As written in The Felt Genealogy: A Record of the Descendents of George Felt of Casco Bay, listed in North America, Family Histories, 1500-2000 for George Felt,
First Generation, page 19:
The aged couple were now evidently growing feebler, and the town voted, March 14, 1692, with a prudent provision for rebate in case its charity should prove overgenerous “that the towne doealow goodman nicols aleuen pound in or of money for this present yeare ensuingfor the maintanance of his father and mother felt, if ether of them dy with inthe year, after funiral charges, what is left to return to the selectman orthere order.” The record ends here. The sturdy pioneer whose advent at North Yarmouth was reckoned as its “birth-day,”and whose courageous manhood helped to establish it firmly upon the foundation of its prosperity it enjoys to-day; wronged in his old age by those who should have aided him instead; driven out to seek a home of charity; assure that his “funiral expenses” were provided for, died in1693 aged 92 years, and his wife “much advance in years” followed him in 1694.
