Seek aid with links to Claremont,SullivanCo.,NH. I have cabinet photos taken in Claremont and want to determine of whom they were taken. Photographers were FISHER and KENYON. Of my many lines (most of whom were Quaker), none are known to have been of NH; however, these photos likely are of SHAW or BROWNLOW family members (i.e., Claremont had mill: these were mill owners). I am an experienced and successful amateur researcher: suggestions will be _greatly_ appreciated and researched. Thank you for your time and effort -- sincerely!

HALE
Am looking for David Hale's parents. I recently obtained ino on who his parents might be, need help in verifying this information. The line goes as follows: William HALE b 1722, wife unknown. William came to the US from Surrey, England on a cattle boat, landing at Newport, NH, April 16, 1742, the name of the boat was the Justitia. I am told he had many children, one of whom was Silas HALE b 5-28-1760, d 03-15-1835, m Sarah Parsons. they lived in NH. Silas was a farmer and carpenter. Silas and Sarah apparently had John HALE b 1780 d 1822, m Sarah Josepha Severance Hale. This is where it gets muddy for me. I can locate a John Hale who married Sarah (Hills) Severance in NH, he fought in the Revolutionary war. I do not know who his sons are except that I am told that David is his son. David later moved to Maryland on his own. I just found out that David HALE was b 1815 in Newport, NH. David married Elizabeth A. Miller, daughter of Christoper Miller and Elizabeth Meyer. According to the history that I have, David was one of six brothers, two brothers went to Illinois and Ohio, the other three moved to N.C, with David settling in Maryland. I know that there was a David Hale who married the famous Sarah Josepha Buell but have found that his descendants are not part of our line. Any information you can give me on William, Silas, John or David would be appreciated. If there is a cost involved for this research, please let me know in advance. Thank you, Kathy Hale Cage

I'd like to exchange information with anyone doing HEATH research, specifically on John HEATH. I believe the line for "my" John Heath, who m. Rachel Kentfield on January 31, 1785 in Bridgewater, Grafton Co., NH, and who removed to Brownville, Maine, has become tangled with that of a John Heath b. Feb. 25, 1761 in Plaistow, who, I'm told, settled in Springfield, Sullivan Co. and married Dolly Davis. I believe these two Johns were cousins. Help appreciated! Kendall Mellem

PHILLIPS
PHILLIPS, EBENEZER was soldier sent with a military unit made up of men from Marlborough and Southborough Massachusetts to aid Captain Stevens against the Abnacki Indian raids at Fort Number Four (Charlestown) in the summer of 1746. Book by Saunders states that on August 3, 1746 ---Ebenezer Phillips was killed during Abnacki Indian Raid, dragged into the fort by his friends and was interred there. I am trying to prove this statement with other sources. Does anyone have any information about the soldiers from Massachusetts who went to help defend Fort Number Four in 1746. How do I find those Military records that might show muster rolls with names? Are there any other history books or historical records that might document the events of the summer of 1746? Where else do I look? Please contact: Brenda Susol

YORK
Greetings, My great-grandfather was Williard Kimpton York, born in Croyden, Sullivan Co, NH on May 28, 1865. My family knows very little about him until he moved to Michigan. We don't know his parent's names or if he had any siblings. Since he was married in Michigan and died in Michigan, I suppose a good start would be a birth record from NH, or an 1870's NH Census lookup, right? Thanks in advance for your time and your help. Best wishes, -Nicole Harsch
