His great grandsons Thomas and Caleb came to New Durham and the Gore around 1780; Caleb served the town in many capaci- ties, lived on the Jewett road (now called the Brackett road) and died in Alton in 1815. One of his sons, Jeremiah, was the father of Elder David L. Edgerly who lived in town for many years.
Thomas's sons Josiah and Andrew married daughters of Col. Thomas Tash: Josiah married Mary (Polly) Tash and had twelve children; Andrew married Elizabeth (Betsey) Tash and had ten children.
Josiah lived in a house on the Bay road now owned by Mrs. Charles F. Bennett. He was a "joiner", which term meant cabinet- maker rather than carpenter; he served as Selectman and town clerk, had a license to keep a tavern from 1798-1804; and in his house was started the first Library in town. He moved to Farming- ton in 1808 and many of his children and grandchildren grew up to be esteemed and worthy citizens.
HAM
Nathaniel Ham was born in Durham in 1791, did garrison duty at Portsmouth during the War of 1812 and moved to New Durham shortly afterward. He married Clarissa Chamberlin, daughter of Penuel Chamberlin and Molly (Rendel) Chamberlin and they had 14 children.
Their daughter Tamson married Socrates H. Boodey. Their son Penuel Chamberlin Ham was born in New Durham in 1823, served as Captain in the Civil War; after his discharge in 1864 he kept a store in town. He married Sarah A. Durgin of New Durham in 1847.
HAYES
John Hayes, the immigrant ancestor of nearly all in New Hampshire bearing that name, came from Scotland and settled in Dover in 1680. His first wife and mother of his seven sons and three daughters was Mary Horne. The Hayes families in New Durham from the earliest days to the present are descended from this John Hayes, through various lines.
The first one recorded in town was Lt. Thomas "Hase" in 1784, followed by Hezekiah Hayes, whose marriage to Abigail Bennett of Farmington was recorded in 1801. In 1806 Reuben Hayes and Elihu Hayes are on the tax lists.
[ 84 ]
Reuben Hayes, son of Elihu and Elizabeth (Davis) Hayes, was born in Madbury in 1776, married Patience, youngest daughter of Col. Tash in 1803, and lived at New Durham corner in the house now occupied by Perley and Elze Young.
From the records, it appears that Reuben was a busy man. He ran a store, tavern and saw mill, was town clerk two years, select- man seven years, Justice of the Peace and Captain of a company of New Durham men in the War of 1812. In his spare time he kept busy buying and selling land and regularly suing the town for damages occurring from roads being laid out through his holdings. He seems to have been an aggressive sort of fellow who wanted his own way - the first notation in one record of a town meeting was a vote that Reuben Hayes be not allowed to talk to the moderator about town business before the meeting started !
Deacon Solomon Hayes moved from Barrington to New Dur- ham before 1850 and lived on the cross road to Middleton. His wife was his first cousin Elizabeth Hayes, sister to Reuben. He was a devout member of the Free Will Baptist Church and a regular mem- ber at quarterly meetings.
Daniel Hayes of Alton married Maria Durgin in 1839 and they lived in the Durgin family homestead on the Middleton road, this house now occupied by Irving E. Jennings. Daniel Hayes ran his farm and timberlands profitably and was considered a man of wealth. His only child, a daughter Theresa, married Thomas Lang- ley, who was engaged in the lumber business and lived on Birch Hill in this town.
There were many other Hayes families in town (including the Hayes brothers who manufactured knives, mentioned in another chapter) but lack of space prevents a fuller account. For further research, we recommend the two volumes "John Hayes of Dover" by Katherine Fall Richmond, which is a fairly recent publication and a monumental achievement of genealogical research.
JONES
Samuel Jones, born in 1783, came to New Durham sometime before 1815, when he is recorded as owning Lot # 36 on New Dur- ham Ridge. This lot was owned in 1770 by Benjamin Bickford, who built a house there.
Samuel Jones married Nancy Bennett of New Durham in 1813; their son John L. Jones and his wife Nancy (Chamberlain) Jones (of Alton) were the parents of George F. Jones, born in 1840, who served this town in the Civil War. Samuel and his second wife Ann (Berry) Jones (of Alton) were the parents of Dana P. Jones, born in 1853, who served as Selectman for nine years.
George F. Jones and his wife were the parents of the late George H. Jones of New Durham and Rochester.
[85]
JOY
There is a little boy in the New Durham school today who is probably quite unaware that he bears a name well known in this town for about 180 years. In fact, he is of the eleventh generation to carry the name Samuel Joy.
The first one of this name in New Durham was a son of Deacon Samuel Joy and Hannah (Meader) Joy, of Durham, whose father and grandfather were also named Samuel Joy. He was listed in town in 1784 as owning 150 acres of land, plus oxen and cattle. In 1794 he married Hannah Edgerly, daugher of Jonathan and Sarah (Doe) Edgerly, raised a family and took an active part in town affairs, serving as a petit juror, Selectman (1799), surveyor of highways and collector of school money.
Since that time there has always been a Samuel Joy on the resident list except for a few years around 1895 when they moved to Dakota. The roots so firmly bound in New Hampshire soil refused to be broken and they returned to the land which had nurtured them for so many years.
The Joys live on the same homestead that Samuel settled in 1784 on the south side of New Durham Ridge.
TASH
The name Tash is found on many pages of New Durham his- tory from its earliest beginnings. Surely no one did more to pro- mote this settlement than Colonel Tash. His sons and grandsons carried on his work and served the town well and faithfully for many years.
Thomas Tash was born in Durham, N. H. in 1722. He started a long and distinguished career as an Indian scout in 1744, later served for eight years during the French and Indian wars. He was made Captain in Col. Joseph Blanchard's regiment against Crown Point in 1755 and held the rank of Major when he commanded a battalion of five companies of New Hampshire men for the defense of Fort Edward in 1757.
Major Tash had signed the original petition for the grant of land of this town; when they requested incorporation, Gov. Went- worth, in recognition of his military services, named him to call the first town meeting in 1762. From his home in Newmarket, he came to attend town meetings, encouraged the building of roads, built mills and spared neither time nor expense in promoting the welfare of New Durham.
When the Revolutionary War began, he was recommended by the Provincial Assembly for Field officer and was appointed Lieut .- Col. in June, 1776. In October he took command of a regiment and upon orders of General Washington proceeded to Peekskill, New York. The regiment saw service in New York, Trenton and Prince- ton under the commanding General.
[86]
After the campaign, he returned to Newmarket where he had been engaged in shipping, and now found time to act as Moderator and Selectman in New Durham, and also served this town, the Gore and Wolfeborough as Representative to the General Assembly at Exeter (which became the New Hampshire Legislature) in 1777, "78, '85, '91 and '92.
Col. Tash married (1st) Anne Freeman Parsons, a wealthy widow of Portsmouth, and (2nd) Miss Martha Crommett of Dur- ham, who was the mother of the following children: Thomas, Eliza- beth, Mary, William, Jacob, James, Martha and Patience.
The family moved to New Durham in 1783, all traveling on horseback, the Colonel with his little daughter Mary riding "pillion" behind him. They occupied the house that had been built for Reverend Porter, a fine house which stood on the east side of the Bay road just below New Durham corner. The Colonel and his lady lived in grand style, the house furnished with beautiful furniture, silver and paintings, and they had several slaves to do all the work.
Col. Tash died in Oct., 1809 at the age of 87 and is buried in a graveyard in back of the stone-walled field where his house once stood. His wife sold his land, mills and house, went to live with her son William and died in 1818.
Their oldest son Thomas, called "Squire" was noteworthy in his own way. A student of Greek and Latin, he was also an ex- cellent mathematician and surveyor; many of the roads, lots, lands and boundaries in town were perambulated and marked by him. He served as Town Clerk, Selectman, Lot Layer, Justice of the Peace and in many other capacities. He married Jane Allard in 1786 and their eldest son was Thomas, Junior. That name, too, is found on many a town report, showing that he, like his father and grand- father, served loyally the town they all loved so well.
