He is the son of Abdial Bliss Jr & Sybil Wheaton
Married July 27, 1817 to Dolly Claflin.
He came to New Ipswich in 1821 and settled in Bank Village, where he was a machinist and carpenter. He built himself a house upon the north side of the main road, it being the second house northerly from the brick bank building. This was his home until his death and has since been occupied by his descendants. He was a skilful and trustworthy mechanic in largely varied lines of work, as is evidenced by his long-continued connection with the cotton factories. He superintended the erection of three of the factories upon the Souhegan, the "Waterloom," now standing unused in the Bank Village, the "Souhegan," standing until its destruction by fire in 1838 on the site of the present Columbian factory below the High Bridge, and the first of the factories of the same company at Greenville. Nearly all of the machinery in those mills was made by him or under his inspection in the machine shop connected with the "Waterloom" mill, and he was manager of all those mills until a division of such duties in 1835.
