I.,) dau. of Benjamin and Priscilla ( Waldron) Hoar, of Bristol, R. I. "Early in life he removed to Bristol, R. I., where he engaged in the manufacture of saddles, harness and trunks. Here, in 1815, he married Miss Nancy Hoar. Bristol not proving a satisfactory location he removed in 1829 to Newport, and the next year to Providence, where he established the same business. The increasing demand for his trunks induced him to abandon his other manufactures and to establish a manufactory of trunks. To this he applied his characteristic indomitable energy and thrift, coupled with a strict integrity, and soon took the lead in that branch of business. His manufactory was highly prosperous during his lifetime, and was left to his sons Thomas and William, who still carry it on at the same location. Mr. Breck was a genial and social companion, though of very decided opinions, and a devout member of the Episcopal Church."
