| "Robert Williams, who was the son-in-law of Caleb Wright, became possessed of a part of the Wright tract, and he, in fact, laid the foundation for the settlement by cutting his land into acre lots and selling to new arrivals for a modest consideration. Dr. Barstow bought a corner lot and opened a stock of goods in 1812, doing a general trading business in connection with his medical practice. " |
