NATHANIEL BENNETT

Mr. Nathaniel BENNETT, who died the 23d ult, at his home in this village, at the age of 83 years, was the last but one (Reuben BENNETT) of the six children of the late William and Lois (FLINT) BENNETT, of the Burnham Neighborhood. Nearly the whole of his long and useful life, was passed in Bridgton, the larger portion in this village, where he followed his life vocation of carpenter and builder. He married Miss Lorania FROST, of Norway, who died many years ago, and there survive them their two and only children, Mrs. Frank B. SIMPSON and Joshua F. BENNETT, of this place. In religious affiliations deceased was a Calvin Baptist; in moral and political life was ever a staunch anti-slavery and temperance man - in the latter field a member of various organizations, and a strict teetotaler. Indeed, to him could well be applied the term "soberly, righteously and godly," for he was a man good and true, and dies respected and lamented by all. The funeral was at his late home, the 25th, conducted by Rev. J. C. OSGOOD, and there were beautiful floral tributes. The burial was in Forest Cemetery. Mr. BENNETT died of heart disease, by which he had long been affected - his death, like his life, being calm and peaceful.

Marston, William (b. WFT Est 1592, d. 30 JUN 1643)

Note: Genealogical and Family History of the State of Maine - Page 757
Captain William Marston,
MARSTON immigrant ancestor, was of
ancient English family whose
various branches bore coats-of-arms and
achieved distinction. He is the ancestor of
all the Hampton Marstons, though another
immigrant of the name, one Robert Marston,
presumably his brother, settled also in the
town of Hampton, New Hampshire. Robert
Marston's dwelling house was between the
common and the meeting house green, on the
place at present known as the Jeremiah Marston
place. He died in 1643, leaving a son
Simon who disappears from the records, leaving
no issue. The Robert Marston place was
sold to William Moulton by Simon. Moulton
sold it to Richard Knight, who, on October
5, 1653, sold it to the present owner, Jeremiah
Marston.
Captain William Marston was born in England in 1592; married and had several children before he came to America. Land was granted to him in Hampton as early as June 30, 1640, and it is probable that a house lot was assigned to him earlier. He lived near the present site of the town house on the farm
