In 1857 a saw-mill was erected just below the first mill by Abel Case. This was re- modeled and enlarged, and became a first- class mill, having circular and upright saws, a planer, matcher, and lath-saws. Its capacity in times of fair water is 10,000 feet per day.

The Gardner brothers built a mill on the site of an old wood-turning establishment, a short distance up the creek, about 1850. For many years it was known as the Tucker mill. In the neighborhood of this, Henry Prouty, in 1863, erected a very good saw-mill, which was supplied with a shingle-machine, and turned off a large amount of work.

The Worth Centre mill was built by E. Cornell, about 1862, and is the most exten- sive in the town. Vast quantities of lumber are manufactured annually, and nearly every grade can be supplied. Employment is given to a dozen or more hands, and the establishment was regarded as first-elass for this region.

Other mills had been built on the Abijah creek, by William Houghtailing and J. M. Ackley. The former, while the property of Brown & Haddock, was destroyed by fire. The latter has been out of use for many years.

A cheese-factory was built at Worthville, in 1867, by a stock company, at a cost of $4,000. The company consisted of Leonard Bullock, Levi Wilcox, C. C. Moore, B. B. Brown, and J. H. Rising. The factory was operated by them a year, then sold to Abel Bickford. Lucius Manigold started a fac- tory in the western part of the town in 1870.

SCHOOLS .- About 1807 the first district school in Worth was taught in Asaph Case's barn, by a Mrs. Nobles. Her husband died in the town, and she moved to the west. She had 10 or 12 pupils from the Case, Russell, and other families. In the winter of 1808 Ruel Canfield taught a school in a part of Timothy Greenly's house, in Rodman, near the "Corners." Miss Betsey Bugbee taught a school in a log house, a few years later, in what is now known as district No. 2. She was carried to and from her duties by an ox- team hitehed to a sled. About this time a log house for school purposes was erected at the "Corners." This was supplanted by other small log and frame houses, where A. S. Gillet taught for a number of years.

In 1845 a frame school-house was built. There are eight districts in the town, pro- vided with respectable buildings. The one at Worth Centre is especially neat.

CEMETERIES .- There are several cemeteries in Worth, all controlled by the town board. One of the oldest is on lot No. 9. Elisha Sweet was one of the first interred in the town. The old cemetery having poor drain- age, a more favorable spot was selected on

lot No. 8. This has been well kept, and con- tains some fine tablets and head-stones.

CIVIL ORGANIZATION .- At a special elec- tion held at the house of Benjamin Gates, in Lorraine, February 6, 1810, the division of Worth from Lorraine was unanimously voted, but the War of 1812 prevented the immediate carrying out of this vote. No further action was taken until 1848. In that year the division was ordered by the Legisla- ture, with a provision that the first meeting be held at the school-house at Wilcox's Cor- ners, on May 2; that the town officers of Lor- raine residing within the limits of Worth were to exercise the functions of their re- spective offices until the next ensuing elec- tion; and that Matthew Fox, Jonathan M. Ackley, and Albert S. Gillet be a board of election, with the power of justices of the peace. The election resulted in the choice of the following officers: Supervisor, A. S. Gillet ; Town Clerk, Daniel Wilcox ; Justices of the Peace, A. S. Gillet, Riley W. Green, Jonathan M. Ackley ; Assessors, George W. Gillet, Albert Nichols; Coms. of Highways, Leonard Bullock, Levi Smith, William Bell : Constables, Levi Wilcox, Ozias E. Elmer, Newman A. Hawley ; Overseers of the Poor, Boomer K. Jenks, Sterling Wilcox ; Col- lector, Matthew Fox ; Supt. Com. Schools, Robert R. Bell.

Since 1848 the supervisors have been : 1849, A. S. Gillet ; 1850, Riley W. Green ; 1851, Jonathan M. Ackley ; 1852, Riley W. Green; 1853-4, Jonathan M. Ackley. For continuation of this list from 1854 to 1894, see pp. 337-344.

DIAMOND is a post-office, established about four years since, about 11 miles from Manns- ville, in the town of Worth. Mrs. Folsom is the post-mistress. There is a small settle- ment and one church (Episcopal) at that place.

WORTH CENTRE .- This is a hamlet of a dozen buildings, near the centre of the town, on the Abijah creek. The first settlement here was made about 1850, by E. Cornell. The country was then in a primitive con- dition, and Mr. Cornell's house was as rude as that of the first settler 50 years before. But roads were built to the Centre and farms opened until quite a neighborhood was gathered; and when the saw-mill was erected its future was assured. A small store was opened at this point about 1874, by E. Cor- nell, and a postoffice established, with daily mails from Adams, via Worthville.

WORTHVILLE. - This village, formerly known as Wilcox Corners, is located on both banks of South Sandy creek, and has a population of about 100. The village is one mile south of Rodman, two southeast of Pinckney, in Lewis county, and was the centre of the early settlements, Joseph Wil- cox having made the beginning at this place. The situation is pleasant, and it was once the largest trading point in the town.

A store was opened here in 1849, by Lor- enzo P. Gillet, who erected a large two-story

frame house on the southeast corner for this purpose. A portion of the house was used for a tavern. He was succeeded, in 1858, by A. S. Gillet, who conducted both places until 1866 The store was then closed, and the building used for a tavern only, by Horace Struter, Ormsby Moon, Alanson Pettengill, Levi Calvin, landlords, in the order named. In 1858 an opposition tavern was started on the opposite corner, by Orlin A. Chase. A large hostelry was erected. Duane Earl and Leonard Parker were also among the hosts. The building was later occupied as a residence.

Another store-house was erected in 1865, down the street, where Henry L. Porter opened a stock of goods. The place passed into the hands of George D. Macomber.

Blacksmith shops were conducted at an early day, and at different periods, by Can- field, Elihu Gillet and Egelbert West, all prior to 1840. Richard Lyon followed, and built a shop east of the village. Albert Har- rington worked here a number of years. Wagon-shops were conducted by David H. Atkins and L. H. Spaulbury, established in 1860 and 1875 respectively.

The postoffice was established in 1848, with L. P. Gillet as postmaster. The mail route was from Adams, via Lorraine, to Copenhagen, in Lewis county. Richard Lyon was the carrier, going on horseback once a week. A subscription on the part of the citizens of Worthville secured a semi- weekly mail. In 1865 a tri-weekly mail was supplied. At present there is a daily service from Adams to Worth Centre, via Worth- ville.

CHURCHES.

THE WORTHVILLE UNION CHURCH WAS for a long time the only church edifice in the town. It was erected by a committee in 1875, costing $3,000, and would seat 250 per- sons. It has a board of seven trustees, ap-

pointed by those who subscribed in building the edifice. It was open to all denominations irrespective of creed. For several years a Sunday school has been and is now conducted in this church.

THE METHODIST CHURCH .- The Metho- dists were among the first to organize a class, and finally a society in Worth. The struggle was at first severe, but at last they built a church in 1875, and the membership bas in- creased to 75. The present pastor is Rev. G. S. Carley. In the Sabbath school are 110 scholars, under the charge of Mr. D. B. Scott; the superintendent.

THE INDEPENDENT ORDER OF GOOD TEMPLARS has an organization at Worth, with 65 members, and is in a flourishing con- dition. There is also an organization of Juvenile Templars, with 40 members.

TUE G. A. R. Post at Worth has about 20 members. S. B. Kellogg is commander.

FAMILY SKETCHES.

LEVI WILCOX .- In the year 1805, while yet Jefferson county was an almost un- broken wilderness, Joseph Wilcox, a native of Connecticut, emigrated to the present town of Worth. At that time there was but one other family in the town. He purchased 150 acres of wild land, built a house, and moved into it with his family, which at that time consisted of his wife and six children. This old pioneer couple lived to advanced ages-the wife dying at the age of 76, and the father at the age of 88.

STERLING WILCOX, the son who succeeded to the old home, was born in 1791, and lived in Worth from 1805, on the same spot. He was married in 1818 to Miss Sarah Smith, of Lorraine, by whom he. became the father of six children : Lydia, Philura, Levi, Caroline, Gilbert and Charles. Mrs. Sarah Wilcox, the mother, died March 22, 1867, aged 67 years.

LEVI WILCOX was horn November 26, 1825, and was united in marriage with Miss Mary Fox, of the same town, in 1847. Two children have been born to them, Emma G. and Gilbert H. Thus could be seen three generations of this pioneer old family, living for years together in one family, on the same spot selected by the great- grandfather of the younger members of the family. The farm consists of 220 acres, and is one of the finest in the county. Mr. Levi Wilcox erected a very fine and commodious house near the old home, which adds much to the beauty and

comforts of this old landmark of Jefferson county.

LEONARD BULLOCK .- One of the very earliest settlers of the town of Worth was Leonard Bullock. He came originally from the State of Rhode Island, to Oneida county, N. Y., and to the present town of Worth in 1802. He here located a tract of land, which has since been the home of himself and his descendants. He built a log shanty and commenced clearing up his land. He was married to Miss Bethsheba Hancock, and at the time of his settlement in Worth was the father of two children. The whole number of children reared by this worthy couple was 12-four sons and eight daughters, who all grew up to manhood and womanhood except one son, who died in infancy. Mr.' Bullock lived to the age of 55, dying in 1828.

LEONARD, next to the youngest of these 12 children, was born January 3, 1817. He was reared a farmer, and after his majority bought out the other heirs, and thus became possessed of the old home farm, where he was born. At the age of 20 he was united in marriage with Miss Martha Gillet, of Worth, the daughter of Elihu Gillet, another old settler of Worth. To them were born three children : Emily L., Levi S. and Leonard C. The farm owned by Mr. Bullock consisted of 320 acres of the finest farming lands in the town.

ALEXANDER MONTGOMERY.

Among the many industrious men who have made Watertown's mechanical reputa- tion so complete and satisfactory, we may mention Mr. Alex. Montgomery, who came to Watertown 26 years ago from the city of New York- his ancestors being both Irish and Scotch. For 13 years he was in the employ of George W. Wiggins, in his merchant tailor- ing establishment. He has for years been in business for himself, and now holds forth at 8} Court street, in his own building. He owns what was once the old Peck & Welch dry goods store, where his store is located. He is a successful man, and has worked his way up to the respect of the community by long years of patient industry. In addition to his store building he is the owner of two good dwelling houses, after having reared a family of seven children. Such men are of that pro- gressive class who raise higher year by year

In bringing this History to a close, the author desires, to express the same sentiment expressed on the introductory pages-i. e., his consciousness of the the imperfections of the work, and his regret that he has not been able to devote more time to the subject. Instead of 480 pages, as promised, the reader will find nearly 850. So large a work, dealing with so many subjects, and confronted con - tinually with names and dates, renders errors almost insurmountable. While the author is conscious that no book can be entirely per- fect, he is yet constrained to say that his effort to avoid errors has been earnest and persistent. Such as it is, he submits the work to the public, whose patience is at times wonderful, and craves the same charity that is usually extended to works much less ex- acting than that of the preparation of history.
