Dea Amos lives at what is now Jamesville, where one of the gates on the old Worcester and Stafford Turnpike was located, and may have been its first keeper, although he has not been given the credit of it. When 3 years old, Nancy fell into the well, still in use, at the old homestead of her father, but was rescued without injury.
