Town of Hanover, M.Ass ~ A COPY OF THE ~ Records of Births, Marriages and Deaths AND OF Intentions of Marriage OF THE Town of Hanover, M.ass. As Recorded by the Several Town Clerks for the Said Town of Hanover. Prepared Under the Direction of Jedediah Dwelley, rlorton V. Bonney, Eben C. Waterman, rtelvin S. Nash and L. Vernon Briggs, a Committee Appointed by Said Town for that Purpose. ROCKLANO. PRESS OF THE ROCKLAND STANbAIW. 1898. INTRODUCTION. To the inhabitants of Hanover, and to others interested in her history, this brief explanatory introduction is sub­ mitted. At the annual meeting in March, 1895, the following vote was passed: " Voted that a Committee of three be appoint­ ed by the Chairman of this Meeting to examine the Town Records and make arrangements to have them copied, if they think it advisable to do so," and Eben C. Waterman, Jede­ diah Dwelley and Melvin S. Nash were appointed as the Committee. At the annual meeting in 1896 this Committee reported in part as follows: "There are in the Town Clerk's office thirty-five record books of which five or six were written in the first century of the Town's history, while the rest have been written in the last seventy years. The total number of pages in these Record Books is 10,rr3, and the total number of pages on which records have been made is 6,j42. It is doubtful if these Records can be copied at an expense of less than $2,060.34, and it does not seem to your Committee wise to expend this amount of money, as they believe that for $500 all necessary work can be done, and the Records placed in as good condition as can reasonably be expected. As stated, there are thirty-five books containing Records more or less important. These books can easily be reduced to twenty in number, by separating and re-binding, and in this way Records be arranged under appropriate head­ ings, the new books made in uniform binding, showing on the backs thereof to what subjects they relate, and what years they embrace. If this re-binding is done, and if the Births, Marriages and Deaths are copied carefully into new books the necessities of the case will b<:: fully met." It was voted by the town to " accept the Report and to appropriate five iv INTRODUCTION. hundred dollars for the work," and a new Committee con­ sisting of Jedediah Dwelley, Morton V. Bonney, Eben C. Waterman, l\Ielvin S. Nash and L. Vernon Briggs was chosen to carry on the work. The first meeting of this new Committee was held March 12th, 1896, and L. Vernon Briggs was chosen Secretary. Hon. Robert T. Swan, Record Com­ missioner of Massachusetts, was present by invitation of the Chairman. It was voted at this meeting that the Births, Marriages and Deaths from 1727 to 1857, be copied, and a proper index thereof be prepared. At a later meeting it was voted to separate the different books of Records and have them re-bound, the different subjects being separately and chronologically arranged, and this was done. The Records which were previously embraced in thirty-five volumes were, under the new arrangement and the new bindings reduced to twenty-two volumes. At a still later meetbg of this Com­ mittee it was voted that the volume containing the Records of the early Town Meetings be repaired with silk and re-bound by Mr. F. ,v. R. Emery, of Taunton, Mass., an expert in such work. It was also voted to request the Selectmen to introduce an Article in the next Town Meeting \Yarrant, ''To see if the Town will print five or six hundred copies of the Records of Births, Marriages and Deaths." This Committee made a Report at the Annual Town Meeting in 1897, wliich report was accepted, and they were then instructed, by vote of the town, to print and bind the Record of Births,­ Marriages and Deaths from 1727 to 1857. This book is evidence that the work has been done. The Com­ mittee found the Records of the Town in bad condition, some of them very nearly illegible. They have given their best efforts to rescue and preserve that which to many is of price­ less value. There were two methods open to the Committee in the performance of the work-one was to submit this whole matter of copying, examining and printing to experts (this would have had the advantage of precision). Another was to try and do it more economically by persons with a local knowledge, but unused to this kind of work. The latter course was adopted. It had its advantages. This I!sTRODUCTIO!s. Book, so far it relate:: to Births, Marriages and Deaths is in­ tended as an exact copy of the Records, nothing having been ommitted, nothing added, and no attempt made to arrange chronologically. To make a true copy, and at the same time an exact chronological arrangement, was impossible. Per­ sons familiar with the history of the town, in pemsing this book ·will note many errors in names and dates. Some of these mistakes are those of the copyist; the larger number, however, are those of the Town Clerks who made the record. The mistakes of the copyists and those of the printer, so far as discovered at this writing, have been noted under the head of " Errata." The following explanation may be helpful:- Pages 1 to 109 inclusive, contain a copy of the Record of Births, although there will be found in these pages the records of a few deaths and marriages. Pages III to 191 inclusive, contain a copy of the Record of Marriages. Pages 192 to 247 inclusive, contain a copy of the Record of Deaths, and pages 249 to 279 gives a list of the persons whose Intention of Marriage is recorded-where the marriage of such persons is not recorded. The following statement may also be of assistance :- The original books in the Town Clerk's office, from which records contained in this book were copied, are five in number. The two oldest of these books are red covered ones, the larger of the two being marked '' Records of Town of Hanover, 1 j2'"; to 1799 ; '' the smaller one being marked "Town of Hanover, 1730 to 1837." The other three books are in more recent binding-one of them is a large brown book, and is marked "Births, Marriages and Deaths, Vol. 2, Hanover ; ' ' another is a large brown book, marked '' Births, Marriages and Deaths, Vol. 3, Hanover, 1857 to 1896," including ancient records copied in 1857, and the other book is a smaller brown book, marked " Intentions of Marriage, Vol. 1, Hanover, 1815 to 1896." The Intentions of Marriage will be found in the last named book and in the small red book. Of the Births, pages I to 15 inclusive, and the first seven vi INTRODUCTION. births on page 16 are in the LARGE RED BOOK. The last twelve births on page 16 and pages 17 to 50 inclusive, and the 1irst sixteen births on page 51 are in the SMALL RED BOOK. The last eleven births on page 51 and pages 52 to Iog inclusive, are in the LARGE BROWN BOOK, marked "Births, Marriages and Deaths, Vol. 2, Hanover." Of the marriages-pages III to II2 inclusive, are in LARGE RED BOOK. Pages II3 to 121 inclusive, are in the LARGE BROWN BOOK, marked '' Births, Marriages and Deaths, Vol. 3, Hanover, 1857 to 1896." Pages 122 to 137 inclnsive, and the first ten marriages on page 138 are in the SMALL RED BOOK. The last four marriages on page 138 and Pages 139 to 191 inclusive, are in the LARGE BRO'\l,"N BOOK, marked "Births, Marriages and Deaths, Vol. 2, Hanover." Of the Deaths-page 192 is in the LARGE R:ED BOOK. Pages 193 to 202 inclusive, and the first thirteen Deaths on page 203 are in the SMALL RED BOOK. The last seven Deaths on page 203 and pages 204 to 247 inclusive, are in the LARGF; BROWN BOOK, marked "Births, Marriages and Deaths, Vol. 2, Hanover." JEDEDIAH DWELLEY. MORTON V. BONNEY. EBEN C.

  • A STORY of the WASHINGTON COUNTY UNORGANIZED TERRITORIES Prepared by John Dudley for Washington County Council of Governments March 2017
    A STORY OF THE WASHINGTON COUNTY UNORGANIZED TERRITORIES Prepared by John Dudley for Washington County Council of Governments March 2017 The story of the past of any place or people is a history, but this story is so brief and incomplete, I gave the title of “A Story”. Another person could have written quite a different story based on other facts. This story is based on facts collected from various sources and arranged in three ways. Scattered through one will find pictures, mostly old and mostly found in the Alexander- Crawford Historical Society files or with my families’ files. Following this introduction is a series on pictures taken by my great-grandfather, John McAdam Murchie. Next we have a text describing the past by subject. Those subjects are listed at the beginning of that section. The third section is a story told by place. The story of each of the places (32 townships, 3 plantations and a couple of organized towns) is told briefly, but separately. These stories are mostly in phrases and in chronological order. The listed landowners are very incomplete and meant only to give names to the larger picture of ownership from 1783. Maps supplement the stories. This paper is a work in progress and likely never will be complete. I have learned much through the research and writing of this story. I know that some errors must have found their way onto these pages and they are my errors. I know that this story is very incomplete. I hope correction and additions will be made. This is not my story, it is our story and I have made my words available now so they may be used in the Prospective Planning process.

  • Record of the Descendants of William Sumner, of Dorchester, Mass., 1636
    This is a reproduction of a library book that was digitized by Google as part of an ongoing effort to preserve the information in books and make it universally accessible. http://books.google.com RECORD OK THK DESCENDANTS OF WILLIAM SUMNER, OF DORCHESTER, MASS., 1636. BY WILLIAM SUMNER APPLETON. BOSTON: DAVID CI, APP Sc SON, PRINTERS. 1 8 7 9. (RECAP) INTRODUCTION. In i854 was printed, for Gen. William H. Sumner of Roxbury, a "Memoir of Increase Sumner, Governor of Massachusetts," to which was added a " Genealogy of the Sumner Family, by William B. Trask." Some additions were printed in the N. E. Historical and Genealogical Register, for October, i855. Mr. Trask was entirely competent to have prepared a genealogy, which would have made this present volume unnecessary ; but Gen. Sumner was willing only to have very limited researches made, concerning principally the branches most nearly related to his own. The " Genealogy" therefore is exceedingly imperfect, and so misleading as to cause one to sup pose the family a very small one ; and it was in consequence of this mistake that the present writer undertook the work, which has grown in progress to an extent never dreamt of, or it would probably not have been begun. Once under way, however, interest has kept pace with material, and I feel no regret for the time given to the work, or the trouble which has of necessity accompanied it. The family has been a fairly prominent one, though few of its mem bers have gained any special fame. One can however be justly proud of Gov.

Descendents of the common ancestor bearing other names are noticed in connection with the families from which they originated. Families are usually numbered consecutively.

In- deed, the whole town is noted for its intelligence and thrift. The surface of tho land is generally level, except a few small elevations.
