Son of David Northrop & Salina Beardsley, Nehemiah m. Laura Abbie Giddings in 1819 in New York. He is buried in the Congressional Cemetery, Washington, DC.
In 1819 Nehemiah is listed for the Town of Granby Public Officials as a Supervisor, Town Clerk. About 1820 he built a nail factory at the falls which was subsequently converted into a saw mill. In 1826 he erected a grist mill at this point, which was the first of the kind along the west side of the river between Three River Point and Oswego. About this time a saw mill was built on the Oswego River a mile above the mouth of Ox Creek and for several years was operated by Geer & Paine. It was finally abandoned.

He later resided in Fulton, New York and was an editor and inventor and published a dictionary and spelling-book on the phonetic system.
Fulton Village. This is the largest and most important village in the county. The immense water-power afforded by the Oswego River very early gave it a wide celebrity and attracted hither many settlers of means and enterprise, who interested themselves in the numerous valuable sites. In the distance from the head of Yelverton Island to the foot of Waterhouse Island the fall is, naturally, about forty-five feet, which is increased somewhat by the upper dam. Along most of this course lie many available mill privileges.
