born 1816 to 1818, depending on source. Possibly the son of Samuel and Olive, born in Derby Line, but that could not be confirmed.

"As a dealer in oysters throughout this region in the days (thirty or forty years ago) when the only oysters bought were 'keg oysters,'; as an old stage driver, before the railroads destroyed the stage lines, and as a resident of Burlington for the past twenty-five years, Mr. Dorr had a wide acquaintance, and was reputed by all as a kindly and honest man, who minded his own business and would never knowingly wrong another."
