Nathaniel Hamlin,5 (Lewis, 4; Ebenezer, 3; James 2,1)
b. Lebeanon, Ct., Nov. 291741. A sketch of his life was prepared by his great grandson, the late Prof. Charles E. Hamlin; from which extracts hae been taken. In 1759, he assisted in building boats at Albany, N.Y, and perhaps at Lakes George and Champlain, for Gen. Amherst's expedition.
From May 2, 1760 to Jan. 15, 1761, he served as private in Capt. Bachariah Bassett's Co. of Chilmark, Mass. in Col. Nathaniel Thwing's Regt. and served in Nova Scotia. As one of the garrison who, under the direction of sappers and miners, sent out from England, blew up the fortifications of Louisburg, he participated in the demolition, which he used to describe: and which began June 2, 1760, was finished Oct. 8, or 17. He removed from Barnstable to Wellfleet, Mass. in May, 1763, probably because that place, largely engaged in fisheries, offered better opportunity for work on boats and fishing vessels. About that time the mother and younger children transferred their residence to Wellfleet; where the brothers, Nathaniel, Lewis and Perez were for some years boat builders. He m. Dec. 5, 1763, Sarah Baker, b. Wellfleet, Feb. 27, 1743. They were members of the church, Wellfleet. They removed to Shrewsbury, Mass., Oct. 14, 1772. He was drafted in the fall of 1776. to serve in the Rev. army, but having a family of five children, the eldest of whom was not eleven years old, he furnished a substitute. The certificate of that transaction reads:
"This may certify that Mr. Nathaniel Hamblin this day procured Mr.Benj. Baker to go into the servis at Horse Neck, in his name, and excepted by me,"
"Asa Rise, Cap'n,"
His eldest dau. Polly, in her old age used to tell of witnessing the passage of Burgoyne's army past her father's house in Shrewsbury, on the way from Saratoga, to Cambridge, Mass., in the fall of 1777. See described minutely, the peculiar dress and appearance of the Hessians. He removed to Oxford. Mass., April, 1778. where he bought land with buildings from Sylvanus Town: the deed specifying sixty live acres of upland and two parcels of meadow land, one of two acres, the other of two acres and forty five rods -- both known as part of "Bell's Meadow,"-- was signed by Town and his wife before witnesses on May 30, 1777: but was not acknowledged before the justice of the peace -- and therefore not delivered till Mar.30, 1778. Warrants still in existence show that, for 1783-4, he officiated in Oxford as collector of .state and town taxes.
He and his son Theophilus labored as house carpenters in Hallowell and Vassalboro. Me., during 1733-4. One of these jobs was that of finishing the interior of the town meeting house, in that part of Hallowell, then known as the "Fort Village." which became Augusta in 1797. Among his papers of this period is this receipt:
"Hallowell, 3 July, 1784"
"Rec'd on board sloop Hannah, from N. Hamlin, one hundred and one oars: which I promise to deliver to Capt. Edmund Hous of Boston, dangers of the sea excepted."'
"Samuel Howard."
Theophilus settled at the Fort Village, and his father returned to Oxford.
His sons and daughters gradually removed to Hallowell, now Augusta, and at last the parents with the youngest child, Lot, came in 1795. At Augusta he found exercise for his great mechanical skill and ingenuity, not only as a house wright. but in making wooden clocks, spinning wheels and sleighs; his clocks on which his name sometimes appeared as, N. Hamlin, found their way to distant parts of Maine: thus, late in 1799 he took a load of "Movements" to the Penobscot, where, in the house of his brother Perez, he made cases, and sold the completed clocks to the neighboring inhabitants. The infant son of the brother, born the preceeding July was named for the visiting uncle. In 1798 he bought the house built by his son-in-law, Isaac Carter, at the corner of Winthrop and State streets, Augusta. On the gable of this liouse was a large dial, attached to a clock, kept in operation as a sign of his business. He sold this house to Kennebec county, January, 1829; and upon the lot was erected the same year, the present granite court house. Throughout his long life he was highly respected for integrity and manliness. Both d. Sidney, Me.: he Jan. 19, 1834; she July 4, 1830.

The names are right, but there is no other information found to identify them.
Theory: these are Daniel Cole, b 1709 and widow Sarah (Baker) Swett, b 1717. Does not fit the Martha Rogers dates at all, though.
