718	Secured his education at the home schools. When he reached the age of eighteen years he came to Rockville and secured employment in the finishing room of the Rock Mill. In this establishment, and also in the American Mill, he was engaged for some five years, and then worked at Hartford for a time. At Stafford he was made a quarry foreman, and while in that city became acquainted with his future wife, Miss Julia E. West. In 1865 Mr. and Mrs. Thrall returned to Vernon and located on the old Thrall homestead, which he had inherited from his father. This land was originally purchased by his ancestors from the Indians, and has been in the possession of the family from that remote day. At one time this homestead was very extensive comprising many hundred acres, but, as it was passed through the various generations, was much broken up and divided, so that only a fraction of the original body is in the hands of Mr. Thrall. Tradition has it that the Indian chief, Tankanhoosen, is buried on this farm, and the stream that runs though it bears his name. Indians were undoubtedly numerous in this vicinity for many generations, as arrow heads and other evidences of their presence are frequently unearthed. Since their location in this neighborhood, the Thralls have built four homes. The one now occupied by Mr. Thrall was built by his grandfather, and reconstructed by himself. The third house, which stood some two or three rods east of his present location is well remembered by Mr. Thrall. The other two were a little less than a quarter of a mile south from the present location, and they stood close together. The ruins of the old well can still be traced. A more charming spot particularly in summer can hardly be imagined than the place Mr. Thrall has his home. The house is in a valley surrounded by hills. From a bay window at the south of the house, through a break in the hills, Talcott Mountain may be seen. Mr. Thrall owns a farm of a hundred acres, and engages in general farming quite extensively. Before 1890 he was much engaged in tobacco culture, but since that time has been giving his attention to dairying on a large scale. In 1888 he was one of the organizers of the Vernon creamery, of which corporation he has since 1896 been the president, and has always been on the board of directors. This creamery is well managed, and has an enviable reputation for its butter, of which it produces about ten thousand pounds a month. The present directors are John Risley, E.B. Lathrop, H.P. Rick, Henry Burke, George Dart, George Fisk and A.O. Thrall. Probably to Mr. Thrall more than any other man, is due the credit for valuable services in the early start of this institution. Mr. Thrall cast his first vote for James Buchanan, but since that time has supported the Republican party. He has always interested himself in local matters, and has held various positions of trust and honor, serving as assessor, justice of the peace, and at present is a member of the board of relief. At one time he allowed his name to be presented as a candidate for the Republican nomination to the General Assembly, but before the meeting of the convention withdrew in favor of Mr. Kuhnly, of Rockville. Mr. and Mrs. Thrall united with the Vernon Centre Congregational Church in 1869, and from time to time have served in important places in that society. Mr. and Mrs. Thrall, and their daughter, Mrs. Smith, belong to the Vernon Grange. Mrs. Smith is lecturer of that grange, now serving her second term. Mr. Thrall has been treasurer of the Vernon Grange for years. At the request of the committee having in their charge the preparation of sample Connecticut farm products, Mr. Thrall selected a few ears from his crib, and sent them for exhibition at the Columbia World's Fair at Chicago. When the awards were made, Mr. Thrall received a bronze medal for Yellow King Corn of the best quality. It was planted May 1st, in hills 3x3 1/2 feet in soil well fertilized, and was harvested Sept. 15th. The yield was from forty to seventy bushels to the acre, and the weight fifty-six to sixty-four pounds to the bushel.	Thrall, Alfred Olcott (I1858)

744	She read prodigiously. Her grandson relates that she would read in bed, one hand holding a kerosine lamp and the other a book.	Smith, Esther M (I769)
745	She rose from humble and shadowy origins in London's seedy nether world of brothels and booze to become one of the trusted circle of the Prince of Wales. The Prince was so besotted with Lady Laetitia Lade that he commissioned a portrait of her from George Stubbs, one of the greatest artists of the day, to hang at his London home two centuries ago. The painting is normally in the private rooms of Windsor Castle. Stubbs's painting shows her calmly dealing with a rearing horse while seated side-saddle, a tricky feat even though she was also renowned as a gifted horsewoman. Like many women of the era, only fragments of her life remain - the rest is lost in the mists of time because chroniclers tended to dwell on the menfolk of the age. But her foul mouth gave her some notoriety at the time and gave rise to the phrase "to swear like Lady Lade". It is not even clear when she was born, but Lady Lade, who was born Laetitia Derby, is understood to have worked as a servant in a brothel in her early years. Through her underworld connections she became the mistress of the dandy highwayman John Rann. After he was tried and hanged for his crimes, she became the mistress of the Duke of York and then moved on to his friend Sir John Lade, a society figure who as a child was the subject of a poem by family friend Dr Johnson. It was through Sir John that she became close to the profligate Prince of Wales - George Augustus, later to become George IV - who employed him as his racing manager. "The Prince of Wales seems to have been quite obsessed with her," said author Robin Blake, whose book George Stubbs and the Wide Creation is published on Thursday. "But he probably respected his friend's marriage. He flirted with her and sent her presents from Bath." Letitia Derby - Sir John Lade's second wife - was once the mistress of the Duke of York. She and her husband were close friends of the Prince of Wales, receiving from him an annual pension of three hundred pounds.	Derby, Lady Letitia (I1034)
746	She was a 41 year old widow when she married Thomas Salusbury.	King, Sarah Burroughs (I685)
747	She was a doer and her competitive spirit seems to have been transmitted to her son. She was not a big woman but a great worker and kept very active most of her 87 years.	Bartlett, Vesta Emmaretta (I1525)
748	She was born a Thrale although it is not known from which branch of the family that she came.	Thrale, Susan (I327)
749	She was born in America but it also has been established that she is not the Pilgrim Peter Browne's daughter Andrew Waber wabnoles@yahoo.com	Brown, Mary (I856)
750	She was buried at St Leonard's Church, Streatham. This epitaph to Hester Maria Salusbury was written by Samuel Johnson, who like Hester Maria Salusbury, lived with the Thrale family for many years. The following commentary is Hester Thrale's from her journal Thraliana. The epitaph engraved on my mother's monument shows how deserving she was of general applause. I asked Johnson why he named her person before her mind. He said it was "because everybody could judge of the one, and but few of the other." Juxta sepulta est HESTERA MARIA Thomæ Cotton de Combermere Baronetti Cestriensis Filia, Johannis Salusbury Armigeri Flintiensis, uxor; Forma felix, felix ingenio: Omnibus jucunda, suorum amantissima. Linguis artibusque ita exculta Ut loquenti nunquam deessent Sermonis nitor, sententiarum flosculi, Sapientiae gravitas, leporum gratia: Modum servandi adeo perita, ut domestica inter negotia literis oblectaretur, Literarum inter delicias, rem familiarem sedulo curaret, Multis illi multos annos precantibus diri carcinomatis veneno contabuit, nexibusque vitae paulatim resolutis, e terris ? meliora sperans ? emigravit. Nata 1707. Nupta 1739. Obiit 1773. Mr. Murphy (Henry Thrale's closest friend), who admired her talents and delighted in her company, did me the favour to paraphrase this elegant inscription in verses which I fancy have never yet been published. His fame has long been out of my power to increase as a poet: as a man of sensibility perhaps these lines may set him higher than he now stands. I remember with gratitude the friendly tears which prevented him from speaking as he put them into my hand. [From Anecdotes] Murphy has been very kind to me, he has translated the Epitaph Johnson wrote upon my Mothers Monument; his kindness is more acceptable to me than his Verses?but the Verses are well enough too. [From Thraliana 14 January 1779] Near this place Are deposited the remains of HESTER MARIA. The daughter of Sir Thomas Cotton of Combermere, in the County of Cheshire, Bart., the wife of John Salusbury Esqr of the county of Flint. She was born in the year 1707. Married 1739. died in 1773. A pleasing form, where every grace combined, With genius blest, a pure enlightened mind; Benevolence on all that smiles bestowed, A heart that for her friends with love o'erflowed: In language skilled, by science formed to please, Her mirth was wit, her gravity was ease. Graceful in all, the happy mien she knew, Which even to virtue gives the limits due; Whate'er employed her, that she seemed to choose, Her house, her friends, her business, or the muse. Admired and loved, the theme of general praise, All to such virtue wished a length of days. But sad reverse! with slow-consuming pains, Th' envenomed cancer revelled in her veins; Preyed on her spirits?stole each power away; Gradual she sank, yet smiling in decay; She smiled in hope, by sore affliction tried, And in that hope the pious Christian died.	Cotton, Hester Maria (I683)
