Osterville Historical Society Museum


The Museum also owns two of the rare "hawk nest" half models, one in thehalf model room and one in the Herbert Crosby Shop. The hawk nest formwas used by boat builders for a brief period of time in the late 18th andearly 19th century. The Museum believes that the two on display probablycame from the Oliver Hinckley Yard, which was located at the end of BayStreet in Osterville at the same time these models were built. OliverHinckley built coastal schooners at the Bay Street location.

BIRTH: etc:
MARR#1: probably in the Rochester ME area abt 1818, but groom's parentshad
moved away from Rochester before Abigail was even born apparently.
Elnathan Sr's sister born Leverett MA 1794, brother 1795 Wardsboro VT,
and rest born Jamaica VT according to Mrs. Gaffney's book. (See her
second husband Lyman's notes here);
***************************************************************************
EVEN MORE CONFUSED: ROCHESTER, MAINE MAY NOT EXIST, BUT JUST BE ACONFUSION
FOR ROCHESTER, MASS. (Rochester not listed in fairly complete mainebooks);
***************************************************************************
KIDS: her first husband was Elnathan Coombs b. 25 May 1789 Rochester ME,son
of Simeon Coombs and Experience Miller;
see her husband Lyman for sources. The record speculates that Rochester
ME and Rochester MA are the same with boundary change after Am. Rev. War
but it doesn't seem aware that ME was part of MA until 1820, nor that
present day ME and MA are not contiguous--NH has always been between;
Abigail's kids by first marriage: Franklin b. ca 1819 maybe at Rochester
ME, then the twins born at Fairfax ME 16 May 1821 Mary and Minerva Data,
Elnathan Jun 1823/6 maybe at Natick MA, Edwin abt 1825, Caroline abt
1827, Frederick abt 1829, Nelson abt 1831; see Minerva's own record
in this file, Elnathan (JR) died 1877, Edwin died 15 Nov 1913;
Elnathan (Jr) married 1845 Elizabeth Gordon by Gen Sutter in old Sutter
Fort, presumably meaning Coloma,CA or wherever gold was discovered 1848;
