	The evidence to support this theory is that there was a Jesse Coolidge born in Watertown, MA in 1791, the same town where Asa was born. Also, there is a Jesse Coolidge enumerated in the Federal Census in Jay, ME in 1820, 1830 and 1840. The 1820 census shows a male in the age range Asa would have been whereas his father's household in Watertown does not have a male in this age range. Asa might have left Watertown with Jesse to live in Maine as a teenager. The fact that Asa named a son Jesse Coolidge also supports the strong connection between the two men.
