which have numerous descendants. Susannah married
Timothy Wakefield, whose homestead still stands on
Wakefield Street; Hannah married James Weston who

standing on Haverhill Street; Anna married Loea

standing at the corner of Forest Street, not far
from the site of the Slab City Mill, Loea and Anna

painstaking historian, Loea Parker Howard, who has
done much to encouage the authors of this series of
homestead sketches.
