BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES.
HON. DANIEL G. ROLLINS.
these, Nicholas Frost, ancestor, it is believed, of all who in this county bear his surname, was one of the three who established the line between Maine and New Hampshire.
Rev. John Wheelwright and Elder William Went- worth were of the Exeter Confederation of 1639. Hon. John Plaisted was Speaker of the New Hamp- shire Assembly in 1696, and judge of the Superior Court for twenty years. Hon. John Pickering was Speaker of the same body in 1677. Maj. Richard Waldron, of the Indian wars, was long time com- mandant of the provincial forces, and Hon. Ichabod Rollins was judge of probate for the county of Straf- ford at the organization of the State, in 1776.
The subject of this sketch was born in Lebanon, Me., Oct. 3, 1796, but it was in this State that he spent most of his long and useful life, and proved himself worthy of his honorable ancestry. While yet a child he made frequent and extended visits to the home of his paternal grandfather, now that of Mr. Frank Hale, on the banks of the Salmon Falls River, in Rollinsford, and neither that town nor any of the towns about it has perhaps ever had an inhabitant more familiar than he with every road and by-way, and nook and corner, important fact and interesting tradition in its local history.
Mr. Rollins was the son of John Rollins and Betsey Shapleigh, both of unmixed English descent, and the ancestors of both had lived in America for almost two centuries. James Rollins settled in what is now New- ington in 1634, and Alexander Shapleigh, as agent of Sir Ferdinando Gorges, went to Eliot, Me., about 1630. Both these men were from Devonshire, England. They established their homes almost directly opposite each other, on the shores of the beautiful Piscataqua, and the farms which that river watered have never been alienated except by death, but have remained in their possession and the possession of their respee- tive descendants for almost two hundred and fifty years, and unto this day. Mr. Rollins was the third of eleven children,-nine sons and two daughters. All of them were born in Lebanon; all of them, save one, an infant, survived their parents ; and when their mother died at their old homestead all the living ex- cept one were at her burial, and there had not been a death in their family for half a century. Of such sturdy stock came Judge Rollins.
His boyhood was largely spent upon his father's farm, admirably located in a community intelligent and religious. It was there that his character and health, for which inheritance had done so much, was fashioned and strengthened, so that at early manhood, when he went ont into the great world for himself, he carried with him the elements and assurance of a suc- cessful life.
This history would not be complete without at least brief mention of the lineage and life of Hon. The year 1822 he spent in Boston, and he often afterwards loved to fancy the story of his life as it would have read had he remained there. From 1823 Daniel G. Rollins. Of his ancestry, we have the names of nearly a hundred who sleep within or near the limits of Rockingham and Strafford Counties. Of ! to 1826 he was agent of a sugar refining company in

HISTORY OF STRAFFORD COUNTY, NEW HAMPSHIRE.
Portsmouth, and while there, until his marriage, in 1825, he was a fellow-boarder in a private family with the Hons. Ichabod Bartlett, W. H. Y. Hackett, and Ichabod Goodwin, all then young, unmarried men, and the friendships which then began lasted through the lives of all. From 1826 to 1835 he resided in Wakefield, and from the last date until his death in Great Falls. Until 1848 he was engaged in mercan- tile and manufacturing pursuits, sometimes exten- sively, always successfully. Afterwards he was for four years president of the Great Falls and South Berwick Railroad. Of the Great Falls and Conway Railroad he was treasurer five years and president two years. He was a director in the Great Falls Bank six- teen years, and from the time of its organization until his death was vice-president of the Somersworth Say- ings-Bank. His fellow-citizens gave frequent expres- sions of their estimate of him. Five times in Wake- field they chose him one of the selectmen of that town. Of Somersworth he was selectman seven year», town treasurer eight years, and three years he was one of its representatives in the State Legislature. From 1857 to 1866, when he reached the age of sev- enty, and was thereby incapacitated by the State con- stitution from longer service, he was judge of probate for the county of Strafford.
Judge Rollins was fortunate in his marriage. It was during his residence in Portsmouth that he first met Miss Susan Binney Jackson, who was there as a pupil at a boarding-school. Connected with their early acquaintance is a pleasant little romance, which our limited space will not allow us to give. Sufficient to say that it ended, if it has yet ended, in a marriage altogether harmonious and ideal. Miss Jackson was of Watertown, Mass., of a family prominently associ- ated with the early settlement of that State, and of military distinction during the Revolutionary war, and she brought to her new home health, hope, cul- ture, good cheer, and a large circle of delightful friends.
They were married on the 3d of February, 1825, by Rev. Dr. Borie, of Watertown, Rev. Dr. Francis, afterwards for many years chaplain of Harvard Col- lege, giving her in marriage, and Mr. David Lee Childs, afterwards the husband of Lydia Maria, Dr. Francis' sister, serving as best man ; and they cele- brated their golden wedding on the 3d of February, 1875, only twenty days before his death. What do- mestic joys and sorrows, hopes and fears for themselves and their family were crowded into their fifty years of wedded life! During all that time, however employed and whatever his sources of pleasure, it was in his home that he found his rest, refreshment, inspiration, and largest delight. To that he gave his best thought and his whole heart. Of his eleven children, two died in early life and nine survived him, and are still living. His sons are Franklin J., of Portland, for many years United States collector of internal revenue in the District of Maine; Edward A., Speaker of the New
New Hampshire House of Representatives in 1861 and 1862, afterwards and for a long time United States Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and now president of the Centennial National Bank of Phila- delphia ; Daniel G., for some time District Attorney for the city and county of New York, and now Surro- gate there; and George F., of the Treasury Department, in Washington. His daughters are Mrs. Thomas C. Parks, of Newton, Mass .; Mrs. Oliver W. Shaw, of Austin, Minn .; and Mrs. John P. Pope, Miss Carrie E., and Miss Mary P., who, with their beloved mother, still enriching their lives and the lives of all the rest, keep the generous, hospitable doors of the old home- stead in Great Falls wide open, as they have been kept for more than a generation.
Mr. Rollins' opportunities in early life for education at school were limited, as were those of most boys of his time and locality, but his mind was disciplined by its constant judicious exercise, and filled by his natural aptitude for the selection of the best things to read and study and by absorption from all his surroundings. He was well informed, and along with his love for the useful and the practical he had a marked poetic taste, and several early productions of his own pen are rhythmical and tender, and abound with sentiment. He gave his children the advantages of the best high schools and academies of their times, and two of his sons were graduated at Dartmouth College. He was a man of unusual enterprise. Before living in Great Falls, and when the village was small, he erected half a dozen of its largest buildings. His steam-mill, on the Berwick side of the Salmon Falls, was the first in all this section of the country. Ile was largely instrumental in the projection, construction, and management of the Great Falls and Conway and the Great Falls and South Berwick Railroads. He was an incorporator of the Great Falls Bank and of the Somersworth Savings-Bank, and had much to do with the action of the town in the selection and purchase of what is now Forest Glade Cemetery, to which he gave its name.
