In memory of Mrs. Phebe Hamblen, wife of Mr. Lewis Hamblen, who died Sept. 20, 1818, aged 76.
'I lay my body in the dust
In hope to rise among the just.' 44
Capt. Lewis HAMBLEN, 5 (Bro. of Nathaniel) (Lewis, 4; Ebenezer, 3; James 2,1)
b. Lebanon, Ct., Dec. 19, 1743; m. Oct. 16, 1766, Phebe Harding, b. Wellfleet, Mass., 1742. He removed in childhood with his parents back to Barnstable from whence they came; and with his widowed mother and family to Wellfleet, May, 1763. See sketch of his brother Nathaniel. He was drafted from Wellfleet to serve in the Continental army, but paid a fine: report dated Sept. 8, 1777. Prior to 1779 he settled on land now in Hampden, Me. During
the disasterous "Bagaduce Expedition" on the Penobscot river, August, 1779, the British fleet pursued the settlers up the river from their homes; Lewis Hamblen and wife were then driven from their home and made their way on foot through the wilderness to the Kennebec river; thence back to Wellfleet, where he became a leader in town and church affairs; and his brother Perez took possession of the Hampden lands; selectman, 1787-1800; town clerk, 1801-8: treasurer twelve years; Master of Adams Lodge, A. F. & A. M., 1799, 1800 and
1809. The will of Lewis Hamblen, of Wellfleet, Gentleman, dated Dec. 30, 1807 names wife Phebe: to whom he gave his personal estate, and the use of his real estate during her life, with power to sell and convey the same, if necessary for her support: and remainder to his nephews, Lewis, son of his brother Nathaniel, and Lewis, son of his brother Perez. Inventory, Mar. 22, 1810; real estate, $1456.00; personal, $1813.30. Mr. Josiah Whitman of East Bridgewater, Mass., wrote, 1845, that he formerly lived in Wellfleet, and that he sold the land, of Lewis Hamblen for the heirs in Maine; and that the widow of Lewis willed her
estate to her brother Nathan Harding. Both d. Wellfleet: he Feb. 9, 1810; she Sept. 20, 1818.
