Writing to his father, General Benjamin Lincoln, in the 1790's, Theodore Lincoln of Dennysville mentioned land near Pulpit Rock as a suitable location for a proposed house site for the second son of Thomas Russel, one of the original investors in the purchase of Townships 1 and 2. When the eldest son died, his younger brother had to give up plans for a house on the banks of the St. Croix River in order to take up the family inheritance in England.
