Today's Throwback Thursday is a photograph of Moses and Mary Elliot Rowell. Moses (1845-1920) was born in Amesbury, MA, and served in the 11th Regiment NH Infantry during the Civil War between December 29, 1863-July 17, 1865. This regiment fought in several notable battles including the Battle of Fredericksburg and the Siege of Vicksburg. After the war, Moses worked as a carriage builder and wheelwright. Mary (1854-1937) was born in Bow, and later lived in Goffstown on a farm. Later in life, this duo resided in Hooksett Village on Rose Street.
