Savage family.
Biographical notes:
The Savage Family descended from Thomas Savage (1608-1682), who emigrated from England to Boston, Massachusetts in 1635. Samuel Phillips Savage, his great-grandson, insured vessels and cargo in Boston's shipping business and lived in Weston, Massachusetts. He was an active patriot who was President of the Massachusetts Board of War and involved in the Boston Tea Party. Joseph Savage (b. June 13, 1756), fought in the American Revolution as captain of a Massachusetts Artillery Company during the Battle of Yorktown. He remained in the army until 1792 and then settled in Berwick, Maine where he was a justice of the peace. George Washington Savage (1819-1893) settled in Rahway, Union County, New Jersey in 1852.
