Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Diary of Captain Samuel Jenks: During the French and Indian War 1760 At a meeting of the Massachusetts Historical Society, held March 13, 1890, the Rev. Henry F. Jenks communicated a diary kept in 1760, during the French and Indian War, by his great-grandfather, Capt. Samuel Jenks, which covers the same period as the diary of Sergeant David Holden, already printed by the Society. Samuel Jenks was born in Lynn, Mass., March 12, 1732. He learned his trade (that of a blacksmith) from his father, and wrought at it successively in Chelsea (on Point Shirley), - where the journal following shows that he was residing in 1760, when he started on the campaign which it records, and in Medford, Newton, - where his son William (H. C. 1797, and member of our Society for many years) was born, - and in Boston. In the "Boston Directory" of 1789, the first published, his name appears, - "Jenks, Samuel and Son, blacksmiths and bellows makers, at the sign of the bellows, Gardner´s Wharf, Ann Street"; and in that of 1796, which appears to have been the next one published, his residence is given on Cross Street, where he was known to have been living in 1787, when the same son entered the Boston Latin School. He died at Cambridge, June 8, 1801. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
