Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Collections and Proceedings of the Maine Historical Society, Vol. 8 For two centuries and a half the name of Cutts has been a prominent one in the annals of Maine. Those who brought this name to our shores came from England about the middle of the seventeenth century. John and Richard, both in their young manhood, settled at Strawberry Bank, now Portsmouth, near the mouth of the Piscataqua, prior to 1646. Bringing with them capital to some extent, they became leading merchants and at length the wealthiest men in the colony. John was made a member of the Council for the government of the Province, and in 1679, by royal appointment, he became the first president of the Province. Robert Cutts, a brother of John and Richard, came to the Piscataqua a few years later. For a while he resided in Portsmouth, in the Great House which had been the residence of Richard Cutts, but which was originally built by the first settlers as the manor house of John Mason, the grantee of the Province.
