Interesting snippet from Wikipedia:

"In the nineteenth century, benefiting from a manufacturing boom following the establishment of some of the first planned industrial cities in the United States, nearby Lawrence and Lowell, Merrimac came to be known worldwide for its horse-drawn carriage industry. During this period, the town proper of Merrimac, centered around Merrimac Square, expanded separately from the village of Merrimacport. In 1876, Merrimac, including Merrimacport, separated from Amesbury and officially incorporated itself as a town."

** James could not have been born in 1873 in Illinois - that info seems to be in error
though there is absolutely no mistaking the census which shows James to be born in 1873 in Illinois and Hannah born in Indiana. Death dates of these 2 individuals is unknown.

Charles served as a Private in the Civil War - Company K, 3rd Massachusetts Infantry and claimed a pension in 1894. After the death of his wife Sophia, he married in 1886 [per 1900 census] in Ohio, wife Rosa who was born May 1858 in Ohio.
