Notes - Isaac Howland, the youngest son of John Howland of the Mayflower, lived on the western side of the road, opposite the house of the late Thomas Pratt. He was a leader of public affairs, and town meetings were often held at his home. He owned land on which the present town house stands [1906], and also in the Sixteen Shilling and Twenty-six Men's Purchases. When the families moved to the fort, Isaac Howland was ordered by Lieutenant Tomson to shoot the Indian who appeared upon the rock on the other side of the river. He was the first in the commandant's council, probably the man upon whom Lieutenant Tomson chiefly relied for advice when the garrison were in the fort, and he served with great bravery under Captain Church during the war [King Philip's War].
He married Elizabeth, daughter of George Vaughan, and in 1684 kept an inn. His name is one of the most prominent in the early history as holding many offices. He was representative in 1689, 1690, and 1691. He died March 9, 1724, aged seventy-four.
