Starting with line 12, Henry and Dorcas Bacon, both age 46 are living on the farm with their children David, Charles and Jane Bacon.  Dorcas' parents John and Rachel Carter also live with them.  Here, she seems to go by the name of "Jane."

In New Hampshire, the glass industry began to take shape during the American Revolution, [and] became the heart of the state’s industry. 


1855 

Marriage

Harvey and Mary Jane Bacon Scott Marriage Record


Married Harvey Scott on 2 January 1855 in Boscawen, Merrimack, New Hampshire.  Not much to see in this record.  So much information not written down by what I think of as a lazy clerk.  It must have been a cold wintery wedding.  Again, I wonder how did they meet?  By the way, in the Ancestry.com index, her husband is indexed as "Hanry" Scott.


1856 and 1860

First child, Marshal Winfield Scott born 11 October 1856 in Salisbury, Merrimack, New Hampshire
Second child, first daughter Adella Grace (aka Della) Scott was born 4 February 1860 in Salisbury, Merrimack, New Hampshire
