Notes
Note N130Thomas Marean was born October 17, 1753, in Watertown, Massachusetts, and died in Maine February 24, 1829. He married Esther Patterson, also born in Watertown January 10, 1756, who died in Maine, August 15, 1832. They are buried in Maine Cemetery. Thomas Marean was a Private in Captain Amos Rathbun's Company, Lieut. Col. David Roseter's detachment of Militia; enlisted August 15, 1777, but there is no record of his service in previous years - notably October 1776 while at White Plains, New York."
This story we find in a "Bulletin of the Broome County Historical Society", dated November 1960. "In October 1776 Amos Patterson was at White Plains, when the armies were encamped within sight of each other. He and another soldier, Thomas Marean, managed to pass the British sentries one night and they went to a meadow in which British horses were pastured. They each took a fine horse on which they returned in safety to their own lines."
Amos Patterson and Thomas Marean were brothers-in-law, Thomas Marean having married Esther Patterson, a sister of Amos. In 1785 or 1786 Amos Patterson was one of eleven men, later enlarged to 60, who formed a Company interested in purchasing a large tract of land to the West, later known as "Boston Purchase". During the years of 1786 - 1791 Patterson spent most of his time in this part of New York State, excepting the winters. In 1793, after building a log cabin near the present Hooper area, he returned to Massachusetts for his family, and with them he brought his sister and her husband, Thomas Marean. Thus they are among the very first settlers in Broome County, and Marean settled in the town of Maine. ,"
