Editor's Note:
Excerpt from The White Pine, Vol. 6: Series of Architectural Monographs; A New England Village "Far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife, Their sober wishes never learned to stray: Along the cool, sequestered vale of lifeThey kept the noiseless tenor of their way." When Zabdiel Podbury fled from Stoke-on-Tritham in the Spring of 1689 with Drusilla Ives, taking passage on the bark Promise, sailing for Massachusetts Bay, it was not realized at the time that, from this union, and the joint labors of the Pen-thesilean pair, the village of Stotham (so named by them in memory of their autochthonous abode) would in later days come to be regarded as a typical example, although, perhaps, not so well known, of the unspoiled New England Village. The terms typical and unspoiled are used advisedly, as a reference to the illustrations will show. There are, possibly, no especially striking or far-famed structures, no wealth of fine carving or ornamental detail, no grand estates or mansion houses, yet from its early simplicity, and quality of chaste primness, the village has slowly developed, until, as it now stands, a characteristic chapter of New England endeavor lies spread out on the gently undulating plain, lapped by the salt waters of the inland cove on one side, and stretching out by the fertile meadows of the river on the other. The first temporary houses soon gave way to more permanent structures, and the tradition of restrained. conservative building has been faithfully followed even to the present day. Fortunately there was no occasion, and, what is more unusual, no inclination to depart from the customs and practices of the earlier settlers, in buildings of a later period, and the blighting hand of the real estate promoter, and the withering touch of the speculative builder, are conspicuously lacking. To the Podbury family - who may well be termed the founders of Stotham - eleven children were born, seven boys and four girls. Adoniram, who married Hephzibah Jenks, died in his early thirties, and the descendants of his widow, who afterwards married Theron Greenleaf. still keep up the old Jenks-Greenleaf house, the doorway of which is shown in the frontispiece. Ira Podbury married Serena Bellows, and their son Manasseh, afterwards a colonel in the Stotham Fusileers, who made an enviable record in the Revolutionary War (q.v. Bilks' "History of the Early Revolutionary Volunteer Guards Associations" and Cranitche's "Curious Antiquities of New England Villages," pp. 329-427 et seq.), the financier of the family, built the second Podbury-lves house, which was the pride of the village. Obadiah and Nahum Podbury died in their early youth. Elnathan was lost at sea, but the youngest son, Obijah, early developing a natural instinct and taste for building, constructed, with the assistance of three others of the first settlers, many of the simple old farm-houses, a few examples of which are illustrated in the following pages.
