• Notes

  According to Goold, he was a Revolutionary War soldier. He was the first owner of the Mclellan-Sweat house in Portland (now part of the Museum of Art there). By 1800 he was quite a wealthy ship-owner and merchant in Portland. The War of 1812, however, was disastrous to him. See the attached histories for more on him and his family. He had two wives, but his 12 children were probably all by his first wife, Abigail Browne. [4]
