BIOGRAPHY:Extracted from the above book: "Samuel dwelt in the paternal
homestead. When the Revolutionary War commenced he enlisted early in the
provincial forces assembling about Boston, to beseige the British foe. He was
ensign of Capt. Isaac HALL's company and fought at Bunker Hill Battle, June 17,
1775. This Corps, composed of men from Medford, Charlestown, Woburn, Malden,
Cambridge and Stonetown, enlisted for eight months service, was attached to
Col. Thomas GARDNER"s regiment, which was commissioned 2nd June. After the
British landed at Charlestown, preparatory to their first assault of the
redoubt, this regiment was stationed in the road leading to Lechmere's Point,
East Cambridge, and late in the day was ordered to Charlestown. On arriving at
Bunker Hill, Gen PUTNAM ordered part of it to assist in throwing up defences
commenced at this place. One Company (Capt. HARRIS's Charlestown) took post at
the rail fence. The greater part of the regiment, under the lead of their
colonel, on the third attack of the British, advanced towards the redoubt. On
the way, while descending Bunker Hill, Col GARDNER received his death-wound
from a flying bullet. The Provincials, just driven from their defences, were
hard pressed by the British; still GARDNER's men, under Major JACKSON, pressed
forward, and with three companies of WARD's and a part of GERRISH's regiment,
poured between Breed's and Bunker Hill, a well-directed fire upon the enemy,
and gallantly covered the retreat.
July 6, 1775, a regimental return mentions Samuel CUTTER, Ensign. The company
was then stationed in the lines on Prospect Hill. Capt. HALL and the
Lieutenant, Caleb BROOKS, were residents of Medford. Hall resigned charge
before the close of the year, Lieut. BROOKS was chosen captain, and Ensign
CUTTER became Lieutenant in his stead.
June l, 1778, mention occurs in a legal instrument of Samuel CUTTER, Gent.
April 2, 1791, while ascending the eastern slope of Winter Hill, in Somerville,
on his way home in a cart with a barrel of tar, an accident to his conveyance
threw him headlong from his seat into the road, the heavy tar falling upon him,
and he was instantly killed. His epitaph at Arlington commemorates his end as
follows:` IN MEMORY OF MR. SAMUEL CUTTER WHO DEPARTED THIS LIFE APRIL 7th,
1791, Aged 55 years. A sov'reign God, who set my bounds, Did quickly take my
breath, Be ready then each hour you live to meet an instant death.'"

BIRTH-MARRIAGE-DEATH:Extracted from the FHC Anc.File and IGI and "The CUTTER

by David CLAPP and Son, 1871, revised and enlarged by William Richard CUTTER,
film 928524, Item 1, Book 929.273 C981c.p. (55-76)"..Ammi Ruhamah, baptized at Cambridge, May 6, 1705, was a student of
Harvard College when his father died (1723) and his parent bequeathed
him the houseplot in Cambridge.....and provided suitable maintenance for
his education in the "schools of learning" until he received his "second
degree in the Colledge." He gave him also a young horse, "fit for
riding," when he commenced "Master;". Graduating from college in 1725,
he pursued for a while the vocation of land-surveyer. Nov 26, 1727, he
was admitted to full membership in Cambridge church, being styled in the
records as "Sir Cutter" a title applied to all graduated during the
interval between making their first and their second or Master's degree.In 1727 the trustees and proprietors of North Yarmouth, Maine,.....the
erection of a convenient house for the "public worship of God" and the
provision of "a good orthodox minister" claimed early consideration.
Ammi Ruhamah Cutter, as candidate, preached his first sermon, Sunday,
Nov 10, 1729; and became the first settled minister of the town.
....at a meeting of the Inhabitants of North Yarmouth April 24, 1730
voted to give the Rev. Cutter a Call to the Gospel Ministry of the town
of North Yarmouth. Nov 18, 1730, the organization of the church was
effected by the Rev. Mr. Cutter......the church thus organized was the
tenth church in Maine and on the same day.....Rev. Cutter was
ordained.......in addition to these difficulties (church problems) his creed
became offensive and in August, 1735, the neighboring clergy in council
at North Yarmouth gave decisions which led eventually to his dismissal.
Before his dismissal he married Dorothy Bradbury, sister of Mr. Moses
Bradbury, an early inhabitant of the town and originally from
Newburyport. While at North Yarmouth he took a prominent part in all
public transactions. His graceful chirography was highly appreciated and
frequently employed in writing deeds and other instruments (his sig. is
included in this chapter). In 1741(?) he was the town's agent in the
General Court of Massachusetts. In 1742 he was appointed superintendent
of a trading house for the Indians. Three of these stations had been
established in Maine. That superintended by Mr. Cutter was on the Saco
river almost nine miles from its mouth. .....the Savages on the east of
Saco River could not understand the language of those further west
within New England. None of the words in their dialect are found in
Elliot's Bible. In order to conduct his business with the Indians, which
were altogether of the Pickwocket and _________? tribes, Mr. Cutter
"composed a Vocabulary which yet remains.He was captain of a company in Sir William Pepperell's expedition for
the reduction of Louisburg. His command was attachedd to Col. Jeremiah
Moulton's regiment from York County. March 24, 1745, the American fleet
left Boston and on April 4th reached Canso. A military depot was
established and a block house with eight can____ erected. On April 14th,
Capt Cutter with two companies was detailed to "keep possession". April
29th, the whole fleet sailed from Canso for Cape Breton. June 16, 1745,
Louisburg capitulated. The success of this New England expedition sent a
shout of joy through the whole British Empire.After the capture some the troops were persuaded by an increase of wages
to abide at Louisburg, others were detained by reason of the dysentery,
and some returned home sick. The winter following the surrender Capt.
Cutter was detailed to remain as surgeon and chief commandant of the
fortress. He died at Louisburg in March 1746, a victim probably to the
general contagion. August, 1746, Capt. Benjamin Morgridge of Kittery,
arrived at North Yarmouth, having in charge the papers and effects of
Capt. Cutter, the news of whose death had before reached his friends.
The "ministerial house" where his family resided was built at the
"committee's charge." The house lot reserved for the "first settled
minister of five years continuance" Mr. Cutter had retained. Mrs. Cutter
possessed much of her husband's activity and enterprise, and so exalted
a character that her memory is held in the highest veneration by her
descendants to the present time. She died in North Yarmouth, June 7,
1776,aged 68 years.The eldest of her issue--"a person of rare ability, comprehensive views
and extensive literary acquirements; of winning address, combined with
dignity; who had the respect of love of a large community to an unusual
degree" was that physician of distinguised professional reputation, Dr.
Ammi Ruhamah Cutter, of Portsmouth...."
Ammi married Dorothy Bradbury on 23 Apr 1736. Dorothy died on 17 Jun 1776 in North Yarmouth, Me.

BIOGRAPHY:"Was a private solder in Capt. SPIKEMAN's company, serving in Nova
Scotia in 1755. The master rolls of this company contain the names of several
inhabitants of Lexington, where Nathan probably resided.
He was a `housewright' by trade. He married wife Hannah, and removed to New
Ipswich, NH, where his name appeared in the minister's rate for 1763, the first
tax levied in that town. This assessment was `on silver at 2& 5s. per
dollar, as they were set or valued in the Massachusetts Provinces in the
currency of the said Province' and his portion amounted to 5& 16s. 3d.
He settled on `lot 28' adjoining the farm of his brother John and afterward
removed to the place known as `CUTTER's Lane', where he dwelt until his death.
It is probable he disposed of the former location to his brother previous
to the change, and that this estate was occupied by John's son, Joseph
CUTTER, before the latter's departure for Jaffry.
Nathan's grave at New Ipswich is situated about three rods west of his
brother John's, and is marked with a similar stone inscribed: Here Lyes
Buried the Body of Mr. Nathan CUTTER Who departed this Life March ye 6th
1778 in the 43rd year of his age."(above book)Nathan married Hannah.
