Quite an obituary! New Ipswich had some amazing people (still does I assume). The Prestons were a memorable part of my youth. During the hot summer days of the 1940's my mother would take us to the Preston beach. Mr. Preston would collect 10 cents per car at the gate. Other times I enjoyed playing around the Preston home while Mrs. Preston measured and pinned a dress for my mother, she was an excellent seamstress. She later (after her husband died) lived with us. I think her name was Eva. Not sure of her husband's name. They were always Mr. & Mrs. Preston to us. They must have been related to Charles.
