"History of Parsonsfield" (Portland ME 1888) p. 41 James Hart, or Master Hart, as he was usually called, was one of the early teachers of Parsonsfield. He came from Epping or Newmarket, NH, about 1790, and left the town in 1807, having remained about seventeen years. He taught in the western, middle, eastern, and southern sections of the town, changing his residence to accommodate himself to his business. While teaching in the southern section, he kept his school in Jesse Wedgwood's dwelling-house, as I have heard my father say, who attended his school there when a small boy, probably about 1796. He was an Englishman, born in Berkeley in 1748, and governed his schools in the rigorous style of the school teachers of England. He used the rod and ferule freely. Few scholars dared to lift their eyes from their books, during study hours, in his school. He was not, however altogether to blame for his severe mode of school discipline. It was largely the fault of his time and his English training. Corporal punishment was then much more frequently employed in the schoolroom, in the family, and everywhere than now; and perhaps scholars then required severer discipline. Master Hart must have been a good teacher for his time, or he could not have continued his business for so many years, in succession, in the same town. After leaving Parsonsfield, Master Hart taught a while in Sanford in this county, and afterward probably moved to New Hampshire, and died there.
