• Notes

  May 31, 1737, James Folsom, of Exeter, glazier, was made guardian of Nicholas Calley, of Stratham (s/o Richard), a minor aged less than 14 years. Besides being a "glazier" he owned various pieces of land and no doubt farmed to some extent. His home stood on Main Street, near the present George W. Lamprey house. It was described by Mr. B. F. Swasey in his "Notes on Early Exeter," as he remembered it, "as a large two-story house." It was probably built around 1736 , and after passing through various ownerships (traced by deeds) was demolished several years ago.
