THE TILTON FAMILIES. - FOUR BRANCHES.
The Tilton name is probably of Massachusetts connection. as to its immigrant ancestors, there being found three, brothers perhaps, from England :
1. JouN, of Lyun, in 1642 ;
2. WILLIAM (see [144]), of Lynn, 1645 ; d. 1653, and
3. PETER, who was afterwards representative of Hadley, Mass., ten years, from 1665, and deacon of the church .*
At least seven of the naine, doubtless descended from one or both of the two first above, are known to have been at Hampton Falls in Feb , 1733 (Bonton's Provincial Papers, Vol. IX. p. 342), viz. :
4-7. JETHRO, JONATHAN, JOSEPH, Ist, JOSEPH, 2d. (One of the two last being first selectinan " of y" parish," in 1734.)
8-10. JOSIAH (see [14]), SAMUEL, and " SHURBUN."
Though there is no evidence that a Tilton was among the citizens of Stratham at the incorporation of the town, in 1716, or in that town, or what is now New Market, as late as 1746; yet from one of those towns we must trace immediately our first Sanbornton family.
I.
11. NATHANIEL TILTON was probably a son of Samuel [9], but though his name is so prominent in the early history of the first church in town, and after him, through his descendants, the southern portion of the original town is now called, yet very few reliable data respecting himself, his birth, his ancestry, or bis immediate fait- ily have yet come to light. Ile is known to have rem. to Sanbornton from Stratham or New Market, as above ; perhaps originally, and not long previously. from Hampton or Kensington. fle tirst settled, be- tween 1768 and 1771. ou Lot No. 65, 2d Div.

Ile served the old church more than thirty-nine years, and May 8, 1811, at the request of Deacon Tiltou, it was " voted to excuse him from performing the services of a deacon." His latest surviving grandson [91] was taught by him " to say his prayers " very early in life, and received from him a strong impression of his being "a godly man, and one very strict in keeping the Sabbath, to prevent the desecration of which ou the part of his grandchildren, he used to tell them Bible stories."
