NOT TO BE REMOVED FROM TH!S LtBRARY Davis, DiHingham, Drtimmnd, Can^bcii. 0 ME REF 929 DU Dunning, Thurtow R., B .H .B A R T O L LIBRARY COLONEL THURLOW REED DUNNING, SR. Thurlow Reed Dunning was born in Freeport, Maine on September 21, 1897, the second youngest of the seven children of Benjamin F. and Adriann (Reed) Dunning. Benjamin Franklin Dunning, "Frank" to fa m ily and frien d s a lik e, was a mason by trade. He was the head mason during the construction of Casco Castle. The castle burned in 1914 but is survived by the Cartlu tower which has become an area landmark. Thurlow spent his early years in Freeport and moved w;th his family to Winchester, Massachusetts when he was 10 years old. The family was deeply rooted in Freeport and eventually he returned here as did many members of his family. He married Gertrude Fransen who died shortly after the b:rt-. of their son, Robert. On September 16, 1922 he married Eth* 1 Sumner Benson in Somerville, Massachusetts. They had five children, Jesse, Mary Jane, Carol, Thurlow Jr. and Alice. He served with distinction in the United States Army in World War I (26th "Yankee" Division) and World War II (211th F. A. B a tta lion ) and was awarded fiv e b a ttle stars fo r his service in World War I and the Bronze Star for meritorious service in World War II. Between World War I and World War II he served continuously with the Massachusetts National Guard. A fte r h is service in World War II he accepted employment which brought him back to Maine and made it p ossib le fo r him to settle again in Freeport. His life long interest in the history of this country, of communities and of people seemed to lead naturally to an avid interest in Genealogy. Upon his return to Freeport he began gathering information on the early families of Freeport inclucir. : that of the Dunning family. When he retired he devoted many hours to researching the genealogies of these families. Family, including grandchildren were enlisted to heir or. many occasions. He was instrumental in reactivating the Free: : r Historical Society which had been dormant for many years. He was a firm, q u ie t , reserved and proud man who, through his example, earned the love and respect of his family and friends. He always let us know he was proud of us. he cert t:: . are proud o f him. He died on July 11, 1974.

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. PUBLISHED-1952 PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATE.S OF AMERICA. ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND THANKS Family histories are never finished, and though this one was started more than forty years ago, it is still unfinished, and has many omissions, and perhaps mistakes, but may serve to inspire members of the family to send in data they may have, which will help to complete the record. Thou­ sands of letters have been written, in preparation of this history, many trips made to far away inaccessible places and cemeteries, and hundreds of interviews held with in­ terested people. Court Records have been searched, old wills read, and Bible Records unearthed which had been forgot­ ten for generations. Some letters have been answered promptly, with accurate information, while others have failed to reply or if they did reply, gave meager data. To those of you who have been gracious in your replies, and generous in sending in your family records, the Author is eternally grateful, but it is to your own descendants that you have made this contribution of time and effort, and it is a tribute we all should pay to those worthy ancestors of ours who paved the way for our liberty, our prosperity and our happiness. It would be impossible to mention all of the people who have made this history possible, but my deepest debt of gratitude is due to Eleanor Davis McSwain, and her husband, Horace L.

MAINE HISTORICAL SOCIETY PRIZE ESSAY 1977 The Smuggling Career of William King by Alan S. Taylor One of the most fascinating controversies to emerge from Maine’s role in the War of 1812 is whether William King, the leader of Maine’s Democratic-Republican party and the state’s first governor, illegally traded with the British. Throughout King’s political career, charges were hurled that many of his vessels had operated in violation of the revenue laws. These charges remained unsubstantiated rumors spread by his Federalist political opponents until 1824 when two of his estranged political proteges, Benjamin Ames and Joseph F. Wingate, Jr., anonymously published The Disclosure No. 1: Documents Relating to Violations and Evasions of the Laws During the Commercial Restrictions and Late War With Great Britain, etc., a collection of letters and depositions intended to prove that King and his good friend, Mark Langdon Hill, were indeed guilty of smuggling.
