Neither Carr Huse nor any of his descendants ever resided within the limits of Bristol but he was so long and so intimately identified with the old town of New Chester, of which the terri- tory of Bristol was a part, that this history would be incomplete without a sketch of this worthy man.


At the first town meeting in New Chester, in 1773, Carr Huse was elected selectman, and he filled this office 18 years ; at the second annual town meeting he was elected clerk and served 33 years. In his old age, realizing the importance of a record of the first meeting, he recorded a statement of what was then done, the clerk of that meeting, Joshua Tolford, having failed to make a record. During the Revolutionary war, he was a member of the town committee of safety, and he served as ser- geant of a company that marched from Plymouth in September, 1777, to the relief of the northern army under Gen. Gates. He was for many years a justice of the peace ; also served as cor- oner. He was largely influential in the organization of the First Congregational church of Hill, in 1815, and was elected one of its first deacons. He was a broad-minded, progressive man and his influence is still felt, though he long since ceased to have a voice in the affairs of his town.


Carr Huse m. (1) Sarah Wells, presumed to be the daughter of Lieut. Thomas Wells, four of whose sons were among the earliest settlers in New Chester. She d. July 8, 1773, ae. 33- 3-24. He m. (2) in 1775, Joanna Buswell, who d. June 12, 1823, ae. 77. He d. Apr. 10, 1833, ae. 92-9 -. He had five children by his first wife and four by his second. The home- stead still remains in the family. Carr Huse was succeeded by

She is the mother of five children, one of whom, George M., is a resident on the homestead, as is also her grandson, Carr Huse, a son of George M. Huse, and a great-great-grandson of the original settler on this estate.

THE INGALLS FAMILY


I. Those bearing the name of Ingalls in Bristol are evident- ly the descendants of Capt. Samuel Ingalls, b. Andover, Mass., May 7, 1683. He settled in Haverhill, Mass., but removed, in 1720, to Chester, where, in 1721, he was granted a mill privi- lege on agreement to erect a saw-mill within one year. He was a selectman in Chester three years, was one of a committee to erect a church, and, in 1732, erected the first frame house in that town. He d. Oct. 6, 1747, ae. 64-4-29. He had nine children, of whom one was


2. Samuel, b. Sept. 15, 1712. He is supposed to be iden- tical with Samuel, the father of Jonathan and Ebenezer, men- tioned below. He was a resident of Sandown and evidently


250


HISTORY OF BRISTOL


spent his last days in New Chester. In March, 1782, New Chester voted to exempt him from a poll-tax. Of his children, Ebenezer (No. 3) and Jonathan (No. 4 following) settled in New Chester.


3. Ebenezer was a settler on the Oren Nelson farm west of Danforth brook, while Jonathan settled on the east side of the brook. Both were here as early as 1771, and each served one term in the Revolutionary army from New Chester. Eben- ezer served as selectman in 1776, and soon after removed to New Hampton (See p. 252), and Jonathan succeeded to his farm.


4. Jonathan m. Martha Locke, a sister of Thomas Locke (See), probably his second m. The town records say Jonathan Ingalls m. Edna Hastings, Nov. 25, 1813, probably his third m. He removed to Canada with a portion of his family.
