Notes for Abraham Bemis:
[Draper:92] ...Private in the first Company of Waltham, War of the Revolution.

Abraham Bemis was one of the first fruits of Methodism in the East. With an unrestrained liberality, he opened the doors of his home at Waltham for its Evangelists, and for many years it was their home and temple. Hundreds gathered for years, in the shades of his orchards, to hear them preach, and many were there converted, including all of Mr. Bemis' family, and many of his relations. The old Weston Society was formed under his roof -- his name being the first on the roll. His hospitality towards God's Messengers returned in a hundredfold; his acres increased and abundance surrounded him.
