The name of Thomas Emery is found in Hale's report as the owner of the right of Nathaniel Pierce, which included the lot on which was built the Milliken tavern, afterwards the farm of John Felt, and now (1873) of Levi Brigham, and also the farm of Clarence S. Bailey.
Solomon Grout settled on lot 13, range 9,- the Isaac Bailey farm,-and was road surveyor in 1774 and selectman in 1776.

Robert Holmes was from Londonderry ; his brother Abram settled in Peterborough. He settled on lot 12, range 3, afterwards the farm of Joseph Thorndike, John Conant and Frank H. Cutter. The first frame house in Jaffrey is reported to have been built on that farm, per report of Grout and Gilmore.

Alexander McNeil settled on lot 12, range 5,
and was, by tradition, the first inn-keeper in Jaffrey. From the town records, he appears to have been quite a prominent man. In 1774 he was chosen one of a committee to procure preach- ing, one of a committee to examine the accounts of the selectman and constable, and one of the committee to build the meeting-house. In 1775 he was one of the Board of Selectmen, and moderator of the annual town-meeting in 1776. In 1779, at the annual town-meeting, the town voted that Alexander McNeil should not keep tavern. He probably left town soon after.

Most of the early settlers were born in the State of Massachusetts, some in Londonderry,
223
JAFFREY.
N. H., some in England and some in Ireland. David Bailey was born in England ; John Davidson and William Smiley in Ireland. They were a race of hardy adventurers, inured to toil and hardship, fit inhabitants for a new township. They were mostly young men, un- married, in search of a future home. They made a purchase of land, cleared a few acres, built thereon a cabin or log house, returned to their original home, and there married and took with them their wives, with their household furniture, to the home in the forest,-a bridal tour full of hope and expectation of a rich future reward; not only a reward of gold and silver, but one of a large progeny. In that they were not often disappointed, as the emigration from Jaffrey, in after-years, to the States of Vermont, New York, Ohio and most of the Western States, will abundantly verify. The sons and daughters of Jaffrey and their descendants may be found not only in town, but in most of the cities East and West, holding positions of wealth, honor and trust.
INCORPORATION OF TOWN .- The town was known by the names of Monadnock, No. 2, Middle Monadnock and Middletown, until it was incorporated by the Governor and Council, August 17, 1773, and named in honor of Hon. George Jaffrey, a member of the Council. The first meeting of the proprietors was held in the house of Joseph French, of Dunstable, January 16, 1750.
The first town-meeting was held September 14, 1773, as follows :
"Jaffrey Sept. 14, 1773.

ECCLESIASTICAL-Congregational Church .- The provisions of the Masonian grant required that a good, convenient meeting-house be built within six years from the date of the charter, and made provision for that purpose by a gift of three hundred acres of land. No meeting- house appears to have been built when the town was organized. The next year after, on the 26th day of April, the matter of building a meeting-house was brought before the town. The town voted " to build one on the common, near the senter this and the ensuing year."
