Excerpt from History of the Town of Peterborough, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire: With the Report of the Proceedings at the Centennial Celebration in 1839; An Appendix Containing the Records of the Original Proprietors; And a Genealogical and Historical Register This history was begun too late, - not till the second genera tion had all passed away, and the third had become Old men. It is unfortunate that the second generation was suffered to pass away before any one had been found to put in a perma nent form the large knowledge which it possessed relating to the men and events in the early history of Peterborough. I have found many descendants Of the early settlers Of the town lamentably deficient in the history of their own families, being able to go no farther back than their grandfathers. I have ikad, in numerous instances, to make up the first and Often the second generations of these families as I could from other sources. At the present time, tradition seems to have died out. Many large families have become extinct, strangers having come into their places, who knew not the fathers; while other families have been greatly reduced by emigration and removal. Altogether, such changes have taken place that it becomes almost impossible to trace back the history of the early times.
