"John, b. 5 Dec., 1700; m. 17 April, 1721, Hannah Child; their home was in that part of Westboro later known as Northboro; in spite of his early death, 10 Nov., 1732, he acquired a large estate for the time. His grandson Jonathan (1754-1811) sent two sons to Harvard College and they were the first Fays in the roll of Harvard Alumni; Dr. Nahum Fay was one of the earliest graduates of the Harvard Medical School; his older brother Jonathan studied law, settled at Concord, Mass., and rose to marked success in his profession; the latter's son, Samuel Prescott Phillips Fay (1778-1856), was probate Judge of Middlesex Co. for 35 years and served on the Board of Overseers of Harvard College for 28 years; two of the latter's sons were Harvard graduates, Richard Sullivan Fay in 1825 and Rev. Charles Fay in 1829, while a third son, Joseph Story Fay (1812-1897), became widely known as an expert in Forestry and Floriculture by his estate in Woods Holl, Mass. A son of Rev. Charles Fay graduated at Harvard in 1869, and a grandson of R. S. Fay in 1881, while a number of J.S. Fay's descendants have been students at our oldest college. One of the scholarships annually awarded at Radcliff College bears the name of Capt. Jonathan Fay of Westboro. Laura Matilda Fay and Rose Emily Fay, daughters of Rev. Charles Fay were gifted women who contributed many of the critical notices published in the New York and Chicago Journals; Rose was well known in Chicago as a decorative artist and her marriage 7 May, 1890, to Theodore Thomas, the famous orchestral leader, was a society event.".
