He d. in Dixmont, Me., Feb. 25, 1831; wife d. there May 23, 1837. He was a mill-wright by trade, and purchased a mill site in Dixmont in 1806. He left Harrison that year with his two sons, Daniel and John, and walked through the wilderness to his new land, where he immediately built a grist-mill. "Elder" John Chadbourne was an exhorter who early settled in Cornish and held religious services in private dwellings of the pioneers. He was there more than a century ago, buildings g wheels and wooden plows on week days, and holding forth with gospel sword on the Lord's day. A church was organized in 1792, and Mr. Chadbourne ordained about 1795. He traveled extensively as an evangelist, and was successful in gathering churches. He was the father of nine children: Daniel, Elcy, Polly, James, Sarah, Eliza, John, Benjamin, Hannah. [ref 66:239,574] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - REV JOHN 6 CHADBOURNE (John 5 James 4-3 Humphrey 2 William 1), born Sanford ME 24 Mar 1752 (Emery); died Dixmont ME 25 Feb 1831 (EF-Sanford-Springvale, 57); married Berwick ME 24 Oct 1774 ELIZABETH GRANT, baptized Berwick 8 Apr 1752 (NEHGR 82:321), died 23 May 1837, age 85 (Boyle, op cit), daughter of Daniel and Sarah (Cleare) Grant. A millwright by trade, John was an ordained Baptist minister in 1797 and an evangelist at Cornish in 1798. He preached in Cornish, Lebanon, Buxton, Limington, Bethel, Harrison, and Dixmont ME. He was pastor of the Baptist Church at N Limington 1799-1802, a missionary in Etna and Carmel and vicinity 1807 to 1808, pastor at Dixmont 1809-1811, supplied them occasionally 1816-1826, and became their pastor again in 1827 until his death in 1831. In Sanford he was known as Elder John Chadbourne, First (to distinguish him from the other John). He was of Cornish in the 1790 census with 1 male over 16, 3 males under 16, and 5 females. His first six children were born in Sanford, three in Cornish, and the last one in Bethel (TR). In Bethel he lived at the lower part of town. He was one of the founders of Dixmont and, with his sons, built the first grist-mill and made their own mill-stones in 1807 on Folsome Brook. He was in the 1810 census of Dixmont with 3 boys and 4 girls and in 1820 with 2 boys and 1 girl, so it seems one married son or daughter was still with him. Children, surname CHADBOURNE: Daniel, Elcy, Polly, James, Sarah, Eliza, John, Benjamin. [ref 74:after 121] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | ||||||||||
