Henry Prentice Foster was the eldest son of Henry and Susanna (Hooper) Foster, and was born in Walpole, N. H., in 1796, and died in the same town in 1861. He served as a private in the War of 1812; his service consisting of a few months of garrison duty at Portsmouth. N. H., just before the close of the war. A few years after he purchased a farm in Walpole, where he went to reside with his young bride, Miss Philena Russell, of Walpole family, also which has always taken a front rank in local affairs, and from whom came as a direct lineal descendant John Edward Russell, P. H. D., a professor at Williams College, and at one time a popular lecturer at the Harvard Divinity School, supplying for Prof. C. C. Everett, the able dean of that school, who was absent in Europe for few years.

By this marriage there were born two sons and a daughter, Caleb Foster, now a venerable, respected and well-to-do farmer, of Walpole; Henry Thomas, who died in Walpole, in 1879, and Elizabeth Philena, who afterward married Dr. A. J. Huntoon, who went to Topeka, Kans., to reside as one of the first settlers in 1857, where she died in 1893. Philena, his first wife, died in Walpole in 1839. The subject of this sketch married for a second wife Eliza Marsh, and from this union were born Charles Marsh, now practicing law in Topeka, and Katie J., who married Benjamin Adams, of East Derry, N. H., where she now resides...
