Dr. Moses of the Scottish/Irish emigration came first to what is now Cushing about 1740 taking up a lot on the western bank below the narrows which his son Archibald later inherited. He had much knowledge of the use of roots, herbs, and the use of lancet, and hence called doctor. He also took up at lot, number 22, further up the river in what is now Warren where he moved to with the first settlers. Dr. Moses was the physician at the old fort and was one of thirty-two witnesses to the ratification of Dummer's treaty between the English and the Indians. He was buried there in the 1st graveyard by the old Presbyterian meeting house(now known as the Old Settlers Cemetery). Capt. Andrew Robinson, probably a brother died and was buried at the old fort in 1742.
