Biography
Daniel's first wife, Hannah Kneeland, is buried in a field at her father's house on Bell Hill Road in Otisfield (Spurr, A HISTORY OF OTISFIELD [op. cit.], 558). Daniel's second wife, Hannah Sampson, is remembered as a "woman of great industry and of fine character." Daniel was a farmer. He lived in the Maine towns of Harrison, Otisfield, Parkman, Lincoln, Springfield, Patten and Crystal. He served for a short time with the Minute Men at Portland during the War of 1812, when the English warships "Boxer" and "Enterprise" attacked Portland and the surrounding forts. He is remembered as "a very faithful member of the Free Baptist Church, and was one of the most industrious of men, farming, logging, butchering, handling flax, and being able to undertake about every kind of work. He was very hardy and almost always had perfect health until near the close of his life. He had a very honorable and upright character" (Sinnett, THE HISTORY OF THE SCRIBNER FAMILIES [op. cit.], 76).
