Andrew, born about 1790, was "non compos mentis." On 25 March 1817, Abigail Blackman and Elijah Endicott, two "relations" requested guardianship for him. On 1 April 1817, the bond of guardianship was signed by Jabez Cobb, cordwainer, Thomas French Jr., and Ezra Tilden. On 5 April 1825, Nathaniel Wentworth, a "near relation" [Andrew's uncle] was appointed guardian. On 7 May 1839, Martin Draper of Dedham was appointed administrator of the estate of Andrew, signing the bond with Jabez Cobb and Horace Guild, both of Canton. Abel Wentworth, John Gay, and Benjamin Gill appraised his inventory on 2 July 1839, and the distribution of his estate, dated 5 May 1840, went to James Fadden of Canton, Rachel Cobb, wife of Jabez Cobb of Canton; Amelia Guild, wife of Horace Guild of Canton; and Sally Draper, wife of Martin Draper of Dedham. Andrew is buried in the same plot with his parents and sister Mehitable Fisher.
