• Notes

  Built at North end of Arrowsic Island by 1720. Moved from York to Arrowsic island on the Kennebec, and settled on a farm in the north part of that town in 1726. He was a millwright and built a mill on Negawasset pond and stream in Woolwich about 1730-31, for Hutchinson, a large proprietor. He was also a farmer and tanner. His descendants live in Boothbay, Alna, Edgecomb and Bowdoinham and are scattered up and down the banks of the Kennebec. Refer to the book "Preble Family in America" starting on page 16.
