| Thomas /Bachelder BIRTH ABT. 1766 DEATH 6 MAY 1845 Loudon, New Hampshire OCCUPATION Farmer BURIED Cemetery on Mill Road, Windsor, Maine Thomas lived in Loudon until his marriage in 1787, but in or about that year he settled in Cabot, Vermont. He lived there about six years and then returned to Loudon, where he was taxes 1794-1822. He was elected auditor in Cabot in 1789, and constable and collector in 1793. In September 1821, Thomas sold his Loudon property and in June 1822, then "of Loudon", bought land in Windsor, Maine, to which he promptly moved, and lived at least until 1841, and perhaps until his death. The doubt in this is due to the fact that his gravestone in the cemetery on Mill Road, in Windsor, states he died in Loudon, May 6, 1845, aged 78. - from the Corrections of Pierces' Work by Charles Batchelder Jacob /Bachelder BIRTH 30 JAN 1804 East Kingston, New Hampshire DEATH 12 SEP 1835 Portsmouth, Ohio Jacob lived at East Kingston, and employed a few hands making "Sale shoes" for manufacturers in Haverhill, Mass.
