[page 1163 "Saco Valley Settlements and Families" by G.T. Ridlon]
Physically, there has been a marked resemblance in all branches of the family; certain peculiar characteristics almost universally prevail. A "Tibbetts' eye!" No other like it. In the "white" of this orb there was a tint of blue such as I have never seen in any other. When one of the name was excited to anger that eye was invested with a menacing, fiendish, infernal expression, that, when seen by one who had become the object of their displeasure, was not soon forgotten. Then there was, and is, something indescribably peculiar about the cheek of a genuine Tibbetts; not in respect to "brass," which was doubtless there, but in formation, in muscular expression. The most prominent elevation of this was not on a line with the bridge of the nose, where it should have been, but away down by the end of it. When one smiled there was a movement right there on that Tibbetts' cheek that passes description; as old professors used to say: "Better felt than 'spressed."
And a standard Tibbetts' nose!" Upon this enormous facial appendage the old fellows were certainly entitled to a patent of nobility; it was the family sign manual. Of appalling prominence, wide at the end and spread out at the nostrils as if put on when hot. When a blast was blown upon this doublebarreled horn it gave forth a "sartin sound," mellow, ringing, resounding, and far-reaching as a bugle. To hear a "Tibbetts' nose" was to remember the sound a life-time. I am not jesting; this is serious description. Those old veterans were proud of such a nose; the larger the more pride. They cracked jokes about them and sometimes ornamented them with brilliant colors such as crimson or scarlet. Fair complexions and blue eyes have prevailed in the Tibbetts family; dark eyes and swarthy tissues were transmitted by mothers from other septs.
They were good story-tellers, had good stories to tell, were artful word-painters, reveled in irony, and were seldom prodigal of truth. They possessed an inexhaustible fund of humor that was irresistible when in full swing. They feasted on a plate of sharp jokes and would laugh till the flood gates of their tears became unfastened.
