Listed in Lynn. Massachusetts Vital Records-Birth as 1919, which date is right, but I believe location is wrong as I have him from Seabrook, Rockingham County, New Hampshire. Dean C. Jenkins

Worthen, ––– ––, 1819. GR5 http://ma-vitalrecords.org/MA/Essex/Lynn/aBirthsG.shtml



Worthen Gove came to Nahant to sail a yacht for the proprietors of the Nahant Hotel, taking out fishing parties. He was the drummer for the Civil War "Home Guard" troop. He was one of the owners and crew of the "Spray," and this group had a boat built for them and named the "Frederic Tudor," but she proved too small and was replaced by the "Lizzie Phillips," which some people can remember. J. Bishop Johnson and his crew sailed in the "Zeppie."
