                   A little about Nathan Tefft
Judge Nathan Tefft, son of John  Tefft, was born in South Kings Town, Rhode Island, March 14, 1717. He moved from Rhode Island to Albany in 1766, and from there to Washington county, New York, traveling on horseback. He passed through trackless forests, being guided by marks cut on the trees, passing through Petersburg Valley as far as Cambridge, and from there across to Washington county. His son Stanton, a surveyor, accompanied him and laid out the tract of land now embracing the Rogers', Collamer's, Richardson's, Parker's, Babcock's, and Tefft's farms. One year later Nathan brought his family to Galesville, New York, and built there a sawmill, the first one on the Batten Kill. In 1763 and 1764 he was justice of the court of common pleas for Kings county. He was lieutenant of the Third Company militia, Colonel Pendleton's regiment, in 1750 and 1753; he was captain in 1753 and 1754. Judge Nathan Tefft married (first) September 16, 1742, Isabel Stanton, born August 13, 1716, died 1777. He married (second) E. Dareis (Dorcas) Sheldon, who survived him but a short time. He died April 3,1789.
