"The Quakers, whose history is filled with incidents of tragic interest, also helped settle this historic Maine town. John BARKER, with his sons Carr, Caleb and John, came to the Kennebec from Hanover, Massachusetts, probably as early as 1728, and their descendants, numerous in the vicinity, are scattered from Aroostook County in the east to Washington territory (or rather state) in the west. They were originally workers in iron, or blacksmiths. They built a vessel in a creek which empties into the Eastern river, above the village of Dresden Mills, long before there was a custom house in Bath or Wiscasset to register her, and she was lost on a trip to Boston, but of this records cannot now be found"
