His wife was the first woman to come to Braintree, and she received in consequence 100 acres of land from the proprietors. Samuel BASS was the next of the sturdy pioneers of this town to arrive. He settled here about the last week in May, 1785, and built a log cabin, in. which he lived for a time, when he erected a more commodious frame structure. His son Hiram was the first child born in the town, and received from the proprietors 100 acres of land. Jacob and Samuel SPEAR were among the next early settlers. They came from Braintree, Mass. Jacob was the principal agent in procuring the charter, and in honor of him, it is said, the town was named after his first residence. Nathaniel SPEAR, from the same place, came to Braintree in 1790, and three years later built a saw-mill on Spear's brook. About the same time, or sooner, Isaac NICHOLS, Henry BRACKETT, John HUTCHINSON, Maj. William FORD, Ebenezer WHITE, and others, became residents of Braintree. All were prominent, substantial men.
