EDMOND FAULKNER and some of his DESCENDANTS
from Acton Historical Society
He moved from Andover to Acton, Mass., (now South Acton) and purchased, in 1733, the place still (1937) in the Faulkner family. The house was originally the Garrison House, built as a refuge for the settlers in times of Indian raids but there is no record that it was ever used for that purpose. He built the mills which, for over two centuries, have been known as the Faulkner Mills. His wife, Hannah, was the daughter of James and Hannah Abbott Ingalls. Both are buried in Woodlawn Cemetery, Acton.

He settled right into Acton's town affairs after moving there in 1738. In May of 1738 he was chosen to the committee to settle Acton's first minister, Rev. John Swift, and to arrange his salary. Sixteen years later, when Parson Swift's salary had to be reassessed because of fluctuating prices, he was also on the committee to settle that. Although he entered into town affairs only as a selectman for two years, he helped Acton's early grwoth by operating the mills at Acton's commercial center - Mill corner is S. Acton was then called. Shortly after he purchased the place, he added a grist mill to the already existing fulling and saw mills.
