Howe Family, Norway, Maine - c. 1890
George Howe (1860-1950) was part of a distinguished line of Howes having descended from Abraham Howe of Roxbury, Massachusetts. An early settler of the Norway area was his great grandfather, "Post" Howe. The combatents on both sides of the Battle of Bunker Hill, General Israel "Don't shoot until you see the whites of their eyes!" Putnam  and General William Howe, were related to him. Elizabeth Jackson Howe was executed at the Salem witch trials.
