PREFACE.

1 have had three principal objects in view in the preparation of

ist. To make a complete and reliable genealogical record of Elbha4 Piper and his descendants, with portions of other related families. To effect this object, much correspondence has been held, and many early records searched, at considerable expense. In the genealogies of our early ancestors, some dates could not be found, as the family records have been lost or have not been made, and when stones have been erected to their memories, only the date of their death and their age in years have generally been inscribed upon them, and therefore the exact time of their birth could not be ascertained, although it is as essential as the date of their death. This fact suggests the importance of giving the exact date of the birth and of the death. The age in years should also be stated, to save the person who reads the inscription the trouble of calculating it mentally. The surname of the wife before marriage, as well as the Christian

name, should also be given, since it is often as important, in tra- cing families, to know the name of the wife as that of the husband.

1 have also had in view the importance of making a record which would be likely to be preserved. When genealogical records are made of individual families only, and recorded on a single sheet or in a single book, they are frequently lost, or destroyed by fire or other

accident, in a few years, rendering it very difficult, and often im-

if they have been collected and print- possible to replace them ; but

ed in a book, and many copies distributed among various persons,

or deposited in libraries, it is not probable that they would all be lost for many )ears—perhaps tor centuries. 2d. To gi»e a history of the family. It is a moral and religious duty which we owe to our friends to become acquainted *vith those living, and to preserve in our memories the names of those who

have departed, that they may not be forgotten, or be lost to future

generations by long lapse of time. With this view I have collected

all the history of the family which I have been able to obtain,

and given it principally in the remarks which 1 have made concern-

ing the persons whose genealogies I have recorded. I cannot trace the family, with certainty, beyond Nathaniel 1 Piper, our Eng- lish ancestor in this country, whose genealogy and history are given

on page 11. 1 have thought, however, that it might be interesting,

and perhaps throw some light on our ancestral origin, if I should give some facts relating to the Pipers in England. The name of

Piper is quite common in that country, burke, in his " General Arm- ory of England, Scotland. Ireland ana Wales," mentions, in the

last edition (1878). seven families of that name, residing in. different counties, which have been permitted, by the Sovereign of Great Britain, to bear a coat of arms. The family with which we are especially interested resides in Devonshire, from which county Na-

thaniel 1 Piper emigrated to this country. It is called the Culliton

House, or family, from the town of Culliton in which the estate is located, being a few miles east of Exeter. The estate was purchased of Sir John De la Pole, baronet of Shute, by John Piper, Esq.

The family traces its lineage from Magnus Piper, of Neustadt, in llolstein, formerly a part of Saxony, whose ancestors were from

Eubeck. The coat of arms borne by the C illii.011 family is describ-

ed by Parke as follows : " Quarterly, embattled gold and ermine, over all an eagle displayed sable, quartering azure, two chevrons gold." The motto is, Feroci fortior, or, More brave than fierce:. John Piper, Esq., was born in 1740, and was a Captain in the 6th Regiment of Infantry. He was destined at an early age for the military profession, and sent to Berlin where he completed a scientific and military course of study. In 1757 he entered the army, and fought in the battle of Minden in Prussia, where he was wounded through both legs. He afterward served in the West Indies, participating in the capture of Martinique. He also served in America, to which he came in the 25th Regiment, in 1769, and was appointed to the staff. While in this country, he married Frances Ayrault, second daughter and co-heiress of Stephen Ayrault, Esq., ol Newport, Rhode Island, the only remaining representative ol a distinguished and opulent Huguenot family. He returned from this country to England with Ids wife in 1782, and retired from

The numbers on the left of the page are the serial numbers of the persons whose genealogies are given in the book ; those in Roman those in par- letters are the numbers of the children in each family ; enthesis refer hack to the same serial numbers on the left, where the genealogies of the parents are given; those following. " See their children," refer forward to the same serial numbers on the left, small elevated where the genealogies of the children are given ; the figure at the right of the Christian name denotes the generation of the person from his English ancestor, Nathaniel 1 Piper, who is the first generation of the family in this country; when nothing is .-.aid cf the death of a person, the person is now ( 18S9) living; when nothing of the marriage, the person has not been married. This ride in regard to marriage has been observed, except in a tew cases of our early ancestors, where it could not be known whether they were married or not, and in some few of the notes at the bottom ol the pages.

GENEALOGY OF ELISHA4 PIPER OF PARSONSFIELD, ME.,

FIRST GENERATION.

1. NATHANIEL 1 PIPER, ancestor ofElisha4 Piper, and so far as I have been able to ascertain, of nearly all the Pipers in this country, was born in England, probabl) about 1630. He emigrated from Dartmouth, in Devonshire, and settled in Ipswich, Mass., as a farmer. James Savage, in his Genealogical Dictionary, repre- sents him as being here in 1665. Solomon 1 Piper, author of the

4 Genealogy of the Family of Solomon Piper, says : " He drew a share and a half in Plum Island in 1665, and was an early inhabitant of Ipswich, Mass." Rev. Asa 4 Piper, of Wakefield, N. H., in his genealogical record, says: " He emigrated from England to this country dur ; ng the Revolution in the days of Charles the First," under Oliver Cromwell, which could not have been later than 1658, Wil- liam T. G Piper, in a recent search of the Ipswich records, now in the

Essex County Registry of Deeds, finds, Rook II, p. 251, a deed of marsh land on Jaffrey's Neck, Ipswich, hum Andrew Hodges 10 Na- thaniel 1 Piper, daieo March iS, 1662. Also, in the Suffolk County

Registry of Deeds, Book I, p. $$o, a deed from Martyn Stebens, of

Boston, Mass., to Win. Bartholomew, oi~ Ipswich, dated Dec. 15, 1653. and witnessed by Nathaniel 1 Piper, which seems to prove con- clusively that he came to this country as early as Dec. 15, 1653. He

11 married Sarah , and died in 1676, in Ipswich. His will, a copy of which is given in this book, and recorded in the Ipswich records, is dated March 7, 1675, and was proved, Sept. 26, 1676. After his decease his wife married E/ekiel Woodward, of Wenhani, Mass., a carpenter. She was living in Wenhani in 1696, and probably died there, but no record oi the time of her death can be found. Her second husband, Ezekiel Woodward, died Jan. 29. 169S, in

He removed there in the spring of 1772, and re- ma ined nearly nine years. The farm proving frosty and his prospects for supporting his family on such land being ver> discouraging, he resolved to sell, and find a home in a more favorable locality. He uuccied his course to P^rsonslicld, then called Parson^town, in the province of Maine, at that time belonging to Massachusetts. family about two years before his death, which occurred Aug. 21, 1889, at the age of 89 years.

He subsequently purchased five other lots, — lot No. 171, in the tenth range, of Alpheus Spring, of Kittery, Me., for five pounds, deed dated Nov.

In June 1779, the next year after his first purchase, he went from Wakefield to Parsonsfield, built him a log camp, covered with hem- lock bark, felled several acres of trees, and then returned to his family in Wakefield. In March of the next year, 1780, he went back to Parsonsfield. As there were no roads passable for teams at that

season of the year, he hauled his camp furniture, consisting of a bed and some cooking utensils, on a hand-sled, over Picker's Mountain, on the crust. This was a great hardship, and he was obliged to get some assistance in his passage over the mountain. Before the time arrived for burning the trees, felled the preceding season, he was employed in preparing materials for building a log-house for his family. He burned the trees in May, and planted the ground with lived in Biddeford, Me., at Winter Harbor, on the Pool Road, left hand side when going down, between two and two and a half miles from- the

in the family record, as I have given the names of the other children. She married James Remick Aug. 3c, 178S, born about 1764, in Kittery, Me.; a farmer, blacksmith, and justice of the peace. She died about Feb. 2S, 1791, perhaps a few days later, in Parsuns- neld, Me., at the birth of her second daughter, at the early age of twenty-four years. His second wife was Anna Haynes, born in 1764, in Warerborough, Me.; died April S, 1848, in Bangor, Me., where she resided with her step-daughter, Susan (Remick) Clarke. He resided in Parsonsfield on the south side of the North Road, about half way between Blazo's Corner and Limerick Village, on the farm now owned by Samuel Bartlett, being lot No. 171 and nearly opposite the residence of the late Samuel Lougee. He was

a large, portly man ; died July 31, 1822, in Parsonsfield. I have not been able to ascertain the exact time when he was born or she died, but the time given varies very little from the true dates. They were both buried in the burying-ground on the Moses Mighels farm, on the north side of the road, near where they resided.* See their

He came to the conclusion that he looked eagerly at the food on the table (it being a boiled dinner of which he u-as very fond, and he was also very hungry, having been on duty the previous night, and had no breakfast) and that Washington observed it, and his tender care for his soldiers, prompted him to wait upon him before his higher officers, who had their regular meals.

* I have copied this Company Roll from the one sent me by Cyrus Snell Barker, of Cornish, Me. It was written by Ebenezer Barker, Cleric of the company, one hundred and twenty-two years ago. Such a document may seem foreign to a work on genealogy, but I think it will be interesting" to the descendants of Ebenezer Barker, who was the father of the Barkers who first settled in Cornish, and to those of Elisha4 Piper, of

Parsoxisfield, whose first wife, Sarah Barker, was his daughter : and three of the company, Avery, Merrill, and Pottle, probably married his J sisters. It may. perhaps, be of interest also to other families whose ancestors are enrolled on it. The names are all spelled as I found them on the roll sent me. and as I suppose the soldiers wrote them when they signed the original roll.

\ Ebenezer Barker was a son of Noah Barker, of Stratham, N. II.. who

died there Jan. :J, 1749. Noah had a family of eight CHILDREN : Uuth. Ezra. Benjamin. Nathan. Ebenezer, Ephraim, John, and Noah. Ebene- zer married a daughter of Simeon Rundlet.of Stratham. She died Sept.

14, 1 791, in Stratham, where they resided, aged seventy years. His father gave him a deed, the original now (1889) in the possession of Cyrus W. Barker, of Cornish, Me., of a lot of land in Stratham, containing twenty- four acres, with a dwelling-house, barn, and orchard on the same, the deed being dated March 2f5. 1739. Three of Ebenezer's sons and two of his daughters settled in Maine, and one son and two daughters in New •Hampshire, and died in those States. He lived and died in Stratham, and four of his children besides those mentioned died there. Cyrus Snell Barker, his grandson, says: "'The first Ebenezer Barker did not

settle in Cornish : he only visited there." See his children who settled in Maine arid New Hampshire, pages 1R and 17. Most of the facts here given, some, of which were taken from the records of Stratham, were furnished me bv Ezra Barker of that town, and the remainder bv Cvrus ' Snell Barker.

Josiah, my father, settled early in Actoo, Mass., and left three sons and three daughters; another daughter died at an early age. Joseph also settled in Acton, and had a large family.
