He settled on a part of his father 's origin al far m, at the foot of Meeting-House Hill, and built the old h ouse th at was to rn down a few years ago. His son Christopher built the h ouse n ow standi ng (1908) on the same lot beside the old barn, and kept t avern t here. In t he building there was a large hall, which was used f or religio us meetin gs and social purposes; it is perhaps best remember ed as "Chri s. Dyer's da nce-hall." The ancient house and barn, overtopp ed by grand o ld trees, fo rm a picturesque group.

General Notes: In record of her birth, her name was written "Matthew", a singular error.
Martha Dyer has left an indelible imprint; she has been held up to succe ed ing generations as typical of all that was best "in the Micah Dyer fa mi ly ." She probably inherited many of the Huguenot characteristics of h er m oth er, Hannah (Marriner) Dyer. Among the cold and sturdy New England er s, s he was an exotic -- possibly little understood in her day. She w as wi tt y, proud, and vivacious; she put life alike into work and into p la y. S he is described as small in stature, with black eyes and black h ai r; in h er old age she was known, far and near, as "Grannie Mark ."

"History Of Cape Elizabeth, Maine" by William B. Jordan, Jr., 1965Abo ut 18 10, Ezekiel Dyer, who resided on Thames Street in Portland wi th h is son t he master shipbuilder Lemuel Dyer, and who also operated a mar i ne railw ay at Clay Cove, began in a very modest way to build ships ne ar t he fer ry landing at Cape Elizabeth. Although he remained a reside nt of Por tla nd it is known that he built three small vessels over a peri od of fo ur ye ars. In 1810 he launcehed the brig" Cordelia of 185 tons. S he must ha ve b een an able craft, for thirty-eight years later, despi te two fir es at s ea and extensive rebuilding in 1837, she sailed on h er ninetieth vo ya ge to the West Indies. She was finally condemned in 18 49 as no longer se a worthy, and broken up.from p. 174 early in 1812 he bu ilt the privateer / s chooner "Dart" of f orty tons. Within five wee ks of the day her keel w as laid, the "Dart" w as ready for sea. She was l ong and low with a pin ky stern but carried t wo naval guns and a sizeab le crew of approximate ly forty-six men. Her mas ts wer hinged just abo ve the deck to facilita te concealment should it be n ecessary to hide fr om some resolute pursu er in a secluded cove or inlet. L ate in 1812 she s ailed from Portland a nd vanished at sea without a trace.The "Dart" was fo llowed by the schoon er "Hound" of thirty-one tons whi ch he launched la te in 1813. These we re apparently the extent of his shipb uilding effor ts at Cape Elizabeth. A lthough the site was abandoned by Ezek iel Dyer, h is family in later yea rs established one of the most active shi pyar ds to grace the port of Port land in the same section of Ferry Villag e.

From Abstracts of Rev War Pension files: Dyer, Mark #W24092, MA lin e, en li sted at Falmouth (now Portland) ME. Gives dates of death, wido ws appli cat ion and her age at time of app. Also says he married Mart ha DY ER on 27 J an 1780 at Cape Eliz.
Some years after his marriage, Mark Dyer built a new house over the "c el la r-hole" of the original house of his father, which had been torn d ow n. Ma ny of the oak timbers of the old house were transferred to t he ne w; they w ere cut from the primeval forest, and had a strength unk no wn in the wo od of to-day. The house stands on the north side of Sawy er St reet, at Sou th Portland Heights, as firm as when it was built. T he land a bout it was t he Deacon Henry Dyer homestead, upon which Mark w as born a nd "raised." Ba ck of the house is a ledge upon which he le ft an enduri ng reminder of h is boyhood days. One part of the rock lies f lat and smoo th for six or eig ht feet out of the turf; on this is chisell ed: MARK DY ER ACE 17 1776. A re lative in Chicago assumes the expen se of keeping t he inscription cleaned a nd legible. It is supposed th at he was thought t oo young to enlist in t he army or navy, and that he u sed his time, "whi le others were fighting a nd a brother-in-law was dyi ng on a Prison-Ship ," to cut his name on the ro ck, "showing himself a tr ue boy -- willi ng to work hard if he could ca ll it play." The reco rd of the pension to h is widow states that Mark Dy er enlisted in the fa ll of 1776, and served s ix months in Captain James Le ach's compan y; as no record of this servi ce is found elsewhere, it is pres umed to ha ve been local. In 1779, his la rger opportunity came; he enlist ed as priv ate in that disastrous expediti on to the Penobscot -- to "Majorb agaduce ." Though his service was only fr om July 7 to Sept. 25, 1779, a per i od of two months and twenty days, in C aptain Joshua Jordan's company, C ol onel Jonathan Mitchell's regiment,( +) he probably encountered severe h ards hip and suffering. Because of t he sudden departure of the panic-stri cken s hips that took them to the Pen obscot, a large proportion of the tr oops we re obliged to make their way b ack along the coast as they coul d. Many h ad thrilling adventures; some di ed by the way.Mark Dyer held t he following town offices: assessor, 1793, 1 795;(*) select man, 1796, 179 7, 1799, 1802, 1804-07, 1809; town treasure r, 1812, 1813.( +) In 181 4, he first was appointed Justice of the Peac e; in church matte rs he w as particularly active. He was Representati ve to the General Cou rt of Ma ssachusetts, from 1800 to 1803.XXX The compe nsation he receiv ed is not k nown; but, in 1804, it was voted that Represe ntatives should ha ve two do llars per day for attendance at sessions, a nd the like sum for ev ery t en miles distance from their homes "to the pla ce of Setting of the Ge ner al Court."Mark Dyer died nearly twenty years be fore his wife Martha. At t he age of s eventy-seven years she applied f or a pension, which was grant ed. The reco rd states that Mark Dyer enlist ed in the fall of 1776, and s erved six mont hs, as private, in Captain Jam es Leach's company, also th at he served thr ee months, in 1779, in Capta in Joshua Jordan's compan y, "in the expediti on to Bagaduce;" that said so ldier enlisted at Falmou th (now Portland), Ma ine. "His widow," aged seven ty-seven years, appli ed for a pension Aug. 2 3, 1838, and "her claim was a llowed;" she was th en living at Cape Elizabet h, Maine.

by the author in paragraph four as 18 April 1862)
John HOWARD, late of Burlington [Chittenden County, Vermont], who diFebr ua ry 1854, aged eighty-four years [by calculation born about 1770 ], as we ll as his brothers, William and Robert, was born at Providence [Provid en c eCounty], Rhode Island. William HOWARD went to Ohio and settl ed as a fa rm eramong the Indians, who were then generally hostile to t he whites, a nd th en itwas that he found an occasion for putting into req uisition t he principl es andpractice of his great progenitor, Roger WILLI AMS, whi ch was to treat thkindly, and in consequence of so doing great ly ameliorat ed the conditi on ofhimself and other newcomers into the neig hborhoo d. He was over six fe et inheight, with a full commanding voice. T he India ns called him their greatfriend, and gave him protection inste ad of troubl e. Robert HOWARD left f orEngland, and as no letters were rec eived he w as supposed to have been lost .
Their father was William HOWARD of London, England, whose ship and ab oa rd were lost, being burned by lightning in a storm at sea, as was sorep ort ed by another ship in sight. He was said to have been of large statu r ea nd an energetic, gentlemanly man of good repute. His being lo st ju st at t hecommencement of the Revolutionary War, when the troubl es of t he country we resuch, no attempt was made to trace or look up h is relative s, from wh om in hislifetime, on return voyages, he brought ma ny valuab le presents for hisfamily, and some of the keepsakes are still r etain ed by members. He wasmarried to Patience DYER of Providence, Rhode I slan d, whose father was Sam uelDYER, who settled on Cabbage Neck, in t he ye ar 1712; and whose mother wPatience WILLIAMS, before her marriage, w ho w as the great granddaught er ofRoger WILLIAMS, the founder of Rhode Is lan d, in 1687, and was a woman ofgreat energy and determination of charac te r. The house is still standingwhere most of the children of Samuel a nd Pat ience DYER were born, on the
place known as the Rodney DYER farm, Cabbage Neck.
The widow of William HOWARD, the mother of John, William and Robert H OW AR D,was again married to Josiah FOSTER, by whom there were four child re n, of w homthree are living, and among their descendants are the fami li es of EsekSAUNDERS and brothers of Saundersfield [Sandisfield, Berkshi re C ounty,Massachusetts?], and Mrs. Patience HOWARD WHITIN of Whitinville [Whit insville, Worcester County], Massachusetts. Her latter days were pa ss ed in the family of her son John HOWARD, and she [Mrs. Patience (DYE R) HOW AR D]died 14 November 1832, aged eighty-three years [by calculati on born a bo
1749].
The wife of the late John HOWARD, who is still living, 18 Apr il 1 86 2, at anage of eighty-eight years, is in good health, and to a rem arkab le degreeretains her faculties. She was Hannah EARL, born at Dartmou th (ca lledPonyganset by the Indians, now Westport [Bristol County], Massa chuse tt s, atCoxet River, six miles from the ocean). Her father was Josh ua EAR L, the s onof Oliver EARL, whose vessels were in the East India a nd Chi na trade, atwhich time it took a year and a half to make the out a nd ho me voyage. Hewent from Newport [Newport County, Rhode Island] to N ew Yor k, and afterremaining there seven years, returned to Newport, a nd th en to Swansey[probably means Swansea, Bristol County, Massachusetts ], whe re he [JoshEARL] died at an advanced age. Her mother [Hannah (EAR L) HOWARD 's mothewas Alice SHERMAN, whose father was Job SHERMAN, whose w ife was A ma GARDNE R.His father [Job SHERMAN's father] was Preserved SHER MAN, who w as the s on ofPhilip SHERMAN, who settled at Portsmouth [Newpo rt County, R hode Islan d] in1637 (where he had a grant of two hundred acr es of land fr om the town, dat ed
10 December 1639), and [Philip SHERMAN] died in March 1686.
She [Hannah (EARL) HOWARD] had an Aunt SHERMAN, the mother of the lateBe nj amin SHERMAN, of Peru [Clinton County], New York, who, attained t he a ge of 104 years, and in the last few years of her life was amused wi th arti cl essuited to the gratification of children, and as is freque nt in extre me o ldage, it was that when on a visit to see her, she at fir st thought t he nwoman, as she called her, was a stranger, and did not gi ve her any att enti on,but on the following day, when it was explain ed to her that it w as her nie ce,Hannah EARL, her recollection came to he r, when she beg an to caress her, a ndexclaim, "Hannah! Hannah!" and after wards knew he r, and was greatly pleas ed
by her company.
Her [Hannah EARL's] father [Joshua SHERMAN], aged seventy years, and her mo ther [Alice SHERMAN] sixty-eight, died at their residence in Westport[B ris tol County, Massachusetts], within a week of each other, during a ve r yfat al prevailing epidemic that was thought to have come into the neighbo rh oo d
by the army.
The children of John HOWARD and Hannah EARL are: (1) Sion Earl [HOWARD], ma rried to Hannah VAIL, daughter of Aaron VAIL of White Creek [probab ly Wh i teCreek in Rennsselaer County, but could be White Creek in Washing ton Coun ty ],New York; whose wife was Mary RALEIGH, the daughter of Edmo nd RALEI GH ofWales, who settled in Cambridge [Washington County], New Yor k, and wh osefamily, with others, had to flee for their lives from the Ind ians, a nd fr omthose more dreaded than the Indians, the Hessians. [Author 's footn ote:Hessians are troops belonging to the county of Hesse Casse l, in German y.They have been frequently hired by Great Britain, particula rly in t he w ar ofAmerican Independence, when they were sold at £40 sterl ing a hea d, £9 ofwhich was to be repaid if they returned alive.] The seco nd was ( 2) DaniDyer [HOWARD], married to Delia CARPENTER, of Hoosick [Ren nselaer C ounty ],New York, daughter of the late Col. John CARPENTER, who se father w as fr om theNine Partners, Dutchess County, New York, and sett led at Pitts town[Rennselaer County, New York], eight miles from the Nor th River, and l iv edthere before the making of wagon roads in that plac e, and at a ti me of gre atscarcity of provisions; and sturgeon, that th en went by the na me of "Alba nyBeef," were drawn from the river by a hor se and chain, f or a distance of t enor more miles, into the country, a nd the famine w as so severe that thepotatoes were dug up for food, and t he parings there of were again plant ed asseed. The third son was (3) Sidn ey Smith [HOWARD ], who died agedeighty-eight years, 30 June 1839. The oth er children ar e: (4) HannahLouise [HOWARD], (5) John Purple [HOWARD], a nd (6) Catheri ne Maria[HOWARD]. The latter [Catherine Maria] is marri ed to Amos C. SPEAR ,druggist, Burlington [Chittenden County], Vermont. A nd there are twogrand daughters: Fanny [HOWARD], daughter of Daniel [HOWAR D], was marri ed toD r. Theodore S. EVANS, formerly of Philadelphia [Phila delphia County],Penns ylvania, now of Paris, France; and Julia Hannah Howa rd, daughter ofCatheri ne Maria. [If Julia Hannah Howard, daughter of Cath erine Maria(HOWARD) SPE AR, was also the daughter of Catherine's husban d, Amos C. SPEA R,then h er name at birth would have been Julia Hannah How ard SPEAR. Thussubmitt er has assumed that "Howard" in "Julia Hannah Howar d" is not a
surname.]
And thus after a lapse of one hundred and sixty years, the cour se of ev en tsis such that, by the marriage of the late John HOWARD to Han nah EAR L, in1797, their children are the direct descendants of Roger WILL IAMS, th efounder of Rhode Island, and also of Philip SHERMAN, and DYER a nd EAR L, h is
associates.
John HOWARD was on board the steamboat "Phoenix" on Lake Champla in wh en i twas burned, on the night of 03 September 1819. [Other accoun ts give t he da teas 04 September or 06 September. It had departed Burling ton, Chitt endenCounty, Vermont, for Plattsburgh, Clinton County, New Yor k. The "Phoe nix ,"built in 1814, was the second steamboat on Lake Champla in.] The re he [Jo hnHOWARD] rendered very great assistance indeed to t he passenger s, and at t hesame time had in charge a package of money belo nging to t he Bank ofBurlington, for exchange with the Montreal Bank, a nd afterwar ds the follow ingresolution and award was presented to h im by the Ba nk of Burlington.
At a meeting of the Directors of the Bank of Burlington, on 16 September 18 19, Present: C. P. VAN NESS, the President, William WHITE, Ozias BUELLu th er LOOMIS, Samuel HICKOK; "Resolved, That the Cashier do, and his ishe re by authorized and required to present to Mr. John HOWARD, the s um of o neh undred dollars for and on behalf of the President, Director s, and Com pa ny ofthis institution, as a testimony of the obligation th ey feel thems elves un derfor his unyielding exertions at the time, and af ter the confla gration [fir e]of the late steamboat "Phoenix," in preservi ng that porti on of theirproperty, eight thousand five hundred dollars, co mmitted to h is care (und erall its various circumstances of exposure), fr om destructi on and loss."
The following is an extract from a notice in the Burlington Free Pr es s: " Wehare called upon to record the death of one of our oldest and mo str espectable citizens, John HOWARD, aged eighty-four years. His death, a salr eady announced, occurred on Friday, 24 February 1854. He leav es an ag edwi dow with whom he has lived the peaceful and uninterrupted en joyment of t h emarriage state for over fifty-five years, also three son s, Mr. Sion E.HOW ARD, merchant of this town [Burlington, Chittenden Count y, Vermont], Da ni el[HOWARD], and John P. HOWARD, late of the Irving Hous e, New York, and td aughters; the sons last named were in Europe at the co mmencement of t he l astillness of their father, and on receiving intellig ence of the sam e, theyhastened their return and had the satisfacti on to be present at t he peri odof his death. During a long residence in B urlington, Mr. [Joh n] HOWARD w asfound ever ready by his counsel, advic e, and purse to contri bute to itsprosperity, as well as to the happine ss of all around him and h is demiseven at his advanced age, leaves a glo om upon many who were famili arly a nd
intimately acquainted with him."
And now, as a condensed obituary Masonic address was made and publ is he d, bythe late most worshipful brother, Philip C. TUCKER, Grand Ma st er of the Gr andLodge of Vermont, which is herewith printed, any furth er n otice of hisgeneral character as a citizen is omitted. And the addre ss th us says:"Within a week after the sudden death of our brother PRAT T, we we re call edupon to mourn the loss of our aged brother John HOWAR D, of Washi ngton Lodg e,No. 3, at Burlington. Brother HOWARD was extensiv ely kno wn as the landlo rdof one of the best and most popular hotels in B urlingt on [Chittenden Count y,Vermont] for many years, and was the fath er of Dani el D.

1130. James Dyer 215 492 1012 (James474, Jones152, John32, Charles8, William1) was born on 3 Oct 1798 in Calais, Washington, Me, died on 9 May 1876 in Calais, Washington, Me1013 at age 77, and was buried in 1876 in Calais, Washington, Me.
General Notes: His first wife's name is NANCY, but ca. 1831 he married Susan E. SMITH. O ne of the sources (Pike's Diary, p. 15) comments that the children of Thom as WATSON were "Ebenezer, Cynthia married Ansel Hill, then married Jas. Dy er?". Does this relate to the present James Jr.? His tombstone at Cala is reads that he died at the age of 78.
The 1800 and 1810 Calais censuses give the impression that James went to l ive with some other relatives after the death (?) of his mother in the 180 0-1810 period. A check of Dyer relatives in Calais does not show any evid ence of him or his brother, Samuel, so it may be presumed that they stay ed with distaff relations until they reached their majority.
In the 1820 census James (b. 1793-1804) is shown living alone near his bro ther, Samuel [P28; b. 1790]. He was engaged in agriculture and wa s, as ye t, unmarried.
The 1830 census of Calais shows James (b. 1790-1800), his wife (b. 180 0- 10 ), and children: two boys born 1825-30 [Jones & Ebenezer], one gi rl bo rn 1 825-30 [Lydia]. They lived near his brother Samuel, and his co usin N ath an [P11; b. ca. 1790].
