Narrative

[Brøderbund WFT Vol. 3, Ed. 1, Tree #6300, Date of Import: Sep 11, 1998]

Taken from "Sketches of Town of Leicester 1826 by E. Washburn."

Manufacture of cloth was commenced here by Mr. Samuel Watson in 1814, about one and a half miles east of the Meeting House on the "Kettle Brook." His establishment was small however and the business soon after was unproductive. He was induced to part with it for a few years.
Donations for Leicester Academy were given by Captain William Watson and Samuel Watson.
