PETER WEAVER.


About the year 1700, there came to this country, from England, three brothers by the name of Weaver, of the Friends persuasion, who settled in Swanzey, Mass., where they married. One of the brothers, Peter, was three times married. His first wife was a Miss Baker, and to them were born four children. Jonathan, the eldest, becoming captain of a whaling vessel, was lost at sea with ship and crew. Hannah married a Mr. Trot, Mary, a Mr. Cart- wright, and Phebe, Mr. Terry.


Peter's second marriage was to Miss Davis. By this union there were five children, namely, Joseph, Thomas, Benjamin, Elsie, and Anna.


The parents of Peter Weaver were Thomas, born April 2, 1756, and Hannah (Law) Weaver, born March 20, 1759. Thomas died June, 1832, and Hannah died Aug. 30, 1831, in the town of Peru, Clinton Co., N. Y., and lie buried in the Friends' burying-ground of that place. By this union there were cight children, viz .: Hannah, Peter, Samuel, Patience, Lydia, Anna, Benjamin, and Thomas.


Peter Weaver, the subject of this sketch, was born in Somerset, Mass., Dec. 20, 1782, where he lived till the spring of 1798, when he removed with his parents to Clar- endon, Vt. They remained there but two years, when they again moved, this time to Peru, Clinton Co., N. Y., where they arrived March 2, 1800. His father engaged in farm- ing, and Peter's early life was spent on a farm. His educa- tional advantages were of the most meagre kind,-only such as the newness of the country afforded,-usually of one or two months of the year.


At the age of twenty-five, Peter was married to Sally Ketchum, daughter of Capt. Ketchum, on Nov. 22, 1807. By this union there was one ehild, Stephen K., born Sept. 22, 1808. His wife dying, Peter was married a second


time, marrying Ruth Baker. His third and present wife was Susan Butler, of North Hero, Vt., whom he married Feb. 2, 1820, and by her had ninc children, viz. : Frances, Sarah K., Junius B., Lorin B., Mariette B., William B., Nathan R., Leroy S., and Susan A.


In 1808 Peter Weaver began housekeeping in the town of Plattsburgh,-sinee set off as town of Schuyler Falls,- on some land previously purchased by him for five dollars per aere. This land was situated two miles from the Salmon River, in the midst of a deep wood, with no road but a bridle-path leading thereto. Here he built him a log house of some pretensions for those times, which served as a resi- dence for his family, and as a resting-place for other pioneer families while their own houses were building. This build- ing, much modified and improved, having been entirely en- elosed by brick walls, is known as the Weaver homestead, and is now occupied and owned by his son, Junius Weaver.


In politics Mr. Weaver has been an advocate of freedom and of the principles inculcated by Gerrit Smith, William Lloyd Garrison, and others, and has always taken an active interest in the politics of the country and of his own town, and has filled with credit the positions to which his towns- men have elected him.


For the past fifty years he has been a consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal Church of Schnyler Falls, and has contributed liberally to its support. He stands high in the estimation of all who know him.


Mr. Weaver is still living, at the ripe age of ninety-six ; has been blind for the past few years, and is slightly deaf. With these exceptions, his faculties are unimpaired, and his physical health almost perfect.


The portrait given above is from a portrait by Prowers painted thirty-five years ago.

JARED M. TAYLOR.


JARED M. TAYLOR traces his descent from John Taylor, great-grandfather of Jared, and one of the earli- est settlers of Rhode Island.


William Taylor, grandfather of Jared, was born in Rhode Island Feb. 27, 1773; removing with his parents to Warren, Conn., in 1775, thence, when thirteen years of age, to Petersburgh, N. Y. He was married Dec. 15, 1793, to Elizabeth Maxon. They became the parents of eight children. In 1797 he removed to Peru (now Ausable), Clinton Co., where he lived until his death, Feb. 26, 1844.


Humphrey Taylor was born in Petersburgh ; came to Peru with his parents; was a farmer by occupation ; was a soldier in the war of 1812-15, and participated in the battle of Plattsburgh.


Jared M. Taylor, son of Humphrey and Lettice (Clark) Taylor, was born Oct. 29, 1823, in the town of Ausable, Clinton Co., N. Y. At the age of nineteen he learned the trade of a moulder.


At the age of twenty-five he was married to Emily


Stickles, of Schuyler Falls. Their children have been Mary Lettie and Albert H.


In 1849, Mr. Taylor moved to a little hamlet in the town of Schuyler Falls, which he called Morrissonville, a name it has ever since retained.


Here he built a foundry for the manufacture of plows and machinery, which he still conducts. Be- sides his foundry business, he is largely engaged in the manufacture of starch, carrying on a large factory for that purpose, consuming annually from fifteen thousand to twenty-five thousand bushels of potatoes. He also owns and keeps in operation a woolen-mill in Morris- sonville, where are made full-cloths, flannels, and cassi- meres.


Mr. Taylor affiliates with the Republican party, and by it has been elected to town offices. In religion he is a Baptist, joining the church of that denomination in Keeseville at the age of twenty. He is esteemed by all who know him as an honorable, upright, Christian gentleman.

During the year 1835 the first Methodist Episcopal church was built in what is now called the town of Schuyler Falls, then West Plattsburgh, on Beckwith Street, about middle way between the villages of Schuyler Falls and Morrisonville, on land purchased of George Hawkins, at a cost of $1500, which was named the Second Methodist Episcopal Church of the town of Plattsburgh.


On the 12th day of October, 1835, a meeting of the members of this church and congregation was held in the newly-ereeted church building, and Peter Weaver, now alive and nearly one hundred years old, was called to pre- side over the meeting, and Peter J.

During the year 1853, quite a large society having sprung up at either end of the town, it was mutually agreed to divide the old church, and those living southerly unite with the church at Schuyler Falls, which was organized in 1846, and the northerly members establish a society at Morrison- ville, at the north end of the town, in the village of Mor- risonville, on land donated by James E.

the consecration services being held by D. W. Dayton, at that time presiding elder of Burlington District, James Henry, Sr., presenting the house in honor of the present pastor, John M. Wever, as the " Wever Chapel." Its size is 40 by 50 feet, a wood building painted white, with bel- fry built in modern style. The cost of its erection was estimated at $2000.


Owing to the division of the society the membership was reduced to about 50. The society now numbers 60 members.


The names of the ministers succeeding John M. Wever were, 1855-56, - Foster; 1857, Abel Foul; 1858-59, John M. Wever; 1860, D. B. Mckenzie; 1861-62, G. S. Gold; 1863-64, C. C. Bedell ; 1865-66, S. M.

Hager was employed to fill the vacancy until Conference convened ; 1873-74, Andrew Witherspoon ; 1875-76, D. C. Ayer; 1877-78, S. D. Elkins ; 1879, M. M. Curry.


The names of the present stewards are William B. Weaver, R. H. Emery, E. J. Vaughan, L. Adcock, James Riley ; R. H. Emery, Recording Steward.

An incident in the course of the construction of the building evinced the energy and perseverance of the few who bore the burden and carried the responsibility of the work to its completion, active and foremost among whom was Orrin C. Spalding, a champion against the opposition of those who sought to thwart the enterprise, and against the elements which almost ruined a good begun work. In the month of April, after having raised and partially covered the frame-work, a severe storm arose accompanied with a high wind and blew it down, breaking and crashing the timbers, rendering it necessary to make new almost the entire frame-work. But nothing daunted, the invincible few set to work clearing away the ruins, and within one week they had re-erected the frame and had the work pros- perously under way.
