"The father of Hon. John Meacham settled in Fairhaven, where he reared a large family, struggling with poverty. Judge M. served an apprenticeship at the nailing business; but soon after he became of age, he engaged in the mercantile business; first in company with Ebenezer Langdon, Esq., - afterward with James Adams, Esq. His business prospered, and he acquired what was considered a handsome fortune for the times. Various offices of trust were conferred upon him. He was trustee of the Grammar-school, town treasurer, town representative, and judge of probate. His first wife was Mary Langdon, by whom he had his only surviving daughter, Mrs. Hiram Ainsworth, who now occupies the old homestead. Mr. Meacham was born in Williamstown, Mass., in 1776, and died in 1848."
