Gershom Collier of Northport ME gravestone
Gravestone of Gershom (5) Collier ("Gershom of Northport, ME") in the Collier Burying Ground. This Gershom Collier, one of several in the family, was b. Apr. 30, 1738 in Scituate, MA and is probably the individual who participated in the Boston Tea Party in Dec. 1773, in company with his cousin and fellow Collier descendant Matthew Loring. Gershom's early years have been difficult to reconstruct: he may have used the first name "Southworth" at times, lived in Hull, Scituate and probably Boston. He may have been married at least once prior to marrying Abigail Nash in Scituate in 1783, at the age of 45. By 1800, perhaps a few years earlier, the family was in Northport, ME.
