THE PRESIDENT'S REPORT

T empus fug its!

lt has been a plcasmt' to serve as President of rhe .Jewett F n111ily of America for the past fifteen months - to prcside at the twent y-.~econd Reunion in RO\\•lcy and to offer a soun·nir thina plate with the J ewett Coat­of-A1m s in color in the ccnccr of the plate. and mo"c particularly to meet wich so many .Jcwetts in per. on or by correspondrnc<·. T ime flies so fast that wp

have not becn able lO do all the things W<' would like to do in thc name of the .J ewell Family of America . especially when it has to be trc:ncd as an extra-curricular activity or hobby.

I wa nt to thank all oJ Lite members that have written to me a nd a polog ize for not having responckcl to a ll of the lcttns. 1 am g rateful for tlw many irn·itations to visit J ewctts in various parts of the country . H ow T would likr' to do it. 1 hopr T may some day.

l rcmernhcr George A. ] l'Wctl when he was pn'sident of the Fa mily. He tra q ::Jcd extensively and went out of his way to call on Jcwctts. It wo1dd be helpful if WC cou ld find one or more volunteers who arc intel"CSLl'd in [he J ewl' tt Fam ily and have the time and means to travel, for by calling on Jewctts iL would be easy to h11ild up the J ewe ll Fru11ily of America, as George A. J ewett did when he was president. This offers a most interesting challenge and an intriguing study of Americana, both historically and genealogically.

ll was panially for thi~ reason that l rrcommended to the Board of Directors a nd to the member~ assembled at the reunion that in order to broaden representation on the Board, \W increase the Board of Directo rs from six to fifteen. This wo1dd make it more diffic 11l t to hold meetings of the entire Board , and so it was suggested that a quornm be one-third of th at number. Both of these suggestions were approved a nd adopted by thl· Board of Directors and the membership.

O nly ten Directors were elec ted but these included Yfr. G. H arold Pfau from Tutson , Arizona , a nd M r. Donald C. ] t'wcu from C leveland, Ohio. Wr hope to add to the Boa rd of Directors from oth<'r parts of the country in due tim<'.

It is with sincere regret tha t we report elsewhere in these pages the death of Mr. William Chas<· .J ewett, who was a fa ithful Director and a con­tinuous n1ember of the J ew<·it Family of America since l910. Or. F rank Sniffen J ewett is now serYing his country in the Navy. ~fr. H enry W. Jeweu of West Palm Reach . F lorido, has resigned as corporation counsel a nd this post has not been fill ed . This accounts for tliosc \Vho no longer appear in our official Family.

J t is with great pleasu rl' that I recommend tn the Hoard of Directors and those in attenda nce a t the k cunion t he eleva tion of six faithful members. a nd that tlwse recommcndaLions were tmanimously approved by hoth Directors and members. and given an appropriate round of applause. J udge Theo S. J ewett o f Laconia, New Hampshire, was nam('d President Emeritus, ha\·ing sen ·ed as president for twenty-one years. Add<'d to our list of H onorary Lifr M embers were H erschel C . .J ewett. immedia te past president; Raymond D. Jewett, our Vice Presidt'nl who has served under three preside nts long a nd faithfull y; Everett Douglas J eweLt and hi~ good wif<' Edna P. J ewett, witl1out whom this J ewett Family of America might not have continued actively, and Dr. Willia m A. J ewett, who with Everett Douglas were the o nly o riginal

A PAGE FROM THE LIFE OF A PIONEER

By M rs. I. r. Jewett, Waterford, Maine

Contributed with addit ional notes by M iss Marian G . T odd

While looking through an old scrap book I found the undated poem: "A Page From The Life of a Pioneer'' bearing the name of the author, Mrs. I . F . Jewett of \Vatl'rford, M aine. H ere was a mystery! I wondered if J could locate the family or descendants of the author, "Nfrs. I saac F. Jewett, who knew so much of the courageous CJ1aplin F amily from Rowley.

Severa l summers a<>'o J tra,·eled LO Waterford. :My trip was unsuccessfu l a.~ at that time I did n~t locate :my of the Jewett family descendants. I did, however, lind the property of the Chaplin heirs.

The old Rowlcv Road, in ?\orth Waterford, which leads to tlw orig ina l Chaplin property '~' as not pa-~sablc, so I followed a road leading past a meeting IJousc a ncl burial ground, thence by the old Lucien Jewe tt place. I came upon a little cemetery, part of which was growing up to brush and trees. H erc I fo uncl several g ravestones bearing the names of some of the early se ttlers of Rowley, those of C ha plin, Saunders, G reene, H obson, Jewett and }>Jununer. One of the stones, as I remember, was that of M ary Sa11nclcrs Cha plin, which bore the words, " Born in Rowley, M ass." Poor Mary, wa.5 she homesick for h r r o ld home ? Those words, "Born in Rowley, M ass." seemed tO me that she was so anxious to forever record and for a ll lo sec that the place of her binh was always dear to her.

O thers must have a lso been homesick for lhc old T own of R owley for in the History of Waterford is recorded the words of Po lly Green, ' 1How l used to marvel at my mother's story of leaving her old home in R owley, the beauties of Prosp<'ct Elill on Lhe one· hand and the charming Plum Island on the ocher, for this cold a nd dreary wilderness of Waterford: nor the emotions I felt, half a cenwry afterwards, when I stood for the first time, on a Thanksgi\'ing morning. upon the sam e encha nted P rospect H ill ( nl'ar the foot on Bradford . trert \\'here her mother was born ), O\'erlooking the town and d istant Plum l sland, thl' gateway to the sea and remembered my dear mother, who left all this fifty yea rs bl'fore for a wilderness home,..

A search of the rccorc.ls of Waterford. Oxford County, M aine·, re,·eals that the town lies among the foothills of the White Mountain chain. The area was survered in l 77 1· and the first settler , Da,·id M cWain, born in Bolten, M ass., December N , J 752, traveled there by way of Portland, Sebago Lake and L ong Pond. 'Waterford was incorporated as a to ... vn May 2, 1797, an orthodox minister was set tled in 1799 and a militia company formed the same year. ..

History records tlia L it was the brave men and women from the towns of Bolton, Harvard, Stowe, Northborough and R ow ley, M ass. that fLtrnished most of the early settlers.

T he Northwest pa rt of 'Waterford was for a long time called " Rowley" a nd the old Lo,·ell road from North Wmcrford as far as the Lovell town line• was called "Rowley Street".

The exact date of the coming of the Rowley families to Waterford cannot be determined, except chat L ieut. Thomas Green purchased la nd there in 1788. He was followed by Deacon tephen Jewett and his sons Nathan a nd Ebenezer ; Moses Hobson (who worked for the deacon in Rowley) ; Jonathan,

- 10 -

Samuel and Joshua P lummer; Joshua, Ezekiel, Samu<:] and H 1unphrcy Saunders; Da niel and Da\'id C:hnplin. Their coming and that of E li Longley of Bolton. M ass. and Ebl'r Rice of 1\orrhborough led lo the building or c11tting of the first road through \\'atl·rford. Thi~ road wa-) rougher than "A modern logging road' '.

Petition for the incorporation of Lhc inhabitants of the "Plan tation of Waterford" includul a.' ~igner : Nathaniel. Ebenezer ;,nd tcphen Jewett: Ezekial a nd Joshua Saumkr!-: Thomas and D aniel Green: Daniel Chaplin; Samuel Plummer and Nathan J ewell.

A tax payers Ii t of 1797 includrc;: Daniel and D3\·id Chaplin: D aniel and Lieut. Thoma~ Grel'n; Cnpt. Strplwn , J\athan, Lieut. Ebenezer a nd Nathaniel Jcwelt; Ezl'kicl H umphrry an<l Mrs. Betsey Saunders.

A town meeting was lwlc.I J 11nl' 7, 1797 a nd a partial list of those elected to town office wcrl': D a niel Chaplin, M'COnd se!ccun a n: Daniel Green, deer rcaf; Ebenezer .Jewclt and Sa111ucl Pl 11n1111er, hog constables ; Nathaniel Jewett, field driver.

The organ i'7;ation of the C:hm ch \\'as represen ted by fami lies froll! Rowley. \Ve find the name~ of C hap lin, Jcwe1 t, Pl11 mmer, Saunders on the list ; Stephen Jewett was chosen Dl'arnn. Stephen J rwelt was also appointed J ustice of the Peace in 1799, hut lie clt'clinrd a nd rPcommenclecl thaL Eber l<.ice be appointed.

A~ early ::is 1803 mrntion was made of the Ba ptists in Wa terford and Mighill JC'wett preached for rhen1 n ponion of the time fo r several years. He preached in t he s11mm<·r and kept the school in the wimcr. "Nl aster Chaplin'' chc ll'arned blarksmiLh was their deacon.

About l820 a fullinl{ mill was built at North \ \'aterford by Nathaniel Jewett.

T he subject of the following verse was ~11 s. D aniel Chaplin of R owley, M ass. H e1· n:une bdorc her marriage was ~fary Saunder (many of her re lari,·es resided in R o\\'ley and Georgetown, M ass.) . On their journey Lo '\'aterford, M aine, they were• O\'l:'l taken by a line storm and came very near being drowned whiie crossing L::ike Sebago on a raft of logs. The mother and ch ilci \Yere lashed to a desk, 01 as it was then cnlled a ·chest of drawers'. At the time this pol'm wa~ writt en the: desk w~1s the property of tlw M isses Chaplin of Water ford. The Misses Chaplin were the grandchildren of the woman above mcntionc·<.l. T he child who was brought in her arms, in after years became onr of Lhc lrading 111rn of the town. He \vas in town office a number of years and in many an old farmho use was found his map or town chart .

Now listen my friends, a nd you shall hear A page from the life of a µionce r ; How she left her home in the ''Oki Bay State' ' And started fonh with lie r chosen mate.

To kindred a nd friends she bade adieu, But in her eyes a 111istincss g rew When to "Old R owley" she said "good-bye," And turned away from the wesLern sky.

- I L -

With progress stow they jo~1rned a long. Cheering themselves with s:icred song. T he eyes of their child grew big with fright As clouds and darkness obscured the light.

With tender care she soothed her child And faced the storm, now fie rce and wild, T hey crossed "cbago, in the Equinox Child in her arms, both la~hcd to a box.

Across their raft the wild waters r an, Seeking the life of woman and man, With silent p rayer, a nd courage strong, They gra5ped the logs, were swept aJong.

Tis' light a t last, 0 we lcome sight, The sun comes forth in g lory br ight ,

oon will their journey, ended be, Soon their new home, they gladly sec.

On northern slope of old Beech H ill They went to work wiLl1 strength and will, T he forest echoed both far and wide. T he sound of the axe, with vigor plied.

The years passrd hy on th a t h illsic.le farm, N o want is known, they rl·ar no harm, Noble and tflll' 1 heir lives have been Away from the worry and strife of sin.

Their children now assume· the care, And a ll the hc:tvier burdrn bear, And after many clays of trial One plays in church. the old bass v iol.

The surveyors art he a lso knew And many a boundary line he drrw. \Vith chart and map h is town snpplird. And in his judgment, all relied.

Another made the a nvil ring \Vith heavy blow and steady swing. And o'er his books of Greek <lid pore, Seeking to learn of hidden lore.

But now a hundred years have fled, And they a re n llmbcred with the dead, M ay each kindred a nd each friend Follow their virtues to t he end.

And may we a ll a lesson learn, Ne'er from duty's path to turn, But onward press, with might and main If we at last t he goal would gain.

In the fall, after the Reunion an allempt was made to notify as many membcn, of th(' Family as possible of thi.-; limited offering. To tho~c who did not n.:ccivc thi~ n·)ti<"c. we do ~o now. There are still a few left. although about two-thirds l>f tlJc :,,upply has been sold. Only 308 plates were manu­facturccl. \\'c offrt tl11'm to members of the Family a nd their friends, for these pla1c will r<'adily become a collectors item. The plnte~ are offcr<'d at $8.50 per plate inc luding the cost of indi,-idual packing and insm·c·cl 1t1ailing. lf a ny profit ac<.TllC~ it will be turned O\'er LO the Jewett F:1mily or Amt'l'ica. This will occur only :i.ftcr 250 plates ha\'e been sold and deli,·errd. Cht'cks should be mack o ut and ~ent lo Roger J ewett, Hopprr R oa<l. William ·wwn, who took it upon himsdf l o hav ·these plates man11factmed .

The n ·spom.l· le- 1his o fferi ng has been most interesting. Plates have been shippC'cl into twent y-six s tates inc luding al l the Pacific Coast s tat e~, the District of C:olurnbia. New llrun.~wick and Quebec. A record h:ls bern kepl of the nanies of the p11 rC'h:ise r~.

They hnvc a lrC'<tcly c: r(·atcd considerable inte rest in the J ewell Family of America.. This has ('a11s1•cl 11s to considrr making other offerings from time to time for the hendit of the members and the Jewett F amily of Arncrica. 1c ar<' open LO suggc·st ions of items yo11 would like to o•Nn properly iclrntified with the J ewett Fam ily.

Al the Lim<· of t he 1955 reu nion the Association was issuing a quan crly publication. T hie; p11blir:llion was d iscon t in ued after 1956 because of 1 he amount of tinw and \\'<ll"k in\'okcd. ~o publications were put out in 1957, but in 1938 and thl' following year., we ha,e kept you info111wcl of our acti,·iti<'s by p11bli.,hing a Yt>arbook. . ix-hundred copies haH· lx·<·n printrd each \'Car. of \d1id1 300 haw been di~tributed. and 100 n ·tainccl fo1 futun· rcquc.~ts.

NOTES Everett 0. Jewett, Secretary

Mrs. Jewett a nd T received a g reat many Chri~trn :i $ cards and leLtcrs during tlic holiday season. L::ick of time h as prohibited our answer ing a ll of them, and so we take this opportunity to tell you of our appreciation uf yom remembering us during that h11sy season of the ye~tr. \1Ve a lso woLdu like to have you know thaL we apprec:iace the many letters which we received during 1961 ; some in answer to our queries and some with volunteered information.

Our Family Association continues to grow both in membership and interest. Forty-five new members were added to our rolls la5t year. Fa mily records and individua l famil y 11i~tory comes to us a li110.st daily ! Th!' interest shown at OLtr rcunio11 in Rowley last snmmcr was most encouraging to us and to the other officers.

We have passed our first fifty years. D uring that time some of our goals have bren rea lized ; on others we can report !>OlllC Jcgree of progress; a nd some of the p11rposes for which our fa1 hers organized the Associ:Hion in J 910 seem far in th<' offing.

I sta rted to tell you a bou l the Christma!' cards a nd letters. Two letters in particu lar 1 would like to mcmion. The family letter of Mr. and ~rs. Clyde Jewett Skinner of 13ouldcr, Colorado \\'as excellent. As 1 read 1t, I felt as though I "'as with Clyde on his trip to California. T he ocher letter from M r". William P. (M::rjori(• ) Hillman of ~cwark, D elaware leaves us with a wnrm feel ing for such a dose knit family. 'Ye a re pleased that we arc publish ing he r family li11!' in our genealogical section tl1is year. The Ray J ewNt's of Clark Summit, 1>cnnsylvania tell us on their Christm a.<> car~ ~~at there are ..J.3S~5 .J ewctls in the U nited States. r wonder what the poss1b1hty is of ha\"ing them all as members of the A~so<:iat ion. and a!I of the Jcwetts of Canada. also. A goal for u to stri,·e for.

\\'e lost some valued nwmbcr'l and friends hy drath last year; two charter m embers ancl one who joined two months af ter the Association was incor­porated; and a number of rne111bers who had joj1wd in more recent years and whom we had leaned upoll fo r l1elp and suppor t. Their loss wi ll he fe lt by us and by tht! Associatio11 for ma ny years to come.

A numbe r of mrmbrrs from distant places called to see us during 1961. "·e arc always pleased to welcome and to show anyone who stops the historical places in t he wwn "hich our ancestor !w iped to found nearly three hundred and twent y-fivc years ago. O ther nu•mbcrs write of thrir trips to E urope; to the west coasl: to the east coast; north and south; to Hawaii and some of even traveling around the world. The wanderlust which caused our family LO spread from R owley, Massachusetts to all parts of the U ni ted States a nd Canada continues cn'n to Lhe presen t generat ion.
