    From Genealogical Collections Concerning the Scottish House of Edgar by Andrew Edgar
    "David Gammon served in the Revolution in Capt. Samuel Whitmore's Co., 3rd, Cumberland County Regt. of Militia under command of Col. Reuben Fogg of Scarborough, Me. This company with that of Capt. Benjamin Larrabee started to march to Peekskill, N. Y., Dec. 25, 1777. They were allowed a penny for each mile traveled, receiving for three hundred and ninty-two miles the sum of one pound, twelve shillings, and eight pence.

    Samuel, a brother of David, also a soldier in the Revolution, signed with David Ray, Benjamin Patch, Joseph Hancock, and Jonathan Moors an application to the Proprietors of Otisfield Plantation for the warrant of the first meeting in that plantation. This meeting was held Apr. 23, 1787, at which time not more than thirty families had settled in the plantation."

    From: A History of Otisfield, Cumberland County, Maine from the Original Grant to the Close of the Year 1944 by William S. Spurr; Pages 392-393
    "GAMMON, DAVID, son of Joseph the 1st, married Mary Doane in 1777, (int. May 3d) in Gorham, Me. He was in Otisfield in 1790 or before. He was the first settler on lot 86, since known as the Eben Sawyer, and later as the David Stone place. David Gammon bought of Wm. Gorham, adm. of the estate of David Gorham, late of Barnstable, Mass. a certain hundred acre lot of land numbered 86, in consideration of the said Gammon settling the same accordign to the injunction of the General Court. Dated Apr. 14, 1786. Timothy Jorday sold and deeded to David Gammon, one half of lot 85 adjoining the lot improved by Lieut. Joseph Hancock. Dated Sept. 3, 1789, 45 pounds. David Gammon sold to George Pierce lots 85 and 86, in consideration of 150 pounds, deed dated Nov. 6, 1793.

    "David Gammon was one of the greatest bear hunters in Otisfield, I think he killed as many as twenty bears in one year, sometimes. The bears were very thick at that time and used to go into his cornfield and get filled up and then they went and laid down in the swamp between his cornfield and the road and cooled off. He owned a bear hound, Benj. Patch, another and Benj. Wight another. He moved away to Buckfield after 1812 I think. He lived on the hill east of the road, opposite the house that Jerry Sawyer moved from Bell Hill and lived in. " (Statement of Enoch Spurr and Benj. F. Wight.)

    There were four brothers, early settlers of Otisfield, Samuel, Joseph, David, and William. Samuel, David and Willliam were here in 1790. Also sister Christiana who m. Robert Knight."
