SEWALL, Samuel, jurist, was born in Boston, Mass., Dec. 11, 1757; son of Samuel and Elizabeth (Quincy) Sewall; and grandson of Joseph (q.v.) and Elizabeth (Walley) Sewall, and of Edmund Quincy. He was graduated from Harvard college, A.B., 1776, A.M., 1779, and practised law in Marblehead, Mass. He was a representative in the state legislature for several terms and a representative from Massachusetts in the 5th and 6th congresses, 1797-1801; a judge of the supreme court of Massachusetts, 1801-13; and chief justice, 1813-14. He was a member of the electoral college of 1801 from the 2d Massachusetts district. The honorary degree of LL.D. was conferred on him by Harvard in 1808. He was a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He died in Wiscasset, Me., June 8, 1814. 

Samuel Sewall, LL. D., A. A. S., the eldest son of Samuel and Elizabeth Sewall, was born Dec. 11, 1757. He was graduated at Harvard College; studied law, and began practice at Marblehead. He soon became eminent in his profession. He was a member of the State Legislature; Judge of the Superior Court, from 1800 till 1813; and in 1814 was appointed Chief Justice, in which year he died. He married Abigail, daughter of Dr. Humphrey Devereaux of Marblehead. Their children were: Samuel (minister at Marblehead), married Martha Marrett; Henry Devereaux, married Mary Norton; Joseph H., died young; Lydia, married Samuel Greele; Anne Henchman; Joseph Henchman (Harv. Col.); Edmund Quincy, married Caroline Ward of Newton; Elizabeth Quincy, married Thomas R. Sewall; Charles Chauncy (Harv. Col., who became a minister), married Amy, daughter of William Peters, Esq., of Medfield.   The reasoning behind the naming of his son Charles.  Charles was named for the Rev. Charles Chauncy "Taking notice of the promising talents of Samuel Sewall, who, owing to family misfortunes, was in needy circumstances, he drew up a subscription paper to raise money to carry him through college, and heading it with his own name, put it in circulation.  This paper was subscribed by considerable number of the principle gentlemen of Boston and Cambridge.  By the help of funds raised this way he was enabled to obtain a liberal education." Excerpt from "Memorials of the Chauncys" page 55.

Rev. John Marrett, as we have seen, married Dec. 16, 1779, Martha Jones. She died Sept. 11, 1803. They had two children:

1. Infant6 son, born June 16, Sunday, 1782. He lived about three hours.

2. MARTHA6 MARRETT, (John,5 Amos and Mary4 D., Henry,3 Jonathan,2 Henry,1) born Nov. 2, Sunday, 1783. She is often called by her father "little Patty." She was an object of tender solicitude, being the only daughter and surviving child. She married Jan. 1, 1818, Samuel Sewall, son of Chief Justice Samuel Sewall and Abigail Devereux. He was born at Marblehead, June 1, 1785, graduated at Harvard College 1804, was settled at Burlington, Mass., (over the 2nd Church in Woburn, as formerly known--Burlington was incorporated 1799), April 13, 1814, where he preached until 1842. He preached several years afterwards as a supply for the society in North Woburn, where he organized a church. He wrote for the American Quarterly Register, in 1838, "A complete list of the churches and ministers of Middlesex * * *" making, in many cases, a history of the churches and their usages. He was distinguished as an antiquary. He deciphered the "Balehoult" Letter, before referred to. He also wrote the History of Woburn, which was his last work. It was in the hands of the printer at the time of his death, Feb. 18, 1868, aged 82 years, 8 months and 17 days. His wife, Martha,6 died March 26, 1860, aged 75 years, 4 months and 25 days.

Page 97

They are buried at the new cemetery in Burlington.

They had three children:

(i) SAMUEL7 SEWALL, (Samuel and Patty6 (Marrett,5) Amos and Mary4 D., Henry,3 Jonathan,2 Henry,1) born Nov. 29, baptized Dec. 26, 1819. He resides on the old Jones, Marrett, and Sewall parsonage, which he has improved by additions and adornments since those of his Grandfather Marrett. With commendable regard for the memory of his ancestors, he has left untouched by the barbarism called modern architecture, that "best room," where Hancock and Adams were disappointed of their "savory breakfast," and where some of these memoranda were written. Its walls are adorned with the painted portraits of Chief Justice Sewall and other worthies, carrying one back to old times when ministers were not ashamed to walk to meeting on Rackets. Those magnificent elm and chestnut trees, four feet in diameter, which adorn the lawn in front of the house, were mere saplings when Rev. John Marrett first visited his "lady love." On one of those occasions, he tied his horse to one of them. Perceiving this, Mr. Jones' colored servant removed it to a more proper place, and, with a native politeness known only to his race, announced: "I'se fetched the gemmans horse and hitched him where folks allers put um, cause he'd eat up the trees me & Massa planted." Faithful and considerate man, he appears to have been the trusted executive of the estate after Mr. Jones' death. Honorable mention is often made of him in Mr. Marrett's Diary. He now reposes in the adjacent cemetery, borne to his grave by the selectmen of Burlington, personally, as a mark of respect for him and the ministerial families he had served so long; and in the Family Bible it is written of him: "Cuff, the faithful Negro Servant of the above Thomas & Abigail [Jones] died April, 1813, having lived in the family about 60 years."

Mr. Sewall (Samuel) has been much in town business--the settlement of estates, and other trusts. He is now Clerk and Treasurer of the town of Burlington, and Justice of the Peace. To him we are indebted for much

information of the Marrett family. He married March 21, 1844, Elizabeth, daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth (Tuttle) Brown, of Billerica. She was born at Carlisle, Mass., Feb. 6, 1820. They are both members of the Congregational Church. They have two children, born at the old parsonage:

(1) SAMUEL8 BROWN SEWALL, (Samuel,7 Samuel,6 John5 Marrett, Amos and Mary4 D., Henry,3 Jonathan,2 Henry,1) born Aug. 17, 1846. He was clerk at Carter & Wiley's, druggists, Washington street, Boston. He is now in business for himself, as druggist and apothecary, Main street, corner of Oak, Charlestown, Mass. He married June 11, 1872, Louisa Elizabeth, daughter of T. F. Farrington, of Cambridge. They live in Cambridge.

(2) MARTHA8 ELIZABETH SEWALL, born Tuesday, May 18, 1858, is at school at Cambridge, boards with her brother. P. S. She graduated with distinguished honor, and is now, 1876, at her father's. She has been appointed as School Superintendent for the town of Burlington, although but eighteen years of age.

(ii) MARTHA7 SEWALL, daughter of Samuel and Martha (little Patty) Sewall, was born Oct. 31, baptized Nov. 1, 1823, married at Burlington, Nov. 26, 1861, Luther P. Martin, of Goffstown, N. H. He is a very successful teacher at Windsor Locks, Conn.
