• Notes

  Timothy Waterhouse located himself on this cove above Freeman's Point probably soon after the year 1700.  He was also a tanner and shoemaker.  Here were his tan-pits, and his cultivated acres.  His connection with the town was by the river.  His wife was Miss Moses.  Their children were three sons--John, Joseph and Timothy; and six daughters,--Margaret, Mary, Ruth, Sarah, Elizabeth and Lydia.  The parents had the ability to instruct their children, and they gave them a better education at home than girls generally received in that day.  John settled in Barrington.  Joseph settled in some town in Maine, and Timothy removed to Rhode Island, where he became one of the Royal Council.  Timothy had eleven sons; among them was the celebrated Dr. Benjamin Waterhouse, a Professor at Cambridge, and the father of vaccination in this country.  [His own son in the year 1800 was successfully vaccinated for the kine pox by him,--the first experiment made in this country.]
