She married to Albert Eugene HALLADAY on 26 Mar 1895 in Williamsville, Windham, VT.⁽⁴¹⁶⁷⁾⁽⁴¹⁶⁸⁾ My list of children for Albert and Hannah is very likely to be incomplete.

Around 1947, when Albert turned 82, he took up carving detailed farm equipment in wood using jackknife and hacksaw: oxen-pulled sleds carrying maple syrup, manure dumpwagons, and hand tools. He was still carving three years later at 85, up to 12 hours in a day. Although he has given some of his carvings away as gifts, he never chose to sell any. His hobby led to a couple articles in the local newspaper (294, 295).

Henry H. POWERS was born on 2 Dec 1797 in Marlboro, Windham, VT.⁽³³³⁵⁾⁽³⁰⁴⁾ The place of birth is known by the death record of his son Lyman Powers. H his name looks like "Harry" on some documents and "Henry" on others plus the IGI has both a Henry and Harry. He resided in 1818 in Marlboro, Windham, VT.⁽³³³⁸⁾ He appeared on the census in 1830 in Newfane, Windham, VT.⁽⁷²⁴¹⁾ 1 m<5, 1 m5-9, 1 m 10-14, and 1 m 70-79

1 f 10-14, 1 f 40-49, and 1 f 70-79. I believe that the elderly female is probably henry's mother Susanna. He appeared on the census in 1860 in Newfane, Windham, VT.⁽⁷²⁴³⁾ At this time, Henry was living wife his wife, 6 children (Lyman had moved out) and four people each identified as "pauper:" Joseph Bellows (65), Polly Bellows (60), Maria Bartlett (45) and Betsy Pratt (40).

Josiah POWERS was born on 4 Oct 1770 in MA or NH.⁽¹⁷⁵⁾⁽⁷²⁴⁸⁾ This date was calculated from the age in days at death. His death record say he was born in Plymouth, Plymouth, MA, but the 1850 census says he was born in NH. He appeared on the census in 1800 in Marlboro, Windham, VT.⁽⁷²⁴⁹⁾ It would appear that Josiah POWERS was the first POWERS in Marlboro as he is the only one in the 1800 census. The following are living with in his household:

The value of real estate $600 and personal estate $429. The census shows that at this time Lyman (26, Farmer) was living with Amanda Powers (20) and Edwin Baldwin (18), Farmer. I am unsure of the relationship any any of these people. Amanda may have been a first wife, or perhaps she is his sister. Who is Edwin Baldwin? He served as a in 1863 in Civil War (Union).⁽⁷²⁵⁸⁾ He died on 21 Jul 1911 in Newfane, Windham, VT.⁽³³³⁵⁾ He died from cancer of the liver. He was buried in Warren Cemetery. Windham Co, VT.

John PROCTOR Yeoman was born about 1595 in Yorkshire, England.⁽⁷²⁸⁵⁾⁽⁷²⁸⁶⁾⁽⁷²⁸⁷⁾⁽⁷²⁸⁸⁾ (only date from Pope) He emigrated about 15 May 1635 to Massachusetts Bay Colony.⁽⁷²⁸⁹⁾⁽³⁰⁾⁽⁷²⁹⁰⁾⁽⁷²⁹¹⁾⁽⁷²⁹²⁾ He came on the Susan and Ellen at age 40 with wife Martha (28), John (3) and Mary (1). The ship departed London 13 Apr 1635 and arrived safe about mid-May at Massachusetts Bay. He moved between 15 May 1635 and 1 Jan 1636 to Plum Island, Ipswich, Essex, MA.⁽⁷²⁹³⁾ He Purchased property between 15 May 1635 and 1647 in Ipswich, Essex, MA.⁽⁷²⁹⁴⁾⁽⁷²⁹⁵⁾ According to Proctor (711), purchased property once before 1635 and again before 1647. The latter he sold in exchange for a farm on 1 May 1647."He became one of the 27 richest inhabitants who had two shares in Plum Island, in 1664." He moved about 1668 to Salem, Essex, MA.⁽⁷²⁹⁶⁾ Accounts differ as to when he moved to Salem (474, 711). I have assumed that he moved at the time that he sold his Ipswich property. He Sold marshland on 1 Sep 1668 in Ipswich, Essex, MA.⁽⁷²⁹⁷⁾ The transaction includes the statement, "I John Prockter Senior of Jubaque (Chebacco) in Ipswich ... Yeoman," which established his residence in Ipswich as late as 1668. He signed a will on 18 Aug 1672 in Salem, Essex, MA.⁽⁷²⁹⁸⁾⁽⁷²⁹⁹⁾⁽⁷³⁰⁰⁾⁽⁷³⁰¹⁾ He died before 28 Sep 1672 in Salem, Essex, MA.⁽⁷³⁰²⁾⁽⁷³⁰³⁾ He had an estate probated on 28 Sep 1672 in Salem, Essex, MA.⁽⁷³⁰⁴⁾⁽⁷³⁰⁵⁾ He was a husbandman.⁽⁷³⁰⁶⁾ He was described as He was a large man, bold, fearless, implusive, and hasty..⁽⁷³⁰⁷⁾ According to Leland Proctor (625), the marriage record appearing in the Ipswich Vital records, "Martha w. John, June 13, 1659," has generally been assumed to refer to a second wife of John Proctor Sr. This would seem quite the coincidence that after marrying first Martha HARPER, John Sr. would marry a second woman named Martha. In fact, Leland Proctor claims this is incorrect: "There is little to support the idea that the Martha Proctor (nee Harper) who came with him from England is not the same Martha he named in his will." Proctor says this second Martha was the first wife of John Proctor Jr (accused witch). Leland Proctor ascribes her death three days after the birth of her son Benjamin to complications during childbirth. Parents: John PROCTOR and Elizabeth STAUNTON.

He married to Martha HARPER on 1 Jun 1630 in London, England.⁽⁷³⁰⁸⁾ Children were: John PROCTOR, Marie PROCTOR, Joseph PROCTOR, Abigail PROCTOR, Joseph PROCTOR, Benjamin PROCTOR, Martha PROCTOR, Sarah PROCTOR, Hannah PROCTOR, Benjamin PROCTOR.

John PROCTOR was christened on 9 Oct 1631 in Assington, Suffolk, England.⁽⁷³⁰⁹⁾ Assington is 5 miles from London. Pioneers of Massachusetts says he was born in London. He emigrated about 15 May 1635 to Massachusetts Bay Colony.⁽³⁰⁾ ⁽⁷³¹⁰⁾ He came aboard the Susan and Ellen at 3 with his parents and sister Mary. The ship departed London 13 Apr 1635 and arrived safe about mid-May at Massachusetts Bay. He died on 19 Aug 1692 in Salem, Essex, MA.⁽⁷³¹¹⁾⁽⁷³¹²⁾⁽⁷³¹³⁾⁽⁷³¹⁴⁾ John PROCTOR was a successful farmer and tavern keeper who lived far from Salem Village, on the edge of Salem town. He had risen to considerable wealth and prestige (a tavern keeper was a very respectable position). He had never been involved in village politics, but opposed the village elite. The PUTNAMs, who may have considered him an outsider, disliked him. His second wife, Elizabeth Thorndike PROCTOR, was among the first arrested for witchcraft. John Proctor initially testified against her (perhaps their marriage was rocky) but as the witchcraft hysteria grew, he retracted his testimony and found himself accused of witchcraft and imprisoned. During his own trial, a conversation that he had had when he met Samuel Sibley on the road to Salem Village did not help. He had expressed skepticism about the alleged "fits" of the girls and the validity of the witchcraft trials, "if the girls were left to their own devices, "we should all be devils and witches quickly." A petition for their release was signed by 32 of his Ipswich neighbors, testifying to the goodness of their character. [What did John say in his own defense?] John made out his will while in prison directing his property to be divided equally among his children (about 17 £ each). John and Elizabeth were tried, found guilty, and scheduled to be executed 19 Aug 1692. John was hung but, due to her pregnancy, Elizabeth's execution was stayed until after she had the baby. The child was born in prison. Soon after, the hysteria had ceased so Elizabeth and her children, Bassett and William, were released from prison. Four years later, however, Widow Procter had to beseech the Legislature for her husband's furniture from forfeiture. Parents: John PROCTOR Yeoman and Martha HARPER.

He married to Martha in 1651.⁽⁷³¹⁵⁾

John PROCTOR died in Mar 1648 in Kensington. Middlesex, England. Parents: Henry PROCTOR and Joanne.

He married to Elizabeth STAUNTON. Children were: John PROCTOR Yeoman, George PROCTOR.
