Synopsis
Excerpt from James Ayer: In Memoriam, Born October 4, 1815, Died December 31, 1891
The preparation of this Memorial Sketch has been a labor of filial love. It was suggested by notes which my father wrote some years ago, and left addressed to me. From this source I have freely drawn.
Much has been written regarding the genealogy of the four families, Ayer, Ayres, Mason and Bourne, -only an outline of which is given here.
Iowe much to the kindness of many friends who have aided in making the statements as accurate as possi ble, and, in addition to those elsewhere mentioned, am especially indebted to Miss Ellen C. Ayer, Mrs. E. Corinna Wheeler, Miss A. Lucy Bourne, and to Mr. Monroe Ayer for information regarding the family history; to Honorable William H. Clifford and Messrs.
