Notes

!According to the "History of Bethel" (p.40) James Swan, son of Joshua SWAN of Methuen and a descendant of Robert SWAN of Boston and Rowley, Married Mary Smith, moved from Fryeburg to Sudbury Canada in 1779. He came to the "wilds of Maine" fleeing from an incident where he with two others were impressed into the British navy and joined them to force the captain to drop them off in Boston (This is before the revolutionary war, of coarse). He was also described as a friend of Sabattis, the famous Piquaket indian who lived with him.
