Nashua NH Composer, Piano Merchant and Civic Leader, William Law “Will” Nutting (1874-1925)

William L. “Will” Nutting

Before it was Darrell’s Music Hall, it was Paine Furniture Music Hall. Before that it was Nutting’s Music Store. And before that it was William L. Nutting Inc.

William Law Nutting was not born, nor did he die, in New Hampshire. But from a lowly piano tuner, he worked his way up until he was one of the leading retail merchants of pianos and “talking machines” in New England. For over twenty years he had a shop and warehouse in Nashua, New Hampshire. After his death, the company continued in his name for several years.

William L. Nutting liked to be called by the shortened name of “Will.” He composed music locally popular in his time, such as the “White Mountain March,” [listen here] and “Waltz Song: Angling.” He was very active in the local and regional music community, keeping up with the advancing technology by including “Victrolas” and other electronic music players, along with his strong base of pianos. His successors included other music instruments to the mix.

In 1906 Will Nutting had a piano shop and warehouse at 4 Temple Street in the Oddfellows Building, Nashua NH

In 1897 he lived at 89 Thetford Avenue in Boston MA, but by 1899 Will and his family were residing in Hudson NH. In 1904 the NH Register lists him as selling pianos and organs in Nashua. Apparently the family moved back to Nashua, for in 1906 He had a piano ‘wareroom’ at 4 Temple Street “Nutting W L 4 Temple” and lived at 5 Locust Street.

He was a member of the Entertainment Committee of Nashua’s Board of Trade [page 183 The Nashua Directory of 1906]. He built up his business in Nashua, and was active professionally in the music industry, becoming President of the New England Music Trade Association. When he died he passed along the company to his daughter, who in turn passed it to her son.

Will Nutting’s daughter, Blanche D. Nutting married Jason F. Bickford. In 1976 their son, Robert N. Bickford, was President of Nutting’s Music Store, at 75 Main Street in Nashua NH.  Darrell’s music store took over in 1969 [as Paine Furniture Music Hall]  and became the premier piano and organ dealer.

[please see notes under William L. Nutting listing regarding possible adoption]

Editor’s Note: Since I started writing this story on Will Nutting, a series of photographs appeared on Ebay of the Nutting – Hood – and Elliott families of Southern New Hampshire, all related to each other, and to Will Nutting.  Although I bid on them all, I did not “win” them all.  However, the seller/owner, Bonnie Nixon, who scanned these photographs (i.e. derivative works) has given me written permission to use them here.  [20 May 2015: “Sure take whatever scans you need for your blog. Thank you for all your purchases, I sincerely appreciate it. Bonnie.”]

John Nutting, the immigrant ancestor and Sarah Eggleston, daughter of Stephen and Elizabeth Jane (Bennett) Eggleston. She presumably came to New England with her parents in 1634 on the ship, ‘Castle.’ She married John Nutting, also of Kent, 28 August 1650 in Woburn, Massachusetts. According to the Genealogical and Family History of the State of NH, by Ezra S. Stearns, Vol 1: “John Nutting, who came to this country of Kent, England, was residing in Woburn, Massachusetts as early as 1650 and was one of the petitioners of the town of Chelmsford, whither he went int he spring of 1655. In 1661 he removed to Groton, MA, as one of its original proprietors, and his dwelling constituted one of the five garrison houses. He was killed in an attack upon the town March 13, 1676, by a band of Indians under the notorious John Monoco. After her husband’s death, Sarah returned to Woburn. She was the mother of seven children: John, James and Mary (who were baptized in Chelmsford), Deborah, Sarah, Ebenezer and Jonathan (who were baptized in Groton). [For more on the line of John-2, John-1 see here.  The writer/photographer, Wallace Nutting, is from this line].

****NOTE*****
There are two schools of thought on the origin of Ebenezer Nutter (below). One states he was the son of Ebenezer & Ruth (Shattuck) Nutting, born born November 24,1719. A second–that he was the son of James & Mary (Paige) Nutting. I tend toward the latter and present that version here.

BOSTON, Oct. 30.–William L. Nutting of Nashua, N.H. who was chosen president of the New England Music Trades Association at its annual meeting on Oct. 25, is one of the best known retail piano merchants in the East. For over twenty years he has conducted a piano and talking machine store in Nashua. Mr. Nutting handles the Knabe, the Ampico with the Knabe, the Hallet & Davis line and Victrolas. The meeting was held at the Engineers’ Club and was preceded by an enjoyable luncheon at which Melvin L. Morse of Roger Babson’s statistical organization was the principal speaker. Through the kindness of Irving Berlin, the Brock Sisters of the “Music Box Revue” at the Colonial Theatre gave several vocal and piano selections. Thirty-five members of the association were present. Roger S. Brown of the A.M. McPhail Piano company was chosen first vice-president with Harry L. Spencer of Kraft, Bates & Spencer, second vice-president. William F. Merrill was re-elected secretary-treasurer. Mr. Nutting will soon announce the appointments of committee for the ensuing year. [photo]

What Co-Operative Advertising Accomplishes in New England by William L. Nutting, President, New England Music Trade Association. To my mind, an association is just what the word implies–a banding together of representative men in any line of endeavor for the express purpose of not only building up and strengthening the particular work or business in which they are engaged, but also the adoption of such policies in the conduct of their activities as will promote a better understanding on the part of those to whom they sell their product. Thus, in the New England Music Trade Association, whether as manufacturers or as dealers, we owe a service to the music loving people of these six States far greater than merely supplying and distributing pianos and phonographs. We fall far short of our task unless we promote, by every legitimate means, the gospel of good music and its great valuek, both educational and healthful, among our citizens. “Music in the home puts sunshine in the heart” is true in more ways than one. From now on, at this season of the year, men are working harder with less chance of recreation. What better relaxation for their tired minds and bodies than music in some form, preferably at home? Here is where our association, by means of co-operative advertising, can tell the people of New England the story of good music and how best to procure it. Then there is the social side of our organization. That must be recognized, as it tends to create the feeling of good fellowship, which is so essential to the harmony and success of our membership. Our noon luncheons help in this direction. A little later we expect to have a grand get-together of members from all over New England.
