a cotton-factory. This enterprise did not prove sue- eessful. After a few years he went to Dover, and was then engaged as assistant engineer on the Co- checo Railroad, one and a half years, in the con- struction of the road from Dover to Farmington. In 1851 he began the preliminary survey of the Ports- mouth, Great Falls and Conway Railroad, Rochester and Nashua Railroad, from Rochester to Nashua, the South Berwick Branch Railroad, and the Wolfbor- ough Branch Railroad, Exeter Railroad, from Epping to Salisbury, Mass., and was thus engaged till 1871. A portion of this time, however, he was chief engineer. It will thus be seen that Judge Whitehouse has been constantly engaged in some public way all through a long and useful life, having been land surveyor for sixty years, eivil engineer for forty years, justice of the peace and quorum throughout the State, and notary public for the States of New Hampshire and Illinois, judge of the Court of Common Pleas from 1841 to 1855, deputy sheriff for six years, erier of court three years, recorder of deeds six years, cap- tain in the New Hampshire militia, and served in the war of 1812, for which service he now draws a pen- sion. As pension agent he obtained one hundred and fifty land warrants and fifty pensions.
In politics he has been a lifelong Democrat of the old school, casting his first vote for James Monroe for President, and voting at every Presidential election since. He has held all the important town offices in Middleton and Farmington. He was a member of the State Legislature from Farmington in 1830; again in 1856-57, serving on the Railroad and Ju- diciary Committees.
He was appointed associate justice of the Court of Common Pleas in 1841, and served till 1855, or till that law was abolished. During a portion of this time he had Ilon. Hiram A. Roberts, of Rollingsford, and Hon. J. H. Edgerly, of Rochester, as his associates.
Hle married Liberty N., daughter of Paul Dame, of Rochester, June, 1822. Of this union four children were born, -- three sons and one daughter.
The oldest, a boy, George W. Whitehouse, was married, and died of consumption, leaving a widow, now living, and a daughter, who has since died. The second, Charles C., was a sailor. He was mar- ried. His wife died, leaving one son, Charles Wal- ter, who is now with his grandparents. Charles C. Whitehouse sailed as first mate on a ship from New York for Valparaiso. Three days out of Richmond the vessel was wrecked. The captain drowned. The crew were taken from the wreck by a Spanish ship; carried into Cadiz. Charles was delirious of fever, died aboard the Spanish ship, and was buried in the "ocean which he loved so well." The daughter, Laura Ann, married James E. Fernald, Esq., of Farm- ington, and has one son, George W., who is an en- gineer and editor of the Farmington News. The youngest, a son, Walter Scott, was a very bright boy, died young.
JOHN F. CLOUTMAN.
John F. Cloutman was born in New Durham, N. H., Dec. 27, 1831. Hle is of Scotch descent, his paternal ancestor having come from the Highlands of Scotland somewhere about 1650, and settled near Portsmouth, at New Castle, N. H. His maternal ancestors were of English extraction, and were among the early settlers of New Hampshire. He was some town official for more than thirty years. One of the name settled at Wakefield, N. H., and one at Con- way, N. H.
John Cloutman, grandfather of John F., the sub- ject of this sketeh, was probably born at Wakefield, N. H., where he followed the occupation of a car- penter. He had children,-Mary, John F., Ann, Gil- man, Alfred, Hersey, and Jeremiah A.,-all of whom were born at Wakefield. John Cloutman died at the advanced age of more than eighty years.
John F. Cloutman, son of John, was a' carpenter by trade and farmer by occupation. He married Patience T., daughter of Andrew Edgerly, and had nine children, three of whom died in youth, and six grew to maturity, viz. : Erastus F., who was a soldier in the Mexican war, had his name changed by Legis- lative enactment to Ralph Carlton. He was captain in Company E, Third New Hampshire Volunteer Regiment, and was killed at James Island during the great civil war; Martha (Mrs. James Davis) ; John F .; Horatio G .; James A. ; and Ellen F. (Mrs. Ed- ward D. Seymour). John F. Cloutman, Sr., died at Memphis, Tenn., at forty-eight years of age.
John F. Cloutman, Jr., whose portrait accompanies thissketeh, received very limited advantages for an edu- cation, but he has obtained by reading and reflection a good practical business education, and is thoroughly posted on all the important questionsof the day. Here- mained at home, working on the farm till he was some thirteen years of age, when he began to learn the manufacture of shoes. Having worked in the various departments of the business till he was twenty-two years of age, he went to Boston, April 22, 1853, and arranged to do work for Joseph Whitney & Co .; ac- cordingly, he returned to Farmington and manufac- tured shoes on his own account for the above firm, and was thus employed for nine years.
In 1862 he began the manufacture of shoes at Farmington, with the Wallace Bros., of Rochester, N. H., and was associated with them some two years, and the following six or seven years manufactured on his own account. In 1871 he was engaged by Wallace, Elliott & Co., as superintendent of their manufactur- ing interest at Farmington, and has continued as such ever since. Besides this, he was interested from 1875 to 1879 in the manufacture of shoes with the Wallace Bros., under the firm-name of Wallace & Cloutman, John M. Berry, superintendent. Since 1879 it has been Cloutman & Bingham, the Wallace Bros. having a special interest. John M. Berry still continnes as superintendent.

It is forty by one hundred and fifty feet exclusive of the boiler- and engine-room, | and four stories above the basement. They employ some three hundred hands, manufacture some three hundred and seventy-five thousand pairs of ladies', misses', and children's shoes every year, made from kid, goat, etc. It cost more than $500 per day for the labor, and the proceeds amount to more than $450,000 yearly. He has always been a Democrat in politics.
In 1862 and 1863 he represented Farmington in the State Legislature, when the town was strongly Re- publican. In 1876 and 1877 was elected State senator from his district (Sixth), serving on the "Banking Committee" and " Manufacturing Committee." He has been town auditor and town treasurer, and was a member of the committee that built, in 1881 and 1882, the fine town hall which now (1882) stands as a mon- ument to the intelligence and publie spirit of the good people of Farmington.
At the organization of the Farmington National Bank, in 1872, he was elected its vice-president, and upon the death, in 1875, of its president, George M. Herring, he was elected president, which position he still continues to hold. He has also been vice-pres- ident and president of Farmington Savings-Bank till the spring of 188I, when he declined longer to serve. He still remains one of its trustees. He is a member of St. Paul Commandery, Knights Templar, of Dover, N. Il., and has been Junior and Senior Warden of his own lodge, in Farmington, N. H., and Master five years. He has been District Deputy Grand Master of First Masonic District in New Hampshire two years, and filled honorable positions in Columbian Chapter, in Farmington.
Ile has been twice married,-first to Amanda M., daughter of Eleazer Davis, of Alton, N. H., March 4, 1854; she died June 4, 1868. He married his second wife, Ellen E., daughter of Samuel A. Kim- ball, July 3, 1869. Of this union two children have been born,-Nellie A. and John F.
HIRAM BARKER.
Hiram Barker is a lineal descendant of the first Barker, who came from England and settled in the town of Stratham, Rockingham Co., N. H., at a very early day. (For a more complete history of his an- cestry, see biography of Ezra Barker, Stratham, N. H.) His grandfather was John Barker, a native of Strat- ham. He was a carpenter and joiner by trade, also cabinet-maker. He went to Epping probably about the time he married, as all his children were born there. He continued to reside in Epping till his death, which occurred in advanced life. He owned a farm also, and was considered successful for those days. He was twice married, and had one son, John, |
He was a carpenter and joiner by trade, and a farmer by occupation. During the earlier part of his life lie was a successful school-teacher, and among his pupils was Governor William Plumer, of Epping. He was a resident of Epping, N. H., where all his children, except the two youngest, were born. About 1813 he went to New Durham, and followed his busi- ness till his death. Both Mr. and Mrs. John Barker were religious people, and reared their children to habits of industry and economy, most of whom be- came wealthy and respected in their various places of abode. Mr. Barker came to his death suddenly by falling from a barn. A fine monument, erected by his sons John and Hiram, in the Farmington Ceme- tery, marks the last resting-place of himself and wife. They were industrious, God-fearing people, and left the record of a good name as a precious legacy to their children.
Their children are (1) Mercy (deceased), Mrs. Eph- raim Mallard, of Laconia, (2) John, (3) Dudley (de- ceased), (4) Eleazer D. (deceased), (5) Sarah D. (de- ceased), Mrs. Gilman Cooper, of Wolf borough, (6) an infant, (7) Hiram, and (8) Eleazer D. (21).
Hiram Barker, the immediate subject of our sketch, was born in Alton, old Strafford Co. (now Belknap Co.), Dec. 21, 1815. Hle remained at home working on his father's farm till he was sixteen years of age. His advantages for an education were limited, yet by that same indomitable energy which has been one of his chief characteristics through a long and successful business career he has obtained by reading and reflec- tion a practical education, and a fund of knowledge which he nses to good advantage. In the spring of 183I, at sixteen years of age, he went to Portsmouth, where he was engaged as a clerk, but not liking that, went to Wolf borough, N. H., subsequently to Alton and Dover, remaining but a short time at each place. During the years 1833 and 1834 he was engaged in peddling tin-ware and clocks in New Hampshire and Maine. In the spring of 1835 he began mercantile business at Alton, and after remaining there one year sold out and came to Farmington, where he was en- gaged in trade till 1880. During those years he was extensively engaged in the real estate and lumber business. He also owns large tracts of land in Ne- braska, on which roam hundreds of sheep and cattle, and large real estate interests in Chicago, Iowa, Kan- sas, and Minnesota. IIe has large interests in stocks of various kinds, and was president of the old Farm- ington State Bank for more than fifteen years, or dur- ing its existence. In politics he is a firm believer in those principles of government as taught by the

father of the Democratic party, Jefferson, and ex- emplified by Gen. Jackson. He has held all the im- portant town offices, such as selectman, etc. Ile was a member of the State Legislature in 1849-50, and a member of the Constitutional Convention in the win- ter of 1850-51, serving on the Judiciary Committee. He has been a candidate for the State Senate from his district, and though defeated ran far ahead of his ticket, also councilor.
He married Maria, daughter of Reuben and Pa- tience Hayes, of New Durham, July 29, 1838. She was a native of New Durham, and died Feb. 29, 1880. She was a lady of culture and refinement, and her memory is cherished by a large circle of friends and relatives. Of their seven children, fonr died in in- fancy and youth. Clara, a young lady, who now (1882) resides at home with her father; Martha C., who died at sixteen ; and Iliram H., who is married and resides in Farmington.
The record of Hiram Barker is one of prosperity and great financial success. He commenced life poor, but shrewd common sense, integrity of character, sagacity, and ability, have united to make a record of which any man may well be proud.
Judged by his record and success, as developed by a liberal and wise policy, it is not too much to say that he ranks foremost among the men who have lived in Farmington. The history of Hiram and John Barker is closely allied with the history of Farming- ton. They come from an energetic stock, who as a rule have refused political preferment, but have given comprehensive abilities, sterling integrity, and saga- cious industry to the development of their business. Many of the successful sons of the old Granite State owe an imperishable debt of gratitude to their ances- tors for having bequeathed to them those cardinal principles of success which lie at the foundation of every successful life.
ALONZO NUTE.
Among the prominent men of Strafford County, N. H., who have made their own fortunes we place the name of Alonzo Nute. He came from a hardy New England stock, who have ever been noted for their love of liberty and brave defenders of their country's honor. His grandfather was Jotham Nute, a native of Dover, and was born Nov. 23, 1760. His grandmother was Sarah Twombly, a native of Dover, N. 11. Jotham enlisted as a soldier of the Revolu- tionary war April 1, 1776, and was mustered out at its close as sergeant. He married Jan. 7, 1786, and soon after settled in the town of Milton, where he followed the occupation of a farmer. His children were (1) John (deceased), (2) Jeremy (deceased), (3) Jacob (deceased), (4) Sarah, wife of William Allen, of Rochester; (5) David (deceased), father of Alonzo Nute; (6) Israel (deceased), (7) Daniel (deceased), (8) Ivory (deceased), (9) Levi (deceased), (10) An-
drew T., who is a resident of Lowell, Mass., and (11) Sophia (deceased). All of this large family were born on the old homestead in Milton, N. II. He and his wife were members of the Congregational Church. He died Feb. 3, 1836.
David Nute, fourth son of Jotham Nute, was born in Milton, April 30, 1797, and died Sept. 4, 1881. He was a farmer and carpenter. He married Lovina, daughter of Peter Cook, of Wakefield, N. H. Their | children are Alonzo, Jeremy O., Leander M., David Il., who was a soldier in the Fifth New Hampshire ; Israel M., a soldier in the Fifth New Hampshire Vol- unteers, and was killed at Fair Oaks, Va. David Nute was a Whig and Republican in politics, and a mem - ber of the Congregational Church. Ile was an in- dustrious, economical man, and reared his children to habits of industry and frugality.
Alonzo Nute was born Feb. 12, 1826, in Milton, on the same farm which has been in the family since about 1786. He remained at home till he was six- teen years of age, working on his father's farm sum- mers, and attending the common school winters. At sixteen, in 1842, he went to Natick, Mass., to learn the manufacture of boots and shoes, and was there employed till 1848. During some two years of this time he was in the employ of Vice-President Henry Wilson, and lived in his family. During the winter of 1846-47 he attended school at Leicester, Mass. In the spring of 1849 he returned to his native county and located at Farmington, where he was employed the following summer by Martin L. Hayes (deceased). (See M. L. Hayes' biography.) Mr. Nute commenced business for himself in the fall of 1849, in company with his brother, Jeremy O., at Farmington, N. H., and after four years they dissolved partnership, since which time Mr. Nnte has conducted his business him- self, assisted by his sons Eugene P. and Alonzo I., who have been partners in the business since 1875, under the firm-name of " A. Nute & Sons."
Mr. Nute's shoe-factory was destroyed by fire in the fall of 1874, and he rebuilt it in the remarkably short time of twenty days. Ilis main building is thirty- two by one hundred and eighty-five feet, two stories, and two stories above, thirty-two by one hundred and ten feet. Beside this, he has one wood building thirty-six by ninety feet, with two wings each thirty by thirty-six feet. The firm of "A. Nute & Sons" employ some three hundred hands, costing some five hundred dollars per day. They manufacture some fifteen thousand cases of men's and boys' light kip goods. These goods are made on commission for Messrs. Potter, White & Bayley, of Boston, and the proceeds amount to some four hundred thousand dol- lars yearly.
In politics he is a Republican. At the breaking out of the great civil war, in the spring of 1861, he buckled on his sword and went forth to battle. Here the love of liberty, as was more than once shown by his noble ancestry, bnrned in his breast. He went

into the army in the fall of 1861 as quartermaster of the Sixth New Hampshire Regiment, and remained two years. After his regiment had entered the field he was detached and placed on Gen. Rush C. Haw- kins' staff of the Ninth New York Zouaves, and thus remained till the spring of 1863, when he returned to Farmington, N. II., and soon afterward resumed his former business. He represented Farmington in the State Legislature in 1866, and the State Senate in 1867-68. During 1881 and 1882 he was associated with Messrs. Cloutman and Fernald as a building com- mittee in the erection of the town hall. He married Mary, daughter of Joseph and Betsey Pearl, of Mil- ton, April 14, 1850. She was born in Farmington, April 1, 1829. Their children are Eugene I'., born June 14, 1852; married Nellie Packer, of Farmington, N. H., June 3, 1881. (2) Alonzo I., born Sept. 21, 1853.
CHIARLES W. TALPEY.
Charles W. Talpey, whose portrait adorns this work, was born Nov. 16, 1835. Ilis great-grandfather, Richard.Talpey, was originally an inhabitant of Gos- port, Isles of Shoals ; was selectman of that town from 1737 to 1771 nearly every year. Moved to York, Me., in 1775. His son Henry was the father of Jonathan, who was the father of Charles W. Talpey.
Jonathan Talpey was born in 1793 at York, Me .; was a sailor till middle age, being captain many years ; served in the war of 1812, taken prisoner, and re- mained in the celebrated Dartmoor prison, England, nearly three years ; was deacon of the Baptist Church at Lake Neddish, York, Me., a great many years, and died in 1863.
He married, Nov. 25, 1817, Elizabeth Carlisle (daughter of Daniel Carlisle, of York, Me.), who was born Feb. 16, 1796, and now living at the old home- stead at York. Charles W. Talpey, the immediate subject of this sketch, was the eighth child of his pa- rents. Having received a good academic education, be at the age of nineteen went to Dover, N. H., to learn the apothecary business. In 1855 engaged with the Eureka Powder-Works, at New Durham, as clerk. Spent two years, from 1857 till 1859, in the West, which proved a financial failure, but was a large gain in experience. In 1861 he commenced a seafaring life, which he continued till 1867, being captain the last four years. During the war of the Rebellion he was employed in the Transport Department, which was a financial success.
In 1863 he was married to Mary Abbie Berry, of New Durham, N. H., a daughter of Elder Na- than and Mary Berry. It was then be really com- menced to live, for with his amiable companion he ap- pears to be the happiest of the happy. In 1867 he moved to Farmington, N. II., and engaged in the mercantile business in company with John B. Berry, under the firm-name of Berry & Talpey. The copart-
nership was discontinued in 1870, from which time Mr. Talpey operated alone till 1878, when he took as part- ner a nephew, E. T. Willson, under the firm-name of Talpey & Willson. In February, 1882, he sold out his interest to his partner, and now is engaged in the coal business.
Mr. Talpey has been an eminently successful man financially, always by his strict business habits and his unswerving integrity securing the largest pa- tronage in his locality. He has ever been closely identified in his social and political surroundings. A Republican in politics, he was chairman of the select- men of Farmington for the years 1870-73; town treas- urer, 1870-74; tax collector in 1875; was elected State senator from Somersworth District for the term ending June, 1883; was chosen clerk of Farmington village precinct in 1874, and has been chosen each year since ; is secretary of Fraternal Lodge, A. F. and A. M., of Farmington; also secretary of chapter ; clerk of the Baptist Society ; is a Past Grand of the I. O. O. F., and member of the Knights of Ilonor.
Thus we see Mr. Talpey, in whatever sphere he may engage, whether as merchant, politician, or in his social gatherings, ever getting to the front, and when we reflect that at the time of his marriage in 1863 he was not worth a dollar, so to speak, we can but attrib- ute much of his success to the counsel and love which he has ever received at the hands of his amiable wife. A beautiful home and a competency, good health and loving companions, what more is wanted here ?
TIIE HAYES FAMILY.
We can only start this genealogy, and leave its con- . tinuance to members of this wide-spread and highly respectable family.
John Hayes, the ancestor, is said by tradition to have emigrated from Scotland about 1680, and to have settled at Dover "Corner." Tradition also says that a brother, Ichabod, settled "south," as to which we know nothing. John had a grant of twenty acres between Tole-end and Barbadoes, March 19, 1693-94, laid out Nov. 4, 1702. Doubtless most of his posses- sions came by purchase. IIe married, June 28, 1686, Mary Horne. Tradition says she was then but thir- teen years old, of which we confess painful doubts. The date of his death we have not found. He had children ; order not clear (Fam. 1),-
