Named in the 1897 county history

The history of Essex County was published 11 years after the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

Capt. Thomas Harvey was chosen representative in May and in October Left. Jolm Koot was chosen for the remainder of the year. No record of his death is found, but it is very probable that he diid during the summer, which occasioned the elcclion of Left. Foot. He first appears on the record as one of a committee on highways in 1689 and was chosen deputy in 1690, 1694, 1697, 1699, 1706, 1708, 1 713 and 1714, and was on the board of selectmen in 1701 and 1714. Heheld various other offices and was a ship carpenter, building vessels at Jainaco on land granted him in 1710 by the town. ITie Harveys owned a large tract of land near the Universalist church at West Amesbury, where they probably lived, and also a mill on Cobbler's brook.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Essex County, Massachusetts, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
