Leaving the little cemetery at the foot of the hill, a sharp climb of about a quarter of a mile toward the north by the road leading to East Lebanon, which is laid out through the Smith (now Wash- burn) and Howe farms, brings a pedestrian to its highest traveled elevation. From that point a road leads easterly to "Fox Hollow" and the Enfield Shaker settlement at "Lake Mascoma." This road separates the Howe and Stickney (now Creighton) farms, and for something less than a mile from the first named highway has a slightly descending grade. On its northerly side, about a half mile from its starting point, is another small cemetery with an area of about a half acre. The inscriptions on its memorial stones follow :

This group of Purmonts were doubtless descendants of the emigrant Philemon, the first schoolmaster of Boston. In the quarterly publications of the New England Historical and Genealogical Register, for the first fifty years of its existence, the name in various spellings appears in eleven of its volumes. In none of them is there an indication that any other fam- ily carrying that surname emigrated from Europe to America. The Boston Latin School dates from 1635. It was established to prepare young men for college, but as it was the only town school for more than thirty years, doubtless there were other studies for its pupils than those required for a knowledge of the Latin language. The site of its first building on School Street. by the easterly bound of King's Chapel and the westerly line of the City Hall estate, is marked by a brouze tablet that recites the vote of the town meeting of April 13, 1635 : " Likewise it was then generally agreed upon, that our brother Philemon Pormont, shal be intreated to become scholemaster, for the nourtering of children with us." The history of Exeter, N. H., says " Philemon Pormont, was married in Alford. Lincoln- shire, England, Oct. 11, 1627, to Susanna, daughter of William Belling- ham. . . They were admitted to the Church in Boston in Aug., 1634. He was . . . dismissed in January 1639 to the Exeter church. He was in Boston in 1653, and is supposed to have removed thence to Great Istand, or Portsmouth. Descendants bearing his name have till lately, lived in the vicinity."

The Sargent Genealogy, published in 1899, gives the record of the eighth, ninth and tenth generations of this branch of the family as follows : " Jonathan3 ( Philip," Ebenezer,6 Philip, 543 William21), born Orange, Vt., Jan. 3, 1812, married March 1, 1835, Lodice Purmont of Enfield, there, where she was born Dec. 23, 1813, died April 5, 1801 ; he died Dec. 22, 1888, both at Enfield where he was a farmer. Children born Enfield.

She was born at Northfield, Vt., Feb. 10, 1844. Children, Clara . . . Philip. . . Clara married George D. Bosworth ; Nathaniel Philip, married Georgie Emily Stearns, daughter of Lucius Hurlburt.

Frank,9 Dec. 14, 1832 ; married Ida J. Peaslee, of Springfield. Resided and children born, Grafton."


Before the destruction of the Sargent family Bible, it showed that the birth of Eliphalets was recorded as that of Mason Bill Sargent, and that of his marriage as Eliphalet M. B. Sargent. The History of the Bill Family published in 1867, makes it clear that he was named for Dr. Eliph- alet Mason Bill, born Lebanon, Conn., 1775, and died 1834, who was of Orange, Vt., from 1804 to 1839. As the record of the genealogy concern- ing Jonathan Bosworth Sargent and his wife differs somewhat from that taken from the Bible, the copy from that book is here inserted.
