LANDMARKS: Gage's Point	

NAMES: GAGE, Col. John; HUBBARD,  Elizabeth (Roberts); ROBERTS, Thomas;
	CANNEY, Love; CANNEY, Mary;

	This name is given on Whitehouse's map of 1834, to a point at 
the mouth of the Cochecho on the west side.  It is derived from Col. John
Gage of Beverley, Mass., who came to Dover before 1725, and married Mrs. 
Elizabeth (Roberts) Hubbard, great-granddaughter of Thomas Roberts of the 
Dover Combination of 1640.  He acquired land below the mouth of the Cochecho,
on the west side, before Feb 12, 1742, on which day Love and Mary Canney 
confirmed to him all right to 70 acres in Dover, bounded southerly on 
Gage's land to the mouth of the Cochecho, westerly on said river to 
Thompson's Point, and northerly by said river to a place commonly called 
Long creek, etc.
