Arlington Vital Records: Samuel Butterfield and Miranda Whittemore were married January 31, 1839. We now come to the name of Philemon R.

Mr. Russell was employed more than once to teach at West Cambridge, in the district known as the Rocks. Philemon Robbins Russell was born January 2, 1795, and died June 6, 1863, at the age of sixty-eight. He received h
