Although not originally a Durham family yet for many years the Hascalls have been so largely identified with the best interests of the town, it seems fitting that a sketch of the family should be inserted here. Their progenitor, William Hascall, settled in Gloucester, Mass., about the middle of the 17th century, and from this place shoots from the family tree were transplanted into various parts of the country. Rev. Daniel Hascall, the father of Laurin, William, and Ralph, and their sister Mrs. E. P. Shailer, formerly of Portland, was born in Connecticut, but in early life went to New York State, where he was pastor of various Baptist Churches and was also largely instrumental in founding what is now known as Colgate University at Hamilton. William C. and Ralph H., his sons, made their home in Vermont until the year 1862, when they both moved to Durham. William purchased the old Jonathan C. Merrill place in the village. Ralph purchased the Secomb Jordan place adjoining William's. Laurin, after a long experience in New York and the West as an educator, came to Durham to spend his last days. He died in 1897 (?) Ralph H. and Celia Hascall had three children. The youngest died in boyhood; Frank resides in Durham, and Mary is the wife of Prof. E. W. Hall of Colby University. William C. and Finette had five sons: Of these Charles D. and James A. married in Vermont but settled in Durham. Charles afterward moved to Oregon, where he now resides. George H. married (1) a daughter of Richard Dyer, (2) a daughter of James Newell. He purchased the Jordan Dingley place on which he still resides. The next son, William H. Shailer went as a missionary to Burma in 1872 under the auspices of the A. B. Missionary Union where he remained for about eight years. He there married Miss Emma A. Chace, who had gone to Burma as a missionary of the Baptist Woman's Board. After they returned to this country they were for a time in Farmington, Me., he having the pastoral care of the Baptist Church in that village. When their health would permit they returned again to Burma where they remained about five years. After returning to America the second time they resided in Fall River, Mass., where he was assistant pastor of the First Baptist Church for over six years. They are now living in Dover, N.H., where he is pastor of the Central Ave. Baptist Church. R. Judson, the youngest of the five sons, married Rose, the daughter of George Nichols. He resided for a time in Durham and Auburn but is now engaged in business in Woodstock, N.B. Both Celia and Finette have entered into rest. The latter died 11 May 1886, aged 70 yrs. 3 mos. William C. married (2) Emily Knight. HASTY. Robert Hasty 3d was born in Scarboro 23 Nov. 1786; m. 30 Nov. 1814 Mrs. Esther (Libby) Meserve of Scarboro and moved to West Durham in 1833.

He has for more than a score of years been connected with the Patron's Cooperative Corporation, 209 Commercial St., Portland, Me., first as book keeper and later as agent.

Their son, Richard, b. 26 July 1666, married Elizabeth Jaques and had a son Henry b. 6 July 1697.
