BOSTON Alfred Mddge & Son, Printers, 24 Franklin Street. A^Jt.T mo i. Cheeked dCLIBP. 4 OR, LENOX AND EN FOUNDATIONS. L To the Men of Kittery who gave their lives on land and sea, in battle or in prison, from 1775 to 1783, that this country might be free, and that their example may speak to com- ing generations, this volume is respectfully inscribed. By Lieut. OLIVER P. REMICK, Engineer Corps, U. S. Revenue Cutter Service. Member of the Maine Historical Society and the Maine Genealogical Society. PREFACE. Kittery, at the commencement of the war for Independence, was composed of the present towns of Kittery and Eliot, and this record takes in the soldiers and sailors of both towns ; but Eliot's soldiers are not mentioned as such in their individual records, but one can tell by the parish or militia company residence of the man, in which town as now constituted he lived ; whenever the word "town" occurs in the following pages, it refers to and means the old town of Kittery as it was in 1775. The town at that time was divided into three parishes, viz., first, or lower ; second, or upper ; and third, or middle. The first parish was that part of the town south of a line, commencing at Ports- mouth Ferry, near the old Rice House, and running north fifty-four degrees east, to the town of York.

LEAMON T he Search for Security Maine after Penobscot The Penobscot campaign of 1779 made little impact on the military outcome of the American Revolution. The focus of military action was shifting to the southern states when the British seized Bagaduce (Castine) at the mouth of the Penobscot River and defeated the expedition dispatched by Massachusetts to drive them out.1 For people in the District of Maine, however, the Penobscot defeat represented a calamity of the first order. During the rest of the war, they had to contend with a garrison of regular British troops in their midst. To Bagaduce flocked loyalists who, with a vigor sharpened by vengeance, joined the regulars in plundering the coast. Active loyalist participation injected a new note of personal vindictiveness in what now became a civil war. Amid internal dissension and a growing sense of isolation and despair, unified defense collapsed throughout the District.

As result among Harvard alumni, Union military losses were 10% compared with a 21% casualty rate for the Confederate Army. The battle of Gettysburg (PA) had the highest amount of Harvard alumni serving in the Union Army who were killed in action (i.e. 11), in addition 3 Harvard alumni Confederates also died in this battle. Secondly, seven Crimson warriors made the supreme sacrifice for the Union at Antietam (MD) with 5 more were killed in the battles of Cedar Mountain (VA) and Fredericksburg (VA). As expected, most of the Harvard alumni who died in the service of the Union were born and raised in the Northeastern states (e.g. 74% from Massachusetts). However, 9 Harvard alumni Union casualties were from the Mid West including one from the border state of Missouri. None of these Harvard men were from southern states. The below men who made the supreme sacrifice for their country to preserve the union which also resulted in the abolition of slavery.

D AT THE EAGLE STEAM JOB PRlNTrNG ROOMS, 1883. PREFACE. It is not without misgivings that this volume is handed to my kinsmen and namesakes, as a History of'' Two Hundred and Fifty Years of the \Vadsworth Family in America." The subject covers a great deal, and could be extended · ad infinitum. To collect, edit and publish, what really should find a place in the family history, would be the work of at least twenty years, and I find that the family historians of many well known names have been busy at least that time, and still the task is not completed. But the author of this history cannot delay twenty years, ten years, or even five years. The demand for the work will not admit of it. Letters have been received, almost daily, with the question, " How soon will the history be completed?" Not a few of our people who are deeply interested in this work, have reached, or passed, the ripe age of three score years anrl ten, and for their benefit, if for no other reason the promised work should be forthcoming.

VICKERY MONTPELIER: THE HOME OF GENERAL HENRY KNOX Maine coastal towns are noted for their beautiful houses, many of which were built during the late eighteenth or the first quarter of the nineteenth century, either by West Indies mer­ chants or sea captains. At hand were crews of skillful ship­ wrights extremely knowledgeable in carpentry as well as the intricacies of wood carving. From Kennebunkport to Calais many elegant residences survive to testify to their handiwork. On the waterfront of Thomaston is one such imposing mansion, a replica, alas, of General Henry Knox’s Montpelier. During Knox’s lifetime the home was regarded as one of the finest private residences in New England. After Knox's death Montpelier was allowed to deteriorate. Even as early as 1825 the original house had fallen into a state of neglect, and in 1871 it was demolished.
