• Notes

  From a list of all male persons in Andover from sixteen years old that took oath of alegance February 11, 1678. Neither John Carlton nor his descendants for a hundred years appear in any prominent public connection, but the family in all its branches of descent has been of marked excellence and probity. The traces of the mare few in the public records, they having, as appears, lived remarkably free from litigation and complaints which have made some names conspicuous, and have served (if no other good) to preserve interesting facts of manners and customs. An epitaph on the gravestone of one of the family, perhaps sums up the character of the majority of the Carlton name: - "He was benevolent, just and peaceable with all." He was on a list of taxpayers in the town at the end of 50 years after settlement: - "A rate made for the minister in the year 1692 for the north end of the towne of Andover." John lived in a garrison house on Claypit Hill. The parlor part of the house was moved down from Claypit Hill. William Tucker bought out the place in 1817.
