THOMPSON FAMILY.
The Thompson family, in its several branches, is one of Wind-

the places of their dwellings. One family lived where Samuel
Bailey now lives.
1, Robert Thompson', with others, petitioned against a new
parish in Londonderry in 1740. In February, 1753, SamueF and
Andrew'^ were signers of a petition in relation to a disturbance in
the parish. Robert^ first name<1, was selectman in 1742, and d.

TUFFTS FAMILY.
1, Dea. John Tuffts^ was probably in Windham as early as
1745. He owned and lived upon the farm in the east part of the
town, near the mill, and now owned by John-S. Brown, which he
bought of Jonathan and Ann (Tuffts) Morison, June 8, 1752. He
was a miller and farmer. He built his saw-mill, which stood on
the hill north of J.-S. Brown's house, about 1755. It is probable
that he built at that time, as the town voted, Dec. 2, 1755, to clear
John Tuffts of his mill rates. He was made an elder in the church
soon after 1760. He sold his farm of 105 acres, June 30, 1774,
for £225 lawful money, to Col. James Gilmore. He left town,
joining the tide of emigration eastward, and settled in Belfast,
Me., where he ended his days. He m. July 7, 1748, Catherine,
sister of Dea. Moore, of Londonderry. She d., and he m.
