In the 1860 U.S. Census, Hiram G. Waterman, 45, born Maine, was living in Robbinston, Maine, with Mary J., 40, born Ireland; Mary E., 14; Alice, 13; Maria, 11; William W., 9; Effie, 6; Sarah, 4, all born in Maine.

Even with Amaziah's absence from Robbinston, his earlier actions were still causing trouble for Walter Vose and James Joyce. A lawsuit was filed against Vose and Joyce and Nash, by Hiram Waterman of Robbinston in the October term of 1856. The complaint of Mr. Waterman was, that Amaziah Nash refused to honor a note when presented to him by Mr. Waterman. On November 1, 1855, Nash had signed a promisory note for $260 worth of goods sold by Vose and Joyce. The terms were to pay the $260 plus interest on the seventh month from the date of signing. That same day, November 1st, Vose and Joyce signed the note over to Hiram Waterman for partial payment in a business deal they had entered. After seven months had passed, in fact on June 4, 1856, three days past the due date, Hiram presented the promisory note to Amaziah Nash for payment. Nash refused to pay on the grounds that he had signed a promise to Vose and Joyce and no other party. Mr. Waterman informed Vose and Joyce that they were now liable for the note, to which they protested. Waterman took all parties to court in October 1856, but when no one showed up, the case was continued until April 1857. At this court session, Amaziah appeared before the court and pled that he did not promise the plaintiff any money and asked for the court's mercy. The court struck Amaziah's name from the suit. The suit dragged on until the October term of 1860, when a jury found Vose and Joyce completely liable for the $260. A second trial, held on November 27, 1860, still found them liable, plus court costs [38]. ("How the Panic of 1857 Led Amaziah Nash to Bankruptcy" Donald H.W. Robbins)

In the 1850 U.S. Census, farmer Hyram G. Waterman, 34, born Maine, was living in Robbinston, Maine, with Mary J., 31, born Ireland; Mary E., 4; Alice B., 3; and Maria, 1, all born in Maine.
