(11) III. William Odiorne, son of Jotham (3), born in 1710; died in 1798. He lived at Durham, N.H.; was a justice of the peace, and commissioner under the royal

government for the protection of the forests; was also engaged in ship-building. He was regarded as a gentleman of intelligence, sound judgment, and energy of character. He possessed a high tone of moral feeling, and enjoyed the entire confidence of all persons with whom he had to do.

At one period he possessed a handsome property; and his transactions in real estate were extensive. His conveyances on record appear to be more numerous than those of any other individual of that time. Late in life he met with losses from disasters at sea, and casualties of war, by which his property was much reduced. He lived, at different periods, in Portsmouth, Durham, Epsom, and New Market, N.H. Being of an active temperament, he continued in trade until advancing age compelled him to lay aside his cares and responsibilities. He then found a quiet home under the fond watchfulness and care of his children.

He died of apoplexy in Nottingham, N.H., at the house of his daughter Avis (Mrs. Bodge), in the winter of 1798-99, at the age of eighty-eight years, having attained to a greater age than any other individual mentioned in this work.

He married, first, Sarah, daughter of Capt. Samuel Hatch,

by whom he had sons : —

William (26).

Samuel (27). Married, second, Avis, daughter of Rev. Hugh Adams,1

1 Rev. Hugh Adams, a graduate of Harvard College in 1697, was settled over the Oyster Bay Parish, in Durham, N.H., from 1718 to 1739, and died in that town in 1750. He was a man of considerable talent and learning, of great wit, and of much independence and firmness of purpose ; but his influence was greatly impaired by his many eccentricities. " He often provoked the censure of his brethren in the ministry, and the members of his church, by his attachment to his own opinions and predilections." Some curious documents which illustrate his character may be seen in Farmer's and Moore's Historical Collections.

The writer of this went once to Durham to inspect the ancient

a celebrated and very eccentric clergyman of Durham, N.H. The children of this marriage were, —

Sarah (28).

Abigail (29).

Mehitable (30).

John (31).

Elizabeth (32).

Avis (33).
