Solomon Estey m. Hannah Leonard

Solomon was born 17 May 1744. Married Hannah Leonard (b 17 Jun 1748), daughter of Walley Leonard. From "The Esteys Of Old Stoughton" by Solomon Talbot, " Benjamin Estey died in 1744 and by his will his real estate descended to his two sons, Benjamin and Ebenezer. These children married and brought up families. The farm was divided between them. In the year 1765 Ebenezer Estey's buildings were struck by lightning and burned, and the Church at Canton raised for his assistance 30 pounds, 17 shillings. He died in 1769. After the death of Ebenezer his two sons, Solomon and Aaron, succeeded to his estate. The boys married sisters, Mary and Merideth, daughters of Walley Leonard of Canton. When the Lexington alarm occurred Solomon Estey was enrolled in Capt. Peter Talbot's company in Stoughton and was paid for 38 miles travel on the 19th of April 1775. He was in the Battle of Bunker Hill on the 17th of June the same year. At this time his wife with the wives of her neighbors who were in the army, hearing heavy cannonading and seeing the smoke of the burning Charlestown, gathered together in the school house, and with fearful foreboding spent the night watching and praying for the dear ones away in the battle, amid the fire and smoke that could be seen. After war he sold his soldiers certificates to the State of Massachusetts for lands in Maine and moved with his family to Farmington." Solomon and Hannah later moved to Albion, ME. Solomon was a member of the First Congregational Society in Winthrop.
