The Boutelle family were of French origin. It is supposed that their French ancestors came from Normandy to England with William the Cor queror.

During the early part of his r. worked at hi: in H., in connection with his labors on his farm, he rade as a shoemaker. He was a somewhat prominent member of tl. Congregational church, being one of its deacons for many years. He was a religious man, but not bigoted for that time; be mac . no great pretensions, but tried to live a Christian life. On one cecasion when questioned in regard to the matter, his reply was, " nave no religion to boast of." Like the majority of L's generatie he was strict in the observance of the Sabbath, and seldom failed m his attendance on public worship. In the winter no hres wer. lowed in the " meeting-house," and by noon the wor- shippers wou. be nearly frozen.

At an early age he became a teacher in the common winter schools. He took a course of study at the "Teachers' Seminary " at Andover, Mass., and subsequently was principal of grammar schools in Warren, R. I., and New Bedford and Fall River, Mass. In 1844, he took a course of lessons of Dea. N. D. Gould, of Boston, in ornamental penman- ship and ornamental register making. This led him to the study of genealogy, especially that of the old families of New England. He was admitted as a resident member of the New England His- toric-Genealogical Society, March 25, 1855. He compiled the "Burke and Alvord Memorial" in 1864, and "The Genealogy of the Whipple Family" in 1857. A contribution to the Woburn Journal, Jan. 21, 1881, says of him : "Men who were best acquainted with Mr. Boutelle knew the depth of his genial character. He was pleasant and full of reminiscences of past generations. It was delightful to pass an hour with him as he imparted so much valu- able information. . . He was a man rich in those elements of character that make the ground-work of our social public."

Of her, her son writes: "She was beautiful in per- son, having the sweetest face I ever looked upon, and in character and disposition she was as lovely as her features; she was laid to rest beside the love of her youth and the husband of her woman- hood, beneath the whispering pines of Brunswick, where for so many years they made their home."

He subsequently took several voyages, and in 1843 became mate of the Archelaus. In 1848 he took charge of the ship St. John, of Brunswick, Me., in which he went to Vera Cruz to transport troops and government stores from Mexico. His next ship was the Archelaus, which foundered on a return passage from England in the Bristol channel; all hands were saved, and he returned as passenger to New York. He then took a new ship called The State of Maine, and made a voyage around Cape Horn to California in 1850, arriving in San Francisco in August. Crossing the Pacific ocean to the Phillippine islands, and returning to London by way of Calcutta and the Cape of Good Hope, thence to New York, he sailed around the world.

Lincoln had just arrived. A meeting of the Americans in port was held, the Consul General presiding, and a resolution passed to wear their colors half-mast and crape on the arm for eight days. He arrived in London, Nov. 1865, with his ship in a crippled condition ; had it repaired, and returned to the United States in the spring of 1866. He sailed again for England, there loaded for Panama, and sailed in September. On the morning of Oct. 12, being one hundred and eighty miles from the Island of Madeira, the ship was discovered to be on fire, and in spite of all efforts to quench it, at noon the fore- mast burned off and fell over the side, the ship was abandoned, and the crew took to the boats. They were rescued by the English brig Bell, landed at Funchall, and returned to Liverpool by the African steamer, reaching the United States in Dec. 1866.

They res. in Land- grove, Vt., Mount Tabor, Vt., and Westminster, Vt., for about sixteen years, returning to H. in 1826. He d. April 10, 1869; she d. June 4, 1872. He was of a convivial disposition, and highly en- joyed a good-natured, harmless joke. In his boyhood, during the long winter evenings, he was the life of the household ; was often called to order for his boyish pranks, which would keep the whole house in an uproar. While living in Vermont, he was for a time lieuten- ant of a company of cavalry in Weston, and when members of the company visited him at his house they had "hilarious times." He was chosen leader of the church choir in H. when 19 years of age. During his res. of four years at Westminster, Vt., he was leader of the church choir there. One member of the choir there, who ever remained an especial friend, was the late Judge Henry Bellows, of Concord. He was a great lover of music, but a discord annoyed him exceedingly. His life, however, had its sober side. At an early day he took an active part in the anti-slavery movement, and he was so earnest and pronounced in his advocacy of what was then an unpopular cause, that it brought him into controversy with many of his townsmen, and he received considerable censure. He and his wife were both members of the Congregational church. With several others of the members of the church they attended a lecture, given by Henry C. Wright, on a Communion Sunday. For this act the following charges were preferred against him in writing: "1st, Forsaking the Communion; 2d, Going to hear a disorganizer on the Sabbath." He acknowledged the act, but denied its being wrong.

For this act, without repentance for the same, he was excommuni- cated with some fifteen others for a similar offense. The crowning joy of his later years was to witness the entire extinction of slavery and a unanimity of feeling upon a subject that for years was the cause of a bitter controversy. Children :-

F. Wallace, in the autumn of 1829. From the age of 18 to 21, he taught school in the winter and labored on the farm in the other seasons. He then took a course of study at the "Teachers' Seminary" at Andover, Mass. He taught several years as principal in the grammar schools of Warren, R. I., and New Bedford, Mass., after which he studied dentistry at Provi- dence, R. I. He practised his profession at Newport, R. I., Man- chester and Peterboro', and Worcester, Mass. In 1869, with the ope of improving his impaired health, he rem. to Lake City, Minn., where he now res. We are greatly indebted to him for the valuable assistance he has rendered in furnishing the record of the Boutelle family.
