FOGG.
SAMUEL FOGG came to Hampton within a few years after its settle- ment and received grants of several tracts of land. He bought the homestead of Capt. Christopher Hussey (the Anthony Emery place), Captain Hussey having removed to his farin on the Falls side of the town. In the second review of old grants, made in 1658 (pp. 58, 59), and recorded on the town book, were found grants to "Samuel Fogge of Hampton," in part as follows :
"1. Impris : Eight Acres & Halfe of upland bought of Mr. Hussey, being the one half of His grant in the East field lying between the medow of the sd Samuel Fogg towards the East and the land of Wil-

liam Moulton sometimes Mr. Husses towards the West, abutting upon the High Waye towards the East, & the land of Will. Sanborn towards the West, bee it more or less as it is layd outt.
3. Itt. A quarter of an acre of land in the Meeting house green the wh was granted to John Cross sometimes of Hampton, & by the sd John Crosse sould unto Roger Shaw and by the sd Roger Shaw given to Sam" Fogge and so appointed by the town to ly adjoining to that peece of land whereupon his House standeth wch was formerly Mr. Husseys : being bounded with the sayd peece of land towards the South & otherwise soe bounded with the Meetinghouse Green, more or less as it is layd outt."
In the drawing for lots at the New Plantation, six years after the first survey in 1663 (pp. 64, 65), Samuel Fogg drew lot number sixty-one hundred acres. He must, therefore, have owned two shares or more of the commons at that time. The farm now owned by Mr. John H. Fogg was, without much doubt, included in his possessions, though no homes were then built so far away from the chief settle- ment. This farm has never been conveyed by deed, but has passed down from generation to generation, by virtue of the original grant.
