專家說明

Leverett Saltonstall I (1783-1845) was born in Haverhill, Massachusetts as a member of the prominent Boston Saltonstall family, which included his grandfather Nathaniel Saltonstall, a judge during the Salem witch trials, and uncle Gurdon Saltonstall, governor of the Colony of Connecticut from 1708-1724. Leverett himself was very involved in politics, serving as the first Mayor of Salem, Massachusetts from 1836 to 1838, and then as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives for Massachusetts from 1838 to 1843, following years in the Massachusetts House and Senate.
