CARTLAND
John Cartland, born in Scotland, came to America early in the eighteenth 
century, and settled in what was then Dover, now Durham, N.H. A grandson of his, 
named Pelatiah Cartland, born Dec. 14, 1746, in Lee, N.H., the son of Joseph and 
Lydia (Allen) Cartland, came to Parsonsfield in 1798 and settled in what is now 
known as the Cartland neighborhood, near East Parsonsfield. He was married in 
1777 to Anna Hanson, and died May 1, 1830. His wife died April 10, 1849. Their 
children were: Charles, Abigail and Silas. 

Charles,4 (Pelatiah,3 Joseph,2 John,1), b. March 27, 1778, in Lee, N.H.; m. 
Mariam [Miriam?] Robinson; settled in Parsonsfield; had ten children, viz.: 
Content, Anna, Joseph, John, Stephen, Charles, Cyrus, Isaiah, Lydia, Abbie, all 
born between 1815 and 1834. Charles Cartland died March 20, 1839. 

Silas Cartland, brother of Charles, b. March 19, 1798; m. Anna Brackett; had 
seven children, viz.: Asa, John B., James, Silas H., Elizabeth, Anna H. and 
Joseph D. Only three are living, viz. : John B., James and Silas H. 

Most of the children of these two families joined the society of Friends, and 
most settled for a time in town. Abigail, the daughter of Pelatiah, married 
Benjamin Daltou (see page 330).
