--------------------
George B Wiggin was in the Piscassic section of Newfields at Littlefield
Crossing before Joseph F Wiggin came to Newmarket. He was instrumental in
getting JFW to come to Newmarket. He found the farm and urged JFW to buy it.
GBW was a blacksmith, mechanic,and inventor. He invented or improved a number
of farm machines, and made himself a good bit of money. Littlefield Crossing
is where the Concord-Portsmouth RR crossed the Epping to Newfields highway. It
was a flagstop on the RR [family lore, prob from Charles Lester Buzzell, ggs/o
JFW].
