Hon. Alonso Nute was born in Milton, Feb. 12, 1826; he was a son of David Nute and Lavina Cook, his wife, who was daughter of Peter Cook of Wakefield. He worked on his father's farm until he was sixteen years old, attending school in the winter time. In 1842 he went to Natick, Mass., where Henry Wilson had gone before him, who gave Alonzo a hint that it would be a good place for him to make a start in the world of work and business. Mr. Nute worked at the shoe manufacturing business there six years, and mastered all departments of the business of making and selling boots and shoes. During two years of the time he was an employe of Mr. Wilson and lived in his family; so they were life-long friends and heart to heart politicians of the Free Soil, Republican stamp. He returned to Farmington in 1848 and became boss in one of the departments of Martin 1 .. Hayes shoe shop. But in the fall of 1849 he set up business for him- self in the manufacture of shoes in company with his brother Jeremy O. Nute. In 1854 they dissolved partnership and he carried on the business successfully alone until his sons Eugene P. and Alonzo I. became of age to engage in the business with him; then the firm name became A. Nute & Sons and so continued as long as he remained in the business.
In the Civil war Mr. Nute was quartermaster for the Sixth New Hamp- shire Regiment for two years. He was representative from Farmington in the State Legislature in 1866, and State Senator in 1867-68. Later he was Congressman from the first district, and made a good record in the House at Washington. He was an able, courteous and successful man in business and in politics.
Dr. David Taylor Parker was born in Bradford, Vt., April 10, 1813; he was a son of Reverend Clemens and Rachel (Taylor) Parker. His father was a Presbyterian minister, so the son was well born and well brought up. For a while the son was a student at the academy in Alfred, Me. When he was eighteen years old he commenced teaching winter district schools, and he was a good instructor. When he was twenty years old he began the study of

medicine with Dr. L. M. Baker at Great Falls, as Somersworth was then called. He graduated from Bowdoin College in May, 1836. He commenced the practice of his profession in Farmington, March 3, 1837, and was in successful practice there for more than half a century. The field of practice was not confined to that town, but his services were in demand in all the towns around, as the people had perfect confidence in his skill as a physician.
In 1864-65 Dr. Parker was the Republican representative in the Legisla- ture, although the general ticket of the Democratic party was successful by a large majority. He was president of the Strafford District Medical Society in 1842-43; he was president of the New Hampshire Medical Society in 1872. For many years he was a member of the American Medical Association, as well as of several other important professional societies. He always kept well read up in the latest discoveries in the medical science, so that none of the fresh graduates from Harvard Medical School or any other school could compete with him in the treatment of difficult cases. Dr. Parker was one of New Hampshire's great and good doctors.

CHAPTER LXVI HISTORY OF MILTON (I)
LOCATION IN THE COUNTY-THE FIRST SETTLEMENTS AND BY WHOM
Milton is the northeasternly town in Strafford county, and is situated upon the Salmon Falls river, which forms its entire easterly boundary, and separates it from Acton and Lebanon in the State of Maine. It is bounded southerly by Rochester, westerly by Farmington, and northerly by Middleton and Wakefield. The west branch of the Lebanon Falls river also runs through the town, making a junction with the east branch at the head of Northeast pond.
The town has a territorial extent of about eighteen thousand acres. The surface is somewhat broken, but the soil is generally good and well adapted to farming purposes. The Teneriffe Mountain is a bold, rocky elevation, near the center of the town, affording excellent pasturage. The town is abund- antly watered, being traversed by numerous streams and brooks beside those already named. The three ponds from which the principal village takes its name are a trio of beautiful ponds spread out at the base of the mountain, affording excellent boating and fishing, and are a favorite resort of the dis- ciples of the immortal Isaac.
The early history of this town is identified with that of Rochester, it having formed a part of that town under the name of the Third or Northeast Parish prior to June II, 1802, at which time it was incorporated into a separate town by legislative enactment. On account of the destruction of the records by fire, it has been found somewhat difficult to determine just when, where, or by whom the first permanent settlement was made in this town. It is, however, very certain that it was in the southern part and probably as early as 1760, or very near that time.
The writer is of opinion that Jonathan Twombly is entitled to the honor of making the first settlement near the Twombly brook, and upon the farm now owned by Hon. Luther Hayes, and sometimes called the Bragdon farm, Samuel Bragdon having purchased the farm from a son of Mr. Twombly in about 1800. Mr. Twombly and his wife and some of their children were,
508
509
AND REPRESENTATIVE CITIZENS
no doubt, buried upon this farm. An ancient headstone records that Hannah Twombly died in February, 1769. She was doubtless a daughter of Jonathan and this is believed to be the oldest grave in Milton.
Richard Walker was also a very early settler and a near neighbor of Mr. Twombly; probably there was very little difference in the time of their settlement. Mr. Walker died in 1813 at the age of seventy-seven years, and he and his wife are buried very near their old neighbors. The date of Mr. Twombly's settlement is obtained from the birth of his daughter, Betsey, who afterwards married James C. Hayes. She was born June 4, 1862, and is believed to have been the first white child born in town.
John Twombly, not supposed to be a near relative of Jonathan, made a settlement in what is now known as the Varney neighborhood in 1771 or 1772, and had for nearest neighbor one Jenkins, who lived upon the Goodwin hill at that time. The Christian name of Mr. Jenkins is not known, and no subsequent knowledge is had of him. Mr. Twombly very soon removed to and made a permanent settlement in the Lyman neighborhood, where he and his good wife died at a ripe old age. Our respected townsman, Theodore C. Lyman, was an adopted son of this worthy couple, and always spoke of them with much affection.
The next settlement is believed to have been made upon Plumer's Ridge in 1772 or 1773, or very near that time, and probably by Benjamin Scates. Beard Plumer and his brother Joseph, sons of the Hon. John Plumer, of Rochester, however, were very early settlers, and it has been sometimes questioned whether they were not the first in this locality. James C. Hayes, David Wallingford, William Palmer, Elijah Horn, Moses Chamberlain, and others, very soon followed and opened up settlements in this neighborhood. This was soon followed by quite a rush of settlers to the west side of the town, Daniel Hayes, Caleb Wakeham, Enoch Varney, Samuel Nute, William Wentworth, William Tuttle, Ichabod Hayes, James Hayes, Ebenezer Coursan, and Stephen Meseron being among the first, Jeremiah Cook, Dudley Burn- ham, Jotham Nute, Otis Pinkham, Ephraim Plumer, John Twombly, James Varney, John Varney, William Mathes, and others coming soon after.
Early in the summer of 1776, Samuel Twombly, a nephew of the first settler, Jonathan Twombly, could have been seen, with a pack well strapped upon his back, wending his way up the side of Teneriffe, to search out a liome for his lady love, returning and bringing her to this wild region the next year. Stephen Wentworth very soon became a neighbor of the Twomblys.
It does not appear that any settlement was made east of the West Branch river prior to about 1785 or 1786, and among the earlier settlers there may be

named, among others, Reuben Jones, Paul Jewett, Amos Witham, the Berrys, the Millers, Ephraim Twombly, Paul Wentworth, Caleb Wingate, David Coursan, John McDuffee, and soon after Hatwell Nutter, Thomas Applebee, William Applebee, John Hart, John Remick, Jr., Jonathan Dearborn, Joseph Dearborn, and many others.
Among the first who settled at Three Ponds were Samuel Palmer, Levi Burgen, John Fish, Paul Jewett, Pelatiah Hanscom, Robert McGeoch, and others. Daniel Door and Jonathan Door settled at the head of the Pond quite early. The old tavern-house at Three Ponds, burned a few years ago, was built by Robert McGeoch in 1786 or 1787, and was perhaps the first tavern in town.
April 9, 1787, the town of Rochester "voted to raise a tax on the supposed first parish, to pay Rev. Joseph Haven his salary, and also voted to raise an equivalent tax on the out parts of the town, to be laid out by them at such time and place as they may agree." This was doubtless the origin of the different parishes which were afterwards established.
On Oct. 15, 1787, Rochester "voted to lay out a road from the Branch bridge to Palmer's mill." This was the first public road laid out in Milton, and was from some bridge in the present town of Rochester, and not from what is now known as the Branch bridge in Milton, for, at a meeting held the 3Ist day of the following March, they "voted to lay out a road from Palmer's mill to Wakefield line, if the owners will give the land." This road extended over Plumer's ridge, the Branch river, and what has since been known as the Branch hill, thus establishing a thoroughfare through the entire town from Rochester to Wakefield.
March 7, 1792, "Voted to lay out a road from Moses Chamberlin's to Haines' Mills." This is the old road leading from the Branch to Union village.
March 5. 1793, "Voted to lay out a road from Shapleigh Upper Mill to Wakefield line, in accordance with the petition of Thomas Cloutman."
James Hartford is said to have been the first trader or merchant in Milton. He was located at Three Ponds, but in what year is not known. He has been succeeded by something more than one hundred different merchants in that village. Elijah Horn was doubtless the first blacksmith, but was soon followed by Isaac Worster at the Ponds, and later by Solomon Land and Joseph Rines at Milton Mills.
Stephen Drew settled at Milton Mills in 1818 or 1819, and after a year or two moved to the Three Ponds. He is supposed to have been the first resident physician in town. Before his time doctors were called from other towns when needed.

Very soon after the organization of the town it was voted to use the capital letter M as the seal of Milton. The first town meeting was called by William Plumer, Esq., and held at the dwelling house of Lieut. Elijah Horn, on Aug. 30, 1802; Beard Plumer was chosen moderator; Gilman Jewett, town clerk; William Plumer, John Fish and John Remick, Jr., selectmen. Their first official act is on record as follows :
State of New Hampshire, Strafford, ss: We, the Selectmen of Milton, do by these presents license to Elijah Horn to keep a public tavern at his house in Milton from this date under such Rules and Regulations as the law directs. Given under our hand at Milton, this 30th day of August, 1802.
William Plummer, John Fish, John Remick, Jr., Selectmen.
At the first annual meeting held March 14, 1803, Beard Plumer was chosen moderator ; Gilman Jewett, clerk; William Plumer, John Fish, Ezekiel Hayes, selectmen; Beard Plumer, representative. One hundred and thirty- four votes were cast for governor, of which John Taylor Gilman had 103; John Langdon 31. The following were appointed to locate the proposed meeting-house, for church and town uses: Capt. Daniel Hayes, John Fish, Timothy Roberts, John Remick, Jr., William Plumer, and Beard Plumer ; these gentlemen being unable to agree called in council Joshua Allen, Daniel Wingate and Luther Dearborn, and the combined number of wise men decided in favor of the site on which the present townhouse stands. The town voted to accept the choice made by the committee.
Then the town voted to build a meeting-house on that site, 52x42 feet, with a porch at each end eleven feet square and a portico in front. John Fish, Gilman Jewett and Beard Plumer were appointed a building commitee. Its construction was to be completed on or before Oct. 3, 1804, and it was so completed. They sold the pews at auction for $19,083. They used two gallons of rum at the raising of the frame and putting on the ridge pole. The first town meeting was held in it Aug. 27, 1804. During the first four score years following its incorporation the following were moderators at town meetings : Beard Plumer, 6 years; John Fish, 1; John Remick, Jr., 8; Joseph Plumer, Jr., 4; Levi Jones, 4; John Nutter, I; James Roberts, 8; Hanson Hayes, 10; Charles Swasy, 3; Thomas Chapman, 2; James Berry, 2; Eli Wentworth, I : John D. Lyman, I; Asa Fox, I; Charles A. Varny, 3; Charles C. Hayes, 14: Charles Jones, 6; E. W. Plumer, 2; Abram Sanborn, 2; Luther Hayes, I.

CHAPTER LXVII HISTORY OF MILTON (II)
CONCERNING MINISTERS AND CHURCHES
It does not appear that they had any regular minister before the Congre- gational Church in 1815. But immediately after the completion of the meeting-house in 1804 an effort was made to settle a minister, as a regular town minister. At a meeting held Aug. 27, 1804, it was: "Voted to choose a committee to treat with Rev. Mr. Nason, and see on what terms he will agree to settle in town." At a meeting on the 5th of November the com- mittee rendered the following report: "Milton, Nov. 5, 1804. Gentlemen : We have, according to your desire, talked with Mr. Nason, and we find that if the town are agreed to give him the use of a decent parsonage during his ministry and $300 yearly, that he would settle with us on these conditions.
Committee. RICHARD WALKER BENJAMIN SCATES"
The town voted to accept this report. But Mr. Nason did not settle there ; he and others conducted services in the meeting-house from time to time, but not regularly as settled ministers. The town accounts show that prior to 1805 the following persons had been paid to preach : Reuben Nason, $82; Mr. Brown, $4; Mr. Bunt, $24; Mr. Pillsbury, $55; Captain Plumer for boarding the ministers, $33; in 1805 the town paid Christopher Page for preaching, $84; Reuben Nason, $34.15; in 1806, paid John Darrance for preaching, $54; in 1807 paid him for preaching, $21; in 1808 paid Mr. Preston for preaching, $5; in 1808 Mr. Papkin for preaching, $30; in 1810 Asa Piper for preaching, $30; in 1811 Asa Piper, $2.50; Mr. Godiny for preaching, $5 ; in 1812 Asa Piper, $23; Mr. Thurston, $3 ; in 1813 Asa Piper, $4.50; and Israel Briggs for preaching, $33.
March 14, 1803, in town meeting, voted to raise 50 cents on a poll, and other ratable property in proportion, for support of the ministry. The same tax was voted to be raised March 12, 1805, and also "voted to tax all denominations alike, with the privilege of directing what teacher may have their money."
513
514
HISTORY OF STRAFFORD COUNTY
March 9, 1813, "Voted not to raise any money for the support of the ministry." And at a meeting held May 3, following, a committee was chosen to ascertain what property there is in Milton which was given by the pro- prietors of Rochester to procure preaching of the gospel in said town. It does not appear on record that this committee made any report, but a com- mittee chosen March 10, 1818, to ascertain the amount of all the parish and school property then belonging to the town did report March 9, 1819, "That they can not ascertain the exact amount, but in their opinion $1,000 should be appropriated for the support of the gospel."
April 8, 1820, "Voted to lay out $60 and the interest of the $1,000 called parsonage property for the support of the gospel, and that the same be divided between each society in the town petitioning for the same."
March 8, 1831, "Chose a committee of three to assist the selectmen in making a fair and impartial division of all the notes belonging to the town; and voted that notes amounting to $1,000, as be by them separated from all other town property, and kept separated as a special fund belonging to the town, as parish property, and that the same shall be managed as a fund entirely separate from all other notes."
It does not appear that this committee ever took any action in the matter; at any rate the record does not show that any separation of the notes alluded to was had. At this time the town held notes against individuals amounting to $1.744.78, a large proportion of which were entirely worthless.
These notes were carried forward from year to year until 1844, when the selectmen, in accordance with a vote of the town, selected those considered worthless, amounting to $635.98, and placed them in the town chest, where they doubtless now remain.
What proportion of those worthless notes represented parish property has not yet been determined.
No further action was taken in the matter until March 13, 1860, when it was "voted to divide the ministerial money equally between the five established societies."
March 10, 1863, "Voted to divide the ministerial money equally among the several religious societies in town who shall hold meetings regularly four months in the year previous to the first day of January."
These two latest votes would seem to indicate that it was the intention of the town to divide whatever money there might be that the societies could have any claim upon, and thus end the whole matter, but it does not appear that this was carried into effect, or that any effort was made to determine what, if any, amount they were equitably entitled to.
March 9, 1880, "Voted that the interest of the ministerial fund be divided
515
AND REPRESENTATIVE CITIZENS
equally among the several societies in town that support preaching four months in a year prior to January first."
The First Congregational Church in the town was organized on Sept. 8. 1815, and consisted of nine members, viz. : Barnabas Palmer, Hatevel Nutter, Benjamin Scates, Abigail Scates, Deborah Wentworth, Mary Chamberlain, Achsah Palmer, Mrs. - Nutter, and Elizabeth Roberts.
Benjamin Scates was the first clerk and deacon, and Rev. Curtis Coe the first pastor. The church remained under his care, and that of the Rev. Dyer Burge until 1819, when Rev. James Walker was called, and continued in charge until his death in September, 1826. From this time until December, 1832, the church had no settled minister, but was supplied by Rev. Clement Parker, E. S. Anderson, and others, whose names do not appear upon the church records. Rev. Benjamin G. Willey was then settled, and remained in charge until 1846. He was succeeded by Revs. Edward F. Abbott, August, 1846, to May, 1848; James Doldt, May. 1848, to January, 1870; Frank Haley, February, 1870, to April. 1874; John N. Lowell, August, 1874, to August, 1875; Samuel W. Clarke, April, 1876, to April, 1877; John N. Jewett, 1877 to 1880; George Sterling, October, 1881, to 1890. This church originally so small, and in a location sparsely settled, has made an almost unprecedented addition to its membership of 236, making a total of 247 ; of which number ninety-two are supposed to be now living; sixty-nine now active members. Sally Jones and Deacon E. W. Plumer are the elder active members, having united with the church in 1836, and held a continued membership up to this time. Ebenezer Osgood became a member in 1832, but asked and obtained a dismissal a few years ago for the purpose of uniting with the Second or Union Church.
This church worshiped in the old meeting-house until 1835, when the house was built at Three Ponds, which has since been transformed into a "Classical Institute." After this time for several years the meetings were held alternately at the Three Ponds and Milton Mills. The present meeting- house of this church was built in 1860, and is a spacious and elegant edifice.
The "First Christian Church" was organized March 3, 1827, with ten members, as follows, viz .: Hapley Meserve. Joseph Goodwin, Anna Good- win, Joanna Meserve, Eliza Rines, Abigail Burnham, Ruth Burnham, Mary Burnham, Dorcas Ricker, Mary Howe.
The first deacons were Hapley Meserve and Samuel Ricker, and the first clerk was Hapley Meserve. The pastors have been Simeon Swett, Jolin Davis. John T. G. Colby, Samuel S. White, Jotham S. Johnson, and A. G. Comings.
The deacons have been H. Meserve, Samuel Ricker, Joseph Goodwin. Jonathan Howe, Joseph H. Nutt. James H. Twombly. and John C. Varney.
516
HISTORY OF STRAFFORD COUNTY
and the clerks, Hapley Meserve, Daniel B. Goodwin and Martin V. B. Cook. Two hundred and one members have been added to this church, and sixty- eight have died. Their house of worship, known as Union Chapel, was dedicated Sept. 22. 1841.
Baptist Church .- Prior to 1834 a church existed, known as the Acton and Milton Baptist Church. This church had a large membership in Milton. On the 28th day of October, in said year, fifty-two members were dismissed from said church, and the 30th day of the same October they organized them- selves into a new church, called the Baptist Church of Milton. The member- ship was as follows: Charles Swasey, Sarah Swasey, John Shackford, Eliza- beth Hart, Ann E. Hart, Hannah Nutter, Ruth Nutter, Samuel S. Hart, Daniel Jones, Nancy Witham, Ira Witham, Nathan Jones, Mehitable Witham, Eunice Swasey, Harriet Fox, Widow Betsey Berry, Susan S. Nutter, Mary Ann Nutter, John Witham, Jr., William S. Nutter, Aaron H. Hadsdan, Nathaniel O. Hart, John Witham, Francis Berry, Josiah Witham, Susan Jones, Martha Witham, Fatima Wallingford, Lydia Jewett, Susan Archabald, Eliza G. Berry, James J. Jewett, Lydia Witham, Nathan Dore, Climena Witham, Alice Hussey, Mary Wentworth, Lydia Fall, Sarah Wentworth. Sally Merrow, Eliza Merrow, Mary Jones, Nancy Jewett, Asa Jewett, Betsey Berry, Mary Witham, Abigail Witham, Deborah Dore, Sarah Berry, Francis Wallingford, Sarah Dore, Elizabeth Nutter. William S. Nutter was chosen clerk, and Charles Swasey and John Witham, Jr., were chosen and ordained as deacons. Of these fifty-two members nine only are now living.
This church worshiped in the Union meeting-house at Milton Mills, which was built in 1834. The church for several years was in a very prosperous condition, and received an addition of twenty-three members.
Jan. 25, 1842, David Farnham was ordained a deacon, and in May, 1855, Samuel S. Hart was also made a deacon.
The pastors were Elders Emerson, Glover. Smith, Small, Chase, McGregory, Cox, Robbins, Jay, Daymond, Broadbent, Jones, and Hubbard. and perhaps some others. William S. Nutter held the clerkship from 1834 to 1837, Asa Jewett from 1837 to 1850, David Farnham from 1850 to 1852, Samuel S. Hart 1852 to June 6, 1867, at which date the record closes.
A Free-WVill Baptist Church was organized at the house of Theodore Lyman, on the 11th day of May, 1843, with seventeen members, viz .: Hazen Duntley, Daniel M. Quimby, Luther Hayes, William Fernald, James O. Reyn- olds, Drusilla Jewett, Betsey Lyman, Mary H. Downs, Mrs. D. W. Wedg- wood, William B. Lyman, Theodore Lyman, E. S. Edgerly, Dearborn Wedg- wood, Phoebe Duntley, Sophia Quimby, Sally F. Downs, Mrs. A. Hubbard.
