Bangor Hist. Mag Vol VI states that ET was d. of Abraham T and Leah Mansell (p 84) "Records of Deeds in Lincoln Records"

I now beieve this is just wrong. The pension record for Abraham T, b 17476, a letter from his son Thomas is included which lists living siblings. Eleanor is not mentioned at a time she is certainky alive. The conclusion is that she must be d.of Rwuben, granddaughter of Abraham. See also the following:


However, there is also this (from a Message Board):

I took a trip recently to Maxfield Maine and Orono Maine. I found the following in the town records of Orono Maine:


Abraham Tourtellott Jr. b. 5 Jan 1795 Eleanor Tourtellott b. 27 Feb 1796 Joseph Tourtellott b. 5 Jan 1797 Amia (?) Tourtellott b. 19 Nov 1793 Nancy Tourtellott b. 14 Feb 1802 Rebecca Tourtellott b. 23 Mar 1806 Reuben Tourtellott Jr. b. 25 Jun 1807 Combs Tourtellott b. 1 Feb 1810 (Children of Reuben Tourtellott and Lucy Mansell)


Note also that in the Lowell, Penobscot, ME 1850 census, she is listed as being in the adjacent dwelling (with her husband J. Varney) to Warren Mcpheters, her son. She is listed as 54 yr in 1850.

Grave reads:

A household's tomb to Faith; how dear A part have gone, part linger here United all in love and hope; One household still Together we shall sleep Together may we rise And sing our morning hymn. One household still.
