Benjamin Ober came here from New Boston, N. H., in 1801, and cleared for himself a farm a little north of the center of the town, where he resided until his death, in 1861, aged eighty-three years. He had three children, all of whom settled in this town. Norman, his second son, born in 1815, now owns the old homestead, on road 10.
