below, and Joseph, who died of yellow fever in New Orleans. Willis (1) died Au- gust 7, 1807, aged fifty years. His wife, Relief, survived him thirty years and died at the age of eighty years. She was a famous needlewoman.

This name is variously spelled in the

VEAZEY old records-Veazey, Vesey, Vecsie, Veazie, Fewzie, Pheza and Phese. The earliest settler was William, of Braintree, Mass- achusetts, who was a freeman May 10, 1643, and whose name in the record is spelled Phese. He was "one of the petitioners injuriously encouraged in 1645. by our government to settle on Gorten's land." He died June 16, 1681. His will was made June 3, and proved July 27, of the same ycar. He married, in 1644, Elinor, a daughter of Rev. William Tompson, who married (second) John French, and died April 23, 1711, aged eighty-four. The children of William and Elinor ( Tompson) Phese, were : Hannah, William, Solomon, Elizabeth, Samuel, Ellen, Abigail, Mehitable and Mercy. From this William Veazie are probably descended the Veazies of Stratham and others of this article.

(I) Daniel Veazey, of Stratham, married Rachel Clark, who was born February 27, 1758, and died October 9. 1822. Daniel Veazey died in Bridge- water, January 16, 1824.

A branch of the Veazie family, origin-

VEAZIE ally of Massachusetts, has for several generations done pinoeer work in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Canada, where their strength and skill have helped to con- vert the wilderness into productive farms.

(I) John, son of Samuel Veazie, was born in Canada East, in 1819. He was a carpenter and joiner, and worked at his trade during the warmer months and then, leaving work and care behind him, he went to the woods and followed the streams and hunted and trapped and fished and enjoyed that freedom that few at the present day can enjoy. In this way he lived until 1862, having resided in sev- eral places in Canada, Vermont and New Hamp- shire, being then a resident of Dummer, this state, forty-three years of age, and having a wife and family. In that year hie responded to the president's call for troops to put down the slaveholders' rebel- lion, and on August 13, 1862, he enlisted in Company E, Fourteenth Regiment, New Hampshire Volun- teer Infantry, and was mustered in September 23 following as a private. He went to the front with his command and was in the service in the Army of the Potomac, as a member of Berdan's Sharp- shooters. But he was not able to withstand the in- fluence of the climate, and died at Washington, D. C., April 26, 1863, as stated in the report of the ad- jutant general of the state of New Hampshire. He married Lucy Hall, who was born in 1814, in Leeds, province of Quebec. and died in August, 1880, in Stark, New Hampshire. The children of this union were: Robert, Chester.

He went to Chicago and was employed as a brakeman on the Illinois & Western railroad running between Chicago and Milwaukee. In 1866 he returned to New Hampshire. Since 1866 he has resided in Stark, where he has a farm and is engaged in agriculture and lumbering, and is sur- veyor of lumber for the International Paper Com- pany of Berlin. He married in June 28, 1866, Mary H. Wheeler, who was born in Milan, April II, 1848, daughter of Albison Wheeler, of Milan, New

Hampshire. Five children have been born of this- union : George A., Edith N., Frank R., and two who died in infancy.

(II) George Amos Veazie, eldest child of Ben- jamin and Mary H. (Wheeler) Veazie, was born in Stark, February 26, 1874. He was educated in the public schools of Starke, the high school at Mechanics Falls, and Gray Business Col- lege, Portland, Maine. For five years he was with J. A. Pike learning civil engineering and exploring the upper country. In 1896 he was employed in engineering and lumbering for the Odell Paper Company, in Groveton. Subsequently he was a buyer of pulp for the Burgess Sulphite Fiber Company, of Berlin. From 1901 to 1904 he was as- sociated with M. J. McWain in the mercantile busi- ness, but failing health compelled him to leave mercantile pursuits, and he again returned to the activity, the pure air, and the sunshine of the lumber business. Since 1904 he has been president of the Juane River Lumber Company, incorporated, deal- ers in lumber, pulp and wood, with headquarters at Littleton, Mr. Veazie is a large owner of timber in northern New Hampshire, Vermont, and the province of Quebec.

They have one child, Ola, born December 18, 1903, in Littleton.

LEIGHTON The name of Leighton is evidently of ancient Saxon origin and can be traced in England back to the reign of Edward the Confessor (1042). The Leigh- tons of Dover are distinctly a New Hampshire fam- ily, as their original American progenitor was an early settler there, and their ancestors were promi- nent in both civic and military affairs.

(I) Thomas Leighton, who arrived from Eng- land in 1633, settled in Dover, locating on what was afterward known as Leighton Hill, near the old Piscataqua Bridge. He received several grants of land, became a man of prominence in the colony and was one of the signers of the Dover "Com- bination" in 1640. He lived to be sixty-seven years of age and died in 1671. His widow whose Christian name was Joanna, was again married in 1673 to Job Clements, a counsellor of Dover.

( II) Thomas (2). son of Thomas (I) and Joanna Leighton, was born in Dover in 1642, and died there in 1677. He married Elizabeth Nutter. daughter of Hatevil Nutter, who was an elder of the first church in Dover.

(III) John, son of Thomas and Elizabeth (Nutter) Leighton, was born in Dover and resided there his entire life. The Christian name of his wife was Abigail.

(IV) Thomas, son of John and Abigail Leighton, was as far as known, a lifelong resi- dent of Dover. He married Susanna Chesley.

(V) Gideon, son of Thomas and Susanna ( Chesley) Leighton, was born February 14. 1731. In 1755 he accompanied the military expedition to Canada in Colonel Joseph Blanchard's regiment, but later became an ensign in Colonel Gilman's

regiment at Crown Point, and from April 10 to November 30, 1758, he was in Colonel John Hart's regiment, his services in the French and Indian War covering a period of seven years. In 1775 he was a corporal in Samuel Hayes' company, and he died in Barrington June 2, 1776. Ile married Abigail Titcomb of Dover, daughter of William and Jane (Emmons) Titcomb.

(VI) Stephen, son of Gideon and Abigail (Tit- comb) Leighton, was born in Barrington September 4, 1763. He married Mary Emerson of Madbury, this state, daughter of Solomon and Sarah (De- Merritt) Emerson, also of that town. Solomon Emerson was moderator of the first town meeting in Madbury in 1755. Sarah DeMeritt was a daughter of Jolin and Margaret (Buzzell) De- Merritt.

Ilis ten children were born in Kittery, namely: Tobias, William, Stephen, James, Sarah, Betsey, Samuel, Susanna, Charles and Mary.

(V) William, second son and child of Tobias (2) and Mary ( Wooster) Leighton, was born No- vember 27, 1766, in Kittery, and probably settled in Portsmouth. No farther record of him is found in Maine and he does not appear to have gotten into the records of New Hampshire.
