thought, wearing a silk hat. Grandmother was a minister's daughter, (Rev. Moses Elliott, a Dartmouth graduate about Webster's time). They came to Sunapee from Amesbury, Mass. Grandmother was a noble looking woman, gentle, re- ligious. She died when I was in college.

There were other combinations at earlier and later dates. Will Flanders was a good catcher, also Dell Bartlett. Ernest Muzzey, Herbert Page, Bert Tucker, Clarence Cross played well.


Charles Mathews, who for several years was a moulder in the Smith Foundry, had a wife and two children, John and Lena. The latter married Dr. Cane of Newport. Charles was a popular citizen. He and his wife have deceased. John went South.


David Winn, the father of George and Lizzie Winn, who lived on Winn Hill, were citizens and Church folk of stand- ing in the generation of my father. Lizzie married a Mr. Dodge who did not last long in Sunapee. The Winns are all deceased. Old buildings gone.


Solon Abbott lived where Avon Currier now resides. He had a son William who died in his teens, -- a very bright boy, a daughter, Minnie, who married Ernest Muzzey, and a daughter Hattie who married Mott Muzzey. Mr. Abbott ran a shop in the Smith Row.


Joseph C. Savory mentioned in the 1870 census owned and lived on the farm later owned by my father, now by Aston Young. Old house gone. New buildings erected nearer the village.


Sylvester Rowell and Elmer Rowell were active citizens during the past two generations. May be related to Irving G. Rowell.

Few, at this time, may recall Captain Roby who kept the "pound" for many years. Remains of it may be seen now. It was a high stone enclosure built against a high ledge,-a pen in which to imprison stray cattle. It was about fifteen feet in diameter, and six feet high. The ledge which made one side of it is twelve feet high. It was close to his house on the George's Mills road, and can be seen now. Before that the town would vote someone's barn to be the "pound" and elect him pound-keeper.


CHAPTER LXXIII WE SUPPOSE


We suppose some will call our story of Sunapee incom- plete because we have not strung out a list of crimes and ca- lamities. Of course, there were some in Sunapee as in all other towns. But what doth it profit us to preserve their memory.


It would have done no harm, perhaps, to tell how fisher- men caught a black bear swimming in the lake and how he escaped from his temporary collar and prison in the tannery, and the consequent laugh which Mr. Bruin had on his boast- ing captors as he slipped away and walked off leisurely to his lair.


And if I knew, I'd like to tell of the biggest fish that was ever caught in the lake, or the largest number of foxes that Jim Perkins ever dropped in one season, or the largest bag of partridges ever shot in one day by Perley Bartlett.


And it might be interesting to relate how many bushels of suckers or smelts were caught in one night by torch light in Roger's sucker brook when the fish "ran up" that stream in the spring, or how they used to fish for pick- erel through the ice in "Job's Creek" with many tackles set in many holes, and skating was good.


And we suppose no history of Sunapee would be complete without recording a fiction of social caste, we had when someone named Sunapee's three altitudinal levels as "Shang-


187


hi," "Souptown," and "Duck Holler," for those names in some minds, were supposed to grade the three parts of the mile- long, down hill village on the basis of social standing,-rich, moderate and poor,-Harbor, Smithville and Lower Village.


And we suppose we should have written up a pile of words about the hurricane. But why? It was simply a case of nature getting mad and doing its worst. I like to forget it.


CHAPTER LXXIV


SUNAPEE CHECK LIST FOR NOVEMBER ELECTION OF 1940


We are publishing in this Chapter all the legal voters of Sunapee at the Presidential election of 1940, both men and women.


We have already published herein the United States census of 1870 which contained only "heads of families." The Cen- sus Bureau is prohibited by law from permitting any census lists since 1870 to be copied, as we did that of 1870.


We have also published herein the census of 1830 and the first census, namely, that of 1791.


Prior to that (1791) we have given the list of 1781 when Saville became Wendell.


The first Sunapee list of any kind was the Association Test of 1776, containing 18 heads of families.


Thus the growth and the personnel can be seen and studied. To us this seemed an ideal, though new, policy for presenting a town history.


As far as we could we have given the record of the earliest families, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, thus helping those in the list of 1940 to trace themselves back and connect, if possible.


Many new families have come in since 1870. A comparison of lists will show who they are.


There will arise, in many minds, many problems. For instance, we recall that the old John Bartlett farm was oc- cupied by James Collins for many years, and our records


Thomas P. Smith


Judge A. D. Felch


Murvin A. Bailey


Mcclellan Q. Muzzey


189


show that Rebecca Bartlett, one of the nine sisters of the said John Bartlett, married one, Jesse Collins. That raised a query, are the 17 voters bearing the Collins name in 1940 the result of that marriage?


Another query, along the same line, is that Nancy Bart- lett, another of the nine sisters of John Bartlett, married Allen A. Putney, and still another of the nine sisters, Abigail Bartlett, married Jonathan Putney. Could the two Putneys of 1940 be, in any way, traced back to them?


And there is even one more of those nine sisters to be reckoned with. She is Mary Bartlett and she married Jesse Brown. We note in the 1940 list that there are six Browns.


We have already shown herein how still another of the nine sisters, Irene Bartlett, married Stephen Rowell, and how that produced the Rowells of Sunapee and Newport.


Of course, there are many new families in Sunapee since 1870,-families that do not connect with any of the old fam- ilies. But, in a hundred years from now some genealogist will be attempting to trace his line back to them.


George W. Haven of Sunapee died in a Rebel prison in the Civil War, and John B. Haven was a resident in 1870. These facts may interest Town Clerk Oscar R. Haven to see what he can learn from a family search.


New London has recently contributed to our population two of its fine Shepard family, namely, Paul B. Shepard and Samuel F. Shepard, both as active business men.


T. Oliver Russell of George's Mills still carries on at that end of Sunapee where the Russell name has been conspicu- ous for two generations.


Ever since the two Sisco brothers were in the Revolution- ary War from Saville we have had a few fine families who came to us from Canada. Now we have eleven Fortunes, nine Gregorys, seven Leones, and two Tatros.

Sunapee has been well governed in all the years. There have been no defalcations. The tax rate is about the av- erage although all are too high. Mr. Samuel Crowther is correct as stated by him in the chapter on "Industries." Wise counsel is needed.


The Governor Bartlett open-air Theatre and Playground will be dedicated on September 26, 1941.
