Their eight children grew up in that town, and the sons received an equal share in the estate at their majority. Capt. Abraham was a man of not only indomitable courage and perseverance, but very eccentric. It is related of him - instead of cutting-out the underbrush to give himself a clear track to any part of the large tract which he desired to visit, he was accustomed to start his three yoke of oxen on a bee line for the desired locality, and crush through all obstructions. His children received a cup of tea once a week only, and that, upon Sunday morning. In later years, he erected the house in which he died, and of which an illustration is given as it appears in the History of Sutton. This volume refers to the Batchellers [sic] {AKA Batchelder} as a race of large strong men, and were good citizens. He is referred to in the records, as Capt. Abraham.
