HISTORY OF ELIZABETHTOWN
Thomas, Hannah, Abigail, Dinah, Thomas, Mercy and Lydia,
John Brown, son of Thomas Brown, married Elizabeth Pot- ter Feb. 23, 1715. Their children were John, Elizabeth, Grace, John, Hannah, Josiah, Joseph, Rebecca and Josiah, the latter born Jan. 30, 1743.
Josiah Brown (b. 1743) married Sarah Wright Oct. 31, 1765. Their children were Josiah, Joseph Jonas, Sarah, Aaron, Amos, Abner, Rebecca, Levi, Nathan, Howard and Abigail, all born in New Ipswich, N. H.
Josiah Brown, father of the 12 children named, was a Ser- geant in Thomas Heald's New Ipswich Company and marched from New Ipswich April 20, 1775, on the Alarm of the Battle at Concord, 13 days, also First Lieutenant in Captain Ezra Towne's 4th Company in Colonel James Reed's Regiment, New Hampshire troops, serving 2 months and 27 days from May 10, 1775. This regiment was engaged at Bunker Hill, where Captain Towne's Company, says history, "did sharp execution, being good marksmen and having the wind in their favor. They were the last Company to leave the field and Lieutenant Brown believed he fired the final shot before the retreat."
Josiah Brown also served as Captain of a Company de- tached from Colonel Enoch Hale's Regiment, New Hampshire Militia, and marched to reinforce the Continental Army at Ti- conderoga May 6, 1777, and June 29, 1777. Reference to Jo- siah Brown's service in the Revolutionary War may be found in New Hampshire State Papers, Volume XIV, pages 34, 88, Volume XV, pages 1, 20-22, 92-94.
On page 20 of the Life of Nathan Brown one learns that Captain Josiah Brown's "resolute right hand wore the blue mitten once famous in New Ipswich town meetings. It be- came a common saying in regard to undecided voters, that 'they always waited till they saw the blue mitten go up.'"

HISTORY OF ELIZABETHTOWN
Nathan Brown, the Baptist Missionary to Tokio, Japan, and William Goldsmith Brown, author of the famous war lyrics "A Hundred Years to Come," "Roanoke,""Before Petersburg," etc., were grandsons of Captain Josiah Brown.
A century ago Captain Josiah Brown bought land in what is now the town of Lewis, Essex County, N. Y., and there his son Deacon Levi and two of his daughters --- Rebecca who married Nathan Perry and Abigail who married Deacon Asa Farnsworth-settled.
Deacon Levi Brown married Betsey Temple May 15, 1803. Their children were Eliza, Elewisa, Sally, Phebe, Betsey, Levi De Witt and Benjamin. Deacon Levi Brown's military record has been touched upon in the chapter on War of 1812. Suf- fice to say that his son Levi DeWitt became Captain of an in- dependent Militia Company. Levi DeWitt Brown married Lovina Kneeland. Their children were Augusta Prudence, Friend Abner, John Kneeland, Walter Scott and George Levi.
Augusta Prudence Brown married Edward J. Smith. She died at Fort Ann, N. Y., in 1877 and was buried there. A son, Edward Levi, and a daughter, Minnie A., live in Maryland.
Friend Abner Brown married Hila E. Partridge and they occupy the Brown farm in the Boquet Valley.
John Kneeland Brown married Lizzie N. James. They have one daughter, Mrs. Fred A. Marvin of Lewis.
Walter Scott Brown, now Superintendent of the Adirondack Mountain-Reserve, married Mary L. Pond. They have one daughter, Mary Elizabeth.
George Levi Brown married Edith Mary Durand. Their children are Edith Lovina, Analita Augusta and Thomas Augustus.
All the children of Levi DeWitt Brown were born in Eliz- abethtown and brought up, largely, on a farm, being bred to

HISTORY OF ELIZABETHTOWN
live religious, temperate, industrious lives, both parents being Baptists. That the escutcheon of the Brown family has never been tarnished by any act of her children and that not one of them has ever brought reproach to her fair name, a kind and loving mother can now say, in her old age, without fear of con- tradiction.
Ore and Peat.
Castaline Bed was discovered and worked to some extent about 1800. The bed is situated on the Post farm.
The Ross Bed is located on lot No. 72, Roaring BrookTract, and was discovered about 1800.
Nigger Hill Bed, so-called, was discovered by Frederick Haasz about 1825. This property was sold by the Henry R. Noble heirs to Jay Cooke, etc., for $100,000.
Wakefield Bed was discovered about 1845 and was opened by Col. E. F. Williams. This bed is on the Stephen B. Pitkin farm just south of New Russia.
Little Pond Bed is on lot No. 199, Iron Ore Tract, and was also opened by Col. E. F. Williams in the 40s.
Judd Bed was discovered about 1845 and opened by David Judd.
Finney Bed was discovered in 1854 on lot No. 136, Iron Ore Tract. This bed was named after Anson Finney upon whose farm it was located. It was opened by Oliver Abel, Jr., Wil- liam Whitman Root, John E. McVine and John H. Sanders, the latter finally trading his interest and getting well off out of it.
Gates Bed was discovered on the Gates farm in 1840. This bed was operated as late as the early 80s by H. A. Putnam.
Steele Bed is located on lot No. 189, Iron Ore Tract. This bed was discovered in 1810 and named after Jonathan Steele.
Mitchell Bed was discovered about 1830, being located on
Deer's Head Inn, B. F. Stetson, Proprietor.

lot No. 116, Iron Ore Tract. It was opened by Eliab Mitchell, hence its name.
Buck and Noble Beds are situated on lots No. 109 and 110, Iron Ore Tract, near the boundary line between Elizabethtown and Moriah, having been discovered about 40 years ago.
Burt Bed was discovered about 1840, being in the extreme southeast corner of Elizabethtown.
Practically all this ore deposit is as so much stone, not hav- ing been used for lo these many years.
A large peat bed is situated on land owned by Richard L. Hand, just above the old Camp Ground. This bed was sur- veyed and ditched over half a century ago and is said to be the most valuable deposit of peat in Northern New York.
Saw Mills and Forges.
The first saw-mills erected in Elizabethtown were un- doubtedly the one on the Boquet River at what is now New Russia and the one built by Stephen Roscoe at what is now known as Rice's Falls on the Branch or Little Boquet. The first saw-mill at New Russia stood on the east side of the Bo- quet and afterwards one was erected on the west side of the stream, in fact one is located there to-day, being operated by Julius Burres.
Six saw-mills originally stood along the Black River. The upper one was known as the Kingdom saw-mill, just below which was one operated by Willis Gates, Sr. Next below Gates was the Douglass saw-mill and a short distance below Douglass was the Steele mill. At what is now Meigsville stood what old men still refer to as the Smith saw-mill and last on the Black River was the saw-mill at what has long been known as the Brainard's Forge settlement.
The Eber Ober saw-mill was at Silver Cascade on the Barton
471
HISTORY OF ELIZABETHTOWN
Brook and there Eber Ober is said to have lost his life shortly after 1817.
The Thompson saw-mill stood just across the road from the present residence of Nelson Shores. After the old saw- mill rotted down a new one was erected, which latter structure the writer remembers. James Edwin Thompson was the last operator of this mill.
The Call saw-mill stood on the Ladd Brook, just above where the Separator afterward stood.
The Robards Rice saw-mill stood just across the road from the old Deacon Harry Glidden farm house. The modern Deacon Glidden saw-mill stood on the site of the old Robards Rice mill.
Lorenzo Rice built a saw-mill on Deep Hollow Brook just below The Balsams settlement of to-day but found the stream too small for successful operation, took the mill down and re- erected it on the Durand Brook at the falls just back of where Arthur Cauley lives in the Boquet Valley.
Moses Swinton once had a saw mill on Big Sucker Brook which flows into Simonds Pond from the Moriah Mountain side. This saw-mill burned under circumstances which indi- cated a fire of incendiary origin.
Jonathan Post for years operated a saw-mill on Roaring Brook, though but little trace of the old structure now re- mains.
There was also a saw-mill at the Miller settlement on the road to Keene and one in the southwestern part of the town, known for many years as the Yaw mill.
Whallon and Judd had a saw-mill which they operated at the Valley Forge settlement.
The late Charles N. Williams built and operated two saw- mills, one on the Little Boquet, just below the Rice grist-mill, and one on the Boquet River just below Fisher Bridge, so
472
HISTORY OF ELIZABETHTOWN
called. The latter mill is now owned and operated by Living- ston Woodruff.
The Lobdell Brothers have a new saw-mill which stands near where the Roscoe mill stood.
Six forge sites are pointed out along the Black River. Highest up on the stream was The Kingdom forge built by Frederick Haasz about 1825, the Nobles backing the venture and possessing the property a few years later. Next below The Kingdom forge stood the one known as the Hatch forge, (Hatch & Storrs) this being on the east side of the stream, in what is now Westport. Next below the Hatch forge stood the one built by Captain John Lobdell during the summer of 1836, according to a contract in possession of his only sur- viving son, Jerome T. Lobdell. Barnabas Myrick was a "silent partner," furnishing capital while Captain John Lobdell did the work. The Lobdell forge stood on the west side of the stream, being on lot No. 5, Morgan's Patent. It was this forge that Guy Meigs and Elder Calvin Fisher operated after Cap- tain John Lobdell left Meigsville. A short distance below the Lobdell forge stood the one built by Jonas Morgan. This was long known as the Southwell forge and stood on the west side of the stream. At the Brainard's settlement stood the Brain- ard forge and some distance below this was a forge built and operated by Joshua Daniels, father of Andrew J. Daniels of Wsstport.
A man named Rich built a forge at what is now New Russia in 1802. H. A. Putnam afterw ards built a new forge at New Russia. Basil Bishop built his famous cold blast forge at Split Rock in 1825 and the Valley Forge was erected in 1846.
A forge was erected in the Miller settlement about 1830.
The Eddy forge and the forge operated by Deacon Levi Brown on the Little Boquet between the Rice grist-mill and
473
HISTORY OF ELIZABETHTOWN
the site of the old twin bridges were both in operation along in the early 30s.
Jonathan Steele is also said to have had a forge in this town in pioneer days but where it was located I am unable to state. However, when one stops to speak of the number of forges once in operation here it seems to a member of the younger generation like a romantic story, as the last forge fire went out at New Russia over 20 years ago. Indeed, the passing away of the old forges, saw-mills, etc., not to speak of the mis- sing members of the human family, makes us all / think with mingled feelings of pleasure and sadness of the "good old times." How many changes time has wrought and how many of us feel like saying :
"And my heart still bends To my old, old friends,
To the dear old friends of yore And I think with a sigh
Of the days gone by And of friends who shall greet me no more."
Errata and Addenda.
The author begs pardon of the public for several typograph- ical errors that have "slipped through" in spite of him.
It is about 100 miles from Esopus to Saratoga instead of 50 miles, as implied on page 11.
Jane Ann Kellogg, wife of Wm. Codman, died at St. Charles, Minn., instead of Winona, Minn., as stated on page 114.
In listing Elizabethtown's soldiers at the Battle of Platts- burgh the name of Lt. Samuel Webster Felt, a pioneer of the Wadhams Mills section, was omitted.
Judge Francis. A. Smith informs me that, while he was made a Mason in 1861, he was not a member of Sisco Lodge, as is stated on page 406.
Exception may be taken to listing Miss Shattuck and Mrs.
474
HISTORY OF ELIZABETHTOWN
Blake, one and the same person, as two teachers on page 426. The fact is Mrs. Blake appeared before her pupils as Miss Shattuck and was so addressed by all for several weeks, al- though she had been married some time. Her husband was in college where there was a regulation against marrying dur- ing the course, hence the secrecy.
Milo C. Perry served as District Attorney of Essex County from Jan. 1, 1898, to Jan. 1, 1904, not including the year 1904.
The Bullard block, so-called, in Elizabethtown village, was destroyed by fire early on the morning of Jan. 24, 1895. The block built by Jacob H. Deming took the place of the one de- stroyed by fire, extending a little further west but not quite as far east as the old building.
Squier Lee died at the home of his son, Squier John Lee, Bristol, Ind., May 12, 1905, since the printing of this book commenced.
Daniel Cady Jackson died at his Delta, Col., home July 20, 1905, in the 75th year of his age.
Besides the cemeteries already mentioned in this book there is a cemetery in the old Miller settlement on the road to Keene, known as the Miller cemetery, and also an old cemetery on Simonds Hill, the latter being in a neglected condition. In the old cemetery on Simonds Hill some of Elizabethtown's bravest and best-a number of the old Simonds family-were buried and it seems too bad that that once beautiful "God's acre" should grow up into a forest again. Cannot something be done by those who survive the pale nations of the dead to preserve the sacredness of the spot where so many of our pio- neers were committed to the earth "dust to dust, ashes to ashes ?"
