He represented the town in the State Senate four years, commencing with 1889, and held the position of lieutenant-governor in 1894, 1895, and 1896.

courts, have caused his advice to be frequently sought in the drafting of important documents and in the transfer and settlement of estates. He married Jan. 1, 1868, Mary Elizabeth, daughter of George Kenyon and Martha Elizabeth Babcock Thayer, who has presented him with two sons, George Edward
Allen, of Hope Valley, RIi., and Frederick Carleton Allen, A.M., a lawyer in

Captan Anderson was master of the ship "Blessing".spouse: Richardson, Catharine (1655 - )
"Served with the 10th (later 4th) Royal Veteran's Battalion. David and his wife and seven children were one of six British military families who were taken down the St. John River in 1814 by Joseph Bouchette, the Surveyor General of Quebec. They are probably one of the two placed on some cleared land where the Salmon River entered the St. John. This far down the river, the Andersons were on the British side of the boundary, even according to the 1783 treaty.spouse: [Anderson], Sara "Charlotte" (*1767 - )
Shortly after May 31, 1814, the Surveyor General arrived at 'Salmon River, which place I found highly advantageous for the settlers with a tolerable large clearing, which happens to have fortunately fallen to the lot of two large families + the most helpless ...'. Mr. Bouchette had sent a list of seven families to Sir George Prevost on 1 May, and the Anderson family was the largest on this list. Unoccupied cleared lands along this river valley may have been difficult to find. Bouchette explains that he found the land belonged to a Mr. King, who had bought the land from 'an old [French] Canadian'.
'Upon enquiry I found he held no kind of title from Government, however, I made it a point to write to Mr. Sproule, Surveyor General at Fredericton [New Brunswick] on the subject and received no answer, Therefore in obedience to Your Excellency's Instructions I have to report that those two last families are settled on Government lands within the Province of New Brunswick...'
Another list of families from this battalion, this time showing who was settled at which point along this route, is dated 3 May 1817. At the bottom of the list is 'Widow Anderson', who with her (now) seven children, is one of three families at Salmon River. David had apparently died since being chosen as one of the military settlers. He had been the second oldest at 54 when he first appeared in a list of prospective soldier-settlers in May 1814; still too young to be "old" in today's world, but perhaps not very young in 1814. He had served over 26 years in the British military." [Mori Hillman, 2 Mar 2002.]
