David was a soldier of the American Revolutionary War. Their marriage was a double marriage with brother Jonathan, married in Buckfield, Me.
Jonathan and David Record, Twin brother's, said to have been born in Pembrook, then residents of Bridgewater, Mass., came into the township the same year, to select lots for a settlement. They went to Sylvester Plantation in 1776. Two others of the name of Record were among the first settlers there, and they may have been related. In company with one Phillips they raised corn there that year. Jonathan, at least, was in Sylvester in the early part of the next year, as we have seen. they began their clearing between North and South Hill, and erected a habitation to accommodate two families. Both had seen service in the Continental Army and both were unmarried, but the happy event had been anticipated, and the time appointed, for celebrating the nuptials. Jonathan's sweetheart was Remember Briggs of Bridgewater, David's was Abigail Damon of Pembroke. The double wedding took place as appointed and their wedding trip was the journey to their home in the wilds of Maine. All went well with them for awhile, but later there was a disagreement between the wives and each husband espousing the cause of his wife, the brothers agreed to separate and live apart, Jonathan leaving the lot to David selected another on North Hill, on what was until recently know as the Rasselas Cole Farm.

Her brother is Isaac Brewster, of the Second Ward. She was always a faithful consistent member of the Presbyterian Church, a kind mother and a good neighbor.

SOURCE: Mauch Chunk Coal Gazette of 6/21/1895

(From original poster on Ancestry board) NOTE: Sarah was the daughter of Samuel and Sarah Brewster. She married Douglas McLean about 1839, and that marriage ended when he left for the gold rush of 1849. She married again to John Bryson, 5/11/1850. He died in 1870. It is possible she was married between 1845 and 1850 to someone else, but most likely she was only married twice.

MOTHER OF CIVIL WAR HERO AXEL HAYFORD REED

A BIOGRAPHY OF HULDAH BISBEE REED, by Larry Overmire (3rd great grandson), Aug. 2008:

Huldah Bisbee was born on the Bisbee homestead in Sumner, Oxford County, Maine, on Nov. 11, 1803, the youngest of ten children of Revolutionary War veteran Lt. Elisha Bisbee and his wife Mary "Molly" Pettingell.

Huldah's mother died in 1811 when she was only 8 years old. Her father being unable to properly care for her, she was sent to live with a Mr. Waterman, a blacksmith of Buckfield, Maine, but she was unhappy there and moved back home for a short while. Then she was sent to live with her sister Sally and her husband Gad Hayford. They were also taking care of Huldah's sister Thursea. Huldah lived with the Hayfords until she married.

Huldah's son Axel H. Reed in his genealogy quoted an Aunt Martha Bisbee's recollections of Huldah:

"She was a pretty girl and woman and of a mild and lively disposition, always ready to sacrifice her own happiness for that of others. She had a very red head and curly when young, but at maturity turned an auburn."

At the age of 16, on July 8, 1820, on her family homestead, Huldah married 21-year-old Sampson (III) Read (later spelled Reed), the son of Sampson Read Jr. and Jane Bradford Ellis. Huldah gave birth to 8 children: Elisha Bisbee, Lewis Bradford, Emily Mandeville, Lydia Phelps, Huldah Bisbee, Sampson Jr., Axel Hayford, and Augustus Stevens (died in childhood).

Initially, Sampson and Huldah moved to the 'Mason Farm' near Bear Mountain where their first child Elisha was born." After his brother Bradford died, Sampson and Huldah moved into the Read family homestead to care for his parents. Sampson made many improvements on the buildings and property until it became the center of attraction for the whole township.

Sampson was a prominent farmer and cattle drover, a representative in the Maine legislature, who served one term on the governor's council.

Huldah died of consumption on July 11, 1842, at the relatively young age of 38. She was buried in the Read family lot in the Starboard Hill Cemetery in Hartford (aka The Meeting House Hill Cemetery). Her tombstone says, "First my heart & then my hand
Till death did part the wedding band."

Vital Information Source:
Birth and baptism information is from the Roberts Family Bible, presently in the possession of Julia Roberts Guttman, John's sister. The pastor of the Evangelical Church (town not known) was I.J. Reitz. Witnesses were Mr. and Mrs. Paul Synder, Mrs. Roberts (Sarah), Mrs. Smith (Lucy Ann Schoenberger Smith, a.k.a. Lizzie) and the parents, Horace and Katie.

Known as "Mack", Walter showed an early interest in automobiles (he was arrested for speeding-15 miles per hour) and known in the late twenties as having more knowledge of the intricacies of carburetors than anyone else in the county. He was involved in automotive tune-up equipment from the earliest days. Along with a friend, Bill Slifer, he designed and manufactured such devices as coil testers. He sold and sometimes repaired equipment designed by the Wiedenhoff Corp. and later Allen Electric and Equipment Co., modern versions of which are sold today. Aware that mechanics must be taught proper use of this equipment, he organized classes in New York City and Long Island City. In conjunction with these classes, he published a series of pamphlets "Troubleshooting in High Speed Motors" for Kem Manufacturing Co. He also wrote a series of articles for Bus Transportation magazine.
