    "Samuel Melendy was an early settler on the farm now owned by Charles A. Squires, on road 16. He was a soldier in the Revolutionary war and was taken prisoner by the Tories, who took all his stock, except one calf, which one of his boys succeeded in withholding from them. He married Sarah Gale, by whom he had eleven children, all of whom grew to maturity. He died Sept. 20, 1813, aged seventy-two years, and his wife, March 30, 1832, aged eighty-two."
