Notes |
- From A MEMORIAL OF WILLIAM HARRIS AND MARIA HASTINGS CARY by Rev. C. A. Staples, preached in the first Congregational Meetinghouse, Lexington, Mass., Sunday Evening, April 8, 1883, pages 11-12:
Maria Hastings, born March 1, 1801, was the youngest daughter of Isaac and Sarah (Stearns) Hastings, of Lexington. Her father was chosen deacon of this church in 1808, and served until his death, in 1831.
He was one of Captain Parker's company of minute men, who gathered on Lexington Common to resist the invaders on the 19th of April, 1775; and he served in the campaign which ended in the surrender of Burgoyne, and in other scenes of the war. The Grandfather, Samuel Hastings, who lived to be the patriarch of Lexington, dying at the advanced age of ninety-nine years, was also on the common with Captain Parker, and with the troops at Cambridge when Washington took command of the American army.
