MEMORIAL PHOTOS 2 FLOWERS 2 Lemuel's birth was recorded in Duxbury, but he was probably born in Pembroke, according to Mayflower Families in Progress. His parents were David and Hannah (MAGOUN) STANDISH. He and his first wife, Rachel (WINTER) JACKSON, had five children, all of whom lived to marry. If he and his second wife, (--) CRAWFORD, had children, they apparently did not survive. Lemuel was in Bath by 1775 and sold his home farm there to his son Lemuel, Jr. in 1822. (Bath was in Lincoln County at the time of Lemuel's death; Sagadahoc County was not incorporated until 1864.) He served in the Revolution, marching from Bridgewater, Massachusetts "in consequence of the alarm of the 19th of April, 1775."
