The Greggs were noted for more than ordinary strength of body and mind, having little aspiration for popular favor, but being most tena- cious in adherence to their religious convictions.3


1 Janet Collins, a woman of unusual mental strengthi, was born of English parents, Sept. 6, 1734, in Medford Village, Mass., in the "gable-roofed house by the big elm." She died in New Boston in 1819. James Gregg, Hannah's father, was born in 1746, and died in 1806.


2 Miss Charlotte Augusta Gregg, a daughter of Mrs. Andrew's brother Daniel, lived with her sister in Boston, and studied at Bowdoin school and Charlestown academy; taught at Danville, Ind., and three years at the Ohio Female College; also at Putnam Female Seminary, and in charge of a female seminary in Chicago for twenty-seven years having had under her instruction, it is believed, not less than two thousand five hun- dred young ladies.


3 At the siege of Derry one Gregg paid two shillings sixpence for a cat's head for his family to eat. One John Gregg, for refusing to abjure the Protestant faith, was drawn and quartered alive at Armagh; the quarters were then thrown in the father's face, who was afterwards murdered in the same way in the presence of his wife. This was in the county of Antrim during the Irish massacre of 1641-'42.

Dr. Samuel Gregg, a well known physician in Boston, was Mrs. Hannah G. Andrew's cousin. Joseph, her brother, resident in New Boston, attained marked success. In any case where he was a party in litigation, he would conduct his own suit. Mrs. Andrew's sister, Sally Gregg, m. John Brown, whose sons, Jeremiah and Joel, graduated at Dartmouth. Jeremiah pursued law in Boston, and Joel practised medicine in West Newton, Mass. Gov. J. Q. A. Brackett, of Massa- chusetts, is a grandson of this Sally Gregg and her husband, John Brown.

Hannah Gregg, m. Nathan Andrew.


Nathan and Hannah Andrew were both famous for their industry, and, though she was lame from childhood, she was not one whit behind him in this characteristic. Her skill with the loom was widely known. They were people of thrift, kind to the poor, and neighborly to all. In due time, with the enlargement of their means, they erected, in 1811, a more ample house and barn in Sutton, where they removed. A characteristic of Mr. Andrew was manifested when these buildings were suddenly reduced to ashes in April 19, 1834. It was the custom then, in a loss by fire, for the neighbors to aid in making it good by their gifts. This aid Mr. Andrew declined. He rebuilt better barns, and erected the brick house in which Mr. and Mrs. Andrew departed this life. The brick house was burned Aug. 28, 1890. They raised their children with the utmost care, training them in industry and intelligence, according to the precepts of the Bible. They attended the Congregational church at Bradford Centre most of the time, but Mr. Andrew became deeply interested in immersion, and he and his sons, Nathan, John, and Samuel, were among the largest contributors to the building of the Baptist church, near the Mill Village ; indeed, Mr. Andrew gave the church about half the pews in it. Mrs. Andrew, after ninety, would repeat numerous hymns learned in her youth. Na- than Andrew d. Sept. 7, 1853, aged eighty-six, and his wife, Hannah Gregg Andrew, d.

HISTORY OF SUTTON.


Sally G. Andrew devoted herself to the care of her parents until she married, Jan. 22, 1852, Abel Woodworth, b. at Coventry, Conn., May 18, 1781, of Kingsbury, N. Y. She removed with him to Sandy Hill, N. Y., where she d. April 13, 1862. Mr. Woodworth d. at Forest- port, N. Y., Aug. 10, 1865. Mrs. Woodworth was noted for the strength of her moral and religious convictions, for her skill in housekeeping and in water-cure, and for her unselfish devotion to her kindred. She was an early and aggressive advocate of temperance and of the aboli- tion of slavery. On account of the proslavery preaching of the pastor, she ceased attending the church, and her name was dropped from its rolls. Later, when the church had come more nearly in accord with her position, she was restored to full fellowship. From her savings she made various bequests; among them was one to an orphan asylum in New York city, and one to the American Missionary Association.


Nathan Andrew, Jr., m. Dolly Sargent Pillsbury, b. Feb. 16, 1801, the daughter of Micajah and Sally Pillsbury. They lived all of their married life, of nearly fifty-seven years, upon the same farm, adjoining that of Nathan's father, which was managed by his brother, Samuel. The relation between Nathan and Samuel for all these years was a model of unbroken fraternal reciprocity and kindness. Nathan was a- sturdy farmer of untiring energy. In his younger days he was a cap- tain of the militia. He was a man of a fine vein of humor, of rare good judgment, and of strong principle. There was never any doubt where Nathan Andrew stood upon any public question. His wife, Dolly, was loved by all who knew her for her kindliness and for her wonderfully even and sunny temperament. Nathan and Dolly, in their old age, greatly enjoyed a visit they made to the great West, and to the homes of their prosperous sons, Thomas F. and George H. Andrew, in Minneapolis, Minn. The burning of their home was the cause of their taking this, to them, long journey. Their sons, finding their par- ents, in spite of their enjoyment, yearning for their old home, without their knowledge rebuilt the house as it stood before the fire, and prob- ably they were never happier nor more surprised than, when allowed to return, to find their home restored. Both died at the old homestead, Nathan on March 16, 1883, and Dolly on June 29, 1883. Children,-

Thomas Francis Andrews lived at home, assisting his father on the farm, until twenty years of age, when he went to Concord to work in the store of the late John P. Goss, as clerk, for the sum of $65 per annum and board. He afterward clerked in the same city for Bullock & Sargent and for J. Frank Hoit. September 1, 1855, he went to St. Anthony's Falls, now Minneapolis, Minn., which was then 400 miles from the nearest railway. The whole territory of Minnesota then had less population than Minneapolis now has. He has resided there ever since. For over twenty years he was merchandising in company with his brother, George H. Andrews. More recently he has been dealing extensively in real estate. He is one of the large property holders and generous-hearted citizens of Minneapolis. For over thirteen years he has served his adopted city in important official positions with marked fidelity and honor, and has often been chosen trustee and administrator of estates.

He was also the owner of a large plantation on Dean's island in the river. As a steamboat captain he was a great favorite. He built and owned several steamboats; one of these he named the "H. J.
