SCAMMON, HUMPHREY. The first appearance of this man anywhere was at Portsmouth, October, 1667. Shortly before Philip's war he bought from Nathaniel Fryer a farm in Wells, but was driven off by the Indians and returned to Kittery. Later he bought largely on the east side of the Saco River, where he had a garrison at the breaking out of the second Indian war. From 1690 to about 1714 he lived most of the time in Kittery ; he reached a great age, and finally died at Saco.

SHAPLEIGH, ALEXANDER, came from Kings- weare, Devonshire, England, and settled in Kittery about 1633, in the part now Eliot; later he became a land owner in the lower part of Old Kittery, and in 1642 built the first house in what is now Kittery, at Warehouse Point; the place where the cellar was can be pointed out now to visitors. He was a merchant in England, and in Kittery was agent for Sir Ferdinando Gorges. It is said he gave the name Kittery Point to the locality that now bears that name; perhaps he named the whole town from a place near Kingsweare in Devonshire, England. Deposition by his servant, Thomas Jones, states that Shapleigh was living at Sturgeon Creek in 1639; it is supposed that he died there before 1650; his estate was being settled in that year at a court held at Agamenticus. He was one of the leading men in the beginning of the settlement of Kittery. His son, Major Nicholas, kept in the lead after his father died.
Children: (1) Alexander, b. ab. 1606; d. in Eng- land in 1642 .- (2) Katharine, b. ab. 1608; m. (1) James Treworgye; (2) Edward Hilton, ab. 1651. She then came to Exeter to live and that was her home till her death, 29 May, 1676. Her will is in the first volume of the Probate Records .- (3) Major Nicholas, b. ab. 1610; m. Alice, dau. of widow Ann Meseant ; d. 1682.
The son, Alexander, who died in England in 1642 had a son John Shapleigh, who was born about 1640 and came to Kittery when a young man, and became one of the influential men of the old town. He was selectman, representative, ensign of the militia com- pany of the Upper Parish, and did good service in fighting the Indians, but finally he was killed by them 29 April, 1706.

SHERBURNE, JOHN GENTLEMAN, was son of Joseph Sherburne of Odiham, in Hampshire, England, who died in 1621, and grandson of Henry Sherburne of Beam Hall of Oxford, England, who died in 1598, and is, according to the pedigree compiled in 1710, by Hon. Henry Sherburne, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of New Hampshire (1732-1742), a lineal descendant, in a younger branch of Sir Richard Sherburne of Stonyhurst Hall, in Lancashire, England, who died in 1513. John was baptized as son of Joseph Sherburne, Aug. 13, 1615, which the Parish Register of Odiham still shows. He joined his brother, Henry Sherburne (who settled in Portsmouth, N. H., 1632), about 1640.
He was a man of attainments, held many offices of the town and was a prominent and useful citizen for fifty years. He was a large landholder and left his
169
children considerable estates. He married about 1645, Elizabeth, daughter of Robert Tuck, "Chirur- geon", of Hampton, N. H. He died in 1693, his wife surviving him.
Children: (1) Mary, b. ab. 1647; m. -. (2) John, b. 1650; he is known as Captain John Sherburne, and lived at the Plains, in Portsmouth, on the home- stead left to him by his father. This land was deeded to him by his brother, Henry Sherburne, already men- tioned as having come to Portsmouth in 1632. The transfer was made in 1658 and the land has, in part, remained in possession of his descendants to the pres- ent time (1918). In 1661 he married Mary, daughter of Thomas and Hannah (Johnson) Jackson, and a lineal descendant of John Jackson of Portsmouth. He died in 1730, leaving 10 children-Priscilla, Elizabeth, Hannah, John, Jr., James, Thomas, Ruth, Samuel, Ephraim, and Mary .- (3) Henry, b. 1652; m.

SLADE, ARTHUR, 1682-1746. He was native of Cornwall, England, and sailed from Deptford, for New England about 1700. At Deptford he was mem- ber of the Parish of St. Nichols. He settled at Ports- mouth, N. H., soon after he arrived in New England ; he engaged in mercantile business and became one of the prominent and successful business men. He owned ships in which he imported his own goods, and mer- chandise for others. His name is on the Atkinson Sil- ver waiter.
Descendant: Dennison Roger Slade.
SPINNEY, THOMAS, 1620-1701. He came from England to Kittery about 1650. In 1651 he married Margery Randall. He signed the submission to Massa- chusetts in November, 1652. In 1659 the town of Kit- tery gave him a grant of 200 acres of land at the end
170
of what is now called Eliot Neck; there he built his house and there he lived the rest of his life. In a legal document of date of 1669, he is called "Thomas Spin- ney, weaver." He was son of Samuel and Elizabeth (Knight) Spinney. He died 31 August, 1701.

SMITH, JOSEPH, 1640-1727. He witnessed a deed in 1657. He bought of Matthew Williams, in 1660, 40 acres of land on the north side of Oyster River, near its mouth. The same year he had grant of a small piece of land on the north side of Oyster . River between the lot of Matthew Williams and that of William Williams, Jr. Later he had a grant of ten acres adjoining his home lot on the northwest. In March, 1693-4 he had a grant of 60 acres on the north side of Lamprey River. He built his house on the lot near the mouth of the river, and about 1675 fortified it with a stockade, which made it safe against the attack of Indians. They failed to capture it in 1694, when so many others were destroyed on both sides of the river. His wife was Elizabeth Bickford, daughter of John and Temperance Bickford. He was juryman in 1669 and at other times. He was constable (for Oys- ter River) in 1670 and later. He was selectman in 1699. He died in his garrison house 15 Dec., 1727. His farm has remained in possession of the Smith family, his descendants, to the present time (1918).
In his will he gave £12 for repairing the Friends'
171
meeting house at Dover (Neck), which suggests that he was a Quaker, and the suspicion is confirmed by the language of the following paper, found among the Pro- bate Records, Vol. VI, p. 58:
"Mary Tasker Dr. to Joseph Smith 1697; total 2-4-9.
Friend Henry knock i understand that thou art conserned in the estate of ye deceased tasket estate. i desire thou would take care to pay ye Above men- tioned sum to me, or to Samuel Daniels, his reseit for it shall be a discharg, this is ye request.

Descendant: Mrs. Mary Elizabeth (Neal) Hana- ford.
STACKPOLE, JAMES, 1652-1736. Tradition says that he was kidnapped on the coast of Ireland, when he was fourteen years old, as were hundreds of others about that time, and brought to America as servants or apprentices. He first appears in 1680, when he was taxed in Dover. The same year he settled in what is now Rollinsford, on what was recently known as the Samuel Hale farm, on the road to "Sligo" and opposite the mouth of Great Works River. The lot had been granted to Joseph Austin in 1656, but was never improved by him. James Stackpole bought it of Austin's son in 1710. In the year 1717 there was a lawsuit to determine the ownership of adjoining land, and then Henry Hobbs, aged 47, Hatevil Roberts, aged 56, and Thomas Young, aged 54, deposed that they had known James Stackpole "to be possessed of the land that he now lives on thirty-seven years without moles- tation." Here he and some of his descendants lived for a century and a half. His house, probably built in 1680, is mentioned in 1709, when the Sligo Road was laid out. In 1840 it was removed to St. Albans Cove and is still tenanted, perhaps the oldest house in ancient Dover, except that of Capt. Valentine Hill at Durham Falls, built in 1649. In the little cemetery on the old farm of James Stackpole his descendants have recently erected a stone to his memory, suitably inscribed.
The origin of the surname is as follows :- On the southern coast of Wales, about four miles from Pem- broke, at the mouth of an inlet, or small harbor, rises a mass of limestone, called the Stack Rock ever since the Danes conquered that region, about the year 900 A.
173
D. A Norman knight settled here about the year 1100. Tradition calls him Richard, but the first historical per- sonage known was Elidyr de Stakepol, said to have been a crusader with Richard the Lion-Hearted. His effigy, carved in limestone, may be seen in the church at Stackpole, Wales. Richard de Stakepol, doubtless son of Elidyr, is known to have gone with Strongbow to the conquest of Ireland in 1168-9 and to have settled in the vicinity of Cork. Thence descendants went to Limerick, where between the years 1450 and 1650 more than a score of mayors, aldermen and recorders are found in the records of that city. Bartholomew Stacpole (there is no k in the Irish language) sur- rendered Limerick to the army of Cromwell com- manded by General Henry Ireton, in 1651, he being then recorder, or city clerk.
In the Parliamentary Roll of Arms, of date about 1300 A. D., is found in old Norman French the follow- ing :- Sire Richard de Stakepol de argent a un lion rampant de goules od le Coler de or, i. e., a red rampant lion, having a gold collar, on a silver shield. Stackpole Court has been so called eight centuries and is the pres- ent seat of the Earl of Cawdor. The lineage of the ancient Stakepols of Pembrokeshire for two or three centuries is on record at the College of Heraldry, Lon- don. It contains some errors but is in the main re- liable.
Children of James and Margaret (Warren) Stack- pole were as follows: (1) Catherine, m. about 1700 Alexander Junkins of York, son of Robert Junkins, who married Sarah, daughter of John Smith of Cape Nedick .- (2) James, d. unm. about 1706 .- (3) Lieut.

STEVENSON, THOMAS, date of birth not known, but he was owner of land on the south side of Oyster River as early as 5 July, 1643, which is a matter of record. He was rated at Oyster River in 1648. He received a grant of three acres on Oyster Point in 1649. His wife's name was Margaret. He died 17 Dec., 1663. She died 26 Nov., 1663. An old court record states that Joseph, son of Thomas, "should allow to three daughters of sd Thomas Stevenson six pounds a piece, and to sd Joseph's two brothers six pounds a piece, which two brothers' portion the court allows unto sd Joseph for bringing them up, and the sd Joseph to enjoy all the rest of the estate, to himself, he allowing William Follet six pounds for his disbursements for Physick for Joseph's sister, Chapman."

TASKER, WILLIAM, 1654-1697. He came to Dover before 1675, as in that year he was taxed here. He married Mary Adams, daughter of Charles Adams, who was born about 1623, and bought land of John Ault, at Oyster River, 10 April, 1645. Adams was taxed in 1648, and took the oath of fidelity 21 June, 1669. He was constable in 1662. He and fourteen others of his household were slain by the Indians in the massacre of July, 1694, and his house was burned. The mound of earth marking their graves is very near the Mathes burial place at Durham Point. That mound has never been disturbed. Mr. Adams gave land to his daughter, Mary, at the foot of Moharimet's Hill, on which William Tasker built a garrison house, near where Major John DeMerritt now (1918) lives. That was the Tasker farm for three generations. In the time of the massacre, in 1694, three Indians were sent to attack the house of William Tasker at the foot of Moharimet's Hill early in the morning. An Indian looked into a small window and inquired if it was not time for them to get up. Mr. Tasker replied with a shot from his gun which mortally wounded the Indian, who with bitter screeches was carried off by the other two. The family immediately fled through the woods to the Woodman garrison, where they found better protection. A large crowd had gathered there before them. William's son, Captain John Tasker, served in the Crown Point expedition and in other of the French and Indian wars, and was a distinguished citizen other- wise. The ancient Tasker burial ground is on a hill in the rear of Major DeMerritt's house; some of the gravestones bear inscriptions.
Children: (1) Samuel, slain by the Indians, June, 1704 .- (2) Mary, m. between 1700 and 1704, Samuel Perkins .- (3) Captain John, m. 3 April, 1718, Judith Davis.

176
William, daughters Elizabeth Davis, and · Rebecca Tasker, widow of his late son John; and grandchildren, Samuel, Betty and Mary, children of John and Rebecca, all baptized 6 May, 1753. His widow was living in 1772. She was daughter of Joseph and Mary (Stevens) Davis.

TETHERLY, GABRIEL, was born, probably, in Bideford, Co. Devon, England, as Oct. 21, 1692, he was appointed administrator of his brother William Tetherly's estate, late of Bideford, England, mariner. He was admitted an inhabitant of Boston in 1656, but soon came to Kittery and bought land near the Boiling Rock in 1660. He married Susannah King, widow probably of William King. Her son, Richard King, grew up in the family. He died 10 Dec., 1695, and his widow and Richard King (stepson) administered his estate.

TIBBETTS, HENRY, 1596-1676. He was one of Captain Thomas Wiggin's party that came over in 1633, and commenced the village on Dover Neck. His residence was on High street, and was a garrison in
177
Indian war times. His name appears on the tax lists for many years. He owned various lots of land; one of these on High street he sold to John Tuttle, Sr., on which Mr. Tuttle lived during his residence on Dover Neck. He held various minor offices ; was constable in 1663. He was engaged in farming, lumbering and real estate transfers. In 1665 he signed a petition to the General Court regarding matters of importance to Dover interests ; certain legislation was unsatisfactory. The following from the old court records is of interest :
"At a Court holden at Dover, 10th day, 7 mo. where as upon a complaint of John Awite & Remem- brance, his wife, against Captain Thomas Wiggin for wagis due to his wife before she came to pascatquacke, New Englande, being on the 14th December, 1632; and for as much as it was proved by the oath of henry Tybbetts that her time of service did begin the first of March, before she came over to New Englande, yt was therefore ordered by ye sd Court that the sd Re- membrance shall have such wagis due unto her from sd first of March until ye sd 14th of December."

THOMPSON, JOHN, Sr., 1659-1734. He was son of William Thompson of old Kittery (Eliot), and was born there at the Thompson homestead near Cold Harbor on Sturgeon Creek. His father had a grant of land in Dover, but never came here to live. He died in 1676, and his son, John, inherited this grant and came to Oyster River to live when he was about twen- ty-one, and in 1680 married Sarah Woodman, daughter of Captain John and Mary (Field) Woodman. His house was a short distance west of the present College buildings. He gave bond in 1684 for the proper ad- ministration of his father's estate and to provide for James, his lame brother ; this brother turned out to be a very successful tailor. March 30, 1708, "John Thompson and James Thompson, sons of William Thompson, late of Kittery," conveyed the homestead at "Cold Harbor," in what is now Eliot, on Fore River, opposite Dover Neck, to Francis Allen. The deed was witnessed by Jonathan Woodman, Robert Huckins and David Kincaid. John Thompson's will, dated 12 April. 1733, was probated 24 July, 1734.
