- Elkanah L. Leonard (abt 1800-1869), Selectman
- Cornelius M. Holland (1822-1902) or possibly his father Cornelius Holland (1783-1870)
- Miss A. F. Howe, Teacher
- D. L. Wilson - not sure of surname, but possibly David L. Wilson (abt 1807-abt 1886), who may have been the Teacher or School Superintendent for District No. 6
