MT.
09 Feb. 1923:

Samuel Boynton Paige passed away on Saturday, February 3, 1923, at the home of his son, Bert Paige in Twin Bridges. So the Ruby valley loses one of its famous pioneers and a citizen of high honor, who came across the plains here 57 years ago.

Samuel Paige was born 82 years ago, on June 8, 1841 at Thornton, New Hampshire, and he lived at that place until he was 21 years old. The civil war called him into service and he went in 1862, down the Atlantic coast from New York to (where) he stationed on the Mississippi river, keeping ports open for union ships and soldiers. At the close of the war Mr. Paige joined a party that was making ready to bring two quartz mills to Montana. The journey was made with two trains, each having 20 teams of four yoke of oxen coming by way of the Bozeman trail and reaching Alder gulch in the fall of 1866. After working for two years in the vicinity of Virginia City, Mr. Paige moved into the Ruby Valley to establish a home in 1868. He has been engaged in farming and stock raising and has been identified with the development of western Montana, always for community welfare. He was a democrat in politics and served as county commissioner in the early eighties. At the time of his death he was commander of Frank Blair Post, G. A. R., at Virginia City, and a member of the I. O. O. F. Mr. Paige was married in 1869 to Minerva Taylor, who died in 1904. Of his four daughters and seven sons, three are dead. Those living are Ida of Salt Lake City, Alice of Twin Bridges, Bert of Twin Bridges, Oscar of Baker City, Ore., Wilbur, Warner, Charles and Henry of Ruby. His sisters surviving are Mrs. Arvilla J. Weeks of Laconia, N. H., Mrs. Azelia Bryant of Wolfsboro, N. H., and Mrs. Alice Eastman of Ruby, Mont. A number of grand children and great grandchildren also survive. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock and the interment was in Taylor cemetery. Rev. Wiley Mountjoy conducted the service at the family residence and the American Legion of the valley paid military honors at the grave.

Obituary: 
Lucinda Minerva Page was born on the 26th day of April, 1852, in what now forms the territory of Oklahoma. From there she removed with her parents to Salt Lake City, Utah, and from there to Virginia City, reaching Alder gulch on the 26th day of April, 1864 near which she has resided for the remainder of her life. On the 26th day of December, 1869, she was married to Mr. S. B. Page. They began housekeeping on the ranch which Mr. Page now occupies, and have lived there continuously with the exception of a short residence in Beaverhead county. On the 6th day of January, 1904, after an illness of but a few days, she departed this life. Mrs. Page was the mother of 11 children. Three of them have gone before her; eight are left with her husband to mourn her departure. Mrs. Page, the first to break the family circle, is survived by her aged mother and 11 brothers and sisters. William Taylor of the Ruby valley, a pioneer of Madison county, and her twin brother, has been her constant neighbor until separated by death's ruthless hand. Mrs. Page was one of the pioneers of Montana; at last she has crossed the great divide and has helped to blaze the trail into another land. During her lifetime she was a faithful and affectionate wife, a tender and devoted mother. The funeral rites were held at the home, interment taking place in the Taylor cemetery.

In October, 1674, a John Heriman and his wife "were convicted for fornication and confessing, were ordered to be whipped, he twenty stripes and she fifteen, or pay a fine of 81i". Such a charge usually meant the couple had a child less than or about seven months after marriage. No records of John's marriage or the birth of a child have been found.
Died in King Phillip's war on 18 Sep 1675 Bloody Brook, Deerfield, Massachusetts
Note: He was killed in the massacre at Muddy Brook,on Sept 18 1675.  Thereafter called Bloody Brook in King Philips War. 71 militia out of a force of 80 were killed by Native Americans."With Captain Thomas Lathrop's troops as reinforcements some fifty soldiers plus fifteen Pocumtuck teamsters, village men recruited to help, loaded grain onto carts and headed south. About five miles south of town(later called Deerfield) they came to a stream called Muddy Brook where they were attacked by Indians(Wampanoags, Nipmucks, Pocumtucks). Over sixty were killed." An account of the massacre can be found in "A sketch of the History of Newbury ect." by Joshua Coffin.

"Abigail Snow Probable Wife of Daniel Small of Truro and Provincetown, Massachusetts"
By Steven Edward Sullivan, M.A.
Page 137

"In this article I will articulate the theories, arguments, and lines of evidence that collectively suggest the probability that Abigail Snow (born at Eastham, Massachusetts, on 14 October 1673, daughter of John and Mary (Smalley) Snow) [1] married Daniel Small, son of Francis Small (Edward) and his wife Elizabeth (__) of Sturgeon Creek, and Kittery, Maine, and of Truro, Cape Cod. .. If this hypothesis is correct, the many thousand descendants of Daniel Small could claim descent from Mayflower passenger Stephen Hopkins, whose daughter Constance (Hopkins) Snow was paternal grandmother of Abigail Snow.

"While the names of Daniel Small's children are revealed by deeds and baptismal records, the name of his wife (or wives) is entirely unknown. Lora A. W. Underhill concluded her sketch of Daniel Small by noting that 'the name of his wife does not appear in any existing records,' and in her discussion of Daniel's son Isaac she further observed that 'there is absolutely no trace of Daniel's wife, or wives.'  My own investigation confirms that apparently no record now exists that identifies the name of Daniel Small's wife. Convention records and sources are lacking or woefully inadequate at best, and traditional methods and techniques of genealogical research fail to whisper even a clue as to her identity. A variety of less conventional records and sources and less traditional methods and techniques had to be utilized in order to construct this interesting, plausible, and provocative hypothesis.
