Home Up Legacy Report Rev. H. O. Thayer Massacre

The link above to Rev. Henry O. Thayer is his work published in the 1920's, it expands on the first Preble's in America through My G-G Grandfather Reverend Nehemiah Flint Preble. I got this from Harry Preble and scanned it into an OCR Program so if you see any outrageous errors let me know. I also got a ton of material from Col, Charles Preble, he knocked down a big brick wall by figuring out that Nathaniel Preble was married twice...

Go see Gary Preble's page too, he has some neat stuff... Like the coat of arms for some Preble or another

I just added Rev. Henry O. Thayer's version of the Preble Massacre... I stole this from Gary Preble's page and spent about three hours printing, trimming, scanning, and converting it to editable text. See the link above
