    • A Genealogy of the Folsom Family by John Chapman

      He was probably not so successful in pecuniary matters as some of his younger brothers. He dealt some in lumber, and in 1667 promised a large quantity to Mr. Cutts, of Portsmouth. Being paid in advance, he mortgaged his land to secure the delivery of it. In Jan., 1692, he was appointed administrator upon the estate of "John & Mary Folsom both deceased." In the performance of this business, he provoked his brother, Dea. John, who in his passion, by violent language, exposed himself to prosecution for a violation of the law; but after some deliberation the trouble was amicably settled.
