(IV) David, eldest child of Samuel and Saralı (Ring) Jewell, was born about 1716, in Amesbury, and resided in Stratham, New Hampshire, where he died May 20, 1798. He married Elizabeth Lowe. Their children were: Joseph, David, Daniel, Su- sanna, Elizabeth, Sarah and Mary.
(V) Joseph, eldest child of David and Elizabeth (Lowe) Jewell. was born May 13, 1741, in Brent- wood, New Hampshire, where he passed his life He married (first) June 24. 1764. Susanna Graves, who died before March 4, 1777. After the last named date he was married to Miriam Currier. All of his children except the last were born of the first wife, namely: Elizabeth, Susanna, Margaret and Anna (twins), Joseph, Simeon and Miriam.
There is a family tradition that he served as a soldier of the Revolution, participating in the battle of Bunker Hill. The records show that Joseph Jewell. of South Hampton, was a lieutenant of Captain William H. Ballard's company, Colonel James Frye's regiment, at Cambridge, October 6. 1675. In the pay roll of Captain John Calfe's com- pany of Colonel Pierce Long's regiment, from Dc- cember 7, 1776, to January 7, 1777, in the Continen- tal service, stationed at New Castle, appears the name of Joseph Jewell, his pay being forty shillings. In the roll of the same company, entered January 24. 1777, Joseph Jewell's age is given as eighteen year -. He drew pay in the second company of Colonel George Reid's second regiment for 1777-78-79: Jo- seph Jewell is credited with $153.50. In the rolls of men enlisted out of the third regiment of New Hampshire militia by Colonel John Moulton, dated May 19. 1778, appears the name of Joseph Jewell, of South Hampton. The returns of the selectmen of South Hampton, dated February 7. 1780, Joseph Jewell is charged with eightcen pounds. paid April 5, 1777. May 10, 1781, he receipted for fifteen pounds gratuity for service, his wages being eighty-eight dollars. In 1780 he received $68.60 on account of the depreciation of money in which he was paid for service in Captain Samuel Cherry's company of Colonel George Reid's regiment, the Second, of light infantry militia.
(VI) Simeon Jewell, second son and fifth child
1740
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
of Joseph and Susanna (Graves) Jewell, was born July 20, 1776, in Brentwood. He first settled in Northfield, where he resided upon a farm for several years, and went from there to Sanbornton, New Hampshire, where he died September 10, 1832. He married, in Deerfield, May 19, 1796, Jane French, born in Salisbury, Massachusetts, October 28, 1766, and died in Sanbornton, January 11, 1838. Their children were: John, Milton, Jane and Samuel.
(VII) Milton, second child of Simeon and Jane (French) Jewell, was born in Northfield, July 2, 1803. At the age of eighteen years he began an apprenticeship at the tanner's and currier's trade, and after acquiring a good knowledge of the busi- ness worked as a journeyman for a few years in Deerfield. In 1828 he established himself in busi- ness at Bow Lake, Strafford, and in 1832 he had the misfortune of losing his property by a disastrous flood. He recovered, however, and continued the tanning and currying of leather and the manufacture of shoes until 1865, when his health failed, necessi- tating his retirement. He died June 4, 1869. He married Nancy Colley, born in Medbury, New Hamp- shire, May 3, 1808, and died in Barrington, April 7, 1880. Both were members of the Freewill Baptist Church. They were the parents of nine children, namely : John W., who will be again referred to. Hannah E., who died in childhood. Mary J., wife of W. T. Breston, of Barrington. Asa W., a resident of Dover. Enoch T., Charles M., Sirena T., and Betsey A., none of whom are living. Samuel F., also a resident of Barrington.
(VIII) John Woodman, eldest child of Milton and Nancy (Colley) Jewell, was born in Strafford, July 26, 1831. His preliminary studies in the public schools were supplemented with courses at the Strafford and Gilmanton academies, and while ob- taining his education he taught school several winters. He began the activities of life in a textile mill at New Market. He later took a clerkship in a store, which he retained for a year at the expiration of which time he returned to Strafford and took a similar position with Hon. Benning W. Jenness, remaining with him until Mr. Jenness moved to Cleveland, Ohio, when he succeeded him in business. In1 1881 he admitted his son, John Herbert, to a partnership under the firm name of J. W. Jewell & Son. This firm continued in business until the deatlı of his son twelve years later, when Mr. Jewell sold out his interests and retired. Mr. Jewell came to Dover in May, 1891, and took charge of the office of the Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Com- pany, and in January, 1892, was appointed general agent of the company, which position he holds at the present time. He is also a director and vice-presi- dent of the Merchants' National Bank, and a trustee and one of the investment committee of the Mer- chants' Savings Bank of Dover, New Hampshire.
Mr. Jewell is a lifelong Democrat. In Strafford he was honored by his townsmen with most of the town offices, and represented the town in the legis- lature. He was sheriff of Strafford county from 1874 to 1876, and a member of Governor Currier's council from 1885 to 1887. While in Strafford he took much interest in assisting the soldiers of the Rebellion, and the widows of soldiers in getting them established on the pension rolls by filling their ap- plications, writing affidavits, and letters to the de- partment at Washington for which he would never take a cent. He made it a rule to fill out the quarterly vouchers for all pensioners in town or out that came to his office, free of charge. For ten years he was postmaster of Strafford under the administration of Presidents Pierce, Buchanan and Johnson. Since
1854 he has served as justice of the peace. In 1903 Mr. Jewell was elected representative to the legis- lature from ward two in Dover, and re-elected in 1905. This ward has been one of the strongholds of the Republican party. He declined to have his name used for a third time; if he had not, there is little doubt but what he would have been elected again. His fraternal affiliations are with the Order of the Golden Cross.
Mr. Jewell married Sarah Folsom Gale, daughter of Bartholomew Gale, of Upper Gilmanton, now Belmont. The children of this union are: Sarah A., born August 26, 1856, married the Rev. W. W. Browne, of Evansville, Wisconsin, and died in 1898. John Herbert, born September 10, 1859, died in 1893, leaving one daughter, Annie. Mertie Folsom, born September 10, 1863, wife of Herbert Waldron, of Dover.
(II) Joseph, son of Thomas and Grizell Jewell, was born April 24, 1642, probably at Braintree, Massachusetts. He first lived at Charlestown, and kept the ferry between that place and Boston. About 1690 he removed to Stow, Massachusetts, where he owned a grist mill, which as late as 1815 was known as Jewell's Mill. This mill is on the stream which makes the dividing line between Sudbury and Stow. In 1860 the place was occupied as a carpet factory. Joseph was twice married : first, to Martha about 1670. His second wife was Isabel , who lived to be over one hundred and three. The Mid- dlesex records show that Joseph died before Sep- tember 2, 1736, when he would have been ninety- four years of age. Six children trace their parentage to Joseph Jewell: Joseph, Martha, John and James. Between Martha and John were two daughters, whose first names have been lost. One married a Townsend, of Boston, Massachusetts, and the other became the wife of William Skinner, of Stow.
(III) John, second son and fifth child of Joseph Jewell, has left no record of his birth. His death occurred at Stow, Massachusetts, February 5, 1781, at an advanced age. He married Eunice - -, who bore him six children : Silas, Priscilla, David, Daniel, Eunice and William. He may have had a second wife, as the records of Stow state that Eliza- beth, wife of John Jewell, died December 14, 1785.
(IV) William, youngest of the six children of John and Eunice Jewell, was born May 1, 1737. He married Lucy Gibson, and they had nine children : Jonathan, Jeduthun, who was a deaf mute; Lucy, William, Levi, Joseph, Timothy, Persis and Rebecca. William (3) died at Stow, Massachusetts, Novem- ber 15, 18II.
(V) Joseph, fifth son and sixth child of William and Lucy (Gibson) Jewell, was born February 17, 1771. With this member the family came into New Hampshire. He married Polly Frazier, January 10, 1802. They had three children: Abigail, died in infancy ; and Lucy and Joseph, who lived and reared families. Joseph (5) died at the early age of thirty- five years, in Hopkinton, New Hampshire, October 17, 1806.
(VI) Joseph, only son and youngest child of Joseph and Polly (Frazier) Jewell, was born in Warner, New Hampshire, March 3, 1806, and died April 17, 1883. His father died when he was but ten months of age, and Joseph was educated in the district schools of Warner. He was very successful in farming, in which occupation he spent his life. He cultivated a tract of one hundred and fifty acres. In politics he was a Republican, but he neither sought nor held public office. He married Rosanna Colby, daughter of Hezekiah and Annie Colby. She was born June 1, 1811, died April 25, 1872. They had

He enlisted, in 1861, in Company D, Eleventh Regiment, New Hampshire Volunteers, Colonel Walter Hartman, commanding, and served in this regiment until discharged by reason of disability. After recovering his health he engaged in the grocery business in Manchester, New Hampshire, for several years. He sold this and ac- cepted a position in a reform school in Connecticut, subsequently becoming assistant superintendent of the State Industrial School of Ohio. While re- turning to his duties after a visit to his home, he received injuries in a railroad wreck, of so severe a nature, as to result in his death at Warner, April 15, 1893. He married Sallie Harvey, of Manchester, and they have no children now living.
(VII) John F., third son and youngest child of Joseph and Rosanna (Colby) Jewell, was born in Warner, New Hampshire, December 29, 1845.

He is a Republican and active in political affairs. He was a selectman for a period of eight years and represented the town in . the legislature of New Hampshire in 1895. Ten years later he was elected one of the three commis- sioners for Merrimack county. He is a member of Central Lodge, No. 67, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, of which he was one of the charter mem- bers in 1876, and has held all the offices. He is also a charter member of Warner Grange No. 98, Patrons of Husbandry, which was organized about the same time. He attends the Baptist Church of Warner. He married, May 29, 1869, Nellie, daughter of Wil- liam R. and Almina Sargent. Mrs. Jewell is active in church work.

He then went to Manchester, New Hampshire, as a clerk, and later taught in the industrial school at Wilming- ton, Delaware, for two years. He returned to Warner and started a general store, carrying among other goods a fine line of boots and shoes. He is a Republican in politics and lias filled the office of town clerk for eight years.

There is no doubt whatever concerning
MOODY the identity of the American ancestor of this notable New England family, which has been made all the more famous by reason of the number of its representativas who have en- tered the gospel ministry, but on account of an error in recording the names of the children of the an- cestor some confusion has arisen and has called forth considerable criticism on the part of chroni- clers of Moody family history. On this point the author of "Moody Family," writing some fifty years ago, says :
"The indefatigable historian of 'Ould Newbury,' asserts that Mr. Moody had a fourth son, William, and endeavors to prove this assertion by giving the · date of his marriage, the names of his children, etc. We regret to be compelled to dissent from so high an authority; but he himself has furnished us with the grounds of our doubt. He says that Wil- liam was married in 1684, at which time the other three brothers had been married between twenty- five and thirty years. Supposing him to have been born near the time of his father's coming to this country, he must have been at the time of his marriage about fifty years of age. Then again, his death is put down as having occurred in 1730,. making him about one hundred years of age. His wife's death is mentioned as having taken place in 1702, aged thirty-eight, rather a young woman to be united to a man of his years."
(I) William Moody, the American ancestor and principal progenitor of the Moody name in New England, came from Wales, England, in 1633, win- tered in Ipswich in 1634 and removed to Newbury with the first settlers of that town in 1635. Here he was admitted freeman and received a grant of ninety-two acres of land. There is a tradition that he was a blacksmith by trade, and was the first person in New England who adopted the practice of shoeing oxen to enable them to walk on ice. Whether he ever acquired the enviable appellation of "the learned blacksmith" is a matter of some doubt, but that he was a generous patron of letters seems evident from the fact that so large a num- ber of his immediate descendants entered the learned professions. William Moody's wife was Sarah
by whom, according to the best au- thority, he had three children, Samuel, Joshua and Caleb. Joshna was born in 1632, Caleb in 1637, but the date of Samuel's birth is not known and it is generally supposed that he was born before his father came to New England. Mr. Moody and his sons were persons of considerable note in the civil and ecclesiastical history of Newbury and their names are frequently found in the various com- mittees of the church. Joshua Moody graduated from Harvard College in 1653 and began his min- isterial labors in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, in 1658. Caleb Moody married twice and had a large family. He was representative from Newbury in the general court of Massachusetts in 1677-78, and during the administration of Governor Andros was imprisoned five weeks for having spoken in censure of the course of that tyrannical official.
(II) Samuel, probably eldest of the three chil- dren of William and Saralı Moody, is supposed to have been born previous to his father's immigration
1742
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
to this country, but writers of the family history give no authentic account of his life. He took the oath of allegiance in 1666 and united with the church in Newbury in 1670. His wife was admitted to the communion in 1674. He died in Newbury, April 4, 1675. He married, November 30, 1657, Mary Cutting, who remarried, June 24, 1679, Daniel Lunt. The children of Samuel and Mary (Cutting) Moody were : Sarah, born November 16, 1658; William, July 22, 1661 ; John, April 1, 1663; Mary, February 28, 1664-65; Lydia, August 5, 1667 ; Han- nah, January 4, 1669-70; Samuel, December 6, 1671; Cutting, April 9, 1674.
(III) John, son of Samuel and Mary (Cutting) Moody, was born April 1, 1663, in Newbury, Massa- chusetts, and in the records there is mentioned in 1675 as the second son. He married, before 1693, Hannah - by whom he had at least two children, one of whom is believed to have been John. The will of a John Moody is of record in Newbury and probably is that of the elder John, made 1727 and proven 1736.
(IV) John (2), presumed to have been a son of John (1) and Hannah Moody, is also supposed to have been the father of John Moody, of Kings- ton, although time and continued research may re- veal that the premises here assumed are mistaken. It is hardly possible that John the son of Samuel could have been the father of Captain John Moody, of Gilmanton, New Hampshire, but it is settled al- most beyond question that John of Kingston was a descendant of William Moody, the ancestor, through his eldest son Samuel.
(V) John (3) Moody, of Kingston, married Mary Gilman, daughter of Jacob Gilman, and had children : David, Dudley, John, Rev. Gilman, Mary ( who married Daniel Folsom and lived in Gilman- . ton), Elizabeth (who married Abraham Folsom). Lydia (who married David Clifford), Dolly (mar- ried Humphrey French, and (second) John Cooley), and Saralı.
(VI) Captain John (4), son of John (3) and Mary (Gilman) Moody, was born in Kingston, New Hampshire, January 27, 1739, and died in Gilman- ton, New Hampshire, September 15, 1829, aged ninety years. He was quite young when his father died and after that he went to live with the family of Daniel Gilman, his mother's brother. He came to Gilmanton in 1763 and began clearing his land and making preparations for permanent settlement. His nearest neighbor on the south was four miles away and on the north there was no settlement nearer than Canada. Soon after his arrival his camp was burned, with all of his supply of pro- visions, some of his clothing, and his hat. He was obliged immediately to repair to Kingston for a new supply, and afterward he was frequently heard to say that his loss at that time was more severely felt than when (1821) his large two-story frame dwelling and nearly all of its contents were burned. In the latter part of the year 1763 he was taken sick, and knowing something of what was about to fol- low he made a supply of hasty pudding, brought a supply of water from the spring, then lay down in his camp and passed through the course of fever, without a physician or attendance of any kind. Captain Moody was an influential and useful citizen in the town of Gilmanton. He was selectman, cap- tain of militia and an officer of the Revolutionary army. In 1776 he enlisted a company of twenty inen and was its captain, and joined the continental army under Washington, serving three months and eight days. His house became the home of his
father's family, and his mother, an almost help- less invalid, lived with him until the time of her death.
Captain Moody's first wife was Abigail Swett, a sister of Elisha Swett, of Gilmanton. He mar- ried for his second wife the widow Elizabeth White, whose mother, Mrs. Evans, died at Captain Moody's house, as also did her son, William White. After the death of his second wife, December 14, 1821, (age seventy-five), Captain Moody married the widow of Dr. Gale, of Kingston. At that time he was eighty-three and she was seventy-three years old. She was his own cousin, the daughter of Daniel Gilman, in whose family he had been brought up after the death of his own father. The chil- dren of Captain Moody were: John, Hannah, Dolly, Elisha, Abigail, David and Peter.
(VII) Elisha, fourth child and second son of Captain Jolin Moody, was born in Gilmanton, New Hampshire, September 28, 1773, and died in that town September 21, 1833, at the age of fifty-nine years. He married, September 16, 1794, Betsey Weymouth, and had twelve children: Peter, Han- nah, Dorothy, Elisha, George W., John, Rev. David, Stephen S., Elizabeth, Mary, Job and Daniel.
(VIII) Stephen S., son of Elisha and Betsey (Weymouth) Moody, was born in Gilmanton, New Hampshire, June 25, 1806, and died April 27, 1893.
(IX) Mary H., daughter of Stephen S. Moody, was born in Gilmanton, New Hampshire, December 5, 1830. She married, April 7, 1853, Charles E. Plumer (see Plumer, III), and had three chil- dren: Etta J., Carrie E. and William A. Plumer.
MOODY Rev. Joshua Moody was the first min- ister of the first church of Portsmouth, New Hampshire; was persecuted for his liberal views; was zealous against the witch- craft delusion ; and was offered and refused the presidency of Harvard College. Other Moodys were early settlers in New England, but from which of the various worthy immigrants the Moodys of this article are sprung is not certain.
(1) Amos Moody resided in Nobleboro, Lincoln county, Maine, where he was born and died.
(II) Joshua, son of Amos Moody, was born in Nobleboro. He was well educated.and of sound judgment. He lived on the original Moody farm. In early life he learned ship carpentry, and in later years besides taking care of his farm he did a considerable amount of contracting, and building. For many years he was a justice of the peace. He was very religious, a leader in the construction of the First Baptist Church of Nobleboro, and the chief contributor to the fund which built it. He married Hannah Densmore, daughter of Asa Dens- more. There were children of this union: Atwell Alonzo, Thurlow Elwell, Willis Elvin, Louis Alton, Sarah Jane, Frank 1. and Mary.
(III) Atwell Alonzo, eldest child of Joshua and Hannah (Densmore) Moody, was born in Noble- boro, March 8, 1850. He worked his way through the public schools, and then engaged in farming in Waldoboro. In a few years he became a retail oil dealer at Jefferson, Maine, and carried on that business three years, till 1868, when taking what money he had accumulated he went to Nevada. After staying some time in Dayton he went to Eureka and engaged in freighting. conveying ore from the mines to the smelters at Eureka, and returning with various supplies for mines. He employed sixteen-horse teams, and being a diligent man and fortunate, he soon had several of these
1743
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
teams and a number of men in his employ. Seeing the necessity of a boarding house at Eureka he built one where he served four hundred dinners daily. It was but a step from freighting to general teaming, and in a short time Mr. Moody went into contract work where heavy teams were required and put in foundations for buildings, constructed streets, and other similar work. Later he acquired a half interest in the Butter-Cup gold mines at Eureka, for the development of which he supplied the capital. This property was soon found to contain a bed of rich ore, and a syndicate, after trying in vain to buy the property, jumped the claim. An ejectment suit was brought by Mr. Moody, and after being carried along for some time the case was tried; but the jury in the face of conclusive evidence in support of the claim of Mr. Moody and his partner, de- cided in favor of the syndicate. The money spent in developing the mine and in litigation was a serious loss to Mr. Moody. About the time of this disaster he was injured while at work in a mine, and for about a year following he lay in a hos- pital. So much misfortune left him without means and he returned to the east and engaged in in- stalling woolen and cotton mill machinery, at which he is an expert. Constant handling of this machinery has made him very familiar with its structure, and enabled him to invent some labor and time-saving devices to be used in the operation of it, which he put on the market. Mr. Moody is a member of the following secret orders : Independent Order of Odd Fellows, in which he is a past grand, and was for four years district deputy ; Daughters of Rebecca, of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons ; Order of the Eastern Star; Knights of Pythias; Improved Order of Red Men; the Ancient Order of United Workmen. He married, in Nobleboro, 1869, Mary Edna Nash, who was born in Nobleboro, April 11, 1850, daughter of Church (2) and Susanna (Brown) Nash, of Jefferson, Maine. To them have been born seven children: Lillian, Grace, Fred. Elvin, Lila Maud, Harry Alton, Ethel Evelyn and Edwin Everett (twins). Lillian, born in Dayton, Nevada, died young. Grace, born in Eureka, Ne- vada, in 1872, married Joseph F. Starrett, M. D., of Bangor, Maine, where they now reside. Fred. El- vin, born July 19, 1874, in Jefferson, Maine, is married and lives in Cleveland, Ohio. Lila Maud, born March 8. 1876, died August 5. 1900. Harry Alton is the subject of the next paragraph. Ethel Evelyn, born May 26, 1884, at Waldoboro. Edwin E., born May 26, 1884, married Myrtie May, daugh- ter of John and Susan Jane Bragg, of Brookline, Massachusetts, and is now in business in Boston.
