�SUMMAHY
In tracing the housA at lOh Federal st., we canv:i upon a curious
circumstance wr··ich used to occur
tions in the old da•rs in
Sal·~m.
o~casional1',r
in real estate transac-
Asa 1amson, an upholsterer, purchasod a
"lot of land", the dimensions of which are t.hA same as at present from
I,ucy JJartin in
la25.
Tn the 8itv of Salem 'l'ax '1ecords, Asa Jamson hegan
pa•.rine taxes on a n:-iouse" in 18lh.
He
ownc~d no
othel' property, and so Hp-
parentlv IuclT Hartin permitted him to bui.ld his combin·'ld house o.nd shop
on her land, which he finall•r purchased from her 11 years later.
Jamson died in
Ghurch deacons.
18~8
ir1hen Asa
his 1vill remembered various nephews and the Baptist
His house and land
wr~re
solrl for
11
pavment of iiebts ".
Oddly
there is no mention of his ·wife or adopted son, for whora no record of death
can be found up to
inso.
geni:~alogy
Iamson
straightened out a confusing duplication of names.
Anot!'ler Asa Lamson, a sadd1 er and chaise maker, liv13d :Ln
had a shop on nridge
st.
No~th Sal,~m
and
He wa.s the son of a Capt. A.sa I.amson of Beverly.
A third Asa Iamsnn, a "R9VGrend 11 , was born in New Tfamshire, lived in
Andover and died in Salem in 1R6o.
'T'he Asa I amson of lOh Federal st. was
I
proboblr distantly related to these others.
Be was born in Exeter N. f.!.
son of Joseph Iamson in 1783. In 18lh h:i married rtargaret Bro1•m in Salem,
and this was t11r:i IGar he built '.1.is house on Fecl1ral
had no children of their own, but
in 1833.
