LANDMARKS:  Kelley’s Springs

NAMES:  EVANS, Nathaniel; EVANS, Samuel; KIELLE (KELLEY), Benjamin; 

	Kelley’s Springs.  This name is now given to Barbadoes springs, which supply the 
Dover aqueduct with water.  They are southeast of Barbadoes pond, and originally 
belonged in part to the Evans family.  Samuel and Nathaniel Evans, Dec. 22, 1812, 
conveyed to Benjamin Kielle 24 ¼ acres of land in that part of Dover called Littleworth, 
on the southerly side of the road from Dover to Barrington, "commonly known by the 
name of the spring pasture."  This pasture is said to contain scores of springs.  The old 
name of Kielle is now written Kelley.
