Robert Tuck, ,who, born at Gorlston, in the county of Suffolk, England, came to Hampton, New Hampshire, about 1638, was A mos Tuck. For a century and a half the family dwelt in the town chosen by its progenitor, but John Tuck, father of A mos, early in the nineteenth century, moved to Maine, taking up his abode in the town of Parsonsfield. There on the second day of A ugust, 1810, A mos Tuck was born. His boyhood was associated with his fathers farm and, save the determination for a college education, his early years moved on according to the cold routine of New England country life. Fortunately the youths courage kept company with his ambition and each year found him nearer the door of the academy. In his seventeenth year the boy dreams came true and the longed for opportunity for learning was at hand.
