General Notes: Husband - Jethro Blake
The history of home-lot No. 4 is not as well known or as active as the lots on either side of it. Though the original proprietor was Daniel Lunt, it soon was in the hands of John Blake. Blake had already left home-lot No. 3 to one son, and in 1754 deeded this home-lot to his son Dearborn Blake. According to John Mark Moses, Dearborn was 'of Epsom' at that time, but was 'of Epping' by 1764 when he deeded the lot to his brother Thomas. Thomas Blake moved to Chichester, and the property was sold that same year to a distant relative, Jethro Blake of Epping.Jethro Blake sold the lot to Andrew McClary in 1770, and it was sold, as was lot #3, to Amos Morrill in 1790. Jethro Blake remained in Epsom until old age, showing in the list of Association Test signers in 1776, and appears in the 1790 census. He was of Moultonborough 1794.

From the "History of the Twelfth Regiment"
Here is the fifer by transfer of Company F., through an enlisted member of Company B.. The fifth of the ten children, equally divided, of Timothy and Sally (Emerson) Blake, and born in Epsom, February 8, 1822. is father was in the War of 1812, and his grandfather Christopher, was in the revolution. Married Mary J., daughter of Aaron Buzzell of Gilford, February 3, 1845, and had by her, Geroge F., Margaret R., and Mary E.
He was one of the best fifers in the army. In a company of many players, high and clear above them all could be heard the inspiring notes of his fife. When other had to give out as "winded" he was nearly as frech as when he first began, without once taking the fife from his lips.
He was naturally kind and free hearted and from this fatherly kindness, as well as from the ract that he was older than most of his comrades, he gained among them the honored name of 'Uncle John." He was present as musician at several battles and always ready to do whatever duty was required of him, though shells and bullets were making music instead of his fife. He is still living with his good wife in Narnstead where he has resided for many years. Occupation, a farmer.
