Families of the Children of Nathan5 Washburn and Mary Mahurin

 

         The families of the children of Nathan Washburn and Mary Mahurin are a little more challenging than most because of the general lack of records created by them, so this section will be a work in progress for some years. Son Hugh Washburn remained in Easton, Massachusetts, but son Robert moved to New Salem, Massachusetts, and son Salathiel moved to Westmoreland, New Hampshire, and then to Vermont. Several of these families are not yet complete and will be added to as new information is discovered.

                I Joseph Stone, depose and say that I was personally acquainted with Elisabeth Washburn, of Hardwick in the County of Worcester, during the last few years of her life. Said Elisabeth was the Widow of Robert Washburn deceased, who was a Soldier in the army of the Revolution, and She died at said Hardwick on the 12th day of Sept. AD. 1847.

                Said Elisabeth is known to have had three children who survived her, to wit, Hannah, Unmarried, belonging in said Hardwick, and Joseph who resides in Orange, Mass., and Levi who resides in Oakham, Mass., and she is supposed to have a married daughter living in Bloomingdale, Illinois, and another married daughter living in Shelden, Vt.

                Said Elisabeth was entitled to a pension from the United States, under act of June 17th 1844, of $40 per annum, on account of the revolutionary services of her said Husband Robert Washburn; and at the time of her decease, said pension was due her from March 4th 1847; and further this Deponent Lieth not,

                                As this particular phraseology seems to be required, I have thought best to make a new deposition which I forward herewith, and I also enclose some Memoranda given me by Mr. Bulfinch the pension Clerk.

                                If you will make a new Certificate the Bearer will pay what you demand.

                Please hand the Bearer my appointment &c and you will greatly oblige
