3ai THE HOWARD GENEALOGY.

There was no permanent settlement in the northern portion of Bridgewater until 1700. In 1737 Robert Howard and fifty- four others petitioned the legislature to incorporate them into a separate town. Jan. 3, 1738, they were granted an incorporation as a parish, by the name of the North Parish of Bridgewater. In 1821 the parish was incorporated as the town of North Bridge- water.

The following call for the first town meeting is of special interest to the Howard family, as the warrant was issued by

'Caleb Howard, Esq.

The following is an exact copy of the original, which is in the possession of one of Caleb Howard's grandchildren.

To Calib Howard, Esqr., one of the Justices of the piece for and within the County of Plymouth —
