The "old red house," frontispiece of the March (1897) number, was built by John Abbott, and not by Timothy Abbott as stated on page 37. John's son John3 added to it. This "old red house' near the South church. The garrison house of Timothy Abbott was on the top of the hill near the present residence of his descendants, and it was taken down many years ago, probably in the third generation. The sight was across the street from the present residence of S. H. Bailey, whose wife is a lineal descendant and heir to the estate. There is some reason to believe that a garrison house with additions is still standing at the foot of the hill on an estate bought by Philemon Chandler in the third generation, and if not one of the garrisons of the Ballard family may turn out to be the first house built by Timothy Abbott, who moved up the hill to the estate purchased from his brother William's heirs before their removal to Connecticut.

Hannah Abbott3 (No. 42, page 36), who married Abiel Holt, is said to have died in Windham Feb. 11, 1751; and he married, secondly, the next year, Sara Downer, who died in Wellington, Conn., in 1784.

They engaged in the manufacture of woolens very early in history of such business in America, and in Dexter founded the firm now known as Amos Abbott & Co., famed for honest work of high grade. Their plant is probably the oldest mill in this country remaining in the same family for successive generations.

Capt. Abel Abbott (No. 555) married first, Sarah Abbott; and, second, Mary Jones. Jeremiah (No. 557) married Lucy Safford. Amos (No. 559) married Mehitable Safford. Joshua (No. 561) married, first, Lydia Abbott ; and, second, Mary Baker. The first wives of Abel, Paschal and Joshua were sisters, and first cousins of their husbands.

Caleb Abbots (No. 427, page 100) married Debora, daughter of Nathan Ames of Groton, and widow of Henry Gray Baker of Andover. Their daughter Clarissa married Rev.
