Bio of (son) James Fordyce Bailey (http://www.rootsweb.com/~iapowesh/Powbios2.html): "His father, one of the early settlers of Westmoreland, was a prosperous farmer and took an active part in public affairs. The paternal grandparents of our subject were James and Lucy (Gay) Bailey, who lived in Lebanon, Connecticut. During the Revolutionary war the grandfather acted as a guard for a few days. The grandmother lived to attain the age of ninety-two years. Mr. Bailey of this review was descended from John Bailey, who came from Chippenham, England, being shipwrecked at Pemaquid (now Bristol), Maine in the great storm on the 15th of August, 1635. He settled first at Newbury, Massachusetts, and in 1639 became one of the founders of Salisbury, Massachusetts."
