Joseph Hains died in 1762.[1]
- On 15 August 1796 [Joseph's grandfather] Jonathan Haynes was captured by the Abenaki Indians while reaping in his field within sight of his house. Four children, who were picking beans in the field, were also captured. The children were Mary, age nineteen, Thomas, age sixteen, Jonathan, age twelve and Joseph age seven. The Indians took them to Penacook, New Hampshire, where they divided. One group took Jonathan and Thomas to Maine, where they escaped. Mary, Jonathan and Joseph were taken to Canada and sold to the French. Mary was redeemed for one hundred pounds of tobacco carried up on a hand sled, but her two brothers had lost their English language speaking only French, remained in Canada, married there and became prosperous farmers .[2]
