THE CRITCHIETT FAMILY.


1. THOMAS CRITCHETT seems to have been the unique character among the early settlers of town, of whom varions langhable accounts were given. Of his origin and pedigree nothing is known. He was not here, in all probability, during the winter of 1768, and yet was fairly established as the owner of land, in Lot No. 26, 1st Div., iu July, 1770, when the first road was returned ! His house on that lot was at Site 1, some 60 rods back from the Bay at the old Copp place. He m. - Towle, from Meredith ; afterwards lived opposite the present John Perkins', Site 1, Lot No. 51, 1st Div:, being there in 1795. He, at least, rem. to Canada, and there d. She d. with her dan.

THE CROCKETT FAMILY.


The earliest mention of the family name in New England is in Sav- age's General Dietionary, Vol. I., page 475 : " Thomas Crockett, of Kittery, 1648," and of " York, 1652," being the same, doubtless, as the Thomas Crockitt, who is said, in letter of Ambrose Gibbens, July 13, 1633, to have been one of the four men who were then with him, in the infant colony of " Newichwanieke" (Salmon Falls). - See Belknap's History, Farmer's Ed., page 425.
