etter from John H Dillingham of Philadelphia 4 mo 6 1895 to Dean Dudley "The only brother of my grandfather Joseph that I have heard of was Edward, who moved from W. Falmouth to Maine; perhaps to St Albans, as his children had homes there." From John H Dillingham 4 month 16 1895 to Dean Dudly: "I have heard an old West Falmouth resident say that the day my great uncle Edward was to have sailed with his family for Maine the wind was unfavorable and so he loaded and hauled away 23 loads of manure. His sons James, Nathan and Allen and daughter Mary Ann (perhaps there were other children) had their early home in St Albans. I knew Nathan, lived for a time with Allen when he was a dentist in Cambridge (now gone to California) and frequently saw Mary Ann after her marriage with Barnabas Holway in Sandwich." From A W Dillingham, in Dudley’s ms page 52
