General Notes: Husband - Thomas Watson

There has long been discussion (see John Mark Moses History of Northwood) whether this person is Benjamin or Thomas. The will of Benjamin of Nottingham 1806 lists legatees Eldest son Moses W.; 2nd son William; 3rd son Thomas, 4th son Benjamin; 5th son Eliphalet; eldest daughter Sarah Folsom; 4th daughter Mary Runnells; and daughters Hannah Shaw, Elizabeth Watson and Jane Watson. I beleive this is for father Benjamin.

Later there was a "signing out" by heirs of "Thomas Watson late of Nottingham, deceased; the heirs being Abigail Watson, Susan Watson, Sarah Reynolds, wife of Daniel; Abigail York and Eunice Watson, all of Newmarket; 'Jewell' (Sewall?) Watson of Nottingham, Jonathan Watson of Northwood; and Eliphalet Watson of Lowell, Ma. No relationship stated.' Exeter Deeds 288-203. I believe this is for Thomas, son of Benjamin. The first Abigail mentioned is probably his surviving wife.


General Notes: Wife - Abigail Foss

Outlived her husband many years, died Northwood and buried in Nottingham, NH
Age 88 in 1860 in Northwood in household of Israel Durgin (60) and Eunice Durgin (daughter? age 48).

He then removed to Pittsfield, and engaged in carpentering, dealing in lumber and running a box factory in partnership with James Griffin. In 1900 he began to spend winters with his son, in Salem, MA, and summers in Pittsfield. He sold the mill about 1902 to Evans and Page."
