EPSOM DEATHS

from the Congregational Church Records 1815-1824, 1831

Priscilla Hammond in 1933 copied the early Congregational Church records of Epsom from the originals housed at the NH Historical Society. Included were several years when the church recorded deaths, as the town did not keep vital records until much later. Their clerk Jonathan Dolbeer and nephew Calvin, continued a list of deaths until 1874.
