Nehemiah Harding was a life-long sea captain, sailing in the vessels of William King, continuing as long as he was able to go to sea.
He was born at Truro, Mass., and came, with his father, to the New Meadows to a farm when he was two years old. When old enough he commenced going to sea, and, working his way up, became a very successful commander. He married Miss Rachel Reed at Pleasant Point, Topsham, and they had three sons and three daughters.
He lived until 86 years, dying August 2, 1865. His wife died January 19, 1834, aged 47 years. His descendants, in Bath and elsewhere, are numerous, taking high ranking positions in business, society, and public positions.
