Willaby Colby

b. February 28, 1745, d. October 30, 1829
  • Reference: 0224b
  • Willaby Colby was born on February 28, 1745 in Amesbury, Massachusetts.3
  • He was the son of Abraham Colby and Elizabeth Blaisdell.1,2
  • Willaby Colby was baptized on May 22, 1748 in First Church, Amesbury, Massachusetts, and became the pioneer of the family in coming to Bow. On attaining his majority he pushed into the wilderness on a tour of investigation, and he selected the land oh Wood Hill, in Bow, where his father and the entire family subsequently settled. He returned to his Massachusetts home and at once began making preparations for settling in the new location.2,3
  • He married his third cousin, Sarah Sargent, daughter of Phillip Sargent and Martha Hadley, on January 14, 1767 in Amesbury, Massachusetts. When they removed to the new home in the year 1768, she rode on horseback, carrying in her arms their infant child, born in the fall of 1767. He built a log house, which was soon succeeded by a frame building that was occupied after him by his son, Philip. He was skilled in the use of carpenter's tools, and was well adapted to building, being able to climb with ease and without fear over any frame. In July, 1777, Mr. Colby was one of eight who marched from Bow, under Captain Benjamin Bean, to the relief of Ticonderoga. On arriving at Charlestown, New Hampshire, they learned that the fort had been evacuated, and returned after a service of seven days. In 1774 he purchased of Benjamin Noyes lot No. 5, in the fourteenth range, comprising one hundred acres, which was called "Nottencook." This land he divided between his sons, James and Philip. He was one of the committee to pass upon the completion of the church building in 1792, and was selectman in 1796-97.4,5
  • Willaby married Molley Sargent, daughter of Starling Sargent, in 1797.5
  • Willaby died on October 30, 1829 in Bow, Merrimack County, New Hampshire, at age 84.6
  • He was buried in Evans (North) Cemetery on White Rock Hill Rd, by Turee Pond, Bow, Merrimack County, New Hampshire.7
