GENEALOGIES : REV. JOSEPH-S. COGSWELLA.
COGSWELL FAMILY.
1. John Cogswell' emigrated from London, England, to Ips- wich, Mass., in 1635, and was made freeman, March 3, 1636.
2. William", his son, was father of
3. John3, of Ipswich. The latter was father of
4. Nathaniel4, of Haverhill, Mass., who had nineteen children, and all were baptized in the Congregational church of that place. Fourteen were sons, eight of whom served in the Revolutionary army; the aggregate time of service was over 3 years.
5. Colonel Amos5, his son, was b. at Haverhill, Mass., Oct. 2, 1752; d. at Dover, N. H., Jan. 25, 1826.
6. Francis6, his son, b. at Dover, April 16, 1790, and m. Elizabeth, dau. of Joseph Smith, of Dover, and were the parents of
7. Joseph-Smith7. Rev. Joseph-S. Cogswell7, of Windham, was b. in Boseawen (the part now called Webster, N. H.), Oct. 29, 1836. The schools of his early childhood and youth were of a superior kind. The teachers were highly cultured and refined, some of whom have since attained to eminence. Among them were Professors R. C. Stanley and B. F. Hayes, of Bates College ; E. R. Ruggles, of Dartmouth College ; President E. P. Tenney, of Colorado College : and J. W. Spaulding and George R. Twiss, Esquires. He was for a time a member of the New Hampton Literary Institution.
In the winter of 1859 he resolved to go to Pike's Peak, but in April, learning there was more excitement than gold in that see- tion, he started for California, via the Isthmus of Panama, and after landing at San Francisco, went to the northern part of the State. There, under the shadow of the stern sentinel of the Pacific coast, Mount Shasta, he engaged in teaching in the beautiful Shasta Valley, and this was his principal occupation for the four years which he spent in California. Returning in 1863, he resumed farming occupations, and in October, 1864, m. Mary- Frances, dau. of James and Mary-Frances (Blood) Darrah, of Bedford, N. H .; she was b. in Bedford, June 12, 1842. He had always, from his conversion, taken an active part in religions meetings. He decided to enter the ministry, and was graduated at the Theological Seminary at Bangor, Maine, in 1868, and pro- ceeded immediately to Minnesota. His wife d. Nov. 14, 1868, at Zambrota, being lamented by her husband and a large circle of friends. He returned in Oct. 1869, to Maine, and began his labors with the Congregational church at Holden ; was installed Jan. 6, 1870. On Feb. 23, 1870, he was m. to Ellen-Victoria, dan. of William-Jarvis and Eliza-Britton (Copeland) Hart, of Holden, where she was b. Sept. 13, 1839. He continued his min- istry there until dismissed by council, May 1, 1873, to accept a call to the Congregational church at Strong, Me. There he remained two years, during which he was chosen a delegate from the Franklin County Conference to the National Congrega-

tional Council at New Haven; also, a member of the Board of Examination to visit and report to the State Conference concern- ing the condition of Bangor Theological Seminary. Mr. Cogs- well was chosen chairman, and his printed report may be found in the Maine Conference Minutes for 1874. He has written con- siderably for the secular and religious press. In 1875, he moved to West Auburn, Me., and became acting pastor there. There he spent six years of devoted service to the Master. The people were very kind to him and his family, but, thinking that a change might prove beneficial to himself and of service to Christ's cause, he accepted, Oct. 13, 1881, the call which the Presbyterian church and society of Windham, N. H., gave him. He was duly installed by the Boston Presbytery as pastor, Dec. 21, 1881, and entered upon his pastorate with pleasing prospects. Previous to his studying for the ministry, Mr. Cogswell was made a justice of the peace by Gov. J .- A. Gilmore, July 7, 1864. He wrote a his- tory of Androscoggin County, Maine, for a large history of New England, published by Crocker & Co., Boston; sketch of the City of Auburn, for D. Appleton & Co. He is a member of the American Peace Society, and has written and spoken often in behalf of Arbitration. Children : -

CORLISS FAMILY.
One of the earliest, but now forsaken, homesteads of Windham was situated at the junction of two roads, one leading from Simp- son's mill to Salem, the other leading from the cemetery on the hill to that town. Only a few things mark the spot where for two generations large families of children grew up and passed out into the activities of life. The cellar remains, and the well from which arose " the old oaken bucket" is still there, and a few large stones show where the barn stood ; this is all.
1. George Corliss1, the founder of the family, was born about 1617; came from Devonshire, England, in 1639, and settled in Newbury, Mass. ; soon removed to Haverhill, where he d. 1686. He m. Joanna Davis, Oct. 26, 1645, a sister of Thomas Davis, of Marlborough, England. They had ten children : -
2. John2, and nine daughters. Their dau. Mary m. a Neff, and was an Indian captive with Mrs. Duston. The old homestead is still in the family name in Haverhill, West Parish. John2 m. Dec. 17, 1684, Mary Wilford ; 7 ch. His son,

5. Joseph5, b. Nov. 29, 1747 ; m. about 1767, Miriam Emer- son. He was the ancestor of the Windham Corlisses. Leaving his wife and child in Haverhill, he came to the then wilds of Windham, to make himself a home. He had already earned one hundred dollars by peddling linen thread for the Londonderry settlers. With this he bought of one Thompson, who lived at the corner, one hundred aeres of land, with a small house. His family joined him. He built a large house, which remained there until 1840, when it was removed to Lowell, Mass. His wife dy- ing, leaving nine ch., he m. Betsey Utinox, dau. of Francis, and a descendant of the Huguenots. Her father left France for Eng- land, where he m. Mary Lee, descendant of Harry Lee, whom Walter Scott has made historic. He and wife and son sailed for America. Betsey, the dau., was born on the voyage. On their arrival the father and son died ; the young mother soon followe 1,

but on her death-bed she remembered the dear old faith of her fathers; had her child christened and left in charge of a god- mother, who used to buy her thread and linen of the Londonderry settlers. She thought it would be a fine thing to have her young charge sent among those good people, and learn to spin and weave, and be brought up in all their quiet industry; so the little waif drifted into the family of Mr. Gregg, of Londonderry ; was catechised by Rev. David McGregor. She seldom realized that she had no kith or kin in all the wide world. Having learned the weaver's trade, she went among the settlers and wove for them when needed. After a time she drifted into the town of Wind- ham, and was brought under the influence of the saintly Wil- liams.
" There's a divinity that shapes our ends. Rough hew them how we will."
In those days there was a law, that every transient person should be warned out of town by the constable; so that if the person ever needed public aid, the county, and not the town, would be responsible. Joseph Corliss was constable, and it became his duty to perform the disagreeable task. He found Betsey Uti- nox, the young, friendless French girl, weaving at the house of his mother-in-law, dressed in her red dress, for she was French in all her ways. The stern constable read to her the dreadful law, with the penalties affixed, to which she was liable, if she did not leave the town within a stated number of days. With frightened eyes she listened, and for once in her life the loneliness of her homeless and friendless condition burst in upon her mind with overpowering might, and the flood-gates of her soul were broken down. They soothed her by saying the law was a mere form. She never forgot that scene, and in her old age would relate it with fire and indignation shining in her faded eyes. It was an event, too, that the constable, Joseph Corliss, never forgot, for when, years afterwards, his wife died, he was glad to ask her to be a mother to his motherless children, and by her presence to brighten his home and life.
This is about the only romantic incident I have found in this early settlement, and that scene is worthy for a painter to sketch upon enduring canvas, or for a Whittier to weave into verse im- mortal.
Mr. Corliss by his second wife had five children. He left this farm to his son Solomon, and bought a farm near the school-house in Dist. No. 7. The house stood some thirty rods south of the school-house, and the okl cellar is still there. On this farm he lived till his death in 1820.

landmarks are now gone, it was a part of what is now the Senter farm. He is said to have been a sea-captain. Be this as it may, he became a large land-owner. He bought land of the Rev.
