Philip, who will be again referred to; and Thomas, who was born in England in 1635, and married Ann Lambert. The children of his second marriage were: Mercy, born in Rowley, December 26, 1643; Samuel, born in Rowley about 1646, died in Eng- land prior to 1676; and Mary, who was also born in Rowley, and of whom there is no further men- tion.

(II) Captain Philip, eldest child of Thomas Nelson and the latter's first wife, was born in Eng- land, about the year 1633, and came to New Eng- land in early boyhood. He was a student at Harvard College during the days of its infancy, graduating in 1654, and he attained eminence in both civic and military life, serving as a justice of the peace and as captain of a company which was attached to the command of Sir William Phipps on an expedition against the French in Nova Scotia. His death oc- curred August 19, 1691. He was twice married, first, June 24, 1657, to Sarah Jewett, daughter of Joseph Jewett, who died prior to December 17, 1665, which was the date of her burial ; second, No- vember 1, 1666, to Elizabeth Lowell, who was born February 16, 1646. daughter of John Lowell of Newbury, and she died December 14, 1731. The children of his first marriage were Philip and Mary. His second wife bore him ten children, namely : John, Jeremiah (died in infancy), Elizabeth, Sarah, Jeremiah, Martha, Ruth, Joseph, Jemima and Lucy.

(III) Joseph, fourth son and eighth child of Captain Philip and Elizabeth (Lowell) Nelson, was born November 28, 1682. He resided in Row- ley, and his death occurred February 8, 1743-44. For his first wife he married Hannah Brocklebank, daughter of Samuel Brocklebank, and she died June 5, 1732, in her forty-eighth year. His second wife, whom he married in Ipswich, September 5, 1732, was Mrs. Elizabeth Jewett, widow of Jeremiah Jewett. She died May 24. 1761, aged eighty-one years. His children were : Jeremiah, Joseph, Moses, Mary, Samuel ( died young), another Samuel. David, Francis, Jonathan, Philip and John, all of whom were of his first union.

(IV) Jonathan, eighth son and ninth child of Joseph and Hannah ( Brocklebank) Nelson, was born in Rowley, July 27, 1723. He served as a soldier in the French war, and afterward settled as a pioneer in Perrystown, New Hampshire, where he assisted in constructing the first highways, and it is said that with other early settlers there he hewed the logs for the first meeting house in Mill Village. He resided on what was known as the mill lot, and occupied it for a number of years, or tin- til his removal to Sutton, New Hampshire, whither he was soon followed (or perhaps accompanied) by his two sons, Asa and Philip, from whom have descended a numerous posterity. He had been a deacon of the church in Rowley, and forever after- ward preserved his allegiance to the church, not alone contenting himself with merely professing piety, but labored incessantly for the propagation of religious work. In manner he was kind and pleasant, and in personal appearance he was tall, slender and remarkably erect even in old age. He died in ISO1. December 24, 1752, he married Han- nah Cheney, of Haverhill, Massachusetts, who died July 14, 1802, and it is quite probable that she was his second wife. as a record found in Rowley states that Jonathan Nelson, on March 10, 1743 or 1744, filed his intention to marry Mary Peasley, or Pearse, but no further knowledge relative to this marriage is obtainable. His wife Hannah bore him three chil-

dren : Betsey, born March 11, 1753; Asa, born April 3, 1754; and Philip, who is the next in line of descent. All were natives of Rowley.

(V) Philip (2), youngest child of Jonathan and Hannah (Cheney ) Nelson, was born in Rowley, June 3, 1756. At the commencement of the war for national independence he espoused the cause of patriotism, and after his discharge from the conti- nental service he resumed the implements of peace, settling upon a farm on Nelson's Hill in the western part of Sutton, where he resided for the rest of his life. In addition to general farming he transacted quite an extensive cattle business, and he also had other outside interests of considerable importance. He died September 4, 1841. His first wife, whom he married October 24, 1778, was Hannah Quimby, who was born in Sutton, October 18, 1758, and died April 16, 1831. March 28, 1834, he married for his second wife Elizabeth Goodwin. He was the father of six children: Moses, Jonathan, Judith, Hannah, Philip and William.

(VI) Philip (3), third son and fifth child of Philip (2) and Hannah (Quimby) Nelson, was born in Sutton, December 22, 1790. He was a butcher and carried on business for some years in Amos- keag. He was married, October 17, 1813, to Mary Teel, who was born in Goffstown, August 4, 1793, daughter of Aaron and Rebecca (Tweed) Teel. She became the mother of eight children, namely: Mil- ton, Judith, Mary T. (died young), John A. T., William, Mary, Susan and Celinda.

(VII) John A. T., second son and fourth child of Philip and Mary (Teel) Nelson, was born in Woburn, Massachusetts, 1826. He learned the butchering business, which he followed for a short time, and then became a drover, residing about four years in Franklin and moving from that place to Hill Village. Removing to Pennacook he carried on the clothing business there some nine years, and was engaged in the same line of trade for about two years in Manchester. In 1873 he purchased a farm in Candia, and cultivated it successfully for the succeeding twenty years, or until his death, which occurred in 1893. Politically he acted with the Republican party. In his religious belief he was a Congregationalist. His fraternal affiliations were with the Masonic Order. He married Deborah Nor- ton, daughter of Moses Norton of Cabot, Vermont. The children of this union are: Mary E., Flora I., John B., Allan H., William S., Selinda and Jen- nie W.

(VIII) Allan H., second son and fourth child of John A. T. and Deborah (Norton) Nelson, was born in Franklin, March 14, 1858. After concluding his attendance at the Pennacook high school he was employed as a store clerk in Manchester for a time. and in 1878 he went to reside in Candia. He has fol- lowed agriculture to some extent and was for a num- ber of years connected with the shoe manufacturing industry. In 1900 he was appointed deputy sheriff of Rockingham county, and is still serving in that capacity. In politics he is a Republican and holds the office of supervisor. He attends the Congrega- tional Church. He is a Master Mason, belonging to Rockingham Lodge, and also affiliates with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. In 1878 Mr. Nelson married for his first wife Clara Rowe, a well- known school teacher, daughter of Freeman and Angeline (Dow) Rowe of Candia. She died July 3. 1883, leaving one child, Philip Allan. His second wife, whom he married February 7, 1802, was Carrie B. Rowe, daughter of Charles H. and Jennie (Worthen) Rowe, of Candia. She was educated at the Pembroke Academy and also taught school

The children of this union are: John H., born Au- gust 1, 1892; and Clara B., born January 19, 1896. Mr. Nelson's second wife died May 19, 1905.

(1X) Philip Allan, son of Allan H. and Clara (Rowe) Nelson, was born June 26, 1883. He was three years with the John B. Varick Ilardware Company, of Manchester, and is now in New Mexico, with the Lake Valley Mining Company. lle married, August 19, 1907, Effic Lucy, of Man- chester.

This name is of Scotch origin, and NELSON in its primitive form meant "the son of Neil." The present branch came directly from Scotland, and its early members played an important part in the settlement of Rye- gate, Vermont. So far as can be traced there is no connection between this line and the one de- scended from Thomas Nelson, whose history has previously been written.

(I) William Nelson, or Neilson (the name is spelt both ways in Scotland, even by members of the same family), was born in 1742, in Scotland. In the year 1774 he migrated from the parish of Erskine, in Renfrewshire, to this country, bringing with him his wife and three children-William, Robert and Mary. The story of the exodus is interesting. In the winter of 1773 a company was formed by a number of farmers near Glasgow, in Scotland, for the purpose of buying a large tract of land in America. David Allen and James White- law were sent on to explore, and after a search of five months they bought outright the south half of the township of Ryegate, Vermont, which town- ship contained twenty-three thousand acres. The owner was Rev. John Witherspoon, D. D., president of Princeton College, and later a signer of the Declaration of Independence, to whom the land had been chartered by New Hampshire. In 1774 ten Scotchmen (William Nelson, John Waddle, James Nelson, half brother to William; Thomas McKeith, Patrick Lang, David Reid, Robert Gammel, Robert Tweadale, and Andrew and James Smith) came over to settle the wilderness, four of whom, Wil- liam Nelson, David Reid, Robert Gammel and Rob- ert Tweadale, brought their families with them. Nelson seems to have been one of the bravest men of the party. The first year they were in great danger from the Indians, and had to move to New- bury, Vermont. Before leaving, Nelson filled a large Scotch chest with a variety of articles, and buried it for safety's sake. The party stayed at Newbury for a while, but were obliged to return or starve because of their crops that had been planted at Ryegate. Nelson came back first and lived alone in a hut for some time, sleeping with his gun by his side, saying "It is better to die by the sword than famine." In 1776, when the town of Ryegate was organized, Nelson was appointed constable, and soon after was made selectman. In 1793 Nelson and two others were appointed managers of the company, taking the deeds from General Whitelaw, who could no longer act as agent, having been appointed surveyor general of Vermont. Besides carrying on his farm in Ryegate, William Nelson built a saw and grist mill on the Connecticut, at Canoe, later called Dodge's Falls, being the first to dam the river at that point. He accumulated large tracts of good farm land in Ryegate and Monroe, New Hampshire (or West Lyman, as it was then called), turning over to his sons William and Robert all the land bordering on the Connecticut river from Barnet bridge to the Littleton line. William Nel- son's wife, whom he married in 1765. was Jean

Stewart, born in Erskine in 1737, but not much is known about her. It, is said that she was short and thickset, and very industrious, and would work very late evenings, while she would banter her hus- band because he did not do the same. "Ould Wil- lie," as he was called, would retort that she ought to work more than he because she was the oldest. She was born five years before him, and died six year sooner than he did. She died September 15, 1825, aged eighty-eight years. He died January 23, 1831, and is buried at Rycgate Corner beside his wife and daughter Mary. Their children were as

Clinton, born September 21, 1844, married. March 29, 1866, Mary Moulton, who was born in Bath, New Hampshire, March 11, 1846. They have one >011, and live on the John Nelson farm in Monroe.

Edwin, fifth child of John and Harriet ( Kelsea) Nelson, was born at Monroe, September 1, 1836, and lives in Lyman, New Hampshire. He is a farmer and lived in the adjoining town of Monroe until 1872. when he moved to Lyman, his present home. He married (first), August 26, 1860, Phebe Jane Gibson, daughter of Samuel and Merey (Hos- kins) Gibson, of Lyman, who was born February 23, 1842, and died January 1, 1877. They had four children : I. William Stewart, whose sketch follows. 2. Albert John, born in Monroe, April 19, 1865, died there September 10, 1868. 3. Frank Kelsea, born in Monroe, January 21, 1870, lives in Lisbon. 4. George Edwin, born in Monroe, January 14, 1872, died in Lyman, September 23, 1872. Edwin Nelson married (second), Anna Hadley, in 1879; no children. He married (third), Irena Scales, in 1888; one child, Marian Belle.

William Stewart, oldest son of Edwin and Phebe Jane (Gibson) Nelson, was born June 6, 1861, in Monroe, New Hampshire. He received a few months schooling in Monroe and Lyman, and when quite young went to work in a peg factory in Lisbon Village. He began work as a "chore boy" at seven- teen cents a day of eleven hours, but believing then as now that anything worth doing at all was worth doing well, he did whatever was before him the best he possibly could, and he says that whatever small success he had had in business since is wholly dire to that idea. Very soon a better position was given him, and continuing in this way he learned all parts of the very complicated business of making pegs, and in 1884 became superintendent of the factory. In December, 1887, he went to Los Angeles, California, for the benefit of his wife's health, and while there was manager of circulation on the Los Angeles Times for the east side. He returned to Lisbon in June 1890, and found the peg business which had been carried on in a desultory manner for some years entirely dead. One factory with liabilities of more than $100,000 was in the hands of the sheriff, and the other had lost its market because of the poor quality of the goods manufac- tured, and it was freely said by those most interested that no more pegs would be made, as there was no money in the business at the prevailing export prices. After several interviews Mr. Nelson convinced Ovid D. Moore and Fred J. Moore that a peg factory under common sense management would at the least pay its own bills, and Decem- ber 1, 1890, they began business in what was known as the old mill under the firm name of the Moore Peg Company. Although pegs had been made in this mill for a number of years, it had never really been fitted up as a peg factory ; it was simply an experiment in the machinery line, and anyone who has had experience with the mechanical failures of other people will appreciate the situation of the new firm. Mr. Nelson had entire charge of the mechanical part of the business, and he over- hauled the machinery as thoroughly as was possible in the time at his disposal, and proceeded to make a sample lot of pegs to be used in securing a market. At this time split wood pegs for boots and shoes had ceased to be of any commercial account in this country, and the European market, being controlled by a few large firms was limited. The sample lot was submitted to the largest peg dealer in Europe, and he was so well pleased with the quality of the goods that he at once agreed to take the whole pro-

chetion of the factory. The business was a success from the start, in spite of the experimental machin- ery, and was continued in the old building until 1896, when it was decided to erect a new factory on practical lines. In this year Mr. Nelson made a journey to Europe in the interest of the business, and upon his return completed plans of machinery and buildings for an entire new plant, which was erected at the east end of Main street, Lisbon, in 1897. As has been said, Mr. Nelson believes in doing things well, and as economy is of first impor- tance in making goods for export, the main idea with him in building the new factory was that it should be a machine that would turn out the largest possible quantity of good pegs at the smallest pos- sible eost. His success may be judged from the fact that although the new factory was equipped with the same number of machines as the old one, the production of pegs was one-fourth larger, and the amount of fuel used for both heat and power was less than was used in the old factory for heat alone. As to machinery it is enough to say that all of the peg machines now running in the United States are patterned after those designed by Mr. Nelson in 1896. Upon the death of Ovid D. Moore, in 1902, Mr. Nelson bought the interest of the estate and Fred J. Moore in the business, and has con- tinued by himself in the manufacture of shoe pegs until the present time, under the original firm name of the Moore Peg Company, and has the distinction of being the only man in this country who manu- factures and exports shoe pegs. He employs no agents, but takes his timber from the forests and delivers the finished product in Germany, France, Denmark, Russia, Turkey, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Mexico and South America, himself. Mr. Nelson is a Republican in politics, is not (as he says) a "joiner," but he has a library that a reader would like to see. July 3, 1886, Mr. Nelson married Genevieve Moore, daughter of Ovid D. and Harriet I. (How- land) Moore, a lady of fine literary mind, who was born in Bristol, New Hampshire, November 10. 1856, and died in Lisbon, May 11, 1894. (See Moore, V).

It is of interest to note that Mr. Nelson and his first wife both descended from John Moore, (Moor, or Muir, as the name was originally), one of the Scotch Irish company who settled in Londonderry, New Hampshire, in 1722. The line on his side runs baek as follows : William S. Nelson, Phebe J. Gibson, Samuel Gibson, Mary Moore, John Moore, Elder Wil- liam Moore, John Moore ; and on his wife's side, Gen- evieve Moore, Ovid D. Moore, Joseph Moore, Cap- tain Robert Moore, Colonel Robert Moore, John Moore. Mr. Nelson married (second). November II, 1903, Eva Dennett, who died January 21, 1905.

FURBER The family of this name was early in the Dover settlement, and all the Furbers of that region may be de, scended from one immigrant ancestor.

(I) William Furber was born in London, Eng- land, in 1614, and died in Dover, New Hampshire, in 1692. He shipped from Bristol, England, in the ship "Angel Gabriel," and was wrecked in a storm off Pemaquid, Maine, in the great storm of August, 1635. He was later a citizen of Dover, one of the witnesses of the true deed of independence to Wheelwright, 1638, a representative in 1648, and in 1683 one of the two hundred and fifty citizens of Dover. Portsmouth, Exeter, and Hampton, who sent King Charles II a remonstrance against the oppressive administration of Governor Cranfield. William Furber married Elizabeth and

they had six children : William, Jethro, Moses,

Elizabeth, Susanna and Bridget. Two or more generations must have passed away before the rec- ords show a definite account of the Furbers again. (IV) Captain Joshua Furber was born in New- ington, May 24, 1744. He removed to Northwood in 1767, and died there April 27, 1827. He was a member of Captain Enoch Payne's company, of Lieutenant Colonel Senter's regiment. enlisted Sep- tember 4, 1777, intistered in September 20, 1777, and discharged January 7, 1778, serving in the Rhode Island campaign. He was also a private in Captain Edward Hilton's company,. Colonel Joshua Wingate's regiment, New Hampshire Volunteers in the expedition to Rhode Island in 1778, serving from August 6 to August 28. In after years he was known as "Captain of the Parish." The R' v- olutionary Records show that he was one of the selectmen of Northwood in 1781. He mantifac- tured potash on a considerable scale, by filtering and evaporating the lye of wood ashes. He also made what is commercially known as pearlash from potash, by calcenation. His. principal market for it was in Newburyport, Massachusetts. Captain Furber married Betsey Page, and they had eleven children: Moses, Catherine. John, Nancy, Betsy, Thomas and Josephine (twins), Mary, William, David and Samuel.
