| Notes |
- BIOGRAPHY: Samuel Hunt was the founder of Tewksbury, Massachusetts. According to town records of Concord, Massachusetts, the pastor of the local church died and a young new pastor was hired. At first the congregation thought that he had a speech impediment, but soon it was ascertained that he was imbibing of the spirits. Samuel Hunt had a license to sell liquor on Tuesdays in Concord. The congregation blamed Samuel and booted him out of the church. He was so angry that he moved five miles away and founded the town of Tewkesbury.
(It is alleged that there is a piece of Hunt furniture in the Concord museum.)
