ASSESSMENT OF THE TOWNSHIP OF HALLOWELL FOR

THE YEAR 1808.

Commencing the 7th March, 1808, and ending the 6th March, 1809.

The following, copied from an old Hallowell assessment list,
cannot fail to impress readers, especially young readers, of
to-day. The very names must be dear to all who are
descendants of tbe former landholders, while the proportions of
cleared and uncleared land at the date of the assessment should
prove of considerable interest.

In addition to the figures here copied the roll contains
columns headed houses; round logs; square timber, one storey and fire-places;
square timber, two storeys and fire-places; framed, under two storeys;
brick or stone, one storey, with fire-places; grist mill, run by
water, and additional pair of stones; wind mill; saw mill;
merchant shop; store houses; horses ; oxen; cows; cattle;
swine; stills ; billiard tables; vessels of eight tons, etc.
There were 101 round log houses, 3 of square timber, 28 framed
under two storeys, 1 brick or stone, 1 saw mill, 2 merchant shops,
146 horses, 105 oxen, 384 cows, 5 cattle, 90 swine, no stills,
no billiard tables, no boats of eight tons, and no wind mills.

Isaac Garrett, Aaron White, Thos. Bowerman, Henry Young, Arthur Elsworth
and another Harry Young had four horses each, all the rest fewer,
Widow Dugal and Silas Hill had each two yoke of oxen, but the widow
had also a span of horses, while Silas had none. Ten cattle and
six cows were owned by Thomas Bowerman, and these, with a yoke
of oxen, four horses, and two swine made him the largest stock
owner in the township.

Among the largest landholders were Gideon Bowerman, with 1,500 acres;
Ebenezar Washburn, with 1,150; James Blakely, with 1,740;
Barret Dyer, with 1,900, and Silas Hill, with 955 acres.
