• Notes

  History of Penobscot County, Maine 1882 Page 357 B. A. Haskell was one of the first settlers in Garland, a prominent man of the town. His business was that of a blacksmith, and he held the position of captain of militia previous to his death in 1869. His wife's maiden name was Rebecca Mayhew. Of their children four are still Iiving - -Susan H. (Clark), Garland; Frances K. (Mitchell), Minneapolis, Minnesota: Jacob M., Boston, and Andrew M. Andrew, the subject of this sketch, was born in Garland in 1819. At the age of fourteen he learned the trade of mason, and followed it for nine years. In 1842 he commenced the business of carriage-making and repairing, which he is still engaged in. For twenty-one years he held the office of Selectman in this town. He married Mary B. Sargent, of Belfast, and they have seven children. He was engaged in the Aroostook war; and in the years 1870-71 was a member of the State Legislature, proving himself a valuable addition to that body.
