WILLIAM WOODF0RD.
Celebration of His 91st Birthday
Yesterday

At the House of His Daughter, Mrs. f. O.
Bailoy-Brief Historical Sketch of His
Long, Interesting Life and of the Wood
fords of Woodford's Corner-Sometbing
About Three Famous Old Houses.
At Woodfords, in Deering, yesterday,
between the hours of three and ten
o'clock p. M, Mr.. William Woodford, a
hale and hearty old gentleman, who has
lived at Woodfords all his life, celebrated
his 91st birthday by an informal reception
to his many friends at the home of his
daughter, Mrs f. o. Bailey, on Oak
street. Because Of the unfortunate
weather the occasion was, of course, not
SO successful as if the sun had shone, but
great many people paid their tribute of
respect and affection and congratulation
to Mr.. Woodford, who, in spite of his
great age, is still enjoying good health
and spirits.
Because of this occasion it is particular
ly appropriate to call attention to some of
the salient features in the long and inter-
esting life of this Oldest resident of Wood
fords, and something of the history of his
family, who have been and still are so
prominent in that neighborhood.
The Portland daily press., 1895-07-10

On the death of his father, William
Woodford worked with his uncle in the
tinware and comb business until the
business died natural death. That was
long before the war. He then became a
coppersmith and sheet iron worker He
did good deal of work for Hon j. B.
Brown, and in 1861 went to New York in
his employ to do the sheet iron work on a
new sugar house being built there
In 1927 he was married to Nancy W.
Stevens, daughter of Benjamin Stevens,
who kept tavern in the large old
| fashioned house on Ocean street, in
which Mr.. Woodford still lives The
young couple lived in the Mosher house
| for a short time, but on the death of Mr..
Stevens went to live with the widow in
the Stevens tavern. For some years after
that it was a public house, where the
wood haulers from the outlying towns
used to stop on their way to Portland.
There was large stable then and wing
to the house, both of which have been re-
moved, the wing being the Jefferds house
which stands in the rear of the lot, and
faces upon Forest avenue, just across the
Maine Central tracks.
Mr. Woodford stated that his father
Isaiah was the first Woodford that ever
came to Maine, as far as he .can learn.
After Isaiah and E5enezer, an older
brother, Chauncey, came on from Con-
necticut and established himself in the
comb business at Morrill's Corner

FORD s CORNER, Sl YEARS OLOs
1t was because of the prominence of the
family in those early days that the neigh
borhood became known as Woodford' s
Corner.
The Chenery and Mosher house, that
were formerly the property OF Ebenezer
Woodford, became known by the above
names because they came into the
possession of his two daughters Mary
and Julia, who married the late John j.
Chenery and Thomas Mosher, respective
ly. Mrs Chenery still lives in the old
house that William Woodford was born
in, but of late years the Mosher family
have resided in Massachusetts,.
The old mansion where Mr.. William
Woodford lives was built by Benjamin
Stevens in the latter part of the last
century. 1t was built to last, and the
great timbers of solid oak are SO large
that they project in the corners of the
rooms
"They must have expected cyclones
when they built this house" said old Mr..
Woodford, with chuckle, after referring
to the great timbers.
There was huge, old fashioned comb
on the table in the room, elaborately
carved and big enough for the headgeal
of the ladies of the court of Louis XIV.
"I've made hundreds of 'em," said Mr..
Woodford.
"What is it made OFF"
"Horn.
"Where did you get the horn?"
SIT used to go by the door on the heads
of CATTLE said the old gentleman with
another chuckle. "They used to veal
bonnets in those days big enough to cover
that comb" he added. ''You could make
two bonnets out of the comb nova
days"
Mr.. Woodford has resided in two states
four towns and one city, and yet he has
always lived at Woodfords Corner. The
states are Massachusetts, and Maine, the
towns are Falmouth, Stroudwater, West
brook and Deering, and the city is the
present municipality.
There is good reason to believe that il
due time Mr.. Woodford may live tt
change his list from Zone CITY" to 1.-TWO
cities" and yet not change his residence
Mr.. Woodford is not the Oldest resident
of Deering, despite his long life. Mr.
Charles Maxfeld of Strudwater is 90 year.
of age, and has always lived at Stroud
water.
| 1t was expected that Mr.. Woodford'
Oldest son, William D. Woodford, o
Chicago, would be present at the birth
day reception at the F. o. Bailey hous'

firm of Libby, Mcneil & Libby o
