[25139] OneWorldTree on Ancestry. com in 2006 (not verified) provides his information and genealogy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moreton_Corbet_castle offers: "In 1086 two Anglo Saxon thegns, Hunning and Wulfgeat, were living at Moreton Corbet. Perhaps they had a fortified structure here. By the early thirteenth century they had been replaced by another Englishman, Toret. His descendant Peter Toret was lord of Moreton Corbet by 1166 and it is likely that he was living in the castle. In February 1216 William Marshall stormed Moreton Corbet castle on behalf of King John of England against Bartholomew Toret. At this time the castle was known as Moreton Toret Castle. In 1235 Bartholomew died and Richard de Corbet, his son-in-law, inherited the castle and changed its name to Moreton Corbet."

[58166] "The Bangor Daily News [Bangor, Maine]," 11 July 2021: "Newburgh - Melville 'Mel' Elgin Nickerson, 90, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family. His family sat vigil with him for the week prior to his death on July 9, 2021. Mel was born to Roger Nickerson and Vivian Emerson Nickerson in Hampden, Maine, on August 17, 1930. Mel was a jack-of-all-trades, a generalist who could repair virtually anything. He worked as a farm hand in his early years, transitioning to electric motor rewinding for Higgins Electrical and AC Electric. Mel ultimately worked as a sole proprietor mowing lawns, washing windows and sharpening saw blades. Mel was an avid outdoorsman, a member of the Maine Coon Cub, and snowmobiler in his younger years and more recently, Mel was actively engaged in the Maine Antique Tractor Club for 24 years. He is survived by his beloved wife of 71 years, Donna; younger brother, Robert Nickerson and his wife, Bonnie, of Richmond, Virginia; five children, Larry Nickerson and his wife, Deborah, of Newburgh, Maine, Sharon Filipowicz and her husband, Stephen, of Amarillo, Texas, Paula Frank and her partner, Wayne Gregory, of Belfast, Maine, Linda Leach and her husband, Tom, of Orland Maine, and Joyce Deal and her husband, Jean, of Glassboro, New Jersey; ten grandchildren, fifteen great-grandchildren, two great-great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents; his brother, James Nickerson; his sister, Louise and her husband, Creighton; and his sister, Shirley. At Mel's request, his ashes will be interred in the Locust Grove Cemetery, along with his wife's ashes upon her passing."

[46086] "Biographical review : containing life sketches of leading citizens of Somerset, Piscataquis, Hancock, Washington, and Aroostook counties, Maine (1898)", pp. 201-202: "Captain George Wescott, a retired ship-master of Castine, Han cock County, was born upon his present farm, August 27, 1830, son of Captain Joseph and Sarah (Dyer) Wescott: This farm was originally cleared from the wilder-ness by William Wescott, the great-grandfather of Captain Wescott. William, a native of York, Me., came here as a pioneer, and bought a tract of two hundred and fifty acres when settlers were few and game abundant, while the only means of transportation was by water, and a tribe of Indians inhabited the neighborhood. Upon a site about ten rods distant from Bagaduce Point he built a dwelling that was his home for the rest of his life. He married Elizabeth Perkins, a daughter of a neighboring settler. Joseph Wescott, son of William and a na-tive of Castine, for some years followed the sea in the foreign trade: and he served in the War of 181 2 as Captain of a company. Having inherited the homestead, he built the present spacious residence, which is one of the best in town. He died in 1831, and was buried in the old family cemetery upon the farm. His wife was before marriage Lucy Stover, of Penobscot. Captain Joseph Wescott, the father, was born and reared at the homestead. Like most of the young men of his day, he took naturally to seafaring. In clue time he became a master mariner, and was engaged in the foreign trade for some years. After abandoning the sea he settled at the homestead, and built another house on the premises, which he occupied for the rest of his life. He lived to be eighty-three years old. He served as a Selectman for many years, and was one of the first abolitionists in Castine. Sarah, his wife, became the mother of eight children, five of whom are living, namely: George, the subject of this sketch; Mary W., who is now Mrs. Brooks; Clara Emerson; Frances Dyer; and Martha W. Wescott. George Wescott was educated in the common and high schools of Castine. Having begun to follow the sea at an early age, he worked his way aft to the quarterdeck, and subsequently commanded vessels engaged in the East India trade until his retirement in 1870. He served in the Civil War for one year as First Sergeant of Company I, Twenty-eighth Regiment, Maine Volunteers, with which he participated in the sieges of Port Hudson, Donaldsonville, and other engagements. Since he succeeded to the home farm, which contains one hundred and five acres, he has conducted it energetically. Recently he made some improvements in the old residence built by his grandfather. By his marriage with Mary Avery, Captain Wescott became the father of four children George F., Elisha D., Mary J., and Paul W. George F., who resides in Buffalo, N.Y., married Mary F. Bent, and has three children - Otis B., Mary E., and Marion. Elisha D., now residing in Portland, Me., married Josephine Crawford, and has one daughter, Ruth A. Paul W., also a resident of Port-land, married Annie C. Pennell, and has one son, Allen Wescott. Captain Wescott has served acceptably as a Selectman and a mem-ber of the School Board. Politically, he is a Republican, and his first Presidential vote was cast for J. C. Fremont in 1856. He is a comrade and Past Commander of Charles L. Stevens Post, No. 76, G. A. R."
