Source:The Libby family in America, 1602-1881, p. 97: Farmer. Lived on part of his father's homestead until about 1788, and then settled in Cape Elizabeth on what is now known as the Palmer place. It is said that he had seventeen children by his one wife, but the names of only 15 can be learned. All his sons that grew up followed the sea. Scarcely anything is known of them individually. None except Edward had any children.
