Historical Series

Captain Samuel Holden was the first settler in this place (Holden Town) now known as Moose River Plantation. He was born at Groton, MA in 1772 on June 17. In 1797 (Oct. 1st) he married Jane Farnsworth. Two daughters were born at Groton, namely Almira Holden and Jane. About the year 1800 Capt.

Capt. Holden started from Anson for Moose River on Mar 4, 1819.

Holden built him a log cabin, covered it with bark, and here they made their home in the wilderness. There was not an inhabi- tant for miles around and had it not been for the abundance of fish in the river and the game in the forests they could not have lived; but with this and his account book shows the small amount they received from travellers that were passing back and forth from Canada they were able to obtain a living the first 2 or 3 years. After the first two or three years they were enabled to raise small crops and before long Capt. Holden had plenty. Before his death there was quite a settlement formed around him.
