SOME explanatory introduction to so copious a work, as the following, will naturally be required; but it may be short. In 1829 was published, by John Farmer, a Genealogical Register of the first settlers of New England. Beside the five classes of persons prominent, as Governors, Deputy-Governors, Assistants, ministers in all the Colonies, and representatives in that of Massachusetts, down to 1692, it embraced graduates of Harvard College to 1662, members of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company, as also freemen admitted in Massachusetts, alone, to this latter date, with many early inhabitants of other parts of New England and Long Island from 1620 to 1675. Extensive as was the plan of that volume., the author had in contemplation, as explained in his preface, calling it "an introduction to a biographical and genealogical dictionary, "a more ambitious work, that should comprehend sketches of individuals known in the annals of New England, and "a continuation of eminent persons to the present time." Much too vast a project that appeared to me; and the fixing of an absolute limit, like 1692 (the era of arrival of the new charter), for admission of any family stocks, seemed more judicious. I suppose nineteen twentieths of the people of these New England colonies in 1775 were descendants of those found here in 1692, and probably seven eighths of them were offspring of the settlers before 1642. My scope is wider than that of Farmer, of course, as it includes every settler, without regard to his rank, or wealth, since we often find, in the second or third generation, descendants of the most humble (thank God we are all equal before the [[vi]] law) filling honorable stations and performing important services. But far more narrow is my plan than his projected dictionary, because, in a grandson of the first settler, it excludes every other incident after his birth. Space for another than is here given, would have demanded six volumes, while ten volumes would have been needed for a fifth generation; and since we now count eight, nine, or even ten generations of offspring from not a few of the earlier planters on our shores, fifty volumes, each as ponderous as the present, might be filled with details, whereof one tenth would seem ridiculous, one quarter worthless, and one half wholly uninteresting. That New England was first occupied by a civilized people in so short a period before the great civil war broke out in our mother country, though half a century and more after its elementary principles began to ferment, especially in Parliament, and almost in every parish of the kingdom, was a very fortunate event, if it may not be thought a providential arrangement for the happiness of mankind. Even if our views be restricted to the lineal origin of those people here, when the long protracted impolicy of Great Britain drove our fathers into open hostility and forced them to become a nation in 1776, in that century and a half from its colonization, a purer Anglo Saxon race would be seen on this side of the ocean than on the other. Within forty years a vast influx of Irish, with not a few thousand Scotch and Germans has spread over this new country, but certainly more than four fifths of our people still count their progenitors among the ante-revolutionary colonists. From long and careful research I have judged the proportion of the whole number living here in 1775, that deduce their origin from the kingdom of England, i.e. the Southern part of Great Britain, excluding also the principality of Wales, to exceed ninety-eight in a hundred. Every county, from Northcumberland to Cornwall, Kent to Cumberland, sent its contribution of emigrants, and the sparse population of the narrow shire of Rutland had more than one offshoot in New England. But, during that interval, great was the diversity of circumstances between the old and the new country so far as the increase of their respective numbers by incoming of strangers was affected. In 1660 the restoration of Charles II.--in 1685 the expulsion of the two [[vii]] hundred thousand Protestants from France, the desired invasion of William and Mary in 1689, and the settlement of the House of Hanover in 1714, each brought from the continent an infusion upon the original stock, the aggregate of which may not have been less than five or six per cent. of that into which it was ingrafted. Yet hardly more than three in a thousand, for instance, of Scottish ancestry, almost wholly the migration of the heroic defenders of Londonderry, that came, as one hundred and twenty families, in 1718 and 19, could be found in 1775 among dwellers on our soil; a smaller number of the glorious Huguenot exiles above thirty years longer had been resident here, and may have been happy enough by natural increase (though I doubt it) to equal the later band. If these be also counted three in a thousand, much fewer, though earlier still, must be the Dutch that crept in from New York, chiefly to Connecticut, so that none can believe they reach two in a thousand, while something less must be the ratio of Irish. Germany, Italy, Sweden, Spain, Africa and all the rest of the world, together, did not outnumber the Scotch, or the French singly. A more homogeneous stock cannot be seen, I think, in any so extensive a region, at any time, since that when the ark of Noah discharged its passengers on Mount Arafat, except in the few centuries elapsing before the confusion of Babel. What honorable ancestry the body of New England population may assert, has often been proclaimed in glowing language; but the words of William Stoughton, in his Election sermon, 1668, express the sentiment with no less happiness than brevity: ÒGOD SIFTED A WHOLE NATION THAT HE MIGHT SEND CHOICE GRAIN INTO THE WILDERNESS.Ó By an instinct of our nature, we all love to learn the places of our birth, and the chief circumstances in the lives of our progenitors. More liberal than that is the sentiment by which our curious spirit desires knowledge of the same concomitants in the case of great benefactors of mankind; and the hope of ascertaining to a reasonable extent the early history of John Harvard was certainly one of the chief inducements of my visit to England early in 1842. I would have gladly given five hundred dollars to get five lines about him in any relation, private or public. Favored as I was, in this wish, by the countenance [[viii]] and aid of His Excellency, E. Everett, then our minister at London, no trace could be found, except in his signature to the rules on taking his degrees at the University, when he is titled of Middlesex. Perhaps out of such research sprang my resolution to prosecute the genealogical pursuits of John Farmer. In fulfillment of this great undertaking more than fifteen years are already bestowed, and near two years longer may be necessary. Yet the rule imposed, of admitting upon these pages only the dates of birth and marriage, and names of children, of a child born on our side of the ocean to a settler whose tent was pitched here before May 1692, is severely adhered to, with the exception only of so distinguished a man as Cotton Mather; and even this variety may seem forced upon me by Farmer, who had received him to the copious honors of marriage and family. Yet, in many cases, will be named great grandchildren of first comers, and even in a very few, another generation, making a fifth. Explanation of this apparent deviation from my own law is easy. When Gov. Bradford and Gov. Winthrop came here, each brought a son, or sons, and the same is seen of Gov. Dudley and numberless others. Now each child must be rated as an emigrant no less than its father, so that John Brad. ford, John and Adam Winthrop, and Samuel Dudley are equally entitled as their parents to have their grandchildren entered in these pages; but William and Joseph Bradford, and Jaseph Dudley, sons of the Govs. born on our side of the water, shall not have grandchildren in their respective lines. My apparatus for this work will sometimes be found incomplete, yet to a great extent, the public records of Colonies, Counties, and towns, where accessible, have been examined by myself or friends. Of the first ten folio volumes of our Suffolk registry of deeds I had an abstract always lying near me, and these embraced near one third of all the names of New England and more than half those in Massachusetts Colony; indeed for very many years, after the emigration from Europe ceased, only two other counties, Essex and Middlesex had been constituted. lt will be recollected, that large parts of Plymouth, New Hampshire, and Maine were occupied by those who removed from Massachusetts, as was almost the whole of Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New Haven colonies. But [[ix]] modern labors of distinguished antiquaries furnish us almost in full their early records; and more than nine tenths of the names in these separate communities, I think, must have been acquired for this work. But even in my native city of Boston three or four in a thousand may have escaped me, yet probably in the second or third ages from its foundation. For the time of births, marriages, or deaths in each family I have labored assiduously to be correct, in hundreds of cases finding wrong dates given, and commonly without hesitation supplying the true. Where baptism is fixed, by a decent record, weeks, and even months before the date of birth, no fear of injuring the town clerk's credit can restrain belief in his mistake. But the copious source of vexation is the variety growing out of the Old and New Styles. In many thousand instances, I have turned to the perpetual almanac, to be sure that the day of baptism was truly, or not, recorded for Sunday, since the rite could, in the first century of New England, be performed only on that day. By this many printed errors may be corrected. As children are often seen to be baptized in January or February of the same year, by the ancient legal reckoning, that gives the parents' marriage in April or May, several weeks before, in our modern reckoning of the months, instead of so many months after, it is easy enough to put that right by calling those winter months not the eleventh and twelfth of the old year, as the statute absurdity required. Uniformly my chronology begins the year with 1 January; but to produce harmony between dates for the month of March is sometimes very difficult. A few town officers began to change the numerals for the year with the opening of the month, daring to ask, why the first month of 1679 should allow 24 of its 31 days to be drilled under old 1678, while the perverse will of the rulers in fatherland postponed the new-year's day until the 25th; and some records may be found, where the year ended in December; but this monstrous innovation did not begin before 1700, and the startling truth made irregular progress up to 1752, when Lord Macclesfield enlightened the legislature, and Chesterfield charmed it into consistency. No apology would be necessary for filling room with enumeration of contributions from many friends other than such as are [[x]] open to all in printed volumes; but much of what is now within every one's reach had been furnished in MS. to me, and still more is from the same hands, in many cases, given first to the light on my pages. Our town histories are crowding forward, and sometimes in less compact space than might be wished. Windsor, though its History is large, has not equalled ancient Woodbury in bulk, yet seems to contain all, with three-fold of the interest, that might have contented us in the other. The point of research may occupy long time, and be expressed at last in brief phrase, so that no comparison can be made between the result in different parts of the same field of battle from taking only the numbers engaged in each. One initial letter in this dictionary required a year and a quarter for its complete preparation, more than three months were given to each of several names, like Hall or Williams, and the progress of a page has often demanded a week. It seemed my duty to expose every error in our genealogy that has got imbedded in any reputable book; and the suspicion of any such may lead to a long train of inquiries before the refutation can be reached. If my success has been less than my ambition, it has not been owing to lack of industry, or to hurried operation. Printing of the first volume began in Dec. 1858, and was prosecuted without interruption of a day to this time; while for the next volume the careful amanuensis has ready for the compositor two hundred pages, a part of which will be given to the press to-morrow. For the access of new information that reaches us almost every month, a constant watch is kept; and life and health being continued, my contract with the community may be decently discharged in the autumn of 1861. A very extensive catalogue of gentlemen, that might be graced by one of more than half a dozen ladies, could here be supplied, were it useful to mention the smaller as well as the greater contributors to these sheets. To Goodwin, Bond, Harris, father and son, Kingsley, Abbot, Day, Shattuck, Lunt, and Kilbourne, of the respectable file who have passed out of active service, it would not be easy to state the respective proportions of indebtedness; nor could I specify the ratio of benefit derived in my pages from benevolence of the living Babson, Boltwood, Brayton, Budington, Clapp, Day, Edwards, [[xi]] Felt, Field, Herrick, Hoadley, Jackson, Judd, Kelly, King, Kellogg, Lincoln, Locke, Otis, Paige, Patterson, Riker, Sargent, Sewall, Shurtleff, R. D. Smith of Guilford, Staples, Vinton, Wentworth, Whitmore, Willard, Wyman, and twice as many more. Not one of the living or dead could complain of my declaration, that from the distinguished antiquary of Northampton the acquisition exceeds that of any other ten contributors. Early in 1846 I had solicited the benefit of uniting his name with mine in producing these volumes; but while he shrank from the responsibility of such unbroken labor, I can offer several hundred pages of letters to vouch for his sympathy, and encourage my perseverance. 19 APRIL, 1860. [[vol. 4, iii]] CLOSING ADDRESS. THE task, that, near twenty years since, was assumed by me, is now ended; and no regret is felt for the time devoted to it. Pleasure and duty have been equally combined. In the result some exultation might be felt, if suceess rewarded diligence, and proficiency had always followed patience; but in parts of so wide a range around genealogy, as this of New England, frequent failures ought to be anticipated, since the triumphs even within the narrow space traversed, in their long campaigns, by Bond or Shattuck, Judd or Goodwin, proved imperfect. Gleaners may find reward in following even their footsteps. For a partial indication of the ample assistance from modern copious correspondence, a reference to my preface in Vol. I. may seem sufficient; yet it appears requisite, in this valedictory obeisance to subscribers, to desire their forgiveness for the awkwardness they may discover, that among the ten or twelve thousand items of improvement in or increase upon the first text, as herein set forth, not a few hundred additions to additions with a score or two of corrections for corrections are interspersed. Of such materials the History of Watertown has subjoined 303 pages to its first 672; and parallel to such overflow might always be expected in a larger work, though not in exact proportion to its size. To exhauust the vocabulary of a civilized nation in a living tongue would appear impossible, for we all know, that new streams are constantly flowing into it from sources before unknown; and similar sypplies, by analogy, in a dictionary to set forth the origin of our families subsisting one hundred and seventy years ago, may naturally arise. [[vol. 4, iv]] Unavoidable omissions in these two thousand five hundred closely marshalled pages ought, therefore, to be expected; but if neither residence nor time were given, no right to a place for a new surname on my page would be yielded, though popular opinion traced the pretender to a Plantagenet, or his veins swelled with all the blood of all the Howards. Half a million, I presume, of those incidents may be found in this work. Blanks, not above two or three in the thousand, I believe, may remain in the myriads of names of family or baptism, and, I hope, the erroneous may only slightly outnumber the deficient. Some notes of events and of men have been lost, probably, though only a single instance, but of half a line, occurs to my recollection, and this is more cause of sorrow, than surprise, when I remember how many hundred have been written twice, thrice, and even four times over. To a few, who consult these volumes, such vacancies may give no disquiet, as thereby room was gained for a little general biography or historical criticism in place of the multitudinous ocean of numerals, or names as little discriminated as fortemque Gyan, fortemque Cloanthum. But never was such occasion made, however easily found by one who will feel pleasant surprise at a rare deviation from predominant dulness. I have dared to express, in a very few instances, my sense of the need of correction in old contemporary statements of history, either public or private, and more gladly to detect the modern adoption of idle traditions that kept long out of sight, when their small value would not have saved, the perpetuation of trifing fictions. May not some degree of favor be extended to my departure from the narrow circle of universal genealogy to snatch a few additional lines or some and sentences for others bearing prominent names like Bellingham, Burrows, Chauncey, Clark, Davenport, Dudley, Eaton, Endicott, Goffe, Hoar, Hopkins, Hull, Jackson, Johnson, Leverett, Mather, Osgood, Paddy, Parker, Phips, Pratt, Rogers, Saltonstall, Scroop, Sherman, Smith, Temple, Welde, Whalley, Wigglesworth, Williams, Wilson, and Winthrop. The prosecution of this work has continued without interruption in this long course of years, except twice, in both cases from illness, first, short but severe, more than fourteen years [[vol. 4, v]] ago, next, lighter and longer, less than four years since; yet from the time printing of the volumes began, Dec. 1858, no day has passed without progress, except the legal holidays By the majority who in careless hours may turn over these columns, the scrupulous diligence of the printer will justly be more observed than the research of the author, who should feel sufficient reward, if his countrymen acknowledgd they have no further claim to use of his pen after the owner's reaching so near the age of fourscore. Still my rejoicing should be rater, that my service is finished, than that I have no more to do. No slight vexation arose from defeat of my utmost vigilance in gathering the desired additions to this immense array of names, collected while the volumes have been passing under the press; but it was soothed by reflecting how many would show no regard to the defect, and better still how liberal would be the allowance of the few that duly weighed the excuse by making the suffering their own.

BY the number of more or less imperfect words, that can be not much less than three hundred thousand in these volumes, very great saving, of space was expected. Caution was given me, in the Genealog. Reg. XII. 362 against the woeful disfiguring that would follow, if the specimen, offered by the publishers toattract subscribers, were to be taken for a sample. As most of these curtailments were common however in similar works, I dared to adhere to the plan, which has not,perhaps, repelled a dozen patrons; and even enlarged my list by addition of one that would occur about two thousand limes. The word freeman, or freemen, may be seen, in its new shape, freem. without offence, I hope, to the taste of any subscriber.Familiar to all readers must be the short form given to our names of the months, nine in twelve, only May, June, and July having their whole beauty; and yet of these nine words the recurrence would probably show the mutilations on my pages to be fifteen or twenty thousand. Titles are always permitted even in other books to appear in brief, as Gov. or Esq. and when rep. may stand for representative, most who turn over a dictionary of this sort will approve the economy. It may happen that, by the accident of the printer's type, or my own carelessness, some word may be abbreviated that had better been printed in full, yet I submit, that the page will be seldom disfigured by such liberty, and probably the reader would not change more than once in five hundred examples. Confusion will not be caused so often as that, I hope; but if a pause be necessary, we all feel the same thing in turning to an English dictionary for definition of words only. Nobody reads continuously from page to page, even in the affluent vocabulary of Johnson; and when a sincere desire to verify a genealogy, or ascertain a special relationship, is felt, the time will not be grudgingly reckoned, if a sentence be not printed out in every word, but with one third or more of those words curtailed. In the following list every word thus abbrev. may not be found, because the shortening may by a judicious reader be referred to: class comprising many, as the adverbial terminations, ly, bly, wanting after casi. and honora.; or the perfect tense or participles of verbs, ed; or in substantives, er and ent.; or in either part of speech, ensu. mak. preced. and tak. without ing or en. For many having, different meanings, as ch. for child, or children, or church; d. for death, died, or daughter; gr. for grand, great, grant, or graduate; mo. for mother or month, the one intended may be trusted to the student's sagacity. But occasions of error in names of men or women I have scrupulously avoided, so that only one surname can be seen in my pages to be abbrev. and but a single name of bapt. Eliz. [[about 1696 occurrences in vol. 1, filled out by RAK for clarity]] can hardly be mistaken, nor will the lamentation be loud, when a man's name so distinguished as that of the first Gov. of Mass. is spelled Winth. [[filled out in vol. 1 by RAK, about 88 times]]. Geographical designations are forever meeting our eyes in briefer form than the legal one; and he has poor supply of current letters that requires to be told what shires in Eng. are meant by Bucks, Herts, or Notts.

DANIEL, Simsbury, 1683, m. prob. in 1687, Mary, d. of Samuel Pinney of the same, had Mary, bapt. 16 Jan. 1698; Thankful, 10 Apr. foll. and other ch. perhaps bef. and after, certain.

EDWARD, Medfield, s. of Henry the first. b. in Eng. freem. 1654, by w.

He was much employ. in public duties, ens. selectman for many yrs. rep. in the two first Gen. Cts. 1689, after overthrow of Andros, and d. 12 Nov. 1716. His w. had d. 3 Mar. 1676; but he had sec. w. whose name is not seen. His will of 19 May 1715, pro. 3 Dec. 1716, in our reg. XIX. 225, taking notice that his w. was provid. for bef. their m. and that his s. Jonathan, and John were, formerly, supplied by him with lds. and Edward with movab. and money, directs now, that his prop. be div. in nine equal parts, whereof the childr. of his s. Eliashib dec. to have two, James, and Henry, ea. two, and his d3. Lydia Daniel, Sarah Turner, and Mehitable Faxon, ea. one. EDWARD, Windsor, m. 25 May 1660, Elizabeth d. of Thomas Buckland, and d. 15 Aug,. 1683, leav. only ch. Mary, b. 28 Aug. 1671. ELEAZER, Medfield, eldest s. of the first Henry of the name, by w.

Ann had Abigail, b. 15 Sept. 1638; Bethia, 10 June 1640; and Nathaniel, 16 Mar. 1643. In Aug. 1641 he had leave to go home on business; but if he went, he came back next yr. Worthington, 103. Again he went home, and, in Oct. 1651, by his atty. sold est. at D. GEORGE, Branford, m. 5 Sept. 1657, Mary wid. of Lesley Bradfield, I presume, as sec. w. and d. prob. 1675. His will of 1670 names w. and s. John only, but this s. was by former w. it may be suppos. for he made his will 10 Oct. 1677, and d. that yr. giv. his prop. to Noah Rogers and others, hav. no near relat. GEORGE, Watertown, by w. Frances had John, b. 6 Aug. 1645; George, 1647; Daniel; Joseph, 6 Mar. 1657; and Mary; rem. to Cambridge farms, now Lexington, and d. 10 Oct. 1696. GEORGE, Cambridge, that part now Lexington, s. of the preced. m. 20 Jan. 1684, Martha, d. of John Fiske of Watertown, had George, b. 28 Apr. 1685; Martha, 10 Jan. 1687; John, 2 Sept. 1688; of wh. three the Watertown ch. rec. at [[10]] various times, show the bapt. Nathaniel; Sarah; both bapt. 12 June 1698 at W.; Benjamin, b. 20 Dec. 1701; and Bond thinks there may have, also, been Abigail, and Ann. Henry, Braintree, came early to our country, and tradit. says from Braintree, in Co. Essex in 1632, but widely diverse is the origin by ano. tradit. had gr. in Feb. 1641, of 40 acres by vote of Boston, of wh. Braintree was part, i. e. the portion for ten heads. Perhaps he was the first clk. of the town, after separat. from Boston, tho. more likely is it that his s. of the same name had the honor; and he d. or was bur. 8 Oct. 1646, leav. by tradit. eight s. yet only five are nam. in his will, 1646, pro. 8 June 1647, where appear Peter, John, Joseph, Edward, Samuel, and d. Ursula. Of this d. as tradit. took no notice, it may be that the number eight applied to s. means in truth ch. seven s. and one d. but names eno. for the s. may be seen, and certainly one s good, if not two beyond the deviees in the will, as Henry, Thomas, Jonathan, in some reports call. William. The inscript. on the monu. erect. by his descend, John Adams, sec. Presid. of the U. S. exhibits the popular story with characterist. strength: ÒIn mem. of Henry Adams wh. took his flight from the Dragon persecution, in Devonsh. Eng. and alighted with eight s, near Mt. Wollaston. One of the s. ret. to Eng. and, after tak. some time to explore the country, four rem. to Medfield, and the neighb. towns, two to Chelmsford. One only, Joseph, wh. lies here at his left hand, remain, here; wh. was an orig, prop. in the townsh. of Braintree incorpo. 1639." HENRY, Braintree, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. a. 1604 as is thot, may, rather than his f. be regard. as the town clk. of 1640, m. 17 Nov. 1643, Elizabeth d. of Moses Paine, had Eleazer, b. 5 Aug. 1644; Jasper, 23 June 1647; rem. to that part of Dedham, wh. bec.

Jacob; Daniel; Abraham, 10 Nov. 1687; John; Ann; Elizabeth 16 Aug. 1692; and Sarah. Some of them, however, had perhaps been b. in a neighb. town. He was rep. for S. 1711, 14, and 17, in Nov. of wh. last he d. at the Ct. in Boston. [[11]] JAMES, Plymouth, s. of John of the same, wh. was of the first comers, went, 1643, to Marshfield, soon after to Scituate, there m. 16 July 1646, Frances, d. of William Vassall, had William, b. 16 May 1647; Ann, 18 Apr. 1649; Richard, 19 Apr. 1651, d. soon; Mary, 27 Jan. 1653; and Margaret, 1654; all bapt. at the sec. ch. of S.

JEREMY, Braintree, perhaps 1632, rem. soon to Cambridge, then call. Newtown, freem. 6 May 1635, rem. next yr. to Hartford, had three ws. of wh. the first is unkn. by name, by her he had Samuel, b. it is said 1643, bapt. certain. 23 Nov. 1645; and perhaps more. His sec. w. Rebecca, wid. of Samuel Greenhill, d. 1678, and by her he had other ch. prob. Ann, wh. m. Robert Sanford; Elinor, wh. m. Nathaniel Willet; and John, unless one or two were by former w.

He long kept the ordinary, and d. 11 Aug. 1683, in his will, made seven days bef. he div. his est. half to childr. of s. John, and half to those of d. Willet. His wid. was 77 yrs. old at her d. 25 June 1715, and, no doubt, had provis. from the est. JOHN, Plymouth, one of the first comers, arr. in the Fortune, 9 Nov. 1621, m.

But Hannah d. early in 1661, 25 Jan. acc. Mitchell, 25 Feb. by Harris Epit. 169; and Daniel, d. 14 May 1685. Ano. Daniel had preced. him, but liv. not, I presume, long eno. to be bapt. He was a millwright, and Dr. Bond conject. that he was s. of George of Watertown, and when that was seen to be impossib. he suppos. he was br. So numberless are the shoots of this name, that I dare not foll. even so judicious a leader in this expedit. That he was s. of Henry the first, as amiable credulity would assume, is highly improb. since he came twenty yrs. or little less after that great N. E. progenitor, and so long outliv. him dying betw. June and Oct. 1706, and his w. still liv. Rebecca m. 24 Nov. 1669, Nathaniel Patten, and d. 18 Dec. 1677; Mary m. John Eames of Watertown, and d. 1681. [[12]] Inconsistencies appear in the fam. geneal. as to b. of her and her br. John. JOHN, Chelmsford 1654, had been of Concord 1630, has been sometimes thot. s. of the first Henry; but the conject. is uncert. JOHN, Marshfield, s. perhaps, of John of Plymouth, m. 27 Dec. 1654, Jane James, and had Joseph, Martha, and perhaps other ch. JOHN, Hartford, s. prob. eldest, of Jeremy of the same, had Rebecca, b.

JONATHAN, Medfield, call. sen. when his inv. of 15 Feb. 1692, was produc. at Prob. Ct. had been thot. s. of the first Henry, tho. no other circumstance is to be discern. in support of such assumpt. than that Edward of M. wh. was a s. of Henry gave to his eldest s. this name of Jonathan. Scrutiny has been applied, and Vinton, 296, could find two ws. Elizabeth and Mary, but ment. no ch. JONATHAN, Boston, blockmaker, of wh. I learn from his will, made 1 Apr. 1707, pro. 8 May next, that his w. was Rebecca, and that [[13]] he had Samuel, eldest s. beside Jonathan, Nathaniel, and James, and four ds. Rebecca, Dorcas, Mary, and Lydia. His w. was d. of James Andrews of Falmouth, driv. up by the war. JONATHAN, Medfield, eldest s. of Edward of the same, m. 20 Mar. 1678, Mary Ellis, d. prob. of Thomas of the same; but my acquisit. reach no further. JOSEPH, Braintree, perhaps youngest s. of the first Henry, b. in Eng. a. 1626, was a maltster, freem. 1653 or 5, his name appearing on both years, as the wonderful carelessness of Secr. Rawson admits thirty, if not thirty-one (if we include Dwight), out of thirty-two of the earlier yr. to be reinsert. two yrs. later with the sole addit. of one name at the top and one at the foot of the list, m. 26 or 29 Nov. 1650, Abigail (not Mary, as Alden has it), d. of Gregory Baxter (not, as is giv. by Thayer, of John, wh. was her br.), had Hannah, b. 13 Nov. 1652; Joseph, 24 Dec. 1654; John, 13 Jan. 1657, or 11 Feb. it being, uncert. wh. date is prefer. on the rec.

John Bass jun.; Bethia m. 1680, John Webb; Mary m. 16 Dec. 1686, Samuel Webb; and Mehitable m. 21 July 1697, Thomas White. His will, of 18 July 1694, gives no ment. of s. Samuel or Jonathan, but provides for the others and the five ds. using the name of hs. for all but the last. JOSEPH, Braintree, eldest s. of the preced. m. 20 Feb. 1682, Mary Chapin, perhaps d. of Josiah, had Mary, b. 6 Feb. foll. and Abigail, 17 Feb. 1684. This w. d. 14 June 1687, and he next m. Hannah, d. of John Bass, by wh. he had Joseph, 1 Jan. 1690, H.

This w. d. 24 Oct. 1705, and he d. at the mature age of 81, on 12 Feb. 1736; and his wid. Elizabeth (by wh. he had Caleb, 26 May 1710, that d. in few days ;) d. 14 Feb. 1739, aged 71. JOSEPH, Cambridge, s. of John of the same, m. 21 Feb. 1688, Margaret, d. of Thomas James, of Sudbury, had Joseph, b. 1689, wh. liv. to the age of 85; Daniel, 1690; Cherry, if such be a possib. name in that day, bapt. 31 Jan. 1697; John, 18 Apr. 1637; and Abigail. [[14]] MOSES, Sherborn, s. of Henry the sec. m. 15 Apr. 1681, Lydia d. of Jonathan Whitney of the same, had Benoni, b. 3 Nov. foll., Lydia, 2 Feb. 1684; Elizabeth 18 Sept. 1686, d. young; Hannah, 8 Feb. 1688; Elizabeth again, 25 Oct. 1689; Moses, 26 Nov. 1691; James, 7 July 1693; Isaac, 4 Mar. 1695; and Abigail, 7 Sept. 1697; was selectman 1701, and d. 1724. NATANIEL, Newport 1639, may be that one of Weymouth 1642, wh. had Abraham, b. 16 Jan. 1643. NATHANIEL, Boston, turner, m. 24 Nov. 1652, Elizabeth d. of Philemon Portmort, but whether she d. soon, and he had ano. w. Sarah is wholly uncert. for one Nathaniel of B. d. Oct. 1675, and his w. Sarah d. May 1685. Ano. NATHANIEL, Boston, blockmaker, if the modern copy of supposed rec. contempo. may be confided in, as in about nine tenths of its contents it may be, by w. Mary alone had Nathaniel, b. 10 Sept. 1653; Mary, 20 May 1655; Sarah, 9 Aug. 1657; David, 30 June 1659; Joseph, 19 June 1661; Elizabeth 21 Mar. 1662, d. soon; Benjamin, 10 Dec. 1660; Elizabeth again, 2 Oct. 1667; Benjamin, again, 27 May 1671; Isaac, 7 Nov. 1673, and Mary, again, 23 Sept. 1677. No small part of this may have confirmat. in his will of 22 Mar. 1690, pro. 8 May next, in wh. his w. Mary, and s. Joseph and Isaac are well provid. for, as also d. Mary, wid. of Joseph Hipdich; Sarah, w. of Richard Hunnewell, and Elizabeth w. of Ebenezer Chaffin, but all subject to the discret. of their mo. and he takes notice that his s. Nathaniel had not only rec. his share of prop. and more, but owed him or money lent, and refus. to acknowl. the debt, so that out of his fatherly regard he can give him but one shil. See rec. in Vol. XL 136. He d. 30 Mar. Perhaps his eldest s. NATHANIEL was a soldier in Philip's war; of Turner's comp. tho. rather is it more prob. that he liv. at Charleston, m. Hannah, d. of Nicholas Wilmot, wh. remembers her in his will of 27 Sept. 1684. He had Nathaniel, b. 12 Jan. 1681; Daniel, or David, 19 Nov. 1682; Nicholas, 8 Oct. 1684, d. soon; Hannah, 3 Oct. 1686, bapt.6 Mar. 1687; Ann, 15, bapt. 19 Aug. 1688, d. next mo.; Ann, again, bapt. 2 Aug. 1691, d. under 16 yrs.; Wilmot, 21 Aug. 1692; Mar, 29 Aug. 1702, d. under 13 yrs.; Abigail, b. 17, bapt. 21 Apr. 1706, d. under 2 yrs.; Ann, again, 31 Mar. 1708, d. soon; and Ann, again, 2, bapt. 15 Jan. 1710. Of ano. NATHANIEL of Charlestown, blacksmith, possib. but not prob. s. of Samuel the first, who m. Ann d. of Nathaniel Coolidge of Watertown, I see so little reason to believe his claim to adm. on my page with his ch. that he must be left in his position with Bond 747. PETER, Medfield, s. of Henry the first, b. in Eng. freem. 1650, by w. Rachel had Peter, b. 20 July 1653, wh. was a physician at Medway, of wh.

ROBERT, Salem 1638, a tailor, by one tradit. brot. from DeFonsh. by ano. prob. of equal value, from the far distant Holderness in Co.

Hinman, in his new Edit. of 1852. But as he gives the same day for d. of the w. of Benjamin, the elder br. and the bapt. name of ea. was the same, without daring to guess wh. of the two is correct, I venture to doubt, that he fell into a very natural error, not observ. the repetit.

II. p. 584. JOHN, Rehoboth, had Hannah, b. 10 Oct. 1673. ALBESON, or ALLBERSON, JOHN, Yarmouth, perhaps s. of Nicholas, m. 16 Mar. 1697, Elizabeth Folland, had Jeconia, b. 2 Jan. 1698, d. next mo. and David, 1 Nov. 1699. NICHOLAS, Scituate 1636, disting. as "the Swede," had ch. as tradit. goes, wh. he hims. bapt. but Deane found on rec. nothing relat. to the man, exc. that, in Philip's war, the Ind. burned his house, 20 May 1676, and the town voted a contrib. towards rebuild. it. ALBOROW, ALBOROUGH, ALBRO, ALDBURY, ALBROE, or ALSBERRIE, JOHN, Portsmouth, R. I. 1655, was an Assist. 1671, and one of the counc. appoint. by K. James Il. for his Gov. Andros, 1687, as Hutch. I. 354 gives the list. Gladly would we learn more of so promin. a man, ancest. of the Rev. John A. Albro, D. D. of Cambridge, and speak with confid. if rec. would permit. Very reasona. may be the conject. that he came, as a youth of 14 yrs. under charge of William Freeborne, in the Francis from Ipswich, 1634, to Boston. Freeborne was, we kn. of Boston, until the sad dissens. a. Mrs. Hutchinson, 1637, when he withdrew in comp. of so many others with Gov. Coddington to purchase R. I. What presumption may be drawn, from the mural tablet to Alborough in the ch. of Stratford on Avon, whither the admir. of Shakespeare annual. resort, that this R.

ALCOCK, FRANCIS, Newbury, came in the Bevis 1638, aged 26, in the employm. of Richard Dummer, as the Eng. custom ho. rec. tells; but that is the sole authority for call. him of Newbury, nor is any more kn. of him. GEORGE, Roxbury, came in the fleet with Govr. Winthrop 1630, with his u. a sis. of Rev. Thomas Hooker, but leav. only s. at home, desir. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. of that yr. and was rec. 18 May foll. Bef. the gather. of ch. at R. he was deac. at Dorchester, and his w. d. the first seas. He was a physician, rep. at the first ct. 14 May 1634, and after, as well as deac. for Roxbury ch. He went home to bring his s. John, and at the same or foll. visit got sec. w. Elizabeth by wh. he had Samuel, b. 16 Apr. 1637, H. C. 1659; and at his d. a. 30 Dec. 1640, the ch. rec. says he "left a good savor behind him, the poor of the ch. much bewailing his loss." Of his will, made ten days bef. an abstr. may be read in Geneal. Reg. II. 104. His wid. in Apr. foll. m. Henry Dingham, or Dengham, or Dengayne, a surgeon of Watertown. JOB, York 1666, s. of John of the same, made a lieut. 1677, and a magistr. under authority of Mass. 1678, and capt. 1681; by creation of William and Mary, in the new Chart. under adv. of Increase Mather, 1691 made a counsellor, but was next yr. left out, on the popul. revulsion against his patron. Hutch. 11. 15, says only, that he was of Maine, yet strange is it, that both he, and Douglas, I. 486 should falsely spell his name, Alcot, and stranger still, that Mather should have put that error into his charter, prob. for the sake of euphony. JOHN, Kittery, adm. freem. of Mass. 1652, prob. rem. to York, had to div. his est. 1675, two s. Joseph, and Job, five ds. viz. Mary Twisden, w. of Samuel, perhaps, or of John the sec. Elizabeth Banks w. prob. of Richard; Hannah Snell, w. perhaps, of George; Sarah Gittings, whose h. is a stranger to me; and Lydia Dummer, perhaps a maiden, sole ch. of ano. d. Yet conject. may be wearied in finding the connect. Joseph, adm. at the same time, was prob. his s. but Samuel may not have been. JOHN, Roxbury, s. of George of the same, b. in Eng. early in 1627, H. C. 1646, was a physician, but after leav. coll. went to Hartford, prob. on call of his uncle Hooker, to teach a sch. some time. He m.

John Phillips of the same, and outliv. him. THOMAS, Boston, br. of George, came, no doubt, in the fleet with Winthrop for his number in the list of ch. mem. is 46, by w. Margery had Mary, bapt. 3 Nov. 1635, d. young; Elizabeth 10 Dec. 1637, d. soon; rem. to Dedham, there had Elizabeth again, b. 4 Oct. 1638; Sarah, 28 Dec. 1639; Hannah, 20 May 1642; Mary, again, 4 Oct. 1644; Rebecca, 1646; and ret. to Boston had John, 2, bapt. 6 July 1651 ; perhaps Philip, intermed. He was freem. 6 May 1635, and d. 14 Sept. 1657. His wid. m. 16 Nov. 1660, acc. the rec. wh. I think should be 1659, John Benham; and of the ds. Elizabeth m. 6 May 1656 Joseph Soper, and Mary m. 27 Sept. 1664, James Robinson of Dorchester. THOMAS, Hartford.-- See Olcott. [[23]] ALDBURG, John, a youth of 14, came in the Francis, 1634, under William Freeborne. See Alborow. ALDEN, DAVID, Duxbury, s. of John of the Mayflower, was rep. 1689 and 90, after the overthrow of Andros; but Farmer was, I doubt, under mistake in making him Assist. 1690; and Winsor follow. him. His w. was Mary, d. of Constant Southworth, by wh. he had Benjamin, Samuel, and Alice, beside Ruth. JOHN, Plymouth, passeng. in the first ship 1620, had not been assoc. at Leyden with the pilgrims, but was hired at Southampton as a cooper, with right of staying on this side or return. m. 1623, Priscilla, d. of William Mullins, wh. as well as his w. d. the first Feb. after land. We kn. only eight ch. by their names, John, b. perhaps 1623; Joseph, David, Jonathan, Elizabeth, Sarah, Ruth, and Mary; but in Bradford we find h. and w. liv. in 1650, "and have eleven ch. and their eldest d. hath five ch." Of these in May 1627, at the div. of cattle, only John and Elizabeth are named, so that the other nine were b. later, but their dates of b. are not heard. He liv. most of his days at Duxbury, was rep. 1641, yet had been chos. an Assist. for the Col. 1633, to Gov. Winslow, and serv. 42 yrs. in that office, to every Gov. after Carver. Idly would tradit. attempt to magnify his merit, as the first to jump upon the rock at Plymouth land. when he was not of the party in the shallop that discov. the harbor, but contin. on board ship at Cape Cod. He was the last male surv. of the signers of the compact in that harbor, Nov. 1620, and d. 12 Sept. 1687, aged 84, or, by other acco. 88. Of the ds. Elizabeth m. 18 Dec. 1644, William Peabody and d. 3 May 1717, aged 94, says her gr. stone; Sarah m. Alexander Standish; Ruth m. 12 May (Winsor has it 3 Feb.) 1657, John Bass of Braintree; and Mary m. Thomas Delano. JOHN, Duxbury, eldest s. of the preced. rem. to Boston, where the rec. says, perhaps erroneous. by w. Elizabeth he had Mary, b. 17 Dec. 1659, for that date may be of d. of his u. since 1 Apr. foll. he m. (I suppose as sec. w.) Elizabeth d. of William Phillips, and wid. of Abiel Everill, had John, b. 20 Nov. foll. d. soon; Elizabeth 9 May 1662, d. at 2 mos.; John, again, 12 Mar. 1663; William, 16 Mar. 1664, d. soon; Elizabeth again, 9 Mar. 1665; William, again, 5 Mar. 1666, d. soon; Zechariah, 8 Mar. 1667, d. soon; William, again, 10 Sept. 1664; Nathaniel, 1670; Zechariah, again, 18 Feb. 1673, H. C. 1692; Nathan, 17 Oct. 1677; and Sarah, 27 Sept. 1681. In the witchcraft madness of 1692, he suffer. many weeks imprisonm. as Caleb and Hutch. II. 48, relate, yet recover. from the popul. persecut. and d. 14 Mar. 1702. His d. Elizabeth m. John Walley, possib. gr.s. of Rev. Thomas; and next 30 Apr. 1702, Simon Willard, but this union is not clear to me. As his s. John had w. Elizabeth it is diffic. from the Boston rec. to tell wh. John and Elizabeth had the latest b. It might as easily be infer. that the witchcraft belong. to the [[24]] s. as the f., and indeed Thayer in his Geneal. makes the younger the suffer. in wh. he is foll. by Winsor, contrary to the general import of Calef and Hutchinson. With them I concur, for the s. was only 29 yrs. old, and more venerable age is usually found liable to assaults by the great adversary for such cases. JONATHAN, Duxbury, br. of the preced. m. 10 Dec. 1672, Abigail, d. of Andrew Hallet, had Andrew, Jonathan, John and Benjamin; but no dates are found for either. The two former, it is said, went to Lebanon. He was bur. 17 Feb. 1698, aged 70, says fam. tradit. and his wid. d. 17 Aug. 1725, aged 81. JOSEPH, Duxbury, br. prob. elder, of the preced. m. Mary, d. of Moses Simmons, rem. early to Bridgewater, had Isaac; Joseph, b. 1668; John, and, perhaps Elizabeth and Mary; and d. 8 Feb. 1697. The ds. were m. one bef. and one after. From the passeng. in the Mayflower are fill. with details of descend. 28 pages of Thayer's Geneal. and in Collect. of Epitaphs, by Rev. Timothy Alden, compris. in 5 vols. is seen large proof of filial gratitude. Of this name eight had been gr. at Harv. in 1834, and two at Yale. ALDERMAN, JOHN, Dorchester 1634, Salem 1636, when Jane, prob. his w. was mem. of the ch. had gr. of ld. at S. 1637, freem. 22 May 1639, d. 1657. See Winthrop I. 144; and Felt, Ann. I. 171. WILLIAM, Windsor, 1672, soon after at Simsbury, m. 1679, Mary, d. of John Case of S. had Mary, b. 22 Sept. 1680; Thomas, 11 Jan. 1683; William, 20 Oct. 1686; Sarah, 1692; John, 1695; and Joseph, 1697; and d. at Farmington, 1697. His wid. m. 30 Mar. 1699, James Hillyer. ALDIS, DANIEL, Dedham, s. of deac. John of the same, m. 23 Nor. 1685, Sarah Paine, perhaps d. of the sec. Moses of Braintree, had Sarah, b. 16 Oct. 1686; Daniel, 2 Dec. 1687, d. at 3 mos.; Ann, 21 Aug. 1692; Sarah, 27 Aug. 1695. His w. d. 17 Apr. 1711; and he d. 21 Jan. 1717; and this marks the last appear. of the fam. name on the town rec. His will made two days bef. names w. Sarah, s. in law William Bacon, d. Ann w. of Jonathan Onion, and gr.s. William Bacon; and may be seen in Vol. XX.166.

He was deac. and his w. d. 12 Nov. 1686; and he d. 21 Dec. 1700. Sarah m. 26 Apr. 1675, Gershom Hubbard; and Mary m. 21 Feb. 1679, Nathaniel Richards. JOHN, Dedham, s. of the preced. by w. Mary had Ruth, b. 14 Aug. 1695; and no more is heard of h. w. or ch. in D. but he had liv. at Wrentham, m. 23 May 1682, Mary Winchester; had Sarah, b. 26 Feb. foll.; Ethan, 11 May 1685; and Hannah, 19 Feb. 1688. NATHAN, Dedham, with w. [[25]] join. the ch. early in 1640 and 1641, respectiv. They had brot. from Eng. certain.

Sarah he had Joseph, b. 20 Sept. 1676; and Jacob, 27 Dec. 1677; but that w. d. 25 Feb. foll. as is said. Perhaps there were two. JOSEPH, Braintree, perhaps br. of the preced. m. 26 Feb. 1662, Patience Osborne of Weymouth, perhaps d. of John, had Joseph, b. 14 July 1663; and Sarah, 27 Oct. 1677.

With spell. of Aldrich four had been in 1829, gr. at Brown Univ. and none at Harv. or Yale. Perhaps this name bee. Eldridge sometimes. ALEWORTH, FRANCIS, Dorchester, freem. 18 May 1631, went home the foll. yr. tho. he had been by the Court of Assist. in July, chos. lieut. of the comp. Ano. man with this surname, at the Court in Mar. 1631, was order. to go, "as unmeet. to inhab. here."

DAVID, Northampton, br. of Robert, bec. 3d h. of Elizabeth wid. of Samuel Langton, d. of wid. Elizabeth Copley. GEORGE, Windsor, m. 18 Mar. 1644, Susanna Sage, as by Parsons, in Geneal. Reg. V. 63, the surname is giv. (whose correctness is doubt. by scrupul. readers of the orig. rec. when the bapt. name is Susanna alone, not as print. "Su Sage;" and beside the date of the m. is not clear on that rec.) had (he says) John, b. 25 July 1645; (yet high [[26]] authority advises me, that the oldest ch. was prob.

EDWARD, Dover 1675, was s. of Hope of Boston, as such, sold 13 Nov. 1678, large est. at Falmouth, now Portland, devis. to him from his f. after dilig. inquiry I can learn no more of him. ELEAZER, emb. 27 May 1679 in the Prudence and Mary, to come to Boston from Eng. but his visit may have been only a trans. one, or he may have gone beyond the bounds of N.

GEORGE, Sandwich 1643, perhaps s. of the preced. b. in Eng. then in the list of those able to bear arms; may have been of Newport 1639, and at S. had (by w.

GIDEON, Swanzey 1669, rem. to Boston during Philip's war, and after it to Milford, there was a promin. man, and d. early in 1693. At Swanzey, [[31]] by w. Sarah he had John, b. 24 Oct. 1673, wh. d. bef. his f. He spell. Allin, left wid. and five ch. Gideon; Sarah, and George, tw. 18 yrs. old; Hannah, 7, and Abigail, 4.

ISAAC, Rehoboth, m. 30 May 1673, Mary Bowen, perhaps d. of Henry, had Isaac, b. 3 Jan. 1675; Catharine, 18 Jan. of uncert. yr. the rec. being partially worn away.

He d. 27 Sept. 1673. Some reason is perceiv. for holding this man to be br. of Rev. John Allin of Dedham. JAMES, Boston, one of the eject. min. was s. of a min. in Hampsh. and b. 24 June 1632, as is told, ent. of Magdalen Hall, 16 Mar. 1649, and of New Coll. Oxford, procced. A.

[[32]] and Sarah, 11 Sept. 1679, wh. d. at 3 yrs. After some yrs. preach. there, he was sett. in the midst of gr. disquiet, at the first ch. on the same day, with Davenport (9 Dec. 1668), in vindicat. of those charact. he was long a strenuous oppon. of the third, or O. S. ch. that sprang, out of the unhappy circumst. by wh. he was brot. from New Haven. His last w. d. 25 Nov. 1705, and he d. 22 Sept. 1710. Dunton says, his s. James was a min. in England d. at Northampton, but perhaps he is wrong, for he was young, and our Coll. Catal. never gave him the Italics, tho. it marks him as Socius. See 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. II. 101 and 3 M. H. C. VIII. 250. Both of the Biogr. Dict. Eliot, briefly, and Allen, more at large, explain the difficult. of his course. JAMES, Sandwhich, perhaps s. of George the first, had Amey, b. 22 Dec. 1665; and Abigail, 28 Sept. 1667, and prob. sev. others, yet it may be that some were b. after rem. to Tisbury, had w.

JEREMIAH, Salisbury, s. of William the first of the same. took o. of alleg. 2 Dec. 1677, m. 1686, Ann, prob. d. of Thomas Bradbury. JOHN, Plymouth 1633, was perhaps of Scituate, 1646, there d. 1662, prob. Sept. as his inv. bears date 25 of that mo. leav. wid. Ann and s. John; but his nuncup. will, made two days bef. his d. in wh. one ho. is giv. to Josiah Litchfield (then a youth) in wh. the testator liv. and ano. to his w. was not pro. until 2 June of next yr. and that would now-a-days seem a dangerous delay. See Geneal. Reg. VI. 94. JOHN, Dorchester 1632, kept an inn, and was punish. for drunkenness of those to wh. that yr. he sold. JOHN, Charleston, came, perhaps, in the Abigail, 1635, aged 30, with w. Ann, 30, from some part of Kent, join. the ch. 22 May 1641, and was adm. freem. 2 June next; by w.

Samuel, 29 Nov. 1656; and Sarah, again, 11 May 1659, d. at 2 mos. He was of ar. co. 1639, and, in 1657, the richest man in the town, a capt. and rep. 1668, and d. 27 Mar. 1675. His d. Mary m. perhaps Nathan Rainsford, and next Joshua Hobart. Elizabeth m. 11 Mar. 1674, Nathan Hayman, and Rebecca m. 28 Mar. 1678, John Goodrich of Wethersfield. See Budington, 249. By Sewall he is call. br. of Rev. Thomas, if such be the mean. of the interleav. Almanac, giv. in Geneal. Reg. VII. 206. John, Springfield 1639, then tax. there, rem. soon, perhaps to Rehoboth 1643, and to Newport 1651, thence to Swanzey 1669. Certain. one John at Newport m. 10, or 14 Oct. 1650, Elizabeth Bacon, perhaps sis. of Nathaniel of Barnstable, there had Elizabeth b. July 1651; Mary, 4 Feb. 1653; John, Nov. 1654; Mercy, Dec. 1656; Priscilla, Dec. 1659; and Samuel, Apr. 1661.

Reg. IX. 357, a mark is transpos. as much I suspect, or the ch. rec. is careless, as very frequent. we kn. it is. But the true name is Alling (not Allen), in the first generat. as in later ones. See Alling. JOHN, Northampton, s. of Samuel, m. 8 Dec. 1669, Mary, d. of William Hannum, rem. to Deerfield, there was k. by the Ind. 18 Sept. 1675, the day of Bloody brook, leav. three ch.

SAMUEL, Manchester, had, prob. s. of the same name, for in the [[36]] petition from that town, as the head of a Comtee. in Geneal. Reg. X. 322, appears Samuel with suffix of senr. SAMUEL, Barnstable. See Allyn. SAMUEL, Sudbury, m. Elizabeth d. of John Grout, had five ch. provid. for in the will of their gr.f. as f. had d. and his wid. m. lieut. John Livermore, by that will call. s. in law.

Sussex, presum. by me to have been wid. of blessed John Harvard, his predecess. as collea. with Rev. Zechariah Symmes. In his Ecclesiast. Ann. I. 379, Mr. Felt makes her accomp. Allen, as his w. but this seems highly improb. as the w. would naturally have unit. with our ch. soon after her h. if not at the same time, whereas no fem. mem. of the name of Allen was rec. into the Boston ch. for a long, time after he had been sett. at C. exc. a maiden Elizabeth 24 Mar. 1639 wh. two yrs. after m. Rev. Samuel Stone of Hartford. Bef. the coming of Allen, we kn. from the Hist. of the first ch. at Charlestown, by Budington, p. 247, where begins the invalu. catalogue, that "John Harvard and Ann Harvard his w." join. that ch. 6 Nov. 1637. From the Hist. of Harv. Coll. it is kn. that Allen was admor. on est. of Harvard, and paid the moneys bequeath. so that it can hardly be doubt. that the judgment of Felt was at fault, especially as, a few pages earlier, the diligent author had noted, that Harvard's wid. was "supposed to have m. Rev. Thomas Allen." His ch. were Mary, b. 31 Jan. bapt. prob. 23 Feb. 1640; Sarah, 8 Aug. 1641, d. in Apr. foll.; Elizabeth 17 Sept. 1643, d. in few days; and Mercy, 13 Aug. 1646, d. in few days. The rec. of bapt. for many yrs. after 1640, is lost. In 1651 he went home, and serv. at the same altar of St. Edmunds, in his native city, where he had officiat. bef. com. hither; when worried out of his diocese, 1636, by Bp. Wren; and again he suffer. in the gen. ejectm. of 1662; yet was with much affection sustain. by the worshipp. at a dissent. chapel, as long as such was tolerat. For a sec. w. he had Joanna, wid. of maj.-gen. Robert Sedgwick, wh. had been drawn to Eng. by partiality of Oliver Cromwell for men from this quarter. She had been of his flock at Charlestown, and prob. bore [[37]] him no ch. and we hear of no s. but Thomas, wh. was of Lincoln's Inn some time, but resid. at Norwich 1692. The f. d. 21 Sept. 1673.

WILLIAM, Newbury, nam. by Coffin as of Salem 1638, but no support can be found for any other, so early, than him who had then occup. there for twelve yrs. and prob. he is more correct in placing him at Salisbury from 1639 to 50 ; m.

WILLIAM, Sandwich, s. prob. of George the first, m. 21 Mar. 1650, Priscilla Browne. WILLIAM, Boston, made his will, 15 Dec. 1674, and d. soon. In it he gives all his prop. in hands of Jonathan Tyng, or elsewhere, to Lydia, w. of John Benjamin of Watertown, from wh. Bond seems to be justly authoriz. to infer, that Lydia was his d. but it may be doubted, for on 26 of next mo. John Benjamin renounc. the benefit of the will. She may have been his sis. for the will does not call her d. nor can I find any ch. on Boston rec. of b. but sis. or d. prob. the value of his goods was very small.

As agent for the Co. he went to Eng. three or four times, but gave not satisfact. in the latter visit; and on his private business was oblig. to go, more than once, of all wh. large statem. is seen in the Hist. of Bradford. In 1643, the Dutch, with wh. he had passed some yrs. having lost the confid. of his early friends bef. 1631, would employ him, with Underhill, to raise from the Eng. a force for their protect. against the Ind. but soon after he was sett. at New Haven, and there d. 1659, insolv.

His actual serv. however, had been at Wrentham, Co. Suff. a. 30 miles N. E. from Ipswich. When I exam. the Reg. of the Univ. of Oxford, it did not occur to me, that the age giv. him at matric. must have been too small by 10 yrs. and it is very clear that the Oxford schol. was not our John, but of a differ. fam. and fate also.

Increase Mather includes, in his Relat. of Ind. Wars, the Account of the troubles preced. and during that with the Pequots, writ. by Allyn, filling 19 of his pages. JOHN, New London, only s. of Robert, m. 24 Dec. 1668, Elizabeth d. of John Gag,er, had Elizabeth b. 24 Dec. 1669; and Robert, a. mid. of Sept. 1671. He had helped in the settlem. of Norwich, but after d. of his f. went to N. L. there d. 1709. JOHN, Barnstable, s. of Thomas, m.

MATTHEW, Cambridge 1632, was perhaps s. of Samuel of Chelmsford, Co. Essex, freem. 4 Mar. 1635, rep. at March Gen. Ct. 1636, rem. prob. next yr. to Hartford, thence in few yrs. to Windsor, for wh. he was rep. 1648 to 57, Assist. 1658 to 67, and chos. Commissr. for Unit. Col. 1660 and 4, d. 1 Feb. 1671. His ch. were all prob. b. in Eng. John, Thomas, and Mary, wh. m. 11 June 1646, Benjamin Newberry, and his will of 30 Jan. 1671 names these and the gr.ch. Mary, d. of Newberry. His s. Samuel d. 1648. Common. in his autogr. the name has y, but high authority assures me, that it is not always so; and in the rec. and print. books, it is nearly as often seen with e as without. MATTHEW, Windsor, s. of Thomas and gr.s. of the preced. m. 5 Jan. 1686, Elizabeth eldest d. of the third Henry Wolcott, had Matthew, b. 9 Aug. 1687; Pelatiah, 3 May 1689; Josiah, 9 Mar. 1693; Thomas; Henry, 16 Dec. 1699, and Theophilus, 26 Aug. 1702.OBADIAH, Middletown, propound. for freem. Oct. 1672,,adm. next yr. m. 28 Oct. 1669, Elizabeth d. of Thomas Sanford of Milford, had Obadiah, b. 20 Sept. 1670; Thomas, 20 Sept. 1672, d. in few wks.

Prob. he was neph. of the first Thomas, and the descend. have generally chang. the spell. to Allen. ROBERT, Salem, 1637, adm. of the ch. 15 May 1642, had John, and [[44]] Sarah there bapt. Sunday foll. and Mary, 19 Nov. 1648; in 1658 rem. to New London, and to the then adjoin. town of Norwich at its first settlem. 1659; but, high as is her authority on such a point, I hesitate to adopt Miss Caulkins's opin. that, intermed. betw. Salem and New London, he was of Saybrook. Tho. honor. with the office of constable at Norwich 1669, he went back to N. L. and there d. 1683, were part of his farm preserves in the harbor the name of Allyn's point. Other ch. beside those at Salem he had, as Hannah and Deborah, both prob. at N. L. Sarah m. 17 Feb. 1659, George Geer; Hannah m. Thomas Rose; and Deborah was unm. at d. of f. *SAMUEL, Barnstable, s. of Thomas of the same, m. 10 May 1661, Hannah, d. of Rev.

His w. d. 23 Oct. 1711, and he d. 25 Nov. 1726. THOMAS, Wethersfield 1636, not migrat. from Watertown, for Bond has not nam. him, was br. of Matthew, with wh. he had extraord. controvers. in the law, as is fairly infer. from Trumbull's Col. Rec. I. 211, was made freem. 1652, rep. 1656; and soon after d. as might be conclud. from not seeing his name as rep. in any yr. subseq. nor in the list of freem. for that town 1669; yet he may have rem. to Middletown, as no list of that sort is found from that place in Trumbull, and one of the name there was deac. wh. d. 16 Oct. 1688, having had no ch. but leav. wid. Martha, perhaps, wh. had been wid. of Roger Jepson, and d. 1690. She calls, in her will, Obadiah A. of M. cousin. Y. not e is seen in his last syl. tho. in his bapt. rec. Apr. 1604 (if he were s. of Samuel of Chelmsford Co. Essex), the spell. is the other way. THOMAS, Barnstable, had Samuel, b. 10, bapt. 18 Feb. 1644; John, bapt. 27 Sept. 1646; and Mehitable, bapt. 26 Nov. 1648; and he d. Nov. 1680, at gr. age. Mehitable m. 1 June 1667, Samuel Annable of the same. His first w. was nam. Winifred; the sec. was a wid. but surnames are not found.

He was made freem. 1659, and esteem. in the milit. serv. in wh. he rose to be capt. and d. 14 Feb. 1696. THOMAS, Windsor, s. of the preced. m. 6 Jan. 1686, Martha, sec. d. of Simon Wolcott, wh. had Martha, b. 1 Sept. liv. only two days, and the mo. liv. only four days more, for she d. 7 Sept. of next yr. and in any other particul. nothing is kn. WILLIAM, Stonington, had John, George, Jane, and Elizabeth to wh. on his d. 7 Sept. 1671, he left his prop. speak. of his w. as if she liv. near Barnstaple in Devonsh. For the deficiencies of this article, and the difficulty of determin. betw. Allyn, and Allen, and [[45]] Allyne, or Alleyne, I must confess, that, after long research, satisfact. is unattain. in sev. cases, so many individ. have, perhaps capricious. at various times, writ. their fam. names in differ. ways. ALMY or ALMOND, CHRISTOPHER, Portsmouth, R. I. s. of William, b. in Eng. was an Assist. 1690. JOB, Portsmouth, R. I. br. of the preced. by w. Mary, d. of Christopher Unthank of Warwick, had William and Christopher, tw. Susanna, Audrey, Deborah, Catharine, and Mary, an perhaps minors, when he d. 1684. JOHN, Plymouth 1643, perhaps br. of the preced. m. Mary, d. of James Cole, rem. to Portsmouth, R. 1. was a capt. in Philip's war, 1675, as named in Church's Mem. 53, and d. 1676. WILLIAM, Lynn, perhaps as early as 1631, went home, and came again, 1635, in the Abigail, aged 31, with w. Audrey, 32, and ch. Annis, 8; and Christopher, 3; rem. 1637, prob. to Sandwich, and certainly was freem. of Portsmouth, R. I. 1655. His will names ch.

He was a sea capt. GEORGE, Milford 1667, d. a. 1680; but was not constant resid. there, and notice of w. or ch. is not found, so that prob. he never m.

JOSEPH, New Haven, had come, at the age of 14, to Boston in the Elizabeth and Ann, 1635, from London, went to New Haven early, took o. of fidel. in 1644, bef. 1647 m. Elizabeth the eldest d. of William Prestol, had Joseph; Elizabeth b. 22 June 1650; Sarah, 8 Sept. 1652, but by ch. rec. worthy of very little reward, 15 Sept. 1651; Mary, 3 Oct. 1654; Abigail, 4 Sept. not as ch. rec. says 4 Nov. 1656; all bapt. 26 Apr. 1657; Hannah, b. 2 Dec. 1659; John, 3 Jan. 1662; Lydia, 26 July 1665; Daniel, 13 Aug. 1667; and Jemima, 10 Feb. 1670.

Hannah was a busy money making maiden, wh was Adm'x of est. of her br. Daniel, and yrs. after bot. up the shares of her sis. in the est. of her f. manag. by her with much discret. Haz. II. 247. She d. unm. JOSEPH, New Haven, eldest s. of the preced. m. 25 Nov. 1672, Abigail, d. of John Thompson the first of the same, and d. 12 Jan. 1691. His will, of 1687, pro. 16 Feb. 1691, gave to his w. (wh. prob. had no ch.) and his brs. John and Daniel, all his est. a. 1490. His wid. m. 1694, John Miles. KEY, Boston 1668, merch. had w. Mary, who soon after his d. m. Capt. William Turner, whose victory at the Falls fight, 1676, gave [[46]] his name to the spot. RICHARD, Newtown, L. I. 1686, by w. Hannah had Thomas, b. 7 Sept. 1687; Richard; John; Hannah; Deborah; Amy; and Elizabeth d. Oct. 1718, aged 58; but his wid. wh. d. 23 Aug. 1757, was 90. He is suppos. to have been brot. in youth by his uncle Thomas Wardell of Newtown, wh. had no ch. and have A. large est. See Riker's Ann. of Newtown, 335. THOMAS, Stratford, wh. came in the Elizabeth and Ann from London, 1635, aged 20, I think must have been br. of Joseph of New Haven, as they came together, and the younger, in 1651, inform. the Court, that his br. without nam. him, had d. at S. leav. some prop. and no more is kn. It may be, that the f. of these youths was that John, rated for a subsidy in 1598, to the same parish and at the same time with William Shakespear, nor would it be very extrav. to presume, that he, too, went up to London from Stratford on Avon. See my notes on Edward Jackson. TIMOTHY, New Haven 1646, mariner. ALSOB, THOMAS, Salem vill. was a soldier, k. by the Ind. 16 July (unless 16 May be nearer the day of fight, and the other only date of rec.) 1690, with others at Casco. See Felt Ann. II. 509. Yet Willis I. 205, refer. to the same rec. spells the sufferer's name, as seems, at least, equal. likely to be correct, Alsop. But I would gladly see his origin.

Bef. the Mayor and Aldermen of London, 5 Nov. 1651, he preach. the annivers. sermon on the gunpowder plot, at St. Pauls, and was eject. 1662, d. 21 July 1689, in his 66th yr. By his first w. Susanna, he had only Elizabeth wh. m. Robert Smith, a min. in the same ch. wh. d. in Aug. 1705; and that w. was bur. 6 Jan. 1652. For sec. w. he took, 26 Jan. 1653, Elizabeth Wales, had Ruth, and Philip, both d. young; and this w. d. 19 Feb. 1683. These details are gather. from a Hist. of the Congregat. ch. at Wrentham in Old Eng. by John Brown, 1854; and from Hunter in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 169. Prob. [[50]] his br. John, wh. if we judge by order of names in the rec. of Wrentham, was the younger, went home with our scholar. Of this name nine had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. none at Yale, one at Dart. and three at other N. E. coll. as Farmer found. AMEY, or AMEE, JOHN, Woburn 1649, by w. Martha, d. of Edward Johnson, the historian, had Mary, b. 27 Feb. 1650; rem. to Boston 1653, had John, 4 or 12 Mar. 1654; Martha, 10 Nov. 1655; and William, 24 Mar. 1657; beside Martha, again, 23 Feb. 1660. He was a ship carpenter. WILLIAM, Lynn, in 1637, with others, had liberty to rem. to begin settlem. of Sandwich. AMORY, SIMON, Boston, freeman 1672, had w. Mary, and d. early in 1677. WILLIAM, said to have found a miner. hill above Deerfield, 1685. Felt. AMOS, HUGH, Boston, freem. 1666, was of the 2d ch. had John, bapt. there that yr. perhaps rem. to Norwich, where he had Mary, b. Jan. 1671; and Samuel, Jan. 1673. These three ch. with ano. d. Ann div. his est. in 1707. He liv. on the E. side of the riv. now Preston, and his name designates one of the beautif. ponds of that town. AMSBURY. See Armsbee. AMSDEN, ISAAC, Cambridge, m. 8 June 1654, Frances Perriman, whose f. is unkn. had Isaac, b. 1656; and Jacob, 17 Nov. 1657; both bapt. 3 Nov. 1661, the mo. being adm. of the ch. few days bef. and he d. 7 Apr. 1659, if we take Harris's Epit. 169, for conclusive; but we might judge from Pro. rec. where ment. of admin. giv. 25 June 1661, to his wid. that he had d. only 19 days bef. The wid. m. 14 Feb. 1663, Richard Cutter. ISAAC, Cambridge, s. of the preced. m. 17 May 1677, Jane Rutter, perhaps d. of John of Sudbury, had Elizabeth b. 3 Feb. foll. Isaac, 29 Aug. 1680; John 28 Dec. 1685; Thomas, 9 Jan. 1687; Jacob, 29 Feb. 1688; and Abraham 15 Oct. 1692, as suppl. by a scrupul. writer in Geneal. Reg. XV. 21, tho. I feel compel to change an impossib. date. JACOB, Cambridge, s. of Isaac the first, d. 11 June 1701, as we learn from Harris, 29, and any thing, else is learn. from nobody. JOHN, Hatfield, perhaps s. of the first Isaac by a w. bef. Frances, or even bef. he sett. at Cambridge, or came from Eng. there this man liv. ten yrs. but at H. d. 1696, leav. John and Isaac, of wh. the latter d. young, and the former resid. at Deerfield, where he was drown. 1742, and two of his s. were k. by the Ind. 1746. Descend. may be found there. Matchless Mitchell spells the name Embsden. ANCHOR, THOMAS, Boston 1646. ANDERSON, ARCHIBALD, Lynn, employ. at the iron works, came from Scotland, and d. 13 Aug. 1661. DAVID, New Haven 1639, whip. for drunk. and not much better in 1641, as in Col. Rec. I. 28 and 59 appears. DAVID, Charlestown 1675, prob. s. of John of Boston, by w. Catharine Richardson, m. 12 Sept. 1679, had John, wh. d. that yr. at 3 mos. David, bapt. 23 Sept. 1677, perhaps a posthum. ch. for his f. d. in May preced. on his way, as master of the ship Blessing, home from London. His first w. m. 5 June 1667, was Hannah Nichols, wh. d. 18 July 1671. GAWEN, Roxbury, [[51]] freem. 13 May1640, of wh. no more is heard. JOHN, Boston 1647, shipwright, permit. in 1652 to build a wharf, m. 3 Jan. 1655, I suppose for sec. w. Mary Hodges of Charlestown (a former w. Jane hav. d. 4 May preced. and his s. Samuel, prob. inf. d. 10 July foll.), by her had Joanna, b. 25 Dec. foll. and Ann, 5 May 1657; and he d. 28 Sept. 1677. We learn from his will of 3 days preced. pro. 31 Oct. foll. that he had elder ch. as Emma, wh. m. 17 July 1655, John Brackenbury, afterwards m. Joseph Lynde, and d. 2 Sept. 1703; Catharine, wh. m. 19 July 1635, John Phillips, and d. 24 Feb. 1699; Mary, uh. as wid. Lynde, m. 27 July 1682, Rev. Thomas Shepard, and, next, Hon. Samuel Hayman, and was bur. 20 Aug. 1717; and Joanna Newman; but much uncertain. hangs over these two last ds. i. e. what Lynde was h. of the former, what Newman of the latter, tho. much inquiry has been bestow. He had also Henry, who d. in Eng. and left his prop. to the f. JOHN, Ipswich 1665, whose inv. was render. 3 May 1701, had been a soldier in the Province serv. Possib. but not prob. he may have been one of the unhappy prisoners of the battle at Worcester, 3 Sept. 1651 (that "crowning mercy" to Oliver Cromwell), of wh. 272 were ship. in Nov. after, in the John and Sarah, from London, to be sold here, arr. in May foll. at Boston. Beside this John, Alister, David, and William A. were victims of the same cruel policy in the same ship. Part of the prisoners of Dunbar, import. in the former yr. had been well receiv. as Cotton wrote to Cromwell, and sold for 6, 7, or 8 yrs. servitude. Most of these unfortunate young men d. of scurvy, or of broken hearts; and some of the exiles ran away, perhaps with good-will of their purchasers, so that not one in fifty of these soldiers that foll. Charles II. in the fatal fields of Dunbar and Worcester, and were sold in Boston, prob. five hundred in num. liv. to have fams. in our country. JOHN, Salem 1673, a shipmaster, had been, perhaps, of Boston, 1655, and adm. with w. Mary, of the sec. ch. 1672. RICHARD, New Maven, took o. of fidel. 7 Apr. 1657. ROBERT, in Mass. 6 June 1637 fin. for contempt £50, wh. was soon remit. may have been only a transient visitor. See Col. Rec. I. 198,245. WILLIAM, New Haven, took o. of fidel. 7 Apr. 1657, but neither of him. nor of Richard, who may have been his br. is any more seen. WILLIAM, Watertown, of wh. Dr. Bond found only, that he sat on a coroner's jury 26 July 1669. Gr. of this name up to 1828 Farmer found two at Harv. two at Dart. one at Yale, and eleven at the other coll. in N. E. and N. J. chiefly, I presume from the latter. ANDREW, JOHN, Wickford 1674. NICHOLAS, Marblehead 1683, freem.that yr.

See the invalu. "Cambridge Ch. gathering," by Newell with appx. of Mitchell, and Harris's Epit. A person, "well skill. in mathemat." of this name, as is ment. in Haz. I. 591, and Belkn. I. 57, is suppos. to be this Cambridge man. See Col. Rec. III. 329 and 361. SAMUEL, eldest s. of the preced. was min. of Milford, ord. 15 Nov. 1685, m. Abigail, d. of Gov. Robert Treat, wh. d. 5 Dec. 1727, had Samuel, and prob. others, and d. 21 Jan. 1738. A sec. w. Abigail, d. 9 Sept. 1742. The name has a final s. in the Conn. rec. but the Rev. owner reject. the addit.; the ch. and town rec. of Cambridge admit the letter, tho. the indisput. authority of the Coll. catal. deny, and discrimin. yet in his Hecatompolis (ch. 7 of the Magn. I.) Mather sanctifies the intrusion. WILLIAM, Cambridge, mariner, the freem. of 4 Mar. 1634, by w. Mary, wh. d. 19 Jan. 1640, had Samuel and perhaps other ch. and d. bef. 1655. WILLIAM, Ipswich, was sch. master there, and in sev. other towns, may not have been br. of Rev. Samuel, and d. 19 July 1683. But in Geneal. Rev. VIII. 19, the extr. from the interleav. Almanac of Sewall, noticing this event is remark. diverse in the name from the careful writer on the Ipswich gr. sch. in G. R. VI. 69, wh. makes Thomas Andrews succeed famous Cheever in the sch. 1 Aug. 1660, and teach. 23 yrs. and d. 10 July 1683. Vehemently do I suspect, that one or the other is mistaken, that only one man is intend. and the date of d. 10 or 19, easily reconcil. Of this name, without s. in 1834, as Farmer mark. three had been gr. at Harv. three at Yale, and one at some other N. E. coll. ANDREWS, ANDROWS (or ANDROS, sometimes), often ANDROS, ABRAHAM, Fairfield, s. perhaps of Francis, rem. to Waterbury, had eight ch. Rebecca, b. 1672; Mary, 1674; Hannah, 1678; Abraham, 1680; Sarah, bapt. 9 Mar. 1684; Rachel, 1686; John, 1688; and Thomas, 1699. ABRAHAM, Waterbury, s. of John of Farmington, m. Sarah, d. of Robert Porter of Farmington, had Sarah, bapt. 9 Mar. 1681; Abraham, 17, certain. not, as said somewhere, 27 July 1687; at Farmington ch. both; beside Mary, bapt. 19 May 1689; John, Benjamin, and Robert. He d. 3 May 1693, leav. as appears by Pro. rec. these five ch. and a wid. Between that Pro. rec. at Hartford, and the town rec. of F. as well as of W. disagreem. may be found; at least it was hard to guess, with confidence, after large inquiry, which Abraham was s. of Francis, wh. of John; and Hinman, wh. rather darkens the confus. saves hims. from anxiety by acknowledg. only one Abraham, while he informs us, that sometimes the name is giv. Andros, or Andrus. His report of Francis gives him no Abraham, and tho. [[53]] he allows one to John, the report is incomplete. BENJAMIN, Farmington, s. of John, by w. Mary, had Benjamin. b. 1683; John, 1685; both, with their mo. bapt. 10 Jan. 1687, prob. d. young; Mary, 26 Aug. 1688; Stephen, prob. 21 Sept. 1690; beside Daniel, b. 7 Feb. bapt. 10 Sept. 1693; Samuel, 20, bapt. 24 Nov. 1695; Joanna, b. 24 May 1698; James, 1 Aug 1701. *DANIEL, Salem, sch. master, in 1672, was, Dr. Bond thinks, s. of Thomas of Watertown, liv. in the pt. call. the vill. now Danvers, for wh. in the June Sess. 1689, the first yr. of liberty recov. from Andros, he was rep. and in 1692 was charg. with the preposter. crime of witchcraft, perhaps bec. he kn. more than some of his neighb. but was releas. early in the yr. foll. when reason prevail. over the influence of Cotton Mather. He d. 3 Dec. 170, aged 59, and s. Thomas, 24, with Samuel, 19, d. next mo. all of the smallpox.

EDWARD, Newport 1639, perhaps rem. to Saco, at least one of the name was freem. there 1653, acc. Folsom, 123, of the planta. I suppose he means, for he does not appear in the Col. list, d. 1668. EDWARD, Hartford 1655, sw. freem. 1657, had Edward, wh. d. unm. and Solomon; beside ds. Mary, and Sarah, of wh. the last m. Henry Treat of H. and next David Forbes. He d. 1673. EDWARD, Warwick, among freem. there 1655, but no w. or ch. is heard of; may possib. be he who was early of Newport. FRANCIS, Hartford 1639, had John, bapt. 27 Sept. 1646; and Thomas, 2 Jan. 1648; rem. to Fairfield, there d. 1662, or 3, his will being of 6 .June of the former. pro. 5 Mar. of the latter yr. In it he provides for four s. and five ds. viz. in addit. to the two bef. ment. were Jeremiah, and Abraham, ds. Elizabeth Mary; Esther; Rebecca, wh. bec. sec. w. 7 July 1678, of Samuel Benedict of Norwalk; and Ruth; beside Hannah, wh. had m. John Crampton, after of Norwalk. Quite uncert. is it, whether his s. Abraham were the man, wh. d. 1693, or he wh. had ch. 1699. *HENRY, Taunton, an orig. purchas. rep. 1639 and four next yrs. d. 1652, is chiefly kn. from his will of 13 Mar. in that yr. pro. 10 Feb. foll. in wh. are nam. his w.

Thomas, but when it is said, that he was b. 1658, I fear it is only drawing a bow at a venture, for if b. that yr. it might seem as if he should be count. br. not s. of the Capt. since the other count. makes him gr.-gr.s. of the first Thomas of the same. *JOSEPH, Hingham 1635, s. of Thomas the first, b. in Eng. freem. 3 Mar. 1636, was the first town clk. constable, rep. 1636-8, had rem. to Duxbury soon after, but Joseph, Elizabeth bapt.

WILLIAM, Lynn 1634, maybe one of the early freem. of this name, 4 Mar. 1634, or 4 Mar. 1630, or 13 May 1640; of wh. the last William's surname is giv. with o, instead of e in the last syl. but he of 1635 hav. the prefix of respect may seem rather to belong to Charlestown or Cambridge by proximity of other names in that day's list. From Lewis in Hist. of L. no light is deriv. here. WILLIAM, New Haven, a promin. man, sign. the compact 1639, prob. accomp. Gov. Eaton, and no doubt was first at Boston or Charlestown; at N.

Perhaps one of these many Williams was a carpenter, wh. came in the James from Southampton, 1635.

In 1653 he rem. to Newport, was chos. Assist. next yr. and in 1663 made by the royal chart. Presid. and by ann. elect. so cont. for eight yrs. and d. 1678.

In 1700 he went to New London, there was an anchorsmith, m. 6 Dec. 1703, Mercy, wid. of Samuel Fosdick, had Ruhamah, b. 7 Sept. 1704; and Lucretia, 26 Aug. 1706; and d. 26 Aug. 1725, says the gr.stone, "aged a. 73 yrs."

He had been bapt. 18 Apr. 1599. THOMAS, Providence, call. jun. when he took o. of alleg. June 1668, was s. of the preced. by sec. w. and d. 3 Dec. 1726. Confus. in parts of the rec. of this fam. in R. I. is found, but it may be avoid. by caution, as the fam. tradit. makes sec. w. of the first Thomas to be Park, instead of Palkhurst, and where it tells, that a d. m. a Vernon, it may be easy blunder for Farnum. WILLIAM, Hingham 1635, br. of the first Thomas, b. as is said, 1589, had Benedict, Thomas, Stephen, beside one d. Joanna, wh. m. Zechary Rhodes, and ano. Elizabeth wh. m.

Backus notes, that he was anc. of the infamously unhappy Benedict of West Point. Of the ch. of one Arnold of Reading recov. from sickness near to d. we may read the story in Mather's Life of Brock, Magn. IV. 142, that is lamenta. extravag. and seems more ridicul. than extravag.

John, Joseph, Elizabeth Margaret, and Mary; but after his d. she with the ch. went to her f. then liv. at Nantucket, yet it is not my happiness to find any other of this surname on our side of the ocean, exc. the two s. of wh. Joseph went to Phila. and JOHN, of Nantucket, wh. m. 26 Feb. 1704, Mary, youngest d. of Eleazer Folger, had Keturah; Eunice, b. 29 Aug. 1706; Rhoda, 26 Nov. 1708; Persis, 17 Nov. 1710; Thomas, 8 Nov. 1712; Stephen, 2 Feb. 1715; and Priscilla, 2 Nov. 1718.

Caulkins, 351, considers him the same, had Anthony, and two ds. Mary, and Hannah, old eno. to [[68]] join the ch. Feb. 1694. There, too, descend. were seen. BENJAMIN, Salem 1674, s. perhaps of Anthony the first, by w. Hannah had John, bapt. June 1693; Jonathan, 23 Sept. 1694; and prob. others. He was a shipbuild. EDWARD, Beverly, freem. 1683, perhaps s. of the first Anthony. Felt. THOMAS, New Haven, whose goods were order. to be apprais. 3 Apr. 1640, as he was lately drown. in co. with Thomas Johnson. Sometimes, perhaps, the first Anthony may be print. Ashley. ASHCRAFT, JOHN, Stonington 1662, m. 12 Sept. 1670, Hannah Osborne, had John, b. 1671; Hannah, 1675; Ephraim, 1677; and Mary, 1680. Prob. descend. are there; and one Thomas A. mariner from Boston, d. Sept. 1724, at Bay of Honduras, leav. will made here 13 Jan. 1723. ASHDOWN, JOHN, Weymouth, a soldier in Philip's war, at the Falls fight. No descend. were kn. 1736, when ld. was gr. to rep. of all in that stout band. ASHFIELD, WILLIAM, Malden by w.

One of the lines to seventh generat. is shown by Davis in Geneal. Reg. II. 394. EDMUND, Boston 1670, had liv. at Ipswich. EDWARD, Maine 1630, was prob. from Bristol, Eng. and may be he, who had a lot, a. 1650, at Gloucester, but it is not prob. EDWARD, Boston, freem. 1677, by w.

His wid. m. 2 Mar. foll. Joseph Williston.

Lancaster, Eng. was, I suppose, of Providence 1676, one of the men entitled, for staying out the war, to rec. an Ind. for a slave. JAMES, Providence 1639, freem. 1655, sw. alleg. to Charles II.

Southgate, p. 82 makes him have for first w. a. d. of Andrew Alger, but after rem. says, he m. Mary, d. of Nicholas Edgcomb, wid. of George Page. Yet the same w. is ascrib. to John Austin, and all that we can be sure of, is that nothing is sure a. the matter. THOMAS, Providence 1639, perhaps br. of James. Both are call. proprs. and that no more can be told of either, is rather remarka. ASHWOOD, JAMES, Boston. See Astwood.

Leavens, prob. from Roxbury, had one d. only kn. without name. SAMUEL, Brookline, eldest s. of Peter the first, m. Sarah Stevens of Roxbury, had Thomas ; Samuel, H. C. 1714; Mehitable; Elizabeth and Sarah; was a lieut. at the capt. of Port Royal 1690, and capt. at the time of his d. wh. occurr. by drown. in Charles riv. 6 Sept. 1727. His s. Thomas was f. of William, H. C. 1764, a disting. physician of the early part of this cent. and f. of Col. Thomas, H. C. 1804, late consul of the U. S. at London, so well kn. for his studies in our early hist. wh. still enjoys a valu. part of the orig. homestead of Peter the first. WILLIAM, Charlestown 1630, prob. came in the fleet with Winthrop, serv. on the first jury of inquest in the Col. 28 Sept. of that yr. was one of the first mem. of the ch. being No. 10, and chos. one of the two deac. [[71]] at organiz. of ch. soon rem. to Boston, freem. 3 Apr. 1632, rep. chos. in place of Henry Vane, wh. went home Aug,. 1637; but as a supporter of Wheelwright, and follow. of the teach. of Mrs. Hutchinson, was dismiss. disarm. disfranch. and banish. First he went to R. I. with so many other of his fellow saints, and was Secr. of that Col. but short time he liv. at New Haven 1641 and 2, yet came again, by favor of Court, to Boston, was clk. of the writs, or recorder, and ar. co. 1643; certain. a propr. at Watertown, tho. never resid. there, went home, and in 1653 publish. a queer book as prognostic of the millennium to open in 20 yrs. No mortificat. was felt prob. by him for non-arriv. of this fifth monarchy, as I suppose he did not even live to see the success of the rival dynasty. Cromwell alone was powerful eno. to retard such event, and the whole body of the people of Eng. with unanim. that was never bef. or since equal. in that kingd. by calls for the restor. of the ho. of Stuart postpon. the success of such enthusiasm. Of his fam. my report will be less exact than should be expect. yet that is not for failure of diligent inquiry. By w. Elizabeth (somehow sis. of Christopher Stanley, more prob. of his w. Susanna, wh. bec. w. of Lieut. William Phillips) he had Edward, b. 26 Sept. 1630, d. soon; Hannah, 25 Dec. 1631; and of neither is the rec. of bapt. preserv. Elizabeth of whose b. the town rec. is defic. was bapt. 22 Sept. 1633; Samuel, equal. unkn. by town rec. was bapt. 20th Sept. 1635; Ethannah, b. 1, bapt. 12 Mar. 1637; and Dorcas, b. in his banishm. 14 Feb. 1640, and perhaps Mary. Hannah m. 1651, John Angier. ASTWOOD, JAMES, Roxbury, came (with w. Sarah and a ch. wh. soon d.) in May 1638, had James, b. 29 Nov. 1638; John, 20 Sept. 1610, d. at 6 mos. John, again, whose b. is wrong on rec. of town, as he was bapt. 6 Mar. 1642; Joseph, 19 Nov. 1643, d. soon; Joseph, again, 10 Nov. 1644; both these dates being giv. as rec. of b. that may well be doubt. as both were the days of bapt. Sarah, bapt. 14 June 1646; and Mary, 26 Dec. 1647; of whose dates of b. it may be slightly lament. that we are ign. He was freem. 22 May 1639, rem. to Boston to bec. one of the found. of the sec. ch. where the name is Ulit. prob. as sound. Ashwood. The d. Mary, d. 21 Jan. 1652; and he d. the yr. after. His will of Sept. 1653, pro. 13 Oct. foll. is abbrev. in Geneal. Reg. VII. 337; and his wid. refus. execut. of that instrum. by wh. the est. was div. into seven parts, excus. hers. as going to Eng. In Vol. VIII. 62 of the same periodic. where the name appears Astod, as if the alphabet were short, as p. 275 proves were the assets, not above 1/6 in the £, we see adequate apology. JOHN, Roxbury, came by the Hopewell, Capt. Bundocke, in the spring, of 1635, aged 26, a husbandman from Stanstead Abbey, Co. Herts, at R. had a w. Martha, wh. may have come in the same ship, was freem. 3 Mar. 1636, rem. to Milford 1639, there m. next yr. Sarah, wid. [[72]] of Sylvester Baldwin, was chos. rep. 1643 and 4, afterwards an Assist. of the Col. and a Commissioner. of the Unit. Cols. in 1653, went home, as agent, the next yr. and d. at London soon. His wid. d. Nov. 1669. ATCHINSON, or ATCHISON, JOHN, Hatfield 1672, k. by the Ind. 19 Sept. 1677, leav. Elizabeth Mary, John, and Benoni, of wh. the last d. 1704 at Springfield, and John d. 1738 at Brimfield. ATHEARN, SIMON, Martha's Vineyard, had come from New Hampsh. it is said, and m. Mary Butler, was rep. 1692, first under the new chart. by wh. that isl. was tak. from New York, and giv. to Mass. d. 26 Feb. 1711, aged 71. His ch. Solomon, Jethro, and Zerviah were bapt. at Barnstable, 14 July 1700, in right of his w. Descend. are num. at the Vineyard. ATHERSTON, JOHN, Boston, came from London, 1634, in the Susan and Ellen, aged 24; but we see not any acco. of his resid. ret. or d. ATHERTON, CONSIDER, Dorchester, s. of Humphrey of the same, m. 19 Dec. 1661 Ann Annable, as Mr. Clapp, the histor. of D. assures me, and I wish he could say, whose d. she was, had Humphrey, whose pious duty in repair. the sepulchre of his gr.f. the town reward. by gr. of 9 acres of meadow. HOPE, Hatfield, s. of Humphrey, after leav. coll. taught for some time the gr. sch. at Dorchester, began in 1669 to preach, was ord. 1671, freem. 1672, m. 1674, Sarah, d. of John Hollister of Wethersfield, had Hope, and Joseph, tw. b. 7 Jan. 1675, of wh. Hope prob. d. soon; and Sarah, 26 Oct. 1676. He serv. as chaplain, in Philip's war, to those forces employ. in the neighb. and at the battle of the Falls in Montague was present, 18 May 1676, under Capt. Turner, whose name has been since giv. to the cataract. During, the retreat he was thrown from his horse, and lost in the woods; and tradit. tells (Hoyt's Antiq. Research. 133, 4), that the Ind. to wh. he in his destitut. offer. to surrender; so reverenc. or fear. his madness or sanctity, as to refuse to rec. him. He reach. home uninjur. exc. in the mind, hav. strange hallucinat. prob. from exhaust. or sleeplessn. or hunger, and d. 8 June 1677. The wid. m. Timothy Baker. * HUMPHREY, Dorchester 1636, came, perhaps, from Preston in Lancash. where the name contin. so late as 1780; was freem. 2 May 1638, ar. co. the same yr. and its capt. 1650, often selectman, and rep. nine yrs. fr. 1638, but not in success. yrs. and an Assist. chos. ann. 1654 to his d. and in 1656, succeed. Sedgwick, as Major-Gen. He d. 16 Sept. 1661, says the inscript. print. in Alden's Epit. and as that was Monday, and prob. refers to the cause of his d. thrown from his horse, on return from milit. rev. on Boston common by rid. over a cow, I prefer to say 17 Sept. (a. one o'clock. A. M. acc. the MS. of John Hull's Diary). Capt. Johnson, in Wonderwork. Provid. of Zion's Saviour; gives him good character; and Hubbard excites our fears, that everybody did not value [[73]] him so highly, when he remarks, that by some "the manner of his d. was noted as a judgmt." Of what sin this judgmt. was thus noted, we may hardly venture to guess, tho. when mortals direct the bolts of eternal justice, their aim is commonly unanimous. Strange, it seems to me, is the indefiniteness of our knowl. of so promin. a man; for even the name of his w. is not seen. Yet ten or eleven ch. are kn. at least by name, and one or more there may have been of unkn. names; one or more b. in Eng. one or more of unkn. sex, if we are compel. to guess by their names; and one or more d. bef. the f. Of s. the oldest was Jonathan; of ds. Catharine (sometimes call. Elizabeth), but wh. of the two, both b. in Eng. was elder, is uncert. Other ch. were Rest, bapt. 26 May 1639; Increase, 2 Jan. 1642; Thankful, 28 Apr. 1644; Hope, 30 Aug. 1646, H. C. 1665, bef. ment.; Mary, wh. must not be the same as Margaret, whose dates of b. or bapt. are equally undiscov.; Watching, bapt. 24 Aug. 1651; Patience, 2 Apr. 1654; and Consider. Great persev. was need. to learn, that Catharine m. 1650, Timothy Mather; Margaret m. 30 Dec. 1659, James Trowbridge, and d. 17 June 1672; Rest m. 15 Mar. 1661, Obadiah Swift; Thankful m. 2 Apr. 1665, Thomas Bird jr.; Mary m. 9 Apr. 1667, Joseph Weeks; and Patience m. Isaac Humphrey. JAMES, Dorchester; perhaps br. of the preced. rem. to Lancaster, where he had James, b. 13 May 1654; and Joshua, 13 May 1656; and soon after ret. to D. and liv. 1678 at Milton, but at last rem. to Sherburn, and d. 1707, aged 86, unless deduct. be made for a common dispos. to exagger. If conject. be indulg. that he was s. of Humphrey (wh. seems to me improb.) very large subtract. will be need. JONATHAN, Dorchester, eldest s. of Humphrey, a mariner, had admin. of est. of the f. and trouble eno. with the interest by his f. with Gookin, Hudson, and others taken in the Narraganset lds. and there he had to plant, I believe, a s. Increase, unless this were his br. But wh. was his w. or what fam. he had, is unlin. JOSHUA, Lancaster, s. of James, m. Mary Gulliver of Milton, had sev. ch. of wh. I kn. only, that the sixth and youngest s. Peter was f. of Joshua, H. C. 1762, wh. was f. of Hon. Charles H. of Amherst, N. H. gr. at H. C. 1794. WATCHING, Dorchester, s. of Humphrey, m. 23 Jan. 1678, Elizabeth d. of Samuel Rigby, had two ch. whose names are not told; rem. to Bristol, there in Feb. 1689 count. four ch. WILLIAM, Boston, came from Barbados, in the ship Nathaniel, emb. 4 Oct. 1671. Of this name, in 1834, five had been gr. at Harv. and two at Dart. ATKINS, ABRAHAM, may have been of Boston, or some neighb. town, as he is of ar. co. 1642. HENRY, Yarmouth 1641, rem. to Plymouth, by w. Elizabeth m. 9 July 1647, had Mary, b. 13 Mar. 1649, wh. d. at 2 yrs. Samuel, 24 Feb. 1652, wh. d. young; Isaac, 15 June 1654, d. young; rem. to Eastham, there had Isaac, again, 14 June 1657; and his w. d. 14 Mar. 1662. He m. 25 Mar. 1664, Bethia Linnell, had Desire, 7 May [[74]] 1665; John, 15 Dec. 1666, d. young; Nathaniel, 25 Dec. 1667; Joseph, 4 Mar. 1669; Thomas, 19 June 1671; John, again, 6 Aug. 1674; Mercy, 24 Nov. 1676; and Samuel, again, 25 June 1679. JAMES, Roxbury, had been of Braintree, was a soldier in the Narranset bloody campaign, of Dec. 1675, by w. Margaret had James, b. Feb. 1683, d. at 1 yr.; James, again, 31 Mar. 1684; and no more is heard of him. JOSEPH, Eastham, s. of Henry, by w.

MATTHEW, Boston, freem. 1673, in Col. Rec. call. of sec. ch. at the date of Oct. tho. the ch. list gives him not until Dec. NATHANIEL, Eastham, s. of Henry, had Nathaniel, b. 21 Nov. 1694; Henry, 2 Aug. 1696; Bethia, 4 May 1698; Joshua, Apr. 1702; Isaiah, 24 Feb. 1704; and Elizabeth 4 Jan. 1709. THOMAS, Boston, carpenter, by w. Mary had Elizabeth b. 30 Dec. 1672; Thomas, 26 Feb. 1674; and m. for sec. 11 Aug. 1687, wid. Abigail Jones had Abigail, 3 June 1688; and Richard, 12 Oct. 1689. In 1676 he was made capt. of the first fire engine introd. into the town. THOMAS, Hartford. See Adkins. TOBIAS, Boston, by w. Ann had Ann, b. 2 July 1684; and Eliphal, 4 Dec. 1688. By m. of a d. Catharine, of Gov. Joseph Dudley with Joseph Atkins, the name of Dudley A. has long been perpet. as at Harv. Coll. 1748, 1784, and 1816, the sec. in the list, wh. took in addit. the name of Tyn, from an earlier ancest. was a disting. gentleman at Newburyport and Boston. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. II. 280. ATKINSON, ADKINSON, or ATKESON, JOHN, Newbury, s. of the first Theodore, was a hatter, m. 27 Apr. 1664, Sarah Mirick, had Sarah, b. 27 Nov. 1665; John; Thomas, 27 Dec. 1669, wh. may be well rec. as H. C. 1691, whose d. is not mark. in the catal. but Coffin foll. Mather, makes it bef. 1699; Theodore, 23 Jan. 1672, drown. at 13 yrs.; Abigail, 8 Nov. 1673; Samuel, 16 Jan. 1676; Nathaniel, 29 Nov. 1677; Elizabeth 20 June 1680; and Joseph, 1 May 1682. JOSEPH, Exeter,in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 77, said to have been adm. freem. 14 July 1657, at that place; upon wh. arises the quest. by what authority was he adm. and no more can, I think, be told. LUKE, New Haven, of the earliest sett. sign. the compact 1639, bef. 1643 is count. with fam. of four, m. 1 May 1651, prob. as sec. w. Mary, d. of Richard Platt of Milford, had Mary, b. 1652; Hannah, 1653; and Sarah, 1655; rem. next yr. whither is unkn. perhaps to Middletown, for there his wid. m. 3 Jan. 1667, Thomas Whitmore, or Wetmore, and bore him two ch. nam. in his will by their gr.f. Platt in 1683. MARMADUKE, Scituate, m. 1670, Mary, d. of Edward Jenkins, and in 1674 she obt. divorce for his desert.

Abigail had John, bef. ment. whose day of b. or bapt. is not found (but we may doubt, that Geneal. Reg. VII. 349 mak. him 44 yrs. old in 1678 is too liberal by seven or eight yrs.); Theodore, b. 19, bapt. 28 Apr. 1644; Nathaniel, 28, bapt. 30 Nov. 1645, H. C. 1667, d. by Mather's Catal.; Abigail, 24 Aug,. 1647, d. young,; Thomas, 1654; Abigail, again, 9 Dec. 1657; and by sec. w. m. Oct. 1667, Mary, d. of Rev. John Wheelwright, wid. of Edward Lyde, had John, again, 13 June 1672; and d. Aug. 1701, aged 89. Abigail, m. Abraham Spencer. THEODORE, Boston, s. of the preced. m. Elizabeth d. of Edward Mitchelson, had Elizabeth b. 25 June 1668; Theodore, 3 Oct. 1669; Edward, 8 Sept. 1671; and Abigail 13 Dec. 16G72. He was k. by the Ind. in the gr. fight of 19 Dec. 1675, serv. as serj. in Davenport's comp. at Narranganset; and his wid. m. 15 Nov. foll. Henry Deering.

THOMAS, Concord, freem. 7 Dec. 1636, by w. Susanna had Susanna, b. 28 Apr. 1641; and Hannah, 5 Mar. 1644; and he d. Nov. 1646. Both of the ds. m. Caleb Brooks, the elder on 10 Apr. 1660, and d. 19 Jan. 1669. But he had an elder d. Rebecca, that m. John Hayward; and the wid. of Atkinson m. William Allen. THOMAS, Plymouth 1638. Eight of this name had been gr. in 1838, at Harv. and two at Dart. ATWATER, DAVID, New Haven 1638, came from London, sign. the planta. coven. 4 June 1639, had Mercy, b. 29 Feb. bapt. 5 Mar. 1648; Damaris, b. 2 Nov. but the ch. rec. has bapt. 21 Oct. 1649, and usually the town rec. is far more to be relied on than that of the ch. at New Haven, tho. the contrary is true in most towns, yet here the day assign. for bapt. in Geneal. Reg. IX. 357 may be true, tho. in a wonderful proportion, almost one half of the instances, it can be prov. to be wrong; David, 13 July, bapt. I judge, 3 Aug. tho. Mr. White gives it 13 Aug. 1651, wh. we kn. is mistake; Joshua, 11 Jan. bapt. prob. 6 Feb. 1653, ch. rec. as Mr. White gives it, being 11, wh. was Friday, when John Davenport would rather have anathematiz. than bapt. any ch.; John, 1 Nov. 1654, bapt. I presume, 5 of the same, tho. ch. rec. has 1, wh. was Wednesday; Jonathan, b. 12 July 1656; Abigail, 3 Mar. 1660, bapt. 1 Apr. foll.; Mary, 31 Mar. 1662, bapt. 20 Apr. foll. as I judge, tho. the ch. rec. as Mr. White prints it, be 22; Samuel, b. 17 Sept. 1664; and Ebenezer, 13 Jan. 1667; all of wh. are nam. as liv. May 1676,by the will of his br. Joshua. He d. 1692, and in his will the yr. bef. names all the s. exc. Joshua, wh. had liv. at Wallingford, m. 24 June 1680, Lydia d. of John Rockwell of Windsor, and both h. and w. without ch. d. 1681. Of the ds. I kn. the m. of four, Mercy to John Austin, and Damaris to John Punderson, both on 5 Nov. 1667; Abigail to Nathaniel Jones, [[76]] 7 Oct. 1684; and Mary to Ichabod Stow of Middletown, 22 Oct. 1688. DAVID, New Haven, eldest s. of the preced. had Joanna, b. 24 Feb. 1683; Abigail, 18 Jan. 1685; and Joshua, 6 Dec. 1686.

Adam Blackman of Stratford, had Ann; Samuel, b. 20 June 1654, prob. d. young; Joshua, 10 Apr. bapt. 21 Nov. 1658; and Mary, 1659; was rep. 1652, rem. 1655 to Milford, there had the last named two ch. was Assist. and Treasr. of the Col. but rem. in 1659 to Boston, there had Mary, b. 15 Jan. 1660; John, 14 Aug. 1662, bef. ment.; Abigail, 23 Jan. 1664; Jane, with an alias Grace, on our rec. 9 Sept. 1666; Elinor, 23 Apr. 1669; and Benjamin, 16 May 1673; was a busy trader, d. 16, bur. 18 May 1676, leav. wid. wh. in few mos. m.

John Clark, wh. d. in Barbary of smallpox, and she next m. 8 Nov. 1694 John Coney, outliv. him, and d. 12 Apr. 1726. Both these ds. and Rebecca, a gr.d. but no s. are nam. in the will of Higginson's wid. JOSHUA, Boston, s. of the preced. by w. Rebecca had Rebecca, b. 25 Feb. 1687; and by w. Mary, as the rec. (perhaps untrustworthy in this name) says, had Samuel, b. 3 Mar. 1688. Easy eno. may be the conject. as to error, that the writer in the clerk's office took Mary as w. of Joshua, bec. he saw such connex. of parents with ch. few yr.s. bef. but equal. easy is the other suppos. that Rebecca was not the true name of the w. but carelessly giv. bec. the ch. had that name. To this latter suggest. is perhaps to be add. that it is somewhere writ. that Josnua m. Mary, wid. of Samuel Smith, and d. of Samuel Maverick. After long research, I am not enlight. eno. to speak with decis. SAMUEL, New Haven, br. of Jonathan of the same, m. 1691, Sarah, d. of the first John Alling, had ten ch. In the New Haven fam. the name is perpet. and gr. at Yale in 1834 were count. fifteen, two at other N. E. coll. none at Harv. ATWELL, BENJAMIN, New London, by w.

Sept. 1640, when his mo. was a wid. but bec. w. of Richard Martin, was after of Falmouth, there k. by the Ind. 11 Aug. 1676, leav. Joseph only 5 yrs. old. Willis, I. 37, 134, 140 and 3. One Joan A. wh. testif. 1688, that she was 60 yrs. old, had been, I think, wid. of John Andrews, and was then wid. of Benjamin Atwell. JOHN, Lynn 1650.

Ann, but no issue, unless that Mary Wood, very often used for Atwood, wh. m. 11 Dec. 1661, John Holmes, wh. bec. min. of Duxbury, were his d. wh. is very unlikely, for in his will of 20 Oct. 1643, as Winsor, 180, tells, he names no ch. but gives most of his prop. to w. wh. d. 1 June 1654, and in her will, of 27 Apr. 1650, she divides her est. betw. br. and sis.

Sarah had John, b. 23 May 1671, d. young; James, 3 June 1673; Samuel, 18 May 1687; and Sarah, 11 Nov. 1688; and by sec. w.

Hinman. JOSEPH, Taunton, m. 1 Jan. 1680, Esther, d. of James Walker, had Joseph, b. 4 Aug. 1681; John, 28 Feb. 1683; Ephraim; and perhaps Joanna. His w. d. 8 Apr. 1696, aged 46, and he [[78]] d. 12 Feb. foll. aged 47. JOSIAH, Wethersfield, br. of Jonathan, m. 16 Feb. 1710, Bathshebia, d. of Bazaleel Lattimore, had Abigail, b. 6 Dec. foll.; Oliver, 1 Mar. 1716; Jedediah, 28 June 1719; Josiah, and Hezekiah, tw. 13 Apr. 1727; and Asher, 27 Dec. 1729.

OLIVER, Malden, youngest s. of Philip the first m. in 1700 Ann Betts. PHILIP, Malden 1653, came from London in the Susan and Ellen, 1635, aged 13, or in the Planter, aged 12, for, I suppose, by the doub. entry only one boy is meant, had Rachel, b. Aug. 1653; Mary, Jan. 1656; Philip, Sept. 1658; Abigail, Dec. 1662; Elizabeth Aug. 1669; and Oliver, Apr. 1671; all probably by w. Rachel, d. I judge, of William Bachiler of Charlestown, wh. d. 5 Feb. or 7 Nov. 1674, the same rec. in Geneal. Reg. X. 241, coming from a most scrupulous hand, giv. both dates. He m. 7 Apr. 1675, Elizabeth Grover, wid. of Thomas, and she d. 3 Apr. 1688. His d. Elizabeth m. 26 Nov. foll. Philip Fowle. Perhaps he liv. some yrs. at Bradford. PHILIP, Lynn, s. prob. of the preced. m. at Bradford, 23 July 1684, Sarah Tenny of B. had at Malden, Susanna, b. 1 Feb. 1687; Sarah, 13 Apr. 1689; Rachel, 15 Nov. 1691; but perhaps others bef. or after rem.

THOMAS, Hartford 1664, by idle tradit. call. a capt. under Cromwell, was really a physician, and, 1668, of Wethersfield, by w. Abigail had Abigail, b. 30 Sept. of that yr.; Andrew, 1 Sept. 1671; Jonathan, 8 June 1675; and Joseph, 4 Oct. 1678; all liv. at his d. 1682. THOMAS, Ipswich, d. 3 Apr. 1694; and his wid. Elizabeth by wh. I kn. not that he had issue, m. 9 Sept. 1697, John West of the same, and d. 20 Aug. 1720. WILLIAM, Charlestown, freem. 1662. Of this name four have been gr. at Yale, all descend. of Herman, of wh. John M. of the class of 1814, and Charles, 1821, are brs. of Harriet Newell, the celebr. missionary in the E. Ind. AUBREY, WILLIAM, Boston, merch. came in virtue of a contr. made 1650, from London, factor for the iron works at Lynn, and was adm. 1652 of ar. co. m. 18 Jan. 1653, Rachel, d. of Secr. Edward Rawson. AUDLEY, EDMUND, Lynn, 1641. Lewis. JOHN, Boston 1632, thus spell. on the ch. rec. where his name stands No. 139; but common. it is Odlin or Odlyn, wh. see. AUGER, AGAR, or AUGUR, ANDREW, Saco, or Scarborough, perhaps better entit. See Alger. BENJAMIN, Salem, s. of William of the same, a shipwright, m. Ann, d. of Thomas Cromwell, had Benjamin, and Thomas, perhaps others, and d. Nov. 1671. His wid. m. 26 June 1672, David [[79]] Phippen. JOHN, Boston, by w. Hannah had John, b. 16 Sept. 1652. JONATHAN, Salem, br. of Benjamin, had perhaps Jonathan, wh. d. young; and Mary, ment. in a deed of 1709; but we. kn. not his wh. nor of him any thing more, exc. that in testif. 19 Oct. 1716, he call. hims. 77 yrs. old. NICHOLAS, New Haven 1643, a physician and trader, sw. alleg. 5 Aug. 1644, had brs. John and Robert (unless the latter were neph.) to wh. with sis. Esther Coster he gave most of his est. that was a good one, by will of 20 Sept. 1669, being "bound on a voyage to Boston." Yet he got back safe, and liv. sev. yrs. He was the sufferer, I judge, in 1676 and 7, on the voyage from Boston to N. H. cast away on a desolate isl. in the little vessel with Ephraim How, near Cape Sable, relation of wh. in Mather's best manner, may be read in Magn. VI. appropr. call. Thaumaturgus, c. 1. Of his inv. of £1638 the date is 26 Feb. 1678. The larger part his sis. had, to br. John (prob. then in Eng.) the beq. was only £20, and John's s. Nicholas had £100, and ano. s. had £40, and Robert, £150. After Mrs. Coster d 5 Apr. 1691, Robert, the next of kin, resist. pro. of her will, cont. some beq. for "support of religion and learning;" but he met with no success. ROBERT, New Haven, prob. neph. tho. Dodd calls him br. of the preced. m. 20 Nov. 1673, Mary, d. of dep. gov. Matthew Gilbert, had Esther, b. 19 Oct. 1677; John, 26 Nov. 1678, d. young; Ann, 14 Nov. 1682; Mary, again, 1683, d. soon; and John, again, 16 Nov. 1686; but the last was by sec. w. THOMAS, Watertown 1663, of wh. Bond, writing his name Agar, found not w. or ch. but prob. he rem. to Taunton, for the rec. of that town tells, that he m. Nov. 1665, Elizabeth Packer. But I think she may have been d. of Samuel Packard of Bridgewater, and her h. liv. in that town, perhaps, but they had then no magistr. authoriz. to solemn. m. WILLIAM, Salem 1636, perhaps earlier,for he was adm. freem. of Mass. 18 May 1631, when the Secr. gave the name Agar; by w. Alice had Benjamin, bapt. 12 Feb. 1637; and Jonathan, 10 Nov. 1639; beside elder ch. Joseph, and Abigail, wh. bec. w. of Joseph Kibben, or Kibby; and he d. 1654. His will of 31 May, pro. Nov. in that yr. names the w. and four ch. but notes, that Joseph was abroad. In ist. Coll. of Essc Inst. I. 11, Mr. Patch finds the date of his will to be 3 Mar. and of pro. June of that yr. WILLIAM, Malden, m. 7 Dec. 1659, Ruth, d. of Abraham Hill, had William, b. 20 Apr. 1661, d. soon; William, again, 30 Nov. 1662; ano. perhaps John, Oct. 1667. AUGUSTINE, JOHN, Reading 1677, had come from the Isle of Jersey, and had serv. in the comp. of Turner in the latter part of Philip's war, and in that yr. by deed on our rec. sold to John Brock; of the same place all the goods and chat. ho. and lds. left to him by f. and mo. He m. 10 Jan. 1677, Elizabeth d. of John Brown of Watertown, as Bond, 145, tells; and in 1680 took a gr. of ld. at Falmouth from Presid. Danforth, and bot. more; but on destr. by the Ind. and French, 1690, he rem. to Lynn, but [[80]] went back to F. 1719. He left wid. Elizabeth and ch. Samuel, John, Ebenezer, Thomas, David, Sarah, and Abigail, of wh. descend. are found in the vicin. to this day. Gradual change occurs in his name to Gustan, or Gustin, and is justif. by his own writ. but the wild perversity of a scrivener had pleasure in turning him into Augustine John. See Suff. Deeds, X. 131, and Willis, I. 161, 210. AULT, sometime writ. OLT, JOHN, Portsmouth 1631, sent out by Mason, the royal propr. liv. at Dover 1648 to 1657, in wh. yr. he was 73 yrs. old, and was liv. 1679. By w. Remembrance he had John; Remembrance, wh. m.

EBENEZER, Charlestown, s. of the sec. Richard, m. 8 July 1685, wid. Thankful Benjamin, had Sarah, b. 24 Oct. foll. if no error be in the rec. Elizabeth 26 Apr. 1687; and his w. d. 4 Mar. 1691. He m. 27 Jan. 1692, Rebecca, d. of Samuel Sprague of Malden, had Benjamin, 24 Feb. 1697; Rebecca, 8 Feb. 1700; both prob. d. young; Ebenezer, 21 Jan. 1704; John, 15 May 1706; Nathaniel, 3 Feb. 1708; Timothy, 16 Dec. 1710, prob. d. young; Rebecca, again, 21 Aug. 1715; Benjamin, again, 9 Mar. 1717; Timothy, again; and Samuel, 6 May 1721; and d. 16 Jan. 1723. From this last Benjamin, wh. m. 9 Dec. 1742 Elizabeth Waldo, came Hon. Jonathan L. b. 22 Dec. 1747, H. C. 1766, wh. was f. of Hon. James T. late Atty. Gen. of Mass. H. C. 1802; and Hon.

He m. 21 Jan. 1685, Elizabeth Brackett, and had Sarah, 23 Jan. 1686; and Elizabeth 1687. In 1675,a wid. Joan Jones, perhaps near relat. gave him very good est. and he d. 1690; and his wid. was d. 1695. JOHN, Scarborough, wh. m. a d. of Andrew Alger, is more common. call. Ashton, wh. see, also Southgate, 82. A [[81]] JOHN of Hartford m. Mary, wid. of Nathaniel Hooker, may be one generat. later than the s. of him of New Haven. JONAH, Hingham 1635, came in the Hercules, with w. Constance, from Sandwich, Co. Kent. He was of Tenterden; and the mayor of that borough, John Austin, perhaps his f. or near relat. certif. a. tak. the o. in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 274. Perhaps he first sat down at Cambridge, then call. Newtown, and was not many yrs. at H. being, found at Taunton 1643, and he d. there 30 July 1683.

JOSEPH, Charlestown, s. of Richard the sec. m. 10 Nov. 1692, Elizabeth Pitts; and I kn. no more. exc. by his will of 1736, pro. 18 June 1739, in wh. Elizabeth is nam. beside ch.

WILLIAM, Charlestown, s. of Richard the sec. m. 30 June 1696, Hannah Trarice, d. prob. of John of the same; but I find no more of him. One of this surname, whose bapt. name is not seen, would have gone home in 1638, from New Haven, with large prop. but was taken by the Turks, [[82]] and sold at Algiers with w. and fam. as is relat. in Winthrop Hist. II. 12, 13; so that prob. no descend. remain. Gr. in 1838 at Harv. were ten, Yale eight, and Dart. one. AVERILL, WILLIAM, Ipswich 1638, d. 1653, leav. w.

He had brot. from Eng. s. James, perhaps other ch. and was old eno. in 1667 to claim release from watch. and train. prob. d. in few yrs. Descend. have been num. and respectab. JAMES, Gloucester, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. a. 1620, m. 10 Nov. 1643, Jane Greenslade of Boston, had Hannah, b. 12 Oct. 1644; James 16 Dec. 1646; and Mary, 19 Feb. 1648; rem. that yr. to New London, there had Thomas, 6 May 1651; John, 10 Feb. 1634; Rebecca, 6 Oct. 1656; Jonathan, 5 Jan. 1609; Christopher, 30 Apr. 1661; both d. young; Samuel, 14 Aug. 1664; and Joanna, 1669. He was held in high esteem, lieut. capt. rep. 1659, often after to 1669, serv. in Philip's war, when he command. the Pequot allied force, and was liv. in Feb. 1694. JAMES, New London, s. of the preced. m. Deborah, d. prob. eldest of Edward Stallion, and well perpet. the fam. name. tho. in Caulkins I see not names and dates of ch. JOHN, Dorchester 1642, rem. to Boston, d. 31 July 1654. JOHN, of New Hampsh. was one of those wh. solicit. the protect. of Mass. in 1689.

Nathaniel Sparhawk of Cambridge, had Margaret, b. 9 Nov. 1681, d. young; Sybil, 11 Aug. 1683; Margaret, again, 20 Aug. 1686; and Dorothy, 4 July 1688; and he d. 16 Sept. 1694. His wid. m. Rev. Michael Wigglesworth. JOSEPH, (not John, as Mather, in his ambitious cap. 2 of Magn. III. 77, mislead all succeed. writers, until the recent publicat. of our contemp. Col. Rec. I. 154); would have been call. of Marblehead, as he was going to that settlem. from Ipswich, when he was lost 15 Aug. 1635, by shipwreck of the little bark in wh. with his fam. of eleven, as his cous. and fellow passeng. Thomas Thacher tells in his Narrative. By that, one of the most affecting and effective stories of disasters of this sort, Dr. Young enrich. his Chronicles of Mass. from Winthrop I. 165, we hear of the w. and six small ch. that perish with him, but the resid. no doubt, were serv. He had been a min. in his native Co. prob. of Wiltsh. and I judge had come in the James from Southampton that brot. his kinsman Thacher, but [[83]] nobody informs us, at wh. of the Univ. he was bred, or of wh. parish he had taught. Hubbard, 200, may not be taken for authority as to his coming, in the Angel Gabriel (if so he meant to be understood), for he was arr. at Boston the day bef. the Angel Gabriel weighed her anchor below Bristol. Thacher, as in the rec. bef. cited, was by our Gen. Ct. made admor. and in his inv. as well as the appoint. the dec. is named Joseph. One wh. reads with appreciative skill the authentic Narrative will disregard the acco. in the Magnalia, nor wonder, why the most heedless of authors call. him John. MATTHEW, Charlestown, mariner, had w. Ann, and s. John, to wh. by his will of 20 Apr. 1642, being then at London, pro. 13 of next Apr. he devis. his 400 acres of ld. at C.ROBERT, Dedham, perhaps s. of William of the same, was the freem. of 1690, I think, spelt Awry in the invalua. list of Mr. Paige, Geneal.

C. 1706; Jonathan, 20 Jan. 1695; and Abigail, 8 May 1699; and he d. 4 Oct. 1722. SAMUEL, New London, youngest s. of James the first, liv. on that side made Groton, of wh. town he was first officer, 1705. THOMAS, Salem, came in the John and Mary, was a blacksmith, and freem. 28 Dec. 1643. THOMAS, New London, s. of James the first, m. Ann, d. of Benjamin Shapley.

He was a lieut. 1673, of the town's comp. and freem. 1677; possib. the bookseller, ment. by Thomas, in his Hist. II. 411, certain. the rep. for Springfield 1669, and he d. at Boston 18 Mar. 1687, aged a. 65. His w. Margaret had d. 28 Sept. 1678. Of the ds.

Catal. it may be seen, that the first two of this name are not rank. by seniority, or by date of ordin. (both being, min. John of Truro, the first there, ord. Nov. 1711, and Joseph, also the first of Norton, ord. 26 Oct. 1714), or by alphabet. priority, wh. may, no doubt, be explain. by regard to the rules that of old regulat. the assignment of places. Avis, John, Boston 1679, banish. from the Col. that yr. with sev. others, on suspicion of hav. set the terrible fire of that yr. He had serv. [[84]] perhaps on Conn. riv. in Philip's war.

SAMUEL, perhaps of Lynn, perhaps of Ipswich, a youth, serv. to John Baker; as in docum. in the Rec.

SAMUEL, Haverhill, s. of Robert, [[85]] freem. 1683, m. 14 Dec. 1681, Mary Johnson, d. perhaps of Thomas of Andover, had Peter, b. 21 Dec. 1682, d. soon; Mehitable, 5 Feb. 1684; James, 27 Oct. 1686; Obadiah, 9 May 1689.

SAMUEL, Newbury, by w. Abigail had Stephen, b. 23 Mar. 1689; by w. Sarah had Jabez, 27 Dec. 1690; but Coffin seems to intend two h's as well as two ws. in wh. he may be correct, tho. it appears strange, that no other ch. is nam. no date of m. of either ment. nor d. of either h. or w. THOMAS, Haverhill 1646, prob. s. of John the first, m. 1 Apr. 1656, Elizabeth d. prob. of John Hutchins, may have rem. to Newhury, there had John, b. 12 May 1657; Elizabeth 23 Dec. 1659; Mary, 22 Mar. 1661; Love, 15 Apr. 1663; tw. s. 16 Jan. 1665, both d. soon; Thomas, 9 June 1666; and Hannah, 11 July 1671; and was freem. 1666 and d. 15 July 1671.

Thomas Hawkins, had Mary, b. 8 Oct. 1655, and he sold, the same yr. to William Hudson that est. wh. had been prop, of his f.-in-law, call. "by the name or sign of Noah's ark." His w. prob. d. early, and he, I think, must have gone home. AYRAULT, or AYROULD, NICHOLAS, Wethersfield, a physician, driv. by the revocat. of the edict of Nantz to fly his native ld. wh. prob. was Rochelle, a. 1686, or earlier, m. at Providence Marian Breton, had Peter, Nicholas, and other ch. and d. 1706. Of Nicholas jr. and Peter, see acco. in Hinman. SAMUEL, R. I. a physician, by Hinman, Ed. 2, p. 90, presum. to be br. or f. of the preced. but nothing definite as to fam. of these Huguenots is easily accessib. No doubt he came betw. 1685 and 9; but it would not surprise me to have it ascertain. that Hinman's Samuel wa, the same as STEPHEN, Newport 1685, one of the blessed army of French protestant exiles. His s. Daniel m. 9 May 1703, Mary Robineau of New York. AYRES, EDWARD, Kittery 1685. MARK, and NATHANIEL, N. H. 1689 req. protect. of Mass. AZELL, HUMPHEY, Kittery 1682,was one of the found. of Bapt. ch. there. BAALAM, CHARLES, is the name of a passeng. last on the list, coming to Boston from London 1656, aged 18, in the Speedwell, the same voyage on wh. came the earliest Quakers; and tho. it is not charg. against him, that he was of that sect, yet is it almost certain that he soon left this ld. BABB, JONATHAN, Springfield, took o. of alleg. with Samuel, perhaps his br. 31 Dec. 1678, or the next day, but no more is kn. of either. PHILIP, Kittery 1652, and next yr. was assoc. under commis. from Mass. with Maj. Bryan Pendleton, Nicholas Shapleigh, and others, in the governm. of Isle of Shoals, and a few yrs. later liv. there, in 1666 was empow. to take depons. The name is perpet. in N. H.

(whose name is not heard) James, b. a. 1641; John, 1644; Job; and Mary. By tradit. it is said, that he came from Co. Essex, and on giv. evid. with his two elder s. 1670, call. them 29 and 26 yrs. respectiv. he sw. that he was 58, and spells with d. at the end of his first syllab. From the idle and discord. tradit. that he brot. from Eng. childr. b. from 1612 to 1620 (when the f. would have been betw. 1 and 8 yrs. old), this testim. relieves the geneal. A sec. w. Elizabeth and three ch. by her, one nam. Joseph, the oldest only 9 yrs. old, are provid. for in his nuncup. will, 12 June 1679, the day he d. of wh. s. John and Job were witness. as also to Job were giv. his smith's tools, beside gifts to Mary Champlin, his d. thot. to be w. of William, and to s. Joseph, when he comes to 21 yrs. JAMES, Westerly, eldest s. of the preced. d. 1698, leav. wid. Mary, and eldest s. James, as the rec. of W. it is said, proves; but names of other ch. are not giv. They were Sarah, Jane, Mary, Hannah, Elizabeth William, and Job. Part of the acco. of this James may be easily confus. with that of his br. John. JOB, Westerly, a miller, prob. br. of the preced. d. a. 1718, and in his will calls eldest s. Job, other ch. John, Benjamin, Jane Braman, Sarah Hall, Mary Tanner, Elizabeth Brand, Hannah, and Mary. JOHN, Stonington 1670, s. of the first James, Wh. had prob. own. ld. on both sides of the riv. within disput. bounds of Conn. and R. I. He had. w. Mary, ch. James, Ann, Mary, John, Job, George, Elihu, Robert, Joseph, and Oliver. Fam. tradit. makes his w. to be a Lawton, perhaps sis. of George the first; and it may be nearer the truth, when it tells of his runaway match with the d. of his master, their kind recept. by the Ind. in the wilderness, discov. of his d. and her h. some four yrs. after by the bride's f. and forgiveness, liberality & c. than as it relates his d. 19 July 1719, "aged over one hundred yrs." For ano. John, perhaps his 8. that protraction of days, tho. unlikely, might be correct, yet the f. d. from twenty to forty yrs. too early, and his wid. m. bef. 1700 Erasmus Babbit. Indeed his d. is marked 1685, and his wid. nam. Mary, and eldest 8. James, but these three items concur. with those of his br. James, lead us to apprehend that the geneal. may be confus. between them. JOSEPH, Westerly, s. prob. youngest, of the first James, m. 13 Apr. 1696, Dorothy Key, had Elizabeth b. 29 Jan. 1698; had his w. d. 14 Dec. 1727. by sec. w. Hannah Coats, he had Authority, 2 Feb. 1730; Abigail, 30 Apr. 1731; Joseph, 14 Oct. 1733; and John, 26 Jan. 1736.RETURN, Dartmouth bef. 1686, and liv. to be nam. Nov. 1694 in deed of confirmat. of the town. Strange is the combinat. of errors, in Hinman, 111, [[87]] a. one James B. wh. went to Leyden in Holland 1620, join. the friends of Robinson, and came in the Ann, 1623, to Plymouth, the narrat. enlarg. a. the resid. of the fam. there. Now we kn. that no passeng. of this name came in that ship; and I have very strong reason, after much inquiry, to doubt that any such man liv. in the Col. for its earliest forty yrs. Of this name, in 1834, both forms of spell. inclus. seven had been gr. at Yale, and five at Harv. as Farmer found. BABER, WILLIAM, Boston 1648, had John. BABSON, EBENEZER, Gloucester, youngest s. of James, wonderf. bewilder. by diabol. agency, as told by Rev. John Emerson, his spiritu. guide, to C. Mather, and in its appropr. place, Magn. VII. 82-84, may be read. Niles, in his tale, 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VI. 231, seems more cautious, or less inclin. to honor Satan. JAMES, Gloucester, came, no doubt in comp. with his mo. Isabel (a wid. wh. had lds. there, 1644, and after until her d. G or 8 Apr. 1661, aged 81, or more, as also gr. in 1637 at Salem), m. 16 Nov. 1617, Elinor Hill s. of Zebulon, had James, b. 2 Sept. 1648; Elinor, 15 June 1601; Philip, 15 Oct. 1654; Sarah, 15 Feb. 1657, d. at 20 yrs; Thomas, 21 May 1658; John, 27 Nov. 1660; Richard, 1 June 1663; Elizabeth 8 Oct. 1665; and Ebenezer, 8 Feb. 1668, the bef. ment. playmate with the devil; beside Abigail, 1670. He was freem. 1666, and d. 1683. His s. Thomas serv. long in Philip's war but soon d. prob. unm. JOHN, Gloucester, s. of the preced. m. 1686, Dorcas Elwell, d. of Josiah, and Elizabeth b. 1687; James, 1689; John, 1691; and Josiah, 1703. He and w. d. 1737. PHILIP, Salem, br. of the preced. m. 1689, Hannah Baker, had Ann, and his w. d. 1692. BACHILER, BACHELOR, BACHELLER, BACHELDER, BATCHELOR, or BATCHELDER, ALEXANDER, Portsmouth 1652, of wh. I kn. no more, but that he was the ferryman. DAVID, Reading, s. of John the first, of the same, is no otherwise kn. to me. HENRY, Ipswich, a brewer, from Dover, Co. Kent, came in 1636, with w. Martha, and four serv. as set forth in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 276, bec. the founder of a num. line, as was thot. in former days from so many spring. at Ipswich; prob. ch. of two brs. of Henry; but any kn. of his childr. is not gain. and we kn. only that he d. 2 Feb. 1679, and his wid. d. 4 Apr. 1686. Yet inv. of his est. was not ret. bef. many yrs. Its date is 15 May 1696. Of his br. John are nam. three ch. John, Josiah, and Hannah; and of his br. Joshua are nam. three, John, Elizabeth and Hannah Warner, w. I presume of John Varner, unless her d. Hannah be meant, if these names are found in order of distrib. of the est. as is most prob. HENRY, Reading. prob. s. of Rev. Stephen, may be he, wh. was persecut. 1660, as a Quaker. JOHN, Dedham, had been of Watertown, freem. 6 May 1635, not, as Bond states, 13 May 1640, that being the day of ano. hav. the same name, was selectman of W. 1636, and at D. had Samuel, b. 8 (Bond says 11) Jan. 1640; Jonathan, and David, b. 14, bapt. 24 Dec. 1643, describ. in the homely phrase of ch. rec. "being the childr. of one burthen to our br. J. B. and his w. our sis." when it would have been agreeable to see her name. He rem. Mr. [[88]] Haven, 13, says, to Hampton. JOHN, Salem 1638, perhaps earlier, had gr. of ld. 1639, was the freem. of 13 May 1640, is by tradit. said to be from Dorsetsh. but more prob. was that tailor from Canterbury, Co. Kent, wh. came in 1636, perhaps br. of Henry, bef. ment. by w. Mary had at S. John, bapt. Jan. 1639, d. at 7 yrs.; Mary, Sept. 1640; Abigail, 12 Feb. 1643; Hannah, 23 June 1644, d. soon; Hannah, again, 25 May 1645; John, again, 23 June 1650; and Joseph, 8 May 1653; and d. 13 Nov. 1675, his w. Elizabeth hav. a. three days bef. unless some confus. of name exist in the report. In his will of 1673, w. Elizabeth s. John, and Joseph, d. Hannah Corning, and gr. ch. John Cressy are ment. JOHN, Reading, freem. 1666, had Jonathan, wh. d. 4 Dec. 1653; David; and John, but the order of b. is not seen, beside Samuel, wh. d. 20 Mar. 1662, the mo. Rebecca hav. d. sixteen days bef. and he d. May 1676. Of ano. JOHN, freem. 1670, it is not kn. where he liv. but it may well seem, that he was s. of the preced. bec. he d. at Reading, 1705. JOHN, Salem, prob. s. of the first John, m. 14 Aug. 1673, Mary Herrick, perhaps d. of Zechary, had John b. 26 Apr. 1675; and Jonathan, 29 Mar. 1678; beside Josiah, 6 Mar. 1680; and he d. 6 Aug. 1684, and the wid. d. within two wks. aft. Ano. JOHN, at Salem 1692, was one of the jurors in the sad witchcraft trials, and recant. magnanimous. from their damnable verdicts. John p.,late Presid. of the Berksh. Med. Inst. and other descend. of this stock give,uniform. spell. of their name Batchelder. JOSEPH, Salem, a tailor, perhaps, elder br. of John the first, came, 1636, from Canterbury, Co. Kent, with w. Elizabeth one ch. and three serv. acc. the certif. of the Mayor of Sandwich, where they, emb. was freem. Mar. 1638; rem. to Wenham, of wh. he was rep. 1644.

JOSEPH, Salem, youngest s. of the first John of the same, m. 8 Oct. 1677, Miriam Moulton, had Joseph, b. 18 July foll. JOSHUA, Ipswich, br. of Henry, of the same, came from Kent, but no more can be heard of him, exc. that he had at least three ch. John, Elizabeth and Hannah Warner, w. of Daniel of the same, entit. to sh. in the est. of his br. Henry. MARK, Wenham, freem. 1663, may have been s. of the preced. or not, was a soldier in the comp. of Gardner, and in the great battle of 19 Dec. 1675 was k. with his capt. NATHANIEL, Hampton, eldest s. of the Rev. Stephen, b. a. 1611, m. 1656 Deborah, d. of John Smith, and had, it is said, seventeen childr. (only nine by her), many of whose names it might be not easy to find, but one was Nathaniel. At Woburn he took sec. w. 31 Oct. 1676, Mary Wyman, wid. of John, and d. of Rev. Thomas Carter, had eight ch. and from Coffin's gatherings in Geneal. Reg. VI. 207 we learn that he had third w. Elizabeth She was wid. of John Knill of Charlestown, m. 23 Oct. 1689. STEPHEN, Lynn, the first min. there, b. a. 1561, came to Boston in the William and Francis, 5 June 1632, from London, preach. at L. next yr. was freem. 6 May 1635, and next yr. was at Ipswich, perhaps at Yarmouth 1637, but in 1638 went to Newbury, in 1639 to Hampton, whence in 1641 he was dism. and some time after may be heard of at Saco.

Of this first John descend. still enjoy part of their ancestral prop. and from this stock is the Rev. Leonard of New Haven, the perspicacious stud. of early N. E. manners. JOHN, Charlestown, perhaps s. of Daniel the first, for all the knowl. of wh. we are indebt. to Hammond's Diary, relat. that his ch. (as if he had but one) d. 18 Mar. his w. on 20th, and hims. on 7 Apr. 1678, all of smallpox. By Mr. Wyman I am inform. that he m. 2 Sept. 1668, Susanna, d. of James Draper, had John, b. 27 Aug. 1670; Susanna, 3 Jan. 1672; and Ephraim, 17 Nov. 1675.

Nathaniel, whose date may be lost. His w. d. 6 July 1680, and he m. 17 Apr. 1682, Elizabeth Pierpont, prob. wid. of one whose name is not seen, had Beriah, 17 Aug. of the same yr. unless we suppose an error in the rec. of m. or of b.

John Fletcher of Milford [[92]] (wh. d. the foll. yr.) relative to the ancestry of this Nathaniel, at wh. was present a party advers. interest. might, without violence, be constr. to refer equally to the Barnstable fam. tho. it is less prob. NATHANIEL, Barnstable, s. of the first Nathaniel, m. 27 Mar. 1673, Sarah, d. of Gov. Hinckley, had Nathaniel, b. 9 Sept. 1674 ; Mary, 9 Oct. 1677; Elizabeth 11 Apr. 1680; and Samuel, 20 Jan. 1682. His w. d. 16 Feb. 1687; and he d. Dec. 1691. RICHARD, may be that passeng. in 1635 on board the James from Bristol, call. Becon by Richard Mather, when he relates the loss of his right hand in the gr. Aug. storm, for wh. see Young's Chron. of Mass. 475. Certain. no more is kn. of him. SAMUEL, Barnstable, m. 9 May 1659, Martha Foxwell, had Samuel, b. 9 Mar. 1660; and Martha, 6 Jan. 1662. SAMUEL, Barnstable, s. of Nathaniel the first, m. 17 Dec. 1675, Mary, d. of John Jacob of Hingham, whither he rem. had Hannah, b. 12 Oct. 1676, d. at 2 mos.; Hannah, again, 10 Feb. 1678; and Mary, 7 Feb. 1680; and he d. 18 Feb. 1631.

Nov. 1653, leav. wid. Rebecca, d. it is said, of Thomas Potter of Coventry, wh. had been mayor of that borough. His will ment. w. and s. also Ann Potter. They had liv. in Dublin, and, on the outbreak of the Irish rebellion, she was sent over here, says tradit. and her h. foll. soon; but her br. Humphrey P. and other relat. perish. in the massacre. Her will of 23 Mar. 1655, pro. 29 Nov. foll. names cous. i. e. niece, Ann Potter, and John Bacon, beside sis. Judith in O. E. Some community of origin may be, perhaps, traced to this tradit. and to that of Michael; yet the flight from the rebellion would seem more natural in that early day to be direct. to Eng. Felt says, William was freem. after 1643; but the evidence is not seen. In 1834 Farmer found the gr. of this name to be seven at Yale, four at Harv. and four at other N. E. coll. the earliest of wh. Jacob, H. C. 1731, min. of Plymouth, was gr.gr.s. of the first Michael.

ENOCH, Dorchester, br. of Robert, d. 1711, leav. William, Susan, Mary, Elizabeth and Sarah. GEORGE, New Haven 1640, serv. of Gov. Eaton, under indent. for six yrs. may have rem. to Dorchester, liv. in that pt. now Milton, perhaps br. of Robert of the same, had George, b. 26 Feb. 1658; possib. other ch. GEORGE, Milton, s. perhaps of the preced. or of Robert, had, as Morse supposes, Dorothy, wh. m. Ebenezer Wood, and, it may be, more; yet this seems very loose, without dates. His will, of 26 Sept. 1671, ment. w. Mary, s. Benjamin, Return, Enoch, and sev. ds. JAMES, Portsmouth, R. I. among freem. in 1655, rem. to the other side of Narraganset Bay. See Babcock, and observe, that the strange delusion of Hinman a. the glorious comp. of Leyden pilgr. by the Ann, 1623, is adopt. by Morse, as if such a brat were better rear. than stifled. ROBERT, Dorchester 1648, next of Milton, had Nathaniel, b. 14 Mar. 1658; Caleb, 1660; Ebenezer, bapt. at D. 5 [[93]] July 1663; Hopestill, 8 Nov. 1663; Hannah, 28 May 1665; Elizabeth 24 Oct. 1666; beside other ch. of wh. one I think, was George.

He d. 31 Mar. 1691, and his w. at near the same date, both of smallpox. NATHANIEL, Newbury 1635, br. of Giles, perhaps elder, had w. Hannah, but I can hear no more of him, nor of ano. br. RICHARD. THOMAS, New Haven 1639, of wh. no good is told. In 1834 four gr. of this name had come from Yale, two from Harv. and two from other N. E. coll. BADLAM, WILLIAM, Boston, by w. Joan had John, b. 8 Feb. 1687; may be the same man that had, at Weymouth, by w. Mary, William, 20 Dec. 1693; and Mary, 14 July 1699. BADMAN, JOHN, Boston, by w. Sarah had Lydia, b. 26 Apr. 1656.

BAGLEY, JOHN, wh. had, I suppose, been one of Lyon Gardiner's men at Saybrook in 1637, should be found at Watertown 1643, but Bond in his all embracing vol. has not appoint. him a place there. One John, perhaps a s. was a soldier, and James was ano. of GallopÕs comp. to Quebec, 1690. ORLANDO, Salisbury, m. 6 Mar. 1654, Sarah, d. of Anthony Colby, had Orlando, b. at Boston, 18 Feb. 1659; and perhaps other ch.

S. ch. in Boston, but was sett. as success. to famous John Sherman, at W. 6 Oct. 1686. His w.

Henry, of Manchester in Eng. he wrote in 1688, of his love to mo. and sis. Lydia in his native ld. of his own infirm health here, and in a querulous temper. The Magnalia, III. 232 finds, in his early serv. in Ireland the wounds to his constitut. "wh. could never be recover." All that need be kn. of him is well told by Francis, in Hist. of W. 52, 8, and 141.

JOHN, Ipswich, 1634, freem. 14 May of that yr. perhaps, is in later yrs. ment. in the town rec. with prefix of respect; yet so frequent is the concur. of this name of bapt. with the surname, as to justify doubt, whether that day's freem. were not JOHN, ment. by Frothingham, 80, as com. to Charlestown 1630, and rem. 1637, or that JOHN, of wh. Winthrop II. 29, tells, how he rem. from Boston to Newbury, grew rich too fast, went thence to York, and back with contrition to B. Assignm. of resid. becomes especial. diffic. in such cases, as in the freem. of 2 June 1641, where twice John Baker is count. and after minute comparis. of the incid. belong. to the names above and below each John, a confid. conject. may be offer. that one was of Ipswich, perhaps he wh. was b. at Norwich, Co.

JOHN, Boston, that early mem. of the ch. wh. by, w. Charity had Charity, bapt. 12 Apr. 1635, may be the freem. of 18 May 1642. JOHN of Wells, wh. may be the man, that had ho. in 1675 on w. side of Kennebeck liv. near Arowsick isl. when the war broke out, was, we kn. sw. freem. 1653; but tolerab. sure am I, that JOHN of Woburn was not, since he was sentenc. to be whip. and to m. Susanna Martin (the inflict. of the latter pt. of the punish. being on 28 May 1654); by her he had John, b. 25 Mar. preced. Mary, 22 Feb. 1656; Joseph, 15 June 1657, d. soon; Joseph, again, 1 Feb. 1660; Susanna, 15 Mar. 1652, d. soon; Susanna, again, 12 Apr. 1663; a s. whose name is not seen on the rec. 8 Mar. 1664, d. next week; Samuel, 21 Apr. 1665; Benjamin, 24 May 1667; James, 10 June 1670; Jonathan, 2 Apr. 1674; and William, 18 Aug. 1679. JOHN, Boston, blacksmith, ar. co. 1644, had m. John, eldest d. of Thomas Swift, of Dorchester, sev. yrs. (prob. ten) bef. 5 Nov. 1657, wh. date from the MS. vol. in the Boston office of reg. usual.

By her he had John, wh. d. young, 20 June 1654; Thomas, b. 12 Feb. 1654; Samuel, 16 Apr. 1650, d. in 3 mos.; Nathaniel, 4 Apr. 1656, d. soon; of wh. four ch. the false certif. on rec. would make all b. bef. the m. Also he had John, again, 17 July 1658, d. in few mos. and Elizabeth 26 June 1660; and d. I think in July 1666, leav. good est. but in his will of 26 Mar. preced. names only the s. Thomas, and d.

He d. 26 Aug. 1690, and his wid. d. 25 Nov. 1711. JOHN, Roxbury, had only Thomas, h. there 20 May 1676. JOHN, Ipswich, s. of John of the same, brot. from Eng. m. 13 May 1667, Catharine, d. of Rev. William Perkins, had Elizabeth b. 1670; John; and perhaps others. JOHN, Yarmouth, s. of Francis, by w. Alice had John, b. May 1672; Bethia, Nov. 1673; Sarah, Sept. 1677; Jonathan; Isaac; Mary; and Elizabeth JOHN, Hull, freem. 1677. JOHN, Hartford, was there as early as 1665, m. Lydia, d. of John Baysey, had John, Baysey, and Joseph, all s. and perhaps other ch. His w. d. 16 May 1700. JOHN, Dorchester, freem. 1677. JOHN, New London 1678, perhaps s. of William. JOHN, Dedham, s. of Edward, was liv. there 1678, may have been f. of that Daniel, b. 18 Apr. 1686, H. C. 1706, wh. was min. of Sherborn, ord. 1713. JOHN, Woburn, perhaps s. of John of the same, m. 18 Oct. 1682, Hannah, d. of George Polley, had Hannah, b. 5 Dec. 1683, d. soon; Hannah, again, 3 Aug. 1685; and John, 27 June 1687, perhaps more. JOSEPH, Northampton, s. of Edward, m. 5 Feb. 1663, Ruth, d. of William Holton, was k. by the Ind. 29 Oct. 1675, with his s. Joseph, b. 20 Jan. 1665; leav. Ruth, b. 6 May 1668; Mary, 5 Sept. 1670; and Samuel, 11 Sept. 1672. Joseph was the name liv. to his posthum. s. b. 25, bapt. 30 Jan. foll. His wid. m. 1678, Thomas Lyman.

Nathaniel Cook, had Joseph, b. 13 Apr. 1678; Lydia, 5 July 1681; and Samuel, 17 Oct. 1684, wh. d. 16 Oct. 1685. The f. d. 11 Dec. 1691; and his wid. m. John Loomis. Yet the recent hist. of W. p. 526, gives two more ch. Hannah, 19 Dec. 1686, wh. d. next yr.; and Ebenezer, 17 July 1689, wh. may be correct. But great is my doubt of the accura. of his add. of sec. w. 8 July 1702, Hannah Pomeroy of Northampton, and ten more ch. the latest, 14 May 1722. Hinman, in his Catal. of 1852, p. 110, says, his will was made 1691, and he d. that yr. refer. to Windsor rec. Prob. Stiles confils. two persons. JOSEPH, Woburn, prob. s. of John the first, of the same, m. 4 Oct. 1686, Hannah Bauk, if rightly this name be writ JOSHUA, New London, s. of Alexander, m. 13 Sept. 1674, Hannah, wid.

William Lane of Dorchester), had Mary, bapt. July 1639. wh. m. 16 Dec. 1657, John Loring, perhaps his only ch. and d. 3 June 1682. In his will of 11 May preced. after provis. for his wid. and two Ind. slaves, he gave most of his prop. to gr.childr. yet with 3 reasona. mem. to six ch. of his late br. Nicholas, of Scituate. See Lincoln, Cent. Addr. 39. Farmer mistook him for s. of Nicholas. NATHANIEL, Yarmouth, eldest s. of Francis, had three s. Samuel, b. 29 Oct. Nathaniel, 27 Jan. 1672; and prob. the other was nam. Silas, says Mr. Otis. Both he and his w. d. Dec. 1691, as Mr. O. assures me. NICHOLAS, Hingham 1635, br. of the first Nathaniel, freem. 3 Mar. 1636, rep. 1636 and 8, rem. to Scituate, there was ord. 1660, third min. of the first ch. and was of such good temper as to reconcile the two chs. wh. had quarrel. for thirty yrs. He had Samuel, bapt. 7 Oct. 1638; John, 6 Nov. 1642; Elizabeth Nov. 1644; and Deborah, 6 June 1652. Mather, with his habitual carelessness, cays, in the Magn. III. 219, "he had but a private educat." taking occasion to utter one of his brilliant clauses; yet I found at St. John's Coll. Cambr. that he had his A. B. 1631-2, and A. M. 1635. A short time he stopped at Roxbury. His w. that prob. was mo. of all his ch. d. 4 Apr. 1661, and he next yr. took ano. of wh. the bapt. name Grace only is kn. and d. 22 Aug. 1678, aged 67. Her he made Extrix. of his will, in wh. he names six ch. Samuel, Nicholas, Elizabeth Sarah, Deborah, and Mary. The wid. Grace d. 22 Jan. 1697. All the ds. were m. Mary, 26 Feb. 1662, to Stephen Vinal; Elizabeth m. 1664 to John Vinal; Sarah m. 1671, Josiah Litchfield; and Deborah m. 1678, Israel Chittenden. Deane, 181-3. NICHOLAS, Marblehead, wh. Willis, I. 135, says m. Elizabeth d. of George Bartlett of Scarborough, may have been s. of the preced. but we want the illumin. of a date. Of one Nicholas, late of Boston, mariner, wh. may have been a gr.s. of Rev. Nicholas, admin. was gr. 8 Oct. 1695, to his mo. in law, Jane Colyer of Hull. RICHARD, Dorchester, 1639, freem. 18 May 1642, ar. co. 1658, by w. Faith, d. of Henry Withington, wh. d. 3 Feb. 1689, had Mary, b. 27 Apr. 1643, beside five other ds. perhaps, and certain. two s. only one having, date, and one even without a giv. name, as by his will of 7 Oct. 1689 is shown, viz. John; James; Thankful, w. of William Griggs; Elizabeth w. of a Pratt; Hannah, b. 9 Jan. 1663, wh. had m. 5 May 1685, John Wiswall; Sarah, then dec. wh. had been w. of James White, m. 22 Feb. 1665, tho. the Hist. of D. makes her b. three yrs. later than this m. p. 106;--also, for one r. Mary; and one, the w. of Samuel Robinson. He had been selectman 1653, constable, 1663, and d. 25 Oct. 1689, as Geneal. Reg. V. 395 [[99]] teaches. ROBERT, Salem, wh. had gr. of ld. 1637, was k. by casualty 1640. See Winthrop II. 24. ROBERT, Roxbury, by w. Mary had Robert, b. 29 Oct. 1673, wh. d. at 11 yrs.; Mary, 11 Oct. 1675; Sarah, 24 Dec. 1676; Matthew, 5 Sept. 1678, wh. d. at 17 yrs.; Joseph, 4 Nov. 1680; Benjamin, 15 Aug. 1682; and Ann, 8 June 1685; and he d. 25 Oct. 1720. Ment. on the rec. of d. is seen of two ch. viz. Elizabeth 11 Sept. and Jonathan, 24 Sept. 1694, of neither of wh. can the b. be found. SAMUEL, Lynn, came in the Elizabeth and Ann 1635, aged 30, from London; but he was of Co. Kent, says tradit. and d. 16 Dec. 1666. SAMUEL, Marshfield, not s. of Nicholas, as was once thot. m. 29 Dec. 1656, Elinor, d. of Kenelm Winslow, had Kenelm, b. 23 Mar. 1658, Lydia, 18 Feb. 1660; Elizabeth 18 Mar. 1662; Alice, 19 May 1663; and Elinor; 1665; beside others in 1667, 9, and 71, of whose names, in the mutilat. state of the rec. no certainty can be attain. His w. d. or was bur. 27 Aug. 1676, and he m. 21 Feb. foll. Patience, wid. perhaps of the first Moses Simmons of Duxbury, had Samuel. SAMUEL, Windsor 1669, then among freem. m. 30 June 1670, Sarah, eldest d. of Nathaniel Cooke of the same. SAMUEL, Hull, s. of Rev. Nicholas, freem. 1677, m. Fear, d. of Isaac Robinson, rem. to Barnstable, there had adm. with his w. 1687, to that ch. on dism. from H. THOMAS, Milford 1639, Easthampton, L. I. 1650, was, perhaps, that Assist. of Conn. from 1658 to 63. THOMAS, Roxbury, s. of John the first of Ipswich, freem. 1619, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 2 Oct. 1641; John; Joseph, 24, bapt. 27 Feb. 1648; Sarah, 24, bapt. 28 Apr. 1650; Mary, bapt. 6 June 1652, d. in 5 weeks; Mary, again, 11 Sept. 1653; and for sec. w. took 27 Mar. or May 1663, Mary, d. of Robert Gamlin, had Thomas, b. 7 Jan. 1664; and Mary, 27 July 1667; and he d. 28 Jan. 1684, "old, b]ind, godly," in the express. rec. of ch. His s. Thomas was k. by the Ind. at Sudbury fight Apr. 1676, surely a very young soldier, under Wadsworth, but he had serv. in the Narraganset campaign as one of Johnson's comp. in Dec. bef. i. e. less than twelve yrs. old. No incid. of those days more striking. gives proof of the extens. reach of the perils. Sarah m. 19 Apr. 1671, Sebas Jackson; and Mary m. Roger Adams. THOMAS, Boston, by w. Leah had Rachel, b. 7 Feb. 1659. THOMAS, Lynn, s. of the first Edward of the same, m. 10 July 1689, Mary Lewis, perhaps d. of John. In June 1730, he testif. that he was 77 yrs. old, and that Andrew Townsend of L. wh. he had well kn. 55 yrs. was wound. in the gr. Narraganset fight, 19 Dec. 1675, under Capt. Gardner. THOMAS, Topsfield, s. of the first John of Ipswich, brot. by his f. 1637, freem. 1665, m. 26 Mar. 1673, Priscilla, d. of Dept. Gov. Samuel Symonds, had Priscilla, b. 8 Dec. 1674; Martha, 14 Oct. 1682; Rebecca, 16 Nov. 1685; Thomas, 17 Feb. 1688; John, 6 Jan. 1691; and Elizabeth bapt. 17 Sept. 1693. He d. 18 Mar. 1718, aged by fam. tradit. 81 yrs. 6 mos. 5 days; so b. 13 Sept. 1636; and the wid. d. 2 Jan. 1733, aged 85. Priscilla m. Isaac Appleton. was a milit. officer, and rep. 1686, 9, and 90. THOMAS, a min. 1678 at Newport, I hear nothing, more of. THOMAS, New London 1686, may have been s. of William, and certain. left ch. but names and dates of them are unkn. One THOMAS, of Boston, was [[100]] head of a fam. 1691; and ano. THOMAS at Lynn was freem. 1691. THOMAS, Yarmouth, youngest s. of Francis, by w. Bathsheba had Mary, b. 7 Apr. 1701; and Thomas, 4 Mar. 1703. TIMOTHY, Northampton, s. of Edward, freem. 1676, m. 16 Jan. 1672, Grace. d. of John Marsh of Hadley, had Grace, b. 1673, a. soon; Timothy, 1675; and his w. d. 31 May 1676. For sec. w. he took Sarah, wid. of Rev. Hope Atherton, d. of John Hollister, and had John, b. 3 Feb. 1680; Thomas, 14 May 1682; Edward, 12 Nov. 1685 ; Prudence, 14 May 1687; and Deliverance, 13 Nov. 1689. His w. d. 8 Dec. 1691; and he d. 30 Aug. 1729. His third s. was the youth, wh. m. Christina, d. of Richard Otis, that was taken by the Ind. at 3 mos. old, from Dover; with her mo. when they k. her f. 1689, and car. to Canada, there after a priestly educat. made a Catholic by bapt. and m. a Frenchman, wh. had by her two ch. bef. his d. Baker had been made a pris. by the Ind. prob. tak. to Canada in 1704, and in differ. capacity in 1719, accomp. Col. Stoddard to bring home the prisoners from Quebec. Many descend. in N. E. and remote parts spring from this m. among others Hon. John Wentworth, late M. C. from Chicago, and present mayor of that prosper. city. WALTER, Scituate, was suspect. in 1651, of murder of John Winter; but no support was found for that surmise. WILLIAM, Charlestown 1633, freem. 3 Sept. 1634, hav. join. the ch. in Aug. 1633, was one of the petitnrs. in favor of Wheelwright, but seasona. chang. his mind, and contin. in good stand.; by w. Joan had Sarah (Mr. Wyman calls her Mary), bapt. 20 May 1638; Stephen, 20 Feb. 1642; and Martha, 21 Apr. 1644; was a selectman 1646, and d. 8 Nov. 1658. His wid. d. 26 Sept. 1669. Frothingham, 82, 5. WILLIAM, Plymouth 1643, may, I think, have been first of R. I. as early as 1638, and prob. went thither again, being count. among the freem. 1655, at Portsmouth. WILLIAM, Boston, pump-maker, m. 23 Sept. 1651, Mary, d. of Edmund Eddington, had Mary, b. 16 May 1602, d. at 3 mos.; John, 14 Dec. 1653; and William, 19 Oct. 1650. His w. d. 12 Dec. foll. and he m. 22 Apr. next, Pilgrim, eldest d. of John Eddy of Watertown. But gr. uncert. or confils. appears after this, for Bond, 203, and 755, makes a doubt, whether she were w. of P. Stedman bef. or after Baker. Yet she was young, when B. m. her, and he rem. prob. to Concord, and there he or ano. William d. leav. wid. Mary and s. William. His inv.is of 17 June 1679. WILLlAM, New London 1652-60, was perhaps f: of Thomas. WILLIAM, Yarmouth, s. of Francis, by w.

His wid. d. 1753. Of this name, 1834, Farmer counts nine gr. at Harv. seven at Yale, four at Dart. and seven at the [[101]] other coll. in N. E. Prob. as the name is so very common, some fams. are omit. BALCH, BENJAMIN, Beverly, eldest 3. of the first John of the same, m. Sarah, d. of the first Thomas Gardner, had Samuel, b. 1651; John, 1654; Joseph, a soldier of "the flower of Essex" under Capt. Lathrop, k. by the Ind. 18 Sept. 1675, at Bloody brook; and Freeborn, 9 Aug. 1660; and he d. a. 1706, many yrs. after his w. as we infer from her not being ment. in his will of 18 Jan. 1689. Being call. 77 yrs. old, it has been hastily assum. that he was the first b. of Mass. as the late Dr. Bentley stoutly assert. the same honor for John Massey, and brot. forward, as his best evid. the cradle, in wh. he was rocked. But Felt seems to prove, that Roger, s. of Roger Conant, was b. at Salem bef. Massey or Balch. It is thot. all of this name in N. E. descend. FREEBORN, Salem, youngest s. of the first John, disappears a. 1658, prob. going for Eng. that yr. and not heard of after. JOHN, Salem, one of the earliest sett. of Mass. from the vicin. of Bridgewater, Co. Somerset. came, it is said with suffic. probabil. in 1623, with Robert Gorges, to make establishm. at Cape Ann, or Nantasket, and on encouragem. from White the min. of Dorchester, a most earnest promoter of the colony, rem. with Roger Conant to plant at Salem, on Beverly side, then call. Bass riv. He req. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and took the o.18 May foll. By his w. Margaret, one of the earliest mem. of the ch. of Higginson, was b. Benjamin, a. 1623, John, and Freeborn; but he had sec. w. Agnes, or Annis, nam. with those s. in his will of 15 May, pro. 28 June 1648. JOHN, Beverly, s. of the preced. m. Mary, d. of Roger Conant, had Mary, wh. d. young; and it is not seen, that he had other issue, exc. d. Mary, again. He was drown. 16 June 1662, and his wid. m. William Dodge. Good memoir of this fam. is print. in Geneal. Reo. IX. 233. Farmer notes, that in 1829 five of this name had been gr. at Harv. and one at Dart. BALCOM, or BOLKCOM, ALEXANDER, Providence, call. junr. when he sw. alleg. May 1682, tho. of an earlier Alexander there, perhaps his f. I find nothing. He rem. to that pt. of Rehoboth, since call.

See Adams, Ann. 18. HENRY, Woburn, freem. 1652, was, as is said, from Devonsh. m. 1 Nov. 1649, Phebe, eldest d. of Ezekiel Richardson, of the same, had Susanna, b. 30 Aug. 1650, d. soon; Susanna, again, 25 July 1652; Phebe, 7 Sept. 1654; John, 28 Oct. 1636; Daniel, 15 Mar. 1659; Timothy, 27 May 1661; Mary, 19 July 1663, d. within 6 mos.; Henry, 15 Nov. 1664; Abigail, 20 Aug. 1667; Ruth, 21 July 1670; and Benjamin, 20 Feb. 1673; was deac. and d. 14 Feb. 1698.

In some rec. will be seen Theophilus, b. 26 Apr. 1659, but perhaps it is an error of the yr. he was town clk. 1648, and rep. 1660 to his d. 23 July 1665.

NATHANIEL, Concord, s. perhaps elder, of the first John, in the will of Ralph Mousall call. cousin, i. e. neph. by w.

C. 1735, (that min. of Westfield, wh. d. 12 Feb. 1776); beside Mary, and William; was of ar. co. 1694, was in high esteem, and perhaps the rep. of 1726, tho. in Geneal. Reg.

His will of 6 Dec. 1669, but few days bef. he d. names w. Hannah and only seven ch. so that it may be conclud. that Benjamin and Sarah, not ment. had d. young. Of the inv. of any cooper in the early yrs. I have common. found a good result, and such was his; yet more import. are the questions of his b. and of his coming. Differing in opin. from a disting. descend. (Hinman in Geneal. Reg. VI. 376,) because he calls him "a Scotch gent. from Ayr. as early as 1653," I ought to offer reasons. H. contrary to the common error, that is of assum. too early a yr. for the arr. of an ancest. on our shore, takes a date that would afford currency [[108]] to a suspicion of his being, one of the melancholy exiles from the of the civ. war. Surely he was here pretty early in 1651, prob. a yr. or two bef. as otherwise he would hardly have gain. Hollard's d. so early. A Scot we may easily believe he was, one of the founders, we kn. of the Charit. Soc. of that nation, wh. with the ever active spirit of nationality begun in Boston 1657, then compos. of twenty-seven mem. of whose names his is tenth. No sufferer in the cause of Charles Stuart can be supposed so early to have acquir. social position and property to contribute to "the box." Se Drake's Boston, 455. A cooper was more likely, two hundred yrs. ago, to have been bred at Glasgow than its neighboring, little vill. of Ayr; and one of those tradesmen, whose motto was "let Glasgow flourish," would hardly be call. gent. of A. Often the name appears Bellantine, sometimes Ballentyre. BALLARD, oft. writ. as sound. Ballatt, JARVIS, Boston 1670, merchant, perhaps not perman. resid. JOHN, Lynn, s. of William the sec. of the same, b. prob. in Eng. had William, b. 1 Oct. 1667; Sarah, early in July 1669; Rebecca, 1 Apr. 1671; Jane, 1 Dec. 1674; John; Priscilla, 20 Dec. 1680; rem. to Andover, there m. sec. w. 16 Nov. 1681, Rebecca Hooper, perhaps d. of William of Reading, had William, 8 Nov. 1683, d. soon; and Dorothy, 30 Jan. 1685. He d. 1715, aged 62, but this, tho. the rec. says it, seems to me twenty yrs. short of the truth. JOSEPH, Andover, br. of the preced. m. 28 Feb. 1666, Elizabeth Phelps, d. perhaps of Edward the first, had Joseph, and two ds. of wh. one, Tabitha, d. 30 Mar. 1687; and the other d. 24 Feb. 1691.

NATHANIEL, Rowley, freem. 1677, was s. of James, and gladly would I find more of him. NICHOLAS, Boston 1655, carpenter, had d. Esther, wh. m. 10 Feb. 1652, Ambrose Dew, but as no more can be found of him, I must conclude, that her f. had brought her from Eng. PETER, Newport, s. of James the first of the same, m. a d. perhaps of John Bliss, at least my corresp. says Major Bliss. RICHARD, Andover 1615, was one of the found. of the ch. there, by w.

RICHARD, Andover, s. of the preced. m. 21 Apr. 1682, Hannah Kimball, had Richard, wh. d. 22 Dec. 1698; and nothing more is kn. to me. ROBERT, Duxbury 1648, br. of the first John, had Robert; and from his will of 18 Feb. 1689, we kn. that other ch. were Francis, Isaac, Rebecca, w. of William Snow, and Abigail Rogers, but wh. was h. of this last is not seen.

BARTHOLOMEW, Boston, cooper 1648--57, in wh. last yr. he d. [[117]] 26 Sept. by nuncup. will giv. to his s. Thomas what little he had, refusing any thing to serv. EDWARD, Malden, m. Mary, d. of James Pemberton, bef. 1660, as in her f.'s will is read, and had childr. as the same docum. proves, but no names can be heard. But I think his bapt. name may have been EDMUND, for Mr. Wyman gives me such a one, with w. Mary, who in his will, pro. 1697, names ch. James; Mary; Sarah Grover, perhaps w. of Simon; Elizabeth Whiting; and Deborah Hovey; beside gr.ch. Edmund, and Elizabeth Chadwick. GEORGE, Exeter 1639, Saco 1652, was a preach. at both, and elsewhere, but, in 1653, was forbid. by the Gen. Ct. to preach or prophesy on penalty of £10 for every offence. He had been that very yr. sworn freem. of Mass. 5 July at Wells, but rem. to Sandwhich 1658, m. Jane, wid. of Anthony Bessey, and there essay. to be a lawyer. Greenleaf in Eccl. Sk.52; Bishop's N. E.

His wid. m. 24 Feb. next John Coombs of Boston, and in 1669, m. John Warren. Barlow's prop. had been so much reduc. by C. that after his d. the Court gave most of his resid. to B.'s only ch. Sarah. THOMAS Charlestown, m. 29 Oct. 1681, Elizabeth Mellins, had ds. Elizabeth Hurd and Mary Moore. Sometimes this name appears in early rec. Barley. Joel, kn. as the author of the Columbiad, an heroic poem, and of Hasty Pudding, an agreeable one, was by Hinman, in his first Ed. p. 14, call. a descend. of that Thomas of Fairfield, tho. on later inq. he found him s. of Samuel, b. at Reading, Conn. 24 Mar. 1754, Y.

Hide, blushing glory, hide Pultova's day. In Duyckinck's Cycloped. I. 391, large extr. in more than twelve pages are giv. from the poetry of B. with impartial election from pleasant, indiffer. or dull pieces, and even his detesta. homage to the guillotine; but much gratitude is due for publica. of the last notes of the dying swan, a few days bef. he d. in Advice to a Raven in Russia, being far the most forcible lines ever composed by him. They seem to be a holy cry of vengeance for the degrading serv. to wh. he was call. BARNABY, JAMES, Plymouth, m. 8 June 1647, Lydia, d. of Robert Bartlett, had, perhaps, James, and Stephen. His wid. m. John Nelson of Middleborough. JAMES, Plymouth, s. prob. of the preced. by w. Joanna had James, b. 1698, and Ambrose, 1706.

Agnes Bent, and the gr.mo. the mo. and a younger ch. d. on the voyage, so that he was some yrs. under care of his uncle John Bent, and was put apprent. to said Blanchard, when Barnes was only ten yrs. old, wh. also bec. his guardian. After d. of Blanchard, May 1654, John Grout of Sudbury was made guardian; and for part of this early hist. see Geneal. Reg. IX. 371. He m. 16 Dec. 1667, perhaps as sec. w. wid. Deborah Dix, but all inq. wh. was her first h. is baffled, neither the diligence of Bond, nor the skill of Dr. Harris being adequate to solve it. Yet the list of ch. accepted, from Barry by Bond, seems hardly to consist with the prior list of ch. she had b. Leonard, John, and William. See Bond, 753. However some may be adm. as Sarah, b. 1669; Richard, 1673; and Abigail, 1683, wh. m. 1700, Peter Bent. He d. 22 Jan. 1708. RICHARD, Marlborough, s. prob. of the preced. m.

Mary, eldest d. of John Andrews, had by her that Thomas, beside Ebenezer, and d. 1688. THOMAS, New Haven 1643, rem. to Middletown, and d. 1693. He had serv. in the Pequot war, 1637, and left s. John; Thomas, b. 26 Aug. 1653; Daniel, 29 Aug. 1659, bapt. 1661, on the same day with Abigail, his sis. b. 16 Mar. 1657, but the day on the rec. of ch. is a false one, 27 June, which was a Thursday; and Maybee, b. 25 June 1663, as the careful town rec. tells, bapt. not, as the careless ch. rec. tells, 20 July of that yr. wh. was on Monday; beside three other ds. of wh. Elizabeth perhaps eldest, was b. 28 May 1650. His w. Mary d. 1676, and his d. Mercy m. 20 Oct. or Dec. 1666, Bartholomew Jacobs. THOMAS, Swanzey 1669, was a promin. man in the Bapt. ch. there, had Elizabeth b. 14 Feb. 1675, and prob. others. THOMAS, Marlborough, the freem. 1673, wh. pray. for a gr. of Ind. ld. bec. his ho. and goods had been burn. by the enemy in Philip's war, may be he wh. came from London 1656, aged 20, in the Speedwell. THOMAS, New Haven, s. of [[123]] Thomas of the same, by w. Abigail had Mary, b. 21 Nov. 1679; Sarah, 17 Feb. 1682; Thomas, 24 July 1684, d. young; Thomas, again, 26 July 1687; Sarah, 1689; Rebecca, 12 Mar. 1691; Abigail, 10 June 1693; Elizabeth 10 Nov. 1695; Deborah, 1 Feb. 1698; Hannah, 31 May 1702; Samuel, 11 Apr. 1705; Nathaniel, 11 Jan. 1707; and Abraham, 1711.

Thomas Harvey, as the Amesbury rec. gives the name; and Rebecca, wh. m. Moses Morrill. Deborah m. 19 Dec. 1663, Samuel Davis. He was one of the first sett. of Amesbury a. 1654. It has been thot. that he is the man in the list of passengers by the Globe from London for Virginia, 1635, and the names of William Brown, and Richard Wells in the same list are seen, both, also, found at Salisbury. But those surnames are so frequent on both sides of the ocean, that the argument must not be pressed too far. Some persons might, at that time, think it easy to go from one part of America to another; but most of those for Virginia were not puritans, and all wh. would come to New Eng. especially from London, easily gained direct, instead of circuitous passage. Of this name, includ. those spelt without e, Farmer, in 1834, count. seven gr. at Yale, five at Harv. and five at other N. E. coll. BARNETT, BARTHOLOMEW, MATTHEW, ROBERT, and others, may seem to be only perverse spell. for Barnard, wh. see. But THOMAS, New London, wh. preach. there 1686 and 7, must be print. with this form of the name, out of regard to that Eccl. Hist. of N. E. call. the Magnalia, III. 4, where this man is insert. in the third classis, tho. with studied carelessness, Mather omits his bapt. name. Caulkins could find no more than this useful designat. for this side of the water; while in vain I search , Palmer's Non. Conf. Mem. III. 150 and 1 for ment. of any but Andrew of Trin. Col. Cambr. and Joshua, s. of Humphrey of Shropsh. wh. were respectable among the cler. confessors. JOHN, Salem, with alias, Barbart, m. 14 Oct. 1661, Mary Bishop, had Mary, b. 30 Oct. 1662; Familiar (if a possib. name), 26 Sept. 1664; and Elizabeth 5 July 1666. BARNEY, JACOB, Salem, freem. 14 May 1634, had John, bapt. 15 Dec. 1639, was rep. 1635, 8, 47, 33, and d. 1673, aged 72. JACOB, Salem, s. of the preced. perhaps b. in Eng. m. 18 Aug. 1657, Hannah Johnson, wh. d. 5 June 1659; and next he m. 26 Apr. 1660, Ann Witt, d. of Jonathan of Lynn or Salem, had Hannah, b. 2 Mar. 1661, prob. d. young; Sarah, 12 Sept. 1662; Abijah,31 Oct. 1663; John, 1 Aug. 1665; [[124]] Jacob, 21 May 1667; Ruth, 27 Sept. 1669; Dorcas, 22 Apr. 1671; Joseph. 9 Mar. 1673; Israel, 17 June 1675; Jonathan, 29 Mar. 1677; Samuel, 10 Feb. 1679; and Hannah, again, 6 Feb. 1681, wh. m. John Cromwell. JACOB, Boston 1668, was one of the found. of the first Bapt. soc. in the town; yet no more is told of him, even in the valu. Hist. of Boston by Mr. Drake. BARNUM, or BARNAM, RICHARD, may perhaps be thot. of Boston, as he was in Moseley's comp. k. in the bloody assault, on Sunday, 19 Dec. 1675, upon the Narraganset fort. RICHARD, Danbury, m. bef. 1696, Mary, d. of the sec. John Hurd of Stratford. Perhaps he was s. of Thomas, wh. m. the mo. of Mary THOMAS, Norwalk 1662, was bef. that at Fairfield, and after at Danbury, had Thomas, b. 9 July 1663; John, 24 Feb. 1678; Hannah, 14 Oct. 1680; and Ebenezer, 19 May 1682; but six more ch. he had, two s. four ds. yet at N. are no more rec. nor I can find the names of these six, or either of them, or of either of two ws. one of wh. outliv. him, wh. d. 1695. His wid. Sarah, wh. had been prob. wid. of the sec. John Hurd, d. 24 Jan. 1718. BARNELL, GEORGE, Boston 1638, a cooper, freem. 10 May 1643, d. 2 Sept. foll. In Geneal. Reg. 11. 383 is an abstr. of his will, made 28 May, pro. 30 Oct. of that yr. giv. ho. and lds. to w. Ann for life, provid. for ch. John, James, and Ann, and two gr.ch. when they shall be 21 yrs. old; but the names of these two seem strangely spelt. "The tools of his trade " lead the diligent compiler, in a note, to explain, that he seems "to have been a mission;" but I follow the ch. rec. at his adm. into that body, 5 Sept. 1641, as prob. the correct designat. and Mr. Drake from town rec. shows it. His d. Ann had m. William Semond. JAMES, Boston, s. of the preced. prob. b. in Eng. was liv. in 1677; but the rec. has no acco. of a fam.

His. wid. m. Daniel Turell. But in the will of gr.f. Colbron, ano. s. James, is rememb. JOHN, Watertown, by w.

JOHN, Boston, s. prob. of John of the same, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 4 Apr. 1677. THOMAS, the Mass. freem. of 1645, was of Braintree; but of him I can see no more, and can feel no doubt that what appears Barrill in print, should be Barrett. WILLIAM, Boston, br. of George of the same, d. 20 Aug. 1639. WILLIAM, Scituate, perhaps s. of John of Boston, tho. Deane calls him s. of William. 1680, Lydia, d. of John Turner, wid. of John James, had William, b. 1683; Lydia, 1684; Mary, 1686; and James, 1687.

May 1665, as the Friends' rec. proves to me, but it certif. no more. HUMPHREY, Concord 1640, freem. 1657, wh. d. Nov. 1662, aged 70, had Thomas, wh. was drown. in the riv. 1660; Humphrey; and John, by Shattuck said to have sett. at Marlborough. His wid. Mary, in her will, of 15 June, pro. 20 Oct. 1663, names s.

JOHN, Taunton, 1643. JOHN, Malden 1653, had Benjamin, b. 18 Dec. of that yr. rem. to Wells, there was made constable 1657, ens. 1660, rep. 1681. Perhaps he was br. of James; and his w.

JOHN, Charlestown, s. of James of the same, was prob. never m. but of slender health, made his will, 1678, in wh. he opens with say. he was 23 yrs. old, not likely to live long, and directs, that mo. brs. and sis. should have his prop.

STEPHEN, wh. serv. as commissary for Conn. in Philip's war, 1675. I have been unable to discov. any thing more a. his resid. or fam. STEPHEN, Charlestown, s. of James the first, m. 14 May 1680, Elizabeth (of an undecyph. or hieroglif. name, whereof the initial is M.) and he d. 1689. THOMAS, Braintree, may prob. be he wh. came at 16 yrs. in the Increase, 1635, was made freem. 1645, tho. the print. list has Barrill, and was of the number of petitnrs. for gr. of ld. at Warwick [[126]] that our Gen. Ct. had confiscat. and to part of wh. they gave 10,000 acres forfeit. by the misbeliev. friends of Gorton; m. 14 Sept. 1655, Frances Woolderson, had Martha, b. 17 Sept. 1656; Mary, 17 Apr. 1658; and perhaps others, and d. at Chelmsford 1668, in his will of 1 July 1662, pro. 6 Aug. foll. names w.

By John Pool of Reading, in his will, Barrett is call. s. in law, wh. seems to prove, that P. had m. the mo. of B.'s first w. Of this name the gr. at Harv. in 1832 were 7, at Dart. 3, and at other N. E. coll. 4. BARRON, DANIEL, Woburn 1653, was perhaps s. of Ellis the first. ELLIS, or ELLIZ, Watertown, freem. 2 June 1641, brot. from Eng. prob. three or four ch. for Bond names the issue in this order, ELLIS; Mary, wh. m. 10 Dec. 1650, Daniel Warren; Susanna, wh. m. 14 Dec. 1653, Stephen Randall; Hannah, wh. m. a. 1659, Simon Coolidge; John; Sarah, b. 4 July 1640; Moses, 1 Mar. 1643; and Peter, a soldier in Moseley's comp. k. by the Ind. Sept. 1675. He had two ws. Grace (thot. to be mo. of all those ch.), and Hannah, wid. of Timothy Hawkins, m. 4 Dec. 1653; was constable 1658, selectman 1668, and d. 30 Oct. 1676. His will made four days bef. pro. 19 Dec. foll. provides for w. for the seven ch. remain. after loss of Peter, and for gr.ch. Elizabeth Barron. ELLIS, Watertown, s. of the preced. m. Hannah, d. of Timothy Hawkins, and Bond gives the date wh. I have taken for m. of her mo. with the f. of this h. tho. he may be right, and possib. mo. and d. f. and s. were m. on one day, yet it seems less prob. He had Ellis, b. 22 Apr. 1655; Hannah, 6 Mar. 1658; Elizabeth 14 Apr. 1660, d. soon; Sarah, 4 Nov. 1662; and perhaps Elizabeth again; rem. to Groton, there had Grace, 29 July 1665; Mehitable, 22 June 1668; Timothy, 18 Apr. 1673; Dorothy, 6 Mar. 1675, perhaps d. young; and Abigail, 14 Nov. 1676. At Lancaster he made his will 31 Dec. 1711, pro. 7 Oct. foll. wh. teaches us the names of hs. for six of his ds. Abigail Houghton, Mehitable Parker, Hannah Cady, w. of James, Elizabeth Philbrick, w. of Ephraim, Sarah Taylor, and Grace Stevens. He had prefer. L. to G. after the equal destruction of both. From Groton he was dliv. in Philip's war, and reappears at W. with w. Lydia. ELLIS, [[127]] Lancaster, s. of the preced. m. 27 May 1679, Mary, d. of Rev. John Sherman, and honr venerable rec. may distort a name is shown here, where the clk. must certif. that Elizabeth Barron jr. m. Mary Sherman; and he had sec. w. Lydia, unless Bond have confus. him with his f. as he suspect. JOHN, Groton, s. of Ellis the first, had John, b. 4 Apr. 1665; Moses, 26 Mar. 1669; Ellis, 4 June 1672; and Elizabeth 28 Sept. 1677; but the name of his w. or date of his d. is not seen. MOSES, br. of the preced. may have liv. at Woburn, at least he m. Mary, eldest d. of Isaac Learned of that place, but prob. d. early. PETER, Marblehead, fisherman, made his will 28 Oct. 1675, going on serv. against Ind. and d. 26 Nov. foll. TIMOTHY, Watertown, a weaver, s. of Ellis the sec. m. 10 Mar. 1698, Rachel, d. of Samuel Jennison of the same, had Joseph, bapt. 30 Oct. foll.; Timothy, 1 July 1700; Peter, b. 26 July 1702; Samuel, Oct. 1704, d. next mo.; and Hannah, 6 Aug. 1709; and his wid. Rachel m. John King. Of Oliver, H. C. 1788, it is said by William Winthrop, in his interleav. catal. that he d. 1809, a physician in the Isle of Man. BARROWS, or BARROW, JAMES, Dover, was tax. 1670, says Mr. Quint, but he tells no more. JOHN, Plymouth, had w. Deborah, s. Robert, Benajah, Joshua, and Ebenezer, beside two ds. when he d. 12 Jan. 1692. Perhaps he had s. John to be a soldier of GallopÕs comp 1690. ROBERT, Plymouth, perhaps br. of the preced. m. 28 Nov. 1666, Ruth, d. of George Bonum, had Eliezur, b. 15 Sept. 1669, wh. d. soon; and no more is kn. of the f. ROBERT, Plymouth, s. of John, m. Lydia Dunham, had Robert, b. 1689; Thankful, 1692; Elisha, 1695; Thomas, 1697; and Lydia, 1699. BARRY, JOHN, New London 1659, may have been only transient, as he is seen only as a witness to deed of ld. BARSHAM, JOHN, Portsmouth, or as Bond thinks, of Exeter, eldest s. of William, by w. Mehitable had Annabel, b. 31 May 1670; Mary, 26 Feb. 1672; Dorothy, 2 Feb. 1674; Sarah, 11 Aug. prob. 1675; and William, 25 Apr. 1678. JOSHUA, Watertown, br. of the preced. outliv. his f. but in Bond's opin. was never m. NATHANIEL, Watertown, br. of the preced. m. 13 Mar. 1679, Elizabeth eldest d. of the first William Bond, was town clk. selectman sev. yrs. and a lieut. in the wretched expedit. of Phips against Quebec, 1690, atter a capt. had no ch. and d. 2 Aug. 1716. His wid. d. 23 Dec. 1729. PHILIP, Deerfield, k. by the Ind. at Bloody brook, with Capt. Lathrop, 18 Sept. 1675, left w. and perhaps ch.

He d. 13 July 1684, in his will of 23 Aug. preced. with codic. of 15 Apr. foll. not nam. w. leads us to infer, that she was a. No doubt he was a man of good public spirit, selectman 1653, [[128]] and fill. other office of import.

John Bright, and next, 12 Dec. 1700, Hannah Parker of Reading; Rebecca m. 14 May 1683, Edward Winship of Cambridge; and Elizabeth m. 5 July 1694, Adam Eve of Boston; yet to so odd a name Bond puts a quere for place, while my suspicion attaches more to the person's spell. BARSTOW, BAIRSTO, or BERESTO, GEORGE, Boston, came from London, in the Truelove, 1635, aged 21, was in 1636, favor. with gr. of ld. at Dedham, but prob. went not thither bef. 1642, ar. co. 1644, no w. or ch. at D. is ment. bef. he rem. to Scituate, there beside some childr. wh. d. early, had Margaret, bapt. 24 Feb. 1650; and George, b.

GEORGE, Roxbury, prob. s. of the preced. by w. Mary had Susanna, b. 2 Nov. 1684; and George, Aug. 1687. Perhaps he rem. to Rehoboth, there had Samuel, 1 May 1705; and d. 6 Apr. 1726. JEREMIAH, Scituate, s. of John of Cambridge, by w. Lydia had John, and eremiah; the last was tak. by the Ind. a few weeks after d. of his f.

The rec. marks him, as French, so that, I presume, he was a Hugenot. ELISHA, Lynn, s. of William of the same, had w. Elizabeth but I kn. no more. HENRY, Newport, was freem. 1655.

THOMAS, Windsor 1641, had come in the Christian 1635, aged 37, and prob. first sat down at Dorchester, tho. not ment. there, and bef. 1653 rem. to Fairfield, d. 1668, leav. w. and ch. but their names are not heard. WILLIAM, Plymouth, came in the Fortune 1621, with w. Elizabeth m. at Leyden, as his sec. w. 13 Aug. 1611, being the earliest m. of any of our pilgrims in that foreign ld. had Sarah, William, and Elizabeth count. in the div. of cattle 1627, but neither of the three is reckon. in the div. of ld. 1623, so that we may believe they were b. in the interval, liv. at Duxbury in 1637, and was rep. 1640, and four yrs. more; in 1652, with Gov. Bradford and others join. in purch. of Dartmouth, rem. to Bridgewater, and d. 1667. Other ch. beside a sec. William, were Nathaniel, Ruth, Jane, and Joseph. His d.

Yet it may be, that the Lynn and the Sandwich William were the same.

BASSOM, or BASSUM, THOMAS, Windsor, had Abigail, b. 7 June 1640; Thomas, 20 Feb. 1642; and Hepzibah, 14 July 1644. WILLIAM, Watertown 1636, as Dr. Francis, 131, gives the name; but Bond is silent, and I conject. that it was abbrev. for Bassumthwaite, wh. d. early, and his wid. had share of lds. with other Watertown sett. at Sudbury 1639. See Barry, Hist. of Framingham, 134. Yet one William Bassom there was a propr. at Wethersfield, perhaps br. of Thomas of Windsor. [[137]] BASTARD, JOSEPH, Fairfield, m. 1685, Hannah, wid. of Esbon Wakeman, was of Bristol, Feb. 1689, hav. one ch. and d. 1697, leav. good est.

JOHN, Haddam, perhaps br. of James of the same, was of Stamford 1669, had John, b. 8 June 1678; and Solomon Feb. 1680. My conject. is confirm. by auth. of D. Williams Patterson. JOHN, New London 1677, had bapt. there John, 4 May 1679; Solomon, 1 Aug. 1680; and Sarah, 27 Aug. 1682; but, no more being, ment. of him, I think he may be the same as the preced. easily rem. from town to town. JOSEPH, Hingham, s. of Clement, b. in Eng. m. 28 Jan. 1658, Esther Hilliard, perhaps d. of Anthony of the same, had Joseph, Caleb, Hannah, Joshua, Aug. 1671; Bathsheba, Clement, 21 Sept. 1676; Eleazer, and perhaps others.

His wid. made her will 14 Mar. 1679, call. hers. 76. We kn. not the names of those ch. he brot. from Eng. but one was prob. Thomas, for he carr. on the business of his f. at B. Eight or more were b. in this country, for Coffin ment. thirteen, yet gives dates of only three, John, b. at S. 4 Mar. 1641; Paul, and Barnabas, tw. 18 Feb. 1643. Others (part b. in Eng.) were Christopher, Ann, Samuel, Jane, Sarah, Abigail, Timothy, Ebenezer, and Elizabeth This last d. 6 July 1652, perhaps young; Ann m. 12 June 1657, Edmund Angier; Jane m. 3 Apr. 1661, Dr. Peter Toppan, and may therefore be supposed to have been b. on our side of the water, while the other side must be thot. birthplace of Ann, as she was sec. w. of Angier. Christopher was of Dover in 1662; Paul was a glazier, and Timothy a tailor, both freem. 1673, at Boston, and both prob. certain one of them interest. in the tannery; and of Samuel it is said that he was, as is min. in Eng. and infer. that he never came back to this ld. if he was, as is prob. b. here. NICHOLAS, Newbury, perhaps br. of the preced. came in the James from Southampton, with w.

Battle was an overseer, most of the ch. are ment. Mary m. 20 Mar. 1677, John Bryant; and Sarah m. 23 Oct. 1679, Silas Titus. Very improb. seems to me the recent tradit. that he came to N.

JOHN, Salem, m. 25 Nov. 1667, Abigail Whitney (but, of so common a surname, it is diffic. to find the f. and Essex Inst. Hist. Coll.

Feb. 1640, bapt. 1 Sept. 1644, wh. m. 1658, John Bull. But the rec. says, also, that by the same maid. name she m. 1660, Thomas Buttolph; and this is true, and the other rec. no doubt a. mistake. NICHOLAS, Boston, prob. s. of the preced. was gunner at the castle 1674-6, perhaps later, and d. 10 Jan. 1692. RICHARD, Hingham, came 1638, in the Diligent from old Hingham, employ. by Francis James, says Lincoln in Centen. Addr. 41. THOMAS, Fairfield 1654, had w.

Lydia had John, b. 1642; James, 1650; Thomas, 1653; and Samuel, 1658; beside Damaris, w. of Thomas Leaver; and Lydia, w. of .......Platt, but whether of Abel, or James, or John, or Jonas, or Jonathan, or Samuel, my inquiries do not ascertain.

We kn. also, that he was succeed. by the unfortun. George Burrows. By Sprague, Ann. of the Amer. Pulpit, I. 186, Bailey's d. is mark. for 1707, and Coffin, 351, more precise, 17 Jan. at Roxbury. I venture a conject. that he is the one ord. at Weymouth, 26 Sept. 1703, as told in 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. IX. 195; yet the rec. of d. at Roxbury of James Bailey calls him Esqr. JOHN, Salisbury, a weaver from Chippenham, Co. Wilts, came, in the Angel Gabriel, from Bristol, Apr. 1635, and was cast away at Pemaquid, in the great storm of 15 Aug. He rem. 1650 to Newbury (where prob. [[143]] he had been resid. bef. settlem. of S.), and d. 2 Nov. of next yr.

He rem. to Kennebunk, there was k. by the Ind. Oct. 1723. NICHOLAS, Saco 1663, br. of Jonas, had perhaps been of New Haven 1644, and may have been br. of Samuel at New Haven in the same yr. See Bailey. ROBERT, came from London in the Hopewell, Capt. Babb, in the autumn of 1635, aged 23; and ano.

SAMUEL, Windsor, prob. s. of William, m. 18 May 1693, Margaret Chapman, had Hannah, b. 2 Apr. 1698; Samuel, 6 June 1704; and his w. d. 12 Aug. 1715, unless this Margaret were a d. not mark. on rec.

PHILIP, Salem, had gr. of ld. 1637. WILLIAM, Salem 1668; but in Ed. 2 of his Ann. Mr. Felt makes the name Beere; and it has been read Beebe. But, as Beanes, he claim. as an heir of Robert Buffum, perhaps by m. of his d. BEARD, AARON, Pemaquid, or neighb. 1674, sw. fidel. to Mass. JAMES, Milford 1642, came with his mo. Martha, tw. brs. and three sis. his f. dying on the voyage, as the fam. tradit. tells, wh. adds, that he was eldest ch. and that it adds no more should not discourage large inq. His inv. was tak. 27 Oct. 1681. One of his sis. was w. of Nicholas Camp; ano. Martha, m. 20 Dec. 1649, John Streame. JEREMY, Milford, br. of the preced. is altogether barren of any informat. in fam. tradit. but of *JOHN, Milford, the other br. of the preced. that source of intellig. is more bountif. He was a man of import., rep. 1677, and oft. aft. had two ws. but wh. as first may need investigat. One, perhaps the earlier, had been by name of Hannah Hawley m. to John Ufford, or Offit, and at her desire divorc. By her he had sev. ch. and by Abigail, d. of Richard Hollingworth, perhaps the sec. had prob. no ch. was capt. in one of the expedit. against the Ind. 1675. His est. was distrib. 18 Nov. 1690, to w. Ann, ch. John, James, Joseph, Samuel, Mary, w. of Timothy Baldwin, and Ann; and the wid. d. 1698. The list of proprs. 1713 at M. has sev. of this name wh. were descend. of him or his brs.

Yet it may be that this Thomas was s. of William. THOMAS, Ipswich, freem., perhaps, of Boston, 1675, a mariner. WILLIAM, Dover 1640, had Joseph, b. 1655, was "the good old man" k. by the Ind. at Durham 1675. See Hubbard's Ind. Wars, and Young's Chron. 186. BEARDING. See Barding. [[149]] BEARSE, BEARCE, or BIERCE, AUSTIN, or AUGUSTINE, Barnstable, came in the Confidence 1638, aged 20, from Southampton, and join. Lothrop's ch. in Apr. 1643, had Mary, b. 1640; Martha, 1642; both bapt. 7 May 1643; Pricilla, 10 Mar. 1644; Sarah, 29 Mar. 1646; Abigail, 19 Dec. 1647; Hannah, 18 Nov. 1649; Joseph, 20 Jan. 1652; Esther, 2 Oct. 1653; Lydia, late in Sept. 1655; Rebecca, 26 Sept. 1657; and James, late in July 1660. Of this sec. s. as no more is heard, it is suppos. that he d. young; but for the nine ds. we know only three that m., Sarah, in Aug. 1667 to John Hamlin; Abigail, 12 Apr. 1670 to Allen Nichols; and Rebecca, 17 Feb. 1671 to William Hunter. JOSEPH, Barnstable, s. of the preced. m. 3 Dec. 1675, Martha, d. of Richard Taylor, wh. d. 27 Jan. 1728, aged 76, had Mary, b. 16 Aug. 1677; Joseph, 21 Feb. 1680; Benjamin, 21 June 1682; Priscilla, 31 Dec. 1683, d. at 3 mos.; Ebenezer 20 Jan. 1685; John, 8 May 1687; these four s. were bapt. 16 Dec. 1688; Josiah, 10 Mar. 1690, bapt. 10 Apr. 1691; and James, b. 3 Oct. 1692. BEARSLEY, BEARDSLEY, BERDSLEY, or BERSLEY (sound BARESLEY), DANIEL, Stratford 1675, s. of William of the same, d. 1730, aged 85. JOHN Stratford 1668, br. of the preced. JOSEPH, Stratford, br. of the preced. freem. 1669, had Joseph, b. 1666; John, 1 Nov. 1668; Hannah, 1671; and perhaps others. SAMUEL, Stratford, br. of the preced. freem. 1669, had Abigail, b.

THOMAS, Fairfield, perhaps br. of William. d. 1656. THOMAS, Stratford, s. of Thomas of Milford, d. 1668. WILLIAM, Stratford, a mason, came 1635, in the Planter from London, aged 30, with w. Mary, 26, and ch. Mary 4; John, 2; and Joseph, 6 mos. He was freem. in Mass. 7 Dec. 1636, but dwell, in wh. town is unkn. was one of the orig. proprs. of S. 1640, and there had Daniel, b. 1644; beside Samuel wh. d. 1706; prob. Sarah, wh. m. 1668, Obadiah Dickinson of Hatfield, and one or more other ds. was rep. 1645, and often after, and d. 1661. His will of 28 Sept. 1660, names w. and four s., Daniel, John, Joseph, and Samuel; gives to ds. m. £10 ea. and a large sum to be distrib. by the w. to other ch. prob. younger, and unm. of wh. were certain. William, and Thomas. Of the grs. at Yale, in 1828, were seven Beardsleys. BEAUCHAMP, or BEACHUM, EDWARD, Salem 1637, join. with the ch. 29 Dec. 1639, and his w. Mary join. the foll. yr., was freem. 28 Feb. 1643, had Samuel, bapt. 31 Oct. 1641, wh. d. 20 Nov. 1662; Mary, 10 Sept. 1643, d. young; Mary, again, 27 June 1647, d.

JOHN, Boston, leather-dresser, a Huguenot, brot. prob. most of his ch. to N. E. but it is not kn. when or where he land. first. By w. Marguerite, we see in rec. of B. that he had here Catharine, b. 10 June 1687; and Peter, 17 Apr. 1702, perhaps youngest of [[150]] the stock, if not even the sole of N. E. b. Had the rec. of that French ch. been preserv. we should less often be driv. to conject. In the print. list of taxab. inhab. of B. 1695, publ. by Dearborn in his Boston Notions, the French names are frequent. spel. strangely; yet among them may our Huguenot leather-dress. be misrepresent. as John Bashoon. He bot. of Daille, their first min. his ho. in what is now Washington str. and left by his will £10 to the ch.

Isaac; Mary Ann m. a Lawrence, and her s. John bec. Treasr. of Conn. Margaret m. a Chenevard, and her descend. were long at H. and at the time of the d. of her f. Susanna was unm. ROBERT, Ipswich, writ. Beacham, as always pronounc. in Eng. in 1651 had w. Isabel, rem. 1654, prob. to Norwalk, and 1664 to Fairfield, there was liv. 1670, with w. Elizabeth wh. had perhaps got back to I. where wid. Elizabeth B. was bur. 18 Jan. 1687. BEAUMONT, or BEMENT, THOMAS, New Haven 1639, m. the wid. of Eleazer Stent, mo. of Eleazer and Elizabeth S. but had no ch. by her, and d. 1686. BECK, ALEXANDER, Boston, freem. 3 Sept. 1634, by w. Mary, wh. d. 2 May 1639, had prob. no ch. but he soon m. Elizabeth Hinds of Roxbury, had Ephraim, and Deliverance, tw. b. 1, bapt. 7 June 1640; Strange, bapt. 5 June 1642, a. 5 days old; tho. the unworthy copy of town rec. of births has the monstrous assert. of these three, as b. at once; and Manasseh, b. 8, bapt. 12 Oct. 1645. HENRY, Dover, came in the Blessing, 1635, aged 18, emb. at London late in July, as I saw in the rec. of London custom ho. for that yr. so far more prob. than the tradit. giv. by Coffin in Geneal. Reg. XI. 256, of his com. the same yr. in the Angel Gabriel, wreck. at Pemaquid the mid. of Aug. The Blessing did not reach Boston bef. Oct. Part of the same story is, that he was from Hertfordsh. wh. is so near to London, whence sixteen ships brought passeng. to Boston, that we can never believe he would have gone to the other side of the kingdom, for the voyage of the Angel Gabriel, begin. at Bristol, 22 June. He m. Ann Frost, had Joshua; Thomas, b. a 1657; Caleb; and Henry; beside d. Mary, wh. m. a White. Coffin adds, that he liv. to be 110; and how gr. this would appear to be exag. we may better judge, when the time of his d. is ascertain. MANASSEH, Boston, s. of Alexander, was freem. 1672, and this is all I kn. of him. THOMAS, Dover, prob. s. of Henry, in Coffin's rep., m. Mary Frost, had eight ch. of wh. he names Thomas, Joshua, Abigail, Henry, Mary, [[151]] Samuel, and Hannah; and he d. 7 Nov. 1734, aged 77. His wid. Mary d. 25 Feb. 1753, aged 94. BECKET, JOHN, Salem, shipwright, ment. first in 1655, d. 26 Nov. 1683, aged a. 57, leav. wid. Margaret, then 56 yrs. old, ch. William, Mary, Sarah, John, and Hannah the youngest. His wid. m. Philip Cromwell, and d. at ninety yrs. Mary m. 20 July 1675, Daniel Webb. JOHN, Salem, s. of the preced. m. 26 Sept. 1711, Susanna Mason, had Mary, b. 25 July 1712. STEPHEN, Roxbury, came from Ipswich in the Francis, 1634, aged 11 yrs. only, and under the charge of Richard Pepper, wh. after a few yrs. at R. rem. to Conn. prob. for that Col. was resid. of his apprent. in 1649. See Beckwith. WILLIAM, Salem, s. of John the first, by w. Hannah had John, b. 10 Aug. 1684; Hannah, 17 July 1685; and Margaret, 14 May 1688. BECKFORD, or BICKFORD (more common in early days), GEORGE, had, in 1666, w. Christian, and serv. Hugh Hancock, as Coffin tells in Geneal. Reg. VI. 243; but of what settlem. he was, we must trust to conject. for Dover. His wid. took admin. at Marblehead in June 1678. JOHN, Dover 1647, in 1669 was of that part call. Oyster riv. now Durham, freem. of Mass. 1671, had s. John, and Joseph. JOHN, DOVER, s. of the preced. by w. Temperance, d. of William Furber of the same, had Thomas, b. 1660; Hannah, 5 Nov. 1665; and Benjamin, 20 Oct. 1672. He or s. John m. Elizabeth d. of Jeremy Tibbets of the same, but confus. easily aris. betw. fam. connex. of sec. and third John. SAMUEL, Salisbury, m. a d. of Edward Cottle, and rem. to Nantucket, where he purchas. 12 Nov. 1678, a half sh., had Elizabeth b. 16 Feb. 1672; and Deborah, 5 Feb. 1674. THOMAS, Dover, or Durham, br. of the sec. John, m. Bridget, d. of William Furber. He was in gr. danger at the assault by the Ind. 18 July 1694, saved by skill and courage, as may be read in the Magn. VII. appx. art. 20; or Farmer's Belkn. I. 140. BECKLEY, JOHN, Hartford, prob. s. of Richard, had Hannah, wh. m. 10 Sept. 1689, Robert Webster. RICHARD, New Haven 1639, rem. to Wethersfield bef. 1668, had prob. two ws. of wh. the latter was a d. of John Deming, ch. Sarah, perhaps b. in Eng. m. 21 Oct. 1657, John Church of Hartford; John, b. 6 Mar. 1642; Mary, bapt. 12 Sept. 1647; Benjamin, 27 Jan. bapt. 10 Mar. 1650; Nathaniel, b. 13 oct. 1652, bapt. 15 Oct. 1653; and Hannah, 14 Oct. 1656; and d. 5 Aug. 1690 at W. BECKWITH, JOSEPH, Lyme, s. of Matthew, by w. Susanna had Sarah, b. 14 Apr. 1677; and Joseph, 15 Apr. 1679. MATTHEW, New London 1652, Hartford 1658, then a freem., and had first liv. there 1639, rem. to Branford, there in 1668 was one of the founders of ch., thence to Lyme, there d. 21 Oct. 1680, aged a. 70, by fall in a dark night down a ledge of rocks. See Rev. Mr. Bradstreet's journal in Geneal. Reg. IX. 50. He had two ds. beside s. Matthew, John, and Joseph. His wid. m. Samuel Buckland; and of the ds. one m. Benjamin Grant; the other, Robert [[152]] Gerard; but the name of either is not seen. MATTHEW, Lyme, s. of the preced. by w. Elizabeth had Matthew, John, and James, the last b. 1 June 1671, and all were bapt. 10 Sept. foll. Jonah, b. 27 Dec. 1673; Prudence, 22 Aug. 1676; Elizabeth 4 Feb. 1679; Ruth, 14 Mar. 1681; and Sarah Dec. 1684. A sec. w. Elizabeth wid. of Peter Pratt, wh. she m. after divorce from John Rogers, was d. of Matthew Griswold. Her he m. 1691, had a d. Griswold; and he d. 4 June 1727, in his will nam. all the ch. exc. Sarah, perhaps dec. and his wid. d. next mo. NATHANIEL, Lyme, s. perhaps of Matthew the first, there in 1675, had Nathaniel, b. 28 May 1679 and was liv. 1690. Of descend. some are still at New London, Miss Caulkins says, and often call. Becket; while at Branford it appears Bickatt. STEPHEN, Norwalk 1654, rem. soon, but came back after 1655. Perhaps he was that passeng. in the Francis, ment. under Becket. THOMAS, Roxbury 1650, rem. perhaps to Fairfield, and left his w. wh. obtain. divorce 1655. BEDELL, BEDLE, or BEEDLE, ROBERT, New London 1648, had, perhaps, been at Wethersfield, where Hinman, 164, ranks him among first sett. there prob. had Robert, b. 1642; and he rem. 1650, to Newbury, I presume. ROBERT, Salisbury, s. prob. of the preced. by w. Martha had Mary, b. 31 July 1666; rem. to Newbury, and had Thomas, 30 Apr. 1668; Elizabeth 22 Nov. 1669; Judith, 29 Mar. 1671, d. at 2 yrs. Robert. Jan. 1675; Judith, again, 8 Mar. 1676, d. next yr.; and John, 23 Apr. 1678. Coffin, in his Hist. says Hannah, perhaps his w. d. 15 Nov. 1678. BEDFORD, NATHAN, Scarborough, was constable 1665, kept the inn 1675, and d. 1681 by drown. In Southgate's Hist. the strange wildness of a story, how he was murder. by the venerab. Joshua Scottow, may be read. He left wid. Ann. BEDIENT, MORGAN, Hadley, came with his mo. Mary from Staines, near London, to rec. the est. devis. by her br. John Barnard, and d. bef. reach. his majority. THOMAS, Hadley, younger br. of the preced. b. 1654, a co-devisee, came with his mo., rem. to Fairfield, and d. a. 1698. BEDURTHA, BEDORTHA, or BODURTHA, JOHN, Springfield, s. of Rice, as drown. 18 Mar. 1683, with his f. and Lydia, w. of his br. Joseph, and Mercy, d. of his br. Samuel. JOSEPH, Springfield, br. of the preced. had three ws. and eleven ch. but details are not kn. to me, tho. in Geneal. Reg. XII. 176, we almost discov. one of the ws. Rice, Reice, Reise, or ROISE (as if the surname were not suffic. various in spel.), Springfield, m. 1646, Blanch Lewis, had Joseph, b. 1649; Samuel, 1651; John, 1654; beside two younger ch. and he was drown. with s. John. SAMUEL, Springfield, s. of the preced. had two ws. of wh. one was Mary, wid. of Able Leonard, wh. he m. July 1691, and he had fourteen ch. but I kn. nothing of them, only that he d. 1728. [[153]] BEDWELL, SAMUEL, Boston, m. 2 Feb. 1654 Mary Hodgkinson, perhaps had that SAMUEL, of Middletown, wh. d. Apr. 1715, or may be the same. BEEBE, or BEEBY, JAMES, Hadley, m. 24 Oct. 1667, Mary, d. of Robert Boltwood, had Mary, b. 18 Aug. 1668, d. young; James, 9 Dec. 1669, d. young; Rebecca, 8 Dec. 1670; Samuel, 26 June 1672; and Mary, again, 1675. Perhaps, as this fam. soon rem. it may, in some branches, be found Bibby. James, Stratford, m. 19 Dec. 1679, Sarah, d. of the first Thomas Benedict, had Sarah, b. 13 Nov. 1680; and James; rem. to Norwalk, thence to Danbury, and may be the same as the foregoing. JOHN, New London 1651, m. Abigail, d. of James York of Stonington, had John, Benjamin, and Rebecca; was twenty yrs. serj. and in 1690 lieut., liv. to gr. age, d. a. 1708. His wid. d. 9 Mar. 1725, aged 86. Rebecca m. Richard Shaw of Easthampton, L. I. NaTHANIEL, New London, youngest br. of the preced. rem. 1670, or earlier, to Stonington, had prob. no ch. and d. 17 Dec. 1724, aged 93. SAMUEL, New London, br. of the preced. m. Agnes, d. of William Keeny, had also sec. w. Mary. His ch. were Samuel, William, Nathaniel, Thomas, Jonathan, Agnes, Ann, Susanna, and Mary; but I am unable to div. them betw. the ws. yet doubt not, that nearly all were by the first. He own. the chief part of Plumb Isl. and rem. to it, d. 1712, aged 91, leav. wid. Of the ds., Agnes m. John Daniels ; Ann m. Thomas Crocker; Susanna m. Aaron Fountain; and Mary m. Richard Tozer. THOMAS, New London 1651, br. of the preced. m. Milicent, wid. first of William Southmayd, and next of William Ash, d. of William Addis, had only s. Thomas, and ds. Hannah, wh. m. 1697, John Hawke; Milicent, wh. m. Nicholas Darrow; and Rebecca, wh. m. Nathaniel Holt; and he d. 1699. His s. wh. never m. d. 1727. BEECHER, or BEACHER, ISAAC, New Haven, had Isaac, b. 18 Aug. 1650; Samuel, 17 Oct. 1652; and Eleazer, 8 Apr. 1655. Perhaps he had other ch. John and Joseph. His mo. Hannah, a wid. in her will, 1657, ment. two ch., this Isaac. and William Potter, s. of her former h. in Eng. In 1685 Isaac sen. Isaac jun. and Eleazer were proprs. His will was of 26 Sept. 1689; and inv. of 28 Aug. foll. ISAAC, New Haven, s. perhaps eldest of the preced. by w. Joanna had Isaac, b. 20 Oct. 1680; Ebenezer, 24 Feb. 1683; Joanna, and Hannah, prob. tw. bapt. 1685; John, 1689; Abigail, and Abiah, tw. b. 25 Sept. 1693; and Jemima, 12 Dec. 1696; and he d. 1708. JOHN, New Haven, br. of the preced. by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 9 Oct. 1671; Mary, 23 Feb. 1673; Elizabeth; Joanna, 21 July 1677; Sarah; Jemima, 11 Feb. 1681; Joseph, 13 Feb. 1684; and Ebenezer, 12 Apr. 1686; and d. 1712. THOMAS, Charlestown 1630, freem. 6 Nov. 1632, had been engage. as capt. of the Talbot, 1629, in bring. passeng. to our country, and next yr. with Winthrop's fleet, when his w. Christian, wh. had been w. of Thomas Copper of Wapping, near London (wh. left her a freehold est. at Harwich), came with him, and was of the first ten mem. of the ch. He was one of the earliest selectmen of the town, and at the first gen. ct. 14 May 1634, when repr. came, he was one (all former gen. ct. being inclus. of every freem. of the Col.), and serv. sev. foll. sessions, made capt. of the castle 1635, and d. 1637. His inv. 29 July of this yr. made by Ralph Sprague, Abram Palmer, and Thomas [[154]] Ewer, shows £405.16s. His wid. became sec. w. of Nicholas Easton, and d. 20 Feb. 1665. No ch. of B. is seen on any rec. tho. Frothingham, 80, thinks Dr. Lyman Beecher, Y. C. 1797, a descend. prob. on recent suggest. But the progenit. of this disting. fam. was Isaac. BEEDER, perhaps BEEDE, THOMAS, Newport 1639. BEEFORD, RICHARD, Gloucester 1643, by w. Mary had John, b. 26 Oct.

He m. 10 Dec. 1680, Rebecca, d. of Samuel Ebborne, had Thomas, b. 26 Aug. 1681; and George, 10 June 1684.Of this name Dart. counts eight as her gr. of wh. the first, Samuel, of Chester, the gov. was gr.s. of John, early an inhab. of Londonderry, and so may well be thought of that noble col. of Scotch-Irish, wh. hardly more than half so many as the sad gleanings of the fields of Dunbar and Worcester, transplant. hither seventy years earlier, prob. outnumber by fifty-fold, if not a hundred, the political exiles' progeny. BELLAMY, JOHN, New Haven 1614, merch. from London, had w. but no ch. here bef his embarka. Jan. 1646, with Capt. Lamberton, on that sad voyage to London, from N. H. wherein so many of the flower of the Col. were lost. Against that tradit. nothing can be alleg. unless it be discredit. so far as B. is implicat. in it, by non-appear. of his name on any rec. at N. H. MATTHEW, New Haven, was sch. master at Stamford 1658, but Cothren thinks he was first at Fairfield, bot. and sold ld. at S. up to 1670, but m. at N. M. 1671, Bethia, d. of Timothy Ford, had Matthew, b. a. 1672; Bethia, 3 Aug,. 1673, d. soon; Elizabeth Nov. 1674, d. soon; and Mary, 1675, wh. m. 28 Jan. 1703, Elijah How; exercis. his skill at Guilford and Killingworth, and in 1675 had gr. of ld. at Saybrook, bot. ho. there next yr. wh. he sold in 1677. His w. d. in 1687, and perhaps he, too, was d. or absent in parts unkn. for he had not been ment. several yrs. bef. 1689 when his childr. were put under gaurdiansh. MATTHEW, Wallingford S. prob. of the preced. tho. by tradit. declar. to be s. and posthum. of a suppositit. John, and had two ws. and ten or eleven ch. Part of this may be true, as that his first w. was Sarah, sis. [[161]] of Richard Wood of W. and her fifth ch. was Joseph, b. 20 Feb. 1719, of Y. C. 1735, a very disting. theolog. among the systemat. rulers of opin. BELLEW, or BELLOU, WILLIAM, Dover 1644. BELLFLOWER, BENJAMIN, Reading, a quaker, wh. after sent. of banish. for his opin. renounc. it, as in Hutch. I. 201, 2, is told. He had m. 3 Feb. 1659, w. Abigail, and d. 24 Feb. 1661, and next mo. inv. of small amt. was render. at Salem. HENRY, Reading, 1656, had Hannah, b. 17 Jan. 1657; and Deliverance, 2 May 1662. BELLAMONT, RICHARD, the Earl of, Gov. of Mass. appoint. by the crown, as success. to Sir William Phips, was the only peer ever thus deput. came to Mass. from New York, 26 May 1699, and went back; next yr. BELLINGHAM, RICHARD, Boston, had been recorder of old Boston from 1625 to 1633, when he partook largely of the desire to migr. and with w. and s. Samuel came, tho. in what ship is not found, in 1634, and was chos. a selectman in Aug. after join. the ch. with his w. on 3 of that mo. and bef. long a rep. made in 1635, dept. gov. and twelve times after, some yrs. was treasr. of the Col. and gov. in 1641, and sev. times after, in all ten yrs. of wh. from 1665 to 72 inclus. beside being always an Assist. maj. gen. in 1664, and d. 7 Dec. 1672, the last surv. of the patentees in the Chart. aged above 80 yrs. says the Cambridge Almanac of next yr. He rem. to Ipswich, and after to Rowley, hav. est. and near friends at each place; but liv. not long at either. For sec. w. he m. 1641, Penelope, the young sis. of Herbert Pelham, Esq. wh. had embark. 15 May 1635, aged 16, in the Susan and Ellen. Beside the impropr. of this match, in point of age, it was unduly solemniz. as in Winthrop Hist. is told. By her he had Hannah, bapt. 14 Aug. 1642; John, H. C. 1661, wh. next yr. was agent for his f. at Rowley in care of ld. that had been his uncle William's; James, b. 3, bapt. 10 May 1646; and Grace, wh. d. 3 Sept. 1654; and these are all of wh. we find notice. His wid. liv. near 30 yrs. d. 28 May 1702. For her and s. Samuel he provid. in his will, that was however so perversely drawn, as to be set aside by the Gen. Ct. Of his weakness as ch. magistr. other strange instances are relat. by the early hist. of N. E. but the most to be regrett. was his enmity, at a later day, to the foundat. of the O. S. or 3d ch. of Boston, that ceas. only with his life. Gov. Coddington of R. I. wh. had been, in their day of small things, much assoc. with B. in both Bostons, almost exults at his completion of the measure of his iniquity in distraction, closing his "Demonstration of True Love"in this emphatic style: "The hand of the Lord cuts him off, not giving him repentance to life, that other sons of Belial of his persecuting, spirit might be warned, not to put the evil day far from them." Without sympathy in the triumph of Gov. C. it is grateful to me to remark, that the unbrok. reign of dismal bigotry from 1649 to 1672 inclus. under Dudley, Endicot, and Bellingham, hard, harder, hardest, betw. the mild wisdom of Winthrop and the tolerant dignity [[162]] of Leverett, came to its end with that last of the triumvirs of Mass. SAMUEL, Boston, s. of the preced. was of the earliest class of H. C. 1642, and at Rowley next yr. but soon went to Europe, stud. at Leyden, and there took his degr. of M. D. liv. most of his days in or near London; had only ch. Elizabeth and her by first w. In Apr. 1695 he m. at L. wid. Elizabeth Savage, wh. is unkn. to me; and he sent her over to manage his affairs in this country. In Boston she made her will, Nov. 1697 in wh. she bestow. munificently to the coll. to ministers, and friends here, but gave back chief est. to her h. She sail. for Eng. 8 Nov. and was lost by shipwreck on the coast of Ireland 3 Feb. foll.

BELLOWS, BENJAMIN, Lancaster, youngest ch. of John, b. prob. 1678 or 9 at Marlborough, after the ret. of the exiles from a safer residence at Concord, m. 1704, Dorcas, wid. of Henry Willard of Lancaster, had Mary, b. 1707; Judith, 1708; Joanna, 1710; and Benjamin, 26 May 1712. The name of his youngest s. is perpet. in the Bellows Falls of Conn. riv. where he found. the beautif. town of Walpole. JOHN, Concord 1645, had come in the Hopewell, Capt. Bundock, from London, Apr. 1635, aged 12, m. 9 May 1655, Mary Wood of Marlborough, perhaps d. of his fellow-passeng. John W. had Mary, b. 22 Apr. 1656; Samuel, 22 Jan. 1658, d. young; Abigail, 6 May 1661; Daniel; and Benjamin. He rem. to M. Such was the statement in Farmer, as orig. print. with slight addit. from rec. by me; and in F.'s interleav. copy no correction or enlargement is found. Yet the variance of acco. in Ward and Barry is so material, that tho. the two may be only one authority, it must be giv. They say, the ch. were Isaac, b. 13 Sept. 1663, wh. d. a. 1746; John, 13 May 1666; Thomas, 7 Sept. 1668; Eliezur, 13 Apr. 1671; Daniel, 15 Mar. 1673, d. young; and Nathaniel, 3 Apr. 1676, b. at Concord, no doubt caused by the exposure of M. in Philip's war. The f. d. 10 Jan. 1684, as erron. is said, for his will was pro. bef. that date, and Ward tells, that his wid. Mary d. 1707. Barry adds, that Eliezur by w. Esther had Thomas, b. 30 Sept. 1693; and that the descend. of John have been num. in Malborough and Southborough. John's will, made 19 June 1683, pro. 2 Oct. foll. names w. five s. and two ds. omit. the s. Benjamin, wh. had been adopt. by a rich man; so that we may be sure the enumerat. of Farmer was defect.

Perhaps he rem. to New London, where Miss Caulkins shows a William, in 1667, fined for neglect of train. and very soon after to Stonington, there had William, Joseph, Mary, and Lydia, bapt. 1 Sept. 1672. Of these Mary d. young, and Joseph, prob. bef. his f. Ano. Mary he brot. to bapt. 14 Mar. 1675. He d. 16 Mar. 1713, in his will ment. as his ch.

Plausib. conject. may be rais. that he went back to R. where it appears by the ch. rec. "goodw. Birchard was bur. 24 Mar. 1655," and as the town rec. is silent, it would be thot. that she was on a visit to her old friends, and it might be suggest. that they liv. within the edge of Dorchester, where the rec. gives dec. of one Thomas B. 3 Oct. 1637.

He liv. at Winisemit, or Rumney marsh, now Chelsea, was freem. 1644, but excommun. in July 1646, restor. soon after, and sober eno. to be made constable 1655, rem. to Billerica, there d. 7 July 1666.

BIRDEN, JOHN, a gr. of Harv. Coll. 1647, went to Eng. to exercise his faculties, indicat. by Italic types, and that is all that is kn. of him. BIRDLEY, GILES, Ipswich 1648, had w. Elizabeth and ch.

BIRGE, DANIEL, Windsor, s. of Richard, m. 5 Nov. 1668, Deborah, d. of Thomas Holcomb, had Elizabeth b. 25 Apr. 1670; d. young; Deborah 26 Nov. 1671; Elizabeth again, 3 Feb. 1675; Mary, 25 Dec. 1677; Daniel, 16 Sept. 1680; and Abigail, June 1685.

RICHARD, Windsor 1636, so that we may judge he had been of Dorchester, m. 5 Oct 1641, Elizabeth only d. of William Gaylord, had Daniel, b. 24 Nov. 1644; Elizabeth 28 July 1646, d. soon; Jeremy, 6 May 1648, wh. was k. 22 Oct. 1668, by fall of a tree; John, 14 Jan. 1650; and Joseph, 2 Nov. 1651, in wh. yr. the f. d. The wid. m. 22 Apr. 1653, Thomas Hoskins. But the valua. Hist. of V. 538, strange. makes this Richard. to be Daniel. BISBEE, or BISBY. See Besbedge. BISCOE. See Briscoe. BISCON, ISAAC, Boston, no doubt a Huguenot from France, came 1690, with w. and was adm. a resid. 1 Feb. 1691. I kn. no more. BISHOP, EDWARD, Salem 1639, had there bapt. Hannah, 12 Apr. 1646; Edward, 23 Apr. 1648; and Mary, 12 Oct. 1651; and was one [[184]] of the found. of the ch. 1667, at Beverly. Those ch. were, prob. all by w. Hannah, and her d. Hannah m. William Raymond. His sec. w. was Bridget Oliver.--also, aft. Sarah add Wild, d. of William of Ipswich. With his w. Sarah he was imprison. on charge of witchcraft, Apr. 1692, yet, happily, they were not too old to escape by break. gaol, for wh. their prop. was seiz. and by s. Samuel redeem. He went to Rehoboth, where no witchcr. was thot. of. Felt calls the name Edmund once, but in three places after gives it as here. One Bridget B. w. of his f. no doubt, of the same town had been charg. with the same damnable offence in 1680; when the great adversary was foil. but he easily prevail. with the judges, in June 1692, when the poor woman was so much more infirm, to consent to her being hanged. HENRY, Newport 1639. HENRY, New Haven, took o. of fidel. 1644, and was farmer for Rev. John Davenport. His w. Patience d. 24 July 1655; and his s. John d. 1661, unm.

His wid. d. 25 Oct. 1703. All the eleven ch. are nam. in his will. Some of the days giv. for bapt. in Geneal. Reg. we kn. are wrong, bec. they were not Sundays, and exc. on this day no such cerem. could be perform. as by Davenport hims. we may be taught, in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 61. In those cases the nearest first day of the week is substitut. by me. See Trumbull, I. 336. Hannah m. 12 Aug. 1669, John Morris; Elizabeth m. 12 Sept. 1677, Eleazer Giles, as his sec. w.

JOHN, Newbury, a carpenter, m.

J. from wh. He was the first rep. in the Assemb. 1668, under Gov. Carteret a counsel. 1672, and d. 1684. His s. John, of Rahway, was of Gov. Hamilton's counc. 1693. See Whitehead's E. Jersey, 42, 52, 77, and 134. JOHN, Boston 1644, [[185]] was chos. min. at Stamford, whither he went on foot, had w. Rebecca, and ch. Stephen, Joseph, Ebenezer, Benjamin, beside one, perhaps nam. Whiting, that d. early, all ment. in his will. For sec. w. he had Joanna, d. of Capt. Thomas Willet, wid. of Rev. Peter Prudden of Milford. His will, made 16 Nov. 1694, pro. 12 Mar. foll. instructs us as to these ws. and his ch. wh. were all by the first. As early as 1610 he had been at Taunton. He preach. near 50 yrs. wrote a Latin epit. on Richard Mather (whence a presumpt. arises, that he was from Dorchester), wh. may be read in the Magnalia of the gr.s. cap. 20 of III. or p. 131. But the dignity of the subject, the value of the poetry, or even his serv. in the ch. was less operative, I suppose, in draw. this compliment to bishop, than the pun on his name, for he is made, in that immortal work, to sign, J. Episcopius. JOHN, Guilford 1639, had w. Ann, s. John, and Stephen, and d. bef. 7 Jan. 1661, when his inv. was taken. They are nam. in the will of the wid. pro. June 1676 at Hartford; as also her s.-in-law, James Steele, wh. had m. 18 Oct. 1651, I suppose, her d. Bethia; gr.d. Elizabeth Hubbard, perhaps d. of George. JOHN, Guilford 1648, s. of the preced. was b. in Eng. m. 13 Dec. 1650, Susanna, d. of Henry Goldham, had Mary, b. 28 Nov. 1652; John; Nathaniel; Susanna; Elizabeth; Samuel, 28 Oct. 1670; Sarah, 22 Jan. 1674; and Abigail, 25 June 1680; and he d. Oct. 1683. His wid. d. 1 Nov. 1703, and the partition of her est. Jan. 1704, gives ano. s. Daniel, and shows how some of the ds. were m. Mary Field had bef. been w. of John Hodgkin, and of Isaac Johnson, as is said; Susanna Blatchley was w. of Moses; Elizabeth Scranton was perhaps wid. of the sec. John of G. wh. had prob. m. her as wid. of Thomas Clark of the same; and the other two ds. were unm. as presum. from no surnames being giv. JOHN, Salem, k. by the Ind. 17 Apr. 1689. Perhaps he was s. of the sec. Edward, or his br.JOHN, New Haven 1689, eldest s. of the first James, m. Abigail, d. of Nathaniel Willet of Hartford, and I hear no more, exc. as by the diligence of Mr. White taught, that he had Nathaniel, b. 15 Mar. 1691; Abigail, 5 June 1692; John, 1 Nov. 1693; Nathaniel, again, 5 Oct. 1695; Willet, 17 Oct. 1697; James, 17 Feb. 1700; Thomas, 10 Dec. 1701; Jeremiah, 7 Nov. 1703; Sarah, 29 Nov. 1705; Dinah, 1 Mar. 1708; and Ebenezer, 29 July 1710. In this yr. the f. d. and all the ch. exc. Nathaniel and Thomas, surv. JOSEPH, Stamford, assum. to be one of the early sett. with Denton; but as the name is never found, exc. once, and this is recent date, I doubt, that the Rev.

(for we have no orig. for very many yrs.) 7 Mar. 1647, is made the day of his b. by the absurdity of more recent copy; in his room was b. ano.

Elizabeth perhaps only ch. and d. 23 Nov. 1640. His will, of 30 Oct. preced. leav. to Rev. Robert Fordham a fellow passeng. memo. of kindness, giv. in abstr. Geneal. Rtg. 11. 263, leads me to feel sure, that he had not long been in the country, and prob. that William wh. d. 5 Oct. 1640, was his s. More than 3/5 of his inv. of prop. £271. 2. 2. was in money. His wid. d. 1 July 1672, and his d. had m. 13 Dec. 1650, John Briscoe of Watertown. BITTS, JAMES, Boston, "the Scotchman," to wh. Capt. Keayne, in Dec. 1653, by codic. to his will, gave 20S. Perhaps he was a prisoner, taken in the battle of Dunbar, 3 Sept. 1650, sent over the yr. after to be sold here (of whose recept. here Cotton wrote to the Ld. General Cromwell in that curious letter, preserv. in the invalu. vol. call. Hutch. Coll.), for of that cargo of human flesh we have no invoice; while his name is not seen in the doleful consignm. of 272 others by the John and Sarah, suppl. from the fatal field of Worcester, call. Cromwell's crowning mercy, in the foll. yr. BIXBY, DANIEL, Andover, m. 2 Dec. 1674, Hannah, prob. d. of Thomas Chandler of the same, had Daniel, Thomas, David, and Joseph, b. respectiv. 18 Sept. 1675; 18 Dec. 1681; 15 Feb. 1688; and 5 Mar. 1696; beside the ds.

Rachel, m. 1709, had Rachel, perhaps others, certain. Hannah, posthum. 30 Apr. 1715, he having d. 1714, prob. under mid. age. In Hist. of N. Jackson could find little of him to tell. JOSEPH, Salisbury, an early sett. m. 1617, Sarah, wid. of Luke Heard, wh. came from Assington, Co. Suff. and her maid. name was Wyatt, as Farmer tells; was then of Ipswich, and Rowley bef. 1667, but I can tell no more. JOSEPH, Boxford, perhaps s. of the preced. m. 1682, Sarah Gould, had Sarah, Joseph, Jonathan, George, Daniel, Benjamin, Mary, and Abigail, and d. a. 1704. NATHANIEL, IPSWICH 1637, of wh. Mr. Felt can tell me no more. THOMAS, Salem 1636; and equal. short is the tale for him. Very freq. is the name in our early rec. Bisby or Bigsbee, as it was pronounc. and not rarely is heard in our day. A wid. Mary B. was receiv. into Boston ch. 20 June 1640; but of wh. she had been w. is not found. BLACHLEY, AARON, Branford, m. 1686, Sarah, wid. of Robert Foot. Moses and THOMAS, of the same town, engag. 1667, in form. ch. covenant, prob. were brs. BLACK, DANIEL, Rowley 1680, in the pt. wh. bec Boxford. One of the prisoners, after the sad gleanings at Worcester fight, 3 Sept. 1651, sent over here for sale by the John and Sarah, bore this name, and may be the sufferer possib. but not prob. as near all of the poor fellows d. bef. his date, of homesickness or the scurvy. GEORGE, Gloucester, by w. Dorothy, had Thomas, b. 9 June 1658, d. soon; and Ruth, 3 Sept. 1659. HENRY, freem. of Mass. 1645, of wh. no more is heard by me. [[189]] See Blake. JOHN, Charlestown 1634, with w. Susanna, adm. of the ch. 4 Jan. foll. yet not being nam. by Frothingham causes a doubt as to resid. but he was adm. freem. 29 May 1644. At Salem, Felt finds a John, 1636, wh. he thinks the same and freem. 6 Mar. 1632, wh. seems inconsist., had Lydia, bapt. 25 Dec. 1636, d. soon; Lydia, again, 3 June, 1638; and ano. d. 27 Nov. 1640, not nam. on the rec.

Not seldom this name is confus. with Blake. BLACKBURNE, WALTER, Boston 1640, had, perhaps liv. at Roxbury, was of ar. co. 1638, freem. 22 May 1639, went home 1641, leav. w. Elizabeth but whether the h. came back, or she foll. him, no means of telling are within reach. BLACKFORD, NICHOLAS, Newport, among, the freem. of 1655. BLACKLEACH, BENJAMIN, Cambridge, m.

Exercise m. 24 Aug. 1660, Richard Rasor; thence rem. to Hartford, went home prob. in 1678 (unless it were his s. John, that went) but next yr. came again, and d. at Wethersfield, 23 Aug. 1683. His w. Elizabeth d. a few weeks earlier. JOHN, Boston, s. of the preced. by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 25 May 1659; John, b. 1660, rem. next yr. to Hartford, there bot. of his f. the est. that Elder Goodwin sold him, went to Eng. in 1678, but next yr. emb. for Boston, 8 Mar. in the Mayflower, with a ch. wh. may have been sent there for educat. and, after long resid. at Wethersfield, d. 9 Sept. 1703, aged 77, and the rec. is prob; aggrav. by 10 yrs. His wid. d. 1708, aged 74. His ds. then were Elizabeth Harris, and Mary Olcott, w. of John, wh. had first been wid. of Thomas Welles, and after d. of O. was w. of Joseph Wadsworth the intrepid preserver of the Col. Chart. in the famous Charter Oak of Hartford. His s. John d. 1700, leaving only s. John. RICHARD, Stratford 1685, then call. hims. 30 yrs. old. He m. Dec. 1680 Abigail, eldest d. of John Hudson of New Haven, wh. d. Mar. 1713, had Richard, Jael, and Joseph. He m. 1717, a wid. wh. had two hs. bef. and he d. 1731.WILLIAM, Boston, perhaps transient resid. for short period betw. 1641 and 9. Sometimes this name appears Blacklidge. BLACKLEY, or BLAKESLEY, EDWARD. See Blakesley. JOHN, New Haven, eldest s. of Samuel, m. Grace, d. of Moses Ventris, had John, b. 15 July 1676; Hannah, 6 Aug. 1681; Mary, 15 May 1683; and perhaps others. SAMUEL, New Haven, m. 3 Dec. 1650, Hannah Potter, liv. first at Guilford, there had [[190]] John, b 22 Oct. 1651, but at N.

Of this list the first and last were b. at Roxbury, and the first six were bapt. Cothren says, in Aug. 1697. THOMAS, wh. came in the Hopewell, Capt. Babb, from London, 1635, aged 20, is by Hinman, 116, found in some pt. of Conn. but, unluck. he tells not where. In many rec. the name is inextric. confus. with Blatchley, and should be Blakesly. BLACKMAN, BENJAMIN, Dorchester, youngest s. of John of the same, had Keziah, bapt. 18 June 1693; Elizabeth 16 Dec. 1694; Susan, 28 Nov. 1697; George, 31 Mar. 1700; Jemima, 15 Mar. 1702; Hepzibah, 24 June 1704; Mary, 6 July 1707; Eliphalet, and Benjamin, both 4 May 1712; but the name of his w. is unkn. HENRY, Charlestown, of wh. I can hear nothing, but that he d. a. 1674, and that leave to sell his ho. in favor of his ch. (only one) was giv. May 1675, to John Trumbull of C. whose d. Mary he m. 25 Aug. 1663. But the manÕs name was Blackmore. JOHN, Dorchester 1640, perhaps earlier, by w. Mary, d. of Robert Pond, had John, b. 10 Aug. 1656; Jonathan, 1 Jan. 1658; Sarah, bapt. 17 July 1659; Joseph, b. 27 June 1661; Mary, bapt. 18 Oct. 1663; and. Benjamin, 31 Dec. 1665; was freem. 1665, and d. 28 Apr. 1675, leav. wid. Sarah, by wh., perhaps, he had Adam, 9 Dec. 1670; and Abraham, 8 Feb. 1675.

BLACKMORE, JAMES, Providence, m. Mary, d. of William Hawkins, but no date is kn. to me, exc. that he bot. ld. of Thomas James, Jan. 1690, and had JOHN, wh. when he sold that est. 15 Feb. 1717, call. hims. s. and heir of James. JOHN, Lynn, rem. 1637, to Sandwich, as Lewis says, without telling his bapt. name. As the surname is so very rare, it may be lawful to conject. that he was f. of Henry of Charlestown, whose w. Mary d. 26 Mar. 1671, in her 24th yr. and of that Providence John no more is in my power to tell. WILLIAM, Scituate 1665, Deane says, came that yr. from Eng. m. 1666, Elizabeth Banks, had Peter, b. 1667; John, 1669; Phebe, 1672; and William, 1675; was k. by the Ind. 21 Apr. 1676, and next yr. his wid. m. Jacob Bumpus. Phebe m. Ebenezer Holmes; Peter d. 1692, leav. Joseph, and Jane; William d. 1698,without ch. and John was then liv. BLACKWELL, JEREMY, came in the Truelove, 1635, aged 18, and that is all I have gain. a. him. John, Sandwich, s. perhaps eldest, of Michael [[191]] of the same, by w. Sarah had John, b. 26 Dec. 1675; Nathaniel, 16 Dec. 1676; Desire, 20 Dec. 1678; Alice, 8 May 1681; Jane, 3 Nov. 1682; Lettice; and Caleb. He d. 1678; and at the distrib. of the est. of their gr.f. wh. d. 1709, neither Desire, nor Caleb, nor Nathaniel, is nam. tho. both Caleb and Nathaniel are nam. in his will. JOHN, Boston, was one of the purchas. 1684, of a large tract from Mass. for hims. and others in London, and at the last elect. in 1686, bef. loss of our chart., was candid. to be chos. an Assist. See Hutch. Coll. 543. Douglas, I. 419. Belkn. I. 116, and Col. Rec. V. 467, 504. JOSHUA, Sandwich, br. of the preced. had Joshua, b. 12 Jan. 1683; Mary, 5 Oct. 1684; Samuel, 13 Apr. 1689, beside Michael, Sarah, Jane, and four other ds. not nam. at the distribut. of est. of the gr.f. MICHAEL, or MYLES, Sandwich, had Michael, b. 1 June 1648, wh. d. at 25 yrs. prob. unm.; John; Joshua; and Jane. Hardly can I doubt, that this man is he designat. in the Col. list of those able to bear arms 1643, as Miles Black, Geneal. Reg. IV. 257. BLACKWOOD, CHRISTOPHER, Scituate, hot. 1641, the ho. of Rev. John Lothrop, and succeed. him as preach. but next yr. sold the est. to Chauncy, wh. bec. the sett. min. and B. went home. See Lechford, 41; and Deane, 172, 222. BLAGDEN, SAMUEL, New Hampsh. with most others, in 1691, solicit protect. of Mass. BLAGGE, HENRY, Braintree, brickburner, had Philip, b. 24 Mar. 1643, rem. prob. to Boston 1653, d. 1662, leav. wid. Elizabeth and s. Nathaniel, a brickmaker, wh. is very near, I judge, to the same trade with his f. He left good est. of wh. 19 Aug. of that yr. admin. was giv. to the wid. for self and seven ch. Often the spell. is Blague, and, I think, sometimes Black. BLAGUE, JOSEPH, Saybrook, m. 10 Feb. 1685, Martha Kirtland, d. prob. of Nathaniel of the same, had Elizabeth b. 26 May 1687; Joseph, 17 Nov. 1689, d. at 2 yrs.; Mary, 27 Aug. 1692; Joseph, again, 7 Oct. 1694; and where he was b. the spell. may have differ. BLAISDELL, or BLASDALE, HENRY, Salisbury, by w. Mary had Ebenezer, b. 17 Oct. 1657; Mary, 29 May 1660; and Henry, 28 May 1663; rem. to Amesbury, there was freem. 1690; may have been s. of Ralph. RALPH, Salisbury 1640, but part of that yr. was liv. at York, by w. Elizabeth had Mary, b. 5 Mar. 1642; Ralph, 1643; beside, perhaps, Henry, b. in Eng. 1633; and certain. Sarah, wh. d. 17 Jan. 1647. I think some ground for conject. there is that the f. went away and d. For in Aug. 1667, a wid. B. was there and then d. when Mary, d. of her h. was w. of John or Joseph Stowers, as we may prefer to award the bapt. name, under the light of Geneal. Rep,. VllI. 53 and 4. The name [[192]] is found in New Hampsh. and one of the M. C. of that State in 1809-10 was Daniel B. BLAKE, CHRISTOPHER, Boston 1663, a tailor. EDWARD, Dorchester, s. of William, b. in Eng. m.

He d. 26 July 1662. Farmer suppos. he might be the H. Black wh. was made freem. 1645; but I see some reas. for differ. opin. JAMES, Dorchester, s. of William the first, b. in Eng. freem. 1652, rep. 1677, was deac. and rul. Elder, m. a. 1651, Elizabeth eldest of the ch. of deac.

His w. d. 16 Jan. 1694, and he m. 17 Sept. 1695, at Rehoboth, Elizabeth Hunt, and d. 28 June 1700, aged 77. His will, made two days bef., is very abund. in giv. fam. connex. JAMES, Dorchester, eldest s. of the preced. was deac. m. 6 Feb. 1682, Hannah Macy, wh. d. 1 June foll. their only ch. Elizabeth d. in Nov. preced. few days after b.

His will of 8 Aug. 1721, provides for the two s. and their mo. wh. a. in her 90th yr. 11 Jan. 1752; but he had d. 22 Oct. 1732. JASPER, Hampton, d. 11 Feb. 1673, had Dorothy, or Deborah, b. 17 Sept. 1668, wh. m. 22 Jan. 1689, Nathaniel Locke of the same. But in his will he names w. Deborah, and ch.

By sec. w. Hannah he had Hannah, b. 8 Sept. 1693; Elizabeth 21 Feb. 1696; John, again, 23 Apr. 1698; and Josiah, 11 Mar. 1700. No full report of the m. of either w. is within reach, nor can dates of b. of all of the ch. be found. Yet he was town clk., deac. and a. 2 Mar. 1718. JOHN, Middletown, m. 1673, Sarah, d. of Richard Hall of the same, had Mercy, b. 16 Nov. of that yr.; Sarah, a. 1675; Mary, 29 July 1677; Elizabeth 16 Mar. 1679; Abigail, 25 Jan. 1681; John, 19 Mar. 1683; Jonathan, 27 July 1685; Stephen, 15 July 1691; and Richard, wh. d. at 11 mos. JOHN, Hampton, took o. of alleg. 26 Apr. 1678. JOHN, Boston, joiner, had w. Sarah, and s. Richard, as from his will, 8 Oct. 1692, is learn. I presume he had not many yrs. liv. here, for he speaks of prop. in Eng. as well as in N. E. wh. he gives wholly to w. and makes her extrix. so that the s. was prob. young. JOSEPH, Dorchester, youngest s. of James the first, by w. Mehitable had Hopestill, b. 11 Jan. 1691; Nathaniel, 6 Sept. 1692, d. in few weeks; Elizabeth 5 Dec. 1693; Mehitable, 23 Mar. 1696; Joseph, 8 Mar. 1699; Zipporah, 8 Jan. 1701; Ruth, 10 Dec. 1702; Ann, 3 Mar. 1705; Jeremiah, 13 Mar. 1707; Sarah, 14 July 1709, and Ebenezer, 22 Oct. 1712; and the f. d. 1 Feb. 1739. NATHANIEL, Boston 1676. PHILIP, Boston 1676. RICHARD, Andover 1645, one of the found. of the ch. perhaps was passeng. in the Confidence 1638, from Southampton, aged 16. In 1644 he was at Dorchester, but this seems slight ground for the tradit. that he was br. of William the sec. He d. 1695, therefore he was, I think, too young to be omit. in numb. of s. of the f. tho. William had br. Richard, b. four yrs. it is said, later than hims. We may well think that Richard d. young. WILLIAM, Dorchester, wh. came 1630, in the Mary and John, was eldest s. of Giles of Little Baddow, Co. Essex, had brot. with him William, b. 1620; James, 1623; John; and Edward, bef. ment. and perhaps Ann, wh. m. Jacob Legare; in 1636 went to Springfield with Pynchon, yet contin. hardly more than a yr. He was a very useful citizen,freem. 14 Mar. 1639, ar. co. 1646, selectman, town clk. etc. and d. 25 Oct. 1663, aged 69. His wid. Agnes, prob. mo. of all his ch. d. 22 July 1678. To her his will, made 3 Sept. 1661, pro. 28 Jan. 1664, refers, and to five ch. of wh. four were s. but none are nam. [[194]] *WILLIAM, Dorchester, eldest s. of the preced. b. in Eng. had Samuel, b. 14 May 1650; Ann, 6 Mar. 1653; Mary, 20 Mar. 1655; and William, 22 Feb. prob. 1657; Nathaniel, 4 July 1659; Edward, 13 Apr. 1662; Experience, 17 June 1665; beside Susan, wh. d. 4 May 1676; and at Milton (lately set off from D.), of unkn. date, Mehitable. All these, exc. William, wh. had been press. 1675, for a soldier in Philip's war, and enroll. in Moseley's comp. and prob. d. of the hardships of the Narragansett serv. are nam. in his will of 23 June 1703. From this we learn all the surnames of h's of his ds. Ann, m. 18 Dec. 1676, Thomas Gilbert, the only one of wh. I learn the date or bapt. name; however strange such ignorance may appear. The others are call. Mary Willis, Experience Carver; and Mehitable Briggs. He was rep. for M. sev. yrs. His wid. Hannah, d. of Thomas Tolman wh. certain. was not mo. of the earliest ch. had been w. of George Lyon, d. 4 Aug. 1729, aged 87 yrs. At the N. E. coll. in 1830, Farmer found thirteen gr. of this name, eleven of them at Harv. BLAKEMAN, ADAM (as I saw that he wrote at the University, as he usual. did after, tho. some of his descend. would have it Blackman), b. in Staffordsh. was bred at Christ's Coll. Oxford, being matricul. 28 May 1617, in his 19th yr. preach. in the Cos. of Leicester and Derby bef. he came over, wh. was a. 1638, and was soon after at Guilford, but in 1640 bec. the first min. of Stratford. His ch. exc. Benjamin, were prob. all b. in Eng. and he d. 7 Sept. 1665; and the wid. Jane d. 1673. Lechford, 43, miscalls him Blackwell. In the Magn. III. 94, c. 7, Mather exults at his chance for a pun; Trumbull tells something; and the ch. rec. of Roxbury, a little; but we rejoice in his will of 16 Mar. 1665, as copious in informat. One d. and five s. Mary, James, Samuel, Benjamin, John, and Deliverance are ment. in it; and from later report the last was a wild youth, wh. gave his mo. much disquiet. His Latin bks. he would give to Joshua Atwater, s. of his d. Mary, if he were educ. for the min. tho. first intend. for s. Benjamin, wh. first chose ano. way of life; yet, in the end, the gr.s. refus. the legacy, ana Benjamin took to learn. BENJAMIN, Malden, youngest s. of the preced. after gr. at coll. 1663, was preach. at M. and there ord. 1674; m. 1 Apr. 1675 (not Sarah, as strangely is seen in the rec. of M., but) Rebecca, d. of Joshua Scottow, wh. d. as her gr.stone tells, 21 Mar. 1715. He gave up his pulpit 1678, rem. next yr. to Saco, there was a magistr. but he for some short term preach. at Scarborough.

Fewer, perhaps, follow. him to New Haven, whence after short resid. and sell. some of his library to the Col. in May 1659, he went home, carry. all his ch. exc Jeremiah, wh. was at New London so late as 1663.

THOMAS, Hartford, was an early, but not orig. sett. of whose com. from Eng. nothing is kn. but his first resid. was in that pt. [[202]] of Boston call. the mount, afterwards Braintree, now Quincy. In 1639 or 40 he is first ment. in Conn. at the same time with Thomas, jr. wh. may be the freem. of 18 May 1642 in Mass., there left by his f. whose d. is early heard of, tho. exact date is not gain. His wid. Margaret was very resolute and capable, and after two or three yrs. rem. with all her ch. exc. Thomas, and Ann, to Springfield, there d. 28 Aug. 1684. She had nine ch. and it has been absurd. said, that all were brot. from Eng. Of most, this is true. Ann, wh. m. 29 Apr. 1642, Robert Chapman of Saybrook; Mary m. 26 Nov. 1646, Joseph Parsons; Thomas; Nathaniel; Lawrence; and perhaps Samuel; were b. in Eng. but our side of the water may claim, prob.

THOMAS, Weymouth, was possib. the freem. of 18 May 1642, but next yr. certain. rem. to Rehoboth, there d. June 1649. His will, by careless statem. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 282, said to bear date of 8th of that mo. but also on same day to be brot. into Ct. gives valua. inform. a. his ch. Jonathan, to wh. he devis. his ho., his eldest d. whose bapt. name is not told, w. of Thomas Williams; Mary, w. of Nathaniel Harmon of Braintree; s.-in-law (perhaps mean. s. of his w.) Nicholas Ide, and his s. Nathaniel. From find. no ment. of him after 1649 at R. I suppose, confus. of him with Thomas of Norwich was easy. THOMAS, Norwich, 1660, s. of Thomas the first, had been of Hartford, and early after d. of his f. rem. to Saybrook, a. the end of Oct. 1644, took u. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 20 Nov. 1640; Sarah, 26 Aug. 1647; Mary, 7 Feb. 1649; Thomas, 3 Mar. 1652, wh. d. 29 Jan. 1682, prob. unm.; Deliverance, Aug. 1655; Samuel, 9 Dec. 1657; all bef. rem. from S. and at N. had Ann, Sept. 1660, the sec. Eng. ch. b. in that place; Rebecca, Mar. 1663; and he d. 15 Apr. 1688. By will, made two days bef. (req. by the insuffer. tyranny of Sir Edmund Andros to be brot. to Boston for proof and rec., support. his retainers by the fees of office), provis. for w. Elizabeth six ds. and only s. Samuel, is seen. Of this name, in 1834, four had been gr. at Harv. four at Dart. seventeen at Yale, beside six at other N. E. coll. of wh. most disting,. are Rev. Daniel of Concord, b. at Springfield, Jan. 1715, Y. C. 1732, d. 11 May 1764; his s. Daniel, b. 1740, H. C. 1760, d. in the Prov. of New Brunswick 1806; Jonathan, H. C. 1763, Ch. Just. of the Sup.

[[203]] JONATHAN, Salisbury, m. 7 Feb. 1689, Mary, d. perhaps of Rev. Joseph Rowlandson, had Hannah, b. 15 Jan. foll.; Daniel, 12 Sept. 1691, d. in few days; Mary, 11 Oct. 1692; and Joseph, 12 Aug. 1694, wh. d. at 2 yrs.

He was rep. 1693, and d. 3 July of that yr. THOMAS, Cambridge, came in the Increase from London, 1635, aged 30, with w. Susanna, 37, if custom ho. rec. be true; ch. Daniel, 4; and Samuel, 1 and 1/2; was adm. freem. 3 Mar. 1636; had here Susanna, b. June 1637; and Thomas, wh. d. 7 Aug. 1639. He made his will, as giv. in Geneal. Reg.

Three of this name, says Farmer, in MS. had been gr. at Dart. and three at younger N. E. coll. in 1834. BLOIS, or BLOYS, EDMUND, Watertown, was freem. 22 May 1639, but Bond well presumes, that he had been here sev. yrs. as his w. Mary, aged 40, with s. Richard, 11, came, to join him, in the Francis, from Ipswich, 1634, and this renders it prob. that he was of a Suffk. fam. His w. d. 29 May 1675, and he m. 27 Sept. foll. Ruth, d. of Hugh Parsons, and d. at gr. age, bef. April, 1681. It is said he was b. 1587. The wid. liv. to Dec. 1711.

RICHARD, Watertown, s. of Edmund, b. in Eng. m. 10 Feb. 1658, Michael, d. of Robert Jennison, had Richard, b. 7 Dec. 1659; Mary, 11 Dec. 1661; and s. Michael, 3 Apr. 1664. He was a serj. and d. 7 Aug. 1665. His wid. m. 11 July 1667, John Warren. On Cambridge rec. the name is Blosse, and in that of the Col., Bloyce.

He was freem. 1690. BLOMFIELD, or BLUMFIELD, HENRY, Salem 1638. JOHN, Mass. d. a. 1640, leav. s. John, beside Thomas, wh. was made admor. THOMAS, Newbury, an early sett. d. 1639, leav. a lame d. and s. Thomas; yet he may be the same as the preced. THOMAS, Newbury, s. of the preced. had Mary, b. 15 Jan. 1642; Sarah, 30 Dec. 1643; John, 15 Mar. 1646; [[204]] Thomas, 12 Dec. 1648; Nathaniel, 10 Apr. 1651; Ezekiel, 1 Nov. 1653; Rebecca, 1656; Ruth, 4 July 1659; and Timothy, 1 Apr. 1664. He next yr. rem. to Woodbridge, N. J. where his s. Thomas was rep. in 1675. WILLIAM, Hartford 1639, had liv. in some part of Mass. perhaps Newbury, after arr. at Boston in the Elizabeth, 1634, from Ipswich, Co. Suffk. aged 30, with w. Susan, 25, and ch.

Simon Sacket of Springfield, and to her only ch. Joseph with his mo. the gr.f. B. gave his New London est. after she had m. Woodward. Hardly is the report of this gent. utter. with adequate distinctness by the Conn. historians. Porter makes his rem. "perhaps to N. J." mistak. him prob. for Thomas; and Hinman, 117, says only, that he was gone from H. 1663, down the Conn. riv. This name, in the third generat. had bec. Bloomfield. A gov. of N. J. in our day, was Joseph, a descend. of Thomas. BLOOD, JAMES, Concord 1639, freem. 2 June 1641, idly reput. by some, solely from similar surname, to be br. of that Col. B. kn. in Eng. hist. for gr. boldness in steal. from the Tower, 1671, the crown and regalia of Charles II. and the greater impudence, by wh. he gain. not only impun. but an est. from the jolly k.

William Wilson; was an early propr. of Groton, deac. and rep. for Sudbury 1660, unless this honor belong. (as to me seems prob.) rather to his f. and d. 26 Nov. 1692. Shattuck. One JAMES, of Concord, possib. the same as preced. but more prob. his neph. and still more likely to be s. of ano. stock, had w. Elizabeth wh. d. at Lynn Dec. 1676; and he m. 19 Nov. 1679, Isabel, the young wid. of David Wyman, d. of John Farmer of C.

The date of b. of all is unkn. but Butler's Hist. has their ms. and ds. Elizabeth m. 1 Dec. 1686, Thomas Tarbell, third of that name.

A s. wh. came and return. with him, d. bef. Dec. 1625, and two other ch. had been b. in the interval. See a good let. from him to Gov. Bradford in Young's Chron. of the Pilgr. 480.

BOSWAY, WILLIAM, is the name borne on the rolls of Turner's comp. 1676, of whose resid. I am less solicitous, because so many are incorrect. writ. that we can easily doubt the accuracy of this. BOSWELL, JAMES, Wethersfield 1658, d. 24 Dec. 1660, prob. without fam. JOHN, Boston 1630, prob. came in the fleet with Winthrop early mem. of the ch. d. soon.

BOSWORTH, BENJAMIN, Hingham 1635, came, perhaps, in the [[216]] Elizabeth Dorcas 1635 with Henry Sewall, and may have been s. of Edward, wh. prob. d. on the passage; at least, in the Col. Rec.

BOURLE, WILLIAM, Charlestown, a soldier in Moseley's comp. k. in the Narraganset fight, 19 Dec. 1675; but my suspicion of the spell. of the name is very great, tho. to offer a substitute is not easy. Mr. Wyman tells me, the name was Burt. BOURNE, ELISHA, Sandwich, s. of Richard, m. 26 Oct. 1675, Patience Skiff, d. perhaps, of James of the same, had Nathan, Elisha, Elizabeth Abigail, Bathsheba, Hannah, and Mary, but as no date is giv. for any one, I fear we can hardly be sure of the order of success.

A strange complicat. of errors, as to the time of his d. the condition of his worldly affairs, and the age of his eldest s. as if he were left a minor, beyond the usual blunders of happy tradit. had so overgrown the fam. hist. as greatly to mislead the Rev. William Jenks, in his Eulogy, deliv. 1813, after the dec. of the founder of Bowdoin Coll. Quite extensive was the spread of these misconcept. from the deserv. high esteem of the writer's exact information on all subjects his modesty suffers him to treat.

Martha, w. of John Card, as Brenton by deed of 16 Dec. 1667 gave him portion of est. that would have gone to his w. then dec. and Mary, w. of Peleg Sanford, as to him, in deed of 22 Dec. 1665, B. gives her portion. An absurd tradit. about him in a recent Eng. Biog. of his descend. the late Sir Jahleel B. needs neither notice nor refut. of other errors. WILLIAM, Bristol, s. of the preced. one of the early sett. was a mariner, Collector of Boston 1691, and by w.

After very honora. serv. with Davidson, secr. of Queen Elizabeth he partook in the fall of that statesman, the conseq. of the Queen's heartless deception and treachery; and abandon. 1587, political life. Devot. hims. for many yrs. to relig. he was the first promin. layman wh. reject. conform. to the ceremon. of the ch. of Eng. He was in the employm. of the crown, however, as postmaster bef.

Lucretia, Mary, and William, and is even so rash as to say, two of them were b. in America. Yet if b. on our side of the water, he ought to have presum. they could not, from his age, be ch. of the Elder. The first was w. others, ch. of Jonathan. WILLIAM, DUXBURY, s. of Jonathan, was prob. b. at Leyden, went in Aug. 1645, under serg. Nash, as part of the forty men to be furnish. by this smallest Col. to repress the peril from the Narragansets, and encourage the friendsh. of Uncas [see Bradford's Hist. 431-6], and serv. in that exped. 17 days, was count. among the freem. in 1643, and prob. went with his f. to New London. WILLIAM, Duxbury, s. of Love, m. 2 Jan. 1673, Lydia, d. of George Partridge, and d. 3 Nov. 1723. Whether he had ch. is not kn. but he was in good esteem, and was rep. 1675. WRESTLING, Plymouth, youngest s. of the gr. Elder, b. prob. at Leyden, in Holland, came with [[247]] his f. in the Mayflower, d. "a young, man unm." bef. his f. says Gov. Bradford, but Caulkins, in Hist. of Norwich, 115, refers to an idle tradit. that makes him ancest. of Sir Christopher Brewster of our days. Sir Christopher perhaps may descend from a gr.s. of the Elder and youngest s. of Love, wh. rec. this name, prob. sev. yrs. after d. of his uncle. In a very agreea. Memoir of the "Life and Time of Elder Brewster," by Rev. Ashbel Steele, Phila. 1857, the author too casi. assum. that this s. of the great Elder was of Portsmouth 1629, and built up his case on three piles of fictitious paper: The first, a forged deed of 6 Dec. 1629 ( wh. fell on Sunday), of ld. in Portsmouth, that was not so call. bef. May 1653, but always Strawberry Bank, with prob. false grantor and witnesses, and Writ. in language of one hundred and fifty yrs. later use; next, a fabricat. fam. rec. whereby it is shown, that Wrestling B. was m. 1630 to E. S. had s. John, b. 20 Jan. 1631, and daur. 3 May 1636, nam. Love Lucretia ! ! ! and the w. d. in childbed, thirty-eight yrs. after (perhaps the ch. had it liv. would have seem. to require double name, and so been bapt. Mephistophiles Beelzebub); that E. S. the w. is call. d. of Augustine Story, one of the illustrious grantees in the more ambitious forgery of the Wheelwright deed of all New Hampsh. from the Ind. made also on Sunday in an earlier mo. of the same yr. and little more than eight yrs. after Wrestling came over the Atlantic, with his f.; and the third fountain of evidence is from many, near. all spurious, accounts of business transactions, wh. by patient investigat. are found to be almost wholly fanciful. In his new Ed. Mr. Steele will, no doubt, correct those childish fictions of the last century. WRESTLING, Duxbury, br. of Nathaniel of the same, had, with his br. William, gr. of lds. (in honor of the rever. serv. of their gr.f. dec.) at Swanzey, provid. they went there to liv.; but I presume neither of them accept. the favor, as they cont. at D. By w. Mary he had sev. ch. and d. 1 Jan. 1697. He was constable in 1680, and serv. on jury in 1682 and 4. Ten of this name had been gr. at N. E. coll. in 1834. BRIARD. See Bryer; and (such is the carelessn. of subordin. officials), the man may appear as Friard. BRIARS, JOHN, Gloucester 1652, m. that yr.

WILLIAM, Watertown 1636, Boston 1643, had Peter, b. Jan. 1644. He came, he says, with John Oldham, and calls him f.-in-law, but perhaps that means, that J.O. m. his mo. and yet he is not ment. by Bond, exc. very slight p. 95, but not at all 861-4. WILLIAM, [[249]] Charlestown, by w. Persis, d. of Thomas Pierce of C. had Rebecca, b. 2 Feb. 1644, d. soon; Samuel, 25 Mar. 1647; was freem. 1647. He is the same as the preced. and his wid. m.

From HobartÕs Diary we find, that Hannah and Peter Briggs were bapt. 2 Aug. 1646, and John, 20 Dec. foll. but their f. is unkn. RICHARD, Taunton, perhaps s. of Clement, m. 15 Aug. 1662, Rebecca Hoskins, had William, b. 21 Nov. 1663; Rebecca,, 16 Aug. 1665; Richard, 7 Apr. 1668; John, 13 Feb. 1673; Joseph, 15 June 1674; Benjamin, 15 Sept. 1677. THOMAS, Portsmouth, R. I. younger s. of the first John of the same, had in 1678 w. Mary, and no more can I learn a. him. THOMAS, and WILLIAM, nam. in Essex Inst. II. 70, in my opin. mean Biggs. WALTER, Scituate 1643, had w. Frances, and d. a. 1684. His will, of that yr. names w. s. John, James, Cornelius, and d. Hannah Winslow. WILLIAM, Boston by w. Mary had Hannah, b. 28 Aug. 1642, wh. m. 10 Sept. 1657, John Harris. Perhaps he rem. to Lyme betw. 1670 and 1680; at least one of this name was inhab. there at that period. WILLIAM, Taunton, perhaps br. of Jonathan, m. 6 Nov. 1666, Sarah Macumbeer, perhaps d. of William of Marshfield, had William, b. 25 Jan. 1668; Thomas, 9 Sept. 1669; and Sarah, the next day; Elizabeth 4 Nov. 1672; Mary, 14 Aug. 1674; Matthew, 5 Feb. 1677; John, 19 Mar. 1680; and his w. d. next day. This name seems common thro. manu Cos. in Eng. but chief. Norfolk. Five had been gr. at Harv. and fourteen at other N. E. coll. in 1834. BRIGHAM, JOHN, Sudbury, s. of Thomas, rem. to Marlborough, of wh. he was rep. 1689 and 90, had Sarah, b. 27 Mar. 1674; Mary, 6 May 1678; Jotham, 6 June 1680; Hannah, 27 Mar. 1683; and Thomas, 6 May 1687.

He was a capt. and d. 24 July 1713. Sebastian, Cambridge 1636, rem. to Rowley, was capt. 1644, rep. 1650. Johnson's Hist. of N. E. 193, and Gage, in Hist. of Rowley, gave this spel. of the name, wh. Farmer had under Bridham. The bapt. name must be influential in prevent. mistake, and the local historian likely to be correct. THOMAS, Cambridge, came in the Susan and Ellen, 1635, aged 32, freem. 18 Apr. 1636, was not of Watertown, as Bond thot., did not rem. to Sudbury, as Farmer had said, but w.

He made his will 21 Apr. 1716, wh. was pro. 2 June 1717. Six of this name had been gr. at Harv. in 1834, and an equal number in aggreg. at the other N. E. coll.

Dudley, he swore, in support of a nuncup. will of a fellow passeng. dying, on the ocean; was sett. at the Bapt. ch. 1642 after Roger Williams. It has been thot. by some, that he was earlier on our side of the water, and that imperfect rec. proves it, on p. 14 of the Vol. 1. of Col. Rec. of R. I. as to his incorp. in town fellowsh. with others at Providence, wh. bears date 20 Aug. without a yr. Now the supplying, of the numerals for the yr. call admit those wh. the transcriber used, 1637, by no means; for that day was Sunday, when no civil compact could have been enter. into, and bef. that day in the former yr. the place was kn. as Moshasuck, prob. the sec. use of the designat. of the mod. city being, in the foll. mo. at the bapt. of the s. of Roger Williams, Providence, late in Sept. 1638.

The other four were James, Jeremiah, Judah, alias Chad, and Daniel. No connex. is trac. betw. Chad and Henry, of the oldest proprs. His gr.ch. James was min. of the same ch.

Frothingham, 82. JAMES, Newbury, s. of Joseph, a youth of 17, came in the James 1635, from Southampton, arr. at Boston 3 June 1635. But the difficulty of discrim. betw. the many of this name, even by aid of ws. and ch. is insurmount. He, by w. Sarah, d. of capt.

JAMES, Taunton 1643, s. of John, the Assist. b. in Eng. we may be sure, went with his f. to Swanzey, chos. 1665 an Assist. may well be presum. the preacher, put by Mather, in his third classis, at S. unless more than usual confidence is felt in his authority, wh. it is believ. inquiry will not justify, for no durat. in office is ment. nor is any reason kn. for giv. him place in that rather than the sec. classis.

He rem. after, to Colchester; and his d. Abigail, prob. was that capt. on the fatal day of 29 Feb. 1704, carr. to Canada, but ret. safe.

JOB, Boston 1672, suppos. to be d. when inv. was tab. by William Brown, 2 Jan. 1675, was, perhaps, s. of Hugh. He had wish. to live at Charlestown, but was denied the privilege, went abroad, and not being heard of for some yrs. his br. infer. that he was d. JOHN, Pemaquid 1625. JOHN, Salem 1629, a lawyer from London, one of the purch. of the patent from Sir Henry Roswell, engag. (being one of the Assist. of the Mass. Co. and sw. a yr. and a half bef. Endicot took the requisite o.) in Mar. of that yr. to emb. with Samuel his br. in the fleet with Higginson; came in May, reach. S. in June, and soon after, they wish. to foll. the Episc. form of service, caus. such a schism, that Endicot sent them home in the returning sh. and in Sept. or Oct. they were again at London, and came not to our country any more. See the candid views of Eliot, Eccl. Hist. of Mass. in 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. IX. 3 and 4. That JOHN, whose d. 25 Feb. 1687, is ment. in early rec. of New Hampsh. "aged 98 yrs." may possib. have gain. such reputa. by his f. hav. done some brave act against the Spanish enemy even later than the Armada yr. to wh. wild tradit. refer. the b. of his s.

Suffk. in that ch. bapt. 11 Oct. 1601, and so neph. of Abraham and Richard. JOHN, Plymouth, had acquaint. with the Pilgr. at Leyden bef. 1620, but his yr. of com. is unkn. liv. in 1636 at Duxbury; in 1643 at Taunton; Assist. for 17 yrs. from 1636, and serv. as Commissnr. of the Unit.

Much more prob. is the age set against his name, 40, on hid embark. 17 apr. 1635, at the London custom ho. especially if he be that baker, whose fellow-passeng. were two serv. James Walker, aged 15, and Sarah Walker, 17, the latter of wh. in 1640, bec. his w. as descend. suppose. By what I think the wrong statement, he was b. 1589, and this maiden was b. 1618. Beside the number and dates of his ch. disprove or make highly improb. the great age : Sarah; John, b. 1644; Elizabeth; Benjamin; Jacob, 1653; Mary, 13 Sept. 1655; Thomas, 14 July 1657; and Stephen, 1659, wh. was k. by the Ind. at Scarborough 29 June 1677.

John, Hampton, s. of John the first of the same, had a farm giv. 1666 by his f. at the Falls, and so may be suppos. to have m. bef. the Ind. war of Philip, in wh. he serv. longer time than any other man of his town; but no w. or ch. is kn. and he d. 29 Aug. 1683. JOHN, Salem, m. 27 Jan. but by ano. acco. 30 June 1669, Hannah, d. of Francis Collins, had Priscilla, b. 1 June 1669; Margaret, 23 Apr. 1671; Joseph, 11 Sept. 1673; William, 1 Dec. 1677; Hannah, 22 July 1678; and Mary, 4 Jan. 1692; but some confus. evid. appears in rec. of dates of one or two. He was, perhaps, rep. for Marblehead, under the new chart. 1692, and for Salem 1707, 9, and 13; may have d. 14 Apr. 1719. JOHN, a passeng. emb. in Eng. 16 May 1679 on the Prudence for Boston, may have never arr. or soon went home, or sat down in some other town, or [[272]] (wh. is the least likely), he might have gone home to purchase goods in Eng. for trade here.

His will was pro. 2 June next yr. RICHARD, Hingham, m. Nov. 1648, at Weymouth, Elizabeth Marsh. RICHARD, Charlestown, call. old in 1658, d. Oct. 1660. His will prob. is it, that he is the same as the rul. Eld. of Watertown. His will, of 16 Aug. 1659, names w. Elizabeth made extrix. s. Thomas; gr.s. Richard, and George; beside apprent.

Mary had Malachi, b. 1 Feb. 1698; Mercy, 12 Dec. 1703; William, 3 June 1705; and Richard, 28 Feb. 1712. This last liv. over one hundred yrs. of wh. very many he serv. as proprs. clk. Judge Staples remembers him, as seat. in his doorway within two yrs. of the latest. Gathering, at his ho. on the hundredth birthday, rumor went, that his friends made him dance; but, at least, what was then done "shortened his days." I hope not much. ROBERT, Cambridge, came in the Truelove, 1635, aged 24, m. 8 May 1619, Barbara Eden, freem. 1649, d. 23 Nov. 1690, aged only 70, acc. inscript. on gr.stone, as giv. in Cambridge Epit. by wh. his wid. wh. d. 1 June 1693, is said to be aged 80. We may therefore doubt, that here must be error in that very correct work, as we kn. there is, when it marks him freem. 1639. This custom ho. date is inconsist. with the gr.stone; and no Robert B. is among freem. for many yrs. bef. or after. Mitchell's Reg. in Cambr. ch. Gathering, gives him no ch. SAMUEL, Salem 1629, br. of first John, and one of the patentees, nam.

[[276]] The f. d. in that yr. but, after the trial, sent an effective petitn. to the Court. Only three ch. were then liv. Sarah, w. of Joseph Doolittle, Rachel, and Francis; the wid. still liv. in 1695. SAMUEL, Salem, perhaps br. of Hon.

Malford is a parish in the hundr. of North Damenham, a. 6 ms. from Malmsbury, and 5 from Chippenham, in Co. Wilts, on the map of that sh. in Camden's Britannia, call. Christian Malford, perhaps too long, a name for modern maps. In this geogr. detail I am more full, bec. (tho. print. by me, in 1843, 3 Hist. Coll. VIII. 319), a descend. sent lately to Eng. to explore the seat of his ancestors, and his agents ansr. was "finds no such place in Eng. as Malford." In despair, the inquir. accept. Walford, in Wales for the derivat. of his anc. as if, in those early days, from that distant principality, a weaver would travel with his w. so far as Southampton to embark, when Bristol and other ports would have been so much nearer.

WILLIAM, Boston, m. 2 Apr. 1655, Elizabeth d. of George Ruggles of Braintree, had Mary, b. 16 Mar. foll.; and Sarah, 8 Jan. 1658; beside Elizabeth 5 May 1659; and George, 5 Apr. 1668. But my confidence does not reach to all the statem. in a genealog. table, publ. in 1852, by a descend. that makes this last ch. b. "soon after his parents landed." Prob. the compiler paid too much regard to an untrustworthy tradit. that they, ÒWilliam and Elizabeth emigra. from Scotland a. that time, i. e. 1667--that he was a seafar. man, and that he d. soon aft. land. in Mass. that Elizabeth his wid. m. a man by the name of Baldwin, and sett. in Woburn.Ó The only William in Boston, wh. had near those days w. Elizabeth had been here, I think, at least thirteen yrs. and to me it seems very improb. that he came from Scotland bef. 1655. I may not disbelieve, that he d. soon aft. b. of the only s. but fourth ch. yet much do I doubt the story of wid.'s m. to a Baldwin of Woburn, for the only man at W. of that surname wh. had w. Elizabeth was Timothy, and she bore him sev. ch. down to 1692, wh. is quite inconsist. with her being wid. of Boston William Brown. Ano. WILLIAM, Boston, prob. br. of Job, had by n. Lydia, wh. d. 30 July 1680, aged 46, Mary, b. 23 Apr. 1657; and Susanna, 24 Oct. 1659. Perhaps this is the man, m. by dep.-gov. Bellingham, 11 Apr. 1656 to some fam. in the Geneal. Reg. XI. 201, call. William Parchment. Surely we may presume this to be wanton folly, or inexcusab. carelessness. Was it design. for a sneer at the dep.-gov. ? WILLIAM, Salem, s. of Hon. William, m. 29 Dec. 1664, Hannah, d. of George Esp; had William, b. 28 July 1666, d. soon; Hannah, 16 Mar. 1668, d. soon; Samuel, 8 Oct. 1669; William, again, 5 Sept. 1671, d. next yr; John, 2 Nov. 1672; Sarah, 10 Dec. 1674, d. at 14; and Mary 22 Aug. 1679. His w. d. 21 Nov. 1692; and he m. 26 Apr. 1694, Rebecca Bayley, was freem. 1668, one of Andros's counc. 1687-9, and of the counc. of safety, when the usurp. was put down, not nam. by Increase Mather in the chart. of 1692, but chos. next yr. by a full vote of the reps. of the people, and d. 23 Feb. 1716. The benefact. to Harv. Coll. of this gent. of his f. br. and s. are honorab. commemo. by Quincy in his great work. One of his s. Samuel was rep. couns. and judge, and d. June 1731, f; of William, H. C. 1727, and of Samuel, H. C. 1727. This last was f. of William, H. C. 1755, a judge of the Sup. Court 1775 wh. adher. to the crown, and after some yrs. was Gov. of Bermuda d.

WILLIAM, Bristol, had in 1689 three ch. but w. was d. Of this name (some with final e, more without it), it seems impossib. to unravel the whole line and lines. It will be seen, that I have giv. at least, a fair sample. Thirty-six of the name had. in 1834, been gr. at Harv. alone, and Mr. Farmer says fifty-nine others at the various coll. of N. E. N. J. and Union of N. York. Of these, eleven had been clerg. from H. C. and the same number from the others. BROWNELL, GEORGE, Portsmouth, R.

BUCKlNGHAM, DANIEL, and SAMUEL, Milford 1669, were perhaps s. of Thomas. Of the former we learn nothing more than that he m. 1661, Hannah, d. of William Fowler the sec. of M. and of Samuel, only that he was b. 1640, and m. 14 Dec. 1663, Sarah Baldwin, d. of Timothy, and call. Anthony Hawkins his uncle. Mr. Porter adds, that his ch. were Sarah, Ann, Ruth, Esther, Samuel, and Thomas; that his will was of 6 Oct. 1692, his inv. of 2 Apr. 1700; and the inv. of his wid. 12 Sept. 1706. THOMAS, Milford 1639, one of the chief men, had Hannah, wh. m. bef. 1655, Thomas Welch; Thomas, bapt. 8 Nov. 1646; d. 1657, on a visit at Boston. Perhaps his w. was Ann, outliv. him, and in her will, of 18 Mar. 1687, may instr. us, for she names ch. Daniel, Samuel, Thomas, d. Mary Parker, gr.ch. Ann, Mary Merwin, Thomas and Esther, ch. of her d. Hannah Welch, and Sarah Fowler. THOMAS, Saybrook, s. of the preced. was min. 1669, d. 1 Apr. 1709, aged 63, wh. disproves a fond tradit. that he was b. on the passage of his parents, wh. came over with Prudden, and went to M. as one of the first sett. 28 Nov. 1639. If he were then alive, his age should have been call. 71. He had not a coll. educ. but was ord. 1670; and enjoys the distinc. of being one of the found. of Yale Coll. By w. Es- ther, d. of Thomas Hosmer of Hartford, m. 20 Sept. 1666, had Esther, [[285]] b. 10 June 1668; Thomas, 29 Sept. 1670, wh. m. 16 Dec. 1691, Margaret Griswold; Daniel, 2 Oct. 1672; Stephen, 4 Sept. 1675; Samuel, 26 May 1678, d. next mo.; Samuel, again, 24 July 1679, d. 5 Jan. 1685; Hezekiah, 21 June 1682; Temperance, 6 Jan. 1685; and Ann, 2 Aug. 1687. In Mather's Hecatompolis he and Thomas, H. C. 1690, min. of Hartford, wh. was from Milford, not s. (as often said), but perhaps neph. of Rev. Thomas of Saybrook, and Stephen, H. C. 1693, min. of Norwalk, s. of the Saybrook min. appear together. Stephen m. Sarah, d. of Rev. Samuel Hooker, and d. 13 Feb. 1746, aged 70, leav. no ch.; and his f. m. 10 Aug. 1703, for sec. w.

Mr. Porter assures me, that he was s. of Thomas of Saybrook, and had, beside Joseph, wh. liv. to 29 Nov. 1760, Isaac, b. 25 Sept. 1700; and Ann, 12 Apr. 1706; wh. both d. young. BUCKLAND, sometimes BUCKLINE on rec. BENJAMIN, Braintree, m. Rachel, d. of John Wheatley, had Leah, perhaps rem. to Rehoboth, there had David, b. 22 Mar. 1675; and d. a. 1679, for his wid. m. 22 Sept. of that yr. John Loring of Hingham. Leah m. 1687, Thomas, s. of said John. JOSEPH, Rehoboth, perhaps s. of the preced. had Matthew, b. 16 Sept. 1674; beside Nehemiah, wh. was bur.

NICHOLAS, Windsor, s. of first Thomas, m. 21 Oct. 1668, Martha, d. of John Wakefield of New Haven, had John, b. 13 Mar. 1673, d. soon; Hannah, 1 Sept. 1674; John, again, d. 20 Dec. 1675, very young; Martha, 1 Mar. 1678; and John, again, 17 July 1681; beside Ebenezer, wh. d. as did the preced. young. His w. d. 28 Oct. 1684; and by sec. Elizabeth Drake, d. prob. of the sec. John, m. 3 Mar. 1686, he had a third John, 10 Dec. foll.; Nicholas, 8 Jan. 1688 both d. soon; and Elizabeth 19 July 1692. This w. d. 20 Feb. 1698, and he had third w. Hannah Strong, wh. d. 27 Mar. 1719; and he d. 2 Aug. 1728. In Stiles some confus. of this fam. is seen. SAMUEL, New London 1674, m. first, the wid. of the first Matthew Beckwith, and, next, a. 1690, Hannah, wid. of Philip Bill, and d. in 1700. She d. 1709. THOMAS, freem. 6 May 1635, of Mass. prob. of Dorchester, for he rem. soon to Windsor, serv. in the Pequot war, 1637, m. Temperance, d. of Nicholas Denslow, had Timothy, b. 10 Mar. 1639; Elizabeth 21 Feb. 1641; Temperance, 27 Nov. 1642; Mary, 2 Oct. 1644, d. young; Nicholas, 21 Feb. 1647; Sarah 24 Mar. 1649; Thomas, 2 Feb. 1651, d. young; and Hannah, 18 Sept. 1654; beside John, 26 Jan. 1661; d. 28 May 1662, and his wid. d. 26 July 1681. Temperance m. John Ponder; Sarah m. John Phelps; and Hannah m. 14 Aug. 1681, Joshua Welles. THOMAS, Windsor 1670, s. of the preced. m. Hannah, d. of Nathaniel Cooke of the same, had one ch. wh. liv. not long. He d. 28 May 1676, and his wid. m. 30 Jan. 1677, Joseph Baker. TIMOTHY, Windsor, eldest br. of the preced. m. 27 Mar. 1662, Abigail, d. of Richard Vore, bad Timothy, b. 20 Apr. 1664, d. soon; Thomas, 23 June 1665; Abigail, 11 Nov. 1667; Mary, 7 Nov. 1670; Sarah, 10 Apr. 1673; Hannah, 28 June 1676; and Elizabeth 26 Feb. 1679. He d. 31 May 1689, and his wid. d. 20 Dec. 1727. WILLIAM, Hingham 1635, rem. to Rehoboth 1658, and was bur. 1 Sept. 1679. A d. of his m. John Brown, jr. of R. Baruch and Joseph, perhaps his s. were of R. 1690; [[286]] and it is found on rec. that John Bucklin, wh. may be a name of the same stock capricious. varied, d. 20 June 1677. WILLIAM, Hartford, d. 13 May 1691, leav. William, and Charles. He was not relat. of Thomas. BUCKLEY, JOSEPH, Boston, merch. m. Joanna, d. of Richard Shute, wid. of Nathaniel Nichols, perhaps in 1688, had Joseph, bapt. 5 Apr. 1691; and Richard, b. 5 Oct. 1695, both bapt. at Charlestown; and by his will of 24 Nov. 1700, pro. 19 Mar. 1702, provides for that w. during her life to have his dw. ho. wh. had been giv. him by f.-in-law, but to s. Joseph, the eldest, Richard, and Thomas, £300. ea. as he comes to 21 yrs. THOMAS, a soldier of Lothrop's comp. k. 18 Sept. 1675, at Bloody brook. In this form often appears the more disting. name of Bulkly. BUCKLINE, JOHN, Rehoboth, bur. 20 June 1677, as was NEHEMIAH, 19 May preced. Perhaps they were ch. of Joseph Buckland. STEPHEN, Bristol, in Feb. 1689, had w. and two ch. BUCKMAN, JOHN, Boston, by w. Hannah had Hannah, b. 5 July 1653. One of this name was a soldier in Moseley's comp. Dec. 1675. See under Bucknam. BUCKMINISTER, JAMES, Sudbury 1640, an orig. propr. Shattuck. JOSEPH, Boston, s. of Thomas, by w. Elizabeth d. of Hugh Clark; of Watertown, had Joseph, b. 31 July, bapt. 23 Sept. 1666; and the f. d. 20 Nov. 1668. His posthum. d. Elizabeth was bapt. 10 Jan. foll. In his rec. Eliot calls him Buckmaster; the resid. being at Muddy riv. Roxbury rec. contain no m. b. or d. tho. convenience of worship took him and his fam. to the ch. there. The wid; Elizabeth d. at Framingham, where her s. liv. from wh. by w. Martha, d. of John Sharp, m. 12 May 1686, descend the disting. stock of this name. THOMAS, Scituate, perhaps gr.s. of that Thomas, whose Almanac, comput. for 1599, in his 67th yr. is now bef. me, rem. to Boston, where on the ch. rec. of his adm. 4 Oct. 1645, "upon let. of dism. from the ch. of Scituate" (his w. Joan being rec.the same day), he is call. laborer; but the spell. in both cases is as in our day. Yet it is strange that Deane omits the name. He liv. at what is now Brookline, prob. worship. at Roxbury, where Hannah, bapt. 28 June 1646, may have been his d. and have d. young. He was freem. 1646, and d. 28 Sept. 1656; in his will of 2 Sept. pro. 23 Nov. in that yr. ment. w. Joanna, s. Zechariah, ds. Elizabeth w. of Thomas Spowell, Mary, w. of Henry (as Barry thinks was his name) Stevens, Dorcas, of Clement Corbin, or Corbett, s. Thomas, Joseph, and Jabez, d. Spowell's two ch., d. Stevens's two ch., d. Corbin's ch., Zechary's ch. and, last, d. Sarah. A s. Lawrence, prob. the eldest, had made his will, 27 Nov. 1645, bound to sea, perhaps d. bef. ret. as it was pro. 4 July after. He is presum. from it to have been unm. See Geneal. Reg. III. 178. Dorcas had m. 7 Mar. 1655, the same day with her br. Zechariah; and Sarah m. 30 Sept. 1657, John Lawrence. Jabez was prob. m. and d. Sept. 1686. The wid. m. 1 Sept. 1661, Edward Garfield of [[287]] Watertown. THOMAS, Boston, a carpenter, s. of the preced. d. Dec. 1659, leav. wid. Mary. Inv. of his est. amt. to £39. 16. ZECHARIAH, Boston, br. of the preced. m. 7 Mar. 1655, Sarah Webb, had prob. sev. ch. rem. among early sett. to Sherborn, there d. after 1691. His wid. Sarah d. at Roxbury 27 June 1704. BUCKMAN, JOSES, Malden, s. of William, by w. Judith Worth, m. 1 May 1673, had Samuel, b. Apr. 1674; Judith, 7 Aug. 1676; Sarah, 1680; Mary; Susanna, 8 Aug. 1685; William, 22 Feb. 1688; Edward, 22 May 1692; and Lydia, posthum. 23 Mar. 1695; and d. 24 Aug. 1694. But by a former w. prob. d. of George Knower, he had Joses, b. Jan. 1667; Hannah, Aug. 1669; and Elizabeth and prob. John. His wid. m. John Lynde. WILLIAM, Charlestown 1647, on the Mistick side, wh. bec. Malden, had by first w. only ch. John; and by sec. w.

Elizabeth m. Benjamin Whittemore, and d. 18 July 1726; Mercy m. 7 Dec. 1669, Benjamin Webb; Mehitable m. Samuel Waite; and Sarah m. 24 July 1676, Samuel Shattuck. WILLIAM, Malden, s. of the preced. m. 11 Oct. 1676, Hannah Waite, had no ch. and d. 17 Sept. 1693, giv. all his prop. to w. by his will. A John Buckman, perhaps the same name, was of Boston 1673, was prob. gr.ch. of Prudence Wilkinson, and of first William. Of him, I presume, it is, that Sewall, in his Diary, under 30 Oct. 1696, relates, that he had been perfectly dumb for eighteen yrs. and had his speech restor. It is almost certain that he was the first s. of the first William, wh. in his will, explain. why he gave him so small a portion was, bec. he had been infirm from early youth, and was tak. by his gr.mo. BUCKNELL, SAMUEL, Boston, m. 18 Sept. 1654, Sarah, d. of Nathaniel Bishop, had Sarah, b. 17 May 1655, wh. d. next yr; Nathaniel, 1 June 1659. BUCKNER, CHARLES, Dover, sch.master 1657, rem. in few yrs. to Boston, had w. Mary. BUDD, EDWARD, Boston 1668, and sev. yrs. bef. a carver. JOHN, New Haven 1639, liv. some yrs. at Southold, on L.

JONATHAN, New Haven 1643, had fam. of six, and rem. but to what place is unkn. BUDDINGTON, BODINGTON or BUDINGTON, WALTER, Stonington 1668, rem. to New London, and d. 1689, leav. no ch. but his nearest of kin was Walter, a neph. constable at N. L. 1695, on Groton side. BUDLEY, ANDREW, Ipswich, prob. s. of Giles of the same, m. 14 Mar. [[288]] 1682, Mary Conant, whose f. is not kn. but no doubt she was gr. d. of Roger the first, had Rebecca, b. 29 Mar. 1683; Andrew, 5 Apr. 1686, d. at 4 mos.; Martha, 3 Mar. 1692, d. next yr.; Andrew, again 15 June 1694; Martha, again, 28 Apr. 1696; Sarah, 6 Oct. 1698; and Elizabeth 25 Aug. 1700; but perhaps the mo. of this last was Rebecca. He d. 1 Feb. 1718, aged 60 yrs. Rebecca m. Robert Kinsman. GILES Ipswich 1648, of wh. we learn from his will of 18 July 1668, pro. 29 Sept. foll. most of the little we kn. that he left w. Elizabeth and ch. Andrew, b. 5 Sept. 1657; James, 10 Feb. 1660; and John, perhaps youngest, for he had Giles, 13 July 1662, wh. prob. d. bef. his f. JAMES, Ipswich, s. of the preced. m. 25 May 1685, Rebecca Stacey, perhaps d. of Thomas and she d. 21 Oct. 1686; but by w. Elizabeth he had William, b. 27 Feb. 1693; Joseph, 6 Apr. 1695; and Thomas, 5 Apr. 1697. Some confus. of this name with Burley occurs on the rec. wh. is also giv. in the Coll. catal. and it is seen, also, Birdley; yet in mod. times it is, I suppose, writ. Burleigh. BUDLONG, FRANCIS, Warwick, m. 19 Mar. 1669, Rebecca, wid. of Joseph Howard, d. prob. of John Lippit, and John, and other ch., bef. or after, or both, was k. with his w. and all the fam. exc. John, by the Ind. Nov. 1675, wh carr. John away, but soon restor. him. JOHN, Warwick, s. of the preced. had three s. John, Moses, and Daniel, wh. was less than 21 Yrs. old; beside ds. Rebecca Pierce, Mary Pierce, and Isabel, under 18 yrs. as we learn from his will of 4 Oct. 1731. He liv. to 1744. BUELL, PETER, Windsor, s. of William, rem. 1670 to Simbury, d. 8 Jan. 1729, had Samuel, Ephraim, William, and Jonathan, beside seven ds. He had sec. w. Mary, wid. of Jacob Bissell, but wh. was the first w. is unkn. or how many of his ch. were by her is uncert. yet as this w. was not m. bef. 1698, it is highly prob. that she was not mo. of all his ch. The ds. were Abigail, Martha, Mary, Sarah, Hannah, Miriam, and Esther. These are all nam. as well as w. in his will of 28 June bef. his d. but some were not liv. SAMUEL, Windsor, eldest br. of the preced. m. 13 Nov. 1662, Deborah Griswold, d. of Edward, and rem. to Killingworth, had, beside Samuel, b. 20 July 1663, at W. and at K. had Deborah, 18 Oct. 1665; Hannah, 6 Sept. 1667, d. young; Mary, 28 Nov. 1669; John, 17 Feb. 1672; Hannah, again, 4 May 1674; William, 18 Oct. 1676; David, 15 Feb. 1679; Josiah, 16 Mar. 1681; Mehitable, 22 Aug. 1682; Peter, 3 Dec. 1684; and Benjamin, 1686. His w. d. 7 Feb. 1719, and he d. 11 July 1720. WILLIAM, Windsor, one of the first. sett. by w.

[[289]] His will, of 26 July 1681, names the two s. and d. Mary, but refers to others; and the will of the wid. 29 Aug. 1684, names d. Mary Mills, m. 23 Feb. 1660; Sarah was d. unm. and Abigail is not nam. prob. d. young; Hannah m. 17 Sept. 1663, Timothy Palmer; Hepzibah m. 12 Jan. 1673, Thomas Welles of Hatfield. WILLIAM, Salisbury, but whether bef. or after Oct. 1650, I kn. not. He and his w. were at that time indict. in Plymouth col. as Bapt. Baylies, II. 211. BUFFINGTON, BENJAMIN, Salem, s. of Thomas, had Benjamin, b. 4 May 1699, and two other s. JOHN, Salem 1676. THOMAS, Salem spelt Bovanton, m. 30 Dec. 1671, Sarah Southwick, perhaps d. more prob. gr.d. of Lawrence of the same, had Thomas, b. 1 Mar. 1672; Benjamin, 24 July 1675; and Abigail, 25 July 1695. THOMAS, Salem, eldest s. of the preced. m. 28 Feb. 1699, Hannah Ross, had sev. ch. whose names are not seen. BUFFUM, CALEB, Salem, s. prob. of the first Robert, m. 26 Mar. 1672, Hannah, d. of the first Joseph Pope, had Caleb, b. 14 May 1673; and Robert, 1 Dec. 1675.

JOSHUA, Salem, eldest s. of Robert, perhaps br. of the preced. by w. Damaris, d. of Joseph Pope, had Joseph; was banish. 1659, on pain of d. Prob. the sentence could not be carr. into effect, but he went to Eng. and got security against such monstrous injust. ROBERT, Salem 1638, is said to have come from Yorksh. in 1634, but perhaps the yr. is too early, as Felt first saw ment. of him in 1638. Perhaps he was f. of all the preced. had w. Thomasin, and d.

BUMSTEAD, EDWARD, Boaton, freem. 13 May 1640, had Joseph, b. 1653. JEREMIAH, Boston, s. of Thomas, b. in Eng. by w. Hannah and Hannah, b. 24 Nov. 1664; Thomas, 22 Feb. 1667; Mary, 30 May 1668; Jeremiah, 25 Nov. 1670; and Sarah, 8 Sept. 1674. By sec. w.

THOMAS, Roxbury, as says the ch rec. "came to this ld. July 1640, brot. two small ch. Thomas, and Jeremiah," and adds, "his d. Hannah, b. 25 Jan. 1641," tho., town rec. has it, 20 Jan 1639. By w. Susanna he had Mary, bapt. at R. 24 Apr. 1642, and rem. to Boston, there had Joseph, bapt. 24 Nov. 1644, Òa. 7 days old;Ó Mercy, 20 Jan. 1650; and Joseph, again, 23 Oct. 1653; was of ar. co. 1647, and d. 22 June 1677.

His will of 25 May bef. his d. names ch Jeremy; Hannah, wh. m. 18 Apr. 1659, Thomas Shearer, or Sherwood; Mary, w. of Ambros Dawes; and Mercy, w. of Samuel Bosworth. BUNCE, THOMAS, Hartford 1636, serv. next yr. in the Pequot war, had, prob. by a d. of capt. Thomas Bull, under wh. he had act. in that war, ch. Thomas; John; Sarah, wh. n.

He liv. after, prob. at Taunton, there his d. Patience d. 27 Mar. 1665; and he had James, 29 Dec. 1664; and Sarah, 4 Mar. 1669. His w. d. 1 May 1674; and Mary m. 5 Jan. preced. unless the better date be 1675. JOHN, Taunton, s. perhaps, of the preced. m. 9 Jan. 1677, Ruth Surney of Mendham (unless so strange a name be writ. for Turney), had John, b. 6 Oct. foll.; Joseph, 1 Jan. 1680; and Edward, 13 Aug. 1681. SAMUEL, Taunton, perhaps br. of the preced. had Samuel, b. 4 Oct. 1670. BUNKER, BENJAMIN, Malden, s. of George, ord. 9 Dec. 1663, d. 2 Feb. 1670. That he well fill. his post of duty, tho. never m. (as seems to be essential to the charact. of a N. E. min.) we may be confid. for the long and lamenta. verses of his senior collea. Michael Wigglesworth, reveal no tendency to fiction. GEORGE, Charlestown 1634, freem. 4 Mar. 1635, as a support. of Wheelwright, he was disarm. Nov. 1637, yet in May foll. the Gen. Court made him constable of C. and by the end of [[299]] a yr. he had gr. from the same power of fifty acres, so we may not doubt, that he was convinc. of the errors in doctrine that had misled him. By w. Judith (wh. prob. he brot. from Eng. with his s. John) he had Beenjamin, bapt. 20 Sept. 1635, H. C. 1658, bef. ment.; Jonathan, 8 Apr. 1638; and she d. 10 Oct. 1646. For sec. w. he took Margaret, wid. of deac. Edward Howe of Watertown, and he d. in 1664 or 5, for 4 Oct. of that latter yr. was pro. his will, made 12 May preced. In latter yrs. he rem. to Malden, but he own. bef. and after, the summit of that hill of glory bear. his nam. His eldest s. John, with the other two d. ds. Mary, Martha, and Elizabeth surv.

At the date of his d. the ch. were Elizabeth aged 12; William, 10; Mary, 6; Ann, 4; and Martha, 1 and 1/2. His wid. soon m. Richard Swain, went to Nantucket with those ch. and she d. 31 Oct. 1662, the earliest, in rec. of d. on that isl. Elizabeth m. Thomas Look; Mary m. Stephen Coffin, Ann m. Joseph Coleman; and Martha m. 8 Oct. 1676, Stephen Hussey. JAMES, Dover 1653, had James, and perhaps Joseph, and John, and d. 1698. JOHN, Malden, eldest s. of George the first, b. in Eng. a. 1632, m. 16 Sept. 1655, Hannah Miller, had Hannah, b. Oct. 1656, d. young; Mary, 29 Dec. 1658; John, Jan. 1661, d. in few days; John, again, May 1662; Edward; and Joseph, Feb. 1666; and d. 10 Sept. 1672; in his will, made the same day, names eldest s. John, eldest d. Mary, s. Edward, and Joseph, and d. Hannah, wh. m. 2 May 1689, as his sec. w. Samuel Newman of Rehoboth. JOHN, Portsmouth or Dover, s. of James, was one of the many wh. in 1690, desir. Mass. jurisdict. tro be stretch. over N. H. JONATHAN, Charlestown, s. of George of the same, m. 30 Jan. 1663, Mary Howard, perhaps wid. of Nathaniel Hayward or Howard, d. of the Rev. Thomas Gould, and d. 2 June 1678, as tells the gr. stone, but town rec. says 1677. He prob. had fam. yet not to be found on rec. WILLIAM, Topsfield, s. of George of the same, was nam. for his gr.f. in Eng. and after d. of his d. and m. of his mo. again, was carr. by her to Nantucket in 1658, m. 11 Apr. 1669, Mary, d. of Thomas Macy, founder of that settlem. had George, b. 22 Apr. 1671; John, 23 July 1673; Jonathan, 25 Feb. 1675; Peleg, 1 Dec. 1676; Jabez, 7 Nov. 1678; Thomas, 8 Apr. 1680; and Benjamin, 28 May 1683; and d. 26 June 1712. BUNN, or BUNNE, EDWARD, Hull, had, prob. by first w. that d. Elizabeth wh. m. Oct. 1673, Joseph Howe of Boston; but for sec. w. m. 20 Aug. 1657, Elizabeth Mason; and d. soon after mak. his will of 14 Apr. 1673, in wh. he names only w. Elizabeth cous. Sarah, James Mason, and Samuel Lee. He was one of the earliest sett. of Nantasket, his right being ackn. in 1642, bef. it got the name of Hull. MATTHEW, Hull, by w. Esther had Matthew, b. 9 June 1659; Nathaniel, 23 Mar. 1664; and Esther, 2 Nov. 1665. It had been sometimes thot. that this name was the same as [[300]] Binney; but no evidence appears. The fam. of two syl. was early at the same town, and it may be that some ambitious possessor of the shorter name may have stretch. it. BUNNILL, BENJAMIN, New Haven, took o. of fidel, 7 Apr. 1657, was, s. of William, and a propr. 1685, had eleven ch. names unkn. and d. 1696. Porter writes me, that by w. Rebecca Mallory, wh. d. 12 Mar. 1691, he had Rebecca, b. 19 Jan. 1668, d. in a wk.; Rebecca, again, 11 Feb. 1669; Judith, 13 Apr. 1672; Benjamin, 4 Jan. 1676, d. in few days; Ann, 8 Jan. 1678, d. young; Benjamin, again, 29 Nov. 1679; Hezekiah, 23 Mar. 1682; Rachel, 16 Dec. 1683; Nathaniel, May 1686; Israel, 12 Mar. 1690; and his sec. w. Elizabeth wid. of John Sperry, bore him Ann, 11 Oct. 1695; and his wid. m. 19 Sept. 1700, Edmund Dorman. NATHAN, New Haven, br. of the preced. m. 3 Jan. 1667, Susanna Whitehead, eldest d. of Isaac. WILLIAM, New Haven, an early inhab. had Benjamin; Nathan; Lydia; Mary, b. 4 May 1650; and Ebenezer, 25 Aug. 1653, by w. Ann, d. of Benjamin Wilmot, wh. in his will of 7 Aug. 1669, speaks of the four ch. of his d. as heirs of pt. of his small est. so that it may be inf. that both d. and h. with one of the ch. were d. BURBANK, CALEB, Rowley 1691, may have been s. of John. JOHN, Rowley, freem. 13 May 1640, in his will of 5 Apr. 1681 (as Coffin finds, Geneal. Reg. VI. 245), names w. Jemima, ch. John, Caleb, and Lydia. JOHN, Haverhill, perhaps s. of the preced. m. 15 Oct. 1663, Susanna, d. of Nathaniel Merrill, rem. a. 1680 with sev. ch. to Suffield, where his w. d. 1690; and tho. he had sec. and third w. yet no more ch. The name is that neighb. is com. JOSEPH, came, 1635, in the Abigail from London, aged 24, when at the custom ho. it was writ. Borebancke; but where he sat down is unkn. BURBEEN, JOHN, Woburn, a tailor, came from Scotland, it is said, m. 16 Apr. 1660, Sarah Gould, had Mary, b. 2 July 1661; John, 9 Aug. 1663; James, 15 May 1668; and perhaps no more, for his w. d. 14 May 1670. He d. 8 Jan. 1714. Joseph, and Paul, gr. at H. C. of the yrs. 1731 and 1743, liv. to advanc. age, yet prob. this name is extinct in N. E. BURCH, GEORGE, Salem, by w.

JOSEPH, Dorchester 1671. BURCHALL, NATHAN, New Haven 1643, serv. of Robert Newman, sw. to fidel. 5 Aug. 1644. BURCHAM, EDWARD, Lynn, 1636, frem. 14 Mar. 1639, was clk. of the writs 1645, went home 1656, and I kn. not whether he came back. His d. Frances m. 8 June 1660, Isaac Willy. Twice in Hist. Coll. of the Essex Inst. I. pp. 5 and 10, this name is giv. Burthum, and this error is more observa. on account of the gen. accura. of Mr. Patch. Often the letter c in the old engross. hand resembles our modern t. Suspicion aris. also, that the same man may be passing under the name of Beacham, wh. see. BURCHARD, or BURCHER, EDWARD, Plymouth, came in the Ann, 1623, perhaps had w. as two sh. in div. of ld. next spr. were giv. but he d. or rem. for in div. of cattle, 1627, he took no pt. THOMAS, see Birchard. BURCHSTED, JOHN HENRY, Lynn, a German physician from Silesia, says Lewis, 134, m. 24 Apr. 1690, Mary, wid. of Nathaniel Kirtland, had Henry, b. 3 Oct. foll. and d. 20 Sept. 1721, aged 64. The s. foll. the same profess. but I kn. no more of him. BURDEN, FRANCIS, Portsmouth, R. I. among freem. 1655. GEORGE, Boston, shoemaker, came in the Abigail 1635, aged 20, was adm. of the ch. 9 Jan. 1637, and freem. 17 May foll. next Nov. disarm. for heresy, [[301]] yet not driv. away, by w. Ann had Thomas, b. 1 Apr. 1637, d. very soon; Elisha, bapt. 3 Feb. 1639; Ezekiel, b. 25 Mar. 1641; Joseph, and Benjamin, tw. b. 21 Apr. 1643, both d. soon, but Joseph was bapt. 30 of that mo.; Hannah, 4 May 1645, "a. 20 days old;" and prob. others. At Braintree he had lot, 1639, for five heads, so that he must have had two serv. of apprent. But he went home with w. and ch. after mak. his will 15 Oct. 1652, wh. was pro. here 30 Apr. 1657. ROBERT, Lynn, m. a. 1650, Hannah, d. of William Witter, if we obey the authority of Coffin in Geneal. Reg. VI. 245, or Hist. Coll. of Essex Inst. I. 1659; but both names are wrong there, Witter means Winter, and Burden stands for Burditt, wh. see. Greater mistakes may be seen in other copies from early rec. by other collectors. WILLIAM, Duxbury, or Marshfield, is well seen in Barden. BURDICK, or BURDICT, BENJAMIN, Westerly, s. of Robert of the same, in his will of 25 Spr. 1736, names w. Jane, and s. Peter, Benjamin, John, David, William, Elisha, ds. Mary Lewis, and Rachel Sisson. ROBERT, Newport, made freem. 22 May 1655; rem. to Westerly bef. 1661, m. Ruth d. of Samuel Hubbard of N. had Robert, Hubbard, Thomas, Benjamin, and Samuel, beside Naomi, wh. m. Jonathan Rogers; Tacy, wh. m. Joseph Maxon; Ruth, wh. m. John Phillips; and Deborah, wh. m. Joseph Crandall; and d. 1692. THOMAS, Westerly 1680, s. of Robert. This name is oft. confound. with Burditt. BURDITT, or BURDETT, GEORGE, Salem 1635, came from Yarmouth Co. Norfk. where by pop. elect. he had preach. two yrs. but leav. w. and childr. at home in distress, was in gr. esteem at S. freem. 2 Sept. 1635, had gr. of ld. and preach. there near two yrs. and in 1637 or 8, went to Dover, there had much quarrel, and thence to York, and was forced to go home at last. Winthrop is large in reprobat. of him, Hubbard is strong; and the crim. proceed. of Cts. under GorgesÕ governm. for adultery and other charges, make it plain that N. E. was not the right place for him. ROBERT, Malden, m. Nov. 1653, Hannah Winter, had Thomas, b. Sept. 1655; Hannah, Nov. 1656; Joseph; Mary; Sarah; and Ruth, in May 1666; and he d. 16 June of next yr. by will of the same day ment. the w. and ch. and provid. also for ano unb. THOMAS, Malden, eldest s. of the preced. by w. Hannah had Thomas, b. 13 Jan. 1683; Elizabeth 19 Aug. 1686, d. young; Elizabeth again, 28 Aug. 1688; and by w. Elizabeth had Mary, 25 Dec. 1690; and John, 8 May 1693. His w. d. 26 Jan. 1718, aged a. 65, and he d. 20 Jan. 1729, in 74th yr. by gr.stone. BURDSALL, HENRY, Salem, freem. 2 May 1638, d. 1651. Perhaps the name is Burchal in the Essex Inst. Hist. Coll. I. 39; and prob. he was f. of that Judith B. wh. m. Henry Cooke of S. June 1639. BURDSIE, the same as Birdseye; and here I supply some deficiency in that article. The contr. of m. with Alice, wid. of Henry Tomlinson, to wh. in his will JOHN B. refers, was of 8 Oct. 1688. He d. 4 Apr. 1690, aged 74. By his first w. Phillis he had John, b. at Stratford, Mar. 1641, and [[302]] Joanna, Nov. 1642. So it is clear, that he rem. from Milford to S. earlier by some yrs. than Trumbull, in his Hist. suppos. Joanna m. 28 Dec. 1664, Timothy Wilcockson. JOHN, Stratford, s. of the preced. m. 11 Dec. 1669, d. prob. youngest, of William Wilcockson, had Hannah, b. Feb. 1671; Mary, Nov. 1675; Mary, May 1678, d. next yr.; Abel, Nov. 1679; Joseph, Feb. 1682; and Dinah, 1688. He d. 1697, and his wid. d. 20 Sept. 1743, aged 92. Joseph was f. of Rev. Nathan, wh. was b. 8 Aug. 1714, so that the venerable man was a little older than was said in my acco. of Birdseye. BURFEE, EDMUND, Boston, had w. Mary, wh. d. 15 Aug. 1658. Burges, Giles, Dorchester 1682. JACOB, Sandwich, s. of Thomas the first, m. 1 June 1660, Mary Nye, d. prob. of Benjamin of the same, had Samuel, b. 8 Mar. 1671; Ebenezer, 2 Oct. 1673; and Jacob, 18 Oct. 1676. JOHN, Chelmsford, m. 9 June 1662, Mary, wid. of Isaac Larned, eldest d. of Isaac Stearns, as Allen, Hist. of C. 169, tells; and in June 1676, m. Jane, wid. of John Gornell, wh. d. 4 Apr. 1678; and he d. 22 Oct. foll. JOHN, Yarmouth, s. of the first Thomas, m. 8 Sept. 1657, Mary Worden, prob. d. of Peter the sec. of the same, had John, Thomas, Joseph, Samuel, Jacob, Martha and four other ds. JOSEPH, Sandwich, br. prob. youngest, of the preced. had Rebecca, b. 17 Jan. 1667; Dorothy, 12 Nov. 1670, wh. d. prob. at 16 yrs.; Joseph, 18 Nov. 1673; and Benjamin, 5 May 1681. *THOMAS, Lynn, rem. 1637, to Sandwich, with fam. there may have add. to the ch. carr. with him only Joseph, and perhaps Jacob. He was of the chief men, rep. 1646 and after; d. 27 Feb. 1685, presum. to be 82 yrs. old. His d. Elizabeth m. 12 Feb. 1652, Ezra Perry. THOMAS, Sandwich, s. prob. eldest, of the preced. perhaps b. in Eng. m. 8 Nov. 1648, Elizabeth Basset, d. of William, one of the first comers, was divorc. 10 June 1661, and rem. to R.

One FRANCIS, possib. his s. was of Moselye's comp. in the campaign of Dec. 1675. James Boston, came prob. in the Hopewell, capt. Bundocke, from London 1635, aged 14, m. 19 Oct. 1652, Lydia Mead, d. of Gabriel, had John, b. 1654; Benjamin, 1655; John again, 21 Feb. 1657; and d. 27 Nov. 1690. JOHN, Yarmouth 1678, is prob. mistak. for Burge. JOSEPH, Rochester, possib. misspel. for Burge, was first rep. for that town in one of the last Gen. Cts. of Plymouth, i. e. 1689. RICHARD, Sandwich 1643, as Coffin thinks, rem. to York 1660. RICHARD, Stratford, m. Phebe, d. of John Peacock, bef. 1679. ROBERT, Lynn 1655, m. 12 Apr. 1671, Sarah Hall. ROGER, Boston, had w.

ROGER, Haverhill, old eno. 28 Nov. 1677, to take o. of alleg. on enrolm. in the milit. THOMAS, Duxbury 1637, next yr. rem. to Sandwich, was rep. 1646, and one or two yrs. more,was f. of Thomas, &c. as under Burge is told. THOMAS, Concord, 1660, had liv. at Charlestown. His will, of 9 Aug. 1662, was not brot. to pro. by his w. for near twenty yrs. Of this name, in 1834, gr. at Brown and Yale have been five, and none at Harv. or Dart. yet two at H. and one at D. as monosyl. Burge, and no such at Yale. Hon. Tristram, Brown 1796, may desc. from Joseph, at least, was b. at Rochester. Very num. are the cases of modern turn. of one syl. to two. BURKBY, THOMAS, Rowley 1643. BURKE, James, Hingham. See Buck. RICHARD, Concord, had gr. of ld. 1686, at Stow, m. at Northampton, 1 Sept. 1687, perhaps as sec. w. Sarah, wid. of Nehemiah Allen, d. of Thomas Woodford, had John, b 19 July 1689; but he had s.

Mary m. 19 Dec. 1689, Amos Stafford, liv. 72 yrs. with him, had thirteen ch. as is said, was b. six days aft. him, and d. at equal distance, aged 97, some part of wh. may be true, but the newspaper that ment. his (Stafford's) d. at 97, makes the wid. 92. Five yrs. discrepency in a tradit. is not of high import. See Geneal. Reg. VIII. 368. THOMAS, Warwick, or Kingstown, s. of Roger, m. Martha, d. of Moses Lippit, as from wills of her f. and h. is gain. but I profit no more. BURLISSON, EDWARD, Suffield 1677, had John, Fearnot, b. 18 Dec. 1679, Return Mary, and Edward, and d. 1698. FEARNOT, Windsor, s. of the preced. m. 8 Feb. 1705, Elizabeth Buckland, perhaps d. of Timothy, had Esther, b. 15 Feb. 1706; Daniel, 30 Dec. 1707; Elizabeth 2 July 1709; Ebenezer, 8 May 1711; Job, 7 Aug. 1714; Daniel, again, 7 Mar. 1718; and Mary, 3 Mar. 1721. The name appears with varied spell. sometimes losing the last syl. BURMAN, THOMAS, Barnstable, in his will of 9 May 1663, makes his w. Hannah extrix. names s. Thomas, Tristram, Samuel; ds.

BURNAP, ISAAC, Reading, s. of Robert, m. 8 Nov. 1658, Hannah Antram, perhaps d. of Thomas, had Isaac, wh. is ment. in the will of his gr.f.

JOHN, Reading, freem. 1691, as were JOSEPH, ROBERT, and THOMAS, all at the same time, of the same town. ROBERT, Reading, had, I think, been of Roxbury, whither he brot. from Eng. Thomas, b. a. 1624, and Richard, 1627, [[304]] both, perhaps, liv. 1682. But the name in rec. of Roxbury, when he lost an inf. ch. 18 Nov. 1642, is Burnet, tho. it appears not again. The w. was there Margaret Davis; But by w. Ann at Reading he had Sarah, b. 5 Nov. 1653; Robert, 28 Feb. 1658; and Mary, 17 June 1661; and this w. d. eight days after, and he took ano. w. 28 May 1662, Sarah.

TOBIAS, Portsmouth, came from Alphington, Co. Devon, went in Sept. 1673, to Barbados, and d. soon. WILLIAM, Boston, had John, Samuel, and Sarah, and the dispos. of his est. at Pulling Point, appears in his will of 16 Apr. 1660, abstr. in Geneal. Reg. IX. 230, and it is curious to collate this with an earlier will of 5 Mar. of the same yr. in Geneal. Reg. X. 270, brot. our by the exampl. dilig. of Mr. Trask. Both have refresh. evid. of his dread of Quakers. Yet a scruple is felt whether that will of Mar. were not a later draft; if the legal reckon. of the yr. be foll. it must be so thot. and it was incomplete for want of witness. Hard is it, often to disting. this name from Burnett. BURNETT, or BURNIT, JOHN, Charlestown, m. 7 Apr. 1684, Mary Rice of Reading. ROBERT, Roxbury, may be Burnap, wh. see.

Nov. foll. to preach. at Salem vill. now Danvers, and there had Elizabeth bapt. 4 June 1682; but in a. two yrs. went E. to his former flock, certain,. was at F. 1683; and it may be fear. that dissatisf. at his leav. Danvers was a moving cause of his unhappy fate. On the sec. sack. of Casco by the Ind. 1690, he was again driv. to the W. and preach. at Wells, until a worse enemy, the gr. adversary, assail. him. He was arrest. in Apr. at W. and brot. to Salem, where the gaol was soon too full of these harmless victims; but on 8 May 1692, he was sent to Boston, charg. with offence of witcher. dept nine wks. in prison, tried 3 Aug. at Salem, and by Ct. unduly organiz. condemn. in few days, and hang. on 19 of that mo.

This was the last, as well as the first, instance of such barbar. inflict. Mather was not, I think, present to witness this triumph over the devil in thee enforc. silence of his victim by the ministers of the law. Had the sheriff invit. his aid, perhaps he would have declin. the advantage; and we can hardly doubt, that the fact of the other sufferer being a min. and s. of thee doll. in wh. the f. of M. then sat as Presid. exclud. all undue feel. of tenderness in many of the spectators, especial. in him wh.

May 1651, a Huet, perhaps d. of Thomas of Hingham, had Jeremiah, b. 1652; John, 1653; Elizabeth 1655; and Mary, 1657; and d. 1660. JEREMIAH, Scituate, eldest s. of the preced. had Jeremiah, but wh. was the w. or date of m. or b. of s. or d. of either h. or w. is not seen. JOHN, Salem 1637, was from Yarmouth, a cooper, com. that yr. in the Mary Ann, aged 28, with w. Ann, 40, unless the Westminster rec. from custom ho. of Y. be wrong. JOHN, New Haven 1644, may be the same as him of Newtown, L.I. 1656. JOHN, New London, s. of Robert, m. 14 Dec. 1670, Mary, d. of John Culver, had John, b. 2 Sept. 1671; Mary, 14 Dec. 1672; Hannah, 9 Oct. 1674; Margaret, 5 Oct. 1677; Samuel, 5 Oct. 1679; Robert, 9 Sept. 1681; and Abigail, 10 Aug. 1682.

His success. spell. Burroughs, and most of the foregoing have, at times, done the same. WILLIAM, Providence 1641, came, perhaps, in the Susan and Ellen, 1635, aged 19, was among freem. 1655, and liv. 1663, but w. or ch. are unkn. BURSELL, or BURSTALL, JAMES, Yarmouth 1643, d.

BURT, BENJAMIN, Deerfield, s. of David, m. 19 Oct. 1702, Sarah, d. of Daniel Belden, had Jonathan, and perhaps other s. DAVID, Northampton, s. of Henry, b. in Eng. one of the first sett. at N. m. 18 Nov. 1655, Mary, d. of deac.

Elizabeth d. of George Bunker, had Mary, b. 28 Sept. 1657; and got a patent to make salt, grant. 1652, for ten yrs. by our Gen. Ct. GEORGE, Lynn 1635, d. 2 Nov. 1661, leav. George, wh. went to Sandwich; Hugh; and Edward, bef. ment. Lewis. HENRY, Roxbury, had his ho. burn. for wh. loss the Gen. Ct. made a gr. to the town of L8. in Nov. 1639; rem. to Springfield next yr. was there clk. of the writs (tho. rec. of the b. of his own ch. is not found), and d. 30 Apr. 1662. His wid.

The four last nam. of these eight ds. of course, were b. after his rem. to S. and in neither rec. of town nor ch. at R. is his name to be seen. A tradit. is preserv. that the mo. of these ch. "was laid our for d. in Eng. put into the coffin, but signs of life appear. at her funer. she recov. came to N. E. sett. at S. and here had nineteen ch." What degr. of credit may be yeild. to this acco. quot. from Dr. Stiles, wh. was avery benign. in hear. such chronicles, may well be ask. but the answer will prob. depend on the spirit. educat. and habits of the respond. HENRY, Northampton, s. of David, m. 1684, Elizabeth d. of Alexander Alvord, had only Joseph, b. 1 Dec. 1685; and Elizabeth 2 May 1687, both mo. and ch. d. in few days. He m. 9 Dec. foll. Hannah, d. of Henry Denslow of Windsor, had Samuel, b. 8 Sept. 1688, wh. with the mo. d. next yr. and by third w.

HENRY, Springfield, s. of the first Jonathan, had for sec. w. 4 Apr. 1716 (the first being unkn. to me, as, also, is the point, whether she had issue) Deborah, wid. of Benjamin Alvord, d. of John Stebbins. HUGH, Lynn, br. of George, came, prob. in the Abigail 1635, aged 35, with w. Ann, 32, and Hugh, [[314]] 15; and Edward, 8, perhaps his nephs. His will. of Dec. 1650, pro. 21 of same, leaves some uncert. what HUGH he was, that was call. 70 yrs. old, or thereabouts, on giv. evidence Mar. 1661; for one, call. of Lynn, jr. prob. s. of George, had Mary, b. 21 July 1647; and made his will 7 Oct. 1661, d. 21 of next mo. But the s. d. bef. his f. wh. ment. ch. of his s. Hugh dec. as Mary and Sarah. JAMES, Newport, 1639. JAMES, Taunton, prob. s. of Richard, had w. Ann, wh. d. 17 Aug. 1665. Ano. JAMES of Taunton d. 10 June 1743, says the gr.stone, "aged a. 84 yrs." and the same evid. commemo.l ano. James, perhaps his s. as d. 29 Mar. 1774, in 88th yr. This name is well perpet. JOHN, Springfield 1639, rem. soon. JONATHAN, Springfield, eldest s. of Henry, b. in Eng. m. at Boston, 1651, Elizabeth Lobdell, had Elizabeth b. 29 Dec. 1652, wh. m. 29 Jan. 1673, Vicary Sikes; Joanthan, 12 Sept. 1654; Sarah, 4 Sept. 1656, wh. m. 1675, Benjamin Dorchester, and, next, 1677, Luke Hitchcock; John, 23 Aug. 1658; Mercy, 7 Aug. 1661, wh. d. at 22 yrs. and HENRY, 11 Dec. 1663; was a man of note, and deac. His w. d. 11 Nov. 1684, and he m. 14 Dec. 1686, Deliverance, wid. of Thomas Hanchet, and d. 19 Oct. 1715. NATHANIEL. Springfield, younger br. of the preced. m. 15 Jan. 1663, Rebecca, perhaps d. of Richard Sikes, had Nathaniel, b. 18 Jan. 1664; Rebecca, 20 Dec. 1665; David, 20 May 1668; John, 23 Aug. 1670; Sarah, 17 July 1673, d. soon; Sarah, again, Apr. 1675; Experience, 23 Jan. 1678, and Dorcas, 20 Feb. 1681. His w. d. 28 Jan. 1712, and he d. 29 Sept. 1720. His resid. was in that pt. now Longmeadow. RICHARD, Taunton, one of the purch. 1639, was d. bef. 1675, had Ricahrd and prob. James. Charity, w. or wid. of the younger, or elder Richard, d. 3 June 1711. Baylies, I. 286, and II. 270 and 8. ROGER, Cambridge, by w. Susan had Samuel, b. 6 Feb. 1643. THOMAS, Salem, m. 18 Nov.l 1672, Mary Southwick, but whose d. or wid. she was, is unkn. WILLIAM, Charlestown, one of capt. Moseley's comp. k. 19 Dec. 1675, in the gr. Narraganset fight. From the diverse spell. of t his man's name, in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 242, and from Drake's Hist. of Boston, 414, where it i giv. Bourle, some puzzle is rais. but whichever be correct, we kn. that Charlestown had but a single William on the roster for that campaign, and either form is not great pervers. Of this name, Farmer counts at N. E. and Union, and N. J. coll. fifteen gr. in 1834. BURTON, BONIFACE, Lynn, 1630, freem. 6 May 1635, d. 13 June 1669, "being a hundred and fifteen yrs. old," says John Hull's Diary, print. in the Transact. of the Amer. Antiq. Soc. III. 229, yet liable to a false construct. of the date. Of course, we doubt, some exaggera. is here; and in one of Sewall's interleav. Almanacs, that for 1673, two yrs. are deduct. as in Hutch. I. 269. Nearer to contempo. evid. must be the Dairy, yet his s.-in-law overcame his usual reverence for "father Hull," and he would not (with his habitual fondness for finding cases of [[315]] longev.) have subtract. a week without appar. authority. Had he boldly struck off a dozen more yrs. skeptics would agree or would rejoice with him. Yet B. was the oldest man, says Lewis, fondly, wh. ever liv. in Lynn. This kindly affect. writer, in a generat. nearer to his won, enjoy. the finding of a black woman of equal age in the same happy town. Well stricken in yrs. at his com. over, must Burton seem, and prob. he brot. some fam. or at least had little progeny here; and careful scrunity proves, in many such instances, that peop. past mid. life, after reach our shores, grew old very fast. BONIFACE, Boston, perhaps s. perhaps gr.s. of the preced. d. 1667, from whose will, nam. only w. Frances, we infer, that he left no ch. and kn. that he gave nothing to the centenary, but that his largest bequest was ten shillings to Increase Mather. It is possib. that the testator was that very aged Lynn man, and the only one of so uncom. name. EDWARD, Charlestown 1633, rem. prob. to Hingham, there had gr. of ld. 1647, and d. bef. 1675, when convey. of it was giv. by his ch. of wh. I see no more. JOHN, Salem, a tanner, from 1637 to 1684, when he d. hav. been worried for a Quaker, 1659, 60 and 1. See Felt. RICHARD, Charlestown, was exempt. in Oct. 1675, as one of the ferrymen, from milit. impressm. SOLOMON, Stratford, m. Aug. 1687, Mercy, d. of Jeremiah Judson, had ch. whose names and dates are unkn., but descend. contin. STEPHEN, Swanzey 1683, m. 4 Sept. 1684, Elizabeth only d. of Gov. Josiah Winslow, and strange is it, that we kn. so little of him. Prob. he was s. of Thomas, had for first w. Abigail, d. of Gov. William Brenton of R. I. and in 1680 he join. with John Walley, Nathaniel Byfield, and Nathaniel Oliver, men of large est. and distinct. in purch. the Mount Hope est. seat of the gr. Sachem, Philip, from the Col. of Plymouth, assum. as fruit of their conq. and sett. Bristol. Next yr. he was made constable at Boston, with Paul Dudley, Adam Winthrop, Edward Raynsford, and Giles Dyer. THOMAS, Hingham 1640, m. Margaret, d. of John Otis, had Hannah, bapt. 30 May 1641; Phebe, 12 May 1644; Ruth, Aug. 1646, d. next yr. and Sarah, 13 May 1649; but it is said, that his d. Martha m. William Brenton, and if so, then she was by a former w. prob. b. in Eng. He was one of thee gr. disturbers of our political state, as in Winth, Hist. II. 262, 302, may be read. Very curious manifesto of our Gen. Ct. contain. in the glorious Coll. of Hutch. 212, alludes to him as "an old grocer of London," and his perversity is imput. to "his age and some other infirmitites." This hardly consists with the dignity of a legislature; and had the docum. been prepar. by the Assist. they might have ascrib. his heretical pravity in so facatious desire of religious liberty to long resid. at Newport after 1639. WILLIAM. Warwick, m. Ann, or Hannah, d. of John Wicks, had Susanna, wh. m. 11 Dec. 1684, sec. Samuel Gorton. Elder, and perhaps younger ch. he had, as Elizabeth wh. m. 30 Oct. 1674, Thomas Hedger; Hannah, m. a Carpenter; John, b. 2 [[316]] May 1667; Elkanah, of wh. all that is told is his m. of a Clark; and Rose, wh. m. a Fowler. Yet a sec. w. Isabel (d. of John Potter). long surv. him, and may have been mo. of one or more. His will was pro. 25 June 1714. BURWELL, JOHN, Milford 1639, had Samuel, bapt. 11 Oct. 1640; Ephraim, 19 May 1644; Nathan, 1646; and Elizabeth 1647; but he had, bef. com. to M. s. John, and Zechariah, perhaps both b. in Eng. and d. 17 Aug. 1649. He was from Co. Herts, left wid. Alice, wh. m. next yr. Joseph Peck from New Haven, a single man, and she d. 19 Dec. 1666. JOHN, Milford, s. of the preced. had John, and two other ch. without name, and d. 1665. JOHN, Branford, as Porter suggests, wh. d. 9 Aug. 1680, had five ch. by the first w. and by Benedicta, the sec. w. had three more, but names are not giv. exc. of John, and Elizabeth wh. m. the sec. Eleazer Stent. JOHN, Branford, s. of the preced. by w. Hannah had Hannah, call. 5 and 1/2 yrs. old, and John, 3 and 1/2, when the inv. aft. d. of f. was brot. in, 20 Mar. 1691. NATHAN, Milford, br. of the preced. m. 14 Jan. 1674, Temperance, d. of Richard Baldwin, had Alice, b. Dec. foll. and Temperance, bapt. 1676. SAMUEL. br. of the preced. m. perhaps, Sarah, d. of the first Benjamin Fenn, had Sarah, bapt. 1663; Samuel, 1665, d. soon; Samuel, again, 1667; Joseph, 1676; and John, 1678; tho. possib. this last may have been s. of Nathan. He was among proprs. of New Haven 1685, as print. in Geneal. Reg. I. 157, but ano. copy of that list gives the name Bunnill, and I fear it has not seldom bec. Burrill in print. Ano. SAMUEL, New Haven 1685, was younger and m. Rebecca, d. of Benjamin Bunnell, had Ann, b. 30 Dec. 1685; and eleven other ch. as Porter writes, without giv. the names. ZECHARIAH, Milford, s. of the first John, m. 1663, Elizabeth Baldwin, but from the gr. host of that name, I am unable to select a f. for her. He soon rem. to Newark, N. J. BUSBY, ABRAHAM, Boston, linen-weaver, s. of Nicholas, freem. 1650, ar. co. 1647, m. 23 Sept. 1659, perhaps as sec. w. Abigail, wid. of Joseph Briscoe, and d. 20 Mar. 1687. NICHOLAS, Watertown, weaver, came from old Norwich to Boston 20 June 1637, then aged 50, with w. Bridget 53, and four ch. Nicholas, John, Abraham, and Sarah, was freem. Mar. 1638, selectman 1640, and 41, rem. to Boston 1646, constable there 1649, and d. 28 Aug. 1657. His will of 25 July preced. giv. "all his books of physic" to eldest s. John, adds that he was then in Eng. all his books of divintiy to Abraham, also ment. eldest d. Ann, w. of William Nickerson of Boston, weaver; d. Catharine Savory; youngest d. of Sarah, w. of John Grout of Sudbury, wh. has been w. of Thomas Cakebread; and his gr.s. Joseph, s. of Nicholas, wh. was d. His w. Bridget surv. him 3 or 4 yrs. NICHOLAS, Boston, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. m. 1652, Martha, d. of John Cheney, the young wid. of Anthony Sadler, had Joseph, and d. bef. his f. BUSH, EDWARD, Salem, m. 17 Oct. 1665, Mary Hyde (spell. on the rec. Hidz, inmost scrupul. conform. with sound), had Edward, b. 2 Sept. 1667, d. in few mos. Again he m. 1 Aug. 1678, young wid. Elizabeth Pitman, wh. long surv. had Elizabeth b. 30 Apr. foll.; Edward, again, 1 Mar. 1682, d. soon; Ann, 25 Feb. 1683; Benjamin, 7 May 1685; Edward, again, 2 Aug. 1687; Estwick, 22 Mar. 1689, d. young; and Estwick, [[317]] again, 14 May 1693. JOHN, Cambridge, took o. of fidel. 1652, by w. Elizabeth had Joseph, b. 16 Aug. 1654; Elizabeth 14 Aug. 1657; Daniel, 4 Apr. 1659; Abiah, 2 Mar. 1661; and Mary, 17 Nov. 1662; and d. 1 Jan. 1663. JOHN, Wells, constable 1654, allow. to preach in 1662. JONATHAN, Springfield 1678, Enfield 1685, had ch. b. in both towns. JOSEPH, Newton, prob. s. of John, by w. Hannah had Lydia, b. 14 Sept. 1692; and Zechariah, 26 Sept. 1696; perhaps Joseph; and d. 1723. His wid. d. 1736. RENOLD, RANDALL, or RANDOLPH, Cambridge 1641, liv. on S. side of the riv. now Brighton, may have had w. and ch. but no certainty is attain. SAMUEL, Suffield 1679, Springfield 1686, at Westfield, by w. Mary, wh. d. 2 Aug. 1687, had Ebenezer, b. 9 days preced. and by sec. w. had Abigail, 12 June 1705; and he d. 7 May 1733. Of this name, in 1834, three had been gr. at Yale, and three at Dart. none at Harv. as Farmer saw. BUSHELL, EDWARD, Boston, was a merch. 1676. A Ruth B. wh. came, at the age of 23, in the Abigail 1635, m. next yr. Edward Mitchelson of Cambridge. BUSHNEALL, FRANCIS, Guilford 1639, d. 1646, had brot. from Eng. s. Francis, and d. Rebecca, that m. John Lord of Hartford, and d. very soon after her f. FRANCIS, Saybrook, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. had Samuel, and five ds. as is said; but I presume that Elizabeth wh. m. 2 July 1651, William Johnson, and Martha, wh. m. 1 Jan. 1664, Jonathan Smith of Wethersfield, are all that are kn. He was deac. and had favor of the Ind. (as in the will of Joshua, s. of Uncas, 1677, giv. him and others large tract of ld. is pro.) d. 4 Dec. 1681, aged 81. FRANCIS, Salem 1639, may be that carpenter, com. in the Planter, 1635, aged 26, with w. Mary, 26, and d. Martha, 1; but if he were, he rem. soon to pts. unkn. unless he be found at Norwalk, 1672. JOHN, Salem, a glazier, came in the Hopewell, capt. Bundocke, 1635, aged 21, had gr. of ld. 1637, but prefer. to live at Boston, where, by w. Jane, he had Dorothy, b. 19 Feb. 1652; Sarah, 24 Mar. 1655; Elizabeth 30 Aug.1657; John, 19 Jan. 1660; and perhaps others, certain. William,; and possib. at S. may have had Mary, wh. m. 3 Oct. 1657, George Robinson. JOHN, Saybrook, s. of John (but resid. of f. is not told, perhaps it was Eng.) m. 15 May 1665, Sarah, d. of John Scranton of Guilford, had John, b. 5 Mar. 1666; Sarah, 17 Sept. 1668; Hannah, 10 Nov. 1670; Mary, 20 Feb. 1673; and Elizabeth 23 Dec. 1674.

He d. 23 Dec. 1746, not, as in the careful Hist. of N. by error of the press, is giv. 1748. His w. d. 31 Mar. 1745. RICHARD, Saybrook, m. 11 Oct. 1648, Mary, d. of Matthew Marvyn, had Joseph, b.

RICAHRD, Norwich, s. of the preced. m. 7 Dec. 1672, Elizabeth d. of Thomas Adgate, had Ann, b. 4 Dec. 1674; Caleb, 26 May 1679, Benajah, 4 May 1681; and Elizabeth 31 Jan. 1685; was a capt. and d. 27 Feb. 1727.

She join. with ch. of Boston 3 Feb. 1639, and on 17 of same mo. brot. that d. to be bapt. and, I think, bec. w. of William Beamsley, and perhaps it was this d.

He may have liv. short time, in 1668, at Marblehead. WILLIAM, Salisbury 1650, perhaps br. perhaps s. of the first Isaac, was a capt. and rep. 1679, d. 21 June 1699. WILLIAM, Portsmouth, m. 5 Sept. 1687, Ruth, d. of Hon. Elias Stileman, and descend. are not few, I believe, in N. H. BUTCHER, JOHN, Boston, m. 30 Jan. 1662, Mary Deane. JOHN, Roxbury, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 10 Oct. 1695; Elizabeth 17 Feb. 1699; and he d. 10 Nov. foll. ROBERT, Boston, ar. co. 1676, was freem. 1677, and that is all I hear of him. BUTLAND, WILLIAM, Boston, of wh. I kn. only that, in Nov. 1655, he [[320]] demand. as admor. from capt. Clark, the wages due to his s. Thomas, a mariner, lately dec. prob. on a voyage. BUTLER, DANIEL, Wickford 1674. DANIEL, Hartford, perhaps youngest s. of Richard of the same, had, by w. Mable (wh. bec. sec. w. of sec. Michael Taintor), only d. Elizabeth GILES, wh. came in the James from Southampton 1635, to Boston, arr. 3 June, was call. in the custom ho. of Marlborough, in Co. Wilts, but all else is unkn. HENRY, Dorchester, came a. 1642, it is said, from some pt. of Kent, m. Ann, d. of John Holman, by his first w. and had John, bapt. 6 July 1651, in this yr. was adm. freem. Very curious is the coincid. that one H. B. took that yr. his A. B. at Harv. in the catal. being not in Italic, tho. he preach. some yrs. at Milton, went home, and by Calamy, Vol. II. 611, is made min. at Yeovil, in Somersetsh. and to d. 24 Apr. 1696, aged a. 72. In Aug. 1673, he, then, in Eng. made deed in considerat. of L160. pd. by Thomas Holman, the younger br. of his w. of is rights in ld. both in Dorchester and Milton, tho. perhaps the phrase is varied only by the ignorance of the grantor, whether the div. of the town of D. since his rem. left his acres in the old, or transfer. them to the new. Certain. he early taught the sch. at D. and tradit. (that sometimes delights in improb.) made him to be bred at Cambridge Univ. instead of Harv. JAMES, Woburn 1676, had John, b. 22 July 1677, progenit. of a very num. line, rem. I suppose, to Billerica. JAMES, Boston, s. of Stephen, by w. Grace had Mary, b. 21 Feb. 1684; Grace, 2 May 1685; Elizabeth 23 Dec. 1686; and James, 21 Aug. 1688. See Geneal. Reg. I. 167. JOHN, Boston, ar co. 1644, perhaps the freem. 1649, said to have been a physician, was prob. of Hartford 166, certain, freem. there 1669; rem. to Branford, there d. 1680; by two ws. had four ds. and s. John, Richard, Jonathan, and Jonas. He may be a differ. man; but prob. is that physician, whose creditor, John Winchcombe, of Boston, claim. 5 Oct. 1682, admin. on est. and gave inv. 5 Feb. foll. of L11.3 only. JOHN, New Haven, M. 3 Jan. 1666, Elizabeth Morrill, had Mary, b. 9 Sept. 1667; ano. d. 1669; and John and James, tw. 6 Sept. 1671. JOHN, New London, m. prob. Catharine, d. of Richard Haughton of the same, had John, wh. m. a. 1700, beside a d. wh. d. 1689, perhaps young; but full details Miss Caulkins was unable to give. JOHN, Boston, 1676, a haberdasher, may easi. be mistak. for the first John. Perhaps he was his s. and a. 1684 was of Stratford, with w. Mary, wh. had admin. of the est. 1697. JOHN, Woburn, s. of James, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 4 Sept. 1704; John, 22 June 1706; Samuel, 3 May 1708; Sarah, 10 Jan. 1710; Joseph, 1 Dec. 1713; Phebe, 25 Jan. 1715; Mary, 27 Dec. 1716; Jacob, 10 Nov. 1718; Abigail, 5 Nov. 1720; Sarah, again, 9 Nov. 1724; and he rem. to New Hampsh. and d. 1759. Nine of his ch. liv. to m. and descend. are num. of wh. one was the dilig. hist. of Groton, that amply illustr. the geneal. JOSEPH, Wethersfield, s. prob. of Richard of Hartford, m. a. 1667, Mary, d. of William Goodrich, had Richard, b. 1667; Benjamin, a 1673; Joseph, [[321]] a. 1675; Mary, a. 1677; Gershom, a. 1683; and Charles, a 1686; all nam. in his will. He d. 10 Dec. 1732, aged 85; and his wid. d. 1 June 1735. NATHANIEL. Wethersfield, br. of Joseph, of wh. no more is told. NICHOLAS, Dorchester, came from Eastwell, in Co. Kent, it is said, with w. Joyce, three ch. of wh. one was John (possib. bapt. 22 Sept. 1645), and five serv. 1636, as by rec. of custom ho. at Sandwich, Eng. is pro. freem. 14 Mar. 1639; rem. 1651 to Martha's Vineyard, where descend. are yet. His d. Lydia m. 19 May 1646, John Minot of D. PETER, BOSTON, m. Mary, d. of William Alford, by whose will we learn, that he had Peter, Hannah, Samuel, and Mary, wh. was b. 21 Jan. 1655; but dates of his m. of b. of each of the other ch. and of his own d. are not seen. His wid. m. Hezekiah Usher, as third w. and brot. her ch. Samuel, Hannah, and Mary B. to be bapt. at O. S. ch 14 Mar. 1675. This renders it prob. that her s. Peter had been bapt. in the lifetime of his f. or was too big a youth to be then offer. A third h. Samuel Nowell, she outliv. and d. 1693. PETER, Boston, s. of the preced. was a capt. m. Elizabeth d. of Abraham Brown, freem. 1690, and d. 19 Aug. 1699, leav. Peter; John; Elizabeth; Mary, b. 21 Feb. 1694; Hezekiah, 10 June 1695; and Alford, 3 Feb. 1699. Rec. is found of earlier ch.

RICHARD, Cambridge 1632, freem. 14 May 1634, rem. to Hartford bef. 1643, was rep. 1656-60, a deac. and d. 6 Aug. 1684. By first w. he had Thomas, Samuel, and Nathaniel; by sec. w.

SAMUEL, Wethersfield, s. of Richard, was deac. had, in Haddam, Samuel, b. 26 Nov. 1665; and Elizabeth 20 Aug. 1667; and of him I can tell no more, but that his d.

Mary had william, 10 Oct. 1671. THOMAS, Lynn, rem. 1637, to Sandwich, but had stop. some time at Duxbury, had at S. Patience, b. 28 Sept. 1648; Dorothy, 23 Jan. 1651; perhaps more, but was, again, of Duxbury 1657. THOMAS, Hartford, s. of Richard, m. Sarah, d. of Rev. Samuel Stone, had, beside eight or nine ds. s. Thomas, Samuel, Joseph, and John. THOMAS, New London, d. 20 Dec. 1701, aged 59. Miss Caulkins thot. him anc. of Cols.

E. 1642; but he d. 1648, without w. or ch. leav. by will of 11 May in that yr. good est. to br. Richard chief. as in Trumbull, Coll. Rec. I. 482. WILLIAM, Ipswich, m. 1675, then aged 22, the w. Sarah, whose surname had not been heard, had William, b. 1 June 1677; Thomas, and Ralph, tw. 15 Sept. 1682, of wh. Ralph d. May 1684; was freem. 1682, and liv. 1708, as was his s. William. BUTMAN, JEREMIAH, Salem, may not be kn. exc. as a creditor of est. of Henry Harwood, dec. 1671. See Essex Inst. II. 70. JOHN, Gloucester, m. 30 June 1690, Sarah, d. of Abraham Robinson, the sec. had Jeremiah, b. early in 1691; a d. 1693; Mary, 1697; Hannah, 1700; John, 1703; Jonathan, 1708; and Samuel, 1711. BUTT, or BUTTS, NATHANIEL, Dorchester, s. prob. eldest, of Richard, m. 16 Sept. 1698, Elizabeth d. of capt. John Breck, and d. 10 Dec. 1721, of smallpox; but, whether he had issue, is not kn. His wid. d. 20 Oct. 1743, aged 67. RICHARD, Dorchester, by w. Deliverance, wh. d. 22 July 1699, aged 74, had Jerebiah, or Sherebiah, b. 18 Sept. 1675; but, as this is the first appeaer. of the surname in D. he may have had other ch. in ano. town bef. rem. thither, where were bapt. Barachiah, and Hannah, tw. 11 Jan. 1680; Mary, 2 July 1682; and Joseph, 18 May 1684. From the gr.stone of this last, we find that he d. 29 Mar. 1713. Older ch. than Sherebiah were Nathaniel and Samuel, yet neither is nam. in the will of the f. made 30 July 1690, bec. "going forth a soldier in the present exped. against the French," i. e. the abortive crusade to Quebec. It was not pro. until 8 Feb. 1694, for it made Deliverance, the w. extrix. and gave her all his prop. but to the ch. at her discret. Admin. de bonis non was giv. 1699 to Sherebiah. His mo. I presume, had been wid. Woodward (tho. name and resid. of h. are unkn.) for the rec. at the ch. is "26 May 1678, was the w. of R. B. bapt. being lately adm. a mem. At the same time her childr. bapt. whose names are Smith Woodward, Nathaniel, Samuel, Sherebiah, and Elizabeth" the last four, prob. being Butts. BUTTELS, LEONARD, Boston 1643, had w. Judith. Prob. the same as Buttolph. BUTTER, or BUTTERS, ISAAC, Medfield, freem. 1666. WILLIAM, Woburn, by w. Rebecca had William, b. 18 Sept. 1689, very soon; William, again, 24 Mar. 1691, d. young; Rebecca, 10 Oct. 1693, d. young; Lydia, 11 June 1695; Rebecca, again, 30 Aug. 1698; and perhaps he rem. BUTTERFIELD, Benjamin, Charlestown 1638, project. sett. at Woburn 1640, with others, was freem. 1643, had Mary, prob. other ch. (perhaps b. in Eng.) and here Nathaniel, 14 Feb. 1643; Samuel, 17 May 1647; Joseph, 15 Aug. 1649; rem. 1654, to Chelmsford, where his w. Ann d. 19 May 1660. He m. 3 June 1663, Hannah, wid. of Thomas Whittemore of Malden. Prob. he is anc. of the many wh. bear this name in our Co. of Middlesex. JONATHAN, Chelmsford, perhaps s. of [[323]] the preced. d. 3 Apr. 1673. NATHANIEL, Chelmsford, s. perhaps eldest, of Benjamin, freem. 1682. SAMUEL, Springfield 1636, was k. at Saybrook next yr. prob. by the Pequots, as minute. relat. in Winthrop I. 198. Very curious is the coincid. seen in Niles, Ind. but Fr. Wars, as print. 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VI. 279, that ano. Samuel B. of Groton, a. seventy yrs. later, fell in the hds. of the Ind. but far more strange is the mistake, in the large Hist. of Boston, 203, of the author's note, mak. Niles, with wild anachronism, give "the godly young man" k. by the Pequot, 1636, the name of him, wh. two or three generat. later, was tak. not k. by a differ. tribe. Mr. Drake's devotion to Ind. hist. might excite wonder at such an error, that can mislead no careful reader, wh. will instant. perceive the cause of the hallucinat. BUTTERWORTH, JOHN, Rehoboth 1643, was one of the found. of first Bapt. ch. 1663; in Swanzey. JOHN, Rehoboth, s. perhaps, of the preced. m. 4 Sept. 1674, Hannah Wheaton, whose f. is not told, had Mary, b. 20 Oct. 1677; John, 7 May 1679; and Elizabeth 15 Jan. 1683; perhaps others. NATHANIEL, Groton, perhaps only trans. d. 1682, as Farmer tells. SAMUEL, perhaps of Weymouth, was adm. freem. 13 May 1640, more certain. liv. 1645 at Rehoboth. SAMUEL, Rehoboth, wh. may have been s. of the preced. or of John. of the same, was soldier of Gallop's comp. in the sad exped. of Sir William Phips against Quebec, 1690; but it is not kn. whether he outliv. it. BUTTOLPH, JOHN, Salem, s. of Thomas, a glover, m. 16 Oct. 1663, Ann, or Hannah, d. of George Gardner, had John, b. 11 Sept. 1664, d. next spring; Jonathan, 2 Nov. 1665, or (by any. version of the numerals in rec.) 9 Apr. 1666; George, 15 Oct. 1667; rem. to Boston, there was freem. 1673; rem. to Wethersfield, and m. after 1687, Susanna, wid. of Nathaniel Sandford of Hartford (unless this was ano. man), and d. 14 Jan. 1693. Other ch. he had, by w. Sarah, at Salem, as John, again, 1 July 1688; Hannah, 9 Dec. 1689; Abigail, James, perhaps more, and left large est. at W. and Boston. THOMAS, Boston, leather-dresser, or glover, came in the Abigail, from London, 1635, aged 32, with w. Ann, 24, had Thomas, b. 12 Aug. 1637, bapt. 29 Sept. 1639, as he and w.had that mo. unit. with our ch.; John, 28, bapt. 29 Feb. 1640; Abigail, 18, bapt. 19 Feb. 1643; and Mehitable, b. 26 Oct. 1651. He was freem. 2 June 1641, constable 1647, and d. 1667. His will of 25 May, pro. 18 June of that yr. is seen in Geneal Reg. XVI. 159, and the wid. liv. to 10 Oct. 1680. Abigail m. 15 Aug. 1660, David Saywell, and, next m. 1673, Thomas Bingley. This name in ch. rec. is Buttall, wh. misled Farmer to count two for one, and is print. Buttels in 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 106. THOMAS, Boston, s. of the preced. m. 5 Sept. 1660, Mary, d. of Nicholas Baxter, had Thomas, b. 5 Oct. 1661, d. young; Thomas, again, 5 Feb. 1663; Mary, 21 Jan. 1665; Abigail, Jan. 1667; and Nicholas, 3 Mar. 1668; and d. Jan. 1669. His wid. m. Joseph Swett. [[324]] BUTTON, DANIEL, perhaps of Haverhill, s. of Matthias, may have had s. Matthias, and was in Lothrop's comp. k. at Bloody brook battle, 18 Sept. 1675. JOHN, Boston 1633, a miller, freem. 14 May 1634, ar. co. 1643, was a miller in Eng. b. a. 1594, disarm. in 1637, as a favor. of Wheelwright, yet made constable 1640, had w. Grace, wh. d. 9 Mar. 1639. Next yr. he had sec. w. Joan, and a third, in his will of 5 Nov. 1681, is nam. Mary, to wh. he gave most of his prop. exc. £20. to the first ch. "to buy two silver cups." Near 48 yrs. he had been a mem. and his resid. was on Copp's hill, of course near his mill. MATTHAIS, Boston, a Dutchman, by w. Lettice had Mary, bapt. 23 Feb. 1634; and Daniel, 22 Feb. 1635; was of Ipswich 1639, and after at Haverhill, where at gr. age. he d. 1672. Rev. Thomas Cobbet says, he came in 1628, of course with Endicott to Salem. But Mr. Felt perhaps confus. him with Robert. Perhaps his d. Sarah m. 6 Jan. 1674, James Kingsbury. MATTHIAS, Haverhill, perhaps gr.s. of the preced. took o. of alleg. 28 Nov. 1677. PETER, New London, had Peter, b. 1688; Mary, 1689; Matthias, 1692; and d. Eliphal, 1694. ROBERT, Salem, freem. 1642, m. Abigail, d. of wid. Alice Vermaes, had Samuel, bapt. 27 May of that yr.; Abigail, 7 Jan. 1644; Hannah, 21 Dec. 1645, a. five days old; Sarah, 16 Jan. 1648, a. six days old; and Samuel, again, 24 Feb. 1650, a. nine days old. But the three last were b. and bapt. at Boston, where he was a merch. in large business, constable 1650, and d. next yr. in early manhood. His will of 9 Jan. was pro. 3 weeks after, and his wid. m. in Apr. foll. Edward Hutchinson, jr. Abigail m. Joseph Dudson. BUTTERICK, Samuel, Concord, s. of William, was freem. 1679, and perhaps the same wh. serv. in Appleton's comp. as from Cambridge, was wound. in the gr. swamp fight, 19 Dec. 1675, and on the roll wrote his name Bouterick. WILLIAM, Concord, came, prob. in the Susan and Ellen 1635, aged 18, and he may have come, as Shattuck thot. with Flint, the chief planter of C. as we kn. not what sh. F. came in; yet the est. of F. was so large, that he must have been liable as a subsidy man, so under the Privy council's order not permit. to emb. without special license for the purpose, and to him, as a favorer of puritans, such license might have ben refus. B. m. 1646, Sarah Bateman, wh. d. 1664, perhaps mo. of all his ch. Mary; William; John, b. 21 Sept. 1653, wh. was inhab. of Stow; Samuel, 12 Jan. 1655; Edward, 6 Jan. 1657, wh. d. in few days; Joseph, 29 Dec. 1657; and Sarah. I suppose that in Concord rec. when it tells the b. of Mary, 19 Sept. 1648, and d. 1 Nov. foll. and calls her d. of William and Mary it is a blunder. He was freem. 1647, took sec. w. 1667, Jane Goodenow, possib. wid. of Thomas, wrote his name in three syllab. Butterick, and d. 30 June 1698. WILLIAM, Cambridge, came in the Planter 1635, aged 20, said to be [[325]] from Kingston, on Thames, call. ostler; but it may have been for purpose of deception. He m. I think, Elizabeth d. of John Hastings. BUTTRY, or BUTTERY, JOHN, Reading, perhaps s. of Nicholas, had John, b. 9 May 1660; and Elizabeth 1 June 1662. NICHOLAS, Cambridge, came, prob. in the James from London 1635, aged 33, with w. Martha, 28, and ch. Grace, 1. This surname is unusual; but when Grace m. 14 Oct. 1653, William Healey, it was spell.

Under commis. from home he was made postmaster for our side of the world. Thomas, Hist. of Print. II. 414, cit. Dunton's Life and Errors. JOHN, Boston 1695, perhaps be. but not prob. s. of the preced. ( and in doubt, whether he was here bef. May 1692, I have hesitat. to give him place on my page), by w. Mary had Elizabeth b. 6 Feb. 1696; and Mary, 23 July 1704; was postmaster, but much more kn. as propr. of the Boston Newsletter, the earliest Gazette on W. side of the ocean, print. by Bartholomew Green, first issu. 17 Apr. 1704; d. 4 Mar. 1728, aged 75. See Thomas, II. 210. Of this name, tho. [[332]] Farmer found twenty gr. in 1829, had proceed. from N. J. or Union, or N. E. coll. he could count only three at Harv. two at Dart. none at Yale. CAMPERWELL, MORDECAI, emb. 1 Apr. 1679, at Barbados for N. E. in the ketch Swallow; but whether he hever reach. our shores, I have not heard. CAMPERFIELD, or CANFIELD, JOHN, Portsmouth, R.

SAMUEL, Norwalk, freem. 1669, eldest s. of the preced. m. prob. a d. of Francis Willowby of Charlestown, but nothing more is kn. THOMAS, Milford 1646, perhaps br. of Matthew, an early but not first sett. rep. 1673 and 4, perhaps rem. His will, of 23 Feb. 1687 names ch. Thomas, wh. d. bef. his f. leav. w. Rebecca with ch. Thomas, and Rebecca; Jeremiah; Sarah Platt; Phebe Smith, w. of John; Elizabeth Baldwin; Abigail Staples; Mary; Hannah; and Mehitable. The will of his wid. Phebe was made 28 July 1690. For w. Phebe and s. Jeremiah we must trust Cothren, wh. however can tell only, that Jeremiah m. Judith Mallory, had Jeremiah, and other ch. not favor. with names. In the spell. of this name authors vary, even in giv. the chart. of Char. II. Trumbull's Hist. I. 249, may be less accura. than Trumbull, Col. Rec. II. 3. The p was drop. and m turn. to n very early. Farmer found, in 1829, six gr. of this name at Yale, none at Harv. or Dart. CAMPION, CLEMENT, Portsmouth 1647. CAMPLIN, RICHARD, Salem, d. 23 Apr. 1662.

THOMAS, Portsmouth 1631, sent over by Mason, the patentee, was of Dover 1644, had Thomas, b. bef. 1645; Joseph; Mary, wh. m. Jeremy Tibbets; and a d. wh. m. Henry Hobbs. In June 1661, his w. Jane (we may hope not the mo. of those ch.) was indict. for beat. him, his s.-in-law Tibbets; and his w. and he d. 1677, or earlier. THOMAS, Dover, s. of the preced. by w. Sarah had six ch. but tho. their names are not seen, the ages, at his d. early in 1675, were, as Mr. Quint assures us, 11, 9, 8, 6,4, and 1 yrs. respectiv. His wid. m. bef. May 1677, John Wingate, and had more. CANNON, JOHN, Plymouth, came in the Fortune 1621; but whether he rem. or went home, is unkn. and his name at the div. of cattle, 1627, is not found. One C. was of Sandwich 1650, wh. may have been that [[333]] Robert of New London in 1678, wh. was chos. a town officer in 1680, and prob. rem. soon. CANTERBURY, CORNELIUS, Hingham 1639, was liv. 1672, but left descend. only thro. female line. Perhaps Ann, wh. m. July 1679, Peter Barnes, was the eldest, b. 14 May 1653; Mary, 29 Oct. 1654; and Cornelius, 11 Jan. 1657; and I hear no more.

This name is often Cantelberry, or Cantlebury. CAPEN, BERNARD, Dorchester, came, perhaps after his s. for he was adm. freem. not until 16 May 1636, and d. 8 Nov. 1638, aged 70, and his wid. d. of Oliver Purchis, m. on the Monday of Whitsun week, 1596, d. 26 Mar. 1653, aged 75, acc. the gr.stone inscript. thot. to be the earliest in N.

Susanna d. 13 Nov. 1666. He was from Dorchester, in O. E. as appears from nuncup. will of Henry Russell, wh. left him a legacy there.

Next, by w.

As a support. of the pestilent heresies of Wheelwright and Hutchinson, he was disfranchis. in 1637, and went to R. I. was one of the eighteen orig. purch. of the beautif. isl. of Aquedneck, and partner in the civil compact. In 1643 he was engag. in the purch. of Warwick with Gorton and others, and for sustain. his and their right was made prison. with all the rest, brot. to Boston, and sentenc. to be incarc. at Roxbury, in irons (when the opin. of the rev. elders, that their offence deserv. death, was overrul.), not to depart on pain of death. See Winthrop I. 248, II. 121, 48. Glad eno. was the governm. to disch. him and his fellow-suffer. next yr. with sentence of banishm. on pain of forfiet. life for coming back. He was quiet at W. 1655, had John; Sarah; James, b. 2 May 1655; Mary; and Joseph; perhaps was an Assist. 1665, and d. at Newport in the time of Philip's war 1675 or 6, leav. wid. Mary. His d.

ROBERT, Marshfield, had gr. of 1638, yet, tho. he sev. times request. the privilege, he was not adm. freem. bef. 1644, had John, bef. ment. and William, perhaps took small est. in Boston 1668, and d. Apr. 1680, aged 85. WILLIAM, Marshfield, s. of the preced. m. 18 Jan. 1682, Elizabeth eldest d. of deac. John Foster of the same. CARWITHEN, CORWITHEN, CURWITHIN, KERWITHY, or CARWITHIE, CALEB, Huntington, L. I. was rec. as freem. of Conn. 1664. DAVID, Salem 1649, or rather 1644, if Mr. Felt's refer. in Ann. 1. 168 and 175 mean one person, whose w. Grace unit. with the ch. 1643. Perhaps he is the same, wh. m. at Boston, 22 Sept. 1660, wid. Frances Oldham, but with her former h. it is diffic. to make any acquaint. DICKORY, Boston, shipmaster, d. 6 Sept. 1653, perhaps only trans. and may be the same as two yrs. bef. was here in big sh. ment. by Roger Williams in letters, 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. IX. 252 and 3, and by Davenport in the very mo. preced. the coming in last voyage, Ib. 295. JOSHUA, Boston, mariner, m. 6 Aug. 1657, Elizabeth d. of John Farnum, had Elizabeth b. 6 June 1659. His wid. m. 1663, Edmund Mumford. PHILIP, New London 1650, sold, in 1651, his new-built ho. and rem. CARY, DAVID, Bristol, s. prob. of John the first, had w. and d. there 1689. FRANCIS, Roxbury, d. 3 Sept. 1672, aged 71, says gr.stone, in Geneal. Reg. XIV. 52, but I entertain strong suspicion of error. JAMES, Charlestown 1639, came, as tradit. says, from Bristol, by w. Elinor had John, b. 29 July 1642; James, 7 Mar. 1644, d. soon; Nathaniel, 7 Mar. 1645; Jonathan, 15 Jan. 1647; Elizabeth 23 Sept. 1648; he never was freem. but d. 2 Nov. 1681, aged 81, as gr.stone tells. JOHN, Bridgewater, said to have come from neighb. of Bristol, Eng. at the age of 25, and set down first, 1637, at Duxbury, then hav. gr. of ld. m.

He was the first town clk. and early his name was writ. Carew; but as the Eng. pronounce that name Cary, spell. soon foll. sound. Of his d. 2 Nov. 1681 is the date in report, against wh. suspicion of course aris. that for this the identity of James and John has been confound. Elizabeth m. William Brett the sec. and Rebecca m. 1686, Samuel Allen the third. JOHN, Bridgewater, s. of the preced. m. 1670, [[345]] Abigail, d. of Samuel Allen the sec. had John, b. 1671, d. soon; Seth, 1672; John, again, 1674; Nathaniel, 1676; Eleazer, 1678; James,1680; and rem. to Bristol, there with w. and seven. ch. was liv. in 1689, and his w. was prob. Hannah. JONATHAN, Charlestown, s. of James, freem. 1682, by w. Hannah Winsor had two ch. bapt. 14 May 1682, whose names are not giv. on the ch. rec. but by town rec. as Mr. Wyman assures me, were James, b. 7 Dec. 1679; and Abigail, 13 Jan. 1682. An earlier ch. Eleanor, b. 10 Dec. 1677, d. in few days. Also he had bapt. Samuel, 1 Apr. 1683; Ebenezer, 17 Aug. 1684; and Freelove, 26 Feb. 1688; was deac. 1710, and his w. d. 14 Dec. 1715, aged a. 59. He d. 1737, and of his descend. were Rev. Thomas, II. C. 1761; and Rev. Samuel, H. C. 1804. JOSEPH, Norwich, had gr. of Id. 1687 in that pt. now Preston. NATHANIEL, Charlestown, br. of Jonathan, whose w. after barbarous treatm. in the infernal delusion of 1692, was by him secret. convey. to N. Y. there open. protect. by Gov. Fletcher. See Hutch. II. 47 and 8, but the gr. historian of Mass. mistook the name of the br. wh. had this afflict. as in the charm. Lectures on Witchcr. from p. 71 to 78, is shown by Upham. After the demons were some yrs. gone from C. he return. and with his w. Elizabeth was again rec. into the ch. as they had both been bef. when their ch. Elizabeth and Martha were bapt. 11 July 1680; Nathaniel, 12 Sept. foll.; John, 28 Jan. 1683; and Mary, 14 Jan. 1690. NICHOLAS, Salem 1637, may have been of Pemaquid 1674. Of this name, in 1838, eight had been gr. at Harv. and two at Yale. CASE, BARTHOLOMEW, Simsbury, s. of John, m. 7 Dec. 1699, Mary, d. of Samuel Humphrey, had Mary, b. 1701, d. soon; Thomas, 28 June 1702; Mary, again, 8 Nov. 1704; Elizabeth; Amos, 1712; Sarah, 1715; Isaac, 23 Oct. 1717; Abraham, 20 Aug. 1720; and Abigail, 1721; and d. 25 Oct. 1725. EBENEZER, Roxbury, m. 13 Mar. 1690, Patience, d. of James Draper, had Mary, b. 20 July 1691; Jonathan, 1 Sept. 1693; and perhaps he rem.

THOMAS, Fairfield, rem. to the Dutch a. 1664, and is by Mather (wh. is always liberal in obloquy against adher. of George Fox), call. a villain, Magn. VII. 25. We hear not any reason for such epith. exc. his Quaker. habit. influence among the foll. nam. by the gr. ecclesiast. histor. "Case's crew," at Southold, L. I. where, he sorrowf. adds, "to this day (1699), the sect is kn." He was sev. times imprison. for his cause, and by such treatm. not prob. induc. to reject the inward light; and d. 1692, perhaps unm. certain. without issue. WILLIAM, Newport, among the freem. 1655. WILLIAM, Charlestown m. 28 Jan. 1686, Mary Starkey, WILLIAM, Simsbury, br. of Bartholomew, m. 1688, Elizabeth d. of Joshua Holcomb, had Elizabeth b.

His wid. m. 10 Mar. 1704, John Slater; next m. Thomas Marshall; and d. 26 Feb. 1762. This name was very com. in that region, and I count gr. in 1855, at Yale, ten, but none in Harv. or Dart. catal. CASELEY, or CASLEY, EDWARD, Scituate 1638, rem. to Barnstable [[347]] 1639, says Deane. JOHN, Barnstable 1640-9, may have been br. of the preced. WILLIAM, perhaps a br. of the preced. or even the f. had been freem. of Mass. 2 Nov. 1637, tho. his place of resid. is not found, but soon after he rem. to Sandwich, and this makes it prob. that he was first of Lynn; at S. he m. in Nov. 1639, a sis. of the w. of Rev. Marmaduke Matthews of Yarmouth, may have sett. at Barnstable, where long the name prevail. and spread thence in the last century, to Gorham, Me. CASEY, JOHN, Boston, serv. to Thomas Gardner of Roxbury, or rather of Muddy riv. in B. was a soldier of Oliver's comp. wound. in the gr. battle of Philip's war. CASH, WILLIAM, Salem, mariner, m.

CASTINE, or CAUSTINE, WILLIAM, Boston, had w. Isabel, wh. d. 25 [[348]] Jan. 1654, but by w. Mary had Lydia, b. 22 Jan. 1655. It may be Costinge. CASTLE, HENRY, Woodbury 1682, then resid. with Henry, jr. perhaps his s. and d. 2 Feb. 1698, being the first d. on rec. there, but to find wh. as his f. would be more agreea. to us.

CATCHAM, or CATCHEM. See Ketcham. CATE, EDWARD, Portsmouth, was of the gr. jury 1684. JAMES, Portsmouth 1665, d. a. 1677, may have been f. or br. of the preced.

CATES, JOHN, Windham, perhaps bef. 1686, but the time or cause of his com. to our country, is equal. unkn. There was a report, that he came from Virg. and possib. he was that passeng. from London in the sh. Safety 1635. Much idle conject. has been expend. on the reason of his withdr. from society, and liv. some time in a cave; and among the most absurd is, that he was a regicide. Perhaps he was only a misanthrop. humorist, perhaps had been a buccanier, and thot. seclusion his safest course. See Hinman. He built, 1689, the first ho. in the town, left ch. in Eng. as his will, 5 May 1696, shows. In it he gave ld. for a sch. more for the poor of W. and money, not (as popul. report was) plate to the ch. and d. 16 July, tho. his inv. appears 11th 1697. See Trumbull's Hist. 408.

After small gifts to the capt. of the vessel, and two fellow-passeng. he dispos. the cargo to his only s. Charles, and made Thomas Palmer excor. JOHN, Deerfield, came from Newark, N.

Thomas Spencer. WILLIAM, Kittery 1631, may have been s. of Humphrey or of the preced. for nothing is kn. but that he was call junr. and rem. to Boston, where by w. Mary he had Mary, b. Dec. 1644. Well has the name been perpet. and some descend. of Humphrey, or William, but wh. I kn. not, have part of the Newichwanuck est. to our day. CHADDOCK, for this name, Coffin gives an alias Chadwick, that grew perhaps from the sound.

Norfk. was freem. 13 Mar. 1639, and no more with confid. is kn. of him, not even the date of his d. nor names of his ch. tho. strong presumpt. is that they were Henry and William. HENRY, the freem. of 1645, was, I think, of Hingham, and s. of the preced. but no more is heard of him, exc. that he had s. Nathaniel, and possib. Henry.

JOSEPH, Hadley, soldier there on serv. 1676, perhaps from the E. m. 8 June 1688, Mercy, d. of John Dickinson, first of the same, had Sarah, b. 2 or 9 Nov. 1690, d. soon; Sarah, again, 10 Mar. 1693; and John, 4 Mar. 1700; rem. to Colchester; where his w. d. 30 June 1735, and he d. 7 Aug. 1752, aged 87.

It names those six ch. as then liv. calls one Mary Smith, and adds to the number Elizabeth Daniel, beside gr.ch. John Graves, and perhaps his sis. Mary G. but of such Graves I kn. nothing.

His w. Rebecca, mo. of the four last ch. perhaps of more, d. 26 Sept. 1692, in pris. on the preposter. charge of witchcrf. and he d. 31 May 1706, aged 85. This name, like [[355]] Parker, Wheeler, or other designat. of office or employm. was so wide. diffus. in our mo. country, that it must be vain to attempt trac. of relationsh. in various pts. of this contin. In 1834, Farmer found the gr. of this name were three at Dart. one at Harv. one at Yale, and five at other N. E. coll. CHABERS, ROBERT, Marshfield 1643, came in the Hopewell, capt.

May 1652 and Oct. 1654, unless this be mistak. for Robert, an opin. wh. may be suppos. to have influenc. the mak. of Index to Trumbull's Col. Rec. I. since it does not include the pages, where the name of Thomas, in the text, appears at the Gen.

CHARLES, Scituate, a gr. scholar, the ninth ch. fifth s. of George, b. at Yardley, in Co. Herts, a. 30 miles from London, bapt. on Sunday, 5 Nov. 1592, was bred at Westminister sch. and saved on 5 Nov. 1605 by the discov. of Gunpowder plot; at Trinity Coll. Camb. took his degr. A. B. [[367]] 1613, A. M. 1617; B.D. 1624. Much reputa. at the Univ. he gain. by Latin verses of lamenta. on d. 1619, of Queen Ann, and by Greek and Latin on d. of her h. James, and access. of Charles, 1625, as in Cantab. Dolor et Solamen, so that he was chos. profess. for one, if not two chairs. But in cleric. life he was early at Marston St. Lawrence, and had the vicarage of Ware in his native shire, 1627-34 and from that valua. liv. for non-conform. in non-essentials he was forc. by Archbp. Laud. In search of comforta. and secure worship he came to N. E. arr. in Dec. 1637 at Plymouth, there preach. as aid to Reyner, some time, but in 1641 was call. to S. where above twelve yrs. he min. yet with freq. troubles; and was prepar. to go home for partak. the puritan triumph in Eng. when he was chos. head of the Coll. at Cambridge, on dismiss. in 1654, of Dunster, its first Presid. In this post he d. 19 Feb. 1672, aged 79 yrs. and less prob. than 4 mos. but Mather, mistak. the inscript. on his tomb, under his eye, of 80th for 82d yr. of his age, to make his error consistent, dares to affirm in Magn. III. 134, that he was b. in 1589, instead of 1592, and on p. 140 boldly asserts, that he d. (giv. the right time), "in the eighty-second yr. of his age." Explanat. of his blunder is easi. found. In Roman numerals the day and yr. of his dec. XIX Feb. MDCLXXI in our Arabic numbers 1671 aet. LXXX. seems plain eno. but the careless author forc. the II out of place, and. them to the later number. Yet Green's Almanac of 1673 had said, "in his 80th yr." and hardly a min. in the country could have fail. to say, that the first Presid. wh. d. in office, was little over 79 yrs. old. The author (Rev. W. C. Fowler) of the elaborate life of Chauncy, his ancest. and descend. in Geneal. Reg. X. 251, has quot. two paragr. from the Magnalia, suppresing the word " second"after eighty, whereby Mather seems to be compel. to speak the truth "Fourscore years of age despatched it not," is the sweet commenda. of Mather for his labors; and contempt for the chronology should not, perhaps, be so express. especial. as the earlier author foll. his natural weakness, to show his knowl. of the value of a man, in shekels, above the age of sixty, only 15, but younger, 50 shekels, makes Chauncy's worth "at 80 contin. much what as it was when he was 60." In his valua. Biogr. Dict. Ed. 1857, Dr. Allen had more scrupulously foll. the error of the Magn. We see, in the Biogr.

JAMES, Newport, youngest s. of the Hon. Jeremiah, m. Hope, a. of Nicholas Power of Providence, had Hope, b. 29 Dec. 1673; and Jonathan, a. 1681. He was a preach. but I kn.no more of him exc. that he d. 7 Dec. 1736, aged 87. JAMES, Roxbury, s. of James bef. ment. m. 27 Apr. 1681, Hannah, d. of Peleg Heath, had James, b. 4 Feb. 1682.

JEREMIAH, Newport 1640, had been at Portsmouth, on the upper end of the isl. 1638, bef. N. was sett. was first constable of the town, treasur. of the Col. 1647, and Assist. 1648, when he was chief officer.

JEREMIAH, Newport, s. of the preced. m. says the fam. geneal. Ann Audley. She may have been Hannah Odlyn, d. of John of Boston, wh. had much sympathy with the R. I. first sett. as hav. with most of them been ill treat. by the governm. of Mass. in Nov. 1637, for their errors in religious dogmas. To ea. of his ch. Susanna, Henry, James, Samuel, Weston, Frances, Mary, Ann, and Sarah are supplied ws. or hs. respectiv. by the fam. docum. but without names appended. JOHN, Cambridge, freem. 6 Nov. 1632, rem. 1636, to Hartford with Hooker, thence, perhaps, to Milford, where his a. Elizabeth m. William Pratt of H.

H. 1640, Mary, wh. as Porter says, m. William Chatterton; and Esther 1 Mar. 1646. His inv. was of 13 May 1648. JOHN, Newport, the disting. author of "Ill News from N. E." a physician, came first, he says, to Boston in Nov. 1637, thence driv. the next yr. as a favorer of Mrs. Hutchinson, went to R. I. and is venerat. as f. of the settlem. at N. By fam. rec. he was of Bedfordsh. third s. of Thomas and Rose, b. 8 Oct. 1609; bec. treasr. of the Col. 1649, and was sent to Eng. two yrs. after to prevail on the Council of State to revoke the extra. powers giv. to Coddington, but on his coming to Boston to embark was imprison. 1651. In 1652 he pub. at London his valua. tract, a narrative of the persecut. of his friends here; after long serv. in Eng. he was made dept.-gov. of the unit. col. of R. I. and Providence Planta. in 1669, and 70, again agent to Eng. but d. here 20 Apr. 1676, in his will, made that day, call. hims. a. 66 yrs. old. He names in it two ws. the first a d. of John Harges of Bedfordsh. and the name of the other is unkn. yet he had no ch. says Backus, I. 443. By three of his brs. the name has been hon. perpet. in that prov. and state. Ano. physician was JOHN of Newbury 1638, wh. bef. com. from Eng. had m. Martha, sis. of Sir Richard Saltonstall, was freem. 22 May 1639, and perhaps rep. the same yr. rem. ten yrs. after to Boston, and was noted in his profess. as also for keep. fine horses. He d.

Jemima, wh. had m. 6 Nov. 1656, Robert Drew of B. and the ch. of Jemima, names John, and Elizabeth His wid. d. 19 Sept. 1680, aged 85. Curious confus. is obs. in Geneal. Reg.

More than one other Samuel was of Boston in early days, but I have not learn. any thing of either to convince me, that he was inhab. here bef. 1692. THADDEUS, Plymouth, m. 1663, Elizabeth d. of Michael Mitton, was lieut. in the war with the E. Ind. 1689, and was k. 1690 by them at F. His wid. d. at Boston 1736, aged 91. Of his ch.

Mary Ring, (bef. 1631, when in her mo.'s will he is nam.), had Andrew; James; Susanna, wh. m. 3 Nov. 1658, Barnabas Lothrop; William; John; and Nathaniel. He was rep. 1651 and 5, m. sec. w. 1664, wid. Alice Nichols, d. of Richard Hallet, liv. in 1670 at Harwich, where he had third w. Elizabeth Crow, perhaps wid. of John, and d. 24 Mar. 1697, aged, says the gr.stone, 98, or more prob. only 92, since in 1664 he [[401]] made o. that he was a. 59 yrs. old. But to this suffic. longev. the " Guide to Plymouth," 255, would make alarming addit. in his note, " suppos. mate of the Mayflower." We can hardly doubt, that the oldest surv. of that memo. voyage, within the bounds of the Old Colony, would have been too well known to need a weak tradit. to lean on; and that officer of 1620 must have been older than the oldest liv. in 1697, had he not been d. many yrs. bef. In 1627 this Thomas, not the mate, had sh. in the div. of lds. as com. in the Ann, not Mayflower. THOMAS, Newport 1638, elder br. of John of the same, bapt. soon after b. 31 Mar. 1600, one of the found. of the first ch. of Bapt. 1641, and d. 2 Dec. 1674, without ch. leav. est. to childr. of his br. Joseph in his will, where alone we find their names. THOMAS, Boston, merch. had first liv. at Dorchester, 1636, selectman there 1641 and 2, ar. co. 1638, freem. 14 Mar. 1639, a capt. in 1653, and after head of the Boston reg. rep. 1651, and many yrs. more, speaker in 1662, and sev. yrs. later, chos. an Assist. 1673, and d. 28 July 1678. His first w. was Mary, by wh. he had Mehitable, b. 18 Apr. 1640; Elizabeth 22 May 1642; and Deborah, bapt. 9 June 1644. Other ch. were Thomas, the only s. and Leah, perhaps, both b. in Eng. but his will, made shortly bef. his d. instr. us that she was w. of Thomas Baker, Deborah, w. of Nathaniel Byfield, and Elizabeth Stevens among ds. and sev. gr.ch. with conting. provision for gr. gr.ch. and his wid. was Ann. Surnames of either w. are not kn. High should be our esteem of C. wh. was one of only two mem. of the legislat. the Boston reps. in 1656, that voted against the law for putt. to d. Quakers, wh. ret. after banishm. Dr. Harris, with doubtful propriety, suppos. him to be one of three brs. Bray, Joseph, and Thomas, of D. 1630, commemo. in epit. on a gr.stone: Here lie three Clarks, their accounts are even, Entered on earth, carried up to heaven. Ano. THOMAS of Boston, early, adm. of the ch. 18 July 1640, and perhaps the freem. of 2 June 1641, was a blacksmith, and may have liv. on N. side of the harbor, call. Winisemet, now Chelsea, by w. Elizabeth had Cornelius, b. Dec. 1639, bapt. 19 July foll.; Jacob, 16. bapt. 22 May 1642; Rachel, 6 July 1646, d. at 7 yrs. and perhaps Benjamin, 4 May 1656. THOMAS, New Haven 1645, prob. d. bef. 1648. THOMAS, Lynn 1640, rem. to Reading, there d. 1693. THOMAS, Ipswich 1663. THOMAS, Boston, call. jr. but tho. b. in Eng. he may not be s. of the Hon. Thomas, yet he liv. prob. some time, earlier or later, at Dorchester, was of ar. co. 1644, more than once its capt. rep 1673-6, and d. 13 Mar. 1683. He was one of the wealthiest merch. of B. and by his will of 15 Aug. 1679, anew declar. 22 May 1680, pro. 22 Mar. 1683, it is judg. that only two ch. were then liv. Mehitable Warren, and Elizabeth wh. had m. 28 May 1661, Mr. John [[402]] Freak, and was then w. of Elisha Hutchinson. To his wid. Elizabeth he gives £80 a yr. and £50 in plate, to s. Warren £100, and to eldest s. of his d. Mehitable W. at 21 yrs. of age, or m. with consent of parents, £1000; but if she have no s. this to be equal. div. among ds. if God give them, also to ea. of said ds. at 21 yrs. or m. with consent £300; to s. Elisha H. £100, and to eldest s. of his d. Elizabeth H. at 21 yrs. or m. with consent £1000; then to many relat. in Eng. to sis. Ann Haynes, Dorothy Muscate, and John Smith, sis. Stoughton, cous. i. e. neph. Thomas Smith; then to the ch. of wh. he was mem. £50, to ten of his poor kindr. £5 ea. to the poor of Boston £.50, to the poor of Dorchester £20, to the art.comp.to purch. arms for poor £10 with this striking final provis. "if both my ds. fail of posterity," he gives "for a good hospital in Boston £1500," and he made overseers his kinsm. William Stoughton, capt. John Richards, Mr. William Tailer, and Mr. Thomas Smith, and £10 to ea. of them. It is not easy to discrimin. betw. this Thomas and the first of the name, wh. was the speaker. Perhaps in Geneal. Reg. V. 398, the two in some particul. are confus. THOMAS, Reading, had first w. Else, wh. d. 28 June 1658, and he m. 31 Aug. foll. Mary, had Elizabeth b. 3 Nov. 1659; and Thomas, 13 Oct. 1661. THOMAS, Hartford, s. of Nicholas, made freem. 1658, had (says Hinman, 203) Thomas, Daniel, and Joseph, THOMAS, Boston, early liv. on Noddle's isl. had d. Sarah, that m. 11 June 1662, George Hiskett. THOMAS, New Haven, master of the iron works there 1669. THOMAS, Ipswich, freem. 1674. THOMAS, Scituate 1674, by Deane lightly conject. to be s. or gr.s. of the mate of the Mayflower, because he came from Plymouth, m. 1676, Martha, d. of Richard Curtis, had Thomas, Joseph, Daniel, Samuel, Nathaniel, Mercy, Deborah, Rachel, Ann, Charity, and Mary. Bef. that m. he serv. in Philip's war. THOMAS, Salem, m. 4 Mar. 1676 Mary Voaker, that seems a strange name, had Thomas b. 14 Apr. 1677. THOMAS, Chelmsford, s. of Jonas, ord. 1677, by w. Mary had Lucy; Elizabeth both liv. to m. beside sev. wh. d. young; Jonas, b. 20 Dec. 1684; and Thomas, 28 Sept. 1694. His w. d. 2 Dec. 1700, and he m. 2 Oct. 1702, Elizabeth d. of Rev. Samuel Whiting, and d. 7 Dec. 1704. He was an able man, and by the exercise of strong common sense, that (in so early a day) too many of the clergy were afraid to show, saved one woman, accus. as a witch. THOMAS, Yarmouth, m. 15 Feb. 1682, Rebecca, d. of the sec. John Miller of the same, had Susanna, b. 21 Feb. 1684; and Thomas, 25 Dec. 1685. THOMAS, Charlestown, m. 15 Oct. 1684, Sarah, d. of Joseph Lynde of the same, had Thomas, b. 22 June foll. He liv. on Malden side, I presume, d. early, and his wid. m. 12 Jan. 1692, Seth Sweetwater. THOMAS, Newbury, s. of Nathaniel, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 25 Dec. 1690; Thomas, 2 Sept. 1692; Nathaniel, 23 Oct. 1694; Martha, 12 Apr. 1696; Mary, 16 Aug. 1698; and Daniel, 26 Jan. 1701. TIMOTHY, [[403]] Boston, an import. man, was constable 1693; rep. 1700, capt. and some yrs. selectman. He was s. of the first Jonas by sec. w. d. 15 June 1737, aged 80. He had large share in settlem. of Bristol, lib. there, 1689, with w. and five ch. and his will gave all his est. (exc. L20. to the poor of Dr. Colman's ch.) in equal sh. to his seven ch. Jonas, Sarah Paine, Mary Ruck, Margaret Fitch, Catharine Drowne, and heirs of Abigail Parrot, and of Prudence Kneeland, dec. and nam. Bryant Parrot and John Kneeland guardns. of their respective ch. mak. s. Jonas, Shem Drowne, and Joseph Fitch excors. TRISTRAM, or THURSTON, Plymouth, came from Ipswich, Co. Suffk. in the Francis 1634, aged 44, prob. with w. Faith, tho. not nam. in the list of the custom ho. certain. with d. Faith, 15, wh. m. 6 Jan. 1635, Edward Dotey, and next m. 14 Mar. 1667, John Phillips, and surv. him. He had rem. to Duxbury, and d. 6 Dec. 1661; had s. Thurston, and Henry, both imbec. put under guardians. URIAH, Roxbury, s. of Hugh, by w. Joanna, in Boston, had Uriah, b. 5 Oct. 1677; but by w. Mary had at R. Thomas, 29, bapt. 30 Nov. 1679; John, 10, bapt. 12 Feb. 1682; Mary, bapt. 26 Aug. 1683, at the same time with her br. Uriah; and a ch. b. in Apr. 1685, that d. soon; Hannah; Richard; rem. 1693 to Watertown, and had Peter, 12 Mar. 1694, H. C. 1712, a celebr. min. of Danvers, progenit. of a num. line; Benjamin, 6 Nov. 1696; Nathaniel, 20 June 1698; and Samuel, 15 July 1700. Soon after his w. d. and he m. 21 Nov. of that yr. third w. Martha Pease, had Susanna, 13 Nov. 1701, d. young; and Pease, bapt. 2 Aug. 1703. But the gr.stone inscript. makes w. Hannah, aged 25, d. 28 Feb. 1682, as in Geneal. Reg. XIV. 52, and this, or Bond, 160, must be wrong. He was selectman 1699 and 1700; and d. 26 July 1721, in his will of 27 May preced. of wh. s. Richard was excor. names w. liv. ch. Peter, Richard, Benjamin, Uriah, Nathaniel, Samuel, Mary Kimball, and Hannah Clark, and for the wid. and ch. of his s. John, as well as for Elizabeth Hastings on acco. of dec. s. Thomas, was tender remembr. yet it is not seen in Bond, that s. Pease was ment. in it. The name is pervert. to Uzijah in Geneal. Reg. V. 394. WALTER, Newport, eldest s. of Jeremiah (an absurd tradit. that he was b. a. 1637, on the ocean, prob. had its origin from the sound of his name, Water), by first w. Content, bur. 27 Mar. 1666, had, perhaps, near half of his ch. but one was a s. whose name is not told, and only Mary, b. 11 Jan. or Feb. 1662, is ment. By sec. w. m. 1666, Hannah, d. of Richard Scott sec. of N. wh. d. 24 July 1681, he had Hannah, 28 Oct. 1667; beside other ds. Catharine, 1 May 1669; Content, 1 Aug. 1671; and Deliverance, 16 June 1678. His s. Jeremiah, b. 21 Feb. or Mar. 1674, wh. d. young, was prob. his only one, if Francis, b. 17 Jan. or Feb. 1673, were a d. as is supposed. The third w. was Freeborn, d. of famous Roger Williams, wid. of Thomas Hart, wh. he m. 6 Mar. 1683, and wh. d. 10 Dec. 1709. Late in life he m. 1711 fourth w. Sarah, d. of Matthew Prior of L.

He was a Quaker, and emin. for attract. confidence of his brethr. had been dept.-gov. bef. 1676, in wh. yr. of trial he was chos. gov. again in 1686, made one of Andros' Counc. by K. James II. when he unit. the N. E. cols. and gov. again after the separat. 1696, 7 and last in 1700, and d.22 May 1714, aged 74. Hannah m. 26 Sept. or Nov. 1691, the first Thomas Rodman. WESTON, Newport, br. of the preced. m. 25 Dec. 1668, Mary, eldest d. of Peter, not Nicholas (as sometimes said) Easton, [[404]] had Mary, b. 11 Jan. 1670; John, 15 July 1672; Weston, 18 Feb. 1675, d. soon; Weston, again, 15 Apr. 1677; and Jeremiah, 23 Nov. 1685. Yet this last may have been ch. of his sec. w. Rebecca, d. of Edward Thurston. WILLIAM, Ipswich, came prob. in the fleet with Winthrop desir. in Oct. 1630, adm. was freem. and was sw. 18 May foll. went with the earliest sett. 1633, to I. and may have rem. to other town bef. his d. for we kn. nothing more of him.

He d. 15 Mar. 1682, aged 87, and his wid. d. 11 Oct. 1694, aged 95. Mary m. 27 Dec. 1655 (rather young) William Locke; Elizabeth m. 20 Dec. 1659, George Brush, both of Woburn; Hannah m. 1667, William Frissell of Concord; and Lydia had two ds. and was a wid. when in his will of 10 Dec. 1681, her f. provid. for them. A careful writer in Geneal. Reg. V. 248, 9, conject. that this man emb. at London in the Plain Joan, and his w. in the Primrose, in May and July respectiv. 1635, both for Virg. but he next yr. own. to me, that he was satisf. of the contra. WILLIAM, Salem, was suppos. by Mr. Felt to be the man wh. wish. adm. as freem. 1630, tho. in my opin. he came first in 1634, by the Mary and John. He kept an ordinary, and was censur. by the governm. when he was lieut. 1645, for offence in petitn. to Eng. See Winthrop II. 301. By a former w. he had a s. and d. and by w.

He was selectman 1646 and 7, rem. 1659 to Northampton, for wh. he was rep. 1663, and 13 yrs. more, but not consecut. and lieut. in Philip's war.

WILLIAM, Lynn, perhaps s. of William of the same, m. 23 Aug. 1669, Elinor Dearnford, as Felt gives the name in Geneal. Reg. V. 95, rem. I conject. to Boston (where his w. on rec. is Ellen), and had Joanna, b. 22 Aug. 1670.

On this copious name, in some fam. using e instead of a, and in more end. with e, it seem. best to have uniform. spell as there exists nothing but confus. in the variety, I have bestow. gr. labor, but feel sure, that many omiss. may be detect. and ought to rejoice if graver failure be not found.

But he had sec. w. Susanna, tho. neither the d. of former w. nor m. of this is heard of, when he convey. his message to William Shattuck of W. and he rem. to Salisbury. Other ch. too he had, as Thomas, 29 May 1651; Martha, 21 Mar. 1654; and Samuel, 26 Feb. 1657, yet we may hardly be light to give the sec. w. more than the two last, or to deny her half a doz. His w. d. 16 Jan. 1680, and he d. 26 July 1691. JOHN, Charlestown 1632, was of Boston soon after, by w. Elizabeth had Priscilla, b. 28 Jan. 1655.

This brot. him acquaint. with Whiting of Boston; and both, by the intolerance of the High ch. party, were forc. to leave their places. In his wonted looseness the author of the Magn. makes him come in the same ship with Davenport, and says that his parents came after to our shore. Of them we never hear a word; and if we may not infer from silence of Winthrop wh. notes that ano. min. wh. was passeng. in the Hector with D. arr. 26 June 1637, was not C. or the Gov. would have nam. him, yet the New Haven tradit. as if the brother of their Gov.

We may see here how heedless. the town rec. was kept, as our municip. assurance for the former is--b. 7 (9) 1636, i. e. the day after she was bapt. and may doubt, whether that for the latter--14 (5) 1639, i. e. the same day as the bapt. be wholly trustworthy. Possib. this may be true, as we kn. that in the case of Dr. Franklin he had the benefit of so early sprinkl. yet prob. the distance from C.'s house to the ch. was much longer than that of the f. of F. but in the earlier case, we see its blunder, and can readily account for it.

C. were competent to such dealing in 1638, he was less than fourteen yrs. of age in May 1629, when W. was 20 yrs. older, as he had tak. his A. B. at Cambridge Univ. 1614; and both would surely have been jeer. by the lords of the forest for such attempt at a treaty. SAMUEL, Hampton, youngest s. of the preced. by w.

JACOB, Charlestown, s. prob. of Isaac of the same by w.

He had been a soldier in Moseley's comp. in the gr. Narraganset fight, 19 Dec. 1675. He d. of smallpox, as did, prob. all his ch. 1678. JAMES, Plymouth 1633, first occup. of the little hill, where the early pilgrims had been bur. was that yr. at Saco, perhaps, as in Haz. Coll. I. 326, or Folsom, 33, 125; by w.

JAMES, Swanzey, was a lieut. and Baylies says rep. 1690. He may have been the same as the foregoing. JOB, Duxbury, br. of Daniel, m. 15 May 1634, Rebecca, d. of William Collier, had John; Job; Daniel; and Rebecca, b. 26 Aug. 1654; seems to have been much giv. to migrat. was at Yarmouth, among the fencibles, 1643, again at D. 1646, at Eastham 1652; and his d. is not ment. but the w. or wid.

JOHN, Salisbury 1640-50, perhaps came in the Confidence, 1638, and d. 1682. JOHN, Lewis finds at Lynn 1642, and says he d. 8 Oct. 1703; but of w. or fam. nothing. JOHN, Boston, s. of Samuel of [[428]] the same, was, prob. b. in Eng. m. 30 Dec. 1651, Susanna, youngest ch. of William Hutchinson, wh. had been tak. by the Ind. 1643, when they k. her wid. mo. had Samuel, b. 24 Mar. 1656; Mary, 6 Oct. 1658; John, 23 Jan. 1660, prob. d. soon; Ann, 7 Mar. 1661; John, again, 17 Jan. 1666; Hannah, Dec. 1668; and William, 13 July 1671; perhaps Elisha, and other ch. whose names are not heard, rem. bef. 1664 to look after lds. of Hutchinson, to the Narraganset, when the jurisdict. of Conn. appoint. him and others to be magistr. there, and d. early in 1707. His w. Susanna and s. William had admin. JOHN, Eastham, s. prob. of Daniel, m. says Hamblen (in Geneal. Reg. VI. 44), 12, but Col.

His w. d. 27 Jan. 1717; and he d. 6 Jan. 1725. JOHN, Hartford, had Sarah, bapt. 7 Feb. 1647; and Mary, b. a. 27 June 1654, was constable 1657, and adm. freem. the same yr. d. 1685, in his will of 4 Aug. 1683 names ch. John, of Farmington, Samuel, and Nathaniel, of Hartford, Job, in Eng. Ann, w. of Andrew Benton, and Lydia, w. of John Wilson. JOHN, Wells 1653, perhaps s. of Thomas, d. 1661, or his inv. is produc. of 20 Apr. of that yr. JOHN, Boston, m. 10 Nov. 1659, Susanna, d. of Nicholas Upshur; but this rec. is more prob. of Joseph Cox, yet John and Susanna Cole by rec. had John, b. 22 Jan. 1661. JOHN, Hadley 1666, freem. that yr. is the same as Cowles. He was call. farmer, to disting. him from the other John, the carpenter, when both liv. at Hartford; and the object of change in surname was to prevent confus. but it has increas. the evil. As well as the carpenter John, this farmer had ch. John, Samuel, and perhaps others. JOHN, Salem, m. 28 May 1667, Mary Knight, had John, b. 18 Nov. foll.; Thomas, Nov. 1669, d. soon; Mary, 1 Sept. 1671; and Hannah, 12 Dec. 1674. JOHN, Duxbury, s. of Job, m. 21 Nov. 1667, Elizabeth Rider; but this man is very indistinct. seen in Winsor, 247. JOHN, Swanzey 1669. JOHN, Farmington, s. of John, the Hartford carpenter, may be the man, wh. by w. Rachel had John, aged 24; Rachel, perhaps wid. of Joseph Smith, 21; Samuel, 13; and Nathaniel, 11, when his will of Sept. 1689, and his inv. of Nov. foll. were brot. in. But no slight uncertain. attends his inquiry. Ano. JOHN of Farmington, perhaps s. of the Cowles farmer, had Dorothy, bapt. 3 July 1681; and Lydia, 22 Mar. 1685. Under Cowles the cloud may be scattered or increas. JOHN, Gloucester, by w. Mehitable had Daniel, b. 14 May 1669. JOHN, Pemaquid 1674. JOHN, Groton, had a d. perhaps Hepzibah, b. 20 Feb. 1672.

COLT, or COULT, JOHN, Windsor 1668, liv. to old age, had Sarah, bapt. at Hartford, says Hinman, 7 Feb. 1647, and sev. s. of wh. one or more sett. at Lyme. In his sec. Ed. 672-8, Hinman gives many names of descend. yet with no precis. of line. But the orig. is quite mythical. The sett. was b. in Colchester, Co. Essex, a. 50 ms. from London, came to Dorchester when a. 11 yrs. old, rem. to Hartford a. 1638, as says the book, with no inherent improb. but it is sure to encourage distrust of [[438]] such tale, that he is made gr.gr.gr.gr.s. of a peer of Eng. wh. was dispossesc. of his est. & c. Such examples may, I hope, be shun. and not imitat. Mr. Hinman had too respectab. a name to encourage the relat. of such old wives' invent.

GEORGE, Charlestown, d. 27 July 1659, was, perhaps only a transient man. JOHN, Plymouth, freem. 1633, is call. gent. next [[439]] yr. had w. Sarah, and s.

But the transer. in Essex Inst. II. 42 may be good, and the rec. bad, as to a ch. com. betw. Abigail and Hannah. JACOB, Plymouth, younger s. of Francis, b. in Holland, came with his mo. in the Ann, 1623, m. 1646, Damaris, d. of Stephen Hopkins, had Elizabeth b. 18 Jan. 1648, wh. m. a. 1667, John Dotey; Caleb, 29 Mar. 1651; Jacob, 26 Mar. 1633, and liv. to 1748; Mary. 12 Jan. 1658; Martha, 16 Mar. 1660; Francis, 5 Jan. 1663, d. soon, and Ruth, 17 Jan. 1666.

Perhaps he was the mariner, wh. m. Sarah, d. of Samuel Very of Salem, and she next m. a Stover. JOHN, Plymouth 1633, call. senr. prob. rem. 1643 to Rehoboth, is not kn. to have been relat. of the succeed. Perhaps he rem. to Warwick, was town serj. 1651, freem. there 1655, and prob. d. that yr. for his wid. Mary m. 1656, Thomas Relph. He left s. John, and d. Elizabeth wh. m. 24 Dec. 1666, John Harrod. JOHN, Plymouth, call. junr. s. of Francis, came with his f. in the Mayflower, was old eno. to be tax. in 1634 as high as either his f. or John senr. m. 28 Mar. 1634, Sarah, d. of Richard Warren, had four ch. liv. in 1650, says Bradford, 453; of wh. perhaps Esther, b. 16 Aug. 1650, was one; Mercy, 25 July 1654, ano. was Mary, 1657; at least one must have been m. and had more than one ch. to justify the extr. boast for old Francis to the letter, that in 1600 he "hath seen his children's childr. have childr." Jane, the sis. of John, had done her part for the blessing, I presume; and his d. Sarah m. 20 Nov. 1652, Arthur Hathaway; and Elizabeth m. 28 Nov. 1661, Daniel Wilcox. But in this branch the exult. phrase of Bradford fails of truth. He was deac. but disagreed with Reyner; rem. and was min. of Dartmouth 1676, of wh. he was one of the first purch. and rep. 1673; and was liv. 1694, the oldest surv. perhaps, of the male passeng. in the Mayflower; and d. 23 Nov. 1695.

He d. I suppose, in 1650, when his inv. was brot. in. JOHN, Ipswich 1664. JOHN, Portsmouth, R. I. 1655, of wh. I learn no more, unless that he had w. Ruth in 1682, then was 51 yrs. old, and John jr. prob. his s. was 26, and other s. Joseph and Thomas, beside sev. ds. and his will was record. 1691. As early as 1647 he was made one of two "water bailies" of the Col. if there be no mistake. One JOHN, a young man, Winthrop II. 97, says, was k. by accid. at Boston, 23 June 1643; and a JOHN was at Windsor 1644, wh. may have rem. to Stratford, and there was liv. 1667-77. JOHN, Portsmouth, R. I. s. of Thomas of the same, freem. 1678, was "licensed" 1688. tho. for what purpose I see not. He may have been one of the chief men at Tiverton or Dartmouth 1686; then having a fam. there. JOHN, Salem, m. 28 Dec. 1672, Mary, prob. d. of Anthony Buxton, had Mary, b. 11 Nov. 1673; John, 20 Aug. 1674; Elizabeth 7 Apr. 1676; Samuel, 3 Nov. 1678, d. next yr.; Joseph, 9 Mar. 1681; Hannah, 9 Sept. 1684; Lydia, 2 Mar. 1687; and Isaac, 16 Apr. 1689. JOHN, of Boston, was of the vestry of King's Chapel 1689; and a JOHN, a soldier in the comp. of Moseley, Dec. 1675, and again in Philip's war, 1676, at Hadley; may have been of Gloucester, m. 2 Feb. 1680, Mary Elwell, had John, b. 20 Nov. 1680; beside three wh. d. inf. and Mary, b. 1688. Babson thinks that his mo. was that wid. Rachel, wh. m. William Vinson, but his f. is unkn. JOHN, Middletown, at his d. 16 Jan. 1705, left ch. John, and Mary of full age; Daniel, 14 yrs.; Sarah, 12; Ebenezer, 7. His w. Hannah, d. of capt. Daniel Harris, could not have been the first. His will was made 15 Aug. 1698. JOHN, [[448]] Warwick, perhaps s. of that John, whose wid. m. 1656, Thomas Relph, went to New Providence, and there had childr. as his w. Phebe alleg. when in 1684 she obt. divorce from him. JOHN, Hampton, m. 26 Nov. 1686, Mary Downs. JOHN, Windsor, s. perhaps of Nathaniel of the same, m. 1688, Sarah Fiske of Wenham, had John, b. 1692; and no more is seen of him. JOSEPH, Cambridge, elder br. of George, came in the Defence, 1635, aged 27. They were of Earl's Colne in Essex, and there had enjoy. the spiritual guidance of Shepard, wh. came in the same wh. freem. 3 Mar. 1636, rep. 1636-40, ar. co. 1640, had w. Elizabeth and ch.

I think it not unlikely, that after admin. on his br.'s est. he went home. JOSEPH, Cambridge, s. of the preced., H. C. 1660 or 61, remarkab. as it seems that so early in the exist. of the coll. ea. yr. should be entit. to one of this name, perhaps it may seem that the other was s. of Richard. But it is more strange that of neither is the date of death mark. in our catal. although both were gone in 1698. He m. 4 Dec. 1665, Martha, d. of John Stedman, had John, bapt. 26 Jan. 1668; and Joseph, a. 1671; beside Alice, prob. youngest ch. wh. m. a. 1694, Rev. John Whiting, and next, 19 May 1701, Rev. Timothy Stevens and bore childr. to both. JOSEPH, Wells, sw. alleg. 1680. JOSEPH, Portsmouth, R. I. perhaps s. of John of the same, was rep. 1704.

JOSIAH, Eastham, perhaps s. of the preced. m. 27 July 1668, Deborah Hopkins, had Elizabeth b. 12 Oct. 1669, d. in 6 mos.; Josiah, 12 Nov. 1670; Richard, 1 Sept. 1672; Elizabeth again, June 1674; Caleb, 15 Nov. 1676; Deborah, 13 Feb. 1679; Joshua, 4 Feb. 1683; and Benjamin, 28 Apr. 1687. JOSIAH, Windsor, youngest ch. of Nathaniel of the same, by w. Ruth had Josiah, b. 1690; Ruth, 1692; and William, 1695. His w. d. 1697, and he m. 1703, Sarah, but, perhaps, had no more ch. MOSES, Westfield, s. of first Aaron, m. 25 Nov. 1669, Elizabeth d. of Hon. Daniel Clark, had Elizabeth b. 23 Aug. 1673, and Moses, 17 Apr. 1675. He was k. in Philip's war 1676.

He was adm. freem. of Conn. 1650, and d. 19 May 1688. The wid. d. 14 June 1698. Sarah m. 30 June 1670, Samuel Baker; Lydia d. unm. bef. [[449]] 24 yrs.; Hannah m.

NATHANIEL, Windsor, s. of the preced. had Nathaniel, b. 6 Apr. 1689; Sarah, 10 Feb. 1691; Ebenezer, June 1692; Daniel, 9 Jan. 1694; Lydia, 13 Mar. 1696 or 7; Mary, 16 Jan. 1701; Richard, 30 Aug. 1703; Abigail, 12 Jan. 1706; Elizabeth 3 Oct. 1707; Jemima, 23 Sept. 1709; Benjamin, 26,Mar. 1711; Joseph, 1 Apr. 1713; and Aaron, 2 Apr. 1715. Stiles has not nam. the w. or was. that bore these; but ment. the d. of the f. 28 Feb. 1725. NOAH, Northampton, s. of first Aaron, liv. at Hartford first, there m. Sarah, prob. d. of Joseph Nash, had Joseph, b. a. 1680; Sarah, a. 1682; Elizabeth a. 1685; and at N. had Mary, 12 Mar. 1686; Noah, 1688; Miriam, 30 Sept. 1690; Eliakim, 6 May 1693; Esther, 21 May 1695; and Aaron, 3 Oct. 1697; and d. 1 June 1699. PEYTON, Saco 1635, call. gent. was clk. of the assemb. of Lygonia 1648. Folsom, 32. PHILIP, Cambridge, freem. 1647, d. 10 Feb. 1667, by w. Mary, d. of Barnabas Lamson, had Mary, b. 26 July 1652; Philip, 19 Aug. 1654; Samuel; Hannah, 4 July 1657; and Sarah; all, exc. Philip, wh. prob. d. young, bapt. at C.; also Philip, again, bapt. 5 May 1661; John, 30 Aug. 1663; and Barnabas, 4 June 1665; as in matchless Mitchell's reg. appears. But it must be, that he had two ds. nam. Hannah, for town rec. shows d. of Hannah, 13 July 1654, and b. of Samuel, 1655. Sarah d. 12 May 1661. His will, of 18 July bef. his d. dispos. of ch. John, 3 yrs. old; Philip, 5; and Hannah, 9; leav. wid. Mary, to bring up others to trades. A discrepance betw. Mitchell and the inscript. on gr.stone of sec. Philip may be obs. if Harris, 57, has correctly giv. it, that he d. 25 Mar. 1718, aged 55 yrs. 10 mos. 25 days, so that by such comput. he was born 30 Apr. 1662. l?rob. the gr.stone is false, Mitchell may be foll. and we may suppose he was bapt. at 5 days old. RALPH, Charlestown 1640, may have had w. Sarah, adm. of the ch. 30 Nov. 1643. RICHARD, Charlestown, came in the Jonathan, 1639, aged 31, join. with the ch. 30 May 1641, liv. on Malden side, had w. Frances, and d. Mary, b. May 1649; was of friends of M. Matthew's preaching, and d. 14 Oct. 1658. His will names ch. of his w. by former h. Isaac, Thomas, Elizabeth and Sarah, Wheeler; but I think the s. were b. in Eng. Elizabeth m. 12 Sept. 1659, William Greene; and Sarah m. 18 Dec. 1660, John Greene. His wid. m. 5 Sept. 1659, Thomas Green; and his only d. Mary m. 1666, Samuel Green. RICHARD, Boston, tailor, came, it is said, from Gloucestersh. freem. 4 Mar. 1635, ar. co. 1643, lieut. 1656, rep. for Dover 1670; by w. Elizabeth had Elhanan, b. 30 June, bapt. 17 July 1636, d. Nov. foll.; Elisha, bef. ment. 16 Sept. bapt. 5 Nov. 1637, H. C. 1657; Elkanah, bapt. 12 Apr. 1640, but the town rec. gives a false date of b.; Joseph, b. 2, bapt. 8 May 1642, wh. may have been H. C. 1660, or 61; and Benjamin, bapt. 4 Aug. 1644, a. 5 days old, d. May foll. His will, made 18 Dec. 1671, pro. 25 Dec. 1673, names w. Elizabeth and only ch. Elisha, beside brs. William and Walter in Eng. His wid. d. 7 Oct. 1690, in 75th yr. RICHARD, Norwich, had gr. of lot 1680, in the part now Preston, and s. Obed, [[450]] b. 1 Feb. 1681. ROBERT, Charlestown, freem. 2 June 1641, by w. Sarah had Samuel, b. 10 Aug. 1644. I feel some hesitat. in this case, whether he and Richard were not one, for Richard is not in the Col. rec. as freem. which would not, however, be very surpris. tho. rather observ.; but how Robert, whose name is not found in the ch. was adm. freem. is strange. ROBERT, Portsmouth, R. I. m. 5 Dec. 1678, Tamar, d. of John Tyler of Bristol, had Mary, b. 27 June 1682; Miriam, 9 Dec. 1689; and Samuel, 19 Dec. 1695. ROGER, Marshfield 1613. SAMSON, Gloucester, d.

Mary Ives, Judith, Isaac, Joseph, Hope, Israel, Mabel, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Elizabeth A sec. w. Mary, he had, but we kn. not, wh. of these ch. if any, were hers.

Sewall's fondness for instances of unusual longevity, refers to his diary, as saying he was 110. Perhaps this is mistake. In the diary of Marshall, call. Fairfield's by Dr. Harris, when he present. it to the Hist. Soc.

Jonathan, 6 Apr. 1672. The former ch. of 1670 may have soon d. and Moses be a false entry. Yet it is doubtful. He was a soldier in Philip's war, 1676, prob. impress.; represent. in a petit. that his wages will not maintain w. and two ch. Many ch. he had, of wh. descend. are spread. A Jonathan, prob. his s. was of New London aft. 1700, had been at Stonington, m. 18 Aug. 1690, but he may have been s. of the rul. Elder.

COSIN, COZENS, or COUSINS, ABRAHAM, Sherborn, m. at Woburn, 19 Nov. 1684, Mary Eames, had Abraham, b. 22 Aug. 1685; Isaac, 2 June 1688; Jacob, and Joseph, tw. 13 Aug. 1692; and Mary, 10 May 1695. Morse thinks him s. of Isaac of Rowley, and that he had serv. in the war against Philip. Tho. the two points are not utterly inconsist. I look on their concur. as improb. EDMUND, Boston, liv. at Pulling point, m. 1656 or 7, Margaret Bird, serv. to John Grover of Rumney marsh. FRANCIS, was of ar. co. 1640. GEORGE, whose name is Coussens in the custom ho. rec. came in the James from Southampton to Boston, arr. 3 June 1635. ISAAC, Rowley, a. 1650, was from Marlborough, in Wilts, went to New London, where he had a gr. of lot, 1651, but did not take it, and went back to R.; had w. Ann in 1658, on the Boston rec. of m.

John Angier, with his w. and ch. all liv. at his ho. and kinswom. Martha Mellowes, wh. I judge to be wid. of Abraham. But the name of gr.ch.

A letter to his wid. at Plymouth by his neph. Cotton Mather, of 23 Oct. foll. ment. arr. of news that "the horrible plague of Barbados was brot. into" C. "by an infected vessel," that a. the end of Sept. it had been there little above a fortnight, yet in this little time "had made an incredible destruct." "many above an hundred were dead," and that his friends wrote "that all the ministers in C. were dead." Whether in this incredible loss, all the ministers were one, or two, beside Cotton, is not told; but in so small a city, I judge the smaller number most worthy of belief. Mather never cultivat. precision or sobriety of narrat. and his word must seldom be tak. as exact truth. No exagger. of the suffer. in the gr. mart of Mediterranean commerce, by the terrible plague of 1720, was attempt. when history told how M. de Belsance stood in his post of duty, and outliv. the peril more than thirty-five yrs. tho. our great ethical poet immortaliz. the deed, without nam. the prelate: Why drew Marseilles' good bishop purer breath, When Nature sickened, and each gale was death ?

Coll. in 1692, left for ill health, went to Eng. and Holland to acq. skill in medicine, had a degr. in it, and was a physician at the Isle of Wight. But in the Diary of his neph. the dilig. Reg. of Plymouth, he is said to have been a min. sett. at Warminster, in Wilts, and d. 1753. In the copious progeny of famous Cotton, of the sec. and third generat. it is quite observ. how small is the proportion of those wh. pass. mid. age. THOMAS, Roxbury, had Thomas, b. 21 Apr. 1664, may be he wh. d. at Chelmsford, 30 Sept. 1687.

Martha, had Caleb, b. 15 Aug. 1666, was of Brookfield 1673, there k. by the Ind. 2 Aug. 1675. Perhaps he and his br. were brot. by sis. Mary, wh. m. John Lake of B. WILLIAM, was one of the first sett. 1637, at Taunton. COYTEMORE, THOMAS, Charlestown 1636, s. of wid. Catharine C. whose fam. name was Myles, and her sec. h. Rowland C. but by former h. a Gray, she had Parnell, w. of Increase Nowell, and Catharine, w. of Thomas Graves; and by Coytemore, Elizabeth wh. was first w. of William Tyng; all m. in Eng. bef. she came. Mr. Frothingham, 86, gives her ano. d. Sarah, wh. m. a Williams. She made her will 28 Apr. 1658, and d. 28 Nov. 1659. He was of ar. co. 1639, freem. 13 May 1640, selectman and rep. that yr. and once or twice aft. was master of good est. an enterpriz. merch. went in sev. voyages to distant lds. and was lost on a voyage to Malaga by shipwr. 27 Dec. 1645, on the coast of Spain by w. Martha, d. of Capt. Rainsborough, m. doubtless in Eng. had Thomas, b. 25 Feb. 1642, bapt. next day; and William, 6 Feb. 1643 [[468]] d. in six days. His inv. shows £1266, 9, 7. His wid. m. Dec. 1647, Gov. Winthrop, brot. him s. Joshua, wh. d. within two yrs. and m. next, 10 Mar. 1651, John Coggan, bore him Joshua, Caleb, and Sarah; and after his d. in 1658, wish. to be m. again, as relat. by Rev. John Davenport; and, it is said, poison. hers. for ill success. The will of his mo. aids our research for genealogy. Its date is 30 Apr. 1658, and names the four ch. of William Tyng, wh. had m. her eldest d. Elizabeth; five of Increase Nowell; five of Thomas Graves; wh. were all the liv. gr.ch.; besides the ds. Sarah Williams, to wh. she gave ld. at Woburn; Parnell Nowell; and Catharine Graves, as also, Martha, the wid. of Coggran, wh. had bef. been wid. of her s. Thomas, and of Gov. Winthrop. CRABB, HENRY, Boston, m. 1 Jan. 1658, Hannah, d. of Thomas Emmons, had Samuel, b. 23 Dec. 1659, nam. in the will of his gr.f. E. 20 Jan. 1661. JOHN, Dorchester 1630, came, I presume, in the Mary and John, req. 19 Oct. to be made freem. but prob. went home soon, at least never took the o.; tho. Dr. Harris, wh. finds him in town rec. 1632, says he rem. to Conn. As this could not be bef. 1635, it is liable to doubt. RICHARD, Wethersfield, was rep. 1639, 40, and 1; sold est. 1643, and rem. prob. to Stamford, and in 1655 was of Greenwich. See Hinman, 127. CRABTREE, JOHN, Boston 1639, a joiner, by w. Alice had John, b. 25 Oct. 1639; and Deliverance, 3 Sept. 1641, d. within two yrs. He d. late in 1656, and his wid. m. 11 Feb. 1657, Joshua Hewes. JOHN, Swanzey 1683, perhaps s. of the preced. m. Mary, 1 Nov. of that yr. had Mary, b. 20 May of that yr. wh. d. in six days, if the Col. Rec. be proof; but she prob. was sec. or third w. for the same Col. Rec. shows he had Benjamin, b. 12 Oct. 1673. CRACKBONE, GILBERT, Dorchester, freem. 7 Dec. 1636, rem. soon to Cambridge, had, perhaps, the four, whose d. is on rec. Mary, 30 May; Judith, 1 July, both of 1655; Hannah, 24 Sept. 168; and Benjamin, 27 Apr. 1661; yet we kn. not, wh. was mo. of either. But as he m. 17 June 1656, Elizabeth Cooledge, it is clear the first two were by former w.; and of the last nam. we may doubt for two reasons, that in his reg. matchless Mitchell says: "his s. Benjamin was a. 5 or 6 yrs. old, when his f. join. here," tho. he leaves it uncert. how old he was when that was it. still we might infer, that he was contin. in life. Next, we kn. that one Benjamin C. was k. by the Ind. 4 Sept. 1675 at Northfield, under capt. Beers, and prob. was this man's s. He d. 9 Jan. 1672. His will, of 28 Dec. with codic. of 2 Jan. preced. names s. Benjamin, and his ch. Joseph and Sarah. His wid. was Elizabeth CRACKSTONE, or CRAXTON, JOHN, Plymouth, came in the Mayflower 1620, with s. of the same name, d. bef. end of Mar. foll. JOHN, Plymouth, s. of the preced. had his sh. in div. of ld. as a comer in the [[469]] Mayflower, 1624, and in 1627 in the div. of cattle with the comp. of Allerton; but d. in the foll. yr. from a fever brot. on by freez. his feet, when lost in the woods, as Bradford tells. CRADDING, WILLIAM, Taunton 1638. CRAFORD, or CRAFFORD, JOHN, Dover 1671, liv. with w. Elizabeth some yrs. later at Portsmouth. MORDECAI, Salem, in 1663 had w. Judith. MUNGO, Boston 1686, a Scotchm. had been some yrs. here, apprent. or a serv. of John Smith, the mason, and this yr. was allow. to be an inhab. By w. Mary he had Elizabeth b. 19 May 1681, wh. d. young; was, I believe, among the adher. of Andros, imprison. Apr. 1689, but did not go home, and is among the tax. 1695; by sec. w. Susanna had only ch. Mary, wh. m. Stephen Paine; and d. 1712. The inv. of £109, 9, 10, had drugs and medicines for two fifths. His wid. Susanna made her will 27 Aug. 1713, pro. 15 Sept. aft. mak. d. Mary and her h.

Samuel was excor. he names Abigail, wh. had first m. 24 Jan. 1651, John Ruggles, as w. of Edward Adams; Hannah, as w. of Nathaniel Wilson; and gr.ch. Ephraim, s. of John. Apostle Eliot spells his name Crofts; in some other rec. e is used for s final; and often the first five letters made the name. JOHN, Roxbury, eldest s. of the preced. m. 7 June 1654, Rebecca Wheelock, prob. d. of Ralph, had John, b. 5 Aug. 1658, wh. was drown. 5 May 1684, I think, unm.; Rebecca, 28 Aug. 1660; Mary, 16 Oct. 1662; wh. three were bapt. 17 May 1663; and Joseph, 5 May 1666, d. at two mos.

He rem. to [[470]] Deerfield among the early sett. a. 1673, but aft. the destruct. of that town by the Ind. in Philip's war, he was a short time at Roxbury again, and soon rem. to Hatfield, thence to Wethersfield, where he was in 1702. SAMUEL, Roxbury, br. of the preced. freem. 1671, m. 16 Oct. 1661, Elizabeth Seaver, had Hannah, b. 14 Dec. 1662; Samuel, 24 May 1664, d. soon; Elizabeth 2 Oct. 1665; Samuel, again, 16 June 1667; Joseph, 13 July 1669; Mary, 15 Oct. 1671; Abigail, 1 Dec. 1673; Nathaniel, 4 Jan. 1677; and Benjamin, 23 Oct. 1683; and d. 9 Dec. 1709.

Cromwell. CRANBERRY, NATHANIEL, k. by the Ind. at Deerfield, Sept. 1675, was, prob. a soldier. CRANCH, ANDREW, New Hampsh. b. a. 1646, was of gr. jury 1684 and 5. CRANDALL, EBER, Westerly, s. of the first John, had three ws. as from his will of 22 Aug. 1727 may be presum. for aft. nam. w. Mary, he adds ch.

BENJAMIN, Milton, perhaps s. of the preced. was a soldier in the comp. of brave capt. Johnson, and wound. in the desperate battle of 19 Dec. 1675 at the Narraganset swamp. CHRISTIAN, Cambridge 1647. But I doubt, that Farmer was delud. into deriv. this name from Christopher Cane, wh. see. HENRY, Dorchester 1658 in Milton 1667-77, m. a d. of Stephen Kingsley.

JOHN, Dover, adm. an inhab. 24 Apr. 1636, but, perhaps, as no more is heard of him there, he rem. to Roxbury. JOHN, Stratford 1650-85. Trumbull, I. 105, says he came from Roxbury; and he had John, b.

Thomas Welles, bear. to him sev. ch. and, next, m. 19 Mar. 1663, John Wilcockson. Almost every word of Trumbull, and of Cothren, borro. from T. in relat. to the Roxbury deriv. of John, and William, is wrong; and must have been a tradit. of the mid. of the eighteenth century. Yet a true John of S. by w. Elizabeth wh. d. as Cothren tells, 1682, beside that John of 1642, had Israel, Apr. 1644; Elizabeth May 1647 (wh. by the tradit. bec. w. of John Welles, eldest s. of the Gov. bore him one s. in 1648, the yr. aft. her own b. and tw. 1651); Thomas, Jan. 1649; Joseph, Nov. 160; Benjamin, Sept. 1652; and [[486]] Hannah, Feb. 1654 or 5. None of this must be reject. but perhaps when Cothren add, that he d. 6 Dec. 1707, aged 96 yr. and that his wid. Margaret d. 1714, acquiesc. of our judgm. would not be so easy.

Peter Bacon of Taunton. John was on service in Philip's war. Ebenezer m. a d. of Bacon, but was weak, and his est. was in his mo.'s hands, not manag. by him, as Deane tells. Deborah m. 1666, Thomas Woodworth. Experience, and Ichabod, also, had s. of same names. JOHN, Reading, freem. 1645, had John, wh. d. 14 Jan. 1652, and John, again, b. 18 Mar. 1652; d.

ZACHARY, Scituate, s. of John of the same, serv. in Philip's war, m. 1679, Martha, d. of Walter Woodworth, had many ch. whose names Deane kn. not; and d. 1730. In the Reading fam. the m. is doubled.

Samuel Oldham; one, perhaps Elizabeth perhaps Deliverance, m. Daniel Woodward; and Sarah m. Samuel Hyde. The time of his d. by a fall in his barn, is giv. 2 Apr. 1690, but the partit. of est. was not bef. 15 Apr. 1695, when div. to wid. and four s. beside Oldham, Woodward, and Hyde is found. Thirteen of this fam. had been gr. in 1839 at Harv. and thirteen at other N. E. coll. DAND, JOHN, Boston 1641, clk. in the prothonotary's office (but I hear not where), gave much trouble by join. others in petit. for enlargem. of privilege 1645. Winslow describes him as liv. in ano. man's house at board hire. He was not a freeholder. See our Gen. Court's Declarat. in Hutch. con. 211, one of the most curious papers in that invalua. collect. We might presume, on his ill-success in Mass., that he went home, but Farmer says he was of Dover 1654. Winthrop II. 262, 92-5. The learned auth. of "Gens Sylvestrina," one of the most agreeable books of genealogy ever print. says, the Dands were "the most considerable fam. in the sixteenth cent. at Mansfield in Nottinghamsh." Yet they were mercers, as he tells. DANDY, WILLIAM, Charlestown, prob. call. Davy in Frothingham, 181, was in 1680 one of the tythingmen of the town. See Dady. DANE, DANIEL, Andover, s. prob. of Rev. Francis, by w. Deliverance [[6]] had Nathaniel, b. 26 Mar. 1684. But he had liv. at Concord, was one of the tythingmen there 1680. FRANCIS, Andover, s. of John of Roxbury, b. in Eng. was of Ipswich 1648, and soon after ord. sec. min. of A. was brot. by his f. 1636, it is said, in the same ship with Nathaniel Rogers, wh. was half a yr. on her passage from London to Boston; by w. Elizabeth d of Edmund Ingalls, m. bef. he went to A. wh. d. 9 June 1676, were all his ch. prob. b. but we have not their names or dates, with exactness; yet two, Nathaniel, and Elizabeth were b. perhaps bef. his ordin. Besides these, he had, also, Albert, and two nam. Francis, wh. all d. young; Hannah, wh. m. 14 Nov. 1666, William Goodhue; Phebe m. 30 May 1671, Joseph Robinson; Abigail m. 12 Oct. 1675, Francis Faulkner; and Francis, again. He m. sec. w. 22 Nov. 1677, Mary Thomas, wh. d. 18 Feb. 1689; and, third, Hannah, wid. of George Abbot, wh. surv. to June 1711. He d. 17 Feb. 1697, aet. 82. He was in danger from the cruel infatua. of 1692, when others of high rank fled from the suspicion of witchcraft, and of his humbler neighb. sheep of his fold, innocent of the nonsense as hims. not a few suffer. Hutch. Il. 38. FRANCIS, Andover, s. of the preced. m. 16 Nov. 1681, Hannah Poor, freem. 1691, d. 1738, aet. 81, leav. Francis, John, Joseph, and Daniel. JOHN, Roxbury, from Co. Essex, Eng. came 1636, bring. ch. of a dec. w. Francis, Elizabeth and John; was perhaps the freem. of 2 June 1641, m. 2 July 1643, Ann, or Hannah, or Annis, wid. of William Chandler, and d. says town rec. bur. says the ch. rec. 14 Sept. 1658. His will, of a week preced. pro. 16 Oct. names only those ch. of wh. he calls Elizabeth Howe, perhaps w. of the sec. Abraham of Roxbury. Perhaps he had rem. a short time to Ipswich, and came back to R. His wid. had third h. John Parmenter of Sudbury, and d. 15 Mar. 1683. JOHN, Ipswich, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. at Colchester 1613, perhaps came to Roxbury 1636, with his f. freem. 2 June 1641, unless that name in the rec. of the Col. apply to his f. and he be freem. of 1682, was a surgeon, d. 29th Sept. 1684, leav. good est. for that day; had Mary b. 1639, wh. m. 24 Aug. 1658, William Chandler of Andover, wh. was s. of her gr.f.'s sec. w. His will names w. two s. John, and Philemon, ds. Elizabeth and Sarah, gr.ch. Mary Chandler, and Daniel Hovey. In the close investigat. of recent days it is found, that Elizabeth m. Reginald Foster; Sarah m. 23 Sept. 1668, Daniel Warner; and a d. Rebecca m. James Hovey, wh. perhaps was the man k. by the Ind. at Brookfield, 2 Aug. 1675. The deficiency of Ipswich rec. leaves all else unkn. but he was ancest. of Hon. Nathan, H. C. 1778, LL. D. of Beverly, disting. in jurisprud. and of Hon. Joseph, H. C. 1799, of Maine. NATHANIEL, Andover, s. of Rev. Francis, m. 12 Dec. 1672, Deliverance, d. of Robert Hazeltine, had Nathaniel, d. 16 Oct. 1674; and Francis, d. 3 Nov. 1679; prob. others; and d. 1725, aet. 80. His wife was imprison. on charge of witchcr, 1692; and when innocence would not avail, sav. her life by false confession of guilt. On either plea, guilty or not, the father of lies was sure to triumph. PHILEMON, Ipswich, s. of sec. John, freem. 1674, was a physician, m. 7 [[7]] Oct. 1685, Mary Thompson; and 25 Dec. 1690, took sec. w. Ruth, d. of James Converse of Woburn, and d. 18 Oct. 1716. Of his ch. Mary; Philemon, b. 1693, d. next yr.; Philemon, again, and Edward, tw. 17 July 1695; and Ruth, 24 Aug. 1698; no doubt of the mo. can be felt, unless the first may have been by former w. THOMAS, Concord, had, I suppose, by w. Elizabeth a d. b. 24 Feb. 1643, and certain. by her had Hannah, 18 Mar. 1645, if this be the real name of him print. Dann in Geneal. Reg.

Samuel, ord. 28 June 1682, seventh min. of that ch. m. 21 Nov. 1682, Elizabeth (but in Geneal. Reg. VII. 58, call. Hetty), d. of James Minot, wh. d. 6 June 1722; and he d. 26 May 1730. His age has been overstated by 8 yrs. in Dr. Harris and others. He had Elijah, b. 1683, H. C. 1703, d. 8 Oct. 1736 ; John, 26 Jan. 1689, d. 2 Mar. 1729; and (beside Mehitable, whose gr.stone tells, that she d. 1 May 1727, in 27th yr.), Samuel, H.

He was, perhaps, freem. 1652, the first capt. of B. rep. 1684, disting. as surveyor of ld. town clk. 20 yrs. and d. 7 Sept. 1712, leav. wid. his sec. w.

But in the Diary of Noadiah Russell, Geneal. Reg. VII. 57, it is told, that he d. 13 Nov. 1682. Yet this may easily be reconcil. by supposing Russell to mean the s. of Thomas, not of Jonathan; tho Bond mistook him for the latter. * NICHOLAS, Cambridge, from Framlingham, Co.

Ellis in Hist. of Roxbury, p. 96, notes the d. as 1674, and the ch. as twelve, in both points foll. Farmer, and wisely repudiating the town rec. that makes it 1673. In both he is foll. Geneal. Reg. VII. 317 by a writer of scrupulous accuracy wh., however, miscounted his yrs. Farmer, Ellis, and Harris must, I presume, include a posthum. ch. as in the will anticipat.; and yet none of them give the name. His will, pro. 24 Dec. 1674, was made, say the witnesses, "The day immediately preced. his d." but we must go behind them to kn. the mo. or yr. His wid. m. Ruck, says Farmer, in Mem. of Harv.

Mr. Haven, the accomplish. editor of Archaeologia Americana, Vol. III. in prelimin. rem. cxxxvi. corrects that looselessn. of the Magnalia as to the mayor of Coventry; yet falls into slight error as to the coming of this famous divine. On p. lxxxv. he says: "When the times grew favorable for the Puritans he return. to Eng." from his refuge in Holland; but more exact expression should be, in my judgm. thus: "As the times grew not favorable for the Puritans, he ret. no more to Eng." exc. to emb. privily, perhaps without landing, for he dared not appear in London.

He was at New Haven eager in defence of Goffe and Whalley, the regicides in 1661, and perhaps much aid. in their escape. Yet a most curious, if not characteristic, letter from him furnishes no small light to the hist. of his acting giv. by Dr. Stiles, as it tends to exculpate, or inculpate, him, according to the eyes with wh. it is read, in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 327. With his name is frequent. assoc. that of a cous. possib. a br. Christopher, b. 1598, a Catholic priest of great learning not a Jesuit, under the name of Santa Clara, wh. d. 31 May 1680. Mather, III. 52, denies that he was a br." as a certain Woodden Historian, in his Athenae Oxon. has report." By this merciless punishm. of honest Anthony, the immortal author of the Magnalia fully proves how much better qualif. he was for executioner than judge. We kn. no ch. but John, call. only s.

JOSEPH, perhaps of Roxbury, there m. 28 Oct. 1670, Sarah Chamberlain, but I kn. not, that either belong. in that place. In the neighb. Joseph, of Muddy riv. had Mehitable, b. 3 Feb. 1685. Possib. he may be the man nam. in the letter of Rev. Edmund Browne, to Gov. Leverett, pr. in Geneal. Reg. VII. 268, as Daby. JOSEPH, Barnstable, prob. s. of John of the same, m. 28 Mar. 1682, Mary, d. of James Claghorn, had Simeon, b. 19 Jan. 1683; Mary, June 1685; Joseph, Apr. 1687; and Robert, 13 June 1689.

LAWRENCE, Falmouth [[20]] 1662, had Rachel, b. 1663; Jacob; and perhaps others, rem. to Ipswich during the first Ind. war, but came back 1681, but no more is told, only that Rachel m. 1.

MOSES, Dover, s. of John of the same, m. 16 Jan. 1681, Ruhamah Dow of Haverhill, and there had John, b. 4 Jan. 1682; and Moses, 2 Nov. 1686; beside Jabez; and Ebenezer, 10 June 1702, both at Dover; ana both f. and s.

NATHANIEL, Mass. came in the Mary and John, or perhaps the Hercules, hav. qualif. hims. by tak. o. of alleg. and suprem. 16 Apr. 1634, but where he sat down I find not. See Geneal. Reg. IX. 268. NATHANIEL, Charlestown 1677, s. of Barnaby, had m. 31 Mar. 1675, Mary Convers, wh. d. 6 Nov. 1690, aged 36; and m. 15 July 1692, Mary, d. of Joshua Edmunds, wh. d. 18 Apr. 1721, aged 65.

NICHOLAS, Charlestown, came in the Planter early in 1635, aged 40, with Sarah, 48, prob. his w. and Joseph, 13, perhaps his s. with four serv. whose names are then giv. was in 1640 one of the promoters of sett. of Woburn, where his w. Sarah d. 24 May 1643,and he m. 12 July foll. Elizabeth wid. of Joseph Isaacs; prob. he rem. to York, and was there in 1652. His will, of 27 Apr. 1667, pro. 12 Mar. 1670, refers not to any s. yet opens many remote relations, or perhaps those of his w. as cous. Barnard, the w. of Matthew of Boston; cous. William Locke of Woburn (spel. Owborne); d. Astine's (or Austin's) childr. Mary and Sarah, beside Mary, Elizabeth and Mehitable Dodd. NICHOLAS, Barnstable, able to bear arms 1643, when he is last on the list, so that possib. it may be an error, as Hamblen puts him into a list of inhabs. adm. after 1660. He may have been of Newport 1638, and there learn. the strange policy of toleration in relig. In Sewel, I. 388, it is said he favor. the Quakers at their first coming. He had w. Mary, and was banish. from Mass. for his peaceful pravity. At Newport he was drown. bef. 24 July 1672, as Roger Williams in his big book against the Quakers, p. 26, tells that in his public conference, there, with the friends of George Fox, he made good use of the event. PHILIP, Plymouth 1638, rem. to Duxbury after. Farmer MS. PHILIP, Hartford, came, perhaps, in the Confidence from Southampton 1638, aged 12; but if so, be prob. was first at Newbury, where William Ilsley, with wh. he came, pitched his tent. He m. a d. of Thomas Coleman of Hadley, was freem. of Conn. 1656, and d. 1689, had two ds. but no s. RICHARD, Ipswich 1642. RICHARD, Roxbury, m. a 1654, Sarah, d. of John Burrill, had Richard, b. 5 Jan. 1658, wh. d. next yr.; Richard, again, 26 May 1661; and Sarah; and he d. 6 Mar. 1663, his will of 20 Feb. [[21]] being pro. 19 Mar. of that yr. But there was a posthum. ch. and the wid. m. Samuel Chandler in 1664, and d. in Aug. 1665. ROBERT, Sudbury, came in 1638, aged 30 with Margaret perhaps his sis. 26 (wh. m. a Burnett), in the Confidence of Southampton, as serv. of Peter Noyes, had w. Bridget wh. surv. ds. Sarah, b. 10 Apr. 1646; and Rebecca; and d. 19 July 1655. His will is of 17 July and pro. 2 Oct. of that yr. ROBERT, Yarmouth 1643, or earlier, had Deborah, b.

Perhaps Sarah m. 23 Oct. 1679, Joseph Young. SAMUEL, Watertown, rem. early in 1646 to Boston, had w. Ann wh. a. soon; and m. 20 July 1651, Sarah, d. of Richard Thayer of B. had Samuel, b. 22 Mar. 1654; William, 4 Sept. 1656, d. next yr.; and Sarah, 19 Dec. 1657, wh. d. Aug. foll.; beside Zechariah, 29 July 1659. But in Geneal. Reg. XV. 133, his surname is wild. turn to Doves. Prob. he is the freem. of 1645, and perhaps br. of George. It may be, that his wid. m. 6 May 1663, Jonathan Hayward. SAMUEL, Groton, by w. Mary had a d. b. 31 Jan. 1662; John, 10 Mar. 1664; Sarah, 12 Aug. 1667 ; Samuel, 10 Jan. 1669, Barnabas, 17 Apr. 1672 ; and a d. 10 Apr. 1674; and d. 28 Dec. 1699. SAMUEL, Salisbury, m. 19 Dec. 1663, Deborah, d. of William Barnes, had Samuel, b. 26 Jan. 1667. Perhaps he was of Amesbury, there took o. of alleg. 20 Dec. 1677.

I presume this is the man, by Felt insert. as of Lynn, m. 11 Jan. 1666, Mary Meddowes. Geneal Reg. V. 96. SAMUEL, Roxbury, perhaps s. of William of the same, rem. to Northampton 1668, was freem. 1676, had two ws. of wh. sec. was Elizabeth d. of William Smead, m. 1681; and he d. 26 July 1690, leav. beside three ds.

He brot. says Coffin, w. Christian from Eng. and his posterity is num. This name among the passeng. from Southampton in the James, by rec. at State Paper off. Somerby read Thomas James. It seems a wild error of his or mine; but if my read. be correct, his surname may be that of the ship. THOMAS, Saco, an early sett. assessed towards pub. worship 1636. THOMAS, Boston, s. of William, m. 12 Sept. 1689, Hannah Allen (wid. of one whom no research of mine, or even of Shurtleff, can identify), d. of Gov. Leverett, had Thomas, the Secr. of the Prov. of New Hamp. 1692. The late, beloved, John Davis, editor of Morton's Memo. Presid. of the Mass. Hist. Soc. above forty yrs. judge of the Distr.

The Book of possessions in early days shows W. sen. and W. jr. in Boston, but wh. was f. of these ch. is to be determin. I fear, only by conject. One was a gunsmith, and one was d. 10 Nov. 1655, when Isaac Collamore gave in the inv. of his est. only £7. His wid. Mary soon m. John Cowdall WILLIAM, New Haven 1639, had John, H.

WILLIAM, Roxbury, perhaps a of William the first of Boston, had Mary, b. 28 Mar. 1669; Ann, 24 Dec. 1670; next rec. of 1672 gives him Benjamin, 31 May, and Rachel, 26 Aug. but wh. rec. of the two is false is uncert.; perhaps the yr. 1674 is omit. for the latter ch Ichabod, 1 Apr. 1676; Ebenezer, 9 Apr. 1678; William, 3 Jan. 1680; Sarah, 20 July 1681; and Isaac, 18 Apr. 1683; and a William, perhaps the same, d. there 23 Jan. 1706. WILLIAM, Boston, mariner, in his will 31 Oct. 1690, not pro. bef. 5 Aug. 1701, gives est. [[24]] to w. Mary, and childr. not nam. WILLIAM, Haverhill, m. 31 Dec. 1700, Mary, d. of John Kelly, jr. of Newbury. ZACHARY, Newbury, s. of John of the same, m. 4 Feb. 1681, Judith Brown, had Judith, b. 7 Sept. 1684, d. at 18 yrs.; and Elizabeth 26 Apr. 1687. In many instances, some of the above nam. are spelled Davies, as well as Davis; and the utmost care, in arranging relationsh. betw. parties with a name so wide. diffus. will sometimes be at fault. "A courageous soldier," is the designat. of a serj. D. in the Pequot war 1637; but wh. can individualize him? There came in the Elizabeth 1635, from London to Boston, Margaret Davis, aged 32, with her ch. John, 9; Mary, 4; and Elizabeth 1; the w. and fam. no doubt a Dolor wh. had come a yr. or two bef. Twenty of this name had in 1834 been gr. at Harv. and as many more at the other N. E. coll. DAVISON, * DANIEL, Ipswich, prob. s. of Nicholas, rem. to Newbury, m. Abigail, d. of Peter Coffin of Dover, had Nicholas, b. 16 May 1680; Sarah, 1 Feb. 1682; Daniel, 23 May 1686; Mary, 21 May, 1689; and Peter, 20 Oct. 1692; was a man of note, ar. co. 1672, maj. of the Co. regim. had liv. first at Charlestown, was a merch. in 1676, by w. Abigail had Abigail, bapt. 13 Feb. of that yr.; and Joanna, 29 Apr. 1677; both at C.; may have short time rem. to Stonington. * NICHOLAS, Charlestown 1639, one of the chief men, agent of Gov. Cradock, by w. Joanna Hodges had Daniel and Sarah, wh. m. 24 Mar. 1665, Joseph Lynde, ar. co. 1648, went home 1635, prob. on business, and came back 1656, in the Speedwell, then 45 yrs. old, and d. 1664, leav. good est. His will of 26 Mar. 1655, made in view of a voyage to Barbados, thence to . Eng. pro. 11 July 1664, names w. Joan, ch. Daniel, and Sarah, br. John of wh. he kn. not where he was, sis.-in-law Mary Hodges, w. of br.-in-law John Anderson, two neph. or nieces, perhaps not in our country, and childr. of br. Jeremy D. dec. wh. was m. and liv. at Lynn, Eng. as late as 1652. An Ind. sagamore gave him mortge. of Nahant. His inv. incl. land in Boston, Charlestown, Pemaquid, and a. 2100 acres near Windsor on both sides of the Conn. was £1869.11.11. PETER, Stonington, a. 1680 or 90, was perhaps br. of Daniel, or of THOMAS, wh. was in the same quarter at that time. DAWDY. See Dady. DAWES, AMBROSE, Boston, s. of William, freem. 1671, m. Mary, d. of Thomas Bumstead, had Mary, b. 24 Sept. 1664; Rebecca, 25 Feb. 1666; Susanna,19 Mar. 1668, d.young; William, 19 Dec. 1671; Susannah, again, 11 Jan. 1674; Joseph, 21 Oct. 1677; and Thomas, 1 Nov 1680. FRANCIS, Boston, had Elizabeth wh. m. 16 Oct. 1659, Samuel Miles. This man may have writ. his name Dowse, wh. see. JOHN, Windsor [[25]] 1647, in 1653 banish. from the Col. for threatening Gov. Hopkins, may have, but not prob. come for refuge to Boston, there by w. Mary had Robert, b. 29 Mar. 1655; Mary, 12 Apr. 1657; and Samuel, 1 May 1660. WILLIAM, Braintree, came in the Planter 1635, a bricklayer, aged 15, by the custom ho. reg. in London, m. Susanna, eldest d. of John Mills, had Ambrose, b. 24 July 1642; rem. to Boston, in 1652, there had William, b. 8 Mar. 1655; and Robert a. 1656; freem. 1646, d. 24 Mar. 1703, aet. 86, says the rec. I think he had, also, Hannah, 7 Jan. 1660; but the rec. gives her to John and Susanna, and very good reason is kn. for distrust of that vol. Robert was a soldier under Capt. Turner 1676, on Conn. riv. Susan, possib. a sis. aged 16, came in the Blessing 1635, later in the yr. DAWSE, JOSEPH, Charlestown, is print. as one of Moseley's comp. Dec. 1675, perhaps for Dowse. DAWSON, DANIEL, Ipswich, may easily be mispr. for Davison. But Coffin, in Geneal. Reg. VI. 250 calls wid. 1693, Margaret. Yet she may have been sec. w. of Davison. GEORGE, Boston 1679, a Quaker, wh. had been whip. for attend. the meeting 1677. HENRY, Boston, adm. of the ch. 16 May 1641, freem. 2 June after, a laborer, whose w. was in Eng. He was in the employm. of William Hudson, jr. wh. when he went to serv. in the Parliament's cause against the king, left the care of his fam. two yrs. to this young man in conseq. of wh. he was brot. into great peril of his life, as set forth in Winthrop II. 249. Prob. he repent. soon, for he was in Oct. 1646, restor. to his rank. HENRY, Boston, a soldier, in the comp. of Capt. William Turner in Feb. at Medfield, and on Conn. riv. Apr. 1676, under Capt. Pierce, freem. 1678. HENRY, Boston, perhaps s. of the preced. if not the same, freem. 1690, had bapt. at 2d ch. Thomas, 22 Nov. 1691; James, 9 Feb. 1696; Hannah, 20 Mar. 1698; and Elizabeth 31 Mar. 1700. ROBERT, New Haven, had John, b. 1677, by first w. Sarah, d. of William Tuttle, as erron. has been said, and m. next Hannah, wid. of John Russell, had Thomas, b. 1693. DAWSTIN, JOSIAS, Medford or Reading 1640, by the first deed in Suffk. reg. took grant of his messuage from Matthew Cradock, Esqr. of London, skinner, former Gov. of the Mass. Bay Col. 26 Apr. 1641. In Reading, rec. of b. of his ch. Hannah, 20 Feb. 1649, wh. d. Nov. foll. and Sarah, 25 Sept. 1653, the name is giv. without w. DAY, ANTHONY, Gloucester 1645, had w. Susanna, and seven ch.

His wid. d. 10 Dec. 1717, aged 93. EZEKIEL, Gloucester, s. of Anthony, m. 27 Jan. 1690, Mary, d. of Hugh Rowe, and d. 18 Feb. 1725, leav. five s. lib. Ezekiel, Pelatiah, Samuel, Nathaniel, and Jonathan. He was one of the witness. 15 July 1692, to the invasion by the French or Ind. or Devils, whose story is in its proper place in Mather, Magn. VII. 83. ISAAC, Cambridge, by w. Susanna had Robert, b. 24 Oct. 1686; and Susanna, 28 Nov. 1688. Robert d. 4 Feb. 1688. He was a [[26]] London cit. embroiderer, but when he came, wh. was his w. when he rem. are matters unkn. Prob. he left in the summer of 1692. JAMES, Ipswich, perhaps s. of Robert of the same, freem. 1673. Some two or three JOHNS can find no proper habitat. yet one is seen subscr. to memorial, 1668, at Salem, against imposts. He was s. of Thomas, and m. 6 July of that yr. Ann Coleman, had Ann, b. 18 Oct. 1669; John, 24 Jan. 1671; and Stephen, 16 Oct. 1673. This John d. June 1680, and to his wid. Ann admin. was giv. 1 July. Perhaps one had Mary, wh. m. 20 Aug. 1666, a Coldfax. JOHN, Hartford, s. of Robert, of the same, by w. Sarah Maynard, had Joseph, b. a. 1675; John, 1677; Thomas; Mary; Maynard; Sarah, bapt. 19 Sept. 1686; William, 24 Apr. 1692; and Joseph, again, 14 June 1699. JOHN, Boston 1677, a merch. d. that yr. in his will of 4 Sept. calls hims. of Frome Woodlands, near Warminster, in Wilts, on the border of Somersetsh. and gives all his prop. to br. Robert of the same place; and prob. had no w. or ch. JOHN, Dedham, eldest s. of Ralph, was prob. a soldier of Moseley's comp. Dec. 1676, m. 22 May 1678, Abigail Pond, had John, b. 11 Oct.1679; rem. to Wrentham, there had Ralph, 9 Dec. 1681; Abigail, 12 Jan. 1684, wh. d. young; Jonathan, 12 or 21 Mar. 1689; and Abigail, again, 1 Jan. or, as ano. acco. has it, perhaps by mistake of the numeral for the mo. 1 Nov. 1693; and perhaps other ch. JOHN, Gloucester, br. of Ezekiel, m. 12 Dec. 1682, Abigail Leach, wh. d. 9 Feb. 1726, aged 63; was a witness to spectral delusions in July 1692, as set forth in the Magnalia. JOSEPH, Gloucester, s. prob. youngest, of Anthony, m. 15 Aug. 1696, Elizabeth Gouge, says Babson, had Jeremiah, William, and sev. ds. perhaps also Joseph. MATTHEW, Cambridge, printer, s. of Stephen, b. in Eng. Steward of the coll. 1645, freem. 1646, made his nuncup. will 10 May 1649, d. soon after. Harris, Epit. says the town rec. mark. his bur. on the same day. That docum. wh. is in Geneal. Reg. III. 181, leads us to infer that he had no w. or ch. tho. little ch. Moses is nam. that was prob. his br. but Mr. Paige gives strong sanction to the opin. that he was s. of William Bordman, wh. m. a niece of Day. He gave liberally to the coll. £4. to Elder Frost, and something to sev. others, yet most to his mo. wh. was present. His name is in the imprint of Danforth's Almanac, 1647. NATHANIEL, Ipswich 1637. Kimball. NATHANIEL, Gloucester, s. of Anthony, m. 13 Feb. 1690, Ruth, d. of Hugh Rowe, had Benjamin, Nathaniel, David, and seven ds. prob. rem. bef. 1721.

John, Ralph, Mary, wh. was w. of John Paine, Abigail, and s.-in-law John Ruggles, are nam. But his first w. was Susan, d. of Jonathan Fairbanks, wh. in 1668 ment. her four ch. in his will, and they are found in Dedham ch. rec. to be Elizabeth bapt. 3 July 1648, tak. with the town rec. that shows Mary, b. 9 Nov. 1649; Susan, 1652; and John, 15 Apr. 1654; while the next is found Abigail, d. of Ralph and Abigail, Apr. 1661.

ROBERT, Cambridge, came in the Elizabeth 1634, from Ipswich, aged 30, with w. Mary 28, freem. 6 May 1636, went to Hartford, perhaps with Hooker in 1636, or very soon after, had sev. lots among first proprs. His first w. d. prob. bef. rem. a.nd the mo. of his ch. was Edatha, sis. of [[27]] deac. Edward Stebbins. She is nam. in his will, 20 May 1648, wh. is print. in Trumbull's Col. Rec. of Conn. I. 487; but tho. childr. are provid. for, we find not names nor number. They were Thomas; Sarah, wh. m. Sept. 1658, Nathaniel Gunn of Hartford, and next, 24 Nov. 1664, Samuel Kellogg of Hatfield, and was k. with her s. Joseph, 19 Sept. 1677, by the Ind.; Mary, wh. m. 28 Oct. 1659, Samuel Ely of Springfield, and next, 12 Apr. 1694, Thomas Stebbins, and next, 11 Dec. 1696, deac.

Of descend. of this Robert, in the male line, full acco. is print. by Rev. George E. Day of Northampton. ROBERT, Ipswich, came in the Hopewell, Capt. Bundocke, 1635, from London, aged 30, freem. 2 June 1641, was liv. in 1681. Perhaps Sarah, uh. m. at I. 17 June 1674, David Fiske was his d. Hannah, wh. came in the Elizabeth and Ann 1635, aged 20, may not have been a relat. SAMUEL, Gloucester, s. of Anthony, m. 9 Aug. 1692, Rachel, d. of Hugh Rowe, had two ch. whose names are not seen in Babson, wh. says she d. 6 Sept. 1698, and of the h. no more is kn. STEPHEN, Cambridge, the earliest printer on our side of the ocean, was a locksmith of Cambridge, Eng. brot. over, in the John, 1638, by Rev. Josse Glover wh. d. on the voyage. He began business in Mar. 1639, but was, I fear, unthrifty, for in 1647 the Almanac of his press purports to come from his s. wh. was very young, and the yr. foll. Greene bec. ruler in the office. Yet he was enterprising, hav. for his great service, unluckily, been reward. by grant of 300 acres in 1641, he was 2 yrs. after engag. in sett. of Lancaster, and reduc. to work as journeyman of Greene all his latter days. He brot. from Eng. w. Rebecca wh. had been wid. mo. of William Boardman, had Matthew, bef. ment. and prob. after com. hither had Stephen, wh. d. 1 Dec. 1639, and possib. but not prob. Moses. His w. d. 27 Oct. 1659, he was adm. of the ch. 28 Feb. 1661, but was never freem. and d. 22 Dec. 1668, aet. 58. A catal. of books of his print. is giv. by Thomas in his Hist. I. 227-34. THOMAS, Springfield 1658, s. of Robert of Hartford, m. 27 Oct. 1659, Sarah, d. of Lieut. Thomas Cooper, had Thomas, b. 23 Mar. says the town rec. but fam. rec. says Nov. 1662, the freem. of 1690; Sarah, 14 June 1664; Mary, 15 Dec 1666; John, 20 Feb. 1669, d. soon; Samuel, 20 May 1671; John, again, 20 Sept. 1673; Ebenezer, 8 Sept. 1675, d. soon; Ebenezer, again, 5 Sept. 1677; Jonathan, 8 Aug. 1680; and Abigail. Eight of these ch. liv. to m. bef. his d. He was freem. 1668, and d. 27 Dec. 1711, and the wid. surv. to 21 Nov. 1726. THOMAS, Gloucester, m. 30 Dec. 1673, Mary Laughton, or Langton, had Thomas, b. 27 May 1675; Mary, Dec. 1677; and Joseph, 24 Jan. 1680. His w. and d. were k. by lightning in his ho. 15 July 1706; and he d. 29 Jan. 1726. An earlier THOMAS, whose inv. was found by Coffin 1670, was perhaps f. of the preced. b. a. 1651, and of Sarah, a. 1652, may have been of Salem, a signer of memor. 1668, against imposts, [[28]] was f. of John, ano. signer; and by w. Mary had Abigail, b. 22. Dec. 1667. TIMOTHY, Gloucester, freem. 1690, m. 24 July 1679, Phebe Wildes, d. prob. of the sec. John, wh. d. 8 Apr. 1723, aged 70, had Timothy, Anthony, John, Joseph, Jonathan, Ebenezer, and Susanna, beside some wh. d. inf. as Babson tells. WENTWORTH, Boston 1640, has prefix of respect on adm. to the ch. 22 Sept. but call.a single man; soon after m. had Elizabeth bapt. 26 Sept. 1641, at 8 days old; and Wentworth, 13 Aug. 1643, at 6 days. He was a surgeon at Cambridge, and is honor. by Rev. Mr. Hale in his tract on Witchcraft, as saving in 1602, a woman charg. with the horrid offence. Perhaps he went home, for one of this unusual name was, in 1668, fin. and imprison. as one of the fifth monarchy men, setting up the imaginary reign of King Jesus to disturb the absolute throne of Oliver Cromwell in his last yr. In Sept. 1661, liv. in London, he had a legacy in the will of Edward Shrimpton. WILLIAM, Boston 1669, a mariner. Of descend. of first Robert a Rev,. was pub. some yrs. since by Rev. George E. Day, wh.shows that nineteen had been gr. at Yale, and one at ea. of the coll. foll. Dart. Wil. Amh. and Brown, and that ten of the eleven min. were liv. at his date of publ. One at H. C. 1806 was the earliest of the name in that catal. DAYNES, DEANS, or DAINES, ABRAHAM, New London 1664, suppos. to have come from Casco, m. 27 Dec. 1671, Sarah, d. of William Peake, had Joanna, b.

DAYTON, RALPH, New Haven a 1639, sign. the covenant of habitancy but not at its format. yet liv. there 10 yrs.; was of Easthampton, L. I. 1650, and later. Sometimes the name is Daighton. SAMUEL, Southampton, L. I. 1641,prob. at New Haven 1646, and Brookhaven a. 1655. Perhaps the disting. fam. of New Jersey is of this stock. DEACON, JOHN, Plymouth, of wh. no more is kn. but that he d. 1636. JOHN, Lynn, came in the Abigail, 1635, aged 25, with w. Alice 30, wh.d. 27 July 1657, was a blacksmith, m. 25 Dec. 1657, Elizabeth wid. of John Pickering, wh. d. 30 Aug. 1662, rem. to Boston, was of Mather's ch. 1669. JOHN, Salem, had w.

DANIEL, Concord, perhaps at Sudbury 1663, a lieut. d. 29 [[29]] Nov. 1725, aet. 97. Shattuck. EZRA, Taunton, br. of Benjamin, m. 17 Dec. 1678, Bethia, d. of deac.

Reg. is wrong, yd. soon; Seth, 3 June 1683; Margaret; and Ephraim; and his d. was betw. 28 Oct. 1727 and 15 Feb. 1732. Very striking instances of old age in fifteen ch. of his s. Ezra are ment. in the Mem. of Deane fam. GEORGE, Salem 1660-1686, was a cordwainer, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 2 Jan. 1661, d. soon; John; Thomas; George; Joseph, a. 1671; Benjamin; Elizabeth and Hannah; of not one can the date of b. or d. be ascert. and glad. can we read in fam. rec. that Elizabeth m. Jonathan Lambert; and that Hannah m. 11 June 1701, John Cook; that John, Thomas, and Joseph had fams. and of George and Benjamin only that they d. bef. 1706. ISAAC, Taunton, s. of John, m. 24 Jan. 1678, Hannah, d. of James Leonard of the same, had Alice, b. 20 Nov. 1678; Abigail, 16 Nov. 1680; Hannah, 24 Apr. 1683; Nathaniel, 25 Apr. 1685; Jonathan; Abiah; and Deborah.

Some confus. of names and dates is fear. in var. old MS. Even the bapt. on ch. rec. of four more ch. count wrong days for two, as Hannah, Apr. 1686; William, 6 July 1690; Nathaniel, 20 Apr. 1693; and Jonathan, Apr. 1695; the first hav. Saturday, and the last, Monday. Some variat. as well in dates as names may be seen in rec. both of ch. and town. John was progenit. of Hon. Silas D. 1758, the ambass. with Franklin in France, and James was of late Prof. James D. JOHN, Dorchester 1636, came from Chard, Somersetsh. rem. to Taunton, of wh. he was one of the first purch. 1639, hav. been made freem. of the Col. 4 Dec. 1638; by w.

B. 1623, being of Catherine Hall, perhaps came over in 1638, or 9; and we fear, that the long dissens. at W. about Rev.

DEWING, sometimes DEWEN, || ANDREW, Dedham, ar. co. 1644, freem. 1646, had there bapt. John, 17 Mar. 1650, d. soon; John, again, 29 June 1651; Rachel, 27 June 1658; perhaps Jonathan; and others, beside one 19 Apr. 1663, whose name (perhaps Lydia, wh. m. 15 Dec. 1683, John Bacon) is not giv. in the rec. and Ann, 6 May 1666, wh m. 17 Feb. 1686, Daniel Wight of the same. JONATHAN, Dedham, perhaps s. of the preced. m. Susanna, d. of John Bacon of the same.

GREGORY, Providence, preach. in the bapt. ch. 1643, had been a printer and stationer in London, there brot. out that curious book, Roger Williams's Key into the lang. of America, and his admirat. of the author induc. him to foll. or accomp. him; was town clk. 1654, and Presid. the yr. bef. d. at 90 yrs. it is said, in 1700. His ch. by w. Abigail were Stephen, b. 1 Nov. 1647; James, 6 May, perhaps 1650, but the yr. is not plain; John, 6 Nov. 1652; and Abigail, 24 Sept. 1655, wh. m. James Angel. But in the later days, a descend. of the sixth generat. from Gregory has enlarg., the fam. with Peleg, 1658. Thomas, I. 418. Knowles, 253, 270. JAMES, Providence, s. prob. of Gregory, sw. alleg. May 1671, had, it is said, Peleg, b. 1673; and Isabel, 1675, only. JOHN, Charlestown, or Malden, s. prob. of Richard, by w. Sarah, it is said, had Sarah, b. 11 June 1674; and d. 8 Dec. 1677. This s.

PELEG, Providence, perhaps s. of Gregory, had, it is said, John, Gideon, James, and Barzillai, yet no date for either is found, nor name of mo. nor d. of f. wh. deficiencies would raise doubts as to authenticity, were not the same want felt as to the others. The misfortune is bitterly aggravat. by the failure of all issue to the whole four s. and leaves no slight fear of their right on the chart. RICHARD, Boston, adm. a townsman 28 Feb. 1642, was of Charlestown 1644, on Mystic side, where his est. descend. thro. five generat. By w. Bridget, one of the friends of the meek preacher, Marmaduke Matthews of Malden, he had Sarah, b. 1 Nov. 1644, wh. m. Edmund Pinson, as sec. w.

STEPHEN, Providence, s. prob. of Gregory, took o. of alleg. June 1668, had John, b. 1670, and no more is told. Of not one of Gregory's ch. is the time of d. giv. on the beautiful geneal. chart.

His nuncup. will gave all to his w. Ann for the reason that, "the ch. were hers as well as his." Various spelling has this name appear. in; and it may, originally, be the same as that of Dymocke, the heredit. champion of Eng. wh. at coronations, owes the service of challenge to all competitors for the crown. DINELY, or DYNELEY, FATHERGONE, Boston, butcher, youngest s. of William, got his name from the incident of his f.'s loss "in a violent tempest of wind and snow," on 15 Dec. 1638, betw.

In the yr. of his death, some ridicul. mischief is, by the Magnalia VI. 69, honor. as a tragedy of witchcraft; but Cotton borrow. the nonsense from his f.'s Remarkab. Provid. p. 113. By Col.

So there must have been two of the name. But the mem. of Boston ch. and not the youth of 19 must have been that freem., and this Deborah must have been a wid. for she was mo. of Leonard of Wethersfield. JOHN, Taunton 1669. Baylies, II. 241.

Thomas, at Marblehead, sign. the petn. against imposts 1668, as did the Salem man. Yet perhaps it was the same man, for in such cases it is sometimes thot. that more value attaches to the number than to the argum. and undue artifice is employ. to swell the list.

JOHN, Dorchester 1640, gave his sh. with others, in Thompson's Isld. 7 Feb. 1642, for support of a free sch. My insert. of this name should be accomp. with explanat. that no other notice of such an one, near that time, is found. What thus I read in the lithograph copy publish. by the Dorchester Antiq. and Hist. Soc. as frontisp. to that Ed. of Blake's Ann. 1846, the No. on the list being 47, is by a writer of considerab. research, in Geneal. Reg. [[55]] V. 391, call. John Pearce. Yet it may be necessary, for whoever will form an opinion on either side, to ask wh. of the two, No. 30, or No. 47, is likely to be the fac-simile of signature of John Pierce, wh. had been selectman and rep. of the town, and soon after the date of the benefact. rem. to Boston. JOHN, New Haven, came in 1664, it is said, after long concealm. in Europe or elsewhere, flying from prosecut. as one of the regicides, but it is suppos. his first quiet resid. was at Hadley, with Goffe and Whalley, under shelter of Rev.

DOVE, MATTHEW, Salem, had ch. bapt. there, Hannah, and Elizabeth 10 Sept. 1654; Dorcas, 5 Oct. 1656; Bethia, 30 May 1658; Daniel, 3 Nov. 1661; Deborah, 20 May 1666; and a d. whose name is not on the rec. 1 July foll. beside Sarah, b. 3 July 1660, d. in a few days; Matthew, 3 Dec. 1667; and Ruth, 15 Oct. 1673. But the b. of Doreas is made 11 days later than the bapt. Many such gross errors fall under our notice in rec. of Boston and other towns as well as Salem; and when the ch. or the town rec. is to be prefer. must commonly be decid in favor of the ch. for obvious reason. Yet at New Haven the opposite conclus. is the right one, for the town rec. is unusual. correct, and that of the ch. very inexact. Two fifths of those in the Geneal. Reg. IX. 357-63, are wrong. This name of Dove, in the Hist. Coll. of Essex Inst. II. 43, is made Dour, thro. misread. of the old chirography for the last letter, as I presume; but Mr. Patch very rarely fails. Hannah m. 20 Mar. 1671, Richard Harris. DOW, FRANCIS, Salisbury, in the rec. of proprs. has the prefix of respect, and is third in the list, came from the city of Salisbury in Co.

DOWNING, BENJAMIN, Hatfield 1679, took the o. of alleg. that yr. and m. the same yr. Sarah, d. perhaps eldest, of William Hunter; may have been, but prob. not, s. of Emanuel. DENNIS, Kittery 1650, in Nov. 1652 sw. alleg. to Mass. and was k. by the Ind. 4 July 1697, unless the sufferer were s. of the first. * EMANUEL, Salem, from London, where he was a lawyer of the Inner Temple, inhab. of the parish of St. Michael, Cornhill Ward, was, prob. s. of Rev. Emanuel, a clerg. in Ireland, whose letter to Archbp. Usher may be found in Parr's Life of that prelate, came in 1638 with his w. Lucy, d. of Adam Winthrop, Esqr. Of Groton, in Co. Suff. where she was bapt. 27 Jan. 1601, sis. of our first Gov. of Mass. m. 10 Apr. 1622. They were adm. of the ch. 4 Nov. 1638, and he was sw. a freem.

His ch. were George, b. prob. in 1623, or 4, and was, perhaps, kept in sch. at home until his f. came; Mary, wh. came May 1633 with Gov. Coddington in the Mary and Jane, and in Nov. of that yr. was adm. of the ch. in Boston; James, wh. was brot. by his uncle, the Gov. in the Arbella 1630; Susan, wh. came at the same time with Mary; Ann; Lucy; and these foll. b. on our side of the ocean, John, bapt. 1 Mar. 1640; and Dorcas, 7 Feb. 1641. He went home early in 1642, back next yr. and went again, in 1644, on business, but came back next yr. The date of his d. is not found, nor that of his w. tho. we see proof of his req. to the Gen. Ct. Sept. 1653 for his 600 acres to be laid out, and of her liv. 4 Aug. 1656, when she gave to Capt. Joseph Gardner dowry on his m. with her d. and the same shows that her h. Emanuel was d. The s. James, I think, liv. at Ipswich; Mary m. Anthony Stoddard of Boston; Ann was w. of the intrepid Capt. Gardner, k. at the gr. Narraganset swamp fight in Philip's war, and after m. Gov. Bradstreet. There was a John D. wh. d. at Boston 29 Apr. 1694, but he was a merch. from Nevis, where was his fam. and est. GEORGE, Salem, s. of the preced. b. in London, was partly prepar. for coll. by Rev. John Fiske, and gr. in the first class H. C. 1642, went to Eng. by way of Newfoundland, St. Kitts, Barbados, and Nevis, and in each isl. was desir. to preach, but perhaps saw prospect of greater usefulness in his native land, where he bec. as his uncle Winthrop tells, 1645, a chaplain in the regim. of Okey, wh. after was made one of the judges to sign the warrant for execut. of Charles 1. He got forward fast (possib. faster, as Okey sunk), in favor with Cromwell, wh. made him his resident at the Hague; and in 1654 unit. with "the blood of all the Howards" by m. with Frances, descend. thro. the sec. s. from that fourth Duke of Norfolk, wh. was by Queen Elizabeth behead. for tenderness to Mary, Queen of Scots. The Hon. Charles Howard, br. of Frances, was the first, of only three, by Oliver creat. peers of Eng. under the title of Viscount Morpeth. The infirmity of this honor was, soon after the restor. strengthen. by his creat. 20 Apr. 1661, as first Earl of Carlisle, wh. title is now enjoy. by his lineal heirs. Previous to this dignity conferr. on the Howard stock, and even bef. his restor. the kin, had made D. a knight for his good conduct in Holland; and, 1 July, 1663, he was made baronet, by the style of Sir George D. of Gamlingay, in Co. Cambridge, where his est. was call. the largest in that county. His w. d. 10 July 1683, and he d. 1684. His s. Charles was one of the tellers in the Exch. by indent. at London 13 Sept. 1700, sold the est. at Salem, that was his gr.f.'s and to him from Emanuel had come thro. George, as in our Reg. of Essex Co. Vol. XVII. appears. His eldest s. Sir George m. Catharine, eldest d. of James, Earl of Salisbury, [[67]] of the illustr. house of Cecil, and their s. Sir George, after sit. in two Parliam. of Queen Anne, and the first of Geo. II. d. without issue, and left the splendid resid. devise to the Univ. of Cambr. wh. laid the founda. of Downing Coll. In possess. of Dawson Turner, Esqr. F. A. S. at Great Yarmouth, is a collect. of Downing papers, in wh. some curious matter may prob. exist. I had slight inspect. of them in 1842, but look. only at the earliest, when the N. E. youth was scout-master-gen. in Scotland. A despatch from Downing, of 3 Sept. 1651, that day of Worcester route, wh. Cromwell, with proper forecast, call. his crowning mercy, may be read in Cary's Memorials of the civ. war, Vol. II. It is far more perspicuous and soldier-like than that of the Command.-in-Chief. But the skill or valor of such a field was no longer in request, and it was to his fidel. probity, and diligence in other affairs that Oliver direct. John Milton to certify. Winthrop II. 241. Hutch.

RICHARD of Ipswich, d. 3 Nov. 1702, but I kn. nothing more of him, exc. that in 1664 (three yrs. bef. he was m.), he was 27 yrs. old, yet from seeing him among proprs. of Salem or Marblehead 1674, had w.

In the custom ho. rec. sent from Ipswich to London of passeng. in the Francis, thence to Boston 1634, appears as one with the strange name, Clear Drap, aged 30, of wh. we may safely judge the surname abbreviat. for Draper, but the name of bapt. is beyond conject. Of this name six had been, in 1834, gr. at Harv. and four at the other N. E. coll. DRAWWATER, THOMAS, New Haven 1668, fin. for drinking unduly. DRAYTON, HENRY, Marshfield, able to bear arms 1643.

He enlarges our knowledge of three other ch. Jonathan d. 1700, aged 19; Ebenezer d. 1715, aged 25; and Abigail 1717, aged 27. He says the eldest b. d. 1700, and their mo. d. 1719, in her 70th yr. THOMAS, Dover, perhaps s. or br. of William, in that part on Oyster riv. now Durham, had a garris. ho. in 1694, where he was k. by the Ind. after surrender, and a s. of 9 yrs. was k. in a frightful way.

I concur in this astute conject. for two reasons; (beside the strangeness of such a surname) Vincent is exceeding. rare as bapt. name;--and the next above and below him in the Rec. list, was a Hingham man; rem. bef. 1652 to Cambridge, liv. on S. side of the riv. now Newton, had sh. in the div. for Cambridge people of Shawsheen lds. and in that rec. his name is Druse, as also in Roxbury rec.

Of the charact. of so disting. a politician the lineaments will borrow colors from the artist's pencil; yet that of Hutch. II. 213, 214, shows an honorab. impartiality, especially when we reflect how he must have kn. the envenom. hatred of his relat. the Mathers. Something darker is the portrait in Bancroft, III. 100, but he may have mistak. the secret feeling of Dudley's heart, and fell into wonderful error, when he closed the relation with that sad retribut. "His grave is among strangers," for all Roxbury could testify that his final resting place is close to that of his f. and that he was bur. in his native town, where he passed the last eighteen yrs. of his life. In later editions the historian struck out that clause of malediction. His will of 27 Oct. 1719, ment. only two s. and bequeathes "his body to be bur. with his f." His w.

One of the most curious combinat. in N. E. Hist. is detail. in his corresp. with Incr. and Cotton Mather, 1708, for wh. see 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 126-137. Both of the rev. casuists display much shrewdness and more malignity.

Cam bridge, where he had his degrees 1626, and 1630, but certain. he came not to our country bef. 1636, if at all; yet that he did come, may be argu. from the strange add. of sen. to the name of the f. at his elect. as Dep.

Rec. in the list of freem. 1653 and 1655, it may well be thot. that there was no such person, but this name insert. for Timothy; and that the astonishing carelessness of repetit. of thirty-one out of the total thirty-two names makes the probabil. in the doctrine of chances stand for Timothy above 30 to 1. *TIMOTHY, Dedham, perhaps br. of John, at Hampton 1640, freem. 2 June 1641, rep. 1652 for Medfield, where he resid. many yrs. d. 1677.

Reg. II. 108-10, after some correct. of errors found by H. G. Somerby, giv. in Geneal. Reg. V. 440, would be rec. as prob. in spite of the name being in the latter chang. to Robert, and the other circumst. of his being call. serv. 15 yrs. sold, for the numeral should be 25, and the designat. may well seem only a deception to get clear from the orders in counc. to embarrass emigrat.

RICHARD, Boston, d. 29 Oct. 1639, prob. without w. or ch. His will, the first in first vol. of rec. names br. John in Eng. and refers to three brs. and a sis. as residuary legatees.

Eleven of this name had in 1829 been at Harv. Yale, and Williams Coll. of wh. ten were clerg.

He m. 13 Apr. 1680, Lydia (tho. the rec. has Esther), wid. of Arthur Cole, rem. to Marlborough, after hav. Margaret, b. 25 May 1681, there had sev. more; but as William; Zechary; Abraham; James, 1685; Jacob; Mercy; Lydia; and Esther, nam. in his will of Dec. 1687, as well as Zerubabel, Ruth, Sarah and Margaret, seem too large a number for the sec. w. for whose promise of another also provis. is made, one must suppose, that two or three beside those rec. at C. were b. of first w. at some other town. The will was pro. 17 June 1690. Abraham, James, Zechary, and Zerubabel had fam. in Marlborough, the last hav. m. 1697, Hannah Kerley; Abraham had w.

The name of his w. is unkn. but the Court rec. of Conn. ment. that he was fin. 20 sh. for bequeath. her to a young man in 1645, wh. (not the fine), must be regard. as joke. Abigail m. 14 Oct. 1669, John Osborn.

Mar. 1691. In the Hist. of Windsor, 591, some variety in names of the ch. as also of dates, is seen. THOMAS, Windsor, br. of the preced. freem. 1658, was of New London 1662. EGLETON, John, Fairfield, by w. Peaceable had John, b. 4 Sept. 1657; d. 1659, his inv. bears date of 20 Oct. His wid. m. a. 1660, Daniel Silliman, from wh. it is said, all of this name desc.

EGRON, JOHN, Malden, had Elizabeth b. 3 Feb. 1673; but that this was a possib. name in N. E. demands high authority to convince. See Geneal Reg. X. 235. EIRE, SIMON. See Eyre. ELA, DANIEL, Haverhill 1675, perhaps sev. yrs. earlier, a tanner, but in 1677 had leave to keep an ordinary. Mirick, 52, 4. He took o. of alleg. 28 Nov. 1677. Perhaps he had s. Israel, wh. took o. of alleg. 28 Nov. 1677. ELBRIDGE, THOMAS, Boston, s. of Giles, merch. and joint grantee of the patent, 29 Feb. 1632 to Aldsworth, an Alderm. of Bristol, by the [[107]] Presid. and Counc. of N. E. for Pemaquid, came, perhaps 1650, to dispose of that int. in lots, of wh. one moiety was in 1652 to Capt. Paul White for 200, and the last was in 1657. He also sold for the co. Monhigon.

THOMAS, New Haven, s. of the preced. m. Martha, eldest ch. and only d. of Samuel Munson. The name sometimes seems Elcote. ELDER, DANIEL, Dorchester, m. 12 Mar. 1667, Lydia Homes, wh. d. 5 Sept. 1689, had Lydia, b. 19 July 1668, d. next mo.; Remember, 29 June 1669; Andrew, 13 Mar. 1671; Lydia, again, 13 June 1673; Daniel, 1 June 1675; and d. 4 May 1692.

He had Abigail, b. 13 Sept. 1641, but what was his w.'s name, or whether she had more ch. or when she d. is unkn. Yet a d. of this w. m. Daniel Comstock. He m. for. sec. w.

His wid. long surv. him, and d. 18 June 1716, aet. 95; and the error in Hist. of Norwich, 117, whereby this date was made to belong to the h. is thus explain. JOHN, Norwich, s. of the preced. m. 1685, Abigail Fowler. Four of the name had in 1829 been gr. at Yale. ELDERTON, JOHN, Providence 1645. ELDRED, JOHN, Hampton 1640. JOHN, Warwick, m.

Both s. were of Wickford 1674, but, both being in the interest of Conn. they may not have been perman. sett. Taken prisoner by Conn. when R. I. was too weak to vindicate her right, he, perhaps, to serve his relat. and neighb. consent. to be made a constable until the royal justice might impartial. set. the disput. boundary. Samuel w. at Rochester 1688, and is nam. in the Revo. in N. E. Justif. p. 20.

JOHN, Roxbury, the celebr. apostle of the Ind. b. at Nazing, Co. Essex, 1603, was bred at Cambridge, matric. as a pensioner in Jesus Coll. 20 Mar. 1619, where he took his A. B. 1623, came to Boston 2 Nov. 1631, in the Lion, freem. 6 Mar. 1632, in Nov. foll. was sett. in his office of teacher, with collea. Thomas Welde, wh. was made pastor in July preced. He m.

I think, certain. not 4 Sept. 1632, as the town rec. has it, for the ship, in wh. she came did not arr. until 12 [[110]] days later. She d. 22 Mar. 1687, had Hannah, b. 17 Sept. 1633, wh. m. 4 May 1653, Habakuk Glover, and was liv. when Mather wrote the Life of her f.; John, 3 or 31 Aug. 1636, H. C. 1656; Joseph, 20 Dec. 1638, H.

C. 1660; Aaron, 19 Feb. bapt. 3 Mar. 1644, d. 19 Nov. 1655; and Benjamin, 29 Jan. 1647, whose bapt. is not kn. as the foot of the page in ch. rec. where prob. it was writ. is cut off. This youngest s. H. C. 1665, was, it is said, a preacher, and assist. his f. many yrs.; but he was never ord. nor m. and d. 15 Oct. 1687. In the trembl. hand of the f. it is writ. that he was bur. 26, the rec. next but one above being "in this yr. my ancient dearly beloved w. d. I was sick to death, but the Lord was pleased to deliv. me." A very curious tract, proving Eliot's simplicity of heart, the Christian Commonwealth, compos. like William Aspinwall's Fifth Monarchy, under a strong persuasion of the "rising kingdom of Jesus Christ," being near at hand, may be seen in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. IX. 130. In the humble apology, extort. in May 1661, he says, it was sent to Eng. "about nine or ten yrs. since." As the more proximate reign of Oliver Cromwell was then in concoction, the work was kept back for the preposterous, but natural, anarchy after his death, and then came forth to enjoy short popular. or prob.none at all. Our peop. gladly acknowl. the gov. of Eng. in King, Lords, and Commons, for the millennium seem. premature; yet it was hardly an object of true policy to compel the auth. to profess his sorrow for the harmless mistakes. Ever honor. will be the name of Eliot for the better work, not of a statesman, but a philanthro. laborer of forty yrs. in spread. among our aborig. the sentiments and in some degree the doctr. of his relig. He had sec. collea. Danforth, and third, Walter, and d. 20 May 1690. JOHN, Watertown 1633, by w.

Margaret d. 17 Aug. 1658, and d. Sarah was m. 1659. JOHN, Newton, first min. of that town, then Cambridge vill. s. of the apostle, freem. 1660, ord. 20 July 1664, had w. Sarah, third d. of Thomas Willet, the disting. first Eng. mayor of N. Y. of wh. the Cambridge rec. gives date of d. 13 June 1664, but Jackson's Hist. says 1665. By her he had Sarah, bapt. 21 Sept. 1662, wh. m. 16 Nov. 1681, John Bowles. He m. next, 23 May 1666, Elizabeth d. of Daniel Gookin, had John, b. 28 Apr. 1667, H. C. 1685, wh. was a man of some distinct. at Windsor in Conn. At the age of only 32 he was cut off, 13 Oct. 1668, in his will of 15 Aug. preced. provid. for the two ch. and ano. if his w.

JOSEPH, Guilford, s. of the apostle, ord. 1664, had preach. first two yrs. at Northampton, m. Sarah, d. of William Brenton, Gov. of R. I. had Mehitable, b. 6 Oct. 1676; Ann, 12 Dec. 1677; Jemima, 1 680; and Bashua, 1682; thus arrang. in his will. By sec. w. Mary, d. of Samuel Wyllis of Hartford, he had Jared, b. 7 Nov. 1685, Y. C. 1706; Mary, 1687; Rebecca, 1690; and Abiel; and d. 24 May 1694. The will of 1 Dec. 1693 gives his Newport est. val. £1200, deriv. from Brenton, equally to ch. of first w. and his prop. in Mass. from Wyllis, £500, and his own f. £400 more, to s. Jared, and of resid. 2/3 to his w. wh. d. 11 Oct. 1729, aged 73; and 1/3 to the other ch. Ann was w. of Jonathan Law, Gov. of Conn. * PHILIP, Roxbury, br. of the apostle, came prob. early in Apr. 1635, in the Hopewell, Capt. Bundocke, tho. his name is not on the custom ho. list, for it contains his w. Elizabeth aged 30, and their ch. Mary, 13; Elizabeth 8, Sarah, 6; and Philip, 2; beside John Ruggles, 10, of wh. the ch. rec. says he was brot. over a serv. by Philip Eliot. Mary had been bapt. 11 Mar. 1621; Elizabeth 8 Apr. 1627; and Sarah, 25 Jan. 1629. All were from Nazing, the seat of the fam. and we may be sure, that, as a subsidy man, or for other good reason, he could not obtain license to leave his native land, prob. fear. to ask for it, and assum. the right of Eng. to come without. He was freem. 26 May 1636, a deac. in the ch. of his br. at Roxbury rep. 4 yrs. 1654-7 and d. 22 Oct. 1657, says the ch. reg. but the less reliable town rec. has it 24, wh. may have been the day of bur. leav. three ds. Elizabeth Sarah, and ano. respective. ws. of Richard Withington of Dorchester, of John Aldis, and of John Smith of Dedham, as rememb. in his will of 21 Oct. 1657; but I think Mary wh. m. 1 Jan. 1642, Edward Payson, and liv. long, was also a d. So that we may conject. that ano. d. had been b. on our side of the ocean, and that Mary had rec. her share of f.'s prop. on her m. many yrs. bef. the will.

ELY, * NATHANIEL, Cambridge 1632, freem. 6 May 1635, rem. prob. next yr. to Hartford, was an orig. propr. constable 1639, one of the first set. at Norwalk 1651, and rep. 1657, but rem. three yrs. later to Springfield, there d. 25 Dec. 1675. His wid. Martha d. 23 Oct. 1688. No rec. of his fam. is kn. he left no will, and the only ch. we hear of are Samuel, and Ruth; yet there may have been other ds. RICHARD, Saybrook, [[117]] had been a merch. of Boston 1664, and there m. that yr. Elizabeth wid. of John Cullick, and sis. of Col. Fenwick. But by a former w. he had, perhaps, not b. on our side of the water, William, and Richard. The est. of his w. had drawn him to S. and much trouble he had with it; d. 24 Nov. 1684; and his w. d. 12 Nov. 1683. SAMUEL, Springfield, only s. of Nathaniel, m. 28 Oct. 1659, Mary, d. of Robert Day, had 15 ch. betw. 1660 and 1686 incl. of wh. nine d. young; freem. 1680, and d. 7 Mar. 1692, leav.

WILLIAM, Lyme, s. of Richard, m. 24 May 1681, Elizabeth had Ann, b. 12 Mar. 1682; and Elizabeth 26 May 1683. One of this name, without bapt. prefix, a mariner, came in the Mayflower 1620, but not as a passenger to abide in the ld. He was hired by the pilgrims for a yr. and has no farther relat. to N. E. yet as he was not of the crew of the Mayflower, but contin. here, after her depart. and went home when his time was out, Deane thinks Gov. Bradford designs both him and Trevore to be count. as of their serv. wh. seems very reasonab. and so the number must be reckon. one hundred and two, beside the ship's comp. in that famous voyage. Twenty-three of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Yale, of wh. seven were clerg. and six at the other N. E coll. EMBLIN, JOHN, Boston, min. of first Bapt. ch. from 20 July 1684 to his d. 9 Dec. 1702. EMERSON, JAMES, Ipswich, perhaps s. of Thomas, by w. Sarah had Elizabeth b. 6 Mar. 1687. JOHN, Ipswich, came in the Abigail 1635, a i baker, aged 20, call. by Coffin, s. of John. It may be, that he rem. to vi Scituate, and m. at Duxbury 19 July 1638, Barbara, d. of Rev. John Lothrop.

JOHN, S. of the preced. min. of Manchester, as Mather's Hecatompolis shows, but prob. not set. there, wh. m. 14 May 1696, Mary, d. of Edmund Batter of Salem, was ord. at Newcastle 1704, the first min. and instal. at sec. ch. of Portsmouth, as its first min. 23 Mar. 1715, and d. 21 June 1732, leav. six ds. JOHN, Salem, neph. of John of Gloucester, H. C. 1675, was, doubtless, the worthy preach. at Berwick, wh. had the happy escape, on the night of 27 June 1689, when Maj. Waldron of Dover and fifty-one of his comp. were massacred or made prison. by the Ind. hav. declin. the req. of the hospit. soldier to lodge at his house, as the Appendix, art. 4 to Magn. VII. relates; Belkn. and Alden foll. his auth. mistake him for [[118]] the future min. of Portsmouth, wh. was not then gr. See Niles and Belkn. I. 130. He had been employ. as sch.master at Newbury 1681, at a later day perhaps at Gloucester, freem. 1691, certain. taught in Charlestown, and last at Salem 1699 until his d. 1712. Felt, I. 439.

JOSEPH, Ipswich 1638, perhaps s. of Thomas, York, freem. 1653, preach. two or three yrs. also at Wells, 1664 and foll. bec. first min. of Mendon, ord. a. 1667, and cont. until the destruct. 1675, of the town in Philip's war, rem. to Concord, there d. 3 Jan. 1680; m. 7 Dec. 1665, Elizabeth d. of Rev.

NATHANIEL, Ipswich, s. of the preced. m. 1685, Martha Woodward, had Nathaniel, b. 26 Dec. 1686; Joseph, 26 June 1690; Mary, 19 Jan. 1692, d. young; a ch. 28 June 1695, whose name is not plain on the rec. Mary, again, 18 Dec. 1697; Hannah, 5 Dec. 1698; Ann, or Hannah, 4 Sept. 1700; and he d. 16 Sept. 1738. ROBERT, Haverhill, freem. 1668, wh. had rem. from Rowley, where he was as early as 1655, was ancest. of sev. fam. at H. perhaps of Thomas; was k. by the Ind. with his w. and ch. Sarah and Timothy, 15 Mar. 1697. THOMAS, Ipswich 1639, baker, d. 1 May 1666; by w. Elizabeth had Joseph; Nathaniel; James, wh. went. to Eng. Thomas, wh. d. bef. his f. leav. wid. Elizabeth and perhaps s. Thomas; and John, H. C. 1656, perhaps youngest, nam. in codic. to the will of his f. 1660. Most of these ch. were brot. by the f. from Eng. THOMAS, Ipswich, perhaps gr.s. of Thomas the first, m. 1683, Phillis, eldest ch. of the sec. Jacob Perkins of same, but I am ign. as to issue. Thirty of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and twenty at other N. E. coll. of wh. seventeen were ord. min. besides sev. others, preachers. EMERY, or EMORY, * ANTHONY, Newbury, a carpenter of Romsey in Hants, came in the James, June 1635, to Boston from Southampton, perhaps with w. and ch. rem. a. 1644 to Dover, thence after 1648 to Kittery; H was ferryman, and kept an inn 1650, freem. 1652, constable 1668, rep. 1680. GEORGE, Salem, a physician, had, says Felt, gr. of ld. 1637, was b. 1609, sentenc. in 1668, to sit on the gallows with rope round his neck for execr. crime, and d. 20 Feb. 1687 His w. Mary d. 1673. * JAMES, Kittery, perhaps br. of Anthony, freem. 1652, constable 1670, and rep. 1676, 7, 84, 5, and 92. JOHN, Newbury 1635, br. of Anthony, came [[119]] the same sh. arr. 3 June, freem. 2 June 1641, brot. 8. John, had here, says Coffin, a d. Ebenezer, rather a strange name, b. 16 Sept. 1648, Monday morning, but evident. here is error of date, if not, as must be suspect. of name, for that day in the Almanac was Saturday; and Jonathan, 13 May 1652. JOHN, Newbury, s. of the preced. came with his f. m. 29 Oct. 1650, Mary, wid. of John Webster of Ipswich, had Mary, b. 24 June 1652 ; Hannah, 25 Apr. 1654; John, 12 Sept. 1656 ; Bethia, 15 Oct. 1658; Sarah, 26 Feb. 1661; Joseph, 23 Mar. 1663; Stephen, 6 Sept. 1666; Abigail, 16 Jan. 1669; Samuel, 20 Dec. 1670; Judith, 5 Feb. 1673; Lydia, 19 Feb. 1675; Eliz: 8 Feb. 1680; and Josiah, 28 Feb. 1681; and d. 1693, aged 65. His wid. d. 28 APr. 1694. Greatly do I doubt the exactness of Coffin's relat. here. If the w. were that w. of John Webster wh. had s. John, b. 1632, she could not be mo. of all these here assign. to her. Even if she were sec. w. of that J. W. and a young wid. when tak. by Emery, it may seem exped. to allow him a sec. w. to bring the two last nam. ch. Mary m. 10 Mar. 1671, the sec. William Sawyer. JOHN, Newbury, s. of the preced. m. 13 June 1683, Mary, d. of the first William Sawyer, had Mary, b. 25 Dec. 1684; John, 29 Sept. 1686; Josiah, 19 Dec. 1688; Daniel, 15 June 1693; Lydia, 29 Apr. 1698; and Samuel, 25 Oct. 1699.

See Geneal. Reg. I. 335. ¤ à JOHN, perhaps from Dorchester, Eng. by some thot. his place of b. a. 1589, came in the Abigail, from Weymouth, a small port on the channel, a. 9 ms. from D. with w. and a comp. of prob. 20 or 30 others, includ. women and ch. to Salem, Sept. 1628. He was one of the six orig. purch. of the Mass. Bay from the Plymouth Counc. 19 Mar. preced. and the only one wh. came over for more than two yrs. In the Royal Chart. of 4 Mar. foll. he is nam. an Assist. one of the eighteen, after Saltonstall, Johnson, Humphrey, and others, bef. Nowell, Vassall, Pynchon, and others, and by his assoc. at London, in Gen. Court on 30 Apr. after his coming, made the head, superint. or gov. of the first sett. at Salem, call. by them London's planta. includ. those wh. preced. or accomp. him, by delegat. of authority (tho. it was never consummat. by needful qualificat.) to him and twelve counsel. to be chos. partly by the comp. in London, partly by these deput. and two by the older planters here, for all necessary rule of the country, while the chief governm. contin. in the gov. dep. gov. and eighteen assist. req. by the Chart. chos. by the General Court in Eng. on the last Wednesday of Easter term. Under this power of attorney, or delegat. of authority, these persons were empower. and indeed requir. to choose a secr. and admin. to him and all other officers an oath at the time of his and their elect. "wh. said oaths are to be admin. in a publ. ct. and not elsewhere." Nothing of the sort was ever done, no such ct. ever held by him; nor was any secr. ever chos. at Salem, nor dept. nor couns. ever induct. there bef. 1630, any more than an archbp. an admiral, or field marshal. By the instr. to him from his constit. the gov. and comp. in London, he, with seven couns. was authoriz. to do certain things; but two of those seven, John and Samuel Brown, he had sent home, bef. these instr. reach. him. He was, therefore, disabled, by his own act, from fill. up the Council, choos. dep. gov. or secr. and other officers. Of course he was, in the lang. of the law, REMITTED to his authority under the patent from Plymouth Comp. to Sir Henry Roswell and the other five. This was, I think, all the power he ever used, and certain. it was all he need. Yet Cotton Mather in Magn. I. 18, styles him dep. gov. in Aug. 1629; and a respect. descend. has even gone to the length of mak. the title "First Gov. of the Col. of Mass. Bay." To me this seems, in both authors, wrong. On p. 57 of the Hist. of Boston, wh. affords copious proof of sedulous [[121]] industry, the auth. says, "Matthew Cradock was the first Gov. of the Mass. Comp." yet, facing the same page, he inserts the picture of John Endicott with a title at the bottom, "first Gov. of Mass." and 16 pages onward he inserts the picture of John Winthrop with the title, giv. by the author, "sec. Gov. of Mass." Prob. no reader will be deceiv. for every one will ask, wh. was the second, third, fourth, &e. gov. of the Mass. Comp. wh. bec. the Col. of Mass. Bay only by transfer of all the authority, &c. in 1629, when Cradock was "first" gov. On his resignat. within six mos. of his elect. that yr. Winthrop was chos. the same day, and Cradock an Assist. But Cradock never came to our country, and so if W. be the sec. Gov. of Mass. because C. was the first; of course W. would be justly reckon. the first in Mass. The order of success. of the Chart. Governors is this: first, Cradock, nam. in that instrum. 4 Mar. 1629, and rechos. in May; sec. Winthrop chos. and sw. 29 Oct. 1629, on Cradock's resignat. and in 1631, 2, and 3; third, Dudley, May 1634; fourth, Haynes, May 1635; fifth, Vane, 1636; next yr. Winthrop again, and two foll. yrs.; and Dudley, again, in 1640; sixth, Bellingham, 1641; next yr. Winthrop again, and rechos. the yr. foll.; seventh, Endicott, 1644; next yr. Dudley, again; and the foll. Winthrop again, three yrs. till his d. Honor eno. there is for Endicott, the earliest patentee wh. came over under the indenture from the Plymouth Company, without challeng. for him any that does not belong to him. He was the first, and only, Gov. of London's Planta. and if he ever was qualif. by tak. the oaths under that delegat. from the Gov. and Comp. of Mass. (wh. is unlikely, or at least cannot be prov.) he never had a successor in that office, wh. was merg. in the superior title on arr. of Winthrop a few mos. after. With scrupul. precision, Increase Mather calls Winthrop "the First Gov. that New Eng. saw at the head of the Mass. Col." On 13 May 1629 (the Charter day of the Gen. Court for elections), Endicott was not chos. an Assist. or other officer of Mass. Bay, being absent; still, however, he contin. head of the Planta. as much as he had been a fortnight, and, indeed, on his arr. eight mos. bef. no other patentee being on this side of the ocean; but on 20 Oct. next, at the election in London (after transfer of the whole authority of the patent to those wh. would come to N. E.), when Winthrop was chos. gov. and Humphrey dep. gov. immediat. on resignat. of Cradock and Goffe, he was again rais. to be one of the eighteen assist. being the first time he was ever chos. under the Chart. In this office, to the duty of wh. he took the o. to qualif. him (as he could not earlier), 7 Sept. 1630, he cont. 9 yrs. by success. elect. exc. in 1633, when for his indiscreet zeal against the cross in the ensign, he was left out; but in 1636 he was made head of the first exped. against the Pequots; in 1641, for the first time, dep. gov. [[122]] acc. the Chart. and sev. times after, and in 1644 gov. for the first time, with full power acc. the Chart. and again, after d. of Winthrop 1649, 51, 2, 3,and from 1655 to his own d. at Boston (where he had resid. near. ten yrs.) 15 Mar. 1665, serv. a longer period than any other of the govs. under the old Chart. and by Shirley alone exceed. since. Capt. Johnson in his "Wonderworking Providences of Zion's Saviour in N. E." honors him in cap. IX. of his first book with appropriate rhymes, as John Endicott, "twice Governor of the Eng." so, I suppose, must refer to the elections of 1644, during Winthrop life, and immediat. after his d. in 1649, the date of his writing. Scottow, too, in his "Narrative of the Planting" of our Col. p. 12, or as it may be read in the reprint in 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. IV. must be understood to intend the prior title of Winthrop when the "choice of a governor and deputy TO ABIDE THERE" is told in that valua. paragraph on pp. 289-90. Gov. Danforth, also, in his exact enumerat. of yrs. in wh. his friend E. had been Gov. makes the earliest of the sixteen to be 1644. See his valua. papers in 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 52. I think Mr. Felt, in Ann. of Salem, I. 106, first, after a differ. general opin. for two hundred yrs. in 1845 suggest. the right of E. in "precedency to Mr. Winthrop;" and he explains his view of "an error in rank" by the note, on same page, that Roger Conant "may be truly said to have preceded both Messrs. Endicott and Winthrop IN SUCH OFFICE FOR A PART OF THIS COMMONWEALTH." In Geneal. Reg. XII. 133-7, he elaborate. discuss. the quest. "what office did J. E. sustain, after arr. 6 Sept. 1628, to his elect. by the [gov. and comp.] 30 Apr. 1629." But I am satisfied that his decision against the opin. of Gov. Hutch. will not be sustain. nor does it seem to me, that Endicott is entit. to any more office than the Plymouth comp. gave by their deed indent. He was sole propr. in Mass. and act. with the absolute power of the other patentees in I Eng. and Mr. Felt rather lessens than enlarges his right by reference to the votes of our gov. and comp. in London. As their grant of office 30 Apr. 1629 never took effect, it must be regard. as if never passed. Dr. Young, in n. on p. 196 of Chron. of Mass. falls into similar error (of find. justificat. of E. in displac. the Browns in this instr.), when E. had acted in thus shipping off the Browns before this instr. came to his hand. Endicott was of stern energy, but great prudence in secular affairs, disappr. the conduct of his friends in Eng. for putting to death their king, with such strange mockery of solemnity, and issued warrant for apprehens. of Whalley and Goffe, the regicides, here. Much of the sad occurrences of cruel scourg. of the Bapt. 1651 and hang. of the Quak. 1659, that fell within his admin. must be charg. to Wilson or Norton, the spirit. advisers of the day; and tho. Leverett, or Bradstreet would have, perhaps, successf. resist. such inflict. of counsel, we kn. the cruel bigotry of Dudley or Bellingham would have gone against tolerat. as far and as fiercely as Endicott. 5, His first w.

Elizabeth Gibson (from Cambridge in Eng. says the fam. geneal.) had John, b. a. 1632; and Zerubbabel, a. 1635. He and his descend. to the fourth generat. wrote the sec. syl. with e, but the i has prevail. since. JOHN, Boston, s. of the preced. m. 9 Nov. 1653, Elizabeth d. of Jeremiah Howchin, had no ch. d. 1668. His will of 27 Jan. was pro. four wks. after. His wid. m. the same yr. Rev. James Allen. WILLIAM, Boston, mariner, in his will of 23 Apr. 1690, pro. 26 Jan. 1692, he gave personal tools to his s.-in-law John Bell, and resid. of est. to w. Joanna. WILLIAM, Boston, by w.

Often this man's name begins with I, and the births, 1702 and 3, are insert. under both letters in the rec. but bef. always have E, and after, I, but not both. ZERUBBABEL, Salem, s. of the gov. a physician, freem. 1665, by w.

He agreed to m. the same yr. of his w.'s d. (as in Geneal. Reg. VI. 252, is found by Coffin) Elizabeth Kimball, but, it seems, with or without reasona. excuse, took for 2d w. Elizabeth wid. of Rev. Antipas Newman, d. of Gov. John Winthrop of Conn. He sometimes resid. at Topsfield on the ancestr. est. but the farm, on wh. he and his f. had most expend. their affect. was in that part of S. now Danvers, call. by the gov. the Orchard, still cultiv. by his descend.

The f. d. 23 Dec. bef. JAMES, Boston, m. 7 Jan. 1658, perhaps as sec. w. Joanna, d. of John Farnum, wh. was not 14 yrs. old. We kn. too little of him to affirm or deny that he was d. 14 Mar. 1698; freem. 1691; or that he may be the man in last parag. MAUDETT, Boston, by w.

By Mary he had seven ch., Philip, b. 4 Sept. 1684; William, 23 May 1679, d. young; Mary, 21 Feb. 1677; and Susanna, 5 July 1683; Names of the rest are unkn. and William, again, 7 Apr. 1690, wh. d. bef. his f.

His f. was prob. a Huguenot, and his own name, at bapt. was Philippe LÕAnglois, but he was brot. to the font by Sir Philip Carteret. To an excel. tract in Hist.

JONATHAN, Lancaster, s. of Jonas, m. 24 Aug. 1688, Mary Howard of Concord, had Hannah, and Mary, wh. were saved, when he was k. with two other ch. by the Ind. 1697.

DANIEL, Salem 1639, called a half Dutchman, the unhappy subject of severe punishm. relat. by Winthrop II. 46. He had liberty in 1656 to go with w. and ch. to Eng. and prob. wish. not to return. DANIEL, Weymouth, by w. Sarah had James, b. 18 Mar. 1666; a ch. 24 Aug. 1667; and Sarah, 25 Aug. 1670. He was, prob. f. of Daniel, b. at Braintree, 18 Sept. 1662, whose diligence in keep. a Diary from 1689 to 1711, presented to the Hist. Soc. by Rev.

JOHN, Charlestown 1638, Salem 1639, freem. 14 May 1640, had John,bapt. 27 June 1641; and d. a. 1647, leav. wid. Elizabeth (wh. m. Peter Palfrey), and [[138]] ch.

FAIRMAN, JOHN, Enfield, one of the first sett. had James, b. 1683, perhaps others bef. and d. 1684. He wrote his name Ferman, and may have been s. or gr.s. of John Firmin of Watertown. FAIRWEATHER, or FAYERWEATHER, * JOHN, Boston, s. of Thomas, m. 15 Nov. 1660, Sarah, d. of Robert Turner, had Thomas, Penelope, and John, all bapt. 12 June 1670; and a ch. 28 Apr. 1672; was a constable and freem. 1673, a capt. rep. 1684, made command. of the Castle at the Revo.

THOMAS, Boston, came early, perhaps in the fleet with Winthrop for his name stands in the ch. list No. 101, bef. dates are found, freem. 14 May 1634, by w. Mary had John, bapt. 21 Sept. 1634; and Mary, b. Nov. 1636, bapt. 5 Mar. 1637, d. Nov. 1638. His s. Thomas d. Aug. 1638; and he d. late in 1638.

FALDOE, BARTHOLOMEW, a youth of 16, emb. in the Planter 1635, to come from London, but no more is seen of him. FALES, spelled VALES, sometimes in col. rec. JAMES, Medfield, was freem. 1673. JAMES, Dedham, perhaps s. of the preced. was freem. 1684. JOHN, Wrentham, m. 20 June 1684, Abigail Hawes, had John, b. 22 Apr. 1685, d. young; John, again, 19 Apr. 1689; and Joseph, 8 Sept. 1691.

The name is easily confused, from likeness of double f. to cap. H with Holloway or Halloway. FANE, HENRY, Boston 1648, turner, had w. Elizabeth FANEUIL, ANDREW, Boston, a Huguenot merch. from Amsterdam, to wh. city he fled from his native Rochelle, rec. as inhab. of the Col. 1 Feb. 1692, as is told in note to Drake's valua. Hist. of Boston, 536, in comp. with his brs. Benjamin and John. But some uncertainty exists, whether either of his brs. were ever resid. in N. E. Of John, certainly, the doubt is strong, for Sargent, in his delightful "Dealings with the Dead," 506, asserts that he held fast to the ancient form of religion, "and liv. and died, a Roman Catholic." In the will of Andrew, giv. him £100, he is call. of Rochelle. xxxiii. 205. Whether he had come over, and went home in disgust at the Puritans of N. E. be more prob. than ano. hypothesis, that his brs. kn. there could be no harm in obtain. license for his adm. and, at least, their desire would be as reputable to them tho. their br. took not benefit of it, is beyond means of solution. Benjamin m. indeed, at Kingstown, 28 July 1699, Ann Bureau, and he signed a certific. at Boston near three yrs. bef. in favor of Gabriel Bernon's attempt. settlem. at Oxford, in Co. Worcester, as in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. II. 60, is print. so that he may well seem to have encourag,. that French planta if not even to have liv. there some time; yet with many other of his countrymen he had made New Rochelle, in the jurisdict. of New York, only 20 ms. from the city, his proper home, and there were b. all his eleven ch.

E. upon this favorite relat. yet bef. 12 Sept. 1734, when he made his will, he had driv. that neph. from his house, and in that instru. bequeath. him "five shillings and no more." In that doc. with codic. of 23 Jan. 1738, abundant est. was convey. He d. 13 Feb. foll. Between £7,000 and £9,000 he gave to other relat. and friends, but the greater part of his wealth to his neph.

BENJAMIN, Boston, merch. s. of Benjamin of the Province of New York, Mary Cutler, had Benjamin, Mary, and Peter, was happily disinherit. by his uncle Andrew, and gained longer life and good est. rem. to Cambridge [[140]] and built beautif. mansion in that part now Brighton, d.

FANNING, ANDREW, Stonington, perhaps, but only kn. to us as emb. 6 Feb. 1679, in the Diligence, to come to N. E. as serv. of Daniel Stanton. EDMUND, New London 1652, is by tradit.said to have escaped from the Irish Massacre, 1641, but it has not told any thing of the eleven yrs. interval; rem. to Stonington bef. 1670, and sometime after, came back to N.

THOMAS, Watertown, m. 17 May 1655, Elizabeth d. of Robert Daniel, had Elizabeth b. 5 Apr. 1656; Mary, 12 Nov. 1657, d. in few weeks; Mary, again, 28 Oct. 1662, m. 10 June 1680, Benoni Larned; and Sarah, 18 July 1665.

FAREWELL, GEORGE, Salem, had practised law sev. yrs. was made clk. of that Court instit. by Sir Edmund Andros 1687, at Ipswich, for; trial of friends of freedom. Felt. Of course, he was imprison. at the Revo. in Apr. 1689. FARGO, MOSES, New London 1680, a smith, by w. Sarah had Moses, b. 1691, and eight others, whose names are not seen. FARLEY, CALEB, Billerica, s. prob. of George, freem. 1690, had Ebenezer, b. 3 Apr. 1674; George, 30 July 1677; both at Woburn; Caleb, and sev. other ch. rem. perhaps with part of his fam. to Roxbury, there d. 16 Mar. 1712; and Lydia, his wid. d. 19 Nov. 1715. Perhaps this caused Farmer to say that George, his f. was at R. bef. going to Woburn; but I find no ment. of this name at R. bef. the eighteenth cent. Caleb, a descend. of George, b. at Billerica, d. 5 Apr. 1833, aged 102, at Hollis, and the fam. is much diffused in that and neighb. parts of N. H. GEORGE, Woburn, m. 9 Apr. 1641, Christian Births; wh. prob. d. soon after; petnr. with many others in 1655 for relig. liberty, as in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll.

Beatrice had James, b. 23 Nov. 1643, d. next Feb.; Caleb, 1 [[141]] Apr. 1645; Mary, 27 Feb. 1647; Timothy; and perhaps more ch. at W.; at Billerica, by w. Christian, had Samuel, b. last week of Mar. 1655; and Mehitable, last week of May 1656; d. at B. 27 Dec. 1693. Farmer says he was early mem. of the Bapt. ch. at Boston, where the spelling is Farlow. Timothy was k. with seven others by the Ind. at Brookfield 2 Aug. 1675. MESHACK, or MESHECH, Ipswich, s. of Michael, m. 6 Aug. 1684, Sarah, d. of Thomas Barnham, wid. of .....Clark, had Meshack, b. 10 June 1685; Michael, 2 Aug. 1686; and Jane, d. young; d. bef. his f. leav. wid. Sarah, and s. Meshack, and Michael. Admin. was gr. 23 Dec. 1696, and the two s. acknowledged rec. 14 Mar. 1712, from their uncle Michael, of their portions of f.'s est. and the elder of these two s. d. 6 Mar. 1716. MICHAEL, Ipswich, sent over, says Farmer, 1675, from Eng. by Richard Saltonstall to have care of his fulling mill, had Meshack, bef. ment. and Michael. MICHAEL, Ipswich, s. perhaps, of Meshack, but more prob. of the preced. m. 1708, Mary, wid. of Benjamin Woodbury of Beverly, had issue, it is thought; and perhaps Gen. Michael, wh. d. 20 June 1789, Shf. of Essex, was a descend. Seven of this name had been gr. at Harv. 1834, and three at other N. E. coll. FARMAN, RALPH, came from London, a barber-surgeon 1635, aged 32, in the James, with w. Alice, 28; ch. Mary, 7; Thomas, 4; and Ralph, 2; but I find nothing of his resid. or d. and think it not improb. that he was one of the first sett. of Andover, and his name was Farnum or Farnham. But THOMAS Farman was of Milford 1658, and may not have been s. of the preced. FARMER, EDWARD, Billerica, s. of John of Ansley, or Anceley, near Atherstone in Warwicksh. came in 1671 or 2 with his mo. Isabella, a wid. wh. m.

THOMAS, Billerica 1675, prob. br. of first Edward, perhaps came with him, is not heard of after 1684, and may have gone home. THOMAS, Billerica, s. of Edward the first, m. Elizabeth Hunt as in his Fam. Register, Concord, 1813, wrote the gr. antiq. (but a modern authority, not of higher reput. for accur. in a "Genealog. Memoir," p. 27, gives the name Sarah), had Thomas; Joseph, d. soon; Joseph, again; Susanna; Josiah, or Jonas; Elizabeth; Joshua; Samuel; and Benjamin. He and his w. d. at Hollis, a. 1767, and were bur. in one gr. A large genealog. mem. of many branches of first Edward's descend. is giv. in Geneal. Reg. but it has nothing beyond the names of the ch. of the eldest s. and of those of Thomas. In the royal chart. for Virg. 1609 are found John and George Farmer, gent. Haz. I. 61-3. FARNHAM, FARNAM, or FARNUM, EPHRAIM, Andover, s. of Ralph, m. 20 Mar. 1700, Priscilla Holt, had Ephraim, Joseph, Zebediah, Josiah, James, and perhaps others. || HENRY, Roxbury, joiner, ar. co. 1644, freem. 1645; the name in ch. rec. being Farnham, but in col. rec. made Firnam, was not long at R. perhaps went to L. I. thence to Conn. certainly was of Killingworth 1666, a deac. d. 13 Jan. 1700; left only s. Peter.

Tradit. makes him come from Wales, but I can hardly receive it. Who was his f. I have not learned, but imagine his name to have been Ralph, and that he was f. of Mary, wh. m. at Andover, 20 Oct. 1650, Daniel Poor; and of Sarah, wh. m. 26 Apr. 1658, George Abbot. See Farman.

Descend. of these Andover stocks are many, usually writing the name, as did, also, John of Dorchester, Farnham. But at the various N. E. coll. it is not easy to adjust them.

Elizabeth had Mary, b. 30 Mar. 1637; Hannah, 14 Dec. 1638; Rebecca, 2 Jan. 1640; and Ruth, 3 June 1642; beside Joseph, Samuel, and perhaps others, by sec. w. wid. Mary Long; was selectman 1647, and d. 12 Jan. 1660. In his will of 2 Jan. preced. Geneal. Reg. IX. 140, provis. is made for his w. Mary and her two ch. by former h.

His will is of Jan. in that yr. See Butler's Hist. 395, 6. Mary m. 11 Apr. 1676, Samuel Thatcher of [[144]] Watertown. SAMUEL, Windsor, s. of Joseph, m. 3 June 1677, Mary, d. of Thomas Stoughton, the sec. had Mary, b. 17 May 1678, d. in few days; and his w. d. 28 Aug. 1684. Next yr. in Nov. he m. Mary, d. of John Moses, had Joseph, b. 1694. Early this name was writ. without s. Two of this fam. had been gr. at Harv. 1828, and five at other N. E. coll. Calamy, Eject. Min. II. 840, ment. Mr. F. wh. came from N. E. and d. very poor. FARR, BARNABAS, Boston, perhaps not perman. inhab. d. 13 Dec. 1654.

Martha m. 18 Sept. 1661, William Clark of Boston; and Elizabeth m. 4 Apr. 1666, Nicholas Hutchins of Lynn. One Mary F. was m. 10 Jan. 1658, to James Mycall of Braintree, by Maj. Atherton.

JOSEPH, Lynn, s. of George, freem. 1682, m. 22 Sept. 1680, Hannah Walden, had Elizabeth b. 15 Aug. 1681; Mary, 28 Feb. 1684; and perhaps others. It has been supposed by some, that this name is the same as Farrar. FARRABAS, DANIEL, Cambridge, Concord, and Marlborough, m. 27 Jan. 1660, Rebecca Perriman, wh. d. 1 May 1677; and he m. 22 May 1679, Dorothy Rediat. By first w. he had Daniel, b. 20 Mar. 1664; Thomas, 7 Mar. 1667; Elizabeth 16 Mar. 1669; Rebecca, at Concord, 15 Feb. 1672; and by the sec. w. had John, b. at Marlborough, 1681; Isaac, 30 Oct.1682; and Jonathan, 23 Mar.1684; and d.

FARRAND, NATHANIEL, Milford 1645, was prob. f. of Elizabeth wh. m. 26 Sept. 1676, Walter Smith of the same; certain. of Hannah, wh. m. 1674, Thomas Thornton of Hartford. Of this name, five, perhaps all descend. have been gr. at Yale. FARRAR, EPHRAIM, soldier of Capt. Lothrop's Comp. call. "the flower of Essex," k. 18 Sept. 1675, by the Ind. at Bloody brook. GEORGE, Lancaster, s. of Jacob, m. 7 Sept. 1692, Mary How of Concord, whither, I suppose, he rem. and prob. sat down in that part now Lincoln, had Joseph; Daniel; George, b. 16 Feb. 1705, f. of Rev. George, H. C. 1751, wh. d. early, and of Rev. Joseph, H. C. 1767, min. of Dublin, N. H. and a chaplain in the war of the Revo.; and Samuel, [[145]] 28 Sept. 1708, f. of Rev. Stephen, H.

JACOB, Lancaster, at the incorpo. 1653, k. by the Ind. 22 Aug. 1675, had, it is said, s. Jacob. JACOB, Lancaster, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. a. 1643, by w. Hannah had Jacob, b. 29 Mar. 1669; George, 16 Aug. 1670; Joseph, 16 Aug. 1672; and John.

He d. 11 July 1690, made his win 29 June 1687; and his wid. liv. long. Joanna m. 30 Nov. 1680, Robert Doyle. THOMAS, Lynn 1639, whose w. Elizabeth d. 8 Jan. 1681, had Thomas; Sarah; Hannah; Susanna, b. 26 Mar. 1659; Peleg, and Mehitable, tw. 6 Oct. 1660, d. soon; and Elizabeth wh. d. young; was freem. 1690, and d. 23 Feb. 1694. He was less than two yrs. bef. accus. of witchcraft, and some of the evid. (of wh. the most significant was, that "people used to call him old f. Pharaoh") may be read in Geneal. Reg. VI. 317. Sarah m. 20 May 1667, Meletiah Lothrop. THOMAS, Lynn, s. of the preced. m. 3 Mar. 1682, Abigail Collins, freem. 1691; was selectman 1692, d. a. 1733. His win of 5 June 1730, pro. 11 Jan. 1734, names w. Elizabeth Rebecca Bassett, and her h. William; Richard Hood, and Samuel Newhall, call. kinsmen; and kinswo. Hannah, w. of Edmund Needham; but how the relationship grew is not seen. Seven of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and nine at other N. E. coll. In old rec. it often appears Farrow. FARRELL, BENJAMIN, a soldier of Lothrop's comp. call. "the flower of Essex," k. at Bloody brook, 18 Sept. 1675. Perhaps the name may have been Farwell. FARRINGTON, DANIEL, Wrentham 1695, perhaps s. of John of Dedham, had w. Abigail. EDMUND, Lynn, from Olney in Bucks, came in the Hopewell, Capt. Bundocke, 1635, aged 47, with w. Elizabeth 49, and ch. Sarah, 14; Matthew, 12; John, 11; and Elizabeth 8; was of the first project of sett. on L. I. 1640, perhaps went thither, but came back in few yrs. and d. 20 Jan. 1671. EDWARD, Andover, wh. m. Martha Browne, 9 Apr. 1690, was s. of the first John. JACOB, Andover, d. 29 June 1667, perhaps leav. wid. Elizabeth wh. m. 14 Nov. foll. Mark Graves; but he may have been unm. and she his mo. JOHN, Lynn, s. of Edmund, b. in Eng. rem. to L. I. 1640, with Rev. Abraham Pierson, and some yrs. later, came back, for the Lynn rec. has ch. of a John, by w. Elizabeth viz. Edward, b. 5 July 1662; John, 9 Mar. 1664; and Jacob, 22 July 1666. Yet perhaps as many, or more, were b. to [[146]] him on L. I. He d. at Lynn, 2 May 1666, and his wid. gave his inv. next mo.

JOHN, Lynn, perhaps s. of Matthew, b. at L. I. was soldier in brave Capt. Gardner's comp. and wound. in the gr. fight of 19 Dec. 1675; m. 7 Oct. 1679, Lydia Hudson, had John, b. 22 Nov. 1680; and Mary, 2 Oct. 1685, was freem. 1681. MATTHEW, Lynn, s. of Edmund, b. in Eng. had, perhaps, accomp. his f. to L. I. with so many other neighbors, there m. had ch. and came back, and I presume those ch. wh. the town rec. shows were b. here, as Sarah, 13 Feb. 1658, d. next yr.; William, 6 May 1660; Sarah, again, 15 June 1663; and Theophilus, 13 Aug. 1666. MATTHEW, Lynn, s. of the preced. prob. tho. not rec. here, had Sarah, b. perhaps 1 Feb. 1676, d. 26 Nov. foll.; Sarah, again, 20 Sept. 1677; Martha, 2 May 1679; and Samuel, 29 Sept. 1681; was freem. 1691, at the same time with Theophilus and William, no doubt his brs. THOMAS, Newtown, L. I. may have been of the Lynn breed, possib. elder br. of first Matthew. WILLIAM, Lynn, s. of first Matthew, had William, b. 16 May 1684. FARROW, GEORGE, Ipswich 1637, m. 16 Feb. 1644, Ann Whitmore, perhaps d. of the first John, had Mary, b. 6 Jan. 1645; Martha, 25 Feb. 1647; and George, 9 May 1650. This s. I presume, was the man k. by the Ind. at Wells, 27 Sept. 1676, as he left three ds. but William Symonds, and Joseph Storer were admors. He is ment. by Hubbard, his townsman, in Ind. Wars. JOHN, Hingham, came from Hingham, Eng. 1635, with w. Frances and one ch. Mary, wh. m. 25 Oct. 1649, Samuel Stowell, and 10 Apr. 1689, Joshua Beal; had here John, b. 6 June 1639; Remember, bapt.

His will of 28 Mar. pro. 17 Aug. 1687, ment. w. and all the ch. exc. Hannah, gr.d. Mary, w. of his gr.s. John Garnett, and gr.ch. Frances, and Nathan, of his d. Remember. His wid. d. 28 Jan. after him.

He had ano. w. 23 Mar. 1711, Joanna, wid. of Thomas Whiton, wh. was d. of Samuel May of Roxbury, and had been wid. of Francis Gardner of H. and d. 18 Oct. 1715. His will of 7 Oct. 1715, pro. 14 Oct. 1718, names w. and all the ch. It is thot. by some, that this is the same with Farrar, but I do not incline to that opin. while owning that often the spel. of the names is interchang. FARWELL, GEORGE, Boston, one of the adher. of Andros, wh. was imprison. 1689. HENRY, Concord, freem. 14 Mar. 1639, had w. Olive, s. Joseph, b. 20 Feb. 1641; James; perhaps Henry; John; Mary; Olive; and Elizabeth rem. to Chelmsford, there d. 1 Aug. 1670. His will, made three wks. bef. ment. w. Olive, ch.

Oct. 1672; rem. to Billerica, where his name, on the tax list of 1679, with a varied spell. is print. in Geneal. Reg. V. 173. FAULKNER, DAVID, Boston, perhaps s. or br. of Thomas of the same, by w. Mary had Martha, b. 30 Mar. 1653; Mary, 10 Nov. 1654; Thomas, 26 Sept. 1656; and I kn. no more of him, but find DAVID, Malden, by w. Elizabeth had David, b. 17 May 1687; and Benjamin, 25 Feb. 1698. EDMUND, Andover, m. (4 Feb. 1648, as the rec. shows, but Farmer says 4 July bef.) Dorothy Robinson, wh. d. 2 Dec. 1668, had Francis, b.

JOHN, Andover, br. of the preced. m. 19 Oct. 1682, Sarah, d. of George Abbot, had Sarah, wh. d. 1 Sept. 1689; and perhaps others, and d. 1706. THOMAS, Boston, d. 1656, his inv. being tak. 22 July of that yr. amt. £153.09. FAUNCE, JOHN, Plymouth, came in the Ann 1623, prob. young, for no w. or ch. is ment. for ten yrs. m. 1633, Patience, d. of George Morton, had Priscilla, wh. m.

The name, Manasseh F. wh. stands next to his in the list of passengers in the Ann, must be, without doubt, for M. Kempton.

FAWER, or FOWER, BARNABAS, Dorchester, came 1635, in the James from Bristol as comp. with Rev. Richard Mather [see Young's Chron. of Mass. 450], was an assessor in 1638; by w. Dinah wh. came perhaps from Eng. with him, he had other ch. but we kn. only Eleazer, b. 18 Sept. 1642. His w. d. 9 days after; and for sec. w. he took 10 Mar. 1643, Grace, sis. of Jonathan Negoose; rem. to Boston, and d. 13 Dec. 1654; in his will, pro. 2 Feb. foll. ord. that his s. Eleazer be brought up at Mr. Cheever's sch. His wid. m. John Johnson of Roxbury. Great variety is exhib. in spell. this name; the rec. of Watertown, where he owned some ld. calls it Farr; Boston ch. rec. has it Fore; Blake's Ann.

ELEAZER, Dorchester, s. of the preced. m. 28 May 1662, Mary, d. of Daniel Preston, had Gibson, b. 1666. He made his will 13 Nov. 1665, "bound to sea," prob. never came back. His wid. m. it is said, Samuel Jenkins of Scituate, 6 July 1670. But I find no such person at S. Possib. it was S. J. of Greenwich, two yrs. later. FAWNE, JOHN, Ipswich, freem. 2 Sept. 1635, with prefix of resp. rem. to Haverhill, had w. Elizabeth and one of his ds. m. Robert Clement.

Shattuck says his wid. m. 30 July 1695, William Brigham, perhaps ar. co. 1678, freem. 1690, may be the progenit. of the num. race in Southborough and vicin. RICHARD, Dorchester 1634.

FENWICK, GEORGE, Saybrook, came in May 1636 to Boston from Eng. not, as often said, 1635 (as by the letters of 10 and 23 June of the later yr. from Gov. Winthrop to his s. John, agent of Fenwick, Lords Say, Brook, and others, is plain), went home the same yr. or the foll. but came back with his w. and childr. arr. in July 1639 at New Haven with two ships, the first, and perhaps the last, that ever came direct to that port from Eng.

He serv. in Philip's war, espec. at the Falls fight under Turner, 18 May 1676, in revenge for wh. (it is believ.) he was k. over 20 yrs. later, in time of peace, by the Ind. 24 July 1697. THOMAS, Salem, m. 2 Mar. 1681, Mary, d. of John Leach, had Thomas, b. 17 Jan. foll.; Mary, 4 Sept. 1683; and Samuel, 5 Dec. of uncert. yr.

WILLIAM, Providence, s. perhaps of Thomas, had Thomas, b. 3 Jan. 1670; Mary, 1 June 1673; Elizabeth 27 Aug. of yr. not visible; Amos, without day or month, 1677; and William, 8 June 1682, as in his fam. bible is writ. ZECHARIAH, Hartford 1639, had w.

He was b. at Broughton, Co. Oxford, bred at the University of that city, d. 14 Apr. 1662, always a good fr. of N. E. and one of the patentees of Conn. Trumbull, Hist. I. 495. One [[158]] of his ds. m. Theophilus, Earl of Lincoln, wh. was br. of the ws. of our Isaac Johnson and John Humphrey. FIFIELD, ABRAHAM, Woburn, perhaps s. of Giles, d. 11 Sept. 1711, aged 57.

GILES, Charlestown, m. 7 June 1652, Mary, d. of Abraham Perkins of Hampton, had two or more ch. and rem. to Hampton, there had Mary, b. 28 Nov. 1659, d. soon; perhaps went back in few yrs. to C. and had there bapt.

FILCHER ------, Braintree, an officer of the sett. at Mount Wollaston 1626. Prince, in Ann. prints the name Fitcher, and Baylies, I. 135, obeys him; but Morton, 136, Hubbard, 103, Increase Mather, and others, give it as above. He was driven away by the wild company of Morton of Merry Mount, as the Plymouth Morton tells. FILER, or FYLER, GEORGE, Northampton, a surgeon, neph. of Walter, had Judith, b. 1664; and Samuel, 1666; rem. to Westfield, bec. a Quaker, and rem. it is thought, to Shelter isl. 1674.

FILIN, or FILEEN, JOHN, came 1637, in the Mary Ann from Yarmouth, in comp. with Philemon Dickinson, as servants of Benjamin Cooper, who was of Brampton in Suff. No more is kn. of him. FILLEBROWN, THOMAS, Charlestown 1658, Cambridge 1665, or earlier, by w. Anna had Thomas ; and Mary, both b. bef. 1666; Anna, bapt. 14 Oct. 1666, d. 9 Aug. 1685.

But it is observ. he supposes him to be s. of Gordon F. when we believe no such person existed. The error prob. arose from misread. the abbr.--Goo. for goodman, as if it were a name of bapt.--Gordon. Mary m. 8 Oct. 1688, Nathaniel Cutter. THOMAS, Cambridge, s. of the preced. m. 16 Dec. 1688, Rebecca, d. of Richard Cutter.

FINCH, ABRAHAM, Wethersfield, was first, prob. of Watertown, and freem. 3 Sept. 1634, but rem. soon, was, it is said, constable 1636, in Conn. fell in the Pequot war 1637; and in 1640, when his s. was a minor, the est. was admin. He left only s. Abraham. The wid. Dorothy m. in 1637 or 8, John Edwards, had six ch. by him, and after m. Richard Tousley of Saybrook, in 1676 was a third time wid. ABRAHAM, Wethersfield, s. of the preced. rem. with his mo. to Saybrook. freem. 1658, d. unm. and gave his prop. to sis. ch. of John Edwards. DANIEL, prob. of Watertown, and br. it may be of first Abraham, came, I suppose, in the fleet with Winthrop freem. 18 May 1631, rem. to Wethersfield, with first sett. there was, perhaps, constable 1636; thence to Stamford, of wh. he was one of the orig. proprs. and in 1653 to Fairfield, there made contr. of m. 25 Dec. 1657, with Elizabeth wid. of John Thompson of the same, and d. Mar. 1667; in his will names s. Nathaniel, with gr.ch. Abraham and three ds. HENRY, a soldier in Turner's comp. [[160]] 1 Mar. 1676. JOHN, Watertown 1630, perhaps br. of Daniel, rem. 1637, to Wethersfield, there was k. 30 Oct. 1637, by Nepaupuck, a Pequot capt. who for that act, says Trumbull, I. 112, was, after trial, put to death, 30 Oct. 1639. But Dr. Bacon shows, 339-43 from the rec. that the poor Ind. suffered for k. Abraham, not John, which was in open war, for Conn. had declared it 1 May preced. and so appears a sad example (would it had been the last in our country!) of judicial murder. JOSEPH, Greenwich 1672. SAMUEL, Roxbury, freem. 14 May 1634, was some time at Wethersfield, came back to R. and m. 13 Dec. 1654, Judith, wid. I think, of William Potter, as sec. w. for in 1638 he had w.

Phebe d. 1710, aged 91. More common spell. of this name is Phinney, wh. see. FIRMIN, FERMAN, or FIRMAN, GILES, Boston, came from Sudbury in Co. Suff. 1630, no doubt with Rev. George Phillips, wh. was min. of that parish, in the fleet with Winthrop first sat down at Watertown with his former teach. but rem. in two yrs. to B. where his s. of the same name had some time prior join. our ch.; was chos. deac. in 1633, and a selectman, freem. 4 Mar. 1634, and d. in Sept. foll. GILES, Boston, s. of the preced. came, perhaps, with his f. 1630, but sett. at B. bef. him, rem. prob. with Rev. John Ward, his br.-in-law, to Haverhill, but first was at Ipswich 1638, freem. 22 May 1639; m. Susan, d. of Rev. Nathaniel Ward; practised physic, hav. been bred at the univ. of Cambridge; in 1644, or soon after, went home, and preach. with gr. effect, sett. as rector at Shalford in Essex. In a sermon bef. Parliam. and the Westminster Assembly, he said, that in our country, in seven yrs. "I never heard one profane oath, and all that time never did see a man drunk," wh. is better proof of his keeping good comp. than of searching for opportunity. Punishm. were frequent enough for such offences; but his presence was, no doubt, protection of both eyes and ears. He was ejected, as Calamy shows, in 1662, and d. at Ridgewell, Apr. 1697. JOHN, Watertown 1630, came, prob. in the fleet with Winthrop lost his hut by fire in Nov. of the first yr. freem. 18 May 1631. Perhaps he went home, and came again, from Ipswich in Suff. by the Elizabeth 1634, aged 46, was selectman 1638, and deac. JOSIAH, Boston 1640, liv. with Gov. Winthrop freem. 2 June 1641.

GABRIEL, Boston, an early inhab. rem. 1638 to Exeter, but in short time came to B. again, by w.

Perhaps by a former w. he had Daniel, bef. ment. and THOMAS, wh. d. bef. his f. but had left s. Preserved. Yet it may be that f. and s. are confus.

By her will of 8 Apr. 1675, pro. 1 Feb. 1677, the wid. Ann helps construct. of the preced. and the will of Lydia, wid. of Joshua, 29 Mar. 1680, speaks of her s. Vigilance and d. Mary Clap, shows she was w. of lieut. Joshua of whose est. as he d. intest. admin. was giv. 10 Feb. 1709 to s. Joshua, and John.

STEPHEN, Billerica, aged man, d. 26 Dec. 1682. THOMAS, Cambridge 1634, came, perhaps, from Winton in Eng. but it is not told whether the town were in Westmoreland or Yorksh. and I doubt the spell. may have been Winston, in Co.

FISKE, BENJAMIN, Medfield, m. 1674, Bathshua Morse, had Benjamin, and other ch. Possib. he was s. of William. DAVID, Watertown 1637 or earlier, had w. Sarah, d. of Edmund Smith of Wrentham in Co.

In 1686 he gave import. depon. then call. hims. 63, and he d. 14 Feb. 1711, when his gr.st. makes him 87, so that Barry here fails of his usual care. He liv. at the Cambridge Farms, now Lexington.

Bond says, his w. d. 22 Apr. 1729; and he d. says the gr.stone, 23 Oct. 1729. DAVID, Watertown, s. of the first Nathan, m. 15 Dec. 1675, Elizabeth d. of George Reed of Woburn, had Nathan, b. a. 1676; and David, 11 Dec. 1678. He d. a. 1694. JAMES, Salem 1641, or earlier, s. of Thomas of Co. Suff. Eng. unless he were s. of Phineas, as to me seems more prob. freem. 18 May 1642, rem. to Haverhill, there by w. Ann had James, b. 8 Aug. 1649; John, 10 Dec. 1651; Ann, 1654, d. soon; Ann, again, 1656; and Samuel, 1 Nov. 1658. JAMES, Groton, s. prob. of Phineas, b. in Eng. but we kn. little of him, exc. from his will of 14 June 1689, that nam. s. John, Samuel, and Thomas, beside d. Hannah; but prob. his w. was d. and he d. 4 July foll. His excors. were Nathaniel Lawrence, and Jonas Prsecott, wh. I judge the first of those names in that town. As Butler, in his valua. Hist. did not ment. him, it may be presum. that he had not long resid. there, or, at least, that neither of the ch. was b. in that place. JOHN, Wenham, s. of that John wh. d. 1633 (and was s. of William, s. of Robert, wh. was s. of Richard of Laxfield in Queen Mary's time); b. as Mather tells (in Magn. III. c. 24), a. 1601, at St. James parish in South Elmham, a subdiv. of the hundred of Wangford, Co. Suff. bred at King's Coll. Cambr. there took his A. B. 1625, tho. Mather makes it Emanuel, m. a. eight and twenty yrs. of age, by the same auth. 1629, Ann Gipps of Frinshall, Co. Norf. had, as tradit. said, two ch. wh. d. inf. but two others he brot. with his w. and a younger br. perhaps William, to Boston, 1637, sat down first at Cambridge, but rem. the same yr. to Salem, freem. 2 Nov. 1637, taught the gr. sch. among his pupils one being famous afterward as Sir George Downing, min. for Cromwell and Charles Il. at the Hague, had John, b. 29 Aug. bapt. 2 Sept. 1638, d. under nine yrs.; Sarah, 24, bapt. 26 July 1640; Moses, b. at Wenham, 12 Apr. bapt. at Salem by Mr. Norris in June 1642, H.

This renders Mather's acco. of the m. in 1629, impossib. and also the tradit. of his hav. had four ch. in Eng. as she was his first w. and makes it prob. that he brot. only one ch. On 1 Aug. foll. he m. Elizabeth wid. of Edmund Henchman, and he d. 14 Jan. 1677. His d. Ann m. Capt. John Brown of Reading, and d. 30 May 1681, aged 35. * JOHN, Wenham, s. of Phineas of the same, b. in Eng. constable 1643, rep. 1669, d. 1683, leav. wid.

After long protract. search, I can add that he m. 17 Jan. 1682, Hannah, d. of first John Baldwin, was s. of John the constable of Wenham, and gr.s. of Phineas of Wenham; and beside Benjamin, bapt. 1696, and perhaps Ebenezer, and John, wh. join. the ch. at M. 1714, had s.

He had there, by sec. w. Susanna, d. Susanna, b. 18 Mar. 1700. It may well be assum. that he was a relative to some Wenham Fiske, but in what degree is unkn. MOSES, Braintree, s. of Rev.

His shocking confession against hims. and the judges is in Hutch. II. 52. THOMAS, Wenham, prob. s. of the preced. m. 3 Nov. 1678, Rebecca, youngest ch. of Rev. William Perkins, was freem. 1690. * WILLIAM, Salem 1637, br. of Rev. John, with wh. he prob. came, as he had gr. of ld. that yr. freem. 18 May 1642, rem. to Wenham, and was the first town clk. or clk. of the writs, 1644, had by w. Bridget Musket of Pelham, m. in Eng. William, Samuel, Joseph, Benjamin, and Martha, some, perhaps most, b. in Eng. but William was bapt. at Salem 4 June 1643, yet he may have been 2d of the name; was rep. 1647-50, d. 1654. In the Col. Rec. I. 235, is settlem. of rights betw. him and his br. John, by wh. it seems that he was in Sept. 1638, under 24 yrs. of age. Endicot, Hathorne, and two other of the ch. men of S. made the terms of agreem. Prob. his wid. m. 3 Nov. 1661, Thomas Rix. of S. WILLIAM, Salem or Wenham, s. of the preced. was freem. 1670.

Of this name, sometimes spelled without e, twenty had many yrs. ago been gr. at Harv. of wh. 7 were clerg. and twenty at other N. E. coll. of wh. 9 were clerg. That the Coll. catal. capriciously divides the fam. is plain eno. as Rev. Moses has the authentic Eng. letters, and his s. Rev. Samuel loses the [[168]] final letter. Much of the foregoing is deriv. from a very val. tract on Suff. Emigr. by Rev. Joseph Hunter, F. A. S. in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 158, wh. informs us, that, at the Herald's office it appears, in early times, this fam. was entit. to coat armor. FITCH, * BENJAMIN, Reading, s. of Zechary, perhaps b. in Eng. had Benjamin, wh. d. 24 June 1662; and Zechary, wh. d. 16 Apr. 1684; was freem. 1679, rep. 1689, 91 and 2, deac. d. 1713.

Abigail, 24, and they both in Dec. foll. were adm. of our ch. had Elizabeth bapt. 15 May 1636; and I find no more of him, but that he was of Muddy riv. 1638. JAMES, Saybrook, b. 24 Dec. 1622, at Bocking, Co. Essex, was brot. a. 1638, to N. E. but where he was prepar. for the min. is unkn. tho. prob. with Hooker and Stone of Hartford, as the inscript. on his gr.st. tells, mak. the period of study seven yrs. and is in Mather's sec. classis. ord. 1646, by w.

Edward Taylor of Westfield, and d. 1689; Hannah m. it is said, Thomas Meeks, or Mix; Dorothy m. Nathaniel Bissell; and Ann m. 5 Oct. 1698, Joseph Bradford; but this makes strange discord with the Geneal. Reg. IV. 46 and 49. à JAMES, Lebanon, or Canterbury, eldest s. of the preced. was a man of importance, major, an Assist. of the Col. 1681, and prob. many yrs. later, m. 1 Jan. 1676, Elizabeth youngest d. of maj.

Of these seventeen no date for b. of any is seen; yet we have happiness of hear. the names of ten: James, Jedediah, Samuel, Abigail, Ebenezer, Daniel, Jeremiah, Thomas, Lucy, and Jabez. JEREMIAH, Lynn, 1634, rem. to Reading 1644. JEREMIAH, Boston, perhaps s. of the preced. or of Zachary, by w. Esther had Mary, b. 1 Mar. 1653; and his w. d. 14 Sept. 1656. Next he m. 6 Oct. 1657, Sarah Chubbuck of Hingham, had Jeremiah 5 Feb. 1660; was freem. 1690. Of his est. admin. was giv. 21 July 1692, to wid. Martha. His d. Deborah m.

JOHN, came in the Defence 1635, aged 14, and so might be suppos. br. of the first James; but a doubt arises, for the same London custom ho. rec. at Westminster Hall, I found, gave passage in the Blessing, on the same day, to one of the same name and age. Carelessness in parts of that rec. if not wilful mistakes, is quite apparent; but perhaps one of sev. foll. may be either passeng. JOHN, Rehoboth 1644, prob. had John, wh. was bur.

He had other ch. perhaps one or more b. in Eng. besides Ephraim, b. 14 Jan. 1642; and John; both above ment.; but tho. his will, made 21 Dec. 1651, "intending a voyage to our native country of Eng." provides for w. and childr. it does not name them, but commends the latter to care of Rev. Peter Bulkley and Rev. Henry Flint, Capt. Simon Willard, and uncle William Wood of Concord. THOMAS, Salem, d. 15 Apr. 1663, leav. by will made two wks. bef. good est. to wid. Ann and ch. Thomas; Elizabeth b. 30 June 1650; George, 6 Mar. 1653; John, 3 Dec. 1655; and Joseph; the ch. prob. all under age. The div. of his est. June 1680, betw. only Thomas and Joseph, under order of Ct. leads us to infer, that both of the other s. d. bef. mid. age. THOMAS, Salem, prob. s. of the preced. m. 22 May 1666, Hannah Moulton, d. prob. of sec. Robert, had Abigail, b. 27 June 1668; and George Apr. 1672; and his w. d. 20 Mar. 1674. He m. 15 Nov. foll.

Gardner was k. but serv. afterwards as ensign 1689 in the Danvers co. perhaps was freem. 1690. Ano. THOMAS of Salem m. 12 Aug. 1678, Elizabeth Johnson, had Ruth, b. 11 May foll.; Timothy, 30 Sept. 1680; John, 21 June 1684; Joseph, 1 Aug. 1687; and Abigail, 8 Aug. 1692.

Four of nine of this name gr. at Harv. up to 1834, were clerg. and three of seven, at other N. E. coll. FLOOD or FLOYD, EDMUND, Plymouth, came in the Ann, 1623, but was rem. bef. the div. of cattle in 1627. HENRY, Boston, by w. Mary had Henry, b. 27 Oct. 1666; Mary, 29 May 1668; Henry, again, 20 May 1671; and Jonathan, 16 Mar. 1673. JAMES, Boston, by w. Hannah had James, b. 6 Apr. 1668; Richard, 8 June 1670; Lydia, 10 July 1672; Joseph, 15 Feb. 1 67.j; Benjamin, 1 Feb. 1677; Abigail, 25 Sept. 1679; and John, 3 Aug. 1681. JOHN, Lynn, may have rem. to Salisbury, where was one of this name, aged 27 in 1679, or to Malden, where was John, freem. 1690, and d. early in 1702. By w. Sarah be had Hugh; John, b. 1666; Joseph; Daniel, 28 Dec. 1675; Sarah; and Abigail. JOSEPH, Dorchester 1635, perhaps br. of the preced. had Eleazer, bapt. 1638, was bailiff 1636, and rem. to Lynn. PHILIP, Newbury, came a. 1680 from New Jersey, to wh. he had been drawn, no doubt, by the Carterets, from Guernsey, by w. Mary had Joseph, b. 12 May 1684; Esther, 15 May 1686; Mary, 18 July 1688; Henry, 14 Aug. 1689; John, 11 Nov. 1693; Richard, 25 Feb. 1696; Rachel, 18 Mar. 1698; Philip, 24 Apr. 1700; and Benjamin, 2 May 1705. ROBERT, Wethersfield, m. Hinman, 26, says, 1646, Abigail, d. of Nicholas Disbrough of Hartford (but I think she was b. in 1649), d. 1689, leav. Robert, Abigail, John, Thomas, Mary, and George. Hinman, 211, says, his wid. Abigail m. Matthew Barry. Happy will he be, wh. can discrim. this from the sec. foll. name in all instances. [[176]] FLOWER, or FLOWERS, LAMROCK, Hartford 1686, by w. Lydia, d. of Joseph Smith of H. had Lydia, b. 1687; Lamrock, 1689; Elizabeth 1693; John, 1695; Mary, 1697; Francis, 1700; Ann, 1703; and Joseph, 1706; and d. 1716. Hinman, 133, gives ano. generat. in part, and uses a differ. spell. by one letter in the bapt. name; but I doubt that more than one letter must be erron. FLOYD, Hugh, Boston, s. of .John, by w. Elinor had Hannah, b. 5 Nov. 1686; Sarah, 28 Jan. 1689; Ebenezer, 21 Feb. 1691; and Elinor, 12 Feb. 1693. JOHN, Scituate 1640, merch. wh. was of Boston 1653, and next yr. fin. 5 sh. for receiv. Mrs. Pacey (Gov. Dudley's d.) into his ho. as inmate; had Nathaniel, b. 1658, as Deane says, but he strangely mistakes him for a mem. of the London Soc. for Prop. the Gosp. JOHN, Lynn, or Romney marsh, now Chelsea, where he owned much ld. in disting. for his serv. as capt. against the Ind. 1690, and d. 1701; by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 24 Feb. 1662; Hugh, 10 Sept. 1663; John, 20 Feb. 1665; Joseph, Mar. 1667; and Joanna, 3 Feb. 1669; perhaps rem. to Malden, and had Noah, Dec. 1670; and Daniel, 28 Dec. 1675; and in Boston had Mary, 14 Aug. 1679. JOHN, Malden, s. perhaps, of the preced. by w. Rachel had John, b. 2 Oct. 1687; and Rachel, 25 Dec. 1690; and d. 7 Jan. 1723. JOSEPH, Lynn 1635, rem. to Boston 1666, as Lewis says. JOSEPH, Malden, s. perhaps of John of the same, by w. Elizabeth had Joseph, b. 22 Oct. 1689; Nathaniel, 27 May 1691; Ruth, 25 July 1695; and Dorothy, 29 Oct. 1699. He d. 4 Jan. 1705. His wid. m. a Jenks. RICHARD, Boston 1642, by w. Lydia, had Lydia, b. 1643, and three other ch. d. bef. 1664, as one wid. Lydia F. m. 9 June of that yr. Joseph Gridley. His inv. taken so late as 8 Sept. 1662, shows only £26.5.6. See Geneal. Reg. XII. 50. Hutch. I. 164, supposes Richard F. to be the Treasr. of the Corp. and chart. mem. of the Soc. for Prop. the Gosp. London 1650. One must be bold to think any such case could lead that author into error, especially as his relat. Richard Hutchinson, the wealthy ironmong. was ano. of the sixteen corporat. Yet, on turning to Scobell's Acts of that Parliamant, we find the fam. name of the mem. of that corpo. was Lloyd, instead of Floyd; and we may be sure the Treasr. must have been a London merch. FOBES, CALEB, Norwich, s. of John, m. 30 June 1681, Sarah, d. of John Gager, had Sarah, b. 24 June 1684; Caleb; Mary; John; and 33 Elizabeth was the first deac. in the ch. of Preston, part of N. and d. 25 Aug. 1710.

The wid. m. 1662, John Briggs; the s. John d. says Winsor, at Sandwich, the same yr. with his f. and Joshua was k. at Rehoboth fight under Capt. Pierce, 1676. A descend. Rev. Perez, H. C. 1762, was disting. WILLIAM, Duxbury, s. of the preced. m. Elizabeth d. of Constant Southworth, rem. to Little Compton. Confusion of this name with Forbes has been common; it was also writ. Vobes. FOGG, DANIEL, Berwick, s. of Samuel, had, I think, a fam. but kn. not details. He d. 1755. DAVID, Salem, prob. s. of Ralph, by w. Susanna had Susanna, b. 18 Apr. 1676. JAMES, Gloucester 1649-51. || RALPH, Plymouth 1633, rem. to Salem, freem. 3 Sept. 1634, by w. Susanna had Ezekiel, bapt. 1 Apr. 1638; and David, 15 Mar. 1640; ar. co. 1644; was town treasr. 1637, and for some yrs. engaged in munic. affairs; but in 1652 his req. to keep an office of intellig. or exch. being refused, he soon went home, was a liveryman of London of the Skinners Co. and d. 1674. He had, also, John, a merch. of Barnstaple in Devon, but I kn. not whether b. in Eng. or here. SAMUEL, Hampton, m. 23 June 1659, Sarah d. of Richard Carrier, had Daniel, b. 10 June 1660; Seth, wh. was f. of Rev. Jeremiah, H. C. 1730, and d. 16 Apr. 1672.

JOHN, Watertown, had gr. of house lot of six acres, but rem. to Edgartown. He came from Norwich, Co. Norf. 1635, Coffin says, in the same ship with Rev. Hugh Peter, with s. Peter (b. as tradit. says, in 1618), and that his w. was Meribah Gibbs. She outliv. by three yrs. at least this h. wh. d. a. 1660. JOHN, Nantucket, s. of Peter, m. Mary, d. of Nathaniel Barnard.

Benjamin, wh. in his geneal. inq. was led to infer that the fam. was Flemish, and came to Eng. in the days of Elizabeth Some verses by him, occasion. by Philip's war, under the whimsic. title of Looking-Glass for the Times, [[178]] print. after ninety yrs. circulat. in MS. are sought for sometimes, less for poetical value, than bibliogr. curiosity. FOLLANSBEE, THOMAS, Portsmouth, rem. a. 1667 to Newbury, prob. bring. w. Sarah, and perhaps ch. Rebecca, and Thomas, had Francis, b. 22 Oct. 1677, and Hannah, 10 Apr. 1680.

The copy of early roster is comparatively too mod. to be relied on but for names of promin. men. ISAAC, Salem, s. of Pasco, m. 2 Dec. 1668, Abigail, d. of Thomas Jeggles, or Ingalls, for a descend.

William Blaxton was witn. he gave est. to w. and ch. but does not name them, and I presume they cont. at London. Our rec. shows that his s. was Samuel, and a. 1650, his d. Elizabeth m. William Sheldon of London; or, at least, the contract form. between the parties is in our books. * NATHANIEL, Watertown, brought from Eng. w. Elizabeth and ch.

His will of 21 Sept. preced. pro. 30 June foll. by s. Isaac, does not name the eldest two ch. so that we may infer that they were d. Abigail m. 15 Oct. 1670, George Early of Salem. PASCO, Salem, s. prob. of the preced. m. 2 Dec. 1668, Martha, d. of the first Miles Ward, had Malachi, b. 13 Sept. 1669; Martha, 14 Feb. 1671; and Pasco, 1 Sept. 1674. His w. d. and the three ch. also, as I judge; he went to Newfoundland, thence soon to New London, m. at Killingworth, 30 Nov. 1678, Margaret, only d. of Edward Stallion, had Isaac, and Stallion, wh. was adopt. by the gr.f.

It has been plausib. conject. that she m. Peter Browne. She in 1624, counted four in the div. of lands; but perhaps she went home with s. William, for in 1627, at the div. of cattle, only John and Martha are nam. Baylies, I. 262. But tho. a suggest. has been thrown out, that he went to Conn. it seems more likely that this first comer stood by the old col. had w. Hannah, and d. at Marshfield 1693.

Who was Barbara F. that came in the Susan and Ellen 1633, aged 16, is unkn. to me. An Elizabeth F. d. at Guilford 1673, perhaps d. of Thomas. WILLIAM, Marshfield, s. as reasonab. is conject. of the wid. wh. came in the Fortune 1621, b. a. 1604, perhaps went home with his mo. bef. the div.

William, Marshfield, s. of the preced. m. 4 Nov. 1658, Sarah, d. I suppose, of John Dingley, had John, b. 1659; Mar., 1662; and Josiah, 1664. He was out on serv. in the first day of Philip's hostil. 21 June 1675; and is said to have d. 1621, aged 88; and his wid. d. 1727, aged 78. His d. Mercy m. 27 May 1680, Samuel Thomas. His s. John, perhaps, rem. to Morristown, N. J. WILLIAM, Charlestown, by w. Mary had William, b. 12 Oct. 1666, d. young; and d. 1683; as is judg. by the time of the inv. 8 Feb. when the only s. was Stephen. FORDHAM, JOHN, Southampton, L. I. 1641, was perhaps a relat. of Rev. Robert, and some time inhab. of Hempstead d. 1647. JOHN, Southampton, L. I. s. prob. of Rev. Robert, m. Mary, d. of John Maltby of New Haven, d. 1683. JOSIAH, Brookhaven, L. I. s. of Rev. Robert, preach. first a. 1662, at Hempstead, d. 1696 by the Harv. Catal. but Mather had not marked him in 1698. He had Josiah, wh. after 1690, preach. a short time at Setauket, and was gr.gr.f. of B. F. Thompson, Esq. the diligent histor. of that region. ROBERT, Southampton, L. I. came, perhaps in 1640, perhaps earlier, in the sh. with Thomas Bittlestone; was a short time at Cambridge, and, when Lechford left us in Aug. 1641, he was in tempo. office at Sudbury; had w. Elizabeth and ch. Hannah, wh. m. Samuel Clark, one d. m. lieut. Edward Howell, both of Hempstead, where he preach. John, and Jonah, H. C. 1658, both above ment., Robert, and Joseph. He may have been more at H. than at S. his name being first in the Dutch Gov. patent for the town of Il. and he d. Sept. 1674. Descend. are not few in that quarter. FORMAN, or FURMAN, JOHN, and JOSIAH, Newtown, L. I. 1655. JOHN, Newbury, Coffin says, had Abigail, b. 10 Nov. 1676; and John, 5 Oct. 1678. SAMUEL, prob. s. of on, of the preced. had visit. L. L but was order. to go home in June 1675, because a Quaker, as in Riker's Ann. of Newtown, 94, is well told; but that author, in his note 399, on the deriv. of the fam. fell into the error of making John, the first comer, freem. of Mass. 1631. Of this name there was no freem. in Mass. and the nearest approach to it is that of Giles Firmin 1634, or of his s. Giles 1639; but I venture to doubt that neither was progenit. of this respectab. race. Samuel m. Mary, d. of Samuel Wilbore of Portsmouth, R. I. FORREST, ARCHIBALD, at Hatfield, perhaps transient. a soldier in Philip's war 1676. FORRETT, JAMES, agent of William, Earl of Stirling, for his patent of L. I. was at Boston 1641. See Winthrop II. 5.

ABRAHAM, Andover, s. prob. of the preced. m. 13 July 1681, Esther Foster, but may have liv. at Ipswich, and by ano. w.

Abigail, the wid. of one Abraham at I. d. 8 Oct. 1732. ANDREW, Andover, freem. 1669, had Andrew, d. 7 May 1665, at gr. age, but not, we may be sure, by near a score of yrs. so old as 106 yrs. in the rec. and Hist. of that town, p. 32, report.

Court) from Co. Kent, says Deane; but I feel doubt of this, for his mo. was sis. of Timothy Hatherly, wh. he thinks was of Devon. Yet it may be that the sis. of Hatherly was mo. of his w. not of hims. She afterwards, not, as Deane thinks, first, m. Hanford, and was mo. of Rev. Thomas, came with two ds. in 1635, and here, not, as D. supposes, in Eng. m. Richard Sealis. Her s. was a lawyer, says D. freem. 1636, certain. a young man of good repute, for he was one of the found. of the ch. at S. 8 Jan. 1635, rep. 1639 and 40, tho. not elevat. as the histor. made out to be an Assist. of the Col. 1637; m. 8 Apr. 1635, Lettice Hanford, had Timothy, bapt. 7 Mar. 1636, bur. 5 Dec. 1637; Timothy, again, 22 Apr. 1638; d. soon; Timothy, again, b. 1640, and Elizabeth posthum. 1644, not, as Deane gives, 1645.

Of the accuracy of this part of the copy a gen. doubt being felt, by kindness of the official keeper of that rec. at Westminster, a facsimile was obt. for a few lines, and thus its exactness proved. That ano. numeral, perhaps on the left, perhaps on the right, of the fig. 6, denoting the yrs. of Rachel Bigg, was omit. by the clk. in 1635, must be evid. to all, for in her will, 17 Nov. 1646, she calls. hers. aged, and names her neph.

JOHN, Charlestown, s. of William, perhaps was tak. by the Barbary corsair, with his f. aft. ret. home liv. to 14 June 1723. JOHN, Marshfield, s. of Thomas of Weymouth, m.

REGINALD, or RENOLD, Ipswich, came, it is said, in 1638, had gr. of ld. 6 Apr. 1641, and brot. Abraham, Reginald, William, Isaac, and Jacob, beside two ds. of wh. Mary is report. without probabil. to have first m. a Wood, and next, when she must have been a very young wid. Francis Peabody. As to him, tradit. was rather wild, for tho. it seems prob. that all the ch. nam. in Geneal. Reg. I. 343, as there told, were b. in Eng. yet it does not give the d. Sarah, w. of William Story, and must be wrong a. Mary, w. of Peabody, as hav. first m. Wood. It appears, also, that he had sec. w. Judith, wh. d. Oct. 1664, hav. brot. him Judith, 20 Jan. 1660; Mary, 18 June 1662; and John, 15 July 1664. Very remarkab. was the residue of his exper. and the relat. of it long distrust. by me, that he m. next, Sept. 1665, Sarah Martin, and had Ruth, b. 19 Dec. 1671, d. next mo.; Ellen, 14 June 1673; Hannah, 5 Oct. 1675; and Nathaniel, 19 Sept. 1678. Now this unusual blessing of fruit in old age, when the last ch. came fifty-six yrs. after the first, I doubted, might have arisen from mistake, and that both [[190]] the last ws. and their offspring should really belong to his s. Reginald, wh. might well have had Judith to w. bef. he took Elizabeth Dane, and after d. of the latter have m. Sarah Martin, inasmuch as sen. and jr. are changeable characters, and he wh. was jr. on the d. of his f. would be call. sen. But this explanat. is not receivab. bec. the first Reginald d. 1681, as we infer from the date of inv. 30 May in this yr. and the Prob. rec. of his will of 30 Apr. bef proving that he left w. Sarah, and ch. Abraham, Renold, Sarah, w. of William Story, Isaac, Jacob, William, and Mary, w. of Francis Peabody. REGINALD, wh. good name is pervert. to Ringdell, in Hist. Coll. of Essex Inst.

He may be the same as the last preced. THOMAS, Roxbury, m. 15 Oct. 1662, Sarah, d. of Robert Parker, had Thomas, b. 1 Aug. 1663, d. in few days; Thomas, again; Sarah, 3 June 1667; Hannah, 23 July 1669; and Jonathan, 21 Sept. 1671; freem. 1666. THOMAS, New London, call. in the rec. s. of John Forster of Kingsware, m. 27 Mar. 1666, Susanna, d. of Ralph Parker, had Susanna, b. 1667; Thomas, 26 Feb. 1669; Jonathan, 17 Aug. 1673; Mary, 14 June 1675; Edward, 1677, d. soon; Samuel, 1678; Rebecca, 1681; and Ebenezer, 1683; was a master marin. trad. to Barbados and Boston, d. 1685. THOMAS, Cambridge, d. 16 Sept. 1679 (as town rec. says, but the gr.stone, 28 Oct.), [[191]] aged 39. Possib. this may be the freem. from Roxbury. THOMAS, Billerica, one of the early Bapt. was serv. d. 20 Apr. 1682, says Farmer; and he thot. he might be the Braintree man. TIMOTHY, Dorchester, s. of Edward, sold part of his paternal est. at Scituate, m. 13 Oct. 1663, Ruth, d. of Thomas Tileston, wid. of Richard Denton, by wh. (wh. d. 3 Dec. 1677), he had Ruth, b. 4 Aug. 1664; Elizabeth 8 Sept. 1667, d. soon; Naomi, 11 Feb. 1669; Hatherly, 22 Sept. 1671; Rebecca, 1675; he m. 9 Mar. 1681, sec. w.

Many of the name at D. are of his descend. but Hatherly went to Scituate, there m. and his descend. still enjoy the est. that was his gr.f.'s. His f. made his will the day bef. his d. leav. w. Relief extrix. wh. m. Henry Leadbetter. WILLIAM, Ipswich, prob. s. of Reginald, perhaps came bef. his f. in the Hercules 1634, for he had gr. of land there 1635, says Felt; was disarmed Nov. 1637, as a follower of Wheelwright, and supporter of Mrs. Hutchinson, yet nam. with prefix of respect; and was in Sept. foll. "inform. that we conceive him not fit to life with us; therefore he was admonished to depart bef. the Gen. Court in Mar. next." Yet he may have, like not a few of his associate misbeliev. made his peace or been too much respected for his est. and thot. less dangerous soon after, and perhaps was of Rowley 1661, freem. 1677. WILLIAM, Newport 1639, with prefix of respect. WILLIAM, Salem 1638, sold his est. there 1641, and may possib. be either of the preced. but I think it more likely, rem. to Saco, for his br.-in-law Christopher Hobbs was by Court appoint. to admin. there his est. WILLIAM, Boston 1644, had w. Susanna, rem. I think in a short time to Charlestown, where he was adm. of the ch. Aug. 1652, m. sec. w. Ann, d. of William Brackenbury, had beside the Isaac, H.

Being an enterpris. merch. he was taken, with one of his s. by a Barbary corsair on the coast of Spain. From that captiv. his restor. is attribut. in the Magn.

Benjamin, of wh. very little is heard, Joseph, bef. ment. and Margaret; was freem. 3 Sept. 1634. He d. 24 June 1678, aged 87, or more prob. 80, as by one report he was 73 in 1671. His d. Margaret was wid; of Christopher Osgood of Ipswich in 1650, wh. was her fellow passeng. and he had beside, Thomas, b. 1636; and Philip, a. 1646, wh. prob. d. young; by w. Martha. But he m. 27 Feb. 1660, Diary, wid. I presume, of George Norton. PHILIP, Ipswich, perhaps s. of Joseph, as Mr. Felt assures me, that, in 1668, the first Philip gave prop. to Philip his gr.s. and the youth was then of 18 yrs. He m. 20 Jan. 1673, Elizabeth Herlick, prob. d. of Zechary of Beverly, had Philip, b. 27 Nov. 1675, d. 1 June 1676; Elizabeth 11 Feb. 1678; Martha, 15 May 1681, d. young; Joseph, 1683; John, 13 Jan. 1685; Benjamin, 19 Apr. 1687; Mary, 1688; Martha, again, 6 Apr. 1690; and Philip, again, 1691. He d. Dec. 1714, and his wid. d. 6 May 1727. SAMUEL, Salisbury 1665, perhaps was f. of Samuel of the same.

He made his will 1727, but it was not brot. to pro. bef. [[195]] 1739. SAMUEL, Salisbury, m. 5 Dec. 1684, Hannah Worthen, eldest ch. of Ezekiel, had Samuel, b. 23 Oct. 1685; Hannah, 30 Apr. 1687; Susanna, 10 Mar. 1689; Jacob, 10 Dec. 1690; Mary, 10 July 1692; and Sarah, 5 Mar. 1694; was freem. 1690.

WILLIAM, Milford 1639, one of the seven pillars at the found. of the ch. 22 Aug. in that yr. after 1647 was freq. rep. lieut. and at last an Assist. of the col. d. 25 Jan. 1661, leav. only William, and John.

Reg. IX. 359;--besides wh. were Hannah, Sarah, Mary, not on any rec. Jonathan, b. 8 Feb. 1651; Abigail, 1660; and Mercy, 1669. The mo. of these ten ch. was a d. prob. of Edmund Tapp, wh. had been assoc. with his f. as one of the pillars at found. of the ch. and whose wid. in her will of 1673, names him as her s.-in-law, and the ds. that are not found on rec. as her cousins. He took sec. w. 1670, wid. Elizabeth Baldwin, and rem. to Milford, there d. 1683, at least the inv. of a good est. bears date 29 Mar. of that yr. Many of these particulars are obt. from his will of Oct. 1682. His d. Hannah m. 21 Nov. 1661, Daniel Buckingham of Milford; Sarah m. 19 July 1665, the sec. John Smith of the same; Deborah m. 10 May 1688, as Cothren instr. us, Jesse Lambert; and Mercy, it is said, m. John Bills of Lebanon. WILLIAM Milford, s. of the preced. d. 23 Feb. 1729. Twenty-two of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at N. E. Coll. of wh. none was of Harv. FOWNELL, JOE, Charlestown, miller, was of Cambridge ch. with w. Mary until 1668, tho. he had above ten yrs. liv. at Charlestown, but was freem. 1645, had John, perhaps b. in Eng. wh. d. 1 Apr. 1654, in 18th yr. and, prob. Sarah, wh. m. 13 Nov. 1656, Henry Kimball, and d. 10 Aug. foll. and he d. 19 Mar. 1673, aged 65, leav. I presume no ch. for his will, made near ten yrs. bef. gave all to w. Mary, wh. was extrix.

GEORGE, the celebr. head of the sect of Friends, s. of Christopher, b. at Drayton in the Clay, Co. Leicester, July 1624, came in 1672 from the S. part of [[196]] our country, wh. he visit. the preced. yr. had much earlier an eager controv. With Roger Williams, but went home next yr. and d. 13 Jan. 1691. ISAAC, Medford, by w.

JABEZ, Woburn, S. of Thomas of Cambridge, freem. 1677, ord. b Sept. 1679, collea. with Rev. Thomas Carter, d. of smallpox, 28 Feb. 1703, aged 56; had John, b. 10 May 1678; Thomas, 16 July 1680, d. in 4 days; Thomas, again, 13 Nov. 1681; Jabez, 2 Dec. 1684; Judith, 19 June 1690, wh. d. within a yr. all, I suppose, by w. Judith Reyner. d. of John the sec. wh. m. Col. Jonathan Tyng, and d. 5 June 1756, in 99th yr. His s. John, H. C. 1698, wh. was his success. ord. 4 Oct. 1703, and d. 12 Dec. 1756, aged 76, was f. of Hon. Jabez, H. C. 1727. JOHN, wh. came in the Abigail, 1635, aged 35, with Richard, 15, perhaps his br. may have been br. of Thomas, and sett. at Concord, but nothing is kn. of either John or Richard. JOHN, New London, br. of Eliphalet, m. 2 June 1678, Sarah, d. of Greenfield Larrabee, had John, b. 1680; Sarah, 1681; Thomas, 1682; he had also Jonathan, Benjamin, and Hannah, but possib. by sec. w. Hannah, wh. was d. of Robert Isbell, and wid. of Thomas Stedman; he had, for third Mary, d. of Daniel Lester, jr. wh. was , it is said, gr.d. of his own sis. Mary, and 50 yrs. younger than hims. He d. Apr. 1730. NICHOLAS, Marblehead 1674, by w. Elizabeth had Nicholas, Elizabeth and William; and d. 1677. RICHARD, Wethersfield, m. Beriah, d. of the first Richard Smith of the same, was inhab. of the E. side of the riv. now Glastonbury. SAMUEL, New London, br of John of the same, m. 30 Mar. 1676, Mary, by wh. he had two ds. and Samuel, b. 24 Apr. 1681; he had sec. w. Joanna; a third, Bathshua, wh. was wid. of Richard Smith, d. of James Rogers; and a fourth w.Esther; and by one, or other of these had Isaac, Benjamin, and Samuel, again, while the first Samuel was liv. and f. of a fam. He d. 4 Sept. 1727, in 77th yr. THOMAS, Concord, freem. prob. of Mar. 1638, by w. Rebecca, wh. d. 11 May 1647, had Mary, b. 18 Sept. 1642, d. next mo.; Elizabeth b. the same day; Eliphalet, bef. ment., and he m. 13 Dec. 1647, Hannah Brooks, had Hannah, b. 25 Sept. 1648; Thomas, 26 Feb. 1650; Samuel, bef. ment.; Mary; John, bef. ment.; Isaac, 17 Oct. 1657; and d. 14 Apr. 1658. Yet his will of 25 Jan. preced. in wh. w. Hannah is made extrix. names only eldest s. Eliphalet, and d. Elizabeth tho. it speaks of others, and uncle Thomas Brooks, wh. ret. the inv. 23 Apr. of same yr. Mary, wh. went to New London with brs. Samuel, and John, m. Daniel Lester, jr. THOMAS, Cambridge, freem. perhaps, of 1644, selectman 1658, and often after, for sec. w. m. Ellen, wid. of Percival Green, wh. d. 27 May 1682, as Harris gives the inscript. aged 82, and took ano. w. 21 Apr. foll. Elizabeth [[197]] wid. of Charles Chadwick, wh. 22 Feb. 1685, left him again a widower, and he took, 16 Dec. foll. ano. w. Rebecca Wythe, wid. of Nicholas, and he d. 25 Apr. 1693, aged 85. Prob. he had no ch. exc. Jabez, b. 1647, H. C. 1665, to bear up the uncert. tradit. honor, ascribed to him, of descent from the autb. of the Book of Martyrs. For these two Thomases, I have varied from Farmer in the dates, respectively, of freem.'s oath. The reason may be very slight, but the Concord man seems to have been the elder of the two; and tho. of the four names of freem., above and below those of these two Foxes, three are of Concord, yet two of them heard of not indeed bef. 1639, while Hayward, of those adm. early in 1638, was of Concord 1630, and, of course, Hutchins of Cambridge might seem to balance him; still the preponderance is for Concord. Certainly the Smeedly two were here some yrs. bef. being adm. freem. Bond boldly conject. p. 765, that he was the same as Thomas of Concord, in wh. I dare not follow his lead. He thereby makes the wid. of Percival Greene to be third w. and the wid. of Chadwick fourth w. of Thomas Fox. Seven of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and equal number at Yale, Brown, and Dart. coll. FOXALL, JOHN, Boston, had Ruth, bapt. 11 Nov. 1632, says the ch. rec. I ought to obs. that this may be Coggeshall. or Coxshall, for that gent. arr. at Boston in the Lion, only 8 wks. bef. Greater errors are occasio. found in rec. Still it may be the name of John Foxwell, tho. not likely. FOXCRAFT, or FOXCROFT, || FRANCIS, Boston, said to be s. of Daniel, wh. was mayor of Leeds in Co. York, in 1665, ar. co. 1679, was a col. imprison. in Apr. 1689, as adher. of Gov. Andros, yet seems not to have suffer. permanent unpopular. by w. Elizabeth d. of Gov. Danforth, m. 3 Oct. 1682, wh. d. 4 July 1721, had Francis, b. 26 Jan. 1695, H. C. 1712; and Thomas, 26 Feb. 1697, H. C. 1714; d. at Cambridge 31 Dec. 1727. FRANCIS, Cambridge, S. of the preced. m. 5 Nov. 1722, Mehitable Coney, d. perhaps of John, had Mehitable, b. 19 Aug. 1723; Francis, 11 Aug. 1725, d. at 7 yrs.; Daniel, 11 Apr. 1726, H.

GEORGE, Boston, nam. as propr. in the old Book of Poss'sions bef. deeds were com. was possib. never an inhab. but only a London merch. of the comp. of undertakers for us, wh. no more is kn. but that his ho. lot was next to Edward Bendall's the dock. THOMAS, Boston, br. of Francis the sec. min. of first ch. [[198]] ord. 20 Nov. 1717, m. 1718, Ann Coney, d. of John, had Samuel, b. 1735, H. C. 1754, min. of New Gloucester, d. 16 or 18 June 1769. Of this name eight had been gr. at Harv. 1834. FOXERY, WILLIAM, Boston 1652, adm. an inhab. and the name in text and marg. of the rec. is so plain that it is wonder. who Drake, in Hist. of Boston, 334, gave it Foxley; particular. as it was right in Farmer.

He taught a sch. there Jan. to Apr. 1699, and may be the same as the preced. tho. prob. is against it BENJAMIN, Boston, fifteenth ch. and youngest s. of Josiah of the same, too famous to need any other memo. than that furnished by his autobiog. and the great work of Sparks. He m. 1 Sept. 1730, at Philadelphia, [[200]] Deborah Reed, wh. d. 19 Dec. 1774, had only two ch. by her; Francis Folger, b. 20 June 1732, d. at 4 yrs. and Sarah, 11 Sept. 1743, whose descend. are quite num.

The first w. d. and he m. not very long after, we judge, Abiah, d. of Peter Folger, wh. d. 1752, in 85th yr. had John, bapt. 7 Dec. 1690; Peter, b. 22, bapt. 27 Nov. 1692; Mar., 26 Sept. 1694; James, 4 Feb. 1697; Sarah, 9 July 1699; Ebenezer, 20 Sept. 1701, d. at 2 yrs.; Thomas, 7 Dec. 1703; Benjamin, 6 Jan. 1706, the celebr. philosoph. and statesman, bapt. the same day, as his f. liv. very near to O.

Benjamin, a silk dyer, and maker of verses, from London, came many yrs. later, and is beyond the scope of this work. Nor does it seem necessary to enlarge on the sev. branches of the orig. stock, for it. is thought the fam. name is exhausted. Much less can I be expected to speak of the illustrious son of Boston, whose male descend. the royal Gov. of New Jersey, tho. illegit. after many yrs. of separation in politic. regards, was reconcil. to his f. Of him we may express our regret, that the yr. of b. of his son is unkn. tho. certain. it might have been hoped, bef. the m. of his f. also that the name of his mo. and the reason why the young philosoph. did. not m. her (unless bec. he had one w. already), are equal. uncert. But the fam. geneal. in G. Reg. VIII. 374, while it supplies no mo. for the Gov. says he was b. a. 1731; and that the blood of the great patron of common sense is perpet. only through female line. WILLIAM, Ipswich 1634, came in the Mary and John that yr. with many others, wh. rem. to Newbury 1635, m. Alice, d. of Robert Andrews, was a blacksmith, rem. to Boston, there is rec. b. of his d.

STEPHEN, Dorchester 1630, prob. came in the Mary and John, rem. soon to Weymouth, freem. 14 May 1634, rep. 1638, had one w. Mary, wh. d. 6 Apr. 1655; and a s. wh. d. 31 Jan. 1657; but he was f. of Jacob, and Stephen, made his will 17 Mar. 1679, pro. 29 July foll. in wh. he ment. only sis.

THOMAS, Boston 1631, had, I think, by w. Alice, Mary, I [[208]] bapt. 23 Sept. 1632, wh. d. soon, and Mary, again, 2 Mar. 1634, freem. 6 Nov. 1632, was dism. from Boston ch. 27 Jan. 1639 to that of Ipswich, whither he had gone 1634, prob. d. 1639. Perhaps he came in the Lion with John Winthrop, the Gov.'s.; for his name is on the list of the ch. bef. the use of dates betw. those of young W. and his w. Martha. THOMAS, Ipswich 1638, then call. jr. may have been of ar. co. that yr. and freem. 1674. THOMAS, Charlestown 1638, rem. to Guilford 1650, or earlier, had many ch. of wh. I suppose, one was Mary (wh. m. 14 Sept. 1665, John Evarts, and d. in few yrs.), but only Ebenezer and John liv. to mid. age. THOMAS, Braintree, s. of John first of the same, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 16 Dec. 1696; Thomas, 5 Aug. 1698; Moses, 16 Feb. 1700; Jonathan, 20 June 1702; Rachel, 26 Mar. 1704; Samuel, Sept. 1706; Abijah, 25 May 1709; Ebenezer, 9 Sept. 1711; Sarah, 16 Feb. 1714; and Seth, 25 Oct. 1716.

WILLIAM, Cambridge, br. of John of the same, came, with Harlakenden, in the Defence, 1635, aged 30, w. Elizabeth 30, or 32 (both stated in the rec. of London custom-ho.), and Francis, 10, wh. may have been s. br. or neph. Elizabeth 6; Mary, 2 1/2; and John, 5 mos. this last was bapt. at Cambridge, after arr. by Hooker, a fellow passenger, whose name is not found in the list, as the order of the Privy Council would have stopped him. He is ent. no doubt for purpose of deception, as serv. to Harlakenden, and prob. was of Co. Essex. At Cambridge he had Sarah, b. Mar. 1638; Jacob, 16 Jan. 1640, bef. ment.; Hannah, 2 Feb. 1642, d. 20 June foll. but ano. Hannah foll. and Samuel, 3 Dec. 1645, d. July foll.; but ano.

His d. Elizabeth m. says Mitchell's Reg. an Eliot of Dedham; the first Sarah m. 11 Dec. 1657, John Trull; and Hannah the sec. m. John Brackett; the sec. Mary m. Nathaniel Dunkler; the sec. Sarah m. Joseph Crosby; and the third Hannah m. 5 Oct. 1693, John Child. Evid. of his engagem. in the cause of and. instruct. is found in a tract, "Strength out of Weakness," pub. at London 1652, reprint. in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. IV. 193.

Five of this name had been gr. at Harv. two at Yale, three at Dart. ana six at other N. E. coll. in 1834. FRIARD, ELISHA, of New Hampsh. 1689. Perhaps it was Fryer. FRIBBENS, WILLIAM, giv. to me, as copied from a list of passengers, in the Mary and John, Robert Swyers (perhaps Sayers), master, to pass for N. E. wh. took the o. of alleg. and supremacy, 26 Mar. 1634, is by me (as this is almost an impossib. name and the two first letters might easi. in ancient chirogr. be mistak. for H.) thought to mean our William Hibbens. FRIEND, FRANCIS, one of the flower of Essex, k. 18 Sept. 1675, at Bloody brook under Capt. Lothrop. JAMES, Wenham, perhaps s. of John, freem. 1690. JOHN, Salem 1637, had first been at Saybrook with young John Winthrop was a carpenter, had, says Felt, a gr. of ld. 1637 there, but in Mar. 1640 was inhab. allow. of Boston, and ar. co. d. 1656, yet perhaps was again at Salem. His will of 4 Jan. 1656 names ch. Samuel, James, Bethia, and Elizabeth Gardiner names him, in Hist. of the Pequot war, 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 159; and, in spite of the variety of places, I judge him to be the same wh. sold a lot to George Willis at Hartford. RICHARD, Salem, m. 19 Apr. 1677, Ann Curtis, had Mary, b. 28 Apr. 1678. FRIESE, JAMES, Salisbury, by w. Elizabeth had James, b. 16 Mar. 1667. Perhaps he was after of Newbury, and had John, wh. is ment. by Coffin. FRINK, JOHN, Stonington 1666, by w. Grace, wh. d. 1717, had Deborah; Samuel, b. 14 Feb. 1669; John, 18 May 1671; Thomas, 25 May 1674; and d. 1718. Deborah m. Gershom Lambert. JOHN, Ipswich 1673, in his will, pro. Sept. 1675, names w.

John, aged 18; Edward, 16; Rebecca, 14; Hannah, 12; Joseph, 6; Nathaniel, 4; and Lydia, 1. Prob. he was br. of Edward, and descend. of both are kn. FRISH, JOHN, print. in Gen. Reg. IX. 80, as one of the Plymouth men under John Howland, Apr. 1634, when two men were k. is yet in my opin. design. to mean IRISH, wh. see. JOHN, a propr. of Bridgewater 1645. In Wonderwork. Provid. Johnson names thus a min. coming in 1637, but it must be error of the press, perhaps for Fisk. FRISSELL, or FRIZELL, JAMES, Roxbury, by w. Sarah had Sarah, bapt. 2 Apr. 1665; Benjamin, 5 May 1667, d. 9 Nov. 1683; Hannah, 16 Dec. 1669; Ebenezer, 12 Mar. 1671; and Samuel, 8 June 1673; [[210]] freem. 1690. Beside these ch. of wh. not one appears on the town rec. from that we find Mary, b. 16 May 1656; and James, 1 Oct. 1658. His w. d. 11 Feb. 1713; and he d. 6 Feb. 1717, aged 90. JAMIES, Roxbury, s. of the preced. perhaps, by w. Mary had John, b. 14 Feb. 1706; and Isaac, 5 Nov. 1708. JOHN, Braintree, from Scotland, d. 19 Jan. 1664. A John is found at Falmouth 1689, and John, H. C. 1724. SAMUEL, Roxbury, s. of first James, by w.

Possib. he was one of the prison. taken by Cromwell at Worcester, and sent here for sale, 1651, in the John and Sarah, arr. at Boston, in May 1652; yet I think very few of that freight of misery liv. so long. FROGLIE, TIMOTHY, a soldier in Capt. Turner's comp. 1676 from the E. at Springfield.

A differ. list of ch. in part, with variety in dates as well as names, may be seen in Gen. Reg. X. 45; and a critic. examinat. may lead to ascertain, whether a later be worthier than an elder tradit. He was deac. Col. and Judge of Pro. DANIEL, Fairfield, elder br. of Abraham, liv. in 1670, by w. Elizabeth had Rebecca, b. 1640, wh. m. 5 Jan. 1664, Simeon Booth; Daniel, wh. d. a. 1707; Joseph, wh.

He left w. with an unspeakable name, like Reana (wh. had been wid. of Robert Daniels, so his third w.) writ. in his will of 16 Apr. preced. and codic. of next day, names all his eight ch. gives something to the new coll. then building, and to George Alcock, then a student.

He had been in Oct. 1632, very severely sentenced to fines, whip. brand. and banishm. on penalty of death for return. yet seems to have obtain. great mitigat. so that we may be tolera. confid. as he did come again within the jurisdict. that he was less guilty. He had good est. and provid. for ch. in will of 1660, in wh. w. is not nam. so that we may infer, she was then d. but this win was set aside; and he d. 20 July 1663.

Hubbard, in Ind. Wars, gives acco. of his eldest s. James. THOMAS, Salem, had gr. of Id. 1639, rem. prob. to Gloucester, there was selectman 1642; and Elizabeth perhaps his wid. or a. d. there 9 Sept. 1685. Margaret, perhaps his sis. was first w. of Thomas Gardner. FUGILL, THOMAS, New Haven 1639, is nam. by Rev. Thomas Shepard in his autobiog. as one of the serv. of Sir Richard Darley of Buttercrambe, had bapt.

See Young's Chron. of Mass. 525. One John F. prob. s. of Thomas, was at New Haven a. 1669, as by testim. of Capt.

Matthew, on the other side, wh. was elder, d. early next yr. as did his w. but his s. Samuel outliv. the hardships. EDWARD, Boston 1630, whose s. John, says Lewis, sett. at Lynn. But I believe we kn. no more, than that the name has 'much prevail. there. Edward was employ. in 1643, to bring, with others, the cattle of the Gortonists, taken near Providence, under the absurd pretence of being spoil of war. No doubt he was of the true, or popular faith, or he would not thus have been trusted; and this may, perhaps, render it less prob. that he was the same Edward subject. in 1639 to cens. by the Gen. Ct. for distemper. with wine. EDWARD, Lynn, freem. 1691, was, perhaps, s. of Robert of the same. GILES, Hampton, 1640, d. 2 Apr. 1673. JACOB, Salem vill. now Danvers, freem. 1690.

One John, aged 15, came 1635, in the Abigail, and he may be the man of Lynn, or of Cambridge. JOHN, Barnstable, s. of Matthew, a physician, by first w. had Lydia, b. 1675; and by sec. w.

JOSHUA, Newton, br. of the preced. freem. 1680, m. 7 June 1679, Elizabeth d. of John Ward, had only ds. Elizabeth b. 22 Feb. 1680; Hannah, 8 July 1682; Experience, 5 Nov. 1685; and Mercy, 11 Mar. 1689. His w. d. 6 Sept. 1691. By 2d w. be had Abigail, a. 1697; Sarah; and Ruth; d. 1752.

MATTHEW, Plymouth, a. 1640, s. of Edward the first, b. in Eng. rem. to Barnstable 1652, a physician, appoint. surg. of the force of the col. 1673, a capt. 1675, as Thatcher says, and d. 1678. By w.

Sarah, had Sarah, 21 Sept. 1647; John, 26 Nov. 1649; Patience, 22 Feb. 1652; and Mary, [[218]] 1 Mar. 1654. His w. Sarah d.1680, and he d. 14 Dec. 1688. ROBERT, Salem 1639, rem. to Rehoboth, there was freem. 1658, wh. he had visited perhaps fifteen yrs. bef. and may there have had one or more ch. of wh. we kn. only, that he calls Jonathan his eldest s. in a deed of 28 May 1696 for ld. in R. but had, also, Benjamin, old eno. to take deed of 1 Dec. 1679 for ho. and six acres at R. while he styles hims. in both, of Salem, bricklayer. Prob. he had been driv. in Philip's war from enjoym. of his est. and would encourage his s. to ascertain if it might be profit. in peace. By the rec. at R. his n. Sarah was bur. 14 Oct. 1676; and w. Margaret, wh. may not have been mo. of any ch. d. 30 Jan. 1700; and he d. 10 May 1706. Abigail, perhaps his d. m. at R. 16 Oct. 1679, Thomas Cushman. ROBERT, Lynn, freem. 1680, may be the same as preced. but not prob. SAMUEL, Plymouth 1620, one of the most valu. pilgrims of the Mayflower, the first physician that came to sett. in our country. He had been a deac. at least 8 yrs. at Leyden, tho. his w. Bridget, wh. came in the Ann 1623, with a ch. that, I think, liv. not long, may have been m. but short time bef. he left Holland. He brot. serv. William Butten, a youth, wh. d. bef. reach. the coast; had Samuel, and Mercy, b. here, both after 22 May 1627, and both liv. 1650; and d. 1633, betw. 30 July, the date of his will, and end of Oct. foll. when it was pro. His w. Bridget liv. until 1664. She was his third w. The first was Elsie Glascock, m. in Eng. and perhaps d. bef. the sad parting from his native ld. and, next, he m. at Leyden, 30 Apr. 1613, Agnes Carpenter, from Wrentham, Co. Suff k. sis. of Alice, the sec. w. of Gov. Bradford. She liv. not long; and he m. 27 May 1617, ano. maiden, Bridget Lee, her mo. and br. Samuel assist. at the solemnity. In the docum. to verify this m. F. is call. silkmaker of London. SAMUEL, Plymouth, neph. of the preced. made excor. of his will, was s. of the first Edward, and by him brot. in the Mayflower 1620; after d. of his parents, liv. with the uncle, and at the div. of lds. 1624, was count. I presume, out of respectto f. and mo. for three persons; freem. of the col. 1634, rem. to Scituate, thence to Barnstable, at Scituate hav. m. 8 Apr. 1635, Jane, d. of Rev. John Lothrop, had Hannah, wh. m. 1 Jan. 1659, Nicholas Bonham; Samuel, wh. was bapt. at S. 11 Feb. 1638, and may be the one wh. d. at Rehoboth 15 Aug 1676; Sarah, tho. b. at S. bapt. at B. 1 Aug,. 1641, d. young; and b at B. were Mary, 16 June 1644, wh. m. Joseph Williams, 18 Nov. 1674; Thomas, 18 May 1651; Sarah, again, 14 Dec. 1654, wh. m. a Crow; and John; beside one, 8 Feb. 1658, wh. d. at a fortnight; and he d. 31 Oct. 1683; one of the latest Mayflowers. SAMUEL, Plymouth, s. of the first Samuel, was a preach. but seems to have been slow to rem. prob. giving his time to pious care of his mo. refus. invit. to Rehoboth after d. of Newman, but preach. at Middleborough sixteen yrs. and at last was ord. there when the first ch. wars gather. 26 Dec. 1694, and d. 17 Aug. foll. in 71st yr. if his gr.stone be correct. Of this the doubt is almost invinc. for it would carry his b. to 1623 or 4, at least, whereas in the div. of cattle, May 1627, his f. head of the eighth lot, counts only for hims. w. and cous. or neph. bef. ment. Still stranger, however, to our modern notions, seems the nomin. of him as excor. of will, when he could not be [[219]] 8, and prob. was only 5 yrs. old. He had w. Elizabeth but was not m. bef. 1650, ch. nam. in the will, pro. 1 Oct. 1695, Mercy, w. of Daniel Cole, perhaps his sec.; Samuel, b. 1659; Experience, w. of James Wood; John; Elizabeth w. of Samuel Eaton; Hannah, w. of Eleazer Lewis, and Isaac, wh. was under age, as may have been the last d. By Lewis, in Hist. of Lynn, ed. 2, p. 111, this Samuel is call. br. of John, s. of Edward, and he speaks of his arr. in Boston 1630, so as to lead to confusion, if not starting from it. Deane, in Hist. of Scituate, seems almost as confus. as his br. Hist. of Lynn. The name of his w. is giv. in the ch. Hist. of M. as Brewster, and perhaps she was gr.d. of the noble William; she d. at Plymouth 4 Nov. 1713. Confusion, indeed, is often unavoida. With all the aid deriv. from books, and the scrupulous dilig. of Otis, I am uncert. whether SAMUEL, Barnstable, s. of the first Samuel of the same, wh. m. Ann, d. of his uncle Matthew and had Matthew, Barnabas, Joseph, Benjamin, Desire, and Sarah, were the same man as SAMUEL, Rehoboth, wh. m. 17 Apr. 1673, Mary Ide, perhaps d. of Nicholas. SAMUEL, Barnstable, s. of Capt. Matthew, by w. Mary had Thomas, Jabez, Timothy, Matthias, wh. d. unm. Abigail, Ann, and Samuel, posthum. b. 1676. THOMAS, Woburn, m. 13 June 1643, Elizabeth Tidd, had Thomas, b. 22 or 30 Apr. 1644; Elizabeth 12 Sept. 1645; Ruth, 17 May 1648; Deborah, 12 May 1650; John, 1 Mar. 1653; Jacob, 14 May 1655; Joseph, 8 Aug. 1658; Benjamin, 15 Apr. 1660; and Samuel, 9 3 May 1662. Prob. he was of Salem 1670, that pt. now Middleton, and d. June 1698 aged 80, and m. 25 Aug. 1684, Sarah, wid. of John Wyman, d. of Miles Nutt. THOMAS, Dedham 1643, by w.

THOMAS, Dedham, prob. s. of Thomas of the same, freem. 1690. THOMAS, perhaps a of Thomas of Woburn, m. 25 Aug. 1684, Sarah Wyman, may hav. liv. at Danvers, and been freem. 1690. WILLIAM, Ipswich 1635, came that yr. in the Abigail, aged 25, with John, perhaps his br. aged 15, may have had w. Frances, rem. 1639 to Hampton, rep. 1661 and 7, d. 26 May 1693. WILLIAM, Concord, appoint. gunsmith May 1637, to accomp. the troops against the Pequots; was a miller there 1639; had Hannah, b. 8 Aug. 1641; and his w. Elizabeth [[220]] d. 24 July foll.

FURBER, WILLIAM, Dover 1643, b. a. 1614, came in the Angel Gabriel from Bristol, wreck. at Pemaquid in the great storm of Aug. 1635, was one of the witnesses to the true deed of the Ind. 1638 to Wheelwright, rep. 1648; had William, b. 1646, wh. was of Dover, as well as the f. 1684, and is the ancest. prob. of a num. line; beside Jethro, and three ds.

GALL, AMBROSE, perhaps of Charlestown, m. as is said, Mary, d. of Samuel Ward, in early days; but in my opin. the surname is error for Gale, and for EDMUND, Marblehead 1668, I have the same charita. guess. GALLARD. See Gaylord. GALLISON, ELISHA, Falmouth 1689, had a garrison ho. but Willis, I. 200, calls him Elihu Gullison. See Geneal. Reg. III. 25. Possib. he was s. of Hugh Gunnison.

SAMUEL, S. of the preced. was prob. a soldier in Turner's comp. in Philip's war, and certain. a capt. 1690, in the wild and sad expedit. of Sir William Phips against Quebec, fr. wh.

This may be the same name as foll. GALT, WILLIAM, Salem, d. bef. 1669, says Essex Inst. II. 96; but as the name never appears in other place, I have doubt of the spell.

Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 19 Feb. 1670; and Benjamin, 7 July 1671. As this seems very rare name, perhaps it may be var. for Jansen. GAPPAD, DANIEL, if this be not an impossib. name, is by Porter call. one of the first sett. tho. not orig. propr. of Hartford, 1636. Hinman has, 29, Garwood, Daniel, as of Hartford, 1639; and greater variation than this is made by practiced eyes in read. some old MS. Perhaps the name is Garrett. Daniel is so very rare a name of bapt. in our early days, that it may lead to true surname. GARDE, GARD, or GARRARD, JOHN, Warwick 16~5, rem. to New London 1667, perhaps was the man, "old John Gard," in 1712, and his s. Daniel charg. with misdemean.

He d. very sudden. at Hartford, whither he went on business, and a monu. to his mem. bears this inscript. there: "Here lyeth the body of Mr. David Gardiner, of Gardiner's Island, deca. 10 July 1689 in 54th yr. of his age. Well, sick, dead in one hours space. Engrave the remembr. of death on thine heart; when, ag thou dost see, how swiftly hours depart." JOSEPH, Wickford, is said to be the founder of a fam. of distinct. and call. one of the first [[226]] sett. of Narraganset. He was f. of Benoni, bef. ment. whose eldest s. William, b. 1671, d. 14 Dec. 1732. The fourth s. of William was Sylvester, an emin. physician of Boston, b. at S. Kingstown, 1707.

Isle of Wight, and she was the first Eng. ch. b. there. He was a man of very gr. energy and discretion, as fully was shown in the Pequot war. Of that he wrote a Relation, less exact, indeed, than entertain. but worth perusal, print. after 200 yrs. repose, in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 131. He lived at Easthampton longer than at Saybrook; had early acquir. the admir. est. off the E. end of Long 1. (still enjoy. by descend. of the ninth generat.) call. Gardine isl. in Gardiner's Bay; prob. liv. after 1642 on L. I. and d. late in 1663. His wid. liv. a. two yrs. and her will is rec. at New York. His will of 1658 names the two first b. and the gr.ch.

Arthur Howell of Easthampton, had Elizabeth and d. soon after in Feb. 1658. Of course her m. was bef. she was sixteen yrs. old. Perhaps his name of bapt. was Lionel, in old times common eno. but I have never met the conject. and Lion is a more appropr. designat. for the lion-hearted. RICHARD, Plymouth 1620, one of the passeng. of the Mayflower, was liv. late in 1624, but tho. he partook of the div. of lds. early in that yr. he had no share in the div. of cattle, 1627.

THOMAS, Salem, was first at Cape Ann, employ. by the project. of sett. to oversee fishery, 1624 or 5, and rem. with Conant, freem. 17 May 1637, rep. same yr. It is said, on what ground I kn. not, that he was from Scotland; but to me it seems much more likely, that he was from Sherborne in N. part of Co. Dorset. Ten other ch. he had, by his first w. Margaret Fryer, beside Seeth, bapt. 25 Dec. 1636 (wh. m. I believe, the sec. Joseph Grafton); as, Thomas, Richard, George, John, Samuel, Joseph, Sarah, Elizabeth Bethia, and Miriam, for some of wh. the prob. is stronger than for others. Only six s. with three ds. are nam. in his will of 7 Dec. 1668. Sarah was w. of Benjamin Balch, it is thot. and Miriam of a Hill; and Margaret, wh. was rec. of the ch. 1689, may have been his w. He had sec. w. Damaris Shattuck, a wid. from Eng. wh. d. 28 Nov. 1674, and d. 29 Dec. 1674. THOMAS, Roxbury, d. Nov. 1638; and "our aged sis. G." Mays the cb. rec. was bur. 7 Oct. 1658, wh.

THOMAS, Salem, merch. eldest 8. of Thomas of the same, b. no doubt in Eng. rec. of the cb. 1639, freem. 2 June 1641, was a selectman, d. 1684. Hannah, prob. his w. is, by Felt, ins. among ch. mem. of 1649.

Perhaps Mr. Farmer had, from Felt, names of sev. other ch. but some, I believe, were brs. and sis. of his. THOMAS, Roxbury, s. prob. of Thomas of the same, b. in Eng. m. 4 July 1641, if the rec. be distinct, Lucy Smith, had Andrew, b. 5 Mar. 1642, bef. ment.; Thomas, 1645, a wrong mo. being giv. in the rec.; Abigail, bapt. 15 Feb. 1646, d.

Neither of the last five is named by Ellis, nor are the last three found in town rec. Perhaps, as his resid. was in that part of Boston, call. Muddy river, the clk. did not think he was of R. He was freem. 1646; and his w. d. 4 Nov. 1687, and he d. 15 July 1689; in his will, made three days bef. provides for Thomas, and Joshua; beside ds.

Mary had John, b. 2 June 1643; Robert; Mary; and Sarah; all ment. in his will of 27 Nov. 1660, in wh. he says "being bound on a voyage to Barbados;" yet he liv. prob. some yrs. after that. In the deed of Boston est. to him, he is styled Garret, alias Bentcher. His s. John, says Deane, had only s. Richard, b. 1689. GARRETSON, JOHN, Boston, m. 5 Dec. 1659, Alice Willey, perhaps d. of Isabel. GARRISON, or GARRESEN, EDWARD, Boston, m. 29 Aug. 1660, Joan Pullen. GARROLD, HENRY, Boston, a tanner, 1639, had bot. in Nov. preced. ho. of James Hawkins, that had been Mr. Brenlon's. GARVEN, JOHN, Salem, was drown. 5 Feb. 1662, and his posthum. d.

He had s. John, wh. a. 9 Oct. 1686, perhaps few days old; and his w. Elizabeth d. 18 of the same. The Salem rec. also certif. that by w. Elizabeth he had Elizabeth b. 13 May 1688; where we can see that an error of date is giv. unless he had sec. w. of the same name as the first. But he could certain. not be f. of that temporary dweller in Cambridge or Charlestown nam. SAMUEL, wh. was after of New Haven, m. very likely as sec. w. 20 July 1687, Elizabeth Sherman, d. of John, but whether the min. or the capt. is by Bond left uncert. Yet we may easily presume that between the two Samuels there is confus. tho. we may be very sure that no Quaker would then have been permit. to m. a d. of either Capt. or Rev. John S. It was clear. the d. of Rev. John that m. at mature age after her f.'s d. Samuel G. a thriving merch. of New Haven, had prob. Samuel and Mary perhaps by former w. and he had bapt. at Watertown, John, 30 Nov. 1690; and d. 1706. His inv. was of 20 Jan. foll. and Sherman's d. Elizabeth was admin. SAMUEL, Stratford, s. of the preced. d. soon after his f. leav. w. Abigail half his est. beside provis. in case she were pregnant, and residue to sis. Mary, by his will of 31 Jan. 1707. GATCHELL, or GETCHELL, sometimes GITCHELL, JEREMIAH, Marblehead 1668-1674. JOHN, Salem 1637, aged a. 26, was of Marblehead 1648. He may have been the f. of that John, a soldier in Beers's comp. wh. fell 4 Sept. 1675, with his leader, at Squakeag fight. JONATHAN, Marblehead 1674, rem. to Portsmouth, R. L and there m. 5 Mar. 1683, [[235]] Mary, wid. of Gershom Wodell, had Priscilla, b. 10 Nov. foll. and Isbell, 22 Oct. 1685. SAMUEL, Salem 1638, rem. to Hampton 1644, thence to Salisbury 1648, by w.

"a ch. of Joseph Gates's relict," but the careless town rec. marks her b. 31 Mar. of that yr. His wid. d. 17 Nov. 1759 in her 89th yr. SAMUEL, East Haddam, youngest 8. of George, by w. Esther had Sarah, b. 15 July 1712; Hannah, 4 Feb. 1714; Samuel, 14 Aug. 1715; Esther, 26 Feb. bapt. 2 Mar. 1718; Mary, b. 29 July 1719; James, 29 Aug. 1721; Stephen, 30 June 1723; and Jonah, bapt. 25 Apr. 1725.

GATSELL, WALTER, came in the Abigail 1635, aged 34, but we kn. GATTERY, JOHN. See Gaffingsley.GAULT, WILLIAM, of Yarmouth, Co. Norfolk, cordwainer, aged 29 yrs. a single man, emb. 11 May 1637 in the Mary Ann, but we kn. not his resid. here; nor can the name be found, exc. that John Easton, wh. bec. gov. of R. I. had m. 4 Feb. 1661, Mehitable G. wh. may have been his d. But it may well seem, that he liv. at Salem, for there Mary, wid. of William Goult or Gott, had contr. for m. with Richard Bishop, as his sec. w. in July 1660, as in Essex Inst. II. 182, is well shown. GAUNT, PETER, Lynn, rem. to Sandwich 1637, there was liv. 1643. THOMAS, Rehoboth, perhaps s. of the preced. may be the same as in ano. part of the Col. Rec. is giv. Grant, of the bur. of whose ch. Sept. 1676, ment. is made on Col. Rec. had John, b. 21 Jan. 1678. GAY, EBENEZER, Dedham, s. of John the first, by w.

Nathaniel, John, Jonathan, Samuel, Abigail, and Judith, and giv. especial. to "sis. Whiting that new book concerning Thomas Savage," for wh. I fear, all search in bibliograph. works will be vain. In the lists of freem. 1644 and 5 appears the name of John Gay, but it may well be feared, that one, if not both, is or are repetition only. Ano. fam. of Gay there was, indeed, in Dedham, or in that part wh. bec. Wrentham, who widely spread, but of wh. the progenit. is not kn. to me. JOHN, Watertown, by w.

JOHN, Dorchester 1632, one of two chos. by the town to meet the Court of Assist. bef. any system of rep. had been formed.

Jotham was of Bermuda, 1655, but liv at Boston, and d. 1658; and a Mr. Gibbons made a visit to Boston 1668. Scottow speaks of his "honorable extract." A worthless forgery of six pages, pr. at London, 1708, represent: as offic. despatch from com. of a Span. fleet, 1640, tells of our maj. G. in July of that yr. on the N.

Sometimes he is call. Jesse; by President Quincy and many others, Joseph; but the stranger name prevails. Of course, he has no claim to be insert. in these pages, as inhab. of N.

Such was the hatred borne to the red race, indiscrim. by some, and the strict, impartial admin. of the governm. not foll. always in our days. Daniel was perhaps uncle of the other offender, and Stephen had ch. b. at C. by w. Hannah, Hannah, 3 Nov. 1666; Daniel, 21 Mar. 1669; John, 20 July 1671; and Elsey, 1673.

[[269]] that, since he "had opportun. to look a little into that action, for wh. these men suffer. I could never see that it was justifiable." Perhaps he felt, that putting to d. in cold blood the sovereign, with wh. they had treat. on equal terms, as their captive, for sev. yrs. was a murder, unless excus. by necessity; and that coward. pretence, when need. is easi. found.

GOOLE, FRANCIS, Duxbury 1643; at Braintree, by w. Rose, had Samuel, b. 6 Feb. 1659. Ê GOOSE, ISAAC, Boston, freem. 1690, in wh. yr. his w. Mary d. aged 42.

Susanna, d. of Thomas Jones of C. wh. d. 4 May 1674; had Thomas, b. 5 June 1664; John, bapt. 16 May 1669, tho. unless we kn. how many yrs. old he was, we might guess him to be s. of ano. generat. perhaps others; and d. 1666, says Felt, but erron. for admin. on his est. was tak. 1664.

JOHN, Roxbury, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. m.

GORGES, ROBERT, s. of Sir Ferdinando, in Sept. 1693, came over and sat down with sev. fams. at Weymouth, but they were soon willing, to go home, and perhaps very few, if any, contin. for a sec. yr. THOMAS, York, cous. of the preced. neph. of Sir F. came in 1640, was first mayor of the corpo. but went home after three yrs. Winthrop II. 9. In Hutch. I. 176, is a strange tradit. that he came back and d. here. WILLIAM, Saco, ano. neph. of Sir F. deput. with full authority for his governm. of Somersetsh. i. e. all the coast betw. the Kennebeck and Piscataqua riv. came over in 1635, and on new-year's day, 25 Mar. 1636, held his court; but, I imagine, he was soon tired of his office, and went home.

RALPH, Duxbury 1637, prob. came, with s. John, and prob. Ralph, from Benefield, near Oundle, a. six or seven ms. dist. Northamptonsh. But no more is heard of him, so that we may suppose he went home. SHUBAEL, or (as common. writ.) SHOBAL, Barnstable, s. of first John, m. May 1695, Priscilla Hussey, had George, b. 29 Jan. 1697; Abigail, Mar. 1699; Lydia, 14 May 1701; Hannah, 28 July 1703; Theodate, 18 July 1705; Daniel, 2 Sept. 1708; Desire, 26 Sept. 1710; and Ruth, 7 May 1713. Nathaniel, Presid. of the Contin. Congr. 1786, and his s. Benjamin, H. C. 1796, sev. times mem. of U. S. Congr. were descend. Early this name was writ. with double r. and without h. sometimes Goarum. Eight had been gr. at Harv. 1832. GORNELL, JOHN, Dorchester, tanner, may have come 1630 in the Mary and John, from Devonsh. or from Suffk. with Winthrop; freem. 10 May 1643, d. 31 July 1675, aged 64 yrs. says his gr.stone whose spell.

She is call. on the gr.stone near his, w. of John Gornell, without any refer. to Burge. He had large est. and, as the ch. of his brs. or sis. would not come to partake it, acco. to his bequest, in will of 19 Jan. lG74, the town has enjoy. good portion of the £1648. value. GORNOCK, DUNCAN, New Haven 1688, a mem. of the ch. then, and his w. Margaret join. 1689; but I can hardly think any ch. of such a name was there. GORTON, ABRAHAM, Roxbury, s. of John, m. 31 May 1683, Mary Sumner, had Mary, b. 24 Mar. 1684; and John, 9 Mar. 1686. Perhaps he rem. BENJAMIN, Warwick, youngest s. of the first Samuel, m. 5 Dec. 1672, Sarah, d. of Richard Calder, had Mary, b. Oct. 1673; Maplet; Sarah; Samuel; Benjamin; Alice; and ano. d. The five ds. all m.

He was freem. 1669, and d. 1676, in his will of 17 June in that yr. names w. s. Abraham, and ds. Sarah, Mary, and Alice. Mary m. 23 May 1665, Daniel Marshcroft. JOHN, Warwick, sec. s. of the first Samuel, m. 28 June 1668, Margaret Wheaton, had Othniel, b. [[283]] 22 Sept. 1669; Samuel, 22 July 1672; John; and Benjamin, a. 1681. SAMUEL, Warwick, a. most active relig. disturber of sev. places, b. a. 1600, at Gloton, where, he says, his fam. had been many generat. came to Boston 1636, went soon to Plymouth, thence, in 1638, to Rhode Isl. was adm. an inhab. 27 June of that yr. but in the autumn of 1611 was disquieting Roger Willinms at Providence; in 1643, with Holden, Greene, and others, made the great movem. to purchase of Warwick from the Ind. wh. led to hostile aggress. by the governm. of Mass. who took all his sett. prisoners, and punish. them cruel. not without some hesitat. even sparing their lives. next yr. he went to Eng. with other suffer. and obtain. just assertion of his right, and had peace near thirty yrs. for his adherents in the cloudy doctrines. See good Mem. in R. I. Hist. Coll. Il. by Judge Staples; and critical disquis. by Charles Deane in Genealog. Reg. IV. 201. He had ch. Samuel, John, and Benjamin, beside the ds. Maher, wh. m. Daniel Coles; Mary, wh. m. perhaps, Peter Greene, first, and, next, John Sanford; Sarah, wh. m. William Mace; Ann, wh. m. John Warner; Elizabeth m. John Crandall, and Susanna, m. Benjamin Barton. SAMUEL, Warwick, eldest s. of the preced. m. 11 Dec. 1684, Susanna, d. of William Burton, had Samuel, b. 1 June 1690; Hezekiah, 11 June 1692; and Susanna, 4 June 1694; and d. 1724, aged, as report is, 94 yrs. but that may seem greatly exagger. He was old eno. in 1670 to act as interpreter betw. the Eng. and Ind. THOMAS, Portsmouth, R. I. freem. 1655. GOSIER, BASTIAN, Boston, a strange name of some Huguenot, I suppose, of less importance than most of that noble comp. wh. the earliest ment. of, in our town rec. is under the name of Gazeau, as hav. by w. Elizabeth s. Bartholomew, b. 23 Apr. 1686; William, 19 Aug. 1687; John, 4 Aug. 1689; and Elizabeth Sept. 1690. Perhaps he was invited by the clk. to write, and the sec. ch. appears to be s. of Bastian Geffeere, so that the chirogra. was as difficult to be made out as the sound. In growing towards English, from Gazeau, I give the form wh. is claim. for the two last ch. He may have rem. from B. GOSMER, JOHN, Southampton, L. I. 1641, took est. Aug. 1665 in Boston, wh. in June 1658, he made over "to his kinswo. Ann, w. of Richard Carter." GOSNALL, HENRY, Boston 1634, had w. Mary. GOSNOLD, BARTHOLOMEW, the disting. navigat. s. and heir, as he styles hims. of Anthony G. of Grundisburgh, first nam. in honor of his Sovereign, if he did not discov. the Elizabeth islands, S.

[[284]] GOSS, EDWARD, Marblehead 1668. JOHN, Watertown, freem. 18 May 1631, came in the fleet, prob. with Winthrop 1630, and w. Sarah, and sev. ch. of wh. Joseph was bur. 10 May 1631, and Elizabeth d. 25 Dec. 1641. He was the man, I think, punish. by very heavy fine for evil speech; and the court, on pet. of w. and childr. represent. his mental distemp. Apr. 1640, confirm. by Phillips, Mayhew, and others, remit. the whole. His name in the freem. list was read as hav. double f. instead of double s. He was bur. Feb. 1644, and his wid. m. Robert Nichols. PHILIP, Roxbury, or, as may seem not unlikely, Muddy riv. as the town rec. does not show his name; the ch. by his w. Hannah Hopkins, bapt. at R. were Philip, 16 Feb. 1679; Hannah, 16 of next mo.; and Mary, 22 Aug. 1680. RICHARD, N. Hampsh. 1689. GOTOBED, ROBERT, Concord, d. 10 Mar. 1667.

SAMUEL, Topsfield, s. of the first John of the same, m. 20 Apr. 1694, Margaret Stone, whose f. is unkn. had Sarah, b. 25 Feb. 1698, wh. d. unm. 21 Feb. 1786; Samuel, bapt. 6 Apr. 1701; Moses; Jonathan, 4 Sept. 1709; Patience; Margaret; Zaccheus, a. 1716; and Hubbard; and d. 1724, his will of 26 Nov. in that yr. being pro. 21 Dec. foll. Perhaps he liv. late in life at Boxford. THOMAS, Boston, came in the Jonathan 1639, aged 32, may have been the freem. of 2 June 1641, but he was not of Boston ch. so that it is doubtful; but perhaps was first of Cambridge, and by w. Mary had Jacob, b. 16 Sept. 1643; d. 26 Oct. 1662. THOMAS, Newport 1655, m. Elizabeth d. of William Balstone, wh. had been, the former yr. divorc. from John Coggeshall, may have been many yrs. of Wickford 1674. THOMAS, Charlestown, with w. Hannah, join. to the ch. 1640, had Hannah, bapt. 11 Apr. 1641, he a 1665, bec. a Bapt. was long imprison. for his falling off, but ultimate. discharg. with reput. He had sec. w. Mary bef. all his troubles were over; but I kn. not if bef. or after he gather. the first Bapt. ch. of B. and C. in May 1665. He d.

Ano. [[287]] THOMAS, of Charlestown in 1652, with w. Hannah joining the ch. that yr. may have been s. of John, unless I have been confus. by two ws. of one. THOMAS, Boston, m. 10 Sept. 1636, Frances Robinson, had Thomas, b. 27 Nov. 1659; prob. other ch. beside Ann, b. a. 1685, wh. m. 27 Feb. 1703, Nathaniel Green. THOMAS, Salem, by w.

His wid. d. 8 May 1763. ZACCHEUS, Lynn 1640, had, says Lewis, s. Daniel, b. a. 1650, wh. went, I suppose, with other of his neighb. to Reading. ZACCHEUS, Weymouth 1639. ZACCHEUS, Ipswich 1644 (in that pt. wh. soon was incorp. as Topsfield), came from Hants Green, near Potter's Row, in Co. Bucks, a parish, seen on the map, a. 33 miles from London, near Gr. Missenden, left good est. to only s. John, and four ds. perhaps, both at Rowley and Topsfield. His d. Phebe m. Thomas Perkins; Martha m. John Newmarch; Mary m. a (prob. Abraham) Redington, and Priscilla m. John Wild, wh. strange as it may appear, was a witness against her br. ZACCHEUS, Topsfield, s. of the first John of the same, m. 21 Jan. 1702, Elizabeth Curtis, but whose d. she was is unkn. had Elizabeth b. 13 Feb. 1703; Mary, 11 Mar. 1705; Priscilla, 4 Aug. 1707; John, 29 Jan. 1710; Sarah, 28 Jan. 1712; Abigail, 12 Aug. bapt. 25 Sept. 1715; Zaccheus, 7 Nov. 1717; Eliezer, 29 May, bapt. 17 July 1720; and Susanna, 11 Feb. bapt. 28 Apr. 1723; and d. 1739, in his will of 16 Apr. of that yr. pro. 28 May foll. names all the nine ch. as alive. From this br. of the ancest. tree descends Benjamin A. wh. so many of the scholars of Boston honor as their instruct. in the classics. Six of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. fourteen at Yale, and three at other coll. of N. E. GOULDEN, or GOLDEN, ROGER, R. I. 1676, capt. of a vessel, did serv. in Philip's war, especial. on 12 Aug. 1676, when the gr. adversa. was k. m. Penelope, d. prob. youngest of the first Benedict Arnold.

H. 1680, raised insurrect. 1682 against the royal gov. Cranfield; but being insane or drunk, perhaps both, and unsupport. by other patriots, was tak. convict. of treason, sentenc. to d. and ship. from Boston to London, where he was kept in gaol some yrs. At last he was let off, being, not of suffic. import. to suffer for so dignified an offence, and his est. restor. Full story of this folly is in Belkn. I. 98-100, and briefer in Chalmers, Polit. Ann. 495-6. He was first of Salisbury, there had John, b. 19 Sept. 1661; William, 21 Oct. 1662, d. next yr.; Hannah, Mar. 1664; and at H. had Mary, 14 Apr. 1666, wh. m. 28 Dec. 1682, Joseph Sanborn; Abigail; Peniel; both d. soon; Abigail, again, 17 Apr. 1670, wh. m. 25 Sept 1690, Philemon Dalton of Hampton; Ebenezer, 23 June 1671; Edward, d. soon; Jeremiah, 3 Oct. 1674, d. at 18 yrs.; Ann, 9 Jan. 1677, m. 3 July 1696, Jeremiah Conner; and Sarah, 5 Nov. 1678, wh. m. 16 Dec. 1698, Samuel Dearborn. He d. 29 July 1691, and his wid. Hannah d. after 1712. GEORGE, Dover 1667 and 8, prob. capt. in 1696. JOHN, Charlestown, was, I suppose, a merch. who had not long been inhab. in his will of 22 Jan. 1648, made very shortly bef. he d. names ch. John, Edward, and Mary, giv. the last to Ralph Mousall to bring up. JOHN, Cambridge, prob. br. of Edward, m. 6 Oct. 1658, Mary, perhaps d. of William Aspinwall, wh. d. 14 Nov. 1676, had Mary, b. 14 Sept. 1659; John, 21 Sept. 1660; both bapt. 8 Mar. 1661, for she had unit. with the ch. three days bef.; Aspinwall, 2, bapt. 6 Oct. 1661, d. in few days; Nathaniel, bapt. 16 Nov. 1662; James, 13 Dec. 1663, d. young; Nathaniel, again, 4 Aug. 1667; he m. sec. w. 15 Mar. 1677, Mary Woodhead, had Jonathan, b. 19 Jan. 1678, wh. d. 11 Oct. 1681; Jonathan, again, 3 May 1682; and Sarah, 28 Aug. 1686. His s. John d. 28 Apr. 1679; his w. d. 11 Sept. 1700; and he m. third w. 2 Dec. 1700, wid. Elizabeth Walden, and d. 21 Nov. 1704, aged a. 77. It is thot. that John, his f. came to C. a. 1653, bring. Edward and John; this last, constable at C. 1667, being, then call. junr. and perhaps the f. d. 16 Jan. 1682. JOHN, Hampton, s. of Edward, engag. in the ridicul. treason with his f. got off by his youth, by w. Sarah had Mary, b. 29 Oct. 1687; John, 29 Oct. 1689; Hannah, 1 Apr. 1 69 1; Jonathan, 2 May 1695; Sarah; and Abigail; and he d. 1737.

He rem. to Weston, where his w. d. 18 Apr. 1740; and he d. 22 Dec. 1747. GOWING, or GOWEN, JOHN, Lynn, by w. Joanna, m. 1682, had, says Lewis, John, Thomas, Elizabeth Samuel, Joanna, Lois, and Timothy, but he gives no dates for them. NATHANIEL, Reading, freem. 1691. ROBERT, [[289]] Dedham, freem. 1644, by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 13 Nov. 1645. SIMON, Rowley, a soldier of Appleton's comp. wound. in the gr. battle of Philip's war, 19 Dec. 1675. GOYT, JOHN, Dorchester 1635, rem. perhaps 1642, or earlier, to Salem, where Mary, prob. his w. was adm. to the ch. 1643, had there bapt. Joseph, and Mary, 30 July 1643, and Mary, again, 17 Mar. 1644; was of Marblehead 1648, and d. there, a. 1663, at least, his inv. has that date. GOZZARD, NICHOLAS, Windsor, d. 1693, leav. wid.

In 1679 he rem. to what is now Suffield, where his d. Elizabeth m. 16 July 1684, Vicary Sikes; and there he d. 1689. His wid. Joanna was liv. 1701. All the ds. m. and Abraham, with three brs. ea. had fams. at S. Hon. Gideon, P.-M.-Gen. of the U. S. was of this stock. SAMUEL, Suffield, s. of the preced. m. Esther, d. of deac.

GRANT, ALEXANDER, Boston 1657, one of the found. of the Scot's Charit. Soc. that yr. Among, the twelve Grants, transport. in the John [[291]] and Sarah from London 1652, to be sold at Boston, part of the gleanings of the field of carnage at Worcester of 3 Sept. preced. is one Alexander, wh. may be this man; but it seems to me very unlikely. None of that cargo would be kindly rec. here as they had been smitten by the wrath of Heaven in the odious cause of Charles II.; and tho. some may think, that of these young men it might be large sacrifice to take, at the lowest comput. three quarters in five yrs. yet I believe that a larger proportion than that fell victims to the heartless policy. See the end of this paragr. under Thomas. BENJAMIN, New London, a. 1664, mariner, perhaps s. of Christopher, m. a d. of Matthew Beckwith, rem. to Lyme, and d. a. 1670, leav. ch. But Bond gives BENJAMIN s. of Christopher, to be of Watertown 1694, a weaver, with w. Priscilla, so that, in my opinion, one man only must be count. Benjamin, wh. was of Cambridge, says Caulkins, in 1693. CALEB, Watertown, a mason, by w. Mary, wh. d. 1 Feb. 1684, had Caleb; Sarah, b. 1671, d. soon; Joseph, 3 Apr. 1681, d. soon; Mary; and Abigail, 2 Jan. 1684; and he d. 5 Nov. 1694. CHRISTOPHER, Watertown 1634, by w.

Sarah had Sarah, 1 Feb. 1643; Joseph, 27 Sept. 1646; Mary, or Mercy, or both; and Christopher, 1649; but it is observable, that Bond takes note of only one wife. He d. 6 Sept. 1685; employ. in sett. the glass in the first edifice erect. for Harv. Coll. Abigail m. Roger Rose; Sarah m. 23 Feb. 1666, Samuel Seaverns; Mary m. 27 Feb. 1668, Daniel Smith; and much puzzle may be seen as to m. of Mercy with Samuel Daniel, or Daniels, in Bond, 197, 260, and 776. EDWARD, Boston 1658, shipwright, m. Sarah, d. of William Ward, or Weare, had Experience, b. 26 Dec. 1658; and Joseph, 15 Feb. 1661; freem. 1672, d. 1682, leav. wid. Sarah, and s. Joseph only.

Blaxton, on this peninsula, giv. at p. 29 of the Dorchester Saxton's Memo. imposed on the severe judgment of Farmer. Many false impres. can be obt. from gr.stones, thoughtless. changed, as often they are by idle sch.boys, as one of them, sixty-seven yrs. ago, did, in sev. instances at that bur. ground. by his acknowledm. to me.

THOMAS, Rehoboth, had ch. bur. Sept. 1676, without [[293]] name, prob. very young. I think this name may have been misspelt on the rec. Gaunt; yet under Grant appears again in Col. Rec. hav. Hannah, b. 4 Apr. 1681; David, 2 Feb. 1683. Under this name came to our country many, twelve men in one ship, the John and Sarah, from London in May 1652; three call. James; three, John; and one, Alexander, Alister, Daniel, Patrick, Thomas, and William, respectiv. They were among the 272 wretch. passeng. put on board Nov. preced. "free by ordin. of Parl. 20 Oct." to be sold here, prisoners, gleaned on the fatal field of Worcester, 3 Sept. of that yr. A simil. cargo, from the doleful harvest of Dunbar, of near. the same numb. prob. in the former yr. sent to us by the governm. at home, had, as in his let. of 28 July 1651, from Boston, to the Lord Gen. Cromwell, our John Cotton assures him, "not been sold for slaves to perpet. servitude, but for 6, or 7, or 8 yrs. as we do our own." For the precise import of these last words, that may seem intentional. ambiguous, moderate sagacity will suggest different conject. yet far more interest belongs to the number; and tho. it is easy enough to guess, it is difficult to ascertain, the exact enumeration. But some in the shipm. of the former yr. must have been Grants. Neither of these slave cargoes prob. could add much to our wholesome population. The Comtee. of the Privy Council, a quarter century after, sent over to Gov. Bradstreet a series of twenty-seven questions relat. to the condition of this Col. in every particular, to wh. in 1680 he gave answers, the latter part of 17th hav. these words: "Now when, two or three negroes are brot. hither from Barbados and other of his Majesty's plantations, and sold here for about twenty pounds a piece; so that there may be, within our governm. a. 100 or 120, and it may be as many Scots brot. hither and sold for servants in the time of the war with Scotland, and most now married and liv. here, and about half so many Irish, brot. hither at sev. times as servants." The "crowning mercy," as Oliver, with foresight at least equal to his piety, entitled the result of each of those terrible days, showed its profit more in England than among the Cols. in the West Ind. or N. A. Most of the unhappy exiles d. of disease, we may believe, whether titled scurvy or broken heart; and some of the sad remainder, no doubt, after close of the years for wh. they had been sold, abandoned the land of their sorrows. Twenty-eight and nine yrs. only had elapsed when Bradstreet loose report, and by his reckoning, inexact as it is, We see reason for inference, that four fifths of the young prisoners, brot. here in 1651 and 2, were not remaining. From his laxity of phrase "most now married and liv. here," I should feel compel. to make large deduction. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 337. So that after yrs. of consideration giv. to this subject, and dilig. inquiry for the stocks whence [[294]] sprang the N. E. popul. of 1775, and duly estimating the ratio of increase from that glorious colony of "Scotch Irish," sixty-five yrs. later, whose male adults were only one third of these offscouring of the civil war, I presume that not more than one in twenty or thirty of these involunt. youthful "redemptioners" was m. on our shores. Here is one of the necessary sequences of such social convulsion. The names of most of these sad settlers from one ship may be seen in Genealog. Reg. I. 377; and the valuable epistle of Cotton to Cromwell is in Hutch. Coll. GRANTHAM, ANDREW, Newbury, d. 15 Dec. 1668. GRATH. See GROTH. GRAVES, ABRAHAM, Concord 1677, E. of John, was of Andover 1689.

ISAAC, Hatfield, s. of John of the same, m. 1679, Sarah, d. of John Wyatt of Haddam, whose wid. had m. his f. JOHN, Roxbury, came in May 1633, with w. who d. soon after, and 5 ch. John, Samuel, Jonathan, Sarah, and Mary, says the ch. rec. The William and Jane came in that mo. but as Winthrop says she brot. only thirty passeng. I think these came, perhaps, that mo. in the other sh. Mary and Jane, wh. had 196. In Dec. 1635 he m. Judith Alward, or Allard, had Hannah, b. 8 Sept. 1636; was freem. 18 Apr. 1637, and d. 4 Nov. 1644. Eliot calls him "godly br." and after mention, next to him, of funer. of "Thomas Ruggles, a godly br." adds: "these two broke the knot first of the Nazing Christians. I mean they first d. of all those Christians that came from that town in Eng." As he, also, came from that little town, we know how he must have felt their loss. Fourth after the d. of the s. we read in the rec. Jan. "a. 24 day, old mo. Graves d. She was a. 80 yrs. of age." In his will, of 1 Nov. 1644, he provides for his mo. for w. and all the ch. exc. Sarah, who was, prob. d.; but on 26 Nov. of next yr. his s. [[295]] John made his will, and gives to all br. and sis. yet more to Sarah than the other two, and to his f.'s wid. On 5 Dec. 1645, the writer adds to his sad list: "John Graves, a godly young man, eldest s. of him who d. the yr. bef." The wid. Judith m. 2 June 1646, William Potter, surv. him and m. 13 Dec. 1654, Samuel Finch; and Hannah m. 24 May 1654, John Mayo. JOHN, Wethersfield, br. of Isaac, b. in Eng. freem. of Conn. 1654, had John, Mary, Isaac, Samuel, and Sarah, b. there, rem. 1659 or 60, to Hadley, w. side of the riv. now Hatfield, and had Elizabeth b. 1662; Daniel, 1664; Ebenezer, 1666; Bethia, 1668, d. soon; and Nathaniel, 1671; perhaps this last by sec. w. Mary, wid. of John Wyatt of Haddam. He was k. by the Ind. 19 Sept. 1677. Of the ten ch. nine were liv. in 1692. Daniel and Ebenezer sett. in Springfield. His wid. m. lieut. William Allis, and next, Samuel Gaylord. JOHN, Concord 1643, had, says Shattuck, Benjamin, who m. 1668, Mary Hoar; John, who m. 1671, Mary, d. of Thomas Chamberlain; and Abraham. JOHN, Guilford, s. of first George, perhaps b. in Eng. m. 26 Nov. 1657, Elizabeth d. of Jasper Stillwell, had John, Joseph, Nathaniel, Sarah, Abigail, and Hannah, with good est. was a capt. deac. rep. 1670 and 6, still one of the proprs. and so was his s. John, in 1685. Prob. he d. 1694, for his inv. was brot. in 28 Apr. of that yr. JOHN, Hatfield 1679, s. of JOhn of the same. JOHN, Casco, bef. 1680 m. Martha, d. of Michael Mitton.

But he was in 1682 liv. at Portsmouth, and had Abigail, b. 29 Dec. 1687. JOSEPH, Sudbury, s. of Thomas (call. the Admiral) of Charlestown, m. 15 Jan. 1666, Elizabeth d. of John Maynard, had Samuel, b. 14 Feb. 1667; Richard, 7 pr. 1672; John, 10 May 1674; and Deliverance. His w. d. 1676, he m. 1678, Mary Ross, had Mary, 1680; Ebenezer, 1681, d. soon; and Ebenezer again, 28 Feb. 1682. Descend. have been num. at S. MARK, Lynn, had Hannah, b. 14 Dec. 1657; and Esther, 10 Feb. 1669. MarK, Andover, may, or may not, be the same as preced. by w. Amy, who d. 20 Feb. 1666, had Dorcas, who m. 17 Apr. 1678, George Abbot; Amy, b. 1659; Ruth, 1661; Sarah, 1663; Mark, 1664, d. young; his sec. w. m. 14 Nov. 1667, was Elizabeth prob. wid. of Jacob Farrington, and he had Abraham, Thomas, Mark, again, 1671; and Hannah, who m. 27 Dec. 1689, Timothy Abbot; but it is not certain, that one, or more, of the four last-nam. were not by the first w. NATHANIEL, Charlestown, eldest s. of Thomas of the same, b. on this side of the water, m. 24 or 29 Aug. 1664, Elizabeth d. of Richard Russell, had Nathaniel; Maud; and Elizabeth; beside Catharine, bapt. 6 Apr. 1673; was a mariner, and d. 12 Feb. 1679. His wid. m. capt. John Herbert Reading outliv. him, and d. 18 Oct. 1714, aged 70. NATHANIEL, Wethersfield may have been s. of Thomas of Hartford, perhaps b. in [[296]] Eng. freem. of Conn. 1657, d. 1682, leav. no s. and ds. Sarah, b. 1656; Mary, 1638; Rebecca, 1660; Martha, 1667; and Abigail, 1669. RICHARD, Salem, came from London in the Abigail 1635, aged 23, a pewterer, had bapt. there, in right of his w. WhO was rec. into the ch. just bef. three ch. at once, 14 Mar. 1641; Joseph, 16 Oct. 1642; Benjamin and Elizabeth I suppose tw. 6 Aug. 1645; Mar, 16 Apr. 1648; Richard, 6 Oct. 1650; Hannah, 15 Aug. 1652; and Deliverance, 16 July 1654. In the autumn of 1635, by the Hopewell, capt. Babb, from London, came John Grave, aged 30, and Mary 26, but whether they were, or either of them, maid, or w. or wid. or any way relat. to any in our country, is altogether beyond conject. RICHARD, Boston, had Ruth, wh. m. 7 Aug. 1656, Henry Keskeys. ROBERT, Ipswich 1638. SAMUEL, Lynn 1630, had Samuel, and prob. sev. other ch. of wh. we have no report. Lewis, 64. SAMUEL, Ipswich 1658, feltmaker, m. Grace, d. of William Beamsley of Boston, where he may have liv. at first, had Samuel, b.5 Aug,.1658; John, 1 Aug.1660; Elizabeth Hannah, 19 Dec. 1668 and Jonathan, wh. d. young. His d. is not dated, but his wid. liv. to 26 Nov. 1730, so was 95 yrs. Old. SAMUEL, Lynn, s. of Samuel of the same, m. 12 Mar. 1678, Sarah Brewer, had Crispus, b. 3 Aug. 1679; Hannah, 27 Aug. 1681; and Samuel, 2 Aug. 1684. SAMUEL, Ipswich, s. of the first Samuel of the same, took o. of fidel. 1678, by w. Joanna had Abigail, b. 11 Feb. 1683; Mary, 18 Feb. 1685; and Samuel, 26 Mar. 1687; and d. 4 Oct. 1732, aged 74. THOMAS, Charlestown, the engineer, who laid out the place in 1629, came (under contr. of 10 Mar. 1629), in the fleet with Higginson, with possib. but not prob. w. and five ch. from Gravesend, Co. Kent, arr. at Salem in June; by the Gov. and Comp. of the Mass. Bay was join. with the three min. two Brownes, and Samuel Sharp, as advisers of Endicott, wh. was never able to consult them, as a body; req. adm. 19 Oct. 1630, and 18 May foll. was made freem.; and no more is kn. of him, but prob. he went home in the spr. of 1632, when his engagem. end. or rather in the yr. after, for Frothingham, pp. 52 and 140, renders it prob. that he was still here in Mar. 1633; certain. he did not come to ch. union with his neighb. That his w. and ch. came to this side of the ocean is not cert. since the accurate Prince mistook him for the Adm. We may less wonder at this, for the fam. tradit. of the latter has confus. the two persons; and a vexatious uncertain. ran through all the books, until Young's Chron. 262; Budington, 168; and Frothingham, 140, particular. the last, by the widely diverse autographs, taught us, happi. to discrimin. THOMAS, Hartford, not an orig. propr. an old man, excus. from train. 1645, rem. to Hadley, perhaps had not any ch. b. here, yet had brot. from Eng. Isaac, John, and perhaps Samuel, and a d. whose name is unkn. [[297]] and possib. Nathaniel; as all, ex. this last, rem. with him. He d. Nov. 1662; and his wid. Sarah d. 1666. THOMAS, Dorchester, of whose sad fam. rem. to Virg. and there all d. exc. one, a d. miserable enough ; to throw away hers. and good est. upon Nathaniel Eaton, the outcast head of Harv. Coll.; the story is found in Winthrop II. 342; but it is strange, that Harris did not give the name among his townsmen. THOMAS, Charlestown 1638, prob. was nine yrs. bef. mate of the Talbot, in wh. came Higginson to Salem, and in the same station on board the adm. sh. of Winthrop's fleet, was, it is said, s. of John, b. at Ratcliffe, near London, 6 June 1605, bapt. 16th of the same; was sev. yrs. master of a sh. almost constant. empl. betw. London and Boston, and in 1642 had the first vessel ever built at B. for foreign trade, in wh. his br.-in-law, Coytemore, made the first voyage in that yr.; was freem. 13 May 1640, m. in Eng,. bef. 1635, 1 presume, Catharine Gray, d. by her first h. of Catharine Coytemore, the wid. who came over in 1637, her s. Thomas C. hav. been here a yr. earlier, prob. brot. s. John, and perhaps ano. ch. unit. with his w. to the ch. 7 Oct. 1639, and on 5 of next mo. had bapt. their s. Nathaniel, and prob. Thomas, b. the yr. preced. beside Susanna, b. 8 July 1643, as the Boston clk. has record. for what reason can only be guess.; and Joseph, 13 Apr. 1645. He names these five ch. in his will, and two others, Rebecca, with her ch. and Elizabeth of wh. we hear no more. The wid. d. 21 Feb. 1682. He was a very active and brave man, for good serv. in the Eng. chan. perhaps on his last voyage, was reward. by Parliam. I suppose (certain. not, as tradit. says, by Oliver, whose power bec. perfect too late for such liberality), with the title of Rear Adm. and d. at C. 31 July 1653, the last will, however, was made 13 June 1652. Susanna m. 18 Nov. 1669, Rev. Zechariah Symmes, min. at a later day, of Bradford, and d. 23 July 1681, after hav. seven ch. THOMAS, Charlestown, s. of the preced. H.

Sewall, wh. was under him at coll. m. 16 May 1677, Elizabeth wid. of Dr. John Chickering, wh. d. 22 July 1679; was freem. 1673, and he m. 15 May 1682, Sarah, wid. of Dr. Samuel Alcock, d. of John Stedman of Cambridge, who had first been wid. of John Brackett. By her, perhaps, were b. all his ch. exc. a d.; Thomas, bapt. 30 Sept. 83, H. C. 1703; Catharine, John, Nathaniel, Susanna, and Joseph. But,; as Sewall, in his Diary, ment. his leav. a s. by the d. of Mr. Stedman, I almost necessari. infer, that all these ch. exc. Thomas, d. bef. their f. He was a physician, rep. and a judge, d. 30 May 1697, and his wid. (who had fourth h. Col. John Phillips, outliv. him and) d. 1 Mar. 1731 in 87th yr. His s. Thomas, a judge of Sup.

Of this name four had been gr. at Harv. and three at other N. E. coll. in 1834. GRAY, ARTHUR, Salem, m. 17 Nov. 1668, Hannah, d. of Richard Hyde, had Christian, b. 1 Aug. 1670; Joseph, 26 Dec. 1672, wh. d. soon; and Mary, 26 July 1674.

He was freem. 1690. GREEN, ABRAHAM, Hampton 1678. BARTHOLOMEW, Cambridge, [[300]] freem. 14 May 1634, came the yr. bef. and d. the yr. foll. when mak. prepar. to rem. with major part of his neighb. to Conn. as is said; but his wid. Elizabeth wh. d. 28 Oct. 1677, aged 88, and ch. Samuel, Nathaniel, Sarah, w. of Thomas Longhorn, and Phebe, were all of Cambridge ch. 1658. BARTHOLOMEW, Boston, youngest ch. of the first Samuel of Cambridge, was a printer of no small note for issue of the first newspaper on our contin. Apr. 1704, and so in our time more thot. of than his f. for the wonderful Bible. He was deac. of the third or Old S. ch. and d. 28 Dec. 1732. Next Thursday the newspaper from his office contain. an compact. memoir, in wh. his f. is made to vouch, perhaps unduly, for sev. things, among others, nineteen ch. eleven by first w. eight by sec. when by the rec. We are led to count seven by one, Six by the other. Even the birthday of the propr. may be thot. a yr. too early. BARTHOLOMEW, Charlestown, s. of the first Jacob of the same, by w. Maria, d. of Rev. Increase Mather, had s. Mather and d. Maria, bapt. 15 Oct. 1693; may have had no more. BENJAMIN, Warwick, s. of the first Thomas of the same, m. Susanna, seventh d. of Randall Houlden, had Benjamin. CHARLES, Marblehead 1668. DANIEL, Wickford 1671, own. jurisdict. of R. I. 20 May of that yr. with other inhab. of that Narraganset country, was prob. the same wh. by w. Rebecca had Peleg, b. 1690; Daniel, 1692; Jonathan, 1694; Rebecca, 1696; Rachel, 1698; Sarah, 1700; and Jonathan, again, 1705. But wh. was his f. is not seen. DAVID, Providence, s. by his sec. w. of the first James, m. a Slocum, perhaps d. of Giles the sec. had David; and by sec. w. wh. was a Barber, had Jonathan, Joseph, and sev. ds. HENRY, Reading, call. by Winthrop "a scholar," but we kn. not at wh. of the Universit. he was bred, had been, in 1643, invit. to go to Martha's Vineyard by its first sett. but went not, m. Frances, eldest d. of deac. Simon Stone, had Joanna and Nathaniel; and was the earliest min. of R. ord. 5 Nov. 1645, and d. 11 Oct. 1648. His wid. m. as the will of f. shows. HENRY, Ipswich 1641, was perhaps the freem. of 13 May 1640, for I can hardly suppose it possible, tho. Farmer gave it without suspicion, that the Rev. Henry would have failed of his prefix of respect from the secr. HENRY, Hampton 1644, was, perhaps, the couns. to the tyranny of Cranfield 1685, m. 1691, prob. for sec. or third w. wid. Martha Page, and d. 5 Aug. 1700, aged a. 80. HENRY, Malden, s. of the first Thomas, m. 11 Jan. 1672, Esther Hasey, perhaps d. of William had Henry, b. Jan. 1673; Esther, Sept. 1674; Lydia, 11 Aug. 1685; Jacob, 9 May 1689, beside Joseph, Daniel, and Dorcas, prob. all bef. Lydia, and he d. 19 Sept. 1717. His wid. d. 1740. HENRY, Wickford 1674. ISAAC, Salisbury 1678, freem. 1690. JABEZ, Providence, br. of David of the same, m. 16 May 1697, Mary, d. of Benjamin Barton, had James, Jabez, Nathaniel, Benjamin, Rufus, John, and a d. by first w. and ano. d. by sec. w. Nathaniel, his s. was f. of the [[301]] Gen. Nathaniel of the army of the Revo. JACOB, Charlestown, s. of John of the same, b. in Eng. came with him, had w. Elizabeth wid. of the sec. Robert Long, and ch. Jacob, b. 11 Oct. 1654; Joseph, wh. d. 26 Aug. 1657; John; Mary, s bapt. 13 May 1662; Bartholomew, 14 Feb. 1664; Dorcas, 31 Dec. 1665; Joseph, again, 5 Apr. 1668; ar. co. 1650, freem. 1650, was rep. 1677. He had sec. w. Mary, wid. of Matthew Whipple, d. of William Bartholomew. JACOB, Charlestown, s. of the first Jacob, by w.

JAMES, Charlestown 1634, freem. 1647, and of course his name is among the mem. of the ch. yet not found among householders; had w. Elizabeth s. John, and James, liv. on Mistick side, and a. 29 Mar. 1687, aged 77. JAMES, Warwick, s. of John the first of Providence, b. in Eng. was freem. 1655, m. Deliverance Potter, d. of Robert; had sec. w. Elizabeth d. of John Anthony; d. 27 Apr. 1698. He is call. the progenit. of Gen. Nathaniel Greene, the soldier of the Revo. By the first w. he had James, b. 6 June 1658; Mary, 8 Sept. 1660; Elisha, 7 Mar. 1662; and Sarah, 27 Aug. 1663; and by the sec. m. 3 Aug. 1665, Peter, 25 t Aug. 1666; Elizabeth 17 Oct. 1668, John, 1 Feb. 1671, d. young; Jabez, 17 May 1673; David, 24 June 1677; Thomas, 11 Nov. 1682; John, again, 30 Sept. 1685; and Susanna, wh. may have been b. bef. either of the last two, beings ment. in the will of her f. as under age of 18. Mary m. 19 Feb. 1685, James Reynolds of Narraganset; Sarah m. Henry . Reynolds; and Elizabeth m. a Reynolds, perhaps br. of other two, tho. I have seen a geneal. that says she m. a Hull. JAMES, Boston, s. of James the first, a cooper, but at Dorchester m. 19 Nov. 1661, Rebecca, d. of Thomas Jones, had Elizabeth b. 14 Nov. 1662; James, 15 Dec. 1664; Thomas, 2 Jan. 1667; Richard, 7 Apr. 1669; John, 24 Feb. 1672; Esther, 27 Sept. 1674; and Samuel, 20 July 1680; was freem. 1683, and by w. Ann had Rebecca, 19 May 1688. He rem. a. 1710, to Barnstable, there d. a. 1731. JAMES, Portsmouth, R. I. mariner, sold Id. there 1669. JAMES, Warwick, eldest s. of the first James of the same, m. 29 Jan. 1689, Mary, d. of capt. John Fones of Kingstown, had Fones, James, Daniel, Elisha, John, Jeremiah, Samuel, Mercy, Deliverance, and Mary. JOB, Warwick, s. of the first John of the same, m. a Sayles, d. perhaps, of first John, had Job, Christopher, Daniel, Philip, Amy, Phebe, Mary, and Catharine. JOHN, Charlestown, came in the James from London 1632, arr. 12 June, with w. Perseverance and three ch. John, Jacob, Abigail, Sarah Jones, a serv. and Joseph Greene, of whom we may presume that he was a relat. perhaps apprent. Winthrop says the sh. brot. twelve passeng. and in the Custom ho. paper we have the names of two, beside VOL. II. [[302]] the seven here ment. His w. was d. of Rev. Francis Johnson, it is said, a puritan of eminence, who had fled to Amsterdam. She with her h. join. the ch. 29 Mar. 1633, and he was made freem. three days after, call. on the rec. serg. but his milit. distinct. was sunk in the more import. title of ruling elder, the only one Charlestown ch. ever had; was some time town clk. and selectman twelve yrs. begin. in 1646, d. 22 Apr. says the gr.stone or May 1658, aged 65. His will of 21 Apr. of that yr. names w. Joanna, wid. of John Shatswell of Ipswich, and as she had brot. him good est. that had lessened in his hands, he gave her most of his prop. He names in it gr.s. John and Jacob, s. of his s. Jacob, gr.d. Joanna, ch. I suppose, of Richard Shatswell of Ipswich, call. by him s.-in-law, had three ch. at Charlestown, but lost three also, and the surv. were John, Jacob, and Mary, this last b. 1, bapt. 6 Apr. 1634. So much was this name early spread at Malden, that in the remonstrance against the action of the Gen. Ct. upon the case of Rev. Mr. Matthews, their min. sign. by thirty-six females, in 1651, three were nam. Elizabeth and one, Margaret, Green. JOHN, Roxbury, liv. with Daniel Brewer, d. bef. 14 Feb. 1639. JOHN, Providence 1636, may be that surg. who came from Southampton in the James, a. 6 Apr. and arr. at Boston 3 June 1635, had been of Salisbury, in Wilts; brot. w. and five ch. John, b. 1620; Peter; James, 1629; Thomas, 1631; and Mary, prob. older than the last two. He partook largely in the exertions of Gorton and his friends to obtain security for their worldly as well as spirit. rights, and went to negotiate in London in 1644 for Narraganset, of wh. Warwick was the chief settlem. with full success; and d. betw. 28 Dec. 1658, the date of his will, and 7 Jan. next, when it was pro. The w. brot. from Eng. mo. of all the ch. d. 1643, at Conanicut, where she had sought refuge in conseq. of her suffer. when the Mass. forces came to Gorton's planta. and took him and all his adher. prisoners. A sec. w. was Alice Daniels m. in Eng. but ch. is not heard of, nor by third w. Philippa, wh. d. 1687, aged 87. Mary m. James Sweet. The farm on wh. he was bur. is still enjoy. by his descend. JOHN, who came in the Francis from Ipswich, in Co. Suffk. 1634, aged 27, may have been of Salem, d. early, leav. wid. to h. Felt says gr. of ld. was made in 1638, but that diligent writer, I. 516, thot. the husband was of the comp. in the James from Southampton a yr. later. In aid of that conject. perhaps rather slight, is the fact, that six or seven of the passeng. in the more recent sh. bec. inhabs. of Salem. But it is easy to mistake with so common bapt. and surnames. JOHN, Charlestown, s. prob. of first John, b. in Eng. was adm. of the ch. 17 Apr. 1642, and freem. 18 May foll. He digested, from sev. verbal stories, the acco. of settlem. of, the town, wh. has remarkably misled Prince and other inquirers. The first seven [[303]] pages, so far from being a contempo. rec of exact facts, begin with relation, more or less minute, of what took place thirty-five yrs. earlier. See Young's Chron. of Mass. 387. He had been serv. of William Willoughby at Portsmouth, Eng. and after was of his s. Francis our dept.-gov. JOHN, Sandwich 1643, made his will 29 Feb. 1660, d. soon after. JOHN, New Haven, had John, b. 26 Dec. 1651. A wid. G. among early sett. at N. H. was perhaps his mo. JOHN, Kittery 1652, subm. to jurisdict. of Mass. that yr. JOHN, Fairfield 1648, made freem. 1662, had good est. JOHN, Stamford, was rep. 1668-71, and perhaps later. JOHN, a freem. of Mass. 1654, may have been of Malden or Cambridge. JOHN, Warwick, eldest s. of the first John of Providence, b. in Eng. came 1635 with his f. freem. 1655, m. Ann, d. of William Almy, had Peter, William, Job, Samuel, Richard, and four ds. of wh. Ann m. her cous. Thomas Green; one m. prob. Joseph Torry of Newport; Catharine m. Charles Holden; and perhaps Susanna m. John Spencer; was a propr. of Westerly 1661, one of the counc. to Sir Edmund Andros 1687, was major, dep.-gov. 1690-1700, and d. 1708. JOHN, Narragansett 1664, mark. senr. seems to render it necessary to count ano. John to be junr. there at that time, and it may be that one or both went thither from Newport; or he may be the s. perhaps youngest, of the first James wh. m. 16 Feb. 1711, Mary, d. of Increase Allen (but that surname is too common to permit to guess wh.), and had, as the fam. report says, David, James, Increase, Job, beside sev. ds. JOHN, Salem, m. 7 Dec. 1659, Mary Warren, had Abigail, b. 22 Feb. 1661; Mary, 1 Mar. 1664; Sarah, 14 Dec. 1666; Elizabeth 20 Feb. 1668; and John, 28 June 1672. JOHN, Sudbury, a capt. in 1674.

JOHN, Dover or Portsmouth, m. 12 Sept. 1666, Mary Jenkins, d. of Robert, ps, or Henry. JOHN, Cambridge, only s. of Percival of the same, 20 Oct. 1656, Ruth, d. of Edward Michelson, had John, b. 24 July 1657. Nathaniel, 25 Sept. 1658; Percival, b. 29 Mar. bapt. 1 Apr. 1660, H. C. 1680, first in the catal. of this copious name; Ruth, 24 Nov. 1661; Samuel, b. 4, bapt. 10 May 1663; Elizabeth 22 Apr. 1665, bapt. next day; and Edward, 15, bapt. 21 Apr. 1667; as in Mitchell's Reg. appears, and, after the termin. of that, had Thomas, b. 7 Mar. 1669; Jonathan; Bethia, 20 Jan. 1673; Joseph, 24 Oct. 1675, H. C. 1695; Benjamin, 13 Aug. 1677; and Mary; Michelson, also, 14 Mar. who d. inf. 21 Oct. 1681. He succeed. his f.-in-law as marshal of the Col. and d. 3 Mar. 1692, aged 55. His wid. m. Samuel Champney. His s. John was tak. 1681, by the Turks, as we learn from the Diary of Noadiah Russell, sub. 20 Apr. 1682. Edward was a shipmaster, d. 1696, unm. Bethia m. Joseph Hicks, and d. 12 Apr. 1708. JOHN, Malden 1673, mariner, elder br. of James of Boston, freem. 1683, by w. [[304]] Mary had Mary, b. Dec. 1668; Samuel, 1679, beside Elizabeth and Hannah, and d. 22 Mar. 1709. JOHN, Newport, m. Mary, eldest d. of William Jeffrey, is, perhaps, one who was inhab. 1655; and ano. JOHN, adm. at Newport 1668, may have been his s. John, Woburn, m. 3 July 1671, Sarah, d. of John Bateman of Boston, had Sarah, b. 6 June 1672; Samuel, 29 Jan. 1674; John, 6 Jan. 1677; Hannah, 4 Mar. 1679; and perhaps he rem. JOHN, Boston, may have been s. of Ralph, freem. 1690. JOHN, Stow, s. of Jacob the first, d. 1688, unm. JONAS, New London 1694, a shipmaster, of whose fam. I am igno. m. Jane, d. of Alexander Pygan, had Samuel, and perhaps other ch. JOSEPH, Plymouth 1643. JOSEPH, Weymouth, may be he who came 1632 in the James, with first John of Charlestown, by w.

The inv. was of 23 July in that yr. NICHOLAS, is the name of a soldier in Moseley's comp. Dec. 1675. PERCIVAL, Cambridge, br. it is suppos. of Bartholomew the first, came in the Susan and Ellen 1635, aged 32, with w. Ellen, 32, and two serv. freem. 3 Mar. 1636, in the col. list whimsical. pervert. to Passevil, had John, b.

Elizabeth m. 4 Apr. 1656, John Hall of Concord, and d. 14 Feb. 1714. Thomas, in Hist. of Print. I. 235, has confus. I think, the childr. of Bartholomew and Percival. PERCIVAL, Cambridge, gr.s of the preced. the earliest gr. of this fam. [[305]] name at Harv. a preach. d. 10 July 1684.

E. in Young's Chron. of the Pilgr. 299. || RICHARD, Boston, mariner, perhaps ar. co. 1638, but I doubt the rec. as he was not adm. inhab. bef. 1654; by w. Rebecca had Rebecca, b. 7 Aug. 1665; and he d. early in 1672. RICHARD, Warwick, s. perhaps youngest, of the first John of the same, m. a Sayles, had John, Audrey, Amy, Isabel, Eleanor, and Mary.

ROBERT, Hingham, m. Oct. 1666, Elizabeth Nichols. SAMUEL, Cambridge, eldest s. of first Bartholomew, in Eng. came prob. with his f. 1632, tho. a foolish tradit. is in print of his coming with Gov. Dudley, and after reach. N. E. tak. "empty casks to shelter them from the weather;" was freem. 4 Mar. 1635, and made not bred, a printer (as is well seen in Thomas's Hist.), d. 1 Jan. 2, aged 87, or, we may believe, something less. By his first w.

He was town clk. some yrs. capt. of the town milit. thirty yrs. and engag. at the press fifty yrs the greatest work, in conjunct. with Marmaduke Johnson (sent from London by the Soc. for Prop. Gospel), the Ind. Bible. He is spoken of by John Dunton, in "Life and Errors," with gr. kindness. SAMUEL, Warwick, s. of John the first of the same, m. it is said, a Gorton, but that may be a mistake for his uncle Peter; but he had Mary, William, wh. bec. the Gov. of the Col. [[306]] Samuel, and Benjamin. SAMUEL, Boston, s. as Mr. Paige thinks, of John the marshal, of the first Samuel, m. Nov. 1685, Elizabeth d. of capt.

Susanna, but the first w. liv. to 24 Nov. 1715; and he d. 31 Oct. 1724. THOMAS, Ipswich 1648, may have been br. of Henry of the same; but as nothing is ever heard of either, they may be only casual visitors. THOMAS, Malden, had w. Elizabeth wh. d. Aug. 1658, and he m. 5 Sept. 1659, Frances, wid. of Richard Cook, wh. had been wid. of Isaac Wheeler, but prob. by former w. only had ch.

Thomas and br. Thomas Call were exors.; and he d. 25 May foll. but he had m. 19 Aug. 1667, Elizabeth Webb for sec. w. and may have been the freem. of 1670.

HADDEN, or HADDON, FERMAN, Charlestown, perhaps s. of Jared, Gerard, or whatever his name was, of Cambridge, by w. (to wh. Bellingham, Dept.-Gov. m. him 5 May 1657, but by his carelessness, or that of the Reg. the name is blank, yet in the reg. of b. her bapt. name is found), Elizabeth had Sarah, b. 15 Dec. 1657; Samuel, 27 Feb. 1659; and perhaps more. JARED, JERAD, GARRETT, or GERARD, Cambridge 1632, came, prob. in the fleet with Winthrop for he is among the first hundred mem. of the Boston ch. adm. prior to any sec. arriv. freem. 14 May 1634, a propr. of Salisbury 1640, had w.

C. 1647, may have been s. of the preced. but where his after life was spent, or when he d. is unkn. Conject. that he went to Eng. is plausible. A Catharine H. is witness to the will of Thomas Bittlestone at C. and may have been first w. or even d. of Jared. HADLEY, GRORGE, Ipswich 1639, liv. in 1678, says Felt. GEORGE, Rowley 1668, was perhaps the same or s. of the preced. JOHN, Gloucester, 1683. SAMUEL, Amesbury, s. of George, sw. alleg. Dec 1677.

John Hale). This blunder, that arose from similar names would have been avoid. by that most dilig. antiquary, had he consider. the times of the two ms. as the wid. got her sec. h. when Hale was not five yrs. old. He had Rebecca, b. 28 Apr. 1666; and Robert, 3 Nov. 1668, H. C. 1686; was ord. 20 Sept. 1667, after preach. three yrs. to the new formed congr.

Most luckily, somebody of Wenham made charge of that crime upon his sec. w. then big with her last ch. and his eyes were opened to the monstrous delusion, as with great moderation and dignity is set forth in a tract published by him a few years after. See a valua. Memoir 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VII. 255. He d. 15 May 1700. Of his ch. Robert was a promin. man, author, I think, of those verses on Nathaniel Mather, found at the end of Lib.

No little confusion, after large scrutiny, exists as to the men of this name, so that it may be there was one John at Barnstable at the same time there was one at Charlestown, but it is not prob.; at least it is certain, that the ch. rec. of B. proves, that s. of John, there bapt. were Joseph, 3 July 1642; Benjamin, 14 July 1644, d. in few days; Nathaniel, 8 Feb. 1646; Gershom, 5 Mar. 1648; William, 8 June 1651; Benjamin, again, 29 May 1653; and Elisha.

Reg. V. 85, where one, if not two, of the first four, we see, is manifestly wrong. THOMAS, Hingham 1636, younger br. of the first William, b. at Lavenham, Co.

His will names all these ch. Elizabeth wh. m. 17 Aug. 1659, George Woodward, Thomas, and Nathaniel, all then m. and Sarah, prob. w. of Nathaniel Stedman, as dec. but her ch.

Thomas, b. 11 July 1656; d. 10 Dec. 1655. His will of 21 Nov. preced. speaks of his est. in Lavenham, Suff'k. The wid. d. 24 Mar. 1657, and he will was pro. 8 Apr. next. THOMAS, Newton, s. of the first Thomas, m. 17 Dec. 1662, Elizabeth d. of Isaac Stedman, had Elizabeth b. 3 Nov. 1664; Thomas, 16 Dec. 1666; Isaac, 20 Dec. 1668; Nathaniel, 3 Feb. 1671; John, 30 Apr. 1674; and Eleazur, 13 Nov. 1677; and d. of smallpox, 20 Oct. foll. His wid. d. 1715. THOMAS, Watertown, posthum. s. of Thomas the s. of William, had, I think, been impress. for serv. in the war of 1676, on an expedit. and fined £4. for not going, as appears in his petitn. in wh. he declares, he had done much, m. 21 Aug. 1678, Elizabeth Noyes, who d. 4 Apr. 1679; and he m. 6 Dec. 1679, Sarah Pickard, had Hannah, b. 15 Nov. 1680, who d. at 11 yrs.; Sarah, 20 Jan. 1683; Thomas, 17 Nov. 1685; Elizabeth 12 May 1688; David, bapt. 23 Nov. 1690; Nathaniel, 25 July 1697; and Jonathan, bapt. on same day; was freem. 1690, and progenit. of all the Hammonds of Watertown and Waltham, it is said. WILLIAM, of Mass. was k. by the Ind. in Pequot war. 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 130, 157. Scrupulous inquiry will, prob. lead to belief, that an error of near. 40 yrs. is here seen, and that the suffer. was one of the very first victims of Philip's war. WILLIAM, Watertown, perhaps as early as 1632, freem. 25 May 1636, had good est. d. 8 Oct. 1662, aged, says the rec. a. 94. But the Reg. in Eng. of his bapt. 30 Oct. 1575, when he could be very few days old, for his f. Thomas m. Rose Trippe on 14 May 1573, and the first ch. Elizabeth was bapt. 1 Apr. 1574, proves that he was a. 87. He m. 9 June 1605, Elizabeth Payne, sis. of William, had William, bapt. 20 Sept. 1607; Ann, 19 Nov. 1609, d. soon; John, 5 Dec. 1611; Ann, again, 14 July 1616; and Thomas, 17 Sept. 1618. His will of 1 July 1662, names w. Elizabeth s. John, gr.s. Thomas, s. of dec. Thomas, d. Elizabeth w. of Samuel House of Cambridge, and her four ch. d. Barnes, and d. Sarah Smith with her s. Adam. The w. had come had in the Francis from Ipswich, 1634, aged 47, with ch. Elizabeth 15; Sarah, 10; and John, 7; and she d. 1669, or one acco. has it, 14 Sept. 1670, in 90th yr. Six or seven yrs. of exagger. may here be allowed for, knowing that the age of her h. was equally extend. beyond the truth. WILLIAM, Lynn, is by Lewis named of 1636, and d. next yr. WILLIAM, Wells 1656, or earlier, a man of conseq. gr. juror, next yr. clk. of the writs, and commissr. for small causes until 1679; had Jonathan, and Joseph, perhaps other ch. but those outliv. him. He d. 1702, as his gr.s. Joseph wrote, in a letter of 24 Mar. 1733, says, also, that he told him he was b. 1597. See Geneal. reg. IX. 312. The writer's f. Joseph, was b. 1647, being the younger, and hims. was b. 1677, so that he could hardly mistake the yr. [[348]] of the old man's d. when he calls him 105 yrs. old. Whether equal confid. should be yielded to the date of his b. depends on the ages of the relater and the hearer. If the one were too young to note such matters with precision, or the other too aged to possess exact recollect. some deduct. perhaps of ten yrs. may be justif. However the prob. is far greater of the extreme age, than the story giv. by Col. Whipple in Geneal. Reg. V. 246, embarrass. with double absurdity, making the venerable Hammond to be of Monmouth's party, 1685, when he was 88 yrs. old, if the gr.s. report be correct, and he had been 30 yrs. at our E. settlem. as also in mak. his br.-in-law Nicholas Frost of the royal party in opposition to the Duke of Monmouth, whereas Frost was in his grave at Kittery twenty-two yrs. bef. the illegit. slip rebel. against his precious uncle. Such is the jack-a-lantern made of chronology preserv. by venerat. traditions. WILLIAM, who was k. by the Ind. 27 June 1675, the fourth day of Philip's war, may have been of Rehoboth, for there one William had Elizabeth b. 24 Sept. 1661; but this man was of the troop of capt. Prentiss, wh. mu.st, we suppose, have chiefly been composed of volunt. of Cambridge and the neighb. town of Dedham. HAMPTON, THOMAS, Sandwich, d. early. By his will, of Mar. 1638, nam. only his min. Leverich, and some neighb. it may seem that he had no w. or ch. HAMUCK, THOMAS, Dover, was there tax. 1666 to 72, says Mr. Quint, but he tells no more.

WILLIAM, Duxbury 1639, m. 1641, Hannah Souther, was of Plymouth 1643, but rem. to Boston 1649, here had William, b. 5, bapt. 11 Feb. of that yr. and prob. d. Feb. 1650, for inv. of very good est. of his was taken 21 of that mo. He had three ch. bef. Hannah H. m. 24 Oct. 1656, Francis Johnson, wh. I presume to be the Salem early sett. At P. he had the prefix of respect. Sometimes it is writ. Henbury. HANCOCK, ANTHONY, Wrentham, had been serv. of William Sumner of Dorchester, ment. in his will of 1681, by w. Sarah, who d. 17 Nov. 1700, had prob. Henry; Anthony, b. 26 Feb. 1685; and perhaps by w. Ruth had Mary, 19 Dec. 1701; William, 1 Mar. 1703; Hannah, 3 July 1706; and Silence, 16 June 1709. JOHN, New Haven 1679, a propr. in 1685, who is not kn. to have had issue, d. 10 Mar. 1712. He may have been the man to wh. 1663, grant of five hundred acres in Carolina was made by the patentees for discovery there. NATHANIEL, Cambridge, by w. Joan had Mary, b. 3 Nov. 1634; Sarah, 3 Mar. 1636; Nathaniel, 18 Dec. 1638; John, who d. 2 Apr. 1643, prob. not 2 yrs. old; Elizabeth 1 Mar. 1645; and Lydia, 5 Apr. or 2 July 1646; and he d.

He had, also, Ann and Abigail, b. and d. 1672. John was first min. of Lexington, ord. 2 Nov. 1698, but had first preach. at Wells and York, and was f. of Thomas, the most wealthy merch. of Boston, found. of the Professorsh. of Orient. lang. at the Univ. as well as of Rev.

He was a merch. call. taylor on adm. of our ch. 25 Dec. 1647; perhaps s. of first treasr. sold his est. 1657, to br. Thomas Scottow, went home,and in 1677 was of London, but directing his s. John in import. operat. My suspicion is strong, that his name being sometimes spoken quick, became Harrod in some ears. JOHN', Boston, s. prob. of the preced. by w. Hannah had John, b. 7 June 1677. JOHN, New London, s. of George, bef. ment. had John, who d. 1726, without issue, and was the last of the name at that place. NATHANIEL, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had William, b. 28 Mar. 1665.

Others of the name were at Chelsea, and it has been wide spread. Three of the name are among gr. of H. C. bef. 1791. HASKELL, or HASCALL, *BENJAMIN, Gloucester, s. of William, m. 21 Nov. 1677, Mary, d. of Thomas Riggs, had Eleanor, b. 26 Aug. 1678; and Hannah, 7 Dec. 1679; beside s.

In his will, six days bef. he names the w. and his four ch. also s.-in-law William Buttrick, wh. may, therefore, be presum. to be h. of his d.

C. 20 Sept. 1699; [[375]] was deac. and often selectman, and d. 5 Aug. 1705. Notice of the sad error in Cambridge Epit. p. 35, that he was s. of John, and of his w. Ann Meen, must be tak. to save the deac. from m. with his own sis. Fourteen of this name had been, in 1834, says Farmer, gr. at N. E. coll. of wh. thirteen at Harv. HATCH, BENJAMIN, Barnstable, s. of Jonathan, m. 17 Jan. 1678, Mary Hamblen, d. perhaps of the first James, had Abigail, b. 4 Aug. 1679; Mary, 3 Mar. 1682; Nathaniel, 3 Feb. 1685; Benjamin, 17 Oct. 1686; John, 16 Feb. 1690; Elizabeth 25 Mar. 1692; Meletiah, 4 Oct. 1693; Timothy, 19 Oct. 1695; Hannah, 7 May 1698; and Solomon, 1704.

Mary, d. of John Hewes, had fourteen ch. between 1658 and 78, says Deane, wh. names the s. Jeremiah; John; Israel; Joseph; Thomas; and James, this last b. 4 May 1674; was an active citizen, selectman, rep. 1675, 6, 9, and 80. JONATHAN, Barnstable, only s. of Thomas, b. at Sandwich. Eng. may have been at Salem 1640, m. 11 Apr. 1646, Sarah Rowley, had Mary, b. 14 July 1648; Thomas, 1 Jan. 1650; Jonathan, 17 May 1652; Joseph, 7 Mar. 1654; Benjamin, 7 Sept. 1655; Nathaniel, 5 June 1657; Samuel, 11 Oct. 1659; Moses, 4 Mar. 1662, or 7 Mar. 1663; and Sarah, 21 or 23 Mar. 1665; Mark, 27 Apr. 1667; and Lydia, 16 May 1669, the last four at Yarmouth. He built, bef. 1666, it is said, ho. in what is now Falmouth where his eighth ch. Moses was b. by Falmouth, rec. 23 Mar. 1665. JONATHAN, Barnstable or Yarmouth, s. of the preced. m. 4 Sept. 1676, Abigail, as Falmouth rec. has it, but by Barnstable rec. 4 Dec. 1676, Elizabeth Walker, had Jonathan, b. 5 Jan. 1678; Sarah, 17 May 1682; Mary, 24 June 1684; Nathan, 1693; and Ebenezer, 29 Nov. 1696. JOSEPH, Falmouth, m. 7 Dec. 1683, Amy Allen, had Lydia, b. 13 Jan. 1685; Amy 4 July 1687; Joseph, 3 Aug. 1689; Ichabod, 21 Oct. 1691; Ruth, 7 Nov. 1693; Joanna, 2 June 1696; Elizabeth 6 Nov. 1697; Bethia, 25 Jan. 1700; Ebenezer, 26 Mar. 1702; and Barnabas, 4 Feb. 1704. MOSES, Falmouth, s. of Jonathan of Barnstable, m. after Jan. 1710, Hannah, wid. of lieut. Joshua Bangs, d. of John Scudder, but the dispar. of their ages makes me suppose she was sec. w. PHILIP, York, freem. 1652. SAMUEL, was volunteer in the Pequot war, 1637, says Deane; but he tel}s no more. Perhaps he vas of Duxbury 1684. SAMUEL, Falmouth, s. of the first Jonathan, had Eleazer, b. 23 Sept. 1694; Samuel, 28 Feb. 1696; James, 23 Aug. 1697; and Lydia, 30 May 1699. THOMAS, Dorchester, freem. 14 May 1634, rem. to Scituate, there d. a. 1646; but he had prob. gone to Barnstable bef. 1643, and may have ret. left Jonathan; William; Thomas; Alice, who m. 1657, Jonas Pickels, and Hannah, bapt. 1646, perhaps posthum. THOMAS, Barnstable, had w. Grace, and prob. d. 1661, a young man. His inv. of 27 May in that yr. was very small. THOMAS, Scituate, s. of the first Thomas, m. 1662, Sarah, d. of Rhodolphus Ellms, had eleven ch. named in his will, Thomas, the eldest s.; Sarah; Lydia; Keturah; Rhodolphus, b. 26 Dec. 1674; Hannah; Mary; Joseph, Margaret; Abigail; and Jeremiah, b. 1684; but the order, except first and last here giv. is unkn. THOMAS, Falmouth, eldest s. of the first Jonathan m. 22 Jan. or Feb. 1679, it is said had sev. ch. of wh. only Jonathan, b. 9 Apr. 1693; and Nathaniel, 1698; are ment. in Geneal Reg. XIV. 198. WALTER, Scituate, s. of Elder William, b. in Eng. m. 6 May 1650, Elizabeth d. Thomas Holbrook of Weymouth, had Hannah, b. 13 Mar. 1651; Samuel, 22 Dec. 1653; Jane, 7 Mar. 1656; Antipas, 1658; and Bethia, 31 Mar. 1661. He took sec. w. 5 Aug. 1674. WILLIAM, Scituate, perhaps as early as 1633, but if so, he went home, and, prob first came in 1635, brot. in the Hercules from Sandwich, in Kent, w. Jane, five ch. and six serv. as is shown in the Hist. of Sandwich, Eng. He was first rul. elder of the 2d ch. found. in 1644, for William Witherell, after long agitations foll. the rem. of Lathrop to Barnstable; was br. of first Thomas, prob. and d. 6 Nov. 1651. His wid. Jane m. 1653, Elder Thomas King. But we [[376]] count his ch. William; Walter; Ann, who m. 2 Nov. 1643, lieut. James Torrey, the town clk.; Hannah, who m. 6 Dec. 1648, Samuel Utley; Jane, wh. m. John Lovell of Weymouth, had John named in his gr.f.'s will; Jeremiah, bef. ment. and this number is one more than he brot. from Eng. in 1635; so that I infer he had brot. over, at a former time, the eldest, and left him or her here, while he went for the rest of the fam. Besides I find a Lydia H. m. 19 Dec. 1650, at Barnstable, Henry Taylor. WILLIAM, Scituate, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. m. 13 May 1652, Susanna, d. of Anthony Annable, had Lydia, b. 28 Apr. 1653, d. in 4 days; one other of the same name, 7 Jan. 1655; beside one of more s. perhaps b. at Swanzey, whither he rem. and Deane says was liv. there 1690. He was, prob. the soldier in Philip's war. Lydia m. 1678 John Barstow of Scituate. WILLIAM, Scituate, perhaps s. of Thomas, had w. Abigail, nam. in his will of 13 Nov. 1653, to be extrix. and d. Phebe, but no other ch. is ment. in the will; d. in Virginia, and his inv. here was made 7 Apr. 1657. This is not consistent with Deane's acco. for he makes him to have been a soldier in Philip's war, and had gr. of land, 1676; besides calling his ch. Mary, b. 1652; Lydia, 1654; Phebe; and Hannah. Very likely the confusion is not discoverable without diligent comparison betw. diff. classes of rec. WILLIAM, New London, a. 1690. Four of this name had been gr. in 1834, at Harv. three at Yale, and six at other N.E. coll. HATHAWAY, or HADAWAY, ABRAHAM, Taunton, m. 28 Aug. 1684, Rebecca Wilbore, d. perhaps of Shadrach. ARTHUR, Marshfield 1643, m. 20 Nov. 1653, Sarah Cook, perhaps d. of Rev. John, had John, b. 17 Sept. 1652; and Sarah, 28 Feb. 1656; ten yrs. later was at Dartmouth, and took o. of fidel. 1684, there. *JOHN, Barnstable, perhaps came at 18 yrs. in the Blessing, 1635, from London, m. 1 July 1656, Hannah Hallet, had s. b. Oct. 1647, d. soon; John, 16 Aug. 1658; Hannah, May 1662; and Edward, 10 Feb. 1664; rem. to Taunton, of wh. he was rep. 1680-4 inclus. and 1691. JOHN, Dartmouth, s. of Arthur, was a townsman 1686. JOSEPH, Taunton, freem. 1657, was perhaps br. of the first John. Thirteen of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at the N.E. coll. of wh. only one at Harv. HATCHETT, WILLIAM, found by Felt in Mass. 1641; but perhaps only a transient visitor. HATHERLY, ARTHUR, Plymouth 1660. Deane. GEORGE, Boston, by w. Abigail had George, b. 1676. 20 or 28 Oct. both being given in rec. THOMAS, Boston, by w.

His name was sound. Howard, tho. the spelling was unchanged, and to distinguish him from John Howard, he was, says Mitchell, called "John of the Plain." JOHN, Concord, s. of George, m. 2 June 1671, Ann White, had Mary b. 5 Dec. 1671, d. soon; George, 20 July 1673; Judith, 21 Apr 1675; Mary, 13 May 1677; John, 7 July 1680; Ann, 3 Aug. 1682; and Sarah, 16 June 1687; was freem. 1690; his w. d. 26 May 1718; and he d. 22 Nov. after.

He was gr. gr.f. of Lemuel, H. C. 1768, who was [[393]] f. of George, H. C. 1809, one of the disting. Professors in that Univ. Perhaps this number of ch. was not all b. of that w. Sarah, w h. had, I think, been w. of Samuel Davis, and bore him three ch. There was in the land only one Richard Thayer, wh. so early had d. Sarah, and she m. S. D. of Boston, where her f. liv. JOSEPH, Concord, s. of George, m. 26 Oct. 1665, Hannah, d. of James Hosmer, had Joseph, b. 17 Aug. 1666; Mary, 27 Sept. 1667; John, 1669, d. young; Hannah, 14 Jan. 1671; Dorothy, 2 June 1674; his w. d. 15 Dec. 1675; and he m. 23 Mar. 1677, Elizabeth Treadwell, had Ebenezer, 22 July 1678; James, 3 Mar. 1681; Simeon, 18 June 1683; and Abiel, a d. 17 Sept. 1691. JOSEPH, Bridgewater, s. of Thomas, a deac. had three ws. By the first, Alice, d. of Elder William Brett, had Joseph, b. 1673; and by the third, Hannah, d. of Experience Mitchell, had Mary, 1685; Thomas, 1687; Edward, 1689; Hannah,1691; Susanna, 1695; Peter, 1699; and Abigail, 1702. NATHANIEL, Bridgewater, br. of the preced. m. Hannah, d. of deac. John Willis, had Nathaniel, b. 1664; John; Thomas; Samuel; Elisha; Patience; and perhaps other ds. NICHOLAS, Salem 1643, rem. prob. to Boston, and by w. Elizabeth had Richard, b. 22 Aug. 1665; Rebecca, 19 Nov. 1666; and John, 29 June 1668. RICHARD, Salem, was of Co. Bedford, came with Higginson 1629. ROBERT, Windsor, a miller, m. Lydia, d. of the first Thomas Kilborne, had Tabitha, b. 1 Jan. 1647; Rebecca, 17 Aug. 1648; Esther, 8 June 1651; Lydia, 13 Jan. 1655; beside three other ds. most of wh. d. young; and Ephraim, 11 Jan. 1657; rem. to Northampton 1659, but after some yrs. went back to W. there d. 23 Aug. 1684. His wid. wh. came with her f. in the Increase 1635, test. in 1684, that she was 70 yrs. old, only slight exagger. Rebecca m. a. 1665, John Spencer of Haddam. This fam. is usually called Howard. ROBERT, Boston, a Notary. See Howard. SAMUEL, Gloucester, m. 2 Mar. 1641, the first on the rec. a d. of Henry Felch, had Samuel, b. 4 Jan. 1642; and John, 24 Dec. 1643. SAMUEL, Boston, by w. Isabel had James, b. 16 Dec. 1645; Samuel, 4 May 1646, by perverse rec.; and Peter, 4 Aug. 1654; and he, or more prob. the preced. was of Mendon 1672. SAMUEL, Charlestown, came in the Elizabeth 1635, aged 22, had first w. Sarah, wh. unit. with the ch. 9 July 1648, and I suppose sat down in that pt. wh. bec. Malden, had Martha, b. 15 Mar. 1653; Mary, Aug. 1654; Sarah, Feb. 1656; and Elizabeth 25 Sept. 1658, d. young. It is said, he had sec. w. Susanna Wilkinson, m. 10 Mar. 1670. In the will of Elizabeth H. wid. I find ground for conject. that she was relict of this man. It has date of May 1686, and was pro. 5 May of next yr. and gives d. Abigail the part of movables that came to her from est. of her first h. Oakes, with proviso, that, if it amount to above £20., she shall give 20 sh. to w. of Samuel Hayward. That d. Abigail (whose mo. Elizabeth Hayward, formerly w. of Thomas Oakes of Cambridge, had been, Dec. 1667, dism. to Malden), [[394]] was, as the Reg. of matchless Mitchell tells, bapt. 23 Sept. 1666, in his ch. At C. he had, also, Richard, bapt. 22 July 1660; Elizabeth 9 June 1661; Deborah, 6 July 1662; Nathaniel, 5 June 1664. But these were not ch. of Elizabeth who had been wid. of Oakes, and was, after 1662, wid. of Seth Sweetser, when she m. Hayward, and bore him Abigail, wh. I suppose, m. 31 Oct. 1688, John Upham. A Samuel H. perhaps s. of the preced. was in London, with John Balston, and John Herring, dealing with Judith, wid. of Stephen Winthrop, in May 1687, and resolv. to emb. for New Eng. The name is on some rec. written, as sound. Howard. But I am almost certain that f. and s. are confus. or some other confus. appears. SIMEON, Concord, s. of George, m. 7 Mar. 1687, Elizabeth perhaps d. of the first Jonathan Danforth, had Elizabeth b. 28 Feb. 1689; Jonathan, 16 Nov. 1690; Simeon, 24 Apr. 1693; and Mary, 19 Mar. 1696. THOMAS, Cambridge, came in the Hercules 1635,from Sandwich, being tailor of Aylesford, Co. Kent, with w. Susanna, and five ch. but he had perhaps been here as early as 1632, coming with Winslow in the William and Francis, and satisf. with prospects, went home to bring them; sett. at Duxbury bef. 1638, prob. at Bridgewater 1651, being of the first proprs. 1645, was freem. of the col. 1646, had Thomas, Nathaniel, John, Joseph, Elisha, Mary, w. of Edward Mitchell, and Martha, w. of John Howard; but of these we are unable to discrim. which were b. in Eng. or whether even he were that Kentish man, or not. He d. 1681. Elisha never was m. made his will 1703. Descend. of Thomas are more num. says Mitchell, than those of any other inhab. THOMAS, Bridgewater, s. of the preced. a valua. officer, d. 15 Aug. 1698, leav. w. Sarah, d. of William Ames of Braintree, but no ch. THOMAS, Enfield, had Benjamin, b. 1686, but bef. had Nathan, John, and sev. ds. was "aged a. 50," in 1693, so that it is prob. that he was b. on this side of the Atlantic, d. 1700. * WILLIAM, Hampton, freem. 13 May 1640, had been of Charlestown in 1637, was lieut. and rep. 1641-5. WILLIAM, Braintree 1648, had w. Margery, and sev. ch. of wh. Jonathan is the only one to be traced exactly, was drown. 1659. WILLIAM, Swanzey, by w. Sarah had Jonathan, b. 8 Apr. 1672; Margery, 10 Sept. 1673. Fifteen of this last name had, in 1850, been gr. at Harv. Great skill will often be baffled in reconcil. the various spell. with the deductions of fams. from Hayward, Haywood, Heywood, and the predominant Howard. HAYWOOD, ANTHONY, Boston 1671, had w. Margaret, s. Powell, b. 19 Oct. 1674, d. young; and Powell, again, 18 Nov. 1679; was one of the found. of the first Episc. ch. d. 10 Oct. 1689. Gov. Andros, less than a mo. bef. his imprisonm. authoriz. him and others to receive volunt. contrib. for the edifice. [3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 84.] JOHN, postmaster. See Hayward.

THOMAS, Boston 1635, ship carpenter, freem. 25 May 1636, rem. in few yrs. to R. I. signed the cov. of citiz. 24 Jan. 1639, and is on the list of 1655, but in 1656 was at Newtown, L. I. Thence he soon came back to Portsmouth, R. I. there d. 1669. His will of that date names w. Martha; ds. Elizabeth w. of George Laighton; Hannah, w. of Stephen Wilcox of Misquamacuck, that pt. of the Narraganset now Westerly; and Martha, w. of Ichabod Potter of Portsmouth, beside s. Robert, and gr.s. Thomas Hazard. Tradit. in the fam. is, that he came from Wales, bring. s. Robert, a. 4 yrs. old. Six of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Brown Univ. and of two gr. at N. J. one was Ebenezer, the assiduous antiquary, who d. at Philad. 1817, aged 73. Hist. Coll. of R. I. III. 312.

Experience, d. of Gabriel Mede, m. 4 Dec. 1663, had Experience, b. 15 June 1665, and Elizabeth 15 Apr. 1668. This name may as well be Eaton.

NATHANIEL, Boston 1634, freem. 25 May 1636, by w. Elizabeth had Eleazur, bapt. 2 Oct. 1636; perhaps Leah; Nathaniel, [[400]] 1 Sept. 1639; and Eliz, 8 Oct. 1643; he d. early, and his wid. m. perhaps, William Pell, again was wid. and m.

Mary had Sarah, b. 14 June 1687; James, 25 Mar. 1690; and Abigail, 3 May 1695, perhaps others earlier. NATHANIEL, New Haven, a cordwainer, perhaps s. or br. of James, a propr. 1685. The name has been prevalent in that vicin. HEDGE, ELISHA, Plymouth, was a serg. 1671. ELISHA, Yarmouth, s. of William, d. 1732, aged 71, leav. eldest ch. John, who, by Thankful, d. of Barnabas, b. Lathrop of Barnstable, had Barnabas, H. C. 1724, f. of Barnabas, b. 1740, who was f. of the late Hon. Barnabas, H. C. 1783. JOHN, Lynn, 1634, then aged a. 24. STEPHEN, Fairfield 1670. WILLIAM, Lynn, freem. 14 May 1634, rem. to Sandwich, thence to Yarmouth, had Elizabeth b. 21 May 1646; Mary, 1648; beside Abraham, Sarah, Elisha, William, John, Mary, and Lemuel, all liv. to be nam. in his will; but this may not be the order of their b. His sec. w. was Blanch, and had been wid. Hull. Elizabeth m. 4 Jan. 1666, Jonathan Barnes; Mary m. a Sturgis; and Sarah m. a Matthews. He d. 1670, when some of these ch. were young. His will of 30 June in that yr. ment. that his w. to wh. he gave only twelve pence, had brok. covenant and separat. from him. A soldier in the Pequot war, with this surname, whose name of bapt. is not found, either in Vincent, Underhill, or Mason, the narrators, wh. serv. with him, is very well ment. and the first writer (who prob. spoke with confidence), calls him a gent. of Northamptonsh. WILLIAM, Bristol, perhaps s. of the preced. was liv. 1689, with only one ch. One William Hedges of Hampton, L. I. 1650 may have been freem. of Mass. 1634. Ten of this name had been gr. at harv. in 1834. HEDGER, THOMAS, Warwick, a resid. for many yrs. of wh. by rec. no trace of fam. is seen. HEDGES, TRISTRAM, Boston, m. 20 Dec. 1657, Ann Nickerson, d. of William, had Grace, b. 20 Aug. 1659. WILLIAM, Taunton 1648, freem. 1652, m. Mary d. of Henry Andrews of the same, had John, and Henry b. a. 1652; d. 2 Apr. 1654. His wid. made her will soon after, I suppose, for she desires Peter Pitts, "in case I make him my h." to perform its conditions in favor of the ch. THis name is print. in Geneal. Reg. V. 261, without the finals. wh. it had in two pages preced. But I doubt the correctness of either form, and think it should be HODGES, as Baylies has given it. HEDLEY, JOHN, Newport, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 3 Apr. 1674; Elizabeth 11 Feb. 1676; John, 8 Mar. 1678; and Sarah. HEFERMAN, WILLIAM, Wickford 1674, when also Robert, Samuel, and William, jr. perhaps his s. were all there. [[401]] HEIFOR, ANDREW, was at Kittery, 1640; but in what Christian land he got his name, is unkn. HELDRED, WILLIAM, Ipswich, 1637. Felt. Perhaps the same as Eldred. HELE. See Healey. HELMAN, JOHN, Nantucket, had Richard, b. 7 Oct. 1682. HELME, CHRISTOPHER, Exeter, 1639, rem. to Mass. 1643, thence to Warwick, next yr. with the Gortonists, there d. bef. Dec. 1650, leav. wid.

HEMPSTEAD, JOSHUA, New London, s. of Robert, by w. Elizabeth, d. of Greenfield Larrabee, had Elizabeth b. 1672; Mary, 1674; Phebe, 1675; Joshua, 1678; and Hannah; for wh. in his will, 1683, he made provision, but liv. many yrs. after, had two more ch. Patience and Lucy, so that, after his d. 1700, dispute about the will arose. ROBERT, New London 1645, one of four inhab. to assist. Winthrop in sett. of the place, had Mary, b. 26 Mar. 1647, first ch. b. in [[402]] that town; Joshua, 16 June 1649; and Hannah, 11 Apr. 1652; and Caulkins, 272, tells, that he d. June 1655; and that his wid. m. Andrew Lester. But when, 310, that. dilig. writer makes her to be d. of Isaac Willey, my confidence is shak. especial. when a romant. connex. is by tradit. attempt. to be fix. by ano. union between the Lester and the Willey. Mary m. 1665, Robert Douglas; and Hannah m. Abel Moore. HENBURY, ARTHUR, Hartford, was bur. 1 Aug. 1697, buy many yrs. bef. he was of Windsor and Simsbury, m. 1670, Lydia Hill, had Mary, Hannah, Elizabeth and Susanna, of wh. at his d. Elizabeth was 17 yrs. and Susanna, 15. Admin. of his est. was by wid. Martha, who m. John Shepard. All the ds. m. but the name failed. HENCHMAN, or HINCHMAN, || DANIEL, Boston, sch.master 1666, freem. 1672, ar. co. 1675 perhaps, by w. Sarah had (beside Richard, Hezekiah, and Nathaniel) Susanna, b. 7 June 1667; and William, 28 July 1669, wh. d. young; and by w.

There is a strange inconsistency between this acco. verified by the highest authority, both rec. and fam. and that of Lincoln in h is Worcester, p. 44, where the s. Nathaniel of capt. Daniel is represent. as a bachelor of very eccentric or foolish notions and acts. Perhaps the traditions and the gr.stone belong to the s. Richard. RICHARD, Boston, s. of Daniel, perhaps the eldest, a sch.master, was of Yarmouth, in 1686, went back to B. soon after, was there in 1706, soon after went to Worcester, there d.

HIGBY, EDWARD, New London 1645, perhaps w. of John, may have gone a. 1656, but it is uncert. whether to Hartford, whence he came, or to Jamaica, L.

Of this name were more fams. at Eastham in 1801, than of any, exc. Smith. HIGGINSON, FRANCIS, Salem, came in the Talbot, 1629 with w. and eight ch. of wh. Mary d. on the passage, 19 May, at 4 yrs. old. He was, it is said, s. of Rev. John, b. 1588, bred at Jesus Coll. Cambr. where be took his A. B. 1609, but was of St. John's when his A. M. was given 1613, tho. Mather asserts he was of Emanuel; for sev. yrs. was min. of one of the parish chh. in Leicester; but his growing, dislike of conformity prevented him first from advancement, and next from comfort at home, so that he gladly accept. the desire by the Gov. and Comp. of Mass. for his emigr. hither. He was ord. 6 Aug. 1629, at S. and d. in the same mo. next yr. A valua. memoir, writ. with his usual diligence by Rev. J. B. Felt, is one of the best articles in Geneal. Reg. See VI. 105. In it the writer assumes the position, as he had done in the Annals, I. 69-74, that Higginson was the author of "General Considerations for the Plantation in N. E. with an answer to sev. object." The admir. composit. of that tract is not needed to enhance the amiable character of H. and perhaps Felt, on p. 630 of his Ann. II. allows us to infer, that the Considerations were publ. with H.'s letters after reach. N. E. contrary to his first position, that he publ. them a. the time that he eng. to embark for America. Differing, from Dr. Young, he records Gov. Hutchinson's phrase in the Coll. 27, as a "positive declaration," and sensitively expresses his belief of it; yet surely no imputation on the integr. of Gov. H. can be deduced from the lang. of Dr. Y. Little criticism is sufficient to decide the main point. "Reasons," good eno. without doubt, Higginson had, and he was not bound to conceal them; but if comparison of style should leave any hesitation from the internal evidence, that the "General Considerations" came from another mind, the proof externally is abundant. The pamphlet was not issued in London bef. Oct. 1629; the letter of Higginson, 24 July at Salem, going with Endicott's despatches, received at a meeting 19 Sept. acknowledg. [[413]] by the Gov. and Comp. 16 Oct. shows us that if the Reasons of Higginson accomp. his letter, it was ano. paper than that circulat. in MS. during the month bef. Had it been print. Gov. Winthrop would not have taken the pains to write it off for his son to show his uncle and aunt down in the country. See Appx. A. 28 in Winthrop Hist. I. Ed. 1853. After Gov.

Nothing, could be more timely than this tract, prepar. by Winthrop prob. in consult. with Rev. leaders, White, Davenport, and others, and not unlikely with previous adv. of Cradock; and he wh. had not been ment. in the rec. from the grant of the chart. in Mar. 1629 to 15 Oct. when he first attend. a meet. was five days after chosen Gov. tho. such import. men as Sir Richard Saltonstall, Isaac Johnson, and John Humfrey, wh. were all in the Counc. of Assist. from the May bef. and of equal est. with him, were in the nominat. for that office.

He may have been at Salem, and had gr. of ld. 1650, and of Beverly 1659, where he was among the princ. men 1681 and 2; or the man of this name at Lynn 1655, or of Dover 1649-72, or of Medfield 1656. At least, we kn. that the Medfield man, by w. Hannah, had Abigail, b. 2 Feb. 1659. So common was this name, and one was freem. 1646. This last by w. Hannah had Abigail, b. 2 Feb. 1659; Samuel; John, 14 Mar. 1661; Mary, 28 Oct. 1662; Eliezur, 29 June 1664; Johnson, 1666; and Ebenezer; and d. 23 Jan. 1718, leav. wid.

But the will of 11 Apr. 1660, pro. 30 June 1664, makes it clear, that, besides John and Mary, nine younger ch. were then liv. JOHN, Rowley 1641, or earlier. JOHN, New Haven 1643, br. of Robert, took o. of fidel. 1644, had no fam. and d. 1647. JOHN, Guilford, had perhaps been at Branford 1646, 8, and later; but after rem. had w. Frances, wh. d.

Dorothy had Dorothy, b. 1696; Jonathan, 1699; David, 1702; Sarah, 1706; and Thankful, 1710. * JOSEPH, Charlestown 1638, was from Malden, in Essex, Eng. where, and not Shrewsbury, in the other side of the island, as had been said, he was a woollen draper, having large transact. at London, had br. John of Barnham, wh. is a. 10 ms. from Malden, wh. may have come over or d. sev. yrs. earlier, with w. Rose, wh. is thot. to have been sis. of Presid. Dunster, adm. of the ch. 2 Feb. 1640, yet not freem. until 1645, tho. he was selectman the yr. preced. rep. for Malden 1647, 50 to 6, speaker of the ho. in the earliest yr. but not "the first speaker," as in Geneal. Reg. IX. 34, is said; and leader of the milit. of the town. His w. d. 24 Mar. 1650, and he m. 24 June of the [[418]] foll. yr. Hannah, wid. of Edward Mellows. Again he m. Jan. 1656. officiat. as magistr. at the solemnity (of course, as third w.) Helen Atkinson, call. d. of Hugh, of Kendall, in Co. Westmoreland; and at Newbury m. 8 Mar. 1665, fourth w.

He wrote his name with final s; but in some rec. that addit. does not appear. In the third m. he imitat. the foolish precedent of Gov. Bellingham at an earlier day, performing, in his own right, the legal ceremony, for wh. act he was presented at the Court. His will, of 14 Sept. 1687, names gr.childr. Hannah and Elizabeth Blanchard, Hannah Vinton, and Samuel Greene; makes s. Samuel an s.-in-law Abiel Long to be excors. See Geneal. Reg. VIII. 309. JOSEPH, Malden, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. m.

Oct. 1655; Hannah, Mar. 1657; John, Mar. 1666; Dorothy, 13 Apr. 1667; and Samuel, 16 Dec. 1667; but we are not always sure, from the rec. which was ch. of the elder or younger Joseph, who d. bef. his f.

See his will, print. as that of Iles, wh. is the first cop. into first vol. of rec. of Co. Suff'k. abstr. in Geneal. Reg II. 102, with a lucid explanation, Ib. 218. Confirmat. of the hypothes. of the modest writer, the late learned libra. of Harv. Univ. I could have furnished by the reference to the other end of the same Vol. I. of Suff'k. Reg. of Deeds, where is giv. power of attorney from Henry, John, and William Iles, as also of Margaret Linton with her h. Thomas and of John Keene the sis. and brs. of the testator, execut. at Bristol, Eng. to enable one Henry Hazard to receive all and singular, &c. RICHARD, New Haven 1639. RICHARD, New Hampsh. wh. d. a. 1677, may be thot. the same, wh. at Pemaquid, in July 1674, took the o. of fidel. to Mass. ROBERT, New Haven 1639, signer of orig. comp. had come in the Defence, 1635, to Boston, embark. 14 July, aged 20 yrs. on business of Cradock, the first Gov. of the Comp. of Mass. Bay, at London, d.

Sarah, Hannah, and Mercy. Folsom, 179. I suppose he rem. to Salem escape Ind. hostil. and was freem. 1678. Of descend. very good relat. is seen in Geneal. Reg. XII. 139-145, and 258-264, by a very diligent hand. SAMUEL, Dorchester, s. of John of the same, by w. Martha had Martha, b. 20 Dec. 1667; John, 20 Dec. 1669; Thankful, 31 Jan. 1672; Mary, 31 Aug. 1674, d. at 2 yrs.; Samuel, Sept. 1676; Israel, 11 July 1679; Josiah, 1 Jan. 1682; and Thomas, 8 June 1687. In Morse, 101, is a statement of quite inconsist. facts.

Of ano. SAMUEL, perhaps of Portsmouth, certain. of some part of N. Hampsh. Geneal. Reg. VII. 122, shows the m. 28 Oct. 1680 with Elizabeth Williams, and gives their ch. John, b. 30 Nov. 1681; Elizabeth 7 Nov. 1683; Mary, 6 Apr. 1685; Hannah, 29 Sept. 1687; Abigail, 29 Sept. 1689; Samuel, 13 1696; Sarah, 28 July 1701; Benjamin, 2 July 1703; and Joseph, pr. 1706.

Hannah, but no ch. and d. 1693. THOMAS, Roxbury, perhaps br. of William, came in 1633, and d. next yr. in the fam. of Rev. John Eliot, in whose ch. rec. it is certif. that he was a very faithful and prudent serv. and good Christian. THOMAS, Plymouth, freem. 7 June 1637, soon d. or rem. to Newport in 1638. THOMAS, Boston, a tanner, had m. Elinor, wid. of Thomas Munt, bef. Mar. 1668. THOMAS, Middletown, by w. Mary had Susannah, b. 1678; Elizabeth 1679; Thomas, 1682; rem. to Hartford, there had John, 1692, and d. 1704. He had others, ds. Mary, and Sarah, for his will of 1704, names w. Mary, and ch. Mary Dudley, Elizabeth Dudley, Sarah H. Thomas, and John. * VALENTINE, Boston 1636, a mercer from London, I think, ar. co. 1638, freem. 13 May 1640, and on Sunday foll. was, with Jacob Eliot, ord. deac. by w. Frances, wh. d. 17 Feb. 1646, had Hannah, bapt. 17 Mar. 1639; John, b. 1 Sept. 1640, d. soon; Elizabeth 12, bapt. 19 Dec. 1641, d. young; Joseph, and Benjamin, tw. 19, bapt. 23 June 1644, both d. soon; by sec. w.

He was of great public spirit, grantee in 1641, with others, of the town, or Bendall's dock, and the week foll. was made a selectman, rechos. 1642, 3, 4, 5 and 6; interest. in the lds. at Dover, and prob. liv. some time there, was rep. 1652-5 and 7, and d. 1662. His wid. m. perhaps John Lovering of Dover, and next, Ezekiel Knight of Wells. Hannah m. 24 Jan. 1660, Antipas Boyce. * WILLIAM, Dorchester, a man of note among, the first sett. prob. came in the Mary and John, freem. 5 Nov. 1633, was selectman 1636, and rem. to Windsor, of wh. he was rep. 1639-44, thence rem. to Fairfield, of wh. he was rep. 1652 and 3, and perhaps had Sarah, wh. m. 17 Sept. 1646, Joseph Loomis at W. and William, and possib. it may have been the latter, who was rep. 1669. WILLIAM, Roxbury, came 1632, as a serv. prob. in the Lion, freem. 14 May 1634, m. Phillis, d. of Richard Lyman, rem. to Hartford, had 2d w. wid. Mary Steele, d. of Andrew Warner of Hadley; and there d. July 1683; in his will names ch. William; John; Joseph, bapt. 17 Mar. 1650; Benjamin; Jonathan; Hannah Kilburn, w.

Always this fam. employ. final s. WILLIAM, a wheelwright, aged 70, embark. at London in the James, July 1635, to come to N. E. but I kn. no more. WILLIAM, Dover 1657-71. * WILLIAM, Fairfield, s. of William of the same, a man of distinct. had been at Windsor in his youth, and, no doubt, at Dorchester in boyhood, tho. b. in Eng. d. 1684. Inv. of his good est. is of 25 Dec. It was div. by the Court to wid. Elizabeth and five ch. William, Eliphalet, Joseph, John, and Sarah. The date of his f.'s d. is [[421]] uncert. but it was in the list of reps. so many yrs. that prob. the later ones are of the s. WILLIAM, Hartford, s. of William of the same, was bur. at II. 15 Aug. 1693, and in Dec. foll. seven ch. appear to div. the est. viz. Mary, aged 26; Phillis, 24; Hannah, 21; Ebenezer, 17; John, 14; Esther, 12; and Joseph, 10. ZEBULON, Gloucester 1652, from Bristol, Eng. had gr. of ld. bef. 1650, m. 16 Nov. 1651, Elizabeth Clark, d. prob. of Edmund, rem. to Salem, there had bapt. 27 Apr. 1662, Joanna, Elizabeth and John; of wh. the sec. prob. d. young, and third was b. 2 June 1659; Philip, b. 24, bapt. 28 Dec. foll. beside Zebulon, Elizabeth again b. 1 Feb. 1665; Mary, 25 Jan. 1668; Abigail, 21 Sept. 1670; and Sarah, 22 June 1675; In his will of 1699 these are ment.

Francis Norton, had Zeceriah, b. 10 Nov. foll. acc. rec. Middlesex, and Abraham only; d. early; and his wid. m. Matthew Griffen. Nineteen of this name had been gr. at Harv. in 1834, six at Yale, and seven at the other N. E. coll. says Farmer in MS. HILLIARD, ANTHONY, Hingham 1638, prob. had fam. and his d. Mary, it may have been, wh. m. 14 Aug. 1664, John Farrow, sec. of the same. Perhaps too he had at H. d. Ann. BENJAMIN, Wethersfield, s. of Hugh, may be in town rec. Benoni, as keep. of the town herd, 1648. BENJAMIN, Salem 1653, was k. at Hampton by the Ind. 13 June 1677. EDWARD, Salem, by w. Martha had Elizabeth b. 14 Oct. 1658, but, no doubt, the last fig. is wrong; and (if rec. be good), Mary, 30 May 1659; Edward, 16 Oct. 1660; Sarah, 8 Sept. 1662; David, 11 Dec. 1665; Jonathan, 6 Feb. 1668; and Joseph, 4 Jan. 1673. Sometimes it is spell. Helliard. Elizabeth m. 14 Sept. 1669, Gilbert Peters. Mary m. 30 Aug. 1672, William West, it is said; but she was too young. EMANUEL, Hampton 1649, lost in a boat, going out with six others, 20 Oct. 1657, had, prob. Timothy. HUGH, Salem, freem. 3 Sept. 1634, yet, as he is not nam. in Felt's list of ch. members, we may think he had belong. to some other ch. He had w. Margaret, s. Job, and Benjamin; and d. early. His wid. m. John Elson, wh. d. 1648 at Wethersfield; and she took third h. Thomas Wright of W. and d. 1671. In her will of 1670, she names s. Job, dec. and his ch. and Benjamin, wh. we may presume to have been the older. She had certain. no ch. by Elson, nor, prob. any by Wright. JOB, Salem 1653, br. of Benjamin, a fisherman. His first w. Sarah d. 14 Oct. 1660, and he m. 1 Apr. foll. Mary Oliver, perhaps d. of Thomas, had Abigail, b. 26 July 1662; Benjamin, 6 May 1664; Job, early in June 1669; beside, prob. William; and Sarah; and d. Mar. 1670. JOB, Boston 1689, perhaps s. of the preced. by w. Mary had Mary, b. at Charlestown, 1706. TIMOTHY, Hampton, perhaps s. of Emmanuel of the same, had to w. in 1669, a d. of Joseph Merry of the same, whose name is not seen. He took o. of fidel. Dec. 1678; and I observe, that by w. Apphia he had Apphia, b. 29 Aug. 1686. WILLIAM, Boston, came in the Elizabeth and Ann, 1635, a carpenter, aged 21, by w. Esther had Esther, b. 25 Mar. 1642; Mary, 7 June 1644. Six of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and two at the other N. E. coll. [[422]] HILLIER, HELYER, or HILLER, ANDREW, Simsbury, s. of John of Windsor, m. Hannah, d. of Benjamin Burr, had only Hannah, b. 1676; and d. 1697. His will of Feb. 1693 gives all his prop. to the d. He had prob. liv. at Windsor first. HUGH, Barnstable, and been of Yarmouth, 1639, there by w. Rose had Deborah, b. 20 Oct. 1643; and Samuel, 30 July 1646; and d. in short time after. His wid. m. 3 Nov. 1648, Thomas Huckins. JAMES, Windsor, s. of John, m. 15 June 1677, Mary, wid. of Ebenezer Dibble, had James, b. 28 Jan. 1679; and Elizabeth 6 May 1680; James, 14 Apr. 1683; perhaps others. He had sec. w. 30 Mar. 1699; Mary, wid. of William Alderman, d. of John Case, and by her had Elizabeth Descend. remain. JOHN, Windsor, had John, b. 3 June 1637; Mary, 25 Dec. 1639; Timothy, 3 June 1642; James, 24 Aug. 1644; Andrew, 4 Nov. 1646; Simon, 25 Dec. 1648; Nathaniel, 1 Jan. 1651; Sarah, 25 Aug. 1652; and Abigail, 21 Aug. 1654; and he d. 16 July 1655. All the ch. exc. Nathaniel, were liv. 1673. JOHN, Windsor, Hadley, and Northampton, s. of the preced. had at W. Elizabeth b. 8 Dec. 1680; Ann, 8 May 1687, wh. d. soon; left Timothy. His name in the rec. is Hilliour, and often the fam. is call. Hilliard. ROGER, Charlestown 1691, m. Experience, d. of Richard Hall of Dorchester, had John, bapt. 25 Aug. 1689; and Sarah, 7 Feb. 1692; and d. 10 Sept. 1693, aged 32. WILLIAM, Duxbury 1639-43, a carpenter, was the first miller in town, says Winsor. HILTON, CHARLES, Dover, youngest s. of Edward the first, outliv. his f. and I regret to say, that of him nothing more is kn. to me, exc. that he was of Exeter 1671, and d. a. 1683 or 4, unm. and a. 40 yrs. old. EDWARD, Dover, br. prob. younger, of William, a fishmonger, wh. means, I think, citizen of London of that comp. came and sat down, it is thot. in 1623, at D. and there liv. near twenty yrs. then rem. to Exeter, and d. early in 1671. We kn. not the name of his first w. by wh. he had Edward, b. 1630, or, as Mr. Quint says, 1626; William, 1632, or 1628; Samuel; and charles, who all admin. his ext. wh. was large. After July 1650, he m. Catharine, d. of Alexander Shapleigh, and wid. of James Treworthy, wh. outliv. him, and he d. 29 May 1676. Perhaps he had other ch. as John, and Jonathan, the latter name being found in the tax list at D. 1659; one d. wh. m. Christopher Palmer; and Mary, wh. M. Henry Moulton of Hampton. Descend. to our day are in good repute. EDWARD, Exeter, eldest s. of the preced. m. Ann, d. of Samuel Dudley, gr.d. of the Govs. Winthrop and Dudley, had Winthrop, a very promin. officer in the milit. k. by the Ind. 23 June 1710; just after being chos. into the Council, and bef. tak. his seat; Dudley, carr. away by the Ind. prob. when his br. Winthrop was k. for he was never heard of after; Joseph, b. a. 1681; Jane; Ann; Mary, and Sobriety, as Farmer gives them, but he leaves us to guess, that the last was a d. He d. 1699. Descend. of Col. Winthrop H. still enjoy the ancestr. fields, in one of [[423]] wh. they show the gr.stone on the spot he fell in, whose inscript. is yet legib. Jane m. Richard Mattoon; Ann m. Richard Hilton; Mary m. Joseph Hall; and Sobriety m. Jonathan Hilton. JOHN, Dover 1655, prob. s. of Edward, had gr. of ld. 1660, at Exeter, and he may have rem. to Middletown, where one of this name d. Dec. 1686, or Jan. 87, leav. ch. Mary, aged 14; John, 11; Richard, 7, and Ebenezer, 8 mos. Yet it may be better to inq. for ano. John, as their f. A John H. d. 1705, says Farmer, in Boston; but I doubt he was only a transient resid. for no admin. is found by me for twenty yrs. RICHARD, Charlestown, s. of sec. William, had w. Elizabeth Lord, wh d. 22 Sept. 1718, aged 49, and he d. 25 Jan. 1721. His ch. were of names unkn. to me. ROBERT, Wells, may have been s. of Edward, or William, or of neither, yet prob. a man of respectab. stand. for in Sept. 1685 his admors. were Samuel Wheelwright and Francis Littlefield, two of the Chief men. SAMUEL, Exeter, s. of the first Edward, of wh. I can learn nothing, but that, with his brs. he admin. on the large est. of his f. and in 1689, unit. with so many others of the New Hampsh. people to desire protect. under Mass. jurisdict. WILLIAM, Plymouth, br. (I presume, elder), of first Edward, a fishmonger of London, i. e. of that guild or comp. came in the Fortune, 1621, to Plymouth, hav. left his w. and two ch. to follow in the next sh. Ann, 1623. The letter he wrote in Nov. 1621 is preserv. in Young's Chron. In the div. of lds. reference being made solely to the ship, in wh. any claimant came, we have the w. and two ch. as so entitled, without names. As he rem. to join his br. at Dover bef. the div. cattle in 1627, we are not able to learn their names, tho. that of the w. prob. a sec. one, Frances, is gained from a depon. in 1688, when she was w. of Richard White, in wh. she testif. that 40 yrs. bef. her h. W. H. hired ho. at Kittery point of Nicholas Shapleigh; and from Maine rec. I learn, that he, with prefix of respect, was there in 1648, 9, and 50, licensed to sell wine, keep the ferry, and have control of Great Island, so that we may be sure Coffin mistook ano. for him, in giving the ch. tho. he was of Newbury, when made freem. 19 May 1642, in wh. yr. he is call sen. at Dover, and rep. 1644. The date of his d. is not kn. but in 1661 he was constable at K. WILLIAM, Newbury, s. prob. of the preced. b. in London, came, I doubt not, with his mo. in the Ann, to Plymouth, 1623, had Sarah, b. June 1641; Charles, July 1643, d. young; Ann, 12 Feb. 1649; Elizabeth 6 Nov. 1650, wh. m. 22 Dec. 1673, Timothy Cutler and William, 28 June 1633; was freem. 1653. After d. of his w. he rem. to Charlestown, m. 16 Sept. 1659. Mehitable, d. of Increase Nowell, had Nowell, b. 4, bapt. 10 May 1663; Edward, 3, bapt. 4 Mar. 1666; John, bapt. 24 May 1668; Richard, b. 13, bapt. 18 Sept. 1670; and Charles, again, 19, bapt. 27 Apr. 1673. He d. 7 Sept. 1675; and his wid. m. deac. John Cutler, and d. Sept. [[424]] 1711. His relation with the ch. of Newbury was transf. to that of C. 14 Aug. 1670. Beside the ch. bef. ment. he had Mary, wh. m. at C. 2 Oct. 1666, William Marshall, and d. 15 July 1678, aged 33. Budington, 192, refers to the "Relation of a discov. on the Coast of Florida," by a William Hilton, commiss. with two others in the ship Adventure, set out from Barbados, Aug. 1663, pub. at London 1664; but he may be mistak. in his surmise, that this was our William. It could not, prob. be the first or sec. may possib. be s. of Edward; but it seems likely to be not of N. E. origin. Hilton's relation is reprint. in Vol. IV. of Force's Tracts, Washington 1846. Great uncertainty is felt by the writers a. the descend. of these two promin. early sett. But we may safely decide, I think, against Budington and Coffin. that the William, wh. in 1621 had w. and two ch. at London, was not the same, who had William, b. at Newbury in 1653, and Charles at Charlestown in 1673. He must have reach. mid. life bef. the d. of Increase Nowell was b. 1638. WILLIAM, YORK, s. prob. of Edward, may be that freem. of 1652. HINCKLEY or HINKLEY, BENJAMIN, Barnstable, prob. eldest s. of sec. Samuel by first w. m. 27 Dec. 1686, says Hamblen, Sarah, d. of Henry Cobb, had Benjamin, b. 18 July 1694; Mary, 3 Oct. 1696; Nathaniel, 30 June 1698, and Mercy, 1 Sept. 1704.

He arr. 8 July 1672, and same mo. was chos. to the office; but was sadly unfortunate in his place. A combination against him of three of the corp. created such diffic. that all the stud. left the Inst. and in Mar. 1675 he resigned, as the Gen. Court in Oct. preced. had, not indistinctly, desired, tho. on his coming two and a half yrs. bef. they had voted a salary half as much again as they gave C. on the sole condit. that H. be elected. On 28 Nov. foll. he d. prob. of broken heart for his treatm. aged only 45 yrs. Cotton Mather was then one of the undergrad. and may, perhaps, bc believed in what he says of "the unhappy countenance of sev. very good men," towards the ungovernable youths in their ungovernableness, at least as to the latter portion he was an unwilling, if we may presume he could have been, a witness. See Magn. IV. 129, among the best, tho. characterist. pages of that strange work. Contempo. documents should be referred to in the Coll. of Hutch. 435, 45, 52, 64, and 71; but the noble Hist. of Univ. by Quincy, I. 31-5, may seem to be adequate in its decision. His w.

JOSIAH, Hingham, br. of the preced. b. prob. in Eng. freem. 1660, cannot be the man, who was, says Felt, II. 581, preach. at Beverly in 1657, for he was a mariner 1677, and was then of Boston, by w.

WILLIAM, Haverhill 1646, a tanner, of the parish of St. Alphage, Cripplegate, London, came in the Elizabeth, 1635, aged 25. He was first at Salisbury, when the name is Holdred; by w.

Perhaps he was br. of the preced. and rem. with him to Gloucester. [[447]] HOLLAND, or HOLLON, CHRISTOPHER, Boston 1652, by w. Ann had John, b. 1 Feb. 1648: Bridget, 14 Mar. 1650; Joanna, 1 Feb. 1652, d. soon; Joanna, again, 13 Oct. 1653, d. in few mos.; Elizabeth 17 Feb. 1655; Hannah, 7 Dec. 1658; Deborah, 8 Mar. 1661; and Mary, 8 Feb. 1663; and d. 4 Mar. 1704, aged 91. JEREMIAH, H. C. 1645, went home, was a min. with a good liv. (I suppose, in estab. ch.) in Northamptonsh. and d. bef. 1698 by Mather's list, but it is by nobody kn. wh. was his f. or of what town. JOHN, Dorchester 1634, freem. 7 Dec. 1636, was a merch. of good est. had w. Judith, ch. John; Thomas; Nathaniel, bapt. 1638; and three other ds. beside Obedience; and d. a. 1652; his wid. m.

His will, of 16 Dec. 1651, is abstr. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 287. JOHN, Newton, perhaps gr.s. of the preced. prob. s. of Nathaniel, m.

NATHANIEL, in the list of freem. of 1663, was of Watertown, prob. s. of the first John, may have been b. in Eng. but at Charlestown, by w. Mary, had Joseph, b. 24 Oct. 1659, and at W. by w.

THOMAS, Yarmouth, had Thomas, bapt. at Barnstable, 9 May 1641. HOLLARD, ANGEL, Boston, shoemaker, freem. 3 Mar. 1636, then mem. of Weymouth ch. where, perhaps, were b. sev. of his ch. as Thomas, 8 Oct. 1635, prob. d. young; Hannah, July 1638; Elizabeth 7 May 1641, wh. d. in few mos.; Hepzibah, 10 Aug. 1642; but in B. certain. had Thomas, bapt. 10 Nov. 1644, a. 5 wks. old; Sarah, 5 Mar. 1646; and by w.

Easi. this surname is pervert. to Holland, as in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 59, and lamentab. in the Index of same vol. tho. in one of its references, the name is correct. Similar vexation in the Index of Vol. X. confus. the differ. names of pp. 217 and 218. [[448]] HOLLEY, JOSEPH, Dorchester 1634, Weymouth 1639, was prob. of Sandwich 1643, and d. early in Dec. 1647. Often it is spell. Holway. RICHARD, at Charlestown, m. 29 Oct. 1663, Joanna, wid. of John Downing. SAMUEL, Cambridge 1636, in his will of 22 Oct. 1643, pro. 5 Dec. foll. refers to w. Elizabeth and s. John, but without nam. either. In the biogr. of Horace, Yale 1803, D. D. the eloq. Presid. of Transyl. Univ. he is derived, but not to gen. satisfact. from the celebr. astronomer Halley. HOLLIDAY, WALTER, Springfield, in 1673 m. Catharine perhaps eldest d. of William Hunter, had Ebenezer, b. 1675; and William; rem. to Suffield, there had Samuel, 1680; Sarah, 1683; Mary, 1685; Isaac, 1690; and Abigail, 1692. HOLLIDGE, RICHARD, Boston 1638, freem. 22 May 1639, had w. Ann, wh. also was of our ch. HOLLIMAN, or HOLYMAN, * EZEKIEL, Salem 1637, had been at Dedham bef. that; brot. from Eng. I think, a d. whose name is never seen, but it is less certain, that he brot. her mo. Susanna, d. of John Oxston, alias Fox, of Stanmore, in Co. Middlesex, wh. had three brs. John, Philip, and William, of wh. neither came over, but the time of her d. is not found. He was b. at Tring, in the adj. shire of Hertford, and m. his sec. w. prob 1638, at Providence, Mary, wid. of Isaac Sweet, wh. seems to have been cast out of the ch. at Salem, 1 July 1639, perhaps for carrying out the opinions of her h.; was pervert. in his faith, as our rulers thot. went to R. I. there at Providence in 1638, was one of the found. of the first Bapt. ch. Mary, his w. was in the same condemn. He liv. later at Warwick, where resid. John Warner, wh. had m.

HOLLINGWORTH, RICHARD, Salem, came from London in the Blessing, 1635, aged 40, with w. Susan, 30; s. William, 7; Richard, 4; and ds. Elizabeth 3; and Susan, 2. He was a shipwright, and for a casualty (by wh. one of his workmen was k.), severely fin. for benefit of the wid. and childr. in 1641. He d. 1654. Perhaps he had ch. b. on our side of the water, Joseph, Abigail, and Caleb. One of his ds. m. Robert Starr. RICHARD, Salem, s. of the preced. wh. m. 23 Aug. 1659, Elizabeth eldest ch. of Elder Michael Powell, had Richard, b. 9 Aug. 1661, d. next yr.; Benjamin, 28 June 1663; John, 12 May 1665; Abigail, 1 Mar. 1668; Joseph, 4 Apr. 1670; and Caleb, 22 Dec. 1673; was freem. 1665, and (unless there be confus. with ano. of the same surname), had license to keep an inn, and it was contin. in 1678, to his wid. Elinor, wh. d. 22 Nov. 1689, in 59th yr. His only surv. ch. Mary m. 1 Sept. 1675, Philip English, and was charg. with the baneful offence of witchcraft, and had the happiness of being rem. from Salem gaol, with her h. and imprison. at Boston whence. with approbat. of the best people in town, especial. Rev. Messieurs Willard and Moody, they escap. to New York. She, however, d. two yrs. after, in conseq. of her sufferings, aged only 42. Her superior educ. made up for defect of yrs. to justify [[449]] the execrable charge. See 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 65. Between the sec. Richard and the first William arises some confus. In 1669, as Mr. Judd assures me, one Richard H. was of Milford, but no more is told, exc. that the fam. name cont. there 1713. He might seem the same as the Salem man; but how the name was perpet. demands a pause. Mr. Porter informs me, that he d. 1683, leav. w. Abigail, and ch. William, Joseph, and Abigail. WILLIAM, Salem, not br. of the preced. b. in Eng. m. 1655, Elinor Story, wh. seems to be mo. of Mary English, not w. of Richard; was a man of large commerc. operations, by w.

JOHN, Weymouth, perhaps s. of the preced. by w. Mary had John, b. 26 Nov. 1691, as I judge is meant by Geneal. Reg. IV. 60, tho. date varies, and the name is spell. Halice. WILLIAM, Salem 1668. He had Elizabeth b. July 1672; and Mary, 11 Dec. 1673. HOLLISTER, * JOHN, Weymouth, freem. 10 May 1643, was rep. in Mar. 1644, in Mass. and Nov. of the same yr.in Conn. rem. to Wethersfield, where he had been in 1642, when s. John was b. to him, as is said, strange as his resid. seems at that day; was an efficient man in Conn. rep. 1645, and oft. until 1656, but with others engag. in a controversy with the ch. under Rev.

Hope Atherton of Hatfield, and next, 1678, or 9, of Timothy Baker of Northampton. Farmer thot. two of the same name were made freem. same day; but I am satisfied, as sev. others, of rarer name, are repeated in that day's work, it was the blunder of the clk. Joseph and Lazarus had no ch. JOHN, Glastonbury, s. of the preced. m. 20 Nov. 1667, Sarah, eldest d. of William Goodrich, had John, b. 9 Aug. 1669; Thomas, 14 Jan. 1672; Joseph, 8 July 1674; Sarah, 25 Oct. 1676; Elizabeth 30 Mar. 1678; David, 20 or 21 Nov. 1681; Ephraim, 15 Mar. 1684; and Charles, 29 July 1686; beside Elizabeth without date. His w. d. a. 1700; and he d. 24 Nov. 1711, when all the ch. exc. Charles were alive. STEPHEN, Wethersfield, s. of the first John, by w. Abigail, d. of Matthias Treat, m. 1683, had Jonathan, tho.

Of this first comer no more is kn. but that, after partak. of the div. of ld. 1624, and of cattle, 1627, he went home, but came back, 1632, in the Lion, I think, was liv. there in 1643, and in 1652 was one of the purch. of Dartmouth.

He prob. d. in 1652, for his will of 10 June of that yr. pro. 26 June 1655, is abstr. in Geneal. Reg. V. 242. As might be expect. that will was unsatisfact. to the eldest s. and the Gen.

A John H. perhaps s. of the preced. was of Casco 1675, or earlier, in that part now Cape Elizabeth; and in the Catal. of H. C. 1700, is a John H. wh. d. 1759, but we kn. not his descent.

Deane does not say, that he had fam. yet m. Desire, wid. of William Sherman, jr. d. of Edward Dotey, wh. next m. Alexander Standish, and outliv. him. Miss Thomas tells us, that she bore five ch. to Sherman, two, Israel, and John, to Holmes, and three to Standish. JOHN, Plymouth 1632, of wh. we would be glad to learn more than that he was messeng. of their Gen. Court and cont. there 1643. Sarah, perhaps his d. d. there 18 Aug. 1650. JOHN, Duxbury, was at H. C. in 1658, says Farmer, but why he had not degr. we kn. not; yet possib. he was mature in his studies, and as Partridge, his predecess. d. early in that yr. he may have been desired to fill the place. We kn. not his f. tho. some call him eldest s. of William, and I do not concur with Deane, wh. thinks he may have been s. of the first John; but he m. 11 Dec. 1661, Mary, d. of John Wood or Atwood of Plymouth, wh. bec. third w. of sec.

He had a part in sett. New Jersey 1664. Of his descend. in 1790, the estimate was 5,000. OBADIAH, his s. was, it is said, a min. and judge in N. J. and had a s. in Newport aged 95 in 1770; and his s. John was in honor at Philadelphia. See Benedict, 371; and Clark's Ill News from N. E. RICHARD, Rowley 1643, was b. 1610, but in 1692 his age was call. 88.

SAMUEL, Rehoboth, had Samuel, wh. was bur. 13 Sept. 1674; Samuel, again, b. 6 Sept. 1675, may have rem. to Duxbury, or perhaps the Duxbury man may have been his s. wh. had there Consider, b. 1702, and he of Marshfield, d. 1690. THOMAS, Hingham, perhaps, at least one of that name, came, 1637, as serv. to William Ludkin, wh. was of the city of Norwich, and sa down here in H. THOMAS, New London, b. at London, came in 1665, by w. Lucretia or Lucia, d. of Thomas Dudley of New York, had John, b. 11 Mar. 1686. By Geneal. Reg.

WILLIAM, Plymouth 1632, was sent next yr. with armed force to reestablish tradinghouse above Hartford against the Dutch; serv. in the Pequot war, was a lieut. in Scituate; went home, and got employ. in the civil war, or great rebellion, as the other side call. it, came back, and d. at Boston 12 Nov. 1649; prob. without w. or ch.; was call. major, and in his will gives est. in Antigua, and his farm at Scituate, to ds. of his br. Thomas at London, "if they come to N.E." They were to poor to come, as despons. in June 1654 show; yet possib. that Thomas Home, wh. arr. at Boston from London in the Speedwell, July 1656, aged 11, may have been a relat. The major's will ment. "arrears due to him for being a soldier and commander in the army and service of the king and parliam." as if this town of Boston were as good a place to expect such arrears as London. Winthrop I. 92, 113. Usually Oliver took better care of his old soldiers, especially if they had the merit of being hard heads as well as roundheads.

Elizabeth d. at the same age, 1693 or 1697, Miss Thomas says. I found it useless to distinguish the persons without l in the name. Five of this spell. had, in 1834, been gr. at H.

JOSEPH, Wallingford, s. of William, had Joseph, b. a. 1685; Daniel, 1687; Benjamin, 1690; Mary, 1694; and Elizabeth 1696; but I see not the name of his w. and depend for date of his d. 1698, on conject.

His will may be read in Geneal. Reg. IX. 345. It is curious in detail; but distorts the good name Putnam of one of the s.-in-law, into an impossible Prenam. In the will of Richard, f. of Ann Hathaway, w. of the immort. Shakespeare, made 1 Sept. 1581 at Stratford, he names Edward Hollyocke, as to him was due 20 shillings for wood; but tho. Warwicksh. and Staffordsh. adj. it must be large 30 ms. from Stratford to Tamworth, so that, if Edward were f. of our Edward, he had earlier, without doubt, liv. nearer London. * ELIZUR, Springfield, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. prob. came with his f. freem. 13 Apr. 1648, m. 20 Nov. 1640, Mary, d. of William Pynchon, had John, b. 27 Aug. 1641, d. soon; John, again, 5 Aug. 1642, H.

Jacob Eliot, was rep. 1704-7, d. 11 Aug. 1711, and his wid. d. 2 Feb. 1721, aged 66. He was f. of Rev. Edward of Marblehead, b. 26 June 1689, H.

HOME, THOMAS, a youth of 11 yrs. brot. in the Speedwell from London 1656. HOMER, JOHN, Boston, s. prob. of Michael of the same, m. 13 July 1693, Margery or Mary Stevens, had John, b. 8 Aug. 1694; Mary, 1696; Benjamin, 8 May 1698; William, 29 June 1701; Michael, 26 Sept. 1703; Robert, 29 Mar. 1706; Thomas, 1707; and Mary, again, 1708. His deriv. from Edward of Ettingshall, in the parish of Bilston, Co. Stafford, as giv. in Geneal. Reg. X. 291, is by Mr. Somerby thot. not trustworthy. Admin. I judge, of this John, was giv. to his wid. Mary, 19 Dec. 1738. MICHAEL, Boston, in a petition, 1676, for release of a serv. from impress. for the war, says he had had one serv. k. Prob. by first w. he was f. of John; but he took 13 July 1693, Mary Burrows, prob. as sec. w. HOMES, ROBERT, a soldier in Lothrop's comp. k. by the Ind. at Bloody brook, 18 Sept. 1675. HOMWOOD, WILLIAM, Cambridge, by W. Winifred had Elizabeth b. 19 May 1644. This name means Holman. See that. HONET, EDWARD, Huntington, L. I. 1664. HOOD, JOHN, Lynn 1650, Kittery 1652, says Farmer; yet of him I can learn no more, but that he was a weaver, had w. Elizabeth was in Eng. 1653; exc. that Mary Truesdale, wid. of Richard, in her will of 1672, speaks of "br. John Hood's two ch." JOHN, Lynn, s. of Richard, by w.

HOOKE, à FRANCIS, Kittery, s. of Humphrey, an alderman of the city of Bristol, m. 20 Sept. 1660, at Boston, Mary, wid. of John Palsgrave, d. of Samuel Maverick of Noddle's isl.; was a magistr. 1666, a capt. treasur. of the Province of Maine, under Presid. Danforth, acting for Mass. 1680, of the counc. 1681, and after the new chart. of William and Mary, at the first elect. 1693, chos. into the counc. in place of one of Mather's creation. Judge Sewall marks his d. 10 Jan. 1695, "much [[458]] lament." JOHN, Plymouth, came in the Mayflower 1620, serv. to Isaac Allerton, and d. shortly after arr. WILLIAM, Taunton, b. in Co.

Wood's Fasti says 7 July, to his A. M. We kn. not when he first had employm. in Eng. for Mather has not given him a whole line; but he says he was min. at Exmouth, Devonsh. bef. he came hither, the exact date of wh. is also not mark. by any writer, tho. we are sure he was here 1639, as in the town rec. his ld. is then made a boundary, rem. a. 1644 to New Haven, there had Elizabeth bapt. 14 Dec. 1645; and Mary, 5 Sept. 1647; was in high esteem until he went home in 1656; held in great favor with Oliver, the Protector (wh. made him a domestic chaplain), of the character of wh. a valua. letter to Gov. Winthrop by Hooke gives amusing insight, 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 181. He was also reward. by being made one of the preach. at the Savoy in London, and had easy associat. with the great Protector, for his w. was sis. of Whalley, the regicide, wh. had m. a relat. of Oliver. He d. 21 Mar. 1667, says Trumbull; but Calamy makes it ten yrs. later. * WILLIAM, York 1633, br. of Francis, rem. to Salisbury, freem. 12 Oct. 1640, call. by Winthrop II. 125, a godly gent. rep. 1643, and 7; by w. Eleanor had Jacob, b. there 15 Sept. 1640; d. 1654, leav. wid. Eleanor, wh. had been wid. of capt. Walter Norton, and s. Josiah, wh. d. at S. 1683. WILLIAM, Salisbury, perhaps s. of the preced. by w. Elizabeth had Ellen, b. 20 Feb. 1674; Humphrey, 28 Jan. 1676; Jacob, 7 Jan. 1678; Martha, 17 June 1681; and Josiah, 26 Aug. 1683; was freem. 1690 with prefix of respect. One WILLIAM was of New Haven 1647, a shoemaker, call. jr. to disting. him, I suppose, from the min. but perhaps he was not s. or any relat. HOOKER, DANIEL, Wethersfield, youngest s. of Rev. Samuel, was a physician, had been the earliest tutor at Yale, m. 1706, Sarah Standley, as may seem prob. and d. 1742. JAMES, Guilford, br. of the preced. m. Mary, d. of sec. William Leete, and d. a. 1740. JOHN, Hartford, br. of the preced. m. 1687, it is said, Abigail Standley, had nine ch. of wh. I find names only of Hezekiah, bapt. 21 Oct. 1688; Abigail, 31 May 1691; John, 19 Nov. 1693, d. soon; John, again, 10 Mar. 1695. He was a man of distinct. gr.f. of Rev. John of Northampton, and d. 21 Feb. 1646. NATHANIEL, Hartford, br. of the preced. m. 1698, Mary, d. of Nathaniel Standley, perhaps niece of her sis.-in-law Abigail, and he d. 1711. NICHOLAS, Charlestown 1678, had w. Mary, wh. d. 4 Oct. of that yr. SAMUEL, Farmington, s. of famous Thomas, perhaps b. in Cambridge ord. 1661, as success. of his br.-in-law Rev.

His ch. were Thomas, b. 10 June 1659; Samuel, 29 May 1661; William, 11 May 1663; John, 20 Feb. 1665; James, 27 Oct. 1666; Roger, 14 Sept. 1668, d. in 30th yr. unm.; Nathaniel, 28 Sept. 1671; Mary, 3 July 1673, wh. in 1698 bec. third w. of Rev. James Pierpont of New Haven; Hezekiah, 7 Nov. 1675, d. at 11 yrs.; Daniel, 25 Mar. 1679, H. C. 1700; and Sarah, 5, bapt. 8 May 1681, wh. m. Rev. Stephen Buckingham of Norwalk. SAMUEL, Hartford, s. of the preced. m. 1687, Mehitable, d. of Giles Hamlin, had Giles, bapt. 12 Oct. 1690; Thomas, 5 Feb. 1693; William, 24 Feb. 1695; ano. s. and two ds. of wh. Esther, 30 Nov. 1702, was one; and d. 1739. THOMAS, Cambridge, b. at Markfield, near Leicester, Co. Leicester, a. 1586, as in Mather is told; but the register of that parish for a few yrs. bef. and after is totally defic. It may, also, be doubted, for the fam. name does not appear at all in the reg. and perhaps ano. parish in that Co. may have been his birthplace. He was bred at Emanuel Coll. Cambr. where he took his deg. 1608, and 11, and was chos. one of the Fellows, first exercised his faculties as a lecturer, when 40 yrs. old, at Chelmsford, in Essex; but after four yrs. his unflinch. aversion to some cerem. compell. him to withdraw from the pulpit, and he opened a sch. at Little Baddow, a. 5 miles from C. where famous John Eliot was his assist.; but being still troubled for his puritanism, he went within two yrs. over to Holland, served in the gospel two yrs. at Delft, and went thence to assist William Ames at Rotterdam, thinking however to come over to us. One of our earliest sett. George Alcock had m. his sis. and of course he felt the attraction. Privately he got passage in the Griffin, with Rev. Samuel Stone, and our great John Cotton, arr. at Boston 3 Sept. 1633, next mo. sett. at Cambridge, freem. 14 May 1634, and in June 1636 went to Hartford with a majority of parishioners, d. 7 July 1647, in his 61st yr. tho. in the verses, wh. Mather at the end of his Life, III. 68, transcribes from Elijah Corlet, the glorious sch.-master, he is made 75, a preposterous exagger. that must have delighted the author of the Magn. Stranger confus. of time is seen in an article of Geneal. Reg. VI. 281, making Eliot, the apostle, follow H. to our wilderness, when he preced. him by near two yrs. Much excellent matter is distrust. in such carelessn. His wid. Susanna was not, I suppose, mo. of the elder ch. as of Joanna, w. of Rev. Thomas Shepherd of Cambridge, wh. d. above a yr. bef. her f. and of Mary, w. of Rev. Roger Newton of Farmington. Other ch. were John, Samuel, H. C. 1653, Sarah, all under age in 1647, as by his will, made the day of his death, at great length, appears. Sarah m. Rev. John Wilson of Medfield. The valuat. of his est. was large; of his library, honorable. Both will and inv. are print. in Trumbull, Coll. Rec. I. 498-502. A clause of the testam. tho. it did [[460]] not forbid his eldest s. from seek. and tak. a wife in Eng. did forbid from m. and "tarrying there." John not only did m. and live in Eng. but worse than that, in the opinion of his f's friends, bec. a parish priest, after the Restorat. at Marsworth, Co. Bucks, a short distance from Aylesbury. THOMAS, Hartford, eldest s. of Rev. Samuel, and gr.s. of the preced. a physician, m. 1686, Mary, wid. of Richard Lord, d. of Henry Smith, then said to be the richest match in N. E. had no issue. She was 16 or 17 yrs. older than he was, d. 17 May 1702; and he d. early in 1720. WILLIAM, Farmington, s. of Rev. Samuel, had only ch. Susanna. Twenty-two of this name, near all of wh. descend from Thomas (call. by Mather the light of the Western chhs.), had, in 1828, been gr. st the N. E. coll. of wh. only two were at Harv. HOOLE, THOMAS Boston, freem. 1665, is wholly unkn. to me. HOOPER, George, Boston 1674, mariner, was drown. at Salem in that yr. HENRY, Marblehead, s. of Robert the first, m. 15 Mar. 1692, Mary Norman, perhaps d. of the sec. Richard, had Robert, wh. was a deac. and f. of William, H. C. 1760; and also of Joseph, H. C. 1763. JOHN, Marblehead 1674, possib. was br. of George. JOHN, Marblehead, m. 27 Jan. 1691, Mary Litchfield, at Boston. RICHARD, Hampton, rem. to Watertown bef. 1684, was a physician and surgeon, by w. Elizabeth had Hannah, b. 1683, d. young (says Bond, 302, by mistake, for on p. 785 he shows, that Mr. Foxcroft, in 1702, was appoint. guardian for her and Henry); and Henry, 25 May 1685; and d. 8 Dec. 1690. His wid. Elizabeth had admin. next July, and in 1693 was licens. as innhold. RICHARD, Watertown, s. of the preced. as Bond thot. by w. Remember had Henry, b. 28 Aug. 1717; Richard, 7 Dec. 1718; Elizabeth Jan. 1720, d. soon; Elizabeth again, June 1721, d. next mo. and Elizabeth again, 2 June 1722. ROBERT, Marblehead, b. a. 1607, prob. was br. of John, bot. dwel.-ho. 1663, and ld. in 1665, sold in 1681 his ho. in conjunct. with w. Elizabeth By her had Robert and Henry, and was progenit. of a race of enterpris. and most valua. men, of wh. one, Robert (s. of Greenfield, s. of Robert the sec.) near a hundred yrs. ago, had usually the title, King HOOPER. ROBERT, Marblehead, s. of the preced. m. 4 Dec. 1684, Ann Greenfield, had Greenfield, perhaps more. SAMUEL, Marblehead, m. at Boston, 16 Feb. 1694, Mary White. WILLIAM, Reading, came in the James from London 1635, aged 18, freem. 1648, had Mary, b. 24 Mar. 1646, prob. for the last fig. is uncert. as also, is that name of a s. b. 4 Oct. 1648, wh. d. Sept. 1649; Ruth, 15 Apr. 1653; Rebecca, 26 Oct. 1656; William, 3 Nov. 1658; Hannah, 31 Mar. 1662; Elizabeth 23 Aug. 1665; Thomas, 2 Apr. 1668; and John, 5 July 1670; was, perhaps, of Salem in 1668, then bot. a tenement of David Thomas. He d. 5 Dec. 1678. WILLIAM, Reading, s. prob. of the preced. d. 1692. Twelve of this name had, in 1830, been gr. at Harv. [[461]] HOPEWELL, THOMAS, Fairfield 1670, had Sarah, b. at Windsor, 31 July 1658; and he d. 17 Aug. 1683. HOPKINS, CALEB, Plymouth, s. perhaps youngest, of Stephen the first, but old eno. to bear arms 1643, d. at Barbados, prob. unm. yet call. "heir apparent," and made excor. in the will of his f. of 6 June 1644; wh. makes more remarka. the fact of Giles being elder s. as relat. by Gov. Bradford, and raises a doubt, whether the f. had not been overruled to injust. by his sec. w. CALEB, Eastham, s. of Giles of the same, had Caleb, Nathaniel, Thomas, and Thankful, but by w. or whether bef. or after his rem. to Truro is not told. He d. 1728. ¤ à EDWARD, Hartford, came to Boston 1637, with Rev. John Davenport, and Gov. Theophilus Eaton (the d. of whose sec. w. Yale, was w. of H.), and went to Hartford perhaps the same yr. was chos. Assist. in 1639, and Gov. next yr. and thereafter in alternate yrs. with John Haynes until he went home in 1652, and even in his absence, thro. hope of his coming, back, he was again chos. in 1654. He had been, bef. coming hither, "a Turkey merch. in London," Says Hutch. I. 82, "of good credit and esteem," yet, tho. a thoro. puritan, he was not a mem. of the Mass. Comp. in London. But his intimate friend Eaton was one of the most active. After reach. home, he was soon made a mem. of Oliver's Parliam. and a commiss. of the Navy, made his will 17 Mar. 1657, and d. soon, in 58th yr. near ten mos. bef. Gov. Eaton, and within two or three days of his friend, Col. Fenwick. His wid. Ann, d. of David, or Thomas, Yale, after insanity of over 50 yrs. d. 17 Dec. 1698. The liberal bequest in fav. of Harv.

SAMUEL, Milford 1658, at New Haven, m. 5 Dec. 1667, Hannah, d. of capt. Nathaniel Turner, had Samuel Wait, as Mr. Porter, wh. marks the b. 3 Aug. not 30 foll. would regard this as the first double name on our side of the water. I do not accept the fact; but if Wait be fasten. on the ch. it may seem rather to be nickname for his premature coming, b. 30 Aug. foll.; and Hannah, 2 May 1670; rem. soon after from the Col.

Beside Elizabeth his w. liv. at P. above 20 yrs.; and he d. 1644, had been an Assist. 1633-6. Constance had m.

(by unusual inadvert. of a corresp. of extraord. accura. in Geneal. Reg. XIV. 89) is call. w. of Snow. Abstr. of his will is in Geneal. Reg. IV. 281. STEPHEN, Hartford, only s. of John, freem. 1657, m. Dorcas, d. of John Bronson, and d. Oct. 1689, in his will ment. six ch. John, Stephen, Ebenezer, Joseph, Dorcas, w. of Jonathan Webster; and Mary, wh. m. Samuel Sedgwick. His will. d. 13 May 1697. The s. John had eight ch. of wh. one was Samuel, Y. C. 1718, min. of West Springfield; and ano. Timothy was f. of Samuel, Y. C. 1741, of Newport, the Rev. amiab. and ingenious elaborater of the theolog. syst. that bears his name. See Eliot's Biog. Dict. STEPHEN, Eastham, s. of Giles, m. 23 May 1667, Mary, a. of William Merrick, had Elizabeth b. the last wk. of June 1668; Stephen; 15 July 1670; Ruth, Nov. 1674; Judah, Jan. 1678; Samuel, Mar. 1682; Nathaniel, 1684; Joseph, 1688; Benjamin, Feb. 1690; and Mary, 15 Apr. 1692. He d. 10 oct. 1718, hav. m. 1701, 2d w. Bethia Atkins, wh. d. 25 Mar. 1726. All the s. m. and had fams. of wh. I would glad. offer details, were they in my power. THOMAS, Providence 1641, had foll. Roger Williams in 1636 from Plymouth, m. Elizabeth d. of William Arnold the first, had William, and Thomas; sw. alleg. to Charles II. in June 1668, as did Tho. jr. in May 1671; was rep. some yrs. and progenit. of Stephen, the Gov. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 4. I suppose he had Joseph, and perhaps other childr. certain. William; and d. 1699. THOMAS, Providence, s. of the first Thomas, m. (or at least was publish.) 1 Apr. 1678, to Mary Smith, yet whose d. she was may not be kn. WILLIAM, Stratford 1640, an Assist. 1641 and 2, but it is unkn. whence he came, when be d. or what w. or ch. he had. Perhaps it was his d. Mary, wh. after his d. in virtue of a contr. of m. made by her mo. Mary, w. of Richard Whitehead, of Windsor (wh. was liv. 1670), with William Lewis of Farmington, 1644, bec. w. of William Lewis, s. of the bargainer. If so, we might infer, that our Conn. magistr. was then d. and his wid. wh. [[463]] m. Richard W. was nam. Mary, but no other deduction of value could be drawn. WILLIAM, Roxbury, had William, Thomas, and Hannah bapt. at once, 6 May 1660; and Mary, 30 Mar. 1662; but the town rec. gives none of the bs. exc. Hannah, 3 Jan. 1657; and ment. d. of s. Ebenezer in 1674; and therefore we may suppose he was, at first, a worshipper, not inhab. at R. tho. in 1657, he was made gr.-digger. The s. Thomas in Wadsworth's comp. was k. by the Ind. 21 Apr. 1676, and William was a soldier in 1676, at Northampton, under capt. Turner, k. by the Ind. that yr.; and the f. d. says Farmer, 28 Apr. but my copy of town rec. says 5 Nov. 1688. He is then call. sen. His w. Hannah had d. and d. Mary in 1678. WILLIAM, Providence, sw. alleg. in May 1668 (one mo. bef. his f. Thomas), m. Abigail, d. of John Whipple, had William (wh. by w. Ruth, d. of Samuel and Plain Wilkinson was f. beside three ds. and three other s. of the venerab. Stephen, Gov. of the State, and immortal signer of the Declarat. of Independ. as also of Esek a disting. naval officer, in support of the same cause); there liv. thro. that war, and was reward. for his constancy. Twenty-nine of this name had been gr. in 1834 at the various N. E. coll. but not one at Harv. HOPKINSON, CALEB, Bradford, perhaps s. of Michael, m. 25 Nov. 1679, Sarah Wallingford. MICHAEL, Boston 1638, was in the employm. of Jacob Eliot, says the rec. of the ch. when adm. 6 Jan. 1639, on 24 Nov. foll. was dism. for the gathering, of ch. at Rowley, where he liv. freem. 13 May 1640, d. 1648, hav. I conject. m. a d. of Richard Swan the first of R. and had Caleb, and John, wh. m. 8 June 1676, Elizabeth d. of John Pearson; nam. in the will of Swan, 1678. Farmer thot. that John, wh. d. 29 May 1704, and Jonathan, wh. d. 11 Feb. 1719, aged 76, at R. were his s. and perhaps he had s. MICHAEL, for one of the name, at a later day, m. Sarah, d. of Thomas Coleman of Newbury. HOPPER, DANIEL, New Haven, adm. freem. 22 May 1654. Possib. the name should be Hooper. HOPPIN, NICHOLAS, Charlestown, call. s. of Stephen, had been of Rye, in Conn. jurisdict. m. 1684, Susanna Jacklin, and, next, 13 Aug. 1707, Mabel Shippie, wid. as I judge, of the sec. Thomas; and d. or was bur. at Christ ch. Boston, 31 Aug. 1731. STEPHEN, Dorchester 1633, liv. on Thompson's isl. m. Hannah, eldest d. of Thomas Makepeace, had in 1666, when only 42 yrs. old, Deliverance, John, Stephen, Hannah, Sarah, Thomas, Opportunity, Joseph, and Benjamin, all nam. then in the will of their gr.f. Some yrs. he was of Roxbury, for the rec. of that town has Thomas, b. 21 Mar. 1655; and opportunity, 15 Nov. 1657, wh. m. 17 Jan. 1679, Thomas Lunt of Newbury. The name in Geneal. Reg.

But prob. this last was by third w. Elizabeth d. of John Alling, of New Haven, as I suppose the sec. w. d. 1683. He, in rec. of 1685, is call. sen and writ. Hopson, and d. 3 July 1701. His eldest d.

HORN, or HORNE, ARMSTRONG, Exeter, is giv. as the name of one wh. took o. of fidel. 30 Nov. 1677, I suspect an error. JOHN, Salem 1630, came, prob. in the fleet with Winthrop but may have been earlier, freem. 18 May 1631; was deac. and, Bentley says, in 1680, req. assist. by collea. "as he had been in that off. above fifty yrs." d. 1685, aged 82; had Recompense, bapt. 25 Dec. 1636; and Jonathan, b. 28 July, bapt. 1 Aug. 1658; both d. bef. the f. beside these wh. outliv. him, John; Simon, 28 Oct. 1649; Joseph; Benjamin; Elizabeth Gardner; Jehoadan Harvey; Mary Smith; and Ann Felton, 22 Mar. 1657. We may presume that his w. was Ann, as that name appears in Felt's list of earliest mem. of the ch. An Elizabeth H. d. at Newbury, says Coffin, 6 May 1672. All descend. in our day spell Orne (as did he in his last will), wh. count nine among gr. at Harv. Joseph is the s. from wh. is our best kn. stock. JOHN, Salem, prob. s. of the preced. m. 30 Oct. 1667, Mary Clark, had Mary, b. 23 Aug. foll. and d. at 1 yr. Perhaps he had by sec. w. Naomi that Jonathan, wh. d. 6 Oct. 1701.

Perhaps he had Mary wh. m. 28 June 1686, John Hayes. I think his wid. Elizabeth m. John Waldron. WILLIAM, Dover, s. of the preced. had Thomas. HORNDEN, or HORNDALL, JOHN, Newport, in the list of freem. 1655, had Mary, b. 6 July 1647, wh. m. John Stanton. See Harndale. HORNER, or HAWNER, in Col. Rec. EPHRAIM, Rehoboth, was bur. 27 Aug. 1684. HORNETT, EDWARD, Huntington, L.I. made freem. of Conn. 1664. Perhaps he is the same as Harnett. See that name. HORRELL, HUMPHREY, Beverly, freem. 1682, is the strange rec. wh. I doubt not is due to the heedlessness of Secr. Rawson, or his assist. [[465]] Unless by strik. off the first letter, I am unable to conject. what it should be. HORSLEY, JAMES; Newton, m. Martha, d. of the first John Parker, had James. JOSEPH, Rowley 1672, d. 1699. HORT, JOSEPH, and SAMUEL, Lynn, freem. 1691, perhaps brs. of wh. no more is kn.

I kn. not the names; all liv. when he d. 18 Aug. 1682. JOHN, Guilford, was freem. 1669, but not a propr. 1685. JOSEPH, Southold, L. I. 1662, made freem. of Conn. was, perhaps, br. of Barnabas.

THOMAS, Charlestown, had Thomas, b. 9 Jan. 1655; John, 23 Mar. 1657; and William, 13 Jan. 1659, d. in few days. The name is spelt without H. in early rec. and sometimes Horten. HORWOOD, JAMES, came in the Christian, early in 1635, aged 30. But no more is kn. of him. Possib. it is the same as Harwood, wh. see. JOHN, Boston 1663, perhaps only transient visit.

Justif.35. WILLIAM, Dorchester 1641, says Farmer, wh. adds, that he prob. went to Chelmsford, a. 1656; but I doubt, if he were ever at D. and presume, that he liv. at Concord, there by w. Mary had Daniel, wh. d. 4 June 1657; Sarah, b. 17 July 1658, d. young; and Hannah, 3 Dec. 1660, s. of Jeremy, m. 22 Mar. 1667, Sarah, sis. of Matthew, 18 Nov. 1672 and Samuel; and he d. 1703. ZECHARIAH, New Haven, adm. to o. of fidel. 1 May 1660, had John, b. 21 Dec. 1667, says Dodd, but says no more. But other ch. were Zeceriah, 31 Mar. 1670; Matthew and Sarah; and he d. 1703. Seven of this name had been gr. in 1834, at Harv. and twenty-three at other coll. in N. E. HOWELL, ABRAHAM, may have been s. or br. of Rice of Dover, and in 1658 was call. 26 yrs. old. ABRAHAM, Southampton, L. I. s. of Major John, m. 19 Oct. 1682, Abigail, d. of John White, had Abraham, b. 30 July 1683; and Charles, 19 Mar. 86. After d. of the first w. 19 June 1688, he m. 2 Oct. 1690, Ann, perhaps d. of the sec. Rev. Thomas James of Easthampton, had Philip, 25 Sept. 1691; and Ebenezer, 12 June 1693. He was a capt. town treasr. and justice 1712, but I kn. not the time of his d. ARTHUR, Easthampton, L. I. s. of Edward of the same, m. Feb. 1658, Elizabeth d. of Lyon Gardiner; had Elizabeth and she d. prob. in 1658. He rem. to Southampton, the next town, m.

He was the youngest s. of Edward the first, b.prob.in Eng. and d. 29 Mar. 1683. EDMUND, Southampton, s. of the first Edward, perhaps b. in Eng. m. Sarah, d. of Thomas Sayre, but Goodwin says of Joseph Judson, and that the m. was of 1 Nov. 1664; and this may have been first, and Sayre's d. sec. w.; had Sarah, wh. d. 10 Apr. 1685; and Elizabeth b. 10 Oct. 1669. * EDWARD, Lyme, freem. 14 Mar. 1639, with prefix of respect, had 500 acres at that place, but rem. to Long Island soon, was one of the grantees of Southampton in the Ind. deed 1640, and made an Assist. or a magistr. 1647, and six yrs. or more after, under jurisdict. of Conn. He had John, b. a. 1625; Edmund; Edward; Richard; and Arthur,wh.may all have been b. in Eng. and was d. bef. 25 May 1656. EDWARD, Southampton, s. of the preced. m. Mary, d. of Rev. Robert Fordham, had Joseph, Jonathan, Samuel, Jonah, Edward, Benjamin, Thomas, Sarah, Mary, Deborah, and Phebe; but it is not cert. that this was the order of their b. nor is any date kn. for him or his fam. exc. that of his ill 29 Apr. 1699. EPHRAIM, Southampton, s. of major John, m. 10 Nov. 1684, had Ephraim, b. 10 Oct. 1685, and perhaps others. * JOHN, Southampton, L. I. eldest s. of Edward the first, b. in Eng. was in 1664, a magristr. having been a rep. 1662. He d. 3 Nov. 1696, as on his tomb, where he is call. major, aged 71, appears. Tho. we find not the name of his w. eleven ch. are seen on the rec. John, b. 28 Nov. 1648; Edward, 22 Mar. 1650; Matthew, 8 Nov. 1651; Abraham, 22 Jan. 1654; Ephraim, 1 Jan. 1656; Susanna, 15 July 1658; Hannah, 28 Oct. 1660; Theophilus, 18 Dec. 1662; Nathaniel, 29 Aug. 1664; Prudence, 27 Dec. 1666; and Abigail, 5 July 1670.

His w. a. 7 June 1688, and he m. 30 Jan. 1690, Mary, wid. of Rev. Joseph Taylor, had Sybil, 9 Aug. 1691, was much employ. in town offices, and d. 8 Mar. 1693. * MATTHEW, Southampton, s. of major John, m. 8 Nov. 1677, Mary, d. of Thomas Halsey, had Eunice, b. 18 Aug. 1678; Nathan, 24 Dec. 1681; Israel, 17 Apr. 1686; Ezekiel, 21 Jan. 1689; and Jerusha; was col. of the reg. rep. many yrs. to New York, and d. 4 May 1706. MORGAN, Saco 1636, but more properly was of Cape Porpoise some miles E. of Saco; freem. 1653, constable 1656, and sev. yrs. later. Whether he had fam. is not kn. but in his will of 17 Nov. 1666, he gave half his est. (shown by the inv. of 22 Jan. foll. to be £151), to Mary Bowles, and [[478]] half to her childr. NATHANIEL, Southampton, youngest s. of major John, in his will, pro. 31 Mar. 1726, names w. Hannah, ch. Nehemiah, Nathaniel, Susanna, and Eunice, beside Mehitable Cook, a gr.ch. whose mo. was d.

THEOPHILUS, Southampton, s. of major John, was capt. 1711, and useful to 1724. THOMAS, Marshfield 1643, d. in few yrs. for we find that his neph. Job Lane, nam. excor. of the will, made on his deathbed in June 1647, being, then in Eng. declined that trust in Oct. 1647. Thirteen of this name had, in 1839, been gr. at N. J. and the coll. of N. E. HOWEN, HOWING, or HOWYN, ROBERT, Boston 1639, a cutler, by w. Elizabeth wh. d. 27 Sept. 1653, had John, b. June 1640, bapt. 20 June 1641; and Israel, bapt. 14 Aug. 1642; freem. 18 May 1642. Both h. and w. were prob. d. bef 6 Oct. 1653, when her est. was apprais. John was a shoemaker of Boston; Israel, a tailor at Cambridge. HOWES, * JEREMIAH, Yarmouth, s. of the first Thomas of the same, was rep. at the first Gen. Court after chart. of 1691; m. 1650, Sarah, d. of Gov. Thomas Prince. JOHN, Yarmouth, m. 28 Nov. 1689, Elizabeth Paddock, perhaps d. of Zechariah; may have m. sec. w. 8 July 1691, Mary Matthews. JOSEPH, Yarmouth, br. of Jeremiah, m. Elizabeth d. of Rev. John Mayo, had Samuel, Joseph, John, Nathaniel, Thomas, Amos, Mary, Elizabeth and Hannah; d. I suppose, early in 1696, his will, wh. gives the names of all the ch. being of 17 Jan. in that yr. and his wid. d. 1701. SAMUEL, Yarmouth 1631, adm. freem. 1 Jan. 1635, had Sarah, b. 25 July 1641; and John, 18 May 1645. * THOMAS, Yarmouth 1638, one of the grantees, constable 1644, rep. 1652, 3, 8, 9, and after, made his will 26 Sept. 1665, nam. s. Joseph, Thomas, and Jeremy, and w.

Dec. 1637; Thomas, 2 May 1663; Jonathan, 23 Feb. 1670; and Sarah, 29 Oct. 1673; was selectman and rep. as early as 1668. HOWKINS, ANTHONY, as Trumbull, Coll. Rec. spells the name, is the same as Anthony Hawkins. Such was the form for a hundred yrs. JOHN, with wh. the male line of Anthony closes, d. unm. by his will 11 Jan. 1676, express. foresight of d. in the field in the gr. Ind. war. HOWLAND, ARTHUR, Marshfield 1643, or earlier, not thot. to be near relat. of Mayflower John, by w. Margaret Read, a wid. had Arthur, Deborah, and Mary; beside Martha, and Elizabeth as Miss Thomas gives the ch.; in 1669 was aged and poor, and d. 30 Oct. 1673. His wid. d. 12 Oct. 1683. Deborah m. 4 Jan. 1648, John Smith of Plymouth; Mary m. 6 June 1653, Timothy Williamson; Martha m. John Dawson; [[479]] and Elizabeth m. John Low. ARTHUR, Marshfield, only s. of the preced. m. 9 Dec. 1667, Elizabeth d. of Gov. Thomas Prince, tho. he had in 1660, been fin. £5, for mak. propos. to her without assent of the f. had, as Miss Thomas tells, Ebenezer, Thomas, Abraham, and Prince. HENRY, Duxbury 1633, may have been br. of the first Arthur, was a grantee of Bridgewater 1645, but did not rem.; d. 1670, leav. wid. Mary, wh. d. 16 June 1674. His will of 28 Nov. 1670, beside w. ment. eight ch. Joseph, Zoeth, John, Samuel, Sarah, Elizabeth Mary, and Abigail. * ISAAC, Middleborough, youngest s. of John, m. Elizabeth d. of George Vaughan, serv. in Philip's war, kept an inn 1684, d. 1724. Whether he had ch. is not told. He was rep. 1689, 90, and 1 at Plymouth, and in 1692, after the chart. of William and Mary, at Boston. * JABEZ, Duxbury, br. of the preced. m. Bethia, only d. of Anthony Thacher, had Jabez, b. 13 Sept. or Nov. 1669; John, wh. d. one day old, 16 Jan. 1673; Bethia, 3 June 1674; Josiah, 6 Aug. 1676; John, again, 26 July 1679; Judah, 7 May 1683, d. at 6 mos.; Seth, 5 Jan. 1685, d. at 3 mos.; Samuel, 24 May 1686; Experience, 19 May 1687, d. soon; and Joseph, 14 Oct. 1692; was a lieut. in the war with Philip, sett. after at Bristol, was rep. 1689 and 90, and kept an inn. He was ancest. in the fourth generat. of the late admirab. John Howland of Providence. à * JOHN, Plymouth, of the ever honored passeng. wh. came in the Mayflower 1620 the latest surviv. exc. John Alden, among the adult males; tho. a minor d. of lsaac Allerton, Mary, wh. m. Elder Thomas Cushman, liv. more than 78 yrs. after the landing. He was a serv. or attend. of Gov. Carver, yet he is in rank the thirteenth signer of the Covenant, 11 Nov. and was reckon. as part of the fam. of Gov. Carver, wh. gave occasion, no doubt, to the vain tradit. prevail. for the last century and a half that his w. Elizabeth was d. of the Gov. who, perhaps, never had a ch. certain. brot. none. Both the Gov. and his w. d. in the first season, and Howland, at the time of their arr. 28 yrs. old, m. Elizabeth d. of John Tilley (wh. with his w. a. soon after landing, leav. only this ch.), we are hardly permit. to doubt, early in 1621, as his ch. John, b. 24 Feb. 1627, and Desire are nam. at the div. of cattle 1627, and he seems to have counted as many heads at the partit. of lds. 1623-4. For correction of the long prevalent error, that he m. a d. of Gov. Carver, we are indebted to Bradford's Hist. formerly part of the N. E. Library of Prince, in the tower of O. s. ch. at Boston, discov. 1855, in the Library of the Bp. of London at Fulham. He was an assist. 3 yrs. so early as 1633-5, and often a rep. and d. 23 Feb. 1673, aged more than 80, and his wid. d. 21 Dec. 1687, aged 80. His will, of 29 Mar 1672, names ten ch. we may hope in the order of b. of each sex, but we are ign. of the exact dates or sequence of any, exc. that John is by it call. eldest, and Isaac, youngest, Jabez, and Joseph; Desire, wh. was [[480]] the first ch. m. 1643, John Gorham and d. 13 Oct. 1683 Hope, w. of John Chipman, as early as 1646; Elizabeth m. 13 Sept. 1649 Ephraim Hicks, and 10 July 1651, John Dickenson; Lydia, w. of James Brown of Swanzey; Hannah, m. a Bosworth, Nathaniel, as by the scrupulous writer of the life of the late John Howland, p. 11, is said and in his will she is nam. Bosworth; and Ruth, m. 7 or 17 Nov. 1664, Thomas Cushman, s. of the Elder. JOHN, Barnstable, eldest s. of the preced. m. 26 Oct. 1651, Mary, d. of Robert Lee, had prob. Mary; Elizabeth b. 17 May 1655; Isaac, 25 Nov. 1659; Hannah, 15 May 1661; Mercy, 21 Jan. 1663; Lydia, 9 Jan. 1665; Experience, 18 July 1668; Ann, 9 Sept. 1670; Shubael, 30 Sept. 1672; and John, 31 Dec. 1674. He liv. first at Marshfield, but at B. spent most of his days, was lieut. and selectman. In Apr. 1702, he told Ch. J. Sewall, he was b. 24 Feb. 1627. *JOSEPH, Plymouth, br. of the preced. but not youngest, as sometimes suppos. m. 7 Dec. 1664, Elizabeth only d. of Thomas Southworth but issue is unkn. was rep. 1677. ZOAR, Newport, by w. Abigail, m. Dec. 1656, had Nathaniel, b. 5 Oct. 1657; Benjamin, 8 May 1659; Daniel, July 1661; Lydia, 23 June 1663; Mary, 23 Feb. 1666; Sarah, Apr. 1668; Henry, and Abigail, tw. 30 Aug. 1672. No connex. can be traced with the fam. of the Mayflower celebr. but he must be regard. as an independ. stock, too old to be gr.s. of the first John. HOWLETT, JOHN, Boston, mariner, d. bef. 1676, when his wid. Susanna sold his est. She was d. of Francis Hudson, had one ch. by H. and m. Edmund Perkins. *THOMAS, Boston 1630, came, prob. in the fleet with Winthrop went early in 1633 with young John Winthrop to plant Ipswich, freem. 3 Mar. 1634, rep. 1635, m. Alice French of Boston, had Sarah, wh. m. John Cummings; Thomas; and others; was ens. and d. 22 Dec. 1667, leav. wid. Rebecca, wh. d. at Newbury, 1 Nov. 1680; and Samuel, wh. may have been of Topsfield 1661, unless this was the f. A William gr. at Harv. 1727, was d. bef. 1759. He was, prob. a descend. HOWMAN, JOHN, came, prob. in the fleet with Winthrop req. 19 Oct. 1630 to be made freem. but as the adm. is not found after, perhaps he d. soon, or went home. HOYLE, JOHN, Marblehead 1674. HOYT, DAVID, Hadley, s. of Nicholas, m. 1673, Sarah, d. of Thomas Wells, had Samuel, b. 1674, d. young; David, 1676; and his w. d. that yr. He had sec. w. Mary, and third, Abigail, wid. of Joshua Pomeroy, rem. to Deerfield, there was deac. and had b. there Mary, a. 1684; Jonathan, 1685; Sarah, 6 May 1686; Benjamin, 15 Sept 1692; Ebenezer, 21 Aug. 1695; and Abigail, 1 May 1701. On p. 123 of the valu. "Hoyt Fam." pr. 1857, the first w. is call. Mary Wells, the sec. Sarah Wilson; and the b. of Jonathan is giv. as 6 Apr. 1688. I must prefer the authority that makes the first w. Sarah, not Mary. In the assault, by [[481]] the Fr. and Ind. 29 Feb. 1704, he, with his w. and the ch. Jonathan, Sarah, Ebenezer, and Abigail were made prison. and carr. away for Canada, but the youngest was k. on the road, and the deac. perish. of hunger near the lower Cohos; the w. and two elder ch. came back, while Ebenezer remain. in that country. The wid. m. deac. Nathaniel Rice. David the s. was k. on the morning of the surprise, leav. d. Mary. Jonathan was the progenit. of the gent. wh. in our days have in that quarter done honor to the name. JOHN, Salisbury 1640, by w. Frances had Frances, b. a. 1636; John, a. 1638; both, perhaps, b. in Eng.; Thomas and Gregory, tw. 1 Jan. 1641; Gregory d. 1 Feb. 1643; Elizabeth b. 23 Feb. 1643; his first w. d. 23 Feb. 1643; by ano. w. whose name was Frances, had Sarah, 16 Jan. 1645, d. 26 Feb. foll.; Mary, 20 Feb. 1646; Joseph, 13 May 1648, d. soon; 2d Joseph, 27 Nov. 1649, d. 24 Jan. 1650; Margaret, 24 Nov. d. 2 Dec. 1653; Naomi, 23 Jan. 1655; Dorothy, 13 Apr. 1656; and Mehitable, 25 Oct. 1664. From Pike's Journal we learn, that he was k. by the Ind. prob. betw. Andover and Haverhill, 13 Aug. 1696. His d. Frances, b. prob. bef. her f. came to S. m. 14 Jan. 1655, John Colby; and Mary m. 19 Dec. 1663, Christopher Bartlett of Newbury. Naomi m. 23 Mar. 1678, John Lovejoy, jr. JOHN, Fairfield 1650, freem. 1664.

At Amesbury, where I kn. not any other John, at that time, he is call. jun. when tak. the o. of fidel. 20 Dec. 1677. JOHN, Norwalk, s. of Walter, m. 14 Sept. 1666, Mary, d. of Henry Lindall, had John, b. 21 June 1669; Samuel, 17 Oct. 1670; Thomas, 5 Jan. 1675; Mary, 1 Sept. 1677; and Deborah, 28 Dec. 1679; perhaps he was of Duxbury 1685. JOHN, Amesbury, s. of the sec. John of Salisbury, by w. Elizabeth had Lydia, b. 15 June 1686; Mary, 5 Mar. 1688; and Daniel, 2 Mar. 1690.

JOSEPH, Salisbury, s. of sec.

MOSES, Fairfield 1658-65 and later, may have been s. of Simon. NICHOLAS, Windsor, may have been br. of the preced. m. 2 June, or 12 July 1646, Susanna Joyce, had Samuel, b. 1 May 1647; Jonathan, 7 June 1649; David, 22 Apr. 1651; Daniel, 10 Apr. 1653, wh. d. 1655, as did both his f. and mo.; Samuel [[482]] d. young, unm. and of this stock Jonathan and David alone surv. ROBERT, Amesbury, youngest s. of John the sec. of Salisbury, m. 4 Dec. 1701, Martha Stevens, had Hannah, b. 27 Dec. 1702; and Abigail, 29 May 1705; and by sec. w. m. 17 Mar 1707, Mary Currier, had Martha, 19 May 1708; Mary, 10 Dec. 1709; Theodore, 24 Apr. 1711; Dorothy, 22 Apr. 1714; Aaron, 30 Mar. 1716; Ann, 9 May 1718; and Miriam, 25 June 1720. SIMON, or SIMEON, Dorchester, had been at Charlestown 1629, freem. 18 May 1631, rem. a. 1639 to Windsor (but he had first been at Scituate 1633-6), there with his w. of the earliest mem. of the ch. had Benjamin, 2 Feb. 1645, prob. his youngest ch. as he brot. sev. from Eng. at W. but prob. rem. 1650 to Fairfield, soon after rem. again, to Stamford, and d. 1659.

Deliverance, 2 May 1688, d. in few days; and, perhaps, by ano. w. He had Mary, 1 Oct. 1690, d. in few wks. He d. 3 Jan. 1691. * WALTER, Windsor, s. of Simon, b. prob. in Eng had John, b. 13 July 1644, and ano. ch. beside, it is said, and Zerubabel, rem. to Norwalk with first sett. a. 1653, was rep. 1658 often to 1681. In rec. of Windsor is "old goody Hoyt," d. 1643, and we may presume she was either mo. of Walter or of Simon. His name is usually Haite or Hayte, but his s. bear the modern spell. WILLIAM, Amesbury, took o. of fidel. 20 Dec. 1677, on being enrol. in the milit. m. 12 Jan. 1688, Dorothy, d. of Samuel Colby, had Elizabeth b. 15 June 1689; Dorothy, 20 July 1691; Abner, 25 Jan. 1693; Mary, 21 Nov. 1694; Susanna, 20 Feb. 1696; Philip, 1 Apr. 1697; William, 15 Aug. 1702; Hope, or Hopestill, a d. 6 Sept. 1704; and Miriam, 31 Oct. 1710, and he d. 19 July 1728. ZERUBABEL, Norwalk, s. of Walter, had Abigail, b. 2 Feb. 1676, and possib. others not found in the rec. The spell. of this name has been deprav. to Hight and more than a dozen other forms. Eleven of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at the N. E. coll. beside some, writ. Hoit, at Dart. none at Harv. HUATT DANIEL, Guilford 1669. HUBBARD, ANTHONY, prob. of Dedham 1648, as in the will of Michael Bacon, nam. See Geneal. Reg. VII. 231. BENJAMIN, Charlestown 1633, with w. Alice, prob. came with his mo.

He was freem. 1684, and is intended, where, both by Paige, in Geneal. Reg. III. and Col. Rec. V. the name is misrepresent. as Hubbard. WILLIAM, Dorchester 1630, prob. came in the Mary and John, freem. 3 Apr. 1632, but had req. that benefit 19 Oct. 1630, rem. 1636 to Windsor, thence, 1655, to Northampton, but was some yrs. bef. at Hartford, where he had Sarah, b. 10 July 1647; and Ann, bapt. 17 Mar. 1650.

JEREMIAH, New Haven, s. prob. elder of Richard, m. 6 May 1658, Hannah Baldwin, had Jeremiah, b. 2 Jan. 1663; Hannah, 22 Oct. 1664; Mary, 8 Aug. 1666; John, 13 Nov. 1668; Elizabeth 27 Feb. 1671, d. soon; Joseph, 11 Aug. 1672; Sarah, 4 Mar. 1675; and Martha, 27 Nov. 1677; was liv. a propr. 1685, and d. 13 Jan. 1701.

Perhaps he was the man wh. [[494]] serv. in Philip's war 1675 and 6, as surg. of the Conn. forces; and d. 1714. JOHN, Derby, s. of the preced. d. 1753.

He had been excom. at Barnstable merely for going to Y. people as their min. without leave of his fellow-mem. at B. but was readmit. 10 Aug. of next yr. But prob. he sat down first at Weymouth, where is seen by the rec. 12 June 1636, his right for 9 heads, i. e. 54 acres, being larger than any other share. His d. Joanna m. 28 Nov. 1639, John Bursley of Barnstable, and had Naomi, bapt. 22 Mar. 1640; and Ruth, 9 May 1641. It is necessary to follow the poor man to Maine, where, no long time bef. his d. 19 Nov. 1665, he had been preach. at Isle of Shoals, as his wid. Agnes showed in her inv. "the Isle owed him for his min. £20." and tho. I regret to say the sum was only £52. 5. 5. yet £10. is put down for books. JOSEPH, Derby, s. of John of the same, m. 1691, Mary Nicholls, d. of Isaac the sec.; had Samuel, b. 1692; Joseph, 1694; Caleb, 1695; Andrew, 1697; Mary, 1699; Sarah, 1701; Abijah, 1703; and Nathan, 1709, and d. 1744.

Field, 106, perhaps from erron. tradit. of descend. derives him from Barnstable Co. Cothren seems to have confus. him with a mythical John, wh. borrows most of his renown from George, and perhaps he is wrong in finding, 1641, Josiah at Hartford. Naomi m. 4 Jan. 1677, Thomas Burnham the sec. of same. PHINEAS, York, a sufferer by the attack of Ind. wh. took his w. 22 Aug. 1690, and kept her for their secretary until late in the yr. foll.

Sewall calls him gr.f. yet falls into strange error as to date of his d. of wh. event the full and exact relat. of his s. John must be receiv. "28 July 1666 at 4 in the afternoon," aged 73. His will, made 20 May 1657, names s. John excor. gives him est. at Muddy riv. and part of that in B., some to his s. Edmund Quincy, and his s. John Q. at Braintree, a legacy to his s. Storer, meaning his first w.'s, and an est. to his own s. Edward. But as the younger d. John was the only surv. ch. SAMUEL, Fairfield, m. Deborah, d. of the elder James Beers. THOMAS, Boston, cooper, m. 3 Apr. 1657, Hannah, d. of William Townsend, had William, b. 23 Jan. 1659, d.

TRISTRAM, Yarmouth 1643, had Mary, b. latter part of Sept. 1645; Sarah, 18 Oct. 1647, d. soon; Sarah, again, latter part of Mar. 1650; Joseph, June 1652; John, latter part of Mar. 1654; and Hannah, Feb. 1657. His will of 20 Dec. 1666, names the five ch. and w. Blanch. WILLIAM, R. I. 1654. HULLING, or HULLINE, OBADIAH, Salem, had, says Felt, gr. of ld. 1639; and in the list of freem. appears the surname with no name of bapt. 22 May 1639. Yet I feel doubtful, for in his ch. mem. Felt gives no such, and of the whole 399 bef. 1651, a single Obadiah is found, but he is united with the name Holme, and this man too had a gr. of ld. 1639. HULTON, RICHARD, Salisbury, by w. Martha had Dorothy, b. 19 Apr. 1673, had been earlier of Topsfield. HUMBER, EDWARD, Salem, freem. 1665. HUMPHREY, Hampton 1645. HUME, DAVID, and two or three others of the same fam. name, came to Boston May 1652, as prisoners tak. at the battle of Worcester 3 Sept. preced. brot. in the John and Sarah, with about two hundred and seventy more, to be sold. Most of them, no doubt, d. bef. serv. their times out, nor can I find evid. of more than one of all the young men having raised a progeny here; but perhaps some few others escap. the general doom of civil war. HUMFREY, à || JOHN, Lynn, a gent. of great merit for his services and affection to our country in its first attempts, chos. at its sec. meeting, 1629, dep.-gov. of the comp. in Eng. came not over, however, bef.

Theophilus, having his name from the fourth Earl, 24 Jan. 1637; Thomas, 26 Aug. 1638; Joseph, 5 Apr. 1640; and Lydia, 25 Apr. 1641. Perhaps he had ano. d. wh. lost her reason, and John, also, older than any. Hutch. 1. 13, puts his coming too early by two yrs. Early in 1641 he was of ar. co. and in June was made the first maj.-gen. of the col. but having lost most of his prop. was tempted by great offers for new plant. in the West Ind. He went home 26 Oct. 1641 in the same ship with Rev. John Phillips. Of his ch. Ann, the eldest d. was m. at Salem, prob. to William Palmer of Ardfinnan, Co. Tipperary In Ireland, and next, to Rev. John Myles of Swanzey, but of no others have we exact account. Two ds. as relat. by Winthrop 11. 45, suffer. the saddest fate of any in our early ann. Perhaps, sooner or later, all, but the one m. went to Eng. at least the f. never came again.

I presume, of the preced. bound on a voyage to Eng. made his will 3 July 1663, in wh. he speaks not of any near relat. but dispos. of the 300 acres given him by the Gen. Court. Prob. he never came back, but was k. at Lisbon, we may fear without reputa. concomit. for that will was pro. 23 Oct. 1672, evid. first being produc. here on 5 of same mo. that "a. 3 yrs. since he (the depon.), had helped to inter him," without any elucidat. of circumst. as in the Pro.

THOMAS, New Haven, Ebenezer, b. 14 Mar. foll.; Elizabeth; and Thomas, 3 May 1699; beside Joseph, 14 Nov. 1705. But it may be that this last was by sec. w. the wid. Esther Howe, of whose time of m. we are ign. as of the day or yr. of d. of the first. He d. Jan. 1716. The fam. is diffused; a part at W. Springfield spells its name Hummiston and Humeston; possib. all may be deriv. from Cambridge, where Harris, from the rec. gives: Edward Hammerston bur. 24 Aug. 1646. Yet this is the sole ment. of the name on the rec. HUMPHREY, UMPHRYS, or HUMPHRIES, EDWARD, Marblehead, 1673. HOPESTILL, Dorchester, s. of James, m. 21 Nov. 1667, Elizabeth Baker, wh. d. 25 Oct. 1714, had Jonas, b. 13 Mar. 1696, perhaps others bef. serv. in Davenport's comp. at the great Narraganset fight, 19 Dec. 1675; had sec. w.

JOHN, Simsbury, s. of Michael, d. 1697, leav. John, Thomas, Nathaniel, Samuel, Joseph, Mary, and Abigail, wh. m. Benjamin Graham, and d. 27 June 1697. Descend. are very num. sometimes writ. their name Humphries. JONAS, Dorchester 1634, tanner, whose pits were employ. by six generat. of most worthy descend.; was from Wendover, Co. Bucks, where he was, it is said, the constable, came with ch. James, Jonas, and prob. Elizabeth and Susanna, perhaps with w. Frances, whose d. Sarah was bur. here Sept. 1638. For sec. w. he had Jane, wid. of George Weeks, wh. d. 2 Aug. 1668. He d. 19 Mar. 1662. His will of 12 Mar. pro. 17 Apr. of that yr. in Vol. I. 381, names only w. s. Jonas, gr.-ch. Elizabeth Foy and d. Susanna, w. of Nicholas White. JONAS, Weymouth, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. a. 1620, freem. 1653, by w.

Samuel, Nathaniel, and perhaps more. In 1688 he calls hims. 68 yrs. old. His will of 6 Aug. 1692, in Vol. XIV. 24, names only these three s. but adds gr.ch. Jonas, James, and mary, wh. prob. were by his w. Mary ch. of that s. JONAS, wh. had serv. in Johnson's comp. in the hard campaign, Dec. 1675, and d. 30 Oct. 1689 preced. So we see the confus. of Geneal. Reg. V. 401, in tak. gr.s. for s. of the emigr. MICHAEL, Windsor, perhaps had been at Dorchester, was freem. of Conn. 1657; m. 14 Oct. 1647, Priscilla, d. of Matthew Grant had John, b. 7 June 1650; Mary, 24 Oct. 1653; Samuel, 15 May 1656, Sarah, 6 Mar. 1659, wh. m. 11 June 1680, Richard Burnham; Martha, 5 Oct. 1663; Abigail, 23 Mar. 1666; and Hannah, 21 Oct. 1669; all liv. 1697, bef. wh. he d. at Simsbury, whither he rem. 1669.

Dec. 1665, at Hingham, a d. of George Lane, prob. liv. at Pemaquid 1674, when he swore fidel. to Mass. as 8 Sept. 1665 he took as good an oath to the royal commissnrs. WILLIAM, Boston, [[498]] had gone home, and d. bef Feb. 1654. In 1834, sixteen persons of this name, with slight var. of spel. had been gr. at the N. E. coll. of wh. two at Harv.

MARK, Portsmouth, perhaps br. of the preced. had w. Ann, and d. bef. Nov. 1667. His will of 1 July preced. refers to eldest s. Mark, s. Archelaus, and d. Mary. + MARK, Portsmouth, master mariner,in 1679, of a vessel from Barbados for Boston; record. of the Prov. Judge of the Sup. Court, and in 1710 a couns. says Farmer, wh. makes him s. of John; tho. it may seem equal. prob. that he was s. of the preced. He had d. Sarah, wh. m. John Wentworth, and liv. past mid. age, and other ch. but these d. young. HUNKINGS, WILLIAM, Providence 1641, unit. with Benedict Arnold, William Harris, and others in compl. to their neighb. of Mass. against Gorton and others, wh. is the first matter of 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. But I have some doubt, that the name should be Hawkins. HUNLOCK or HUNLOKE, EDWARD, Boston, from Derbysh. by w. Margaret had Margaret, b. 7 May 1682; Martha, 7 Feb. 1684; and Mary, 15 Feb. 1686; rem. to Burlington in the Prov. of W. Jersey, whence he wrote 12 July 1695 to his kinsman John at Boston. He was in Dec. 1699, appoint. by Gov. Hamilton one of the three Prov. Judges; and in the first yr. of her reign, Queen Anne, by commiss. 16 Nov. 1702, to her cous. Lord Cornbury, Gov. of New Jersey, among his thirteen counsel. nam. him the first. JOHN, Boston, s. of Christopher, of Wingerworth, near Chesterfield, Co. Derby (of wh. we find no trace on our side of the ocean, and therefore presume he never came, espec. as he was creat. a baronet in 1642), m. Joanna, only ch. of Samuel Sendall, had John, b. 7 Oct. 1667, d. young; Joanna, 27 Feb. 1670; John, again, 19 Mar. 1672; Sarah, 10 Sept. 1673; Samuel, 26 July 1678; Jonathan, 12 Dec. 1682; Elizabeth 12 Mar. 1685; and Joseph, 18 Oct. 1689. His w. d. 21 Oct. 1706; and he prob. rem. to N. J. as no further notice of him is found. He had br. Christopher, wh. came over [[499]] to some part of our country, nam. his planta. Wingerworth, as may be learn. from a most curious vol. in MS. of Collections of the Gentry of Derbysh. by Bassano, in the Brit. Museum. Their gr.f. was Nicholas of Wingerworth, where the fam. an old Catholic stock (of wh. however, the latest possessor conform. to the ch. of Eng.), resided until our day, in the rank of baronets, now extinct. He was b. 1547, d. 1605. HUNN, GEORGE, Boston 1635, tanner, freem. 17 May 1637, by w. Ann had Nathaniel, and d. June 1640, hav. made his will 25 May bef.

HUNNIWELL, HUNNUEL, HONYWELL, or HUNNEWELL, JOHN, Wethersfield, m. Elizabeth d. of Daniel Harris of Middletown, was surveyor of the roads 1682.

Sarah, d. of Nathaniel Adams, went again to impr. his est.; and was capt. k. by the Ind. 6 Oct. 1703. Geneal. Reg. III. 25, and Penhallow. ROGER, Saco, d. 1654. Folsom. HUNT, BARTHOLOMEW, Dover 1640, I suppose to bc the same, wh. was of Newport 1655, freem. of that Col. there by w. Ann had Bartholomew, b. 7 Dec. 1654; Adam, Sept. 1656; Naomi, 15 Sept. 1658; and Ezekiel, 8 Mar. 1663, or 4; beside others; by whose will of 11 Feb. 1687, pro. 22 June foll. provis. for w. Ann, s. Bartholomew, Ezekiel, and John, and four ds. not nam. is made. The witnesses were John Vaughan, and John Williams, and w. was made with John Albroe, excors. EBENEZER, Northampton, s. of Jonathan, m. 27 May 1698, Hannah, d. perhaps, of sec. William Clark of the same, had Hannah, b. 4 Oct. 1699; Stephen, 24 July 1701; Ebenezer, 30 Aug. 1703; William, 12 Oct. 1705; Abigail, 16 July 1708; Daniel, 17 Aug. 1711; Simeon, 3 Nov. 1713; and Thomas and Esther, tw. 24 May 1716. EDMUND, Duxbury 1637, had, says Winsor, copying Farmer, been of Cambridge 1634, was surveyor of roads 1645; and a propr. of Bridgewater, but prob. did not move thither. EDWARD, Duxbury, d. a. 1656, his inv being of 20 May in that yr. I suspect this person to be the same as preced. for the bapt. names in very many rec are confus. EDWARD, Duxbury 1665, Winsor supposes to be s. of the preced. EDWARD, Amesbury, sw. fidel. 20 Dec. 1677. ENOCH, Weymouth 1640, blacksmith came from Lee, a parish in Bucks, near Wendover, had, perhaps, been at Newport 1639; but at W. had Sarah, b. 4 July 1640; after some yrs. went home, leav. here Ephraim, wh. 18 Nov. 1652, had admin. of est. of [[500]] his f. prob. dec. in Eng.

EPHRAIM, Rehoboth 1644, eldest s. of the first Enoch, b. in Eng. at Wendover, I think had childr. perhaps by w. Sarah Barker, at R. rem. to Weymouth there by w. Ebbet or Ebbot had prob. William, b. 1655; certain. Enoch, 29 Mar. 1657 or 1658; and prob. others not in the rec. bef. Joseph, 18 May 1670, was freem. 1671; and was capt. His will of 14 Jan. 1681, pro. 7 Apr. 1687, calls hims. sen. gives the unusual name of his w. and ment. eldest s.

Martha, d. of James Neighbors, had John, b. 24 Mar. 1676; and Martha, 5 June 1678; and ano. d. JOHN, Boston, mariner, was tak. by the French, and in the prison at Rochefort, made his will 22 Jan. 1690, pro. by a return. fellow-prison. 13 Feb. 1691, in wh. he gives all to his Mehitable, or, if she were d. to his br.

Judge Sewall, wh. calls him "an honest man and solid Christian." * JONATHAN, Northampton, perhaps s. of John, b. in Eng. or perhaps at Salem, where tradit. would fix his f. as a sett. three yrs. bef. the s. was b. but the evidence is deficient, that his f. was ever in our country; m. 3 Sept. 1662, Clemence, d. of Thomas Hosmer of Hartford, had Thomas, b. 23 June 1663; Jonathan, 1664, d. soon; Jonathan, again, perhaps 20 June 1666; John, 22 Dec. 1667, d. unm. 1713; Hannah, 7 Jan. 1669; Clemence, 8 Jan. 1672; Ebenezer, 3 May 1674, d. soon; Ebenezer, again, 6 or 27 Feb. 1676; Mary, 24 Mar. 1680; Sarah, 20 July 1682; and Samuel, 15 Sept. 1684; was freem. 1680, deac. and was a gr.s. of Gov.

PETER, Rehoboth, call. jr. prob. s. of the preced. was lieut. and his s. Daniel was bur. 15 Sept. 1673. Perhaps as sec. w. he m. 24 Dec. 1673, Rebecca Paine; and he liv. not long if the Paine Fam. Geneal. be right, wh. makes Samuel Peck m. Rebecca Paine, d. of the sec. Stephen. RALPH, Newtown, L. I. 1656, adm. freem. of Conn. 1664; d. 1677. His s. Ralph, Edward, John, and Samuel, were valua. inhabs. and he had two ds. Ann, and mary, d. Ann m. Theophilus Phillips. Branches of this fam. are at Jamaica, L. I. and Newtown, L. I. and one went to N. J. Riker, 83. RICHARD, Boston, by w. Mary had Richard, b. 4 Aug. 1676, d. young; and Richard, again, 3 Oct. 1680. He d. 26 Sept. 1682, aged a. 48 yrs. says the gr.stone, wh. tells that he was from Portsmouth, in Co. Hants, and to his w. Mary was giv. admin. 5 Feb. 1683.

THOMAS, Boston, by w. Joanna had Thomas, b. 30 Oct. 1677; and I suppose the same by w. Mary, had Thomas, 21 Aug. 1681; Priscilla, 11 Apr. 1688; Mary, 11 Oct. 1690; Sarah. 9 Dec. 1692; Joanna, 29 Mar. 1695; Martha, 26 Jan. 1697; Jabez, 5 Apr. 1698; and Elizabeth 2 Apr. 1700.

Elizabeth d. 27 Dec. 1661. He rem. to Marlborough, m. 1664 Mercy, wid. of Edmund Rice, wh. had been wid. of Thomas Brigham, whose maiden name was Hurd; d. Oct. 1667. The will of 21st of that mo. names d. Elizabeth Barnes, cous. Potter, and William, s. of his s. Samuel. This gr.s. was, perhaps, a soldier in the comp. of capt. Turner, at Northampton 1676. WILLIAM, Boston, by w. Sarah had Thomas, b. 23 Mar. 1682; and Ann, 23 Feb. 1686. WILLIAM, Weymouth, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 8 Feb. 1688; and William, 17 May 1693. ZACCHEUS, HULL, freem. 1680. Nineteen of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and twenty-one at the rest of the N. E. coll. Calamy, II. 747, says, a min. of this name wh. had been sett. in Wroxall, Co. Warwick, came after eject. to N. E. but does not give the time; and as no such person is ever told of on our side of the water, it may be a mistake, or he must have gone to some S. col. HUNTER, JOHN, New Haven 1644, d. 1648, or early next yr. prob. without fam. gave his little prop. to Sarah, w. of Willilam Meaker, Mary, wid. of William Preston, and to Peter Mallory. His inv. was only £19. ROBERT, Ipswich, freem. 7 Oct. 1640, had w. Mary, but no ch. as from his will, 1647, is infer. by Coffin. Ano. ROBERT, Ipswich, had there sev. ch. of wh. Thomas was eldest, d. early in 1687. THOMAS, Marblehead 1653, perhaps s. of the preced. THOMAS, Springfield 1678. WILLIAM, Boston, m. 30 Jan. 1657, Cicely, wh. prob. d. soon; and by w.

Joseph Cowell. Perhaps this man was passeng. in the Blessing, emb. at London, July 1635, aged 11, with Christian, 20; Elizabeth 18; and Thomas, 14, prob. all under the care of some friend of a diff. name. WILLIAM, Springfield, by w.

Mary Buckner, wh. had been, perhaps, wid. of William Jay; Esther m. 26 Dec. 1649, Nathaniel Fisher; and one wh. m. John Peck of Rehoboth. Much of this detail is obt. from will of the w. Esther, 4 Jan. 1676, made with cons. and confirm. of her h. and pro. 12 Feb. 1685, in wh. John is call. oldest s. the childr. of her dec. d. Ware, and others are ment. as Samuel, her s. of Charlestown, and his w. Hannah; Esther, d. of s.-in-law John Peck of Rehoboth; and a legacy of some amt. from her br.

Samuel, "a capt. of the King's life guard, much in his favor." Of this absurdity a hardihood of conject. may suggest, that it means capt. of the guard of the royal prison. during his sad confinem. at Carisbrook castle. See Geneal. Reg.

Parsons calls Apr. 1690. On the rec. sometimes the name is Hollibut, recently smoothed to Hollabird. JOSEPH, Woodbury, prob. s. of Thomas of Wethersfield, had, as Cothren teaches, w. Mary, wh. d. 2 Feb. 1712; and he adds, that his ch. Joseph, John, and Sarah, all adult, were bapt.

HURST, JAMES, Plymouth 1632, a tanner, erect. the first works in the town for that object, a. 1640; one of the purch. of Dartmouth; was deac. d. Dec. 1657. His will of 10th of that mo. gave ho. to his w. whose bapt. name is not well made out by Winsor, tho. he is confident of its resembl. to Gartend, and, I doubt not, it was Catharine, appoints her extrix. and names no ch. but gr.ch. John, Gershom, James, Eleazer, Hannah, and Patience Cobb, and Mary Dunham, w. of Jonathan, all ch. of his d. Patience, w. of the first Henry Cobb. JOHN, Boston, by w.

Lake, brot. into Court 25 Apr. foll. by William Brenton, renders it prob. that he was of Boston. Neither of the four goodmen seem to have enjoy. Christian names.

Six of this name had, in 1829, been gr. at N. E. coll. HUTCHINSON, BENJAMIN, Salem vill. perhaps s. of Joseph, of wh. all I can find is the exploit of strik. at a spectre as in one of the witchcr. trials, 1692, was testif.

His adm. into the ch. was in Oct. the same mo. with Leverett and Brenton, and a mo. earlier than Quincy and Hough; freem. 4 Mar. 1634, had bapt. here John, 31 Aug. 1634; and Ichabod (it being in the worst of the antinom. controv.) 3 Sept. 1637. He is in the ch. rec. call. senr. was one of the princ. men, whose heresy made it necessary to disarm them in 1637, unless his neph. of the same name be thus honor.; and withdrew from the "sanguine cloud" that overcast the whole sky of Mass. going to Rhode Island with his fam. shortly after the b. of this last ch. and perhaps soon after to Eng. whence he never came back. * || EDWARD, Boston, eldest s. of William, call. junr. to disting. him from his uncle, the preced. came bef. his parents, a single man, adm. of the ch. 10 Aug. and freem. 3 Sept. 1634, ar. co. 1638, a capt. 1657, rep. 1658, and serv. in import. rank in Philip's war 1675, in wh. on 2 Aug. he rec. wound from Ind. in treacherous assault, says history, when he was march. to a peaceful meet. with them, of wh. he d. 19th at Marlborough, aged 62, as the gr.stone says. He was, with his uncle and father, among the first sett. at Newport, forming their covenant 7 Mar. 1638, but in few yrs. prefer.

Memoir as to date of m. yet follows that auth. in giv. only three ch. to the sec. w. where he is wrong, and disagrees with him, where he is right, in parentage of the s.

Gov. Hutch. confus. him with his uncle Richard, wh. by the ordin. of Parl. 27 July 1649 was made one of the sixteen mem. of the Soc. for Prop. the Gosp. See Scobell's Acts, or Hutch. I. 164. He [[512]] was a wealthy ironmonger in Cheapside, and his loss by the great fire of 1666, was, it is said by Hutch. £60,000. After large investigat. I have conclud. that Hutch. was in error, in assuring us, that Richard, a br. of William, was ever in Boston, and that he mistook this s. of William for the elder Richard, his uncle.

SAMUEL, Boston, br. of William, a bachelor, is not kn. long here, and perhaps did not live here many yrs. bef. his d. but had gr. of ld. 20 May 1638, at R. I. whither he went, no doubt, with his br. William, and had been assoc. with his br. Wheelwright in purch. from Ind. at Exeter and Wells. In his will of 17 Apr. pro. 16 July 1667, gives copious proof of his knowledge of brs. and sis. and their childr. as Samuel, eldest s. of sis. Wheelwright, and her six ds. Elizabeth Person, Catharine Nayler, Mary Lyde, Rebecca Maverick, Hannah Checkley, and Sarah, perhaps unm. as her surname is omit.; beside Edward Rishworth, eldest s. of that R. wh. had m. a sis. of the testat.; next, the seven ch. nam. them, of my cousin [i. e. niece], Faith Savage dec. then cous.

By the Edit. in our days of the Memoirs of Col. John Hutchinson, the regicide, writ. by the charming pen of his Lady Lucy, a tradit. is giv. that one of the gr.s. of the warlike puritan emigr.

But the common looseness of tradit. and the unusual carelessness of the Rev. publisher, in his story of seeing somebody from the W. world, wh. told him of the venerat. in wh. that gent.'s descend. were held on our side of the Atlantic, are equally unworthy of regard. Thirteen of this name had been gr. at Harv. in 1770, and none since. HUTHWIT, JOHN, Woodbury, came with sis.

Martha, 1 1/2; had more ch. here, and d. 1639; his wid. m. 1645, Robert Burrows, and d. 1672. WILLIAM, the freem. of 1650, was, perhaps, of Dorchester, then, but certain. of Boston, liv. at Rumney Marsh, now Chelsea, 1654, and constable 1656. IRESON, BENJAMIN, or BENONI, Lynn, s. of Edward, m. 1 Aug. 1680, Mary Leach, had Edward, b. Apr. 1681, d. in few days. But descend. of other ch. still contin. says Lewis, wh. calls the name of f.

A passeng. in the Elizabeth from Ipswich 1634, aged 36, nam. Rebecca Isaac, may have been his sis. but then we must infer, that he was in the country earlier by two yrs. at least, than we kn. of; and a fam. of this name is at Norwalk, honor. in sev. generat. as gr. at Yale, but it is believ. that their pedigree on this side of the ocean must not be found bef. the 18th centu.

We may believe, that he brot. elder ch. from Eng. for his will of 20 Dec. 1683, pro. 7 Oct. foll. names s.-in-law John Polley, whose w. Susanna must have been b. bef. either of those nam. as must also the mo. of his gr.ch. Healy wh. is also ment. Other s.-in-law was Lewis Allen; and Hannah m. 8 Jan. 1668, James Hubbard, as his sec. w. Yet Healy, the gr.ch. is nam. by him Nathaniel, and his mo. was Grace, d. of Nicholas Buttry, third w. of William, whose first was Grace, also, 1). in Eng,. and to me it seems prob. that she was d. of Miles Ives.

His wid. m. 1648, William Bassett. This surname is made Joes by Mr. Drake, in Geneal. Reg. XIV. 324, as by me it had been in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 273; but my dilig. London correspond. had correct. the name to Ives, as in 3 M. H. C. X. 130, on wh. Drake says, he cannot tortue it into Ives, tho. to me it seems a beter name than Joes. Let the New Haven readers decide. Always in old pr. or wr. the first two letters of this name are subj. to the variab. interchang. I for J, and J for I, U for V, and V for U. Eleven of this name had, in 1828, been gr. at Yale. IVEY, JAMES, Braintree, d. 3 Mar. 1654, prob. without w. or ch. for is will gives £5 to the min.

His will of 2 May 1675, pro. 28 July foll. names elder ch. Samuel, Jeremiah, and Hannah Andrews, provides mainten. for five younger, Sarah, Martha, Susanna, Edmund, and Mary; made w.

Edward, tho. he refers to the fac-simile of his signature, plain eno. on p. 243. His wid. d. soon and eldest s. Samuel, act. as admor. under the will. He was freem. 25 May 1636, and prob. came from old Boston. EDMUND, Boston, m. 27 Oct. 1660, Elizabeth Pilkington, if there be no error in the rec. of wh. I have strong suspicion that the date is too late by one yr. and also that he is the same person as the preced. for I find not any other of the same name, but EDMUND, Weymouth, wh. by w. Mary had Samuel, b. 22 July 1691, and may have rem. to Abington. * EDWARD, Cambridge, a nailer from Whitechapel parish in London, where liv. his f. Christopher; was bapt. 3 Feb. 1604, or 5, at [[528]] Stepney, came a. 1643, caus. entry on our County rec. of a certif. from the Treasr. under Ordin. of the two ho. of Parliam. at Westminster, that he had brot. in for them light gold and money to amt. of £40. on 7 Sept. 1642, and again £22.10 on 12 Oct. and again £32.10 on Feb. foll. In an Indent. betw. the Right Honor. Sir Richard Saltonstall, knt. Lord Mayor of London, and two other Commisrs. of her Majesty, 40th yr. of Queen Elizabeth and the parties deput. to collect the first of three subsidies grant. by Parliam. the yr preced. bear. date 1 Oct. 1598, for the rat. of St. Helen's Parish, Bishopgate Ward, I find the names of Edward Jackson, John Alsop, and Thomas Child (all in a foll. generat. repeat. among N. E. peop.) chargeab. with William Shakspeare, the great poet of humanity, as liable with others to that rate. Among the details of minute circumstances in the life of our immortal bard by a score of pens, I do not recollect, that his resid. in that parish of London is ment. He was freem. 1645, purch. 1646 the beautif. farm of 500 acres from Gov. Bradstreet, for £140, wh. had been sold to him for six cows by Thomas Mayhew, in 1638, bef he went to the Vineyard, rep. 1647 and 15 yrs. more, sev. times honor. with notice as the aid of apostle Eliot in the evangElizabeth of the Ind. d. 17 July 1681 in 77th yr. perhaps, tho. the gr.st. whose accuracy I distrust, says, aged 79 yrs. 5 mos. mak. large gift of Id. in Billerica to Harv. Coll. He liv. in what was call. the village, now Newton. By his first w. brot. prob. from Eng. nam. Frances, he had, says the fam. tradit. four s. and four ds. but we may doubt the story, as names of only six that were there bapt. are furnish.; and yet others may have been b. to him after that rec. On the parish rec. of bapt. at Whitechapel, Mr. Somerby found Israel, 9 Mar. 1631, wh. d. in infancy; Margaret, 1 Jan. 1633; Hannah, 1 May 1634; Rebecca, 12 Oct. 1636; Caleb, 10 Oct. 1638; and Joseph, 13 Sept. 639. In favor of the tradit. one may add Jonathan; Sebas, wh. was b. on the pass. from Eng. it is said; and Frances, wh. d. 5 Oct. 1648; but that this was his w. is far more prob. tho. the histor. of Newton counts her the ch. His sec. w. m. 14 Mar. 1649, was Elizabeth d. of John Newgate of Boston, wid. of John Oliver, the scholar (wh. d. 30 Sept. 1709 at a good age, even if deduct. from the report of 91 yrs. be allow.) by wh. he had Sarah, 5 Jan. bapt. at Boston 21 Apr. 1650; Edward, 15 Dec. 1652; Lydia, 1656; Elizabeth 28 Apr. 1658; ano.

EDWARD, Cambridge, [[529]] in the village, br. of Abraham, was k. by the Ind. at Medfield, I suppose, on 21 Feb. 1676, in Philip's war. * EDWARD, Newton, s. of the first Edward, and the only one by his sec. w. freem. 1685, by w. Grace had Edward, b. 25 Dec. 1681, d. young; and his w. d. 8 Apr. 1685. He next m.

He was rep. 1702, deac. and d. 30 Sept. 1727. His wid. Abigail d. 1746, aged 83. EDWARD, Newton, eldest s. of Sebas of the same, by w.

His wid. d. 1753. GEORGE, Marblehead, went, says Farmer, as surgeon in the wild Canada exped. of Phips 1690, but outliv. it, had w. Mary, and bot. a farm in Scituate 1702. HENRY, Watertown 1637, one of the lessees of the fishing wear at that place, perhaps was freem. of Fairfield 1669, had large est. may be the man, wh. came from London, 1635, aged 29, in the Elizabeth and Ann, for no other of the name can I find earlier. JAMES, Charlestown 1640, but Frothingham says no more. JAMES, PATRICK, and RICHARD, unhappy Scotch prisoners from the gr. battle of Worcester, 3 Sept. 1651, sent over hither in the John and Sarah, on board of wh. in Nov. they were laden, and disembog. at Boston in May foll. to be sold, all d. I doubt not, speedily, of broken heart or other malady. But at Dover was one JAMES, tax. 1659 and 61. JOHN, Salem, had gr. of ld. 1637, says Felt, came prob. in 1635 from London, in the Blessing, aged 40; with w. Margaret, 36; and s. John, 2; suffer. loss of his ho. by fire Oct. 1636, as told by Winthrop I. 200, and may have been the "godly man," sav. from shipwr. as he also tells, II. 19; was a fisherman, acc. the custom ho. rec. perhaps the freem. 2 June 1641, tho. not so prob. as that the Ipswich man was he; for the first John liv. 7 yrs. at Gloucester, there sold his est. 1662.

JOHN, Derby 1694-1706, had preach. in Haddam, as early as 1683; by Mather, in Hecatompolis, erron. mark. as bred at Harv. but he is not in the Catal. of alumni, yet may be the gent. to wh. in 1710 was giv. A. M. being the third honor. degr. ever conf. by the Inst. and by Farmer he was thot. s. of Rev. Thomas of Charlestown, but Dr. Field inf. us, p. 69, that he was "suppos. to be a native of Wales"; and Dr. Stiles had informat. that he came from Eng. was "devot. to books," and d. at Wethersfield, 10 Aug. 1729, hav. there liv. in priv. some yrs. This Stiles deriv. prob. from MS. of Rev. Mr. Mix, min. of Wethersfield at the date of d. of James, and above thirty-five yrs. earlier; and M. call. him "a very good man, with a very ungraceful deliv." That the first min. of Charlestown might have s. John liv. to that date should not be full ground of conject. but it obt. no support from the name in Frothingham, 183, among the householders of 1678, Thomas James, for this is found by severe inspect. to be Thomas Jones. This John, prob. left no descend. or Mix would have ment. the names. JOSEPH, Fairfield 1674, d. bef. Jan. 1688, leav. wid. Mary, and d. Mary, wh. m. Nathan Adams. PHILIP, Hingham, prob. br. of Francis; came 1638, in the Diligent, with w. four ch. and two serv.

He d. soon after, and his wid. m. 14 Feb. 1640, George Russell. RALPH, Weymouth 1650, may be thot. the man wh. m. 17 Apr. of that yr. at Plymouth, Mary Fuller; d. perhaps of Samuel of the Mayflower. SAMUEL, Scituate, thot. by Deane to be f. of William. THOMAS, Charlestown, bred at Emanuel Coll. Cambridge, where he had his degr. 1614 and 1618, had preach. in Co. Lincoln, where prob. he was b. came in the William and Francis 1632, arr. 5 June, with w. Elizabeth and prob. s. Thomas; freem. 6 Nov. 1632; had John, bapt. 9 June or 6 Jan. 1633, the first bapt. of that ch. says Budington, 35; but the less trusty town rec. makes the b. 18 Jan. and I kn. not any other ch. at C. His ordin. for the serv. of those wh. had 14 Oct. been dism. from Boston ch. to found the new one was on Friday 2 Nov. 1632, and bef. the end of next yr. a spirit of discord or jealousy was so active, that as early as Mar. 1636 he was dism. After few yrs. he went to New Haven, where in Nov. 1639 a lot was gr. to him; made a freem. of that Col. 1640; he had Nathaniel, bapt. 1 Aug. 1641; thence, on 7 Oct. 1642, sail. to Virginia, in comp. with Knowles and Tomson, but came back in June foll. and bef. 1648 went home, bec. min. of Needham, in Co. Suffolk, and so cont. until the gr. day of eject. in 1662, but pass. the remainder of his days there, and was liv. in 1678, then a. 85 yrs. old, and Hubbard, wh. gives this acco. thinks he might bc, when he wrote [[537]] two or three yrs. later.

THOMAS, Providence 1637, one of the found. of the first Bapt. ch. a physician, strong friend of Williams, a good serv. in the cause of humanity, as is seen in the Hist. of Bradford, 364, and Winthrop I. 268. THOMAS, Dedham, may be the man wh. had gr. of ld. at Salem 1638, and the same, wh. m. at Plymouth, 17 Apr. 1650, Mary Fuller, perhaps d. of the beloved physician of the Mayflower. He came from Marlborough, Co. Wilts, Apr. 1635 by the James from Southampton, whose name, Mr. Somerby, in Geneal. Reg. V. 440, says is misprint. Thomas Davyes in 3 Hist. Coll. VIII. 319. This, if correct, is an unusual carelessn. in me, wh. may tax the ingenuity of readers to acco. for. If I understand Mr. S. the error is not on my page, for DrakeÕs later copy in Geneal. Reg. XIV. 333, agrees wholly with mine. Yet neither of us have that surname; and I feel sure, that much less than half of the names of passeng. on that voyage by that sh. were report. at the custom-ho. By w. Margaret he had John, b. 16 May 1641; and perhaps soon rem. back to S. for there he was liv. 1659.

WILLIAM, wh. req. 10 Oct. 1630 to be adm. freem. but never took the o. had prob. come in the fleet with Winthrop and, perhaps, went home bef. May foll. as did, I suppose, Edmund, possib. his br. Felt thinks him the same, wh. had gr. of ld. at Salem 1637. But this man it seems more likely came in the Lion, arr. 16 Sept. 1632. Either of these Williams may have been the planter at Kittery 1651. WILLIAM, Portsmouth, R. I. on the list of freem. 1655, may have been s. of Thomas of Providence; but it is more prob. he had been of Salem ch. and was excom. with thirteen others, as by Hugh Peter triumphant. in his let. to ch. of Dorchester 1 July 1639, relat. in full. Hutch. I. 421. Felt, in his list of memb. of the Ch. thot. it his duty to omit the whole. WILLIAM, Scituate 1673, had w. Mehitable, but no ch.

His inv. of Sept. in that yr. was £69, in his will nam. w. Susanna, and d. ElizabethFelt would count him of Salem. JARVIS, JOHN, Boston, merch. d. 24 Sept. 1656; but prob. he was only trans. visit.

His w. unit. with the ch. in Apr. of next yr. but tho. in the great relig. schism, I do not find him so promin. as to be public. censur. yet he rem. with the disaffect. to R.

Endicot, prob. first at Cape Ann, and may have drift. along shore to Manchester, early call. Jeffry's creek, or as far as Salem, and Felt claims him for Ipswich, but of course this would be some yrs. later. He desir. adm. 19 Oct. 1630, and was sw. freem. 18 May foll. I think he may have had Mary, b. 20 Mar. 1642, and tradit. gives him s. John. He may be the br. of Robert, wh. was on R. I. 1638, and certain. is seen in the list of freem. at Newport 1655, where he d. 2 Jan. 1675, aged 84. From his will of 8 Dec. 1674, refer. to his mo. Audry J. late of Chittingly, Co. Sussex, it may be presum. that he came from that shire; it names his w. Mary, eldest d. Mary, w. of John Green of N.; s. Thomas, ds.

OTIS, Dartmouth 1686, prob. a gr.s. of the first John, but whether s. of John or of Samuel is unkn. and it may be, that he was a gr.s. of one of them.

After liv. some time at Charlestown, or Salem, or other planta. to satisfy hims. he went home to bring his w.

See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 276. With his gr. devot. to the cause of relig. for wh. he aband. nat. ld. and good est. it is strange we kn. not to wh. of the chhs. here he join. bef. the gather. of his own at W. and ordin. of his min. in Nov. 1642, about all of wh. he is so very partic. in his Hist. that none can doubt his sincerity of puritan.

Susanna; and [[551]] John, s. of John Amee, or Eames, and his eldest d. whose name, I think, was Martha. I suppose George and John went to fatherland. EDWARD, York, adm. freem. of Mass. 1652, with prefix of resp. and in later days, I think, liv. at Wells, was in high esteem by all parties in their time of confus. from 1656 to 80, and after that sw. alleg. to Charlestown; in a depon. 1678, tak. by William Symonds he calls hims. 82 yrs. Perhaps he was f. of that Edward, tho. he may be the same, unfavor. ment. in Winthrop II. 210. EDWARD, Woburn, eldest s. of capt. Edward, b. in Eng. in the latter days of King James, freem. 2 May 1638, yet I see not, of what ch. he was memb. m. 10 Jan. 1650, Catharine Baker, had Edward, b. 5 Nov. 1650; and Catharine; perhaps he rem. to Charlestown, and had John, bapt. 10 Apr. 1664; and prob. no more, and d. 15 Sept. 1692, "upwards of 70." EDWARD, Charlestown, prob. s. of the preced. m. 24 May 1675, by w. Miriam Holbrook had William, Ebenezer, and Susanna, all bapt. 18 Nov. 1688; and perhaps Abigail, 19 Feb. 1693. EDWARD, Branford, m. Esther, d. of Thomas Wheaden, had Elizabeth b. 1690; Amos, 1693; Experience, 1695; Edward, 1697; Esther, 1700; and Ebenezer, 1703. EDWARD, Woburn, s. of William, freem. 1684, m. 12 Jan. 1687, Sarah, d. of Samuel Walker, had Edward, b. 12 Oct. 1687, d. at three mos.; Edward, again, 4 May 1689; and by sec. w.

FRANCIS, Salem 1630, freem. 18 May 1631, perhaps br. of capt. Edward, and may have come with him, was neph. of Christopher Coulson (an Assist. chos. at the first elect. after the chart. 13 May 1629, wh. had contrib. freely to the com. fund of the comp. but not intend. to emigr. was in Oct. foll. excus.). He brot. order from his uncle to take up his ld. in ratio of the stock, but fail. to obt. it, tho. in 1660 Felt says he petit. for it. His o. 29 June 1668, shows he was a. 60 yrs. old. See Geneal.

He was a lieut. and gave his planta. at that part made Marblehead, the stile of Brooksby. Prob. his w. d. in few yrs. more, and he m. at Boston, 24 Oct. 1656, Hannah, wid. I presume, of William Hanbury; may be the F. Johnson in Frothingham's list of 1677, at Charlestown (certain. not entit. in 1648 to the double name of Walsingham giv. him by Dana), was 82 yrs. old in 1686, and d. 3 Feb. 1691, prob. at Boston. FRANCIS, Andover, s. of Stephen, m. 1 Feb. 1694, Sarah Hawkes. HUMPHREY, Roxbury, s. of John, m. 20 Mar. 1643, Ellen Cheney, had Mehitable, b. Sept. 1644, bapt. 29 Mar. 1646; Martha, bapt. 12 Sept. 1647; and Deborah, 20 [[552]] Jan. 1650; rem. to Scituate, there had John, b. Mar. 1653; Joseph, 24 June 1655; Benjamin, 27 Aug. 1657; and Margaret, Dec. 1659; may have had ano. w. at Hingham, and by her Joseph, again, 1676; and Isaac, at S. 1677. But he came back to R. and m. 6 Dec. 1678, Abigail May, and had John, again, 17 Nov. 1679. Yet, that this was ano. man is highly prob. and the younger Humphrey was one of the soldiers draft. from Hingham for Narraganset campaign in the comp. of brave capt. Johnson of Roxbury. à ISAAC, Salem, s. of Abraham, gr.s. of Robert of Clipsham, Co. Rutland (wh. was arch deac. of Leicester, 1584, and parson of North Luffenham in said Co. whose lineal descend. Ezekiel, in 1727, was lord of the manor of Clipsham); and his mo. w. of Abraham, was a d. of William Chadderton, D. D. the puritan Bp. of Lincoln. A very remarka. paper, in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 360, calls his mo. Ann Meadows, d. of Robert of Stamford; and an orig. will, made by him 28 Apr. 1627, it is said, confirms the fact by refer. to his gr.f. Robert M. He had larger est. than any of the patentees that came to our country; was an Assist. nam. in the royal chart. next to Sir Richard Saltonstall, and in the list of mem. of the Boston ch. form. at Charlestown, stands after Winthrop and Dudley, and bef. Wilson their min. He came with Winthrop in the admiral sh. of the fleet, formerly nam. the Eagle, but after purch. by the Gov. and Comp. for this exped. call. Arbella, in complim. to the illustr. passeng. his w. She was one of the ds. of Thomas Clinton, third Earl of Lincoln, and sis. of Theophilus the fourth Earl, ancest. of the present Duke of Newcastle, whose eldest s. by courtesy, has, therefore, the style of Earl of L.; and left, says, Mather, I. 21, in one of the few happy passages of his work, "An earthly paradise in the fam. of an Earldom to encounter the sorrows of a wilderness, for the entertainments of a pure worship in the ho. of God; and then immediately left that wilderness for the heavenly paradise." She d. in few wks. after landing at Salem, and was bur. there; and in a. one mo. he foll. her, prob. to the same spot, bef. the settlem. of Boston. A splendid myth as to his place of burial has possess. of the common credul. His will, made less than a mo. bef. embark. in wh. he made the ever memor. John Hampden one of his excors. with Winthrop and Dudley, beside two Eng. neighb. may be read in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 244. Prince, in his Ann. gives the tradit. acco. from Ch. J. Sewall of his having ho. in such a part of his lot, to wh. he had rem. wh. is now the chief square of Boston, and of being inter. at the upper end, &c. &c. But as no earlier authority ever eludes to such a fact, and as Sewall was not b. for near two and twenty yrs. after the event, and came not here from Eng. for a. nine yrs. more, the prob. is far greater, that the tradit. is worthless; and that after the d. of Johnson, 30 Sept. 1630, wh. was earlier than any even the meanest cottage could be rear. on this peninsula since their com. and bef. Winthrop or Wilson hall cross. from Charlestown, where he d. the corpse was either bur. there, or, if rem. at [[553]] all, was transport. by water to Salem to be laid alongside of his noble partner. Nearly exact approxim. to that spot is kn. and Mr. Drake, the ardent auth. of the Hist. of Boston, p. 91, asks, why a monum. has not been rear. to designate it. In a note on p. 71, he says, "I have myself an engraved portrait of the lady"; but I fear it must not be thot. origin. or certain. his possession would be much envied. Without seeing the picture, I venture to suggest, that it refers to some other person, and that the possessor imposed on hims. a fond imagina. for reality. See Young's Chron. 318. He left no ch. and as his w. was too ill to leave Salem, no doubt he accomp. her. At least we kn. that he was abs. at the first Ct. of Assist. 23 Aug. and present at that of 7 Sept. both at Charlestown, but not attend. the next in that mo. and indeed bur. prob. bef. its close. If, as I presume, he never lodg. (on our side of the Atlantic) out of the place of first landing, unless it might be a single night bef. or after the magistr. Aug. Ct. all weight of probabil. is in favor of Salem, rather than Boston. Drake, p. 99, has put forth an opposite opin. and seems to rely solely on Sewall, wh. was a ch. when first brot. from Eng. above thirty yrs. after the d. of Johnson in whose honor the tradit. was gradual. elaborat. and perpetua. by the credulity, not the judgment of Prince. Very curious paper by his f. may be read in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 359. *|| ISAAC, Roxbury, eldest s. of John of the same, b. in Eng. freem. 4 Mar. 1635, m. 20 Jan. 1637, Elizabeth Porter, had Elizabeth b. 24 Dec. foll.

JOHN, Charlestown, s. of John of the same, m. on the same day with his f. 8 Sept. 1680, Mary, d. prob. of Thomas Mousall. JOHN, Oxford, one of the Huguenots, wh. prob. came, 1686, from Rochelle in France, after the persecut. begun the yr. bef. and wrote his name Jean Jeanson, had w.

JOSEPH, Charlestown, s. of the first William, m. 19 Apr. 1664, Mary, perhaps d. of Manus Sally, but had sec. w. Hannah bef. 1681, JOSEPH, Lancaster, d. 17 Apr. 1668, leav. wid. Susanna. MARMADUKE, Cambridge 1661, printer, sent over by the Soc. for Prop. the Gospel to put Eliot's Ind. Bible to press, ought to have more told of him, than that he was sick of his resid. here, and went home in 1664, a little bef. finish. the work. No doubt the governm. of the coll. were well pleas. to be rid of him at first, yet in 1674 he was again chos. printer; whether he had come back from his native ld. and here solicit. patronage is not certain. kn. but may reasonab. be believ. We can boldly presume, that it was not on acco. of re-impress. of the Ind. Bible, for that work in the sec. Ed. did not appear bef. 1685; and he [[556]] had, I think, d. long time bef. as his inv. is of date 24 Apr. 1676. * MATTHEW, Woburn, s. of Capt. Edward, b. in Eng. m. 12 Nov. 1656, Hannah, d. of Peter Palfrey, wh. d. 1 Aug. 1662, and 23 Oct. foll. m.

MOSES, Stratford, is thot. to be that s. of Peter, b. by his mo. when imprison. 1650 or 1, m. a. 1676, Mary, d. of Robert Rose, had Rebecca, bapt. 8 Apr. 1677, d. young,; Zeruiah, b. 30 Apr. 1682; Rebecca, again, bapt.

Perhaps he rem. to Marlborough, was freem. 1690. NATHANIEL, Medfield, m. 14 Nov. 1671, Mary d. of John Plimpton; d. in Marlborough, prob. 24 July 1718, in 80th yr. NATHANIEL, Charlestown, householder 1678, may have been s. of William, for his name in the list stands next to that of the wid. He had m. 24 Nov. 1668, Joanna Long, and d. 1678.

We find not the occasion of the imprison. of the w. wh. was very long, but conject. is, that she was insane, that the ch. was posthum. nam. Moses, and had elder brs. John, and Ebenezer. John d. in 1659, his minor brs. were heirs. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 209, 222, 6, and 32.

SAMUEL, Boston, a mariner, by w. Mary had Peter, b. 2 July 1653; and d. 19 Mar. foll. ano.

He may hav. tak. o. of fidel. at Dartmouth 1684. SAMUEL, York 1680, was, perhaps, s. of Edward of the same, and took o. of alleg. soon after him. SAMUEL, New Haven, a propr. in 1685 was prob. a gr.s. of Robert. SAMUEL, one of the soldiers in Gallop's comp. 1690, in the sad expedit. of Sir William Phips, of wh. no more is kn.

He d. 30 Nov. 1690. THOMAS, Hartford, a cobbler, as the rec. of his admin. 1640, calls him. THOMAS, Hingham 1635, came, perhaps, in the Hopewell, capt.

Perhaps he took sec. w. 18 Feb. 1692, Mary Cook. He [[559]] was rep. 1674, 6-83, a milit. offic. of every rank, exc. the highest, an Assist. 1684 till the usurp. by the King of our chart. rights, and, on overthrow of Andros, 1689, one of the Com'tee of safety, a generous and sturdy support. of old chart. so no favorite (Hutch.

Esther m. 17 Dec. 1685, Seth Wyman, and d. 31 Mar. 1742. WILLIAM, Wallingford 1670, perhaps s. of Robert, prob. rem. to New Haven, there had w. Sarah, and was propr. 1685. Ano. WILLIAM, New Haven, perhaps s. of the first John, had fourteen ch. but the mo. is unkn.; William; Abraham, b. 10 Mar. 1669; Abigail, 6 Dec. 1670; Isaac, 27 Oct. 1672; Jacob, 25 Sept. 1674; John, and Sarah, tw. 6 Nov. 1676; Samuel, 3 Sept. 1678; Mary, 1 Apr. 1680; Lydia, 7 Jan. 1682; Elizabeth 11 Jan. 1684, d. next mo.; Hope, and Elizabeth tw. 10 May 1685, of wh.

WILLIAM, Charlestown, perhaps s. of William of the same, by w. Sarah Burrage, d. of John, m. 5 Apr. 1682, had Joanna, b. 22, bapt. 26 Oct. 1684; John, 11 Sept. 1685; WILLIAM, Woburn, prob. s. of William of the same, had w.

WINGLE, or WINDLE, New Haven, m. Dec. 1664, Sarah, d. of John Hall, had William, b. 15 Sept. 1665; and John, 20 July 1667; was freem. 1669. ZECHARIAH, Charlestown 1672, s. of William, by w.

Of this name the occurrence is so freq. in all parts of N. E. that out of inq. confin. exclus. to it, a large vol. would grow. Perhaps even some stocks may have escap. my research. The first person in N. E. guilty of the impossib. crime of witchcraft, and exec. at Hartford, was a Johnson of Windsor; and one of the most disting. was Rev. Samuel, b. at Guilford, 14 Oct. 1696, the first Presid. of King's Coll. at New York, wh. d. 6 Jan. 1772. Sometimes, but rarely, this name appears Johnstone. Ten of the name had been gr. at Harv. in 1834, of wh. three were clerg. and forty-eight at other N. E. coll. of wh. twenty-one were clerg. JOHONNOT, ANDREW, Boston, distiller, s. of Daniel, m. a. 1730, Mary, d. of Anthony Oliver; whose Huguenot name, as he spelt it, was Anthoine Olivier, had Mary, b. 1730; Daniel, 1732; Andrew, 1735; Francis, wh. d. young; Susanna, 1738; Margaret, 1740; Martha, 1750; William, 1752; Elizabeth Aug. 1754, d. next yr.; Oliver, Sept. 1755, d. next yr.; beside six more, wh. d. inf.

DANIEL, Boston, a Huguenot youth, b. a. 1668, came from Rochelle, in France, attending his uncle Andrew Sigourney, prob. in [[560]] 1686, and liv. at Oxford with those other noble exiles, until driv. away by the Ind. in Aug. 1696, when he says. tradit. that may in this case be nearer the truth than common, his cousin Susan Johnson, whose h. and three ch. were then k. On 18 Apr. 1701, he m. her, had Zechary, b. 20 Jan. 1702; Susan, 18 Apr. 1703; Daniel, 19 Mar. 1704, d. at 17 yrs.; Andrew, 21 June 1705; Marian, 17 Aug. 1706; and Francis, 30 Nov. 1709. His w. d. after 1731, and he d. June 1748. His will, of 29 May in that yr. names the three surv. s. only, with childr. of d. Marian Boyer, dec. JONES, ABEL, Northampton, freem. 1690. * ABRAHAM, Hull, 1657, freem. 1673, was rep. 1689. In his will of 8 Jan. 1717, with a P. S. of 21 of the same, made when he was "full of days," he ment. w. Sarah and his seven s. Benjamin, Thomas, Abraham, Josiah, Joseph, John, and Ephraim. ABRAHAM, Hull, perhaps s. of the preced. freem. 1680. Ano. Abraham perhaps was freem. 1690. ALEXANDER, Portsmouth 1631, wh. m. a d. of Thomas Walford of the same, and had Alexander, was one of those sent by Mason, the patentee. BENJAMIN, Bristol, s. prob. of the first Robert, had w. Bathshua in 1688. BENJAMIN, Waterbury, among early sett. m. 2 May 1661, Hannah Spencer of Milford, had Benjamin, b. June 1662, wh. d. young; and Benjamin, again, minor at the d. of his f. 30 Dec. 1690. BENJAMIN, Malden 1681, perhaps is the man wh. m. at Hingham, Dec. 1686, Susanna Beal; but this name is repeat. in six or seven generat. at H. and no details can I obtain. BENJAMIN, Gloucester, s. of Thomas, m. 22 Jan. 1678, Elizabeth Wills, says Babson, wh. adds, they had four ch. there, but he does not name them, and only says, none of the fam. were there aft. 1686. BENJAMIN, New Haven, m. 20 Nov. 1687, Hannah Brown, is by some suppos. to be s. of dept.-gov. William; and their liberality extends to furnish. him a sec. w. and large fam. of ch. but I cannot accept the progeny, as it seems too recent. BENJAMIN, New Haven, s. of Benjamin of Waterbury, sold, in 1715, the ld. of his f. but contin. to reside there, and Bronson says, had Benjamin, Hannah, Ruth, Vinson, Martha, and Ebenezer betw. 1706 and 1722. BENONI, Northampton, s. of Griffith, m. 23 Jan. 1689, Esther, d. of John Ingersoll, wid. of William Garley, had Jonathan, b. 4 Jan. 1695, d. young; Benjamin, 1696; Ebenezer, 12 Nov. 1698; and Jonathan, again, 3 Mar. 1703. The last two with the f. were k. by the Ind. 13 May 1704, when the mo. was tak. away to Canada, and d. there next yr. CHARLES, wh. came 1635, aged 21, in the Abigail from London, may be thot. br. of Thomas, wh. came at the same time in that sh.; if so was prob. of Dorchester. CORNELIUS, Stamford 1670, call. sen. so that perhaps he had s. of the same name. DAVID, Dorchester, freem. 1665, m. 11 May 1659, Sarah, d. of Clement Topliff, had Jonathan, b. 9, bapt. 11 Mar. 1660, d. under 22 yrs.; Elizabeth 7, bapt. 14 Sept. 1662, d. under 20 yrs.; David, 20, bapt. 27 Nov. 1664; John, 8, bapt. 12 May 1667; Praise-ever, 18 Nov. 1671; and Jonathan, again, 29 May 1683. His w. d. 13 Oct. foll. aged 44; and he d. 27 Sept. 1694, aged 66. His will of 3 Aug. preced. that names only s. Praisever, and Jonathan with gr.s. David, may be read in Lib. XIII. Prob. he was that soldier of Turner's comp. wh. with a few others did not march all the way to the place of their hard serv. on Conn. riv. but was left at Quaboag, 4 Mar. 1676. DAVID, Dorchester, s. of the preced. was a cordwainer, freem. [[561]] 1690, m. 18 Mar. 1685, Ann Bullard, wh. d. 16 Mar. 1695, and had David, 18 July 1689; d. 18 June 1691. EBENEZER, Northampton 1678, prob. s. of Griffith. EBENEZER, Dorchester, s. of Isaac of the same, by w. Barbara had Rebecca, wh. d. 11 June 1693, aged 6 mos.; and he had also by w. Lydia a d.

Essex Inst. II. 198. ISAAC, Dorchester, s. of Thomas, prob. b. in Eng. freem. 1654, by first w. Hannah Heath, d. prob. of William, had beside one d. that liv. to be ment. in the will of Elizabeth Heath, 1 Jan. 1665, Hannah, b. 20 Nov. 1658, d. in 8 days, and the w. d. bef. or soon after.

His will, of 6 Dec. 1699, with codic. 23 Aug. foll. pro. 12 Mar. next, may be seen in our Lib. XIV. 310. It names no ch. but Ebenezer and Jonathan. ISAAC, Casco, had lds. on Presumscut riv. 1681. Willis thinks he came from Charlestown that yr. and was at Falmouth. ISAAC, Boston, by w. Mary had Mary b. Apr. 1687; and John, 24 Oct. 1691. ISAAC, New Haven, youngest s. of William of the same, m. 21 Nov. 1692, Deborah Clark of Stratford, had Samuel, b. 27 Sept. 1693; William, 20 Jan. 1695; Timothy, 30 Oct. 1696; Mary, 6 Oct. 1698; Deborah, 25 Sept. 1700; Isaac, 23 Dec. 1702; Hannah Feb. 1704, d. at 4 yrs.; Jacob, 20 Mar. 1707; James, 16 May 1709; and Ebenezer, 25 Feb. 1713, d. soon; was a clothier. His w. d. 28 May 1733, aged 63, and he d. 1741. From this branch, it is thot. most of the descend. of dept. gov. William are deriv. JACOB, New Haven, d. 1675. JAMES, freem. of Mass. 1644, may have belong. to Roxbury, or Charlestown, or Boston, or other town, after that date, were the surname was common; but among the mem. of ch. in the first three wh. would prove his right, the name of bapt. is not found. JEDEDIAH, Barnstable, s. of Ralph, m. 18 Mar. 1682, Hannah, perhaps d. of John Davis, had Shubael, b. 17 [[562]] July 1683; Simon, 5 Apr. 1685; Isaac, Apr. 1690; Timothy, May 1692; and Hannah, Sept. 1694.

By first w. had John, Elizabeth Sarah, Hannah, and Rebecca; and m. a sec. 27 Apr. 1699, Elizabeth wid. of Samuel Hall, said to be d. of Thomas Folland. Neither her f. nor first h. is kn. JOHN, Concord, came in the Defence from London 1635, arr. at Boston 3 Oct. as we learn from the autobiog. of Rev. Thomas Shepard, a fellow-passeng. tho. for good reason, neither is nam. in the list at the custom ho. was accomp. by w. Sarah, aged 34, and ch. Sarah, 15; John, 11; Ruth, 7; Theophilus, 3; Rebecca, 2; and Elizabeth 1/2; all set forth in this docum. Of course the common report, that he was s. of William of Abergavenny in Co. Monmouth, and ent. Jesus Coll. Oxf. 1624 at the age of 17 (into wh. I had been hurried to giv. credit by similar. of names 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 250), is exploded. A note on p. 51 of the very agreeab. Annals of the Am. Pulpit repeats the idle tradit. But the sagacious writer perhaps took his revenge by add. the truth, that he d. a. 1664, aged "upwards of seventy yrs." unless he had adopt. contradictory acco. and dared not indicate a preference. The want of courage must not be imput. to Dr. Sprague. Incuria fudit. Yet Dr. Allen, in his new Ed. of the Biog. Dict. foll. him without hesitat. or scrutiny. He was ord. 6 Apr. 1637, pastor to the ch. gather. in July preced. of wh. the more import. min. call. teacher, was Peter Bulkley; there had Eliphalet, b. 9 Jan. 1641, but in Sept. 1644 went with many of his parish to Fairfield.

He was freem. 1650, and d. 22 June 1673, and the amt. of his inv. tak. 17 July foll. was £371.

Prov. in Nevis, I suppose, as a preacher, tho. the coll. cat. does not print him in italic charact. He m. and prob. d. at Nevis, 1657, but his wid. Joan came with s. John to N. E. She m. an Osborn at New Haven, and by her will, 27 Dec. 1673, gave most of her est. £408 to her two s. John and David, and to John Austin and his w. Mercy. JOHN, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 8 Nov. 1665; William, 1668; and Jotham, 1672. JOHN, Newbury, mariner, s. of Thomas, made his will, bound on a voyage, 17 July 1676, pro. Nov. foll. giv. all his est. specify. ld. in Barbados, to his mo. Ann White, so that I presume his f. had d. some time bef. JOHN, Swanzey, bur. 24 June 1675, k. no doubt, by the Ind. on the first day of Philip's war. JOHN, Charlestown, whose name is by Frothingham, 183, misprint. John James, by w. Rebecca, d.

Rebecca, 29 Apr. 1688; and Sarah, 6 Apr. 1690. He may have been br. of Isaac of Casco; at least, one of this name had lds. also, in 1681, on Presumscut riv. His will, of 24 Sept. 1685, was pro. 10 Oct. 1690. JOHN, New Haven 1689, as Mr. Porter assures me, had Samuel, and John. He was prob. s. of John of Nevis. JOHN, Concord, s. of John of the same, freem. 1690, m. 5 May 1681, Sarah, d. of John Farwell. JOHN, New Haven, s. of William, H.

He had m. at Weymouth 11 Nov. 1657, Patience, d. of Thomas Little. One JOSEPH, was a soldier of Gallup's comp. in the sad expedit. of Phips 1690 to conquer Canada.

JOSIAH, Watertown, s. of Lewis of the same, m. 2 Oct. 1667, Lydia, d. of Nathaniel Treadway, had Lydia, b. 25 Aug. 1668; Josiah, 20 Oct. 1670; Mary, 10 Dec. 1672; Nathaniel, 31 Dec. 1674; Samuel, 9 July 1677; James, 4 Sept. 1679; Sarah, 6 Feb. 1681; Ann, 28 June 1684; John, 19 Mar. 1687; and Isaac, bapt. 25 May 1690; was selectman 1685, and after, freem. 1690, capt. deac. and d. 9 Oct. 1714. His wid. d. 18 Sept. 1743, aged 94. LEWIS, Roxbury, with w. Ann, wh. d. 1 May 1680, aged 72, or 78 by the inscript. on gr. stone, as Goodwin gives it, is found among memb. of the ch. a. 1640, had Phebe, b. 21 Jan. bapt. 1 Feb. 1646, d. 6 July 1650 by a scald, says ch. rec. but he had elder [[564]] ch. Lydia, perhaps b. in Eng. wh. m. 30 Oct. 1656, Jonathan Whitney, beside Josiah, b. 1643; and Shubael, 1 July, or 14 Oct. says Goodwin, 1651. This last was prob. infirm in mind. He was long at Watertown, and there d. 11 Apr. 1684, having to his will of 7 Jan. 1679, add. codic. of 11 Apr. 1682. LEWIS, Saybrook, had Margaret, b. 15 Aug. 1667; Catharine, 28 May 1671; Jonathan, 12 Nov. 1673; Samuel, 18 May 1676; and Ephraim, 1 May 1685. MATTHEW, Boston, by w.

I. 1680, s. of John of Bassaleg, near Newport, Co. Monmouth, bred at Jesus Coll. Oxford, left a place in Glamorgansh. for the Uniformity Act of 1662, and might therefore from other non-conformists expect. better treatm. than to be call. tanner from Wales, of whose decept. in evangelis. at Killingworth and Branford, indignant story is giv. in Magn. VII. 34. Riker's Hist. of Newtown, 99-115, overthrows all the credit of Mather's relat. with great modesty. Abundant imitat. have every yr. since travers. our country, but the name may not commonly be Jones. NATHANIEL, New Haven, s. of dept.-gov. William, by his first w. b. in Eng. m. 7 Oct. 1684, Abigail, d. of David Atwater, had Hannah, b. 6 May 1687; Theophilus, 18 Mar. 1690; and Abigail, posthum. 26 Mar. 1692; a propr. 1685, d. 21 Aug. 1691. Both he and his br. William by favor of their mo.-in-law, had, dur. life of the f. independ. est. out of the prop. of Gov. Eaton.

Matthew Fuller, had Shubael, b. 27 Aug. 1654; Jedediah, 4 Jan. 1656; John, 14 Aug. 1659; Mercy, 14 Nov. 1666; and Ralph, 1 Oct. 1669; beside five others, whose names are not found.

The wid. m. John Kingsley. RICHARD, Hingham 1636, has still descend. there, unless Lincoln, 44, has giv. this name by mistake for Robert.

He is, I presume, the man call. s.-in-law in will of John Bibble, 1653, whose d. Ann was his w. I presume he had other ch. as in his will of 20 Apr. 1688 to be read in Lib. VIII. 66, two other s. and two ds. beside gr.ch. heirs of his s. Robert, dec. are ment. Both s. are nam. Benjamin, and the wid. Elizabeth was mo. of the younger. The ds. were Sarah Belknap, and Jane Collyer, w. of Thomas. After very trifling legacies of shillings and pence, all est. ho. lds. orchards, &c. are. giv. to his w. Elizabeth and after her d. to the s. "Benjamin, the younger, that she bore mc." ROBERT, Swanzey, perhaps s. of the preced. had Benjamin, b. 8 May 1674; and the f. was k. by the Ind. 24 June of next yr. One Robert, tax. at Dover 1657 and 62, may not be easily found elsewhere.

His w. d. 14 Feb. 1696; and he had sec. w. Sarah, wh. d. 31 Dec. 1717, aged 60, says the gr.stone at Cambridge, where he also d. six days aft. her. STEPHEN, Dover, freem. 1672, m. 28 Jan. 1664, Elizabeth Field. In the , Ind. war, his ho. was a garris. defend. with success in 1694. TEAGUE, Yarmouth 1653, had Teague, Jeremiah, Josiah, and Samuel, perhaps, but dates are not seen. * THOMAS, Dorchester 1635, came that yr. aged 40; with w.

True it is, that he arr. at Boston from London (where he was b. 1624, as is said, and had been a lawyer), 27 July 1660, in the same sh. with the celebr. regicides, Whalley and Goffe, and brot. s. William and Nathaniel, b. to him by first w. But he had motive suffic. to come, without the vain fear of being point. at for a s. of that tool of Oliver, bec. in virtue of a marriage contr. of 4 July 1659, he, by the style of W. J. of the parish of St. Martins in the Field, Co. Middlesex, had m. Hannah Eaton of the parish of St. Andrew, Holborn, London, spinster, youngest d. of Gov. Theophilus Eaton, and was well inclin. to take care of her est. at New Haven, brot. a ch. Hannah, the offspring of that union, b. the same season of the embark. had here, Theophilus, b. 2 Oct. 1661, d. in 3 days; Sarah, 17 Aug. 1662; Elizabeth 28 Aug. but bapt. 23 Oct. 1664, by the name of Mary; Samuel, 20 June, bapt. 29 July 1666, d. at 6 mos.; John, 4 Oct. 1667, H. C. 1690; Deodat, 15 Mar. 1670, d. next mo.; Isaac, 21 June 1671; Abigail, and Rebecca, tw. 10 Nov. 1673, d. both in 5 days; and Susanna 18 Aug. 1675. Of Caleb, by Increase Mather, call. a son, we may well doubt, as he tells of his d. at sea, Oct. 1676. He was of good talents, a very active public serv. Assist. and dept.-gov. of the col. of N. Haven, and after Assist. 1678 of the Unit. Col. of Conn. d. 17 Oct. 1706, in 82d yr. His inv. was only £206, that of his wid. wh. d. 4 May foll. £989. Of [[568]] the ds. Hannah m. at ripe age, 2 Oct. 1689, Patrick Falconer of Guilford, afterwards a preacher in Newark, N. J. but, in 1707, she was w. of James Clark; Sarah m. 21 Oct. 1687, Andrew Morrison, merch. wh. d. 1702 or 3, insolv.; Elizabeth m. John Morgan; and Susanna m. Nathaniel Wilson of Hartford, wh. so ill-treat. her that she went home to New Haven, and d. 1705. My New Haven correspond. makes her as bad or worse than he. By the usual folly of tradit. he has been thot. to be descend. of Cromwell's sis. as well as s. of the regicide, yet he was b. many yrs. bef. that m. of the regicide, and he was very little younger than the proposed mo. if she were the wid. of Whetstone that m. Col. Jones the regicide, for she was bapt. 19 Jan. 1606, and Whetstone serv. all thro. the gr. civ. war, and d. aft. William, the suppos. s. of his successor was m. to his first, if not even to the sec. w. and no hesitat. can be felt in agree. with the conclus. of Noble in his memoirs of the Ho. of Cromwell, II. 276, "prob. Col. Jones had no issue by the wid. of Mr. Whetstone." However one part of the story is as good as the other, prob. tho. the relat. unimport. of the Col. has left us, I think, without knowl. of a former w. The little resp. shown to the story of his origin is justif. by the strange ignorance exhibit. in the details, with wh. I have been supplied,--as that the regicide, wh. was b. 1580, in the isle of Anglesea, and one of the mem. for a Welsh county, in the Long Parliam. of 1640, m. 1623, Henrietta, sec. sis. of O. Cromwell, wh. bec. the gr. Protector, when we kn. of the six sis. the sec. was Catharine, two yrs. older than Oliver, and none was nam. Henrietta; and as we see that he did indeed marry a younger sis. of the gr. man, we may be content without giv. him any other than the wid. Whetstone. Ano. blunder of this paper is, in call. Eaton, the f. of William's w. "famous first gov. of New Haven Col. and of Conn. after the union;" thus confus. the f. of the w. with her h. a stupid arrangem. even for a tradit. of stupidity. WILLIAM, New Haven, s. of the preced. rem. to Guilford, by w. Abigail Morse, prob. d. of John, not Isaac (as the fam. geneal. has it) of Boston, had only ch. kn. to us, Caleb, b. 1688, wh. had sev. ch. and perpet. the name; and he d. 23 May 1700. So common is this name in Eng. that I was for some time led to believe, that our Rev. John of Concord and Fairfield was the student of Jesus Coll. Oxf. s. of William of Co. Monmouth. Once the Welsh alone enjoy. it, but it has gone upon all the winds; and it is exceed. difficult to appropr. third and later generat. Thirteen of this name, says Farmer MS. had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and forty at the other N. E. and N. J. coll. Margaret Jones, the woman execut. as a witch 15 June 1648, was the sec. example of such infatua. in N. E. the first being at Windsor a yr. bef. Her h. narrow. escap. for the evid. against him was appar. to many, as Winthrop II. 327, tells. JORDAN, JOURDAINE, or JOURDAN, DOMINICUS, Scarborough, third [[569]] s. of Robert, m. Hannah, d. of Ralph Tristram of Saco, had Dominicus, and other childr. was k. by the Ind. 1703, when his w. and childr. were carr. off to Canada, whence, after thirteen yrs. Dominicus escap. This s. was a maj. and d. 1749, aged 66; and his s. Dominicus d. 1788, aged 72. Dominicus, eldest s. of this last, b. 19 Apr. 1740, was liv. when Willis wrote in 1831, the oldest man in the town, enjoy. part of the ancestr. domain. FRANCIS, Ipswich 1634, m. 6 Nov. 1635, Jane Wilson, had Sarah, b. 8 Nov. 1636; Hannah, 14 Mar. 1638; Mary, 7 Apr. 1639, d. in 4 mos.; Mary, again, 16 May 1641; Lydia, 14 Feb. 1643; and Deborah, 4 Dec. 1645; made his will 23 Apr. 1678, in wh. he names w.

JOHN, Guilford 1639, sign. the coven. of 1 June of that yr. by his name, Jurden, was there in 1668, perhaps d. next yr. JOHN, Plymouth 1643, wh. may have been f. of that Jehosabeth that m. 14 Dec. 1665, John Robbins of Bridgewater; at least there had Baruch, b. 24 Feb. 1651; may have rem. to Portsmouth. JOHN, Portsmouth, eldest s. of Robert, m. 1677, or 8, Elizabeth d. of Elias Stileman. ROBERT, Casco, came as a preacher, bef. 1641, prob. hav. deacon's or priest's orders from Episc. author. as all the other min. of the time had here, but desirous, as they were not, of adher. to the ch. of Eng. m.

His est. was on the Spurwink, now Scarborough. On the Ind. hostil. 1675, he withdrew to Portsmouth, and there, in 68th yr. d. 1679, his will, of 28 Jan. being pro. 1 July of that yr. His w. and ch.

JOSSELYN, JOCELYN, JOSTLIN, or JOSLIN, ABRAHAM, Scarborough, of the gr. jury 1658, was, perhaps, br. of Henry, Esquire, and John, the traveller; but whether he went home, or d. here, is unkn. ABRAHAM, Hingham, prob. eldest of Thomas of the same, b. in Eng. perhaps was left by his f. at sch. and direct. to foll. in few yrs.; by w. Beatrice, had there bapt. Abraham, 8 Apr. 1649; Philip, 15 Dec. 1650, wh. d. at Boston, 2 Aug. 1652; Henry; Rebecca; of unkn. dates; prob. both aft. rem. to Lancaster; yet Nathaniel was b. 4 July 1660, it seems, at Boston; however at L. were b. Joseph, 26 July 1663; Mary, 14 Dec. 1666, beside Thomas, wh. may, perhaps, have been older than either of the two; d. early in June 1670, as may be conclud. from his inv. being tak. on 13 of that mo. His wid. m. 16 Nov. 1671, Benjamin Bosworth of Hull, was 88, when she d. at Boston, Jan. 1712, pass. her last days with d. Rebecca. Rebecca m. John Croakham of Boston, and next, 1679, Thomas Harris; and, 8 Oct. 1700, Edward Stevens, had ch. only by the sec. h. and d. Mar. 1713. ABRAHAM, Lancaster, s. of the preced. m. 29 Nov. 1672, Ann, of whose fam. name we are ign. had Beatrice, b. 9 May 1674, and would soon have had ano. ch. when the Ind. in Feb. 1676 k. all the fam. either in the assault on 10th or in their capt. in the wilderness. His br. Joseph was rescu. by some friend. Ind. * HENRY, Scarborough, s. of Sir Thomas of Co. Kent, came, perhaps as early as 1631, certain. was here in 1634, but this was in employm. of Mason, patentee of N. H. after whose d. he engag. under Sir F. Gorges, and most faithful was his serv. from 1636, usual. oppos. the claims of Mass. hold. courts in 1647 and 8, under his commiss. from Eng. but at last acquiesc. in her suprem. bec. freem. 1658, when most of his neighb. also took the o. He m. Margaret, wid. of capt. Thomas Cammock, soon after his d. in 1643, had Henry; was for a long time the sec. person in auth. in Maine, and, not a short season, the first; in 1665 of course he enjoy. the favor of the royal commisnrs. but again bec. loyal to the usurp. governm. of Mass. In Oct. 1676 he was subdu. by the Ind. and prob. went to the Westward, but no more is kn. See Williamson. Sullivan, 369, suppos. that he went to Plymouth and Willis, 128, foll. that mistake. [[571]] The indefat. histor. of Portland discov. that he was at Pemaquid in 1682, and d. early next yr. See his fine artic. in Geneal. Reg. XI. 31. HENRY, Scituate, blacksmith, was not (as Willis thot.) s. of the preced. but of Abraham, m. 4 Nov. 1676;, Abigail, d. of Charles Stockbridge, had Abigail, b.

In Barry's copious Hist. of H. much will be seen of descend. to the present generat. HENRY, Gloucester; perhaps s. of the first Henry, m. 4 June 1678, Bridget Day, prob. d. of Anthony, had Henry, b. 28 June 1679; and Susanna, 25 Jan. 1682, d. in three days.

JOHN, Scarborough, the well kn. auth. br. of the first Henry, came in the Nicholas charter. by Edward Tyng arr. from London at Boston 2 July 1638; made a short excurs. to Scarborough to see his br. went home, in the Fellowship from Boston 15 Oct. and reach. Bideford, as he tells us, 24 Nov. 1639. His next visit brot. him to Boston, 28 July 1663, whence, after spend. a few wks. he went to his br. at S. and remain. eight yrs. he went home and publish in 1672, his book "New Eng. Rarities," more curious than trustworthy. JOSEPH, Bridgewater, s. of the sec. Abraham, was at Lancaster, when, in Feb. 1676, the Ind. destroy. his br. Abraham's fam. and was carr. away into captiv. but happily recov. by some friend. Ind. wh. took him, 30 May foll. to Norwich, as is told in Trumbull, Col. Rec. II. 430.

His w. d. 27 Aug. 1725, and he d. 5 Mar. 1727. PETER, Lancaster, br. of the preced. had w. and three ch. all k. by the Ind. 18 July 1692, when they took away ano. ch. beside Elizabeth Howe, the [[572]] sis. of his w. and other prison. but k. the ch. in the woods. He had sec. w. Hannah, and outliv. a fourth w. was a capt. and d. at gr. age in Leominster, at the ho. of his s. John, 8 Apr. 1759. The Hon.

JOHN, Boston 1639, adm. 11 Aug. of that yr. into the ch. so that he had come, prob. the former yr. if not earlier, and there is no slight reason to think he came with Mather in the James from Bristol, 1630; by w.

Moses, Y. C. 1752, was f. of the Hon. James, LL. D. the disting. jurist, late Chancellor of N. Y. JOSEPH, Dedham, br. of John, as I guess from the equal bequests in the will of Elizabeth Hardier. See Geneal. Reg. XIII. 12. JOSEPH, Charlestown, s. of John, d. 30 May 1753, in 79th yr. as the gr.stone asserts, when he was prob. under 78. JOSHUA, Dedham 1643, prob. br. of first John, adm. of the ch. Nov. 1644, went home, and came again, 1645, bring. two brs. it is said, but, perhaps, only one; freem. 1646; by w. Mary had Lydia, b. 17, bapt. 28 Feb. 1647; went, with w. again to Eng. that yr. his reasons not well satisfy. his friends in the ch. but came, again, in Oct. 1648, prob. dishearten. by the convuls. of his nat. ld.; that yr. had Sarah, b. 27 Mar. bapt. 7 Apr. 1650; and Mary, bapt. 14 Dec. 1651. JOSEPH, New Hampsh. 1689. OLIVER, Dover 1648, d. a. 1670, leav. wid. Dorothy. RICHARD, Ipswich 1634, came that yr. with ano. of the same chr. and surname, perhaps a cous. in the Mary and John, freem. 4 Mar. 1635, rem. with first sett. to Newbury 1635, left in Eng. Sarah, and other ds. of wh. one, Rebecca, had m. in Eng. Samuel Scallard, and aft. his d. she came, and, perhaps, brot. d. Mary, wh. m. 4 Dec. 1666, John Rolfe; and the mo. m.

Jane, wh. d. 26 June 1674, and he m. 6 Jan. 1675, Joanna, wid. of Nicholas Davison of Charlestown, and d. 25 Nov. 1689, without ch. but gave his est. to his neph. John. SAMUEL, Gloucester, perhaps s. of Thomas of the same, b. prob. in Eng. by w.

Esther Phelps, had Martha, 1703; Daniel, and Mary, tw. 1704; beside two, Benjamin, and Priscilla, of whose date we hear not. He d. 1740, in his will of 1737 names the five surv. s. and three ds. STEPHEN, Newbury, br. of the first Richard, came, says Coffin, 1635; but if so, he went home, and came again 1638, in the Confidence from Southampton, with w. Margery, and four or five serv. In his case is observa. how readily the officers of the custom-ho. acquiesc. in false statem. to avoid the arbitra. orders of the Lords of Traae and Planta. for his age is mark. 17, that of his w. 16, and George March, serv. 16; beside Hugh March, 20; Anthony Sadler, 9; Nicholas Wallington, a poor boy, without any yrs.; and Rebecca Kent, 16, call. serv. perhaps to increase the delus. He was older, prob. for he was sw. a freem. 22 May 1639; had Elizabeth b. 1 Mar. 1642, d. at 11 yrs.; Hannah, 20 Mar. 1644; Stephen, 6 Mar. 1648; Rebecca, 3 Aug. 1650; David, 26 May 1657; and Mary. He had three ws. Ann, the sec. d. 3 May 1660; and he m. 9 May 1662, Eleanor, wid. of William Scadlock of Saco; and rem. to Haverhill, thence to Woodbridge, N. J. Hannah m. 19 Sept. 1669, Isaac Toppan, and d. 10 Dec. 1688; Rebecca m. 12 Aug. 1667, John Farnham the first of Andover. THOMAS, Gloucester 1643, d. 1 Apr. 1658; and his wid. d. 6 or 16 Oct. 1671. THOMAS, Gloucester, perhaps s. of the preced. m. 28 Mar. 1659, Joan, d. of Thomas Penny, had Thomas, b. 31 Mar. 1660; Mary, 22 Jan. 1662; Mercy, and Joan, tw. 24 Feb. 1665, d. both in 6 days; Joan, again, 5 Aug. 1666; and John, 2 Jan. 1677; was of Brookfield 1671, freem. 1690. WILLIAM, Boston 1662, m. Mary, wid. of John Mears; of ar. co. 1667, its ensign 1673, d. 9 July 1691. Seven of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and nine at other N. E. coll. KERLEY, CARSLEY, or CARLSLY, EDMUND, of Ashmore, Co. Dorset, near Shaftsbury, husbandman, emb. in the Confidence, 24 Apr. 1638 aged 22, at Southampton; but we kn. no more of him. HENRY, Lancaster, s. of William, b. a. 1632, brot. prob. by his f. to Hingham, m. 2 Nov. 1654, Elizabeth d. of John White, had Henry, b. 1658; William, 1659; Joseph, 1669; and prob. other ch. freem. 1668; but in 1676, aft. his w. (a sis. of famous Mary Rowlandson, the w. of the min.) with the two last nam. ch. were k. by the Ind. 10 Feb. at the assault (in wh. [[14]] Mrs. R. as she has relat. was tak.) he m. 18 Apr. 1676, Elizabeth how at Charlestown, went to Marlborough, and there spent the rest of his days, was a capt. and his depon. against Andros, 27 Dec. 1689, with Thomas How, is giv. in Revo. in N. E. Justif. 35. See Willard's Hist. of Lancaster, 27, 8, and 38. WILLIAM, Hingham 1637, of Sudbury a. 1641, rem. to Lancaster, freem. 1647; in his old age m. sec. w. 16 May 1664, Rebecca, wid. of Thomas Josselyn, and d. 14 July 1670, leav. William, and Henry, bef. ment. His will of 26 July 1669 adds nothing to our acquaint. with his fam. WILLIAM, Sudbury, eldest s. prob. of the preced. by wh. he was, perhaps, left in Eng. came in the Confidence from Southampton 1638, call. of Ashmore, with Edmund, bef. ment. wh. may have been uncle or br. rem. to Marlborough, freem. 1666; by w. Jane had Mary, b. at S. 4 May 1667; Sarah, 23 Jan. 1669; and Hannah, 8 Jan. 1671; was an ens. d. at Marlborough, 4 Jan. 1684. I suppose the name is mispr. Kerby in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 241. KESKEYS, HENRY, Boston, by w. Ruth had Henry, b. 3 May 1656. KETCHAM, EDWARD, Ipswich 1635, freem. 9 Mar. 1637, may reasona. be thot. progenit. of all of the name, in our country and therefore I regret the more that we are ign. of the circumstances of his migrat. and subseq. resid. By conject. it seems to me, that EDWARD of Stratford, wh. d. bef. 1678, was his s. whose d. Rebecca m. 14 Feb. 1678, Thomas Taylor of Norwalk. An Edward E. m. Mary, d. of Richard Harcutt, but prob. he was of L. I. yet may have been the Stratford man, wh. in his will of June 1655 names three ds. Mary, Hannah, and Esther. HENRY, Ipswich 1638, perhaps s. of the preced. JOHN, Ipswich 1648, prob. s. of Edward, rem. to that pt. of L. I. call. Setauket, now Brookhaven, constable, stood up for the jurisdict. of Conn. was honor. 1662, with a commiss. to make his neighb. swear, and rep. 1664. In 1668 he rem. to Newtown, there was a man of influence to his d. 1697. Riker, 89. JOSEPH, Norwalk 1672, possib. s. of the preced. or gr.s. of Edward, m. 3 Apr. 1679, Mercy, d. of deac. Henry Lindall of New Haven, had Nathaniel, b. 23 Jan. 1680; and Sarah, 19 Feb. 1672; was in town serv. 1701. SAMUEL, Newtown, L. I. 1655, prob. br. of John, was of Setauket, freem. of Conn. 1664, and with Edward, wh. may, also, have been br. at Huntington, 1672. KETTLE, JAMES, Salem, s. of the first John, by w. Elizabeth had John, and Nathaniel, tw. b. 9 Dec. 1689, of wh. John, prob. d. soon; James, 27 Dec. 1691; Elizabeth 19 Jan. 1694; and John, again, 3 July 1696; JOHN, Gloucester, was in 1641, then a minor, charg. for breach of Sabbath & c.; by w. Elizabeth d. of the first William Allen of Salem, had John, b. 1654; William, 1656; Elizabeth b. 15 Feb. 1658; Mary, 5 Mar. 1660; Samuel, 2 Apr. 1662; and James, 20 Mar. 1665. He rem. and d. at Salem 12 Oct. 1685. Prob. from him is deriv. the name Kettle Cove at the adjoin. town of Manchester. JOHN, Charlestown, eldest s. of Richard of the same, was, perhaps, of Portsmouth 1663. He m. first, Sarah, d. of Edmund Goodenow, had John (wh. m. 11 Sept. 1688, Abigail, d. of Richard Austin, and d. at C. 17 Mar. 1691, [[15]] aged 30); Sarah, b. in Sudbury, 8 Mar. 1663; and Joseph. He had a sec. w. Mr. Wyman says, Elizabeth d. of Samuel Ward the sec. wh. was carr. away from Lancaster in 1676, says Frothingham, 82; and by her had only Jonathan, b. at L. 24 Nov. 1670. JONATHAN, Charlestown 1677, youngest br. of the preced. m. 30 Mar. 1676, Abigail, d. of James Convers, wh. d. 25 Jan. 1691, aged 33, had Jonathan, b. 1677, wh. d. soon, and he d. 18 Dec. 1720. His other ch. Ann, b. 1679; Jonathan. 1681; and Abigail, 1684, were bapt. 29 Mar. 1685, when he join. to the ch.; and he had aft. James, 1686; and David, 1689, d. the same yr. JOSEPH, Charlestown, elder br. of the preced. freem. 1670, m. 5 July 1665, Hannah, d. of William Frothingham, had Hannah, wh. d. 26 June 1666; Hannah, again, d. 5 Sept. 1669; Richard, bapt. 1 May 1670; Esther, 29 Jan. 1671, d. 25 May 1678; Hannah, 27 Oct. 1672, d. young; Joseph, 31 Jan. 1675; Elizabeth 18 Mar. 1677, Esther, again, 13 Feb. 1679; William, 6 Feb. 1681; Mary, 25 Mar. 1683; Benjamin, 7 Sept. 1684; Rebecca, 7 Jan. 1687; and Hannah, again, 7 July 1689. His s. Richard d. 7 Dec. 1690; and his w. d. 15 Sept. 1693; he was chos. deac. 1695; m. for sec. w. Dorothy, wid. of Thomas Hett, wh. d. 11 Dec. 1710, in her 60th yr. and he d. 5 Apr. 1711. NATHANIEL, Charlestown, br. of the preced. by first w. Hannah, m. 13 June 1669, wh. d. 19 Nov. 1670, had only Nathaniel; m. 30 Oct. 1672, Hannah, d. of James Eidder, both unit. with the ch. 22 Mar. 1686, and on 29 of same had bapt. Nathaniel, James, Samuel, Hannah, and Sarah; Rebecca, 30 Jan. 1687; Rachel, b. 10,bapt. 14 Apr. 1689; Union, 15 Mar. 1691; and Richard, 10 Dec. 1693. He had three others, wh. d. bef. bapt. was one of the constables, 1690, and d. 1723. PETER, came in the Abigail, 1635, aged 10, from London; but who can tell, whether he grew to manhood, where he liv. wh. he m. or when he d. ? RICHARD, Charlestown 1633, butcher, freem. 4 Mar. 1635, by w. Esther, d. of Samuel Ward, had Hannah, bapt. 29 Oct. 1637, m. 21 Jan. 1657, John Call; John, b. 6, bapt.8 Dec. 1639; Joseph, 15, bapt. 21 Feb. 1641; Samuel, 19 Nov. 1642; Nathaniel, 11 Oct. 1644; Jonathan, 1646. Perhaps we may doubt the ch. rec. of Budington, 247, of the date, 25 July 1633, giv. the. adm. of "Richard Kettle and Esther his w." as a modern interpolat. in its latter clause, bec. the Boston ch. rec. of 26 Jan. 1634 has this entry, "Esther Ward, our br. Atherton Hough's maid serv." for evid. of her adm. and the dism. on 17 July 1642 reads, "Our sis. Esther Ward, now w. to Richard Kettle of Charlestown hath letter of recommenda. gr. unto her to the ch. at C." Possib. he had two ws. nam. Esther, hut it is less prob. than that the Charlestown ch. rec. was enrich. with a postlimin. addit. It must always be rememb. that we have not orig. ch. rec. of early yrs. in either Boston or Charlestown ch. but only copies, made prob. betw. 1650 and 1670, of both. He was usually [[16]] call. serg. and d. 28 June 1681, aged 71. Esther, his w. d. 2 or 5 July 1679. ROBERT, Gloucester 1653, perhaps br. of John, wh. was three yrs. older. SAMUEL, Charlestown, s. of Richard, m. 11 July 1665, Mercy Hayden, d. of James, wh. d. 19 Oct. 1692, aged 45; and he m. 3 May 1694, Mary, wid. of Nathaniel Frothingham, d. of Thomas Hett; and by the first had Mary, bapt. 1 May 1670, tho. b. 8 Oct. 1666; and Mercy, 18 May 1679; freem. 1670, was one of the tythingmen 1680, d. 20 Dec. 1694. His wid. d. 5 June 1710, aged 62 yrs. KEY, JOHN, Dover, had James, tak. a. 1690 by the Ind. and soon k. Magn. VII. 69. But he and ano. John, call. jr. perhaps his s. were prison. from Piscataqua, at Quebec, 1695. KEYES, ELIAS, Sudbury, s. of Robert, m. 11 Sept. 1665, Sarah, d. of John Blandford, had Elias, b. 15 Nov. 1666; James, 13 Sept. 1670; Sarah, 11 Apr. 1673; and Thomas, 8 Feb. 1675; perhaps, also, John. PETER, Sudbury, perhaps s. of Robert, by w. Elizabeth had, prob. John, b. 1664, wh. was one of the fanned. of the ch. at Shrewsbury; and, perhaps. others, bef. or aft. Esther, 12 Feb. 1668. ROBERT, Watertown 1633, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 26 May 1633; Rebecca, 17 Mar. 1638; Mary, 17 June 1639, d. soon; Mary, again, Feb. 1642, d. soon; Elias, 20 May 1643, bef. ment. rem. to Newbury, there had Mary, again, 16 June 1645, may have ret. to Watertown, perhaps had Peter, and others; and he d. 16 July 1647. His wid. m. Nov. 1658, John Gage; Mary m. 16 Feb. 1664, Benjamin Cady of Andover. SOLOMON, Newbury, m. 2 Oct. 1653, Frances Grant, had Hannah, b. 12 Sept. 1654; Sarah, 24 Aug. 1656; Mary, 26 Sept. 1658; Jane, 20 Oct. 1650; and Judith, 16 Sept. 1662; rem. to Chelmsford, there he had Solomon, bapt. 25 June 1665; and was tythingman 1679. His d. Jane m. 17 May 1680, Samuel Cleveland. His gr.s. Solomon was disting. by personal courage, as is seen at Lovewell's fight, in Hoyt's Antiq. Researches, 218, 274; and he was k. 8 Sept. 1755, when the Fr. and Ind. under Baron Dieskau were defeat. Five of this name had, in 1826, been gr. at Dart. Sometimes it was writ. as sound. Kies. KEYSAN, or KEZAN, JOHN, Haverhill, m. Hannah, a. of John Davis of Dover, but date, or other partic. is unkn. KEYSER, KEAZER, or KEASUR, ELIZUR, Lynn, s. of George, m. 9 Dec. 1679, Mary Collins, had Sarah, b. 6 Dec. 1686. GEORGE, Lynn, a tanner, freem. 14 Mar. 1639, rem. to Salem, m. Elizabeth d. of Edward Holyoke, had Elizur; George, b. May 1657; and Edward, 20 June 1659. His w. d. 24 June 1659, and the last ch. foll. in Nov. aft.; and he d. 1676, or by ano. acco.

THOMAS, Lynn 1638, perhaps br. of George, by w. Mary, had Rebecca, b. Nov. 1640; and Thomas, both bapt. 15 June [[17]] 1645, in her own right, when the girl is call. a. 4 yrs. and 7 mos. and the boy 2 yrs. and 5 wks.; Timothy, bapt. 15 Feb. 1646, a. 5 days old, at Boston, where he was merch. and shipmaster, act. that yr. in both capacit. on the detesta. voyage to Africa for steal. nat. See Winthrop II. 243, 379. KIRBY, KIRBE, or KIRBEE, ARTHUR, Salem, fisherman, or mariner, by w. Abigail, d. of William Ager of the same, had Abigail, b. 4 Jan. 1659; Arthur, 6 Jan. 1661; William, wh. d. 14 Sept. 1661; and, perhaps, tw. Mary; tho. she is not on town rec. yet the rec. of ch. has "Mary, William, Abigail, wh. d. 3 Oct. 1662, and Arthur, childr. of Abigail Kippins, bapt. 13 Apr. 1662;" but, perhaps, the name of this last ch. may be on the town rec. Elizabeth Other ch. were Elizabeth 12 May 1662, Joseph, also on both rec. the town for b. mark. 23 Feb. but not the yr. and the ch. for bapt. giv. 23 May 1666; and the same has Hannah, 23 Aug. 1668, while that of the town has among b. Hannah, 28 June 1669; Sarah, 31 May 1670; and Jerusha, 19 Apr. 1672. Errors are easi. found in rec. of the elder days; but it is not necessary in this case to charge wrong on either town or ch. He prob. d. early in 1685, for his inv. is of 29 June.

See Scott. It is said, that two of his s. Thomas and William, were k. by the Ind. in 1675; but I suppose Caleb was one. A William K. of capt. Oliver's comp. was wound. 19 Dec. 1675, in the gr. battle of Narraganset, but he was of Boston, and serv. as substitute for his master, John Clear. An Elizabeth K. aged 13, was passeng. in the same sh. with Henry and Richard; but on the custom-ho. list is not insert. as ch. of either, but under the care of Thomas Reyner.

Goodwin was quite bewilder. ELEAZER, Glastonbury, s. of Thomas, said to be the first male b. in New Haven, was in 1661 sch.master at Wethersfield, and contin. in that employm. at intervals till 1689; was freem. 1667, and in 1696 succeed.

Great var. in spell. of this name occurs both at D. and New Haven; Kinnersly, Kimerly, Kemmerly, and even with C. for first let. are found. At New Haven the fam. is perpet. with repute, and four had been gr. at Yale in 1829. KIME, WILLIAM, Dover 1668-71. KIMWRIGHT, GEORGE, Dorchester, m. a. 1653, the wealthy wid. of John Holland, rem. to Cambridge, a. 1664; but I doubt the spell. of the surname.

A later report, in the same vol. 229, makes the d. of w. occur. thirty yrs. aft. DANIEL, Lynn 1647, a merch. b. a. 1601, a. 28 May 1672. His will of 7 Feb. preced. pro. 26 June foll. names w. and ch.

His w. was Elizabeth JOHN, Northampton, is by Hinman said to have come at the age of 16 in 1645, liv. at Hartford, and 5 yrs. aft. m.

John Coolidge and Hugh Mason, 23 Apr. foll. Possib. he was that youth of 15, wh. came from Ipswich at the same time, in 1634, with the other Thomas a few yrs. older, but in a differ. ship, the Elizabeth. THOMAS, Watertown 1640, prob. in the Frances from Ipswich, 1634, aged 19, came with so many, wh. sat down at that place, but first was, prob. at Hampton; by w. Mary had Thomas, b. 6 Mar. 1641; Mary, 2 Feb. 1643; and d. 7 Dec. 1644 His wid. m. 9 Mar. 1645, James Cutler. THOMAS, perhaps s. of the preced. in 1676 was of Marlborough. THOMAS, Scituate, came in the Blessing, from London, 1635, aged 21, in comp. with William Vassall, unit. with the ch. 25 Feb. 1638, but did not rem. next yr. with the pastor and his many friends; by w.

WILLIAM, Salem, came from London in the Abigail, 1635, aged 28, freem. 25 May 1636, wh. is inconsist. in trifling degree with Felt, wh. says he had gr. of ld. 1637, and was freem. aft. it; had there bapt. Mehitable, on 25 Dec. 1636; John, 1 Nov. 1638; and Deliverance, 31 Oct. 1641. In his case, we find not the w. in the valua. list of ch. mem. as was commonly the much more natural occurr. but he seems to have been the superior polemic, if not devotee; as, in the antinom. perversity of 1637, he was one of the five men in S. requir. to be disarm. for the public safety; and in the more violent ragings of spiritual insubordin. 1659, his Christian kindness to the Quakers expos. him to whip. and banishm. From the latter he was restor. on repent. 1661. WILLIAM, Isle of Shoals, d. 28 May 1664, leav. William. WILLIAM, Boston, wh. by w. Sarah, d. of George Griggs, had William, b. 6 Nov. 1655, is, perhaps, f. of that man, honor. by Dunton in 1686, wh. d. 1690. The wid. of William m. bef. July 1662, Roger Burgiss, and d. 1664.

Much do I regret, that of those five s. our informat. is confin. to JOHN, Billerica, s. of the preced. m. 3 Aug. 1685, Hannah, perhaps d. by sec. w. of William French, had six s. and five ds. and d. 27 Apr. 1714.

Whether he had ch. I am not advis. but he was liv. certain. at S. up to 1701, perhaps later. NICHOLAS, Watertown, may have come in the fleet with Winthrop and Saltonstall 1630, by w.

In that century a singlep was used. WILLIAM, Watertown 1636, d. 30 Aug. 1658, "aged a. 80 yrs." Perhaps he came as early as Nicholas; and had, in his will of 1655, not nam. any w. but refer. to ch. of wh. sev. were brot. by him from Eng. and to gr.ch.

KNIGHT, or KNIGHTS, ALEXANDER, Ipswich 1635, had kept an inn at Chelmsford, Eng. says Vincent in his Hist. of the Pequot war. Perhaps we may be justif. in think. he came in the Defence, but could not obtain license to emb. being a subsidy man; we kn. at least, that in that sh. that yr. came from London, Sarah K. aged 50; and Dorothy, 30, of wh. one might be w. and the other sis. or d. APSIA, Charlestown 1637, if the force of Frothingham, 57 and 88, can render such a name credible. Without sight of the MS. I should indulge the license of modest conject. to make it Apphia.

EZEKIEL, Salem, if the gr. of ld. 1637, wh. Felt ment. drew him thither, but most of his days was of Braintree, by w. Elizabeth wh. was bur. 28 Apr. 1642, had Ezekiel, b. 1 Feb. 1641, d. at 7 mos.

His will of 18 Apr. in that yr. pro. 16 Sept. foll. made Mr. Shubael Dummer, capt.

Elizabeth wh. d. 20 Mar. 1645, and by her, or a former w. had John, b. 1622. His next w. was Ann, wid. of Richard Ingersoll of Salem, and he d. May 1670. JOHN, Watertown 1636, a maulster, not in my opin. the freem of 1636, as Bond thot. was among orig. proprs. of Sudbury 1642, prob. the freem. of 10 May 1643, was of Woburn 1653, first signer of a petit. for ch. liberty. JOHN, Beverly, a mason, s. of William, brot. from Eng. by his f. bef. 1637, went home, it is said, to take part in the gr. civ. war on the side of Parliam. m. in Eng. but soon aft. came hither, had eldest s. John, beside William, Joseph, Emma, and Martha, went again to Eng. a. 1672, to obt. est. left by his f. and there d. All this was sw. by two witness. at Beverly in June 1743, ea. of the age of 85 yrs. wh. kn. him, and his eldest s. John, and the eldest s. of that John, then liv. at Manchester. It must not, then, be suppos. that he was the same as the foll. as plausib. might be suggest. JOHN, Newbury, s. of John of the; same, b. in Eng. m. 1647, Bathshua, d. of Richard Ingersoll of Salem, had John, b. 16 Aug. 1648; Joseph, 21 June 1662; Elizabeth 18 Oct. 1655; Mary, 8 Sept. 1657; Sarah, 13 Apr. 1660; Hannah, 22 Mar. 1662, d. young; Hannah, again, 30 Aug. 1664; Richard, 26 July 1666; Benjamin, 21 Aug. 1668; and Isaac, 31 Aug. 1672, wh. d. at 18 yrs.; was freem. 1671, and d. 25 Feb. 1678, in 56th yr. and his wid. d. 25 Oct. 1705.

JOHN, Charlestown 1653, s. of John, a cooper, was prob. b. in Eng. m. 25 Apr. 1654, Ruhamah Johnson, had Ruhamah, b. 29 Jan. 1655, d. at two wks.; Elizabeth 3 June 1656; John, 4 Nov. 1657; Ruhamah, again, 16 Feb. 1659; and Abigail, bapt. 25 Nov. 1660; but I kn. not, whether he had others of sec. or third w. tho. it seems prob. In the ch. rec. of adm. 1667, Abigail K. is call. d. of sis. Stower's, and that may indicate, but not exclusive. a maiden; for "goodman John K." comes in few mos. aft.; and on 23 Sept. 1677 is found" Mary K. the w. of our br. John K. He m. 19 Dec. 1678, wid. Mary Clements, as fourth w. and she d. 12 [[37]] July 1682, and, again, "9 Jan. 1680, Mary K. w. of our br. John K." and finally, "9 Mar. 1684, Sarah K. w. of our br. John K. by dism. from Boston first ch." as Budington's valua. list, pp. 248, 9 and 50 show. So that we might take the last two, or even three to belong to John the younger and leave eno. But five ws. this man had. From the will of ano. John of Charlestown, no doubt his f. made 14 Feb. 1673, of wh. we see not the day of pro. but find the inv. of 1 June 1674, we find no other relat. nam. but Elizabeth and Abigail, ds. of his s. John, s.-in-law Robert Peirce of Woburn, and the w. his own d. Mary, and makes overseer, his friend and br. (but this means only, I judge, the ch. relationsh.) John Chickering wh. was the physician. For his third w. this John of C. took, 22 June 1668, Mary Bridge, wh. d. Oct. 1678. In spite of his five ws. he liv. to ripe age, for in 1679 he was call. 46 yrs. old, and his fourth w. 52; and his will, made 28 Nov. 1701, was pro. 13 Dec. 1714. JOHN, Lynn, had Martha, b. 11 Aug. 1657. JOHN, Northampton, freem. 1676. JOHN, Charlestown, not s. of John of the same. by w. Persis had Persis, bapt. 2 May 1669, d. young; Mary, 31 July 1670; Persis, again, 17 Mar. 1672; John, 23 Nov. 1673; Samuel, 12 Sept. 1675; perhaps sev. more, and some of these may belong to the other John of C. for, Mr. Wyman assures me, no John of C. had w. Persis. JOHN, Newbury, eldest br. of Benjamin, m. 1 Jan. 1672, Rebecca, d. of Rev. James Noyes, had James, b. 3 Sept. 1672; Rebecca, 27 Apr. 1674; John, 3 Apr. 1676; Sarah, 25 Feb. 1679; Elizabeth 13 Apr. 1681; Joseph, 9 Oct. 1683; and Nathaniel, 22 Dec. 1688.

JOHN, Dover, perhaps s. of Richard of the same, m. Leah, wid. of Benedictus Tarr, it is said, but no more is kn. of him, exc. that his inv. was brot. in 17 June 1700. JONATHAN, Salem 1670, m. prob. at Woburn 31 Mar. 1663, Ruth Wright, and had Jonathan; Ebenezer; Enos; Ruth; and Deborah; and he d. 17 Jan. 1683. He was prob. s. of the first Philip. A John, with w.

JOSEPH, Woburn, freem. 1676, perhaps s. of first Joseph, wh. rn. 4 Apr. 1699, Martha Lilly, in his will of 16 Jan. 1733 names w. Martha, and ds. Martha, Ruth, Rebecca, Hannah, Mary, and Dorothy. MAUTLYN, or MACKLIN, Boston 1643, had w. Dorothy. MICHAEL, Woburn, m. 20 Oct. 1657, Mary Bullard, had Mary, b. 14 Oct. 1658; Jonathan, 23 Mar. 1662; Joshua, 20 Jan. 1665; Lydia, 29 Sept. 1674; and he had been adm. freem. 1654. PHILIP, Charlestown, had w. Margery, ch. Jonathan, Philip, Rebecca, Elizabeth and Mary; wh. at his d. were of the ages respective. a. 26, 23, 17, 13, and 11; but he had rem. long, bef. to Topsfield, or near it, and d. Nov. 1668. Perhaps Mary m. 5 June 1677, Daniel Ross. PHILIP, Wenham 1669, s. of the preced. was of Salem 1670. RICHARD, Newbury, prob. younger br. of the first John, came with him from Southampton in the James, 1635, call. in the custom-ho. rec. tailor of Romsey, in Hants, m. says Coffin, Agnes Coffley, wh. d. 29 Mar. 1679, had Rebecca, b. 7 Mar. 1643; Sarah, 23 Mar. 1648; Ann; and Elizabeth He was sw. freem. 25 May 1636, was deac. and d. 4 Aug. 1683, in 81st yr. RICHARD, Weymouth 1637, ment. by Winthrop II. 348, may be he wh. was rec. an inhab. of Boston early in 1642, a slater, being adm. of the ch. a few days bef. and, perhaps, s. of a wid. Sarah, adm. in May 1639; freem. 18 May 1642, by w. Dinah bad Samuel, b. 9 Jan. bapt. 12 Feb. 1643, and bur. 25 Sept. foll.; Joseph, 16, bapt. 18 May 1615; and by w. Joanna had Joanna, b. 24 Jan. 1653; James, 1 Feb. 1665; but it may be very diffic. to disting. him from others of the name. RICHARD, Hampton, perhaps Portsmouth, 1643, was, perhaps, of Dover 1659, or bef. 1668, of Boston, a merch. RICHARD, Boston, by w. Joanna had James, wh. d. 27 Sept. 1662; Sarah, b. 6 Nov. 1656; and Mary, 25 Jan. 1659. RICHARD, Newport 1648, next yr. chos. Gen. Sergent, whatever that may mean, and many yrs. bot. Id. of Ind. on the contin. 1665 in conjunct. with Henry Hall of Westerly. He had eldest s. John of Norwich, as from law papers I learn; and this may imply, that he had other ch. RICHARD, Boston 1673, bricklayer, was call. to [[39]] serve in Philip's war on Conn. riv. in capt. Turner's comp. Perhaps he m. Sarah Kimball, and had d. Elizabeth to wh. her uncle John Kimball gave est. This Richard was bred a carver, but m. a w. of superior mind, Sarah, d. of Thomas Kemble, or Kimball, of Charlestown. They had only ch. Elizabeth wh. m. John Livingston of New London, and outliv. him. Some proof of the mother's literary skill is furnish. by her journal of travels in 1704 from Boston to New York and back, publish. so late as 1825 by Theodore Dwight, Esq. She had rem. aft. the d. of her h. to Norwich, and thence to New London, where she d. 25 Sept. 1727. See Caulkins's Hist. 372. RICHARD, Newbury, s. of the sec. John of the same, m. Elizabeth d. of Henry Jacques, had Henry, b. 6 July 1697; and Elizabeth 11 Mar. 1702. ROBERT, Hampton 1640, rem. to Boston, had, by first w. Samuel, b. 1642, wh. prob. d. young. He m. Ann, the young wid. of Thomas Cromwell, the rich privateersman, I presume early in 1650, and may thereafter have spent a yr. or more in Maine, but had Edward, b. 5 Feb. 1652; and Martha, 1 Sept. 1653; beside James, in 1654, wh. prob. d. soon; and he d. 27 June 1655; his will of 8 May preced. gave all to w. with care of only ch. Edward and Martha. ROBERT, Marblehead 1648, may be he wh. d. at Cambridge 29 Oct.1652; but nothing more is kn. There was a ROBERT of Marblehead 1673.

THOMAS, Salem 1661, a mason, perhaps s. of Walter. TOBY, Newport 1638. WALTER, Salem 1626, had been here in 1622, and is now sent over by the Dorchester people to strengthen Conant; perhaps was of Duxbury 1638; in 1653 giv. evidence a. something that occur. in 1622, perhaps only hearsay, he call. his age 66. WILLIAM, Salem, a mason, had gr. of ld. 1637, yet seems rather to belong to Lynn, freem. 2 May 1638, had John, Ann, Francis, Hannah, all by sec. w. Elizabeth Jacob, Daniel, Elizabeth and Mary, and d. 5 Mar. 1656. From Lewis was this acco. deriv. by Farmer; yet there is evid. that he had John and Francis, Joanna, and Mary only, all brot. from Eng. and that the s. both went home, and there Francis d. without issue; but John aft. serv. the parliam. cause in the civil war, obt. possessn. of est. in Eng. that was his f.'s m. and d. in that country. His will, of 2 Dec. 1653, provides for div. of est. among the ch. of both ws. ea. nam. and to eldest s. Jacob doub. portion. The inv. was ret. when the will was pro. 28 June 1655. WILLIAM, Topsfield, came, perhaps, in 1638, tho. by no means can I [[40]] agree with Farmer in mak. him freem. on 2 May of that yr. imply of course that he had come as early as 1637, when the prefix of resp. is wanting to this name next yr.; however it may be that he came not bef. 1639, in wh. yr. he had gr. of 200 acres at Ipswich, to the outlying farmers of wh. town, in 1641, at the place call. New Meadows, he began to preach. This was 8 or 9 yrs. bef. the incorp. by its present name, nor was a ch. allow. to be gather. there bef. 1645, as Winthrop II. 254, tells, so that prob. K. was discourag. at least bef. 1648 we kn. he went home. Mather, putting him into his first classis of min. found no Christian name for him, yet as above twenty others of the same list show the same deficiency, we may be sure, he did not much inquire. Of this name, had, in 1834, eight been gr. at the var. N. E. coll. yet none at Harv. KNOCKER, GEORGE, and THOMAS, misprint. thus in Geneal. Reg. III. 80 for Knower of Charlestown.

Yet Brook's Lives of the Purit. III. sub voce, with Crosby's Hist. of Bapt. I. 334, furnish. more favora. views of his charact. and even Mather's Magn.

JOSEPH, Mass. 1639. Felt. SAMUEL, Malden, by w. Elizabeth had Samuel, b. 28 Dec. 1690; is in Geneal; Reg. VI. 336 an error, for the f.'s name is Kenny. This name is, also, falsely spell. Knowlton in Vol. X. 163 of the same valu. periodic. tho. it is right in Vol. VI. 336. THOMAS, Charlestown, perhaps br. of George, was punish. 1632, and went home I suppose, but came again in 1635, then call. 33 yrs. with Nell (as I judge the name print. Moll) 29; and Sarah, 7; thot. to be w. and d. in the Abigail, bear. the clk.'s designat. at the London custom-ho. Knore; and d. Nov. 1641. His inv. is on our rec. as that of Thomas Knocker.

His wid. d. 24 Oct. 1732. HENRY, Warwick, on list of freem. 1655, in 1644, was of Portsmouth, R. I. and had, I suppose, m. a d. of Robert Potter of Warwick; and 1671 was in his 62d yr. 6 Jan. when, I judge, his will was made, by wh. he names s. John, William, and Henry, ds. Mary, wh. had m. g Nov. 1668, Moses Lippit, and Martha, w. of Samuel Eldredge; and at Kingstown, or into Piarraganset, that disput. territory, prob. all the brs. and sis. were gather. HENRY, Kingstown, s. of the preced. m. Alice, d. of Thomas Fish, had no ch. but in his will of 1726, names sis. Martha Eldredge, and sev. neph. and nieces.

He was not prob. a sett. min. bef. com. over to us in Aug. 1638; he join. uith the ch. at Boston 15 Aug. of next yr. hav. m. prob. in Eng. the wid. of Ephraim Davis; in Mar. foll. was dism. to go to aid Phillips at W. and there was ord. 9 Dec. 1640 as pastor, went on a mission, 1642, to Virginia, back next yr. was freem. 1650, and next yr. went home, and for some time preach. at Bristol, was silenc. by the act of 1662, and dur. the plague of London, 1665, was there with w.

He had at W. by w.

Both he and his w. were liv. 1678. Elizabeth m. at Haverhill, 14 May 1663, Nathaniel Smith. Part of the fam. tradit. that Nathaniel, f. of Daniel was from Dartmouth, in Devon, may be reasona. eno. at least it bears no inherent improb. as the more fondly desir. clause of the story does, that he was one of the first comers to Plymouth; for that phrase belongs only to those wh. arr. in the yrs. 1620, 1, and 3, of wh. was no Ladd; and minute inquiry even shows, there was nobody in either of the three passeng. lists with that bapt. name.

THOMAS, Lynn, freem. 14 Mar. 1639, rep. 12 yrs. betw. 1646 and 61, had Thomas, Margaret, Samuel, Rebecca, and Elizabeth THOMAS, Saco 1645, had John, wh. m. 1665, Martha, d. of Robert Booth: Folsom.

THOMAS, Dover, only s. of Thomas of the same, freem. 1672, m. a d. of Hatevil Nutter, had Thomas, Elizabeth and John; and d. bef. 1711. Elizabeth m. Philip Cromwell, and, next, Philip Chesley. THOMAS, Lynn, perhaps s. of the first Thomas, freem. 1680, m. 28 Dec. 1670, Sarah Redknap, had Thomas, b. 15 Oct. 1671; Sarah, 16 Sept. 1673; Joseph, 14 Oct. 1675; and Margaret, 13 June 1677; his w. d. 26 Feb. 1680, and he m. 2 Dec. foll.

One Laighton, common. in the earlier day, spelt conform. to sound, Layton, was k. by the Ind. near Swanzey, on the first hour of outbreak of Philip's war; 24 June 1675. In our day the name is usual. Laughton or Leighton, and it is very difficult to trace. LAKE, HENRY, Salem 1649, a currier, perhaps the same wh. was of Dorchester 1658, br. of Thomas of the same. JAMES, Mass. 1647. Felt. Perhaps only a trans. one. JOHN, Boston 1643, a tailor; freem. [[45]] 1644, by w.

Lucy, and gave her some of his est. resid. to John and Mary, ch. of his br. but ment. no ch. of his own. His will of 4 of the same mo. as Hammond in his Diary tells, was writ. by Richard Sharp of Boston, wh. d. the next day, so one day bef. testat. and Lake's wid. d. 13 May foll. JOHN, Boston, perhaps neph. of the preced. d. 1691, unm. LANCELOT, Boston 1695, a physician, of wh. nothing is kn. but that he m. 6 May 1708, wid. Catharine Child, and 3 Mar. foll. in his will, pro. 3 Oct. 1715, gave her all his est. He d. 17 Sept. and, I presume, it was a doubt in the mind of the wid. whether the est. would amount to the few shillings of expense. His gr.stone was lately found in the cemetery of King's Chapel. THOMAS, Dorchester, freem. 2 June 1641, d. 27 Oct. 1678; his w. Alice, wh. was ten yrs. older, hav. d. 7 days bef. Oft. the name was writ. yet prob. not by hims. Like, or Leake. His will, made aft. d. of his w. names no ch. but gives his prop. to br. Henry, and equal. to childr: of br. H. exc. that Thomas should have £5 more. THOMAS, Boston, where he own. lds. bef: his resid. an emin. merch. came from London to New Haven, there m. Mary, d. of Stephen Goodyear, the dep.-gov. of that col. had Stephen, b. 13 Feb. 1650; Mary, 27 July 1663, d. in few wks.; Thomas, 9 Feb. 1657; Mary, again, 1 May 1659, d. soon; Edward, 28 June 1661, d. soon; Edward, again, 15 July 1662, d. soon; Ann, 12 Oct. 1663; John, 22 Feb. 1666; Nathaniel, 18 July 1668; Rebecca, 6 July 1670; and Sarah, 14 Sept. 1671. He purch. 1654, from John Richards, half of Arousick isl. in the Kennebeck, and many yrs. held a trad. house there, was freem. 1671, selectman, had large transact. with the Ind. by wh. he was k. 14 or 16 Aug. 1676, being on a visit. He had made his will dur. a sickness so long bef. as 27 Jan. 1664, from wh. we learn, that he was br. of John, that his w. had sis. Lydia, and not much more. His est. was large; and his s. Thomas enjoy. it at London, where he d. 22 May 1711, at the Middle Temple; and his d. Ann, w. of Rev. John Cotton at Hampton, m. 17 Aug. 1686, next, of Rev. Increase Mather, wh. she surv. d. at Brookline, 29 Mar. 1737. WILLIAM, Salem 1665, a cooper; perhaps s. of Henry, m. a. Aug. 1661, Ann Stratton, had Ann, b. 1 June 1662, d. soon; Abigail, 21 Apr. 1667; Mary, 1 Feb. 1669; and William, 12 Mar. 1675; was allow. 1674, to sell beer and cider, as was his wid. Ann in 1681. Of Mrs. Margaret L. at New London 1646, and many yrs. aft. at Ipswich [see Geneal. Reg. Vl. 165], much hard labor has been expend. by Miss Caulkins to learn her derivat. and m. but in vain. She d. says Felt, 1672, leav. two ds. Hannah, w. of John Gallop; and Martha, w. of Thomas Harris. LAKEMAN, WILLIAM, rep. of the Isle of Shoals 1692, says Farmer. LAKIN, JOHN, Reading, br. prob. younger of William, was driv. from Groton, I suppose, dur. the Ind. war, but had, by w. Mary, Sarah, b. 4 [[46]] Feb. 1662; William, 12 May 1664; Abigail, 13 Mar. 1667; Joseph, 14 Apr. 1670; Benjamin, 6 Nov. 1672; and Josiah, 14 Sept. 1675; and prob. went back to G. where he was ens. and had been of the first sett. d. 21 Mar. 1697. His f. was s. of William, and d. in Eng. says Butler, and his wid. m. William Martin; but his name is not giv. Three of the s. perhaps all, had fam. He had a d. Mary, elder than any of these ch. m. 18 July 1674, Henry Willard; and Sarah m. a. 1691, Benjamin Willard. THOMAS, is by Farmer, mistak. for the foll. WILLIAM, Groton, freem. 1670, d. 10 Dec. 1672, in 90th or 91st yr. Tradit. more credib. than common makes him bring the gr.ch. William and John, perhaps at the same time with William Martin of Reading, wh. m. their mo. yet it does not tell the name of their f. nor whether the mo. m. in Eng. to Martin, nor whether the gr.f. had w. on this side of the water, nor when or whence he came. Both he and Martin were engaged in planta. 1655, of Groton. Shattuck, 95, borrows the tradit. of Butler in Hist. of G. 273, that he emigr. in his old age from Redington. But this must be mistake, as there is no such place in Eng. Prob. the parish of Ridlington is meant. That is a small parish in the hundred of Martinsley, Co. Rutland, 2 and 1/4 ms. from Uppingham; or more likely the native seat of the Lakins may have been the smaller parish of the same name in the hundred of Tunstead, Co. Norfk. 4 and 1/4 ms. from North Walsham. If he came with Martin his old age should not be thot. of; for he pass. above thirty yrs. here. WILLIAM, Reading, br. of John, by w. Lydia, d. of the first Abraham Brown, had William, b. 6 May 1655; John, 3 Jan. 1658; and Jonathan, 28 June 1661; rem. to Groton and had Abraham, 10 Jan. 1664, d. soon; William, May 1665; Abraham, again, 11 Sept. 1667; and Elias, 8 Jan. 1669; was freem. 1672, unless (wh. is not prob.) it was he, not his gr.f. in 1670; lieut. 1673; and d. 22 Feb. 1700. Great list of descend. appears in Butler's valua. Hist. of G. LAMB, ABEL, Cambridge, perhaps s. of Thomas of Roxbury, in the employm. of William French, was bur. 16 Oct. 1649. ABIEL, Roxbury, s. of Thomas, was one of brave capt. Johnson's comp. Dec. 1675, had bapt. there s. Harbottle, 28 Feb. 1675; Abiel, b. 23 Dec. bapt. 4 Jan. 1680; Jonathan, b. 11 Nov. 1682; and Samuel, bapt. 12 Apr. 1685; but I kn. not his w. and suspect, that be liv. over the line of the town, for the town rec. has not one of these b. He rem. to Framingham, then pt. of Sudbury, a. 1695, was constable 1700, selectman 1701, and d. bef. 1710. CALEB, Roxbury, mariner, br. of the preced. m. 30 June 1669, Mary, d. of Joseph Wise, had Thomas, b. 26 Apr. bapt. 15 May 1670; Caleb, 29, bapt. 31 Dec. 1671; Joseph, 11, bapt. 16 Nov. 1673; Mary, 13 Apr. 1678, d. soon; Jeremiah, 24, bapt. 25 May 1679; Mary, again, 7, bapt. 13 Mar. 1681; Elizabeth bapt. 4 Mar. 1683 (but the town rec. has, erron. I suppose, John, b. 5 Apr. 1683); John, [[47]] 29, bapt. 30 Mar. 1684; and Eunice, bapt. 22 Nov. 1685, of wh. is no ment. in the town rec. that supplies Huldah, b. 31 Jan. 1688. He d. Barry thinks, a. 1697. DANIEL, Springfield, prob. s. of John, freem. 1690, had a fam. and d. 1692. EDWARD, Watertown 1633, had w. Margaret; ch. Hannah, b. 27 Dec. 1633; Mary, 10 Sept. 1635, d. soon; Samuel, 3 Apr. 1637; Mary, again, 30 Apr. 1639; John, and Increase, tw. 13 Feb. 1640, d. both in a wk.; and rem. to Boston, there had Elizabeth bapt. 27 Aug. 1648, a. 11 days old. His wid. m. Samuel Allen. Coll. Rec. III. 216 and IV. pt. I. p. 31. JOHN, Springfield 1653, prob. s. of Thomas, came 1630, with his f. had John, b. 1654, d. soon; John, and Thomas, tw. 1655, of wh.

JOHN, New London 1664-9, was offer. in the latter yr. to be made freem. in Nov. 1677 lost a s. by being struck by a mill-wheel, as told in Bradstreet's Journ. He perhaps was in 1712 in that pt. made Groton. JOSHUA, Roxbury, B. of Thomas, m. Mary, d. of John Alcock, had Joshua, bapt. 7 Mar. 1675; Dorothy, 8 June 1679; George, 27 Mar. 1681; John, 22 Apr. 1683, d. soon; Elizabeth b. 2 Mar. 1684, d. soon; John, again, 3, bapt. 8 Feb. 1685, d. at four mos.; and Samuel, 9, bapt. 11 Apr. 1686. He was a merch. purch. of Sir William Berkeley, lands at Roanoke in Virg. wh. he sold 1677, and d. 23 Sept. 1690. His wid. d. 9 Oct. 1700. Dorothy, m. Rev.

Barry calls this last ch. of Elizabeth Caleb; but the ch. rec. is copious, and explicit to the contra. The town rec. said Benjamin, b. 27 Nov. but a modern hand eras. that, and wrongful. ins. Caleb. Such violat. of the vestal purity of rec. is less rare than might be expect. He m. 16 July 1640, Dorothy Harbottle, "a godly sis. of the ch." had Caleb, b. 9 Apr. 1641; Joshua, 27, bapt. 28 Nov. 1642; Mary, bapt. 29 Sept. 1644; and Abiel, 2 Aug. 1646.

Preserved had Daniel, b. 3 Oct. 1658; Sarah, 7 Feb. 1660; Ezekiel, 3 Mar. 1661; Samuel, wh. d. 7 July 1662, prob. very young; Samuel, again, 16 Mar. 1664; Mary, 26 Apr. 1667; Jonathan, 27 Dec. 1669; Hannah, Dec. 1671, d. in few days; and Ebenezer, 2 Apr. 1674; at Lynn again till d. 28 Oct. 1676.

Goodyear, and others, wh. was never heard of. Johnson, in his W. W. P. and Winthrop II. 266, well relate the matter; but Mather, Magn. I. 25, has prov. the gr. superiority result. from tradit. of a story told 50 yrs. aft. to the contempo. narrat. By tak. the "dimensions" of the sh. in the air, Mather's worthy corresp. could make her a. 150 tons. His readers admit, that benefits of similar measure the ecclesiast. hist. gain. in his everyday life. He left wid. wh. m. dep. gov. Stephen Goodyear, and, perhaps, ds.

LANDON, JAMES, Boston, or Charlestown, memb. of the first Bapt. ch. 1670. Mr.Wyman thinks this name was Lowden. JOSEPH, Bristol 1688, with no w. or ch. LANE, AMBROSE, Portsmouth 1648-50, then call.

ANDREW, Hingham 1635, s. of William, was call. feltmaker, by w. Tryphena [[51]] had Mary, Abigail, and Andrew, all bapt. in Aug. 1646; John, 30 Jan. 1648; and with this s. I pause to expose many errors. To him is giv. s. Samuel, b. 16 Mar. 1678 by w. Mehitable Hobart. Sorry am I to obs. that in the Geneal. Reg. XIII 91, the statem. that "John, bapt. in Norton, 30 June 1648, m. Mehitable Hobart," labors under such incongru. It says that Andrew and Tryphena had seven childr. when the names of nine are kn. No s. Samuel had he, no Mehitable Hobart can be found for that John to m. and he could not be bapt. at Norton that day, for the town was not begun to be sett. till many yrs. aft. nor could he be bapt. anywhere else in N. E. on 30 June 1648, wh. was not Sunday, but Friday. Beside those four ch. we find Ephraim, bapt. Feb. 1650; Deborah, 20 June 1652; Joshua, 20 Aug. 1654; Caleb, 17 July 1657; and Hannah, 17 Oct. 1658; and he d. 1 May 1675. His wid. d. 2 June 1707, "a. 95 yrs. of age," says the town rec. All the ds. were m. Abigail m. perhaps, John Low, first, but certain. 27 Dec. 1665, Daniel Stodder, and Deborah m. 30 Dec. 1674, William Sprague; but whether the date of Mary, wh. m. William Orcutt, were earlier or later in m. than her sis. Abigail, is uncert.; and Hannah m. Thomas with a surname utterly illegib. in the orig. and plain. false in the copy of Prob. reg. All the s. and the hs. of the ds. gave, 27 July 1675, to their ms. acquit. of the est. of dec. for her life, wh. has signa. of each, but Orcutt's is by [ ] mark, and the h. of the youngest d. might as well have used a bear's claw to write his.

But the age was not, I think, quite so credul. as to receive for "absolute verity" assert. that the mo. d. thirteen days bef. her last ch. was b.

LARKHAM, MORDECAI, Beverly 1681, has num. descend. it is believ. writ. the name Larcom. THOMAS, Dover 1640, was a cause, or occasion [[57]] of trouble, tho. so popular for a time that the people call. their town aft. that from wh. he came, Northam, near Barnstable, in Devon; but he went off in 1642, d. at home 1669, in 68th yr. His s. George, bred at. Trinity Coll. Cambridge, was min. of Cockermouth, in Cumberland, eject. 1662, d. 26 Dec. 1700, in 71st yr. LARKIN, EDWARD, Charlestown 1638, by w.

Gladly would we receive better notes of this very num. fam. If the stocks spring from Edward alone, or not, is not kn. to me. At Salem, in 1668, was Mordecai, but unless he be the same as Larcom, of him I hear nothing, exc. that he sign. that yr. petit. against imposts. LARRABEE, BENJAMIN, Falmouth, s. of Isaac, a milit. man, recov. the prop. of his f. wh. with his fam. had been forc. to fly from the war, m.

LATHAM, CARY, Cambridge, m Elizabeth d. of John Masters, and prob. wid. of Edmund Lockwood, had Thomas, b.

Groton side of the harbor of New London was the resid. of the fam. still perpet. there. WILLIAM, PlYmouth, came in the Mayflower, 1620, serv. to Gov. Carver, only a youth, and, in 1627, had sh. in the div. of cattle, being in the lot with Gov. Bradford, yet was never nam. as one of the Mayflower's comp. in 1620 when he was a boy under Carver's charge, and for the div. of lds. in 1624, with ano. serv. of C. may have help. John Howland to count four heads. By the discov. of Bradford's Hist. his right to passage in the first sh. is prov. He was of Duxbury 1637-9, and Marshfield [[59]] 1643, and 8, and in Bradford we see, that aft. so long resid. here, he went home to Eng. thence to the Bahamas, and d. of starvation. Of one Latham, in our country, there is idle tradit. that he was brot. up with Charles I. but no benefit or evil of the companionsh. is boasted. LATHROP. See Lothrop. LATTIMORE, or LATIMER, CHRISTOPHER, Marblehead 1648, in 1663 sold dwel.-ho. to Robert Hooper, but was there liv. 1675.

RICHARD, Concord, had Josiah, b. 20 Feb. 1641; and ano. s. on 12 Sept. 1643; but the rec. gives not the name; rem. to Fairfield, and thence in few yrs. to L. I. a. Huntington. In 1663 he was order. to depart for not submit. to jurisdict. of Conn. and in Nov. 1672 was by New York denounc. for disloyal speech against the Duke. LAUGHTON, THOMAS, Boston 1660. He was of Lynn 1666-79, and prob. had s. Thomas, as he is call. sen. in later yrs. LAURENSON, JAMES, and JOHN, Newtown, L. I. 1686, were prob. of Dutch descent.

Jeremiah, John Jonathan, Joseph, and Lydia But conject. is bold eno. to suggest, that the same man is intend. where Felt, II. 447, places the graveyard "on the hill above Francis Lawe's ho.;" and there is no doubt of the soundness of the conject. after turn. to the artic. Lawes in this volume; but whose reading, Felt's or Patch's should be prefer. must be left to ano. eye to decide. GILBERT, Boston 1686, went to preach that yr. in abs. of Moody, at Portsmouth, was prob. a Scotchman, and may be presum. to have gone home in 1689. LAVENUKE, STEPHEN, a Frenchman, m. 25 Sept. 1672, Mary Dival, perhaps French also, had Isabella, b. 22 Dec. 1673; Judith, 1677, wh. d. 22 Apr. 1758; and Stephen, in 1678, wh. d. 1 Jan. 1764.

Sarah says the rec. d. 24 Jan. 1661, at Malden, and I find admin. 2 Apr. foll. on est. of wid. Jane (but no doubt the same person), of M. yet I am wholly unable to guess wh. would have been the h. unless she were a sec. w. of William, or we presume the rec. of adm. into the ch. means only to designate her as his w. without giv. a name. This to me seems the best solution. LEATHERS, EDWARD, Dover 1665. Perhaps he was common. regard. as of Gipsey blood. LEAVENWORTH, DAVID, and THOMAS, Woodbury, as Cothren, in his Hist. p. 612, tells by aid of tradit. came a 1690 from Germany; and that David was drown. in youth; and of Thomas, nothing. But one of my Hartford correspond. refers to the State archives as contain. a docum. of 11 June 1684, by Grace L. wid. of Woodbury, and my own suspic. is that the German derivat. should be some centuries earlier.

Joseph Dudley, his harshness of admonit. and resolution to govern. Ano. d. Catharine was w. of Henry Howell, aft. of Stephen Sewall; and this connex. was assoc. with one of the principal causes of the many miseries that afflict. the latter days of Cotton Mather. See 4 Mass.

Even if he puts his arr, a dozen yrs. too early, as to me seems prob. he borders on presumpt. in clos. with assert. "no monum. inscript. in N. E. but his will date back to 1580." Surely one dozen, if not two, of the first score of yrs. comers to N. E. includ. Elder Brewster and Gov. Dudley, must have been b. as early as this venerab. head of the Lelands.

STEPHEN, Hingham, s. of the preced. never m. was ens. town clk. and d. 27 Dec. 1717; THOMAS, Hingham 1636, the weaver, elder br. of the first Samuel, was two yrs. or more at Watertown and Charlestown, having, says the Cushing MS. come with Nicholas Jacob, a relat. in 1633; had gr. of lds. in 1635, and house lot gr. 3 July 1636, so that he would be judged a first sett. with Hobart, and may have been the freem. of MR. 1638 or of 18 May 1642. His first w. Susanna d. Mar. 1641, and he had ano. w. Mary, who, by one report, prob. erron. outliv. him, and d. 2 Sept. 1675, leav. no ch. His will is without date, but well pro. provides for w. gives small legacy to br. Samuel, larger to Samuel, and Daniel, s. of that br. and smaller to ea. of the other liv. cb. exc.

THOMAS, Hingham, the miller, prob. came 1635, certain. had [[94]] house lot 3 July 1636, brot. sev. ch. perhaps two or three. rem. a. 1652 to Taunton, where he took sec. w. 10 Dec. 1665, Elizabeth Streete, prob. wid. of Francis. He, in his will of 28 Aug. 1683, call. hims. "eighty yrs. or thereabout," pro. 6 Mar. foll. he ment. with these ch. of former w. Thomas, John, Samuel, Sarah, Mary, and s.-in-law Joseph Willis, perhaps h. of Sarah, and Sarah's s. Thomas. In Geneal. Reg. VI. 188, it is print. Linton. THOMAS, Hingham, the cooper, s. of Thomas, in O. E. had gr. in the town 1636, more likely, in my judgment, than either of the preced. to have been the freem. of Mar. 1638, had, bef. com. from Eng. m. 1630, a a. of Andrew Lane, had two ch. of wh. one d. and the other, Sarah, was brot. and d. soon aft. arr. and here had Thomas, bapt. 6 May 1638; Joseph, 22 Nov. 1640, bef. ment.; Benjamin, 7 May 1643, bef. ment.; Deborah, 3 Aug. 1645; and Sarah, 6 Oct. 1650, d. young. His w. wh. name is unkn. d. 13 Feb. 1683, and he d. 28 Sept. 1691. His will, of 13 July 1688, names the four liv. ch. Deborah m. 13 June 1678, as sec. w. Samuel Thaxter. Tradit. brings him from West of Eng. where he left br. John This may seem not improb. if we substitute E. for W. The name belong. to Co. Norf'k. or the adj. Co. Lincoln. THOMAS, Hingham 1638, the husbandman, br. of the first Stephen, prob. younger, had gr. of ld. 1638, came, says the Cushing MS. in 1638 from Wymondham, Co. Norf'k. with Jeremiah Moore, perhaps is the freem. of 18 May 1642, had w. Margaret, d. of Richard Langer, and ch. Caleb, bapt. 8 Oct. 1643, d. soon; Joshua and Caleb, tw. 2 Mar. 1645, of wh. the latter, I think, liv. not long; Susanna; Mary, b. 10, bapt. 23 Apr. 1648; Sarah, 29 Sept. bapt. 6 Oct. 1650; Thomas, 26 Dec. 1652; Elizabeth and Ruth, b. 19 Nov. 1664. He d. 16 Aug. 1692; but his will, of 24 May 1681, names the w. and eight ch. His d. Susanna m. 16 May 1666, to Joseph Barstow of Scituate; Mary m. 5 Jan. 1675, Francis Barker of Duxbury; Sarah m. 6 May 1675, Thomas Marsh; Elizabeth m. 23 Jan. 1678, Daniel Lincoln, bef. ment.; and Ruth, m. Jan. 1685, Samuel Gill. It seems very curious, that at our Hingham, within the first three yrs. of its sett. should be found four heads of fams. nam. Thomas Lincoln, and yet at Hingham in O. E. where this fam. name was quite freq. not one Thomas occurs in the rec. from 1600 to 1663 incl. neither as f. nor s. among ms. 15 in number, of wh. 8 were of males, nor among 28 bur. nor among, 62 bapt. Clearly the other parishes of Co. Norf'k. had the name of bapt. in greater abund. for males of this surname.

Nov. 1632, tho. the rec. calls the parents, Edward and Elizabeth "Elder childr." by order of Ct. 2 June 1635, to be dispos. of, leaves no doubt of a former w. Perhaps the wid. was d. of John Masters, wh. in his will, 19 Dec. 1639, leaves handsome sum to his gr.ch. John L. She m. Cary Latham. EDMUND, Stamford 1651, perhaps s. of the preced. on d. of his br.

E. took the o. of freem. in Mass. 1 Apr. 1634, when he was, perhaps, of Dorchester, but soon went to Scituate, where he may have been earlier, but with his w. join. the ch. 19 Apr. 1635, thence to Barnstable, with Lothrop, hav. then Joshua, and Mary, bapt. at S. 8 Oct. 1637, not 57 as in Geneal. Reg. XII. 249, the former, perhaps, b. in Eng. but at B. where be was ensign 1652, had Martha, bapt. 3 Nov. 1639, not, as in Geneal. Reg. XII. 249, perhaps d. soon, for in Col. Rec. Martha, b. 19 Sept. 1640, tho. we may suspect error in this; and [[106]] Jabez, 4 July 1641; yet Col. Rec. makes this b. 1 July 1642. When he d. I kn. not, but presume it was aft. 1664. Mr. Hamblen discov. that he was b. 1607 or 8. Mary m. 1 Dec. 1654, George Lewis, jr.; and Martha m. 1 July 1657, John Martin.

JABEZ, Barnstable, s. of Bernard, m. 1 Dec. 1660, Sarah, a. of Martha Derby, had a s. b. 18 Feb. 1662, d. very soon; Elizabeth June 1663; Mary, Apr. 1666; Bernard, Apr. 1668; John, Apr. 1670; Matthew, 28 Aug. 1672; Mehitable, Sept. 1674; Abigail, Apr. 1677; Nathaniel, 1 Aug. 1679; and Hepzibah, Dec. 1681.

JOHN, Springfield 1646, m. at New Haven, 1 Sept. 1647, Joanna Pritchard, had John, b. 1648, a. at 24 yrs.; David, 1650, bef. ment.; and Nathaniel, 1654, d. young; and he d. 15 May 1672. This name was at S. writ. Lumbard, as sound. JONATHAN, Barnstable, s. of the first Joshua, m. 11 Dec. 1683, Elizabeth Eddy, d. perhaps of Zechariah, had Jonathan, b. 20 Nov. 1684; Alice, 19 Oct. 1686; Ebenezer, 1 Feb. 1688; and Abigail, 12 July 1691. JOSHUA, Barnstable, s. perhaps of Bernard, prob. b. in Eng. but may be more prob. of Thomas, m. 27 May 1651, Abigail, d. of Robert Linnell, had Abigail, b. 6, bapt. 11 Apr. 1652; Mercy, 15 June 1665; Jonathan, 28 Apr. 1657; and Joshua, 16 Jan. 1661. JOSHUA, Barnstable, s. prob. of the preced. m. 6 Nov. 1682, Hopestill Bullock, had Mercy, b. 16 Mar. 1684; Hopestill, 15 Nov. 1686; Joshua, 5 Aug. 1688; Samuel, 1 June 1690; Abigail, 20 Jan. 1692; Mary, 22 Nov. 1697; Elizabeth 22 Apr. 1700; and Jonathan, 16 Apr. 1703; and d. Oct. 1724. RICHARD, Scituate 1640, was of Tenterden, Co. Kent, and went home that yr. says Deane. THOMAS, Dorchester, came, prob. bringing Bernard, and two other ch. in the Mary and John 1630, req. to be made freem. 19 Oct. of that yr. and was adm. 18 May foll. rem. in few yrs. perhaps to Scituate first, but to Barnstable by 1640, had Jedediah there, bapt. 19 Sept. 1641; and Benjamin, not 5 (as in Geneal. Reg. XII; 249) but 27 Aug. 1643. That he had other ch. of wh. one or two must have been b. in Eng. is plain eno. from his will of 23 Mar. 1663, in wh. while he names these, he ment. that he formerly gave prop. to s. Barnard; Joshua; Joseph, b. a. 1638; and s.-in-law Edward Colman, wh. m. 27 Oct. 1648, his d. Margaret; provides for w. Joyce, and s. Caleb. Perhaps he had, also, younger d. Jemima, wh. may have made a runaway match with Joseph Benjamin at Boston, 10 June 1661; and liv. many yrs. aft. her f. at New London. THOMAS, Barnstable, perhaps br. [[107]] perhaps s. of Bernard, m. 23 Dec. 1660, Elizabeth Darby or Derby, had Sarah, b. Dec. 1666; Thomas; Elizabeth; Mary; Hannah; Jabez; Rebecca; Bethia; Bathshua; and Patience, given by Mr. Hamblen from the rec. Geneal. Reg. XII. 249, with so many inconsist. dates that we kn. not wh. may be correct. In Col. Rec. we read, "Joseph, Benjamin, and Jeremiah, 10 June 1671," wh. perhaps, means that they d. or were bur. that day at B. LOMMAKS, NATHANIEL, Dover 1672 to 88, was s. of Edward. See Loomis. LONDON, JOHN, Windsor, was a soldier in Philip's war. Trumbull, Coll. Rec. II. 396, 9. The Conn. counc. of war (for his com. from the army without license in Jan. 1676, calumn. the officers, and report. many notorious lies), sent him to prison, but he was soon releas. on acknowledg. of his offence, and promise to do good service. He was engag. in the work of befooling Sir Edmund Andros in 1680 about the regicide Goffe, and swore, in N. Y. 20 Apr. 1680, where A. was then Gov. that G. was, in Apr. 1678, liv. at Hartford, and that James Richards, wh. was the oldest mem. of the Counc. and the richest man in the Col. was agt. of G. and that if he, L., discov. the matter it would tend to his ruin; and much other preposterous stuff he testif. All wh. trifling was, with the letter of Andros to Conn. Gov. and their reply, print. in 1855. See the curious matter in Conn. Hist. Coll. III. 284, et seq. showing how the letter of Gov. Andros from New York, of 18 May, was receiv. on 10 June, twenty-three days from date, and travel. almost six miles a day. Perhaps Gov. Leete was innocent of the deception, but he must have been blind, or deaf, or both, not to have suspect. the contrivance, distrust. the agent. LONG, ABTEL, Newbury, s. of Robert of the same, m. 27 Oct. 1682, Hannah, d. of Mr. Joseph Hill, had Abiel, b. 24 July 1683, d. in few wks.; Hannah, 6 Nov. 1684; and Benjamin, 1 Sept. 1691; and d. 13 Apr. 1743, aged 94.

RICHARD, Cambridge 1632, s. of Thomas, who, perhaps, had sent him to look out the most desirable place for his friends, Gov. Haynes and Rev. Thomas Hooker, was freem. 4 Mar. 1635, but next yr. rem. with Hooker and his f. to Hartford, and Gov. Haynes soon foll. He was an orig. propr. and one of the earliest sett. capt. of the first troop in the Col. rep. 1657 to 61, and is nam. in the Union chart. of 1662, but bef. at was brot. over, d. at New London, 17 May 1662, in 51st yr. if the fig. well decyph. from the honorab. inscript. on a crumbling sandstone monu. See Caulkins's Hist. of New London. Porter says he d. 17 May 1662, but he says also, he was rep. to his d. and the latest yr. of his serv. as 61; and Goodwin makes his d. 10 May 1662, only 3 week diff. from Caulkins. His wid. was Sarah; the ch. Richard, b. 1636; Sarah, 1638; and Dorothy. He was the capt. relied on, in conjunct. with John Pyncheon, for secur. the persons of the regicides, Goffe and Whalley, that they might be brot. to justice in Eng. as Sir Thomas Temple wrote Secr. Morrice. His loyalty in this went beyond his judgment. See ss. Hist. Coll. VIII. 326. Sarah m. Joseph Haynes.

Richard, had been sent over three yrs. bef. and Thomas stopped at Boston, or Cambridge a yr. or more, but was an orig. propr. and among first sett. at H. Date of his a. is not ascert. but it was a. 1667. His wid. Dorothy, wh. a. 2 Aug. 1676, made her will 8 Feb. 1670, in wh. she names ch. of her dec. s. Thomas; a.

LOWGIE, or LOUGEE, John, came at the age of 16, in the Confidence of London, from Southampton 1638, with Grace, perhaps his sis. as serv. of John Stephens of Caversham, Oxfordsh. This name is preserv. in N. H. but the tradit. of the fam. derives it from a John, wh. came from the Isle of Jersey, seventy yrs. later. LUCAR, MARK, Newport, among freem. 1655. LUCAS, THOMAS, Plymouth, had John, b. 15 July 1656; Mary, 1 Mar. 1658; Benoni, 30 Oct. 1659; Samuel, 15 Sept. 1661; and Wil liam, 13 Jan. 1663; and was k. by the Ind. in Philip's war.

A Mr. L. with prefix of respect was of New Haven 1643, with fam. of six, of wh. no more is heard. He prob. was one of the London associates who soon went home. A Lucas fam. of good est. in N.

LUCE, or LUCY, EXPERIENCE, perhaps of Edgartown, s. of Henry, m. Elizabeth d. of John Manter, had Zephaniah, b. 19 Feb. 1695; perhaps others, and d. 9 Jan. 1747. HENRY, Rehoboth 1668.

Perhaps this man was the guide, in Oct. 1632, in honor of wh. Gov. Winthrop then travelling on foot from Plymouth to W. named a fording place in the North river. But the rec. in Geneal. Reg. IX. 171, calls him Laddon. In the note on p. 146 of the Hist. of Boston, attention is drawn to this name. Diligent as the writer is, his meaning may be misunderstood, when, aft. printing the name Ludham, at the foot, tho. in the text above, and in his [[128]] Index, with me he adopts Luddam, yet, for change of sec. d to h he says, "I follow Prince, wh. follow. or used Winthrop in the original." As the last three words are print. in Italics it might seem, that an insinuation was intend. that I had not used or follow. the orig. A candid reader need not be distressed with such a suspicion, or presume that Mr. Drake believ. such a thing; for the venerable MS. in its original ink is accessib. and here more plain than often it appears. Winthrop wrote the name twice in the same short sentence, the first time, as it was print. by me, and the sec. as giv. in Webster's Ed. of 1790, with h aft. double dd. I was content with one form. Prince struck a mid. course, and the historian of Boston mioht learn from inspection, that the petty deviation from the orig. is seen in the scrupulous annalist, Hale's Ed. 407, and not in the annotator. of Winthrop Nobody would blame Winthrop for spelling the name two ways in one sentence, nor Prince for so slight variance from both; nor quarrel with Secr. Porter in transcrib. the copy that Webster print. for obeying the latter form of Winthrop's writing of the name with an h, nor with me for accepting the earlier form, without that letter. After inspection of the ancient MS. Mr. Drake would observe that his criticism was more than unnecessary; and his readers may excuse the error by inferring that instead of the open, bold Roman types, the natural overflow of his benignant impulses sought the more modest Italic character of censure. JOHN, Weymouth, wh. may have been s. of the preced. was a soldier on Conn. riv. under capt. Turner, in Mar. 1676. This name is not rare in the W. part of Mass. LUDDINGTON, WILLIAM, Charlestown 1642, liv. in the part wh. bec. Malden, by w. Ellen had Mary, b. 6 Feb. 1643; had, also, Matthew, 16 Dec. 1657, d. next mo.; rem. to New Haven, but the time is unkn. there had William; Henry, wh. d. unm. 1676; Hannah; John; and Thomas; and d. at the East Haven iron works, 1662. His wid. m. next yr. John Rose. His inv. calls him of Malden, but the fam. was perpet. at New Haven, by WILLIAM, prob. the eldest surv. s. wh. m.

By sec. w. m. 1690, Mercy Whitehead, he had Mercy, b. 31 May 1691; Hannah, 13 Mar. 1693; John, 31 Jan. 1695; Eliphalet, 28 Apr. 1697; Elizabeth 1699, d. young; Dorothy, 16 July 1702; and Dorcas, 16 July 1701. The name is very rare of any other stock certain. but in the spring of 1635 a Christian L. aged 18 embark. at London, on board the Hopewell. LUDECAS, or LEUDECOES, DANIEL, Dover 1659. His w. d. 1 Nov. 1662; and he d.in 1664. LUDKIN, AARON, Charlestown, prob. s. of George or William, but may have been younger br. of them, or otherwise relat. came, we may [[129]] be sure, from Norwich, Eng. own sev. pieces of ld. in our Hingham, sold by him in 1671. His w. Hannah, d. perhaps, of George Hepbourne, was rec. into the ch. Apr. 1650, yet I find not in Budington's valua. list his adm. tho. he was chos. deac. Feb. 1672. Nor is the acco. much better of ch. for we hear only of Hannah, w. of Samuel Dowse, join. the ch. 15 June 1673. He d. 26 Mar. 1694, In 76th yr. and his wid. Hannah, d. of Richard Miller, wh. had been wid. of Nathaniel Dade, and of John Edmunds, he had m. 22 May 1684, and she d. 13 Dec. 1717, if the gr.stones are correct. GEORGE, Hingham, one of the first drawers for house lots, 1635, came from Norwich, Co. Norf'k. with w. and s. freem. 3 Mar. 1636, rem. to Braintree, there d. 22 Feb. 1648. WILLIAM, Hingham, perhaps br. of the preced. a locksmith, b. at Norwich, aged 33, and his w. Elizabeth aged 34, with one ch. and one serv. Thomas Howes, as we learn from the declar. 8 Apr. 1637, came that season from Ipswich, arr. at Boston, 20 June, freem. Mar. foll. in Boston his d. Esther was bur.

LUDLOW, GEORGE, a gent. with prefix of respect, req. adm. 19 Oct. 1630 as freem. was, perhaps, kinsman of Roger L. then one of the Assist. and may have accomp. him in the Mary and John to Dorchester, but prob. went home in the spring of the foll. yr. for it may be infer. from Col. Rec. of 1 Mar. that a petit. from Eng. had been receiv. to wh. his attent. was to be request. by the Gov. and Council. HENRY, Huntington, L. I. adm. freem. of Conn. 1664; may have been s. of Roger, but we kn. nothing of it. ROGER, Dorchester, came in the Mary and John from Plymouth, May 1630, an Assist. chos. at the last gen. court in London, 10 Feb. 1630, and first attend. at the first Assist. court in Charlestown, Aug. foll. in 1634 was made dept.-gov. but left out next yr. hav. infirmity of temper. He rem. 1635, to Windsor, and in the civil line was chief of a commiss. of eight from Mass. with unlimit. power, 1636, for some time; was engag. in the Pequot war; and the first dept.-gov. of the Col. of CODD. rem. to Fairfield a. 1639, and early in 1641 bot. from the Ind. the territ. on E. side of Norwalk riv. was employ. in 1646 for reduc. their laws to a system, and was Commissnr. 1651, 2, and 3 in the congr. of the Unit. Col. of N. E. but went off next yr. to Virg. in some disgust, and there pass. the residue of his days, under a maledict. for carrying away the town rec. wh. was a charge long aft. refut. by find. the vol. in town. He had a ch. b. at W. but the does not tell the Dame; and his d. Sarah m. Rev. Nathaniel Brewof Brookhaven. That the habit. heedlessness of Mather, II. 33, made his name William, is less matter of surprise than that Farmer was blinded by the blunder. Its origin was prob. reading Mr. as abbrev. for William. [[130]] LUDWELL, JOHN, a passeng. aged 50, in the Confidence from Southampton 1638, hut no more is kn. of him. LUFKIN, HUGH, Salem 1654, says Farmer, and I can add nothing. THOMAS, Gloucester, perhaps s. of Hugh, by w. Mary had Joseph, b. 16 Nov. 1674; Ebenezer, 18 May 1676; Abraham and Isaac, tw. 14 and 16 Feb. says the rec. without ment. of the yr. but it adds (as we might expect), d. same mo.; and Thomas, 9 Apr. 1682. The name is spell. Lovekin or Loufken. Lufkin is a name at Dedham, in Old Eng. LUGG, or LUGGE, JOHN, Boston 1637, by w. Jane had Elizabeth b. 7 Mar. 1638, bapt. 24 Mar. 1639, the mo. aft. his w. join. to the ch.; Mary, b. Aug. 1642, but the rec. of her bapt. 25 Sept. adds, "a. 4 days old;" and John, 4 Aug. 1644, a. 2 days old; and he d. 1647. He is, I presume, the man wh. Felt enumer. among Salem people, as John Lutf, hav. gr. of ld. 1637, because that name never occurs elsewhere except in the list of passeng. to pass for N. E. in the Mary and John, who took the o. of supremacy and alleg. 24 Mar. 1634. Final letters are easily mistaken; and very many of such grants were ineffect. In the will of Samuel Hagborne of Roxbury, 24 July 1643, are giv. "unto my br. Lugrr four bushels of corn, and my suit of apparel." His d. Mary m. 21 Feb. 1659, Nathaniel Barnard. Possib. there were both Luff and Lugg with common name of John, but it appears very unlikely. LUIN, HENRY, Boston, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 20 Aug. 1636; Elizabeth 27 Mar. 1638; and Ephraim, 16 Jan. 1640. LUKE, GEORGE, Charlestown, by w. Hannah had George, bapt. 6 Mar. 1687. LULL, THOMAS, Ipswich, freem. 1672.

Margaret Clemens. In 1654, by our Gen. Ct. rec. it appears, that he was to determine when an offender should be whipp. he, the offend. being then too ill. I trust the adv. of the physician was on the side of mercy, for the poor Scotch prisoner, a waif from the civil war in G. B. d. soon aft. LUNT, DANIEL, Newbury, eldest s. of Henry, m. 16 May 1664, Hannah, d. of Robert Coker, had Hannah, b. 17 May 1665; Daniel, 1 May 1667; Henry 23 June 1669; John, 10 Feb. 1672; Sarah, 18 June 1674; Mary, 24 July 1677; his w. d. 29 Jan. 1679, and he m.

THOMAS, Norwalk 1654, one of the first sett. and adm. to be freem. 1664, but was not actually accounted so in 1669; had two ch. but we learn not their names from Hall, the dilig. histor. and, perhaps, they d. young.

RICHARD, Scituate 1646, by Deane, 309, was reckon. a youth in Elder Brewster's fam. who could claim to have come in the Mayflower, 1620; but I reject that supposition, for the person who had share with Brewster's lot in the div. of cattle, 1627, was not Mann, but More. See Davis's Morton, 382; and Bradford gives the Mayflower Richard More to be count. with the other heads, to Brewster, six in number, at the div. of lds. He had Nathaniel, b. 1646, and d. a. 1656; Thomas, 15 Aug. 1650; Richard, 1652; and Josiah, 1654. The last was prob. that soldier of wh. no more is kn. Of Nathaniel, Deane says he liv. in S. left no fam. gave est. 1680, to his brs. Thomas and Richard, yet refers to his Appx. II. in wh. no more is found. But he may have been short time of Boston. Thomas saw hard fighting and was badly wound. in the Rehoboth day, when Pierce was ambushed; but liv. to have four s. and three ds. of wh. descend. are yet seen. Richard had three s. and four ds.

MAPES, JOHN, aged 21, came from Ipswich in the Francis, 1634; but this name is so very rare in our country, that unless he d. in few yrs. we can hardly mistake in suppos. he was of L.

Perhaps he had first been of Salem, at least Dickinson, who was at the same time with him at Southold, had liv. at Salem some yrs. JOSEPH, Setauket, L. I. 1655, says Thompson's Hist. He may be the same or THOMAS, wh. is by Wood, in his Hist. placed at Southold 1640. MARBLE, JOHN, Boston, by w. Judith, had John, b. 10 Nov. 1646.

MARCH, GEORGE, Newbury, brot. by Stephen Eent, in the Confidence, as a serv. from Southampton, 1638, aged 16, and he may be thot. to be that freem. 1666, at Boston, whose name in Geneal.

THOMAS, Hingham, s. of George, b. in Eng. m. 22 Mar. 1649, Sarah, d. of John Beal, and d. 2 Aug. 1658, leav. four ch. nam. in his will, Thomas; Sarah; Ephraim, b. 11 July 1656; and Mary, 22 Feb. 1658. His s. John, b. 20 Feb. 1654, prob. d. young. His wid. m. 1 Sept. 1662, Edmund Sheffield of Braintree. ZECHARY, Salem, s. of John of the same, m. 15 Aug. 1664, Mary Silsbee, d. of Henry, had John, b. 26 Sept. 1665; Mary, 8 Dec. 1666; Zechariah; Elizabeth; Jonathan, 14 Apr. 1672; and Ebenezer, 28 May 1674; was freem. 1680. Ten of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. eleven at Yale, eleven at Dart. and six at other N. E. coll. MARSHALL, BENJAMIN, Ipswich, s. of the first Edmund, m. 1677, Prudence Woodward, had Edmund, Ezekiel, John, and four ds. d. 1716. CHRISTOPHER, Boston 1634, single man on join. the ch. late in Aug. of that yr. freem. 6 May 1633, was of Cotton's party in the great schism of 1637, but not disarm. as a dangerous heretic, so that he was, perhaps, a student of divinity, and certain. m. here, for his d. Ann was bapt. 13 May 1638, at our ch. adhered to Wheelwright at Exeter, and, with him, had dism. Jan. 1639, from our ch. prob. went home in 1640 or 1, and may be that man wh. Calamy says was partly educ. by our Rev. John Cotton, min. of Woodkirk, in Yorksh. and d. Feb. 1673, aged 59. DAVID, Windsor, s. of capt. Samuel, m. 9 Dec. 1686, Abigail Phelps, d. prob. of Samuel, had Abigail, b. 9 Jan. 1687; Hannah, 8 Dec. 1689; and David, 14 Apr. 1692, wh. d. at 33 yrs. EDMUND, Salem 1636, had there perhaps by w. Milicent, bapt. Naomi, 24 Jan. 1637; Ann, 15 Apr. 1638; Ruth, 3 May 1640; Sarah, 29 May 1642; Edmund, 16 June 1644; and Benjamin, b. 18, bapt. 27 Sept. 1646; was freem. 17 May 1637, liv. a. 1657, short time, at Gloucester, and rem. either to Ipswich or Newbury. EDMUND, Newbury, a shipwright, perhaps s. of the preced. had Edmund, b. 5 Oct. 1677; and [[156]] John, 7 July 1682; but may have had older ch. bef. liv. at N. and possib. rem. to Suffield, there had Martha, 1685; and Elizabeth 1689; for certain it is, that one of the name there liv. and d. by his will, made in 1721, tho. not pro. until a long time aft. ment. these ch. with others, John, Benjamin, Mary, and Abigail. EDWARD, Warwick, by w. Mary had Edward, b. 10 Apr. 1658; John, 12 May 1660; Thomas, 1 Mar. 1663; Mary, 1 July 1666; Charles, 28 June 1668; and Martha, 16 Mar. 1670. EDWARD, Reading, by Mr. Eaton numb. among early sett. may be the same who was freem. at Malden, 1690. ELIAKIM, Boston, s. of Thomas the shoemaker, rem. to Stratford, and in 1665, sold his est. in B. but came back in few yrs. was of Lothrop's comp. in Philip's war, and k. at Bloody brook, 18 Sept. 1675. ELIAKIM, Windsor, fi. of capt. Samuel, m. 23 Aug. 1704, Sarah Liet of Guilford, if that be correct name in Stiles, 1693, had Dorothy, b. 1 Oct. 1705; Sarah, 27 June 1709, prob. d. soon; Sarah, again, 29 Jan. 1711; Mary, 14.Mar. 1715; and Eliakim, 15 July 1720, d. in few days. FRANCIS, Boston, master mariner, came in the Christian from London, 1635, aged 30, was liv. in 1659. JAMES, Windsor 1640, was from Exeter, in Devon, did not long cont. and, per haps, was the man, expect. in vain, to sett. at New Haven 1643, where his est. was val. at £1,000, his fam. of five heads, and his lot, transf. to Richard Mansfield. He sold his W. est. and may be that "rich merch." referred to in Winthrop I. 150. JOEL, Hartford 1682, perhaps s. of Thomas of the same. JOHN, Duxbury, had been of Leahorn, in Co. Kent, s. and heir of Sybil Marshall, by wh. descript. in Nov. 1631, he enters into contr. of m. with Mary, eldest d. of Rev. Ralph Partridge of Sutton, near Dover, to wh. and his br. Jervase P. citizen and cordwainer of Lond. as trust. he made convey. of est. in Co. Kent, as jointure of his w. if she outliv. him. This instr. with a bond in the penal sum of £200 to secure, &c. are rec. in Vol. III. of our Suf'k. Reg. of Deeds; but it is curious, that these docum. were not rec. here bef. Jan. 1661, some yrs. aft. a. of the Rev. Ralph, wh. in his will notices Robert and John, s. of his d. Mary M. JOHN, Providence 1639. JOHN, Boston, came, perhaps, in the Hopewell, capt. Babb, from London 1635, aged 14, by w. Sarah had John, b. 10 Dec. 1645; Thomas, 11 May 1656; Benjamin, 15 Feb. 1661; and Christopher, 18 Aug. 1664. JOHN, Billerica 1659, freem. 1683, had John, wh. was prob. the freem. at Billerica 1690. JOHN, Boston, a mariner from Barnstaple, Co. Devon, d. 1662; and his br. Thomas of Alwington, in Devon, took admin. of his est. in Eng. and in 1670, claim. and obt. the assets from John Sweete, who was admor. here. JOHN, Boston, call. Òa Scottishman,Ó by w. Ruth had James, b. 29 Sept. 1659; Mary, b. 2 Jan. 1661; John, 2 Oct. 1664 (who was a mason of Braintree, kept that valua. Diary, formerly quoted oft. by Dr. T. M. Harris, [[157]] who procured it for the Hist. Soc. as Fairfield's); Thomas, 6 Feb. 1666; Samuel, 14 July 1669; and Joseph, 14 Apr. 1672; was prob. the freem. of 1671, and d. Nov. 1672. His wid. Ruth m. Daniel Fairfield. JOHN, Braintree, s. of the preced. m. 12 May 1690, Mary, wid. of Jonathan Mills, d. of Edmund Sheffield, had Deborah. In the Diary, sub. 25 Dec. 1700, John writes "br. Thomas came to Boston to visit, aft. being abs. 17 yrs. and 1/2, tarried three wks. and ret." Whence he came for this visit to his nat. town, must be inq. but can hard. be answ. JOHN, Greenwich 1672. JOHN, Boston 1681-4, had an office under the Col. governm. with salary of £13. a yr. may have been freem. 1690, and d. 1694. JOHN, Windsor, youngest s. of capt. Samuel, by w. Abigail, wh. d. 29 Feb. 1698, had Abigail, b. 10 Dec. 1693, wh. d. in few wks.; and Hannah, 16 Apr. 1695. NOAH, Northampton, d. 15 Dec. 1691. PETER, Newbury, with prefix of respect, by w. Abigail had Thomas, b. 1 July 1689; and Ruth, 31 Dec. 1690; perhaps rem. to Boston. RICHARD, Taunton, m. 11 Feb. 1676, Esther Bell. ROBERT, Salem 1637, perhaps soon rem. to New Hampsh. as one of the name d. there in 1663. ROBERT, Plymouth, s. of John, gr.s. of Rev. Ralph Partridge, m. 1659, Mary, d. of John Barnes, had John; Robert, b. 15 Aug. 1663; and, perhaps, more. ROBERT, Boston 1668, merch. may be the same as the preced. or not. SAMUEL, Windsor, s. of Thomas the shoemaker of Boston, b. in Eng. was a tanner, by Stiles, in Hist. 692, made to own lot a dozen yrs. too early, and rep. in 1637, magistr. in 1638, when he never gain. either of those honors. Thomas was mistak. for this Samuel, wh. m. 6 May 1652, Mary, only ch. of David Wilton, not Wilson, as Geneal. Reg. V. 229 prints the name, had Samuel, b. 27 May 1653; Lydia, 13 Feb. 1656; Thomas, 23 Apr. 1659, d. soon; David, 24 July 1661; Thomas, again, 18 Feb. 1664; Mary, 8 May 1667, a. at nine yrs.; Eliakim, 10 July 1669; John, 10 Apr. 1672; and Elizabeth 27 Sept. 1674. He was freem. 1654, and in the war against Philip had short but most honor. serv. On 30 Nov. he was made a capt. in place of Benjamin Newbury, who was disabled, for the project. winter campaign, and on 19 Dec. 1675, in the great swamp fight, the hardest ever kn. in N. E. he was k. with many of the men under him His wid. d. 25 Aug. 1683. Lydia m. 24 Sept. 1676, Joseph Hawley of Northampton, where the oldest s. liv. while the others cont. at W. SAMUEL, Barnstable, by w. Sarah had Sarah, wh. d. 2 Aug. 1690, and f. and mo. had d. the mo. preced. SAMUEL, Charlestown, freem. 1690, says the rec. but Budington has not giv. his name among ch. memb. SAMUEL, Northampton, oldest s. of the brave capt. Samuel, m. 1675, Rebecca, d. of capt. Benjamin Newbury of Windsor, had Mary, b. 1676, d. soon; Samuel, 1679; Abigail, 1682; Sarah, 1685; Preserved, 1691; [[158]] Lydia; and Mercy; was freem. 1690. SAMUEL, Boston 1681 had w. Ruth, freem. 1691. THOMAS, Dorchester 1634, freem. 6 May 1635, rem. it is thot. to Windsor; was rep. in Mar. and Apr. 1638; but no more is kn. with certainty. In Stiles, Hist. 698, he is said to m. 2 Mar. 1637, Mary Drake, wh. may have been d. of the first John; and we might suppose, from the same line, the same man m. 10 May 1660, Bethia Parsons, but the darkness is palpable, upon the same page, where he teach. that Thomas Maskell m. that day that same woman; and great distrust springs up, when we see him, p. 735, give the same woman, the same day, to Thomas Haskell. THOMAS, Boston, shoemaker, or ferryman, or both, call. widower on adm. to the ch. 31 Aug. 1634; freem. 4 Mar. 1635, had brot. from Eng. prob. s. Thomas and Samuel, ds. Sarah and Frances; and here by sec. w. Alice had Eliakim, b. 1 Mar. 1637, yet not bapt. until 15 Apr. 1638, no doubt on acco. of the antinom. quarrel in the ch. for acting with the major part of wh. in support of Wheelwright, he was requir. in Nov. 1637 to surrender his arms; but like most of the rest, thus abused, regain. high esteem, was selectman 1647-58, deac. and rep. 1650, and d. perhaps 1663. Frances m. 16 July 1652, Joseph Howe; and Sarah m. James Penniman. Great indulgence must be granted to investigat. a. this name, for ano. THOMAS, Boston 1643, a tailor, adm. of the ch. 17 Feb. 1644, had Thomas, bapt. 7 Jan. 1644, 5 days old; freem. in May of same yr. prob. and in June foll. was excom. I think he went to New Haven, aft. recov. in 1646, the favor of his former fellow-worshippers. THOMAS, Reading, came, prob. in the James from London 1635, aged 22, had Hannah, b. 7 June 1640; Samuel, 1 Sept. 1643, d. in one wk.; Abigail; Sarah, d. young; Thomas and Rebecca, tw. 20 Feb. 1648; Elizabeth; Sarah, again, 14 Feb. 1655; was freem. 1653, a lieut. and aft. very long deliberat. by me, is thot. to be that man of Lynn, always call. capt. who there had Joanna, 14 Sept. 1657; John, 14 Feb. 1660; Ruth, 14 Aug. 1662; and Mary, 25 May 1665; was of ar. co. 1640, and, perhaps, freem. 4 June 1641; certain. rep. 1659, 60, 3, 4, 7, and 8; d. 23 Dec. 1689; and his wid. Rebecca d. Aug. 1693. Hannah m. at Lynn, 17 June 1659, John Lewis; Sarah m. 15 July 1674, Ebenezer Stocker; and Mary m. 7 Apr. 1685, Edward Baker. Lewis seems to me, to have confus. f. and s. and to have misled Farmer. See p. 92 of Lewis, Ed. 2d. But for what John Dunton, in Life and Errors, says of this capt. hav. been one of Cromwell's soldiers, I am compell. to suspect, that the author mistook his jolly host, or that the veteran designedly impos. on him. THOMAS, Salem 1657. THOMAS, Middletown 1669, then offered as freem. may have had Thomas, Joel, and Mary, wh. m. 27 July 1665, John Cutlin, but it is not certain. THOMAS, d. at Northampton, [[159]] 3 June 1663, but we are sure he was only a casual visitor. THOMAS, Andover, ought to have more told of him than is found in Farmer, that he d. Jan. 1708, almost 100 yrs. old, and that Joanna d. there in May foll. aged a 100. Perhaps it was his d. Mary wh. m. 6 July 1659, Robert Russell. THOMAS, Charlestown 1684, who gains this place, as does he of Salem 1637, on authority of Barry. THOMAS, Hartford, had sis. Mary, wh. m. John Catlin, but who was their f. is not ascert. He had Mary, b. 10 May 1670; John, 24 Feb. 1672; William, 21 Apr. 1674; Thomas, 3 Oct. 1676; Elizabeth 23 Oct. 1678; Sarah, 27 Mar. 1681; and Benjamin, 22 Feb. 1684; and d. 1692. His s. Thomas, a mariner, m. aft. the date of his will, 15 Feb. 1697, Mary Chantrel of Boston, spinster, and she had it pro. 19 Sept. 1700, as his wid. in wh. he gave memo. to his sis. Elizabeth spinster, and bro. Benjamin, and uncle John Catlin, all of Hartford, as he also styles hims. but all resid. to his beloved fr. M. C. THOMAS, Windsor, s. of capt. Samuel, m. 3 Mar. 1686, Mary Drake, d. prob. of John of the same, had Thomas, b. 14 Jan. 1687, d. young; Mary, 21 Feb. 1689; Samuel, 23 July 1691; Thomas, 6 Feb. 169-4; Rachel, 12 Apr. 1696; Catharine, 11 Apr. 1699; John, 3 Apr. 1701; Noah, 24 Apr. 1703, d. young; Daniel, 1705; Benjamin, 8 Aug. 1707, d. in few mos.; and Eunice, 3 May 1709. WILLIAM, Salem 1638, had then, says Felt, gr. of ld. He prob. came in the Abigail, 1636, from London, aged 40. WILLIAM, Charlestown, m. 8 Apr. 1666, Mary. d. of William Hilton, wh. d. 13 July 1678, aged a. 33, had William, and Mary, bapt. 4 Feb. 1672, she hav. join. the ch. a few days bef.; John, 20 Apr. 1673; Edward, 16 Apr. 1676; and; by sec. w. Lydia had Samuel, bapt. 31 Aug. 1684; Hannah, 25 Sept. 1687. Twelve of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at N. E. coll. half of them at Harv. three at Yale, and two at Dart. MARSHCROFT, MASHCROFT, or MASCROFT, DANIEL, Roxbury, m. 23 May 1665, Mary, d. of John Gorton, prob. liv. in some other place, there had Elizabeth until d. of the f. of his u. aft. wh. I find in the rec. of R. Hannah, b. 6 May 1677; but perhaps he rem. again to some neighb. town, and had Samuel, brot. to bapt. with Mehitable, 3 Feb. 1684, when we see in rec. of b. only that of the d. 28 Feb. bef. He had also Mary, whose b. is not kn. but she d. 8 June 1688; and he d. perhaps bef. mid. age, and his w;a. d. 30 June 1703. Elizabeth m. at R. 18 Mar. 1700, Samuel Spencer; and Hannah m. 16 July 1701, Samuel Frost. But both the hs. were, I suppose, of ano. town. MARSHFIELD, JOSIAH, Springfield, s. of Samuel, m. 22 Sept. 1686, Rachel, d. of Jonathan Gilbert, had six ch. b. at S. was freem. 1690, and aft. 1700 rem. to Hartford, there had a 8. b. 17 Mar. 1704. SAMUEL, Springfield, s. of Thomas, b. in Eng. m. 18 Feb. 1652, Esther, d. [[160]] of deac. Samuel Wright, had Mercy, b. 10 June 1653; Thomas, 6 Sept. 1654, both of wh. d. young; Sarah, 2 Feb. 1656; Samuel, 1659, a. young; Hannah, 1661; and Abilene, 2 Apr. 1664. His w. d. next day, and he m. 28 Dec. 1664, Catharine, wid. of Thomas Gilbert, d. of Samuel Chapin, and had been wid. first of Nathaniel Bliss, had Josiah, 29 Sept. 1665; Esther, 6 Sept. 1667; and Margaret, 3 Dec. 1670; was a propr. of Westfield 1666, but never liv. there; rep. 1680, 3, and 4, sheriff of the Co. and d. 8 May 1692. Sarah m. 1676, William Holton, jr.; Hannah m. Joseph Bedurtha; Abilene m. Thomas Gilbert; Esther m. Ephraim Colton; and Margaret m. Ebenezer Parsons. THOMAS, Windsor, may be thot. to have rem. with Warham, from Dorchester, but no certainty is reach. by inquir. unless the conject. be adopt. that he and first Thomas Marshall were the same person. The first that can positive. be learn. is by a letter from him, as Marshfield, to Samuel Wakeman, 6 May 1641, on p. 12 of our Vol. I. of Reg. of Deeds, strange as the place is, where an extr. is insert. by Gov. Winthrop and next yr. he withdrew from the country, as by Conn. Rec. 14 Oct. 1642, when the Court appoint. trustees to manage his est. for use of the creditors. Perhaps he was lost at sea, but at least no more was ever heard of him. His wid. and fam. rem. to Springfield, the ch. being Samuel, bef. ment.; Sarah, wh. m. Thomas Miller, and ano. d. MARSTON, BENJAMIN, Salem, s. of John, m. 25 Nov. 1678, Abigail, d. prob. of Hilliard Verin, had Abigail, b. 28 Aug. foll. rep. 1696, was, I presume, f. of Benjamin, H. C. 1689, a man of distinct. EPHRAIM, Salem, s. of John, by w. Elizabeth had Ephraim, b. 24 May 1673; and Samuel, 2 Nov. 1676. EPHRAIM, Hampton, s. of Thomas, m. 19 Feb. 1678, Abigail, d. of John Sanborn, took o. of alleg. 1678, as also did, in the same town, the same yr. ISAAC, JAMES, and WILLIAM, who, perhaps, were his brs. or cous. of wh. ISAAC m. 23 Dec. 1669, Elizabeth d. of John Brown, had Caleb, b. 19 July 1672; Abigail, 25 Dec. 1673, d. in six mos.; Elizabeth 30 Apr. 1675; Mary, 18 Apr. 1677; Sarah, 6 Nov. 1680; Abigail, again, 7 May 1682; and Bethia, 6 July 1687. JACOB, Andover, m. 7 Apr. 1686, Elizabeth Poor, had Jacob, wh. d. 31 Mar. 1688; and John, wh. d. 20 Nov. 1700. Prob. Mary, wh. m. 1 Dec. 1680, Stephen Parker, was his sis. and possib. Hannah, wh. m. 2 Jan. 1689, Benjamin Barker; and Sarah, wh. m. 24 May 1692, James Bridges, all at Andover, may have been. JAMES, Hampton, s. prob. of Thomas, by w. Dinah Sanborn had Abigail, b. 17 Mar. 1679, wh. m. 5 Aug. 1701, John Prescott of H. and d. 14 Nov. 1762; and Ann, 16 Feb. 1681, wh. m. 30 Dec. 1702, Nathaniel Prescott, and d. 30 Dec. 1761. JOHN, Salem, came 1637, aged 20, as serv. of wid. Mary Moulton, from Ormsby, Co. Norf'k. was a carpenter, freem. 2 June 1641, had bapt.

His w. was Alice. He d. 19 Dec. 1681, aged 66, says the gr.stone. JOHN, Barnstable, m. 1 July 1657, Martha, d. of Bernard Lombard, had John, b. a. 15 June 1658; and George, a. 4 Oct. 1660; rem. to Swansey, there, by w. Joan, had Melatiab, 31 Aug. 1673. JOHN, Andover 1667, perhaps was f. of Jacob, and Mary, Hannah, and Sarah, above ment. and of John; but means of certainty are beyond our reach, and all we know is that he had w. Martha, was freem. 1691, and that his d. Sarah m. 24 May 1692, James Bridges of A. JOHN, Salem, prob. s. of the first John, m. 5 Sept. 1664, Mary Chichester, perhaps d. of William, wh. d. 25 May 1686, aged 43, by the inscript. on the gr.stone; was freem. 1671; had John, b. 26 July, 1666, d. soon; John, again, 2 Sept. 1667; Mary, 14 Jan. 1670; James, 28 Nov. 1672; Sarah, 8 Oct. 1675; and Margaret, 25 Dec. 1677. JOHN, Andover, prob. s. of John of the same, m. 28 May 1689, Mary Osgood, d. of Christopher, had John, wh. d. 25 Jan. 1694; John, again, 13 May 1699; and, perhaps, others. His w. d. 5 Apr. 1700, hav. suffer. in the delus. of 1692, imprisonm. as a witch. MANASSEH, Salem, br. of Benjamin, was a blacksmith; freem. 1677; capt. rep. 1691, d. 1705, he m. 23 Aug. 1667, Mercy Pierce, had Mercy, b. 23 June 1669, d. soon; Benjamin, 30 July 1670; Samuel, 20 Dec. 1674, d. soon; Samuel, again, 17 Mar. 1676, d. soon; Mercy, again, 7 Aug. 1677; Mehitable, 14 May 1682; Lydia, 7 Jan. 1684; and Susanna, 29 Apr. 1687.

Atwell, perhaps was of Scarborough, freem. 1668, d. early in 1673, his will of 11 Jan. being pro. in Apr. of that yr. In it he teaches us that he had w. Dorothy, s.-in-law Robert Corbin and his w.

Elizabeth d. 7 Jan. 1726, aged 84, say the gr.stones; but he had prob. not liv. there most of his days, for the list of householders in 1678, Frothingham, 183, tho. it gives the prefix of respect, tells not tbe bapt. name, but indicates barely Mr. Martin's, and there is reason to think it did not mean either John's or Thomas's, and Coffin authorizes the conject. that he was of Newbury, had Richard, b. 8 Jan. 1674. A former w. Elizabeth d. 6 Oct. 1689; and the sec. m. 28 Nov. foll. was wid. of Joshua Edmonds.

Fifteen of this name, says [[164]] Farmer, US. had, in 1834, been gr. at the coll. of N.

Of this man, Benedict, in Hist.

He had, perhaps, s. Samuel, inhab. of Rehoboth many yrs. later, and others, as Sampson, Joseph, and Noah.

STEPHEN, one of the first couns. nam. in the new chart. wh. William and Mary allow. Increase Mather to fill, was a merch. of London, prompt in friendship for us, tho. he never came to N. E. yet Hutch. II. 15, supposes him "from mere respect and gratitude" to be insert. At the first elect. our people were not prevented by respect and gratitude from leav. him out, as they did sev. others of the creatures of Mather. One Stephen, however, is put into Whitman's list of ar. co. 1686, but I doubt the correctn. THOMAS, Watertown 1637, perhaps rem. to Hartford bef. 1651, and thence in 1656 to Northampton, had w.

Medfield, and was k. by the Ind. 21 Feb. 1676. His ho. was burn. I presume, at the same time. Sev. of his descend. have been gr. at Harv. and the number at all the N. E. coll. 1884, was twenty-seven, fourteen of wh. at H. C. among them Thaddeus, 1728, d; in 92d yr. 1 May 1806. MASSEY, JEFFREY, Salem, one of the first mem. of the ch. there, freem. 14 May 1634, was clk. of the market 1642, d. 9 or 25 Nov. 1676, aged a. 84; had John, b. 1631, wh. by Dr. Bentley was call. the first b. male of the town; but Felt differs from that judgment, tho. the cradle in wh. he was rocked was long admired, and perhaps acknowl. as proof.

MASTERS, ABRAHAM, Cambridge 1639, prob. s. of John, but may have been gr.s. GILES, Boston, d. 29 Feb. 1688. He prob. had liv. here but very short day, and with no sympathy towards our people, as in Sewall's Diary he is describ. merely as "the king's attorney." JOHN, Cambridge, perhaps came in the fleet with Winthrop freem. 18 May 1631, with prefix of respect, a man of skill and enterprise, d. 21 Dec. 1639, and Jane, his w. d. five days aft. His will, made two days only bef. he d. abstmct. in Geneal. Reg. II. 180, names d. Sarah Dobyson, or Dobson but we kn. nothing of her or her h.; d. Lydia Tabor, perhaps [[171]] w. of Philip; gr.ch.

JOHN, Salem, m. 17 July 1678, Elizabeth Ormes, had John, b. 24 Sept. 1681, wh. d. with his mo. in Sept. of next yr. and by w. Dores he had Elizabeth last of July 1684; John, again, 15 Feb. 1687; Jonathan, 10 Nov. 1689; and Samuel, 1 Oct. 1693. NATHANIEL, Beverly 1659, wh m. Ruth, d. of John Pickworth, seems to be s. of Abraham, and gr.s. of the preced. one of this fam. was of Cambridge, when the Shawshin div. of ld. was made in 1652. MASTERSON, NATHANIEL, York, s. of Richard, had liv. early at Salem, at Boston 1660, and at sev. other places, with Rev. Ralph Smith, his f.-in-law, was marshal or sheriff in 1665, imprison. by the royal commiss. for upholding the right of Mass. and restored to his office by Leverett and the other agents of Mass. 1668, when the people return. to alleg. under our Col. Hubbard, 593. RICHARD, Plymouth 1630, came prob. the yr. preced. a deac. of the "goodly company of the Pilgrims at Leyden" bef. the d. of Rev. John Robinson, 1625, chos. prob. 1620, when Gov. Carver, Elder Brewster, and Samuel Fuller, wh. had, I suppose, all been predeces. in that office, emb. for N. E. in the Mayflower. He brot. w. Mary, nam. Goodall, of Leicester, in the docum. at Leyden, as m. 26 Nov. 1619; ch. Nathaniel, bef. ment. and Sarah, wh. m. John Wood, or Atwood. The wid. m. Rev. Ralph Smith. It has been doubted, whether the deac. ever came to this country, but the doubt relies, I suppose, mainly on tbe negative fact of ment. of him being hardly found, and yet we kn. from Bradford, that he d. at P. in the gr. sickness 1633. In 1649, Mary Smith, their mo. gave to Nathaniel M. and his sis. Sarah, w. of Atwood, her right in "a ho. in Leyden, in Holland, sometime appertain. to my dec. h. Richard Masterson." MATHER, ATHERTON, Dorchester, s. of Timothy, rem. to Windsor, m. 20 Sept. 1694, Rebecca, d. of Thomas Stoughton, and by her William, b. 2 Mar. 1698; and Jerusha, 18 July 1700; his w. d. and by sec. w.

COTTON, Boston, eldest s. of Increase, freem. 1680, when he was only 17 yrs. old, so that he came forward with strange rapidity (hav. join. the ch. of his f. 31 Aug. 1679), wh. is the more striking, as his f. was never adm. freem. that we find; and if his course at coll. were full one, he must have ent. at 11 1/2 yrs. more than two or three have been min. in Boston younger than he; but with less sagacity than his f. he was ord. at 2d ch. collea with him 13 May 1685; disting. as a scholar above most of his contemp. but kn. in mod. days chiefly as author of the Magn. in seven books, London 1702, a work of no little value, and more curious than valuable, d. 13 Feb. 1728. He m. 4 May 1686, Abigail, d. of John Phillips of Charlestown, [[172]] wh. d. 28 Nov. or as town rec. says, 1 Dec. 1702, hav. borne to him nine ch. of wh. five d. young, three bef. bapt. and he m. 18 Aug. 1703, Elizabeth d. of Dr. John Clark, wid. of Richard Hubbard, mariner, with a good est. had six more ch. of wh.

"I have no doubt foolishly eno. been ready to fall into this weakness." Hardly any more curious letter can be found in the Geneal. Reg. See V. 60. In less than a yr. aft. his m. with this d. of Lee, her sis. Catharine, by sudden death of her h. Henry Howell, was left with two ch. of two and three yrs. of age, to wh. in evil hour, M. was appoint. guardian, and suffer. much anxiety in conseq. See 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. II. 122. Twelve of his ch. with dates of bapt. and names, are in the appendix to Rev. Chandler Robbins's Hist. of the 2d ch. but six of them are by tbe sec. w. In the pious labor of his s. Rev. Samuel, on the biography of his f. he is more copious than exact. The most agreeable of all tbe copious writings of Mather, will, perhaps, be found in some apologues design. to magnify the merits of his f. in obtain. the new chart. for wh. however, little favor was found in the mind of Calef. They may be seen in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 126, 133. But his epistolary exercises are most frequent. refer. to, and they are very num. As the sample of big style, and also highly illustrat. the politics of the day, that his f. was too much engag. in for the larger part of his life, the reader will glad. turn to the letters in 1 Mass.

[[173]] and on 8 Sept. utter. his first sermon on our side of the water in that ch. where he serv. above 60 yrs. tho. he was not ord. until 27 May 1664. He was chos. Presid. of the coll. 1685, and fill. the office until 1701, when the increase of dissatisfact. long prevail. at his refusal to give up his pulpit in Boston, and reside at Cambridge, compell. his resigna. Next yr. he fear. the glory of N. E. was depart. and that the coll. under direct. of Willard of the O. S. ch. should "become a nursery, not of plants of renown, but of degenerate plants, who will forsake those holy principles of truth," &c. &c. But his talents had new scope in the intermed. time, for in the last dangerous yr. of Sir Edmund Andros, he was sent in disguise, on board a ship, to intercede with king; James, and sail. 7 Apr. 1688, being absent from his coll. duties, on political engagem. until 14 May 1692, when Sir William Phips the Gov. of his own nominat. land. with him, bring. the new chart. of William and Mary. Unhappi. the desire to manage state affairs ever aft. possessed him, and lessen. his usefulness, beside embitter. his life. He d. 23 Aug. 1723, and was bur. 29, with the greatest marks of esteem and affection. He m. 6 Mar. 1662, Mary, sometimes spell. Maria, d. of famous John Cotton, wh. d. 4 Apr. 1714; had Cotton, H.

JOSEPH, Dorchester, s. of Timothy, m. 2 or or 20 June 1689, Sarah Clap, had Catharine, b. a. 1690, and he d. a. 1691.

RICHARD, Dorchester, s. of Thomas, b. 1596, of an ancient fam. as his gr.s. Cotton in Magn. III. c. 20, assures us, at Lowton, in the parish of Winwick, Lancash. was employ. in teach. a sch. some yrs. bef. going to the Univ. but at length, on 9 May 1618, was ent. of Brazen Nose Coll.

He was a man of excel. discretion, of less learning, it is prob. than his ambitious s. Increase, and less brilliancy, it is clear, than his eccentr. gr.s. the never dying author of Magnalia, but in true serv. as min. happier than either, and better than both. He was sett. at D. 23 Aug. 1636; his w. d. 1655, and he m. 26 Aug. 1656, Sarah, wid. of his great friend John Cotton, and d. 22 Apr. 1669. A few days bef. he had met a great indignity, in being refus. adm. with sundry others, sent by an ecclesiast. council, met at Boston, to attempt conciliat. in the first ch. there, as John Hull, one of the aggriev. mem. relates in his Diary, p. 229 of the Vol. pub. by the Antiq. Soc of Worcester. The wid. made her will 3 May 1670, but did not d. for six yrs. His life, written by Increase, print. 1670, is condensed in the Magn. the author of wh. could never be scrupulous in use of materials; and of course he shows that he had not resort. to the MS. of the journal of his gr.f. Yet the slight extracts from tbe interesting work, caused a desire for the orig. wh. in Young's Chron. was print. from the autogr. 210 yrs. aft. its date. RICHARD, Dorchester, s. of Timothy, m. 1 July 1680, [[175]] Catharine, d. of Joseph Wise of Roxbury, had Timothy, b. 20 Mar. 1681; Elizabeth 20 Nov. 1682; Samuel, 23 Jan. 1684; and Joseph, 29 Jan. 1686.

Catharine, d. of Humphrey Atherton, had Samuel, b. 6, bapt. 7 Sept. 1651, H. C. 1671, bef. ment.; Nathaniel, bapt. 30 Jan. 1653, prob. d. very soon, wh. may explain the fail. of entry of b.; Richard, 22, bapt. 25 Dec. 1653, bef. ment.

III. 280); Catharine, 6, bapt. 13 Jan. 1656; Nathaniel, again, 2, bapt. 5 Sept. 1658; Joseph, 25, bapt. 26 May 1661; and Atherton, 4 Oct. 1663, bef. ment.; and he d. 14 Jan. 1686, by falling from a scaffold in his barn, says Blake's Ann. His wid. Elizabeth wh. he had m. 20 Mar. 1680, d. 20 Feb. 1710, aged 70 yrs. Of the eleven male descend. of famous Richard, bred at Harv. as above enum. ten were of the seventeenth cent. and the other had his A. B. a hundred and thirty yrs. since. From 1705 to 1837 eighteen have been gr. at Yale.

JOHN, Simsbury 1690, a gr.s. of first Thomas, had serv. his apprent. at Windsor, m. Mary, d. of Edward Adams. THOMAS, Boston 1630, gunsmith, came prob. in the fleet with Winthrop as among tbe early mem. of the ch. he is ent. as rec. br commun. of ch. from a ch. in London, tho. at a later day, 17 July 1636, he was fully rec. yet had been adm. freem. 4 Mar. 1634; by w. Ann, wh. was sis. of Abigail, the first w. of Theodore Atkinson, had Thomas, bapt. 27 Oct. 1633; John, 10 July 1636; rem. to Braintree, hav. been disarm. as one of the [[176]] recusant friends of Wheelwright, in Nov. 1637, there had Joshua, 23 July 1640; and Abigail, perhaps eldest of all; was a milit. officer aft. the relig. heats were assuaged; d. aft. 1666. THOMAS, Boston, s. of the preced. m. 14 Aug. 1660, wid. Mary Read, had Thomas and Hannah, was freem. 1666, then titled jun. prison-keep. 1674, for sev. yrs.; d. 1690. By deeds of Theodore Atkinson, first of the name, in Apr. 1675, Thomas jr. John, Joshua, and Abigail, ch. of his w.'s sis. and Thomas and Hannah, ch. of that Thomas jr. and Ann, John, and Mary, ch. of John the sec. s. of first Thomas, are indicat. for us. MATTHEWS, BENJAMIN, Dover 1659, was s. of Francis, and had s. Francis. CALEB, New Haven, s. of William, m. 13 Jan. 1702, Elizabeth Hotchkiss, d. perhaps of Daniel. DANIEL, Boston, mariner, m.

FRANCIS, Portsmouth 1631, of the men sent over by Mason, was of Exeter 1639 to 46, rem. to Dover, prob. d. 1647, when, perhaps, his wid. Thomasine (with childr. Benjamin, Walter, and Martha, wh. m. first a Snell, and next, a Browne), was on the est. he purchas. 1640 of William Beard. Descend. wh. write the name Mathes are nam. and respect.

JAMES, Charlestown 1634, prob. rem. bef. 1639 to Yarmouth, where he had Samuel, b. 1 May 1647; Sarah, 21 July 1649; Esther, 8 Jan. 1651; perhaps more ds. but certain. six more s. of wh. only John and Benjamin are nam. to me, the latter being youngest s. and progenit. of all wh. remain on the Cape, as Otis instr. us; was rep. 1664. Prob. his w. was Sarah, d. of William Hedge; and his d. Esther m. 10 June 1695, Daniel Willard, both parties hav. past mid. age. JOHN, Roxbury, had Gershom, b. 25 July 1641, perhaps bapt. but the rec. of ch. prior to Dec. is lost; and Elizabeth 14, bapt. 22 Oct. 1643. Ellis, in his Hist. 123, follow. the erron. suppos. of Farmer, a. his rem. to Springfield, and adds that he was excomm. for drunken. Now that censure was on 1 May 1659, many yrs. later than his namesake was at S. but then he ought to have turned over the ch. vol. very little, and seen that he was restor. to his honora. relation 29 Dec. 1660. He was freem. 18 May 1642, when the Col. rec. spells it Mathis. JOHN, Rehoboth, perhaps rem. to Springfield, m. 1644, Pentecost Bond, had two ch. wh. d. one Sarah, bur. 7 Jan. 1650, and the w. was k. by the Ind. 5 Oct. 1675. He was fined two or three times for drunken. but that frailty would not fully prove his ident. with the preced. He m. sec. w. and had s. wh. d. young, and he d. 25 Apr. 1684. JOHN, Boston 1645, a tailor. JOHN, Charlestown, m. 7 Jan. 1609, Margaret Hunt, and he d. 28 June foll. JOHN, Yarmouth, s. of James, by w.

MARMADUKE, Malden, was s. of Matthew of Swansea, in Glamorgansh. and in his 18th yr. matric. 20 Feb. 1624. at [[177]] All Souls, Oxf. came to Boston, in a sh. from Barnstable, 21 Sept. 1638, and his w.

He preach. at Yarmouth 1639 to 43, for in Aug. of this latter yr. his w. was dism. from our ch. to that of Y.; was adm. freem. of Plymouth Col. 1641, had Manasseh, bapt. 24Jan. 1641, by Lothrop, at Barnstable, but came to Hull a. 1644; some yrs. later taught at Malden, where his troubles are copious. detail. by Frothingham, in Hist. of Charlestown; he had there been ord. but, against the good will of the hearers, he was forced to depart, was then employ. at Lynn and other places, finally went home, and Calamy says he d. at his nat. place, a. 1683. MORDECAI, H. C. 1655, was, I presume, s. of the preced. and, as no more is heard of him, prob. he went to Eng. ROGER, Dorchester, had gr. of ld. Feb. 163O, but prob. soon rem. SAMUEL, Jamaica, L.

His will of 15 Apr. was pro. 23 June, as Mr. Quint finds. WILLIAM, Branford, had Elizabeth b. 27 Dec. 1672; Caleb; Thomas; and William; and his will, of 14 Apr. 1684, ment. ano. ch. MATTHEWSON, JAMES, is by Farmer, put into the list of earliest sett. of R. I. but I have found nothing to add, exc. that at Providence he took the engagem. of alleg. to Charles Il. in May 1666, and prob. had Ruth, wh. m. 1 Apr. 1686, Benjamin Whipple. JOSEPH, wh. m. 19 Feb. 1715, Sarah, d. of the sec. Valentine Whitman, is call. s. of Daniel. Yet wh. Daniel was, or where he liv. I find not. MATTOCKS, DAVID, Braintree, freem. 1630, had w. Sarah, and d. Elizabeth wh. was decrepid, one s. and d. at Roxbury bef. 14 May 1654, when his inv. was dated, and his d. d. 4 July 1655. The wid. m. 2 May 1656, Thomas Rawlins of Boston. JAMES, Boston, a cooper, came from Bristol, perhaps bef. 1633 (at least his d. Alice was then w. of Nathaniel Bishop), join. the ch. in Feb. 1639, and was made freem. 13 Mar. foll. Perhaps all his ch. were b. in Eng. In his will, made 21 Jan. 1667, wh. is on the latest page in Vol. I. of Suffk. Reg. he names s. Samuel, and ds. Alice, w. of John Lewis, wh. had been wid. of Nathaniel Bishop, and Mary, w. of Samuel Brown, m. 9 July 1 661. RICHARD, New Haven, m. 2 Mar. 1669, Grace Todd, but it is not certain that he was resid. long. He had desert. his w. bef. 1686, when her f. d. SAMUEL, Boston, s. of James, m. 30 Mar. 1653, Constance, d. of Richard Fairbanks, had Samuel, b. 15 Oct. 1659; James, 27 Oct. 1662; Constance, 10 Sept. 1665; Zaccheus, 15 Sept. 1668; John, 14 Sept. 1669; Elizabeth 18 Aug. 1670; Mehitable, 7 Nov. 1672; and Mary, 13 Nor. 1673. Maddox is very easily confound. with this name, as well as Maddock, and I dare not, in some cases, disting. MATTOON, HUBERTUS, or HERBERT, Kittery 1652, when he submit. to jurisdict. of Mass. prob. rem. to Saco bef. 1683. Folsom, 174. [[178]] PHILIP, a soldier from the E. part of the Col. in the spring of 1676, was in Turners comp. and took part in the Falls fight, then sett. at Springfield, m. Sarah, d. of John Hawkes of Hadley, had Margaret, b. 1678; Philip, 1680; John, 1682; Isaac, 1684; Sarah, 1687; rem. to Deerfie}d, there had Eleazer, 1689; Gershom, 1690; Nathaniel, 1693; Ebenezer, 1695; and Mary, posthum. 1697. He d. 30 Dec. 1696, and his wid. m. Daniel Belden, as third w. and d. 17 Dec. 17O1, in 95th yr. Of his s. Philip, with w.

MAUDE, DANIEL, Boston, came in the James, from Bristol, 1635, in comp. with Richard Mather, was bred at Emanuel, Cambr. where he had his A. B. 1606, and A. M. 1610, kept the sch. for some yrs. join to our ch. 25 Oct. 163O, freem. 25 May foll. yet without prefix of respect; for sec. w. m. Mary Bonner, a wid. with four ch. went to Dover, there was first min. on sett. found. 1642 to his d. in 1655. His will was of 17 Jan. in that yr. He left no ch. by either of his ws. MAUDSLEY, HENRY, Braintree, came in the Hopewell, capt. Babb, in the autumn of 1635, aged 24, had Mary, b. 29 Sept. 1638; Samuel, 14 June 1641; and, perhaps, otbers; ar. co. 1643; freem. 1646; we kn. not the name of his w. nor any more item. Dr. Harris claims him for Dorchester 1630, but without suffic. warrant, that I can discov. yet he had gr. of a houselot 1637. JOHN, Dorchester, freem. 14 Mar. 1639, by w. Elizabeth had Joseph, b. 1638, as print. in Geneal. Reg. V. 244, tho. I think the s. call. Joseph in the rec. may have been John; and whether any more, or when that w. d. is unkn.; d. 1661, bef. 4 Oct. the date of his inv. but by w. Cicely's will of 28 Nov. foll. are nam. s. John, d. Elizabeth and s. Thomas. This Cicely, wh. may seem to be the same as w. Elizabeth d. 3 Dec 1661. JOHN, Windsor, s. of the preced. m. 10 or 14 Dec. 1664, Mary, d. of Benjamin Newbury, had Benjamin, b. 13 Oct. 1666; Margaret, 4 Feb. 1668, d. young,; Joseph, 21 Dec. 1670; Mary, 3 May 1673; and Consider, 21 Nov. 1675; was freem. 1666, lieut. in Philip's war, rem. to Westfield 1677, bec. freem. of Mass. May 1678, there had John, 21 Aug. 1678, d. at 12 yra; Comfort. 8 Dec. 1680; Margaret, again, 22 May 1683; Elizabeth 17 Nov. 1685; Hannah, 3 Apr. 1690, wh. d. 1708; and he went back to Windsor, there d. 18 Aug. 1690. All the five s. were liv. 1706; but Comfort d. 1711. Benjamin, [[179]] Joseph, Consider, and John ea. had fam. at Westfield, but in 1719, a few yrs. bef. his d. Joseph rem. to Glastonbury. RICHARD, Boston, perhaps br. perhaps s. of Henry, m. Mary, d. of Simon Eyre the first, had only Martha, wh. it is said, m. John Ruggle, but wh. of the sev. bear. that name, or when the f. of this w. or her h. was b. is almost beyond guess. SAMUEL, Dorchester, s. of Henry, a cooper, rem. early to Boston, and in the way of trade visit. Jamaica and other parts of the W. I. where the adventurous spirit was excited and schooled, perhaps by Sir Henry Morgan and associate buccaneers, the result of wh. was, his bring. home to Boston two prizes from some unment. enemy. An explanat. of this may be, that the prizes (wh. were command. by Dutchmen) had been engag. in irreg. or piratical business. He m. Ann, eldest d. of the first Isaac Addington, and sis. of the Hon. Isaac, had Samuel, b. 18 Apr. 1671; Rebecca, 1673; and Mary. He was a capt. in Philip's war, showed gallant spirit, had great success in destroy. the Ind. by some was thot. to take too great delight in that exercise, and d. Jan. 1680. The s. d. young, and the wid. in 1684 contemplat. m. with Nehemiah Pierce, made deed of trust in favor of the ds. of wh. Rebecca m. 22 Jan. 1695, James Townsend, and Mary m. William Webster of Boston. THOMAS, Dorchester, s. of the first John, m. 28 Oct. 1658, Mary, d. of Thomas Lawrence of Hingham, had prob. that John, wh. the rec. says d. 27 Oct. 1661, unless Increase were earlier; Mary, b. 31 Dec. 1660, d. 4 Dec. next yr.; Thomas, 12 Mar. 1667, wh. d. 12 Apr. 1749; Elizabeth 19 Feb. 1669; Unite, 5 May 1671, wh. was a soldier in Withington's comp. for the crusade against Quebec 1690; Ebenezer, 4 Sept. 1673; John, 9 Apr. 1676; Nathaniel, 28 Oct. 1678; and Joseph, 17 Apr. 1681; and d. 22 Oct. 1706. His will of 4 Oct. preced. names Increase, s. of his eldest dec. s. Increase. The wid. a. Apr. 1723. The name was spell. with many variat. as Mawdesly, Modesly, Madesly, but long has been fixed at Moseley, yet liable to be much mistak. as in Geneal. Reg. VI. 268, print. Moreley. MAULE, or MAULD, EDWARD, Salem, d. 15 Nov. 1686. THOMAS, Salem 1669, a shopkeep. from Eng. came, he says in his book, via Barbadoes, was whip. for ill words, being Quaker, in May of that yr. m. 22 July 1670, Naomi Lindsay; perhaps as sec. w. had Mary, d. of George Keyser of the same, and in 1695 punish. again, for "Truth held forth, &c." Still, he show. great fondness for Salem, and in his will, a. 1723, left a bequest to its use, of wh. part was to be applied to support the writing-school. He had Susanna, b. 15 Sept. 1671; Elizabeth 11 Sept. 1673; Deliverance, 21 Oct. 1675, d. next yr.; Sarah, 17 Sept. 1677; Margaret, 20 Mar. 1680; Pelatiah, 10 May 1682; beside s.

ELIAS, Charlestown 1632, was of the ch. in Feb. of next yr. and freem. 11 June, liv. at Winnesemet, then pt. [[180]] of Boston, now Chelsea, m. Ann, d. of a wid. Elizabeth Harris, wh. bec. the w. of deac. William Stetson, had John, b. 13, bapt. 27 Feb. 1636; Abigail, 10, bapt. 14 Aug. 1637; Elizabeth 2 June 1639, d. young, prob.; Sarah, 20 Feb. 1641, d. young perhaps; Elias, 17 Mar. 1644; Peter; Mary; Ruth; Paul, 10 June 1657; and Rebecca, 1 Jan. 1660; was of ar. co. 1654, and d. a. 1684. His will, of 19 Oct. 1681, pro. 6 Nov. 1684, provides for w. s. Elias, Peter, Paul, gr.s. Jotham, s. of s. John, wh. therefore, I presume, was d.; James, s. of s. Peter, wh. was prob. d.; and ds. Abigail, wh. had m. 4 June 1655, Matthew Clark; Sarah Walton; Mary Way; Ruth Smith; and Rebecca Thomas; beside f.-inlaw deac. Stetson, and Ruth Johnson, then liv. with testator, ch. of his d. Elizabeth wh. m. 15 Oct. 1656, John Johnson, wh. had rem. to Haverhill; and nam. Elias and Paul excors. ELIAS, Boston, s. of the preced. m. 8 Dec. 1669, Margaret Sherwood, wh. join. the ch. of Charlestown in Aug. 1675, wh. may rend. it prob. that he liv. on the est. of his f. or near it, had Elias, b. 4 Nov. 1670; Margaret, and Elizabeth bapt. 22 Aug. 1673; Abigail, 24 Sept. 1676; Samuel, 14 Aug. 1687; and was freem. 1690. JOHN, Dorchester, came in the Mary and John, 1630, from Plymouth, with collea. Warham, desir. to be adm. freem. 19 Oct. and is first on the list of those wh. took the o. 18 May 1631, d. 3 Feb. 1636, while prepar. to accomp. his friends, wh. rem. to Windsor, perhaps, tho. Blake's Ann. say he would have contin. with Mather. He was in 60th yr. and much do I regret the ill success of inq. for his place of educ. or any acco. of his early days. All that we get from the veracious annals of Clap, wh. was by his f. commit. to the care of M. when the youth had leave to come to N. E. is, that he liv. 40 miles off. On what author. he is said to have d. at Boston, I kn. not. JOHN, Boston, possib. B. of the preced. as Farmer thot. but to me it seems very improb. by w. Jane had John, b. 18, bapt. with his sis. Jane or his mo. 30 Apr. 1653: and Dorothy, 23, bapt. 28 Jan. 1655. Perhaps his w. d. soon aft. as well as s. John, and by sec. w. Rebecca he had John, again, 28 July 1662. JOHN, Boton, S. of Elias the first, m. 9 Apr. 1656, Catharine Skipper, had Jotham, b. 30 Mar. 1660; Elizabeth 17 Oct. 1662; Sarah, 20 June 1665; Ann, 21 Sept. 1671; Skipper, 4 May 1674; and Catharine, 18 Sept. 1676. When he d. is not told; but his wid. I presume, m. 8 Sept. 1680, John Johnson. MOSES, Salem, perhaps br. of the first Elias, freem. 3 Sept. 1634, tho. Felt ins. his name with w. in the list of ch. memb. under 1637, and so he must believe tbat he had been accept. in ano. town, had Rebecca, bapt. 7 Aug. 1639; Mary, 14 Feb. 1641, d. at 15 yrs.; Abigail, 12 Jan. 1645; Elizabeth 3 Dec. 1646, d. soon; Samuel, 19 Dec. 1647; Elizabeth again, 30 Sept. 1649, wh. m. 6 Apr. 1665, Nathaniel Grafton; Remember, 12 Sept. 1652; Mary, again, 6 Sept. 1657; [[181]] and a s. wh. name is not in the rec. 20 Mar. 1663; beside Sarah, wh. is not found in the rec.

Abigail, viz.: Samuel Ward, Abigail Hinds, Mary Dollabar, and Martha Ward; and four liv. ds. viz.: Elizabeth Skinner; Remember Woodman; Mary, w. of Archibald Ferguson; and Sarah, w. of John Norman. PAUL, Boston, s. of the first Elias, m. Jemima, d. of lieut. John Smith, had Moses, b. 8 Feb. bapt. at Charlestown, 11 Sept. 1681; Jotham, 28 Oct. 1683; John, 14 Aug. 1687, one yr. old. PETER, Boston, elder br. of the preced. m. Martha, d. of Robert Bradford, had Martha, b. 8 Feb. 1671; and James. SAMUEL, Boston, found here on Noddle's isl. by the Mass. comp. in 1630, hav. built a little fort with four small pieces of artil. so that we may be sure he was here in 1629, perhaps came in 1628, too late for liability to expense of the expedit. of Endicott against Morton. He desir. adm. 19 Oct. 1630, into the comp. but did not take the freeman's o. until 2 Oct. 1632. Against all probabil. he is call. s. of Rev. John by a writer of more animation than exactness, in Hist. of E. Boston; and even the careful Hist. of Dorchester, 404, confident. says the same. For his habit of hospitality, he was requir. in the spring of 1635, to change his resid. and move to the peninsula, but that tyranny was not enforced, and in the autumn of the same yr. he went to Virg. to buy corn, was absent almost a yr. He was one of the king's Commissrs. 1665, and in a depon. 9 Dec. 1665, sw. he was 63 yrs. old. Of his fam. only w. Amias, d. Mary, and s. Nathaniel, and Samuel are kn. Nathaniel, wh. was a merch. in a conveyance by his f. and mo. 1650, of the isl. to some creditors, is styled heir of Noddle's isl. and he join. in the security. But we never hear more of him. Mary m. 8 Feb. 1656, John Palsgrave, and next, 20 Sept. 1660, Francis Hooke. She, in a petitn. to Andros, a few wks. bef. his overthrow, tells a strange story a. her elder br. defraud. his f. of the title to Noddle's isl. wh. had above seventeen yrs. been own. by Col.

SAMUEL of Boston, wh. by w.

By a sec. w. whose name Potter has not giv. he says there were three, perhaps nam. Elizabeth Mercy, and Pardon, but the want of precision is unavoid.

See Hutch. II. 197. THOMAS, Watertown, b. early in 1591, came in the Griffin, 1633, if we might so infer from the fact of his tak. hix o. as freem. 14 May 1634, when Gov. Haynes and Gov. Brenton, besides Cotton, Hooker, and Stone, passeng. in that ship were adm. But that infer. would be wrong, for in Col.

Watertown and the new town, 6 Mar. 1632, and in July 1633, he was appoint. admor. of Ralph Glover, while Cotton and fellow passeng. did not arr. bef Sept. next, so that he must have been here in 1631, and he serv. as a merch. at Southampton, Eng. as Bond relates, and here as rep. 1636-44 exc. 42, was active in trade, first at Medford, aft. at W. but was induced to rem. to the Vineyard a. 1647, where he was propr.'s Gov. and preacher to the Ind. above 33 yrs. d. 1681, six days only bef. being 90 yrs. old. It is indistinc. pronounc. by tradit. that first w. h. d. in Eng. had been Martha Parkhurst, and sec. was prob. brot. with him, Grace, wid. of Thomas Paine, of London, and by her he had Hannah, b. 15 June 1635; Bethia, 6 Dec. 1636; and Mary, 14 Jan. 1640. It is not kn. that he had any s. but Thomas wh. he, as b. of the. former w. brot. from Eng. but some uncert. is felt as to the relat. of f. and I do not concur with Bond, 857, in mak. Jane the last w. of Thomas the elder, but think her wid. of the s. nor do I believe that it was the s. wh. was, in 1647, chos. by Thomas Paine, then 15 yrs. old, as, with his w. Grace, guardians for him. THOMAS, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. serv. with his f. at the Vineyard, being the first min. bef. went to Eng. m.

I think, 1690, tho. the rec. says sen. when his f. was alive, and hav. once sworn in 1685, needed not to go through the solemnity again, yet it was, perhaps, thot. good to swear double in those times. He d. 15 May, 1731, and his wid. d. 10 Jan. 1740. JOSEPH, Marlborough, youngest s. of the sec. John of Sudbury, m. 1707, Elizabeth Price, had Persis, b. 1713; Elizabeth 1716; and Benjamin, 1721.

It must be very easy to distinguish this fam. from [[196]] the numerous Mellens. JACOB, New Havenn took o. of fidel with his f. (wh. had been there seat. in the ch. as early as 1655, prob. a Dutchman from New York), m. 1662, perhaps, Hannah, d. of George Hubbard, but aft. 1663, had rem. to Boston, was a leather seller, constable sev. yrs. bef. and aft. 1695, he had been chos. guardian 27 July 1693, by his neph.

C. 1696, and Abigail Tilley, w. of William, aft. of Hon. Samuel Sewall, Ch. J. and explains his act in giv. equal. to s. and d. bec. for his liberal educ. he had expend. £300. This s. SAMUEL, stands the lowest in the class, being ninth in the mod. catal. but in the old catal. of the Magnalia, the class contain. but eight. I found at the State House a letter from Samuel (teach. the gram. sch. 1700 at Hadley) to Cotton Mather, beg. his aid in restoring him to a higher rank; but the consequence was, that Mather had his cous. Roland Cotton insert. in the catal. as second next aft. Gov. Vaughan, and poor Melyen took nothing but one peg lower by his motion. So that he had shown greater discret. in keep. quiet, than in ask. the patronage of his Boston friend. His wid. d. Nov. 1717.

SIMEON, Boston, s. of the first Henry ar. co. 1675, by Bethia, d. of Robert Howard, the notary of Boston, had Bethia, b. 24 May 1668; and Mary, 25 Mar. 1672. THOMAS, Boston, br. of the precea. by w.

Reg. IX.59; and Ebesnezer, 2 June 1697. METCALF, frequently MEDCALF, in early rec. ELEAZER, Wrentham, s. of the sec. Michael, m. 9 Apr. 1684, Meletiah Fisher, had Eleazer, b. 30 May 1685, d. young; Michael, 21 May 1687; Samuel, 15 Jan. 1689; Ebenezer, 8 Jan. 1691; Jonathan, 9 Apr. 1693; Meletia, Apr. 1695; Timothy, 2 July 1697; Martha and Mary tw. 27 Aug. 1699; and Eleazer, again, 21 Nov. 1701; was deac. and d. 14 May 1704. JOHN, Medfield, s. of the first Michael, b. in Eng. m. 22 Mar. 1647, Mary, d. of Francis Chickering, had John, b. 21, bapt. 26 Mar. 1648; Michael, 20, bapt. 25 Aug. 1650; Mary, 9, bapt. 24 Oct. 1652; these all at Dedham; but at M. we kn. not that we name all, when enumer. Joseph, 22 Nov. 1658; and Hannah, 13 0ct. 1664. He was freem. 1647, and d. 27 Nov. 1675 unless this date belongs to his eldest 8. JOHN, New Haven 1645, a brickmaker, may have been s. or br. of Stephen, as a. the yr. 1647, he rem. JONATHAN, Dedham, s. of the sec. Michael, m. 10 Apr. 1674, Hannah, d. of John Kenrick, had Jonathan, b. 16 Mar. 1675; John, 20 Mar. 1678; Ebenezer, 14 Feb. 1680; Joseph, 2 or 11 Apr. 1682, H. C. 1703, min. of Falmouth; Timothy, 18 Nov. 1684, d. at 11 yrs; Eleazer, 14 Feb. 1687; Hannah, 10 Apr. 1689; Nathaniel, Apr. 1691; Mehitable; and Mary; was freem. 1683 or 4, his name being ins. ea. yr. and he d. 27 May 1727, and his wid. d. 23 Dec. 1731. Joseph, Ipswich, freem. 4 Mar. 1635, rep. in Sept. of that yr. and oft. aft. d. 21 July 1665, aged 60. By his will, we learn [[203]] that his w. was Elizabeth his s. Thomas, b. in Eng. prob. and gr.s. Joseph, Mary, and Elizabeth but, perhaps this had d. soon. His wid. m. 8 Nov. 1670 Edward Beacham. JOSEPH, Ipswich, s. of Thomas, prob by w. Rebecca, had Jacob, b. 8 June 1685, prob. d. soon; and Abigail, 29 Mar. 1686. MICHAEL, Dedbam, b. 1586, at Tatterford, in Co. Norfolk, was a dornock weaver at Norwich, and free of the city, where all his ch. were b. m. 13 Oct. 1616, Sarah, had Michael, b. 13 Nov. 1617, d. soon; Mary, 14 Oct. 1618, but the geneal. of the fam. in Reg. VI. 173, says 14 Feb. 1619; Michael, again, 29 Aug. 1620; John, 5 or 15 Sept. 1622, bef. ment. Sarah, 10 Sept. 1624: Elizabeth 4 Oct. 1626; Martha, 27 Mar. or Oct. 1628, Thomas, 27 Dec. 1629 or 30; Ann, 1 Mar. 1631 or 34, d. soon; Jane, 24 Mar. 1632; and Rebecca, 5 Apr. 1635; his w. was b. at a village near Norwich, he says, 17 June 1593, but possib.the figures have been mistaken, as in the examin. one week bef. the sail. of the ship, call. I think, the Rose, of Yarmouth, from Yarmouth, Apr. 1637, he calls hims. 45 yrs; of age, and w. 39. "From the relig. tyranny" exercised a by Wren, then Bp. of Norwich, he felt forced to esc. even at the expense of separ. from his fam. for a time, and emb. at London, 17 Sept. 1636, for N. E. but was sadly tormented by equal tempests on the water, and the ship at Christmas put back to Plymouth; and so far was this a happiness that in Apr. foll. he had license for the whole. fam. to come; only 8 ch. are ment. in the custom-ho. docum. but can hardly doubt that the name of John was casually overlook. At Boston he arr. "three days bef. mid. sum. with w. nine ch. and a serv." wh. was Thomas Comberbach, aged 16, I presume in one of the three ships ment. by Winthrop as coming in, from Ipswich, 20 June. He may have been br. of Joseph; was freem. 13 May 1640, or 18 May 1642, and, perhaps, swore on both days, tho. more prob. it is a fault of the Secr. as in the list appears. His w. d. 21 Feb. 1645, and he m. 13 Aug. foll. Martha, wid. of Thomas Pigg, or Pidge; and he d. 27 Dec. 1664. A very curious docum. his engagm. aft. 70 yrs. of age to keep the town ch. in 1656, is giv. in Geneal. Reg. X. 282. His will, made six wks. bef. gives to eight ch. Michael being d. and ea. of the ds. m. Martha hav. then a sec. or third h. to gr.ch. Michael, s. of Michael, and gr.ch. William Brignall, s. of d. Martha, wh. was a mem. of Roxbury ch. by her first h. and to Martha Bullard, d. of his w. Mary, m. 24 Nov. 1642, Henry Wilson, Sarah m. Robert Onion, was his sec. w. the first hav. d. in Apr. 1643; Elizabeth m. 5 Sept. 1648, Thomas Bancroft of Reading; Martha m. William Brignall, next, 2 Aug. 1654, Christopher Smith as the Geneal. Reg. VI. 173, says, tho. I doubt its correctness, for Christopher Smith in 1668, is nam. in his will. by Jonathan Fairbanks as h. of his d. Mary, and third h. . . . Stow; Jane m. 1654, Samuel Walker, [[204]] (tho. strong, doubts of error in the name are felt) of Rehoboth ; and Rebecca m. 5 Apr. 1659, John Mackintosh. MICHAEL, Dedham, eldest s. of the preced. b. in Eng. m. 2 or 12 Apr. 1644, Mary, d. of John Fairbanks, says the Metcalf geneal. bef. ment. but perhaps by mistake, had Michael, b. 21 Jan. 1645; Mary, 15 Aug. 1646; Sarah, 7 Dec. 1648; Jonathan, 21 Sep 1650; and Eleazer, 20 Mar. 1653, bef. ment. was freem. 1645, and d. (ten yrs. bef. his f.) 24 Dec. 1654. Mary m. 10 Dec. 1668, John Ware; and Sarah m. 4 June 1677, Robert Ware. MICHAEL, Dedham, s. of the preced. 17 Sept. 1672, Elizabeth not, I think, as Goodwin has it, d. but wid. of the sec. John Kingsbury, d. of Thomas Fuller, both of the same, had Michael, b. 9 May 1674, Mary, 3 Oct. 1676; Thomas, 3 Jan. 1679; Sarah, 26 Apr. 1682; Eleazer, 12 Feb. 1685; Hannah, 17 Apr. 1687; Daniel, 25 July 1691; and Elizabeth; was freem. 1690, and d. 2 Sept. 1693. His wid. d. 24 Oct. 1732. STEPHEN, New Haven 1639, a brickmaker, aft. 1647 prob. rem. was in good repute. THOMAS, Dedham, youngest s. of the first Michael, b. in Eng. m. 12 Sept. 1656, Sarah Paige, had Sarah, b. 3 Mar. 1658; Mary, bapt. 25 Nov. 1660; Samuel, b. 17 0ct. 1661, d. soon; Thomas; 22 Sept. 1663, d. soon; Samuel, again, 17 Sept. 1668; Thomas, again, 7 or 21 May 1671; John, 20 Sept. 1675; and Judith, 25 Nov. 1677, d. at 5 yrs. The w. d. and he m. 2 Dec. 1679, Ann Paine of Rehoboth, was freem. 1653, deac. and rep. 1691, d. 16 Nov. 1702. Sarah m. 23 Nov. 1676, Samuel Whiting, and d. 1702. THOMAS, Ipswich 1648, s. of Joseph the first, b. in Eng. I suppose, had Mary, b. 23 June 1658; Joseph, 27 Jan. 1661; Thomas, 4 Dec. 1667; beside prob. Elizabeth nam. in the will of gr.f. He was freem. 1674. Of the mo. of these ch. we kn. nothing; but he may have d. and one Thomas of Ipswich, a widower, m. 1658, wid. Lydia Davis. Still more uncertainty is felt unless we give him ano. w. for the wid. of Thomas M. nam. Abigail, d. at I. 5 May 1727, aged 88 yrs. An earlier Thomas of Ipswich is found by Mr. Felt to be inhab. there 1638. THOMAS, Dedham, s. of the first Thomas, m. 24 Nov. 1696, Sarah, d. of William Avery, the sec. of the name, had Sarah, b. 26 Apr. 1698, d. in few wks.; Samuel, 9 Apr. 1699, d. at 14 yrs. Thomas, 30 Dec. 1701; and Sarah, 1 Dec. 1703, and he d. 12 Dec. 1704; and his wid. m. 6 Apr. 1709, Joseph Wight, and d. 1748. Two of this name had, in 1829, been gr. at Harv. and seven at the other N. E. coll. It is oft. in old rec. writ. as no doubt it was sound. Medcalf. METHUP, with five varriatios, DANIEL, Watertown, m. 25 or 27 Mar. 1664 (Bond gives both dates) Bethia, perhaps d. of Anthony Beers, had Bethia, b. 24 Feb. 1665; Mary, 13 Sept. 1666; Daniel, 10 May 1668; Robert, 31 Aug. 1671; Isaac, 22 Dec. 1672; Sarah, 14 Feb. 1675; [[205]] Abigail, 2 June 1678; and Hannah, 31 July 1681. He d. 24 Feb. 1717, and his wid. d. 22 Feb. 1722. Dissatisf. with all the forms of this name, Bond inq. if it be not pervers. of Maddock. MEW, ELLIS, New Haven, took o. of fidel. 1654, is one of the freem. 1669, by w. Ann, d. of William Gibbons, had Ann; and Dodd, 135, tells no more. In his list of deaths is Ann, only ch. 1681, and Ann, wid. Feb. 1704. But he might have added, that the h. and f. d. 1681; and in 1685 his heirs appear, as proprs. without discrimin. as he had not long been d. MICO, JOHN, Boston 1689, merch. m. 20 Aug. of that yr. Mary, d. of Thomas Brattle, and d. Oct. 1718. His wid. d. 22 Dec. 1733. MIDDLEBROOK, JOSEPH, Concord, went with Rev. John Jones to Fairfield 1644, in 1670 was propr. there, call. sen. and prob. d. in Nov. 1686, the inv. of his est. being 22 of that mo. He m. Mary, wid. of Benjamin Turney, the first, had s. of the same name with hims. and d. Phebe, w. of Samuel Wilson, the only heirs. MIDDLECOTT, RICARD, Boston, came from Warminister, Co. Wilts, bring. s. Edward, m. here sec. w. Sarah, wid. of Tobias Payne, wh. had been wid. of sec. Miles Standish, and d. of John Winslow, had Mary, b.

His wid. d. 1728. Mary m. Henry Gibbs; and next, Othaniel Haggett of Barbadoes; Sarah m. 26 Mar. 1702, Louis Boucher; and Jane m. 7 Jan. 1703, Elisha Cooke, jr. MIDDLETON, JAMES, Dover 1658, rem. to Maine 1665. THOMAS, L. I. 1661. Thompson. WILLIAM, Boston, by w.

He d. 3 Mar. 1699 aged 74, says the gr.stone found, Oct. 1850, in the wall of the tower of the Old South ch. MIGHILL, EZEKIEL, Rowely, s. of Thomas of the same. JOHN, Suffield, was, perhaps, s. of Thomas of Rowley, d. 1702, John, Thomas, Nathaniel, and Nicholas, but no d. is nam. NATHANIEL, Rowley, s. of the first Thomas, was prob. a merch. and d. 13 Oct. 1677, without issue. SAMUEL, Rowley, s. of Thomas, was perhaps b. bef. com. to our country m. 21 Nov. 1657, Elizabeth d. of Abraham Toppan of Newbury, was tax. in 1691, STEPHEN, Rowley, s. prob. youngest, of Thomas of the same, m. Sarah d. of Rev. Samuel Phillips, had Nathaniel, b. 1684; and two ds. THOMAS, Roxbury, with w. Ellen was adm. of the ch. perhaps as early as 1637, at least the name is ent. prior to that of Rev. John Miller, wh. he accomp. from Roxbury, to Rowley, 1639, was deac. of the ch. gath. 3 Dec. 1639, freem. 13 May 1640, rep. 1648; had Samuel, possib. b. in Eng. but more prob. not; Thomas, at Rowley, 29 Oct. 1639, H. C. [[206]] 1663; John; Ezekiel, 1642; Timothy, 1644; Nathaniel, 1646; Stephen, 1651; and two ds. of wh. one was Mary. THOMAS, Scituate s. of the preced. preach. some yrs. m. at Roxbury, 8 Nov. 1669, Bethia, d. perhaps, of Joseph. (more prob. of Daniel) Weld, and had d. Elizabeth bapt. 30 Apr. 1671; and Hannah, 22 Mar. 1674; bef. going to S. and there had Mary, b. 1683, Samuel, 1685, H.

Samuel taught the gr. sch. at Hadley, perhaps aft. at Milton, m. and liv. some yrs. at Hartford, but was poor, went back to Hadley, d. at S. Hadley 11 Apr. 1769, long support. by the town. MILBURNE, WILLIAM, Saco, was the min. 1685, acc. Folsom, 137, prob. d. at Boston, Aug. 1699. MILBURY, or MILLBURY, HENRY, York 1680, had a fam. for the will of William Dixon gave something to his childr. and he may have m. a d. of Dixon. RICHARD, York 1680, perhaps s. of the preced. sw. alleg. 1681, as did Henry. MILDMAY, WILLIAM, s. of Sir Henry of Graces, in Essex, H. C. 1647, tho. sent by his f. with a tutor from Eng. Richard Lyon, is ranked lowest in his class, yet had his A. M. in regul. course. Sir Walter, of the same fam. was founder, in the time of Queen Elizabeth of Emanuel Coll. at the Univ. of Cambridge, wh. supplied N. E. in its early days, as Farmer remarks, with some of the chief lights that illumin. its chhs. and well may be added the venerab. Gov. Bradstreet. MILES, BENJAMIN, Dedham, s. of Samuel, freem. 1678. JOHN, Concord 1637 freem. 14 Mar. 1639, by w. Sarah had Mary, b. 11 Feb. 1640, and, perhaps, no other ch. His w. d. 18 July 1678, and he m.

His w. d. 31 Dec. 1675, and he m. 2 Nov. 1680, Mary, d. of Joseph Alsop, of the same, had Hannah, 10 Aug. 1681; Daniel, 20 Sept. 1683; and Joseph, 26 Oct. 1690. He was a capt. made his will 28 Nov. 1700, but liv. to 7 Nov. 1704; and the wid. d. 16 0ct. 1705; freem. 1669, lieut. in 1675, and propr. in 1685. JOHN, Boston, min. of the first Bapt. ch. rem. 1683 to Swansey. JOHN, Concord, s. of the first John, m. 16 Apr. 1702, Mary, d. of Dr. Jonathan Prescot, had John, b. 24 Dec. 1704, Jonathan, 13 Feb. 1706; Mary, 18 Oct. 1709; Elizabeth 16 Nov. 1714, d. young, James, 1 Aug. 1719; and Benjamin, 26 [[207]] Nov. 1724; and d. 23 Aug. 1725. JOSEPH, Kittery, submit. 1652, to jurisdict. of Mass. JOSEPH, Salem, arraign. as a Quaker 1659, may have been the passeng. wh. took the o. of supremacy and alleg. 26 Mar. 1634, pass for N. E. in the Mary and John, tho. it may be he was his s. for we hear not where the passeng. sat down. He m. 18 Jan. 1662, Mary Whelan, as in Essex Inst. II. 297 is told, but I fear the ceremony was not legal. However, as his w. d. next yr. perhaps no prosecut. was had; and he was m. in a more satisfact. way, 7 Nov. 1664, to Exercise Felton, had Mary, b. 1 Apr. 1666; Susanna, 7 Oct. 1667; Abigail, 5 July 1669; and Mary, again, 27 Mar. 1671. RICHARD, Milford 1639, New Haven, 1643, then had 7 in his fam. of wh. Samuel was bapt. at 12 Apr. 1640, being the first in that town; but at New Haven, Hannah, Oct. 1642; and John, Oct. 1644; but the days of both are unkn. as tho. Hannah's is giv. in print 7, it is wrong, in that most valua. list, with so many other errors, furnished by the scrupulous Henry White of that city. Aft. spend. in ea. day of a whole week, not a few hours, in compar. that rec. as thus publish. I wrote to ask explana. of the discrepancies and errors, and obtain. full ansr. The town clk.'s entries may be relived on, in opposit. to those of the ch. that, I am happy to say, is contra. to com. experience. Take p. 39 of Geneal. Reg. IX. where names of 80 bapt. are giv. and only one half are true, 27 being positiv. false, and 13 more deficient in days. Two ch. of Rev. William Hooke are correct. enter.; but of two of John Davenport, the s. of the pastor, one is clea. wrong, 19 Nov. 1666, wh. was Monday. We kn. that ordin. was never allow. on a week day. He d. 7 Jan. 1667. In his will of 28 Dec. 1666, names w. Catherine, eldest s. Richard, and to other ch. without nam. makes div. In 1651 he was rep. His w. was, no doubt, a sec. or third w. for in the will wh. was pro. 13 June 1667, a ft. provid.for his ch. he gave residue to her, bec. she had considerable, when he m.her, part of wh. belong. to her childr. by former h.

RICHARD, Boston, by w. Experience had Elizabeth b. 22 Dec. 1664; and Richard, 10 Oct. 1667. SAMUEL, Dedham 1642, freem. 1645, by w. Frances had Samuel, bapt. 29 Mar. 1646, d. next mo.; Benjamin, 13 Apr. 1651, bef. ment.; Elizabeth 5 Dec. 1652, and Rebecca, 17 May 1657. SAMUEL, Boston, m. 16 Oct. 1659, Elizabeth d. of Francis Dowse, had Samuel, b. 27 Apr. 1662. SAMUEL, New Haven, freem. 1669, wh. d. 24 Dec. 1678, was s. of the first Richard.

His wid. m. 20 Sept. 1681. Miles Merwin, jr.

[[208]] 1716; Martha, 18 Mar. 1719; Nathan, 14 Jan. 1721; Reuben, 12 Dec. 1723; and Charles, 28 June 1727. Whether some of the foregoing should be spell. Mills, or whether other, should be brot. in here from that platoon, I have vain. labor. to ascert. In the old rec. we may find the same man, often, in or under differ. names. MILK, or MILKE, JOHN, Salem, authoriz. chimney sweep. 1663, He m. 3 Apr. 1665, Sarah Weston, prob. d. of John, had John, b. 8 Jan. 1669; and Mary, 22 Mar. 1670. MILLARD, JOHN, Rehoboth, a tanner, had a s. of the same name, perhaps bef. 1658. Baylies, II. 208. THOMAS, Boston, had a lot for five heads, gr. him at Mount Wollaston 1639. MILLER, ABRAHAM, Charlestown, had Susanna, bapt. 12 June 1692. He was, perhaps, s. of James, the Scotchman. ABRAHAM, Northampton, youngest s. of William of the same, m. 1 Jan. 1700, Hannah, d. of Elder Preserved Clapp, had John, b. 4 Feb. 1701; Abraham, 29 Nov. 1702; Jonathan, 12 Mar. 1704; d. young; Roger, 22 July 1705; Hannah, 24 Oct. 1707; Wait, 26 July 1711; Zebediah, 6 Nov. 1713; William, 21 Sept. 1716; and Seth, 25 June 1719.

ALEXANDER, Dorchester 1637, freem. 2 May 1638, was never m. that we hear of, or at least no ch. is ment. ANDREW, Enfield, an early sett. d. 1708, aged 60, had David, wh. m. 1713, Hannah Miller, and d. 1715. ANTHONY, Dover, was rep. 1674-6.

JAMES, Charleston, perhaps s. of Richard, m. 25 Nov. 1673, Hannah, d. of John George, who join. the ch. 15 Apr. 1677, and was then bapt. had James, b. 19 Dec. 1674 ; Hannah, 16, bapt. 22 July 1677; Elinor, bapt. 16 May 1680; James, again b. 1, bapt. 5 Feb. 1682; Richard, 13, bapt. 19 0ct. 1684; Elizabeth 27 Dec. 1686, bapt. 2 Jan. foll.; John, b. 27 Aug. 1688; Mary, 6, bapt. 15 June 1690, and Ruth, 31 Dec. 1693, bapt. 7 Jan. foll. and he d. 10 Jan. 1705; aged a. 64. His wid. d. 11 Dec. 1733, aged 78. He d. 2 Aug. 1676, Farmer says, tho. a doubt arises as to the justness of the date, exc. for that of d. of his first b. ch. None of this name was ever heard of at C. a short time prior, certain. no householder in 1658. Yet in Dec. 1676 a James is adm. of the ch. and freem. in May foll. and in Mar. of next yr. two Jameses are among the householders, [[209]] prob. mov. in from neighb. town, one of wh. was selectman 1690, and ano. perhaps the Scotchman, whose s. was prob. the other, for his d. was 14 July 1690, and his w. Mary join. to the ch. 5 Aug. 1677, being pt. that day, with her eight ch. James, Mary, Robert, Job, Abraham, Isaac, Mercy, and Jane. The rec. of his f.'s d. 1 Aug. 1688, calls him "sen. an aged Scotchman, above 70." Still ano. JAMES, prob. not of Charlestown, a soldier, was k. by the Ind. 4 Sept. 1675, near Northfield, with his capt. Beers. JAMES, Norwalk, 1671, wh. we hear no more, exc. that he liv. at Rye nine yrs. aft. JOHN Dorchester 1636, by some thot. not by me, perhaps s. of Richard the first, had sh. in 1637, says Harris, of the lds. in the neck, now South Boston; but he was rather of Roxbury, in my opinion, for there is rec. of his d. Mehitable, b. 12 July 1638, and with w. Lydia, he belonged to Eliot 's ch. of wh. he was an elder, was bred at Gonville and Caius Coll. Cambridge, where he took his A. B. 1627, freem. 22 May 1639, without the prefix of respect; brot. from Eng. John, b. Mar. 1632, perhaps had there other ch. or aft. coming here, may have had at Roxbury, or at Rowley, some not ment. went to be min. 1639 at Rowley, and was also the first town clk. there, where he had Lydia, b. 2 Feb. or 12 Apr. 1640, as the numerals are read both ways, contin. only two or three yrs. and he was invit. to go on the mission of 1642 to Virg. but declin. it, and soon aft. accept. the call to Yarmouth, Cape Cod; yet he can hardly have been long resid. there. At Roxbury, again he was liv. had Susanna, b. 2 May, by Yarmouth rec. but by R. 24, bapt. 29 Aug. 1647, who d. at Charlestown, unm. 14 Oct. 1669; Elizabeth 13 Oct. 1649; perhaps preach where any tempo. want existed. His w. d. at Boston, 7 Aug. 1658, and he d. at Groton, 12 June 1669. His s. John took admin. of his est. 3 July foll. His d. Mehitable m. John Crow of Yarmouth; Lydia m. a Fish of Sandwich; Faith m. 3 Aug. 1664, Nathaniel Winslow of Marshfield, and d. 9 Nov. 1729; Elizabeth m. Samuel Frost of Billerica; Hannah m. 22 May 1666; Joseph Frost of Charlestown; and Mary, the youngest I suppose, m. 8 Nov. 1677, John Whittmore of Charlestown. JOHN, Dover 1647, was, perhaps, of Kennebec, 1665, as in Sullivan, 287, and sw. alle. to the k. 1681. JOHN, Yarmouth, s. of Rev. John, b. in Eng. m. 24 Dec. 1659, Margaret, d. of the first Josiah Winslow, had Lydia, b. 18 May 1661; Rebecca, 7 Nov. 16; Hannah, 19 Apr. 1666; Margaret, 19 Apr. 1668; Mehitable, 14 May 1670; John, 20 Feb. 1673 ; Margaret, again, 2 Mar. 1675; Susanna, 26 July 1677; Josiah, 27 Oct. 1679; and John, again, 16 Oct. 1681. He was rep. 1671-82; d of his ds. we find m. of the first three, viz.: Lydia, 29 Dec. 1681, Jacob Cook; Rebecca, 15 Feb. 1682, to Thomas Clark; and Hannah, 12 Feb. 1690, to Joseph Hall. JOHN, Rehoboth 1643, may have gone [[210]] from Dorchester, but not so prob. as that he was f. of John, Ichabod, and Robert, who all appear there in div. of lds. 1668. His w. Elizabeth was bur. 18 Apr. 1680. JOHN, Wethersfield, one of the first sett. a. 1636; rem. 1642 to Stamford, there d. very soon, leav. wid.; and s. John, Jonathan, and Joseph, all liv. 1666, when his will was brot. in 6 Nov. tho. his wid. had m. Obadiah Seely, bore him three ch. and was at the same time call. to make inv. for her latter h. JOHN, Easthampton, L. I. 1650 Thompson. JOHN, Stamford 1662, s. of John of the same, had a ch. b. that yr and was grant. ld. 1667, propos. for freem. 1669, and in 1687 was rated for good est. But in 1697 he with his brs. Jonathan and Joseph, are enum. in the patentof Bedford, set off from S. to the N. Y. jurisdict. by the new line of boundary, wh. in 1701, left no Miller in S. Jonathan had been in 1672 a resid. of S. A John, who came passeng. in the Speedwell, from London, 1656, aged 24, may have been that gent. of Yarmouth with those yrs. he precise. agrees or the inhab. of Cape Porpus 1680, wh. was rep. in 1685, at that Court held under auth. of Mass. by Presid. Danforth. JOHN, Springfield, freem. 1690. JOHN, Yarmouth, s. of John of the same, gr.s. of Rev. John, m. 23 Jan. 1707, Thankful Howes. JONATHAN, Springfield 1678. JOSEPH, came in the Hopewell, capt. Babb, from London, aged 15, perhaps s. of some one thath has come bef. may have been of Dover 1647, and may be the same as the next. JOSEPH, Newbury, had w. Mary, who, Coffin says, had been wid. of capt. John Cutting, and d. 6 Mar. 1663, but in ano. place, 6 May 1664; and he d. 21 July 1681. JOSEPH, Marlborough, freem. 1685, may be the man of Cambridge, who m. Mary, only d. of Water Pope had Thomas b. 9 Apr. 1675; Samuel 24 Sept. 1678; and prob. Joseeph of Newton, wh. d. 1711; and Jane, wh. d. 1719. He d. 1697, and his wid. d. 1711. Perhaps he was s. of Richard. JOSIAH, Yarmouth, s. of the sec. John of the same, d. 15 Apr. 1729, and his wid. Mary d. at Pembroke, 15 Feb. 1772, "aged 94 yrs. wanting a few days," says fam. rep prob. with some exagger. LAZARUS, Springfield, s. of Obadiah, took o. of alleg. 1678, as did at the same time, OBADIAH, and OBADIAH jr. Of the former, were Lazarus, b. 1655; Obadiah, 1658; and Joanna, 1659; his w. Joanna d. E. NICHOLAS, Plymouth, whose will of 24 Oct. 1665 bears the name Hodges, also, may therefore be the same person borne on the list of those able to bear arms, 1643. PAUL, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Sarah, b. 21 Feb. 1692; and he liv. not long aft. RICHARD, Charlestown, came, perhaps, in 1637 and had gr. of a lot, it is said, in 1638, but as neither Frothingham, in the Hist. of the town, nor Budington, in that of the. ch. ment. him, we may suppose he d. early. Elinor, who join. the ch. 4 Nov. 1643, may have been his w. or wid. She m. Henry Herbert and d. 17 Nov. 1667; and her d. Hannah M. m. 17 June 1663, Nathaniel [[211]] Dade, and aft. his d. m. 4 Oct. 1667, John Edmands, and next, m. 22 May 1684, deac. Aaron Ludkin, long outliv. him, and d. 13 Dec. 1717. RICHARD, Kittery, had Samuel, Martha, and Mary; was d. bef. June 1694; and his wid. Grace m. Christopher Benfield. Mary m. Ephraim Wentworth. But she may, as also the br. and sis. belong to Ephraim, as claim. by the Wentworths. ROBERT, a soldier under capt. Turner 1676, prob. present in the Falls fight, may have come from Rehoboth, certain. from some E. part. At R. he had Solomon, b. 6 Mar. 1674; Mary, 14 June 1680. ROBERT, Boston, by w. Lydia, had Lydia, b. 25 Jan. 1666; is possib. the same as the preced. SAMUEL, Springfield, freem. 1690. SAMUEL, Rehoboth, m. 20 July 1682 Esther Bowen, had Esther, b. 4 Apr. foll. and, perhaps, he had sec. w. Rebecca, d. of Joseph Belcher. SAMUEL, Kittery, s. of Richard, or Ephraim. SYDRACH, Salem 1629, a cooper, prob. same with Higginson. THOMAS, Rowley 1646, had license to sell wines next yr. may have rem. to Middletown. THOMAS, Boston, planter, had est. of a. three acres, adjoin. the town common, sold in 1668, to Thomas Deane. THOMAS, Springfield, m. 1649, Sarah, d. of Thomas Marshfield, had Sarah, b. 1650; Thomas, 1653; Samuel, John, 1657; Joseph, 1659, d. soon; Josiah, 1660; Deborah, 1662; Martha, 1664, d. soon; Martha, again, 1665; Ebenezer, 1667; Mehitable, 1669; Joseph, again, 1671; and Experience, a d. 1673; and he was k. by the Ind. Sept. 1675, as may have been his s. John next yr. in the gr. Falls fight. Five ds. and four s. were m. at S. THOMAS, Middletown, an early sett. from Rowley, by w. Isabel, wh. d. 1666, had Ann, that m. a. 1653, Nathaniel Bacon; and when above 56 yrs. old, took, 6 June, 1666, sec. w. Sarah, d. of Samuel Nettleton, of Branford, a girl prob. not older than his d. Ann; had Thomas, b. 6 May, 1666, w. date proves that some interfer. of a judicial kind had been invok. or was aft.; Samuel, 1 Apr. 1668; Joseph, 21 Aug. 1670; Benjamin, 10 or 20 July, 1672; John, 10 Mar. 1674, Margaret, 1 Sept. 1676; Sarah, 7 Jan. 1679; and Mehitable, posthum. 28 Mar. 1681. He d. 14 Aug. 1680, and in his will, three days bef. calls hims. above 70. In the rec. Sept. foll. these ch. on the div. of est. are nam. Thomas, aged 14; Samuel, 12; Joseph, 10; Benjamin, 8; Margaret, 4; and Sarah, 1. His wid. m. a Harris, perhaps Thomas; and Sarah m. Smith Johnson of Woodstock. THOMAS, Springfield, s. of Thomas of the same, was in the Falls figbt 1676, m. Dec. 1681, Rebecca Leonard, d. of John, had Thomas and Rebecca, and d. 1690. THOMAS, Middletown, eldest s. of Thomas of the same, m. 1688, Elizabeth Turner, perhaps d. of Edward of the same, had Thomas, b. 1692; Abigail, 1694; and Elizabeth 1695. His w. d. this yr. and he m. 1696, Mary Rowell, had Mary, 1697, wh. d. at 16 yrs.; Stephen, 1699; James, 1700; Eiiz. 1702; Eunice, 1704; Patience 1707; and Deborah, 1708, wh. d. at 5 yrs.; and he d. 24 Sept. 1727. Farmer had giv. one of this baptismal name at Dorchester, [[212]] but I am confident that it was a mistak. by his informer for Millet. WILLIAM, Ipswich 1648, prob. rem. with earliest sett. to Northampton, by w. Patience had Mary; Rebecca, d. young; Patience, b. 15 Sept. 1657; William, 3O Nov. 1668, Feb. 1662; Ebenezer, 7 June 1664; Mehitable, 10 July 1666; Thankful, 25 Apr. 1669; and Abraham, 20 Jan. 1672, was freem. 1690; and d. 15 July 1690. His will was of 1668, and his wid. d. 16 Mar. 1716, quite aged. Mercy m. 1687, John Fowler of Westfield, WILLIAM, Wethersfield, E. side of the riv. wh. bec. Glastonbury, s. of the preced. was a tanner, had decent est. of £348. and d. 1705, leav. William, aged 11; John, 4; Jonathan, 1; and three ds. of wh. with ret. of the inv. the names and ages appear, Mary, 8; Martha, 7; and Sarah, 6; all 1iv. in 1721, to claim portion as heirs of their gr.f. of cert. wild lds. in Northfield. Chapin, 192, has a slight error; in giv. him a br. John. For his w.'s name, that is not ment. at Glastonbury, we may succeed in the rec. of Saybrook, by find. that he m. 19 Apr. 1693, Mary Bushnell, I suppose d. of John, and there had William, b. 9 Feb. foll. Seven of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. ten at Yale, and fifteen at other N. E. coll. MILLERD, MILLARD, or MILWARD, BENJAMIN, JOSEPH, ROBERT, and SAMUEL, were of Rehoboth 1690. THOMAS, Gloucester, a fisherman, or mariner, was selectman 1642, rem. to Newbury, had Ann, perhaps b. there in Nov. of that yr.; Rebecca; and Elizabeth aft. but did not sell his est. at G. bef. 1652. He made his will 30 Aug. 1653, and d. 2 days aft. at Boston. I think his d. Rebecca m. 27 May 1656, at Boston, Thomas Thorpe. Coffin supposes he was that mate of the Hector, ment. in Winthrop I. 187; but I doubt it. W. Ann, and ch. Rebecca and Elizabeth under 18 yrs. are ment. in the will. MILLET, JOHN, Gloucester, s. of Thomas of the same, m. 3 July 1663, Sarah Leach, had John, b. 23 Oct. 1665, d. soon; Hannah, 9 Mar. 1667; John, again, 22 Apr. 1669; Thomas, 23 Nov. 1671; Sarah, 1 July 1674, d. next yr. Andrew, 9 May 1676, d. in few days; and Elizabeth 24 Oct. 1677; and he d. 3 Nov. 1678, leav. wid. Sarah. NATHANIEL, Gloucester, br. of the preced. m. 3 May 1670, Ann, d. of Andrew Lester, had Mary, b. 29 June 1671, d. young; Daniel, 31 July 1673, d. next day; Thomas, 9 Mar. 1675; Nathaniel, 2 Mar. 1677; Abigail, 12 Oct. 1679; Andrew, 6 July 1681; beside 5 more, of wh. one was Nathan, b. 1685. His w. d. 9 Mar. 1718, and he d. 7 Nov. 1719. RICHARD, prob. came in the fleet with Winthrop but no more of him is kn. than that he req. adm. 19 Oct. 1630, when his name is spelled Myllett, and was sw. freem. 11 June 1633. THOMAS, Dorchester, came in the Elizabeth, from London, 1635, aged 30, with w. Mary, 29, and ch.Thomas, 2; had here, John, 8 July 1638; Jonathan, 27 July 1638, d. next mo.; Mary, 21 Aug. 1639; and Mehitable, 14 Mar. 1642; Nathaniel, 1647; perhaps also [[213]] Bethia, wh. m. 3 Aug. 1666, Moses Eyres or Ayres (as Mr. Drake, in Geneal. Reg. V. 402, says), and d. 15 Apr. 1669. He was freem. 17 May 1637, and his w. m. in Eng. was d. of John Greenoway. In 1642 he rem. to Gloucester, and aft. sev. yrs. to Brookfield, there d. 1676, as did his wid. 1682. Farmer had. giv. the two s. b. at D. to a suppositit. Miller; but more curious was the error of Dagget (who usually is very scrupulous in correctness), for his Hist. of Attleborough gives all the childr. of Millet from our rec. to Willett, the capt. of Rehoboth, who was first mayor of New York, aft. its conq. As the mistake had not then been detected, Bliss foll. it in his Hist. of Rohoboth. THOMAS, Gloucester, s. of the preced. m. 21 May 1655, Mary, d. of Sylvester Eveleth, wh. d. 2 July 1687, perhaps without hav. ch. and he next m. Abigail, wid. of Isaac Eveleth, d. of John Coit, and d. 18 June 1707. MILLING, SIMON, Watertown, an old man, had five ch. Simon, Richard, Mary, James, and John, all bapt. Dec. 1686; but it is not told who was their mo. Perhaps she was d. and he had late. rem. thither, wh. conjeet. may be favor. by the ment. of bapt. of a young man, Thomas M. on 17 Oct. preced. Rare will be the occur. of such a name. MILLINGTON, JOHN, Windsor, m. 1668, Sarah Smith, rem. to Suffield, there had John, b. 1675; Henry, 1679; prob. others. His s. John was at Coventry 1716 and aft. MILLS, BENJAMIN, Dedham 1677, had liv. there, I suppose, more than 30 yrs. but nothing definite can be found. EDWARD, Boston, adm. to be inhab. 1645. EDWARD, Dorchester, s. of. John of Braintree, m. Mehitable, d. of Stephen Minot, wid. of the younger Henry Messinger, wh. d. 16 Aug. 1690, aged 25 had Stephen. He taught the sch. in D. fr. 1687 to 92, and aft. a sch. in Boston, partly unde the patronage of the London Soc. for propagat. the Gospel, and d. 7 Nov. 1732. JAMES, Lynn, may have come from Southold, L. I. where in 1663, was one of this name, m. 1 Apr. 1671, Martha, d. of Hugh Alley, had Martha, b. 14 June 1672; James, 9 Sept. 1674, d. young; Sarah, 27 Feb. 1676; James, again, 11 Oct. 1678; and Dorothy, 21 Apr. 1681. Lewis calls him the first perman. inhab. at Nahant. JOHN, Boston, came prob. in the fleet with Winthrop for among the memb. of the first ch. his name is No. 33, and his w. Susanna next, desir. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was sw. 6 Mar. 1632. His ds. Joy, and Recompense, were bapt. in Oct. 1630, being the first on our ch. rec.; John, 3 June 1632; Jonathan, 30 Aug. 1635; and James, 3 June 1638. Vinton, 341, gives him, also, Susanna, b. in Eng. and Mary b. a. 1640, acc. Vinton; but I think she must be count. bef. 1630, and b. in Eng. He soon rem. to Braintree, and with w. was recom. 5 Dec. 1641, to the ch. there, was town clk. 1653. Susanna, his w. d. 10 Dec. 1675, in her 80th yr. He made his [[214]] will 12 Jan. 1678, pro. 10 Sept. foll in wh. he names ds. Mary Hawkins and Susanna Dawes, and his only s. John is charged to bring up one of his s. unto learning, that he may be fit for the min. wh. was, he says, the employm. of my predecess. to 3d if not 4th generat. The gr.s. Edward, H. C. 1685, seems not to have obeyed the will of his ancest. tho. he liv. to 1732; but perhaps the fourth generat. was more regardful, at least Jonathan, H. C. 1723, was a min. JOHN, Searborough, had John, James, Sarah, and Mary, who were all charg. with neglect of public worship; and Sarah's defence subject. her to stripes. JOHN, Braintree, s. of the first John, m. 26 Apr. 1653, Elizabeth Shove, prob. sis. of Rev. George, who d. 18 Aug. 1711, in 81st yr. had Elizabeth b. 5 Mar. or 1 July (as the first numeral is count. for mo. or for day) by differ. read. 1654; Sarah, 9 June 1656, John, 13 Apr. 1660; Jonathan, 9 Sept. 1662; Edward, 29 June 1665, H. C. 1685; Joanna or Susanna, 12 Mar. 1668, d. next yr.; Mary, 1 Apr. 1670; Nathaniel, 22 Apr. 1672; and Susanna, 23 Sept. 1676. His s. John and Nathaniel liv. at B. and both had fams. There was a John Mills, hav. fam. at Dedham 1676, perhaps br. of Benjamin. JOHN, of Boston, whose will of 22 Oct. 1651 is abstr. in Geneal. Reg. lV. 28, tho. his inv. shows a good amount of prop. was prob. only a transient trader; at least, he names no w. or ch. but aft. a few trifling gifts, directs the bulk of the est. to go to his friends in the Canaries. JOHN, Simsbury, s. of Simon the sec. by w. Sarah had John, b. a. 1690; Joseph, and Benjamin, a 1694; and Sarah, a. 1696; and he d. 11 Mar. 1698. JOSEPH, Kittery, call. a planter. PETER, Windsor, in a tradit. of very light esteem, prob. a modern excercise of it, said to have come from Holland, a tailor, with the name of Van Molyn (turn. into Eng. Mills), when relations betw. the two nations had long been hostile, strange. said to have been b. so late as 1666, m. bef. 1672, Dorcas, d. of Edward Messenger, wh. d. 18 May, 1688, had Peter, and prob. other ch. perhaps Samuel, certain. Ebenezer, wh. d. 8 Feb. 1687; Return, d. 12 July 1689; and Eleazer, d. 1698, all prob. young, but date of b. of neither is seen, and m. 10 Dec. 1691, a sec. w. Jane Warren, or Fannin, Hartford, as ano. statem. is; and he d. 12 Apr. 1702. Peter, Windsor, s. of the preced. m. 21 July 1692, Joan Porter, had Pelathia, b. 27 Apr. 1693, wh. was a lawyer; Gideon, 3 Feb. 1695, d. soon; Jedeaiah, 23 May 1697, Y. C. 1722; Peter, 22 Apr. 1700, d. soon, and Peter, again, 12 Apr. 1701; Ann, 1703; John, 1706; David, 1709; Ebenezer, 1712; and Gideon, again, 15 Aug. 1715, Y. C. 1737. But Stiles omits, 704, the two last, as well as Ann, and varies in John and David. RICHARD, Stratford, and aft. 1653, at Stamford, rem. 1663 to West Chester. ROBERT, Kittery, perhaps br. of Joseph, d. 1647, leav. w. Dorothy, wh. m. John Harker of York, and four ch. SAMUEL, Windsor, m. 18 Oct. 1639, w. Joanna, wh. d. 5 July 1639, and he d. 19 [[215]] May 1661. But I fear the same incid. may be ascrib. to Simon or Simeon by easy confus. of names. SAMUEL, Dedham 1642, had w. Frances, and ch. Samuel, bapt. 29 Mar. 1646, d. next mo.; Benjamin, 13 Apr. 1651; Elizabeth 5 Dec. 1632; and Rebecca, 17 May 1657; yet the parents of this last, not being ment. at the time, on ch. rec. she may have been d. of Benjamin Miles, whose surname is not unfrequent. giv. as MILLS. SAMUEL, Stratford 1668, rem. to L. I. and d. 1685, at Southhampton. SIMON, Windsor 1639, m. that yr. prob. sec. w. Joan, wh. d. childless, July 1659. Date of his d. is unkn. SIMON, Windsor, perhaps s. of the preced. b. in Eng. tho. he may possib. be the same, but not likely, m. 23 Feb. 1660, Mary, d. of William Buell, had Samnel and Simon, tw. b. 23 Apr. 1661, both d. next mo. Mary, 8 Dec. 1662; Hannah, 1665; Simon, again, 1 May 1667; John, 2 Jan. 1669; Sarah, 16 Sept. 1670; rem. to Simsbury, and had Abigail, 1672; Elizabeth 1674, Prudence, 1676; and Simon, again, 1678. The first two and the fourth ch. d. bef. him, and he d. 6 July, 1683. Both the s. liv. at Simsbury. THOMAS, Wells, freem. 1653, was constab1e 1664. Three of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. eighteen at Yale, and two at other N. E. coll. MILNER, MICHAEL, Lynn, came in the James, from London, 1635, aged 23, rem. to L.I. 1640, says Lewis.

Coffin affords no derivat. of this person, and I indulge the conject. that the name is identic. with the last preced. and possib. that man was f. of this.

JOHN, Stratford 1659, eldest s. of Thomas of [[216]] New London; wh. the Commissnrs. of the Unit. Col. of N. E. desir. in 1654, to have qualif. at Eastford to be an instruct. of the natives, was town clk. of S. and rep. 1667 and 76, and of the new town of Woodbury very many yrs; m. 19 Oct. 1658, Elizabeth d. of Richard Booth, had John, b. 9 Sept. 1659; Thomas, 29 May 1662; Hannah, 2 Aug. 1664; Elizabeth 16 Jan. 1667; Grace, 20 Sept. 1670; Joseph, 4 Mar. 1673; Ephraim, 24 Oct. 1675; Sarah, 19 June 1678; Abigail, 6 Feb. 1681; and Joanna, bapt.

They were Joseph, b. 19 Sept. 1669; Mary, 6 Oct. 1671; Benjamin, 25 June 1676; Deborah, and Sarah, perhaps tw. bapt. 30 Mar. 1679; Christopher; Joanna; Prudence; and Bridget; but I doubt sev. dates of the fam. geneal. and I gain neither dates of m. nor d. of sec. w. nor of his d. Prob. he and John were of Woodbury 1690. MANASSEH, New London, 1671, seventh s. of Thomas of the same, said to be the first male white, b. in that town, rem. to Stonington, m. 26 Sept. 1670, Lydia Moore, whose f. is not kn. had Hannah, b. 3 Nov. 1677; and Thomas, 1683, was deac. and d. 29 Apr. 1728, aged 81. SAMUEL, youngest s. of Thomas, m. 1681, Mary Lord, and d. next yr. THOMAS, Charlestown, 1632, s. of William of Chew Magna, in Co. Somerset, one of the found. of the ch. in Frothingham, 70, as well as Budington, 184, said to be dism. for that purpose from Boston ch. 14 Oct. of that yr. but tho. the rec. at C. supports them, his name is not in the list of Boston mem. in the surv. copy of our first ch.; freem. 4 Mar. 1634, rem. to Saybrook, thence to New London soon aft. 1645, d. m. 23 Apr. 1634, Grace, eldest d. of Walter Palmer, had sev. ch. but not all, bef. rem.

He was a very valua. man, rep. 1650 and 1, perhaps 65, 70, and 3, for Stonington, but I doubt, some of the latter honors belong to his s. of the same name, and prob. Hinman, who makes him town clk. of Woodbury for 30 yrs. from 1674, makes the same mistake in pp. 54, 153, and 222. The f. was the oldest gr.stone at Stonington shows, d. 23 Oct. 1690, aged 83; and his w. d. the same yr. Hannah, the only d. that liv. to mid. age, m. 1677, Thomas Avery.

Coffin says he was b. 1612, but it would have better pleased us to learn the time of his d. JAMES, Newbury, of the preced. perhaps, yet not so indicat. by Coffin, who says, by w. Hannah he had Benjamin, b. 16 Apr. 1683; James, 6 July 1684; but in the former line he had him 16 Apr. 1683; and John, 10 Sept. 1686. John, Charlestown, by w. Judith, unless this be, as I suspect, error for Hopestill, had Hopestill, b. 20 Feb. 1643; Benjamin, 22 June. 1644; and, perhaps, others. By sec. w. Hopestill (uncle's it be the first, as I suspect, for Hopestill M. is adm. of the ch. in Charlestown, 10 Sept. 1644) he had Sarah, 1 May 1657; Mercy, 3 Dec. 1658; and Abigail, b. 17 Feb. 1661. His d.

That very careful collector, p. 96, refers to Penhallow: for his extract; but in that writer I do not discov. the passage. Yet Homer, in his Hist. of N. had print. the same passage, 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. V. 273. It is curious, that both the other sufferers at G. on that day, were of N. I suppose they were part of a garrison at G. But this John d. 11 July 1706, and made his will 29 Apr. preced.

Cothren, 634, names four s. Matthew, John, Jonathan, and; Abraham, and tho. the d. of the f. name of the mo. or b. of either of the four is sought in vain, he permits us to infer that the two ment. in 1665 may have been Abraham and Matthew, but that John was older than Abraham. In Nov. 1675 he was entrust. by the Council of war with import. affairs. EDWARD, Hingham, came in the Diligent, 1638, but we kn. no more of him, exc. that he was from Old Hingham.

He d. 9 July 1668, in the "forty-third yr. of his age," says the Magnalia, IV.184, yet as Mather could not avoid [[221]] an occassion of blunder, even for so famous a man, whom he calls matchless, he had on p. 166 of the same Book, told us he was b. 1624, Halifax, in the W. riding of Yorksh. In 1662, he, with Gookin, were made first licensers of the press in Mass. He had good est. the inv. being L786,17,9. Ever writer who has ment. the famous men of the early days of our country, has told of Mitchell, and the oversight of call. his f.

He was in 1639 at Wethersfield a short time, and next yr. made their town clk. but soon went to Stamford, and in 1643, with Rev. Richard Denton, to Hempstead, L.

I find nothing but his insert. in list of freem. 1666. JOHN, Boston, shipwright, d. in Virginia, and admin. was giv. 15 Jan. 1683, to his wid. Mary. JOHN, Windsor, only s. of John of the same, m. 21 Sept. 1664, Hannah, d. of Edward Goffe of Cambridge, had John, b. 26 June 1665; Thomas, 25 July 1667; Samuel, 24 Dec. 1669; Nathaniel, 20 Sept. 1672; Edward, 2 Mar. 1675; and Josiah and Joseph, tw. 5 July 1679. His w. Hannah .d 4 Apr. 1657; and he m. 17 Dec. 1701, Martha Flamsworth, unless Mr. Stiles misspell. the name, had Martha, 24 Sept. 1705; and d. 21 June, 1718. JOHN, Lancaster, perhaps of Boston, and freem. 1669, was rep. 1689 and 90, all. sen. JOHN, Boston, by w. Lydia had Sarah, b. 19 July 1673; Hannah, 1675, d. soon; Hannah, again, 25 July 1676; John, Feb. 1678; Thomas, 26 Nov. 1679; Catharine, 5 Feb. 1681; Rachel, Feb. 1682; Francis, Nov. 1684; Catharine, again Mar. 1686, and Francis, again, 8 Apr. 1687. He was, perhaps, the freem. of 1671, and d. 1693. He was a brewer, had good est. of wh. admin. was. giv. to his w. Lydia, 13 July. JOHN, Lynn, m. 21 July 1673, Susanna, perhaps d. of Thomas Marshall, and Thomas, b. 20 Apr. 1674; John, 10 Feb. 1679; Richard, 22 Aug. 1680; and Susanna, 4 Mar. 1685. JOHN, Lancaster, jun. rep. 1689, perhaps s. of him who was rep. aft. JOHN, Lynn, freem. 1691. One other John, wh. came in the Susan and Ellen 1635, from London, aged 41, I am unable to dispose of. JONATHAN, Boston, youngest s. of Mrs. Ann, wid. of William Hibbins, the Assit. was, I infer, only tempo. resid. here, for the will of his mo. 16 June 1656, shortly before her execut. for the preposterous crime of witchcraft wh. is to be seen. in Geneal. Reg. VI.287,8, speaks of him and his brs. John, and Joseph, as if all were in Eng. and in the codic. of 19th of the same, acknowledg. "the more than ordinary affection and pains 'of this one,' in the time of my distress," as he had arriv. to attend the results of the exercrable fanaticism. She was prob. the richest person ever hanged in this part and the prejudice against witches long slumbered. JOSEPH, Boston, m. 21 May 1656, Ruth Starr, had Joseph, b. 7 Mar. 1658. JOSEPH, Sudbury, m. Lydia, d. of John Maynard. MILES, Milford 1646 rem. as early at least as 1657, to New London, freem. 1663, call. OLD in 1680, left descend. thro. d. Miriam, w. of John Willey; beside Abel, bef. ment. RICHARD, Plymouth, brot. by Elder Brewster, with a br. both as serv. in the Mayflower, 1620, and the br. d. in few wks.; at the div. of cattle 1627, when the name of every man, woman, and [[230]] ch. is giv. he was still assort. with Elder Brewster; but by Gov. Bradford's Hist. 451, we are taught that he. m. and in 1651 had four or five ch. liv. as if he had lost one or more. It is vain to regret, that the Gov. did not mention the names of the ch. or the mo. Perhaps he rem. to one of the newer settlem. for Winsor's Duxbury tells that he sold his land 1637, and I am convinc. aft. long search that he is the Richard by Deane, in Hist; of Scituate, call. Mann, as the other four passeng. with this bapt. name of Richard, were all then adult. See Mann. RICHARD, Cape Porpoise. now Kennebunk, had gr. of 400 acres in 1647, and less than 20 yrs. aft. was of Scarborough, had w. Bridget, became pauper 1679, and d. 1681. See Southgate,77. RICHARD, Salem 1642, to wh. says Felt, was made gr. of land 1638, freem 28 Feb. 1643, tho. this man may have come in the Blessing, from London 1635, aged 20. He, or perhaps a s. of the same name, in a town office there, was liv. 1682; and in 1668 his name, with that of Richard jun. is sign. to the petitn. against imposts. He was a capt. and his w. d. 5 Oct. 1686. RICHARD, Lynn, by w. Alice, wh. d. 29 May 1661, had Mary, b. 15 Jan. preced. and he m. 6 Nov. 1662 Elizabeth Wildes. ROBERT, Boston 1651, tailor, rem. next yr. ROBERT, Boston, by w. Ann had Susanna, b. 6 Aug. 1686. SAMUEL, Salem, freem. 6 Mar. 1632, perhaps, therefore, came in Nov. preced. in the Lion, had Samuel, bapt. 23 Dec. 1636; and Remember, 9 Dec. 1638. SAMUEL, Boston prob. s. of Jeremy, m. 1 May 1660, Abigail, d. of Capt. Thomas Hawkins, had Mary, b. 2 May 1661; he d. in short time, and his wid. m. Thomas Kellond, and 3d h. Hon. John Foster. SAMUEL, Boston, by w. Naomi had Francis, b. 15 July 1670; and Edward, 5 July 1674. SAMUEL, Lynn, had Mary, b early in June 1676, d. soon; Rebecca, 9 Nov. 1677, d. soon; Abigail, 26 Sept. 1678; and Ephraim, 17 June 1681; was freem. 1691. THOMAS, Dorchester, came in the Mary and John 1630, and prob. was br. of John of the same, freem. 18 May 1631, rem. 1635 or 6 to Windsor, perhaps rem. to Southold, L. I. where was one of this name 1662. THOMAS, Portsmouth, one of the first sett. sent by John Mason, the patentee, 1631. THOMAS, Salem 1636, prob. s. of Thomas, to whose wid. Ann, a midwife, was next yr. gr. of ld. made, by w. Martha had Thomas, and Martha, both apt. 21 Oct. 1639, soon aft. the parents were rec. of the ch.; Benjamin, 2 Aug. 1640; Nathaniel, 3 July 1642; Hannah, 9 Dec. 1644; Elizabeth 31. Jan. 1647; Jonathan, 3 June 1649; and Mary, 15 Dec. 1650; was freem. 27 Dec. 1642, and in few yrs. rem. THOMAS, Boston, mariner, m. at Cambridge, 9 Nov. 1653, Sarah Hodges, had Sarah, b. 26 Apr. 1655, d. next yr.; Sarah, again, 5 May 1660; Hannah, 26 Apr. 1662; Rachel, 25 May 1664; Elizabeth 27 Apr. 1667; and Thomas, 2 Sept. 1669, d. 1690. THOMAS, Roxbury, freem. 1690, says the. Col. rec. but I have some doubt. WILLIAM, [[231]] Salem, 1639 have been of Ipswich 1665, and d. 1671. WILLIAM, Exeter 1645, was, says Farmer, a rep. in the assemb. of N. H. WILLIAM, York 1652, when he subm. to the Mass. governm. to 1680, when he took the o. of alleg. to his Majesty. WILLIAM, Westerly 1669, may be the same, who at Norwich m. Aug. 16 Mary, wid. of Thomas Howard, wh. was k. at the battle of Philp's war, 19 Dec. 1675, d. of William Wellman, had Elizabeth b. 20 July 1678; Experience, 12 May 1680; Martha, 22 Feb. 1682; Joshua, 1683; William, 1685; and Abigail, 1687. His w. d. 3 Apr. 1700, and he m. 17 July foll. Mary, wid. of Joshua Allen of Windham, wh. d. 18 Sept. 1727; and he m. 10 June 1728, Tamison Simmons, and d. Apr. 1729. WILLIAM, Amesbury 1670, a milit. officer, wh. m. as I presume, 7 Oct. 1673, Mary Veazie, perhaps d. of George of Dover. Seven of this name had, in 1829, been gr. at Harv. six at Yale, six at Dart. and twelve at other N. E. coll. MOORES, EDMUND, Newbury, Co. says, came 1640, aged 26, by w. Ann, wh. d. 7 June 1676, had Martha, b. 12 Dec. 1643; Jonathan, 23 Apr. 1646; Mary, 30 Nov. 1648, Edmund, wh. d. 8 Nov. 1656; Richard, 3 Nov. 1653; and Sarah, 1 Apr. 1661. EDMUND, Newbury, call. jun. perhaps not s. of the preced. m. 3 Jan. 1667, Sarah Cooper, had Edmund, b. Dec. foll. prob. d. young; Sarah, 9 Dec. 1681; Mark, 9 Feb. 1689; Martha, 20 Aug. 1691; and Edmund, again, 3 Apr. 1693. JONATHAN, Newbury, s. of first Edmund, m. as Coffin says, 10 May 1670 [1680?], Constance Langhorne, had Jonathan, b. 3 Apr. 1681; Richard, 24 July 1683; Samuel, 20 Feb. 1686; Thomas, 6 Nov. 1688, and Dorothy, 8 Dec. 1690. MATTHEW, Newbury, m. 27 Mar. 1662, Sarah Savory, had Sarah, b. 15 Dec. 1663; and William, 10 Feb. 1666; but an intermed. William was b. to wh. Coffin assigns impossib. date. SAMUEL, Newbury, m. 3 May 1653, Hannah, Plummer, wh. d. 8 Dec. 1654, and he m. 12 Dec. 1656, May Ilsley, d. of William of the same. MORE. See Moore. HENRY, Dorchester 1675, had supplied a substit. in the comp. of capt. Johnson, Dec. of that yr. as may be read in the list, print. in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 242, tho. his name is copied Mare. Many of the fam. have the name, as it were, interchangeable; the same person on one page of the rec. spelling each way. MOREHOUSE, or MOOREHOUSE, John, Fairfield, ensign in 1676. JONATHAN, Fairfield, m. Mary, d. of Edward Wilson of the same, bef. 1684. SAMUEL, Fairfield, perhaps s. of Thomas, freem. 1664, liv. 1670. THOMAS, Wethersfield 1640, perhaps was at Stamford next yr. but in 1653 at Fairfield. MORFIELD, or MOORFIELD, JOHN, Hingham, came in the Diligent, 1638, from Hingham. [[232]] MORELL, WILLIAM came in Sept. 1623, with Robert Gorges, sat down at Weymouth, but soon went to Plymouth, aft. Gorges left him, and home within a yr. His verses, Latin and translat. into Eng. show he was a fair scholar; and his prudence was pro. by not producing, the ecclesiast. commission he had to rule on this side of the water. MOREY, BENJAMIN, Wickford 1674, was some relat. prob. of Isaac Heath of Roxbury, who names Mary and Benjamin his will of Jan. 1661. GEORGE, Duxbury 1640, d. next yr. may be the passeng. 1635, from London, aged 23, by the Truelove. By the Col. Ct. Jan. 1641, this strange order was pass. that Thomas Roberts of Duxbury Òshall lodge no more with George M. a diseased person.Ó GEORGE, Bristol, m. 21 Dec. 1683, Hannah Lewis, had John, b. 3 Oct. 1684; Mary, 24 Mar. 1688; Sarah, 4 Mar. 1691; Hannah, 18 May 1694; George, 31 Aug. 1696; all bapt. 13 June 1697; Martha, 12 Mar. bapt. 23 Apr. 1699; Abigail, 27 Feb. bapt. 21 June 1702; Benjamin, 18 Apr. bapt. 17 June 1705; and Thomas, 1 Jan. bapt. 20 Mar. 1709.

JOHN, came in the Blessing, 1635, aged 19, from London, but I kn. no more of him. JOHN, Bristol, perhaps br. of the sec. George, by w. Hannah had Hannah, b. 1 Feb. 1687, wh. d. in few wks.

Mary had Bethia, Mehitable; Roger, b. 8 May 1649; Thomas, 19 July 1632; and Hannah, 28 Sept. 1656; and he d. 5 Jan. 1668. ROGER, may have liv. at Milton, and, perhaps m. Mary, d. of John Johnson, and had Abigail, bapt. at Roxbury, in her mo.'s right, 8 Aug. 1680. THOMAS, Roxbury, m. 6 Sept. 1673, Susanna, d. of the sec. Abraham Newell, had Thomas, b.

He was freem. 1685, and d. 25 Dec. 1717; but I do not find. the date of d. w. Abigail m. Apr. 1697, Timothy Harris. MORGAN, BENNETT, Plymouth, came in the Fortune, 1621, but he had not sh. in the of cattle 1627, and so we may be sure he was gone, but whither is unkn. DAVID, Springfield, s. of Miles, freem. 1690, d. 1731, leav. Pelatiah, David, John, Ebenezer, Benjamin, and Mary. FRANCIS, Kittery 1664, was next yr. appoint. admor. on the gr. est. of capt. John Mitchell. ISAAC, Springfield, 1678, br. of David, was in the Falls fight in Philip's war, rem. to Enfield, d. 1706, hav. had five ch. of wh. Abigail alone surv.

JAMES, New London, s. of the preced. was adm. freem. 1669, d. 8 Dec. 1671. JAMES, Boston, had David b. 10 Nov. 1676; and Jonathan, 19 [[233]] Nov. 1680, may have serv. in Moseley's mp. Dec. 1651, perhaps, was not that JAMES, of Boston, whose story is in the Magnalia, book VI. 40-43, execut. for murder, 11 Mar. 1686. JOHN, New London, s. of the first James, m. 16 Nov. 1660, Rachel, d. of John Deming, had, says Miss Caulkins, seven ch. by her, and six more by sec. w.

Hall finds his name in 1656 at Norwalk; and a wid. was propr. 1655, as by his valua. Hist. but no clue is kn. to the name of her h. or the time of his d. RICHARD, Dover 1659, was prob. of Exeter 1684. ROBERT, Saco 1636, may be he of Kennebeck 1665, nam.in Sullivan, 287. ROBERT, Salem 1637, adm. of the ch. 1650, and on 23 June of that yr. had bapt. Samuel, Luke, Joseph, and Benjamin, and on 15 Dec. foll. Robert; Bethia, 29 1653; and Aaron, 24 May 1663; was one of the found. of the ch. at Beverly 1667.

MORLEY, JOHN, Braintree, freem. 1645, rem. 1658 to Charlestown, he and his w. being rec. into this ch. 29 Aug. of that yr. there d. 24 Jan. 1661; and his wid. Constant, wh. was first of the ch. at Dorchester, d. 1669. Yet Frothingham, 80, names her as wid. inhab. of 1631, tho. perhaps he means Catharine, wh. may have been his mo. in the will of Morley, made a week bef. his d. referred to as then dec. He also names in it sis. Ann Farmer. He gave to his wid. Constant, all his est. in N. E. and his lds. and tenem. at Cheshunt, in Co. Herts, O. E. In her will is more instruct. for the genealog. as she rememb. her br. Joye (perhaps meaning Joseph) Starr, her sis. Ann Farmer, her sis. Suretrust [[234]] Rous, her cous. i. e. neph. John Starr. sen. her cous. Mercy Swett, her cous. Simon Eyre, and gives to cous. Elizabeth w. of John Ferniside, and Elizabeth w. of Joshua Edmunds, but the gr. residue of her est. to William and Elizabeth childr. of said Elizabeth Edmunds. No doubt, she was sis. of the first Comfort Starr. THOMAS, Westfield. See Marlo. MORRALL, PETER, Salem, m. 27 Sept. 1675, Mary Butler, both were from Isle of Jersey. MORRIL, ABRAHAM, Cambridge 1632, perhaps came in the Lion, with br. Isaac, ar. co. 1638, rem. with orig. props. to Salisbury, where, in 1650, only four men were tax. higher, d. at Roxbury, on a visit, June 1662.

Charlestown, freem. 1682, of wh. it is very vexatious to be unable to tell more than that he was prob. br. of the first Abraham. ISAAC, Salisbury, s. of Abraham the first, perhaps had two ws. by Phebe, had Abraham, b. 22 Aug. 1671 and Isaac, by Susanna, had Mary, 1 Feb. 1674; Sarah, 29 May 1675; Jacob, 25 May 1677; Rachel, 18 Feb. 1682, d. soon; Daniel, 8 Feb. 1683; Jemima, 9 Oct. 1685; Mary, again, 10 Sept. 1689; and Rachel, 24 Aug. 1692.

Six of this name had, in 1834, gr. at Harv. and four at other N. E. coll. Early this is call. Morrell, in town rec. Murrells. MORRIS, DANIEL, Hampton 1640. DORMAN, Boston, by w. Elinor had Daniel b. 13 Feb. 1672; and Honor, 1 Apr. 1674. EDMUND, came in the Confidence, 1638, from Southampton. He was a carpenter, of Dorsetsh. perhaps the parish of Kington Magna, near Shaftesbury, but I hear nothing later of him. EDWARD, Roxbury, m. 29 Nov. 1655, Grace Burr, but; in Boston rec. as cop. in Geneal. Reg. XI. 201, the name is giv. Bett, wh. seems less likely to be correct surname, had Isaac, b. 16 Sept. 1656, bapt. 19 Sept. 1658; Edward, bapt. 13 Mar. 1659; Grace, 17 Feb. 1661; Ebenezer, b. 14, bapt. 17 Apr. 1664, Elizabeth bapt. 26 Mar. 1666; Margaret, 27 Sept. 1668; Samuel, 9 Apr. 1671; and Martha, 3 Jan. 1675; was rep. 1678 and to 1686.

RICE, Charlestown, by w. Esther had Hannah, bapt. 29 Nov. 1634; and Esther, b. 6, bapt. 14 Mar. 1641, perhaps more, and d. 5 Apr. 1647. But the name appears Morus in Geneal. Reg.IX. 170. RICHARD, Boston 1630, came prob. in the fleet with Winthrop as he and w. Lenora were very early of the ch. Nos. 64 and 5, and he was made freem. 18 May 1631 with the title of serj. and so perhaps a hired officer, bec. lieut. at Roxbury soon aft. and was rep. 1635, ar. co. 1637, but favoring the cause of Rev. John Wheelwright, was disarm. and with that heresiarch went to Exeter, 1638. The name is first on our ch. rec. writ. Maurice, and when, 6 Jan. 1639, dismiss. was gr. to Wheelwright and eight others, includ. him, "unto the ch. of Christ. at the falls of Paschiataqua, if they be rightly gathered and ordered," the spelling is Morrys. It is wrong in Drake's diligent Hist. 224, as it was first in Belknap, wh. Farmer did not correct. RICHARD, Portsmouth, R. I. 1643, then among the freem. 1655, seems to be the same as preced. ROBERT, Rehoboth 1640, d. bef. 1647. Baylies, II. 200, 203. ROBERT, Hartford, br. of John, was divorc. from w. had no ch. d. 19 Nov. 1684. giv. est. to relat.

His will, of 11 July preced. gives est. to the ds. and John, Eleazer, and Joseph, wh. were props. 1685. Hannah m. 1662, Thomas Lupton. THOMAS, Boston, of wh. no more is kn. than that he d. quite early, for his will was on p. 18 now missing of our first vol. of Pro. Rec. if we may trust the index. THOMAS, Casco 1652, perhaps next yr. at Dover. WILLIAM, Portsmouth, R. I. 1655, was perhaps, br. of Richard, may have liv. at Westerly. WILLIAM, Charlestown, 1658, perhaps of Boston, there by w.

MORSE, ABRAHAM, Newbury, s. of Robert, b. perhaps in Eng. by his w. Elizabeth bef. he left Marlborough, in Wilts, if his f. may be presum. br. of Anthony, rem. it is said, to New Jersey. ANTHONY, Newbury, a shoemaker of Marlborough, Wiltsh. arr. at Boston, 3 June 1635, in the James from Southampton, said to have been b. 9 May 1606, freem. 25 May 1636, by w.

Genealog. adds Mary, prob. but I doubt; Coffin gives him also, Joseph, John, and Peter; yet he has confus. the marriages and deaths of f. and s. and has prob. done the same with ch. He was freem. 2 May 1636, had a sec. w. Ann, wh. d. 9 Mar. 1680, and he d. 12 Oct. 1686. Sarah m. 24 June 1663, Amos Stickney; and Esther m. 2 Feb. 1669, Robert Holmes.

His orig. parchm. deed, convey. with assent of w. Lydia, to John: Hull, part of his est. in M. 7 June 1666, was in my poss. and giv. to my friend Nathaniel I. Bowditch, Esq. and his last [[238]] resid. was in Sherborn, where he d. 1688, and wid. d. 29 Jan. 1691, aged 70 at Sherborn.

JOHN, Dedham, s. of Samuel went home and came back in the Speedwell, July 1656, aged 40; and was the person whose d. is ment. 26 May 1657. It has caus. some confus. and much uncert. that the John of Dedham and he of Boston, both tailors, should both have gone home so near. in the same yr. both die near the same time, but one [which?] return. to die on our side of the water; yet it may be overcome by aid of the wills. In that ship, at that time, came the first Quakers to our country. JOHN, Ipswich, s. of Joseph first of the same, by w.

He was freem. 1669, serv. as a commissary in Philip's war, and d. says the Genealog. 25 Oct. 1678, but in the Appendix makes erron. that event on the same day of next yr. leav. wid.

He d. 28 Mar. 1691, says Coffin; but the Geneal. wh. agrees with C. that his d. 10 Apr. 1691, gives him sec. w. Mary. JOSHUA, came to R. says the Geneal. and serv. as chaplain in King William's war with the French, had gr. the same name, wh. was a preach. NATHANIEL, Sheborn, s. of Daniel, first of the name, by w.

OBADIAH, Sherborn, eldest br. of the preced. freem. 1672 or being so ent. in ea. yr. m. Martha Johnson, had only Obadiah, wh. d. young, was first clk. of the town, and deac. d. 4 Mar. 1704, and his wid. d. 1714. An OBADIAH, among rem. 1674, is call. of Portsmouth in the rec. but I fear, he can have no more told of him, but that in Feb. 1690, with majority N. H. people, he desir. jurisdict. of Mass. PETER, Newbury, br. of the first Anthony, prob. went with others to N. J. where they obtain. large gr. of ld. ROBERT, Boston, br. of the first Anthony, brot. from Eng. w. Elizabeth and prob. s.

J. SAMUEL, Dedham, f. of Daniel, came in the Increase, from London, 1635, aged 50, with w. Elizabeth 48, and s. Joseph, bef. ment. but how the other childr. came or when, is uncert.; freem. 8 Oct. 1640, says the Geneal. 20 June 1654; but either that date or one of his will is wrong, as pub. in Geneal. Reg. V. 299, where the test. is 2 Dec. 1654. Mr. Morse assures me, the true d. is 5 Dec. I presume the d. of his s. Joseph was intend. for June. Farmer says he d. 3 days aft. and agrees with town rec. therein. It gives w. Elizabeth all his est. but aft. her life to be div. among ch. John, Daniel, Mary, w. of Samuel Bullen, beside Ann, wid. of Joseph, for his childr. equal. and no more; that I doubt the other names giv. in the Geneal. may not be all correct, especially as Abigail is said, therein, to m. Daniel Fisher, the speaker, whose w. was, I think, Abigail, d. of Thomas Marrett. Geneal. Reg. IX. 141, gives the inv. by wid. Elizabeth 10 Jan 1655. Perhaps the dates are confus. by the numerals for mos. and days in one of the transact. being interchang. The wid. d. 20 June 1665. SAMUEL, perhaps s. of the preced. liv. at Dedham, says the Geneal. there by w. Mary Bullen had Mary, b. 20 June 1642; and Samuel; but it could [[242]] tell no more, and guesses that he rem. to E. SAMUEL, Dedham, in the part wh. bec. Medfield, eldest s. of Joseph of the same, m. 10 Feb. 1665, Elizabeth Moore, had Samuel, b. 8 Feb. 1666; Elizabeth 28 Mar. 1668; Hannah, 30 Aug. 1669, d. soon; Hannah, again, 9 Nov. 1670, d. soon; Ruth, 21 Mar. 1672; JOSEPH, 16 Jan. 1674, both these d. young; Joshua, 7 Apr. 1679; Eleazer, 10 1680; and Belloni, 19 June 1682; and in one week aft. his w. d.

THOMAS, Dedham, adm. the ch. 28 June 1640, but I find not his name in the great Geneal. in the preparat. of wh. Rev. Abner, in our days, spent over thirty yrs. WALTER, Boston, I suppose of Muddy riv. bef. 1667, James Clark of that planta. in his will provides for the d. who m. him yet his name is not includ. with the innumera. Morses. WILLIAM, Newbury, br. of Anthony, came with him 1635, in the James, from Southampton, hav. been a shoemaker at Marlborough, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth wh. d. 18 Mar. 1655; Ann, perhaps bef. her, yet may be the d. nam. by Coffin, 6 Mar. 1641; perhaps John, wh. liv. at Tiverton; Jonathan, 1640; Joseph; Timothy, 10 June 1647 or 8, d. young; Abigail, 14 Feb. 1652; and prob. Edmund; d. says Coffin, 29 Nov. 1683, aged 69. He had also Joshua, and prob. William, as he is call. sen. All the fam. was scatter. by the witchcr. virulence, some to R.I. some to Plym. and perhaps not a few in N. J. or further s. were spell. Moss. Ann m. 5 Feb. 1655, Francis Thorla of N. Mather, Magn. VI. 68, exults in the wondrous, diabolical operations, within, around, and against his dwelling, of wh. all were traceable, to a roguish gr.son. It was Increase Mather that first publish. the full relation of those follies as wonders. Much of the evidence how the devil was played in 1679, for wh. Elizabeth the poor tormented gr.mo. of young scapegrace was sentenced to be hanged, but happily pardoned; bef. the gr. adversary's full triumph, was gather by Coffin in his Hist. of N. and is well giv. in the Memorial of the Morses. Thirteen of this name in sev. forms of spelling, had, in 1834 been at Harv. six at Dart. four at Yale, and three at other N. E. coll. MORTIMER, MORTIMORE, or MALTIMORE, EDWARD, Boston, merch. by w. Jane had Dorcas, b. 28 Nov. 1674; Edward, 20 June 1676; Elizabeth 19 Aug. 1678; Richard, 10 Aug. 1680; Jane, 12 July 1686; and Robert, 31 July 1688. He is highly commend. by John Dunton, wh. says he came from Ireland. RICHARD, Boston, perhaps br. of the preced. by w. Ann had Mary, b. 28 May 1664. THOMAS, New London, was constable 1680, had w. Elizabeth and two ds. Mary, wh. m. Robert Stoddard, and Elizabeth m. Abraham Willey. He d. 11 Mar. 1710. [[243]] MORTON, CHARLES, Charlestown, eldest s. of Rev. Nicholas, wh, d. at Southwark, near London, there hav. a parish, descend. of an anc. m. at Morton, in Co. Notts, where was the seat of Thomas Morton, says Farmer, secr. of Edward III. was b. 1626, in Cornwall, bred at Wadham Coll. Oxford, and sett. at Blisland, in his native Co. as a min. thence eject. in 1662, he liv. sev. yrs. at Newington Green, near London, and was wholly engag. in teach. a private semin. until 1686, when he emb. for Boston, and 5 Nov. of this yr. was ord. at C. His neph. Charles, an M. D., came with him, but went home in July of next yr.; ano. neph. Nicholas, H. C. 1686, wh. d. at Charlestown, 3 Nov. 1689, had come a yr. earlier than his uncle. An aged wid. Ann, says the rec. d. 20 Dec. 1690; but she may not have been relat. Some reports still circulate a. the design of mak. him head of our college, but there can be no founda. for the idea, that such an inducem. caus. his com. for Increase Mather was chos. near. a yr. bef. his leav. Eng. and some jealousy was rais. against him for teach. matters of high rank in the college curriculum. Vice President he was indeed chos. being the first in such rank, and, I suppose, the last who acted under a presid. officer, for when the Inst. was reliev. from the rule of Mather, and nobody was to be found fit to be his successor, with condition of resid. on adequ. salary, Willard was made real head of the Coll. with the inferior title that Morton had enjoy. yet not held to resid. M.was too old to succeed Mather, when this latter was sent to Eng. and d. some yrs. bef. the office was vacat. by him. It is rather strange, that his d. wh. was on 11 Apr. 1698, by Penhallow, who was his pupil in Eng. and came over with him, is mark. 1696, see 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 162, and by Dr. Bartett, in the next Vol. of Coll. 171, noted 1706, aged 80. Plymouth, s. of George, came with his f. in the Ann, 1623; but Judge Davis, in the preface to the Memorial, says, he was b. on the passage. Cotton's Plymouth ch. hist. in 1 Hist. Coll. IV. 126, marks his d. 7 Sept. 1693, in 70th yr. of his age, wh. implies that he was b. aft. the arr. of the sh. in July. Perhaps the differ. may be explain. by error in Cotton's use of the Latin word, as very frequent. occurs in careless mod. writers. He m. 18 Nov. 1644, Ann Cooper, wh. d. 1 Sept. 1691, had Ephraim, b. 27 Jan. 1648; Rebecca, 15 Mar. 1651; Josiah, 1653; George; Nathaniel; Eleazer; Thomas; and Patience; who were all m. and ea. s. had issue.

By sagac. conject. he is presum. to be the Editor of the valua. tract, usual. call. Mourt's Relation. See Dr. Young, Chron. of Pilgr. 113. Dr. Felt, Ann. of Salem, I. 228, differs from Dr. Young, and speaks of Mourt as visiting Naumkeag in 1621; but his addr. "to the reader" seems to imply of necessity, that he had never visited our country, tho. he hoped to. GEORGE, Plymouth, perhaps s. of the preced. at least, how the rec. of P. that ment. d. Phebe, w. of George, 22 May 1663, can otherwise be explain. I do not discov. and elucidat. must be wait. for. GEORGE, Plymouth, s. perhaps eldest, of Ephraim of the same, m. 22 Dec. 1664, Joanna Kempton, d. of Ephraim, was one of the first purch. of Dartmouth, 1652, tho. then an inf. if his f. prefers to have the right in his name.

THOMAS, Plymouth, came in the Fortune, Nov. 1621, and either d. or went home soon aft. the div. of lds. in wh. he had part, and bef. the div. of cattle 1627, in wh. he had none. See Davis's Morton, 378. THOMAS, Braintree, the pettifogger of Clifford's Inn, London, came June 1622, and seems much to have displeas. all the sett. in other planta. perhaps in no small degree for calling his planta. Merry Mount; was seiz. and sent home, June 1628, for causes well set down by Gov. Bradford in 1 Hist. Coll. III. 62; soon came back, and foll. similar courses, and by Gov. Winthrop, in 1630, was sent off; still he was infatuat. with love of N. E. and a third time got there and a third time was punish. and d. in poverty at York, a. 1646. See Winthrop II. 192.

Farmer says the name is still in the E. part of the State. MOSIER, or MOSHIER, ARTHUR, Boston, by w. Rebecca had Lydia, b. 25 Feb. 1678, Thomas, 22 Sept. 1619; and Samuel, 21 Jan. 1683. Perhaps it is bec. Mosher.

Of James, we kn. only that he was admor. 1666, appoint. at the July Ct. on est. of his f. and of John, that in 1683, he was of Brookhaven, L. I. and gave coveyance of ld. in Casco Bay. MOSMAN, James, Wrentham, by w. Ann had Elizabeth b. 24 May 1675, d. 6 Mar. foll. He rem. to Roxbury, there had Timothy, b. 17 Nov. 1679; and Elizabeth 18 Dec. 1696; but it is not sure that it was by the same w. or whether other ch. had not been b. perhaps in ano. town.

Reg. IX. 361, gives the bapt. wh. may be a mistake for Dec. The rec. of b. may be trust. that of bapt. is certain. wrong. He was rep. 1667-70, and then rem. to Wallingford 1670, of wh. he was rep. 1671-3, yet contin. propr. at New Haven, d. 1707, aged 103, perhaps with slight exagg,. yet thot. to be the oldest that ever d. in Conn.

MERCY, New Haven, s. of John, by w. Elizabeth had John; and William, b. 28 June 1682; but perhaps John was not the elder. He d. not long aft. for his inv. was of 3 Mar. 1685, and only the wid. and two s. to have int. in it. In no other case have I seen this female name enjoy. by a man. The surname is sometimes writ. by mistake for Morse. MOTT, ADAM, Hingham, a tailor, from Cambridge, Eng. came in the Defence 1635, aged 39, with w. Sarah, 31, and ch. John, 14; Adam, 12; Jonathan, 9; Elizabeth 6; and Mary, 4; was first of Roxbury, freem. 25 May 1636; perhaps disatisf. as a friend of Hutchinson, went 1638 to Rh.

Joanna had Hannah, b. Nov. 1663; Mercy, 8 Jan. 1666 Sarah, 3 Feb. 1670; Elizabeth 12 Sept. 1672; and Samuel, 4 Sept. 1678. JOHN Newport, perhaps br. of the first Adam, sign. the compact at the same time with him, July 1638, was of Block isl. or one of the same name, 1684. NATHANIEL, Scituate, able to bear arms 1643, rem. to Braintree, m. 1656, Hannah, Shooter had Nathaniel, b. 28 Dec. 1657. A Margaret M. came in the Speedwell, 1656, aged 12.

He was abus. as a Quaker, by Gov. Bellingham, and rem. to whence he came. But ano. kind of abuse was practis. in the change of his Christian name at Boston, for the Friend's rec. prove that it was: EDWARD, and that at Newport, by w. Christian, he had Edward, b. 24 Mar. 1669; and at Boston, Nicholas, 29 May 1671, wh. prob. d. soon; and Nicholas, again, agreea. to Boston rec. 21 June 1672. MOULTHROP, or MOULTROP, JOHN, New Haven, s. of the sec. Matthew, m. 29 June 1692, Abigail Bradley, d. of Joseph, had Abigail, b.

William, and Thomas, and the Jane and Bridget were tw. wh. d. on the same day, 19 Mar. 1699, aged 64. Of the case of the tw. Cotton Mather took advantage to write to Woodward of the Royal.

In the same ship came a wid. from Ormsby, Mary M. aged 38 yrs. with two serv. John Maston, aged 20, and Marian Moulton, 23; also Ruth M. a maiden of 20. JOHN, Hampton, 1678, may have been s. of the preced. or of ano. prob. m. 23 Mar. 1666, Lydia, d. of the first Anthony Taylor, had Martha, b. 16 Nov. foll.; s.

Martha and Rebecca were in 1651, said to be bewitched by Mary, w. of Hugh Parsons who was on trial, found guilty. The f. was, perhaps, more influenced by the writing or conversa. of Pynchon, whom he follow. to their native land 1653. Johnson, in Wonderwork. Provid. Lib. III. ch. 2, speaks largely of his ability, and suggegts no misgiving about the soundness of his faith; yet we can hardly doubt, that he was drawn home by sympathy with Pynchon to partake the greater freedom then enjoy. in Eng. and there d. 15 Sept. 1687, aged 85.

John Coggeshall, yet there is some uncertain. a this, for his s. Peleg is also said to have m. that d. of Ephraim Bull. In the will of the f. however, pro. 1741, are nam. his ch. Peleg; Mary Hanson; Sarah Barber; Elizabeth Foster; and Hannah Hopkins; beside gr.ch. Samuel, Peleg, Thomas, Abigail, and Content. His kinsman, William Mumford, was made excor. STEPHEN, Newport, came from London 1664, and was the first preach. of the sect of seventh day Bapt. wh. prevails in a part of the State. I presume he had descend. THOMAS, Newport, had Thomas, b. 1656; Peleg, 1659; George; and Abigail, wh. m. 1 May 1682, Daniel Fish. Yet he does not appear a constant resid. at N. tho. he join. with Brenton, John Hull, and others in purch. and settlem. of Pettaquamscuck. Possib. the name is the same Mountfort. The name of his w. is not kn. nor the time of his d. but it was bef. 1692. THOMAS, prob. of Kingstown, eldest s. of the preced. by w.

His wid. m. 7 Oct. 1686, John Richards of Westfield. NATHANIEL, Springfield, youngest br. of the preced. may have had fam. SAMUEL, Woodbury 1680, wheelwright, may well seem to be of a differ. fam. from any of the preced. as Cothren says he came in from Milford, and his f. is unkn. had Jane, and Amy, bapt. Oct. 1680; Mary, Nov. 1681; Daniel, Feb. 1684; and Samuel, Apr. 1687. In mod. times the name has double n. MUNDAY, or MONDAY, HENRY, Salibury freem. 13 May 1640, was rated in 1652, higher than any other inhab. but one. Farmer, from the rec. says his w. d. 22 July 1654. The spell. is sometimes Monde or Munde. He has prefix of respect in town rec. WILLIAM, passeng. in the Mary and John 1634, may have been f. of the preced. at least we kn. that sev. of the early sett. at Salisbury came in that voyage. MUNDEN, Springfield m. 16 May 1644, Ann Munson, had Mary, b. 8 Aug. 1645, and he was drown. 29 Oct. at Enfield Falls, the same yr. This d. was complain. against, 1676, at Northampton, or "wearing silk, and that in a flaunting manner;" the enormity of her offence was aggravat. perhaps, by the disaster of her f. thirty yrs. bef. Yet her character was so good as to obtain a h. next yr. Peter Plimpton. MUNGER, JOHN, Guilford, s. of Nicholas, m. 1684, Mary Everts, d. of James, had Mary, b. 1686, d. young; John, 1687; Mary, again, 1689; Abigail, 1691; Ebenezer, 4 July 1693; Caleb, 1695; Jonathan, 1697; Josiah, 20 July, 1704; and Rachel, 1706; and he d.

[[255]] MUNJOY, or MUNGY, BENJAMIN, of Boston, perhaps was a mariner in 1655, but of him no more is kn. exc. that admin. on his est. was. giv. in Essex Co. 28 June 1659, to his w. wh. brot. in inv. of L19,2,5.

Huldah, so that the name was soon extinct, exc. as it is preserv. in the hill on wh. stands the observatory in the beautiful city of Portland. See Willis, I. 93, 170. Munjoy was easily adopt. from the sound of old Mountjoy; but the ancestor in our country always used the shorter form. WALTER, Marblehead 1668, petitnr. against imposts.

WALTER, Portsmouth, came early in 1630, by the Warwick, as Gov. of the planta. of Gorges and Mason, went home in Aug. 1633, sail. from Boston 13th of that mo. aft. being above ten days there. Both his coming and going, therefore, from this shore, is to a sober man satisfact. proof of the falsity of the gr.

Much stronger, even, is the evid. of forgery of a letter, pretend. to be of Neal and Wiggin, to the patentee John Mason, 13 Aug. 1633, wh. by the managers of the fraud, intend. for a buttress of the splendid grant. That letter purports to be writ. at Northam, wh. was the complimenta. name some yrs. later, for Dover, on the Piscataqua, when we kn. from p. 107 of Vol. I. of the Hist. by Gov. Winthrop that on that same day Neal was at Boston, and had been above a week, with a comp. of eight friends, to embark in the Elizabeth Bonadventure that sail. for Eng. on 15 of that month; and from p. 115 of the same Vol. that Wiggin was in London on the date of that forgery of the prepostr. letter, embarking at Gravesend for Salem, the very day that Neal left Boston for Eng. In the assiduity of Farmer no further acco. is reach. but he thinks WALTER of N. H. 1660, who by w. Mary had Samuel, b. 14 June 1661, and was in 1673, lieut. in the comp. of wh.

[[273]] Of his ch. we can hardly speak with certainty. Prob. Joshua, wh. d. 12 Nov. 1658, at Boston, was the oldest, and h. of that Elizabeth N. call. on adm. to our ch. 30 Mar. 1634, "d.-in-law to our sis. Ann N." Elizabeth prob. the eldest d. m.

Elizabeth and Nathaniel Lynde, and Nathaniel N. of London are ment. His will, of 25 Nov. 1664, with codic. of 8 May foll. is in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 333. NATHANIEL, Boston, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. ar. co. 1646, went home, prob. bef. m. there had Nathaniel, a merch. in London, by his w. Isabel, wh. surv. him, and in 1671, was w. of John Johnson of London. Farmer says some of the descend. write the name Newdigate, as was here done occasionally. NEWGROVE, JOHN, Dover 1648. NEWHALL, ANTHONY, oft. confus. with Newell, Lynn 1636, some time of Salem, d. 31 Jan. 1657, had John, and, perhaps, other childr. for his will of 14 Jan. pro. 31 Mar. 1657, ment. gr.ch. Richard and Elizabeth Hood. JOHN, Lynn, s. of Anthony, m. 31 Dec. 1676, Elizabeth Normanton, had, perhaps, issue, but ano.

A third JOHN, of Lynn, m. 18 June 1677, Esther, d. of William Bartram, had Elizabeth b. 12 May 1678; Sarah, 15 Feb. 1680, d. in few days; Jonathan, 25 Dec. 1681; Sarah, again, 23 Jan. 1683; and Jeremiah, 12 Feb. 1685. One of these Johns was freem. 1684, and two in 1691, of wh. one is mark. sen. and the other ens. But Lewis provides for a JOHN, of Lynn, much earlier, s. of Thomas, b. in Eng. to m. 10 Apr. 1646, Sarah Lewis. Some doubt rises in my mind bec. I kn. not whose d. she was or could be. JOSEPH, Lynn, s. of Thomas, freem. 1690, had Jemima, b. Dec. 1678; and Thomas, 16 Jan. 1681. He was, perhaps, the first Thomas, and may be that Joseph who perish. in the gr. snow storm 29 and 30 Jan. 1705. Jemima m. Benjamin Very of Salem. NATHANIEL, Lynn, s. of Thomas, is prob. the freem. of 1691, call. junr. but NATHANIEL, s. of John, is prob. that freem. 1691, call. sen. THOMAS, Lynn 1630, Mr. Lewis thinks, brot. John, had Thomas, the first Eng. ch. b. in that town. His w. d. 25 Sept. 1665, and he d. 25 [[274]] May 1674. His will, of 1 Apr. 1668, pro. 1 July 1674, names two s. John, and Thomas, ds. Susanna, w. of Richard Haven, and her five ch. Joseph, Richard, Sarah, Nathaniel, and Moses; and Mary, w. of Thomas Brown, and her ch. not nam. them. THOMAS, Lynn, s. of the preced. m. says Lewis, 29 Sept. 1652, Elizabeth d. of Robert (but I prefer Nicholas) Potter, had Joseph, b. 22 Sept. 1658; Nathaniel, 17 Mar. 1660; Elizabeth 21 Mar. 1662, d. at 3 yrs.; Elisha, 3 Nov. 1665; Elizabeth again, 22 Oct. 1667; Mary, 18 Feb. 1670; Samuel, 19 Nov. 1672.; and Rebecca, 17 July 1675; and he was bur. 1 Apr. 1687, in 57th yr. More descend. remain of this than any other fam. in the town. THOMAS, Malden, by w. Rebecca, wh. d. 26 May 1725, had Lydia, b. 17 Apr. 1687; Samuel, 26 Apr. 1689; and he d. 13 July 1728. NEWLAND, ANTHONY, Salisbury 1650, soon rem. prob. for the name is not aft. seen there, and may be the foll. ANTHONY, Taunton, s. of Jeremiah, m. 16 Dec. 1682, Esther Austin. HENRY, Taunton 1666. JEREMIAH, Taunton, had Anthony, b. 1 Aug. 1657. JOHN, Sandwich 1643, perhaps s. of William. WILLIAM, Sandwich, had rem. thither from Lynn 1637, was freem. of the Col. 1641, rep. 1642, 3, and 4, but 3 Oct. 1659, disfranch. for abetting Quakers; m. 19 May 1648, Rose Holloway, had Mary, b. 16 Apr. 1649; John; and Mercy, wh. m. an Edwards, and had admin. of the est. of her f. 26 June 1694. One William is enumerat. among the soldiers of Gallup's comp. in the sad expedit. of Phips. against Quebec, 1690, in Geneal. Reg. IX. 354, but the more correct roll in XIII. has it not. NEWMAN, ANTIPAS, Wenham, s. of Rev. Samuel, b. 15 Oct. 1627, in Eng. began to pr. 1657, but was not ord. until Dec. 1663, m. 1658, Elizabeth d. of the younger Gov.

FRANCIS, New Haven 1638, an Assist. 1653 and aft. until made Gov. 1658, to his d. 18 Nov. 1660. He also serv. in the import. place of Commr. of the Unit. Col. 1654 and 8, and in the troublesome relations with the Dutch of New Netherlands. In his barn was form. the compact, June 1639, or civil const. by wh. the Col. many yrs. was ruled His wid. m. says Emery, Rev. Nicholas Street, yet we are ign. who was her f. or what was her name. Of ch. I find only Elizabeth wh. m. Thomas Knowles, and next, Nicholas Knell. JOHN, perhaps br. of Thomas, came in the Mary and John, 1634, but at what place he sett. is unkn. [[275]] yet conject. favors Ipswich; but he was of Wenham 1690. JOHN, Ipswich 1648, s. of Thomas, b. in Eng. had come 1634, with his f. in the Mary and John, and may be the same as the preced. JOHN, Gloucester, s. of Antipas, a physician, m. Ruth, eldest d. of Rev. John Emerson, had issue, but details are unkn. JOHN, a serj. in capt. Turner's comp. station. at Hadley, must have come from the E. and prob. from Ipswich, at last, a John N. junr. was there 1679, owning commons. JOHN, Oyster Bay, L. I. 1685, may have been a propr. at New Haven 1669, and again in 1685, possib. a s. of the Gov. NOAH, Rehoboth, s. of Rev. Samuel, while he succeed. m. 30 Dec. 1669, Joanna, d. of Rev. Henry Flint, had Sybel, b. 31 Mar. 1675, d. in few mos.; beside Samuel, wh. was bur. 2 Oct. 1677; and Henry, H. C. 1687, librarian at the coll. and agent in Eng. for the Prov. of N. H. and d. 16 or 26 Apr. 1678, but Col. Rec. says, bur. 18. The wid. by her will of 7 Nov. 1678, pro. 24 Feb. 1680, gave her est. to Henry, but in case of his d. to childr. of her br. Rev. George Shove, who had m. Hopestill Newman, sis. of Noah. RICHARD, New Haven 1656, possib. a s. of the Gov. had Samuel, b. 1 July that yr.; John; Sarah; both bapt. 1665, tho. the officer wh. kept that unsatisfact. rec. gives no day, nor mo.; and Mercy, b. 7 Dec. 1665, bapt. prob. 28 Jan. foll. tho. the rec. names wrong day, we are sure, wh. prob. d. young; may have been some time at Stamford, a. 1666, and was propr. at New Haven 1685. ROBERT, came in the Mary and John, 1634, to Boston, but in what part of Mass. he sett. is unkn.; rem. to New Haven, in 1638 or 9, was a man of good est. one of the seven pillars at gather. of the ch. and a deac.; had Bethia, bapt. 2 Oct. 1642; and Grace, prob. 25 Oct. (a wrong day being giv. in Geneal. Reg. IX. 361) 1646, d. under 4 yrs.; went home and was, 1657, a vintner in London. SAMUEL, Rehoboth, b. at Banbury, Oxfordsh. bapt. 24 May 1602, s. of Richard, was matricul. of Trinity Coll. Oxford, 3 Mar. 1620 in his 17th yr. but on proceed. A. B. 17 Oct. of that yr. is titled in Wood's Fasti, I. 392, of St. Edmund Hall, had a very small benefice, 1625, at Midhope, part of the parish of Ecclesfield, in the W. Riding of Yorksh. to wh. his successor was presented ten yrs. aft. He came to N. E. perhaps in 1636, tho. Elizabeth aged 24, who may have been his w. or sis. came in the James from London, 1635; yet Mather, III. c. 15, who, in three whole folio pages of double column, by his multifarious nothingness, gives less than six lines of facts, makes him come in 1638, spend a yr. and a half at Dorchester, five yrs. at Weymouth, and nineteen at R. Dr. Harris did not find his name at Dorchester, but he was adm. freem. 13 Mar. 1639 (yet casual. as is plain, without prefix of respect), no doubt then of Weymouth, where his d. Hopestill was b. 29 Aug. or Nov. 1641, as we believe discordant rec. in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 348, or IX. 171; and, perhaps, other ch. Greatly does he deserve [[276]] esteem for his serv. in framing the Concordance, said to have been writ. by light of burning, pine knots. He suffer. more than his temper could bear, by the spreading of the antipaedobapt. in his diocese, and d. 5 July 1663, aged 61; in the will of 18 Nov. 1661, names w. Sybel, s. Samuel, Antipas, Noah, to wh. he gave his libr. and d. Hopestill, or Hope, wh. m. 12 July 1664, Rev. George Shove, and d. 7 Mar. 1674. Patience, an elder d. m. 3 Oct. 1649, Nathaniel Sparhawk of Cambridge. For those who have not easy access to the Magn. Dr.Allen furnishes the wondrous story of Newman's predict. of the hour of his own d. with happy exactness, and Dr. Eliot, in his Biog. Dict. has fully vindica. Mather from the discredit that might be attach. to his page by this. Now to prove what Eliot tells of the acco. being sent to Eng. as well as spread thro. our country, no doubt (when the immortal author of the Magnalia was but few mos. old) we may look into the Diary of Samuel Pepys, and find the "good story of Mr. Newman" to be matter of conversat. in Jan. 1667-8, bef. our N. E. ecclesiast. hist. had filled his six yrs. See p. 354 of Lord Braybrook's Pepys, Vol. III. Ed. 4th.

He liv. at Newtown, on L. I. 1656, a purchaser that yr. of Middleburgh and was a capt. under Stuyvesant. By compact with the Unit. Cols. of N.

E." War was then raging betw. Eng. and Holland, but amicab. relat. wisely were preserv. on our side of the water; and Stuyvesant issued a warrant, Ib. 238, on the same day; but we may be glad that either cunning or common sense prevent. its execut. THOMAS, Boston 1688, came from New Hampsh. is supposed to have been b. 10 Jan. 1661, and was Sect. of that Prov. until 1690, was controller of the customs at B. judge of the admir. and Atty.-Gen in the witchcraft prosecut. and aft. d. 28 May 1721. His opinion must have led to the cure of the infernal delusion, for in Jan. 1693 he wrote to Sir Wm. Phips, the Gov. that of the 52 charg. at Salem that court, the three convicts should have been acquit. like the rest. Twelve of this name had, in 1827, been gr. at N. E. coll. exc. Harv. where none.

See Geneal. Reg. IX. 377. How many yrs. should be subtract. from the date fix. by this centenary, can easi. be ascertain. at Salem, to a high probabil. or perhaps certain. as his descend. have confid. that he was b. 1599; for he sw. 24 June 1662, that he was 63 yrs. old. Six of this name had, in 1834 been gr. at Harv. and seventeen at other N. E. coll. NICHOLSON, CHRISTOPHER, Lynn, s. of Edmund, m. 22 Oct. 1662, Hannah Redknap, prob. d. of Joseph. EDMUND, Marblehead, 1648, d. 1660, it is presum. for his inv. tak. 22 Nov. of that yr. was brot. In six days aft. by Elizabeth his wid. wh. was persecut. as a Quaker the same yr.

If this be the same name with Nicks, he may have been s. of that Matthew Nicks, wh. had, Felt says, gr. of ld. at Salem 1639; but the same yr. he ment.

Farmer thinks he had also William, liv. at Marblehead 1648; and says the elder Richard d. 1683, tho. it may seem as prob. that it was the s. of that name, who he says was b. 1623, and liv. 1672 at Marblehead.

His will, of 9 Dec. 1657, was pro. 27 June 1660. Mather includes him in his first classis, yet omits his name of bapt. He was ord. by a Bp. we may be sure in the last days of Elizabeth or first of James, but we have no report of his cure.

Yet the infection was malign. eno. at Plymouth to drive Matherly and Cudworth from their high places of serv. Prob. he was no relat. of Rev.

Considering the very short distance betw. the resid. of the two progenit. of this widely diffus. name, in the W. border of Hants, and the E. frontier of Wilts, where ea. stood in favora. social position in the latter days of Queen Elizabeth no doubt can be felt of their common origin. Fifteen of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. twelve at Yale (all descend. of Stonington James), and eleven at other N. E. coll. NUDD, JOSEPH, Hampton 1678, was prob. s. of Thomas.

URIAN, Cambridge, s. of the first Edward, b. in Eng. a. 1631 or 2, b. an Almanac for 1650, went home, and obt. a situat. in the ch. the fine liv. of Titchfield, in Hants, 78 miles from London, m. as is said, Ruth, d. of famous William Ames, aft. eject. in 1662, and his w. d. 1669, he came again to C. but not bef. 1671, and was install. 8 Nov. 1671, to fill the place of matchless Mitchell, freem. 1672, and in Apr. 1675, chos. presid. of the coll. as success. to Dr. Hoar. How to construe the dark sayings of Cotton Mather in Book IV. 129 of the Magn. without indulg. of some suspicion against O. puzzled the late Presid. Quincy in his great Hist. of the Univ. and when we rememb. that a very short interval aft. the d. of Oakes, the greater Mather was call. to stand in his place, and that the lesser Mather was under Hoar and Oakes at the time of their academic. rule, we may suppose that the oracle was, as often happened, ambiguously inspired. Some tenderness may, however, be yield. to the Ecclesiast. Histor. for he did not feel as if call by a Ct. of justice, under oath, to tell the whole truth. Silence was safety to hims. and superiors. What the learned s. of lncrease meant by his phrase, about new election, 2 Feb. 1680, is of little consequence, for the presid. d. 25 July 1681, under 50 yrs. of age. Some obscurity also attaches to our kn. of his fam. Prob. he m. in Eng. and there. had ch. two, three, four, or more; but when b. who was the mo. how many were brot. over the ocean, whether his w. d. bef. or aft. are unansw. questions. That his d.

The w. had the faculty of speech to an unpleasant excess, had suffer. in Eng. for neglect of some custom of trifling import. in the solemnities of the ch. and was punish. here for siding with Roger Williams, in 1638, and for berating our elders, as late as 1646. See Felt, II. 457, 576, and Winthrop I. 281, 2. The h. as well as the state, seem to have suffer. for he was driven to go home in 1648 or 9, but came back in few yrs.

Yet prob. it was their own prop. held by him in tr. and they may have come with her. It also provides for his serv. William Corbee or Corby. JAMES, Norwalk, s. of Richard of the same, had (tho.

JEREMIAH, New Haven, perhaps br. Richard, tanner, by w.

O. at least, in the case of not a few other names, such was the custom. That the three first nam. ch. belong to Jeremiah, is denied by Mr. Porter, but he gives two others, Joseph, 15 Dec. 1667; and Rebecca, 11 July 1673. He was rep. 1672-4, d. 1676. His wid. s. Jeremiah, and their heirs were proprs. 1685. JEREMIAH, New Haven, s. of the preced. m. Sarah, wid. of Timothy Gibbard, had Sarah, b. 19 May 1689; and Jonathan, 29 Mar. 1692; and d. 4 Jan. 1713.

JOHN, Windsor, m. 19 May 1645, Ann, only ch. of Richard Oldage, had John, b. 10 Jan. 1646; Ann, 15 Jan. 1648; Nathaniel, 10 Mar. 1650; Samuel, 25 July 1652, d. soon; Mary, 16 Apr. 1655; Hannah, 18 Dec. 1657; Samuel, again, 8 May 1660; Esther, 9 Aug. 1662; Isaac, 28 Sept. 1664, d. at 9 yrs.; and Sarah, 8 Feb. 1667. He d. 27 Oct. 1636, when were liv. beside John, Nathaniel, and Samuel, all the ds. exc. Ann, wh. m. 12 Nov. 1663, Humphrey Prior, and had left two s.; Mary, m. 22 Oct. 1674, Josiah Owen; Hannah, m.

Elizabeth had John and Thomas, tw. b. 11 June 1670; and Elizabeth 25 Dec. 1673, in wh. yr he was freem. being, of 2d ch. JOHN, Salem, m. 5 Oct. 1670, Elizabeth Ruck, prob. d. of John, had Elizabeth and John. Their gr.mo. Elizabeth Spooner, in her will of June 1677, drives me to suspect, that he is the same as the preced. and that Boston rec. is not trustworthy in date of b. of the first two chapters. See Essex Inst. II. 236. JOHN, Fairfield, s. of Richard, m. Sarah, d. of James Bennett, had Samuel, John, David, Joseph, and Elizabeth but dates of either m. or b. are unheard of, and he d. 1709. NICHOLAS, Pemaquid, took the o. of fidel. to Mass. 22 July 1674. RECOMPENSE, New Haven, was by the late lamented Professor Kingsley, thot. to be s. of Thomas, H. C. 1661, tho. it is less prob. from Geneal. Reg. XI. 345, than that he was s. of William, and aft. leav. coll. taught the sch. at New Haven, until he rem. to East Hampton, on L. I. he coll. catal. has never yet been advis. of the yr. of his d. tho. it was bef. the Magnalia of 1698. RICHARD, Hingham, one of the first sett. 1635, rem. soon to Conn. serv. in the Pequot war 1637; next, to New Haven bef. 1640, where he had one ch. as early as 1643. Thence he rem. to Fairfield 1653, and had there in 1671, a gr. of 80 acres for his serv. in [[319]] the old war. Yet he had in 1666 int. in the lds. at Newtown, L. I. and some yrs. bef. his d. liv. at West Chester that was then thot. to belong to Conn. Of the time of his m. or name of his w. inq. has been fruitless; yet his descend. in our age has confid. that he had five ch. at least, John, Daniel, Elizabeth Priscilla, and ano. ch. he calls his "oldest d." SAMUEL, Windsor, s. of the first John of the same, by w. Mary had Samuel, b. 19 Oct. 1684; Rebecca, 20 Apr. 1687. His w. d. 3 Aug. 1690; and by Abigail perhaps had Rebecca, 9 July 1691; but very confus. is the statem. in Stiles, 729-30. THOMAS, Charlestown 1644, freem. 10 May 1648, by w. Hannah had Sarah, b. 29 Mar. 1647; Thomas, 26 June 1649; Mary, 11 Mar. 1652; ano. ch. 30 Apr. 1654; and Martha, 8 Oct. 1656; beside John, bapt. 19 Feb. 1660. He liv. on Malden side, there had w. Sarah, who in Oct. 1651, stood up manfully, with her sisterhood, in defence of Rev. Mr. Matthews against the Gen. Court. In Feb. 1662, he and his w. were rec. into the ch. of Charlestown, by dismiss. from M. but prob. he had a hankering for heresy, as he next yr. united with Gould, as a Bapt. having embraced the opinions of that sect. as early as 1658, tho. their ch. was not formed until May 1665. See Budington, 56; Frothingham, 126, 166-170; and Hutch. Coll. 399. Oft. the name is Ozban in rec. of Middlesex. THOMAS, New Haven 1639, perhaps br. of Richard, with far better est.; counted a fam. of six in few yrs.; rem. to East Hampton, L. I. 1650, there, perhaps, had Thomas, Jeremiah, and John, yet most of them may have been b. bef. rem. or even in Eng. WILLIAM, Salem 1630, freem. 22 May 1639, by w. call. in Felt's list of ch. memb. 1641, Frezwith or Freesweed, had there, I think, no ch. rem. to Dorchester, and there town rec. ment. by Frodiswerd his w. had Recompense, b. 26 May 1644, a. "six-o'clock P. M." H. C. 1661, at Braintree had Hannah, 24 Aug. 1646; Bezaleel, 8 Mar. 1650; and some yrs. aft. at Boston, by prob. the same w. call. Fredeswith and in Prov. rec. Freesweed, had Joseph, b. 6 Apr. 1652; and Jonathan, 16 Nov. 1656. He was a merch. and he d. a. mid. life; his inv. of 29 Apr. 1662 shows over £1000; well for that time. His wid. m. John Mulford of South Hampton, Yorksh. E. Riding, and in 1670 sold to Rev. Antipas Newman of Wenham, that 10 acres granted to. O. WILLIAM, Salem, m. 17 Mar. 1673, Hannah Burton, had Samuel, b. 27 Apr. 1675; John, 27 Aug. 1677; Hannah, 2 Dec. 1679; and William, 3 May 1682. Ano. O. there was, unhappi. at Salem, Sarah, impris. at Boston from 7 Mar. to 10 May 1692, on charge of witchcraft, wh. was not brot. to trial bec. she d. in gaol. How tenderly alleviat. was the suffer. of her latest hours, is nowhere told. She was, perhaps of that WILLIAM of Salem, vill. freem. 1690. Since that was print. I discov. that her h. was Alexander, as bef. herein told. WILLIAM, Braintree, had Bezaleel, b. 1650. WILLIAM, Newtown, L. I. 1656-86. Riker. WILLIAM, New Haven, d. 1662. His inv. of 29 Apr. is there. Five of this name at Harv. and fifteen at other N. E. coll. had been gr. in 1834. [[320]] OSGOOD, CHRISTOPHER, Ipswich, came in the Mary and John, 1634, freem. 6 May 1635, d. 1650, leav. w. Margery, wh. was d. of Philip Fowler, and ch. Mary; Abigail; Elizabeth; Deborah; Christopher, b. 1643; and Thomas, prob. posthum. The wid. m. Thomas Rowell of Ipswich, and, next, Thomas Coleman of Nantucket; Mary m. 1 June 1651, John Lovejoy; and Abigail m. 9 Apr. 1657, as seems prob. Shoreborn Wilson of I. and Deborah, m. 28 Aug. 1663, John Ross. CHRISTOPHER, Andover, s. of the preced. m. 6 Dec. 1663, Hannah Belknap, perhaps d. of Abraham, wh. d. 21 Nov. 1679, and he m. 27 May 1680, Hannah, d. of Richard Barker, wh. 6 Apr. 1687, as did Mary, her d. 9 days aft. and, perhaps he had 3d w. Sarah, wh. d. 8 July 1689, bring. him no ch. and he had fourth w. Sarah; was freem. 1676, an ardent patriot, a capt. imprison. some days by Andros, without warrant, and rep. 1690; d. 1723, in his 80th yr. He had by the first w. Mary, b. 5 July 1665; Hannah, 19 Oct. 1688; Dorothy, 4 July 1671; Abigail, 29 Aug. 1673; Christopher, 28 June 1675; and Ezekiel, 5 Nov. 1679; by the sec. w. had Priscilla, 1 Apr. 1681; Sarah, 19 Feb. 1683; Esther, 31 Oct. 1684; and Ann, 8 Mar. 1687; and the fourth w. brot. him Reecca, 3 May 1692; Lydia, 14 June 1694, d. soon; Lydia, again, 1 Sept. 5; Martha, 14 Dec. 1698; Jeremiah, 1670; and Mary, again, 1705. Yet he was unhappy with most of the peop. of his town, and forc. to petitn. in Oct. 1692 in behalf of his first ch. Mary Marston, w. of John, imprison. on the ludicrous, if it were not ececra. charge of witcher. JOHN, Ipswich, perhaps br. of Christopher the first, came from Andover, in Hampsh. Eng. where he was b. 23 July 1595, wh. in the open. line of his will of 12 Apr. 1650, pro. 25 Nov. 1651, he plain. assert.; rem. soon to Newbury, freem. 22 May 1639, thence to Andover, where he was one of the found. of the ch. Oct. 1645, and the first rep. of the town, 1651; d. 24 Oct. of that yr. A wid. Sarah O. d. at A. 8 Apr. 1667. His ch. were Sarah; John, b. in Eng. a. 1631; Stephen, a. 1638; Mary; Elizabeth; all bef. he went to A. and there had Hannah, 1644; and prob. Deborah.

JOHN, Andover, s. of the reced. b. in Eng. oft. a selectman, was capt. and rep. 1666, 9, 89, and 90, with high popularity, as he had been imprison. by Andros. He m. at Haverhill, 15 Nov. 1653, Mary, d. of Robert Clement, had John, b. 3 Sept. 1654; Mary, 27 Nov. 1656; Timothy, 10 Aug. 1659; Lydia, 12 Aug. 1661; Peter, 30 Aug. 1663; Samuel, 10 Mar. 1665; Sarah, 7 Apr. 1667; Mehitable, 4 Mar. 1671; Hannah, 30 May 1674; Sarah, 4 Nov. 1667; Ebenezer, 4 Oct. 1678; Clement, 12 Oct. 1680, d. soon. He d. 21 Aug. 1993, no doubt in some degree from the torment inflict. on his w. by accusa. of witchcraft in the damnable delusion of 1692, tho. [[321]] she saved her life by confess. of impossib. guilt. See Abbot, Calef, and Hutchinson, II. 31. Charming page is that in 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. VII. 241, wh. gives her indictm. the gift of it being, that she "a covenant with the devil did make, and signed the devil's book, and took the devil to be her God, and consented to serve and worship him, and was bapt. by the devil, and renounc. her former Christian bapt. and promised to be the devil's, both body and soul forever, and to serve him." I rejoice, that, aft. the evaporation of the infernal spirit, she had energy eno. to acknowledge, 19 Oct. 1692, bef. the venerab. Increase Mather (not Cotton M. as in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 118, told) the falsehood of her confess. for surely most of the charges in that indict. would be better laid against the judges in the oyer and terminer. They served, if they did not worship the devil, and took him to be their God, whether they signed his book or not. Had that book been brot. into Court, as it ought to have been, or the governm. call. on to show at least, what means they had used to get the precious rec. to the open view of the jury, the name of William Stoughton, and more than one of his assoc. judges, I doubt not, as clear. as that of Mary Osgood, would have flared in the sapphire blaze. Hard is it to decide, whether prisoners or judges were under stronger delusion. Sarah d. 22 Apr. 1667; Hannah d. 3 Aug. 1674. Lydia m. 20 Jan. 1680, James Frye; Mary m. 8 July 1680, John, Aslett.

He was k. by the Ind. in assault of the town, 26 July 1696, when his s. was tak. carr. off to Penobscot, and in short time releas. but liv. not long.

(no doubt our Israel), to America, and the MS, adds, "now liv. there, the w. of ________ Otis, with sev. ch." Of these ch. we learn not, for most, the exact date of b. and must not be confid. of the order; the names were Stephen, b. 1652; Rose; Richard; Nicholas; Solomon, 15 Oct. 1663, d. next yr.; Experience, 7 Nov. 1666; and Judith. Bef. 5 Nov. 1677, he had sec. w. Shuah, wid. of James Heard, on whose est. he was then admor. but no ch. of this m. is heard of. By third w. Grizzle, a young d. of James Warren, he had Hannah, b. 1689; and a d. 6 Mar. 1689, the subject of romantic story. He was k. by the Ind. 28 June 1689, with his d.

The three elder ds. had been tak. at the same time, [[325]] but were recapt. by fresh pursuit at Conway, on their route to Canada. Rose m. John Pinkham, had ten ch.; Experience m.

His will was of 1729. Sixteen of the name had, in 1825, been gr. at Harv. as Farmer notes, and none at other N. E. coll. all descend. of John the sec. I believe.

Mary Shore, aunts Sarah Phillips, and Elizabeth Greenough, cous. Elizabeth Greenough, and others. Farmer was led into a striking error in giving from Boston rec. death of William P. 11 Nov. 1653, by omission in his correspondent's transer. of the words that precede, for the orig. is thus: "Susan, the d. of Edward Breck of Dorchester, serv. to Mr. William Paddy, d. 11 Nov. 1653." In his Appendix he made stranger explanat. wh. would have bene avoid. had the rec. been scrutiniz. More preposerous than either of these two mistakes was the supposit. started some 20 yrs. since, on finding a gr.st. with his name and descript. laid in the common sewer, near the old town ho. in State str. that this was the spot of his interm. as if so excellent a pub. officer had been bur. in the highway. It had, prob been reject. for its coarseness. To correct ano. error wh. comprehends sev. is almost indispensa. needful, on account of the authority it might carry from it place in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VII.286, where upon the first described of the Portraits of the Windslow fam. that of Mrs. Alice Wensley is strange. call. of the d. of Edmund Freeman, who, aft. the d. of her h. deac. William Paddy, bec. the w. of Samuel Wensley, Esq. and then to extend the confusion thorough. wh. was deep eno. bef. a d. of hers of by her last h. was made w. of the Hon. Isaac Winslow, only s. of Gov. Josiah. Whose portrait that canvas exhibits, whether the mo. or gr.mo. of the w. of Isaac. [[330]] Winslow, may be uncert. but as the wid. of Paddy did not m. at all and as the d. of the w. of Samuel Wensley did not m. Winslow, the picture may be of Elizabeth w. of John Wensley, or of Sarah, her d. who was w. of Winslow. PADNER, EZEKIEL, Boston, by w. Ruth had Ruth, b. 12 Sept. 1668.

John, to six ch. of Simon Eyre, dec. viz.: Benjamin, Mary, Rebecca, Christian, Ann, and Dorothy, £5 ea. and to Simon, wh. was older than most of them, £5.

Norton, Wilson, Sherman, Brown, Cobbett, Fiske, Phillips, and Mayo, 40s. ea. WILLIAM, Salem, shoemaker, may be that passeng. in the Abigail, 1635, aged 15, and at S. to Elizabeth perhaps his w. or mo. Felt says gr. of ld. was made 1640, and he was prob. the freem. of 1650, d. a. 1660. WILLIAM, New Haven 1667, perhaps br. of John, was freem. 1669, had, by w. whose name is not seen, Mercy, wh. m. 9 June 1664, John Frost; Elizabeth wh. m. 11 Oct. 1666, Thomas Sanford; and John, bef. ment. Late in life, he m. Nov. 1679, Mary, wid. of Francis Brown, and his inv. was of 11 Jan. 1685. WILLIAM, Boston s. of Tobias, by w. Mary had William, bapt. 24 Nov. 1695; Tobiah, 27 June 1697; and Sarah, 16 July 1699, at the 2d ch. that of the Mathers; but as he was next winter one of the found. of the Brattle st. ch. perhaps others were bapt. there. He d. 11 June 1735. Twenty of this name had been in 1827 gr. at Harv. and above half as many more at other N. E. coll. besides not a small number, spelling Payne; but I could not discrimin. the fams. and had it been in my power, there would have no benefit foll. because sev. have used both forms. Of ARTHUR, ment. by Farmer, as rec. into Boston ch. 1639, I have the utmost confidence that it belongs to Perry, only one Arthur occurr. in adm. of memb. in that yr. PAINTER, SHUBAEL, Westerly, perhaps s. of Thomas, with him among earliest sett. there 1661. THOMAS, Hingham 1637, rem. perhaps to Providence, at least Roger Williams gives him deed of a lot there, among home lots; but he was aft. at Boston, by w. Catharine, wh. d. 1641, had Elizabeth William, and Thomas, wh. all d. betw. 30 Sept. 1639 and 24 Apr. foll. says the town rec. wh. may so far be true, but ano. Thomas was by the ch. rec. bapt. 13 Sept. 1640, the f. being adm. 5 preced. and freem. 12 Oct. 1640, rem. to Charlestown, New Haven, Rowley, and back to Hingham bef. 1644, there had ano. w. and ch. and suffered severly for unwilling. to bring the ch. to bapt. as told in Winthrop II. 174. So I think he rem. next to Providence, thence again to Newport, bef. 1655, when his name is enroll. among the freem. and prob. his last rem. was to Westerly with its first sett. in 1661. THOMAS, Westerly 1669, perhaps s. of the preced. and one of the name was [[339]] drown. 15 Mar. 1706, whether that being new yrs. day gave any occasion for the casualty is not heard. WILLIAM, Charlestown, a sea capt, and merch. d. 28 Aug. 1666. His will, made 4 days preced. names w. Elizabeth speaks of est. in Barbados and Carolina.

Yet some explanat. may arise from WILLIAM, s. of the preced. being in Col. Rec. designat. as s.-in-law of Robert Paddock. Still Riker must be content with ano. WILLIAM than our Dartmouth man in 1670. WILLIAM, Charlestown 1640, may have been s. of Walter, and of Stonington 1666, of Killingworth, than call. Kenilworth, as in all decency it should contin. to be, in 1670.

JAMES, Kennebeck, s. of John, with his f. was by the Ind. driv. from his isl. and at Falmouth, where they took refuge, were both k. by the Ind. at the sec. destruct. of that town, May 1690. Willis, I. 65. JOHN, Boston 1635, a carpenter of Marlborough, Co. Wilts, came that yr. in the James. arr. 3 June from Southampton, with w. Jane, had Thomas, b. 2 Oct. 1635, bapt. 22 Jan. 1637, his w. hav. unit. with the ch. two weeks bef. Noah, 3, bapt. 8 Apr. 1638; beside John, and Margaret, who may have been brot. from Eng. He liv. at Muddy riv. now Brookline, and d. in few yrs. for in 1656 his wid. Jane had m. Richard Tare, and then sold her ho. and gard. in Boston to Stephen Greenleaf, who came from Newbury. JOHN, Saco 1636, the purch. of Parker's isl. now Georgetown, on E. side of Kennebec riv. near the mo. is by Williamson fondly thought to have first sett. in 1629 on the W. side of the riv. but his purch. was in 1650. Tradit. says he was from Bideford, Co. Devon, and d. bef. June 1661. By w. Mary he had Thomas, John, and Mary, but all may have been b. in Eng. tho. tradit. makes John b. at Saco 1634. Mary m.

JOHN, Woburn 1653, rem,. prob. to Billerica, was there first town clk. d. at Charlestown, 14 June 1669. But a JOHN of Billerica, the serj. who d. Sept. 1668, leav. wid. but no ch. and good est. may in 1652 have been of Cambridge, s. of Robert [[352]] and then took sh. of his f. in the Shawskin lds. wh. was the beginning of sett. at B. JOHN, Cambridge, in the part which bec. Newton, had come from Hingham, with Druce, Hammlond, and Winchester, induc. to rem. by Nicholas Hodgdon, was perhaps, the freem. of 1654; by w. Joanna had Mary, b. 28 Jan. 1648; Martha, 1 May 1649; John 15 Feb. 1652; Joanna, 16 Jan. 1654; Jermiah, 16 Feb. 1656, d. early; Thomas, 1 Feb. 1658, d. at 21 yrs.; Sarah, 6 Jan. 1660; Isaac, 15 Mar. 1663; Jonathan, 6 Nov. 1665; and Lydia, 15 May 1667; but the first two were brot. from H. nad he d. 1686, aged 71, hav. made his will 7 Sept. of that yr. The wid. d. 14 Mar. 1688. Mary m. Peter Hanchett of Roxbury; Martha m. James Horsley; Sarah m. Sept. 1686, Samuel Snow of Woburn; and Joanna, m. a Stone. JOHN, York, freem. 1652, kept the prison in 1678, was excus, from milit serv. by reason of age, still liv. in 1681, when he took o. of alleg. to the k. as ano. JOHN< perhaps his s. had in 1680. JOHN, Kennebeck, s. of John of Saco, perhaps b. in Eng. came to Boston to m. 20 Aug. 1660, Mary, d. of Daniel Fairfield, having the yr. bef. bot. of the Ind. a large tract on the W. side of the Kennebeck opposite his f's isl. now Phipsburg, had, beside four ds. Daniel and James. He, who may be the one who sw. fidel. at Pemaquid 1674, with James, was k. by the Ind. in May 1690 at Falmouth, to wh. they had resort. for safety. JOHN, Newport, in the list of freem. 1655. JOHN, Saybrook, s. of William, m. 24 Feb. 1666, Mary Buckingham, prob. d. of Thomas the first, had John, b. 6 Oct. 1667; Deborah, 31 Aug. 1671; Ebenezer, 18 Aug. 1674; and Samuel, 24 Jan. 1677. JOHN, Reading, br. of Hananiah, m. 13 Nov. 1667, Hannah, d. prob. of Thomas Kendall, who d. 8 July 1689, had John, b. 16 Dec. 1668; Thomas, 9 Nov. 1670; Hannah, 25 Feb. 1672; Rebecca, 18 Feb. 1675; wh. last three ch. d. 17 and 19 June 1689; Kendall, 15 Nov. 1677; Abigail, 10 Oct. 1679, d. in few wks.; Jonathan, 18 July 1681; Daniel, 30 Oct. 1686; and Abigail, again, 24 Dec. 1688, d. at 6 mos. By sec. w. Thankful, m. 28 Jan. 1690, he had Hannah, again, 28 Jan. 1691; Rebecca, again, 13 Feb. 1693; Thomas, again, 17 Mar. 1695; and Elizabeth 27 Mar. 1698; and he d. 21 Feb. foll. JOHN, New Haven 1668, s. of Edward, m. 8 Nov. 1670, Hannah, d. of William Bassett, had Hannah, b. 20 Aug. 1671; John, 26 Mar. 1675; and Abiah, 26 Mar. 1677; rem. to Wallingford, and had Eliphalet, Samuel, and Edward. JOHN, whose w. Alice suff. by hang. as a witch, in the horrible delusion, at Salem, 22 Sept. 1692, was not of that town, but I think, possib. of Andover, yet Felt, II. 480, has not specif. JOHN, Andover, s. of Joseph, k. by the Ind. 29 June 1677, at Scarborough, on serv. as a soldier under Capt. Swett. JOHN, Malden, freem. 1678. JOHN, Salem, m. 29 May 1673, Mary, d. of Giles Cory, had John, b. 30 Mar. foll.; Giles, 16 Apr. 1675; Mary, 12 Apr. 1676, d. in few days; Mary, again, 2 Feb. 1678; Joseph, 17 Sept. 1680; and Margaret, 11 Feb. 1683. JOHN, Newton, may have been that s. of Robert, wh. Cambridge, rec. says, d. 15 May 1681; but, as [[353]] there was two JOHNS at N. acc. Jackson, p. 20, one disting. as South, the other as East, it may be hard to determ. Yet of the Newton John, s. of the first John of the same, Jackson teach. that by w. Mary, he had John, b. 17 Aug. 1687; Mary, 3 Mar. 1690; Deborah, 11 Feb. 1693; Sarah, 24 Mar. 1695; and Thomas, 9 Jan. 1700; and d. Oct. 1713. His wid. d. Mar. 1715. JOHN, came from London 1671, in the Arabella, but it is altogether doubtful where he sat down, or whether he had not bef. liv. on this side and gone home on business. JOHN, Andover, s. of Nathan, m. 24 May 1687, Hannah Brown, but I fell uncert. as ano. JOHN was of Andover, s. of Joseph, and neither of these, s. of Joseph or Nathan, was likely to be h. of that Alice, old enough to be hanged for a witch in the fanaticism of 1692. However, the s. of Nathan, named John, had John, Nathan, Benjamin, and James, of whom the last three says Farmer, were proprs. of Concord N. H. 1726, and he d. 1738. JOHN, reading, s. of Hananiah, by w. Deliverance, had Hananiah, b. 10 Oct. 1691, d. on . serv. at Port Royall, 1711; Andrew, 14 Feb. 1693; Josiah, 11 Apr. 1694; Mary, 4 Dec. 1695, d. at 14 yrs; a s. whose name is not plain, 19 Aug. 1697, wh. d. at 12 yrs; and John, 8 Nov. 1703. Prob. he was freem. 1691, liv. late at Lexington, where his w. d. 10 Mar. 1718, and he d. 22 Jan. 1741. JONATHAN, Boston, s. of Ralph, had Thomas, was a merch. mariner, and d. bef. 1706. JONATHAN, Newton, youngest s. of the first John of the same, by w. Deliverance, had Mary, b. 25 Sept. 1701; rem. to Needham, there had Jonathan, 21 July 1711, and perhaps others bef. or after, and ano. w. Sarah. JOSEPH, Newbury, came in the Confidence from Southampton 1638, aged 24, was a tanner of Newbury, Co. Berks, had Joseph, b. 15 May 1642, rem. to Andover where he was one of the founders of the ch. Oct. 1645, and had more ch. of wh. were Stephen, b. 1651, and Samuel, Thomas, no compos, and ds. Sarah, Mary, and ruth, who all outliv. him, also John k. by the Ind. 1678; and he d. 5 Nov. 1678. All his est. in Rumsey, Co. Hants, a. 8 ms. from Southampton, he devis. to his w. by the last will, made 4 Nov. of that yr. her name was Mary, and a wid. of that name d. 2 Oct. 1695. JOSEPH, Chelmsford, m. 24 June 1655, Rebecca Read, had Ann, b. 7 Feb. 1656; Mary, 28 Oct. 1657; John 31 July 1659; and John, 24 Nov. 1660; but the rec. gives not mo. of the first two, and for the third names Mary; and Margaret for fourth. Yet it may seem prob. that one w. either Mary or Margaret brought all; and perhaps there were more. JOSEPH, Dunstable, is altogether unkn. to me, unless he were of ano. town, and tho. a propr. only a tempor. resid. he had by w. Margaret, as on the rec. of Chelmsford is to be seen, Joseph, b. 30 Mar. 1653; Ann, 2 Feb. 1655, bapt. 20 Apr. foll. d. young; Mary, 28 Oct. 1657; John, 4 Nov. 1660, [[354]] d. 8 Oct. foll.; Ann, 16 Nov. 1663; and Sarah, 16 Nov. 1666; as shown in Shattuck's Memorials; yet I can hardly doubt that confus. betw. husbands of Rebecca and of Margaret, in the rec. of their ch. must have occurr. especial. as ea. had mary b. on one day. JOSEPH, Groton, prob. s. of James the first, had two ws. Elizabeth and Hannah, the latter m. 19 Nov. 1684, and by them had Sarah, b. 16 Nov. 1666 or 1676; Elizabeth 31 Aug. 1679;Simon, 27 Aug. 1687; Joseph, 1 Mar. 1689; Benjamin, 3 Dec. 1691; and John, 26 Aug. 1695. In the excel. Hist. of Groton by Butler, five pages are filled with descent. of James and Joseph. But Shattuck's Memorials, page 376, does not contain the name of the first ch. as above giv. yet supplies two, Nehemiah and Isaac, bef. Simon. JOSEPH, Saybrook, s. of William, m. 3 June 1673, Hannah Gilbert, had Joseph, b. 3 July 1674; Jonathan, 15 July 1675; d. at 8 yrs.; Sarah and Hannah, tw. 15 Feb. 1677, both d. very soon; Hannah, 18 July 1679; Margery, 22 June 1681, d. in few mos.; Margery, again, 12 Mar. 1683, d. at 1 yr.; Matthew; and Jonathan, again, 6 Oct. 1686. JOSEPH, Scituate, s. of William of the same, had says Deane, from 1684 to 1702, Alice, Mary, Joseph, Judith, and Miles, but he does not fix the date of any. JOSEPH, Andover, s. prob. of Joseph the first, m. 7 Oct. 1680, Elizabeth Bridges, wid. of Obadiah, nad prob. d. 6 Apr. 1684; and perhaps his wid. m. 26 Apr. 1686, Samuel Hutchinson. JOSHUA, Groton, s. of Capt. James of the same, m. 22 Sept. 1690, Abigail, youngest d. of the first William Shattuck, and wid. of Jonathan Morse, had Abiel, a d. JOSIAH, Groton, s. of James the first, m. 8 May 1678, Elizabeth Saxton of Boston, prob. d. of Thomas, had Elizabeth b. 31 Aug. 1679; John, 13 Apr. 1681; and Sarah, 1 May 1683; rem. to Chelmsford, Watertown, and last to Cambridge, in one or more of wh. resid. he had Josiah; Joshua; and thomas, H. C. 1718, the min of Dracut, to wh.by his will of 26 July 1731 he have his Groton homestead, and made him excor. MATTHEW, Boston, d. 19 Sept. 1652. MOSES, Chelmsford, s. of Abraham of the same, m. Abigail. d. of richard Hildreth, had Moses, who was k. by lightning; Abigail, b. 8 May 1685; Aaron, 9 Apr. 1689; Elizabeth 26 Dec. 1691; Joseph, 25 Mar. 1694; Benjamin, 14 Apr. 1696; nad Mary, 6 Sept. 1698. NATHAN,Newbury, an early sett. rem. to Andover, was br. of Joseph of the same, m. 10 Nov. 1648, Sarah, or Susan, Short, wh. d. at A. 26 Aug. 1651; but by ano. w. Mary he had John, b. 1653; James, Robert; and Peter; and d. 25 June 1685. Perhaps this man may be he who was ent. as Nathaniel, of London, a baker, aged 20, in 1638, when Stephen Dummer brought him in the Bevis from Southampton. NATHAN, Newbury, prob. s. of the preced. m. 15 Dec. 1675, Mary Brown, d. of John, says one acco. in the Geneal. Reg. VI. 232, by ano. correct report, IX. 221, of Francis, but both describ. as [[355]] of Hampton, and the latter acco. makes her to have sec. h. Eliot. He had only ch. Mary, and d. 1 Apr. 1679. NATHANIEL, Reading, br. of Hannaniah, by w. Bethia and Bethia, b. 23 July 1678, d. in few wks.; Nathaniel, 4 Dec. 1679; Stephen, 14 June 1684, d. in few mos.; Bethia, again, 6 Sept. 1685; Susanna, 29 Dec. 1687; Ebenezer, 28 Dec. 1689; Stephen, again, 21 Apr. 1692; Caleb, 22 Feb. 1694; Timothy, 24 Feb. 1696; Obadiah, 13 Jan. 1698; Abigail, 25 Sept. 1699; Amy, 1 June 1701, d. soon; Amy, again, 8 Nov. 1702; and Phineas, 27 Sept. 1704; was frem. 1691.

Oxford, part. under Archbp. Usher at Dublin, also part, under William Ames in Holland, where he took his A. M. 1617 at Franequer. His f. enjoy. gr. favour in the days of Elizabeth as in 1591 the Bp. of Winchester present. him to the ch. of Putney, in Co.

But from the Reg. of Sir Thomas Phillipps I learn, that seven yrs. aft. he was depriv. no doubt from showing kindness to those who. like his s. thot. more of k. Jesus than k. James. This s. serv. short time at the altar in Newbury, Eng. and came in the Mary and John, Mary 1634, with his neph. Rev.

Such a canon of criticism has, indeed, never been promulg. as binding, but too often passes as sacred tradit. with some, long after rejection by the majority. Forty-one of this time had in 1834, been gr. at Harv. alone, and thrityeight at all other N. E. coll. PARKHURST, GEORGE, Watertown, freem. 10 May 1643, brought from Eng. s. George, d.

Sarah, Mary, Dorcas, Elizabeth and Ann, to ea. of wh. it gives L80, and s. Edward and George, beside Phillips, b. 29 Feb bapt. 12 Mar. 1704, H. C. 1724, min. of Walpole, ancest. of many disting. clerg. In the Catal. of H. C. the name was erron. print, as I thought, and that he was call. for his gr. gr.f. Philip Eliot; and it was prob. the connex. of his gr. uncle, Rev. Edward of Rowley with Rev. Samuel Phillips, that in the later generat. brought the surname into use for the bapt. name. Misled by the copy of his will, in that public rec. Vol. XXII, wherein the name is plain, giv. in three places, Philip, I long felt confid .of the desir. correction; but on turning to the orig. in the handwriting of the testator, not found without some hours' search, it is just as plain, if not as elegant, chirogr. Phillips in ea. of those three places. How earnest would have been the malediction of Judge Sewall, had be kn. the negligence of his Register. For him the will provid. that part of his sh. of the est. was to be paid after his tak. the sec. degree at the Coll. Samuel's wid. d. 25 May 1727, in her 59th yr. and this is hardly consit. with her being d. of Elder Thomas Wiswall, as Jackson makes her. Of the eldest s. Phillips, H. C. 1754, D. D. a well drawn charact. is in Eliot's Biogr. Dict. and of a younger s. Seth, H. C. 1777, D. D. it will be honor eno. that he was f. of the celebr. Edward, H. C. 1803, D. D. min. of Portland. As the celebr. evangelist was my partic. friend at the univ. and afterwards, I am anxious to correct a petty mistake, by wh. Farmer would magnify his reput. calling him of the fifth descent, the whole line being clerg. from the Rowley min. Out of such a mixt. of falsehood and truth is tradition common, engend. He was sec. in desc. from Philip, and only f. and gr. f. were clerg. In 1834, twenty-two of his name, says Farmer, had been gr. at Harv. Yale and Dart. Seven of the thirteen from Harv. were clerg.

"of good parentage and fair condition," as Winthrop I. 269, tells, was, with exempha. justice, hang. for a very cowardly murder, with two assoc. in detect. of wh. Roger Williams gained much credit. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 171-6 Farmer refers to Increase Mather's Ind. Wars, p. 55, and I can add that Baylies, I. 245-8 is equal. full and judicious. But in the contempo. hist. of Gov.

IV. 182, Mr. Pilsbury's copy of the rec. that is, I think, exact, gives the same yr. for both, and one must be wrong; beside Herbert, 3 Oct. 1645; wh. d. or was bur. 2 Jan. 1646. He was a gent. from Co. Lincoln, Matric. at Magdalen Hall, Oxford, 12 Nov. 1619, in his 18th yr. and Gov.

The revo. of 1775 was not honor. by confiscat. of his prop. nor am I aware of the amount of the patriotic plunder, or the benefit enjoy. by partakers. Like most of the other adher. of the crown from N.

PEPYS, RICHARD, Boston 1642, or earlier, took the est. that was of William Blaxton, by purch. and desir. to buy more,as in the rec. I find, that the Selectmen, 27 Feb. 1643, appoint. Colbron and Eliot, a comtee. "to view a parcel of land toward Mr. Blaxton's beach, wh. Richard Peapes desires to purchase of the town, whether it may be conveniently sold unto him." Of him I kn. no more; but prob. he was from Cottenham in Cambridgesh. for the pronunciat. we see, in one syllab. as also his own spell. of the name, both quite rare, are the same as that of the late Lord Cottenham, the Chancellor of Great Britain, and of Samuel Pepys.

His will of 23 June 1670,aft. ment. that his three eldest s. had left him on com. of age, yet that he have giv. them pieces of ld. beside Nathaniel's pt. provides for the wid. and the other three ch. and a codic. of 16 Nov. 1671 is add. * JOHN, Boxford, perhaps s. of the preced. b. in Eng. was frem. 1690, and Farmer says, rep. 1689-91. One John at Ipswich, by w. Jane had Hannah, b. 1 Sept. 1699; but he wa not prob. the rep. and maybe gr.s. of Allen. SAMUEL, Ipswich, s. of Allen, freem. 1669, may have liv. short time at Newbury, m. 15 July 1664, Ruth, perhaps d. of John Trumbull of Rowley, had Sarah, b. 7 June 1665; Samuel 28 May 1667; John 28 Sept. 1669; Hannah, 8 June 1671; Ruth, 4 June 1675; and Hepzibal, 28 Sept. 1679. THOMAS, Rowley, perhaps br. of the preced. in 1670 was of that part made Boxford, and in 1677, I suppose, of newbury, when he was made freem. TIMOTHY, Ipswich, youngest s. of Allen, took o. of alleg. 1678, by w. Dorothy had Patience, b. 28 Mar. 1682; Stephen, 15 June 1684; Allen, 1 Mar. 1688; and Joseph, 3 June 1695; and d. 25 Jan. 1719, aged 64.

He had Elizabeth b. 3 Dec. 1681; Daniel, 18 Mar. 1683; and nathaniel, 9 Feb. 1685. HENRY, Newport 1656, Brookhaven, L. I. 1657, says Thompson,and may have been adm. freem. of Conn. 1664, but his name does not appear in the list of 1669. JOHN, Braintree, had Mary, b. 22 Feb. 1641, rem. perhaps to Rehoboth. It would seem that a JOHN, sen. should be look. for in the same town. whether f. of Abraham or not, for on Col. Rec. is seen that John, sen. was bur. 13 Sept. 1674. Ann, I suppose his d. m. 16 June 1675, Thomas Read of Rehoboth. JOHN, Rehoboth, call, jun., had Mary, b. 16 Apr. 1673; Nathaniel, 3 Sept. 1675, d./ young; Mehitable, 19 Apr. 1677. THOMAS,Ipswich, m. bef. 1669, Susanna, wid. of Robert Roberts, was liv. 1679. PERRY, or PURY, * ANTHONY, Rehoboth 1658-78, was rep. 1674, says Baylies, IV. 85. Perhaps he had Jariel and Mehitable, both d. by Col. r\Rec. Sept. 1676, and he d. 1 Mar. 1683. ARTHUR, Boston 1638, a tailor, by w. Elizabeth had Elishua, a d.b. 20 Dec. 1637, d. in few mos.; Seth, 7 Mar. 1639, bapt. 15 Mar. 1640; John, 26 Apr. bapt. 1 May 1642; and Elizabeth b. 28 Jan.1647; ar. co. 1638; Sarah, bapt. 15 Dec. 1647; Deborah, aged a. 4 days, bapt. 1 July 1649; was the town drummer, freem. 13 May 1640, and d. 9 Oct. 1652. Both of the s. foll. the trade of their f. EDWARD, Sandwich, from being nam. as s. in the will of Edmund Freeman, it maybe thot. he had m. a d. of that ent. but more prob. his mo. had bec. sec. w. of Freman; by w. mary, wh. may have been d.of that Edmund freeman or of Edward Freeman, he had Samuel, b. a. 1664; and prob. others. EZRA, Sandwich, m. 12 Feb. 1652, Eliz, only d. of Thomas Burge of the same, had Ezra, b. 11 Feb. foll; Deborah, 28 Nov. 1654; John, 1 Jan 1657; Samuel, 15 Mar. 1667; Benjamin, 15 Jan. 1670; and Remembrance. 1 Jan. 1676 or 7. FRANCIS, Salem 1631, a wheelwright, b. a. 1608, had w. Jane wh. join. the ch. 141, and had bapt. Sarah, and Benjamin, 8 July of that yr.; David, 1 Aug. 1641; Samuel, 10 Apr. 1642; and Elisha, 11 Aug. 1644; he rem. but I kn. not whither.

Nov. with apostle Eliot in the Lion,and ent, on ch. list soon after, freem. 6 Mar. 1632; but no more is kn. of him. JOHN, Roxbury, perhaps br. of Isaac, came prob. in the Lion, 1632, very early of the ch. there, being no. 17 [[400]] on the list, freem. 4 Mar. 1633, had Elizabeth b. 25 Jan. 1638; John, 7 Sept. 1639; and Samuel, 1 Mar. 1641, bapt. 6 Mar. 1642, unless error of a yr. either in rec. of the town or ch. interven.

I do not understand. JOHN, New Haven, a propr. 1685. JOHN, Taunton 1643. JOHN, Watertown 1674, then aged 61, may have been f. of that JOHN, Watertown, who m. 13 Dec. 1667, Sarah, d. of John Clary, had John, b. 1 Oct. 1668, d. in few wks.; John, again, 3 Mar. 1670; Joanna, 8 Nov. 1672; Sarah, 11 July 1675; Josiah, 7 Dec. 1677, d. young;Elizabeth 2 Oct. 1681; Josiah, again, 28 Nov. 1684; Joseph, 17 Jan. 1691; and Sarah, 30 Apr. 1694. JOSEPH, Seacunk, i. e. Rehoboth, 1651, perhaps was br. of Anthony of the same. or of Thomas of Scituate. NATHANIEL, Rehoboth, m. 17 May 1683, Sarah Carpenter, d. of Samuel of the same, as I presume. OBADIAH, Dunstable, s. of William freem. 1678, one of the found. of the ch. m. 21 Aug. 1667, Esther, d. of Richard Hassell, had Obadiah, b. 11 Oct. 1669; Ebenezer, 20 Nov. 1671; Esther, 11 Aug. 1674; John, 31 Jan. 1682; and Elizabeth 7 Apr. 1683; perhaps others; was k. by the Ind. 28 Sept. 1691. Bond mistakes about him. RICHARD, New Haven 1640, had Mary, bapt. 4 Oct. of that yr.; Micajah, 31 Oct. 1641; Samuel, 8 June 1645; John, 11 July 1647; and Grace, 2 Sept. 1649; perhaps rem. 1651, and was at Fairfield 1650. Share in div. of ld. there is giv. to Nathaniel, but not to Richard, wh. may have d. bef. and this have been his heir. Perhaps he was adm. as an inhab. 1637 at Charlestown, wh. is not long found resid. there; and at Fairfield m. Grace, wid. of John Nichols aft. June 1653, and was d. in 1658; but the identity is uncert. for in 1655 one of the nam,e was at Providence, it is said. This, too, was the name of a merch. at London, one of the Assist. name. in the royal chart. 1629, wh. aided our cause by money, but never came over. SAMUEL, Roxbury, s. of John of the same, was apprent. of John Ruggles as ment. in his will, Geneal. Reg. XII. 343, m. 28 Jan. 1669, Sarah Stedman, prob. d. of John of the same, was apprent. of Jan. 1670, d. at 13 yrs.; Samuel, 23 Feb. 1672; Elizabeth 7 June 1674; John, 12 Apr. 1677; Thomas,1 Sept. 1680; Nathaniel, 27 Aug. 1685, d. soon; Nathaniel, again, 3 Jan. 1687; and Joseph, 20 Dec. 1688; and d. 16 Apr. 1706. SAMUEL, Newport, s. of Edward of Sandwich, m. 12 [[401]] Dec. 1678, Mary Miller, had Mehitable, b. 30 Apr. 1680; Jaciel, 6 May 1682; m. 9 May 1690, Mary, d. of Henry Tucker of Sandwich, as I read in tho. friends' rec. at N. tho. fam. genal. calls her of Dartmouth, had James; Edward; Samuel, b. 1695; Simon; and Benjamin; and d. at Kingston 1716. Benjamin was gr. gr.f. of the disting. commodore O. H. P. SETH, Boston, s. of Arthur, a tailor, freem. 1666. THOMAS,Scituate 1643, m. Sarah, d. of Isaac Stedman, had Thomas, william, Henry, Joseph, John, and perhaps more. THOMAS, Ipswich 1648. THOMAS, Scituate, s. of Thomas, m. 16781, Susanna, d. of John Whiston, had Thomas; James, 12 Mar. 1673 or 4; John; and David. WILLIAM, Scituate 1638, perhaps br. of the first Thomas, may have rem. t Watertown 1640, by w. Ann had Elizabeth b. 12 Aug. 1651; and sev. more ch. of wh. he names five others in his will made a. 1681, when 75 yrs. old, pro. 3 Oct. 1683, Obadiah, Samuel, Sarah, Ann, and Abia. He d. 9 Sept. 1683. Abia m. 3 Jan. 1674, William Bull. Farmer thot. him to be the freem. of 1646, spelt Pary; and for that opinion I see good ground. WILLIAM, Scituate, s. of the first Thomas, m. 1681, Elizabeth Lobdell, and had twelve ch. says Deane. Of this name seven at Yale, five at Harv. and fourteen at other N. E. coll. had been gr. in 1834, by Farmer's count. PERSON, GEORGE, Reading, d. 17 Apr. 1679, as Eaton cites the gr.-st. aged 64. See Parsons. JOHN, Lynn, prob. s. of the preced. by w. Tabitha, had James, b. 28 Nov. 16680; Tabitha; John; Rebecca; Kendall; Susanna; Mary; Thomas; Ebenezer; Sarah; and Abigail; as they are rank. by Lewis. PERWIDGE, or PERWYDGE, WILLIAM, an odd name, found 1644, at Hartford or the neighb. PESTER, or PESTOR, WILLIAM, Salem 1637, when with gr. of ld. he had the prefix of respect, yet abandon, the country in 1642 and 10 yrs. later not being heard of, his w. Dorothy had leave to m. again. PETCOCK. See Pidcock. PETERS, ANDREW, Boston 1659, a distiller, m. Mercy, wid. of Michael Wilborne,d. of William Beamsley, rem. to Ipswich 1665, thence to Andover, where, 14 Aug. 1689, his s. Andrew and John, were k. by the Ind. and other ch. were Mercy, wh. m. 22 May 1686, John Allen; Mary, wh. m. on the same day, Thomas Chandler; and Elizabeth wh. m. 26 Apr. 1692, James Johnson; William; and Samuel; and he d. at the age of 77. Curious it must appear to this later generat. that his name, in one deed, is Peters, and in ano. relat. to the same est. it is writ. Peterson. ANDREW, Andover, s. of the preced. m. 8 Feb. 1686, Eliz prob. d. of Thomas Farnham, may have been issue, but early was k. by the Ind. Rev. Andrew, H. C. 1723, min. of Middletown, wh. d. 1756, may have been gr.s. GILBERT, Salem 1669, mariner, m. 14 Sept. of this yr. Elizabeth eldest d. of Edward Hilliard of the same, had Richard, b. 12 Jan. 1671; William, 19 June 1673; and John, 14 Mar. 1676. HUGH, Salem, the fourth min. there, [[402]] was b. 1599, at the parish of St. Ewe, or, as commonly said, in the town of Fowey, Cornwall, bred at Trinity Coll. Cambridge, where he had his degrees, 1617, and 22, preach. in London with gr. success, until he was driv. to Holland, there taught, with famous William Ames, the eng. ch. at Rotterdam, and for some two yrs. after d. of Ames. He came, I presume, in the Abigail, 1635, tho. his name for good reason, does not appear at the London custom ho. and perhaps he got on board in the downs, arr. 6 Oct. in comp. with sec. John Winth, the mo. of whose first w. he had m. as it seems, was freem. 3 Mar. 1636, sett. in the ch. at S. 21 Sec. foll. in Aug 1641, with Hibbins and Welde, as agents for the Col. he went home, by way of Newfoundland, in the sh. with John Winthrop the younger, and Lechford, the lawyer, engag. with great zeal, in the civil war, and partook largely in the triumphs of this cause and for the detesta. felt at his violence was execut, soon after the restor. 16 oct. 1660, being, I think, the only clerg. of sev. thousand, who thus suffer. he had not, prob. brot. over his fist w. by wh. he had no ch. but m. here Deliverence Sheffield, one of the ch. of Boston, by wh. he had Elizabeth bapt. 8 Mar. 1640, the only ch. top wh. his dying legacy was address. The w. was many yrs. bef. his d. insane, and to some extent this may palliate his ill carriage, and violence, that caus. him so many enemies. She was depend. on private charity in London 1677. Hutch. Coll. 514. he usually wrote his nam,e without final s. A question of slight value is raised, wh. was Ann Peters, on the list of Boston ch. mem. No. 104 "rec. from the ch. of Salem" bef. Nov. 1631. A curious extr. from a fugitive tract, call "Fresh Discovery of Newandering Blazing Stars and Firebrands" 1646, by the famous William Prynne (wh. suffer. so cruelly from sentence of the Star Chamber) in p. 33 of Ed.2, gives the subscript. 17 Aug. 1627, at Hugh peter to the Bp. of London, setting forth is submiss. to the Ch. of Eng. and for the governm. thereof by Archbps. and Bps. and the ceremonies in use, granting his full approbat. and allowance, and for the Bk. of Com. Prayer, the Liturgy, and what is in them cont. "subscribe with my heart and hand," and submit myself to your Lordship's pleasure. To wh. the learned barrister of Lincoln's Inn adds, "If master Peter be now of ano. judgement, it manifest either his gross ignorance, or temporizing then, or his levity now, and the he is as unsteady in his opinions, as in his eccentrics motion from place to place." Peter denied his master, and was not frightened by such animadversion. JOHN, Gravesend L. I. 1650. Thompson, RICHARD, Salem, perhaps eldest s. of Gilbert, by w. Bethia, had William, b. 11 Jan. 1688; and Richard, 5 June 1690. SAMUEL, Andover, s. prob. youngest of Andrew, m. 15 Dec. 1696, Phebe Frye, d. prob. of Samuel of the same, but I kn. no more. THOMAS, New London, younger br. of Hugh, of far milder temper, said to have been bred at Oxford, but on uncert. authty. was a min. in his native shire of Cornwall, whence driv. in 1643, by the royalist forces, he came next yr. to this country, assisted the younger Winthrop in [[403]] his planta. 1646, hav. serv. bef. at Saybrook in the ch. yet contin. but short time,hav. been invited home by former parish, in 1646, and went next yr. Hinman, p. 61, mistakes Hugh for this br. as being with Col. Fenwick, at his first coming to Saybrook, whereas Thomas was not there so early as four yrs. aft. his sec. visit. But he obey. the guidance of Dr. Trumbull, common. safe. In the life of hugh Peter (a work wh. for its perpet.indifference to truth, and frequent bold violations of it. Farmer thought it hazardous to quote), the oldest br. of Hugh call. WILLIAM, is said to have liv. at Boston, and to have had s. John, Andrew Thomas, William, Samuel, and Joseph. After very diligent search, no William is found, either in Boston, or its vicinity; and I suppose this maybe regarded as one of the many inventions of that book. WILLIAM, Andover, s. of Andrew, prob. was k. by the Ind. 13 Aug. 1696. Six of this name had, 1834, been gr. at Yale and four at Harv. Coll. PETERSON, CORNELIUS, Boston 1685. HENRY, and JOHN of Lyme, were of the train band 1678, and no more is kn. of either, exc. that John was aft. of Duxbury, and m. Mary, d. of George Soule; and that Henry by w. Marah, m. 15 Apr. 1683, had Sarah, b. 20 Oct. 1686. PETTIFORD, PETFORD, or PITTFORD, PETER, Salem, 1641, Mr. Felt found ment. of, but nothing is told of him, exc. that heresid. at Marblehead 1648. Among Charlestown bapt. is Samuel, s. of Mary Pettiford, br. Baker's d. on 12 Sept. 1669. PETTELL, ANTHONY, Marblehead 1653, a fisherman, perhaps from Guernsey. PETTIBONE, JOHN, Windsor, freem. 1658, m. 15 Feb. 1665, Sarah, d. of Bigot Egglestone, had John, b. 15 Dec. 1665; Sarah, 24 Sept. 1667, d. young; Stephen, 3 Oct. 1669; besides Samuel, and sev. ds. of wh. was ano. Sarah, of uncert. date. he had est. in that part made Simsbury, was one of the first sett. and there with John, Stephen, and Samuel, was liv. 1712. Three of the name have been gr. at Yale. PETTENGELL, or PATTINGGELL, MATTHEW, Newbury, s. of Richard, m. 13 Sept. 1674, Sarah, d. of Nicholas Noyes, had Nathaniel, b. 21 Jan. 1676; Matthew, 18 Sept. 1678;Joanna, 27 Jan. 1681; Nicholas, 15 Nov. 1685; Sarah, 19 Apr. 1688; John, 16 feb. 1694; Abraham, 23 Sept. 1696; Abigail, 17 Oct. 1699; beside Mary, wh. d. 3 Mar. 1698, prob. b. bef. Nicholas. He m. sec. w. 1703, wid. Jemima French, it is said, d. of Peter Cheney, but perhaps that is wrong, or coffin has confus. two names of bapt. RICHARD, Newbury, came from Staffordsh. tradit. says, was first at Salem, there m. Joanna, d. of Richard Ingersoll, had Samuel, bapt. 9 Feb. 1645; freem. 2 June 1641, was some yrs. at Wenham; and at N. had Mary. b. 6 July 1652; and Nathaniel, 24 Sept. 1654; beside Matthew and Nathaniel, bef. or aft. Mary m. 10 Nov. [[404]] 1670, Abraham Adams. SAMUEL, Newbury, s. of the preced. m. 16 Feb. 1674, Sarah Poor, perhaps d. of John, had Samuel b. 3 Feb. 1676; Richard, 26 Aug. 1677, d. soon; Richard, again, 24 Jan. 1679; John, 20 Sept. 1680; Mary and Sarah, tw. 20 Jan. 1686; Joanna, 10 Feb. 1689; and Benjamin, 18 Dec. 1692. PETTES, or PETTIT, GILBERT, Salem 1668. JOHN, Roxbury 1639, of wh. Mr. Ellis in his Hist. says nothing, but the name occurs, yet with fam. of sev. heads, rem. prob. to Stamford, or Long Island, where I find at Newtown, Thomas, in 1660; Nathaniel, 1667; and John, in 1686. Yet it may well be that his s. John, wh. m. Sarah, d. of Daniel Scofield, was of Stamford 1669. THOMAS, Exeter 1639, a signer of the orig. combina. in 1647 was the chief milit. man. PETTS, JOHN, a soldier k. by the Ind. 19 Oct. 1675, at Hatfield. PETTY, or PETTEE, JOHN, Springfield, had liv. at Windsor, but m. at Boston 30 Mar. 1662, Ann Canning, had at W.

JOSEPH, Deerfield, s. of the preced. was with w. tak. by the Ind. and Fr. 29 Feb. 1704, carr. to Canada, safe got back next yr. and sett.at Northfield, where the name in bec. very common. PETER, sail. from Salem on fishing voyage, k. by the Ind. in the autumn of 1677. Felt II. 213. PETER, Haverhill 1680. Mirick, 85. It maybe the same name as Pattee, wh. is seen in New Hampsh. PETYGOOD, or PETGOOD, PETER, Marblehead 1641. RICHARD, Ipswich 1641. PEVERLY, JOHN, Portsmouth, one of the men sent over, 1631, by the Mason, the Patentee. THOMAS, Portsmouth, perhaps s. of the preced. d. aft. 1670, leav. by w. wh. may have been a d. of Thomas Walford, s. John, Thomas, lazarus, Samuel, and Jeremiah. PHELPS, ABRAHAM, Windsor, s. of George, liv. with his uncle, Abraham Randall, wh. had no ch. and gave him his est. was freem. 1668, m. 6 July 1665, Mary, d. of Humphrey Pinney, had Abraham, b. 6 Mar. 1666; Isaac, 5 Aug. 1673; Benjamin, 1 Oct. 1683; and perhaps others; his w. d. 2 July 1725, aged above 81; and he d. 28 Jan. 1728, aged 85. CHRISTOPHER, Salem, m. 9 July 1658, Elizabeth Sharp, and I kn. no more, but that he sign. petitn. against imposts 1668. EDWARD, Newbury, rem. to Andover, by w. Elizabeth d. of Robert Adams, had, beside others, John, b. at N. 15 Dec. 1657, wh. was k. by the Ind. on serv. at Scarborough, 29 June 1677; and he d. 3 oct. 1689,. EDWARD, Andover, pro. s. of the preced. m. 9 Mar. 1682, Ruth Andrews, had prob. others beside Edward and Bathsheba, wh. d. 24 Feb. 1694; and Elizabeth b. 27 [[405]] Jan. 1690; rem. to Lancaster, and d. 30 Nov. of uncert. yr. and there Elizabeth m. Samuel Willard of L. EPHRAIM, Simsbury, s. of Edward, m. 11 or 21 May 1691, Mary Jaggers, had Ephraim, b. 28 Sept. 1692; and d. 26 Nov. by rec. but, in Stiles, 739, 20 Oct. 1697. GEORGE, Dorchester, freem. 6 May 1635, rem. with Warham to Windsor, by first w. said to be nam. Phillury, d. of Philip Randall, wh. d. 29 Apr. 1648, had Isaac, b. 20 Aug. 1638; Abraham, 22 Jan. 1643; and Joseph, 24 June 1647, wh. d. soon, as did Abraham in the same yr.; ano. Joseph, whether by first or sec. w. is unkn. He m. 2, or as ano. acco. is, 30 Nov. 1648, Frances, wh. had been wid. Clark, and then was wid. of Thomas Dewey, and had Jacob, 7 Feb. 1650; John, 15 Feb. 1652; and Nathaniel, 7 Dec. 1653; rem. to Westfield, there had more ch. and d. 8 May 1687, but Stiles in Hist. 743, says 9 July 1678. Six s. were then liv. no d. is nam. His wid. d. 27 Sept. 1690. HENRY, Salem, from London, came in the Hercules 1634, m. 1652, Hannah Bassett, but as sec. w. in my opin. for there is some prob. that he had m. a d. of Thomas Tresler, by wh. he had s. John, rememb. in the will of his gr.mo. Perhaps he was a Quaker, at least, Felt II. 582 tells how Hannah P. in Oct. 1659, was admonish. But she may have been w. of Nicholas P. ISAAC, Windsor, eldest s. of George of the same, m. 11 May 1663, or 11 Mar. 1664 (Parsons give both dates only six lines apart in Geneal. Reg. V. 369, so that it is quite doubtful wh. day we should prefer, but Stiles takes the earlier), Ann, d. of the sec.

But I find no Phelps in Charlestown, for a long time bef. or aft. and John Phillips at that time had w. Catharine wh. may have had that ch. In some rec. the name is plain Philps, and this shows how easily one may be converted to the other. JOHN, Salem, perhaps s. of Henry, b. w.

WILLIAM, Braintree, or possib. Watertown, freem. 10 May 1643, may be indebted to a careless clk. for this spelling of a name, that I should prob. write Veazie, with confidence. PHILBRICK, or PHILBROOK, sometimes FILBRICK, JAMES, Hampton 1644, prob. s. of Thomas, was first perhaps at Watertown, had w. Ann, d. of Thomas Roberts of Dover, and by her had Bethia, wh. m. 24 Apr. 1677, Caleb Perkins; James; and perhaps others; was perhaps a mariner, and drown, 1 Nov. 1674.

THOMAS, Hampton, prob. s. of the preced. b. in eng. a. 1624, freem. 1668, had perhaps Thomas (as a jr. is name. for tak. o. of alleg. 1678, some mos. bef.

Joseph Walker of Portsmouth, and next, 29 July 1686, John Seavey. THOMAS, Hampton, perhaps s. of the preced. by w. mehitable, had Elizabeth b. 17 oct. 1686. WILLAIM, Hampton, may have been s. of Thomas the sec. by w. Mary had Walter, b. 10 Nov. 1690; and Mary, 20 May 1692. Of many under this surname I fail to find connex. PHILLIPS, ANDREW, Charlestown, by w. Elizabeth had Andrew; Elizabeth b. 29 May 1657; and Ephraim, 31 Mar. 1659; perhaps others. ANDREW, charlestown, s. prob. of the preced. m. 11 Nov. 1683, Sarah, d. of Michael Smith of Malden, had Andrew, b. 23 July 1687; Ebenezer, 17 Aug. 1695; Joanna, 8 Sept. 1697; and perhaps more.

CHARLES, Lynn, had David, b. 17 Mar. 1656, d. at 5 mos.; Abigail, perhaps, 29 Oct. 1657, but the rec. is doubtful; John, 15 Aug. 1658, d. young; George, 20 Dec. 1663; and John, again, 27 June, 1667. DANIEL, Newton, L. I. 1686, by Riker call. br. of Theophilus, was town clk. superseded on the revo. 1689, and may have been of Gallup's comp. 1690, against Quebec. DAVID, Milford 1655-60.

Samuel, and w. beside Elizabeth and perhaps Abigail, an only ch. sis. by ano. f. of John Hayward of Watertown and Charlestown, wh. d. soon after land. at Salem. He was s. of Christopher, b. 1593, at Rainham St. Martins near Rougham, in the hundr. of galow, Co. Norfolk, not Raymond, as says Mather III. capt. 4, but Brook, in Lives of Puritans II. 493, says Roudham, in the same Co. yet Dr. Fuller, writ. to Gov. Bradford, Particularly calls him a Suffolk man (refer. no doubt, to the exercise of his min. for more prob. is the deriv. from Norfolk); however, more import. is it, that he was bred at Gonville and Caius Coll. Cambridge, matricula. 20 Apr. 1610, as from its rec. Mr. Somerby certified me. and there, I found, he took his degr. 1613 and 1617, was sett. in Boxted, Co. Essex, as the dilig. inq. of a descent. in our day has estab. tho. Prince's Ann. II. 45, with minute knowledge, prefer. a differ. but not dist. parish. Hubbard, wh. ought to have kn. calls him "faithful min. of the gospel at Bocksted, near Groton in Sufflk." By a sec. w. m. prob. 1631, Eliz, by Bond, with happy conject. thot. to be wid.of capt.

GEORGE, Dorchester, freem. 18 May 1631, may be presume, to have come, in the Mary and John, the yr. bef. rem. early to Windsor, for this slender health in 1648 and 55, was excus. from milt. watch. His w. d. 1662, leav. him no ch. and he was so unfortun. 1676, as to be involv. in a wordy controv. with the authority of the col. wh. disranch. him next yr. of wh. some acco. is in Trumbull's Rec.

In this yr. he was made deac. of the first ch. and rep. for Hadley. Judge Sewall, in his diary, chronicles his bur. 3 Feb. 1686. His will of 7 Aug. 1682, with codic. 4 Dec. 1685, pro. 18 Feb. foll. disposes of good est. names w. s. Eleazer, Timothy, Samuel, and John, direct, this last for college, ds.

HENRY, New London, on the tax list of 1667, but never again on any rec. there, says Miss Caulkins. HENRY, Charlestown, may have been s. of Henry of Dedham, tho. it is not very prob. for by w.

Ames, wh. gave him favor in the eyes of puritans, was desired to accept office here in sev. place, espec. Cambridge, perhaps in connex. with the newly begun coll. but prefer. to go home in the Autumn of 1641. Felt I. 212, thinks, he was made townsman of Salem, but the prob. is at least equal, that ano. man was thus honored. He was accomp. to Eng. by John Humphrey, Esq. and then honored in the triumph of the cause, made one of the assembly of divines at Westminster; was founder of the Congreg. ch. 1650, after the N. E. pattern, and d. 2 Sept. 1660, aged 78. Calamy, Cont, II. 797. Winthrop II. 86. Lamson. Lechford, 38, refers to him shortly bef. he sailed. His name he wrote without final s. His w.

RICHARD, Weymouth, eldest s. of the first Nicholas of the same, by w. Mary, d. of Samuel Packard, had one ch. b. 7 Dec. 1657, not nam. in the rec. and may therefore be supposed to have d. soon; Mary, 21 May 1660, d. soon; Mary, again, 24 May 1661; Joshua, 10 May 1662; Nicholas, 30 Mar. 1664; Elizabeth 27 Nov. 1665; Richard, 20 Oct. 1667; and Samuel, 7 May 1670; was freem. 1678.

Cobb, had Mehitable, b. 9 Jan. foll.

Ann, d. of ralph Hunt, had Theophilus, b. 15 May 1673; William, 28 June 1676; and Philip, 27 Dec. 1678. Riker says he had two more was. but he names no issue. He was a very useful man; in 1676 chos. to one town office, and next yr. town clk. to his d. 26 Jan. 1689. To me it once seemed highly prob. that he was s. of Rev. George, the first, but Riker 105, suppos. him gr. ch. of wh. tho. improb. is very great, yet greater do I reckon the improb. of his being the s. For THEOPHILUS, s. of George the first, by fam. tradit. of wh. I have transcript, and fell almost certain that it is correct, m. 3 Nov. 1666, Bethia Bedell (or some other name exceeding. hard to be made out from the fugitive memoranda of fam. tradit. in conjunct. with the indistinct chirogr. of the old rec. that in this m. perhaps gives the name Keedell), by wh. he had Bethia, b. 21 Dec. 1668.

Perhaps he liv. in boston, but had est. in C. giv. by his f.'s will. WALTER, Wiscasset 1661, b. it is said, a. 1619, was at Salem 1689, perhaps driv. from the E. by the Ind. hostil. is call, sen. when made freem. 1690; resid. at [[416]] the vill now Danvers, and was liv. 1700. WILLIAM, Taunton 1643, and prob. some yrs. earlier, as he was among purch. 1637, in his will of 16 Apr. 1654, calls hims. "threescore yrs. and ten at the least," out of his small est. gives w.

Without doubt she or her h. was relat. of famous Hooker. WILLIAM, Charlestown, with w.

GEORGE, Boston 1659, a mariner, youngest br. of the preced. m. in London, and by w. Elizabeth had two s. four ds. in 1683 was liv. at Hull in Boston bay. JAMES, Stratford, s. of [[419]] Benjamin of Boston, had Benjamin, James, and a d. wh. all had fam. JAMES, Hull, s. of George, had ds.

Seaborn, or Sibborn, Gooding, or Goodwin, 22 Dec. 1670, had Daniel, b. 20 Dec. 1671; Samuel, 20 Sept. 1674; Sarah, 8 Oct. 1676; Dorcas and John, tw. 22 Dec. 1678; Israel, 17 July 1681; Rachel; and Ann. He prob. had been driv. by Ind. hostil. some yrs bef. to Salem, or Lynn,of wh. last place he is titled, when freem. 1680. By third w. m. 14 Apr. 1686, Damaris, wid. of Thomas Searle, he had three more ch. of wh. the last was Benjamin, b. 29 Sept. 1688; and d. 1710. Wilis II. 8. SAMUEL, Salem, s. of Joseph the first, m. 1 Feb. 1677, Rachel Guppy, had Samuel, b. 12 Dec. 1677; John, 4 Oct. 1679; Stephen, 9 May 1681; Rachel, 5 Aug. 1683; John, again, 25 Dec. 1685; Nathaniel, 4 Aug. 1687; Sarah, May 1691; Rachel, again, 11 Sept. 1693; and Joseph, 9 Feb. 1697; and d. Feb. 1718. THOMAS, Salem, s. of Benjamin prob. or perhaps of the sec. David, tho. less likely, m. Mary, eldest d. of Timothy Lindall. One Judith P. aged 16, came in the Planter from London 1635, with James Hayward, wh. m. her. Both were sev. of Nicholas Davis of Charlestown. PHIPS, or, in mod. days, PHIPPS, JAMES, from Bristol, eng. a gunsmith, sat down near the mouth of the Kennebeck riv. bef. 1649, hav. had very many ch. by the same w. 21 s. and 5 ds. in all, if credulity be sufficiently dilated to embrace the story, one of the youngest, the celebr. Sir. William (Equival. to all the s. in the opin. of his biogr.), being b. 2 Feb. 1651, this latter fact being more prob. than the numb. wh. however Mather asserts in two places, Magn. II. 38 and III. 165. tho. in the sec. place, we are naturally led to distrust his assert. by the manner of its introduct. to the support of his enormous marvel of John Serman's Felicity. Had he once more declared it, he would perhaps have accompan. his story with some incident to compel disbelief. Whether ten or twenty of the boys were b. on the other side of the water, he d. when William [[420]] was young, and his mo. liv. yet the name of no. of no other s. exc. John, or d. exc. Mary, Margaret, and Ann. was ever told. Of twenty-one s. the regard for males in nine cases out of ten, so greatly exceed, that for females, we are justify. in looking for the names of more than two, especial, as three out of the five ds. count. by Mather, find place in his will of their br. the Gov. JOHN, Reading, by Eaton classed among the early sett. of wh. it is desira. to kn. more, that something might be said beyond guess, that he was b. at Charlestown. Had any date been affex. we should be able to conject. that he was, or was not, that JOHN, s. of James, wh. had John, prob. b. near the mo. of Kennebeck wh. accomp. his uncle William 1686, in search of the treasure ship. No more is kn. of him. But some amus. tradit. as to the defeat of testamenta. benefact. to the s. by Sir William, may be read in Morse, who would make up for such injustice, by giv. to his s. Jeddediah near ten yrs. longer life than belong. to him. Such is the tendency to magnify old age. * SAMUEL, Charlestown, s. of Solomon of the same, taught the gr.sch. m. 8 Aug. 1676, Mary Phillips, d. of Henry, wh. d. early; and by sec. w. Catharine had Samuel, bapt. 21 May 1682, d. soon; and Samuel, again, 10 Feb. 1684; was rep. 1692, at the first sess. under new chart. Reg. of deeds, and Clk. of the County, and d. at the age of 70, Aug. 1725. Very strange seems the error of Farmer, in his Memoir of Grad. of H. C. making Gov. Danforth's d. Mary his w. when she belong. to his br. Solomon. SOLOMON, Charlestown 1641, carpenter, was adm. of the ch. 15 Jan. and freem. 18 May 1642, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 23 Apr. 1643; Solomon; Samuel, H. C. 1671, bef. ment.; Mehitable, wh. d. 15 July 1657; Mehitable, again, 10 Dec. 1657; and Mehitable, again, 6 June 1659, if my transcrip. of rec. be right; Joseph, bapt. 13 Oct. 1661; and perhaps others; d. 25 July 1671, aged 52. His will of 4 May 1670 makes w. Elizabeth extrix, provides for the s. Samuel at coll. Solomon, and Joseph, beside d. Elizabeth Ray and her ch. d. Mary, mean. perhaps Solomon's w. and her ch. yet unb. The wid. d. 1 Nov. 1688. SOLOMON, Charlestown, s. of the preced. m. Mary, d. of Dept. Gov. Thomas Danforth, and they join, the ch. 3 Apr. 1670, was freem. 11 May foll. had Mary, b. 3 July 1670; Solomon, 10 Jan. 1675; Thomas, 22 Nov. 1676, H. C. 1695, I think (tho. Farmer gave him to Samuel, as he had also his mo.); Elizabeth 27 Feb. 1681; Jonathan, 7 Jan. 1683; Elizabeth again, 5 Jan. 1684; and it is observ. that this fam. used pp. in its name punctiliously, while single p. served for the Gov. He d. suddenly, tho. I see not the date. Opposite cause may be read in Morse, 195, who makes the Bapt. regard it as a judgm. upon him for purch. ld. taken from one of their commun. for paym. of a fine; but Phipps hims. said "he was bewitched," and his opin. is equally to be respected in our days. à WILLIAM, Boston, s. of James, b. says his panegyrist, [[421]] "at a despicable planta. on the riv. Kennebeck," wh. is by Folsom, a soberer writer, said to be on the W. side, now Phipsburg, m.

Memoir of Sir John Brampston (s. of the old judge, who sat in the immortal cause of John Hampden for the ship money), I find this condensed descript. of him, as "a sea capt. who was will skill, in mathemat. and had acquaint. hims. in India with some that had the art of diving; having some guess where the ship perished, apprehend. he could recov. the treas." Good luck attend. his undertak. but a mod. Eng. author of distinct. wh. ascrib. to him the invent. of a diving-bell for his purpose, ought to know that Edward Bendall had used his diving-bell successful. in Boston harbor, near eight yrs. bef. Sir William was b. and may read in Winthrop Hist. of N. E. that the noble machine was next yr. employed at St. Kitts. For his success he was knight. by James II. 28 June 1687, and after his return here, was made, by Andros, Sheriff of N. E. Happi, he join. the ch. of Cotton Mather 8 Mar. 1690, was freem. a fortnight later, and, as his spiritual guide exulting. tells, was bapt. 23d of that mo. this being almost a yr. after the revo. against that power that made him sheriff, and in May 1690 he conducted the little attack, by only seven hundred men, on the French of Nova Scotia, with success, and was chos. an Assit. at the ensuing elect. The great expedit. that sail. in Aug. foll. against Quebec, was project. by him, "as well formed an enterprise," says Mather, "as perhaps was ever made by the N. E." tho. in this, the world's opinion has not concur. He was not content to have the nautical control merely, in wh. his experience could have been useful, but, with greater generosity than skill or propriety, assum. the direction of the land forces, thereby saving the reputa. of Walley, our ch. milit. officer, to the injury of his own. on the failure of this Quixotic campaign, he went to London, 1691, with intent. to seek aid from the new king in ano. attempt upon the bulwark of French empire in the world; but was most lucki. divert. from that pursuit, by the appointm. as Gov. in the new chart. on the recommend. of Increase Mather to the king. With Mather and the chart. he arr. at Boston 14 May 1692, but his incapac. was soon discern. and in two yrs. for indecent or boisterous conduct he was recall. from the prov. to London, and there d. 18 Feb. 1695. A monum. to his mem. stands in the ch. of St. Mary Woolnoth. In Mass. the history of his admin. is the melancholy monum. for his public breach of the peace was a scandal that never before any other ch. magistr. and the horrible delusion of the [[originally missing 422-423; added by Warren Wetmore, May 1999]] [[422]] witch-craft tragedy, tho. not imput. to him, might by him have been partially restrain. if not effect. counteract. As he never had a ch. the preposterous fable never heard of bef. this generat. that Sir Constantine Phips, the Tory lawyer, Lord Chancellor of Ireland, was his s. and the progenit. of Lord Mulgrave of the last century, may be duly esteem. It must be regret. that so respectab. an author as Smiles in his enumerat. of disting. mem. of the peerage, should have adopt. so fabulous an origin for the Normanby fam. See Self Help, p. 169.

PID, RICHARD, freem. of Mass. 22 June 1642, is wholly unkn. to me. PIDDELL, CORBITT, of Conn. as strange a name as the preced. had a suit in Court 1649. PIDCOCK, or PIDCOKE, GEORGE, Scituate m. 1640, Sarah Richards, was liv. 1670, and Deane, 324, says no fam. is heard of. In the Col. Rec. it is found, that he gave to the town that yr. both hims. and his propr. as being too feeble to manage his affairs. PIDGE. See Pigg. PIERCE, PEARSE, PEARS, PEIRSE, or PEARCE, ABRAHAM, Plymouth 1629, had sh. in div. of cattle that yr. of Duxbury 1643, was a propr. of Bridgewater 1645, by w. Rebecca had Abraham, b. Jan. 1638; Isaac; and three ds. of wh. Alice was bapt. at Barnstable, 21 July 1650; and d. at D. 1673. Haz. I. 326; Baylies II. 254. ABRAHAM, Duxbury, s. of the preced. by w. Hannah had Abraham; John; and Samuel; and d. Jan. 1718. ANTHONY, Watertown, eldest s. of John of the same, b. in Eng. freem. 3 Sept. 1634, but by Felt is claim. for Salem that yr. yet perhaps against the stronger right of W. for here the rec. says by w. Sarah or Ann (for he had two, but Ann was the surv.) was b. Mary, 28 Dec. 1633; John, eldest s. whose date is not kn.; Mary, again, 1636; Jacob, 15 Sept. 1637; Daniel, 1 Jan. 1640; Martha, 24 Apr. 1641; Joseph; Benjamin, 1649; and Judith, 18 July 1650; and he d. 9 May 1678. Mary m. Ralph Read of Woburn; and Judith m. 16 Feb. 1667, John Sawin. AZERIKAM, or AZRAKIM, Warwick, is suppos. to have come in from Rehoboth, or Swanzey, had ch. Samuel and Tabitha, perhaps others. BENJAMIN, Scituate, s. of Michael, m. 1678, Martha, d. of James Adams, had Martha, Jerusha, Benjamin, Ebenezer, Persis, Caleb, Thomas, Adams, Jermiah, and Elisha, b. betw. 1679 and 99. Deane. BENJAMIN, Watertown, s. of Anthony, m. 15 Jan. 1678, Hannah, d. of Joshua Brooks of Concord; had eight ch. says Bond, but he names only Hannah, b. 25 Dec. 1679; Benjamin, 29 Apr. 1682; Grace, 4 June 1685; Sarah, 1 Jan. 1688; Samuel, 22 Aug. 1689; Lydia, 3 Oct. 1692; and Hannah, again, 2 Jan. 1700; was freem . 1690; but the time of d. is not ment. Benjamin, Woburn, s. perhaps of Robert, more prob. of Thomas of the same, by w. Mary had Benjamin, b. 28 Aug. 1689; Mary, 29 Jan. 1692; Esther, 25 Oct. 1696; Rebecca, Oct. 1698; Deborah, 5 Dec. 1700; Thomas, 23 Nov. 1702; and Zurishaddai, 22 June 1705. DANIEL Watertown, blacksmith, came in the [[427]] Elizabeth from Ipswich, Co. suff. (but call. of London by Coffin) 1634, aged 23; freem. 2 May 1638, rem. to Newbury, by w. Sarah had Daniel, b. 15 May 1642; Joshua, 15 May 1643; and Martha, 14 Feb. 1648. He sw. fidel. 1652, and m. 26 Dec. 1654, Ann, perhaps wid. of Thomas Millerd, and d. 27 Nov. 1677, leav. good est. His wid. d. 27 Nov. 1690; and his d. m. perhaps a Thorpe. DANIEL, Groton, s. of Anthony, as from Butler's Hist. we learn, by w. Elizabeth and Elizabeth b 16 May 1665; Daniel, 28 Nov. 1666; John, 18 Aug. 1668; Ephraim, 15 Oct. 1673; and Josiah, 2 May 1675. Of course, the Ind. hostil. drove him away; and Bond fixes him at Watertown, and says he had Jospeh; Abigail, b. 3 Jan. 1682; Hannah, bapt. 16 Jan. 1687; and Benjamin, the same day; the last three at W. ++ * DANIEL, Newbury, s. of Daniel of the same, by w. Joanna had Joanna; Daniel, b. 20 Dec. 1663; Ann, 22 May 1666; Benjamin, 16 Feb. 1669; Joshua, 16 Oct. 1671; Thomas, 1 May 1674; Martha, 26 Feb. 1677; Sarah, 3 Oct. 1679; George, 5 Mar. 1682; Mary, 14 Apr. 1685; John, 16 Oct. 1687; and Catharine, 18 Sept. 1690; was a capt. rep. 1682 and 3, of the council of safety on the revo. 1689, col. of one of the Essex reg. rep. under the new chart, in the import. yr. 1692; and d. 22 Jan. tho. Hutch, II. 48, makes it 4 Apr. 1704. His w. d. 26 Sept. 1690, and Daniel and Joanna, the eldest two ch. a few days bef. DAVID, Dorchester, freem. 7 Dec. 1636; but Mr. Paige, in his very careful list, Geneal, Reg. III. 94, read it Price. EDWARD, Watertown 1639, says Bond, wh. thinks he went to Wetherfield, but nothing certain is kn. of the man. EPHRAIM, Weymouth, perhaps s. of Michael, by w. Hannah, d. of John Halbrook of the sam, had Azikam, b. 4 Jan. 1672; prob. Ephraim; and perhaps others. GEORGE, Boston, a smith, m. Mary, d. of Richard Woodhouse, had Mary, b. 20 June 1660, and he d. 7 Dec. 1661. GEORGE, Portsmouth, R. I. m. 7 Apr. 1687, Alice, d. of Richard Hart, had Susanna, b. 21 Aug. 1688; and perhaps more. GILES, Greenwich, R. I. 1687, ISAAC, Boston, tailor, m. Grace, d. of Lewis Tucker of Casco. JAMES, Boston, k. in youth, by lightning, at Plymouth 1660. JAMES, Woburn, s. of Thomas, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 11 Oct. 1688; James, 28 Feb. 1690; and perhaps rem. JOHN, the patentee under the Pres. and Counc. of N. E. 1620 and 1, tho. connect. with the pilgr. of Plymouth, never came, in my opin. to this shore, yet Willis seems contra. I. 13. After most respectful consider. of the docum. refer. to in his note, I am constrain. to express a confidence, that the London clothworker never succeed. in accomplish, tho. he did undertake, a voyage to Plymouth, the ship being put back in distress. My judgment seems to have confirmat. by what is read in Bradford, 140. * JOHN, Dorchester, came perhaps in the Mary and John, 1630, or in the Lion, [[428]] Feb. 1631, is call, mariner from Stepney, one of the modern London parishes, freem. 18 May 1631, by w. Parnell had Joseph, b. 30 Oct. 1631; Abia, or Abigail, 17 July 1633; John, 3 Mar. 1635, d. the same mo.; Nehemiah, 12 July 1637, d. Oct. 1639; and his w. d. the same mo. He was selectman 1636 and 41; rep. Mar. 1639; rem. 1642 to Boston, m. sec. w. 10 Aug. 1654, Rebecca, wid. of Thomas Wheeler, and d. 17 Sept. 1661. His will made the day bef. ment. w. Rebecca, s. Samuel, and Nehemiah, ds. Mehitable, the w. of Jermiah Rogers, prob. eldest, and her three ch. beside Mary, Mercy, and Exercise, as may be read in Geneal, Reg. X 359, 60. In the Hist. of Dorchester, 71, Samuel is supposed to be elder than Nehemiah, "as he is ment. first;" but it seems clear, that he was younger, no doubt, by the sec. w. Ano. JOHN of Dorchester, wh. by w. Mary had sev. ch. is so indistinguisha. as to w. or ch. by the respective names, that we must be content to call one a cooper, and one a selectman, without confidence a. either as more respect. than the other. JOHN, Watertown, freem. Mar. 1638. a man of very good est. project. settlem. at Sudbury and Lancaster, d. 19 Aug. 1661; and his will of 4 Mar. 1658 was pro. 1 Oct. foll. In it he provides for 2. Elizabeth eldest s. Anthony, and other childr. without naming; but his wid. in her will of 15 Mar. 1667, in wh. mo. she d. aged 79, supplies the defic. naming ch. Anthony, John, Robert, Esther Morse, w. of Joseph, Mary Coldam, whose h. is not of my acquaint. beside gr.childr. Mary Ball, and ano. Ball, Esther Morse, and the childr. of Anthony and Robert. He had also d. Judith wh. m. 30 Jan 1645, Francis Wyman, but she d. bef. her f. By Bond he is correct. judged to be the man emb. 1637 at Yarmouth, with w. and ch. he aged 49 yrs. w. Elizabeth 36, ch. John, Barbara, Elizabeth and Judith, with a serv. John Gedney, 19, as had been print. in 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 95, and again is giv. in Geneal. Reg. XIV. 325. He was from Norwich, a weaver. JOHN, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had John and Elizabeth tw. b. 16 June 1643; and of him nothing more is kn. unless he may be that man call. John Peirse, to whose four ch. John Mills of Boston, in his will, Oct. 1651, made gift. * JOHN, Woburn,prob. s. of John of Watertown, and b. in Eng. had John, b. 23 Nov. 1644; Joseph, 12 Sept. 1646; and Thomas, 3 May 1649; perhaps others bef. or aft. was freem. in Apr. and rep. May 1690. JOHN, Gloucester, Husbandman, freem. 1651, m. 4 Nov. 1643 w. Elizabeth had Mary, b. Sept. 1650; and John, 40 July 1653. His w. d. 3 July 1673, and he m. 12 Sept. foll. Jane Stanwood, and d. 15 Dec. 1695. His wid. d. 18 Aug. 1706. JOHN, Boston, s. of Anthony of Watertown, adm. as inhab. 28 Feb. 1643, freem. 1648, m. 15 Apr. 1656, Ruth, d. of Nathaniel Bishop; had Hannah, b. 30 June 1660; Ruth, 22 Nov. 1662; Hannah, again, 2 Mar. 1665 (as to me seems, tho. in the inform town rec. she is call. d. of John Pease, and w. Ruth, neither of wh. is seem elsewhere); beside Nathaniel, 10 Apr. 1678; and Rebecca, 15 Feb. 1680. Perhaps betw. the earliest and lastest pair he was resid. in some other town. His will of 21 Oct. 1682, pro. 7 Nov. foll. gives to his w. Ruth all his est. to bring up the childr. withal, as it lay in Boston or was giv. by his f. at W. or as may be inher. from gr.f. as this testat. was eldest s. of his f. JOHN, Hartford 1640, a youth who prob. rem. soon. JOHN, Charlestown 1652, may have rem. to Kittery, and d. 1673, leav. wid. Elinor. [[429]] His inv. of £154 is dat. 5 Dec. by Francis Hooke, and Hubertus Mattoon. He may have been the witness to will of Thomas Coytmore, Aug. 1642. JOHN, Boston, a mariner, in 1654, was perhaps he who m. 15 Apr. 1656, Ruth, d. of Nathaniel Bishop, had Hannah, b. 30 June 1660; may have been adm. an inhab. 1657. Ano. JOHN of Boston, perhaps by w. Isabel had Samuel, b. 14 Jan. 1660; and d. 17 Sept. 1661. JOHN, Sudbury, perhaps br. of Anthony, had w. Elizabeth wh. d. 12 June 1655. One JOHN, a weaver, came from Norwich, co. Norf. 1637, aged 49, with w. Elizabeth 36 and four ch. John, Barbara, Elizabeth and Judith, and one serv. John Gedney, 19, may have been this Sudbury man or not, as the commonness of the name prevents distinct. JOHN, Woburn, s. perhaps eldest, of John of the same, M. 1 July 1663, Deborah, d. of James Converse, had Deborah, b. 30 Oct. 1666; John, 26 Jan. 1671; Thomas, 23 Dec. 1672; James, 6 Aug. 1674, d. at 11 yrs.; Daniel, 7 Nov. 1676; James, again, 8 Oct. 1686; and Joseph, 24 Aug. 1688. JOHN, Salem 1675, was then chos. lieut. of capt. Gardner's comp. of wh. therefore more ought to be kn. Felt II. 497. JOHN, Boston 1670, a bricklayer; a d. of his had m. William Talmage.

JOSEPH, Woburn, prob. s. of Thomas of the same, m. 24 June 1681, Mary Richardson, was freem. 1684. JOSEPH, Watertown, s. prob. of Anthony, by w.

RICHARD, Portsmouth, R. I. had perhaps other ch. beside that Susanna wh. m. 4 Dec. 1673, George Brownell. RICHARD, Pemaquid, a carpenter, I think is the man to wh. in Jan. 1642, an Ind. sagamore made large gr. of lds. and islds. as may be seen in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 365; took o. of fidel. 1674.

Of his will, good abstr. is in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 154. Some of the bread brot, over the ocean by him, tradit. fondly reports to be still in posess. of descend. and so, by more than 165 yrs. older even than her. It may as well keep many centuries more. ROBERT, Ipswich, m. Abigail, d. of Mark Symonds of the same. ROBERT, Watertown 1646, s. of John of the same, rem. prob. to [[431]] Worburn, was freem. 1650, by w.

ROBERT, Charlestown, m. 18 Feb. 1657, Sarah Eyre. SAMUEL, Malden, whose w.'s name I find not, had Mary, b. 20 Aug. 1656; Thomas, 7 Jan. 1658;' John, and perhaps Joseph, Aug. 1659; of wh.

SAMUEL, Boston 1672, cooper, prob. s. of John of the same, may have rem. 1677, to Charlestown. SAMUEL, Woburn, s. of Thomas of the same, freem. 1684, m. 9 Dec. 1680.

Persis, wh. m. William Bridge, and next, John Harrison, by w. Elizabeth had Abigail, bapt. 17 June 1639, unless she were ch. of ano.

Whether he was promin. as divine, or what issue he had by this last, I am not able to discover (yet Edward C. herick, Esq. Libr. can tell), but his wonderful story of the apparition of the ship in the sky, at New Haven, many yrs. bef. he was b. that worthi. adorns, the Magnalia, Book I. ch. 6, 6, is evidence of his felicity of fancy. It may be compar. with the contempo. acco. of the prodigy in Winthrop II.; 328. He d. 22 Nov. 1714. Against a foolish invent. of recent date, mak. this humble clerg. Òdescend of the Duke of Kingston,Ó the differ. of spell. in the surname, as the sound of both is the same, would be slight obstacle; but we may be sure it is incredib. for our JamesÕs f. was b. many a long yr. bef. the first Duke of K. JOHN, Roxbury, s. of James of Ipswich, b. in Eng. m. Thankful, d. of John Stow, had Thankful b. 26 Nov. bapt. 2 Dec. 1649, d. in few days; John, 22 July [[433]] 1651, d. in few days unbapt.; John, again, 28, bapt. 31 Oct. 1652; Experience, 4 Jan. bapt. 18 Feb. 1655; one, 4 Aug. 1657, d. in very few days unbapt.; James, 4, bapt. 8 Jan. 1660, H. C. 1681; Ebenezer, 21, bapt. 22 Dec. 1661; Thankful, again, 18 Nov. 1663; Joseph, 8 Apr. 1666; and Benjamin, 26 July 1668, H. C. 1689, wh. was a min. that d. 1698 at Charleston, S. C. He was freem. 1652, and d. 7 Dec. 1682, aged 64. His s. John d. 30 Dec. 1690 unm. I think; and Joseph, prob. a stud. at coll. at least bur. at Cambridge, d. 25 Feb. 1687. JONATHAN, s. of Robert of Roxbury, was fourth min. of Reading, ord. 26 June 1689, m. 29 Oct. 1691, Elizabeth d. of Edmund Angier of Cambridge, had Elizabeth b. 25 Feb. 1693; Jonathan, 14 Sept. 1695, H. C. 1714; Joseph, 13 Oct. 1706; Mary, 11 Feb. 1708; and he d. 2 June 1709. ROBERT, Ipswich 1648, br. prob. of James the first, may, I suppose, he regard. as f. of that ROBERT of I. who was adm. freem. 1676; but no good report of either has reached me. ROBERT, Roxbury, s. of the first James, b. in Eng. m. at Charlestown 18 Feb. 1657, tho. Frothingham says 1666, Sarah, d. of Thomas Lynde, had James, b. 30 Nov. 1657, d. very soon; Margaret, 13 Mar. 1659, d. in few days; Margaret, again, 14 Mar. 1661, d. in few days; Jonathan, 8 Oct. 1663, d. in few days; Jonathan, again, 11 June 1665, H. C. 1685; Thomas, 7 July 1667; Ezra, 30 July 1669, d. soon; Sarah, 29 Nov. 1671, d. very soon; Margaret, again, 30 Apr. 1672; James, again, 28 Oct. 1675, d. next yr.; James, again, 27 Aug. 1677; Robert, 31 Dec. 1678, d. in few wks.; and Sarah, again, 24 May 1680; and he d. 16 May 1694. His wid. gave a depon, it is said, at the age of 85 yrs. wh. illustrates much the genalog, tho. her mem. was infirm eno. to magnify the number of her days, by reckon, six or seven yrs. too many, or in the shorter term of Farmer, four or five. So dangerous is an oath taken under the burden of age. Eight of this name includ. the spelling of Pierrepont, the noble fam. in Eng. had in 1834 been gr. at Harv. and six at Yale. PIERSON, PEARSON, PORSUNE, or PERSON, ABRAHAM, Branford, was of Yorksh. came to Boston 1640, join. the ch. 5 Sept. of that yr. when he is call. "a student," of wh. we may doubt the meaning, as we kn. he was bred at Trinity Coll. Cambridge, where he took his A. B. 1632, and he is in Mather's first Classis as a min. bef. coming over, tho. this may well seem incorrect; bec. min. of the ch. gather. in Lynn Nov. 1640 to go to sett. at Southampton, L. I. thence a. 1647 went to Branford, and thence in the autumn of 1667, with a part to his congreg. to Newark, N. J. See his letter to John Winthrop, 3 Mass. Hist. Col. X. 69 and 84. He had Abraham, b. at Lynn 1641, H. C. 1668; Thomas, John, and Abigail, bef. his rem. from S. and at B. were b. Grace, 13 June 1650; Susanna, 10 Dec. 1652; Rebecca, 10 Dec. 1654; and Theophilus, [[434]] 15 Mar. or May 1659; beside Isaac; and Mary. Abigail m. 27 Nov. 1663, John Davenport the younger; Susanna m. 1672, Jonathan Bell of Stamford, as his sec. w.; Grace was sec. w. of Samuel Kitchell; and Rebecca m. Joseph Johnson, and d. 8 Nov. 1732. But much of the details belong to Newark. He d. 9 Aug. 1678. Descend. are in Conn. N. Y. and N. J. of wh. Farmer says twelve had in 1829, been gr. at the coll. of those three States. Lechford, in Plain Dealing, 43, calls him Pridgeon. Of his will, I have large abstr. furnish. by Samuel H. Congar, Esq. It bears date 10 Aug. 1671, provides out of good est. for four s. Abraham, Thomas, Theophilus, and Isaac; four ds. beside his "choice and precious d. Davenport," so that we may be sure John was d. bef. that date. ABRAHAM, Killingworth, s. of the preced. had been ord. as collea, with his f. at Newark, 4 Mar. 1672, in 1692 came to Conn. and in 1694 was sett. at K. m. Abigail, d. of George Clark of Milford; in 1701, was made the first head of Yale coll. and serv. until he d. 5 May 1707. He had ch. Abraham, Sarah, Susannah, Mary, Hannah, Ruth, James, and Abigail, beside John, Y. C. 1711, min of Woodbridge, N. J. BARTHOLOMEW, Watertown 1639, by w. Ursula, writ. Azlee, Uzlah, Uzlee in the rec. had Bartholomew, b. Sept. 1640, d. next mo.; Bartholomew, again, 26 Feb. 1642, d. in few mos.; Martha, 17 Sept. 1643; perhaps Mary; Jonathan, 12 Aug. 1648; Joseph, 8 Nov. 1650; Sarah, 7 May 1653; and Bartholomew, again, wh. d. in few yrs. In 1648 he was made freem. spell. Porsune in the rec. and in 1653 he rem. to Woburn, was selectman 1665 and 6, and d. 12 Mar. 1687. His wid. d. 28 May 1694. HENRY, Hempstead. L. I. 1686. HUGH, Watertown 1649, had, in 1654, w. Alice and d. Ruth, then 9 yrs. old, and he d. 13 June 1675, very poor, as he had liv. JOHN, Middletown, d. July 1677, leav. w. and s. three yrs. old. PETER, Boston, a quaker, to be whipp. at the cart's tail 1660, thro. Boston, Roxbury, and Dedham. Hutch. I. 203. It is not relat. in any book how this tended to his conversion. STEPHEN, Derby 1679, had prob. other ch. beside Stephen and Sarah; for the name of Abraham is found in the list of est. 1717, and this may lead to the presumption that Stephen was s. of the first Abraham. THOMAS, Branford 1668, not (as oft. he is call.) s. of Rev. Abraham the first, m. 27 Nov. 1662, Mary, d. of Richard Harrison, had Samuel, b. a. 1663, rem. to Newark, and d. there. He sw. alleg. to the Dutch in 1673. He was prob. br. possib. neph. of the fist Rev. Abraham, and his will of 12 Jan. 1698, with codic. of 3 Mar. 1701, was pro. in May foll. It names s. Samuel and Thomas, ds. Hannah and Elizabeth THOMAS, Brandford, s. of the first Abraham, m. Mary Harrison, went to Newark from Branford with his f. was call, jun. was in good esteem, but was d. bef. 1684. [[435]] PIGG, PIDGE, or PIGGE, JOHN, Dedham, prob. s. of Thomas, freem. 1690, print, in the list Pidg. as the name of this mo. in the Metcalf genealog. is spelt Pidge, wh. may show the sound. ROBERT, New Haven 1644, d. 1660, or very early next yr. his inv. being of 23 Jan. foll. and his will of .28 Mar. preced. In it he names w. Margaret, wh. m. 1662, William Tharpe or Thorpe, d.

Mary, and sev. ch. had here Martha, bapt. 12 Mar. 1643, and he d. 30 Dec. foll. His will, pro. 12 Sept. 1644, gives Thomas, John, Hannah, Sarah, and Martha, propty. in R. and to d. Mary, w.

PIGROM, WILLIAM, Dorchester 1653, perhaps only transient. PIKE, GEORGE, Marblehead 1668. HUGH, Newbury, a soldier under Turner, at Hatfield, in Apr. 1676, m. 17 June 1685, Sarah, d. of Francis Brown, had Hugh, b. 28 May 1686, and Joseph. JAMES, Charlestown 1647, then adm. of the ch. and made freem. rem. to Reading, had two ws. Naomi, and Sarah, two s. John, b. 1 Jan. 1654; and Zechariah, 8 Oct. 1658; but of wh. w. either was s. or whether there were more ch. or their names if there were more, as is prob. exc. Jermiah, or when either of the ws. or the ch. d. I have not heard. He d. 1699. JEREMIAH, Reading, prob. s. of the preced. had Jermiah, b. 15 Jan. 1674; James, 2 May 1676, d. soon; as did Eliezer or Ebenezer, b. next yr.; Michael, 7 Apr. 1678; James, again. 7 Nov. 1679, d. young; Rachel, 14 Dec. 1681; James, again, 15 Sept. 1682; Nathaniel, 4 May 1685; William, 14 Mar. 1687; Naomi, 14 Feb. 1689; was of Framingham, a selectman 1700, and d. 9 Jan. 1711. JOHN, Newbury, came in the James. 1635, from Southampton, call. in the clearance from the custom-ho. laborer of Langford, with ch. was at Ipswich first, in 1640 of Piscataqua. and rem. perhaps early to Salisbury, but more prob. only estab. there on his est. sec. s. d. 26 May 1654, leav. will, made two days bef. in wh. he provides for gr.s.

VI. 342, where she is call. d. instead of sis. of Robert; Israel, w. of Henry True; and Ann. I presume all these ch. and Sarah, not found in the will, were brot. from Eng. or Coffin would have giv. us the date. of b. here, as well as the name of the w. as yet unkn. * JOHN, Newbury, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. by w.

All inquirers for minute statements about his neighb. are much indebted to his Journal in Vol. III. of N. H. Hist. Coll. His will of 6 Mar. bef. names ch. Nathaniel, Robert, Joshua, Solomon, Hannah, and Mary. * JOSEPH, Newbury, s. of John of the same, rep. 1690-2, by w.

Aug. 1672, William Carr. ROBERT, Providence 1645, may have been only trans. inhab. ROBERT, Salisbury, s. of Robert of the same, m. 30 Oct. 1684, Martha Goldwyer, perhaps d. of George, had Robert, b. 3 Sept. 1687; and Sarah, 3 Feb. 1690; was freem. that yr. and d. 22 Aug. of the same. SAMUEL, Falmouth, 1688, s. of Richard. Willis I. 143, 190. Four of this name had, in 1829, been gr. at Harv. and two at Dartm. coll. PILE, WILLIAM, Salisbury 1659, rem. to Nantucket, thence to Dover, bef. July 1663. PILLING, or PILLEN, JOHN, Kittery 1639, a fisherman, was prob. of Dover 1653. PILSBURY, ABEL, Newbury, s. of William, by w. Mary had Joshua, b. 12 Apr. 1679; John, 13 Sept. 1682; Jacob, 20 Mar. 1687; Abel, 12 Apr. 1690; and Elizabeth 20 Mar. 1694. CALEB and INCREASE, brs. of the preced. were of Newbury 1678, but we kn. no more of either exc. that the former d. 4 July 1680, acc. Coffin, wh. says nothing of the latter aft. his b. JOB, Newbury, eldest br. of the preced. freem. 1670, m. 5 Apr. 1677, Catharine Gavett, had Daniel, b. 20 Sept. 1678; and Josiah, 17 Apr. 1686. MOSES, Newbury, br. of the preced. freem. 1673, m. 1668, Susanna, wid. of Lionel Worth, d. of John Whipple, had Joseph, b. 6 June 1670; Dorothy, 9 Apr. 1675; Susanna, 5 Feb. 1677; Judith, 16 Mar. 1679; Caleb, 27 July 1681; and Hannah, 3 May 1686; but I doubt that the last five must have been by a sec. w. Coffin's page does not allude to d. of the first. Yet as w. of Worth she had brot. a number. WILLIAM, Dorchester 1641, m. that yr. prob. Dorothy Crosby, had Deborah, b. 16 Apr. 1642; Job. 26 Oct. 1643, Moses; Abel; rem. to Newbury, there had Caleb, 28 Jan. 1654; William, 27 July 1656; Experience, 10 Apr. 1658; Increase, 10 Oct. 1660; Thankful, 22 Apr. 1662; and Joshua, 30 June 1671; freem. 1668, d. 19 June 1686, aged 71.

Nine of this name had, in 1834, been gr. of N. E. coll. PIMORE, THOMAS, New Haven, a propr. 1685. PINCKNEY, PHILIP, Fairfield 1650, perhaps he was not there much [[438]] aft. 1653, certain, was at East Chester, 1665. His s. John liv. there 1690, and perhaps he had other ch. beside Abigail, wh. m. David Osborn. PINDAR, PINDER, PYNDER, or PINTER, HENRY, Ipswich 1642, perhaps was f. of Mary, who. m. 21 Mar. 1643, Solomon Martin, and of Joanna, wh. m. 14 Nov. 1643, Valentine Rowell. He had come prob. as early as 1635 at least, for in that yr. emb. at London, in the Susan and Ellen, to come hither, were Mary, aged 53, with six ch.; Francis, 20; Mary, 17, Joanna, 14; Ann, 12; Catharine, 10; and John, 8. JOHN, Ipswich 1648, may have been s. of the preced. m. a. d. of Theophilus Wilson, and had s. Thomas; and perhaps rem. to Watertown, there d. 14 Apr. 1662. SAMUEL, Ipswich 1683. PINGRY, PINGREW, PINGREE, or PENGRY, AARON, Ipswich 1648 * MOSES, Ipswich 1642, perhaps br. of the preced. a saltmaker, m. Abigail, d. of the first Robert Clement, was rep. 1665, and deac. d. 1695, aged prob. 85 yrs. JOHN, prob. s. of Aaron or Moses, took lease of the sch. farm in 1680, m. Faith, perhaps d. of the first Joseph Jewett. PINTON, NICHOLAS, Lynn 1647, perhaps worked at the iron mine, rem. to New Haven, there wrought at the iron works, by w. Elizabeth wh. d. 1667, had Ruth, Hannah, Mary, Thomas, and Robert; and d. Apr. 1676. His inv. amount, only to L43; but that was a season of extreme depresssion. The spelling is Dodd's, but Sylvester Judd read the rec. Pineon. Ruth m. at Lynn, 28 Dec. 1657, James Moore. ROBERT, Lynn 1647, may have been s. of the preced. THOMAS, Sudbury 1661, may have been s. of Nicholas, sett. at New Haven, by w. Mercy had Christiana, Mercy, and Abigail, and Experience; and d. 10 Oct. 1710. Doubts as to this name have been express. in Conn. for it might easily be read Pineon, or Pineo, and the sound of either is not much unlike the others, it is said, and was seldom uttered in public. PINKHAM JOHN, Dover 1665, s. of Richard, in 1671 had gr. from his f. of most of his prop. on condit. of support. him for life, and m. Rose, d. of the first Richard Otis, had Richard, Thomas, Amos, Otis, Solomon, James, Rose, Elizabeth Sarah, and John; 7 s. 3 ds. RICHARD, Dover 1648, hr. to call the people to ch. by beat. the drum. RICHARD, Dover, s. of the preced. m. Elizabeth d. of Thomas Layton the sec. had Richard, Tristram, and John, the last b. 19 Aug. 1696.

Reg. VII. 263. She was Mary, d. of Hon. James Coffin. THOMAS, Dover 1665, perhaps br. of John. PINNEY, PYNNY, HUMPHREY, Dorchester, b. in Somertsh. came, as [[439]] once was thot. in the Mary and John, 1630, but Stiles, in Hist. of Windsor, 745, shows that in 1631 he was engag. in Eng. on will of his uncle Edmund, freem. 14 May 1634, m. at Dorchester, Mary, d. of George Hull, had Samuel; rem. to Windsor, there had Nathaniel, b. Dec. 1641, bapt. 2 Jan. 1642 (not 1641 as 2 Jan. in that yr. of new reckon. style was Saturday); Mary, bapt. 16 June 1644; Sarah, 19 Nov. bapt. 3 Dec. 1648; John, bapt. 19 Oct. 1651; Abigail, 26 Nov. 1654; and Isaac 24, bapt. 28 Feb. 1664. All these ch. were liv. when he made his will, June 1682. He d. 20 Aug. 1683; and his wid. wh. d. 18 Aug. 1684, names in her will 12 Sept. bef. all her ch. but of Abigail only her three ch. leav. the inference that she was d. Mary m. 6 July, 1665, Abraham Phelps; Sarah was sec. w. 20 Dec. 1676, of the sec. William Phelps; and Abigail m. (23 Dec. 1667, acc. Stiles, 746, but as she was then only 13 yrs. 10 days old, I prefer my earlier informat. as to date) 1677, John Adams. ISSAC, Windsor, youngest s. of the preced. m. a. 1685, Sarah, d. of Daniel Clark, had Isaac, b. 17 Jan. 1687; Jonathan, 23 Oct. 1688; Mary, 4 Mar. 1690; Sarah, 7 Mar. 1692 or 3; Humphrey, 5 Sept. 1694; Elizabeth 6 Jan. 1697; and Noah, 24 Jan. 1703 beside Hannah, and Daniel, whose dates mare unkn. to either Stiles, or Goodwin. JOHN, Charlestown, m. 4 July 1682, Elizabeth d. of Thomas Rand, had John, Edmund, and Elizabeth all bapt. 11 Sept. 1687; yet I am not inform. in whose right the ordinance was perform. nor is any thing more kn. of him, the w. or ch. at C. that he was not the s. of Humphrey, is well inferr. from what is told me. that the Windsor John d. 1697, without ch. NATHANIEL, windsor, s. of Humphrey, freem. 1667, m. 21 July, 1670, Sarah Phelps, wid of Samuel, d. of Edward Griswold, had Nathaniel, b. 11 May 1671; and Sarah, 11 Oct. 1673; and d. 7 Aug. 1676.

S. ch. 26 June 1670. He made his will, 15 Oct. 1678, republ. it 16 Apr. 1686, pro. 3 June foll. in wh. he names eldest s. John, but to other s. and ds. gives L10 ea. without naming, and appoints w. Ann, with Ann, with Arthur Mason Excors. One Ann P. at Boston prob. his wid. d. Monday, 6 Dec. 1625 in 105th yr. it is said, in Franklin's N. E. Courant of Saturday foll. tho. something exagger. as we kn. from her testim. less then twelve yrs. bef. that she was 89. Aft. this age, and even bef. people are too apt to grow old. She was wont to tell, that she went over in the first boat that cross. Charles river, in 1630, to what is now Boston, that she was the first that jump. ashore, etc. Of that exact truth of this pleasant myth, the possib. is not to be denied; but I would fully learn three points -- the name of the sh. in wh. she arr. and wh. brot. her; and still more import. is her maiden name. Tradit. has not ascertain. the fact, and possib. it was not worth adding, whether she was the only one of her sex, that cross from Charlestown in the first boat. Small deduct. from the full tale of 105 yrs. will anybody make on looking at the portrait tak. (when she is call. 100 yrs. 3 mos) in 1721, Preserv. in the Historical Society's Collect. tho. to have liv. near 58 yrs. aft. her eleventh ch. was b. ought to have satisf. the appetite of any decent worshipper of tradit. without being. her over in Gov. Winthrop's comp. Still a dozen or two of yrs. could easily be spared, if the circumstance of the young maiden's jumping from the boat on approach, the shore in Boston harbor, had made stronger impression on her mind, then the petty concomit. of time and fellow-passeng. in cross. [[450]] the sea or the river. WILLIAM, Boston, s. of the preced. ar. co. 1679, by w. Margaret had William, b. 21 Dec. 1687, prob. d. soon; and William, again, 2 Apr. 1690. He was gr.f. of col.

Tradit. long assert. the birthright of Devonsh. but a less gen. tradit. offers the claim to a hamlet far distant in the N. within two miles of Burnley, Co. Lancaster, and some claim is put forth in favor of Wales. the Christian name is variously distort. Some make this s. to have the same name as his f. or rather call the f. Eldad. Others write it Eldred, wh. might easily be mistak. in the old engrossing hand. Edward sometimes is proposed, and Eltweed more commonly appears than any other, but to me it seems the double e. was meant for oo.

Mary, d. of George Dyer, had Samuel, wh. d. 2 Oct. 1657; Elizabeth and Martha, tw. 17 Feb. 1658, both d. in few days; Judith, 16 Oct. 1659; Thankful, 15 Jan. 1662; George 20 Jan. 1666; and Mindwell, 24 Aug. 1667; and perhaps William; was constable 1659, and d. 4 Apr. 1690, call. serg. and Judge Sewall says he d. suddenly. His wid. it is said, d. 16 Feb. 1711. Thankful m. 17 Nov. 1682, Philip Withington, and d. 23 Dec. 1711. Rebecca P. aged 18, came in the Bevis from Southampton, 1638, one of the serv. of Christopher batt. of the city of Salisbury. Of this name two had been gr. at Harv. one at Yale, and six at other N. E. coll. in 1826. PONDER, JOHN, Westfield, m. 26 June 1668, Temperance, d. of Thomas Buckland, had Susanna, b. 11 Mar. 1669; John, Nov. 1670, d. young; Mary, 30 Sept. 1672; Elizabeth 3 Feb. 1675; Nathaniel, 3 Sept. 1677; John, again, 11 Mar. 1680; Thomas, 5 Mar. 1682; Martha, 27 Feb. 1684; and Sarah, 28 July 1686, d. at 4 yrs. He d. 1712, and his wid. d. 27 Oct. 1732. PONTON, or PONTING, RICHARD, Boston, a husbandman, adm. of the ch. 28 Dec. 1649, had been bound, 1 Jan. 1641, for eight yrs. with his [[454]] own assent, to John Read of Braintree, rem. to Hartford 1662, freem. 1663, d. or rem. bef. 1669 PONTUS, WILLIAM, Plymouth 1633, in 1643 not in the list of those able to bear arms, i. e. under the age of 60, d. 9 Feb. 1653, have. made his will 9 Sept. 1650, leav. two chl. only, with very small est. Mary wh. had m. 31 Oct. 1645, James Glass, and next, 1657, Philip Delano; and Hannah, wh. had m. 18 Dec. 1644, John Churchill, and next, 25 June 1669, Giles Rickard, and d. 22 Dec. 1690. POOLE, POOL, or POLE, BENJAMIN, Weymouth, s. of Edward, was a soldier on Conn. riv. in Philip's war, 1676, and of him I hear no more. EDWARD, Newport 1638, prob. was of Weymouth most of his days, had Samuel, Isaac, Joseph, Benjamin, John, Sarah, and Jacob, nam. in this order in his will of 22 Aug. 1664, of wh. his w. was Extrix. pro. 16 Sept. foll. of wh. other three last were minors, and prob. Samuel the eldest. See Geneal. Reg. XII. 12 and 13. The w.'s name is not seen. ELIZABETH, Taunton 1637, the chief cause of build. at T. was maiden sis. of William, and elder than him, of a good fam. in heraldry, as well as religion, may be regard. as one of the most decid. proofs of the deep roots that puritanism had attain. in Eng. She d. 21 May 1654, aged 65. hav. made her will four days bef. in wh. John, eldest s. of her br. was nam. Excor. Abstr. of it is in Geneal. Reg. V. 262. See Winthrop I. 252. HENRY, Boston, d. 14 Sept. 1643; may have been inf. ISAAC, Weymouth, s. of Edward, by w. Elishama had Margeret, b. 24 Aug. 1669; and perhaps others not on rec. or he may have rem. JOHN, Cambridge 1632, went to Lynn bef. 1638, when he had there 200 acres, and last of Reading, where his w. Margaret d. 29 Apr. 1662, and he d. 1 Apr. 1667. His will of 14 Feb. preced. made Jonathan his s. Excor. names other ch. Mary, and her h. Matthew Edwards, and her ch. Mary, Sarah, and Elizabeth also s.-in-law, William Barrett, whose w. Sarah (d. not of testat. but of Richard Champney) was d. also her ch. John and Lydia; also gr.ch. John, Sarah, and Mary P. wh. I presume to be ch. of his s. Jonathan; and lastly br. Armitage, and his three s. sis. Armitage and cous. Godfrey Armitage, and his w. and two ch. beside Mr. Dane of Andover, and his w. whose relationship is less appar. JOHN, Boston 1670, s. of William, merch. freem. 1673, with prefix of respect. was disting. says Baylis I. 287, as an officer in Philip's war, yet possib. by that author mistake. for the Reading gent. He m. 28 Mar. 1672, Elizabeth d. of Gov. Brenton, not Benton, as in Geneal. Reg. V. 402. His w. was bapt. as the O. S. ch. rec. shows "at a ch. meeting at her ho." a very uncommon favor, if not unexampl. bef. that, in our country, and John, Elizabeth and Courtney, his and her ch. were bapt. some days aft.; William, 11 Jan. 1680; and Jane, 12 Nov. 1682. Bef. that time no ch. [[455]] in N. E. had been bapt. exc. on the Lord's day, as Sunday was call. in law and popul. usage. JOHN, Weymouth, s. of Edward of the same, by w. Eliz had Susanna, b. 17 Dec. 1679; and by w. Joanna had Hannah, 24 Oct. 1687; and Joanna, 21 Dec. 1688. JOHN, Beverly, a carpenter, m. Sarah, wid. of Richard Woodbury, wh. d. 13 Nov. 1716, had Jonathan, b. 1694; Miriam,, 1695; Robert, 1697; Ebenezer, 1699; and Joshua, 1700; rem. to Gloucester, and had Caleb, 1701; and John, 1703. For sec. w. he had Deborah Dodge, d. prob. of Samuel, but she d. 1 Feb. 1718; and his third w. Elizabeth Holmes, perhaps d.; of John of Salem, d. 13 July 1720; and he took fourth w. in May 1721, Abigail Ballard of Lynn, says Babson, and had Return in 1722; and Abigail, 1725; and he d. 19 May 1727. * JONATHAN, Reading, s. of the first John, had Sarah, b. 22 July 1656; Judah, a d. 1 Sept. 1658, prob. d. young; Mary, 21 Aug. 1660, d. next yr.; Mary, again, 14 Nov. 1662; and prob. a John; was much valu. in Philip's war, a capt. under major Appleton at Hudley, and Presid. of the counc. of war in the winter of 1675-6, rep. 1677, d. 24 Dec. 1678 aged 44. JOSEPH, Weymouth, s. of Edward, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 6 Dec. 1674; Mary, 20 Jan. 1681; Benjamin, 9 Feb. 1683; Margaret, 22 Apr. 1688; and by w. Mary had Abigail, 30 June 1690. RICHARD, New London, d. a 20 Apr. 1662, without w. or ch. gave his est. to w. and childr. of George Tongue. SAMUEL, Boston, adm. of the ch. 19 June 1642, call. merch. with prefix of respect, had Ann, bapt. 7 Aug. next a. 8 days old; yet I kn. nothing more of him,unless he were that capt. wh. m. Silence, d. of Rev. Peter Saxton of Scituate, wh. d. bef. 1 Oct. 1651; or perhaps of Reading, where Eaton calls one early sett. by his name. SAMUEL, Weymouth, s. prob. eldest of Edward, by w. Mercy had Mary, b. 20 Nov. 1668. * WILLIAM, Dorchester, perhaps as early as 1630, yet most remarkable is it, that he was at Taunton sev. yrs. aft. 1637, there call. capt. rep. 1641, being br. of the patron saint of that newer town, but in rec.of D. describ. as town, clk. ten yrs. and oft. sch. master, while we do not learn whether these functions were fulfil. bef. he went or aft. his return, or partly both. My opinion is that not long aft. the d. of his sis. from whose will we learn more than by all other means a. his fam. he came back to D.and pass. the last 18 or 20 yrs. Certain. at D.he had Theophilus, b. 27 May, bapt. 3 June 1660, and his may render prob. that his elder s. and ds. John, Nathaniel, Timothy, Mary, and Bethesda, were b. at T. He d. at D. 24 Feb. 1675, aged 81; and his wid. wh. had been m. as early, I judge, as June 1638, perhaps Mary, d. of John Richmond, d. near the end of 1690. Timothy was drown. at T. 15 Dec. 1667; of Nathaniel nothing is heard exc. in the will of his aunt Elizabeth and it may be that he d. young; nor is more told of Theophilus [[456]] than his b. and bapt.; Mary was sec. w. of Daniel Henchman, and Bethesda Poole (whose f. show. his relig. we may regret, more than his judgm. in taking for the d.'s name that of the intermit. fountain, of wh. the power is so beautiful. told in the narrat. of the evangelist) m. 1686 John Filer, as his sec. w. He had s. William, wh. was bapt. 20 June 1658 at Roxbury. Baylies derives the fam. from Taunton in Co. Somerset. WILLIAM, Brookhaven, L. I. 1680, perhaps was s. of the preced. Thompson. POOR, or POORE, BENJAMIN, Newbury, s. of Samuel the first, m. 13 Apr. 1696, Mary, wid. of George Hardy, who d. 8 Aug. 1707, had Sarah, b. 6 Sept. 1697; and Ann, 31 Oct. 1700. DANIEL, Andover, is that youth, I suppose, aged 14, whose name on the list of passeng. in the Bevis from Southampton, 1638, is Dayell, coming with Alce or Alice P. aged 20, prob. his sis. and Samuel P. 18, perhaps their br. and others, under the designat. of serv. of Richard Dummer, m. 20 Oct. 1650, Mary Farnum, perhaps d. of Ralph; and d. 1713, it is said, aged 85, wh. is one of the very few instances of under estimate. Only s. Daniel. and John, are nam.; and of John the d. is so early as 24 Dec. 1690, that perhaps he was never m. But seven fem. Poors are as early found to m. and all may have been his ds. viz. Martha, with Jon Granger, 9 Feb. 1680; Hannah, with Francis Dane, jr. 16 Nov. 1681; Eliz, with Jacob Marston, 7 Apr. 1686; Priscilla, with Abraham Moore, 14 Dec. 1687; Deborah, with Timothy Osgood, 29 May 1689; Ruth, with John Stevens, 20 Dec. 1689; and Lucy, with Samuel Austin, 11 Oct. 1691. DANIEL Andover, s. of the preced. by w. Michitable had Daniel, Mehitable, John, Samuel, Joseph, and Thomas; yet the dates of b. are not kn. of either, and a from the rec. is kn. that Mehitable d. 14 Jan. 1691, prob. quite young; while of Thomas, we doubt whether it be this s. of Daniel, or ano. whose d. is ment. 7 Feb. 1695. He d. 1735, aged 79. EDWARD, Newbury, s. of John the first, or perhaps of Samuel, by w. Elizabeth had Stephen, b. 20 Apr. 1688; Elizabeth 21 Mar. 1690; and Joseph, 15 Apr. 1704. HENRY, Newbury, s. of John, m. 12 Sept. 1679, Abigail, d. of sec. Thomas Hale, had Abigail, b. 9 Sept. 1680; Henry, 31 Jan. 1682; Jeremiah, 10 Jan. 1684; Mary, 10 Apr. 1686, d. soon; Mary, again, 20 Sept. 1687; Hannah, 19 July 1692; Sarah, 18 Jan. 1694; Benjamin, 1696; and Daniel, 1700; was taxed in Rowley 1691. JOHN, Newbury, an early sett. said to have emigr. from Co. Wilts, was, I think, elder br. of Daniel and Samuel; had Jonathan; John, b. 21 June 1642; Hannah, 14 Oct. 1645, d. young; Elizabeth 8 Nov. 1647; Hannah, again, 25 Mar. 1649; Henry, 13 Dec. 1650; Mary, 6 Mar. 1652, d. at 6 mos.; Joseph, 4 Oct. 1653; Mary, again, 12 Dec. 1654, wh. m. 6 Dec. 1670, Samuel Pearson; Lydia, 5 Dec. 1656; Edward, 4 Apr.

JOSEPH, Newbury, s. of Samuel, m. 16908, Ann Johnson, had Catharine, b. 18 Feb. 1699; and Joseph, 9 Apr. 1701. NICHOLAS, Lynn 1637. Lewis. SAMUEL, Newbury, prob. that passeng. in the Bevis from Southampton, 1638, aged 18, wh. may be br. of Daniel, Alce, and John, fellow-passeng. had Rebecca, b. 7 Feb. 1649; Mary, 21 Mar. 1651; Samuel, 14 Oct. 1653; Edward, 27 May 1656; Elizabeth 21 Jan. 1659; Joseph, 10 June 1661; Sarah, 4 June 1664; Benjamin 22 Feb. 1667; and Mary, 21 Feb. 1671; and he was freem. 1673, d. 31 Dec. 1683, by Coffin call. 60 yrs. old, but prob. was 3 yrs. more. SAMUEL, Newbury, s. of the preced. m. 16 Feb. 1680, Rachel, d. of John Bailey, and Rebecca, b. 18 Jan. 1681; Samuel, 3 June 1682, wh. liv. to 11 July 1769; Judith, d. soon; Sarah, 12 July 1686; Eleanor, 15 Dec. 1689; and Rebecca, again, 1 Mar. 1694. THOMAS, Andover 1645, may be he whose d. is on rec. 1695. POPE, BENJAMIN, Salem, s. of Joseph the first, m.

EPHRAIM, Boston, d. 1677, in his will of 27 June 1676, names only Ephraim, and Elizabeth as his ch. The s. d. of smallpox, Nov. 1678. JOHN, Dorchester, came prob. 1633, with w. Jane, was a shoemaker, freem. 3 Sept. 1634, perhaps brot. two or three ch. and here had John,b. 30 June 1635; Nathan, wh. was b. as is said, but certain. 1641; and by w. Alice had Thomas, 27 Dec. 1643; and perhaps that [[458]] Margaret, w. of John P. whose gr.-st. says she d. 20 Oct. 1702, or 1672, as sometimes read, aged 74, was his third w. He was one of the founders of the new ch. for Richard Mather, 1636; d. 12 Apr. 1646. Of his will the abstr. may be seen in Geneal. Reg. VII. 229; yet why it was not pro. bef. 5 June 1649 and inv. delay. to four days preced. would be difficult to guess, unless we suppose the last fig. to be erron. It ment. w. and a d. but no s. four serv. br. Thomas, and Joshua, my sis.s h. We might by this docum. judge the testator to have been a weaver, rather than a shoemaker. But early acco. is sadly confus. of all the Dorchester Popes; and the most patient of their inquir. cannot wholly unravel. One Jane, wh. d. 12 Jan. 1663, in her will of 18 Apr. preced. gives to her d. Patience, w. of Edward Blake; but whether she was w. of this John, or when that d. was b. I find not. See Geneal. Reg. XI. 339. JOHN, Dorchester, perhaps s. of the preced. by w. Beatrice had John, b. 1 July 1658; Jane, 12 May 1677; and Joseph, 17 Oct. 1680, d. in one wk. as says Geneal. reg. V. 465, and adds that his wid. Beatrice was at Lancaster, 1700. In Hist. of D. 74, John P. sen. d. 19 Oct. 1686, but this may not of necessity deny a former John, any more than it would make Margaret w. of John, wh. d. Oct. 1672, as it declares, the same Margaret left wid. of John 19 Oct. 1686. JOHN, Springfield 1678, prob. rem. to Windsor 1683, there d. that yr. unm. it is thot. JOSEPH, Salem, came in the Mary and John of London, 1634, freem. 17 May 1637, there by w.

His will of 11 Sept. 1666, pro. 27 June foll. made w. Gertrude extrix, and name. the two ds. and four s. last ment. Damaris m. Joshua Buffum; and Hannah m. Caleb Buffum.

His will of 25 Jan. pro. 3 Mar. of that yr. names all the ch. but the first two, and notes that the eldest d. was infirm of mind. as prob. had been her mo. at least she was much afflict. in the witchcraft days; also names Mary, and Sarah, ch. of his s. Nathaniel. dec. bef. 1711. RICHARD, Dorchester 1635, but Mr. Clap thinks was not long there, and he call. br. by Joseph in his will.

Reg. 465, where it adds that he m. 18 Nov. 1681, Margaret Long. THOMAS, Suffield, by w. Margaret, had Mindwell, b. 1687; and his w. d. next yr. at Springfield. One of these two Thomases prob. tho. wh. of them may be hard to guess, was of Hempstead on L. I. WALTER, Charlestown 1634, d. bef. 1640, leav. one ch. to wh. the town made a gr. Frothingham, 80.

But his will of the day preced. was not carr. to Court bef. June of next yr. It gives eldest s. John, £100; sec. James, £60; Samuel, Nathaniel, Rebecca, Rose, Mary, and Ann, ea. £30. His wid. was bur. 20 days aft. [[461]] him. Sarah m. 24 Oct. 1644, Joseph Judson, Roxbury, freem. 5 Nov. 1633, had w.

To his eldest s.

NATHANIEL, Salem 1638, had liv. elsewhere, for he was freem. 17 Apr. 1637, and is not in Felt's fine list of ch. mem. NATHANIEL, Windsor, youngest s. of John the first of the same, and the only one, prob. b. on this side of the ocean, in 1669 is among the freem. of Stratford, where he m. Hannah, d. of Philip Groves, had Hannah, b. 1665; Sarah, 1667; Ruth, 1669; and Nathaniel, 1672. By sec. w. Elizabeth sis. of his former w. he had John, b. 1674; Samuel, 1675, d. soon; and Mary, 1677.

By sec. w. he had Joshua, 5 Nov. 1718, at New Haven, whither he had rem.; Richard, 22 Aug. 1722; and Lydia; and d. 1740, prob. as his will, of 13 Nov. 1738, was pro. Feb. 1740. ROBERT, Farmington, one of the first sett. m. 7 Nov. 1644, Mary, d. of Thomas Scott of Hartford, had Mary, b. 24 Feb. 1646; John, 12 Nov. 1648; Thomas, 29 Oct. 1650; Robert, 12 Nov. 1652, d. without ch. soon aft. his f.; Elizabeth 11 Jan. 1654; Joanna, bapt. 6 Jan. 1656; Sarah, 20 Dec. 1657; Benjamin, 18 Mar. 1660; Ann, Apr. 1664; and Hezibah, b. 4, bapt. 11 Mar. 1666. He took sec. w. Hannah Freeman, wid. of Stephen of Newark, and d. 1689, for inv. was giv. 18 Sept. of that yr. Sarah m. Abraham [[463]] Andrews of the same; and Thomas, not his br. of Milford, m. ano. d. Elizabeth and Ann m. 1 Apr. 1685, John Brown of Middletown. ROBERT, Northampton, m. 1688, Sarah Burt, had John, b. 1689, wh. with his mod. d. soon. In 1691, he m. Elizabeth Rising, had John, again, 1692; Elizabeth 1695; James, 1698; William, 1702; and Thomas, 1705. Both William and his f. d. 1712. ROGER, Watertown, went home prob. m. 1637, and again. came in the Confidence, from Southampton, 1638, aged 55, a husbandman of Long Sutton, Hants, with Joan, Susan, Mary, and Rose, his ds. was freem. 22 May 1639, selectman, 1648, and d. 3 Apr. 1654, aged 71. His wid. Grace, wh. had been wid. of William and first of Thomas Rogers, d. 3 June 1662, in her will naming gr.ch. Daniel Smith, and John, Martha, Mary, Sarah, and Joseph Sherman. These last were part of the ch. of capt. John Sherman, wh. had m. her d. Martha; and ano. d. Elizabeth had m. Daniel Smith. Hereby we discov. that P. had been 1687, with part of his fam. at W. for this d. Elizabeth is not nam. among passeng. in the Confidence; nor is the w. Grace, wh. was left, no doubt, at W. in her h.'s absence to gov. the fam. but this is made more cert. from our kn. that Sherman's w. had her first ch. b. here, less than five mos. aft. the arr. of that ship. SAMUEL, Salem, d. a. 1659, had not long bef. m. Hannah, d. of William Dodge. His will of 10 Feb. in that yr. made in anticipat. of a voyage to Barbadoes, and the inv. of 22 June 1660, by the wid. names s. John. Perhaps, then, Hannah was sec. w. His wid. m. Thomas Woodbury. SAMUEL, Windsor, s. of the first John of the same, b. prob. in Eng. m. Hannah, d. of Thomas Stanley, rem. to Hadley 1659, had there, Samuel, b. 6 Apr. 1660, said to be the first b. of that town; one b. and d. 26 Apr. 1662; Thomas, 17 Apr. 1663, wh. d. 1668, as Stiles says; Hezekiah, 7 Jan. 1665; John, 12 Dec. 1666; Hannah 1670; Mehitable, 15 Sept. 1673; Experience, 5 Aug. 1676; Ichabod, 17 June 1678; and Nathaniel, 1680; but Stiles adds, Thomas, again, 1683; Hannah m. 29 Mar. 1689, John Nash, and d. within two mos. All the other eight ch. were liv. at his d. 6 Sept. foll. and also at the time his wid. d. 18 Dec. 1708. Mehitable m. Nathaniel Goodwin. He was freem. 1684, much engag. in trade, owned part of the sh. Northern Adventure, and left good est. Of his seven s. Experience, and Hezekiah, are bef. ment. Thomas, John, and perhaps Nathaniel, sett. in Lebanon; Ichabod in Hatfield, and Samuel only, cont. at Hadley. SAMUEL, Farmington, youngest s. of the first Thomas, m. 18 Feb. 1686, Martha Freeman, perhaps d. of Stephen of Newark, N.J. to join with him in ch. commun. and had Stephen, b. 4 bapt. 10 Apr. 1687; Hannah, 17 June 1688; Samuel, b. 7, bapt. 20 Sept. 1691; Sarah, b. 15, bapt. 19 Nov. 1693; and Martha, 1, bapt. 5 July 1696; Ruth, b. 26 Jan. 1699; Mary, Sept. 1700; Joseph, 12 Dec. 1702; Lois, 18 Mar. 1705; Stephen, again, 16 Jan. 1707; and Rachel, 3 or 30 Apr. 1710. He was a deac. SAMUEL, Hadley, eldest s. of the first Samuel of the same, at one time rep. an extensive trader with Eng. after judge, and sheriff of the Co. in wh. he was he wealthiest man at his d. 29 July 1722. He m. 22 Feb. 1684, Joanna Cook, d. of Aaron, had fourteen ch. but only seven outliv. him, four ds. out of eight, [[464]] and these s. Samuel, b. 25 May 1685; Aaron, 19 July 1689, H. C. 1708, the first min. of Medford; and Eleazer, 25 Feb. 1698. To bring up his gr.s. Samuel to coll. he left £100, and he was gr. of H. C. 1730, bec. third min. of Shirborn. The artic. in Geneal. Reg. IX. 54, on the Porter fam. is eminent. for its merit in withhold. dates. STEPHEN, Andover, freem. 1691. THOMAS, Hartford, m. 20 Nov. 1644, Sarah, d. of Stephen Hart, rem. to Farmington, had Sarah, b. 1646; Thomas, 1648; Joanna, 1652; wh. all were bapt. 24 July 1653, prob. but not, as in Geneal. Reg.

He d. 1697, and his will of 3 Mar. 1691, names only Thomas, Dorothy, and Samuel. Sarah m. 4 Apr. 1664, Nathaniel Winchell; and Joanna m. Nov. 1676, Stephen Taylor, and next, 7 Feb. 1708, Samuel Tudor; Dorothy m. Jacob Overman of Carolina. THOMAS, Weymouth, had Thomas, posthum. b. 3 Feb. 1673. THOMAS, Farmington, s. of Thomas of the same, m. Lois, d. of Timothy Stanley, had Lois, b. 1670; and only s. Timothy, 12 Nov. 1672; was a deac. and d. 1711. Some of these fams. have been mark. for longev. Rev. Nehemiah, H. C. 1745, of Ashfield, d. 29 Feb. 1820, in his 100th yr. Col. Joshua, Y. C. 1754, d. 1825, in 95th yr. and Rev. Nathaniel, b. 16 Jan. 1745, H. C. 1768, of Conway, N. H. d. 1836. THOMAS, Farmington, 1682, s. of Robert, m. May 1678, Abigail, d. of Samuel Cowles, and by her had Abigail, b. 24 June 1680; William, bapt. 29 Oct. 1682; John, 8 July 1686; Mary, 2 June 1689; Nathaniel, 27 Mar. 1692, prob. not 28, as Geneal. Reg. XII. 150, says, for that was Monday; Abigail, 8 July 1694; Robert, 16 May 1697; and Elizabeth b. 1 June 1703. THOMAS, Windsor, youngest s. of Samuel of the same, acc. Stiles, rem. to Coventry, by w. Thankful had Mary, b. 16 Nov. 1708; Mary 16 Nov. 1710 (I copy Stiles, wh. says both these ds. were m. but my incredul. fears mist.); Jonathan, 20 Mar. 1713; and Noah, 24 Aug. 1715. His w. d. 1736, and he had sec. w. Rebecca. Seventy-four of this name, of wh. sixteen were clerg. Farmer says, had been gr. in 1834 at the N. E. coll. of these twenty-three, includ. six clerg. were of Yale alone, and twenty, includ. seven clerg. at Harv. leav. only three clerg. among the thirty-one scholars at the other N. E. coll. of wh. Dart. had fourteen. PORTIS, or PORTOUS, ROBERT, Boston 1645, m. 3 Nov. 1659, Alice Greenwood. PORTMORT, PORMONT, PURMONT, or PERMONT, LAZARUS, Dover, eldest ch. of Philemon, b. on our side of the water, there was taxed 1659. He was, I imagine, f. of Joseph, of Newcastle 1685. PHILEMON, Boston, adm. of the ch. with w. Susan, near the end of Aug. 1634, prob. brot. one ch. if not more, was freem. 6 May 1635, and the first gram. sch.-master, had Lazarus, b. 28 Feb. bapt. 6 Mar. 1636; Ann, 5, bapt. 15 Apr. 1638; favored the cause of Wheelwright, and followed him to Exeter and aft. to Wells, had letters of dism. from our ch. Jan. 1639; but prob. came back, aft. prob. not a few yrs. had Pedaiah, b. 3 June [[465]] 1640; his w. d. 29 Dec. 1642; and by sec. w. Elizabeth had Martha, bapt. 29 May, but town rec. says b. 16 June 1653. His d. Elizabeth b. prob. in Eng. m. 24 Nov. 1652, Nathaniel Adams; but ano. pretend. rec. says Samuel Norden, in Geneal. Reg. XI. 202. Great variety is found in the letters or sound of this first sch.master's name, as Porment, Pormet, Purmount, etc. In Allen's Biogr. Dict. the trouble is avoid. but not in a satisfactory manner. POST, ABRAHAM, Saybrook 1664, s. prob. of Stephen, freem. 1665, ensign 1667, had Stephen, b. 3 Dec. 1664; Ann, 4 May 1667; Abraham, 9 June 1669; James, 14 Mar. 1671; Esther, 14 Dec. 1672, d. in few days; Daniel, 28 Nov. 1673; Gurdon, 27 May 1676; Joseph, 6 Feb. 1678; Mary, 21 Feb. 1680; and Elinor, 10 Feb. 1682; and his w. d. 23 Mar. 1684. In the will of Uncas, four thousand acres were devis. to him, yet in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 234, his name is Past. ISAAC, Huntington, L. I. 1666. Thompson. JOHN, Woburn, m. 27 Feb. 1650, Susanna Sutton; but whether she had ch. or how long she liv. is not told; yet I find he m. sec. w. 18 Nov. 1662, Mary Tyler, and had Mary, b. 29 Sept. 1664; Joanna, 13 Sept. 1666; and John, 14 Apr. 1669. JOHN, Saybrook, s. of Stephen, b. prob. in Eng. m. in the last of Mar. 1652, Esther, d. of William Hyde, had Margaret, b. 21 Feb. 1653; Elizabeth 22 Feb. 1655; John, 12 Apr. 1657; and Sarah, 6 Nov. 1659; rem. with first sett. to Norwich, there had Abigail, 6 Nov. 1664, d. at 11 yrs.; Samuel, 8 Mar. 1668; Hannah, Oct. 1671; and Lydia, 11 Mar. 1674; was in 1663, accept. to be made free, yet seems to have missed for sev. yrs. of taking the o. wh. the Dept. Gov. was requested to admin. in 1686 and again in 1668. In the list of 1669 he is includ. and his w. d. 13 Nov. 1703. He d. 27 Nov. 1710. Lydia m. Abel Moore, and next, Joseph Harris, both of New London. JOHN, Norwich, eldest s. of the preced. m. 24 Dec. 1685, Sarah, eldest d. of John Reynolds, had Sarah, b. 1 Dec. 1686; John, 14 July 1689; and d. 15 July of next yr. His wid. d. 11 May 1703. RICHARD, Southampton, L. I. 1640, nam. by Thompson, may easily be thot. the same as that one of the first sett. of New London 1646 or 7, a blacksmith, wh. sold his est. 1651 or 2 to Amos Rirchardson, and rem. but whither is not heard, nor whether he had ch. or not. STEPHEN, Cambridge 1634, rem. 1636 to Hartford, an orig. propr. had John, Thomas, and Abraham, prob. Catharine, wh. m. Alexander Chalker, in 1649 was of Saybrook, where he d. 16 Aug. 1659. THOMAS, Saybrook, s. prob. of the preced. m. Jan. 1656, Mary Andrews, had Sarah, b. Nov. 1657; and a. 1660 rem. to Norwich, where his w. d. 1661; and he m. 2 Sept. 1663, Rebecca, d. of Obadiah Bruen, had Thomas, Dec. 1664; Hannah, Feb. 1666; Mary, June 1669; Obadiah; and Joseph. He d. 5 Sept. 1701, and his wid. d. 15 Apr. 1721. [[466]] POSTER, ABEL, is the name giv. to a freem. of Mass. 1674, but where he liv. is unkn. and error is suspect. POTTER, ABEL, Dartmouth, m. 16 Nov. 1669, Rachel, youngest d. of John Warner, rem. to Warwick, in his will of 1692, names eldest s. George, youngest Stephen, and other ch. Abel, Benjamin, and Mary. ANTHONY, Ipswich 1648, m. Elizabeth prob. d. of deac. John Whipple of the same, had sev. ch. wh. with w. outliv. him, as John, Edmund, Elizabeth Kimball, Lydia Putnam, prob. w. of Jonathan, beside Thomas and Anthony. GEORGE, Newport 1638. HUMFREY, Salem, had only ch. Ann, who m. 10 Jan. 1656, Anthony Needham. ICHABOD, Portsmouth, R. I. perhaps s. of Robert, the friend of Gorton, m. Martha, d. of Thomas Hazard. INDIGO, or perhaps INIGO, Charlestown, m. 25 Aug. 1663, Mary Lawrence, d. of John of Groton, may have liv. in some other town, for without find. adm. of hims. or w. to the ch. there, I see that his ch. by w. Mary, viz. Mary, John, Richard, Indigo, Margaret, were all bapt. at C. 24 Apr. 1681, and Margaret, again, 9 July 1682. JOHN was a grantee of Sudbury in 1640, but I ask in vain, where he resid. or any thing else a. him. JOHN, New Haven, perhaps 1639, had John, Hannah, and Samuel, bapt. (not 7, as in Geneal. Reg.

Friday, 6 June of that yr. in the story of whose once being art. 3 of Appx. of Thaumaturgus, Magnalia VI. 38, Mather had gr. satisfact. and that he might defy human credulity makes the wonder, that tho. twenty yrs. a mem. of that ch. he had liv. in most infamous crimes no less than fifty yrs. together.

Roger Williams, d. 25 Aug. 17 leav. wid. Jane, and s. Nicholas, and d. Hope, both under age. He never dwelt at Shaomet, Staples says, tho. of the number of twelve purch. of that territo. an so suffer. very slightly in the monstrous proceed. against Gorton and his comp. at Warwick 1643. Yet he is one of the signers of the declar. of their rights, 20 Nov. 1642. Tradit. has been very rich, and, as usual, very false a. this man, and his s. of the same name. The f. was here to sign the claim of rights in Nov. 1642, and was one of the purch. with Gorton and the other misbelievers of Warwick, and was next yr. brot. a prisoner to Boston, yet the mythical honor makes him to have left Drogheda, "dur in the siege in 1642, for Surinam, where the fam. had large estates." Authentic hist. makes the siege of Drogheda a dozen yrs. later. In favor of the sec. Nicholas, that authority makes his w. "d. of Sir Zachary R. a Cheshire baronet," but it wisely omits to tell how his title was acquir. Most curious is the docum. call. his will, made 27 May 1667 (near ten yrs. aft. his d.) by the municip. officers pub. in authentic form. R. I. Hist. Coll. II. Apx. 14.

The third Nicholas had m. one of this name, and no other s. the fourth, a fifth, and the fifth a sixth, ea. without other male issue; but the mystical number of seven was unhap. not reach. and the heredita. distinct. has expir. with the riches of Surinam. WALTER, Malden 1660, m. 11 Mar. 1661, Trial, d. of Ralph Shepard, [[471]] had William; Mary; Isaac; Thomas; Daniel, b. 10 May 1669; Increase, 16 July 1671; Walter, 28 June 1674; Jacob, 15 Dec. 1679; and Sarah, 8 Feb. 1683; and d. at Littleton a. 1718. POWES, THOMAS, Boston, of wh. I see nothing but that Sewall says, he was drown. 21 June 1684. POWNING, or POUNDING, HENRY, Boston, freem. 1644, but he was of ano. ch. tho. of what town I am ign. had Henry, b. 28 Apr. 1654, wh. perhaps, was of ar. co. 1677; Hannah, 8 Apr. 1656, d. next yr.; and Sarah, 3 Aug. 1659.

ABRAHAM, Charlestown, a surg. hav. in Col. rec. 19 Oct. 1630, when he req. to be made free, the prefix of respect, came, we may well infer, in the fleet Winthrop and was liv. 1631 at C. He with w. Joanna, early join. the ch. of Roxbury, but rem. again to C. and his w. d. 27 Dec. 1645; and he d. as the gr.-st. says, on the same day. BENAJAH, Plymouth, s. perhaps of Joshua or of Phineas, m. 29 Nov. 1655, Persis Dunham, prob. of the first John, had Abigail, b. 21 Nov. 1657. DANIEL, Hartford, s. prob. of John, freem. 1657, had Daniel, seven ds. and d. Apr. 1691, bur. 24. The ds. were Hannah, m. 1678, sec. Daniel Clark; Elizabeth w. of Nathaniel Goodwin; Sarah, wh. m. 1690, Timothy Phelps; Mary Sanford; Rachel, b. 1671, wh. m. 22 Feb. 1694, John Skinner; Esther; and ano. whose name is not kn. Esther, in 1702, d. unm. in her will refer. to br. Daniel, and five sis. so that we infer one was d. since the f. EPHRAIM, Weymouth, by w. Phebe had Ephraim, b. 15 June 1698. EPHRAIM, Sudbury, s. of Thomas of the same, by w. Elizabeth had Josiah, b. 6 Mar. 1700; Ephraim, 30 Nov. 1704; Phineas, 8 July 1706; Elizabeth 25 Apr. 1711; and Mary, 2 Dec. 1718; prob. rem. to Shutesbury or Shrewsbury. Of one Ephraim, either this man or his s. is told the marvellous tale of longevity in Dwight's travels II. 358, that he was b. in Nov. 1687, and d. May 1804, could count 1500 descend. ate no animal food for forty yrs. and "was able to mow a good swarth one hundred and one yrs. in succession." Improb. crowd up against both of these Ephraims; the sen. must have been some yrs. earlier than 1687, call. by the man of sec. childhood his yr. of birth, as it is not prob. that his first ch. was b. in [[472]] wedlock bef. the f. was twelve and a half yrs. old. Dr. Dwight should therefore, have better called him 126, than 116 yrs. old; but as part of the same chapter in Apocrypha is, that this veteran Ephraim had s. Michael wh. d. 1826, aged 103, we may judge the honor of the myth to have been designed for the junr. This younger Ephraim was not 99 yrs. old, when the credulity of Pres. Dwight was instructed by the wonder-working old man that he had mowed grass one hundred and one yrs. in succession, and only invalided the yr. past. Dr. Dwight, tho. not sceptical. inclined, as a juryman, on a question of this man's will, had he made it on the day of his visit, must have decided that it was not good, I presume for want of disposing mind and memory in the testator. So easily does the false story of great age obtain belief, even from men of sagacity, like Pres. Dwight or Mr. Ward. Next we compress the dimesions of Michael, tho. the day or yr. of his birth is unkn. yet as his f. was not m. bef. 1724, he was less than one hundred; and his f. from the last day of Nov. 1704 to any day in Mar. 1804 could count but ninety-nine yrs. and a half. See Barry, Hist. of Framingham, for more of the fables. JOHN, Cambridge, an expert surg. possib. br. of Abraham, was of Hooker's ch. and freem. 14 May 1634; but he had been so early as Mar. 1629, engag. for our comp. and came in the Lion's Whelp, but rem. in the same sh. and when next he came, sat down first at Braintree, in Nov. 1635 was animadvert. on for ill report of the country, rem. to Hartford, prob. 1637, was rep. 1639-42, but not after, excus. from watch, accord. to previous promise, in June 1644, but went for home in Nov. foll. with his w. having no ch. and above 60 yrs. old, and in Dec. drown. in the shipwreck on the coast of Spain. Winthrop I. 173, and II. 239, with Trumbull, Col. Rec. II. 27, 108, and 450. JOHN, Hingham, lost his ho. by fire, 15 Mar. 1646, and perhaps rem. to Weymouth, and may have been f. of John, Joseph, Matthew, Samuel, and Thomas of that town, or of some of them. JOHN, Hartford, an orig. propr. was prob. a carpenter, and was f. of John, and Daniel, d. 15 July 1655. His will of 7 Oct. preced. names w. Elizabeth and the two s. He has been sometimes confus. with the surg. wh. owned no ld. whereas this man had sev. lots. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 230. JOHN, Dorchester, freem. 10 May 1643, had John, b. a. 1630, and Timothy, and d. 1647, leav. wid. Mary, wh. m. William Turner. His will of 3 Mar. 1647 is abstr. in Geneal. Reg. VII. 36. Timothy sett. in Boston; John, at Medfield. JOHN, Weymouth, s. of Matthew of the same, m. 27 Nov. 1656, Mary, d. of ens. John Whitman of the same. JOHN, Hartford, s. of the sec. John, m. Hannah, d. of James Boosy, was freem. 1657, had Hannah, b. 25 Nov. 1658; John, 17 May 1661; Elizabeth 7 Oct. 1664; Sarah, 20 June 1668; Joseph, 6 Mar. 1671, Ruth, 21 [[473]] 1677; Susanna, 2 Oct. 1680; and Jonathan, 6 Oct. 1683; and d. 1690. Perhaps some of these ch. were by his s. w. Hepzibah, wh. m says Porter, John Sadd, 1690, and d. 1712. JOHN, Kingstown, by w. Ann, had Deliverance, b. 13 Nov. 1664; Mary, Apr. 1666; John, Oct. 1667; Ebenezer, 31 Aug. 1669; Phineas, Apr. 1671; Joshua, 10 Jan. 1673; Jeremy, 13 Oct. 1674; and Mercy, 23 Dec. 1676. JOHN, Medfield 1666, was s. of John of Dorchester, but prob. b. in Eng. and I kn. nothing more, exc. that he had John, Mary, Priscilla, Hannah, and Sarah, and w. Rebecca, all nam. in his will of 30 Apr. 1707, from wh. we find that one d. had m. Henry Smith; ano. Timothy Clark; and that s.-in-law, Samuel Wright was made with s. John excor. JOHN, Saybrook, s. of lieut. William, m. 8 June 1665, Sarah, d. of Thomas Jones, but whether he had ch. by her, I find not. Geneal. Reg. IV. has giv. from the rec. of Saybrook two JOHNS, as follows: one had Thomas, b. 28 Oct. 1675; Isaac, 16 Jan. 1678; Sarah, 5 June 1680; Lydia, 18 Feb. 1682; and Mehitable, 6 Sept. 1685. He may have been s. of William. The other JOHN, call. a tailor, m. 10 Aug. 1676, Mary Andrews, had Mary, b. 24 May 1677; Martha, 16 Jan. 1679; Daniel, 13 Jan. 1680; Jonathan, 25 Dec. 1682; Hannah, 14 June 1688; and John, 19 Mar. 1691. JOHN, Malden, s. of Richard of the same, by first w. Mary had Richard; John, b. 14 June 1686; and by w. Martha, m. 18 Nov. 1686, had John, b. 4 Aug. 1687; and Martha, 1690; and he may have rem. to Reading, where Mr. Eaton sett. one of the name. bef. 1700; but more prob. he was the deac. wh. d. at M. 15 Nov. 1742, aged 81 yrs. 7 mos. His wid. d. 10 May 1744, aged 83; unless she d. as his w. 20 Sept. 1742, aged 79. However, it may be, that this long liv. John was s. of Phineas, and that his w. Martha was d. of Richard Pratt. The decision is not easy upon Geneal. Reg. IX. 325. Ano. JOHN, or the same, of Malden, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 6 Mar. 1696; perhaps John, Thomas, Hannah, Ebenezer, Joseph, William, Caleb, Abigail, and Joshua, or some of them, for the ch. of this surname as the flowers of the field are spread about; but the gr.-st. in Malden, prove that one John's w. Mary, d. 17 May 1710, in 56th yr. and her h. John had d. 3 June 1708. JOHN, Weymouth, by w. Mary, wh. may have been d. of John Whitman of the same, had Samuel, b. 15 Oct. 1686, and by w. Mercy, prob. the same Mary, had John, 8 Mar. 1692; and John, again, 26 May 1696. One JOHN of Boston, m. 29 July 1691, Margaret Maverick, but of h. or w. I kn. no more. JONATHAN, Plymouth, br. perhaps of Benajah, m. 2 Nov. 1664, Abigail Wood, had Abigail, b. 16 June 1665; Bathsheba, 20 Feb. 1667; Jonathan, 20 Mar. 1669; Hannah, 28 June, 1671; Jabez, 1 Nov. 1673; Meletiah, 11 Dec. 1676; and Bethia, 8 Aug. 1679. JOSEPH, Weymouth, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 31 May 1664; Joseph, [[474]] 2 Feb. 1666; and John, 17 May 1668; was freem. 1672, and perhaps sw. again in 1674, when he liv. perhaps at Nantucket, and had there Mary, 16 Sept. 1675. JOSEPH, Charlestown, perhaps. s. of Phineas, m. 12 Feb. 1675, Dorcas Folger, had Joseph, b. 19 Oct. 1677, Bethia, 11 Feb. 1680; Benjamin, 19 Jan. 1682, d. soon; Dorcas, 2 Apr. 1683, d. soon; Phineas, 18 Jan. 1684; Joshua, 18 June 1686; Lydia, 28 Nov. 1688; and the liv. three s. and ds. were bapt. 10 Feb. 1689, when unlucki. only Joseph is nam. in the rec. JOSEPH, Saybrook, s. of William the first, recom. for freem. 1673, by first w. had Joseph, William, Sarah, Experience, and Margaret. In Sept. 1686, he took sec. w. Sarah, youngest d. of Robert Chapman of the same, had Ann, b. 12 Aug. 1687, d. in few mos.; Ann, again, 7 Oct. 1688; Susanna, 18 Mar. 1690; Robert, 26 Oct. 1691; Caleb, a. 1693; Elizabeth 6 Sept. 1695; Hannah, 27 Feb. 1699; and Temperance, 15 Feb. 1701, d. soon. JOSHUA, Plymouth came in the Ann 1623, prob. a youth, of wh. all that is kn. seems to be, that in 1652 he was one of the purch. of Dartmouth, and d. soon aft. for inv. of his prop. present. by Bathsheba, prob. his wid. 6 Oct. 1656, was only of the amo. £18 11s. 3d. Perhaps he had ch. but the gr.s. Ephraim, by Farmer believ. to be b. Nov. 1687, and his s. Michael, wonders of old age in 1804 and 1826, are by Barry render. wholly improb. JOSHUA, Medfield 1649. MATTHEW, Weymouth, freem. 13 May 1640, had Joseph, b. 10 Aug. 1637, prob. d. soon; and perhaps others, and may have, bef. 1643, rem. to Rehoboth. MATTHEW, Weymouth, perhaps s. of the preced. by w. Sarah, had Matthew, b. 18 Sept. 1665; Mary, 1667; Hannah, 4 Nov. 1670; William, 5 May 1673; may have rem. to Boston in the war of king Phillip, had s. Samuel, bapt. at 3d ch. 2 Apr. 1676, and gone again to W. there had Ann, 14 Sept. 1682; and Susanna, Sept. 1684. Prob. he was s. but may have been neph. of the preced. He bec. deaf at 12 yrs. and almost lost speech, and his w. was deaf and dumb after 3 yrs. as in the Magnalia 12 of cap. 26 of book III. is agreeably told (extract. from Remarkab. Providence of Increase Mather, the more judicious. f. of the author), with less admixt. of nonsense than is commonly seen in that work. MICAH, Weymouth, had John, b. 4 Oct. 1691. NATHANIEL, Saybrook, s. of William first of the same, m. 2 May 1688, Sarah Beament, had Sarah, b. 6 Feb. 1689; Nathaniel, 6 Mar. 1691; Samuel, 24 Jan. 1693; Abigail, 9 Oct. 1695; Deborah, 1 Jan. 1699; Hezekiah, 9 July 1701; and Gideon, 17 Sept. 1704. PETER, Lyme, m. 5 Aug. 1679, Elizabeth that d. of Matthew Griswold, wh. had been, three yrs. bef. divorc. from John Rogers for his heresy, had Peter, and d. 24 Mar. 1688, and, 1691, his wid. m. Matthew Beckwith. It is not kn. whose s. he was, tho. sometimes it has been guess. that he was William's, of [[475]] wh. the prob. is remote. PHINEAS, Plymouth, came in June 1622, as one of capt. Weston's men, planted at Weymouth, but in Mar. foll. as Gov. Winslow tells in Young's Chron. of the Pilgr. he went to P. had sh. in the div. of ld. as if he had come in the Ann with Joshua, wh. may have been a br. and so may we excuse the error of Mitchell, 279, wh. says he came in the Ann, when it is plain he was here one yr. earlier; m. 1630, a d. of Cuthbert Cuthbertson, it is said, rem. aft. many yrs. to Charlestown. He address. a petition to our Gen. Ct. in 1662, accomp. with a narrative of the first planting, whereupon, they gave him 300 acres. That tract, with illustrations by the diligence of Frothingham, is print. in 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. IV. 476. He d. 19 Apr. 1680, hav. been so reduced in est. as to need aid from the town. Frothinghm, 156. Perhaps in mak. his age a. 90 yrs. the inscript. on his gr.st. at Charlestown may be 10 or 12 yrs. too liberal. See Prince, Ann. I. 131, or Mr. Hale's Ed. 213. RICHARD, Charlestown, b. it is said, youngest of nine ch. to John of Malden in Co. Essex, and there bapt. 29 June 1615, by w. Mary, had Mary, b. 7 or 30 Sept. 1643; Thomas, 5 Mar. or May 1646; Mercy, 15 June 1650, d. young; John, 1655; Elizabeth; Martha, 1663; and Hannah. He liv. on Malden side, and d. 1691. Mary m.

He was engag. in settlem. of Mendon 1663. SAMUEL, Wickford 1674. SAMUEL, Weymouth, s. of Samuel of the same, by w. Patience, had Judith, 23 Nov. 1695. THOMAS, Watertown, freem. 1647, unless, I suspect, Barry overlooked one generat. and it was not that freem. but his s. wh. had, partly bef. and partly aft. rem. to Framingham, after being of Sudbury, these eleven ch. Thomas, b. a 1656; John; Ebenezer; Joseph; Philip; David; Jabez; Nathaniel; Abial, fem. Ephraim; and Jonathan; in 1682 had ld. set to him at Sherborn, and d. a. 1692; at least, admin. that yr. was giv. to wid. Susanna and s. John. All these ten s. m. and had fams. It seems prob. that the f. of these many ch. was he wh. sw. fidel. in 1652, rather than the freem. of 1647, wh. may have been his f. THOMAS, Weymouth, had William, b. 6 Mar. 1659. A serg. Pratt of Weymouth, perhaps not this man, but Joseph, Matthew, or Samuel, was k. by the Ind. in Philip's war, 19 Apr. 1676. THOMAS, Malden, by w. Sarah had Sarah, bapt. 6 Jan. 1661, d. young; Elizabeth 2 Feb. 1662; John, 29 May 1664; Sarah, again, 19 Aug. 1666, Robert, 19 Apr. 1668, d. young; Edmund, 30 Jan. 1670; Hannah, [[476]] 25 Feb. 1672; William, 13 Sept. 1674; Deborah, 1 Oct. 1676; and Robert, again, 22 June 1684. THOMAS, Malden. eldest s. of Richard of the same, had, by w. unkn. to me, Richard, John, Mary, Sarah, and Thomas, b. 1707, wh. it is said, to 20 Aug. 1776; but the f. d. 1718. TIMOTHY, Boston, s. of John of Dorchester, m. 9 Nov. 1659, Deborah Cooper, join. the sec. or Mather's ch. and was freem. 1683. He had sec. w.

His eldest d. m. William Backus of Norwich; Sarah m. 1670, Isaac Waterouse; and Lydia m. 18 Nov. 1679, John Kirtland of Saybrook. WILLIAM, Weymouth, freem. 1651.

Experience, had Joanna, b.23 Sept. 1692; and William, 3 Oct. 1695. He rem. to Dorchester. Six of this name, had in 1834, been gr. at Harv. as many at Yale, and eleven at other N. E. coll.

QUINTIN and RICHARD, says Lewis, were of [[477]] Lynn 1645; the former is among debtors, 1655, to est. of Joshua Foote, and the latter by Farmer is put among first sett. of R. I. and in Philip's war refus. to quit Providence. He had sw. alleg. to the king, June 1668. WILLIAM, Providence, sw. alleg. May 1682. PREBLE, ABRAHAM, Scituate 1637, m.

The epitaph that in Homer's Hist. of N. is said to be on his gr.-st. belongs to somebody else, lying 45 feet from the grave of the capt. whose head and foot stone have plain inscript. as I am assur. by the highest authority.

Ellis, in his Hist. of R. quotes from the ch. rec. the ment. of his sufferings and d. closing with a clause that proves how variously our ancient MS. may read, "leaving a good cup of gentleness behind him," when my version of the words in Italic is "SAVOR OF GODLINESS."

EDWARD, New Haven, prob. s. of William, may have been tw. br. of Daniel, sent over by his f. in the Christian, the first sh. from London in that yr 1635, aged 13, to prepare, no doubt, for his foll. perhaps had relat. in Dorchester, or other place neighb. to Boston where all the vessels came; and aft. the f. and his fam. went off to N.

Aug. 1680; Lydia, Nov. 1682; Sarah, Nov. 1683; Jehiel, Oct. 1686; Emma, Mar. 1688; and Remember, Oct. 1691. He d 20 Nov. 1692; and his wid. d. Feb. 1733. JEHIEL, Stratford, may be br. of the preced. had Samuel, b. 1663, selectman, 1669, rep. 1676. JOHN, Boston, m. 28 May 1661, Susanna, wid. of Robert Read of Hampton, was liv. 1668, but Farmer ment. a JOHN of Boston, d. 6 June 1663. JOHN, [[483]] Hadley, had gone as a soldier in Turner's comp. from the E. part of the Col. in Philip's war early in Apr. 1676, was in the Falls fight of May, in 1678 m. Sarah Gardner, perhaps d. of Samuel, had eight ch. all of wh. d. under age, exc. John, b. 1686; and Sarah, 1693. JOHN, Andover, by w.

JOSEPH, New Haven, a propr. 1685, may have been gr.s. of William, tho. it may not. be kn. wh. s. was his f. or he may have been a resid. much earlier, and h. of that Mary wh. had there bapt. Hackaliah and Eliasaph, tw. 9 Apr. 1643; Joseph, 24 Jan. 1647; Mary, and Sarah, not perhaps tw. 24 July 1664. ROBERT, New Haven 1646, had been serv. of Richard Church, was single, when he made his will, 1648, in wh. no ment. of any relat. of his name is to be seen. ROGER, Ipswich 1648, a tanner, came in the Elizabeth from London 1635, aged 21, d. perhaps at Lynn, 20 Jan. 1666. SAMUEL, Andover, m. 27 May 1672, Susanna Gutterson, and tho. her d. is not ment. this same man, m. 2 Apr. 1694, Sarah Bridges. At Andover is rec. the m. of Nicholas Holt, 21 May 1666, with "wid.

Salem vill. freem. 1690, had m. 15 Apr. 1669, Rebecca, d. of Francis Nurse, had Rebecca, b. 12 May 1670; Mary, 15 Feb. 1672; John, 20 Nov. 1673; and Martha, 21 Oct. 1676; and he d. 1697. His w. was d. of that sad Rebecca, execut. as a witch; and his only s. John was early lost on a fishing voyage. WILLIAM, Dorchester 1635, came in the Truelove, the latest of seventeen sh. from London to Boston that yr. aged 44, with w. Mary, 34, and four ch. Elizabeth 11; Sarah, 8; Mary, 6; and John, 3; rem. to New Haven in season to be among first subscr. of the compact, 1639; and there had Jehiel, bapt. 14 June 1640; Hackaliah, and Eliasaph, tw. 9 Apr. 1643; and Joseph, 24 Jan. 1647. I suppose mo. of these latter ch. was a d. of Robert Seabrook, wh. gave his s. Jehiel P. and Thomas Fairchild, jr. his home lot. He prob. d. not long after date of his will, 9 July 1647, in wh. he speaks of childr. of the first and sec. w. but does not enable us to disting. them, and by conject. I should make of the ch. brot. from Eng. the greater part if not all by first w. three s. and three ds. Edward, Daniel, John, Elizabeth Sarah, and Mary; but of the ds. refers to one as w. of Joseph Alsop, prob. Elizabeth to ano. as w. of William Meeker, prob. Sarah; and we, therefore, may well suppose that Mary was then unm. His wid. Mary m. Thomas Kimberly. He owned est. in Giggleswick, Co. York, in the most W. part of the W. Riding. In that parish of the hill country were b. the parents of the celebr. William Paley, and of its high sch. his f. was master. Sev. towns in Eng. are call. Preston; and out of nine persons of [[484]] this name gr. in 1830 at N. E. coll. three were of Yale and one of Harv. PRETIOUS, or PRETIOS, CHARLES, Boston, blacksmith or nailer, m. 17 Nov. 1653, Rebecca Martin, had Mary, b. 16 May 1654; and I hear of him no more, exc. as one of the debtors 1655 to est. of Joshua Foote in Geneal.

JOHN, Salem, s. of Walter of the same, m. Jan. 1674, Sarah, d. of Henry Wolcott of Windsor, had only s. Walter, b. 17 May 1676, H. C. 1695; was freem. 1677, rep. 1679 and aft. the revo. 1689, d. 13 Aug. 1691, and his wid d. 1698 in her 49th yr. The s. Walter was a man of distinct. capt. in the col. service 1708. JOHN, is the name of a soldier in Gallop's comp. 1690, but resid. is unkn. JOHN, Watertown, br. of James, may have sett. Bond thinks, at Lancaster. JOSEPH, Salem, k. by the Ind. 15 Dec. 1675, in the Narrangaset fight, says Felt II. 505; but whose s. he was is not told; yet possib. of Walter. JOSEPH, Watertown, br. of James, m. 25 Dec. 1701, Margaret, d. of Richard Child, had Margaret, b. 3 Oct. 1702; Joseph, 4 Sept. 1704; Hannah, 20 Mar. 1707; John, 9 Dec. 1711; Joshua; James; Mehitable, 18 Mar. 1719; and Jonas, bapt. 20 Nov. 1726; and d. 28 Apr. 1756. MATTHEW, Charlestown 1654, of wh. I kn. only that by w. Elizabeth he had Joseph, b. 23 Mar. 1656, and he was a householder in 1658. Perhaps he was of Salem 1668 to sign memorial against impost with Walter and sons. RICHARD, Boston, ar. co. 1658, m. 18 Aug. 1659, Elizabeth Cromwell, d. of Thomas, the prosperous privateersman, had Thomas, b. 22 July 1660; Joyliffe, 2 Mar. 1662; Elizabeth 10 Feb. 1664; and Richard, 26 Mar. 1667, was freem. with prefix of respect, 1664.

His wid. m. 12 Nov. 1673, Dudley Bradstreet of Andover; and Elizabeth m. 14 Dec. 1686, rev. Thomas Barnard of the same. WALTER, Salem 1641, merch. from Bristol Eng. brot. w.

His will, made 21 May preced. names w. Elizabeth and s. John, excors. ment. s. William, gr.ch. Elizabeth and Ann P. Elizabeth and John Croade, ds. Elizabeth Ruck, Hannah Veren, and Ann Bradstreet, but this last was not his own ch. but had been wid. of his s. Theodore. His wid. d. 11 Nov. 1688, aged 73. Of Samuel I hear nothing. Besides Theodore, William and Walter were lost at sea. Elizabeth m. 17 Mar. 1659, John Croade, and next John Ruck, misprint. Burke, in Essex Inst. Hist. Coll.

His will made five days bef. as pro. 15 Dec. foll. It nam. w. and s. John, excors. Hannah m. 24 Dec. 1702, Thomas Sanderson. Sometimes his name appears Priest. WILLIAM, Groton, eldest s. of preced. of wh. Bond could tell no more, but that he sat down on ld. at G. belong. to his f. RICHARD, or PRITCHARD, BENJAMIN, Milford, 1713, may have been s. of Roger. HUGH, Gloucester 1614-45, rem. to Roxbury, freem. 18 May 1642, had, by w. Elinor, Abigail, a d. acc. the town rec. but as I read the ch. rec. s.

In giv. deed of his est. some yrs. later, his attys. describe him as of Broughton, Denbighsh. wh. perhaps was the place of his nativity. Bef. the gen. introd. of surnames, the progenit. of this fam. would be represent. ap Richard, i. e. s. of Richard. JOHN, Topsfield, s. perhaps of William, was freem. 1686. JOSEPH, Milford, perhaps s. of Roger, d. a. 1676.

In Wheeler's Narr. and by Coffin, 389, in a list almost offic. he is John. Inv. of his est. in Mar. 1676, is found; and Nov. 1690, John of Topsfield, and Joseph of Amesbury convey. to their br.

C. 1707, the assid. annalist, whose service in perpet. evidence relative to our early hist. exceeds that of any other man, since the first generat. Of written or printed matter he was a useful expounder; but the great delineator of our literary men, half a centu. ago, has well cautioned us against his credulity. See Eliot's Biog. Dict. He was also f. of Nathan, H. C. 1718, a man of talents super. to his bro.'s but of less value to society. THOMAS, Glocester 1649, by w. Margaret had Thomas, b. 24 Dec. 1650; John, 1653; Mary, 1658; and Isaac, 7 Nov. 1663. Babson, 129, says his wid. d. 24 Feb. 1706.

Endicott, as he went by, on Sunday, from the ch. Twice she was taken to his house, where two min. were present; and tho. I fear she suffer. worse correction than from their mouths, yet the virulence of their affections did not perhaps go beyond her banishm. Eleven of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. one at Yale, and two at other N. E. coll. PRINDLE, JOHN, Milford 1645. Possib. the name is the same as that foll.

These ch. were prob. discharg. without trial; but the mo. was one of the first accus. of witchcr. and her h. (to wh. the first w. had brot. ch. Martha, b. 4 June 1666; Mary, 26 Oct. 1667, d. soon; John, 28 Oct. 1668; Mary, again, 30 Jan. 1670; and Thorndike, 15 July 1672, and that w. d. next mo.), for showing proper regard for her, as Hutch. II. 26 and 55 tells, fell under equal suspicion. Both were tried and condemn. on 5th, and on him, 19 Aug. was inflict. the punishm. of death, wh. she escap. by reason of her pregnancy, and bef. the time elaps. in wh. she [[490]] should have suffer. the power of decision and the devil passed away. Yet four yrs. later, the wid. had to beseech the legislat. to order relief of her husband's prop. from the forfeiture. See Felt II. 484. Too brief is this statement of Mr. Felt, and slightly seems the case to have been misapprehend. by him. No doubt, Gedney, the judge of Probate, was as much bound to maintain the technical law of Eng. in opposition to that of humanity, as his superiors of the other tribunal to assert the institute of Moses against that of common sense; and she "being convict. and sentenc. of and for the detestab. crime of witchcr." was "look. upon as d.-in-law, and left out of the will of her h. and nothing giv. her therein, nor order. her upon the distrib. of the est. of said P." and the Ct. had the requisite illumina. to decree, that when she produc. the pardon she bec. alive again.

Herefordsh. and near Wales; but caution is useful in receiv. the word of M. We kn. nothing, of his parentage or educ. He left good est. here, beside his lds. at [[492]] Edgton in Co.

The Ind. began hostil. Sept. 1675, by plunder of his ho. and he rem. to Lynn. When he d. a few wks. bef. 11 May 1678, with usual exagger. he was said by his wid. Elizabeth to be 101 yrs. old. She was prob. much younger, and m. Nov. of that yr. John Blaney of Lynn. He left s. Thomas, made excor. of his will of 2 May 1677, ds. Jane and Elizabeth beside three more ch. as the wid. says. Folsom, 31, 153; Willis I. 14, 156; Sullivan, 372; Haz. I. 58; and Hubbard, Ind. Wars, 14. THOMAS, Salem, s. of the preced. in his petitn. with mo. to Pro. Ct. calls hims. "a young man," by w. Elizabeth Williams, m. 3 Dec. 1679, had. Thomas, b. 29 Jan. 1680; sailed on a voyage 1681, and was not heard [[495]] of aft. Felt. See also Essex Inst. Coll. II. 276, and III. 14 and 15. Sometimes this is spelt Purchis. PURDY, FRANCES, and MARY, Fairfield 1644, are witness. to the will of William Frost, 6 Jan. 1645. Possib. the first was a man. PURLPE, EDWARD, Haddam 1674, m. Hannah Ackley, prob, d. of Nicholas. In that vicin. the name is found to our day. PURRINGTON, BENJAMIN, is only use of a wrong surname, wh. in his case, is Parmenter, in the abstr. of will of Thomas Cawly, Essex Inst. Hist. Coll. II. 71. JOHN, Kennebunk, was clk. of the writs 1668. JOHN, Exeter, s. of Robert, rem. to Salisbury. JOHN, Salisbury, s. of the preced. perhaps, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 26 Jan. 1691. ROBERT, Portsmouth 1665, freem. 1672; had John, b. a. 1635; and Robert, a. 1638; perhaps both b. in Eng. may have rem. to Salisbury, and had other ch. may easily be mistaken for Pudington. The name is much diffus. and often found writ. without g but with single r. PURRYER, WILLIAM, Ipswich, from Olney in Bucks, emb. at London, early in 1635, aged, by the custom-ho. rec. 36, in the Hopewell, with w. Alice, 37, and ch. Mary, 7; Sarah, 5; and Catharine, 1 1/2. Oft. Felt says, the y is changed to i. I imagine he rem. to Southold, L. I. and was adm. freem. of Conn. 1662; but. whether the name. be perpet. is unkn. PURY. See Perry. PUTNAM, or PUTMAN, BENJAMIN, Salem vill. now Danvers, s. of Nathaniel of the same, freem. 1690, by w. Sarah had Nathaniel, b. 25 Aug. 1686; Tarrant, 12 Apr. 1688; Elizabeth 8 Jan. 1690; Benjamin, 8 Jan. 1693; Stephen, 27 Oct. 1694; Daniel, 12 Nov. 1696; Israel, 22 Aug. 1699; and Cornelius, 3 Sept. 1702. His w. d. 21 Dec. 1705; and he m. 1 July 1706, Sarah Holton, and d. 1715. EDWARD, Salem vill. s. of Thomas of the same, was freem. 1690, and deac. m. 14 June 1681, Mary Holton (in Essex Inst.

His youngest s. oft. call. old Put, was that celebr. Gen. wh. d. at Brooklyn, Conn. 19 May 1790. NATHANIEL, Salem vil. s. of the first John, b. in Eng. was adm. of the ch. 1648, but his name is not in freemen's list, m. 3 Sept. 1652, Elizabeth Prince, had Samuel, b. 18 Feb. 1653; Nathaniel, 24 Apr. 1655; John, 26 Mar. 1657; Joseph, 29 Oct. 1659; Elizabeth 11 Aug. 1662; Benjamin, 24 Dec. 1664; and Mary, 15 Sept. 1688; was rep. 1690 and 1, d. 23 July 1700, aged a. 79. His w. d. 14 June 1688, in her 60th yr. Perhaps he had sec. w. d. of John Gedney. Elizabeth wh. d. bef. her f. m. a Flint, perhaps John; and Mary, [[497]] w. of John Tufts, John, and Benjamin, were the only ch. that surv. him. SAMUEL, Salem, prob. eldest s. of the preced. had w.

THOMAS, Lynn, eldest s. of first John, b. in Eng. early rem. to Salem, was freem. 18 May 1642, m. 17 Oct. 1643, Ann, d. of Edward Holyoke, had Ann, b. 25 Aug. 1645, wh. m. 18 Jan. 1667, the sec.

His wid. d. 8th of next mo. Sev. of this name stood in most unhap. distinct. in the melancho. witchcr. delus. as witness. on one or ano. indictm. 1692, viz. Thomas, in 8 cases, Edward in 7, John in 6, ano. Thomas in 4. See Essex Inst. II. 191. Thirteen of this fam. had, in 1832, been deac. deac. of the first ch. of Danvers; and of the name pervert. sometimes, most flagitious. to Putmun, as vulgar. sound. in 1828, had been twenty-five gr. at Harv. two at Yale, and seven at other N. E. coll. PYGAN, PYGON, PIGGIN, or PIGGON, ALEXANDER, New London, 1665, perhaps earlier, from Norwich, Co. Norf. m. 17 June 1667, Judith, d. of William Redfield, had Sarah, b. 23 Feb. 1670; and Jane, Feb. 1671.

In the modest, model, memoir of that clerg. by Miss Caulkins, the first artic. of 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. some particulars of his f.-in-law, the only male of this name may be read. PYNCHON, or PINCHEON, JOHN, Springfield, only s. of William, b. in Eng. 1625, brot. with three sis. and their mo. by his f. in the fleet with Winthrop 1630, m. 30 Oct. Hartford, rec. says 6 Nov. 1645, Amy, d. of George Wyllys of Hartford, wh. d. 9 Jan. 1699, had Joseph, b. 26 July 1646, H. C. 1664; John, 15 Oct. 1647; Mary, 28 Oct. 1650; William, 11 Oct. 1653, d. in few mos.; and Mehitable, 22 Nov. 1661, d. young. He was freem. 1648, rep. 1659, 62, 3, and 4, in 1665 an Assist. and ever aft. to the abolit. of the old form of governm. 1686; next of the Counc. to Andros, major of the Hampsh. reg. from its format. and [[498]] during the usurp. of A. call. coll. and was the chief man in all the W. yet Mather unwisely dictat. to the king who took somebody else for the honor of counc. in his new chart. 1692, but the people next yr. correct. that blunder, and he was chos. until 1702, every yr. exc. 1699; and Phips made him Judge of Pro. in June 1692. He d. 17 Jan. 1703. Mary m. 6 Aug. 1670, Joseph Whiting of Westfield, as the rec. has it, but Goodwin's scrupul. Geneal. says 5 Oct. 1669. JOHN, s. of the preced. was two yrs. stud. at H. C. liv. at Boston 1673 rem. to Ipswich, there m. Margaret, d. of Rev. William Hubbard, had John, Margaret, and William, all b. there, rem. to Springfield, where his w. d. 11 Nov. 1716; was lieut. col. clk. of the Courts and Regist. of deeds, and d. 25 Apr. 1721. JOSEPH, Springfield, br. of the preced. a physician, was rep. 1681, and 2, but in this last yr. d. 30 Dec. unm. at Boston. WILLIAM, Roxbury, an Assist. came in the fleet with Winthrop 1630, had been assoc. with the patentees, 1628, wh. purch. from the Plymouth comp. that yr. and named to office by the royal chart. of 4 Mar. 1629; brot. four ch. Ann, Mary, John, and Margaret, with their mo. says the rec. of Roxbury ch. of wh. his name is first. His w. d. in the first season, bef. ret. of the sh. in wh. they came; and aft. some yrs. he m. Frances Sanford, a grave matron of the ch. of Dorchester, and a. 1636, rem. to found the town of Springfield, so named, prob. from the place of his resid. near Chelmsford in Old Eng. He was a man of great enterprise, and highly honored as Treasr. bef. his leav. the seacoast, and as Couns. after, until his publicat. of the dangerous judgm. as to religion, wh. he had formed 30 yrs. bef. For this he suffered indignity in 1651, when his book was by our governm. ordered to be burned, and lest the same form of purificat. might reach to the author, he went home, as more freedom was enjoyed in his native ld. See the letter, in full, to Sir H. Vane, from our Gov. Endicott and his council of Assist. in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 35. At Wraisbury, on the Thames, near famous Runnymede, in Co. Bucks, he d. Oct. 1662, in 72d or 74th yr. his w. having d. there 10 Oct. 1657. Ann m. Henry Smith, s. by her first h. of the sec. w. of her f.; Margaret m. Dec. 6, 1644, capt. William Davis of Boston; and Mary m. 20 Nov. 1640, capt. Elizur Holyoke, and d. 26 Oct. 1657. Four of this name had been gr. at Harv. and three at Yale, 1825. PYNE, JAMES, Hartford 1647, may have been only trans. inhab. there or at Fairfield. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 150, 158. THOMAS, the freem. of Mass. 6 May 1635, was, by Farmer, thought to be the same as Pinney, wh. does not to me seem prob. QUARLES, WILLIAM, Ipswich 1678, prob. came in from Salisbury, or some other town, where in 1665 he was 18 yrs. old, but no more is kn. [[499]] of him, exc. that his Inv. is found of 14 Mar. 1690. WILLIAM, Ipswich, perhaps s. of the preced. but of wh. I learn nothing exc. by his will of est. among Prob. rec. after dec. 10 Apr. 1719, when wd. Mary, eldest s. William, and other s. Robert and Francis, and other relat. are ment. It is possible from adopt. his name for one of his s. that he was of kin to Quarles, the puritan poet. Yet in Boston Joanna was m. by Gov. Bellingham to Richard Smith of Lancaster, 2 Aug. 1654; tho. no occur. of the name can be found for more than 80 yrs. after the sett. of the town, either in births, or deaths, or in the public reg. of deeds or of wills. QUELCH, BENJAMIN, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Nathaniel, b. 9 Dec. 1692; and Benjamin, 25 Aug. 1694; prob. rem. soon, as he is not in the list of inhab. 1695. QUELVES, ROBERT, is the impossib. name writ. by the Secreta. in our Col. Rec. for Oct. 1645 (the bungler was Increase Nowell), among the petnrs. for a new planta. that our rulers would have gained from R. I. or Providence jurisdict. No doubt it was Twelves, of Braintree, the freem. of 1663, and in later vols. of the rec. restitut. was made in place of the false letters. QUICK, NATHANIEL, New Hampshire, d. 1677. Kelly. WILLIAM, Charlestown 1636, a mariner, as seems if from Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 6, rem. to Newport, where he was adm. an inhab. 27 Dec. 1638. Prob. his relig. opin. or those of his friends led to that, and he sold ho. and ld. June 1644. Ann Q. of Charlestown, perhaps his mo. sold her ho. and ld. in Apr. 1640. QUIDDINGTON, JOSEPH, one of the soldiers k. by the Ind. 19 Oct. 1675, at Hatfield, but of what town he had been inhab. is unkn. ABRAHAM, Boston, perhaps s. of the preced. by w. Sarah had Elizabeth bapt. 31 Dec. 1682, but her b. is not found in the rec. of the town, so that I infer, he came in from the neighbor. He had also Ann, bapt. 1 Feb. 1685, and was of the 3d or O. S. ch. but he no more is heard of. His d. Ann m. 14 Oct. 1703, Thomas Holland. QUILTER, JOSEPH, Ipswich 1679, perhaps s. of Mark the first, is ment. in the valu. pamphlet of 1689, Revo. in N. E. justif. p. 38. MARK, Ipswich 1637, came prob. with Rev. Nathaniel Rogers the yr. bef. bring. some ch. and d. perhaps, 1654, his will being of 7 Feb. in that yr. His ch. were Joseph, Mark, Mary, Rebecca, and Sarah; the two first may have been b. in Eng. His d. Mary is nam. in the will of Rev. N. Rogers, 3 July 1655, as his maid serv. MARK, Ipswich, s. of the preced. m. Frances, d. of Richard Swan of Rowley. He was b. a. 1630, and his will is of 4 Nov. 1678. QUIMBY, or QUINBY, JOHN, Stratford 1654, had one ch. b. there, but [[500]] after some yrs. rem. and was one of the patentees of West Chester in 1664, where the fam. has contin. ROBERT, Salisbury 1663, had Lydia, b. 22 Jan. 1658; William, 11 June 1660; John, 7 Sept. 1665; and Thomas, 8 Feb. 1668; and prob. d. 1677. Lydia m. 10 Apr. 1674, William Holdridge. WILLIAM, Amesbury, perhaps br. perhaps s. of the preced. took o. of fidel. 20 Dec. 1677. QUINCY, DANIEL, Boston, goldsmith, eldest s. of Edmund the sec. ar. co. 1675, m. 9 Nov. 1682, Ann or Hannah, d. of Rev. Thomas Shepard of Charlestown, had Ann, b. 1 June 1685; and John, 21 July 1689, H. C. 1708; and d. 10 Aug. of the yr. foll. his will of 4 Apr. 1690, being pro. 18 Sept. aft. His wid. m. 7 Jan. 1701, Rev. Moses Fiske as his sec. w and d. 24 July 1708. His d. Ann m. John HoIman, wh. may have been the gr. of H.

EDMUND, Boston, arr. 4 Sept. 1633 with John Cotton; making it prob. that he came from the same Co. in Lincoln, tho. really he was of Wigsthorpe Co. Northampton, s. of Edmund, and bapt. 30 May 1602, and was, with w. Judith m. 14 July 1623, adm. of the ch. in Nov. 1633, within four mos. five of his serv. joined it; freem. 4 Mar. 1634, and rep. at the first Gen.

In the cause of the Prov. he was sent to the Court of the Sovereign in Dec. 1737, and d. there of smallpox 23 Feb. after. The inscript. on his monum. erect. by our Gen.

Cradock, prob. in the Marblehead fishery, bef. 1630, severely, even cruelly punish. for maledict. of the ch. at Salem in June 1631, as cutting off his ears, and a sort of excuse seems to be suggested that he could not have felt the indignity bec. he was insane. He was banish. as in Winthrop is told I. 56. ROBERT, Plymouth, came in the Ann, 1623, prob. with w. and ch. for in the div. of lds. next yr. he had four sh. but in the div. of cattle, 1627, his name is not found. ROBERT, [[509]] Boston 1686, the first Episcop. min. sett. in N. E. was induct. 15 June of that yr. and Sewall, in his Diary Notes, that on 15 Sept. Mr. David Jeffries was by him m. to Miss Betty Usher, prob. d. of John; but perhaps no edifice for worship was erect. in his time. Neither Pemberton nor Eliot give any report of him after the first yr. Dunton says he "was an emin. preach. and his Sermons were useful, and well dressed." He had come in the frigate Rose, May 1686, and went home, no doubt, at the end of three yrs. when his patron Andros was overthrown. WILLIAM, Greenwich 1669, had prob. liv. at Stamford, there m. 27 Oct. 1659, Elizabeth d. of Nicholas Thele, was rep. 1670. RATHBON, JOHN, THOMAS, THOMAS, jr. and WILLIAM, were of Block isl. 1678. RATSTOCK, JOSHUA, Boston 1687, prayed Sir E. Andros for leave to keep a sch. at the N. end, but his success is not heard of. RAVENSCROFT, ANTHONY, Westerly 1661, was a soldier in 1675. SAMUEL, Boston, ar. co. 1679, m. Dionysia, d. of Maj. Thomas Savage, had Dionysia, b. 12 Apr. 1681; Samuel, 12 Apr. 1682; both bapt. 7 May this yr.; George, 20, bapt. 23 Mar. 1684; Sarah, 20 Nov. 1686; and Thomas, 29 June 1688. He was one of the Wardens of the first Episcop. ch. and that prevent. the bapt. of the ch. at O. S. to wh. he had belong. and it may be thot. perhaps led to his imprison. at the revo. in Apr. 1689. Soon after, he unit. in a loyal address to King William, but prob. rem. in short time. RAVENSDALE, JOHN, was sw. a freem. of Mass. 6 May 1635; but where liv. I find not. RAWBORNE. See Rabun. RAWLINS, RAWLINGS, or ROLLINS, CALEB, Boston, s. of Thomas the sec. by w. Elizabeth d. of Nicholas Wilmot, had Thomas, b. 15 Sept. 1673; Mary, 10 Mar. 1677; and Ann, 25 Oct. 1679. ICHABOD, Dover, perhaps s. of James, was taxed 1665. JAMES, Newbury, freem. 14 May 1634, was of Dover two yrs. after, and in 1656, fined for neglect of public worship. JASPER, Roxbury, came with w.

I believe they all contin. in Conn. He was of Boston 1654, and aft. JOHN, Boston, by w. Judah had Gershom, b. 29 Jan. 1686; and perhaps more. JOSHUA, Boston 1671, mariner, s. of sec. Thomas, by w.

I suppose, in 1637, and in Mar. 1638, freem. was first clk. of the town, rep. 1638, 9, 42, 4, 6, 8, and 9, and Secr. 1650 to 86, d. 27 Aug. 1693, having rem. to Boston, 1650; was long reg. of deeds for Suff'k. Co. as well as Secr. for the Col. for wh. office the vols. of rec. exhibit strange evid. in many places of his incompetency or more wonderful neglect. One instance is specified [[511]] under Adams, Joseph. He had s. Daniel, bef. 1662. He m. inn Eng. Rachel, d. of Thomas Pirne, or Perne, and his first ch. a d. was b. there, and left at home; beside her, six more ds. are said to have been b. to him, and five s. Of these we can hardly be sure of the dates of more than half; Edward, H. C. 1653; and Rachel, wh. m. at Boston, 18 Jan. 1653, William Aubrey, we may suppose to have been b. in Eng. also; but the rest would prob. be b. here, though we may mistake names as well as dates. David, b. 6 May 1644; Pirne or Parnell, 1646; and Grindall, 23 Jan. 1649, wh. d. young, may admit to have their b. at N. as Coffin gives them; tho. his Susan wh. d. in Roxbury 1654, must be rejected, since the town rec. is silent, and by inspect. of the ch. rec. it seems prob. Susan, d. of Edward Payson, was thus read. John, wh. went to Eng. and never came back, and William, b. at B. 21, bapt. 25 May 1651; Rebecca, 19 Oct. 1654, d. soon; Rebecca, again, b. 21, bapt. 25 May 1656; Sarah; Elizabeth 12 Nov. 1657; and Grindall, again, 23 Jan. 1659, H.

The names of these twenty ch. of wh. only five liv. to grow up, it is said are record. in the anc. fam. bible, and so, we presume, are the dates; one of wh. is impossible to be true.

ISRAEL, Rehoboth, youngest s. of John the first, m. 6 Nov. 1684, Rebecca, youngest d. of the third John Ruggles of Roxbury, had eleven ch. but my correspond. gives date or name to neither, and he d. 17 Nov. 1732. JACOB, Salem, s. of the first Thomas, own. est. in 1661, but prob. d. bef. his f. or at least nothing more is kn. of him. JACOB, Salem, s. of the sec. Thomas, m.

JOHN, Dorchester, rem. to Weymouth or Braintree, freem. 13 May 1640, ar. co. 1644, had Abigail, b. at Dorchester; John, 29 Aug. 1640; and Thomas, 20 Nov. 1641; rem. to Rehoboth, 1645, there had, perhaps, William; Samuel; Moses, Oct. 1650; Mary, June 1652; Elizabeth Jan. 1654; Daniel, Mar. 1655; Israel, 1657; and. Mehitable, Aug. 1659; was one of good prop. and influence, whose gr.stone, still extant, it is said, shows; that he d. Sept. 1685, aged 87. JOHN, jr.

Bethia, d. of George Fry, rem. to Taunton, had William, Thomas, George, Mary, Ruth and Hannah, prob. some of them bef. rem. and d. at Dighton, 13 Jan. 1721. His wid. d. 20 Oct. 1730, aged 77. He may have been of Johnson's comp. in Philip's war, and by a former w. had John, b. 5 June 1674; but neither her surname, nor bapt. name can I decipher from the MS. of my friend. correspondent. JOHN, Scituate, may be that youth bound 1653 to Michael Pierce for nine yrs. personal serv. as rec. in 1662, m. 1668, Mary, wid. of Christopher Winter, had John; liv. some yrs. at Marshfield, and d. 21 May 1694.

JOHN, Woburn, s. of George the first, m. 10 Jan. 1697, Ruth Johnson, prob. d. of Matthew, but I hear no [[517]] more. JOHN, Boston, whose f. by no dilig. inquiry can be aseert. but seems to be entit. to insert. here, tho. the first ment. of him is as gr. at H. C. 1697, bec. it is so high a prob. that he was either b. on our side of the ocean, or at least had been here so many yrs. JOSEPH and JOSIAH, of Lynn, are among the freem. of 1681. The former came to Boston 1671, in the Arabella from London. JOSIAH, New London 1662, rem. to Norwich, m. at Marshfield, Nov. 1666, Grace Holloway, had Josiah, b.

His w. d. 13 Sept. foll. aged 33; and by w. Elizabeth he had Obadiah, again, 27 Mar. 1683; Mary, 4 May 1684; Nathaniel, 23 Aug. 1686; and Sarah, again, 26 Jan. 1688. PHILIP, Weymouth 1640, by w. Mary had Philip, b. 24 Oct. 1641; Samuel; and Mary, wh. m. 27 Nov. 1669, John Vining; was prob. the freem. of 1660, and his will of 15 Dec. 1674, was pro. 5 May 1676. PHILIP, Lynn 1669, a physician, is presum. to be that resident of Concord wh. after liv. there 25 yrs. d. 10 May 1696. PHILIP, Weymouth, s. of Philip the first, by w. Hannah had Mary b. 21 Mar. 1669; Hannah, 18 Feb. 1672; Philip, 2 Nov. 1674; John, 16 Aug. 1676; and prob. these by w. Abigail, Samuel, 29 Sept. 1681; Prudence, 7 Oct. 1685; Stephen, 15 Oct. 1690; and Deborah, 30 Aug. 1692. RALPH, Woburn, s. of William of Dorchester, brought from Eng. by his f. in very early youth by w. Mary, d. of Anthony Pierce of Watertown, had William, b. 1658; John, 1660; Joseph; Daniel; Timothy, b. 14 Feb. 1666; David; and Jonathan. RICHARD, Marblehead 1674, in June 1678 was witness with Samuel R. to the will of Samuel Condy. RICHARD, Boston, by w. Joanna, had Mary, b. 26 Mar. 1687, and perhaps others. ROBERT, Exeter 1638, was one of the firs sett. at Hampton, but rem. to Boston, there by w. Hannah, had Rebecca, b. 9 Sept. bapt. 1 Nov. 1646, wh. prob. d. young; again went to Hampton, there had [[518]] Hannah, Mary, and Sarah; again rem. to Boston, perhaps, where he had the last ment. bapt. 1 Sept. 1650; and Samuel, 3 Apr. 1653; this s. d. the end of Mar. foll. and ano. Samuel was b. 28 Feb. 1655. His w. d. 24 June foll. and he went once more to Hampton, had ano. w. Susanna; and was drown. 20 Oct. 1657, by overset. of a boat. See Belkn. I. 58, of Farmer's ed. His wid. m. John Preston, and she join. with the childr. in convey. of est. in B. Hannah m. 11 Jan. 1661, John Senter of Boston. SAMUEL, Mendon, s. of John the first, freem. 1673, m. 1668, Hopestill Holbrook, perhaps d. of William the first, had Samuel, John, Josiah, and Ebenezer, beside Mary, w. prob. of Seth Chapin; but dates are not seen. His will was of 5 Apr. 1717. The s. John is said to be that gr. of H. C. 197, wh. was held the greatest lawyer this country produc. bef. the Americ. Revo. exc. perhaps Judge Trowbridge. See full exhibit. of his esteem in Eliot's Biogr. Dict. SAMUEL, Marblehead, 1674, perhaps br. of Richard. SAMUEL, Charlestown, s. of George the first, a physician, m. 19 June 1679, Elizabeth d. of John Mousal, had Elizabeth b. 3 Apr. 1680; Joanna, 16 Feb. 1681; Abigail, 10 Jan. 1683; Samuel, 16 July 1688, d. in few days; Mary, 9 Jan. 1690; Mercy, 29 Nov. 1697. THOMAS, Salem 1630, freem. 1 Apr. 1634, was made ens. 1637, had s. Thomas, Abraham, and perhaps others, and he may earlier have been of Lynn and Marblehead, at wh. latter he was a witness, 28 Sept. 1630, bef. coroner's jury. THOMAS, Salem, elder s. of the preced. by w. Mary, had Susanna, bapt. 23 Sept. 1649; Ann, 15 June 1651, d. at 11 yrs.; Mary, 10 Apr. 1653; Elizabeth 13 May 1655; Remember, 26 Apr. 1657; Jacob, 5 June 1659; Sarah, 15 Mar. 1661; but prob. the last to d. young, for ano. Jacob was bapt. there 7 Nov. 1663; and Sarah, again, 14 Oct. 1665, or 19 Aug. 1666. Yet here, without doubt, is some confus. and more omis. I feel sure there were two, and prob. three Thomases contempo. at Salem. The first had title of Col. and d. abroad a. 1663; left beside a sec. w. call. Elsy, two s. of wh. Abraham, the younger, was admor. By Wait Winthrop, his atty. Samuel, only s. of the other Thomas, calling hims. merch. of London, sold 28 June 1701, to Daniel Epps the farm. at Salem that had belong. to his f. But Essex Inst. II. 16, gives inv. of ano. THOMAS, tak. 5 Apr. 1667. THOMAS, Sudbury, may have been a promin. man at Newtown, L. I. 1656. THOMAS, Sudbury, may be the freem. of 1656, had Thomas, and perhaps more, d. 19 Sept. 1701, as Mr. Shattuck thinks. THOMAS, Boston, by w. Mary had Elizabeth b. 28 Jan. 1657; and he d. 11 May 1661. THOMAS, Rehoboth, s. of John the first, m. 29 Mar. 1665, Elizabeth Clark, bur. 23 Feb. 1675, aged 32; and m. 16 June 1675, Ann Perrin, perhaps d. of the first John, had John wh. d. 4 Dec. 1676; Thomas, 25 Mar. 1678; Nathaniel, 30 Mar. 1680; and Hannah, 12 Apr. 1682; and he d. 6 Feb. 1696. THOMAS, Weymouth, [[519]] s. of William the first, by w. Sarah had Thomas, b. 12 Sept. 1671; John, 30 Dec. 1679; Samuel, 12 Apr. 1681; Ruth, 20 Feb. 1685; William, 4 Feb. 1688; Hannah, 25 Sept. 1689; and Elizabeth 9 Nov. 9. THOMAS, Sudbury, s. of Thomas of the same, m. 30 May, 1677, Mary, d. of John Goodrich of Wethersfield, had fam. was freem. 1678, then call. jun. One THOMAS of New Hampsh. 1689, pray. for jurisdict. of Mass. THOMAS, Woburn, youngest s. of George the first, m. 1 Feb. 1704, Sarah Sawyer. TIMOTHY, Wourn, s. of Ralph, m. 27 Dec. 1688, Martha Boyden, had Martha, b. 1 Mar 1690; William, 5 Oct. 1694, so nam. for a bro. k. by the f.; Jonathan, 15 Dec. 1701, d. young; Elizabeth 1 Dec. 1706; and Mary, 25 Dec. 1709; and by sec. w. Persis, had Persis, 21 July 1711; Timothy, 27 Sept. 1713; Jacob, 31 Jan. 1716; and Jonathan again, 19 May 1718. But it must be told, that the h. of Persis, to wh. the last four ch. are giv. is, by my correspond. call. s. of George the first. WILLIAM, Boston, perhaps very early, but more prob. not, as it seems likely that most, if not all of his ch. were brot. from Eng. So far as can be gather. or resona. conject. they were Margaret, wh. m. 3 Mar. 1659, Richard Stubbs; Susanna m. 13 Dec. 1659, Samuel Smith; Esther m. 30 July 1661, John Canney, all at B. Edward, Richard, and Samuel, all at Marblehead, and it is said Christopher, wh. d. at Charleston 1696. Tradit. tells, that he d. at sea, on a passage, 1667, hither from Ireland. WILLIAM, Weymouth. freem. 2 Sept. 1635, rep. 1636 and 8, had John; William, b. 15 Dec. 1639; Esther, 8 May 1641; and prob. others, certain; Mary wh. d. by rec. 16 Apr. 1655. But ano. Mary, d. of one William at W. m. 11 May 1657, John Vining, by the same rec. so that some mistake may be fear. Perhaps the earlier date refers to the mo. of the m. Mary. He had also Thomas, Margaret and James. WILLIAM, Dorchester, came prob. in the Defence 1635, aged 48, with w. Mabel, 30; George, 6; Ralph, 5; and Justus, 18 mos. and had at D. Abigail, bapt. 30 Dec. 1638; was freem. 14 Mar. 1639; rem. prob. first to Rehoboth, or perhaps liv. at Woburn. WILLIAM, Boston, perhaps br. of the first John, there by w. Susanna, had Susanna; and John b. 25, bapt. 27 Sept. 1646, a. 4 days old, as the ch. rec. says. His w. d. 12 Oct. 1653, and he m. 20 May 1654, Ruth Crook, had William, 3 Feb. 1655, d. soon; Isaac, 18 Apr. 1656; Ephraim, 23 Nov. 1657; Jonathan, 23 Apr. 1659; Timothy, 11 Aug. 1660; William, again, 7 May 1662; Hezekiah, 6 July 1663; Sarah, 21 June 1665; Elizabeth 22 Dec. 1666; and Elizabeth again, 22 Apr. 1669. He may have been of the first prop. of Worcester, 1674. His d. Hannah d. 25 Nov. 1656, by rec. and d. Susanna m. 13 Dec. 1659, Samuel Smith. WILLIAM, Norwalk 1654, perhaps was only a transient man, and very soon aft. of Newtown, L. I. WILLIAM, Boston, by w. [[520]] Hannah had William, b. 26 Mar. 1665, unless there be error. in town rec. wh. is not very improb. and John, 25 Apr. 1669. WILLIAM, Woburn, eldest s. of Ralph, by w. Elizabeth had William, b. 23 Aug. 1682; Mary, 12 Mar. 1685; Elizabeth 23 Feb. 1687; was casual. k. by his own bro. Timothy, 7 Nov. 1688, shooting at a deer. WILLIAM, Woburn, s. of George, m. 24 May 1686, Abigail Kendall. WILLIAM, Weymouth, s. of William the first of the same, not the freem. 1653, m. 1675 Esther Thompson, had William; Esther; John, b. 21 Oct. 1680, ano. ch. whose name is not in the rec. 24 May 1682; John, again, 10 July 1687; so that prob. the first John d. young; Jacob, 6 Nov. 1691; and Sarah, 21 Mar. 1694; beside others, as we are confident, for his will of 26 Oct. 1705, pro. 12 Sept. foll. names w. Esther; eldest s. William; John; Jacob, and ds. Bathshua Porter; Mercy Whitmarsh; and unm. ones, Mary; Esther; and Sarah. This name is very common, often written Reed, and under either form likely to breed confus. betw. sev. hav. the same bapt. title. Aft. spend. many hours of sev. days, I am unable to reconcile and fix the habita. of all. Farmer found 60 gr. in the N. E., N. J., and Union Coll. 1829. Twelve at Harv. and eleven at Yale had been gr. in 1834. READER, JOHN, Springfield 1636, had gr. of ld. but did not long cont. perhaps was of New Haven in 1643; Stratford 1650; but last of Newtown, L. I. 1656. REAPE, SAMUEL, Newport, m. bef. 30 Jan. 1669, Joanna, wid. of Zechariah Rhoades. THOMAS, Boston, m. 30 Nov. 1660, by Gov. Endicott, to Judith, wid. of Robert Ratchell. WILLIAM, Newport, by w. Sarah, had Sarah, b. 17 Apr. 1664; and William, 31 Dec. 1667; and d. 6 Aug. 1670, aged 42. RECORD, JOHN, Weymouth, was a soldier on Conn. Riv. in Philip's war 1676, and in July 1677, m. at Hingham, Hannah, d. of Thomas Hobart. REDDING, RIDDAN, or READING, JOHN, Sandwich, m. 22 Oct. 1676, Mary Bassett, perhaps d. of William the sec. JOSEPH, Boston, early one of the ch. and prob. came in the fleet with Winthrop rem. to Cambrige 1632, was freem. 14 May 1634, and at Ipswich 1637, where a wid. R. perhaps his, was liv. 1678. MILES, Boston, perhaps br. of the preced. a cooper, came prob. with Winthrop for in the list of first ch. mem. his No. is 81, freem. 14 May 1634, was prob. of Billerica 1665. THADDEUS, Lynn, by w. Elizabeth had Hannah and Sarah, tw. b. 12 Aug. 1660, of wh. Hannah d. in 3 mos.; Hannah, again, 11 Nov. 1662, John, 3 Feb. 1665; and Abigail, 4 June 1671; was of Marblehead 1674. THOMAS, Saco 1652, freem. 1653. See Folsom, 183. This name, Farmer says, is found still in N. H. [[521]] REDDOCK, HENRY, Providence 1645-55, in 1661 liv. at Warwick, was f.-in-law of Christopher Hauxhurst. JOHN, Sudbury, an orig. propr. 1640. REDFIELD, or REDFIN, JAMES, New London, perhaps as early as 1649. One of the name is ment. at Edgartown 1671, yet he may more likely be the foll. JAMES, New London, s. of William, apprent. to a tanner 1662, but prob. bec. a weaver, m. at New Haven, Elizabeth Howe, d. of Jeremiah, in May 1669, had Elizabeth b. 31 May 1670; and Sarah; beside Theophilus 1682; seems to be resid. at Saybrook in 1676. He rem. to Fairfield, m. Deborah, d. of John Sturges, had Margaret, bapt. 7 Oct. 1694; and James, 25 Oct. 1696; and prob. d. aft. 1719, when he gave est. to s. James. WILLIAM, New London, soon after 1646, br. prob. of James the first, by w. Rebecca had Rebecca, wh. m. 12 Dec. 1661, Thomas Roach; Lydia, wh. m. 10 Jan. 1656, Thomas Bayley; James, bef. ment. and Judith, wh. m. 17 June 1667, Alexander Pyan; and d. 1662. He had been of Cambridge 1639-42, in the S. part now Newton, where he sold his est. Sept. 1646 to Edward Jackson, being in my opinion, the same man call. by Jackson in his Hist. 9 and 23 (mistak. the letter f, for the ancient long s, in his name), Redson, Redsyn, or Redsen. Prob. some of his ch. were b. in Eng. one or more at C. REDFORD, CHARLES, Salem, merch. was capt. of the troop 1691, perhaps went home, d. 1692, Felt says. REDIAT, RIDIAT, or RADYATE, JOHN, Sudbury, freem. 1645, by w. Ann had John b. 19 Apr. 1644; Samuel, 22 Oct. 1653, d. in few wks. and Elizabeth 12 Aug. 1657; perhaps others. Deborah R. m. at Concord, 22 May 1679, Daniel Farrabas, as sec. w. is in his will of 5 Feb. 1687, made at Marlborough, pro. 28 Apr. foll. call his d. Farrowbush, and therein favored with good part of his est. ano. part to Mehitable, his d. w. of Nathaniel Oakes, and some provis. for gr.ch. John and Mary R. s. and d. of his dec s. John. JOHN, Sudbury, s. of the preced. by w. Susanna had John; Susanna, b. 1 Dec. 1672; and Mary, 8 Feb. 1675; and d. 1676. His wid. m. John Miles of Concord; Susanna, m. 26 Dec. 1692, Jacob Farrar; Mary, m. 1 Sept. 1696, Nathaniel Jones; and John d. 5 Aug. 1694, prob. without issue, and the name perhaps is extinct. REDINGTON, ABRAHAM, Rowley 1667, was rep. in 1686, for Topsfield or Boxford, freem. 1690. I suppose he m. Mary or Margaret, d. of Zacheus Gould of T. but no issue is kn. to me, unless he be (as highly prob. it seems), that man, call. in Geneal. Reg. I. 77, Pedington, whose s. Benjamin was b. 19 Apr. 1661. DANIEL, Topsfield, freem. 1685. THOMAS, Boxford, freem. 1690. REDKNAP, or REDNAPE, BENJAMIN, Lynn, s. of Joseph, freem. 1691, had Sarah, b. 8 Feb. 1675; Hannah, 9 Apr. 1679; Rebecca, 9 Aug. [[522]] 1682; and Joseph, 20 Jan. 1684. JOSEPH, Lynn, a wine-cooper from London, came prob. in 1634, was freem. 3 Sept. of that yr. had a. fam. Nathaniel and Benjamin, or d. Sarah, wh. m. 28 Dec. 1671, Thomas Laighton; certain. liv. to gr. age. Presid. Dudley pro. his will 28 Oct. 1686, that was made 20 May 1681, at Lynn. It names only s. Nathaniel, to wh. he gave ld. at Springfield; and Benjamin, mak. the latter excor. and devis. to him est. at Lynn. Hutch I. 341, says he came over at 60 (but he could be little more than 40) and d. in Boston, aged 110. He foll. authority of Judge Sewall (wh. in one place says he d. at Lynn), not doubting to draw the conclus. as to his age on arr. when S. said he liv. here a. 50 yrs. To this weight, Felt, Eccl. Hist. I. 531 offers no resistance. But as the Court rec. of Essex Co. show that giv. evidence in 1657, he was a. 60, and in 1670, he call. hims. betw. 70 and 80, we may judge with highest confidence, that when he d. 22 Jan. 1686, he had not run much beyond 90, and perhaps not reached it. Lewis, whose regard was absorbed by Boniface Burton, barely refers to Sewall's liberaI allowance to Redknap, but gives no addit. to the credit of the tradit. Sewall was very apt to believe what old persons told him, often when their habits or power of mind should rather have led to distrust their evidence. He owned est. at Hampton in Co. Middlesex, called Blackbush right, near Hampton Court, wh. he sold in 1649 to Edward Tomlyns. REDMAN, JOHN, Hampton, a blacksmith, one of the early sett. in 1685 was call. 70 yrs. old. JOHN, Hampton 1678, prob. s. of the preced. m. Martha, d. of John Cass, may have had John. RICHARD, Boston 1639, a mariner, was charged for murder, 1645, in Delaware Bay, long imprison. but acquit. for defect. of evid. See Winthr. II. 237. Yet the Court rec. seems to permit us to suppose, that his discharge was for conven. of the prison keeper. ROBERT, Dorchester, was of Milton when he made his will, 30 Dec. 1678, pro. 31 Jan. foll. wh. ment. w. Luce; eldest s. John; youngest s. Charles; ds. Mercy; Ruth wh. m. Everenden, that is an unkn. man; and s.-in-law William Delene, also unkn. so by conject. may seem h. of Ruth. REDWAY, REDWEY, READAWAY, or REDDAWAY, JAMES, Rehoboth 1646, prob. had John, perhaps more, as Sarah, wh. m. 25 May 1660, Samuel Carpenter; and was bur. 28 Oct. 1676. JOHN, Rehoboth, prob. s. of the preced. had James, b. 10 Jan. 1679; and John, 10 Sept 1682. REEVE, or REEVES, HENRY, came in the Speedwell 1656, from London, aged only 8 yrs. but whose care he was deliv. we kn. not. JOHN, Salem, came in the Christian to Boston 1635, aged 19, from London, prob. as apprent. of Francis Stiles, wh. next yr. carr. him to Windsor; but in 1643, he had gr. of ld. at S. by w.

Elizabeth his own s. William, and d. Elizabeth his s.-in-law Ephraim Kempton, h. of his d. Mary, and her s. John and Ephraim. But material differ. in a later will, 10 May 1681, so enlarg. the devise to K. and his w. and lessen that to William, as to make dispute in Ct. upon its valid. Other ch. of Richards are ment. as John, Mary, and Joanna, that may be the same as Joshua. ROBERT, Hartford, by w. Elizabeth d. of John Nott of Wethersfield, had Sarah, b. 23 Dec. 1663; Mary, 31 July 1665; Elizabeth Dec. 1668; Hannah, Oct. 1670; Nathaniel, Oct. 1672; Robert and Ann, tw.

The venerable Dr. tils in "History of three of the Judges the regicides gave this name Peirce, p. 352. THOMAS, Roxbury, came in the Bevis 1638, from Southampton, serv. of Henry Byley of Salisbury, at R. as serv. of John Gore until 1644, m. at R. 15 Apr. 1645, Hannah Rowe, was made freem. that yr. had Thomas, bapt. 5 July 1646; rem. that yr. to Springfield, there had Hannah, 11 Feb. 1649; and John, 12 Mar. 1651, posthum. d. next yr. was the town drummer and d. 5 Nov. 1650. His wid. m. 4 June 1651, Richard Exel; Mary, perhaps his d. m. 17 Feb. 1670, William Webster, and was terribly troubled as a witch. THOMAS, Southampton, L. I. 1673, was b. that goodman R. of the adjoining town of Southold, made freem. of Conn. 1662; had a. d. wh. m. Peter Dickinson; perhaps other childr. and it may be that Tapping R. the learned jurisprud. of Conn. wh. was b. at Southold, driv. blood from him. WILLIAM, Salem 1668, prob. br. of John, came in the Elizabeth and Ann from London 1635, aged 22.

Dec. 1675 REITH, RICHARD, Lynn, m. 16 Feb. 1665, Elizabeth George, as Mr. Felt copies the rec. The name is strange; but he is found at Marblehead 1674. RELPH, RALPH, or RELF, THOMAS, Warwick, m. 1655 or 6, Mary, wid. of John Cooke of the same. But he had liv. some yrs. bef. at Guilford, there by w.

He had prob. liv. some time at W. bef. getting the new w. and by her had Alice, b. 3 Jan. 1657, d. young; Thomas, 12 July 1658; Sarah, 4 Dec. 1661; and Deliverance, 20 Aug. 1666; beside Benjamin, of wh. the last four with Samuel, are ment. in his will, pro. 1682. It also names gr.ch. William Fenner, and cousin Samuel Stafford. REMICK, CHRISTIAN, Kittery freem. 2. In Maine and New Hampsh. this name is diffus. and on Cape Cod prob. as descend. are seen in ea. direction. REMIGTON, or RIMMINGTON, JOHN, Newbury, 1637, freem. 22 May 1639, rem. to incorp. with Bradstreet, Denison and others as milit. comp. [[524]] 1645, and was lieut. had Joseph, b. 1650; and Thomas.

Five of the name had in 1798, been gr. at Harv. and one at Yale. RENDALL, JAMES, perhaps of Portsmouth 1686, m. I suppose, Martha wid. of John Lewis, d. of William Brooking. See Randall. REVELL, JOHN, Salem, a merch. of London, greatly engag. in the promot. of settlem. of Mass. Bay, by the Gov. and Comp. chos. an Assist. 20 Oct. 1629, came in the Jewell, one of Winthrop's fleet, June 1630, but went home next mo. in the Lion. THOMAS, New London 1658, a merch. from London at Barbadoes 1660, but liv. there 1662-66. Miss Caulkins thinks he was proscribed at the restorat. having stood for the Commonwealth, that he is the hermit of Braintree at a later date, called "Tom Revel," a regicide, or holy hermit gone crazy, he and his hog enjoying their common stye, of wh. absurd tradit. in Whitney's Hist. of Quincy is given, that when he d. the Gov. of the Province and other disting. men came out from Boston, and were his pall-bearers." That the hog, being nearest relat. was chief mournere, is unaccountab. omit. Usual. there is some slight foundation of truth, to afford appear. of support to the wildest story; but here even that is wanting. We read the ridic. tale in a note on p. 36. Every one knows, that there was no regicide of this name; that no Gov. of the Prov. after 1691, could have been such a fool, nor would any Gov. of the Col. after 1660, have shown such public honor to a regicide; nor lastly is any such name, as Rev. W. P. Lunt, after scrutiny of Braintree rec. assures me, to be found among d. at B. [[525]] REW, EDWARD, Newport 1638, was of Taunton 1643, where he m. Sarah, d. of John Richmond; and Baylies says II. 282, he d. 16 July 1678, leav. no ch. and his wid. m. 4 Nov. foll. James Walker.

See Rayner. REYNOLDS, RENOLD, or RENOLDS, FRANCIS, Kingstown, in the Narraganset country, 1686, was perhaps s. of James the first. HENRY, Salem, had gr. of ld. 1642, was of Lynn 1647, and perhaps again of S. HENRY, Kingstown, wh. m. Sarah, d. of James Greene, was br. of Francis. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. 183. JAMES, Plymouth, if we may suppose his name to be carelessly spell. Renell in 1643, perhaps rem. to R. I. jurisdict. and bef. 1674, was with fam. of sev. s. esta. at Wickford, in the Narraganset ld. and in the conflict betw. Conn. and R. I. for jurisdict. was imprison. by one party. See Trumbull, CoI. Rec. II. 540. JAMES, jr. and JOSEPH, inhab. there 1687, as well as bef. ment. Francis and Henry, may have all been his s. of wh. James m. 19 Feb. 1685, Mary d. of James Greene; Henry m. Sarah, ano. d. of the same; and Elizabeth ano. d. m. also a Reynolds. JOHN, Watertown 1634, freem. 6 May 1635; Sarah, perhaps his w. came with many people of W. in the Elizabeth from Ipswich, Co. Suff. 1634, aged 20, rem. in two yrs. to Wethersfield, rem. again bef. 1644, to Stamford, and may have been f. of Jonathan and John, freem. in 1669, of Greenwich, where the fam. long contin. JOHN, an early sett. at Isle of Shoals, complain. against in 1647 (when he was constable), for having a w. there, as he might have been on the mainland, for not hav. one. See 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. VlI. 250. JOHN, Saybrook, rem. to Norwich, with first sett. a. 1659, made freem. 1663, selectman 1669; had eleven c. of wh. Caulkins in her Hist. ment. John, b. at S. Aug. 1655; Sarah, Nov. 1656; Susanna, Oct. 1658; Joseph, Mar. 1660; Mary, 1664; Elizabeth 1666; Stephen, Jan. 1669; and Lydia, Feb. 1671. The s. John was k. by the Ind. 28 Jan. 1676. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. II. He perhaps was of Stonington 1670, but d. at N. 1702, leav. only s. Joseph, ds. Sarah, w. of the sec. John Post, Mary Lothrop; Elizabeth Lyman; and Lydia Miller. JOHN, Weymouth, carpenter, by w. Ann had Mary, b. 15 Mar. 1660, prob. rem. soon, for in 1664, he sold W. est. JOHN, Wethersfield, perhaps s. of John the first, had Kezia, b. 1667; Ann, 1669; Rebina, 1671; John, 1674; Jonathan, 1677; and d. 1682. JOHN, Providence 1676.

NATHANIEL, Boston, s. of Robert the first, perhaps b. in Eng. [[526]] shoemaker, m. 30 Dec. 1657, or as ano. rec. has it, 7 Jan. 1658, Sarah, d. of John Dwight of Dedham, had Sarah, b. 26 July 1659; Mary, 20 Nov. 1668; Nathaniel, 3 Mar. 1662; and by w. Priscilla, had John, 4 Aug 1668; Peter, 26 Jan. 1670; Philip, 15, bapt. 20 Sept. 1674, and Joseph, b. 29 Dec. 1676. He was of ar. co. 1658, freem. 1665, and I think that capt. in Philip's war on serv. at Chelmsford, 25 Feb. 1676. He is in Boston tax list of 1695; but perhaps had some yrs. liv. at Bristol. His s. John was, I presume, that mem. of the sec. ch. at Newport, that Presid. Stils, in MS. Itiner. notes the d. of Bristol, 30 Jan. 1757, in his 90th yr. RICHARD, a passeng. in the Mary and John 1634, of wh. I kn. no more. ROBERT, Watertown 1635, shoemaker, freem. 3 Sept. 1634, was dism. by the ch. 29 Mar. 1636, to form a ch. at Wethersfield, but prob. after few yrs. rem. to Boston, had w. Mary, but no ch. is found; in town or ch. rec. so that we infer that all the five ch. named in his will of 20 Apr. 1658, good abstr. of wh. is in Geneal. Reg. IX. 137, viz. Ruth Whitney, w. of John, Tabitha wid. of Matthew Abdy, Sarah Mason, and Mary Sanger, w. of Richard, beside Nathaniel, above, must have been brot. from Eng. He is ment. with remarka. kindness in the will of Capt. Robert Keayne, and d. 27 Apr. 1659. ROBERT, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. Jan. 1669; and Ann, 11 Aug. 1670. I think he was a fisherman, may have been s. of the preced. and liv. at Pulling Point. As New London, perhaps on the tax list of 1666, m. 1 Oct. 1683 Sarah, d. of Joseph Clark the first of Newport, and in 1680 had a lot at Westerly. WILLIAM, Duxbury 1636, m. 30 Aug. 1638, Alice Kitson, may be the same wh. was in 1634 one of Howland's men, when the dispute in Kennebeck riv. caus. d. of two men and of Cape Porpoise 1653, then adm. freem. of Mass. to wh. gr. of 200 acres at Kennebunk 4 or 5 yrs. bef. had been made. WILLIAM, Providence, as early as May 1637. WILLIAM, Salem, in Felt's list of ch. mem. it appears that she was adm. 1640. Ten of this name had been gr. at Yale 1852, and three at Harv.

Mercy, youngest d. of Roger Williams, wh. had been w. of Samuel Winsor, and bef. that of Resolved Waterman. JOHN, Boston 1659, shoemaker, may not have been of Providence 1676. JOHN, Lynn, freem. [[527]] 1684, perhaps was of Marblehead 1673. JOSEPH, Lynn, prob. s. of Henry, freem. 1677 or 1684, and again took the o. 1690, as perhaps did others a sec. time, after the overthrow of Andros, m. 25 May 1674, Jane Coates, had Samuel, b. 6 Mar. 1675, d. at 4 mos..; Elizabeth 22 Aug. 1676; Joseph, 1 Apr. 1678, d. at 3 mos.; Jane, 14 July 1679; John, 20 Jan. 1682; and Susanna, 18 Nov. 1684.

Agnes Rice, so that I doubt she was not first, but sec. w. unless Agnes and Ann mean one woman. Childr. by w. Ann, acc. Barry, were John; Lydia, b. 30 July 1648, d. soon; Lydia, again, 10 Dec. 1649; Edmund, 9 Dec. 1653; Daniel, 8 Nov. 1655; Caleb, 8 Feb. 1658, d. soon; Ann, 9 Nov. 1661; Dorcas, 29 Jan. 1664; Benjamin, 22 Dec. 1666; and Abigail, 9 May 1671; rem. to Marlborough, was a deac. and d. 15 Aug. 1712 at gr. age, and his wid.

Of course he was 65, or at most, 69 yrs. old, but then age is kind. stretched to 71, in Geneal. Reg. XIlI. 140. GERSHOM, Worcester, br. of the preced. d. 29 Dec. 1768, at the gr. age of 101, as may be read in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 140. He had seven ch. [[529]] all then liv.

His age was 61 yrs. but in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 140, made to run up to 72. Perhaps his w. was Sarah, and he had at Framingham Daniel, b. 13 Mar. 1705. JOHN, Boston, by w. Mary, had John, b. 9 May 1669.

So they had liv. as h. and w. over 70 yrs. but whether any ch. came of the union is not told yet, but may be when the fam. geneal. is publish. JOSEPH, Sudbury, prob. youngest s. of Edmund the first, b. in Eng. m. 1658, Mercy King, perhaps d. of Thomas of Watertown, but no issue is found in Barry, wh. says, by w. Martha he had Martha, b. 14 Jan. 1662; Josiah, 3 May 1663; Caleb, 1666; and this w. Martha; 4 Jan. 1669; by third w. Mary, by Bond thot. d. of Capt.

NATHANIEL, Sudbury, s. of Thomas the first, had Nathaniel, Mary, and Patience, but he had two ws. Sarah, and next m. 1704, wid. Patience Stone, and he d. 13 Nov. 1726.

His w. d. 1749, and he d. 28 Nov. 1753, aged 95 yrs. and one mo. less a week, allow for change of style. By the common tendency to exagger. he is made 97 in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 140. Sev. of his ch. reach. old age. PHILIP, Boston 1640, is call. a tailor, on his unit. with [[531]] the ch. 21 Nov. 1641. He d. prob. in 1665.

Shattuck judicious. reduced. Farmer reports that he left 8 s. wh. liv. to gr. ages, showing how easy tradition borrowed for him the facts of Edmund, of wh. he is not kn. to be a relat. ROBERT, Boston, spelled Roys, Rois, and Royce, in dif. rec. freem. 1 Apr. 1634, had prob. come 1631, as he is No. 137 on the list of ch. mem. by w. Elizabeth had Joshua, b. 14, bapt. 16 Apr. 1637; Nathaniel, bapt. 24 Mar. tho. town rec. says b. 1 Apr. 1639; and Patience, b. 1 Apr. 1642, bur. next week; Nathaniel d. young. His wid. m.

Reg. XIII. 140, was made to live 96 yrs. His will was pro. 1681, so that we may be sure his age was by ten yrs. magnif. by his s. as in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 140; and the will of his wid. was pro. 1715. THOMAS, Marlborough, eldest s. of the preced. by w. Ann m. 1681, had Jeremiah, b. 1690; Abiel; Ann; Arthur; Adonijah; Perez; Vashti; Beriah; Jason; Thomas; and Charles. In Geneal. Reg.

Twenty four of this name had been gr. at Harv. in 1849, and six at Yale.

Reg. XIV. 111, says, next day, wh. was Friday; and Sarah, 1651; was freem. 2 June 1641. From his will, 1684, shortly bef. his d. we learn, that John and Nathaniel were then liv. that Mary m. Nathaniel Bullard, and ano. d. m. a Hearsey; that a gr.d. was Mary Gay, prob. w. of Jonathan, and d. of Bullard; and that if Nathaniel would bring up one of his s. at the coll. he should have L60. EDWARD, complained of 1646, by Gerard Spencer, my have been of Lynn, a joiner in 1661, was in 40th yr. had William, b. 7 June 1663; in 1678 swore that he liv. there 5 yrs. and d. 26 Jan. 1690, in 74th yr. it is said, leav. s.

His wid. d. 27 June 1704. JOHN, New London, of whose orig. or date of arr. in our country we are in. was there bef. 1660, says Caulkins, had eldest s. John, b. 1666; Israel; Mary; Penelope; Lydia; Elizabeth; and Hannah; but when she assures us that all the seven were bapt. 26 Mar. 1671, we necessarily deduce that most, if not all, of the ds. were b. bef. the eldest s. and that careful writer suppos. he was m. bef. he sett. at New London. He had also David, bapt. 27 July 1673, and d. 1687. His d. Lydia m. 15 Nov. 1678, William Mynard. JOHN, Dedham, s. of Edward the first, by w. Mary, had John, b. 20 July 1663, was freem. 1671.

Perhaps he was s. of the first Thomas, of Hartford, m. Dec. 1665, Mary Graves, and d. early without issue. He d. I find, 1662. at New Haven.

WILLIAM, Plymouth 1633, Haz. I. 327, but in 1643, he is not found there. Deane thinks he rem. to Scituate; but he presumes him to have rem. also to [[535]] Weymouth, wh. may be true, and yet not be what Deane thought, the same as WILLIAM, Weymouth 1648, perhaps br. of Thomas of the same by w.

Edward R. d. there, 25 Mar. 1655; but he does not inform us, whether this were ch. or adult. One was 61 yrs. in 1678. EDWARD, Newbury, s. of the preced. m. 28 Oct. 1673, Ann, prob. d. of Christopher Bartlett, had Mary, b. says Coffin, 25 Oct. 1673, d. young; Edward, 2 Sept. 1674; Mary, again, 25 Aug. 1676; Moses, 22 Jan. 1680; and Margaret, 7 July 1682; and he d. as in Coffin, 14 Nov. foll.

He was not of T. so late as 1643, but perhaps in R. I. where I find him 1655, yet late in life went again to T. d. 20 Mar. 1664, aged a. 70. Abstr. of his will made at T. 14 Dec. 1663, is in Geneal.

THOMAS, Gloucester, eldest s. of the preced. m. 22 Nov. 1687, Ann Wheeler of Salisbury, had the same number of ch. male and fem. as his br. John, call. the s. Thomas, Moses, Aaron, and Joshua, but the seven ds. go without names, and all the ch. without dates. RIGHT, GEORGE, freem. 18 May 1642, was, I think, either of Dorchester or Weymouth; tho. more prob. with an initial W. of Braintree. JOSEPH, Woburn, freem. 1690, when jun. is affix. so that there was an elder of the same name. ROBERT, Boston, had d. Hannah, wh. m. 1669, William Hoar; but the spelling is often with initial W.

ISAAC, Ipswich, perhaps s. of the preced. m. a. 1692, Elizabeth d. of John Dutch. JARVIS, Salisbury, freem. 1690. We may hardly doubt that this should be Ring, and that he was s. of Robert. JOHN, Ipswich 1664, was perhaps br. of the preced. Daniel, H. C. 1709, wh. d. 1712, may have been s. of Isaac, or other s. of first Daniel.

JOHN, Salisbury, s. of Robert, by w. Priscilla had Moses, b. 30 Apr. 1692. ROBERT, Salisbury, one of the first sett. came in the Bevis, 1638, from Southampton, as serv. of Richard Austin, was perhaps br. of John, freem. 9 Oct. 160, by w.

Norfolk, Eng. was freem. 18 May, 1642, m. 29 Sept. 1654, as sec. w. Elizabeth wid. of Thomas Thaxter, and d. 20 July 1656. His will of 30 June preced. abstr. in Geneal. Reg.

But strong reason is found in the will of Samuel Hutchinson and of Rev. John Wheelwright for presumpt. that f. and s. were by Farmer here confus. He had, beside Edward, prob. other ch. and perhaps had m. in Eng. a sis. of the w. of W. for S. H. in his will, Apr. 1667, gives to E. R. by the descript. of "eldest s. of sis.

At least, the magistr. of 1681, wh. was prob. the recorder of 1671, must be judged, after Apr. 1667, to have m. that Sarah W. the unm. d. of Rev. John, nam. in her uncle's will, and to be ment. in 1679 in the will of her f. calling him "s.-in-law." Difficulty, however, attends this hypothesis, because it is said, that Richard Crisp m. 1671, Sarah, that d. of Rev. John Wheelwright. Still, R. may have m. the cousin, wid. of C.

He was one of the first fruits of Wales that came to N. E. called to Christ by the ministry of that rev. and worthy instrument Mr. Wrath." In its proper place the rec. has this: "7 Jan. 1645/6, old mother Roberts, a Welch woman, d. in the 103d yr. of her age. She was above 90 yrs. old when she left her native country." He was freem. 22 May 1639, d. 27 Nov. 1651. Of not one of the seven ds. do I find the m. or d. JOHN, Marblehead 1668. JOHN, Dover, s. of Thomas of the same, m.

In Geneal. Reg. X. 303, may be read a fine specim. of the wretched vanity that was exhibit on the d. of a gr. s. 1774, wh. oft. characteriz. the obituary notices of people bearing the same surnames as memb. of noble houses in Eng. or France. THOMAS, Dover, prob. sett. there with the Hiltons, 1623, was Presid. of the Col. chos. in oppos. to noted John Underhill, had John, b. 1629; Thomas, 1633; Esther; Ann; Elizabeth and Sarah; and d. after 27 Sept. 1673 the date of his will, pro. 30 June foll.

But whether he had s. or not, is unascert. by the indefatig. Mr. Quint, to whom, for all informat. a. Dover, antiquaries are so much indebt. WILLIAM, Charlestown 1648, may have rem. to New Haven, there been propr. 1685. Perhaps by w. Joanna, he had William; Zachariah; Alice and Lydia, tw.; Ann, and Abigail. His s. William perpet. the fam.

EBENEZER, Sudbury, s. of William of Boston, a physician, stud. under the celebr. Boerhave, was much esteemed, and d. 1 or 4 Sept. 1772. HENRY, Hampton 1678, had been at Exeter, it is said, and Farmer had the date 1639, in wh. yr. he thought he rem. from Dorchester, but the name at D. was mistak. for Kibby; d. 1688, leav. w. Sarah, and ch. Thomas, Samuel, Ichabod, John, Judith, and Ruth. His will of 10 Jan. 1687, with codic. of 3 Apr. 1688 was pro. 5 June foll. But he had been m. 19 Feb. 1674, as 3d h. of Elizabeth wid. of John Garland, d. of Thomas Philbrick, wh. had first been w. of Thomas Chase; and he may have been that man, b. as in the Bible of his br.

Dr. Ebenezer cop. from at Castle Dunnington, the fam. seat, is mark. b. 12 Feb. 1628/9, with the add. "went to New Eng." but I have never heard of his arr. and fear that his int. may have been [[549]] defeat. by the civ. war. No more recent accounts of him have been told, unless he were their inhab. of New Hampsh. wh. prayed for jurisdict. of Mass. 1690, and perhaps br. of Henry.

GEORGE Swanzey, Winsor says m. 12 Nov. 1680, Elizabeth Gaille (so strange a name that I think it may be a mistake of Col. Rec. and serve scrutiny might discover Cole, or ano. word), had John, b. 5 Sept. 1681; but prob. by a former w. whose name I see not, had Nathaniel, b. 1 Nov. 1673, bur. one week aft.; Samuel, 16 Nov. 1679. GEORGE, Boston, prob. s. of George the first, by w. Elizabeth had George B. 28 Dec. 1680; John, 13 June 1684; and perhaps more. GEORGE, Watertown, by w.

He was taxed 1634, when perhaps he liv. on Duxbury side, but was freem. of Scituate 1636, there m. 1636, Margaret Hanford, sis. of Rev. Thomas, Niece of Timothy Hatherly, sold his est. 1639, and with Rev. Thomas, Lathrop rem. to Barnstable, had Susanna, bapt. at S. 21 Jan. 1638; and John, at B. 5 Apr. 1640; Isaac, 7 Aug. 1642, Fear 26 Jan. 1645; and Mercy, 4 July 1647, all rememb. exc.

Isaac, the younger, was m. in 1666, but drown, 6 Oct. 1668. Mercy m. 16 Mar. 1669, William Weeks. He m. a sec. w. whose name of bapt. is not, I think, giv. by the tradit. wh. calls her sis. of famous elder Faunce, but our rec. proves, that he had Israel, bapt. 5 Oct. 1651; and Jacob, 15 May 1653. Peter and Thomas are add. by Mr. Otis. By the teach. of his worthy f. as well as his experience, he gain. the wisdom thro. wh. he was oppos. to Gov. Prince's policy of severity against the Quakers, 1659, and was disfranchis. Deane says. But he would have him count. an Assist. wherein he was wrong. He may be more corr. in saying he liv. 93 yrs. In some of his latter yrs. he was of Martha's [[551]] Vineyard, Mr. Otis says. Prince is very careful (p. 238 of Hale's ed. of the Annals, Boston 1826), after saying that he "liv. to above 90 yrs. of age," to add that he had often seen him, and that he "left male posterity." He greater reverence for the Leyden paster convinces me. that he would equally have ment. were such the opinion as to Abraham; yet the fact that nothing is ever seen of the wid. mo. in any earlier writer, militates somewhat with my opinion. Still no reason thence can be deduced in favor of Abraham being s. of the glorious John, and the opinion or suggestion of Mr. Babson in the note of careful Mr. Deane, Bradford, 247, as to the obsecurity of Mrs. Robinson on our side of the water, is not to be explain, by her suppos. residence at Salem, where, in Felt's list of mem. of the ch. is a wid. Ann R. join. in 1637. The greater probability appears to me, that she d. very soon after reach. our shores; yet she must be inquired for, not at Cape Ann, but on the other side of the Bay of Mass. unless some appearance of tradit. in favor of Abraham be found, as it has not been, in the first, sec. third, or fourth generat. of her descent. ISAAC. Lynn 1637, came in the Hopewell, Babb, master, late in 1635, aged 15, was perhaps early d. at least Lewis gives nothing of him. ISAAC, Tisbury, s. of the first Isaac, was bapt. Israel, as Mr. Otis, with much sagacity argues, and that after the drown. of his first Isaac, he call, this s. for him, as the name Israel is no more heard aft. 1668, and Isaac d. 1728, mak. his will 5 Feb. wh. was pro. 1 Oct. foll. JACOB, New Haven, m. 1690, Sarah Hitchcock, had John, b. 3 Dec. 1691; Thomas, 5 Dec. 1693; Sarah, 24 Dec. 1695; Hannah, 24 Feb. 1698; Mary; and Eliakim, 2 Apr. 1706. JACOB, Tisbury, s. of Isaac, d. bef. 19 Nov. 1733, when, on div. of his est. are ment. wild. Experience, and ch. Jacob, Isaac, and Mary. JAMES, Boston, m. 21 Feb. 1654, Martha Buck, had Sarah, b. 24 Mar. 1660; John, 17 Sept. 1662; James, 21 July 1667; and Elizabeth; was a mariner. I suppose both s. d. young, for he gave his est. in 1673 to John Hull and Thomas Brattle in tr. for hims. for life, next for w. Martha for life, and then to use of his ds. Elizabeth and Sarah. JAMES, Dorchester, m. 27 Sept. 1664, Mary, d. of Thomas Alcock, had James, b. 8 Nov. 1665; Thomas, 15 Apr. 1668; Samuel, 4 Sept. 1670; Mary, 17 Mar. 1673, d. young; John, 17 Apr. 1675, H. C. 1695, min. of Duxbury; Henry, 21 June 1678, d. very soon; and Ebenezer, 5 Jan. 1682, wh. was k. 27 May 1707, at Port Royal, in the abortive siege; was freem. 1690, and d. 18 Apr. 1694. His wid. d. 13 Mar. 1718, aged 73. JAMES, Boston, by his will, 3 Sept. 1676, pro. 3 days aft. names no w. nor ch. but gives est. to brs. Thomas, Joseph, and sis. Mary, one half, and other half to aunt Eliz, w. of Joseph Rock, and cousin Hannah, w. of James Brading. This proves, that he was s. of deac. Thomas of Scituate. JAMES, Newcastle 1683, then of the [[552]] gr. jury, had liv. at Scarborough 1666, there m. Lucretia, d. of Richard Foxwell, had four ds. and rem. on the Ind. hostil. 1675 to N. whence they did not return. JOHN, Salem 1639, in Felt's list of ch. mem. where also appear Ann, a wid. and Isabella, both 1637. He was prob. the freem. of 2 June 1641, may have rem. to Boston, and in a will of 2 June 1653, giv. his prop. to mo. or sis. if alive; but this condition seems hardly consist. with the prob. that the fem. ch. mem. of Salem. 1637, could be those. His inv. was ret. Nov. 1653. Ano. JOHN was of New London 1646-9, yet Caulkins could only tell of his house lot; and he may have d. at Ipswich, 1 Mar. 1657, if Farmer have the date right; but a JOHN of Ipswich, wheelwright, wh. in his will of 27 Feb. pro. 30 Mar. 1658, names no ch. and to swell the confus. ano. JOHN was there liv. 1660. JOHN, early at Haverhill, rem. to Exeter 1657, perhaps f. of David, Johnathan, and * Stephen, was k. by the Ind. as Hubbard tells, Sept. 1675.

His w. with eldest ch. Mary was drown. 22 Sept. 1722, at Nantasket, on their voyage to Boston; and he d. 14 Nov. 1745; more than 7 yrs. aft. separat. from his cure, at the residence in Lebanon of the first Gov.

NICHOLAS, a passeng. in the Blessing from London, 1635, aged 30, call. them Robertson, is thot. by me to mean Robinson, because in the same voyage came Elizabeth 32; Catherine, 12; Mary, 7; John, 5; and SARAH, 1 1/2; all spell, in the latter form, and may have been, especial. if we imagine his yrs. were two or three more, his w. and childr.

Having examin. the orig. I testify, that Robinson is as plain as any name in the vol. ROBERT, Newbury, m. 26 Oct. 1664.

Coffin says he was b. 1628, and from the births of ch,. we should confident. believe, that he was not the Robert, wh. came from London in the Christian, early in 1635, aged 45, but of him no discov. is obtain. ROWLAND, Narraganset, b. says Potter, a. 1654, came 1675, m. Mary Allen, d. of John, but wh.

Timidity that liberated the innocent. Hull was a milit. man, and felt that discipline requir. the enemy of God especial. to be put to death.

James, New London, is by Miss Caulkins thought to be that passeng. in the Increase from London, 1635, aged 20, and was early at Stratford, there m.

In 1677, his w. was fin. for absence from pub. worship as estab. by the governm. and soon after he and his w. were vexed for worsh. estab. by his f. and friends. He d. 8 Nov. 1713. JEREMIAH, Dorchester, m. Mehitable, d. prob. eldest of John Pierce, and had three ch. as in the will of their gr.f. Pierce in 1661, is ment. viz. Margaret, bapt. 1653; Mehitable, b. 6 Oct. 1658; and Ichabod, bapt. 27 May 1660, brot. to D. for the Ordin. from Lancaster, whither his f. had rem. beside prob. that Sarah, wh. by rec. of D. d. 21 Sept. 1657. JOHN, Duxbury 1634, prob. of Plymouth 1631, rep. 1657, by w. Frances, had John, Joseph, Timothy, Ann, Mary, and Abigail. In his will of 1 Feb. 1661, he calls hims. of Marshfield, names w. and the six ch. beside gr.ch. George and John Russell. Ann m. John Hudson; and one of the other ds. m. the sec. George Russell. He may have been br. of the first Thomas. JOHN, Watertown 1636, freem. 17 May 1637; JOHN, Weymouth, m. 16 Apr. 1639, Ann, d. prob. of Hugh Churchman, had Lydia, b. 27 Mar. 1642, rem. 1644., to Scitutate, going thither, with Rev. Mr. Witherell. This led Deane, he says, to conject. that he was a descend. of him of Smithfield, whose martyrdom was above 99 yrs. bef. and perhaps a slighter conject. never was brought in aid of a trifling tradit. A tradit. prob. equal. worthless, to sustain that, is giv. by D. that the mo. of W. was also a descend. of the martyr. He had also John, Thomas, and Samuel, prob. the first, if not more, b. in Eng. and went back to W. there d. 11 Feb. 1662. The Weymouth man was a deac. and his will of 8 Feb. 1661, pro. 30 Apr. foll. satisfied me. that Deane had confus. two if not three Johns into one. (See Geneal, Reg. X. 265-6). It gives est. to w. Judith, s. John, ds. Mary Rane, i.e. prob. Rand, w. of John, Lydia, wh. m. 19 Sept. 1660, Joseph White; Hannah m. the same day, Samuel Pratt, and Sarah. The h. of Mary was John. So that we may be sure that Scituate man, with s. Thomas and Samuel, was ano. and that Deane misled Barry in his Hist. of Hanover; and Winsor in his Hist. of Duxbury. JOHN, Watertown, freem. 13 Mar. 1639, m. 1640, Priscilla Dawes at Boston, wh. on her join. the ch. is call. maid serv. of our Elder Thomas Oliver, had John, b. 11 Sept. 1641; Mary, 26 Oct. 1643; Thomas; Daniel Nathaniel; and prob. sev. ds. was perhaps a baker, rem. to Billerica, there his d. Abigail m. Arthur Warren of Chelmsford; Priscilla, wh. m. 19 Jan. 1682, Simon Coolidge, as sec. w. was prob. ano. His s. John was k. by the Ind. 5 Aug. 1695, was also, on the same day, his br. [[562]] Thomas, and his s. Thomas, aged 11 yrs. Both these s. as well as Daniel and Nathaniel, and d. Priscilla are nam. in his will, made three days aft. that date, of wh. T. and N. were excors. From this we learn also that he had sec. w. for he gives to his w.'s s. George Brown, and her d. Mary B. and he d. 25 Jan 1686. But ano. JOHN, prob. older, was of Watertown as early perhaps as the preced. and may have been of Dedham 1636, m. so late as Nov. 1653 (but it may have not been first w.), Abigail Martin, had Abigail, b. 21 Jan. 1657; and he d. 22 Dec. 1674, aged 80. Dr. Bond suppos. he was f. of Billerica John. JOHN, Scituate, s. of John of the same, prob. b. in Eng. m. at Boston, 8 Oct. 1656, Rhoda, d. of Elder Thomas King of S. had John, and perhaps Abigail, or others, but not, I think, the Mary, or Elizabeth or Hannah ascrib. to him by Deane, as they were ds. of the Weymouth deac.; Mary was sis. of her wh. m. Joseph White of S. and of the other two, prob. unless the dates for m. of the three several. were by him intend. to mean dates of b. Confus. in Deane, is here evident, but what he should have said is uncert. Abigail m. 1678, Timothy White of S. JOHN, Milford 1646, d. 1684. His will of 1 Dec. 1683, names ch.

Presid. to succeed Hoar, 1676, but decline. and his classmate Oakes was appoint. but aft. d. of O. he was again chos. 1683, when Mather and Torrey had declin. the offer, and d. 2 July 1684, less than one yr. from enter. on his office.

Nov. 1636, and on 20 Feb. 1638 was ord. as collea. with Norton, to succeed Nathaniel Ward, wh. strange, gave up his profession; was freem. 23 May 1639, tho. the magistr. at I. had authority to adm. him 6 Sept. preced. and d. 3 July 1655, a century after the faggot's blaze in Smithfield, and about a hundred yrs. bef. the earliest surmise of the derivat. from the hero of it, of the num. and honorable families here of the same name. His will, numcup. was pro. 26 Sept. in the hand-writ. of Ezekiel Cheever, first master of the gram. sch. at I. He had carefully kept a Diary, but was wise eno. to see it burned bef. his d. This he, or his kinsman, Ezekiel, were descent. of the celebr. Smithfield martyr, might seem to be justif. by the note of Hutch. I 190, wh. cites Hubbard, tho. the earliest [[565]] hist. says nothing like it. Into such carelessness Hutch. does not oft. fall. Hubbard, wh. m. the only d. of this Nathaniel, clearly eno. calls him s. of Rev. John of Dedham, wh. he honarab. marks as the famous preach. as if "it might be honor eno. to say" of Nathaniel, "that he was the s. of Mr. John," "yet heir of a double portion of his spirit, and worthy to have transmit. more honor to his posterity than he received from those bef. him by reason of his emin. learning, singular piety, holy zeal, with other ministerial abilities." See Hubbard, 554. Surely the hist. could not intend a slur upon the learning, piety, holy zeal, or minist. abilities of him wh. glorified his master in the martyr's fire; and the irresistib. inference is, that he, tho. so intimately related to Nathaniel, had never heard of his descent from the protomartyr of Queen Mary. Tho. he is wholly silent as to John's progenit. hardly can it seem possible that our Ispwich Hist. should not have stated the propagat. of the martyr's seed on our side of the water, when hims. m. (as idly report.) a gr.d. and his sis. (both nam. Margaret), m. Ezekiel, a gr.s. It would have been equally sure to be ment. by him, if these two ms. had been of the fourth or fifth generat. no less than of the third as assert. Neither Johnson, who expends verse upon both of the min. of Ipswich and Rowley, then liv. nor the more judicious and equally affectionate contempor. annalist, Gov. Winth, nor garrulous Mather in his Magn. all-gathering, especial. of doubtful reports, nor Ch. J. Sewall, jealous for the honor of puritans, nor Prince, the pattern of accuracy in minute detail, hint at any such glorious ancest. more than Hubbard. I presume the tradit. has no older origin. that Hutchinson's day; and perhaps he got it, as may have also Dr. Eliot, from their common friend, Rev. Daniel of Littleton, whose f. Daniel was perhaps so nam. out of rever. to Maj.-Gen. Daniel Dennison, f. of this mo. whose only d. she was, rather than of Daniel, s. of the martyr of Smithfield, whose memory puritans would gladly forget, as he was a courtier, and did not keep the godly simplicity of the sufferer. My admirable friend, the late Dr. Eliot, who in his Biog. Dict. gave currency to the tradit. as if it were authentic, had assist. he tells us, the Rev. Daniel, some mos. in his pulpit; and the gr.st. at L. over the clerg. that d. Nov. 1782, shows now the sleeper there accept. the honor, But the four generat. of silence on our side of the ocean, add. to the prior eighty yrs. stillness of the mother country, forbid me to entertain any respect for the report first heard in the fifth age of our own history. All the evidence is indeed of a negative charact. but so many facts are ascertain. quite inconsist. with the assumpt. founded on the mod. tradit. that it seems a far safer conclus, maybe dr. than if half a dozen pieces of positive testim . were laid for its substratum. From the silence of Giles Firmin, wh. had liv. at our Ipswich under the preaching of Nathaniel Rogers, and [[566]] wh. tells how his gr.mo. bec. w. of famous Richard Rogers, author of the seven treaties, and father of our Ezekiel, tho. he is very copious in acco. of both Richard and Dedham John, yet being wholly silent a. the witness of Smithfield fire, my friend, Charles Deane, the scrupulous antiquary at Cambridge, is strongly inclined to disbelieve, that either of these prominent Essex divines could be gr.s. much less own s. of the martyr. His valua. argument on the assum. point of genealogy may be seen in the Cambridge Chronicle of 3 Jan. 1850. Resort is had by the diligent writer in Geneal, Reg. V. 101, to the "identical bible wh. belong. to the protomartyr, print. in 1649," "own. by a descend. at Lunenburg" That volume had been oft. and once or twice with severest, not unaid. scutiny, examin. by me. It may be premised, that no English bible, print. in 1549, by Carwood and Jugge, printers of our Lunenburg exemplar, after diligent search for one hundred yrs. had been discovered; and all competent judges are now agreed, that the opinion formerly thrown out, as to such an edit. is without support But the Lunenburg copy is very clearly ascertain. to be of the yr. 1651, the earliest Eng. bible, indeed, of Elizabeth's reign, yet six yrs. after Rogers was burned at Smithfield. Infallible proof of this was furnish. by Mr. Stevens of London, and another mod. disting. biblic. bibliograph. George Offer of London, on a part of the volume sent from this country; and by collation, in many hours by myself, with a sheet of the bible of 1651, sent hither from London, by Mr. O. to his friend George Livermore, Esq. of Cambridge, the perfect. identity is exhibit. in the printer's monogram, the pictures, and the minutest parts of single words, and letters, in the text, correct as well as erroneous. So that this relic, however valua. in itself, affords no prop to the claim of descent from him, any more than it does to the wild tradit. that the noble martyr held this same precious copy in his hand, when suffering at the stake. In proof of the fable, Geneal, Reg. III. 373, truly says the vol. "is much burnt,?" and it might have add. that it better would have pleased the partakers of the triumph to have burned the book instead of the man. But of the burnt part, wh. very slightly affect. the print. Queen Elizabeth in her service book of 1661, suffers most, as I testify. Many of us know of volumes, burnt in part, that never were in the hands of martyrs in Smithfield. From every long protract, inquiry, in order to sustain or reverse my first express of better. belief in the descent of our N. E. posterity of Nataniel Rogers, the closest approach to any exact relation with the martyr amounts only to this: the f. of Rev. William Jenkin of London, wh. was min. of Sudbury, when William was b. 1612, and of course the predecess. of our John Wilson was gr.s. of a d. of the sufferer of 1555, and he had stud. under the old puritan, Richard Rogers of Wethersfield. See Palmer's Non-Conform. Mem. [[567]] Vol. I. Slight indeed, and very remote will his relationship appear; but no nearer connex, can be found, I think, betwe. any of our innumeraable Rogerses and the glorious suffer. John, the editor of Tyndall's bible. Encouragem. to adhere to the illusion, against the strong array of Mr. Deane's logic, was felt by some of the supporters of tradit. for the holy martyr's descent, on hearing that Mr. Hunter of London was slow in deciding adverse to the claim. No judgment, on such a point, could outweigh his. He says in a letter to me. Oct. 1866, "The subject has been so long absent from my mind, that I really do not now understand, how the question rests at present, or even what I may have written about it" -- "I know nothing but what I learned from America; and, on the other hand, I never saw in English docum. any evid. of the descent wh. they claim, wh. may, for any thing I kn. be correct, tho. I shd. like to see the evid. on wh. it rests. Something beyond tradit. is now demand. in all claims to ancestr. honors." Only will I add that this tradit. is very modern. In the mass of MS. gather. by Candler to illustr. the Puritan Hist. of Eng. tho. he is so copious upon the E. counties' confessors, no reference to the desc. of John of D. was perceiv. by Hunter, and this since the tradit. was first ment. within twenty yrs. The name was most widely diffus. in Eng. Perhaps there were near a hundred min. in the days of Elizabeth nam. Rogers, of wh. one or more may well have been s. of the proto-martyr of the preced. reign. In the Register of the single diocese of Salisbury by Sir Thomas Phillips, from 1297, to 1810, wh. he gave me, are rec. the institutions of Nicholas R. 1565; of Ambrose R. 1569; and of John R. 1582. So natural is it to infer that the blood of the sufferer should in the sec. and third generat. be blessed, that the writer of a Memoir of the fam. of Rev. Nathaniel, claiming to be a descend. in Geneal. Reg. V. 105, most copiously carried out, makes his f. John of Dedham, to be gr.s. of the martyr, and a student so diligent as Dr. Allen, in the Sec. Ed. of his Biog. Dict. made even Nathaniel the gr.s. whereas from the monum. inscript. on John, the Dedham min. we learn that he was not b. bef. 1571 or 2, 16 or 17 yrs. after the solemn scene of his supposed f's martyrd. in the midst of London. In his third Ed. however, the f. of Nathaniel is made gr.s. of Smithfield John. No tradit. that the f. of Nathaniel was descend. of the hero of 1555, had ever reached his successor at the altar, or the hearers in Dedham, bef. it was told by me in 1842. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 309. Good acco. it not to be any where found of the ten ch. male and fem. of the noble sufferer at Smithfield, exc. Daniel, ment. by Fox, the martyrolog. He got promotion at Court, under patronage of some civilian of Elizabeth and may hardly have encourag. the puritan tendency of any relative. See Hunter's Suffolk Emigr. 3 Mass. Histo. Coll. X. 165. There was a [[568]] John R. in the ch. one generat. later than Nathaniel's f. blessed John of Dedham, so strong a purit. as to give offence to Cromwell, wh. imprison, him at Lambeth, and aft. at Windsor; but the religion of the great soldier partook little of the fierce sincerity of Queen Mary, and he was too sagacious, if not humane, to put the confessor to death. See Brooks Lives III. 326. One John R. of our own days was min. at Rendham, in Co. Suffk. not long since and may still be.

Apphia, wh. he m. 3 Nov. 1659, had John, b. 12 Oct. 1660; Benjamin, 13 Sept. 1662, H. C. 1684, chaplain to our forces at Falmouth 1689, the sec. min. of Haverhill, ord.

His w. d. 24 Dec. 1708, and he d. 10 Aug. 1710. DANIEL, Ipswich, s. of Robert, wh. came not prob. to this country, m. Hannah, d. of Humphrey Bradstreet, had, perhaps, Daniel, Ezra, and other ch. and may have d. at Salem, June 1654. His wid. m. 12 June 1648. Nicholas Holt of Andover, and d. 20 June 1665. DANIEL Ipswich, s. prob. of the preced. may be that s.-in-law of Robert Collins, k. in Philip's war. EZRA, Haverhill, s. prob. of Daniel the first [[571]] m. 2 Mar. 1676, Abigail, d. of John Bond, had Abigail, b. 17 Sept. 1677; Ezra, 24 Nov. 1680; Daniel, 14 Feb. 1685; Mary and Martha, tw. 23 Nov. 1687; and he was wound. and capt. by the Ind. 17 Oct. 1689, and d. 3 days aft. HENRY, Newbury, one of the early sett. prob. from Co. Wilts, with w. and childr. of wh. John, Benjamin, and Hannah, wh. m. the first Richard Dole, are kn. d. 1 Mar. 1643; in his will of 15 Feb. preced. beside w. and ch. he names br. John and neph. John Saunders, and calls Thomas Whittier, kinsman. Perhaps his wid. was Honour, wh. d. at Charlestown, 19 Dec. 1650. JOHN, Newbury, br. of the preced. came in the Confidence 1638, from Southampton, aged 50, in the custom ho. call. husbandman of Melchit Park, Wilts, with w. Ann, d. Esther, and serv. Thomas Whittier, call. Whittle in Geneal, Reg. V. 440, and XIV. 335, was freem. 6 Sept. 1639, by our Secr. spell. Roffe, as at the Southampton custom h. Mr. Somerby in Geneal. Reg. V. 440, assures us it was Roaf, correcting Mr. Steven's eyesight in II. 109, Mr. Drake says, Geneal. Reg. XIV. 335, it was Roaff, vindicating the honor of Mr. Somerby's vision; in ea. of the three cases, no doubt, foll. the sound, as it reach. the ear of the subordinate official, bec. one of the earliest propr. of Salisbury, there taxed 1650 and 2; perhaps had sec. w. Esther, wh. d. 3 June 1647; in July 1663, he was one of the proprs. of Nantucket, and d. 8 Feb. 1664. His d. Esther m. John Saunders. But of ano. JOHN of Newbury, prob. s. of Henry, we hear, that he m. 4 Dec. 1656, Mary Scullard, possib. d. of Samuel, had Mary, b. 2 Nov. 1658, d. next mo.; Mary, again, 16 Jan. 1660; and Rebecca, 9 Feb. 1662; and Coffin thot. him br. of Henry, to wh. I discern obj. Ano. JOHN, Nantucket, may have gone from Newbury, but at the first nam. place had John, b. 5 Mar. 1664; Samuel, 8 Mar. 1665; Sarah, 2 Dec. 1667; Joseph, 12 Mar. 1670; and Hannah, 5 Feb. 1672; possib. may have gone back to Newbury, and been the man wh. Coffin says d. 30 Sept. 1681. Yet of ano. JOHN of Newbury, if he be not one of the preced. C. tells us that he had w. Dorothy, and s. John, b. 24 Mar. 1691; and Jonathan 2 Aug. 1695. Farmer names Thomas of Ipswich 1648, but he eludes my search, unless he be the man of Guilford, wh. had m. Elizabeth Disbrow, and for some heinous offence ran off for refuge to the col. of Rhode Island, and so his w. obt. divorce, 1 Oct. 1651, by the jurisdict. of New Haven col. resum. her maiden name, and m. John Johnson of the same town, and she d. 23 Dec. 1669. Four of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and three at the other N. E. coll. ROLLO, ALEXANDER, Middletown, one of the earliest proprs. of East Haddam, d. 22 July 1709. ROLLOCK, ROBERT, Sandwich, d. prob. Sept. 1669. ROMAN, JOHN, Cambridge, d. 19 Dec. 1638. Of this solitary name not other occurrence is kn. [[572]] RONALLS, JOHN, JOSIAH, and SAMUEL, perhaps br. s at Wickford 1674, may have spelled variously. ROOD, THOMAS, Norwich, had sev. childr. bef. liv. there; Sarah , b. Oct. 1649; Thomas, Mar. 1651; Micah, Feb. 16. 1653; Rachel, Feb. 1655; John, Sept. 1658; Joseph, Mar. 1661; Benjamin, Feb. 1633; Mary, Mar. 1664, d. soon; and Samuel, June 1666. His w. d. happi. Mar. 1668, for his d. Sarah was whip. and he execut. 18 Oct. 1672, as in Trumbull. Col. rec. II. 184, is detail. Perhaps the name was changed to Rudd or Rude. JOHN, with this latter spelling was a petitnr. 1686, for Preston townsh. ROOKER, WILLIAM, Hadley, petitio, against imposts. 1668, took the o. of alleg. 8 Feb. 1679. ROOKMAN, JOHN, came in the Abigail, 1635, aged 45, with w. Elizabeth 31, and s. John, 9; but the name is never found in any of our settlem. ROOME, or ROME, JOHN, Portsmouth 1638, is among freem. 1655, and is nam. in the royal chart. 1663. See Haz. II. 612. He was from Bristol, Eng. prob. for by his will he devis, ho. and ld. in that city to his w. Ann, wh. in 1669 gave her gr.s. William Cory, power to sell it.

His w. d. 15 May 1720; and he d. 25 May 1723. JONATHAN, Northampton 1680, s. of Thomas of the same, freem. 1690, m.

Not a few errors are seen in the acco. of his ms. and childr. in Geneal. Reg. VI. 267. THOMAS, Boston, mariner, m. Elizabeth d. of Ambrose Gale of Marblehead, had Mary; and in his will 18 Sept. 1683, pro. 31 Jan. foll. in wh. he says he is bd. on voyage to Jamaica, names only that w. ch. and f.-in-law.

He may have been s. or gr.s. of Walter; though in Farmer he is made tw. br. of Ephraim. EPHRAIM, s. of John of Dedham, serv. as a soldier under Capt. Turner in Philip's war, was in the Falls fight. His first w. was k. by the Ind. and he m. 20 Nov. 1677, Hannah, prob. the wid. of Stephen Goble, had Ruth, b. 7 Mar. 1681; and Elizabeth 17 Mar. 1683. He with w. and one d. was k. by the Ind. 1697.

C. 1745, Judge of the Sup. Ct. of the Prov. Some of the dates vary from those in the Essex Inst. RICHARD, Salem, prob. br. of the preced. m. 7 June 1670, Ruth, d. of John Ingersoll, had Richard, b. 20 Apr. 1674; and John, 16 Aug. 1678. The preced. sent. in Essex Inst. III. 96, is whol. giv. to R. Ross, wh. would be an easy mistake for Ropes in old chirogr. but I hardly dare to suppose such an error in a Salem man. SAMUEL, Salem, perhaps br. of George, sign. petition against impost 1668. WILLIAM, Salem, br. of the preced. m. 26 July 1676, Sarah Ingersoll, d. prob. of John, had Jonathan, b. 4 Nov. 1680; Sarah, 9 Jan. 1685; William, 5 Mar. 1686; George, 12 Aug. 1688; Richard, 1690; Joseph, 11 Jan. 1693; John, 24 Jan. 1695; and Ruth.

GIDEON, Scituate, s. of Thomas of the same, had Jabez and Jermiah, HENRY, came in the James from Southampton 1635; but no more is kn. of him. JEREMIAH, Scituate, s. of the first Thomas, mn. 1698, Eliz, d. of Anthony Collamore, had only Thomas, and d. 1699. His wid. m. Timothy Symmes. JOHN, Watertown 1636, rem. to Branford, was of the jury, perhaps, in 1649, and was liv. there 1667. He had m. the wid. of William Luddington in 1663, and d. in the spring of 1683, and Porter advises me, that the name should be Ross; and he adds to the issue, Elizabeth b. 21 Dec. 1665; and Hannah, 24 Aug. 1668; but his ch. by former w. were Martha, wh. m. William Luddington; John; Mary, wh. m. a Bates; and Hannah, w. prob. of Edward Frisbie. In his will, of 18 Apr. 1683, these are all ment. as is gr.d. Elizabeth Rose. He may have been s. of Robert, and f. of that John, wh. the Cambridge rec. says d. 12 Dec. 1640. JOHN, Scituate, s. of Thomas, k. by the Ind. 15 Mary. 1676, in Rehoboth fight, under Capt. Pierce. JOHN, New Haven, call. jr. m. Aug. 1670, Phebe, wid. of Joseph Potter, prob. had d. Elizabeth JOHN, Marshfield, perish. 13 Feb. 1677, with cold, when shoot. on the beach.

John, 15; Robert, 15; Elizabeth 13; Mary, 11; Samuel, 9; Sarah, 7; Daniel, 3; and Dorcas, 2; was constable 1640, rep. 1641, 2 and 3; rem. bef. 1648 to Stratford, where the list of freem. 1669 bears his name, unless it be of his s. ROBERT, wh. is more prob. for one R. (James, as Mr. Whitmore, in Geneal, Reg. XII. 301, says), d. at Branford, leav. good est. in 1664 or 5; and I judge the younger was among early sett. at Easthampton, L. I. 1650. His will of 25 Aug. 1664, and inv. of good est. 2 June foll. His w. Rebecca, ch. Jonathan, Hannah, John, Mary, Elizabeth and five others. Mary, d. of the younger Robert, m. a 1676, Moses Johnson of Stratford; and Hannah m. Isaac Stiles jr. ROGER, Boston, 1663, a mariner, and serv. of William Hudson, m. at Watertown a,. 1661, Abigail, d. of Christopher Grant, and prob. at W. spent most of his days, liv. there 1693. THOMAS, Scituate, bef. 1660, had John, Gideon, both bef. ment. Thomas, and perhaps others; m. sec. w 1666, Alice, wid. of Jonas Pickels, d. of Elder William Hatch, and had Jeremiah. THOMAS, New London, m. bef. 1683, Hannah, d. of Robert Allyn, was one of the grantees of Preston, 1686. THOMAS, Marblehead 1673, may be the same as the preced, or quite as likely of Billerica 1679, unless this be wrongly writ. for Ross. THOMAS, Scituate, s. of Thomas the first, had Gideon, b. 1702; and prob. others. At Block isl. in 1678, some Rose, with a wild spell. termed Rose, in ano. place, Tormot Roosse, was a townsman, as in the diligent extr. of Geneal. Reg. XIII. 37. In the Index his name bee.

DANIEL, and EZRA, Ipswich 1648, of wh. no more is kn. but m. of a Daniel with Mary Knight, youngest d. of Philip of Topsfield, 5 June 1677, is rec. at Salem. GEORGE, New Haven, m. 1658, Constance Little, perhaps d. of Richard, was freem. 1668. Sometimes his name is Roose, sometimes Rawse. JAMES, Sudbury, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 25 Dec. 1656. He, or the succeed, may have been that soldier, whose w. Mary, in the spring, of 1676, says her h. went to Narraganset, under Capt.

Sewall relates in his Diary, that his min. the famous Ebenezer Pemberton, wh. we may suspect that the parishioner had favored with a perusal, said to him, that "if he were Gov. he would humble Cotton Mather, tho. it cost him his head." In our whole Provinc. hist. nothing is more curious than the outery a. trad. with the enemy at this time, and the results, partly cruel, partly ridiculous. ROWDEN, JOHN, Salem 1652-68, m. aft.

He d. 16 Dec. 1694; and his wid. d. 17 Dec. 1700, but one tradit. is that she m. a Paine. Perhaps he lib. at Muddy riv. and so the Roxbury rec. was neglect.

Great care was need. among the earlier Johns; but of the last two, I kn. not wh. was the freem. of 1690. Four, five or six different ones are call. junrs. and sometimes both deaths and marriages are inadeq. guides; for I greatly fear that both Hannah and Martha, was. of one or the other John, as also part of their childr. respective, are here interchangeab. confus. NATHANIEL, Boston, a mariner, whose f. I cannot trace, unless he were s. of Samuel the first of Roxbury, n his will of wh. I discov. not the date, but it was pro. 15 Dec. 1702, aft. commit. his "soul into the hands of my Creator and Redeemer the Ld.

Hinman calls him a rep. 1646-8, but tho. he says nothing else of him, p. 70, I suppose that is wrong. In neither of those yrs. does Trumbulls Col. Rec. so honor him, indeed he was not made freem. bef. 1655, nor was he ever so chose. If my conjecture would benefit the eye of a reader of those rec. he might see the name that mislet H. to be John Bissel, sometimes Byssel, wh. was more than half the time that R. lib. in Conn. one of the reps.

It is one of the happiest of the eccentric writer's productions; and highly piquant would have been the reply of the judge to his ghostly adviser, had he liv. to offer one. The will, made two days bef. pro. two days aft. his d. in wh. nothing is giv. to his w. and L5 to Cotton Mather, confirms this conject. He d. at B. 29 July 1710, and Hutch.

But many yrs. he was head of the Essex militia. He m. 28 Dec. 1663, Elizabeth d. of Rev. John Ward, had Gurdon, b. 27 Mar. 1666, H. C. 1684, the disting. min. of New London, and Gov. of Conn.

Of his hon. descend. large acco. may be read in 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. V. 154, and 3 M. H. C. IX. 119, but more in Bond's copious Hist. of Watertown. PETER, by the hist. of the Ancient and Hon. Art. Co. made one of the corps 1644, is prob. name without right giv. by Whitman, as if he were s. of Sir Richard, for no such person is ever heard of elsewhere, and Bond rejects it as any of our N.

Earnest. he befriend. onr country in Eng. by thought, word, and deed; and was active, with the Lords Brooke, Say and Seal and other puritans in the first settlem. of Conn. By his first w. Grace, d. of Robert Kaye, Esq. of Yorksh. he had four s. Richard, b. 1610; Robert; Samuel; and Henry; two ds. Rosamond, perhaps the eldest ch. and Grace. By uncert. tradit. he is giv. two other ws. one said to be d. of the Earl of Delaware, for wh. in Collins's Peerage no support can be seen, and the other, less improb. Martha Wilford; but no ch. is ascrib. to either. He was, with s. Henry, in Holland 1644, perhaps min. to the States, and there was paint. the likeness of wh. engrav. is seen in the sec. vol. of Mass. Hist. Soc. Proceed. His will was made 1658, at the age of 72. RICHARD, Ipswich, s. of the preced. by his f. brot. 1630, hav. left the Univ. of Cambridge, where he was entr. at Emanuel Coll. as a fellow commoner, 18 Apr. 1627, from Yorksh. and matricula. 14 Dec. foll. adm. freem. of Mass. 18 Oct. 1631, and next mo. went home, by circuitous voyage of six wks. to Virg. and m. in Eng. a. 1633, Meriel, d. of Brampton Gurdon of Assington, Co.

John Cotton in note to Hutch. I. 94. For many yrs. he was not chos. Assist. but in 1664 in hope of his com. again, the honor was renew. and it was erron. assert. that he had been aft. in the country, bec. in 1672 he gave L50. to relief of Goffe and Whalley, the regicides. In 1680, however, he once more in Mass. and in May organizat. made an Assist. tak. the o. in Aug. wh. was renew. in 1681 and 2, but in this latter yr. he went home again, as the hope of preserv. liberty under the old chart. evapora. and d. 20 or 29 Apr. 1694, at Hulme, in Lancashire, at the ho. of Sir Edward Morley, wh. m. his eldest d.

Hercules Horsey, Esq. Instruct. may be got as to the just value of tradit. from a note in Hutch. II. 122, in wh. is read the story of a letter from Mrs. Harley to her sis. in N. E. that was many yrs. preserv. aft. the d. of that disting. statesman, for this passage in it; "I am now going to carry Bob. up to the inns of ct. to make a man of him," and Hutch. wh. seldom falls into such an error, makes the mo. "gr.d. of Sir Richard S." and this H. introduc. by refer. to "a tradit. that Harley had some N. E. blood in him, his mo. being a gr.d. of Sir Richard S." Now beside that this gr.d. of Sir Richard S. had no sis. here to write unto, the tale is false in the most vital pt. as usual, for she, being w. of his uncle, not of his f. could transmit no blood to he Lord High Treasurer. ROBERT, Watertown, br. of the preced. ar. co. 1638, was prob. at Windsor 1640-2, engag. for his f. or elder br. but allow. Francis Stiles to lead him into gr. useless expense, from wh. both suffer. inconven. to their dying day. He d. 1650, unm.; in his will of 13 June, pro. 15 Aug. nam. only relat. his f. brs.

SAMUEL, Watertown, br. of the preced. of wh. we would, glad. kn. more than Farmer told, of his d. 21 Jan. 1696. Even in the gr. Hist. of W. Bond could add only that admin. was tak. in Oct. foll. by his neph. Nathaniel, saying that he had no active participat. in munici. concerns, nor is w. or ch. found in the rec. But in that vol. p. 918, amends are made by one of the finest letters of that age from his sis. Rosamond, 22 Apr. 1644. She was then resid. in conseq. of the loss of his prop. by her f. in the family of the puritan Earl of Warwick, Ld. High Adm. and her sis. with the lady of the Earl of Manchester, one of the ch. command. in the civil war. Of descend. of Sir Richard, in the male line, thirteen had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and six at Yale. SAMFIELD, AUSTEN, Fairfield 1658, d. 1661, leav. small prop. to wid. and no ch. heard of.

HENRY, Plymouth 1620, came in the Mayflower, of the fam. of his uncle, Edward Tilley, a youth too small to sign the immortal compact of Nov. at Cape Cod; but whether, or not, entit. in the div. of lds. he was certain. in the div. of cattle, 1627, enumerat. in the comp. of Elder Brewster, liv. on Duxbury side, m. 6 Feb. 1636, Ann Plummer, had Stephen, John, James, Caleb, Elizabeth Hannah, Mary, and, perhaps, Dorcas, but when Bradford wrote, 1650, only seven ch. and d. 24 Dec. 1684. Elizabeth m. Robert Sproat; Hannah m. Josiah Holmes; Mary m. John Summers; Dorcas m. Thomas Bonney; and one d. it is said, m. John Hammond, but he is not of my aquaint.

JAMES, Dartmouth 1686. JOHN, Boston, merch. rem. perhaps, to Beverly 1671, there m. a d. of Richard Haynes, and bef. the begin. of Ind. war, 1675, may have liv. at Scarborough. Ano. JOHN, at New London, m. aft. 1672, not long bef. 1676, the wid. mo. of John Stodder, or Stother, a youth of only 16, wh. possess. by a malice almost incredib. murder. with an axe, 6 June 1678, Zipporah, w. of Thomas Bolles, with two of her ch. Joseph, and Mary, and soon aft. murder. John Sampson, s. of his mo. aged betw. one and two yrs. as by his own confess. is seen in the rec. of his trial at Hartford. For the soundness of the maxim in common law, malitia supplet aetatem, I believe, no stronger prorf can be found since the creation, in the stories of juven. depravity. He acknowl. that he k. his br. with a hatchet "bec. he cried, and bec. he did not love the ch. nor his f." and was execut. 9 Oct. foll. RICHARD, by Farmer call. of Boston, the freem. of 1674, I dare not accept, but think, was rather appropr. by New Hampsh. ROBERT, Boston 1630, came in the same sh. with Gov. Winthrop wh. calls him cous. in a let. to his w. Apr. bef. depart. from Isle of Wight. His fam. was ancient. in the rank of knights, resid. at Sampson's Hall in the parish of Kersey, adj. Groton, where was patron as well as lord of the manor. He was s. of John, by Bridget Clopton, sis. of the sec. w. of our Gov. W. By Whitman he is count. a memb. of the ar. co. 1639; but it seems far more prob. (as we never hear of him aft.) that he was some yrs. gone home. ROGER, Ipswich 1654. STEPHEN, Duxbury, s. of Henry, had Benjamin; Cornelius; Hannah; Mary; Elizabeth; John, b. 17 Aug. 1688; Dorcas; and Abigail. SAMS, or SAMMES, CONSTANTINE, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Richard, [[11]] b. 7 Oct. 1678; Mary, 2 Dec. 1684; Mercy, 3 July 1687, d. soon; and Mercy, again, 12 Jan. 1689. JOHN, Roxbury 1640, went to Eng. and at Coggeshall, in Co. Essex, was success. in the pulpit of celebr. John Owen, D. D. says Calamy, from wh. he was eject. 1675; and the eccles. hist. tells, that he was educat. in N. E. Very strange it seems, that no more is kn. of him here, but that in R. he purch. lds. of Rev. Thomas Weld, of capt. John Johnson, and of Joseph Weld, a. 1640, to amount, in aggreg. of L134. and that in Sept. 1642, Gov. Thomas Dudley, on ex'con. for L51. got the whole, in pt. satisfact. thereof, by appraisem. at L42, 17, 8 1/2, so that little benefit of his acres was enjoy. by the poor scholar, wh. could not redeem his est. See Dudley's investit. in Reg. of Suff'k. Deeds, I. 37. RALPH, Dorchester, a tailor, rem. to Boston bef. 1659; and was liv. 1663. THOMAS, Salem, had gr. of ld. in 1638, as Felt. tells, and liv. at Marblehead 1648. Yet he may have been of Roxbury 1637, and one of the appraisers on inv. of Edward Blackley. SAMUEL, JOHN, Boston, wh. m. 24 Dec. 1652, wid. Lucy Wight, is call. mariner in 1656; and he d. 8 Dec. 1662, or his inv. was then made. SAMWAYS, SAMWAYES, SAMOIS, or SAMWIS, JOHN, Huntington, L.

But the name was not long in W. so that, by var. spell. Hinman, 71, made two out of him. SANBORN, ancient. SAMBORNE, BENJAMIN, Hampton, s. of the first John, by first w.

He next m. Meribah Tilton, a wid. and had Ebenezer, 10 Oct. 1723; and this w. d. 15 Dec. 1740; and he had third w. Abigail Dalton, perhaps wid. of the sec. Philemon, and d. of Edward Gove. JOHN, Hampton 1643, by tradit. said to have come from Co Derby, and more prob. to be s. of John by a d. of Rev. Stephen Bachiler, wh. left three s. John, William, and Stephen, to the care of their gr.f. by wh. they were brot. in the William and Francis, arr. at Boston from London, 5 June 1632.

JOSIAH, Hampton, s. of William of the same, m. 25 Aug. 1681, Hannah Moulton, had William, b. 2 Mar. 1682; Hannah, 1684; and Sarah, 1686. He m. 1690, Sarah, wid. of Jonathan Perkins, had Jabez, Mar. 1691; Keziah, 15 Mar. 1693; Rachel, 13 Mar. 1695; Jonathan, 27 Apr. 1697; Reuben, 10 Apr. 1699; Abner, 9 Sept. 1702; and Richard, 9 Aug. 1705. His w. or wid. d. 1 Sept. 1748, aged 85. MEPHIBOSHETH, Hampton, br. of the preced m.

But in the fam. geneal. when we read that he had sec. w. Sarah, it would be agreeable to discern what portion of these eleven ch. all liv. in 1721, were b. respective. by ea. as great unwillingness must be felt at inflict. the whole on either. RICHARD, Hampton, br. of the preced. m. 5 Dec. 1678, Ruth Moulton, had Mary, b. 30 Sept. 1679; John, 6 Nov. 1681; and Ruth; but by sec. w. m. 20 Dec. 1693, wid. Mary, of sec. Nathaniel Boulter, he had Shubael, b. next yr. STEPHEN, Hampton, br. perhaps youngest, of the first John, went home, it is said, with his gr.f. Bachiler, wh. had brot. him, of course, in his youth. STEPHEN, Hampton, s. of William of the same, m. 26 July 1693, Hannnah Philbrick, had Stephen, b. 1 May 1694; James, 20 June 1697; Ann, 10 Sept. 1699; Hannah, 23 June 1701; [[13]] Phebe, 20 June 1703 Abiathar, 26 Feb. 1704; Zadok, 1 June 1707; Amy, 10 Dec. 1710; Abigail, 15 June 1712; Mary, 17 July 1715; and Jonathan, 16 Mar. 1718; and d. 21 July 1750.

SANBROOKE, THOMAS, Boston, whose will of 16 May 1649, pro. 6 Feb. foll. is seen in Geneal. Reg. VII. 227, could not be other than a trans. trader here. SANDERBANT, JOHN, the freem. of 10 May 1643, is, I doubt not, blunder of Mr. Secr. for Sunderland, as shall in that place be explain. SANDON, or SANDERS, Salem 1639, on Marblehead side, had license to keep an inn, and in 1645 to sell wine; d. a. 1667. SANDS, or SANDES, JAMES, Block Isl. now call. New Shoreham, was b. it is said, 1622, at Reading, Co. Berks, came with w. Sarah, and, perhaps, was of Taunton 1658, but among first sett. at the Isl. bef. 1672; had Sarah, wh. m. prob. bef. 1673, Nathaniel Niles, and tradit. tells, that he had been as early as 1643, of Portsmouth, R. I. and freem. 1655. See Niles, in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VI. 192. In Hist. of New London, 293, Caulkins ment. at his d. Mercy m. 29 Apr. 1683, Joshua Raymond; and that she was incident. connect. with the famous pirate, Wiliam Kidd. Beside that Mercy he had John, James, Samuel, and ano. s. and d. 13 Mar. 1695. James and Samuel liv. at Cowneck, on L. I. JOHN, Charlestown, d. 28 June 1659; but as this surname is not seen in the rec. of ch. or of town resid. 1654, he may have been only trans. inhab. SANDY, or SANDIE, sometims SAND, JOHN, Boston, m. 7 July 1653, Ann Holmes, had Elizabeth b. 15 Oct. 1654; and Mary, 24 Oct. 1656. SANDYS, HENRY, Boston, merch. adm. of the ch. with w.

Deliverance, wh. d. young; but in Nov. foll. was with others dism. to form new ch. at Rowley; freem. 7 Oct. 1640, when the clk. call. him Sand; had Samuel, b. 1640; Deliverance, again, Aug. 1644; rem. back to B. and had John, 28 Aug. 1646, and d.

He went with Coddington, Hutchinson, and others, to purch. R. I. and liv. at Portsmouth, the N. end of the isl. is in the list of freem. there 1655, was constable, treasr. Secr. Assist. 1647, and chos. head of the Colo. as Presid. in May 1653. One or more of his ch. were tak. by the Ind. when they k. Mrs. Hutchinson, it is said; and the friend. visit from a distance of a hundred and thirty miles, shows the intimacy the poor wid. kept up with old acquaint. When he d. is not heard. JOHN, Boston, by w. Bridget had Ann, wh. d. 26 Aug. 1654, as prob. the f. had good time bef. and the wid. m. lieut. William Phillips of B. who gave security, 10 Mar. 1657, to four ch. of said John, for portions of his est. in conform. with his will. But wh. those ch. were, is not ascertain. JOHN, Portsmouth, R.

JOHN, Boston, the sch.master, wh. I rejoice to say, taught writ.; m. 19 Feb. 1657, Sarah, wid. of Robert Potter, was perhaps, the freem. of 11 Oct. 1670, and d. 10 Feb. 1677. His will, of 19 Jan. preced. pro. 24 Apr. foll. ment. no ch. but gives all est. to w.

I. and L10. to Stephen Coppock of L. I. The excors. were nam. w. Sarah and capt. Timothy Wheeler, but he renounc. the office. Wh. Coppock was, or how he or Turner were relat. to testator is unkn. but I hazard the conject. that he was br. of Turner's w. NATHANIEL, Hartford 1655, d. 1687, leav. good est. to wid. Susanna, wh. m.

At Scarborough, in 1663, may have been one of this name, unless erron. giv. in Geneal. Reg. V. 264, as may well be suspect. from the many mistakes in that list. ROBERT, Hartford, prob. youngest s. of Robert of the same, had a fam. but details have not reach. me. SAMUEL, Milford, s. of Thomas, propound. for freem. 1669, d. 1691, leav. wid. Hannah, and ch.

SANKEYS, ROBERT, Saco, came in the Increase from London, Apr. 1635, aged 30, sent by Robert Cordell, a goldsmith of Lombard street, says the rec. at custom-ho. appears as a witness with Cleves and Tucker, to the import. deed of 30 Mar. preced. from Richard Vines, agent of Sir Ferdinand Gorges, to Arthur Mackworth. Mr. Willis, in Hist. of Portland, I. 32, recit. the docum. makes it 1635, as "in the eleventh yr. of Charles," keeping in mind, that the tenth yr. of that reign end. 27 Mar. 1635, of course three days later was within the eleventh. Now this witness was then in London, and so, I suppose, tho. dated in 1635, the indent. was not actually deliver. for some months aft. Possib. eleventh may be error of the instrum. for twelth. But I leave the solution to the perspicacity of so good a judge. He was appoint. by Gorges, in 1640, Provost Marshal, and sat in the first Gen. Ct. of that Province, with other dignitaries, 25 June of that yr. Willis, I. 47. Of the doings of that Ct. I employ. an amnanuensis to take large extr.

Farmer thot. him the preach. at Malden 1648-50, of wh. slight ment. is seen in Jonson's W. W. Providences, Book III. cap. 7; yet as the min. is not nam. by Mather, he might be supos. to have gone home, but he was never ord. acting only as lay preach. This William had long puzzled me much, but my final infer. was that he rem. to Barnstable, where he succeed. famous John Lothrop in the pulpit, and where a will of one William, 9 Mar. 1680, names w. Sarah, s. John, and Samuel, ds. Ruth Bourne (wh. had been wid. of Jonathan Winslow of Marshfield, m. Richard B. of Sandwich, July 1677, and had third h. John Chipman of the same town), and Hannah Felch, beside gr.s. Samuel Bill, whose mo. Elizabeth had been wid. Nichols, when she m. 14 June 1653, Thomas Bill; but his d. Elizabeth must have been b. in Eng. and she d. 5 Mar. 1658. Abundant proof of all this is obtain. by the diligence of Aaron Sargent of the eighth generat. with success admira. exhibit. in the fam. geneal. print. 1858. Hannah m. Henry F. of Reading.

WILLIAM, Gloucester, call. sec. to disting. him from the other, was b. in Bristol, Eng. m. 21 June 1678, Mary, d. of Peter Duncan, had Fitz William, b. 6 Jan. 1680; and Mary, 19 Dec. 1681; Andrew, 1683; Daniel, 1686; Jordan, 1688; Epes, 1690, the ancest. of most of the disting. men of this name; Ann, 1692; Samuel, 1694, d. young; Fitz John, 1696, d. soon; one, with an [[20]] out of the way name, 1699, d. the same yr.; Jabez, 1700, d. the same yr.; Fitz William, 1701; and Winthrop, 1704; WILLIAM, Gloucester, s. of the first William of the same, m. 26 Oct. 1681, Naomi Stanwood, perhaps d. of Philip, wh. d. 13 Mar. 1702, and he m. 14 Sept. 1703, Hannah Short, perhaps d. of the sec. Henry; and by the two ws. he had eleven ch. but Babson ment. no names, and thinks he rem. bef. 1721. Glad. would I learn, wh. was f. of that Nathaniel, gr. at Harv. 1707, by the catal. mark. as d. 1762, for to him Stephen Glover of G. gave all his prop. requir. that he should be "bred up to learn." Of this name eighteen had been, in 1843, gr. at Harv. nine at Dart. and two at Yale. SATCHELL, SATCHWELL, or SETCHELL. See Shatswell. SATTERLY, or SHATTERLY, BENEDICT, New London, there liv. but few yrs. d. a. 1689; leav. perhaps, a s. and two ds. Sarah, wh. m. Joseph Wickham of Killingworth; and Rebecca, m. Joseph Swasey of L. I. NICHOLAS, Westerly 1680. SAULE, THOMAS, New Haven, or some pt. of that Col. 1639. SAUNDERS, sometimes SANDERS, CHRISTOPHER, Windsor 1671, came short time bef. as seems prob. had Daniel, wh. d. 22 Dec. 1675, at 11 days old; Susanna, b. 20 Nov. 1676; Daniel, again 27 Oct. 1678; and Elizabeth 30 Apr. 1681; and it may be he was unsuccess. in trade, and rem. to Rehoboth, for one of this name was there 1690. DANIEL, Cambridge, d. 27 Feb. 1640, and no more is kn. of him. EDWARD, Portsmouth 1639, may be the man punish. at Watertown, 1654, for abuse of Ruth Parsons. See Col. Rec. III. 364. GEORGE, Windsor, br. of Christopher, propound. for freem. 1667, when he was ens. at Killingworth, m. bef. 1675, Mary, d. of George Saxton, had George, perhaps by former w. old eno. at least to be tax. with his f. 1675; and d. 16 Nov. 1690, leav. Mary, then 13 yrs. old, and Abiah, a. 6. GEORGE, Windsor, br. of Christopher, acc. Stiles, 770, rem. to Simsbury, m. 17 Dec. 1691, Abigail, perhaps d. of Nathaniel Bissell, wh. Stiles prints Russell, had, he says, Hannah, b. 23 May previous, and he d. 5 Dec. 1697. Very much confusion a. this name exists, and it may not be wholly dissipat. by reducing two Georges to one. JAMES, Haverhill, took the o. of alleg. 1677. JOHN, Weymouth 1622, sent by Weston as gov. or overseer of his planta. gave up next yr. the undertak. and prob, went home. JOHN, prob. at Ipswich 1635, freem. 25 May 1636, was permit. with Samuel Dudley and others, to found Colchester, soon call. Salisbury, perhaps was f. of that Sarah, wh. m. 3 Apr. 1641, Robert Pike of S. Yet possib. JOHN of Newbury sev. yrs. later, might be thot. her f. and even it might seem that these two were only one man. But he of S. had w.

To prevent confus. of the two Johns, we may further note, that one of the name came in the Confidence of London, aged 25, husbandman of Longford, also in Co. Wilts, with w. Sarah, emb. at Southampton 24 Apr. 1638; and if we accept him as the John to wh. (with w. Sarah) Coffin gives ch. Sarah, b. 20 Aug. 1647; Mary, 12 June 1649; Abigail, 12 Apr. 1651, Joseph, 1653, d. soon; and Elizabeth 26 Jan. 1655; we may feel sure that Pike's w. was not his d. It may indeed seem that she might have been sis. of either of the two. JOHN, Salem 1637, mem. of the ch. had m. a d. of the firt Joseph Grafton, in his will of 28 Oct. 1642, pro. Dec. 1643, ment. s.

WILLIAM, Hampton, a carpenter, had been in this country 2 or 3 yrs. bef. he went to plant there, Sept. 1638, with Rev. Stephen Bachiler and others.

He had, also, eldest ch. by first w. perhaps b. in Eng. Lydia, wh. was m. (by Gov. Bellingham), 13 Dec. 1654, to Thomas Jones; but as no more is [[23]] told of either of the young couple, I conject. they went to Eng. He had sec. w. Elizabeth was deac. and d. 7 Oct. 1693, not 6, as Farmer gave it. By his will, of 18 July, pro. 20 Oct. his w. was made extrix. and in her will of 15 Sept. 1694, prob. 21 Nov. 1695, is evid. proof, that ch. and gr.ch. nam. in the will of her h. were not his, but hers. No blood relat. of his, exc. br. Edward, and s. Robert can with confid. be found in his own will. ROBERT, Cambridge, s. of the preced. by w. Elizabeth had Joseph, b. 10 Oct. 1684; and he took sec. w. in Boston, 21 Dec. 1693, Sarah Crow. WILLIAM, Watertown, perhaps s. of the first Robert, says Bond, but prob. was not, old eno. to sw.fidel. by w.

This name is sometimes abbrev. of its last syllab. and oft. is without u. SAVAGE, EBENEZER, Boston, s. of the first Thomas, was of ar. co. 1682, m. Martha, d. of capt. Bozoan Allen, had Mary, b. 15, bapt. 19 Aug. 1683, and he d. next yr. EDWARD, Dorchester, if it be truly giv. 1664, as sign. the petitn. to the Gen. Ct. in vindicat. of our liberties. See Hist. of D. 200. But I doubt the name is wrong, and the writer in Geneal. Reg. V. 395, giv. the same list, in wh. this is Nov. 40, when he aft. publ. acco. of all the subscrib. to that docum. on p. 465, omits him. Of such a man in other connex. nothing is kn. and the same Hist. 38, gather. 134 first sett. of the town, includes but one Edward, and his surname was Raymond.

Male descent fail. here, but his s. both diffus. the blood; Hannah, by m. with Rev. Nathaniel Gookin of Cambridge, and Mary, by m. with Rev. Thomas Weld of Dunstable.

JOHN, Middletown, eldest s. of John of the same, m. 30 May 1682, Mary Ranney, d. of Thomas of the same, had John, b. 20 Feb. 1683, d. in few days; Thomas, 21 Aug. 1684; John, again, 30 Jan. 1686, d. in few mos.; John, again, 7 Aug. 1688; Mary, 11 Feb. 1691; William, late in July 1693; Elizabeth 1696; Abigail, Dec. 1698, d. at 3 mos.; Sarah, late in Sept. 1700; Rachel, 15 Jan. 1704; and Mercy, or this may be Mary, again, 10 Apr. 1706; as a capt and d. 31 Oct. 1726.

THOMAS, Boston, merch. s. of William of Taunton, Co. Somerset, blacksmith, where the name prevails in the parish reg. for the whole reign of Elizabeth had been apprent. at Merchant Tailors, London, as the comp. rec. prove, in the 18th yr. of James, 9 Jan. 1621, came in the Planter from London, Apr. 1635, aged 27, was adm. of the ch.

His will, of 28 June 1675, the day of march. to Philip's war, was so well arrang. that in the resid. of his life no change was suggest. and it was pro. 9 Mar. 1682. The sermon on his d. by Williard, of O. S. ch. was print. and a copy was held by John Farmer of Concord, until he prefer. with his usual liberality, to bestow it on me. His wid. m.

Of that brief and blasted campaign, suffic. acco. may be read in a letter from him to his br. Perez in London, that was by his majesty's officer licens. and print. Apr. 1691. See 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 256. He d. 2 July 1705, and his wid. d. 29 Aug. 1715. WILLIAM, Middletown, s. of the first John, by w. Christian, m. 6 May 1696, had Sarah, and d. 25 Jan. 1727. Of this name, thirteen, all descend. of the first Thomas, had been gr. at Harv. in 1854, and four at Yale. SAVIL, SAVEL, SAVILS, or SAVALLS, BENJAMIN, Braintree, s. of William the first, had w. Lydia, and was liv. 13 Dec. 1700, nam. in the will of his br. Samuel. EDWARD, Weymonth, had Obadiah, b. 20 July 1640. JOHN, Braintree, s. of William the first, may have been at Woburn, when freem. 1684. His will, of 8 Nov. 1687, pro. 2 Feb. 1691, names w. Mehitable, s. John, and Mehitable. SAMUEL, Woburn, perhaps br. of the preced. freem. 1684, yet it may be prob. that neither was of W. but of Braintree. He m. 10 Apr. 1672, Hannah, eldest d. of the first Joseph Adams, had Hannah, b. 13 July 1674; Abigail, 14 Feb. 1678; William and Deborah, tw. 19 Feb. 1680, both prob. d. early; Bethia, 17 Oct. 1681; beside eldest s.

Hannah, 11 Mar. 1648; and Sarah, 1 Oct. 1654, but the last of ea. sex was by sec. w. m. 9 Aug. 1655, Sarah Gamitt, as the rec. has it, wh. by Mr. Vinton, 311, is read Jarmill, and in neither form is accessib. to any search of mine, yet in his will of 18 Feb. 1669 made extrix. Vexat. from contradict. rec. is frequent in these inquir. ad much refinem. will be need. to reconcile that m. as print, in Geneal. [[28]] Reg. XII. 347, with the bs. in same Vol. 110 and XI. 334, "evident. the sec. w.'s childr." says Vinton, 298. His wid. m. 5 Sept. 1670, Thomas Faxon, and d. 1697. WILIAM, Braintree, s. of the preced. m. 1 Jan. 1680, Deborah, d. of Thomas Faxon the sec. and had sec. w. Experience, youngest d. of the sec. Edmund Quincy, and d. early in 1700. He serv. in brave capt. Johnson's comp. Dec. 1675, but Geneal. Reg. VIII. 242, makes him Stable. Only from his will of 31 Jan. pro. 7 Mar. foll. in wh. w. is made extrix. until his eldest s. William should be of age, do we learn names of other ch. Joseph, Benjamin, Deborah, and Judith; by wh. w. or when b. respective. is unkn. Yet I venture to conject. that the last nam. alone was by the Quincy w. wh. outliv. him six or seven yrs. His brs. Samuel and Benjamin also are ment. in that instrum. SAVORY, SAVORIE, or SAVARY, ANTHONY, Dartmouth 1686, then a townsman, may not be the one by Farmer said to come, 1640, from Slade, in Devonshire, with Thomas S. Yet no such place was found by me. But if Thomas be he so unfavo. ment. in our Col. Rec. I. 248, sub an. 1638 refer. to the Ct. at Ipswich for one offence, and Ib. 297, sentenc. to be whip. for ano. 1640, and sold as a slave, our ign. may not be lament.

SAMUEL, Plymouth, perhaps s. of Thomas of the same, was aft. at Rochester, there had Mary, b. 3 Jan. 1678; Judah, 10 Jan. 1680; Susanna, 19 May 1690; and Samuel, 16 Nov. 1695; perhaps more ch. THOMAS, Plymouth, was in that serv. under Howland at Kennebeck, in Apr. 1634, when one of his compan. was k. by Hocking, wh. was forthwith k. by the Plymouth men. See the evid. in Geneal. Reg. IX. 80, and full relations by the Govs. Bradford of Plymouth and Winthrop of Mass. He was, I suppose, of Plymouth in 1643, had Moses, b. 22 Jan. 1650, d. soon; Samuel, 4 June 1651; Jonathan, or Thomas, 4 Mar. 1653, Mary, 7 Apr. 1654; and, perhaps, others. Either he or his s. Thomas is rememb. in the will of Timothy Hatherley, Sept. 1664. THOMAS, a passeng. in the Mary and John from London, with William, perhaps his br. perhaps f. or hav. tak. o. of suprema. and alleg. 24 Mar. 1634, may have sat down first at Ipswich, but on our side of the sea was of narrower, perhaps, or wider faith than his fellows, and so driv. to Newport 1639, perhaps next to Sandwich, unless the Plymouth man had right to that place. THOMAS, Scituate, s. perhaps of Thomas of Plymouth, was in the employm. of Hatherley, and a doz. yrs. aft. d. of H. was k. by the Ind. 26 Mar. 1676, as one of the comp. of capt. Peirce. He was unm. Of WILLIAM, that fellow-passeng. with Thomas [[29]] from London, 1634, in the Mary and John, it is equal. hard to follow any footstep. SAWDY, JOHN, Boston, cordwainer, by w.

Abigail, d. of George Munning, had John, whose b. is not told; Munning 4 Apr. 1655; and Thomas, 27 Sept. 1657. He m. sec. w. 16 Feb. 1667, Judith, youngest ch. of Anthony Pierce, as Bond tells, 423; but my suspic. is very strong, that the m. was with John, the s. for she was under 17 yrs. at that time, and p. 932, he gives countenance to that conject. for he makes John jr. have w. of that name. He was selectman 1664 and 72, and d. 2 Sept. 1690. MUNNING, Watertown, s. of the preced. m. 15 or 18 Dec. 1681, Sarah, eldest d. of deac.

SAWKYN, WILLIAM, came July 1635, a passeng. aged 25, in the Defence from London; but no more is told of him.

Ann had Ann, b. 1 Aug. 1687; Daniel, 28 Jan. 1689; and Enoch, 22 [[31]] June 1694. THOMAS, Lancaster 1647, one of the first six sett. had been, I think, of Rowley 1643, freem. 1654, by w. Mary, d. of John Prescott, had Thomas, b. July 1649; Ephraim, 2 Jan. 1651, wh. was k. by the Ind. 10 Feb. 1676; Mary, 7 Jan. 1653; Elizabeth 7 Jan. 1654; Joshua, Mar. 1655; James, Mar. 1657; Caleb, Apr. 1659; John, Apr. 1661; and Nathaniel, Nov. 1670. Descend. are very num. tho. of the sec. generat. we are quite ign. WILLIAM, Salem 1643, Wenham 1645, rem. to Newbury, by w.

Perhaps he had sec. w. Sarah, wid. of John Wells of Wells, parents of Rev. Thomas. His d. Mary m. 13 June 1683, John Emery third of N. SAMUEL, Newbury, s. of the preced. m. 10 Mar. 1671, Mary, d. of John Emery the sec. had Mary, b. 20 Jan. 1672; Samuel, 5 June 1674; John, 15 Mar. 1676; Ruth, 20 Sept. 1677; Hannah, 12 Jan. 1679; and Josiah, 20 Jan. 1681. WILLIAM, Ipswich, s. of the first William, rem. to Wells, by w. Sarah had Joseph, b. 14 Aug. 1678; Francis, 6 Mar. 1681; Daniel, 26 May 1683; Hannah, 9 Apr. 1685; and Ruth, 26 May 1687; and he d. 7 June 1718. His wid. d. Jan. 1734, aged 84. Oft. this name seems Sawer, and Sayer. Ten are among gr. at Harv. ten at Dart. and one at Yale. SAXTON, or SEXTON, DANIEL, Westfield, perhaps s. of George, m. 28 Dec. 1680, Sarah, d. of John Bancroft, had Nathaniel, b. 22 Dec. foll. d. in 3 days; and Sarah, 6 Mar. 1683. GEORGE, Windsor, had John, b. there 26 May 1673, went back to Westfield, where he had liv. bef. and had Benjamin, a. 1667, said to be the first white b. in that place, wh. also liv. to old age, but Joseph bef. him, and prob. George earlier still, bef. W. was plant. and in 1688 sold to Joseph and Benjamin his est. there for L160., his w. Catharine join. in the deed, and he d. a. 1690. GEORGE, Westfield, s. prob. eldest of the preced. had, by w. that d. 19 Sept. 1689, Charles, b. 9 Sept. 1680; and Nathaniel, 5 Dec. 1682; and rem. to Newtown, L. I. GILES, Boston or Charlestown, prob. arr. in the fleet with Winthrop for on 18 Sept. 1630, he was a witness bef. the coroner as to d. of William Bateman in the harb. near Pullen point, and on 28 of same serv. on inq. at Charlestown on the case of Austin Bratcher, k. by Walter Palmer; req. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. foll. when the title Mr. is bef. his name, and was sw. 18 May next without that prefix. My conject. is that he soon went home, and that Deane was wrong in suppos. him the min. to wh. the Magnalia, III. 214, could not give Christian name, or tell time of com. or go. Better informa. is now enjoy. JAMES, Westfield, perhaps s. of George the first, or of Richard, by w. Hannah had John, b. 28 Jan. 1681; Hannah, 29 Oct. 1683; Phebe, 7 Jan. 1687; Elizabeth 5 Feb. 1689, wh. d. at 3 mos.; Mary, or [[32]] Mercy, 26 Dec. 1695; and James, 9 Nov. 1712; and d. 12 Dec. 1741. His. w. was d. of the first Ambrose Fowler. JOHN, Windsor, eldest s. of Richard, m. 30 July 1677, Mary Hill, d. of Luke, had Mary, b. 4 May foll. rem. to Simsbury, and had Richard and John. JOSEPH, Stonington, m. Hannah, d. of capt. George Denison of the same, had Jerusha, and Mercy; but of him I hear no more, exc. that he was a capt. JOSEPH, Westfield, s. of George the first, m. 1690, Hannah, d. of the first Abel Wright of the same, had Gershom; Hannah, b. 1692; Joseph, 1694; Mindwell, 1696; Daniel, 1700, and Ezekiel, 1704; rem. to Enfield, and had Charles, 1708; and d. 1742, says Dr. Pease in the careful contribut. to Hinman, aged 76. PETER, Scituate 1640, aft. rem. of Lothrop, was from Yorksh. bred at Trinity Coll. Cambridge, where he proceed. A. M. 1603, adm. by Archbp. Hutton bef. 1606 to holy orders, liv. but few mos. in our country, and was not ord. yet may well be thot. one of the four min. that went home with dep.-gov. Humfrey, Dec. 1641, whose pious exclama. in the storm is so well told by Mather. Considera. offer was tender. him of good liv. in Kent; but, prefer. his native shire, he gain. the valua. vicarage of Leeds, to wh. the triumph of his party sent him in Apr. 1646, and there he d. 1 Oct. 1651. When here, his d. Silence m. capt. Samuel Pool. See Brook's Lives of the Puritans, III. 139. RICHARD, Windsor 1643, not early eno. to have been at Dorchester, yet said to have come in the ship Blessing, but the more important fact would have been a date, m. 16 Apr. 1646, Sarah Cook, perhaps sis. of Nathaniel, had Sarah, b. 23 Mar. 1648; John, 4 Mar. 1650; Mary, 27 Feb. 1652; Richard, 1 Mar. 1655, wh. fell in the gr. battle of Narraganset, 19 Dec. 1675; Patience, 28 June 1658, or Jan. 1659; Francis, 11 or 17 Jan. 1662, d. at 4 yrs. He d. 3 May 1662, and his wid. d. 13 June 1674; but in Stiles's Hist. 770, the ds. of h. and w. are exchang. in date. Sarah had bef. the latest date, perhaps Oct. 1668, Robert Roath of Norwich; and Mary m. George Saunders. THOMAS, Boston, miller, by w. Lucy had Mary, b. 2 Jan. 1645; and John, 29 June 1647. He m. 10 Mar. 1652; as sec. w. Ann, wid. of Herman Atwood. of William Copp, had Samuel, 8 Oct. 1653, whose gr.st. tells his d. 21 July 1693; Joseph, 9 May 1656; Nathaniel, 29 Nov. 1658, wh. d. at 19 yrs.; and Elizabeth 8 June 1661; and his w. d. 2 wks. aft. By a third w. Mary, he had Benjamin, 18 May 1664; and Mary, 9 Jan. 1666; and he d. 31 July 1686. SAYER, SAYERS, or SAYRE, DANIEL, JOB, and FRANCIS, at Southampton, L. I. 1673, had, perhaps, rem. from Lynn, at least one Job was there 1635, and the others may have been his brs. or s. ICHABOD, New London, s. of Francis, m. 1697, Mary, d. of Hugh Hubbard, and this was the first m. says Miss Caulkins, solemniz. by Gov. Saltonstall. [[33]] JAMES, from Northbourne, Co. Kent, came, 1635, in the Hercules from Sandwich, but we kn. not where he sat down. JAMES, Gloucester, by w. Sarah had Nathaniel, b. 29 Dec. 1677; and Abraham, 5 Nov. 1680. JOHN, Falmouth, sold 1655, to Isaac Walker of Boston, that isl. call. Long Isl. in Casco Bay. THOMAS, Lynn 1635, one of the purch. 1640, of Southampton, L. I. may be the freem. of 22. May 1639, giv. on rec. Say or Says; and also may be f. of one or more of the first nam. sett. at S. Conject. is unsatisfact. when Shurtleff and Paige differ in spell. of the names, and confid. is still less indulg. as to the surname of two syl. when ano. THOMMAS is found in the will of Stephen Lincoln, at Hingham, 1658. See Geneal. Reg. IX. 38. SAYLE, or SAYLES, JOHN, Providence 1645, in list of freem. 1655, next yr. town clk. by w. Mary had Mary, b. July 1652; and John, 17 Aug. 1654; and prob. others; in May 1666, sw. alleg. to Charles II. JOHN, Providence, s. prob. of the preced. took the o. of alleg. May 1682, m. Elizabeth Comstock, perhaps d. of the first Daniel, had Mary, b. 30 May 1689; John, 10 Jan. 1692; Richard, 24 Oct. 1695; Daniel, 13 Dec. 1697; and Thomas, 9 Feb. 1699; and d. 2 Nov. foll. WILLIAM, Boston, a trans. visit. in 1646, wh. had been Gov. at Bermuda, was so happy as to attend Cotton's lecture on Thursday, 5 Nov. in that yr. and soon aft. sail. for London. Out of incid. in that Thursday lecture advert. to, sprang two tracts of antagonist spirit, "N. E.'s Jonas cast up at Lonon," by Dr. Child, and "N. E.'s Salamander," by Edward Winslow, and this latter appeal. to Gov. Seyle as witness against the story told by c. Five yrs. later he was sent by the Eng. governm. to plant at Eleutheria, one of the Bahamas, as is told by Winthrop II. 334, and I presume the same gent. was, in 1670, Gov. in Carolina, under royal commiss. of 26 July 1669, where prob. he d. 1671. SAYWARD, or SAYWORD, EDMUND, Ipswich 1635. HENRY, Hampton 1646, Portsmouth 1650, soon aft. at York, there was constable 1664, perhaps had s. John, and Samuel, wh. there took o. of alleg. 1681, and long perpet. the name. He d. 1679, and his wid. Mary had admin. RICHARD, New Hampsh. 1662. SAYWELL, DAVID, Boston, perhaps s. of Robert, m. 15 Aug. 1660, Abigail, d. of Thomas Buttolph; was freem. 1666, and d. 1672. His wid. m. next yr. Thomas Bingley. ROBERT, Boston, came in the Blessing, 1635, aged 30, with Susan, prob. his w. 25, and James, prob. their s. 1 and 1/2 yrs. had Elizabeth wh. m. 7 May 1662, Joseph Davis. SCADDING, WILLIAM, Taunton 1638. Baylies, I. 289. SCADLOCK, WILLIAM, Saco 1636, freem. 1653, of gr. jury 1654, and 1660, had William, Susanna, John, Rebecca, Samuel, and Sarah. He d. 1662, in his will of 7 Jan. nam. w. Elinor, and these six ch. Samuel [[34]] was liv. 1719, aged 73; but John d. 1664; and William d. four yrs. aft. his f. hav. lost a s. William, it is said of lawful age, the yr. preced. but this seems rather strange. The name is Chaddock, in Folsom, wh. perhaps, foll. Sullivan in Hist. 218 and 19. SCALES, JOHN, Rowley 1648. MATTHEW, k. by the Ind. at Hatfield, 25 Aug. 1675, may not have been an inhab. but a soldier from the E. WILLIAM, Rowley, freem. 13 May 1640. SCAMMON, SCAMMAN, or SCAMMOND, HUMPHRE, Kittery, or Saco, perhaps both, m. Elizabeth d. of the first Dominicus Jordan, had Humphrey, b. 10 May 1677; Elizabeth; Mary; Rebecca; and Samuel. JOHN, Kittery, perhaps s. of William, certain. br. of Humphrey and of Richard, as also of Elizabeth w. of Peter Lidgett, had Elizabeth but wh. was his w. the diligence of Quint has not discov. RICHARD, Dover, br. of the preced. perhaps s. of William, m. Prudence, only d. of William Waldron, had Richard; William, b. 29 Feb. 1664; Jane, 21 June or July 1667; Prudence, 29 Aug. 1669; Elizabeth 22 Apr. 1671; and Mary, 31 May 1673. He escap. the Ind. war by liv. at Exeter 1677; and both h. and w. were there 21 Apr. 1691. Jane m. Thomas Deane of Boston, and d. 9 Oct. 1726. WILLIAM, Boston 1640, prob. rem. soon, may have been ancest. of the disting. fam. but nothing can be ascertain. SCAMP, ROBERT, Gloucester, m. 25 Dec. 1661, Joan, d. of John Collins, had Mary, b. 25 Nov. foll. and his w. d. next 9 Nov. and he d. 23 Apr. 1691. I suggest, that possib. this name may have been Stamp, for in old rec. t and c are much alike. SCANT, WILLIAM, Braintree, m. 29 Mar. 1654, Sarah Brown, had William, b. 16 Mar. foll.; Thomas, 11 Apr. 1657; Sarah, 5 Sept. 1660; Joseph, 4 June 1662, d. at 2 yrs.; Susanna, 30 Jan. 1664; and ano. d. 27 May 1665, with a strange or undecypher. name; and he d. Sept. 1684. His will, of 8 Aug. pro. 30 Oct. names w. and refers to ch. without nam. them. SCARBOROUGH, or SCARBARROW, JOHN, Roxbury 1639, freem. 13 May 1640, unless the Col. rec. of Shurtleff, I. 377, justify an earlier date of four days, wh. must seem very improb. for the regular day of open. Gen. Ct. was 13, and, of course, the 9th was Saturday; by w. Mary, prob. sis. of Robert Smith of Boston, had John, b. 10, bapt. 24 July 1642, d. next mo.; Hannah, 3 Dec. 1643, bapt. same day; Samuel, 20 Jan. bapt. 1 Feb. 1646; and was k. 9 June foll. by casualty in charg. a gr. gun. His wid. m. 1 Oct. 1647, Philip Torrey. SAMUEL, Roxbury, s. of the preced. by first w. wh. d. 1679, had prob. no ch. but by w. Bethia had. prob. Samuel, b. 1681, wh. d. of smallpox, 2 Nov. 1721; Joseph, Feb. 1688, Jeremiah, 31 July 1685, wh. d. in few wks.; Deborah, 16 July 1687, wh. d. at six yrs.; and he d. 18 Mar. 1715. His w. d. 10 Sept. 1728, aged 75. [[35]] SCARLET, BENJAMIN, Salem 1633, s. prob. of Mary, wh. bound him apprent. that yr. aged only 11 yrs. to capt. Endicott, and he contin. the Gov's man 1651, and was liv. 1678. A wid. Scarlet, early memb. of Salem ch. in her will of 2 Mar. 1640, pro. June 1643, nam. Joseph Grafton excor. calls him br. as also James Lind, and br. Browning, and his w. and sis. Dennis. All these, I think, refer to Christian soc. but she ment. her own ch. Mary, Margaret, and Joseph; and when she nam. br. Samuel in Eng. she means, I suppose, kinsm. and may have been f. of this apprent. Yet, as to the fam. of the testator, I see no more light. JOHN, Sringfield 1640, was then constable, rem. to Boston 1650, by w. Thomasine had Mary and Jane, tw. b. 21 Sept. 1653; perhaps John, 1657, wh. d. young; Thomasine, 18 May 1660; John and Samuel, tw. 16 Apr. 1664; and Elizabeth 18 Nov. 1667; and by Farmer, in MS.geneal. was, I think, mistak. for his br. Samuel. His will, of 16 Feb. 1688, pro. 21 Mar. foll. gives to his w. to d. Thomasine Taylor, and to gr.s. James Fryer; so that my conject. is, that ano. of his ds. had m. James, only s. of Hon. Nathaniel F. ROBERT, Salem 1635, perhaps br. of Benjamin, was that yr. sentenc. to be whip. for run. from his master. SAMUEL, Boston 1664, br. of John, master of a sh. from London to B. with his w. join. Mather's ch. 1672, was freem. and constable 1673, and was mort. inj. by explos. of a sh. in the harbor, 4 May 1675, dy. in a few hours. He was b. in Kersey, Co. Suffk. he says in his will, made that day, pro. 26 May foll. by wh. he dispos. of good amt. of prop. but left no ch. SCATE, JOHN, Boston, by w. Sarah had John, b. 14 Apr. 1659. SCATHE, JOHN, Hingham, with Ann, perhaps a sis. are ment. in the wills of John Merrick and of his wid. Elizabeth 1647 and 9. prob. they were serv. but he was in Boston, prob. 1674, a cordwainer, and in 1678 sold lds. at H. to William Hersey, writ. his name John Skeath. SCHRICK, PAULUS, Hartford, one of the little colo. of Dutch from New York, that had plant. bef. the Eng. went thither. He m. 30 Dec. 1658, Mary, wid. of Josephus Ambeck, d. of Caspar Varleet; but no issue is ment. SCILIAN, BENJAMIN, and JOSEPH, unless surname be mistak. as I suspect, were of Ipswich 1683. SCOFIELD, SCOVIL, SCOVEL, SCHOFEL, or SKOFIELD, ARTHUR, Middletown, a propr. 1671, by w. Rachel m. 17 Dec. 1690, at Lyme, had Arthur, b. 13 Jan. 1692; and James, 9 Jan. 1694, wh. d. in few wks. and the f. d. 24 June foll. ARTHUR, Middletown, s. of the preced. by w. Elizabeth m. Feb. 1711, had James, b. 18 Jan. 1712; and Elizabeth 26 July 1715. BENJAMIN, Haddam, perhaps s. of John, by w. Ann had Edward, b. 9 Apr. 1704; Sarah, 9 Oct. 1706; and Amie, 14 Mar. 1709. [[36]] DANIEL, Stamford 1641, one of the first sett. d. 1671, leav. ch. Daniel, John, Richard, Joseph, Sarah, w. of John Pettit; and Mary or Mercy. His wid. Sarah bec. third w. of Miles Merwin, and is nam. in his will. His two eldest s. liv. many yrs. at Stamford, and left num. progeny; but their br. Joseph d. 1676, in serv. or by the hardships of Philip's war, leav. no fam. yet some est. to brs. and sis. EDWARD, Haddam, m. Hannah, d. prob. youngest, of Andrew Benton of Hartford, d. 1703, leav. wid. and two ds. but I miss any early date. JOHN, Farmington, m. 29 Mar. 1666, Sarah Barnes, d. of Thomas, rem. to Waterbury, next to Haddam, there d. 1712, had John, William, and Benjamin. JOHN, Middletown, m. 9 Feb. 1698, Mary Lucas, d. prob. of William, had Joanna, John, Mary, Elizabeth William, and Ebenezer, and d. 12 Dec. 1712. RICHARD, Ipswich 1648, came in the Susan and Ellen, aged 22, from London, may have been of Stamford 1650, and d. 1671, and the same, whose wid. m. Robert Penoyer. He was prob. f. Richard, propound. for freem. 1670, a trader at S. 1689-1701; and, perhaps, other ch. Great vexation has attend. my desire to avoid confus. of families under such various spell. and it would not be easy for a congress of those with so hard a name, in our days, to make out the derivat. of the mem. SCOLLEY, or SCHOLLEY, JOHN, Malden 1674, then 33 yrs. old, had liv. at Charlestown, m. Hannah, d. of James Barrett, had John, b. 20 June 1665; Hannah, 3 Apr. 1669; James, Oct. 1671; Mary, Feb. 1675; and Sarah, wh. m. 16 Nov. 1699, Jonathan Eustis. SCOON, or SCONE, JOHN, Westfield, m. Sarah, d. of Edmund Hart, had William, b. 15 Nov. 1676; Sarah, 7 Mar. 1678; Elizabeth 14 June 1680; and Joseph, 16 Apr. 1683; and d. 19 Aug. 1684. SCOTCHFORD, JOHN, Concord, was town clk. m. Susanna, perhaps d. of George Meriam, had no ch. says Shattuck, and d. 10 June 1696. His wid. d. 2 Feb. 1707. SCOTT, BENJAMIN, Braintree, had, perhaps b. in Eng. Hannah, wh. m. Christopher Webb; John, b. 25 Dec. 1640, d. soon; rem. to Cambridge, there, by w. Margaret, had Joseph, 14 July 1644; Benjamin, 5 July 1646; John, again, 2 July 1648; Elizabeth 27 May 1650, wh d. in one wk.; rem. to Rowley bef. 1652, there had Samuel, 1655, and two ds.; was freem. 1665, and d. 1671. Of ano. BENJAMIN of Braintree, we kn. only, that his will of 7 Oct. 1683, pro. 29 Apr. foll. refers to no w. or ch. but gives all his est. to br. Peter until the eldest s. of Peter come of age. BENJAMIN, Rowley, s. of the first Benjamin, m. Susanna Searle, had John, b. 1681; Joseph, 1682; Benjamin, 1687; Samuel, 1692. EDMUND, Farmington 1649, by first w. had seven ch. was freem. 1669, had two more ch. by sec. w. Elizabeth wid. of Thomas Upson, but the date of ms. or bs. for neither is told. From his will of 11 June [[37]] 1690, we gain the names of all, Edmund; Samuel, b. 1660; Jonathan; George; David; Robert; Joseph; Elizabeth Davis; and Hannah, w. of John Brunson; yet we shall not be justif. in suppos. this to be the order of success. exc. that the two s. last nam. were by sec. w. nor will conject. be reasona. to determine the priority of the d. whose h.'s name is not seen. Positive informat. however, is afford. on two points, that he was an orig. propr. of Waterbury, and there d. 1691. EDMUND, Waterbury, s. of the preced. m. June 1689, the wid. of Benjamin Porter, who d. 17 Jan. 1749, had a s. b. Oct. 1690, wh. d. in few wks.; Sarah, 29 Jan. 1692; Samuel, Sept. 1694; Elizabeth 1 Mar. 1697; Hannah, June 1700; Edmund, 10 May 1703; John, 21 Sept. 1707; and Jonathan, 4 Aug. 1711; and d. 20 July 1746. EDWARD, ask. for gr. at New London 1651, yet did not impr. it, when giv. not however tempt. towards Hadley, where he first is heard of as serv. of Joseph Kellogg 1662, and where was ano. EDWARD, wh. was he prob. that m. 1670, Elizabeth Webster, perhaps d. of Gov. John, had Elizabeth b. 1671; Sarah, 1674; Thomas, 1675; John, 1677; Ebenezer, 1681; Bridget and Ann, tw. 1682; and Hannah, 14 Mar. 1689. His w. d. two days aft. aged 40; and he rem. perhaps to New Haven, where one Edward was excus. in 1703 from train. in the milit. so leav. us to infer, that he was over 60 yrs. of age. GEORGE, New Haven, a gunsmith, in 1690, had not, nor any other of this surname, been propr. 1685. GEORGE, Waterbury, s. of Edmund, m. Aug. 1691, Mary, d. of Obadiah Richards, had Obadiah, George, and William; and d. 26 Sept. 1724. JOHN, the freem. in Mass. of 22 May 1639, then spelt in Secr.'s list with a k, and JOHN, the freem. of 10 May 1643, aft. many hours of very dilig. scrutiny, elude my skill in search. for the resid. of either; but strong reasons lead me to believe that neither of them was of the three foll. JOHN, Salem, 1648, serv. of Lawrence Southwick, the Quaker, may have gone to Providence, and by w. Rebecca there had Sarah, b. 29 Sept. 1662; John, 14 Mar. 1664; Mary, 1 Feb. 1666; Catharine, 20 May 1668; Deborah, 24 Dec. 1669; and Syvanus, 10 Nov. 1672. He took o. of alleg. to Charles II. in 1668. JOHN, Charlestown 1658, d. 25 Jan. 1682, aged 75, says the gr.st. JOHN, Springfield, m. 20 July 1659, Sarah, d. of Thomas Bliss, had Sarah, b. 19 Oct. 1663; John, 4 Jan. 1666, perhaps, but the last fig. is uncert.; Hannah, 16 Oct. 1668; Margaret, 8 Feb. 1671; Ebenezer, 3 Aug. 1673, William, 8 Aug. 1676; Mary, 29 Dec. 1678; rem. to Suffield, there had Elizabeth 2 Sept. 1683; and he d. 2 Jan. 1690. His wid. m. the same yr. Samuel Terry, and d. 27 Sept. 1705. Of the s. William only, one of the first sett. at Palmer, had ch. Sarah m. 9 Feb. 1680, Benjamin Leonard; Hannah m. 31 Oct. 1695, John Fowler; Margaret m. but the name of her h. is not kn.; Mary m.

I. town, was very active for the honor of the k. in 1663, but in Apr. or May 1664, was tak. by Conn. officers and carr. to prison at Hartford, heavi. fined, and disfranchis. as a defamer of his majesty, &c., &c. JOHN, Roxbury, m. 29 May 1672, Hannah Duncan, or Dunkin, perhaps d. of Samuel, had Hannah, b. 24 July 1674, d. soon; John, 11 Nov. 1675, d. soon; Sarah, d. soon; Hannah, again, 18 Aug. 1678; Mary, 28 July 1679, d. in two days; Margaret, 6 Jan. 1691, d. soon; Joseph, 27 Mar. 1682; John, again, 8 Nov. 1683, d. soon.; Sarah, 9 Nov. 1684, d. next day; and John, again, 9 July 1686. Perhaps he was of Johnson's comp. in the Narraganset campaign, Dec. 1675. His w. d. 1 Jan. 1706, if the rec. that calls her Sarah, be good. JONATHAN, Waterbury, s. of Edmund, m.

JOSEPH, Rowley, s. of the first Benjamin, was, perhaps, of Ipswich 1683. JOSEPH, Farmington, s. of Edmund, d. 1708, leav. s. John. PETER, Braintree, br. of the sec. Benjamin, by w. Abigail had Benjamin, b. 24 Sept. 1674; Peter; and John; was freem. 1685. RICHARD, Boston, shoemaker, join. our ch. 28 Aug. 1634, yet his w. Catharine, d. of Rev. Edward Marbury (as Bishop, in N. E. Judged tells), did not unite, nor either, of the ch. Richard, John, Mary, or Patience, tho. Ann Hutchinson, their aunt, and her sis. had so great sway in it. To this w. Gov. Winthrop I. 293, ascribes much power in giv. light on believers' bapt. to Roger Williams, 1638, at Providence, where he was rem. 1637, bef. the time of disarm. heretic favorers of Hutchinson. He is on the list of freem. 1655, and was among the Quaker converts 1658, and his w. "an ancient woman," was imprison. and whip. at Boston for benevol. serv. in diffus. her opinions, and her ds. Mary and Patience also were imprison. by equal impolicy. Mary m. 12 Aug. 1660, Christopher Holder; Patience m. 28 Sept. 1668, Henry Beere; and Deliverance, prob. a younger d. m. 30 Aug. 1670, William Richardson. ROBERT, Boston, join. the ch. 15 Dec. 1633, then stil. "serv. to our br. John Sanford," so that he prob. was a passeng. in the fleet with Winthrop 1630, was adm. freem. 7 Dec. 1636, by w.

THOMAS, Ipswich, came in the Elizabeth from Ipswich 1634, aged 40, with w. Elizabeth 40; and ch. Elizabeth 9; Abigail, 7; and Thomas, 6; was freem. 4 Mar. foll. made his will 8 Mar. 1654, names ea. of these ch. as liv. but that Thomas was at Stamford, and ment. younger ch. Hannah, Sarah, and Mary. In the same ship came Martha, aged 60, prob. mo. of this Thomas, and Richard Kimball, 39, by Scott, in his will, 20 yrs. later, call br. At Boston, Co. Lincoln, in 1630, was one Thomas Scott, that may have been the same as the preced. or the foll. THOMAS, Hartford 1637, had been, perhaps, of Cambridge, was k. 6 Nov. 1643, careless. by John Ewe, for wh. he. was. fin. L5. to the Col. and £10. to the wid. Aft. being wound. he made nuncup. will, held good, tho. incomplete, as not nam. overseers, provid. for wid. Ann, s. Thomas, and three ds. That s. was infirm in body, or mind, perhaps both, and liv. not long; and the wid. m. 7 Nov. 1644, Thomas Ford; and d. at Northampton, 5 May 1675. One d. Mary m. at the same time with her mo. Robert Porter; ano. Sarah, m. 5 Dec. 1645, John Staley; and the other, Elizabeth m. 3 or 6 Feb. 1649, John Loomis of Windsor.

Num. are descend. Josiah and Joseph cont. at H. but Richard and William were of early sett. in Sunderland. SCOTTOW, or SCOTTAWAY, JOHN, Boston, s. of Thomas, by w. Rebecca had John, b. 25 June 1668; Rebecca, 27 June 1672, d. young; Joshua, 22 Feb. 1675; Rebecca, again, 1 Mar. 1677, d. soon; and Rebecca, again, 21 June 1678. JOSHUA, Boston, merch. brot. by his mo. Thomasine, a wid. wh. join. our ch. 21 Sept. 1634, and he, with br. Thomas, join. it 19 May 1639; was never sw. freem. yet appoint. by the Gen. Ct. a commissnr. for regulat. the export of powder. By his w. Lydia, wh. join. the ch. 23 May 1641, and d. 9 May 1707, aged 86, had Joshua, b. 30 Sept. 1641, d. very soon; Joshua, again, 12, bapt. 20 Aug. 1643; Lydia, bapt. 29 June 1645, tho. the poor substit. for town rec. says b. 30 of that mo.; Elizabeth 1 Aug. 1647, 2 days old; Rebecca, 10 Oct. 1652; Mary, b. 11, bapt. 18 May 1656; Thomas, 30 [[40]] June, bapt. 10 July 1659, H. C. 1677; and Sarah; was of ar. co. 1645, its ens. 1657, and capt. later. He was confident. agent for La Tour in transact. with our governm. 1654-7, and a great propr. aft. Philip's war at Scarborough, capt. of the garrison and magistr. in that region. He was heedless. or cruel. charg. with murder of Nathan Bedford, 1681, shown to be casual. drown. as in the Maine Hist. Col III. may be read. As author of two very curious tracts a. the early hist. of N. E. publish. 1691 and 4, he is oft. quot. and, at the age of 83, he d. 20 Jan. 1698, as tells the gr.st. that was transfer. from the early bur. yd. to the inside of the tower of the O. S. or 3d ch. See Genealogy, Reg. V. 78. His d. Elizabeth m. a. 1664, Thomas Savage; Rebecca m. 1 Apr. 1675, Benjamin Blackman; and Mary m. capt. Samuel Checkley, as by his will of 23 June 1696, pro. 3 Mar. 1698, is seen; beside wh. it gives adeq. provis. to w. Lydia, to s. Thomas a doub. portion, rings to ds. Mary Checkley and Sarah, w. of Samuel Walker, and to ea. of sixteen gr.ch. then liv. and made Judge Sewall and s. Savage and Checkley excors. His eldest d. Lydia, wh. first m. Benjamin Gibbs, and next m. 1678, Anthony Checkley, the atty.-gen. that d. 18 Oct. 1708, had, no doubt, been long bef. set out with her full sh. and for third h. she took, 6 Mar. 1712, William Colman, f. of the disting. Benjamin Colman, then min. of Brattle st. ch. D. D. JOSHUA, prob. s. of the first Thomas, m. 25 May 1697, Sarah, eldest d. of the sec. Zechariah Symmes; but where he liv. when he d. or any further acco. of him, is beyond. my power to tell. THOMAS, Boston, br. perhaps elder, of the first Joshua, a joiner, by w. Joan, wh. was adm. of the ch. 19 Sept. 1641, had Thomas, b. says the stupid town rec. Jan. 1640, when the ch. rec. shows bapt. 8 Dec. preced. wh. d. soon; Thomas, again, bapt. 10 Apr. 1641, one day old, tho. town rec. gives b. in Mar.; John, 2, bapt. 5 May 1644; Thomas, again, 3, bapt. 7 Mar. 1647; and Mehitable, bapt. 11 Feb. 1649; and by sec. w. Sarah had Joshua, 3, bapt. 9 Dec. 1655; Sarah, 27 Sept. bapt. 4 Oct. 1657; Thomasin, 14, bapt. 15 Aug. 1659, d. soon; and Thomasin, again, 18 Aug. 1660. His will, of 9 May 1660, pro. 18 Dec. 1661, names aged mo. Sanford (tho. wh. she was is beyond my conject.), w. Sarah, s. John, and other ch. without naming. THOMAS, Scarborough, s. of Joshua the first, sw. alleg. 1681. SCOVIL, SCOVALL, SCOVEL, or SCOVELL, JOHN, Waterbury, s. of that John, under Scofield, 4 pages bef. m. 6 Feb. 1694, Hannah, d. of Obadiah Richards, had John, b. 12 Jan. foll. perhaps others; was constable, and rep. 1714. His w. d. 5 Mar. 1720; and he d. 26 Feb. 1727. WILLIAM, Haddam, sett. there soon aft. 1668, says Field, 65, to wh. Hinman, 231, adds, that he d. 1712. That may refer to first John. See Scofield, with wh. name I have been much embarrass. to disting. one from ano. and can but fear, that little success has foll. my perplexity. [[41]] SCRANTON, DENNIS, New Haven 1660, m. Sarah, wid of Nicholas Munger, gave informat. perhaps rather minute, than trustworthy, about Whalley and Goffe, to Gov. Endicott's pursuivants in 1661. See Hutch. Coll. 335 for the curious codum. But they mistook the name, and should have writ. Crampton. JOHN, Guilford 1650, whose w. Joanna d. 1651, is among freem. of 1669. For sec. w. he took Adeline, wid. in 1663 of Robert Hill, as in 1661 she had been of Robert Johnson; but prob. had no ch. by her, and d. 27 Aug. 1671, leav. ch. Thomas, John, and Sarah; and his wid. d. 1685. Sarah m. 15 May 1665, John Bushnell. JOHN, Guilford, s. of the preced. m. Mary Seward, d. prob. of William of the same, had Mary, John, and Mehitable, was propound. for freem. 1670; and by sec. w. Elizabeth Clark, perhaps d. of Thomas, had Mercy, b. 1688; Elizabeth 4 Nov. 1692; Ann, 23 Dec. 1693; Ebenezer, 16 Mar. 1696; and Deborah, 3 Dec. 1697. John d. young; but other seven ch. were liv. 1703, at d. of the f. NATHANIEL, Guilford, may have been s. of Thomas of the same, and d. at Wethersfield, 13 Mar. 1693, in his will giv. prop. to William Goodrich, as Hinman, 232, tells; yet it is more prob. that there was no such Nataniel S. and that the testator's name was Crampton. THOMAS, Guilford, s. of the first John, was propos. for freem. 1676, and next yr. accept.; had two ws. first, Deborah Thompson, wid. of Ebenezer, and sec. Elizabeth Goodrich; but had only two ch. that grew up to mature life, Samuel, and Hannah. SCRIBNER, or SCRIVENER, BENJAMIN, Norwalk, m. 5 Mar. 1680, Hannah, d. of John Crampton, had Thomas, b. 31 Mar. 1681; and John; perhaps others. JOHN, Exeter 1689. JOHN, Norwalk, s. of Benjamin, m. 9 Mar. 1710, Deborah, d. of William Lees of the same, had Mary, b. Mar. 1711; and Rebecca, 12 Oct. 1712. SCRIPTURE, SAMUEL, Groton, by w. Elizabeth had Samuel, b. 4 Oc. 1675; Mary, 7 Feb. 1681; Abigail, 28 Jan. 1687; Ruth, 2 Feb. 1697; and Lydia, 28 June 1700. SAMUEL, Groton, s. of the preced. by w. Mary had Sarah, b. 16 Dec. 1700; Jemima, 19 Apr. 1702, wh. d. at 21 yrs.; Samuel, 25 Apr. 1705, d. at 18 yrs.; and James, wh. d. 28 Sept. 1723. His w d. 3 days bef. and by sec. w. Elizabeth he had Samuel, again; 27 Apr. 1727. SCRIVEN, SCREVEN, SCRIEVEN, or SCRIVINE, JOHN, Dover 1662, d. 2 Oct. 1675, says Quint, in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 65, tho. in the same l. he makes his will of 24 Nov. 1674, pro. 27 June foll. that date of its mak. not of his d. Some error, wh. is seldom found in so careful a writer must here demand correct. It ment. w. Mary, and ch. John, Edward, Thomas, and Elizabeth all minors. The d. perhaps m. 1686, Samuel Eastman. WILLIAM, Kittery, had w. Bridget in 1680, was rep. 1681, [[42]] found. of a Bapt. ch. there 1682, in wh. he was a teacher, but aft. some yrs. went to South Carolina, and d. 1713, aged, as is said, 84. SCROOP, ADRIAN, Hartford, witness to execut. of a deed of 31 Mar. 1665, and, again, 8 May 1667 sign. as witness, his name, in a very elegant hand, to deed of Simon Wolcott to Richard Loud of three parcels of ld. wh. was put on rec. 3 days aft. yet no more is ever told of him. Curiosity to a high pitch naturally is felt on two points in this case, when did he come to our country, and what did he do aft. sign. that rare name. One Adrian Scrope, we kn. had been execut. in London, 17 Oct. 1660, for hav. sat on the pretend. trial of k. Charles I. and sign. the warrant for his d. In Noble's Regicides the rep. of his trial is very full, much more than most of the others. Strong prob. from union of such giv. name and surname arises, that this man was s. or near relat. of the regicide; and Dr. Stiles, in the latter part of his extraord. book relative to the three judges, that found shelter at New Haven, appeals to proof from hd. writ. in the fac-simile of the death warrant of Charles and the rec. of this deed at Hartford, for, strange as it seems, the attestation of the deed is by the witnesses on the rec. itself as well as on the docum. The Doctor's eye saw more than mine, and he appears almost satisf. with the identity of the writing, as if Col. Scrope were in person at H. six yrs. and a half aft. his head was cut off. Between 29 Jan. 1649, when he affix. his hd. and seal to that writ, order. the subord. officer. at such an hour next day to put the k. to d. and this Hartford act 8 Mar. 1667, I would not affirm, that Col. Scrope's writing could not vary much, had not the solemn execution of the 17 Oct. 1660 interven. Stiles was a man of wonderful capacity of belief, and the estimate of his judgment in this matter is reduced by a mistake of the name of the other witness in this very docum. writ. Reeve, but by the President made Robert Pierce. Beside, the differece of names between the London sufferer, wh. used but one o, and our Hartford witness that doubled the letter, is not ment. SCRUGGS, THOMAS, Salem, came with the few companions of Endicott in the Abigail, 1628, says Felt, yet this relies solely on tradit. and might seem to early, for he did not take o. of freem until 2 Sept 1635; but he was esteem. eno. to be chos. to three Gen. Cts. next yr. also authoriz. with others to hold special Ct. for the vicinage, and was a selectman. But for his heretic. pravity he was next yr. supersed. and in Nov. disarm. as a danger. man, like the majority of Boston ch. I suppose he had w. Margery, and that he d. early in 1652; and that Felt mistook his name as if it were William; and that, as the wid. gave up to her s.-in-law John Raymond in June 1652 her est. in dower, she may have gone home, or perhaps was the woman that d. 26 Jan. 1663. See Hist. Coll. of Essex Inst. I. 11, comp. with III. 142. [[43]] SCUDDER, JAMES, Woburn, had Deborah, b. 26 July 1647, tho. the name is not clear. legib. and may be mistak. JOHN, Charlestown 1639, came in the James from London, 1635, aged 16, was of Salem 1640 prob. for among memb. of ch. that yr. is Elizabeth and he had Mary, bapt. 11 June 1648; Elizabeth Mar. 1649; and Hannah, 19 Aug. of the same yr. In 1654 he rem. to Southold, as Felt assur. Farmer; yet Riker, wh. gives him s. Samuel, and John, makes the resid. bef. 1660, at Newtown, quite to the W. of his first habitat. JOHN, Newtown, L. I. s. of the preced. m. Joanna, d. of capt. Richard Betts, had John, and d. 1732. JOHN, Barnstable 1640, bore arms 1643, had a sis. Elizabeth dism. from Boston ch. 10 Nov. 1644, with recommenda. and she m. 28 of the same Samuel Lothrop, s. of the Rev. John, at his f.'s house. He had, by w. whose name is not kn. ds. Elizabeth and Sarah, bapt. 10 May 1646; Mary, bur. 3 Dec. 1649, prob. very young; and Hannah, bapt. 5 Oct. 1651, wh. m. 1 Dec. 1669, Joshua Bangs.

THOMAS, Salem, had gr. of ld. 1648, and, perhaps, w. Rachel that was adm. of the ch. 1649. But ano. w.

John est. in Boston of their f. John, claim was made 16 Apr. 1662, may be read in Vol. III. 523 of our regist. of deeds. SEAGER, SEEGER, or SEGER, HENRY, Newton, m.

He had sec. w. Elizabeth and m. third, 1709, Sarah Wheeler of Dedham. Ebenezer was k. by the Ind. 21 July 1706, at Groton. Butler, in Hist. 96, gives the name Leger, but that is only mistake of the author's handrit. by the print. LAWRENCE, came to Boston in the James from Southampton, 1635, a youth of 17, and no more is kn. of him. RICHARD, Hartford 1650, had Elizabeth b. in June of that yr.; also had Richard, John, and Ebenezer, wh. was drown. 1669. He was adm. freem. of Conn. May 1657, and may have been of Stonington, for a good w. S. is ment. in 1668, as adher. of the jurisdict. R. I. and the Conn. (Stonington) freem. of 1669 has not his name. His w. Elizabeth was indict. 1663 for "familiarity with Satan," and practis. witchcr. but tho. the jury found her in Mar. guilty of the familiarity, the wiser Ct. set her free in May 1666, "the verdict of the jury not answer. to the indictm. legally." Aft. this prob. the fam. rem. to R. I. where, I presume, the devil had less power or impudence. To Elizabeth S. in his will of 25 July 1655, John Moody of Hartford gave L25., and it may be suppos. therefore, that the mo. of this ch. was his sis. The time of his d. is unkn.

WILLIAM, Kittery, perhaps br. of the first Andrew, may have been the town clk. instead of A. WILLIAM, Rowley 1689, prob. s. of the preced. by w. Deborah had William, b. 1690. Of this name, in 1829, two had been gr. at Harv. two at Yale and six at other N. E. coll. [[46]] SEARS, DANIEL, Boston, mariner, had w. Mary, on whose d. when he was abroad, admin. was giv.

SEAVY, JOHN, Portsmouth, perhaps s. of William, m. 29 July 1686, Hannah, wid. of Joseph Walker, d. of John Philbrook of Hampton. NATHANIEL, and THOMAS, were, perhaps, brs. of the preced. and unit. with him and f. in praying, 1690, for jurisdict. of Mass. THOMAS, Newcastle, N. H. perhaps br. of the preced. at Isle of Shoals in 1663, d. 15 Mar. 1708. WILLIAM, Portsmouth, one of the comp. by Mason sent over in 1631, was constable at Isle of Shoals 1655, much engag. in the fishery, and selectman 1657, and d. 1671. His prop. was large, by inv. of 13 Dec. amount. to L631, 7, 8, and in Apr. foll. his wid. Elizabeth had admin. SEBBORN, SIBBORNE, SEBORNE, or SEABORN, JOHN, Boston, by w. Mary, wh. join. our ch. 10 Aug. 1644, had Elizabeth bapt. next day; Mary, 22 Sept. foll. a 7 days old; and Deborah, 1 May 1646, a. 4 days old. SECCOMB, PETER, Medford, perhaps s. of the first Richard, m. 25 Feb. 1702, Hannah Willis, d. of Stephen, had Willis, b. 30 Apr. 1704, d. under 21 yrs.; John, 30 July 1706, d. next yr.; John, again, 25 Apr. 1708, H. C. 1728, min. of Harvard; Charles, 15 Jan. 1710, d. under 21 yrs; Thomas, 16 Aug. 1711; and Joseph, H. C. 1731, min. of Kingston, a celebr. wit; and d. 8 Sept. 1756. His wid. d. 15 Dec. 1760. RICHARD, Lynn 1660, d. 1694, had Noah; Richard; Peter, b. 1678; and Susanna. RICHARD, Medford, s. prob. of the preced. by w. [[48]] Ann had Jonathan, b. 17 Sept. 1710; Ann, 17 Sept. 1712; and Dorothy, 24 Jan. 1715. THOMAS, br. prob. of the preced. m. Rebecca, d. of Stephen Willis, may have liv. at Lynn. SEDGWICK, ROBERT, Charleston 1636, prob. came 1635 in the Truelove, aged 24, tho. in the custom-ho. rec. the name appears Jo. inst. of Ro. join. the ch. with w. Joanna, on 27 Feb. 1637, and was made freem. 9 Mar. foll. when he was appoint. capt. for the town by our Ct. and chos. next mo. rep. and aft. for sixteen Cts. more. His neighb. capt. Edward Johnson, in Wonder work. Provid. c. 26 of book ii., the most valua. of that curious vol. assures us, that he was "nurst up in London's Artil. garden;" and our rec. show, that he was one of the found. of our art. co. 1638, its capt. 1640, command. of the castle 1641, head of the regim. of Middlesex 1643, and last. maj.-gen. of the Col. soon aft. call. by O. Cromwell to milit. serv. with John Leverett (aft. our Gov.) for his sec. and bef. long time sent to Jamaica, recent. conquer. There he d. 24 May 1656. Joanna, the Gen.'s wid. was liv. 1667 at Stepney, near London. By her he had Samuel, bapt. 31 Mar. 1639; and Hannah, 14 Mar. 1641; beside William, and Robert, wh. prob. were his ch. and Sarah, b. certain. in Eng. as may have been these s. Certainty is beyond our reach, bec. rec. of town is imperfect, and the ch. rec. of bapt. from 20 Sept. 1642 to 4 July 1658 is a total. sad blank space. Our Charlestown soldier, in letters of Nov. 1655, pray. leave to come from Jamaica to London, recommends his w. and five ch. to the kindness of the Lord Protector, and we have only to regret, that his pathetic appeal was disregard. Frothingham, 135-9, is copius and correct. Sarah bec. sec. w. of Gov. Leverett. Whether she were sis. or d. might be disput. and this point that Mather ought to have elucidat. is confus. by him. Yet high is the prob. if her d. 2 Jan. 1705 is accomp. with correct statem. that she was 74 yrs. old, that she was b. in Eng. and was eldest ch. of the disting. soldier. ROBERT, Charlestown, s. of the preced. as confident. is presum. b. prob. in Eng. by w. Sarah had William, b. 9 June 1676; and Sarah, 19 Dec. 1677. He d. on a return voyage from Jamaica, leav. trifl. est. of wh. admin. was giv. to his wid. Sarah, 26 Apr. 1683. SAMUEL, br. of the preced. was of Charlestown not long, but chief. liv. at London, had w. Elizabeth prob. hoped to obt. some reward for serv. of his f. but long bef. his m. he was witness to the will, 17 June 1657, of Jonathan Wade of our Ipswich, then at L. and it is curious, that his signature was pro. in Eng. by his wid. 1 Dec. 1683, then aged only 33 yrs. and she says he was her h. six yrs. "Citizen and clothworker of London," he calls hims. in a deed of 20 May 1667, whereby he sold his ho. and ld. in C. to Francis Willoughby. SAMUEL, Hartford, only ch. of William of the same, m. 1689, Mary, d. [[49]] of Stephen Hopkins of the same, had Samuel, b. 22 Aug. 1690; Jonathan, 29 Mar. 1693; Ebenezer, 25 Feb. 1695; Joseph, 16 May 1697; Stephen, 17 Mar. 1701; Abigail, 23 Feb. 1703; Mary, 1 July 1705; William, 29 June 1707; Elizabeth 10 Dec. 1708; Thankful, 3 Nov. 1710, d. under 10 yrs.; Mercy, 18 Jan. 1713; and Benjamin, 7 Nov. 1716; and d. 24 Mar. 1735. His wid. d. 4 Sept. 1743. He was gr.f. of the Hon. Theodore, speaker of the Ho. of Rep. in Congr. of the U. S. a. 65 yrs. since, and aft. a judge of S. J. C. in Mass. and progenit. of many amiab. and disting. writers that have adorn. the name in our coutry. WILLIAM, Hartford, s. of the first Robert, may have been b. in Eng. m. Elizabeth youngest d. of Rev. Samuel Stone, had Samuel, b. 1667; but he had prob. been ruin. in morals by serv. in the army of Eng. and aft. many yrs. of abandonm. of his w. as she alleg. in petitn. for div. May 1673, the Gen. Ct. of Conn. Oct. 1674, releas. her from the "unchristian bondage." She m. John Roberts, but tho. she had s. John, was not much better sort. with the new h. yet liv. with him, 1695, on L. I. Of S. little more is kn. exc. that he sold, 7 Sept. 1668, all right in est. of his f. to Francis Willoughby. Yet an obscure report was circulat. that he d. on return from the W. I. to Boston. SEDLEY, JAMES, was, says Farmer, early sett. at Weymouth; but I kn. nothing of him. SEELEY, JOHN, Isle of Shoals 1647, was, perhaps, aft. at Newbury. JOHN, Fairfield, perhaps s. of Robert, m. bef. 1691, Sarah, d. of George Squire. NATHANIEL, New Haven 1646, s. of Robert, m. at Fairfield, 1649, or earlier, Mary, d. of Benjamin Turney, rem. to F. was freem. 1657; m. sec. w. late in 1674, or early next yr. Elizabeth wid. of Obadiah Gilbert, former. wid. of Nehemiah Olmstead, serv. as lieut. in Philip's war, 1675, and was k. at the head of his comp. in the gr. swamp fight, 19 Dec. A gr. was made next yr. to his wid. Nine ch. all, I presume, by first w. were left, Nathaniel, Robert, Benjamin, Joseph, John, Mary, Sarag, Phebe, and Rebecca. OBADIAH, Stamford, prob. s. of Robert, m. the wid. of John Miller of S. but d. 1657, leav. wid. and ch. Obadiah, Cornelius, and Jonas. ROBERT, Watertown, prob. came in the fleet with Winthrop for his req. of adm. was in Oct. 1630, and he took the o. of freem. 18 May foll. was employ. as surveyor 1634, and in 1636 rem. to Wethersfield, was next yr. a lieut. in the Pequot war, perhaps short time at New Haven 1639, and in 1646 had leave to go home, but in few yrs. was again here, and in 1654 led the force of N. H. rais. for serv. under Sedgwick and Leverett against the neighb. prov. of New Netherlands, that was happi. prevent. by restor. of peace in Europe. He was at Saybrook 1662, Stratford 1663, and the same yr. at Huntington, on L. I. in the head of the milit. but at New York aft. its conq. and [[50]] there d. His wid. Mary had admin. 19 Oct. WILLIAM, Isle of Shoals, perhaps br. of John of the same, was of gr. jury 1656, d. at Saco, 1672, says Folsom, 188, wh. tells, that his d. Emma m. John Ruel, and Dorcas m. James Gibbins, jr. in 1668. SEKER, or SECKER, HENRY, a youth of 8 yrs. wh. came in the Speedwell from London, arr. at Boston 27 July 1656, perhaps was he that sett. at Newton with name of Seager. SELDEN, or SELDON, JOSEPH, Hadley, s. of Thomas the first, m. 1677, Rebecca Church, d. of deac. Edward of Hatfield, had Rebecca, b. 1678; Esther, 1680, d. next yr.; Joseph, 1682; rem. to Deerfield, there had Thomas, 1684; and Hannah; but in few yrs. was back at Hadley, and had Mary, 5 Mar. 1689; Esther, again, 2 May 1691; Samuel, 17 May 1695; rem. once more to Lyme, there purchas. large est. and part. in Haddam, had Sarah, bapt. 20 July 1712; and d. bef. 1 Feb. 1725, when this est. was div. by their own act to three s. Joseph and Thomas of H. and Samuel of L. with five ds. Rebecca, w. of James Wells; Mercy, w. of Isaac Spencer; Esther, w. of Jabez Chapman; Hannah, w. of Daniel Brainard, all of H. and Sarah Selden of L. THOMAS, Hartford 1639, freem. 1640, had Thomas, bapt. 31 Aug. 1645; John, wh. d. May 1650; Mary, 26 Mar. 1648 or 9; Esther, 3 Mar. 1650, d. next yr.; Joseph, 2 Nov. 1651; Hannah; and Sarah; and d. bef. the end of 1655. His will, of 14 Aug. names wid. Esther, wh. m. Andrew Warner, and all the five ch. rem. to Hadley. The mo. d. 1693; Hannah, infirm, d. 1695; and Mary m. 12 Dec. 1666, John Taylor. THOMAS, Hadley, s. of the preced. m. Felix, d. of William Lewis the sec. of Farmington, had John, b. 16 June 1675; Thomas, 12 Nov. 1677, wh. was k. on that terrib. 29 Feb. 1704, at Deerfield; and Ebenezer, 2 Mar. 1679 or 80; and d. at honora. age, 24 Nov. 1734. His wid. was liv. 1738. Sometimes this name, of wh. twelve had been gr. at Yale, two at Dart. none at Harv. in 1848, is seen under pervers. as Selding. SELLAN, or SELLEN, THOMAS, Ipswich, allow. as inhab. by the Gen. Ct. 11 June 1663, tho. they had order, 1 Apr. preced. that no person should go to plant there exc. those already gone. Possib. he rem. bef. 1638 to Braintree, at least no more at I. can be heard of him; and at B. a rec. of d. is seen, 3 Dec. 1642, of Thomas Sellem, wh. may seem to be this man. SELLOCK, SELLICK, SILIECK, or SELLECK, DAVID, Boston, soapboiler, by w. Susanna had David, b. 11 Dec. 1638; Jonathan, 20 May 1641; John, 21, bapt. 23 Apr. 1643; Nathaniel, 18, bapt. 27 July 1645; Joanna, 11 Dec. 1647; Elizabeth 1 Feb. 1652; and Susanna, 1653, wh. d. soon; and he d. 1654, in Virg. His inv. of 6 Dec. in that yr. [[51]] shows fair est. in sum, yet very little beyond debts. How his name was pervert. to Zullesh may be seen near the end of this vol. DAVID, Boston, merch. eldest s. of the preced. trad. to Barbados 1663. JOHN, Stamford, br. of the preced. freem. 1670, was rich and enterpris. master of a vessel to Eng. tak. May 1689 by the French, and never came home, yet his est. was not administ. bef. 5 Mar. 1700. By w. Sarah, d. of Richard Law, he had Sarah, b. 22 Aug. 1669; David, 27 Dec. 1672; Nathaniel, 7 Apr. 1678; John, 7 June 1681; Susanna, 2 Feb. 1683; and Joanna, 31 May 1686. His wid. d. 8 Nov. 1732. JONATHAN, Stamford, elder br. of the preced. m. Abigail, d. of Richard Law, had Jonathan, b. 11 July 1664; David, 27 Jan. 1666; and John, H. C. 1690, but he and the other ch. with the mo. all d. bef. the f. wh. d. 10 Jan. 1713. By his will he gave "the Latin, Greek, and Hebrew books" to Rev. John Davenport, wh. had m. 1695, Martha, the wid. of his s. John, d. of Nathan Gould. He had been active in business, was innholder 1665, freem. 1667, lieut. capt. and at last major, rep. 1670, and again 1675. NATHANIEL, Boston, youngest br. of the preced. was apprent. to David Evans, wh. in his will of 30 June 1663, left him £10. if he faithful. discharg. his indent. My conject. is, that this is the name giv. as Lellock by the careless penman wh. copied the book used as a rec. of births in Boston bef. 1690. SELMAN, JOHN, Pemaquid, took o. of fidel. to Mass. 1674. SEMOND, WILLIAM, Boston, by w. Ann, d. of George Barrell, had Hannah, b. Sept. 1640, wh. is nam. in the will of gr.f. B. SENDALL, SAMUEL, Boston, first was at Newbury, as in his will he says, "Edward Rawson brot. me into this country." By w. Joanna had Joanna, bapt. 21 Sept. 1651, wh. m. John Hunlock; and Mary, b. 13 Mar. 1653, wh. d. young. Ano. w. Elizabeth in his will of 29 Sept. 1684, pro. 8 Oct. next, describ. as "singular. comfortable, and good w. and yokefellow," was provid. for by the contract of m. 4 Oct. 1684; yet he gave something to her and also to her d. Abigail W. tho. most, of course, to his d. Hunlock and ch. The wid. had been third w. of John Warren, and found ano. h. in John Hayward, the notary, and a fourth in Phineas Wilson of Hartford. SENDEN, SAMUEL, Marblehead, a petitnr. 1668, against imposts, freem. 1684. SENNOT. See Sinnett. SENSION, SENTION, SENCHION, or ST. JOHN, JAMES, Norwalk, s. prob. of the first Matthew, m. 31 Dec. 1673, Rebecca, d. of John Picket of Stratford, propound. as freem. 1674, d. prob. bef. 1688, yet may have had sev. ch. MARK, Norwalk, s. of Matthew the first, suppos. eldest, perhaps b. in Eng. m.

He took sec. w. prob. in Jan. 1693, Dorothy, wid. of Francis Hall, d. of Rev. Henry Smith, and had been wid. of John Blakeman; and d. 12 Aug. foll. For her fourth h. the wid. took deac. Isaac Moore, first of Farmington, aft. of Norwalk. MATTHEW, or MATTHIAS, Dorchester 1634, freem. Sept. of that yr. rem. prob. in 1638 to Windsor, was one of the first sett. at Norwalk, a. 1654, there d. 1669, aft. 11 Oct. the date of certific. by the constable (wh. was his s. Mark), mak. return of the freem. of the town. Beside him, he left Matthew, Samuel, James, and sev. ds. MATTHEW, Norwalk, s. of the preced. in 1672 had sev. ch. of wh. one was Matthew, and he, I believe, gave the same name to one in the fourth generat. NICHOLAS, Windsor, thot. to be younger br. of the first Matthew, came, at the age of 13, in the Elizabeth and Ann from London, 1635, was of W. in 1640, so that we may suppose, he had been at Dorchester, and rem. with him. He was adm. freem. 1657, and d. 1689, leav. no ch. SAMUEL, Norwalk, br. of James, m. Sept. 1663, Elizabeth d. of Walter Haite, had Sarah, b.

HENRY, Newbury 1635, had liv. 1623 at Manchester, Eng. it is said, also that he was eldest s. of Henry, Mayor of Coventry, and bapt. 8 Apr. 1576. His w. Coffin calls Ann Hunt, but in Col. rec. her name is Ellen, and his only ch. was Henry, old eno. to be sent over a yr. bef. his f. but perhaps he was s. of an earlier w. than this brot. from Eng. No doubt the s. would better have been pleas. had the f. contin. at home, for he was dissatisf. with every body and thing, soon separat. from his w. disturb. the ch. of Ipswich bef. he mov. to N. thence he rem. to Rowley, there d. 1657, more than 80 yrs. old. That he was insane, is the natur. conclusion, and the acts of governm. were injudic. See Col. Rec. I. 163, 233, and 286, beside the full relat. in Coffin, 61. HENRY, Newbury, only s. of the preced. came, at the age of 20, in the Elizabeth Dorcas, 1634, was first at Ipswich, but with early sett. went to N. next yr.; m. 25 Mar. 1646, Jane, eldest ch. of Stephen Dummer, had gone home with f. and mo. of his w. and resid. short time at Warwick, next at Tunworth, 4 miles from Basingstoke, in Hants, where was b. his first ch.

He was a min. in Eng. but I do not so mark. him, for he never officiat. here; but a let. to our Gov. from the Lord Protecter; Richard, the wiser son of Oliver, during his brief exalta. 23 Mar. 1659, fully proves it; and grow. from personal acquaint. it is well worth perus. in Hutch.

Ct. 1692, and one of a special, but unlawful, commiss. with others under dep.-gov. Stoughton for trial of the witches; sev. yrs. judge of pro. and d. 1 Jan. 1730. For his partak. in the doleful delusion of that monstrous tribunal at Salem, that caus. the d. of so many innocents, he suffer. remorse for long yrs. with the highest Christian magnanim. supplicat. for mercy on the Lord's day, in the open congregat. tho less tenderness of conscience was shown by a very relig. magistr. the chief in that cause. See Hutch. II. 61. He may also claim the honor of being one of the earliest in exertions against domestic slavery, and in answ. to him on of his assoc. judges publish. defence. By his first w.

Folly has never been gratif. by any tradit. more than the story of the m. of this Judge S. as Hutch. I. 178, tells, that he rec. with his first w. "as common. report. thirty thousand pounds in N. E. shillings." Easy was it for credulity to accept the addit. to that tale, that she was put into the scales against an equal load of her f.'s coin. Slight arithmetic would prove, that f. an d. together would scarce. balance one tenth of the silver; so that if we strike out one of the cyphers from that 30000, and assume that dollars were the [[56]] true read instead of pounds, it might be less marvel. if equal. ridiculous. Prob. he was the richest man in the Prov. at his d. yet he left no will, and his admors. saw no use in return of inv. Amicable partition, no doubt, was suffic. for the heirs.

BENJAMIN, New London, mariner, s. of Nicholas, m. 10 Apr. 1672, Mary, eldest d. of John Picket, had Ruth, b. 24 Dec. foll.; Benjamin, 20 Mar. 1675; Mary, 26 Mar. 1677; Joseph, 15 Aug. 1681, wh. d. young; Ann, 31 Aug. 1685; Daniel, 14 Feb. 1690; Jane, 1696; and Adam, 1698, d. young; and d. 3 Aug. 1706, in 56th yr. if the credit of the gr.st. leads us to believe he was the sec. not first Benjamin of his f. JOHN, Kittey, perhaps s. of Alexander, was serg. 1659; k. by the Ind. 29 Apr. 1706, as Penhallow tells, when his s. was tak. by them to Canada, and treat. very cruel. Niles relates the same matter with slight differ. of date. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VI. 275. NICHOLAS, Boston, perhaps br. of Alexander, had Benjamin, b. Sept. 1645, perhaps his youngest, liv. aft. at Charlestown, was a capt. and d. 15 Feb. 1663. His will, of 21 Jan. 1662, pro. 7 Sept. 1663, gave to his w. "the ho. in wh. Mr. Roswell lives," wh. was, of course, one of the best in that town, ment. the s. Nicholas, Joseph, and Benjamin, and made Hon. Richard Russell an overseer. For bequest of a sh. in his est. to s. Joseph, is attach. a curious condition--"in case he m. Sarah, d.of Randall Nichols." His wid. Ann d. 26 Mar. 1687, in 80th. yr. She and her s. Joseph act. as excors. NICHOLAS, Kittery, s. of Alexander, b. in Eng. a man of emin. was first of Portsmouth, sold his est. there in Dec. 1644, chos. [[60]] Traesr. of the Province of Maine 1649, capt. in 1653, major in 1656, supersed. in 1663 by William Phillips, being in 1662 a magistr. next to the right worshipf. Henry Josselyn. He had w. Alice, no. ch. went home prob. seven yrs. later, and liv. long, yet came not again to our side of the ocean, I presume, but d. in Eng. 1681 or 2. His name is not includ. with. those the royal commisnrs. honor. in giv. office, wh. might seem to prove his abs. tho. special reason may be, his tenderness for Quakers. *NICHOLAS, Charlestown, s. of Nicholas the first, was a major, dism. in July 1669, by the Country Court, from that office, as a Quaker, but his nearer neighb. contin. to trust his goodness, made him rep. 1696, and he prob. had s. of the same name, and no little hesitat. is felt in distinguish. one from the other. SHARP, CHARLES, New Hampsh. 1684. JOHN, Dover 1663. JOHN, Westerly 1668. JOHN, Boston, by w. Martha had Robert, b. 1665; and prob. others. He was s. of Robert, liv. at Muddy riv. now Brookline, was lieut. of that comp. of Wadsworth at Sudbury fight, Apr. 1676, that was near. cut off to a man. A let. of his, writ. few wks. bef. his d. in Geneal. Reg. X. 65, is worth read. Dr. Pierce, in his Hist. of the town, says, "the s. of this lieut. S. afterwards lost his life in an expedit. against the Ind. in Canada." JOHN, Cambridge, merch. had w.

SAMUEL, Salem 1629, came, with Rev.

John Endicott, Gov. of their planta. with three min. Higginson, Skelton, and Bright, beside the two Browns, John, and Samuel, and Thomas Graves, the engineer. But as they were requir. to be under oath, and that was prob. never admin. (see Endicott); and as he was chos. an Assist. at the Gen. Ct. in London, 20 Oct. foll. (when Winthrop was chos. Gov. in lieu of Cradock then resign.) but never took the o. of qualificat. being on our side of the water, and Ludlow was chos. in his place, at the Ct. 10 Feb. aft.

Aft. the governm. was transfer. hither, he desir. adm. freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was adm. 3 July 1632, [[61]] but had been made rul. elder, prob. in 1630, aft. d. of Houghton. By w.

Dudley may be infer.) was tak. from him, and his ho. burn. 16 Mar. aft. so that we may not blame, however we regret, his leav. our country forever, emb. 1 Apr. with Sir Richard Saltonstall and his fam. to go home. SHARSWOOD, GEORGE, New London 1666, had George, and William, perhaps not tw. bapt. 2 Apr. 1671; Mary, 1672; and Catharine, 1674.

I ought to ment. that some slight uncert. is felt, whether this man were s. of Abraham, since Weymouth rec. show, that one JOHN there m. 7 June 1658; Sarah Waters, and he may have been of Abraham, and this h. of Alice have been br. of Abraham. However, as he nam. his eldest, or sec. s. Abraham (wh. serv. as a soldier on Conn. riv. Mar. 1676), my assumpt. may be good.

Judith had Elizabeth b. 26 Sept. 1687; Joseph, 11 Jan. 1692; Judith, 4 May 1693; and Abigail, 17 July 1695; perhaps others. Whatever doubt of identi. as to one or ano. John of Weymouth is felt, it is indisput. that Rev. John, gr.gr.s. of [[65]] Abraham, H.C. 1729, had four s. wh. were min. viz.: Oakes, H. C. 1758, f. of Hon. Lemuel, H. C. 1800, thirty yrs. Ch.

In 1643 he rem. to Boston, and was engag. soon to m. the only ch. of Henry Webb; and in the rec. of our Gen. Ct. II. 46, we read this unusu. favor: "Jacob S. and Margaret Webbe are permit. to join in m. tho. but twice publish." He had Elizabeth b. 1 Oct. 1644; Sarah, 14 Sept. 1652; Ebenezer, 4 Feb. 1654; a ch. whose name is not told, 25 July 1655; Mehitable, 28 May 1658; and Jacob, posthum. 23 July 1659. In 1648 he was chos. to the ar. co. and the inscript. on his tomb in the old gr.yd. tells, that he d. 22 Mar. 1659, aged 42, only ch. then liv. being Elizabeth and Mehitable. His wid. m. Rev.

It made Philip and Timothy excors. and ment. his br. Peleg. But no informat. of the br. is obt. nor could I learn any thing of descend. of John, yet it is well kn. they have been num. Always have I suspect. that this name is the same as Sherman, even on our side of the water, but a large proportion of one branch being Quakers, the distinct. was easi. and harmless. made by insert. of the first let. of our alpha.

JOHN, Braintree, br. of Edward, had Samuel, wh. d. 29 Aug. 1641; was freem. 10 May 1643, in 1645, was one of the 32 petitnrs. desiring to plant at Narraganset. Happi. that project, caus. some trouble by adverse claim of Plymouth, and more by the iniquit. pursuit of the poor Gortonists, to drive them from Warwick, was overthrown by the Charter. giv. to Roger Williams; and both the unjust pretensions were abandon. See Winthrop II. 252. To support the Mass. claim, and defeat the R. I. chart. of 14 Mar. 1644, a fictitios gr. of that territory bear. date 10 Dec. preced. that is earlier by 94 days, was brot. out from the files in our Secretary's office by Mr. Felt, and aft. slumber of two hundred and thirteen yrs. innocent. publ. in Geneal. Reg. XI. 41, 2, 3. I have examin. the orig. parchm. and have no doubt of its worthless character, as several of the signatures, if not all, are pretty evident forgeries; and scrupulous history would be content with the declarat. of the Earl of Warwick, whose name is the first sign. of course, as was the first man in the Parliament's commiss. for the N. E. Planta. He (as Roger Williams wrote to John Mason of Conn.) said that he had not sign. any such patent bef. that of 14 Mar. "and he was sure, that chart. wh. the Mass. Englishmen pretend. had never passed the table." In 1645 Dudley was our Gov. and we may be sure, he had no belief in it, or he would have relied on its absolute grant when writing to the governm. of Plymouth. He makes no refer. to it. Endicott, the Gov. of 1644, and Winthrop, the ch. ruler of 1646, 7, and 8, must despise it, aft. they knew it was denounc. as no act of the signers in Eng. How, and by wh. this docum. was fabricat. may be a curious question. Not a single seal of the pretend. nine signers is attach. but three of them, Rudyard, Vassal, and Bond, in their solemn oder of 15 May 1646, giv. in full by Winthrop II. 280-2; four of them, Heselrige [[73]] and Corbet, in equal. solemn act of 22 July 1647, with the two Earls of Warwick and Manchester, Winthrop II. 319;- and the same four in a prior letter of 25 May 1647, Winthrop II. 320, implicit. deny any such grant to Mass. So that we have seen of the nine denounc. the spurious act, and four of them twice over, and the two Earls even. thrice. Prob. the parchm. was sent by one or both of the former Mass. agents, Hugh Peter and Thomas Welde; but I ought not to charge on either of them an intent to deceive, unless a false date led irresistab. to such deduct. It was only a draft or project of a patient, it might be said; but that 10 Dec. 1643 was a Sunday. A judicial blindess seems to have attend. base or childish attempts at forgery in the remarka. instances of tak. the Lord's day for date of the magnific. grant of all New Hampsh. 17 May 1629, usual. call. the Wheelwright deed,--the petty convey. to Brewster of only eighty acres at Portsmouth, 6 Dec. 1629,-and this charter or patent to rob. R. I. of all the terrio. both E. and W. of Narraganset Bay, 10 Dec. 1643. SIC SEMPER INJUSTIS. A subsequent or aft. thot. was, indeed, the contrivance of Welde in his famous issue of "Antiomians and Familists, & c." near. a. the same time. But such jugglery is more to be expect. in a controversial pamphlet, than a solemn State docum. Rogues must always dread the sun, and sometimes the almanac.* The w. of S. was Margaret, and he d. Sept. 1650, she surv. * A brief note (on the first word of the last sentence of this invalua. docum. "Yeomen"), by Mr. Felt, is very significant. It proves that Chaucer, wh. d. 244 yrs. bef. employ. the term for Given. Aft. Chaucer it was not prob. used in many cases; but between the time of Bloody Queen Mary, and booby King James, it must have given way to our modern word. The use of it proves too much by a great deal, if intend. to indicate the issue of the deed Dec. 1643 bef. that of Mar. 1644. In those 94 days our languge did not so rapid improve; but near twelve times as many months, I suppose, our generous had supersed. the barbarous term, at least insolemn acts of States; and we all feel, that the right of existence in a large community should not be sett. by a point of verbal criticism. Since the foregoing was written, I have gained the benefit of the sec. Vol. of the Hist of N.E. and find that Dr. Palfrey (whose inspection nothing escapes) had felt more than one difficulty on this subject. A valua. note on p. 217 states, "resecting this patent," "there are some things obscure." He then adopts the suggest. that "it was prob. obt. by Welde," concur. with the presumpt. express. in the Rec. of R. I. II. 162, but aggravates the palpable obscure by a most reasona. conject. that it was "without authority from Mass; Yet it would seem very odd, that a solemn patent conveying jurisdict. from the sovereign power of Eng. to the colony of Mass. over the whole of the present state of R. I. should be solicit. by a private man for her without any commiss. thereunto. Next, the acumen of the historian observes, that "Williams's patent CONFLICTS with it; and we are left without informat. as to the cause wh. could have led to such an inconsistency on the part of the Commissioners." Certain. that act of the E. of Warwick, Sir Arthur Hesselrige, Samuel Vassal, Miles [[74]] JOHN, Cambridge, prob. br. of Edward, m. 4 Oct. 1649, Rebecca, d. of Samuel Greenhill, had Rebcca; Sarah, b. 5 Mar. 1656; John, 22 Jan. 1658; Violet; Elizabeth bapt. 29 July 1660; Edward, b.31 July 1662; Samuel, bapt. 3 July 1664; Thomas, b. 30 Apr. 1666; Deborah; Abigail; and Hannah. His w. d. 22 Dec. 1689, and he m. Martha, wid. of Arthur Corbet, and Wm. Spurstowe on 14 Mar. 1644, conflicts with the possibility of their having on 10 Dec. preced. grant. and convey. similar, aye the same, power and authority to an antagonist. comp. Still, it is not only the conflict we inquire about, but the case with wh. the weaker side prevail.; and so the perservering scrutiny next finds remarka. "the forbearance of Mass. to found any practical claim upon it." Great sagacity is observa. in suggest. of the reason by the elaborate writer,--"to have been the caution of her magistra. a. involv. them in an admissn. of the lawfulness of the authty. intrusted to the Parliamenta. Commissnrs." Here seems much more refinement than solidity; but all need of such exercise of skill was taken away very soon, when it was found that the pretended patent was only a flimsy fabrication. Dr. Palfrey had on the former p. refer. to a letter in Gov. Winth's. Hist. II. 193, from the E. of Northumberland and eleven others of the princip. leaders in affairs, of wh. eight were not Commissnrs. of plantations, and took notice that only three whose names are sign. to the spurious parchm. as Commissnrs. unit. with that recommend. of Ro. Williams to friend. treatm. and therefore puts an inquiry--Were the Commissnrs. cautious a. compromis. their dignity by demand. of Mass. what she was not unlikely to deny? I can ascribe no such exquisite craft to our friends in Eng. epecial. bec. in Nov. 1646 the Commissnrs. Order of 15 May preced. (relat. to Gorton and Holden), so clear. asserts the wrong in views of Mass. "We find withal that the tract of ld. call. the Narraganset Bay (concerning wh. the questn. is arisen), was divers yrs. since inhab. by those of Providence, Portsmouth, and Newport, wh. are interest. in the compl. and that the same is wholly without the bounds of the Mass. patent gr. by his Majesty." This is on the page in Winthrop II. 281, next to that quoted by the modern hist. to explain why Mass. would not take a charter. Deep. as is felt the shame for such deception, that led our governm. to inform Williams of the recent reception (27 Aug. 1645) of a charter, dat. 10 Dec. 1643, giv. to Mass. the Narraganset Bay, and a certain tract of ld. wherein Providence and the isl. of Quidy were includ. as in Palfrey II. 217 is plainly told, we may well exult at the speedy triumph of equity and right in R. I. and Providence Plantations (feeble as that side seem) over the formidab. array of the four provinces confederat. Fiat justitia. Conecticut and Plymouth, wh. were each stimulat. to claim part of this territo. that now forms one of the glorious. old thirteen U.S. (at least, the greater part by one and the remainder by the other) seem easi. to have discern. the futili. of such claims; and believe that Gov. Bradford has not permit. even a word on the right of his col. over R. I. to appear in his copious Hist. The love of justice and a true sense of honor soon brought Gov. Winthrop to relinquish the whole jurisdict. E. of the Pawcatuck riv. It is curious to read the modesty of statement by the recet hist. of R. I. in the instructive pages 118 and 119 of Gov. Arnold. The sanctity of that parchm. was assumed at Providence, in 1859, as it had been in 1645, at Boston; but henceforward I hope, that neither patriotism nor timidity will be called to believe a lie.

See Mather's Hecatompolis. JOHN, Watertown, prob. s. of Edmund, b. at Dedham, in Essex, 26 Dec. 1613, bapt. 4 Jan. foll. bred at Emanuel Coll. Cambridge Univ. where "When his turn came to be a grad." says the Magnalia, "he serious. consider. the subscript. requir. of him, and upon invincib. argum. bec. so dissatisf. therewithal, that, advis. with Mr. Rogers, Dr. Preston, and other emin. persons, wh. commend. his conscient. consider. counsel, he WENT AWAY under the persecut. charact. of a COLLEGE PURITAN." Now I testify that 12 July 1842, I saw at the Univ. of Cambridge, in the origin. the subscript. of John Sherman on tak. his A. B. 1629-30, and repeat. on commenc. A. M. 1633. Too easily was this man presumed to be our John, and aft. large investigat. the correctness of that part of MatherÕs relat. is establish. By suggest. of Rev. Hen. B. Sherman of Newark, N. J. I was led to obtain more minute nad very curious details of THREE other John Shermans at Cambridge Univ. but very short time bef. or aft. this Watertown min. all by the acad. rec. made D. D. and one was even of Emmanuel, and another of the three was from the same Essex Dedham beside; yet all were anti-puritan. He of Dedham was at Queens, tak. A. B. Jan. 1650, and aft. a fellow of Jesus, of wh. coll. he wrote a hist. was arch-deac. of Salisbury, and d. 1671. The Emanuel scholar was a little earlier, A. B. 1642, had been matricul. 1638, four yrs. after the N. E. cry in the wilderness by his namesake began; but the Trinity divine, wh. misled me, matricul. Dec. 1626, of course, something too old for our John, was A. B. Jan. 1630; A. M. 1633; B. D. 1640; and D. D. 1660. He was eject. from his fellowsh. 1650 for refus. to sign the ÒEngagement,Ó wh. was a contriv. by the Independ. or Cromwell party to put down the other. See NealÕs Hist. of Pur. IV. 27, of Ed. 1796. But he was learn. and gave some of his skill to WaltonÕs Polyglot, and my Newark benefactor says, he was of Ipswich, and d. 1663. The yr. aft. tak. his sec. degr. a. the end of Apr. 1634, S. emb. in the Elizabeth at Ipswich, where he had fam. [[80]] relat. and reach Boston in June. At Watertown he, resid. near a yr. and was dism. with others from the ch. at W. 29 May 1635, says Bond, to form a new one on the Conn. riv. tho. we read in the Magn. "not many wks. at W. bef. he rem. upon mature adv. unto New Haven." Now instead of not many wks. we know New Haven was not sett. until more than four yrs. after he arr. at W. Such is the perpetual laxity of narrative in the ecclesiast. histori. of N. E. Beside this, it was not to New Haven that he first went, but to Hartford and Wethersfield, where the attractions of Hooker or Smith were strong eno. and at the latter he obt. gr. of a house lot alongside of that giv. by Rev. Henry Smith to his s. Samuel. Prob. no work in the ch. was early desir. or at least gain. for he was releas. from serv. of watch and ward not until 1640 at May sess. of Gen. Ct. Soon aft. he sold to Thomas Bunce his Wethersfield lot, and rem. to MiIford, join. the ch. there, yet acting only in civ. life, rep. 1643, and preach. for short season in 1645 for the early days of Branford. There he was desir. to sett. as their min. but no ch. was then gather. By first w. Mary (wh d. says the ch. rec. at M. 8 Sept. 1644, he had, says Mather, six ch. wh. is liable to doubt (tho. we are igno. of the date of m. as well as the parents of w.) for it is not prob. that he was m. in Eng. nor in our country bef. 1638, then 24 yrs. old. Four ch. are ment. Mary, b. perhaps in 1639; Bezaleel, bapt. at M. 15 Nov. 1640, H. C. 1661; Daniel, 27 Mar. 1642; and Samuel, 14 Apr. 1644, wh. prob. d. soon. At New Haven he m. sec. w. Mary Launce, late in 1645, a maiden in the fam. of Gov. Eaton, and glad eno. must she have been to escape the perpetual trouble grow. from the unhap. temper of the w. of the Gov. full report of wh. is giv. in Appx. to the charm. Hist. Discours. of Rev. Dr. Bacon. By her he had Samuel, again, bapt. at N. H. 23 Aug. 1646, and next yr. he rem. to Watertown, wh. on req. obt. his dismis. from Milford ch. 8 Nov. 1647. With more than his usual exuberance of invent. Mather makes it" upon the d. of Phillips" that was in July 1644), Watertown offer. a call and he accept. tho. he adds," at the same time one of the chhs. at Boston used their endeav. to bec. the owner of so well talented, a person, and sev. chhs. in London also by lett. much urged him to come over and help them." If this be true (wh. is quite unlike.) for London, we kn. it must be false for B. since there was only one ch. many yrs. later, and in that Cotton and Wilson could wish or rec. no collea. Our sec. ch. where Mather was all his days a min. was not gather. bef. 5 June 1650, and could sett. no pastor bef. Nov. 1655. Stranger than such inexcusa. carelessn. however, is what he tells of this w. call her mo. d. of Darcy, Earl Rivers, one of the Popish Counsellors of Charles I. wh. had no d. that m. a Launce; and next, in mak. this w. bring "no less than twenty [[81]] ch. add. unto the number of six, wh. he had bef." Authority for such improb. he design. his reader should infer, I suppose, from tell. in the begin. of the sentence," by the d. of that Mr. Launce, wh. is yet liv. among us, Sherman had no less than, &c." To this fable full credit was long giv. bec. it obt. the sober sanction of Hutch. I. 19, a relative of Mather, more than once misled by him. But in our day, a desend. of Sherman by this w. aft. bestow. large investigat. with adequate critical skill, puts the result, 1851, with "special wonder" in Geneal. Reg. 307, as not "establ. the Darcy lineage." The writer refers to an emin. Eng. antiquary, wh. had been very slow to reject the tale even of Mather, or to distrust so judicious an auth. as Hutch. but pursu. the inq. long, and wrote me the issue, three yrs. later," aft. all the attent. I have paid to Mr. Willards point, there is no satisfacto. conclus. arr. at; and I am inclin. to think, that there was real. no particle of truth in the report wh. Mather had receiv. and has giv. circul. to." Equal distrust is more natur. felt a. the number of ch. that led our ecclesiast. hist.; to dilate in eight and twenty lines on "such Polytokie," as he tersely or foolishly calls it. Suspicion arises from this fact, that exactly one less than half of the twenty-six ch. giv. to both ws. have never found a name either in rec. or benevol. tradit. See Bond, 432. Yet one more, Benjamin, was prob. lost from the rec. (by wearing out the paper) of b. 23 Apr. 1661, and d. 4 Oct. 1662. By the sec. w. wh. long outliv. him, d. 9 Mar. 1710, we see, then, ten ch. or at most eleven, instead of twenty, were b. and whence could the error arise? Aft. the b. of the first ch. the f. was always at Watertown, there as min. he would make rec. of bapt. of his own, as well as of others; but the rec. is lost, and we have to seek in town rec. for entry of births; and fortunate. his cous. of the same name was many yrs. the clk. Five only are thus found, Abigail, 3 Feb. 1648; Joanna, 3 Sept. 1652; Mary, 5 Mar. 1657; Grace, 10 Mar. 1659; nd John, 17 Mar. 1660; but with more or less confidencc, beside Benjamin, five more can be read in Bond (tho. the first two. are count. by him as of first w.), James, bef. ment. Abiah, Elizabeth, Esther, and Mercy. Sometimes I have suspsect. that the ch. of both contempo. Johns were count. for one by the informant of Mather, and very exact is the rec. of seven of capt. John, part. bef. part. aft. he bec. clk. and so by office bound to kn. bs. ds. and ms. No weight can he denied to such surmise from the fact of differ. names of the ws. of Rev. John and capt. John, for the prefix of respect in his less likely to be omit. than the bapt. name in w. With all his assidu. Bond could not satisfy hims. How Mather got this story of the friutful vine, conject. would be various, if anyways reasona. The eldest d. of this sec. w. could not have told it to him, for she d. the yr. of Mather's bachelor's degr. 20 yrs. bef. his book [[82]] was writ. and her mo. (wh. was liv. aft. the light of the immortal author had shone upon the readers of Magnalia a dozen yrs.) could not be so monstrous. wrong in the tale of her own childr. But if she did give him these myths of her noble descent. and prolific felicity, either she was insane, wh. he had not sanity eno. to discov. or she was irreverent. playing on his bottomless credulity. More prob. however, seems this solntion, that much of what he had heard about Sherman was forgotten, and sev. stories turn. into one, and he tax. his fancy (that was always lively, especial. at a marvel), for some incidents, and confus. the whole. Sherman was adm. freem. of Mass. 1669, and was struck with fever and delirium in the pulpit of his s. at Sudbury where he preach. his last sermon, 5 July 1685 (as, in his diary, is told by Sewall), made his will 6 Aug. and d. two days aft. He made James execor. and (includ. two dec.) names twelve other ch. Mary, the ch. of first w. m. a. 1658, Daniel Allen; Abigail m. 8 Aug. 1661, Rev. Samuel Willard; Mary, of sec. w. m. 27 May 1679, Ellis Barron, jr.; and Mercy m. Apr. 1700, Samuel Barnard. JOHN, Watertown, cous. of the preced. b. at Dedham, Co. Essex, freem. 17 May 1637, by w. Martha, d. of William Palmer (whose wid. hav. m. Roger Porter, by this means came the error, that she wh m. S. was d. of Porter), had John, b. 2 Nov. 1638; Martha, 21 Feb. 1641; Mary, 25 Mar. 1643; Sarah, 17 Jan. 1648; d.at 19 yrs.; Elizabeth 15 Mar. 1649; Joseph, 14 May 1650; and Grace, 20 Dec. 1653, acc. Bond; but Cothren, 680, omits Elizabeth and makes Grace 1655. He was capt. selectman 1637, and oft. aft. town clk. many yrs. from 1648, rep. 1651, 3, and 63, d. 25 Jan. 1691, aged 76. His wid. d. 7 Feb. 1701. Martha m. 26 Sept. 1661, Francis Bowman; Mary m. 18 Jan. 1667, Timothy Hawkins, jr. and d. 6 Nov. foll. Elizabeth m. 20 July 1681, Samuel Gaskell, or Gascoyne of Charlestown. John, Watertown, eldest ch. of the preced. was k. as Bond says (but I presume only so bad. wound. as to d. soon) in the gr. Narraganset bat. with the Ind. 19 Dec. 1675, being of Mosely's comp. left. no issue, proh. never m. JOHN, Marshfield, s. prob. of the first William, m. at Boston, perhaps as sec. w. 25 0ct. 1667, Jane, d. of Walter Hatch, had sev. ch. by ea. w. it is thot. but dates or names are not seen. He may be the man, wh. took o. of fidel. at Dartmouth 1684. JOHN, Stratford, s. of the first Samuel of the same, was disting. in Conn. speaker of the ho. made an Assist. in 1713, for ten yrs.; by w. Elizabeth had Ichabod; Hannah, bapt. July 1680; Samuel, Aug. 1682; Elizabeth Oct. 1684; John, June 1687; Sarah, Jan. 1690; Mary, Mar. 1692; and Susanna, Nov. 1693. He rem. early, perhaps 1673, to Woodbury, where he was town clk. capt. and deac. and d. 13 Dec. 1730. His wid. d. 1 Oct. 1744. JOSEPH, Wethersfield 1639, or earlier, had Samuel, to wh. he gave his ld. at W. and rem. to [[83]] Stamford 1641, says Chapin, Hist. 163,4, tho. Mr. Judd (wh. had bestow. much research on rec. of W., does not agree that the name of Samuel's f. was Joseph, for in the first two generat. he says there was no Joseph in Conn. and Hinman, 72, and prob. Chapin mistook Jo. (the perpet. abbreviat. for John), as Joseph. The fifth lot was, he is confid. set out to Edward, easi. read Edmund. JOSEPH, Watertown, youngest s. of capt. John, a blacksmith, m. 18 Nov. 1673 Elizabeth d. of Edward Winship of Cambridge, had John, b. 11 Jan. 1675, Edward, 2 Sept. 1677; Joseph, 8 Feb. 1680; Samuel, 28 Nov. 1681; but Cothren makes it 1682; Jonathan, 24 Feb. 1684; Ephraim, 16 Mar. 1685 d. soon; Ephriam, again, 20 Sept. 1686; Elizabeth 13 July 1687, unless 1689 be the true yr.; William, 28 July 1692; Sarah, 2 June 1694; and Nathaniel, 19 Sept. 1696; and d. 20 Jan. 1731. William, the youngest but one of these s. was a shoemak. at Newton, and m. Watertown, 3 Sept. 1715, Mehitable Wellington, had as third s. Roger, b. 19 Apr. 1721 at N. forever to be honor. as one of the framers, with Franklin, of the Declarat. of Independ. and of the most sagacious men ever produc. by N. E. MATTHEW, Stratford, br. of Benjamin, had w. Hannah, and d. 1698, leav. David, b. 1692; and Hannah, perhaps more. NATHANIEL, Boston, perhaps s. of Samuel of the same, by w. Grace had Nathaniel, b. 19 Dec. 1659; and, by w. Mary had Mary, 28 Mar. 1665. NATHANIEL, Stratford, br. of Matthew, m. 1680, Mary, perhaps d. of James Phippeny, and d. 1712. PELEG, Portsmouth, R.

Thomas Lawton, had Thomas, b. 8 Aug. 1658; William, 3 Oct. 1659; Daniel, 15 June 1665; Mary, 11 Dec. 1664; Peleg, 8 Oct. 1666; Ann, 30 Apr. 1668; Elizabeth 25 Nov. 1670; Samuel, 16 Oct. 1672; Eber, 20 Oct. 1674; John, 28 Oct. 1676; Benjamin, 15 July 1677; Sarah, 25 Jan. 1680; Isabel, 3 June 1683; and George, 18 Dec. 1687. PHILIP, Roxbury, came in 1633, a single man, freem. 14 May 1634, first on the list aft. Gov. Haynes, m. Sarah Odding, d. of John Porter's w. by former h. went home early, but soon came again, and was led away, says the ch. rec. to familism by Porter, disarm. Nov. 1637, and banish. next yr. went to R.

As secr. he was happy eno. to have a descend. in 1857, prob. in seventh generat. fill. the same post; but I can hardly indicate the line. He had Samson and Samuel, perhaps more. PHILIP, Boston, "apprent. of John Blower," but it will not easi. be learn. wh. was his f. He d. 12 Dec. 1655. RICHARD, Boston, merch. by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 1 Dec. 1635, had two ds.

SAMSON, Portsmouth, R.

SAMUEL, Ipswich, 1636, of importance eno. to be disarm. with only one more of that town, Nov. 1637, as danger. heretic, d. bef. 1660, leav. ch. Samuel, Nathaniel, and Mary Clark, but wh. was the w. is not seen. SAMEL, Boston, husbandiman; perhaps br. of Philip, by w. Grace had Philip, b. 31 Dec. 1637; Martha, 5 Sept. 1639; both bapt. 8 Mar. 1640; Nathaniel, 19 Dec. 1642; Jonathan, 11 Feb. 1644, a. 3 days old; and Philip, d. young. He had join. the ch. 1 Mar. and was adm. freem. 13 May 1640; and his w. join. the ch. 29 Aug. 1641; he d. early in 1645, and in 1652 the Gen. Ct. interfer. in admin. of his est. by the deacons of Boston ch. SAMUEL, Stratford, br. of Rev. John, perhaps did not come so early as 1634, wh. Cothren, 60, assumes, but was aft. 1640 some yrs. at Wethersfield, there had houselot, giv. by his f.; was among first resid. at Stamford, and had sev. ch. b. there; was chos. an Assist. 1662, 3, 4, and aft. the union of the Cols. of Conn. and N. H. 1665-7, but tho. nominat. for 1668, he fail. of the elect. and is no more heard of exc. in project. with others, 1672, settlem. of Woodbury. Cothren says he m. in Eng. Sarah Mitchell, and brot. her hither; but this is to the last degr. improb. for he brings him in 1634, then only 19 yrs. old at most, perhaps only 18, and in the mo. country very few so young were m. beside wh. he calls this sis. of Rev. Jonathan, wh. does not seem to have had such sis. at least we kn. that Richard Mather, a fellow passeng. with Mitchell's f. in 1635, has no refer. to a d. then m. on our side of the water, and f. Mitchell in his will of 1646 names ds. only Susanna and Hannah, no Sarah; and beyond that, our Sherman tribe was from the part of Essex, while the Mitchells were of the W. Riding of Yorksh. on the edge of Lancash. opposite sides of the kingdom, between wh. two hundred and thirty yrs. ago intercourse was very rare. Reconciliat. of the principal fact (if it be true) may be gain. by a resona. conject. that the m. tho. it could hard. have occur. in Eng. was some yrs. aft. com. of the parties hither. The dates of b. of their ch. give further evid. as Cothren hims. furnish. them, of his error, as the earliest is 1641, and the latest 1665, wh. is beyond the usual result of a m. in 1634. His roll, with slight correction, is: Samuel, b. 19 Jan. [[85]] 1641; Theophilus, 28 Oct. 1643; Matthew, 21 Oct. 1645; Edmund, 4 Dec. 1647; John, 8 Feb. 1651; Sarah, 8 Feb. 1654; Nathaniel, 21 Mar. 1657; Benjamin, 29 Mar. 1662; and Daniel (wh. careful Mr. Judd made David) 15 Apr. 1665. Some ground for support of the tradit. of m. with the d. of Mitchell may appear in two of the names of these ch. Matthew and Sarah; but I must adher to my conject. a. the time. When he d. might seem as hard to settle, as his date of m. Cothren tells, that he d. bef. Oct. 1684, but it was prob. fifteen yrs. later, at least we kn. that div. of his est. among heirs, whose lang. implies recent dec. of their ancest. was made Sept. 1700, and deeds by him as late as 1694 can be read. SAMUEL, Boston, s. perhaps of Samuel of Ipswich, by w. Naomi had Nathaniel, b. 19 Dec. 1659; Samuel, 3 Oct. 1661, d. soon; and Samuel, again, 24 Apr. 1664.

Perhaps he had former w. Sarah, that d. at Marshfield July 1680. THEOPHILUS, Stratford 1669, was br. of the sec. Samuel of the same, and a man of distinct. d. early in 1712; but Cothren gives him no w. or ch. THOMAS, Ipswich 1638. WILLIAM, Plymouth 1632, may have come in 1629, for to one of the name was giv. by our Gov. and Comp. in London, liberty to bring in his kine from Northampton in fourteen days from 26 Feb. doubtless to be emb. in the fleet with Higginson.

I dare to adopt; Sarah, b. 1649, wh. was not bapt. for eleven yrs.; Henry, 26 Apr. 1653, says one of the copies of town rec. but an older one, 1654, and he, I suppose, d. young; Mehitable, wh. d. 29 July 1657; Jonathan, 18 Nov. 1656, wh. d. 22 July 1657; Abigail, 3 Jan. 1658; Bethia, 30 Jan. 1659; Elizabeth again, 10 Apr. 1660, bapt. at 5 days with three sis. bef. ment.

His will, of 17 of that mo. pro. 4 Aug. foll. aft. provid. for his w. made dispos. of large prop. to ch. Samuel, Sarah, Abigail, Bethia, and Elizabeth and provides for Elizabeth wid. of his br. Edward of London, and the seven ch. Jonathan, Mary, Ebenezer, Epaphras, Silas, Elizabeth and Lydia, large pt. of whose est. he held in tr.; gave. £50 to the ch. and £50., with this curious proviso, for "leave that I may be bur. in the tomb wherein my former w. Elinor S. was bur. otherwise I give nothing." A better proof of his sense is a bequest of £10., "token of my love," to Gold, Osborn, and others, of the Bapt. ch. worship. at Noddle's isl. A [[91]] copy of the will of his br. Edward, that sheds some light on our side of the water, sent from the Prerogative Ct. of the. Archbp. of Canterbury, may be read in our Prob. rec. I. 390. JONATHAN, Boston 1648, eldest s. of Edward of Bednal Green, wh. was elder br. of the preced. m. Mary d. of Peter Oliver, had Mary and James tw. b. 30 Oct. 1667; Sarah, 23 Nov. 1669; and Samuel, 10 Dec. 1671; ar. co. 1665; d. 1673. His wid. m. Nathaniel Williams; d. Sarah m. John Clark, Esq. ROBERT, Boston, had John, bapt. 28 May 1648, "a. six wks. old," says the ch. rec. but tho. the ancient copy calls him "s. of our br. Robert I feel compell. aft. long investigat. to say, that it seems to be mistake, inasmuch as there was no br. Robert S. of our ch. nor does the town rec. give any such person. To be sure the ch. and town rec. in the orig. for many early yrs. are both lost, and the copies are of various value; that of the ch. very far superior to the town copy, especisally as gaps in 1647, 8, and 9 are num. Now, since the name of f. is not seen in any time bef. nor for a long success. of yrs. aft. if ever, my conject. is, that John, the ch. bapt. on that day, was s. of Henry, and d. soon. That this may not appear too hazaradous a guess, I beg, the student of our early manners to obs. that Henry had brot. to bapt. his three ch. in a short time aft. their sev. births; but of six succeed. ch. no one was brot. up to the font bef. the fifth day aft. b. of a seventh, and then the rec. has this strange relat.: on 15 Apr. 1660, were bapt. ch. of our br. Henry Shrimpton, Sarah, aged eleven yrs.; Abigail, two yrs.; Bethia, one yr.; and Elizabeth at five days. The three intermed. were, I presume, d. and my excuse for omission of such ordinance in the six cases, is, that the f. was too much impress. with the d. of his s. John. If in opposit. to this conject. it be suggest. that Henry had deriv. prejudice against the ceremony of inf. bapt. the inq. natural. springs up, if his conscient. scruple restrain. him in 1649, and 1653, and 1654, and 1656, and 1658, and 1659, why should it have relax. in 1660? Still,if my disesteem of the copy in the old engrossing hand that serves for first ch. rec. seem too confident, I must be excus. from abundant experience of the errors in such docum. Our town rec. as it is call. (I mean the oldest MS. venerat. by me, as the County Recorder's Copy from the lost transcript of the lost orig. rec. of the town clk. of the writs) asserts falsely, that "Elinor, the d. of Henry Shrimpton and of his w. Mary, dec. 9 Mar. 1652," on p. 128 whereas Mary was the ch. not the w. and Elinor was the w wh. had three or four ch. aft. that date of d. and there was no ch. nam. Elinor, that we hear of. SAMUEL, Boston, s. of Henry, freem. 1673, got off by fine of L10. from serv. same yr. as constable, to wh. office he was then chos.; had by w. Elizabeth d. of wid. Elizabeth Roberets of London, Mary, b. 4 Dec. 1666; Martha, 21 Jan. 1671; Samuel, 20 Apr. 1673; and Elizabeth [[92]] again, 21 Apr. 1674; yet, perhaps, Samuel is the only ch. that liv. long. He was of ar. co. 1670, and its capt. 1694, one of the Counc. to Andros 1687, but not a partaker in his tyranny; one of the Counc. of Safety 1689, and head of the regim. of Suffk. and d. 9 Feb. 1698, of apoplexy.

The print. vol. prepar. with exempla. devot. makes them all to be b. at Boston, but a fair infer. is against it, as no rec. is found bef. 1714, and then the whole six are brot. into our town rec.

JOSEPH, Cambridge, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. came with his f. in inf. m. 5 Dec. 1660, Jemima, d. of Andrew Belcher the first of the same, wh. d. a. 1675, had sev. ch. of wh.

But others there were, as the fam. tradit. makes two s. lost at sea; and fully confirm. is it by the fact, that aft. the d. of w. in the begin. of Philip's war, and aft. m. of sec. w. he made deed of trust, 7 Nov. 1681, to Andrew Belcher, their uncle, in favor of his s.

Jemima, m. 2 Dec. 1687, John Hall; of Medford; and Elizabeth m. 18 Nov. 1685, Samuel Green, jr. of Boston. In Milford a Joseph is nam. 1648; but I think it may be a mistake for 1673.

Eight of this name had, in 1852, been gr. at Yale. SILLIIAM, DANIEL, Fairfield, 1658, had, it is said, for first w. Peaceable, wid. of John Egleton, (wh. d. 1659); and tho. she d. bef. 5 July 1661, yet tradit. tells that there were no ch. of the sec. m. with Hannah, wid. of Hendrick Hendrickson. His ch. Daniel, Thomas, and Robert, were all Peaceable's; and he d. 1690, it is thot. bec. admin. of his est. was grant. 13 Jan. 1691. DANIEL, Fairfield s. of the preced. by w. Abigail had Daniel, Peacable, Abigail, John, Jemima, and Mary; but no dates of b. can be found; and he d. 1697.

C. 1727, whose descend. have confer. gr. honor on the State; and d. 1748. Fam. tradit. makes the first Daniel come from Holland; and the deravat. is quite distinct from the city of Lucca, in Italy, in the early day of the Protestant reformat. thro. Geneva, where had sett. the f. of one Daniel. This Daniel was chos. 1575 into the Council of 200 for that Republic. Sometimes in fam. tradit. there is a basis of truth, however distort. SILLIS.

BENJAMIN, Haeverhill, s. of Richard, perhaps his youngest, sw. alleg. the same day with Amos m. 4 Apr. 1678, Mary Stockbridge, had Susanna, b. 27 Jan. foll.; Richard, 16 Mar. 1681; Jonathan, 28 Aug. 1683; John, 6 July 1686; Broughton, 25 Mar. 1689; Joseph, 9 Feb. 1693; and Mary, 14 July 1695. JONATHAN, Haverhill, prob. br. of the preced. in 1663 had w. Mary. NATHANIEL, Haverhill, br. of Benjamin, sw. alleg. the same day with him, m. 22 Dec. 1673, Sarah Belknap, perhaps d. of Abraham the first, had: John, b. 7 May 1675; Jonathan, 18 Nov. 1678, d. in few days; Sarah 23 Oct. 1679; Susanna, 19 Sept. 1681, Richard, 5 Aug. 1683, perhaps that one k. by the Ind. 19 Aug. 1707, at Lancaster; Hannah, 23 May 1685; Ebenezer, 18 June 1687; and ano. 20 Aug. 1689; but the f. was k. by the Ind. 7 days bef. RICHARD, Salem 1637, rem. bef. join. the ch. to Newbury, there was freem. 7 Sept. 1638, may have had sev. ch. b. there bef. rem. to Salisbury in 1645 or aft. but there are rec. by w.

He was a selectman in 1650, tax. decently for the supp. of min. yet gone in 1652 to Haverhill, there, by w. Susanna Cooke, says Barry, had Benjamin, k. 4 Apr. 1656. Coffin says, he had John, that is perhaps the same as Jonathan. Eunice m. at Andover, 6 Jan. 1659, Thomas Eaton. His w. d. 11 Apr. 1682, and he d. 25 Oct. 1687, in the 102d yr. if the repts. may be accept. RICHARD, New London 1686, wh. may have been s. or gr.s. of the preced. d. 16 Oct. 1711, leav. nine ch. some of wh. were in Carolina, but the only kn. names are Richard, William, Waitstill, and beside a d. wh. m. Samuel Latham. SINNET, SENNOT, or SENNITT, JOHN, Boston, mariner, s. of Walter, appears to own est. from 1667 to 1676. WALTER, Boston, by w. Mary, wh. join. our ch. 23 May 1647, had Mary, b. 19 Nov. 1640; Elizabeth 23 June 1642, d. soon; John, 10 July 1643; and on Sunday aft. the adm. of his w. had bapt.

His eldest d. Elizabeth m. Jeremiah Clark. JAMES, Dartmouth, 1684, was, perhaps, br. of the preced. SIVERNS, JOHN, Lynn, had John, b. 22 Mar. 1684. Perhaps this may be Severance of Salisbury. SKATE, JOHN, Weymouth, 1658, is nam. by Farmer; but I find no such name, unless it mean him wh. at Boston had, by w. Sarah, John, and John, again, b. 25 Apr. 1660. See SCATE. It may be the same person as the foll. SKEATH, JOHN, Boston 1674 liv. long, as from his will of May 1700, pro. 22 Jan. 1708, is clearly discern. It gives to w. Sarah, ds. Sarah Bradshaw, Rebecca Allen, Mary, and Joanna S. beside gr.ch. Joseph, and Hannah, and makes w. and d. Mary excors. See Scathe. SKEEL, JOHN, Boston, Stratford, m. Hannah, d. of Roger Terrill of the same, had John, and Hannah, bapt. 10 Nov. 1678, of wh. John d. soon; John, again, Nov. 1679; Thomas, 23 Apr. 1682; Elizabeth 20 Apr. 1683; Abigail, 9 May 1686; and Ephraim, July 1689; had rem. to Woodbury 1682; perhaps even bef. any of these ch. Hannah m. 3 Mar. 1697, Benjamin Hicock. SKEETH, WILLIAM, of Charlestown, or Woburn, d. a. 1672, for his inv. was then ret. in Middlesex by Lawrence Dowese and Josiah Convers, wh. were of those two towns. SKELLING, THOMAS, Salem 1643, had then, says Felt, a gr. of ld. But. prob. that was inadeq. inducem. to leave Gloucester where he had liv. some yrs. and by w. Deborah had Deborah, b. 22 Aug. 1640, or 1648, rem. perhaps, to Falmouth 1651, and own. est. in Maine; but was soon back, yet d. at F. 1667; in his will, of 14 Nov. 1666, nam. s. Thomas and John. See Skilling. THOMAS, Falmouth, eldest s. of the preced. says Babson, m. 1654, Mary Lewis, d. of George of the same, had John, and Benjamin, and d. at Salem, 30 Dec. His wid. m. Jotham Lewis; and next a. Wilkins, says Mr. Willis, and in 1732 was of Salem 78 yrs old. SKELTON, BENJAMIN, Salem, nam. 1639, when his s. John was bapt. and NATHANIEL, Salem 1648, when his s. John was bapt. are in the list of sett. but not ch. mem. Strange as it seems, no more is told of either; and to larger or less credulity must be left the opin. whether one or both were ch. of Rev. Samuel. SAMUEL, Salem, came from Co. Lincoln, in 1629, arr. with w. and ch. three or four, in the George, 29 June, in co. with Samuel Sharpe, hav. sail. 4 May from Isle of Wight. He was b. 1584, bred at Clare Hall, Cambr. Univ. where he had his degr. 1611 and 1614; nam. by the Gov. and Comp. at London to be of the Counc. to Capt. Endicot, wh. they appoint. Gov. of the Planta. as they heard that E. had "formerly receiv. much good by his ministry;" [[104]] but prob. he never was sw. for the arrest of his assoc. the Browns, bef. com. of the commiss. would prevent organiz. or action. But in the pulpit his right as pastor, as well as that of Higginson, for teacher, was fix. 6 Aug. 1629. Desir. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, he was rec. 18 May foll. His w. d. 15 Mar. 1631, and prob. he took ano. w. if the ord. of Court, June 1638, with the consent of Mrs. Baggerly," that the incr. of his "cattle shd. b. div. acc. to Mr. Skelton's will; and that the goods and household stuff wh. belong to the three eldest ch. shd. be div. by some of the ch." be constr. to mean, that he left a younger ch. and we might infer, that his. wid. had tak. new h. Mr. Baggerly. But no such name is found in Felt's list of ch. memb. of Salem, nor indeed does any Skelton appear there, but the pastor. He rec. in July 1632 gr. of four lots of ld. of various quantity; from the Col. besides what the town may have gr. if any, tho. no such benefact. to either him or Higginson, or any ch. of either is ment. He d. 2 Aug. 1634, and much do we regret the loss of his will, that perhaps would have nam. the childr. In his Ann. II. 568, Mr. Felt explains the denial to Gov. Winthrop, Isaac Johnson, and compan. of libert. to unite in the Lord's Supper, or to have a ch. bapt. for wh. Cotton, then at home express. his surpr. and regr. No wonder the Browns were driv. away, when these later comers could not by Mr. Skelton be adm. to his communion as "not memb. of reformed chhs." The great master of us all would gladly have rec. these men; but the rigid separatists had sterner sense of duty. So extreme was their repugn. to the formulary, wh. they had onced used in their weekly worsh. that they would not longer believe, in the communion of saints. SAMUEL, Salem, s. prob. of the preced. b. in Eng. sold ld. in S. Feb. 1644, to lieut. Richard Davenport. SKERRY, EPHRAIM, Salem, s. of the first Henry, m. Sept. 1671, Martha Mellard (if Essex Inst. III. 144 has correct spell.) had Hannah, b. 11 July foll.; Martha, 13 July 1674; and he d. 11 Oct. 1676. FRANCIS, Salem 1637 freem. 17 May of that yr.; was, it is said, aged near 84 at his d. 1692. His wid. d. 10 Aug. of the same yr. HENRY, Salem, perhaps br. of the preced. came from. Yarmouth, in Norfk. Apr. 1637, cordwainer, aged 31, with w. Elizabeth one ch. Henry, and one apparent. Edmund Towne, aged 18. See 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. 97, or Geneal. Reg. XIV. 325. He was a freem. Mar. 1638; had Elizabeth bapt. that mo.; Mary, Sept. 1640; Ephraim, 26 Mar. 1643; and John, 3 June 1649; he car. a prisoner, 1649, to Boston, prob. as a constable, and was liv. 1696, then call. 89 yrs. old, d. 12 Apr. 1697; and in Felt's ch. list of 1645 is Bridget, wh. may have been w. of him or Francis. HENRY, Salem, s. of the preced. m. 9 Nov. 1665, Priscilla, d. of the first Henry Lunt, had Francis, b. 25 Nov. 1666; Ann, 14 June 1669; Priscilla, 13 July 1671; was freem. 1677; d. 30 Aug. 1691; and his wid. Elizabeth d. 6 Mar. 1693. SKIDMORE, or SKIDMER, JAMES, Boston 1636, appears as agent for John Winthrop of Conn. JOHN, perhaps of Cambridge, was fin. 1641, for sale of strong water to Ind. THOMAS, Cambridge 1642, had, in 1636, been engag. for John, Winthrop in his prepar. for plant. at Saybrook; by w. Ellen had John, b. 11 Apr. 1643; and Joseph; may have been at Lancaster at its early sett. 1653, but certain. bef. and aft. that [[105]] date at New London, and prob. 1672 at Huntington, L. I. He had also, Dorothy, wh. m. 20 July 1652, Hugh Griffin. On 19 June 1667 he sign. contr. with Joanna, wid. of Nathaniel Baldwin, wh. had been wid. of Richard Westcoat, by wh. she should have power to devise her prop. to John, Daniel, Joanna, and Abigail, her ch. by said Richard W. and to Sarah, Deborah, and Samuel, her ch. by said Nathaniel B. she intend. to m. said Thomas S. SKIFF, BENJAMIN, Chilmark 1676, m. 20 Feb. 1680, Hannah, whose surname may have been Merry. Of him I hear no more, but that in 1704 he and others were employ. by Gov. Dudley in an import. trust. JAMES, Sandwich 1643-63, had come from Lynn a. 1637, was rep. 1645 and 13 yrs. more, had Bathshua, b. 21 Apr. 1648, wh. m. perhaps in 1666, Shearjashub Bourne; Mary, 24 Mar. 1650; perhaps that Patience wh. m. 26 Oct. 1675, Elisha Bourne. He took sec. w. 18 Nov. 1659, Elizabeth Nabor. JAMES, Nantucket, prob. s. of the preced. m. Sarah, d. of Robert Barnard, had Nathaniel, Patience, Mary, Hannah, Beulah, and Sarah. He rem. to Tisbury.

Hepzibah Codman, perhaps d. of Robert, had James, b. 10 Mar. 1689; Benjamin, 29 Apr. 1691; Stephen, 26 May 1693; Mary, 20 May 1695; beside Elizabeth of uncert. date. His sec. w. m. Feb. 1698, Mary Chipman, d. of John, had Sarah; Mary, 5 July 1701; Samuel, 24 Dec. 1703; John, 22 Aug. 1705; and Joseph, 18 Nov. 1707; and d. 19 July 1726, aged 70. STEPHEN, Sandwich 1667, was rep. 1676 and serv. yrs. aft. See Baylies. An Elizabeth Skaffe, the Col. Rec. says, was bur. at Rehoboth, 25 June 1676. I suppose it means Skiff. SKILLING, SKILLIN, or SKILLINGS, JOHN, Falmouth 1651 may have been s. of Thomas. His wid. rem. 1688, to Portsmouth. THOMAS, Salem 1643, may have belong. rather to Gloucester, where he was in 1642, there, perhaps, had Thomas, b. Nov. 1643; and Abigail, wh. m. 18 Nov. 1670, John Curney, Carney, or Gurny. Perhaps both f. and s. were of Falmouth in 1665. SKILLINGER, or STILLINGER, JACOB, a Dutchman, at New London 1661, had been at New Haven, was liv. 1666, and had a w. SKINNER, ABRAHAM, Malden, s. of the first Thomas, by w. Hannah had Abraham, b. 8 Apr. 1681; Thomas, 7 Dec. 1688; and Mary, Sept. 1690. His wid. d. 14 Jan. 1726. EDWARD, Cambridge, d. early, perhaps in 1639, perhaps in 1641, as the articles in Geneal. Reg. II. 103, and III. 81, seem discord. By his will he gave half of his est. to the ch. of C. and half to Mr. Robert Ibbit of Cambridge, in Old Eng. but calls no w. ch. or other relat. so that we may infer that he was bach. if not also, that he came from Co. Cambridge. FRANCIS, was command. of the fort at Pemaquid, May 1683, as in Geneal. Reg. XI. 33. JOHN, Hartford 1639, had w. Mary, d. of Joseph Loomis, wh. m. 13 Nov. 1651, Owen Tudor, prob. by her had John, wh. is among freem. of 1669. JOHN, Hartford, s.of the preced. had Mary, 1 Dec. 1664; John, 1 Mar. 1667; Joseph, 26 Aug. 1669; Nathaniel, 5 Apr. 1672; Richard, 16 Jan. 1674; Sarah, 4 Nov. 1677; and Thomas, 15 Nov. 1680. JOSEPH, Windsor, m. 5 Apr. 1666, Mary, d. of William Filley of the same, had Mary, b. 22 Sept. 1667; and Elizabeth 23 Jan. 1669; was freem. 1669, and next yr. of Simsbury. RICHARD, perhaps of Hartford 1648, may have been f. or br. of John and Joseph. Perhaps his was that wid. Mary S. wh. m. 13 Nov. 1651, Owen Tudor. THOMAS, Malden, came from Chichester, in Co. Sussex, where by w. Mary, were b. his s. Thomas, 25 July 1645; and Abraham, 29 Sept. 1649; and soon aft. prob. for first time, he arr. here. His w. Mary d. 9 Apr. 1671. THOMAS, Boston, baker, bot. est. 1673, near the Exchange, was freem. 1690. THOMAS, Malden, s. of the first Thomas, b. in Eng. by w. Mary, d. of Richard Pratt of the same, had Thomas, b. Nov. 1668; and he m. 22 Dec. 1669, Mary, d. [[106]] of Thomas Gould, had John, Apr. 1673; Richard, 3 Jan. 1676; beside Nathaniel, 27 Mar. 1686, I presume, for the transcrib. from the rec. of b. in Geneal. Reg. VI. 336, has Jan. and here, prob. as in most of the dates, has mistak. the meanings of the numeral for the month; and Abigail, 17 Feb. 1691, was freem. 1690, and d. 2 Mar. 1704. WALTER, Salem 1680. Of this name, Farmer says, there had been gr. in 1829, five at Yale, three at Harv. and six at other N. E. CoIl. SKIPPER, or SKEPPAR, THEOPHILUS, Lynn, a minor, hav. demand of £51. against Benjamin Keayne, payab. on his com. of age, and Rev. John Cotton and Rev. Thomas Cobbett, his guardians in 1646, interfer. for his security. A Jane S. of Boston, spinster, in Jan. 1652, obt. secur. for £50. from Valentine Hill of Dover in comp. with Rev. Thomas Cobbett and Joshua Scottow, so that I infer a relat. betw. this maiden and Theophilus, prob. br. and sis. She m. 19 Aug. 1653, Abraham Brown. Perhaps Catharine of L. was ano. sis. SKOULING, ROBERT, Hingham, came 1638, from old Hingham, with Thomas Cooper, and his fam. perhaps as serv. in the Diligent, but certain. he had no gr. of ld. there, nor is his name ever found again. SKULLARD. See Scullard. SLACK, WILLIAM, Weymouth, by w. Mary had Thomas, b. 5 July 1690. SLADE, WILLIAM, New Port adm. freem. 1659. See R. I. Hist. Coll. III. 251.

GEORGE, Lynn 1637, rem. to Sandwich, yet is not found among men able to bear arms in 1643; prob. went to Stamford bef. 1644, where were, 1669, propound. for freem. he with s. Eleazer, and John. He had a d. wh. m. John Gould, and these three ch. seem to be all he had when his will was made. He d. 17 Feb. 1695. JOHN, Stamford, s. of the preced. m. 12 Nov. 1663, Sarah, d. of William Tuttle of New Haven, had John, b. 1664; Sarah, 1667; and Jonathan, 1670. His w. was k. 17 Nov. 1676, with an axe, by her br.

JOSIAH, Marshfield, possib. but not prob. s. of George, m. 12 Mar. 1679, Mary Williamson. THOMAS, Stamford, had gr. of houselot in 1641, but did not contin. there to enjoy it.

FRANCIS, the freem. of 17 Apr. 1637, was a propr. Bond thinks, in Watertown, that yr. but not in 1642, and in my opin. prob. that Reading man, wh. d. 20 Mar. 1601, then call. sen. wh. was first, perhaps, of Lynn. His will, made six days bef. ment. without nam. w. s. John, and Benjamin, and gr. d. Mary S. FRANCIS, Roxbury, one of the first mem. of the ch. freem. 18 May 1631, so that we may infer, that he came in one of the fleet with Winthrop and, as the town rec. ment. that his s. Andrew, d. or was bur. 15 Mar. 1640, whose b. is not told, it is thot. he [[113]] brot. w. and fam. but no more can be deriv. as unhap. the ch. rec. of bapt. or d. begin. in Dec. 1641, more than nine yrs. aft. its orig. He serv. 28 Sept. 1630 on the first inq. held by coroner, and by their find. Walter Palmer was chged. with manslaughter, for death of Austen Bratcher, of wh. he was acq. He liv. most of his days in Boston, prob. to practise better his trade of cardmaker, and by twelve sev. deeds to or from him of ld. in B. I have tracked him down to Jan. 1667. It may be very difficult to determine, whether F. the glazier, had any ch. or how old he was, when he d. but his br. Joseph, the saddler, had admin. of his est. 12 Aug. 1690. His w. Elizabeth (by wh. in B. he had John, b. 30 Aug. 1644; Joseph, 24 Aug. 1646; Mercy, wh. d. 4 Sept. 1652; Sarah, b. 6 May 1655; Benjamin 10 Apr. 16O8; and Mary, 18 July 1663); join. Boston ch. 31 May 1646, and his d. Elizabeth m. 1656, James Sanford. But ano. FRANCIs, prob. s. of this Roxbury man, may have been f. of the two 1ast ment. ch. as I presume; and had earlier, in R. Sarah, b. 6 May 165a; tho. it is not impossib. that one was f. of all. FRANCIS, Hingham, drew his house lot, 18 Sept. 1635, freem. 13 May 1640, rem. says Lincoln, to Taunton, where his w. d. 6 Jan. 1666. There he, or one of this name was liv. 1679. Inscript. at T. on gr. st. are seen of Elizabeth "aged 40, d. 31 Jan. 1687;" and of Damaris "aged 21, d. 29 Oct. 1689." FRANCIS, Reading, perhaps s. of the first Francis of the same, freem. 1691, and not prob. that deac. wh. d. says Eaton, 1744. GEORGE, Salem 1635, had then gr. of ld. of wh. or other he contin. propr. perhaps was of Ipswich 1648, and soon back to S. bef. 1663. GEORGE, New Haven 1639-47, was not on the list of freem. there 22 yrs. aft. At N. H. by w. Sarah he had Sarah, and Martha, perhaps tw. b. 1642; Hannah, 1644; but all three, in the right of their mo. bapt. 14 Dec. 1645; Mercy, 22 Feb. 1646; John, 18 Apr. 1647; Elizabeth 16 Sept. 1649; Samuel, b. 4 Dec. 1651; Ebenezer, 15 Nov. 1653; Joseph, 14 Aug. 1655; and Nathan, 27 Dec. 1656. He d. 17 May 1662, and descend. have been num. and hon. Sarah m. 1661, John Clark; Hannah m. 1663, Stephen Bradley of Guilford; Mercy m. 1669, John Benham; and Elizabeth m. 13 Nov. 1669, John Hall of Guilford. Yet some uncert. attends the filiation of sev. of these ch. bec. ano. Sarah, w. of Nehemiah, was engag. in the same pious work of bring. ch. to bapt. in the same yr. nearly. GEORGE, Dover 1645, came, perhaps, from the city of Salisbury, a tailor, in the James, from Southampton, Apr. arr. June 1635, unless this array of circumstance pertain rather to the Salem man, for a fam. tradit. says, this man came from Plymouth, in Devon of Boston, when there were only a few huts, and not one cellar dug;" was town clk. in 1646 had commiss. from Mass. and at the head of the tax list 1648; had Joseph, b. 1640; and, as Mr. [[114]] Quint thinks, John, and James. His wid. he says, m. Monday, perhaps Henry of Salisbury, and next Mason. GILES, Hartford 1639, had Joanna, bapt. there 25 Mar. 1649; was of the earliest sett. at New London, but his gr. of 1648 was soon sold or forfeit. by non. resid. and he was of Fairfield 1651, there d. 1669. He left sec. w. Eunice, not mo. of his ch. wh. had been wid. of Jonathan Porter of Huntington, L. I.; three s. Samuel, Eleazer, and John; three ds. Elian, if that be a possib. name; Elizabeth Jackson; and Joanna Gray, nam. in his will of 10 Sept. 1669. HENRY, Dorchester, came in the fleet with Winthrop perhaps req. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was rec. 18 May foll. may be thot. the gent. wh. with Ludlow, Pynchon, and others, was commis. in Mar. 1636 by Mass. to govern the first sett. on Conn. and act. at Hartford lG38. See Mass. Col. Rec. I. 170, with Conn. Col. Rec. I. 17; but whether he was or not, the Rev. HENRY, first min. of Wethersfield, I cannot confidently decide. On the whole, I conclude, since Mather puts the Wethersfield min. into his first classis (as of those, in the actual exercise of their min. bef. they left Eng.), that this man was only in civ. life, for he is not dignif. with the prefix Mr. and would never seem to be looked on as cleric. in Mass., and prob. the min. of Wethersfield came not for five, or even six, yrs. more. See Winth's. letter of June 1636 to his s. John, Gov. of the new planta. in Hist. I. Appx. A. 60 of the Ed. 1853. He, in 1636, rem. to Springfield with Pynchon; was s. by a former h. of that wid. Sanford wh. had m. Pynchon, and this s. had m. his P's. d. Ann, I suppose bef. the m. of his mo. with the f. of his w. possib. bef. they, any of them, came from Eng. to confound tbe two, if there were not three (wh. seems improb.) Henry Smiths. I design always to put the names in the order of their com. to our country, so that Rev. Henry, tho. older, must follow the Springfield man. Felt has, in his Eccles. Hist. of N. E. 253, made the min. wh. was receiv. of the ch. of Charlestown in midsum. of 1637, one of the commission to govern the Conn. planta. in 1636, with Ludlow, Steele, Pynchon and others, when we may feel sure, that it was Pynchon's s. in law wh. had that honor; as also, that the Wethersfield min. was at the date of 1636 in his native land, had Ann, and Mary, wh. were b. bef. his rem. the latter, bur. at S. 15 Nov. 1641; Martha, b. 31 July 1641; Mary, again, 7, bapt. 12 Mar. 1643; Elizabeth 22, bapt. 27 Oct. 1644; Margaret, 26 Apr. 1646, d. at two yrs.; Sarah, 6 Oct. 1647, a. soon; Margaret, again, 1 Nov. 1648; Rebecca, 1 Apr. 1650; Samuel, 23 June 1651, d. next yr.; and Abigail, 10 Feb. 1653; was rep. 1651, and, with his min. Rev. George Moxon, prob. in disgust at the proceed. against his f.-in-law, went home 1653. Prob. most of the ch. went with the f. but Mary perhaps contin. here with her uncle Pynchon, and m. 15 Apr. 1665, Richard Lord of Hartford; [[115]] and Ann, wh. we may be sure, was the first b. m. 9 Nov. 1651, John Allyn of Hartford, the famous Secr. Other ch. he may have had, either bef. or aft. leav. S. but where Farmer found his Elisha, is hard to guess. He seems to be as well entit. as the Watertown Henry, to be thot. the freem. of 18 May 1631, prob. better. Since reach. the conclus. that my Dorchester Henry is the same as he, wh. Farmer in MS. had thot. of Watertown, and by his two lines drove me to many wks. research, I have the gratification of ascertain. from Dr. Bond's untir. investigat. that at Watertown was no Henry Smith at all. HENRY, Charlestown, join. the ch. with w. Dorothy, 10 July 1637, prok. rem. soon. He may have been passeng. in the Elizabeth, 1635, without wishing his name to appear at the custom ho. as no min. could be suf. to emb. at least we kn. that ship brot. Dorothy, aged 40; d. Mary 10, and John, 19; most likely he was the Wethersfield min. Very critical caution, however, is requisite, about the concomitants of the rev. gent. whose will, of 8 May 1648, refers, without nam. them, to two ds. m. Of course they were b. in Eng. It also names s. Peregrine, wh. may not have been b. on this side of the water, certain. was older than Samuel, but whether s. of the w. Dorothy, or not, is uncert. Of that Dorothy, the w. we may be very sure, that she was his sec. w. not mo. of Mary, or John, fellow passeng. with her. For the elder ds. we are not sure of the h.'s, unless of Rebecca. we judge her w. of Samuel Smith of New London. See Caulkin's Hist. of N. L. 151. She was divorc. for his desertion, and m. 1669, Nathaniel Bowman. At least the age of this w. at Charlestown, if she be the passeng. in the Elizabeth, is very much overrat. perhaps fifteen yrs. if not more; for bef. his rem. to W. he had Dorothy, b. 1636, or 7; and at W. had Samuel, 27 Jan. 1639; Joanna, 25 Dec. 1641; Noah, 25 Feb. 1644, d. young; and Elizabeth perhaps posthum. 25 Aug. 1648. The min. of W. had a long controv. with a part of his people, whereby the peace of that whole commonwealth was disturb. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 97 and 98. It seems only to have terminat. by his d. 1648. In his will, Ib. 502, he speaks of his large fam. ment. only s. Samuel, Perigrine, wh. was d.

Mr. Clap thinks he was past mid. age, when he came, and my inq. are unsatisf. a. him. JOHN, Maine 1640, one of the gr. jury at the first Gen. Court of Sir Ferdinando Gorges, in that yr. "sw. to inq. for our Sovereign Lord the K. and the Lord of this Province." Perhaps he was of Kiltery, aft. as we kn. he was, in 1635, of Saco. JOHN, Providence, one of the hundred first purch. may have been of Salem 1631 or 2, one of the friends of Roger Williams, wh. calls him a merch. perhaps, but not very likely the freem. of 4 Mar. 1633, and banish. at the Court Sept. 1635, for "divers dangerous opin. wh. he holdeth and hath divulg." His name is always Smyth, and he bec. one of the heads of the Col. of R. I. aft. rem. to Warwick, the presid. of R. I. chos. to succeed Williams in 1649. In the new chart. of the k.

JOHN, Watertown 1631, perhaps the freem. of 25 May 1636 (whose w. Isabel d. or was bur. 12 July 1639, aged 60, as Dr. Bond says), may have been f. of John, Thomas, and Francis, sometimes nam. of W. perhaps of others, but all b. in Eng. and, as Bond thinks, rem. to Lancaster, and d. there, yet I think it more prob. that it was a younger man. JONN, Taunton, one of the first purch. 1637. JOHN, Plymouth 1643, then call. senr. was one of the first sett. at Eastham; but we ask in vain as to his fam. or time of d. and are left to infer that, tho. he was sen. in the list of those able to bear arrns, John jun. was not his s. as he did not accomp. the sen. to Eastham, and it may equally be doubt. whether he was f. of [[119]] either the sec. or third John of Eastham, or of Samuel of the same. JOHN, Weymouth, may have been the freem. of 17 Apr. 1637, caus. gr. trouble a. ch. matters, at tbe captious time of antinom. schism, favor Rev. Robert Lenthall 1638, for wh. he was fin. £20. and imprison. and as L. soon withdrew to Newport, I suppose S. follow. him.

JOHN, Meaford 1638. JOHN, Newport 1639, may have cont. there and be found on their list of freem. 1655; but may be the one at Providence, distin,. as the miller, wh. had Joseph, and engag. his alleg. June 1668 and did not rem. during the perils of 1676, in Philip's war. JOHN, Barnstable 1640, join. the ch. 13 Oct. 1644, and his w. Susanna d. of the first Samuel Hinckley, join. 13 June 1652; but whether she was mo. of all the ch. is not cert. but he had Samuel, b.

In 1659 being allow. by the Ct. to hear what the Quakers could say in their defence, was wise eno. with Isaac Robinson, s. of blessed John of Leyden, to advise repeal of the laws against them.

For sec. w. he m. 1694, Clemence, wid. of Jonathan Hunt of Northampton, and d. 1704. JOHN, Hampton 1614, was, prob. the progenit. of a line of Smiths in that town, and his d. Deborah was first w. of Nathaniel Bachiler. JOHN, wh. by Farmer is nam. of Boston, com. from Ireland, and adm. of the ch. 1640, must be look. at as a supernum. for the ch. rec. in the yr. foll. giv. only this foundat. for such a statem. "21 of the 12th 1640 Mrs. Hannah S. the w. of one Mr. John Smyth in Ireland" and it may seem as prob. (no more being heard of her) that she went to him, as that he came to her. The gr. rebellion in I. broke out; the same yr. JOHN, Dorchester, came in 1635 with w. and d. Mary (in the James of Bristol), the ch. brot. from Warrington, Lancash. on a horse in a pannier, balanc. by young Nathaniel, s. of Rev.

Faith, d. prob. of Francis Parrott, had, says Gage, John, and Jonathan, tw. b. 1659. Perhaps both d. and he d. 1661, leav. d. Sarah. His wid. I think, m. Ezekiel Jewett. JOHN, Saco, freem. 1653, had been there from 1636, and we would gladly learn more of him. JOHN, Plymouth, usually call. jr. able to bear arms 1643, was not, perhaps, s. of the first John of the same, m. 4 Jan. 1649, Deborah, d. of Arthur Howland of Marshfield, had Hasadiah, b. 11 Jan. 165O; John, 1 Oct. 1651; Josiah, 16 Apr. 1652; Eleazer, 20 Apr. 1654; and Hezekiah, 8 Feb. 1656. JOHN, Eastham, call. sen. had w. Lydia, wh. d. 21 July 1672, and he m. 15 Nov. foll. Jael Packer, or Packard, d. of Samuel the first, of Bridgewater. JOHN, Hingham, freem. 1647, as to me seems more prob. tho. Farmer decid. for 1654, m. May 1645, Sarah, d. of Ralph Woodward of the same, had, perhaps, sev. ch. besides John, b. 19 Sept. 1653, was lieut. 1661, rep. lG83 and aft. till chos. Assist. 1686, in wh. he contin. to serve until the new Chart. and d. May 1695. JOHN, Providence, call. for distinct. Jamaica John, perhaps bec. he came from there, was d. bef. 20 May 1685, when his s. John executes a deed, in wh. he styles hims. s. and heir. JOHN, Taunton, had Elizabeth b. 7 Sept. 1663; Henry, 27 May 1666; perhaps others. JOHN, Salem 1609, was a tailor; and Felt names ano. John, Salem 1660, a malster, who had w. Ann. Ano. JOHN, of Salem, was a mason in 1671. One of these Salem Johns, at the ord. of Rev. John Higginson, in 1660, rais. a disturb. Perhaps his w. Margaret and her ch. were then in prison at Boston, as quakers. See Hutch. I. 203. In his will of 20 Jan. 1679, it is seen, that he had two s. viz. George and Exercise, ds. Tamosin and Margaret, that his w. was sis. of Joshua Buffum, to wh. was giv. the s. Exercise, as was George to ano. of that peacef. sect. JOHN, Dorchester, had James, and Mary, wh. were adult when they were bapt. in right of their mo. 10 June 1683, she then being w. of Ellis Wood as the ch. rec. tells. But very curious rec. of bapt. is found few mos. preced. as follows: "The childr. of Miriam, the w. of Ellis Smith, were bapt. 19 Nov. 1682, viz. Ann, Miriam, Sarah, and David." Who was f. of these ch. is on the face of the rec. doubtful. No such man as Ellis Smith can be heard of, and easy eno. might the scribe mistake this name tor Wood, if we may assume that the w. of Wood was bring. up to the font offspring of her former h. John Smith, wh. d. 1682. JOHN, New London 1658, call. "nailor Smith" had come from Boston (where he liv. in 1653), with w. Joanna, and only ch. Elizabeth made collector of the imposts, 1659, freem. [[122]] 1666; was deac. and d. 4 Oct. 1670. His wid. d. 1687, aged a. 73; and Elizabeth m. a Way of Lyme. Caulkins, 323. JOHN, Dedham 1661, may be the h. of a d. of Philip Eliot of Roxbury, nam. in his will. JOHN, Watertown, s. of the first Thomas of the same, m. 1 Apr. 1665, Mary, d. of Anthony Beers, had Mary, b. 15 June 1667; John, 8 Aug. 1668; Abigail, 29 June 1670; Hannah, 27 Dec. 1672; Sarah, 7 June 1675; and perhaps, but not prob. Samuel, whose day of b. as giv. by Bond, 10 Mar. 1700, excites suspic. of error. JOHN, Eastham, m. 24 May 1667, Hannah Williams, had Elizabeth b. 24 Feb. 1669; Sarah, 27 Mar. 1672; perhaps Mercy, 17 Sept. 1676; and Ebenezer, 16 Jan. 1680; yet some uncertainty arises as to the names and births of some. Ano. JOHN, Eastham, m. 30 Nov. 1668, Mary Eldridge, perhaps d. of Robert of the same, had John, b. 18 Oct. 1669; Jeremiah, 27 Dec. 1670; William, 2 Aug. 1672; a d. 10 Feb. 1675; Mary, 30 Nov. 1676, d. soon; Mary, again, 15 Jan. 1678; Beriah, 21 Mar. 1680; Bethia, 16 Jan. 1682; and Mehitable, 1 May 1691; but some confus. is appar. in the assignm. of the ch. to these two Johns in Geneal. Reg. VII. 279. JOHN, Boston, mason, in his will of 27 Oct. 1678, pro. 8 Nov. foll. aft. giv. £4. ea. to his f. and mo. and relinq. half of their debts to his serv. Mungo Craford, and John Wilson, names his two ch. Jeremiah, wh. should have 2/3 of his est. and Joseph 1/3, as ea. reach. 21 yrs. JOHN, Hampton, a tailor, and JOHN, Hampton, a cooper, ea. took o. of alleg. 1678, of wh. one may have been f. and one s. but it is not very prob. and I am ign. of the priority; only the cooper, it is said, by w. Huldah had Abigail, b. 24 Feb. 1688. One of them was s. of JOHN, late of the Vineyard, but I find in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 52, no mark of time, to inform what late refers to. JOHN, Providence, call. junr. in May 1671, when he engag. alleg.

After assid. attent. I am unable to give distinct. to any more Johns, tho. beyond doubt there were sev. wh. would be embrac. by my plan; yet the ingenuity of any single antiquary would be oft. at fault, even if his patience were not exhaust. in pursuit of the local habitat. of all. In Boston alone were four tax payers of the name in 1695. JONATHAN, Wethersfield, s. of Richard the first of the same, made freem. 1657, m. 1 Jan. 1664, Martha, d. of Francis Bushnell, prob. had sev. ch. bef. rem. to Middletown, where he had Gershom, b.

LESTER, Boston, came in the Speedwell from London, arr. 27 July 1656, aged 24; but no more is kn. of him. MARMADUKE, Rye, then claim. as belong. to Conn. was in 1669 a sort of preacher to the people there, but not to the satisfact. of the governm. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. Ir. 120. MARTIN, Northampton, took the o. of alleg. 8 Feb. 1679. He may be the man k. 29 Feb. 1704 at Deerfield, by the Fr. and Ind. MATTEHEW, Charlestown, a cordwinder, came, 1637, from Sandwich, Co. Kent, with w. Jane and four ch. and was that yr. adm. inhab. of C. tho. Felt shows, that Salem made him gr. of ld. perhaps conditional. His w. was rec. by the ch. 22 Dec. 1639; but no bapt. is ment. on the rec. nor can the names of those brot. from Eng. be ascertain. He was a householder in 1658, and perhaps in 1678, under the title of goodman. MATTHEW, Watertown, wh. sw. fidel. in 1652, may be the man claim. by Eaton among early sett. of Reading, but the Boston rec. of d. call. him "of W. and s. in law of Thomas Cooper of B." shows that be was" drown. at Noddle's isl. 21 May 1658." He was, I presume, a young man, whose mo. the wid. S. of W. had m. Cooper.

MICHAEL, Charlestown [[127]] 1644, liv. on the Malden side, adm. of the ch. 1 July 1645; had been fin. for voting unduly, but the tender mercy of the Gen. Court in May 1647, when he was made freem. extend. to him, as "being poor and of an harmless disposition, and the act done in simplicity." He prob. had sev. ch. and Farmer names Samuel, b. 19 July 1648. but this is aft. the sad vacuity in our ch. rec. of bapt. Yet aft. the blessed restorat. not of Charles II. but of the writing down of ch. brot. to the font, I find Sarah, "d. of our br. M. S. (of Malden side)" on 4 Aug. 1661; was a householder 1658. MORRIS, Gloucester, m. 4 Nov. 1681, Sarah Millet, perhaps d. of Thomas, or, as Babson thinks more prob. wid. of John. By her he had Sarah, b. 1683; and Morris, 1686.

Still the wonder did not so far outrun conscience and common sense, as to prevail on the trial of Mary Webster, charg. for such clear malignities not only against Smith, the hypochondriac suffer. but others; even tho. she was before a jury at Boston, then peculiar. expos. to false impress., she was acquit. and d. peaceably at Hadley.

Yet in this much doubt is felt, for Roxbury rec. of d. in 1672 has RALPH, aged 95, of wh. more strange is it, that nothing else was ever heard, so that I fear error in this Roxbury rec. tho. he may have been the Hingham man.

C. 172O, min. of Weymouth, f. of Abigail, the mo. of first Presid. Adams. This name Farmer truly calls, "the most freq. of any in N. E. and perhaps in the U. S." In 1834, he says, 214 had been gr. at N. E. coll. of wh. 74 are found at Yale, 35 at Dartmouth, and only 38 at Harv. SNAWSELL, ABRAHAM, Marblehead 1672. THOMAS, Boston, merch. 1663, ar. co. 1665.

By her he had William, b. 24 June 1649; Ann, 2 Mar. 1652, wh. prob. d. young; and Ann, again, 7 May 1654, bapt. next Sunday. Coffin, p. 55, furnishes some amusing story of his short resid. at Newbury. WILLIAM, Boston, prob. s. of the preced. m. Margaret, wid. of William Rogers, had Mary, b. 20 June 1677; but, it is said by Farmer, that no descend. remain. SNOOKE, JAMES, Weymouth, by his will, of 22 June 1655, pro. 19 July foll. of wh. he made his w. Margaret Extrix., he seems to have come from Fifehead Magdalen near Shaftesbury, Co. Dorset, nam. two [[138]] sis. and a sis. in law in that sh. His wid. made her will 9 Apr. 1660. The name was not, I think, perpet.

Rebecca, d. of Robert Barker, and had William, James, Joseph, Benjamin, Mary, Lydia, Hannah, and Rebecca. WILLIAM Bridgewater, s. prob. of the preced. m. Naomi, d. of Thomas Whitman. Of this name, in 1829, Farmer says three had been gr. at Brown Univ. of wh. was Caleb H. the dilig. and lament. hist. of Boston. SNUFFENE, GEORGE, if such a name be true, was propound. 1670, for freem. in Conn. SOLART, or SALART, JOHN, Wenham 1656, had w. Sarah, nam. in his will of 26 Sept. 1672; but perhaps she was then in Eng. certain. in 1676, when he went for her, was back here in 1679. From Prob. Reg. we find, that his wid. had admin. the ch. were Elizabeth w. of Joseph Lovett; Hannah, w. of John Trask; Martha, w. of Thomas Kilham; Abigail, w. of Mordecai Larcum; Mary, wh. m. John Edwards; Sarah, wh. m. Daniel Poole; Bethia; and Joseph, wh. last d. under age; that the wid. mo. of these ch. had m. Ezekiel Woodward, and was since dec. JOSEPH, perhaps of Ipswich, was br. of the preced. ROBERT, in some pt. of Essex, had recent. d. when his inv. was made 1663. SOLEY, or SOLLY, JOHN, Charlestown 1686, by w.

MANUS, Charlestown, had Rebecca, b. 20 Oct. 1646. MATTHEW, Charlestown, perhaps br. of John, had w. Sarah, bapt. 20 Mar. 1681, with John, and Matthew (perhaps not tw.), their ch. at the same time; a ch. whose name is omit. on the rec. 2 Apr. 1682; and Sarah, 22 June 1684. May not these persons have been Huguenots? SOLLENDEN, or SALINDINE, JOHN, Dunstable, m. 2 Apr. 1679, or 2 Aug. 1680 (by the rec. of Middlesex or Fox's Hist. respectiv.), Elizabeth Usher, and F. gives the names and dates of the ch. Sarah, b. Apr. 1682; John, May 1683; and Alice, Jan. 1686. He was a selectman, liv. 1695. SOMERBY, ABIEL, Newbury, s. of Anthony, freem. 1669, m. 13 Nov. 1661, Rebecca, d. of deac. Richard Knight, had Henry, b. 13 Nov. [[140]] 1662; Elizabeth 20 Dec. 1664; Abiel, 2 Aug. 1667; Abigail, 25 Jan. 1670; and Anthony and Rebecca, tw. posthum. 2 June 1672; for he d. 27 Dec. 1671. From him descends Horatio G. Somerby, the assid. enquir. for geneal. in Eng. ANTHONY, Newbury, s. of Richard, gr. s. of Henry of Little Bytham, 8 ms. from Stamford, in Co. Linc. where he was bapt. 16 Aug. 1610, came in the Jonathan, 1639, was freem. 18 May 1642, the first sch. master, town clk. from 1648 to his d. at the end of July 1686, aged 76. By w. Abigail, wh. d. 3 June 1673, he had Abiel only, b. 8 Sept. 1641. HENRY, Newbury, br. of the preced. with wh. he came, was bapt. 17 Mar. 1612, m. Judith, d. of Capt. Edmund Greenleaf, had Sarah, b. 10 Feb. 1645; Elizabeth Nov. 1646; John, 24 Dec. 1648, d. within 2 yrs.; and Daniel, 18 Nov. 1650, wh. d. on serv. in Philip's war 1676; was freem. on 18 May 1642, and d. 2 Oct. 1652. His wid. m. 2 Mar. 1653, Tristram Coffin. Elizabeth m. 25 Nov. 1663, Nathaniel Clark; and next, 8 Aug. 1698, Rev. John Hale of Beverly. SOMERS, JOHN, Marshfield, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 1686; John, 1688; Mary, 1691; and Nathan, 1693. That the fam. rem. to Rochester, is told by Miss Thomas, but neither she, nor others, give the much more interesting fact, where it came from. SOMES, JOHN, Boston, s. of Morris of Gloucester, m. Hannah, eldest d. of Samuel Shattuck of Salem, the happy messeng. of Charles II. who brot. the order to stop the execrable policy of persecut. the Quakers; made his will 13 Nov. 1687, pro. in 1700, when of sev. ch. only Benjamin was liv. to settle the est. MORRIS, Gloucester, by w. Margery had Mary, b. 1 Mar. 1642, and Sarah, 15 June 1643. His w. d. 22 Jan. 1647; and he m. 26 June foll. Elizabeth d. of John Kendall of Cambridge, had John, 22 Apr. 1648; Lydia, 3 Oct. 1649; and some others, of wh. Hannah, 3 Sept. 1608. He d. 1689. Mary m. 17 Oct. 1660, John Hammond, and Sarah m. 15 June 1665, Henry Witham. TIMOTHY, Gloucester, perhaps s. of the preced. m. 2 Jan. 1672, Jane Stanwood, perhaps d. of Philip, had Timothy, b. 27 July 1673; Jane, 1 Dec. 1674; Alice, 11 Mar. 1677; Joseph, 26 Aug. 1679; and William, 24 Jan. 1682. SOPER, JOSEPH, Boston, m. 6 May 1656, Elizabeth d. of Thomas Alcock; but I see no more of him, exc. that their s. Joseph was b. 5 Jan. 1660. SOULE, SOLE, or SOUL, GEORGE, Plymouth, came in the Mayflower 1620, under protect. of Edward Winslow, sign. the Cape Cod compact in Nov. was tax. in 1633 and 4 independ. of W. had rem. to Duxbury bef. 1643, by w. Mary Becket had George; Zechariah; John, b. 1632; Nathaniel; Benjamin, but the order is unk. as also Patience, Elizabeth and Mary, wh. m. John Peterson; all as Bradford says, bef. 1650. He was rep. 1645, and some yrs. later; an orig. propr. of Bridgewater, [[141]] as in 1652, he had been among the purch. of Dartmouth. His w. d. 1677 and he d. 1680; in 1668 have est. in Middleborough to John Haskins and Francis Walker, wh. m. respectiv. Patience and Elizabeth GEORGE, and NATHANIEL, s. of the preced. were of Dartmouth 1686, but no acco. of either is gain. JOHN, Duxbury, s. of the first George, when his f. made his will, was the oldest, by w. Esther had John; Joseph, b. 31 July 1679; Joshua, 12 Oct. 1681; Josiah, 1682; Benjamin; and two ds. ZECHARY, Duxbury 1643, perhaps br. more prob. as Weston says, s. of the preced. d. 1663, his wid. Margaret gave inv. on 11 Dec. Winsor thinks, he had s. of the same name, wh. perish. in the unhappy expedit. of Phips, 1690; and tells one of his cous. James, of Middleborough, wh. was fin. L5 for refus. to go. SOUTH, JOHN, Dorchester, if the name spell. Sougth in the ret. of d. 1635, may thus be writ. Yet no such name is heard of at D. exc. in this list of d. and it may be he was only trans. WILLIAM, Mass. sentenc. by Court of Assist. 4 Sept. 1638, and by the Gen. Ct. few days aft. to be banish. on pain of d. but the rec. names not the offence. SOUTHCOATE, or SOUTHCOT, RICHARD, Dorchester 1630, came in the Mary and John, req. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. of that yr. and perhaps 18 May foll. was adm. under designat. of Capt. If so, had leave 26 July next to go to Eng. promis. to return with conven. speed; but came not. Yet he may have been short time at Piscataqua in 1639. THOMAS, Dorchester, prob. br. of the preced. an orig. patentee under the Great Plymouth Comp. but not ment. in royal chart. came perhaps in the Mary and John and req. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and as he is never ment. again, it is believ. that he went home that autumn. SOUTHER, SOUTER, or SOWTHER, JOHN, Boston, m. 11 Jan. 1661, Hannah, d. of Robert Read, may not be the same, wh. tool; o. of alleg. at Hampton, Dec. 1678, was keep. of the prison here 1683, perhaps had sec. w. and d. at B. 2 Jan. 1697. JOSEPH, prob. of Boston, m. 22 Oct. 1657, Elizabeth d. of Daniel Fairfield, had Joseph, b. 20 Aug. 1658; John, 5 Sept. 1660; Hannah, 31 Aug. 1663; Paul, 30 Jan. 1666; Samuel, 9 Dec. 1670; Daniel, 12 Aug. 1674; and Dinah, 13 Apr. 1677; was freem. 1684. NATHANIEL, Plymouth 1636, clk. of the Court, rem. to Boston 1649, was freem. 1653, and a notary. His w. Alice d. 27 Sept. 1651; and he m. 5 Jan. 1654, wid. Sarah Hill, and d. 27 June 1655. His wid. sold his est. in Feb. foll. His d. Mary m. 1 Dec. 1653, Joseph Shaw, and next, 16 Aug. foll. John Blake. SOUTHMEAD, or SOUTHMAYD, JOHN, New London 1668, s. of William, the first, was a mariner and soon rem. WILLIAM Gloucester, mariner and shipwright, m. 28 Nov. 1642, Milicent d. of William Addis, had William, b. 12 Sept. 1643; John, 26 Oct. 1645, d. soon; and [[142]] John, again, 31 Dec. 1646. Soon aft. he d. for his inv. is found at Pro. Ct. 20 Feb. 1649, wh. I regret to add, shows little prop. and his wid. m. William Ash, wh. rem. a. 1650 to New London, and had 3d h. Thomas Beebee, prob. was happy to give ch. to ea. WILLIAM, New London, mariner and ship owner, eldest s. of the preced. rem. to Middletown, m. Oct. 1673, Esther, d. of Giles Hamlin, had William, b. 1674, d. young; John, 1676, H. C. 1697, min. of Waterbury; William, again, 1679, d. young; Giles, 1680; and Esther, 1682, d. soon; by sec. w. Margaret, d. of Hon. John Allyn of Hartford, had Allyn, b. 1685; Daniel, 1687, d. at 16 yrs.; Margaret, 1691; Ann, 18 Jan. 1693; Joseph, 1695; William, again, 1698; and Milicent, 1700, wh. d. at 17 yrs. and he d. Dec. 1702. His wid. wh. d. 16 Mar. 1733, in her will of 5 Dec. 1728, names only four of her ch. Margaret Gaylord, Ann Stillman, Joseph, and William. The name is well perpet. in Conn. SOUTHWELL, EBENEZER, Northampton, s. of William of the same, m. Elizabeth d. of Samuel Judd, had Elizabeth b. 28 June 1721; and he rem. to Suffield. ENOCH, Northampton, br. of the preced. m. 1732, but Mr. Judd omits the w's. name, tho. he add. that he had ch. until 1743. WILLIAM, Northampton, m. 24 Feb. 1687, Sarah, d. of John Stebbins of the same, was freem. 1690, had Mary, b. 25 Feb. 1688; Enoch, 1689, d. soon; Sarah, 19 Nov. 1690; Ebenezer, 17 Jan. 1694; Abigail, Apr. 1696, d. young; Hannah, 16 Sept. 1698; Enoch, again, 26 Apr. 1700; and John, b. and d. 1703. No gain has follow. the search for this man's origin; and perhaps one of the very few instances of emigrat. from Eng. to our country, later than 1670, may be this of Southwell. More than the proportion of ninety-five in the hundr. of the populat. of N. E. in 1775, had descend. I think, from the sett. wh. came at least 25 yrs. bef. that earlier date. SOUTHWICK, DANIEL, s. of Lawrence, m. 23 Feb. 1663, Esther, d. of Joseph Boyce, had Esther, b. 26 June 1665; Elizabeth 24 June 1668; Daniel, 25 Mar. 1671; Elinor, 25 June 1674; and Hannah, 7 Aug. 1677. JOHN, Salem, eldest s. of Lawrence, m. Sarah, wid. of Samuel Tidd, had Sarah, b. June 1644; Mary, 10 Oct. 1646; and Samuel, 19 Feb. 1659. JOSIAH, Salem, br. of the preced. by w. Mary had Joseph, b. 3 Apr. 1662; Mary, Nov. 1664; Cassandra, Nov. 1667; and Ruth, 21 Feb. 1674. LAWRENCE, Salem 1639, with. w. Cassandra join. the ch. and was adm. freem. 6 Sept. of that yr. I presume, and on 6 Dec. foll. had John, Josiah, Daniel, and Provided bapt. at once. Other ch. were Mary, w. of Henry Trask, and Deborah. He was, I suppose, a glass blower, had gr. of ld. for house lot of two acres; but in the dark days of delus. against the quakers, 1658 and 1669, the whole fam. suffer. much, fines and imprison. fell on all, and the d. Clarissa was subj. to gr. severity. When the fines of Daniel and Provided were unpaid, the tender-hearted Gen. Court, with intent to magnify the glory of God, order. them to be sold for slaves to any Christians in Virg. or Barbados. We are permit. to rejoice, that the sentence was not enforc. and the f. with his flock found refuge at Shelter isl. near the East end of L. I. where in peace he made his will of 10 July 1659, allow. in 1660; James the ch. Daniel. Provided, John, Josiah, and ds. Mary, w. of Henry [[143]] Trask, and Deborah; and his w. and hims. d. within three days of ea. other, it is said. See Felt, II. 580-2, and Col. Rec. IV. part first, pp. 349, 366, 7, and 410. Much as they might love their native ld. the danger from their opin. requir. banishm. it seem. with a proviso, that they should suffr death for return. SOUTHWORTH, CONSTANT, Plymouth, s. of Edward, b. 1610, was not brot. in the Ann 1623, by his wid. mo. when she came to m. Gov. Bradford, but came, it is presum. in 1628, was made freem. of the col. and m. 2 Nov. 1637, Elizabeth d. of William Collier, resid. in Duxbury, was rep. in 1647 and 22 yrs. foll. and on the d. of his br.

He liv. at Middleborough, was a lieut. rep. 1696, and d. 14 Jan. 1711. THOMAS, Plymouth, br. of Constant, prob. younger, came with him, was a milit. lieut. and capt. an Assist. 1652 and twelve times aft. until 1667, d. 8 Dec. 1669, in his 53d yr. He and his br.

Rebecca, wh. d. 3 or 23 Dec. 1702, in her 43d yr. had Benjamin, b. 18 Apr. 1681; Joseph, 1 Feb. 1683; Edward, 23 Nov. 1684; Elizabeth 23 Sept. 1686; Alice, 14 July 1688; Samuel, 26 Dec. 1690; Nathaniel, 31 Oct. 1692; Thomas, 13 Dec. 1694; and Stephen, 31 Mar. 1696; and by sec. w. had Gideon, 21 Mar. 1707; and Andrew, 12 Dec. 1709; and d. 2O June 1719. The name is not now seen at Little Compton, but is well diffus. in other parts of N. E. It was sometimes Southwood, in the early days, and belong. to "eminently a BassetLaw fam." by wh. I am constrain. to doubt the deduct. of pedigree, as print. in Winsor, 31G. Sir Gilbert, Sir John, Sir Thomas, Sir Christopher, may well have flourish. in Lancash. on the West Coast of the kingdom, but Edward, the h. of Alice Carpenter, wh. bec. w. [[144]] of our Gov. Bradford, liv. on the E. side; and of a line, however humble, long estab. there, so would not prob. draw his blood from them. A very long l. of most val. public serv. in Mass. Conn. and N. Y. proves, that honors from the Ct. of Queen Elizabeth were not need. Much benefit to thousands of inquirers on our side of the ocean may be deriv. from wise use of a few words in the note of Mr. Hunter, on pp. 6 and 7 of "The founders of New Plymouth," Ed. 1854: "mere possess. of a surname wh. coincides with that of an Eng. fam. is no proof of connex. with that fam. Claims of alliance found. on this basis are not the legitimate offspring of laborious genealog. inquiry, but of self-love and the desire to fvund a reputa. for ancestorial honor where no such honor is really due." Well is the topic explain. in further remarks, found. on experience of more than one gross case of indecent pretension. SOWDEN, THOMAS, Marblehead, 1674. SOWELL, THOMAS, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Hannah, b. 2 Nov. 1652, d. young; and Thomas, 13 July 1653; in wh. the rec. is, of course, less worthy of belief, than in ment. of his d. 7 Dec. 1654.

SPAULDING, SPAULDEN, SPOLDEN, SPARLDEN, or SPALDEN, ANDREW, Chelmsford, s. of Edward the first, was a deac. perhaps had fam. and d. 5 May 1713.

JOHN, Chelmsford, s. prob. the eldest, of Edward the first, m. 18 May 1658, Hannah Hale, had Eunice, b. 27 July, 1660, says the rec. in Middlesex; but Farmer MS. beside sev. ds. not nam., gives him John, b. 28 Feb. 1661; Edward, 16 Sept. 1663; Samuel, 6 Mar. 1668; and Joseph, 22 Oct. 1673; was freem. 1690.

SPAULE, SPOWELL, or SPAUL, THOMAS, Boston, by w. Alice had Mary, b. Sept. 1644; and for sec. w. had Mary, wh. brot. him Elizabeth 29 Sept. 1646; if the rec. be true; and yet ano. w.

I am ign. whether she was wid. or maid; so that we ought to hesitate, whether Spaul and Spowell be the same. Mary his w. by his will of 23 Feb. 1671, was devisee of his ho. ld. and personal est. while a wid. but aft. his d. Mary, w. of Joseph Knight, to enjoy in perpet. and failing issue, then to his kinswom. Elizabeth d. of Edmund Brown of Dorchester.

Ct. Mar. 1637, but two mos. aft. turn. out for his heresy in favor. Wheelwright, and Nov. foll. ord. to surrender his arms. See Winthrop I. 248. He went home next yr. and d. it is thot. in 1648, for in Mar. 1649, his will of 1 Aug. 1637, was pro. at Salem. In it he ment. neph. John S. his heir, br. Thomas Spencer, and cous. Ann Knight. JOHN, Haddam, s. perhaps eldest., of the first Jared, was a propr. 1660, offer. as freem. [[148]] 1669, m. a. 1665, Rebecca, d. of Robert Howard, had Rebecca, b. Mar. 1666; Jared, Jan. 1669; Benjamin, Mar. 1671; Lydia, 1673; and Grace, Feb. 1677; and he d. 3 Aug. 1682. JOHN, E. Greenwich, in his later days, had brot, fam. t o that town, as in the rec. we find "Thomas, his seventh s. of John and Susanna Spencer, was b. in E. G. 22 July 1679. a. 5 o'clock in the morn. and was the first Eng. ch. b." there. But he had liv. in some part of the Col. a dozen yrs. bef. for he was freem. 1668, yet since no trace of him is earlier seen, or any report of progenit. my conject. is that he is one of the few that came over aft. the restorat. of Charles II. and had w. and some ch. soon aft. Perhaps his w. was d. Audrey or Susanna, of John Greene the sec. of Warwick. He had sec. w. and d. 1684, as the will made by the town governm. ment. her and the ch. in the order, prob. of age, John, Michael, Benjamin, William, Robert, Abner, Thomas, Peleg, and Susanna. MICHAEL, Cambridge 1634, br. of Jared the first, rem. to Lynn 1637, freem.

Robbins, bec. a shipwright, and liv. at Cambridge, it is said, in 1670, there m. 7 Dec. 1671, Rebecca, d. of Thomas Sweetman, had Rebecca, b. 4 Nov. 1673. Porter claims the elder Michael as an inhab. of Hartford, on Mill str. 1645; but I conject. that his eye mistook Mr. for this name. NATHANIEL, Haddam, s. of Jared, m. 1681, Lydia, d. of Thomas Smith, had Lydia, b. 10 Aug. 1682; Nathaniel, 15 July 1684; Elizabeth 18 Jan. 1686; John, 30 Mar. 1688; Mary, 9 June 1692; Daniel, 20 Aug. 1694; Susanna, 8 Nov. 1696; Dorothy, 8 Mar. 1699; and Phineas, 20 Mar. 1701.

ROGER, Saco 1652, submit. then to Mass. came up to Charlestown 1653, mariner, was a capt. at Saco the same yr. perhaps, and aft. until 1669. His d. Mary m.

STEPHEN, Boston 1661. THOMAS, Piscataqua 1630, sent by Mason, the patentee, perhaps liv. first on the W. side, but in 1652 was on Kittery side, and in 1654 liv. at Saco, and in 1651, 3 and 6 was of the gr. jury, of only eight, in this last yr. He m. a d. of William Chadbourne. His wid. Patience kept an inn at Saco in 1662, and was d. 1683. The ch. were William, Humphrey, and Moses, beside two ds. wh. may have m.

THOMAS, Cambridge 1632, br. of Jared and John, freem. 14 May 1634, rem. 1638 at Hartford, was serj. of the milt. and had, in 1671, a gr. for serv. d. 11 Sept 1686.

Sarah m. Thomas Huxley; Elizabeth m. Samuel Andrews; and Martha m. a Benton. THOMAS, Concord, 1666, by Farmer was thot. to be the freem. of 1681; tho. as the rec. calls him of Suffield. it seems to me equal. prob. that the foll. was he. THOMAS, Hartford, s. of Thomas of the same, on the list of freem. 1669, adm. 1658, with br. Obadiah, m. Esther, d. of William Andrews, had Abigail, wh. d. young; Thomas; Elizabeth; Esther, d. of William Andrews, and Abigail, wh. d. young; 1680; liv. for most of his days at Suffield, and d. 23 July 1689, and his wid. d. 6 Mar. 1698.

WILLIAM was the name of a passeng. in the John and Mary 1634, from London, with John, aforement. and may have been his br. but where he sat down is unkn. Yet one William was Kittery 1663. WILLIAM, Haddam, s. of Jared of the same, m.

ISAAC, Dartmouth, s. of the first William, had Simpson, b. 12 Jan. 1700; Edward, 27 Dec. 1701; and Mercy, 27 Apr. 1707. JOHN, Dartmouth, eldest s. of the first William, and his only ch. by first w. wh. d. Apr. 1648; but he was prob. b. serv. yrs. bef. tho. the fam. geneal. gives no precise informat. exc. that he had John, b. 2 July 1668; and that by ano. w. (the bapt. or fam. name of either is not seen) he had William, 11 May 1680; Jonathan, 24 Aug. 1681; Elizabeth 19 June 1683; Eleanor, 1 Feb. 1685; Phebe, 11 May 1687; Nathan, 21 Sept. 1689; Rebecca, 8 Oct. 1691; Deborah, 10 Aug. 1694; and Barnabas, 5 Feb. 1699. His brs. Samuel and William are nam. with hims. and s. John in the orig. deed to the fifty-six grantees of the town, from William Bradford, 13 Nov. 1694. SAMUEL, Dartmouth, s. prob. eldest by the sec. w. of William, took o. of alleg. 1686, by w. Experience had William, b. 13 Feb. 1638; Mary, 4 Jan. 1690; Samuel, 4 Feb. 1692; Daniel, 28 Feb. 1693; Seth, 31 Jan. 1694; Hannah, 27 Jan. 1696; Joseph, or Jabesh, as one rec. has it, 13 June 1698; Ann, 18 Apr. ano. acco. says, 19 June 1700; Experience, 19 June 1702; Beulah, 27 June 1705; and Wing, 30 Apr. of yr. not ment. He d. 1737, or, at least, his will was pro. that yr. THOMAS, Salem 1637, freem. Mar. 1638, prob. had w. Ann, as her name stands among early ch. mem. was of Wenham 1657, by sec. w. Elizabeth had Hannah, wh. m. John Ruck, and possib. others. He got involv. with the Quakers 1659; and d. prob. 1664, for his inv. is found of 19 Nov. 1664. His wid. Elizabeth in her will, prob. 26 Mar. 1677 (see Essex Inst. Hist. Coll. II. 236), made Excor, John Ruck, h. of her d. Hannah S. and names his five ch. Elizabeth Sarah, Hannah, John, and Thomas, beside other gr.ch. Elizabeth and John Osborn Jr. and perhaps ch. of John Osborn of Boston, and some others. WILLIAM, Plymouth 1643, is by fam. tradit. said to have come from Colchester, Co. Essex, had in Mar. 1637 been serv. or apprent. to John Osborn Jr. and perhaps ch. of by the Ct. in 1645 made guardn. of the childr. of C. By w. Elizabeth wh. d. 28 Apr. 1648, he had only ch. John, bef. ment. aft. wh. he m. 18 Mar. 1652, Hannah Pratt, had Sarah, b. 5 Oct. 1653; Samuel, 14 Jan. 1655; William; Isaac; Ebenezer; Martha; Hannah, and Mercy; but these six of unkno. dates or order; was propound. in June 1653 for freem. and adm. next June; was good public serv., surveyor of highways, gr. juror 1657, and aft. in 1660 liv. at Dartmouth, was a town offic. in 1663, and d. 1684. WILLIAM, Dartmouth, s. of the preced. is nam. with others proprs. in the gr. of Bradford for the town 1694, and sw. alleg. two yrs. aft. by w.

Five of this name had in 1835 been gr. at Harv. SPOWELL, THOMAS, nam. in the will, Sept. 1656, of Thomas Buckminster, of Muddy riv. as the h. of his d. Elizabeth hav. two ch.

SPRAGUE, ANTHONY, Hingham, eldest s. of William of the same, m. 26 Dec. 1661, Elizabeth d. of Robert Bartlett of Plymouth, had Anthony, Benjamin, John, Elizabeth Samuel, Sarah, James, Josiah, Jeremiah, Richard, and Matthew, as in the Sprague Geneal. rank.; but some d. young, and his w. d. Feb. 1713. In his will of 21 July 1716, pro. 12 Oct. 1719, in our rec. XXI. 245 are nam. Anthony with Anthony his s. and other s. Richard, James, Samuel, Matthew, Josiah, and Jeremiah, beside d. Sarah Bates, w. of Caleb. He d. 3 Sept. 1719. His house was burn. 20 Apr. 1676 by the Ind. in Philip's war. Of this branch, of Anthony, thro. Jeremiah, the seventh s. is the celebr. poet, Charles, descend. EDWARD, Malden, youngest s. of the first John m. 24 Nov. 1693, Dorothy, d. of Job Lane of the same, had William, b. 4 Sept. 1696; Ann, 20 Mar. 1697; Dorothy, 9 Sept. 1698; and d. 13 Apr. 1715. FRANCIS, Plymouth, came with w. and a d. in the Ann 1623, but the names, Ann, and Mercy, are all that are giv. in 1627, at the div. of cattle, so that it is infer. that he left other ch. abroad, perhaps had John, or more b. here; and at P. was tax. 1633 and 4, but aft. was of Dusbury. He was liv. in 1666, as Winsor says, and he names the ch. John, Ann, Mary, and Mercy. This last, he tells, m. 9 Nov. 1637, William Tubbs; and one of the others m. Robert Lawrence; but I kn. no such man, and casually turn. (three yrs. aft. writ. this maledict) from p. 317 to 275, of Winsor, obs. that he calls him William. He was one of the orig. purch. of Dartmouth. * JOHN, Malden, eldest s. of Ralph, b. in Eng. freem. 1653, m. 2 May 1651, Lydia, d. of Edward Goffe of Cambridge, brot. from Eng. had John, b. 9 Mar. 1651; Lydia; Jonathan, b. Oct. 1656; Samuel, 21 Feb. 1659; and Mary, 13 Aprl 1661; Phineas, Feb. 1666; Edward; Deborah, 21 Sept. 1670; Sarah, Feb. 1673; and d. 16 Dec. 1703. The wid. d. 11 Dec. 1715. A will of his br. Richard, wh. outliv. him, in 1703, gives to five s. of this John, wh. was rep. 1689, 90, and 1. JOHN, Duxbury, only s. of Francis, liv. first at Marshfield, but d. in D.; m. 1655, Ruth, d. of William Bassett, had John; William; Samuel; Ruth, b. 12 Feb. 1659; Elizabeth; Desire; and Dorcas; was k. in Philip's war, 26 Mar. 1676, under Pierce, at the fierce fight of Pawtucket. JOHN, Plymouth and Duxbury, in Hutch. I. 354 call. one of the counc. to Sir Edmund Andros, was perhaps s. of William, and if this be true, he m. 13 Dec. 1666, Elizabeth Holbrook, and Hosea S. in his Geneal, tells no more, but that he sold in 1682 his est. at Hingham, and d. [[154]] at Mendon 1690. Yet there is, in my opin. very slight reason for think, the s. of William of Hingham to be the counsellor. Judge Mitchell refers to the will of the Hingham, man, of 1683, as it ment. his ch. John, William, Ebenezer, Elizabeth, Hannah, Milicent, and Persis. JOHN, Malden, eldest s. of John of the same, by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 23 July 1685; Abiah, 21 Aug. 1687; Mary, 27 Nov. 1689; was freem. 1690; and he d. June 1692. JONATHAN, Weymouth, s. of William of Hingham, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 21 July 1670; rem. to R. I. by fam. tradit. and may be the same, wh. at Providence had preach. in the early part of 18th centu. was town clk. in 1722, and perhaps d. at Smithfield, Jan. 1741, aged 92. JONATHAN, Malden, s. of the first John of the same, by w. Mary had Richard, b. 28 June 1686; John, 7 May 1689; Joseph, 24 Oct. 1691; Nathan, 2 Feb. 1694; Hannah, and Mary, tw. 25 May 1696; David, 15 Aug. 1698; and was freem. 1690. PHINEAS, Malden, youngest s. of Ralph, freem. 1690, m. 11 Dec. 1661, Mary Carrington, perhaps d. of Edward, wh. brot. him no ch. and d. 7 Dec. 1667; but by sec. w. m. 5 Jan. 1670, Sarah Hasey, perhaps d. of William had Phineas, b. 27 Dec. foll. William, 21 Nov. 1672; Ralph, Nov. 1674; Sarah, 23 Apr. 1686; Joanna, 17 Apr. 1688; and Abigail, 2 Mar. 1690. But my suspicion is strong, that the three last belong to the other man of the same, name in that town. He took the o. of fidel. 15 Dec. 1674, and was rep. 1689 and 90. PHINEAS, Malden, prob. s. of the first John, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 11 Oct. 1691; Mary, 15 Oct. 1693; Tabitha, 19 Oct. 1696; and I find nothing more of him * RALPH, Charlestown 1629, came prob. with w. Joan, and s. John and Richard, that yr. in the fleet with Higginson, certain. with brs. Richard, and prob. William. They were s. of Edward prob. of Upway in Devonshire. Sometimes it has been thot. that these gent. were paseng. in 1628, with Endicott, but to me it seems more likely that, as they came, paying their own charges, they were in the fleet of 1629. With Endicott, in the Abigail, beside his fam. and serv. there not, I suppose, over twenty, includ. men, women, and ch. and most of them sent by the adventurers in London, as the first sh. for the planta. would naturally be occup. in transport. of persons wh. they should wholly control. The much larger exped. aft. gr. of the chart. 1629 had, also wider views of policy, and in obedience to the direct. of the officers of the comp. at home the Spragues, wh. came at their own charge, wre sent by Endicott to take up the lands in C. but we kn. that the compiler of the Charlestown rec. threw back his narra. of early transact, by one yr. mak. Winthrop and the gr. body of our early sett. come in 1629. As the Spragues came one yrs. bef. Winthrop Mr. Green, the compiler of that MS. compliment. by Prince and most of us as the first rec. of C. natural. gave them the [[155]] date 1628, and on the same premises our confidence reposes, that the true yr. was 1629. He had w. Joan, and the Nos. of hims. and her on our ch. list are 102 and 3. He had Samuel, bapt. 3 June 1632, but he may have been b. many mos. for his was the sixth ch. nam. in our list, and the rite had not been perform. since Nov. 1630, by reason of the abs. of Wilson the pastor, wh. came back from Eng. the wk. bef. this bapt. He and his w. were of the 33, wh. had desir. dismiss. from the congr. of Boston "to enter into a new ch. body at C." and were dismiss. 14 Oct. 1632; and his d. Mary was bapt. 14 Sept. 1634; s. Phineas, 31 July 1637. He had sprung, I imagine, from Dorsetsh. and own. lds. in Upway of that Co. as by let. of 25 Mar. 1651 from his f.-in-law, John Corbin, at that parish, appears. On 19 Oct. 1630 he req. adm. and 18 May foll. was sw. as freem. made constable at the Gen. Ct. Oct. 1630, serg. lieut. and capt. in regular success, rep. May 1635, being the third time of such an assemb. and very frequ. aft.; ar. co. 1639; but I believe that in later days he liv. on Mistick side, or Malden, for his name is in a commiss. to set. bounds there, and he d. Nov. 1650, and his s. Jonathan next mo. and his name of the wid. is the sec. on the women's memo. to the Gen. Ct. 1651 in favor Matthews; and she may have m. eleven yrs. later Edward Converse of Woburn. Mary, his d. m. Daniel Edmunds, oft. writ. Edmunds, and in the will of her br. Capt. Richaard has good provis. * RICHARD, Charlestown, came, no doubt, with the preced. wh. was elder br. bring. w. Mary, and on the Boston list of ch. mem. stands bef. his br. being No. 79, adm. freem. 18 May 1631, was with w. dismiss. Oct. 1632, to form new ch. at C. in 1637 took side with Wheelwright, and sign. the remonstr. against the proceed. of the Ct. but on express. his regret, the signa. was eras.; was of ar. co. 1639, capt. rep. 1659 and sev. yrs. more, prob. had no. ch. and d. 25 Nov. 1668, aged 63. His will of 15 Sept. preced. names w. Mary, Richard, John, Samuel, and Phineas, s. of his br. Ralph, his br. William of Hingham, and gave to Harv. Coll. 30 ewes with their lambs. By the will of his wid. 12 Nov. 1671, pro. 16 June 1674, we gain a fine fam. crop. It names kinsmen, lieut. John, Samuel, and Phineas Sprague; kinsman Nathaniel Rand, and his s. Nathaniel; kindsman, Lawrence Dowse and his two ds. Elizabeth and Mary; childr. of Thomas Rand, and Lawrence Dowse; Jonathan, s. of Daniel Edmands; br. William Sprague, and his childr. sis. Alice Rand; kinsmen Thomas Rand, Nathaniel Rand, Lawrence Dowse, Abraham Newell, Nathaniel Brewer, and Thomas Lord; Mary Dowse, d. of Lawrence; made Excors. Nathaniel Rand, and lieut. John Sprague. His inv. summed up well. * RICHARD, Charlestown, s. of Ralph, b. in Eng. m. 25 Feb.

He took sec. w. Catharine Anderson, on whose gr. stone appears, that she d. 12 July 1701, aged 45; but prob. had no ch. by either w. as none is heard of. He was ar. co. 1681, capt. rep. 1681, and aft.; and was bur. 13 Oct. 1703, hav. d. 7, two days bef. wh. he made his will of unusual and judicious liberality to relatives, to clerg. to ch. and L400 to Harv.

SAMUEL, Malden, s. of Ralph, m. in Bostron, 12 Aug. 1655, Recuba Crawford, says our rec. perhaps mistak. the name (for the Malden rec. gives her name Rebecca), had Rebecca, wh. d. 15 Aug. 1658; Samuel, 4 May 1660; Samuel, again, May 1662; Rebecca, again, Sept. 1666; and perhaps sev. more, for by the will of Capt.

SPYERS, JOHN, Boston, was prob. only trans person, made his will 25 July 1655, pro. 6 Aug. foll. as in Geneal. Reg. V. 442. His direct.

Winthrop, in number 83 on the Boston list of ch. mem. and was of those dismiss. in Oct. 1632, to found the new ch. at C. freem. 14 May 1634, ar. co. 1646. Whether he had ch. is unkn. I think his w. was Bridget; and he of Boston 1659, but perhaps rem. THOMAS, s. of George the first of Fairfield, was in 1672, with his br. George, propound. for freem. liv.

Aug. 1697; beside Joseph, b. 25 Dec. 1698, as Cottren tells. WILLIAM, Stamford, sold out this est. 1666, perhaps was never resid. STRACKHOUSE, RICHARD, Salem 1638, had, as I judge, w. Susanna, wh. join. the ch. 1648, ahd Jonathan, Hannah, and Abigail, Bapt. May of that yr.; Ruth, 8 July 1649; Samuel, 13 Feb. 1653; and Mary, 25 June 1654; was, says Felt, in 1653, gr. the ferry to Beverly side, wh. he enjoy. till 1686, and prob. he liv. in the town of B.

June 1684, when perhaps he rem. to Ipswich. HUGH, Plymouth 1621, came in the Fortune, rem. to Dedham, where his w. and d. Hannah were adm. of the ch. 1640, and the d. soon aft. d. as I infer from the town rec. of Hannah, b. 17 Feb. 1641; rem. soon aft. and was of Lynn or Salem, where he had gr. of ld. in 1640, says Felt, was made freem. 28 Feb. 1643, and Farmer says, his w. was adm. of Salem ch. 1659. Possib. it was ano. of the same bapt. name; and he may have gone home. for one Hugh Stacey was of the Congr. ch. with Rev. John Philip, wh. went from our country, and organiz. that dissent. form at Wrentham, in Co. Suffk. 1650. JOHN, Lynn or Marblehead 1641, prob. br. of the first Henry, had John, bapt. at Salem 9 Oct. 1642; Deborah, 22 Oct. 1643; and John, 29 Mar. 1646. He d. a. 1672, and admin. on his est. was giv. to his wid. Elinor, wh. brot. inv. to Ct. 27 June. JOHN, Salem 1692, prob. s. of the preced. kept the Ship tavern 1692. MARK, of Exeter, perhaps, in 1689, I kn. not any more of. RICHARD, Taunton 1643, d. 1687, and 7 Dec. of that yr. Thomas Lincoln Jr. had adm. of his est. SAMUEL, Salem 1678. * SIMON, Ipswich 1641, freem. 1668, a capt. rep. 1685, 6, 9, and 90, d. 27 Oct. 1699, THOMAS, Ipswich 1648, had William; Thomas; John, b. 1658, d. young; Joseph, 1661; Simon, 1664,; John, again, 1666; beside Elizabeth Mary,and Susanna. This is found by Bary; but ano. THOMAS, wh. m. 4 Oct. 1653, Susanna Worcester, wh. must have been eldest ch. of Rev. William, and had Thomas, b. 6 July 1654; William 21 Apr. 1656; Rebecca, 7 Dec. 1657; Elizabeth 10 Apr. 1659; Joseph, 27 June 1660; and Mary, 7 Nov. 1661, Coffin tells of, in his Extr. from old Norfolk rec. Of his est. sett. in 1692, he says w. Susanna, and ch. [[160]] were partak. William, John, Elizabeth w. of John Woodwell, and Susanna, w. of John Marston Jr. wh. was perhaps the miller of Salem in 1679. WILLIAM, Salem 1678, freem. 1680. He was s. of Thomas, and m. 28 Nov. 1677, Priscilla Buckley, had Priscilla, b. 10 Oct. foll. and d. next yr.; William, 21 July 1680, d. young; Thomas, 28 Mar. 1682; Sarah, 17 Jan. 1684; William, again, 25 Dec. 1686; Priscilla, again, 3 Aug. 1689, prob. d. soon; for next is Priscilla, 1 May 1690; and Simon, 1 Mar. 1695. STAFFORD, JOSEPH, Warwick, s. prob. youngest, of Thomas, m. Sarah, fourth d. of Randall Houlden, had three s. and four ds. certain. for the wills of hims. and of his w. give the names of Stukely, Joseph, and John, beside ds. Francis Congdon, Elizabeth Case, Margaret Place, and Sarah Smith. * SAMUEL, Warwick, s. of Thomas of the same, m. Mercy, d. of Stukely Westcott; had, as in Friend's rec. at Newport is seen, Stukely, b. 7 Nov. 1661; Amos, 8 Nov. 1665; Mercy, 8 July 1668; Sarah, 18 Apr. 1671; and Samuel, 19 Nov. 1673; but other ch. he had, as nam. in his will, where the first, third, and fifth of that rec. are not seen, leav. us the right of conject. that those were d. bef. him. Substitutes for them appear in Thomas, the youngest, Patience, w. of Howland, Freelove, w. of Tillinghast, and Elizabeth w. of Devotion. Amos is call. the eldest s. and Sarah, eldest d. nam. Scranton. Gr. ch. too, are found, Mercy Thurbar, and Mary Stafford, claim. the testator's regard. He was oft. rep. in 1674 and chos. an Assist. and d. 20 Mar. 1718, aged 82. THOAMS, Newport of Portsmouth 1638, said to have been b. 1605, and to have come to Plymouth 1626, and to have built there the first mill for grind. corn by water, but this seems very loose rep. and the Col. rec. that refer to the first mill aft. June 1635, do not ment. him. He is found at Warwick 1652, among the freem. there 1655, rem. I presume to Conn. whose Gen. Ct. gr. him, 1674, fifty acres; but he had been at New London as early as 1662, and was at W. to end his days 1677. He made his will 4 Nov. 1677,and d. soon aft. had Sarah, wh. m. 13 July 1667, and Deborah, wh. m. 9 June 1670, both to Amos Westcott; Samuel; and Joseph. His will names w. Elizabeth eldest s. Thomas, and d. Hannah, w. of Luke Bromley, beside the others. Claim was assert. by him to be "of the blood of the Stafford," but of wh. Stafford is less clear, and prob. unimport. tho. he perhaps had a coat of arms. THOMAS, Warwick, s. of the preced. m. 28 Dec. 1671, Jane Dodge, ahd Thomas, and William, but no dates are told, either of their or his own b. nor can the f. of w. be trac. STAGPOLE, JAMES, Dover, had a gr. as Mr. Quint tells, 1694, but he says that he was b. 1653, meaning, I suppose, in Eng. Possib. this name has become Stackpole. STAINES, RICHARD, Boston 1654, sailmaker, had w. Joice, and ch. Sarah, b. 16 Nov. 1655; Thomas, 16 Aug. 1658; Richard, 3 Dec. 1660; Rebecca, 26 Dec. 1662; and Ann, 29 Jan. 1664; for wh. in his will of 24 Oct. 1672, pro. 1 Nov. foll. he made provis. The wid. m. John Hall. Richard was a soldier in Philip's war, at Hatfield 1675. [[161]] STAINWOOD, or STAINEWOOD. See Stanwood. STAIRES, THOMAS, Windsor, nam. in the will of Rev.

James Avery Jr.; Sarah, m. 9 Feb. 1674, John Edgecombe; and Margaret, m. 30 Nov. 1678, Pasco Foote; and by sec. w. Elizabeth d. of George Miller, m. 1685, had two. ch. of wh. one prob. was Edward; and in 1693 m. third w. Christian, wid. of William Chapell, wh. surv. him. This name has singular mutations. It first appears as Stanley, changes to Stallon, Stolion, or Stallion, and subsides, as Caulkins shows, into Sterling. STAMFORD, THOMAS, at Scarborough, or Saco, sw. fidel. to Mass. 1658. STANBURY, STANBERRY, or STANBOROUGH, JOSIAH, Lynn 1639, rem. to Southampton, L. I. had prob. s. Josiah, and d. there 1659. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 348. JOSIAH, Southampton, L. I. went to New Haven, m,. 1657, Alse, wid. of Thomas Wheeler, Jr. of N. H. and ret. to L. I. THOMAS, Boston, by w. Martha ahd Thomas, b. 15 Oct. 1642, wh. as his mo. join. our ch. 29 Nov. 1645, was bapt. the day foll. being Sunday, with John, 2 yr. and 11 wks. old; but the careless town rec. says b. 15 Sept. 1645. He had, also, Nathan, b. 25 Dec. 1646; and Martha, bapt. 11 Mar. 1649; and d. 27 Sept. 1652. His wid. was bur. 28 Sept. 1685, says Sewall in his Diary. Yet this is giv. by my conject. only, for there was WILLIAM of Boston, wh. had Sarah bapt. in right of his w. 1 June 1651, if the rec. be trust., wh. is not in my opin. clear. STANCLIFFE, JAMES, Middletown, had, says Mr. Parsons, betw. 1686 and 1712, William, Martha, James, Sarah, William, again, and James, again; but no date to either is seen. He d. 3 Oct. 1712, and his wid. of whose bapt. or fam. name knowl. is not gain. d. 30 Dec. foll. JAMES, Middletown, s. of the preced. m. 8 Apr. 1714, Abigail Bevans, prob. d. of Arthur, ahd Abigail; Mary; Martha; Sarah; James; Sibbil; and Benoni,wh. d 5 Mar. 1727. WILLIAM, Middletown, br. of the preced. m. 30 Mar. 1710, Olive, wid. of Jonas Wright, had James, b. 30 Sept. 1712. His w. d. 7 Nov. 1719, and he m. 5 Oct. 1721, Esther Adams of Hartford, had William, 1722; Samuel, 1724; Oliver, 1726; Esther, 1727; Jerusha, 1730; Solomon, 1732; Josiah, 1734; Olive., 1737; and Joseph, 1789, as in Geneal. Reg. XIV. 133. STANDISH, * ALEXANDER, Duxbury, eldest s. of Capt. Miles, m. Sarah, d. of John Alden, had Miles, Ebenezer, b. 1672; Lora; Lydia; Mercy; Sarah; Elizabeth and perhaps David. By sec. w. Desire, d. of Edward Doty, wh. had been wid. of Israel Holmes, and first of William [[162]] Sherman, he had Thomas, in 1687; Desire, 1689; and Ichabod. JAMES, Salem 1638, freem. 13 May 1640, when the name is writ. Standige, prob. had w. Sarah, and was one of the pentnrs. 1640 for grant at Jeffery's creek, now Manchester, but of Lynn 1642, and d.

John eight days aft.; had sev. ch. by her and also by sec. w. Sarah, d. of Samuel Allen of Braintree, Miles, Josiah, Samuel, Israel, Mary, Lois, Mehitable, Martha, and Mercy, tho. we can never assign the respect. ch. to ea. w. was lieut. rep. 1665 and sixteen yrs. more. He rem. a. 1686 to Preston, where he d. 1690. His wid. Sarah and s. Miles had admin. of his est. His d. Mercy m. 30 Sept. 1726, Ralph Wheelock, as his sec. w. and was not mo. of Rev. Eleazer, the first Presid. of Dartmouth Coll. ( as oft. said in books) insasmuch as he was b. more than fifteen yrs. bef. that m. and his mo. was Ruth, d. of the sec. Christopher Huntington. Equal. unsound is the derivat. of that more disting. Presid. Kirkland of Harv. Univ. from the same Mercy (as told in many places), gr. mo. gr.mo. was Sarah, d. of Ruth, first w. of the said Ralph, not of the sec. w. Mercy Standish. See full illustrat. by Weaver, in Geneal, Reg. XIV. 376. MILES, or MYLES, Duxbury, the celebr. capt. of the pilgr. of the Mayflower, was b. in Lancashire, being a cadet, it was said, of the old house of Standish, long estab. with good landed posses. at Dusbury, a town of the parish of Standish in the Co. close to Wigan, 9 ms. from Bolton, and a. 20 ms. N. E. of Liverpool. He had been at Leyden some yrs. bef. the emb. 1620, but we are ign. whether he had ch. at that time, tho. certain that he brot. nobody, beside w. Rose, wh. d. 29 Jan. one mo.aft. the land. His next w. Barbara, came in the Ann 1623, and was prob. the mo. of some that were d. and of all his ch. as nam. in his will of 7 Mar. 1656, Alexander, Miles, Josiah, and Charles, beside d. Lora. Of these last two, we kn. nothing, and if indulg. in conject. we might assume only, that both were old eno. to have been notic. in the ensuing days. He was constant. engag. in public serv. and for 19 yrs. was an assit. and had a mission ot London in 1625, where he could effect little on acco. of the raging of the plague, and early in the spring foll. he came back. Of his character, wh. partook, in no small degree, of the ancient heroic, Belknap in Americ. Biog. furnishes excellent illustr. and just anaysis. He d. 3 Oct. 1656. A copy of his will and inv. may be seen in Geneal. Reg. V. 335-8.

He was rep. 1690; and d. 3 Oct. 1713, at the age of 72. JOSEPH, Stonington, younger br. of the preced. was yet old eno. to be propound. for freem. 1669, may be, tho. not prob. that s.-in-law of William Mead of Roxbury, in whose will of 1683 he is nam. "tho. undutiful," for we can hardly doubt, that our Stonington man had some yrs. bef. m. Hannah Lord, or even third w. a Prentice. But no ch. is giv. him. ROBERT, Newport, adm. an inhab. early in 1639, on the freem's list 1655, by w. Avis had John b. Aug. 1645. He was perhaps br. of the elder Thomas, yet we must not be too confident, for Farmer ment. a ROBERT of Dorchester wh. as i find had Thomas, and whose d. Prudence was b. 14 June 1659; but he weas of town's poor 1689. ROBERT, s. of the first Thomas his youngest but one, the ch. mem. of 1677, was the youthful soldier, 1676, to wh. the Ind. capt. prince Nanunteno made reproachf,. ansr. as Hubbard tells. He d. 25 Oct. 1724, aged 70, had Robert, b. 7 Dec. 1689. [[167]] H. C. 1712.

SAMUEL, Gloucester, br. of the preced. m. 16 Nov. 1686, Hannah, whose surname Babson saw not, had bef. 1695 five ch. of wh. only Ebenezer is nam. and in that yr. he rem. to Amesbury. STANYAN, STANNYAN, STANIAN, or STANION, ANTHONY, Boston, had been of Exeter, by w. Mary, says our town rec. had John, b. 16, bapt. 24 July 1642, our chl. rec. show. that he was mem. of the ch. of E. and thither he soon went back, had there Mary, wh. m. 10 Jan. 1666, John Pickering jr. and perhaps more there or at Hampton, where he was in 1654, m. sec. w. 1 Jan. 1656, Ann, wid. of William Partridge. of Salisbury, and took the o. of alleg. 1678. In his MS. Farmer says he was freem. 1644, wh. does not mean of Mass. but of E. where he was town clk. 1647, and rep. of H. in 1654.

His wid. is nam. in the will of her f. 27 Mar. 1691. ABRAHAM, Dorchester 1658, rem. to Weymouth 1660, thence to Mendon, was freem. 1673, by w. Hannah had Ephraim, b. 2 Sept. 1678; and Mary, 8 Feb. 1681; by w. Mary had Benjamin, 27 Dec. 1682; and Hannah, 13 May 1686; but by a third w.

If it be object. that these three ws. hav. ch. seem too much for one man's felicity, conject. may be indulg. that the h. of the last w. may have been s. of the former Abraham. EDWARD, Braintree, early, says Farmer. JEFFREY, Weymouth, had Martha, wh. was bur. 17 Feb. 1640. JOHN, Weymouth, freem. 1648, ahd Rebecca, b. 27 Nov. 1639, and Joseph, 19 Feb. 1642. Farmer names, also, Increase, of wh. no other report is found. But prob. he had, also, John; and d. in 1658, or bef. I guess the name of his w. was Margery, for a deed of two parcels of ld. in W. 10 Jan. 1659 is found in our Vol. III. of the registr. convey. to James Priest of W. by Margery Staples, wid. of W. JOHN, Weymouth, [[169]] prob. s. of the preced. by w. Sarah had John, b. 3 Nov. 1672; and Thomas, 19 Apr. 1674; and perhaps he rem. across the brook that div. W. from Braintree, where one John d. 30 Aug. 1692, and ano. John d. 5 Nov. 1700. JOSEPH, Taunton, prob. s. of John the first of Weymouth, had John, b. 28 Jan. 1671; Amy or Ann, 13 Apr. 1674; Mary.. 26 Jan. 1678; Joseph, 12 Mar. 1680; Hannah, 17 May 1682; and Nathaniel, 22 Mar. 1685. SAMUEL, Braintree, m. 30 Aug. 1652, Mary Coles, had Mary, b. 24 Sept. 1655; Rachel, 31 Oct. 1657; and Sarah, 10 July 1660. THOMAS, Fairfield 1645, is on freem.'s list 1669. He had by w. Mary, Thomas; Mary, wh. m. Josiah Harvey; ano. d. m. John Beach; Mehitable; and John; but the order of success. is not kn. He d. bef. 1688; was a man of import. and spirit eno. to prosecute Dept. Gov. Ludlow, not long bef. his rem. to Virg. for defam. in report. that the ws. of S. was a wtich. The trial for satisfact. of both parties was in the neighb. Col. of New Haven, where the Court wisely held, "that there was no proof that goodw. S. was a witch," mulct. L. to pay L10 to the h. for repar. of his w's name, and L5 for his trouble and cost. Happily in a later day the New Haven Col. pass. unharm. by the doleful delus. spread in Mass. by rampant vanity and insane apprehension. Four of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Yale, and three at some other N. E. Coll. says Farmer. STAPLETON, SAMUEL, Newport, came from London, hav. m. Mary White of Newport Pagnel, Co. Bucks, and here had Mary, b. 7 Feb. 1679; Ann, 20 Jan 1680; Mary, and Elizabeth tw. 7 June 1681; and Samuel, 28 Sept. 1682.

Maynard dec. £10 ea. as they come to 16 yrs. of age; to the childr. of s. Thomas dec. £10 apiece, as they come to 18 yrs. of age, as also to the four youngest of them an addit. legacy; to his gr.ch. Simon Eyre L6 per an. until he came to 18 yrs. to help him to learning in the tongues, &c. to d. Elizabeth Ferniside, w. of John, a resid. dev. to be div. betw. her three ch. to d.

Comfort, and his heirs, the ho. and ld. at Ashford; and to d. Elizabeth the ld. on wh. her present dwel. ho. is built, from the hi, way back to the mill pond, and to his d.-in=law, wid. of Thomas. Of this will Mr. Trask has pub. much larger abstr. than mine, in Geneal, Reg. IX. 223, 4. COMFORT, Boston, s. of the first Comfort, brot. by his f. from Eng. where he was b. a. 1624, educ. at Harv. Coll. where he took his A. B. 1647, in the Catal. call. Consolantius, is one of the five fellows nam. in the Chart. of H. C. in 1650, and soon went home, and was benefic. at Carlisle, Co. Cumberland, and from that liv. eject. by the Act of Uniform. 1662, retn. to a preach. station at Lewes, Co. Sussex, where he d. says Calamy, 1711. COMFORD, Middletown, s. of Thomas of Charlestown, m. Rahcel Harris, had Comfort, b. 1670; Mary, 1672; Hannah, 24 Mar. 1674; Joseph, 1676; Benjamin, 1679; Rachel, 1681; Thomas, 1684; and Daniel, 1689; Hinman, 239, mak. his wid. Mary, when he d. 18 Oct. 1693. But I judge, that he was first of Boston, here by w. Mary, prob. d. of Joseph Weld, as more exactly our rec. show, bef. his rem. had Comfort, b. 15 Nov. 1666; Joseph, 7 Mar. 1668, perhaps d. soon; Mary, 14 Mar. 1669, d. soon; and Mary, again, 18 Jan. 1672. Of course this Comfort of Boston might be thot. a differ. man from him of M.; yet he could hardly be that comfort, the gr. of Harv. But he may, in spite of Hinman, well be the Middletown man. COMFORT, Dedham, prob. s. of John of Bosotn, m. Mary, d. of the sec. Simon Stone of Watertown, had a ch. bapt. 20 Feb. 1687; Lydia, 7 June 1688; and Hannah, 6 July 1690; all at Watertown, as Bond, in Hist. 585, correct. on p. 951, exhibits.

Of the earlier w. and a d. that Winsor names, I find no trace. JOHN, Boston, s. of the first Comfort, prob. b. in Eng. had, says Winsor, been at Duxbury 1643, and Bridgewater 1645, by w. Martha had Comfort, b. 4 Feb. 1662; John, 7 Dec. 1664; Comfort, again, 15 Nov. 1666; and Benjamin, 19 Aug. 1667, prob. rem.; may have had others earlier, and ano.

He prob. is that kinsman, to wh. his gr.f. gave the "Book of Martyrs." His s. Thomas, Jonathan, and Benjamin contin. the name at N. L. and Norwich. The progeny of Jonathan have been not. for longev. THOMAS, Boston, younger br. of the first Comfort, a surgeon, had come prob. soon aft. 1636, from Canterbury, Co. Kent, and brot. w.

ISAAC, Watertown 1630, came prob. with Sir Richard Saltonstall in the fleet, was adm. freem. 18 May of next yr. tho. he may have been drawn thither as much by regard for Winthrop, since he was not a dist. neighb. of the Gov. in their native ld. He was of Neyland, Co. suffk. where his two eldest ch. were bapt.; Mary, 6 Jan 1627; and Ann, 5 Oct. 1628. Here by w. Mary (tho. Dr. Cogswell in Geneal. Reg.

HENRY, Cambridge, nam. in Holmes's Hist. as of that town 1632, 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. VII. p. 10; but as the name never appears again, I think he d. soon, or perhaps went home.

Joseph Willard, Yale 1714, min. of the town; when the others, Phineas, and Isaac, were by thwm carr. capt. to Canada. Phineas was much disting. for milit. serv. JOSIAH, Braintree, perhaps br. of the preced d. 19 June 1677. NATHAN, the first b. of Andover, d. there, Feb. 1719, says the rec. wh. calls him cornet; but I find not evid. of any w. or ch. NATHANIEL, Dover, perhaps s. of John of the same, tho. Mr. Quint marks him as first [[188]] of the stock, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 4 Oct. 1672; and he m. 20 Dec. 1677, Mehitable, d. of Edward Colcord, had Samuel, Edward, and perhaps others. NATHANIEL, Guilford 1685-95, was s. of Wiliam, NICHOLAS, Charlestown, d. 17 May 1646, as Farmer says; but I doubt he was not long a resid. OBADIAH, Stamford eldest s. of Thomas of the same, had Thoams, b. 1679; Ephraim, 1681; and some others, of wh. or the mo. I hear not the names. RICHARD, Concord, perhaps that s. of Thomas, the London armorer, d. 1683. If my conject. be right, his wid. and only d. says Willard, in note to Barry, went home. RICAHRD, Taunton, had Richard, b. 23 Feb. 1670; Mary, 8 July 1672; Thomas, 3 Feb. 1675; Thomasin, 3 July 1677; Nathaniel, 30 July 1680; nam. 1689 as one of the inhab. to wh.

His wid Rebecca wh. m. 28 Feb. foll. Simon Orne, had admin. and d. Sarah is ment. SAMUEL, Marlborough, s. of Richard, perhaps brot. by his f. was a deac. early in eighteenth centu. THOMAS, Sudbury, may be the youth in the Abigail, from London, 1635, aged 12, perhaps s. of Thomas of London, the armorer, may have gone home and come again, with Cyprian, and was freem. 1665, by w. Mary had Ann, b. 20 Mar. 164; Thomas, 14 Apr. 1665; John, 23 Apr. 1667; Cyprian, 19 Apr. 1670; and Jacob, 1 Mary. 1674; was freem. 1665; and town clk.15 yrs. Barry thinks he was first at Charlestown, a blacksmith, and late in life liv. at Stow, but at Sudbury had been offer. ld. to keep a sch. THOMAS, Stamford 1641, had Thomas, Benjamin, Joseph, Ephraim, and Obadiah the eldest; but d. 19 Aug 1658, when all were so young,that without nam. one, he gave est. to w. to bring them, up. THOMAS, Boston 1670, a baker, was an early inhab. by w. Sarah had John, b. 15 May 1648; Thomas, 28 Dec. 1651, d. young; Jonas, 27 Oct. 1653; Aaron, 28 Feb. 1655; Sarah, 31 Aug. 1657, d. soon; Thomas, again, 20 May 1658; Moses, 22 Apr. 1659; Joseph, 17 Apr. 1661; and Sarah, 8 Dec. 1663. THOMAS, Guilford 1650, s. of John of the same, prob. b. in Eng. rem. to Killingworth, or as by its first sett. call. from their native place in O. E. in 1665, Kenilworth, but why the name was degrad. to its mod. from is beyond the knowl. of any in the last three or four generat. yet easily conject. He was among the freem. 1669, rep. 1671 of K. but bef. that planta. was sett. he had, by w. Mary, sev. ch. b. at G. tho. larger pt. may be claim, possib. by K.

Rec. I. 113 and 120, selectman 1642, and aft.; rep. 1644. He had built many large sh. at London, bef. he came hither, I suppose 1632, for in Jan. aft. Emanuel Downing, writ. in London to the Rt. Hon. Sir John Coke, princ. Secr. of State, that from high author. he hears, that he is "so able a man, as they believe there is hardly such an other to be found in this kingdom." See the letter in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 324. He had bapt. at Salem, Issac, and Mary, not perhaps tw. 26 Jan. 1640; Ruth, 7 Mar. 1641, wh. m. 7 Oct. 1663, Stephen, Glover; beside James, bef. ment. prob. the oldest, and William, certain the youngest, but whether all were by w.

WILLIAM, Newbury, may be that passeng. in the Confidence from Southampton [[190]] 1638, aged 21, prob. br. of John, a fellow-passeng. both from Coversham in Oxfordsh. and was not, I think, as Farmer said, first sett. at Salem, freem. with John, 18 May 1642, by w. Elizabeth d. of Samuel Bidfield, m. 19 May 1645, had says Coffin, Bidfield, b. 16 Mar. 1649, d. young; John, 19 Nov. 1650; and Samuel, 18 Nov. 1652; and d. 19 May 1653, prob. sudden, as his will has that date. It was pro. 30 June foll. names only ch. Jon and Samuel, made w. Elizabeth extrix. WILLIAM, Killingworth 1665, whither he rem. from Guilford, br. of Thomas of the same, b. in Eng. freem. 1669, m. 3 Mar. 1653, Mary, d. of John Meigs, had John, b.3 Mar. 1654; Samuel, 1 Mar. 1656; Nathaniel, 10 May 1659, d. soon; Nathaniel, again, 29 Oct. 1661; Judith, 1 Oct. 1668; Josiah, 8 Dec. 1670; and Mary, 2 Nov. 1677. When he d. is not mark. but it was prob. bef. 1685, when among proprs. of G. no other of the name, beside Nathaniel is found. Yet he may have been of K. at that time, and giv. his G. est. to Nathaniel. Others of his ch. however did settle at G. His w. or wid. d. 30 Apr. 1703. WILLIAM, Charlestown, m. 1 July 1673, Abigail, Green, so comm. a name that it is perilous to conject. wh. was her f. WILLIAM, Gloucester, eldest s. of James of the same, m. 15 June 1682, Abigail, prob. d. of William Sargent; and Mr. Babson says he d. 24 Sept. 1701. A wid.

STUART, ALEXANDER, Charelestown, shipwright, by w. Hannah, nam. with ch. James, and John in the will, Jan. 1669, of her gr.f. Richard Prichard of C. of wh.

To C. he had come from ano. town, not kn. as I conject. from that bapt. when he was not a ch. mem and rem. to Marlborough, there m. 22 May 1688, Deborah, wid. of Daniel Farrabas, or Farrowbush, d. of Jon Bediat, the first, of Sudbury. But a very dilig. inquir. A. H. Ward, Esquire, calls her his third w. yet I kn. not the sec. He had by Deborah a d. and d. 6 Apr. 1731, his w. hav. d. ten or more prob. eleven yrs. preced. DANIEL, Barnstable, was their bef. 1666, as Mr. Hamblin says, and prob. had ch. for I find many in a third generat. but kn. nothing of sec. DUNCAN, Newbury, shipwright, perhaps br. of Alexander, had Martha, b. 4 Apr. 1659; Charles, 5 June 1661; James, 8 Oct. 1664; Henry, 1 May 1669; rem. to Rowley, had three more, [[191]] and d. 1717, aged, as Coffin says, prob. from exagger. tradit. 100. JAMES, Plymouth, came in the Fortune 1621, prob. without w. or ch. as he has, in the div. of lds. 1624, only a single sh. and we may well suppose he had soon d. or rem. as in the div. of cattle, 1627, his name is not found among the 156, compos. the total populat. JAMES, Middlebury, L. I. 1656. JAMES, Weymouth, by w. Ann had Susanna, b. 23 May 1669; JAMES, 26 June 1672; and Ann, 22 Jan. 1675; possib. others earlier. JAMES, Norwalk 1687, eldest s. of Robert, was ens. in 1713. JAMES, Newbury, s. of Duncan, by w. Elizabeth had James, b. 29 July 1688; and Charles, 10 Jan. 1690. JOHN, Springfield, perhpas as early as 1650, m. Sarah, d. of the first John Stiles; sw. alleg. 1678, and d. 21 Apr. 1690. His wid. m. next yr. John Sacket of Northampton. JOHN, Newbury, perhaps s. of Alexnader, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 11 Dec. 1680, and his w. d. in few days; aft. wh. perhaps he rem. to Rowley. JOHN, Norwalk 1708, s. of Robert JOSEPH, Salisbury, by w. Mary had Joseph, b. 19 Dec. 1667. RICAHRD, by Farmer is ment. as of ar. co. 1652, but to me the exist. seems shadowy. ROBERT, Norwalk, mov. in from Milford, where he had not been long, buying est. in N. 1660, m. 12 June 1661, Bethia, d. of Thomas Rumball of Stratford, had James, b. 29 Mar. 1662; Abigail, Aug. 1666; John, 18 Mar. 1668; Deborah, May 1669; Elizabeth Sept. 1671; and Phebe, Feb. 1673, or 4; and was liv. 1687. From him descend. the late learned theolog. profess. Moses Stuart, tho. the degr. are less sure. WILLIAM, Lynn, d. 18 Mar. 1664, and his wid. Sarah ret. inv. 29 June foll. A capt. S. is nam. by Sewall, in his Diary, as d. early in Aug. 1693. Of the gr. historic name, the clan of Stuart, were Austin, Charles, Neil, and Robert, prisoners of war from the sad field of 3 Sept. 1651, at Worcester, Cromwell's crowning mercy, sent to Boston, where they arr. 13 May 1652, to be sold, but not to perpet. servit. as John Cotton gently suggests to Oliver. I can feel no doubt, that the gr. majority, betw. three quarters and nine tenths, d. of scurvy or broken heart; and not one in fifty of these young men left progeny. STICKNEY, or STICKNEE, AMOS, Newbury, was from Hull Co. York, s. of William, perhaps b. in Eng. is said to have been first at Boston, next at Rowley, of course, with his f. but at N. m. 24 June 1663, Sarah Morse, prob. d. of Anthony the first, had John, b. 23 June 1666; Andrew, Dec. 1667; Amos, 3 Aug. 1669; Joseph, 14 Apr. 1671; Benjamin, 4 Apr. 1673; Sarah, 19 Oct. 1674, d. next yr.; Hannah, 31 Mar. 1676; Moses, 26 Nov. 1677; and perhaps Sarah, again, posthum. sw. alleg. 25 May 1669, and he d. 29 Aug. 1678. His wid. m. 17 Dec. 1684, Stephen Acreman. ANDREW, Newbury, s. of the preced. by w. Rebecca had Rebecca, b. 16 Jan. 1693, and his w. d. a few days later; [[192]] but of him I find no more, exc. his tak. sec. w. Elizabeth eldest d. of sec. James Chute, and d. at Rowley 29 Apr. 1727. BENJAMIN, Rowley, br. of the preced. m. Mary Palmer, had six s. and done d. and d. 5 Mar. 1756. JOHN, Rowley, s. of William, m. Hannah, d. of that capt. Samuel Brocklebank, which was k. in Philip's war, had John, Samuel, and five ds. JOHN, Newbury, s. of Amos, m. 10 Dec. 1689, Mary Poor, d. prob. of sec. John of the same, had Mary, b. 1 July 1691; John, 30 July 1693; Sarah, 10 May 1696; Prudence, 15 Sept. 1699; and Joseph 19 Dec. 1700. * SAMUEL, Bradford, eldest s. of William b. in Eng. rep. 1689 and 90, m. 18 Feb. 1654, Julian, or Susan, d. of Richard Swan of Rowley, had four ch. of wh. I see the name of Samuel only, b. 5 Apr. 1663, at R. and aft. rem. to B. by sec. w. m. 6 Apr. 1674, Prudence Gage, wid. of Benjamin, and d. of Thomas Leaver, town clk. of R. by which he had three more ch. of wh. no names are kn. He was freem. 1682, and d. 1715, leav. wid. Prudence. SAMUEL, Bradford, eldest s. of the preced. was a man of good serv. as selectman, had w. Mary, and it is said, twelve, ch. of wh. I see not the names, exc. that the first s. was Thomas, bat. 1695; and that Sarah and Mary were also bapt. that yr.; Richard, 5 June 1709; Abraham and Jonathan, perhaps tw. 21 Jan. 1711; and Dorothy, 6 Apr. 1712. THOMAS, Newbury, s. of William, sw. alleg. 25 May 1669, was of Bradford, when freem. 1685. WILLIAM, Rowley, was adm. of Boston ch. 6 Jan. 1639, hav. come prob. the yr. preced. from Hull in Yorksh. and on 24 Nov. aft. was with others dism. to found the new ch. at R. was freem. 7 Oct. 1640, but prob. he brot. w. and one or more ch. from Eng. His w. was Elizabeth and of the ch. are kn. Samuel; John, b. 1640; Andrew, 1644; Thomas, 1646; Mary; Faith; and Mercy; beside the first ment. Amos; and he d. 15 Jan. 1665. but the order of success. is uncert. and perhaps he had other ch. than Farmer could tell. Faith m. 10 June 1674, at Bradford, Samuel Gage, and an Elizabeth S. m. 21 July 1680, also at B. Daniel Tenny. STILEMAN, or STYLEMAN, ELLIAS, Salem, an early sett. even as Felt suggests, may have come in the fleet wiht Higginson, 1629, prob. brot. s. Elias, but of his w. Judith we hear no more; freem. 3 July 1632, licens. to keep an ordinary in 1635, when he was constable, gave up prob. that employm. in 1653, and was made clk. of the Court for the Co. and d. 1662. His inv. was tak. 7 Nov. of that yr. A very dilig. inquir. in Essex Inst. II. 163, is confid. that he d. bef. June 1639, tho. he states that the inv. was not brot. in bef. Nov. 1663. Yet, as E. S. jr. appears in many appraisem. 1653 and aft. I doubt much. * ELIAS, Salem, perhaps s. of the preced. b. a. 1617, adm. of the ch. 18 Aug. 1639, and freem. 18 May 1642, ahd Elias, bapt. 15 Mar. 1640; and Elizabeth hw. m. a. 1687, John Jordan; was of ar. co. 1645, rem. perhaps not bef. 1663 to Portsmouth; m. sec. w. 10 Apr. 1667, Ruth Maynard, had Ruth, wh. m. 5 Sept. 1687, William, Buswell or Bussell. In the list of [[193]] early sett. of N. E. pr. Geneal. Reg. I. 139, E. S. is by mistake call. constable of Boston 1673. The name of seven chos. that yr. to that office have only Skarlet and Shrimpton of that initial fam. letter, and not one Elias. He was almost always in office; was rep. 1667 and five yrs. more, a counsel; under Presid. Cutt, or Gov. Cranfield, 1681 or 2 a capt. and major, rep. again 1690, and d. 19 Dec. 1695, aged 78. RICHARD, Cambridge, by w. Hannah had Samuel, b. 23 May 1644, bapt. at Salem, 20 July 1651, he hav. rem. thither, and soon aft. to Portsmouth, where by w. Mary were b. Mary, 6 Jan. 1658; Elizabeth 8 May 1663; Sarah, 30 June 1665; and Richard, 20 Mar. 1668; and d. 11 Oct. 1678. Prob. he as br. of the preced. tho. sometimes the name is print. Stillman. STILES, or STYLES, BENAJMIN, Woodbury, s. of Francis, m. Elizabeth Rogers of Milford, perhaps d. of Eleazer, had Sarah, bapt. May 1683; Thomas, Nov. 1685, prob. d. bef. his f.; Ruth; Abigail, Apr. 1689; and Francis; rem. to Stratford, there d. 13 Apr. 1711, and his wid. d. 13 June 1719. EPHRAIM, Stratford, eldest s. of Francis, freem. 168, m. 8 July 1669, Ruth, wid. of Obadiah Wheeler, and afterwards m. Bathsheba Tomlinson, d. of Henry, by wh. he had, and left, at his d. 21 June 1714, three ds.; Elizabeth b. 18 Feb. 1687; Sarah, 4 Nov. 1693; and Phebe, 25 Mar. 1696; wh. all m. His est. was large. EPHRAIM, Springfield, s. of John the sec. m. 1694, Abigail Neal, d. of Edward of Westfield, had Rachel, b. 21 May 1695; Issac, 6 Oct. 1696; Ephraim, 5 Dec. 1699; Abigail, 15 Mar. 1704, d. young; and Hannah 31 July 1708. FRANCIS, Windsor 1636, one of the first freem. of Conn. 1640, had come from London, where he was a carpenter, early in the yr. preced. aged 35, in the Christian, and sat down short tme at Dorchester. Prob. he was s. of Thomas of Milbrook, near Ampthill in Co. Bedford, bapt. 1 Aug. 1602, wh. makes us presume, that the age of the London rec. should be 33, as the reg. of the parish certif. to me by the min. in 1842, deserves much higher credit than that of the custom h. I presume to brot. w. Rahcel, unless she was sis. aged 28 , but two ws. and two ch. beside the four brs. in the same sh. are diffic. to be approp. Cothren, p. 694, makes him, from fam. tradit. to be engag. in prepar. of a park for Richard Saltonstall, not Sir Richard, wh. is a mistake, for Suffk. reg. of deeds. Vol. I. 98, has the release of all demands by him up to date of Sept. 1647, as well against Sir Richard, as s. Robert. He work. I suppose under direct. of Robert, wh. was less judicious than his elder br. He made over to Robert Saltonstall, by deed dat. 22 Sept. 1647 all his lds. at W. includ. 1500 acr. in one parcel on the E. side of the riv. but the debt exceed the val. He than calls hims. of Saybrook, yet bec. three of his four s. were aft. at Stratford. [[194]] Cothren tells, tha the rem. a. 1640 to Stratford, wh. must be sev. yrs. too early (as tradit. oft. is), for Ephraim was b. at W. 3 Aug. 1645, and his is the only b. found in the old rec. He was never of S. and he prob. at W. d. 1653, or earlier. of childr. he had Ephraim, Samuel, Benjamin, Thomas, Hannah, and Mary, wh. m. Hope Washburn of Derby; Hannah m. Edward Hinman. Her mo. was Sarah, as Hinman, 141, tells. She m. Robert Clark of Stratford, and by her will of 5 June 1677 left little prop. to disp. among her ch. the inv. of 2 Feb. 1682, showing only L85. HENRY, Windsor, eldest br. of the preced. bapt. 27 Nov. 1593, at Milbrook, near Ampthill in Co. Bedford, a carpenter, adm. to be citizen of London on 2d Tuesday of Apr. 1632, emb. in the Christian, at London, Mar. 1635, aged 40, says the London custom ho. rec. with John, Thomas, and Francis, his brs. also, and went with the earliest migrat. from Dorchester, where he could have liv. but few mos. was never m. is nam. on the first page of Conn. rec. as hav. trad. a musket with an Ind. in Apr. 1636, which he as direct. to regain. He was k. by casual shot of a gun in a milita. train, Cothren from the fam. mem. says, 3 Oct. 1651. HENRY, Windsor, s. of John, brot. by his f. in the Christian 1635, at age of 3 yrs. freem. 1669; had ch. wh. d. with the mo. whose name in the Stiles MS. is call. Ketch, of Stratford; and for sec. w. he m. 16 Apr. 1663, Elizabeth Wilcockson, prob. d. of William had Elizabeth b. 30 Nov. 1664; Margaret, 6 Feb. 1667; Mary, 28 Sept. 1669; Mindwell, 19 Dec. 1671, wh. d. bef. 13 yrs.; and Samuel, 16 May 1674. To these Cothren adds Henry, wh. was the first b. Joseph, Benjamin, John, and Jonathan, but without desirab. dates of b. tho. of some he gives day of d. and approxim. of age, and says the f. d. 22 Aug. 1724, aged 95, wh. is perhaps less exagger. than usual, not more than three yrs. to large. ISAAC, Stratford, s. of John the first, of Windsor, liv. first at Wethersfield 1665, and when freem. 1670, had, says Cothren, from Presdt. Stiles's MSS. Isaac, b. 1663; John; Joseph; Jonatahn, 20 Mar. 1688; Sarah; Lydia or Deborah; and Hannah; but he is not able to inform us of the name of the mo. or dates of sev. ch. JOHN, Windsor, s. of Thomas, bapt. at Milbrook, Co. Bedford, 25 Dec. 1595, came with his brs. Francis, Henry, and Thomas, in the Christian from London, Mar. 1635, tho. his age in the custom ho. rec. is call. 35, wh. I judge to be liable to correct. by exchange. the yrs. of Henry and John; he also brot. w. prob. Jane, aged 35; and s. Henry, 3 yrs. and John, 9 mos. Of course he first liv. at Dorchester or Boston, and prob. rem. with others of D. by ld. to Conn. Beside the ch. he brot. from Eng. he ahd Issac, and Sarah, and d. 4 June 1662. His wid. whose name is not kn. d. 3 Sept. 1674. Cothren says his will was of 30 May 1662. Sarah m. first, John Stewart of Springfield next 1691, 1691, John Sackett of Westfield. Fam. tradit. [[195]] claims for the w. of John, that she was the first Eng. woman that ever stept ashore at Conn. wh. is as reasonab. as the similar stories for Mary Chilton at Plymouth, and Ann Pollard at Boston. But the Story of Stiles is far less prob. JOHN, Windsor, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. m. 28 Oct. 1658, Dorcas, d. perhaps youngest, of Henry Burt of Springfield, had Sarah b. 12 Sept. 1661; Hannah, 12 Mar. 1664; John, 10 Dec. 1665; beside Ephraim and Thomas, not rec. was freem. 1668, and d. 8 Dec. 1683. Hannah m. 21 Jan. 1687, Samuel Bliss of Springfield; and Sarah m. 1 or 5 May 1681, Ephraim Bancroft, and next, Thomas Phillips. JOHN, Windsor, eldest s. of the preced. m. Ruth Bancroft, had Ruth, b. 5 Feb. 1691; John, 17 Dec. 1692; Margaret, 23 Feb. 1695; Isaac, 30 July 1697; Ebenezer, 7 Apr. 1701; Noah, 31 Jan. 1703; Abel, d. soon; Hannah, and ano. tw. both d. soon, as had a pair tw. some yrs. bef.; Abel, again, 5 or 10 Mar. 1709; Hannah, again, 9 Oct. 1711; and Benoni, 1714, d. soon. He was gr.f. of Rev. Ezra, disting, equal. for his extensive crudit. and amiable credulity, wh. was b. 29 Dec. 1727, eldest ch. of Isaac, and only one by w. Kezia, d. of Rev. Edward Taylor of Westfield, wh. d. five days aft. The chronology of too many of the fourteen ch. belong. to John, is so strangely confus. in Cothren, 697, that it defies restorat. JOHN, Boxford, freem. 1690, may have been s. of Robert of the same; but certain. Dorchester 1692, perhaps was s. of Robert of the same; but certain. is beyond reach, and all that can be kn. is, that his w. was Mary, that he had John, Joseph, Elizabeth Mary, Nathaniel, and Nehemiah, of wh. Joseph, Mary, and Nathaniel d. of smallpox in the fatal season of Jan. 1721-2. ROBERT, Boxford, m. 4 Oct. 1660, Elizabeth d. of John Frye of Andover; was of Rowley 1661, but perhaps rem. to Dorchester, where I find one of this name 1663, yet in my opin. this Dorchester man was older than him of B. possib. but not prob. was s. of John the first; and inscript. on gr. stone is of his d. 2 Nov. 1710, and age, a. 91, that may seem something too high. SAMUEL, Stratford, br. of Benjamin, in the freem's list of 1669, m. 31 Dec. 1664, says Cothren, Elizabeth Sherwood, but d. childless, prob. bef. 1682, as in 1673 he had agreed with others to begin the sett. of Woodbury, and was not in the list of 1682. THOMAS, youngest br. of Francis, Henry, and John, came in the same ship with them, aged 20, says the custom ho. rec. but that of his bapt. 7 Feb. 1613, in the native parish, would give him two yrs. more. yet it would be of higher interest, to kn. where he liv. on our side of the water, and what could be told of him, beyond the single fact, that, at the assault on the Pequods in their last shelter of the swamp, 1637, he was shot, but not hurt, by an arrow strik. in his neckerchief. See Mason's hist. of that war. He may have been of Windsor, but it is at least equal. prob. that he was of Dorchester, neither town hav. proof or presumpt. in its favor. Had he [[196]] left descend. one might hope to hear of the birth-place of the ch. Some slight note is seen in Stile's MSS. indeed that he went to Flushing, L. I. had two ds. no s. THOMAS, Stratford, s. of Francis, had w. wh. d. bef. him, but no ch. and he d. early in 1683. THOMAS, Windsor, youngest s. of John the sec. m. Bethia Hanmer, d. perhaps of John of Scituate, as the fam. tradit. may indicate, had no ch. and d. 1745. Eleven, of this name had been gr. at Yale, in 1851, and one at Harv. STILLMAN, * GEORGE, Hadley, m. 1686, Rebecca, d. of the first Philip Smith, had George, b. 1686; Rebecca, 14 Jan. 1688; Mary, 12 July 1689; Nathaniel, 1 July 1691; John, 19 Feb. 1693; Sarah, 28 Dec. 1694; Martha, 28 Nov. 1696; Ann, 6 Apr. 1699; Elizabeth 19 Oct. 1700; Hannah, and Lydia, tw. 7 Nov. 1702; and Benjamin, 29 July 1705; all at H. of wh. town he as rep. 1698; rem. to Wethersfield, where he was a promin. merch. and d. 17 Nov. 1728, in his 74th yr.

GEORGE, Ipswich 1668, m. 22 July 1676, Alice Phillips, had George, b. 17 Aug. 1677, d. within one yr.; Richard, 10 Mar. 1679; Elizabeth 11 Jan. 1681; Mercy, 11 Mar. 1683; Alice, 18 Feb. 1685; Sarah, 14 June. 1691; John, 27 Aug. 1694; and Mary, 4 Mar. 1696. JOHN, the freem. of 1645 I can assign to no resid. JOHN, Charlestown, with w. Abigail join. the ch. 22 Feb. 1685, and had John, Joseph, Benjamin, Jonathan, Abigail, Susanna, and Deborah, all bapt. the Sunday foll.

JOSEPH, Dover 1665-75, by Mr. Quint, a good judge of the case, is thot. to be Stevenson. STINT. See Stent. STIRK, GEORGE, the gr. of Harv. 1646, is all unkn. to us by f. and mo. br. sis. or friend, but W. Winthrop on his Catal. had quot. from MS. of Rev. Andrew Eliot, "that Mr. S. was an emin. chemist, and wrote sev. Latin treatis." As he did not have his A. M. we may presume he went to Eng. early; and that he was d. 1698 is almost our whole rec. of his life. But it is highly prob. that the true name was Starkey, wh. see. STOCKBRIDGE, BENAJMIN, Scituate, s. of Charles the first, m. 1701, Mary Tilden, had Benjamin, b. 1704, a physician of emin. and perhaps other ch.

He was one of the first selectmen of the new town of Hanover, sett. off from S. 1727, and d. it is thot. 7 Apr. 1731. JOHN, Scituate, wheelwright, came in the Blessing from London 1635, aged 27, with w. Ann, 21, and s.

From the rec. we find the d. of his w. 20 Apr. 1689 "murd. by her h." whence it is safer to conclude, that he was insane. HUGH, Warwick, m. Abigail, a d. of Peter Bassaker, or Busicot, as the R.

NATHANIEL, Beverly, perhaps s. of John of the same, may have been of Ipswich 1648, and was freem. 1668 He may have been the same, wh. by w. Mary, had at Boston, Nathaniel, b. 25 Mar. 1664. NATHANIEL, Guilford, s. of John of the same, was made freem. 1677, m. 10 July 1673, Mary, d. of George Bartlett of the same, had Joseph, b. 11 June 1674; Ebenezer, 21 Aug. 1676; Nathaniel, 7 Oct. 1678; Ann, 29 Jan. 1681, d. at 3 yrs.; Caleb, 26 Mar. 1683, d. next yr.; Caleb, again, 10 Nov. 1685; Noah, 9 Nov. 1687, d. under 16 yrs.; John, 7 Oct. 1689, d. bef. 10 yrs; Ann, again , 17 June 1692; and Timothy, 16 Mar. 1696; and d. 11 Aug. 1709. His wid. d. 1724. NATHANIEL, Cambridge, s. of John of the same, m. 25 Apr. 1684, Sarah Wait of Malden, perhaps d. of Hon. John, had Nathaniel, b. 15 Oct. 1685; Ebenezer, 16 Apr. 1688; Jonathan, 24 Mar. 1690; Isaac; John, 13 Apr. 1702; Mary, 19 Dec. 1705; Sarah 12 0ct. 1708; Hezekiah, 5 Mar. 1711; and Barry says his will, of 23 June 1732, was pro. 2 Nov. foll. NATHANIEL, Harwich, s. of Simon the sec. m. 15 Dec. 1698, Reliance, youngest ch. of Gov. Hinckley, and this union prob. led him to be first min. of that town, where a ch. was gath. 1700; ord. 16 Nov. 1700, bef. wh. Mather's Hecatompolis would persuade us he had three sev. flocks at once. He had Hannah; Nathan, b. 18 Feb. 1708, H. C. 1726; Nathaniel; Mary; Reliance; Thankful; and four other ds. but of the last eight ch. no dates are found; and he d. 8 Feb. 1755, aged 88. His wid. d. 24 May 1759. NICHOLAS, Boston, by w. Hannah, had Hannah, b. 8 Jan. 1652; Josiah, 4. Feb. 1654; Hopestill, 7 Jan. 1656; Abigail, 20 Nov. 1658; Elizabeth 25 Sept. 1661; Benjamin, 17 Feb. 1664; was a shipwright, and perhaps rem. Barry says that his d. Mary m. 1671 Isaac Johnson of Charlestown; but such d. is not kn. by me. PETER, Warwick, s. of Hugh of the same, m. 25 June 1696, Elizabeth d. of John Shaw, had Elizabeth b 25 Mar. 1697; Peter, 22 Oct. 1698; Sarah, 17 Feb. 1700; Abigail, 15 Sept. 1701; Priscilla, 2 Feb. 1703; and John, 29 Sept. 1704. RICHARD, Hatfield, k. by the Ind. 19 Oct. 1675. ROBERT, Salem 1652, perhaps br. perhaps s. of John of the same, by w. Sarah had Samuel, b. 23 Jan. 1658; Robert, 24 Jan. 1662; Benjamin, 28 Feb. 1665; and others, says Barry, but names them not. One was Sarah, 28 Feb. 1668. In Nov. 1660, as Felt, II. 583, tells, his w. was prosecut. as a Quaker, but the sentence in her case was not, we may hope, that she should be hang. or sold for a slave to the W. I. as in sev. other instances. Prob. both d. in their beds in advanced age. ROBERT, Salem, s. prob. of the preced. m. 27 Aug. 1685, Hannah Eager, had Elizabeth b. 16 Aug. foll. d. in few mos.; and Robert, 4 Mar. 1688; and d. 1688, and his w. d. 17 Apr. 1691, aged 29, as by the gr. stones we learn. SAMUEL, Hartford, was, it is said, b. at [[208]] Hertford in Co. Herts (a. 20 ms. from London), usually sound. Hartford, and tradit. tells that the city in Conn. out of regard to him was thus nam.; perhaps younger br. of Gregory, and of Simon, certain. bred at Emanuel, where he was matric. 1620, and took his degrees 1623 and 7, came in 1633, with Cotton, Hooker, and other men of note, passen. embark. at the Downs, in the Griffin, arr. 4 Sept. at Boston, went with Hooker to Cambridge, where 11 Oct. next he was made teacher and H. pastor of the ch. and adm. freem. 14 May foll. in 1636 rem. with Hooker, and they found. the ch. of H. there with univers. accept. they fulfill. the same duties as bef. at C. and in the Pequot war, 1637, he was chapl. to the troops under Capt. Mason. Aft. the d. of our judicious Hooker, he had a sad controversy with some of his people, equally bitter and unintelligib. of wh. Mather thot. the origin undiscov. But aft. many yrs. of fruitless attemps at reconcil. Gov. Webster and many frinds of influence rem. up the riv. beyond the rancor, and S. d. 20 July 1663. He had sec. w. m. 1641, Elizabeth Allen at Boston, by her had Samuel and Elizabeth and three ch. were of former one, Rebecca, Mary, and Sarah. The whole five are ment. in his will. More than one fifth of his inv. was in books. It ought to be told, that the town rec. has other ch. Joseph, bapt. 18 Oct. 1646; Lydia, 22 Jan. or Feb. 1648; a s. bapt. 29 Apr. 1649, w. may be the Samuel of the will; and Abigail, b. 9 Sept. 1650; but prob. all exc. Samuel, and Elizabeth wh. must be the same as Lydia, or Abigail of the town rec. d. early. His wid. m. Mr. George Gardner, of Salem, outliv. him, and d. late in 1681. Her will of 6 June pro. 4 Jan. foll. names her own two ch. Samuel, and Elizabeth wh. had been w. of William Sedgwick, was aft. many yrs. of neglect, divorc. from him, m. John Roberts, had s. John, wh. in this will was provid. for by his gr.mo. She names her ds.-in-law, the ch. of his first w. Rebecca, w. of Timothy Nash of Hadley; Mary, w. of Joseph Fitch of Windsor; and Sarah, w. of Thomas Butler of Hartford. SAMUEL, Hartford, only s. of the preced. was much respect. in Conn. and qualif. to assist Gershom Bulkley, in 1676, at Wethersfield, in his work of the ministry, while giv. his devot. to the other work of Surgeon to the forces in the Ind. war. He also preach. at Wethersfield, Middletown, and other places, was never m. nor sett. but he had liberal gr. of ld. by the legisl. of Conn. for his f.'s services, bec. very intemper. in 1678 and 80 was punish. by fines for drunk. "given over to the power" of that evil habit and d. 8 Oct. 1683, by falling down the bank of the riv. on the rocks. SAMUEL, Cambridge, fourth s. of Gregory, prob. b. in Eng. freem. 1657, was m. 7 June 1665 to Sarah, d. of the first Isaac Stearns, had Samuel, b. 1 Oct. 1656; Isaac; both bapt. says the Reg. of matchless Mitchell, tho. it gives not their dates; and Isaac prob. d. young; Sarah, 5 Feb. bapt.

SAMUEL, Concord, freem. 1682. SAMUEL, Beverly, perhaps s. of John of the same, m. Elizabeth d. of Zechariah Herrick, but the date of her b. is giv. by Barry, as that of m.; had Samuel, b. 15 Jan. 1685; Robert, 7 Jan. 1687; Elizabeth 1 Feb. 1689; Catharine, 15 Apr. 1691; Mary, 21 Feb. 1693, wh. d. in few ds. SIMON, Watertown, elder br. of Gregory, and perhaps of Rev. Samuel, came in the Increase, from London 1635, aged 50, call. husbandman, with w. Joan, or Jane, 38, d. of William Clark, and ch. Frances, 16; Ann, 11; Simon, 4; Mary, 3; and John, 5 wks.; bec. freem. 25 May 1636, deac. had b. here, Elizabeth 5 Apr. 1639; took sec. w. a. 1654, Sarah, wid. of Richard Lumpkin of Ipswich, from wh. it may be presum. that he had acquaintance with her bef. they came from Eng. and as her h. had come from Boxted in Essex, perhaps S. was of that Co. Ano. infer. may be, that his w. Jane had not long been d. This w. by her contract of m. was permit. to make a will to dispose of her prop. of wh. a full abstr. is in Geneal. Reg. VIII. She d. in 1663, and he d. 22 Sept. 1665, aged 80. Frances m. Rev. Henry Green; Ann, perhaps, m. Lewis Jones; and in his will of 7 Sept. preced. pro. next mo. only ch. nam. are Simon, John, Frances, and Mary. Abstr. is in Geneal. Reg. III. 182. SIMON, Watertown s. of the preced. b. in Eng. freem. 1653, m. says Barry, Mary Whipple, d. I find, of John of Ipswich, had John, b. 23 July 1658; Matthew, 6 Feb. 1660; Nathaniel, 22 Feb. 1662, d. in two days; Ebenezer, 27 Feb. 1663; Mary, 6 Jan. 1665; Nathaniel, again, a. 1667, H.

His sur name is misprint. in Geneal. Reg. XI. 76, as Stowe. He was town clk. selectman, and rep. 1679-86, and again, aft. the overthrow of Sir E. Andros, in 1689 and 90, and d. 27 Feb. 1708; and his wid. d. 2 June 1720, aged 86. Mary m. Comfort Starr of Dedham; Elizabeth m. deac. Isaac Stearns; and Susanna m. June 1697, Edward Goddard. SIMON, Groton, s. of thee preced. one of the orig. props. yet perhaps not actu. sett. bef. Philip's war, but in Mar. 1692 had long eno. been there to be assign. as also, John, wh. I judge to be his br. in the distrib. of garrisons [[210]] against Ind. hostil. by w. Sarah had, prob. Simon, not rec.; Susanna, b. 23 Oct. 1694; Isaac, 4 May 1697; and Benjamin, 12 Aug. 1706; beside Hannah, wh. d. 27 Sept. 1723; and Lydia, wh. d. three days aft. of wh. the b. of neither is found. by Butler.

WILLIAM, Guilford 1639, sign. the coven. of 1 June, perhaps br. of John of the same, by w. Hannah had William, b. a 1642; Hannah a. 1644; Benajah, a. 1647; beside Samuel, wh. d. 1675; but this may have been by his sec. w. m. 1659, Mary, w. of Richard Hughes of G. He d. Nov. 1683. Hannah m. bef. 1666, John Norton, and perhaps d. bef. her f. WILLIAM, Guilford, s. of the preced. m. 20 Feb. 1673, Hannah Wolfe, tho. the surname is uncert. had Samuel, b. 16 Mar. 1675, d. soon; William, 22 Mar. 1676; Hannah, 27 July 1678; Daniel, 27 July 1680; Elizabeth 28 Nov. 1682; Josiah, 22 May 1685; Stephen, 1 Mar. 1689; Joshua, 3 May 1692; and Abigail, 1 Dec. 1697. He was propound. 1669, for freem. and d. 28 Sept. 1730. Of a sec. w. Mary we kn. not the date. Of this name, in 1834, Farmer marks thirteen had been gr. at Harv. six at Yale, and seventeen at the rest of the N. E. coll. STONHILL, HENRY, Milford 1639-46, soon aft. went home, tak. dism. from the ch. of M. which he had join. with, 1641, to Thomas Goodwin's ch. in London. STORER, BENJAMIN, Wells, perhaps s. of William, was k. by the Ind. Apr. 1677. JOSEPH, Wells, br. of the preced. sw. alleg. and was ensign 1680, rep. 1681, and 5, a man of distinct. and energy in the Ind. wars; by w. Hannah, d. prob. of Roger Hill, had Hannah, b. 6 May 1680; Sarah, 9 Dec. 1682; Mary, 12 May 1685; Abigail, 29 Oct. 1687; Joseph, 29 Aug. 1690; John, 5 Sept. 1694; Joseph, prob. at Charlestown, whither the Ind. wars may have compel. the mo. to flee, and certain. bapt. there 8 Nov. 1696; Keziah, 2 May 1697; Ebenezer, in Saco fort, 4 June 1669; and Seth, 26 May 1702, H. C. 1720, min. of Watertown. RICHARD, Boston, came in the George from Bristol, prob. 1635, with his mo. Elizabeth w. of Robert Hull, f. of Capt. John, but no more is told of him. SAMUEL, Wells, br. of Joseph, was disting. in the defence against French and Ind. of their position, common. call. Storer's garrison, 1692; but his resid. for sev. yrs. was Charlestown, were he had William, bapt. 28 June 1691; the f. call. of the ch. of York; Lydia, 4 Mar. 1694; Mehitable, 10 May 1696; Jemima, 30 Oct. 1698; and David, 27 Oct. 1700. But prob. aft. peace he went again to Maine. WILLIAM, an early sett. in Maine, had Joseph, Jeremia, Samuel, and [[211]] Benjamin. Farmer in his MS. had mark. that six of this name had been gr. at Harv. and five at Bowd. in 1834. STORES, in mod. times STORRS, CORDIAL, Mansfield, youngest ch. of the first Samuel, m. 15 Dec. 1724, Hannah, d. of Thomas Wood of Rowley, had Jabez, b. 26 July 1725, d. next yr.; Cordial, 3 Jan. 1728; Hannah, 15 Apr. 1732; and Mehitable, 15 Apr. 1737; and he had sec. w. m. 10 Oct. 1765 Catharine, wid. of Zecariah Bicknell of Ashford. SAMUEL, Barnstable, is said to have come from Sutton in Nottinghamsh. but as there are four parishes of that name in the Co. we may be uncert. wh. is meant. He m. 6 Dec. 1666, Mary, d. of Thomas Huckins, had Mary, b. 31 Dec. 1667; Sarah, 26 June 1670; Hannah, 28 Mar. 1672 Elizabeth 31 May 1675; Samuel, 17 May 1677; and Lydia, June 1679; beside.

Lemuel, 13 Mar. 1726; Amariah, 11 June 1728; and Ann, 18 Jan. 1732; and d. Apr. 1775; and his wid. liv. to 10 Mar. 1776. Farmer's MS. show that, in 1834 there had, of this name been gr. nine at Yale, eight at Dart. and six at other N. E. coll. of wh. one at Harv. STORKE, JOHN, Rowley, m. prob. betw. 1660 and 70 Mercy, d. of the first Thomas Nelson of the same. SAMUEL, Lynn 1677. STORY, ANDREW, Ipswich 1639 may be the youth sentenc. to be whip. Sept. Court, 1635, for run. from his master, and aft. had serv. in the expedit. against the Pequots two yrs. later. AUGUSTUS, or AUGUSTINE Exeter 1639, had the yr. bef. been of Boston, and join. with John Wheelwright of Exeter (wh. was banish. 1637, from Mass.), in purchase, 3 Apr. 1638, from the sagamore Piscataqua, of a large tract, thirty miles square, of wh. authentic copy may be seen in N. H. Hist. Coll. I. He is call. of Boston, as well as Samuel Hutchinson, ano. grantee, br.-in-law of Wheelwright, therein nam. of Piscataqua. But how this person spell. his name is very uncert. varying from Star, thro. Storr, to Storre and Story; yet with no fortuitous combina. of letters can I found prob. ground for placing him at Boston for any long. resid. He was not a [[212]] mem. of the ch. he was not a landholder, nor indeed is anything more certain. kn. of him aft. the gr. authentic purchase. If he were m. and cont. in our country, he may have been ancest. of that Charles, wh. bec. Secr. of the Prov. of N. H. 1696 and was acting in the same place 1714, beside being judge of the admiralty, and indeed may have been counsel in the gr. cause, 1707, to support the forged deed of the whole province of N. H. to Wheelwright, Story, and others, print. as Appendix in the first vol. of Belkn. orig. Ed. with date of 17 May 1629, seven yrs. bef. Wheelwright was on this side of the ocean.

GEORGE, Boston 1642, a young merch. wh. by tak. up the cause (trover for a pig) brot. against Capt. Keayne by the w. of one Richard Sherman, with wh. he liv. perhaps in a suspicious way, during the abs. of her h. brot. on the gr. quarrel betw. rep. and Assit. that shook the colony that yr. and the next to its founda. but no more is kn. of him, unless he were, in 1643, of Maine. ISAAC, Watertown 1635, only come in by mistake of surname for Stearns in Geneal. Reg. VII. 159. ROWLAND, Boston shipwright, bot. est. 1673, by w.

WILLIAM, Ipswich, s. prob. of first William, freem. 1671, m. 25 Oct. of that yr. Susanna Fuller, had Elizabeth b. 14 Oct. 1672. Six of this name had in 1845 been gr. at Harv. But the disting. jurisconsult, late of the Supreme Ct. of the U. S.

STOTT, EDWARD, Wethersfield, by Hinman, 165, rank. among early sett. aft. 1640; tho. in my opin. the name as mistak. by him for Scott, as c and t are in old handwriting frequently read for ea. other. STOUGHTON, ISREAL, Dorchester, a man of prop. and distinct. came, I presume, in 1632, when is found the earliest ment. of him, was adm. freem. 5 Nov. of the yr. foll. rep. at the first and sec. Gen.

Elizabeth Eliot, gave him £200. Stiles, 807, gives him many ch. bef. 1732, but aft. 1713 I see reason to fear, from comparison with his p. 539, that he was 21 yrs. older than his w.

Yet a Nicholas of later date there certain. was, wh. liv. at Taunton, at least there m. 17 Feb. 1674, Elizabeth Knapp, wh. may have been d. of Aaron, and there had Hannah, b. 4 July 1679. He took sec. w. 25 Feb. 1692, Sarah, d. of Hezekiah Hoar. SAMUEL, Windsor, s. of the sec. Thomas, tax. in 1691, had Samuel, b. 1702, perhaps others. THOMAS, Dorchester, 1630 br. of Israel, the first, came no doubt, in the Mary and John, next mo. in the fleet with Winthrop desir. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was sw. 18 May foll. constable by appointm. of Court, Sept. 1630, in the exercise of wh. office, Mar. foll. he commit. the indiscret. of solemnis. a mar. betw. Clement Briggs and Joan Allen, for wh. he was fin. L5, tho. some yrs. after it was remit. I hope the contr. of m. held good. Early in 1635 (after he had tak. for sec. w. Margaret, wid. of Simon Huntington, wh. says the Roxbury ch. rec. had d. on the voyage, of smallpox, bef. reach. Boston in 1633), the planta. of Conn. was project. by many people of Watertown, Newton (since nam. Cambridge), and Dorchester, and from the two latter the majority of ch. mem. rem. to found new sett. on the gr. river, as it wa call. but they were requir. to contin. undeer the jurisdict. of Mass. He was one of those, oft. rep. betw. 1639 and 48, not ment. later in my opin. (exc. that Windsor town, and ch. rec. mark his d. mean. some other person, 25 Mar. 1661) and liv. the resid. of his days at Windsor, wh. was the nam. giv. to the to Dorchester planta. How long this time was, is unkn. or what ch. he had, but as he was ens. 1636, and in 1640 made lieut. the freem. on the list of 1669, may seem to be a s. Hinman, 243, says he d. Sept. 1684, leav. good est. to ch. six by name; but as the names all agree with those of the ch. of sec. Thomas, I doubt not the other circumstances belong to him. The same conclusion is drawn as to John, wh. follows on the same page. For this first Thomas, from the Conn. rec. Trumbull, I. 83, as to distrib. of the sev. portions of Mr. Stoughton's childr. and his w.'s 27 Mar. 1643, I infer, that he d. late in 1642, and 42 yrs. earlier than Hinman's date. Yet it is remarka. that Stiles in Hist. of W. has utterly sunkt this first Thomas, one of the founders of his town, follow. Hinman inst. of the careful Hist. of Dorchester, wh. however he innocent. refers to. THOMAS, Windsor, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. an orig. propr. of Hartford, m. Mary, d. of William Wadsworth, had John, b. 20 June 1657; Mary, 1 Jan. 1659; Elizabeth 18 Nov. 1660; Thomas, 21 Nov. 1663; Samuel, 8 [[215]] Sept. 1665; Israel, 21 Aug. 1667; and Rebecca, 19 June 1673. He was, prob. that freem. on the list of. 1669, and had been many yrs. d. Sept. 1684, leav. fair est. we may believe, as also that his line was prolong. for in 1755, John S. was gr. at Yale. Mary m. 3 June 1677, Samuel Farnsworth; Elizabeth m. first, 1680, James Mackman, a rich merch. and sec. in 1699, John Eliot, Esquire; and Rebecca m. 1694, Atherton Mather. THOMAS, Windsor, s. of the preced. m. 31 Dec. 1691, Dorothy, d. of the sec. John Talcott, had Mary, b. 4 Jan. 1693, and his w. d. 28 May 1696. He m. 1697, Abigail Lothrop, perhaps wid. of Samuel the sec. of New London, certain. not, as Stiles, in Hist. 807, calls her, d. of Rev. Timothy Edwards, for she was his sis. had Thomas, 9 Apr. 1698; Daniel, 13 Aug. 1669; Benjamin, 28 Apr. 1701; Timothy, 27 June 1703; Abigail, 21 Dec. 1704; David, 9 Sept. 1706; Mabel, 19 Aug. 1708; Jonathan, 7 Oct. 1710; Elizabeth 20 Dec. 1712; Isaac, 2 Nov. 1714; and John, 11 Dec. 1719; was a capt. and d. 14 Jan. 1749. His wid. d. 23 Jan. 1754. WILLIAM, Dorchester, s. of the first Isreal, perhaps b. in Eng. where, aft. gr. at Harv. he resort. and stud. at Oxford Univ. being by order of Parliam. creat. a fellow of New Coll. and. preach at a parish in Co. Sussex, says Farmer, but with unkn. authority, and by Calamy is put with min. eject. for losing his fellowship soon aft. the restor. Aft. coming back, he was disting. for preach. the Election serm. 1668, but would not confine his powers to the pulpit; and was one of the selectmen 1671-4, an Assist. 1671-86, some yrs. commissnr. for the Unit. Col. and in the end of Oct. 1667 went with Bulkley, as agent to defend our cause at London. In the gr. contest with the crown he lost support of many friends, and stood the very lowest in the nominat. of the eighteen Assist. in 1686, being justly suspect. as guilty of moderat. He was appoint. by k. James one of the Counc. to Sir E. Andros, but partook of the N. E. spirit, when the Gov. was depos. and so gain the favor of Mather, that he nominat. him for lieut. gov. in the new charter, in wh. office, as also ch. just in 1695, he contin. till his d. 7 July 1701. Unhap. for his reputa. he was made cheif in 1692 of the unlawful special courte of oyer and terminer for trials of witches with the more amiable Sewall and Saltonstall, of wh. the one left the bench in disgust at the outrages on justice, and the other most bitterly repent. in public sackcloth; but Stoughton, a bach. was made of sterner stuff. From the unerring tribunal in the gr. day of retrib. justice, he may receive the mercy that he knew not how to show; and some tenderness mighht be felt even by fellow mortals for his murderous proceeding in the case of Rebecca Nurse, did not such conduct in a judge, aft. verdict of acquittal, necessarily stimulate execration. In the dark rec. of criminal adjundicat. no [[216]] instance can be found to parallel his blindness; yet if, pity for delus. in the man must be express. what excuse may be fram. for ignorance in a magistrate presid. in such unlawful. tribunal. See Quincy in Hist. of the Univ. I. 178-9. He join. in most unseemly union the various functions of legislat., Judicial, and executive authority; and in execut. of his sad duty he was so virulent. possessed against the accused, when he heard of reprieve of some under sentence of d. at a former term, as to complain of obstruction of justice, and withdrew from the Court. The recall of Sir William Phips left him in chief command in the prov. until arr. of Lord Bellomont in 1669, and he had the gratifica. of laying the corner stone of a coll. at Cambridge, built at his cost, and honor. with his name. Again he bec. ch. magistr. on d. of his superior. His monum. in the grave-yard at D. bears a long inscript. very closely imitat. from that of the learned Pascal, and has no reference to the judicial murders at Salem. See scrupul. Eliot's Biog. Dict. and Quincy's Hist. Harv. In his will, execut. one day bef. his d. pro. 23 of same mo. many good gifts out of his large est. are made, as beside others, L50 to the ch. beside two pieces of plate, L50 to the poor of the town, and L150 to the sch. to the wid. and childr. of Rev. John Collins L100, to Rev. John Danforth, wh. m. his niece, L50, beside a negro slave, and and orchard to his w. and L300 to Theophilus Minot, besides less sums to other relat. and made William Tailer, his neph. afterwards lieut. Gov. and nieces Elizabeth Danforth, Elizabeth Nelson, and Mehitable Cooper Excors. Of Theophilus Minot I find no other ment. and am led to cont. that he was a gr.ch. of the testator's elder sis. Hannah, wh. had m. James Minot. STOVER, or STOVARD, JOHN, Pemaquid, perhaps s. of Silvester, sw. fidel. to Mass. 1674. He liv. in later yrs. at York or Wells, and his was the fam. that suffer. from the Ind. in Oct. 1705, as Niles tells, when two of the ch. were k. and two more carr. away. SILVESTER, York, submit. to Mass. 1652, and sw. alleg. to Charles II. Mar. 1681. STOW, EDWARD, Watertown 1643, may have been only trans. visitor, for his name is not found in Bond; nor have I seen it in any other pt. of N. E. ICHABOD, Middletown, s. of the Rev. Samuel, m. 22 Oct. 1688, Mary, d. of the first David Atwater, of New Haven, had Abigail, b. 25 Jan. 1693, d. at 7 yrs; and Hope, 31 Oct. 1694. He d. 25 Jan. 1695. JOHN, Roxbury, came 1634, arr. says the ch. rec. 17 May, in one of those six sh. that came in, as Winthrop tells, in the wk. of the Gen. Ct.'s meeting, brot. w. Elizabeth and six ch. Thomas, Elizabeth, John, Nathaniel, Samuel, H. C. 1645, and Thankful; was freem. 3 Sept. foll. and his w. d. or was bur. 21 Aug. 1638; was rep. at two Courts in [[217]] 1639, and d. 26 Oct. 1643, by Eliot's rec. descr. as "an old Kentish man." His d. Elizabeth m. 4 Dec. 1639, Henry. Archer, on the same day her br. Thomas m. and Thankful m. John Pierpont. I suppose, aft. the d. of f. the residue of the fam. rem. to sev. towns, but princip. to Concord and Middletown. JOHN, Concord, Farmer says had s. Nathaniel, wh. I think a mistake. He was, prob. s. of the preced. and may have not rem. to Middletown, yet perhaps serv. in Philip's war, when one John S. of Capt. Newberry's comp. was wound. near the end of May, and cured last of Jan. foll. tho. this soldier may have been a younger man, and I have some ground for presum. that John, s. of Roxbury John, was d. bef. Sept. 1653, and perhaps never m. bec. his brs. Thomas, Nathaniel, and Samuel then unit. with Hopestill Foster, all legatees under the will of Rachael Bigg, of Dorchester, in a composition as to their respect. shares in est. of Smallhope Bigg, and John Bigg, their uncles in Co. Kent, old Eng. and it is almost certain, that the other brs. of those three must have had equal int. beside that John had m. a d. of Rachell Bigg, and was made excor. of her will. JOHN, Middletown, s. of Thomas, of the same, m. 13 Nov. 1668, Mary Wetmore, had John, b. 10 Oct. 1669, drown. at 2 yrs.; John, again, 3 Mar. 1672; Thomas, 10 Apr. 1674; Nathaniel, 22 Feb. 1676; Mary, June 1678; Hannah, 25 Aug. 1680; Sarah, 25 Mar. 1683; Samuel, 30 Apr. 1684; Thankful, 15 July 1686; and Experience, 30 Sept. 1688; of wh. Samuel, Sarah, and Thankful d. young; and the f. d. 18 Oct. 1688. JOHN, Middletown, s. of the Rev. Samuel, m. a. 1678, Esther, wid. of John Wilcox, d. of William Cornwell, had Hope, b. 10 Sept. 1679; Samuel 1684, d. at 22 yrs. and Thankful, wh. d. young in 1700; and he d. 30 June 1732; and his wid. d. 2 May foll. ea. 82 yrs. old. He was, perhaps, that John, of Capt. Newberry's comp. wound. in Philip's war. NATHANIEL, Concord, s. of John the first, b. in Eng. by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 29 or 30 June 17, both dates being in the rec. d. in few mos. Hannah, wh. d. 14 May, perhaps few hours old; and Thankful, 4 Jan. 1660; beside Samuel, nam. in the will of his uncle the Rev. Samuel. His w. d. 8 June 1661, he was freem. 1690. NATHANIEL, Middletown, s. of Thomas of the same, m. 4 Apr. 1677, Hannah Wet more, had no ch. His w. d. 0ct. 1704, and he d. 16 Feb. foll. His est. went in six equal pts. to brs. Thomas, Samuel, and the rep. of John, sis. Mary, Thankful, and the heirs of Elizabeth RICHARD, call. by Farmer of Mass. as early as 1630, I fear to count any thing but a misnomer. SAMUEL, Middletown, s. of John the first, b. in Eng. tho. Dr. Field in his valua. acco. of Middlesex Co. Conn. makes him native of Concord, wh. error he was led into by Shattuck, but it wd. have been impossib. had he recollect. the yr. of his gr. at Harv. 1645; and in his invalua. [[218]] Memor. of Grad. Farmer, misled by the same high vouchers, erron. calls him s. of Thomas, instead of his br. He was freem. 1645, while undergr. but had his degr. few wks. aft.; went to preach at Middletown a. 1653, where no ch. was gather. for many yrs. and seems never to have been ord. but was the first and only min. there bef. 1668, by the gen. assem. as early as 1660, the town had been liberat. from contrib. to his support, on condit. of giv. him a recommend. to others. He, however, was well content with civil duties, tho. during Philip's war, as sev. yrs. bef. he preach. in various near towns, instead of more popular persons, wh. were sometimes invalid, or call. from their pulpits to accomp. the soldiers. By w. Hope, d. of William Fletcher he had John, b. at Charlestown, 16 June 1650; Ichabod, at M. 20 Feb. 1653; Hope, 4 Feb. 1657; Dorothy, 1 Aug. 1659, wh. m. Jonathan Gilbert sec. and d. 14 July 1698; Elizabeth 1 Aug. 1662; Thankful, 5 May 1664; Rachel, 13 Mar. 1667; and Margaret (nam. in the will of her f.) whose date of b. is not kn.; and he d. 8 May 1704, aged 82, says Judge Sewall. His will, of 13 Aug. 1702 is very minute, and enlarges our geneal. details by ment. of his br. Nathaniel's s. Samuel of his dec. br. Thomas's. Nathaniel, Thomas, and John, of wh. the latter being d. his heirs are ment. as also Samuel, s. of that neph. Thomas; beside his cous. Rev. James Pierpont, whose mo. was sis. of the testat. His w. was d. as was the younger of his two s. leav. only ch. Hope, and his olest d. Hope, wh. m. 13 Feb. 1678, Abraham Smith, and d. 17 Nov. foll. only 5 days aft. the d. of her newborn inf. Aft. s. John, and the only ch. of Ichabod, therefore, of his own ch. only the five surv. ds. are to be looked for; Dorothy, wid. of Jonathan Gilbert; Elizabeth wh. had m. 1691, Maybee Barnes; Thankful, w. of William Trowbridge; Rachel, w. of Israhiah Wetmore, m. 13 May 1692; and Margaret, w. of Beriah Wetmore. SAMUEL, Marlborugh 1676, yet as he was taken station. at the garris. ho. of Joseph Rice, as a soldier; he may have liv. at Concord, or other neighb. town. I guess he was s. of Nathaniel of Concord. THOMAS, Braintree, eldest s. of the first John, b. in Eng. ar. co. 1638, m. 4 Dec. 1639, at Roxbury, Mary Gragg, or Griggs, had John, b. 3 Feb. 1641; and Mary, 6 Feb. 1643; by 1648, or earlier, rem. to Concord, there freem. 1653, thence a. 1654, to Middletown, had, also, Thankful, Elizabeth Nathaniel, Samuel, and Thomas. His w. d. 21 Aug. 1680, and he d. prob. early in 1684, as inv. is of 23 Feb. in his will names only John, Nathaniel, and Thomas as his s. and Samuel Bidwell, h. of his dec. d. Elizabeth Perhaps his est. was too small to give any pt. to two otber m. ds. or they may have had full shares on m. A d. says Hinman, 243, m. Samuel Bidwell; Mary m. Spaulding; and Thankful m. a Hill, perhaps John, the sec. of Guilford. THOMAS, Middletown, s. of the [[219]] preced. m. 16 Oct. 1675, Bethia, d. of Samuel Stocking of the same, had Bethia, b. 6 or 16 Apr. 1678, d. soon; Samuel, Oct, 1681 or 2; Bethia, again, 22 Feb. 1658; Mary, Aug. 1688, Thomas, 7 May 1691; Hannah, 11 Feb. 1696; and Joseph, 5 Aug. 1703. He d. 19 Mar. 1730, and his wid. d. 6 Nov. 1732. STOWELL, JOHN, Hingham, was not s. prob. of Samuel, m. Sept. 1683, Mary Beal, to wh. admin. on his est. was giv. 28 Apr. 1691. SAMUEL, Hingham, m. 25 Oct. 1649, Mary , d. of John Farrow of the same, had Samuel, b. 18 July, 1655, and prob. others bef. or aft. or both as David, Mary, 15 Oct. 1653, wh. m. 25 Feb. 1681, John Gardner the sec. of the name; and Remember, wh. m. Mar. 1688, Thomas Remington. His will of 27 Oct. 1683, pro. 30 Jan. foll. provides for w. Mary to bring the childr. aft. giv. to eldest s. Samuel, and makes her and two s. Samuel and David excors. SAMUEL, Hingham, s. prob. of the preced. m. Jan. 1685, Rachel, youngest ch. of the first Thomas Gill. STOWERS, or STOWER, JOHN, Watertown 1634, came from Parham in Co. Suffk. says Bond, as highly prob. for John sen. and jr. liv. there, was freem. 25 May 1636, by w. Jane had Elizabeth b. 10 Apr. 1635, bur. in Dec. foll.; Elizabeth again, 14 Apr. 1637; and Sarah, 8 Mar. 1642; had sec. w. Phebe; rem. in latter days to Newport, and in Dec. 1685, being aged, and a town charge, sold his est. JOSEPH, Charlestown, s. of Nicholas, a householder 1658, had Mary, bapt. 1 July 1677; but no other, bef. or aft. is found in the ch. rec. and we learn, that she on same day renew the covenant, bec. her f. d. in her infancy, perhaps she was the only ch. He d. 29 Dec. 1672. Perhaps Mary m. 4 Aug. 1687, Matthew Castle. JOSEPH, Salisbury 1667, m. Mary, d. of Ralph Blaisdell, unless it were John S. for both are nam. in Gen. Reg. VIII. 53-4 as the h. I think the fam. spread to N. Hampsh. NICHOLAS, Charlestown 1629, one of the eleven earliest sett. in that penins. came prob. in the fleet with Higginson to Salem, and went with the Spragues, as the compilat. of the rec. of C. made in 1664 calls the date 1628, but clearly meaning 1629; in 1630 he was on the inq. 28 Sept. on the body of Austen Bratcher, that charg. Walter Palmer with the manslaught. of wh. he was acquit. by the jury; freem. 18 May next, stands NO. 70 on the list of Boston ch. and with w. was among found. of that in C. 35 in all, 2 Nov. 1632, and had, by w. Amy, Joseph, b. 21, bapt. 23 Feb. 1633; Abigail, 27, bapt. 28 June 1636; and John, wh. d. 15 Aug. 1638, perhaps few hours old. But he had other ch. Richard, Jane, and a d. m. Starr, as Frothingham reads the will, but Farr, acc. Geneal. Reg. III. 180, perhaps all three, certain. the first and last b. in Eng. Unless the orig. will can be seen, that is not likely, we must decide by our [[220]] contemp. rec. in wh. Farr is plain; but I have gr. delight in find. that George F. of Lynn was a passeng. from Eng. at the same time with S. and it is quite prob. they were in the same ship, and their ch wd. thus bec. acquaint. besides that the fathers, six yrs. aft. arr. were made freem. on the same day; was appoint. constable 1639, and d. 17 May 1646. His will was made the day bef. His wid. d. soon, at least her inv. was of 1 July aft. Yet in the list of inhabs. wh. drew sh. in wood and commons on Mystick side, 1658, her name is ent. but prob. this was only as the mo. of heirs entitled. RICHARD, Charlestown, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. join. the ch. 12 Apr. 1650, and was made freem. next mo. and Mar. foll. Joanna, perhaps his w. join. had Samuel, b. 12 July 1647; Mary, 9 Feb. 1654; and Sarah, 21 Mar. 1656, and perhaps others b. bef. or aft. or both, certain. Hannah, wh. m. Oct. 1666, Abraham Hills. He d. 8 July 1693, says Frothingham; and his w. Hannah d. 3 Feb. 1698-9 aged 81, says the gr. stone. His d. Mary, unless it was the d. of Joseph, bef. ment. m. 4 Aug. 1687, Matthew Castle. SAMUEL, Malden, s. of the preced. d. 26 Dec. 1721. STRAIGHT, or STRAITE, THOMAS, Watertown 1644, took o. of alleg. 1652, m. Elizabeth d. of Henry Kimball of the same, wh. was b. in Eng. says Bond, had Susanna, b. 1657; Thomas, 19 Feb. 1660; and Elizabeth was a capt. and d. 22 Nov. 1681, in his nuncup. will, 4 Oct. preced. gave portions to the ds. and good provis. for life to his w. wh. d. 1 Jan. 1719, aged 89.

STRATTON, CALEB, Boston 1661, a mariner. ELEAZER, Andover, d. at the E. on milit. serv. 15 Mar. 1689. JOHN, Scarborough 1633, or earlier, aft. rem. to Salem, Felt says, had gr. of ld. 1637, but prob. rem. soon aft. 1643 perhaps join. with the Lynn people to Easthampton, L. I. where was a John early. JOHN, Watertown, s. of Samuel the first [[221]] of the same, prob. b. in Eng. m. 10 Mar. 1659, Elizabeth d. of John Train of the same, had Elizabeth b. 23 Feb. 1600, d. soon; John, 24 Aug. 1661; Elizabeth again, 2 July 1664; Joseph, 13 Jan. 1667; Samuel, 18 Sept. 1669; Rebecca, 16 May 1672; Ebenezer, 2 Nov. 1677, d. soon; Ebenezer, again, 2 Oct. 1678; and Jonathan, 6 Mar. 1680, was freem. 1663, and d. 7 Apr. 1691. His wid. d. 7 May 1708. JOHN, Watertown, not s. of the preced. and Bond thinks he may have been s. of Salem John, m. 26 Nov. 1667, Mary, d. of Thomas Smith of the same, had John, b. 3 Mar. 1669; Thomas, 26 Oct. 1670; James, 18 Jan. 1673; Mary; Judy, 13 Aug. 1680; Jonathan, 22 Aug. 1684, d. young; Mercy, bapt. 3 July 1687; John, 28 July 1689, unless Bond gives wrong name; and Samuel, 10 May 1691, posthum.

RICHARD, Watertown, s. of Samuuel the first, b. in Eng. may be he wh. hav. been left at home by his f. perhaps at sch. came in the Speedwell, 1656, from London to Boston, by w. Susanna had Samuel, b. 8 Apr. 1658; and d. 25 July foll. aged a. 30 yrs. SAMUEL, Watertown, came bef. 1648, with s.

His w. d. perhaps, 27 Nov. 1719; and he d. 28 Sept. 1723. STREAME, STREME, or STERTE, JOHN Milford 1646, is perhaps he wh. came in the Truelove, with his uncle Zechariah Witman; from London, to Boston 1635, aged 14, with Thomas, prob. his br. aged 15; m. 20 Dec. 1649, Martha Beard of the same, had Abigail; Mary, b. 12 Oct. 1653; John, Dec. 1657; Thomas, 1 Apr. 1661, d. young; Martha, 1664; and Sarah, 1667, and he was freem. of Conn. 1665, ens. 1669, and d. 1685.

I had tak. the spell. of this surname in June or July 1842, as here it stands first, but 17 yrs. later, Mr. Drake's copy of the same gives it STERTE, and his eyesight may have been better than mine, or that of the keeper of her majesty's public office, wh. confirm. mine. Diversity in reading old MS. must be expected. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 272 and Geneal. Reg. XIV. 323.

He left no ch. but Mary. NICHOLAS, Taunton, ord. teacher, on the same day that Hooke was made pastor, but what day that was, is ask. in vain, and only prob. conject. fixes the yr. 1637. He had, no doubt, adequate educ. but none of the inquisit. scholars of New Haven have. ascert. in what place he was b. or taught. Emery says, his first w. was a sis. of the maiden found. of the town, and his sec. was the wid. of Gov. Newman, but of neither do we hear the name. All his ch. Samuel, H. C. 1664; Susanna; Sarah; Abiah; and Hannah; were, I [[223]] doubt not, by the first. Hooke being drawn to Eng. from New Haven, where he had been teacher conjunct. with famous Davenport, our Taunton min. was call. 1659 to take his place and was induct. 26 Nov. there d. 22 Apr. 1674. Dodd, in East Haven reg. tells, that Susanna m. a Mason, whose name is not found; Sarah m. 1662, James Heaton; Abiah m. 28 Sept. 1663, Daniel Sherman; and Hannah m. an Andrews. SAMUEL, Wallingford, only s. of the preced m. 3 Nov. of the same yr. in wh. he had his A. B. Ann, d. of Richard Miles, had Ann, b.

I. prob. s. of John, was there in 1656-86. See Riker, Ann of Newtown. JOHN, Mass. 1630, came, prob. in the fleet with Winthrop but no rec. shows of what town he was inhab. and neither Bond, exc. as Stickland, p. 950, Felt, Frothingham, Ellis, Holmes, Lewis, nor Snow claim him for their towns, as citizen, yet he desir. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. and was sw. on 18 May foll. then call. serj. Perhaps he was not a mem. of either of the chs. but a man of good consider. evidently, as he serv. on that sp. jury at the Ct. of Assist. May 1631, wh. gave the exempl. damages in the action of battery by Dexter against Capt. Endicott. At the Ct. in Sept. 1632 he was fin. L3 for refus. to watch, but at the Gen. Ct. Sept. 1638, it was remit. to him, as were those of Sir Richard Saltonstall, Gov. Dudley, Edward Gibbons, and so many others, that it perhaps gave more satisfact. than any session has ever done since, and may be call. the gr. remission term. With certainty no more is kn. of him, but, I suppose, he was one of the patentees of Hempstead, L. I. 1644, and one of the first sett. at Huntington 1650. He had, we can hardly doubt, a fam.

May 1651, unless this were his s. wh. seems very improb. and soon aft. 1661 was inhab. of Northampton. With very gr. doubts as to most of the items, and utter reject. of part most import. in tradit. report. of his com. in the Mary and John to Dorchester with Warham in May 1630, and of the d. of his first w. on the pass. and tak. a sec. w. in 1630, I think it prob. that he brot. John in 1635, and at [[226]] Hingham had Thomas, possib. also ano. ch. wh. d. inf. and that his w. d. there, and that he m. perhaps in 1638, Abigail, d. of Thomas Ford of Dorchester, for in that single yr. is the only ment. of his name as resid. at D. had prob. at Taunton Jedediah, bapt. 14 Apr. 1639, at D. tho. the ch. rec. implies, that the parents liv. at H. Return; Ebenezer; and Abigail; at Windsor, certain. had Elizabeth b. 24 Aug. 1647, or 24 Feb. 1648; Experience, 4 Aug. 1650; Samuel, and Joseph, perhaps sometimes call. Josiah, tw. 5 Aug. 1652; Mary, 26 Oct. 1654. At W. he m. 26 Nov. 1656, Mary, only d. of Joseph Clark; had Sarah not on rec. perhaps 1657; Hannah, 30 May 1659; and Esther, 7 June 1661; at Northampton had Thankful, 25 July 1663; and Jerijah, 12 Dec. 1665. Cothren favors him with three more ch. one wh. d. inf. two mos. aft. arr. of f. in 1630; Josiah, wh. d. young, unm. but I distrust the exist. of both; and Sarah, wh. m. 19 Dec. 1675, or 13 Jan. foll. (either of wh. may be thot. more prob. date, than that of fam. tradit. 13 July 1675) Joseph Barnard of Hadley, and next, 1698, Capt. Jonathan Wells of Deerfield. She may have come betw. Mary and Hannah. On the high authority of Dr. Allen I can find but sixteen ch. beside the inf. wh. d. He was, very likely, b. at Taunton in Co. Somerset, and his f. may have been Richard, and his sis. Elinor may have been w. of Walter Dean; but that he ever liv. at Dorchester is highly improb. for Harris, or any more search. inquirer has not found his name there, bef. or aft. 1638, exc. once was witness to a deed, wh. may have been writ. at Hingham; and it is hardly to be believ. that the same w. wh. bore the two ch. at N. had been taken at D. in 1630. That he was indeed ever resid. at D. aft. 1638, can be surmis. from the trifling incident only, that John Hill was m. at Boston 16 Jan. 1657 to Elizabeth Strong by Humphrey Atherton, the Assist. wh. was a Dorchester man. Nor is it more prob. as the tradit. ornaments the story, that he came from Eng. with Warham or accomp. him in 1636 to W. Hitchcock, Parsons, Cothren, Geneal. Reg. VIII. 180, and Emery too easily adm. such relat. in my opin. that relies on the powerful contempo. silence of his br.-in-law, Roger Clap, wh. did come in that sh. and m. a d. of his fellow passeng. Thomas Ford. For the modern origin of these improb. tradit. I presume that, as the ancest. was at Windsor, within twelve yrs. of its settlem. and a s. of this m. a Warham, and as Ford rem. with W. to Windsor the story spread grad. that he had come from Eng. to Dorchester, with W. and accomp. him to his next home in Conn. but the reporters did not consider two points, that many people were of Dorchester, wh. did not come with Warham, and many of Windsor, wh. did not come from Dorchester. In McClure's acco. of sett. of Windsor, writ. in 1797, pr. 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. V. 167, is seen the list of the sixteen male mem. of the ch. of Dorchester that [[227]] went with Warham thither, among wh. is No Strong. As Roger Clap had m. a d. of Ford two or three yrs. bef. the exodus, the d. wh. bec. the sec. w. of Strong, as it seems to me after it, may have contin. at D. to comfort her sis. and avoid the perils of ano. first planting. He was a tanner, one of the pillars at foundat. of ch. Elder 1663, and his w. d. 6 July 1688, and he d. 14 Apr. 1699, aged 91, says his s. Jerijah, wh. in mod. tradit. is easily corrupt to 94. Beside Sarah, above ment. Abigail m. 12 Nov. 1673, Rev. Nathaniel Chauncy, and 8 Sept. 1686, deac. Medad Pomeroy; Elizabeth m. 17 Mar. or 11 May 1669, Joseph Parsons; Experience m. 27 May 1669, Zerobabel Filer; Mary m. 20 Mar. 1679, John Clark; Hannah m. 15 July 1680, William Clark jr.; Esther m. 15 Oct. 1678, Thomas Bissel, the younger, of Windsor; and Thankful m. a Baldwin of the countless tribes of Milford, as Cothren reports, no doubt from the fam. acco. So there were eight ds. and seven s. of the prosperous tanner, wh. liv. to m. and thirteen of this number were b. to him by the sec. w. Abigail Ford. JOHN, Windsor, eldest s. of the preced. b. perhaps, in Eng. m. 26 Nov. 1656, Mary Clark, d. of that wid. Frances C. wh. had m.

He m. 23 May 1689, Margaret Newbury, d. of Maj. Benjamin, had Joseph, b. 1694, d. young; Hannah; Margaret, 1700; and Benjamin, 1703. He had large est. and d. 9 Apr. 1726; in his will, of 1719, he names the liv. s. Samuel and Benjamin, six ds. and also the childr. of s. Return wh. had dec. 1708. Both John and Return are in the list of freem. 1669, and the latter was one of the returning officers.

By his will he div. est. equal. betw. his only ch. Elizabeth and w. Ann. STUDLEY, BENJAMIN, Scituate, prob. s. of John of Boston, m. 1683, Mary, d. of John Merrit, had John, b. 11 Dec. 1684; Benjamin, 7 Dec. 1687; James, 15 July 1690; Jonathan, 19 June 1693; David, 19 Jan. 1697; Mary, 23 Sept. 1698; Elizabeth 8 June 1701, d. young; Deborah, 19 Dec. 1703; and Eliab, 10 Sept. 1706. Ano. Studley branch came into Scituate from Sandwich, as Barry tells in Hist. of Hanover, and perhaps was deriv. from John, s. of John. JOHN, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 8 Dec. 1659; and Benjamin, 23 May 1661. Perhaps he rem. STUKELEY, JOHN, a soldier under Capt. William Turner in 1676, perhaps s. of Thomas. THOMAS, Suffield, freem. 1681. STURGIS, or STURGES, EDWARD, Charlestown 1634, but tho. he was resid. there at least two yrs. he was not of the ch. rem. in few yrs. to Yarmouth, where he was count. 1643, able to bear arms, and had address. with others in Apr. 1639 to the Gov. had Mary, bapt. at Barnstable, 1 June 1646; Elizabeth b. at Y. 20 Apr. 1648, Joseph, bur. 16 Apr. 1650, few days old. Prob. he had other ch. and perhaps one was Edward, and one of his s. may have m. Mary, d. of Capt. William Hedge, nam. in his will. JOHN, Fairfield 1660, adm. freem. 1668, was next yr. a selectman, in 1679 gave ld. to his s. Jonathan; and wide has been, prob. the circulat. of his progeny. No exact account, however, is accessib. David, Eleazer, John jr. and Peter are found in 1691, of wh. some but not perhaps all, were gr. ch. His d. Deborah m. James Redfield. JOHN, Rhode Il. 1672. JOSEPH, Yarmouth 1650, perhaps s. of Edward. JOSEPH, Fairfield, prob. s. of John first of the same, is nam. 1679. PETER, Fairfield, br. of the preced. SAMULE, Barnstable, m. 14 Oct. 1697, wid.

Perhaps he was s. of Edward. It is vexatious to be unable to supply better acco. of a name so disting. in N. E. Always in Conn. the spelling is Sturges; and eight are gr. at Yale, five at Harv. STURTEVANT, or STURDEVANT, JOHN, Plymouth, perhaps br. of Samuel, more prob. his s. m. Hannah, wid. of William Crow, d. of Josiah Winslow the first. SAMUEL, Plymouth 1643, had Ann, b. 4 June 1647; [[230]] John, 17 Oct. 1650, d. soon; Samuel, 19 Apr. 1654; Hannah, 4 Sept. 1656; John, again, 6 Sept. 1658; James, 11 Feb. 1660; and Joseph, 16 July 1666; beside Mary, 7 Dec. 1651; and Lydia, 13 Dec. 1660; of wh. Ann m. 7 Dec. 1665, John Waterman. He d. 1669, prob. in Oct. in his will of 1 Aug. preced. provid. for the four s. and a ch. unb. beside s.-in-law John Waterman. Descend. have been very num. but no acco. is obtain. of the respective ch. James, it is said , d. 1756, leav. s. Caleb. See Geneal. Reg. VI. 211. WILLIAM, Norwalk, had John, b. 20 July 1676; and Sarah, 9 Apr. 1678. No more is found in Hall's Hist. STUTCH, JOHN, if the rec. may be suffic. authty. for such a name, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 21 Oct. 1662. My refer. is lost. STYCHE, HENRY, Lynn, was an efficient workman at the iron foundry in 1653, and was then 103 yrs. of age, as Lewis in Hist. of Lynn, Ed. 2, p. 143 asserts; and he adds: "How many yrs. longer he liv. history has not inform. us." That remark may raise a doubt in the mind of any reader, even if the writer be not thot. to distrust the marvel. Yet in the first Ed. I think the age was call. 102. Lamenta. that the line was not perpet. wd. be unavailing and perhaps unwise. SUCKLING, or SUCKLIN, THOMAS, Hingham, came with Francis James, as one of his serv. in the Diligent, 1638. Lincoln, Centen. Addr. 44. He was of Providence 1646, and on freem 's. list 1655, tho. not adm. bef. May 1658, engag. his alleg. to Charles II. June 1668. SUMERTON, JOB, in Essex Inst. Coll. III. 50, but in Index Summerton, I must feel, is mispr. for Swinerton. SUMMERS, HENRY, Woburn, m. 21 Nov. 1660, Rachel Reed. His wid. d. 15 June, 1690, and in Apr. of that yr. Henry, perhaps his s. of W. was adm. freem. JOHN, perhaps of Duxbury, m. Mary Sampson, d. of Henry, prob. bef. 1680.

Joseph Lord and others, to found the settlem. in Berkley Co. S. C. aft. nam. Dorchester. JOSEPH, s. of George the first, was perhaps of Milton, and is thot. to have had w. Sarah, both liv. 1730. ROGER, Dorchester, s. of William the first, b. in Eng. freem. 1657, m. Mary, d. of Thomas Josselyn of Lancaster, formerly of Hingham, had perhaps Waitstill, as eldest ch. Abigail, b. 16 Nov. 1657, d. in few mos.; Samuel, 6 Feb. 1659; rem. to Lancaster, had there Mary; William, 1673; Rebecca; and Ebenezer, bef. ment. b. 28 May 1678 aft. his ret. to D. from the destruct. by the Ind. of his resid. at L.

THOMAS, Rowley 1643. WILLIAM, Dorchester 1636, came prob. with w. Mary, and ch. William, Roger, George, Joan, and perhaps Abigail, wh. d. 19 Feb. 1658, was made freem. 17 May 1637 had Samuel, b. 18 May 1638; and Increase, 23 Feb. 1643; very oft. selectman, and rep. many yrs. His w. d. 7 June 1676, it is report. and he perhaps d. Mar. 1692, aged a. 86. He is thot. to have been only ch. of Roger of Bicester in Co. Oxford, 12 ms. from the city of O. and could only be two yrs. old when his f. made nuncup. will 3 Dec. 1608, pro. 22 Mar. foll. as set out in Geneal. Reg. IX. 300.

Clement, in his will, refers to seven; and Mercy, Jan. 1675; but the last eight were, no doubt, b. in B. where his busines drew him, and he d. soon aft. the latest b. Elizabeth m. Joshua Henshaw; Mary m. 19 Jan. 1672, Nicholas Howe. On 4 May 1687, divis. of his prop. among the ch. shows, that one d. had m. Thomas Gould, prob. ano. perhaps Hannah, m. John Goffe; and ano. m. Thomas Pratt. Yet in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 128 f. where this suppos. appears, the dilig. inq. says, that Elizabeth m. Joshua Henshaw; Mary m. 19 Jan. 1672, Nicholas Howe, and next, John Trew, prob. of Newport; Sarah m. a Turell, and aft. a Weeks; Experience m. Eleazer Carver of Taunton; and Deliverance m.

Hannah had, b. at Boston, William, 22 Nov. 1675; Hezekiah, 21 Feb. 1683; but perhaps Hannah, wh. d. at Middletown 18 Mar. 1689, was also b. at B. aft. William, and bef. Hezekiah; and Sarah, 29 Dec. 1685; rem. a. 1687 from Boston to M. there had Daniel, 26 Sept. 1688; and Ebenezer, 28 Sept 1691, d. at seven yrs. was deac. 1695, rep. 1701, 2, and d. 20 July 1703, when only Hezekiah, Daniel, and Sarah were liv. Descend. in Conn. perpet. the stock. Of this name Farmer found eleven gr. at Harv. four at Yale, and two at other N. E. coll. SUNDERLAND, SUNDERLINE, or SYNDERLAND, JOHN, Boston, [[233]] parchment maker, as in deeds he styl. hims adm. of our ch. 9 Apr. 1643, as was Dorothy, his w. 4 Apr. 1646; was sw. freem. 10 May foll. his adm. (tho. on Col. rec. spelt Sanderbant) had John, b. says the rec. Dec. 1640, bapt. 16 Apr. 1643, a. 2 and a half yrs. old; and Mary, the rec. says, 12 Mar. 1642, bapt. at same time, a. one yr. and six wks.; Hannah, 29 Sept. 1644, tho. rec. of her b.

Thomasine, d. of William Lumpkin, wid. of Samuel Mayo, he had Mary, b. 15 July 1665; and Samuel, 14 Apr. 1668. He was of ar. co. 1658, but had fallen into pov. and in 1672 made convey. of his goods to John Vial in tr. for Mary w. of his s. and d. of Vial, and her childr. His d. Mary the first m. 29 Nov. 1656, Jonathan Rainsford. He rem. to Eastham, there d. in his 85th yr. 26 Dec. 1703. His wid. d. at E. 16 June 1709 in 84th yr. His will of 27 Sept. 1700, pro. 4 Apr. 1704, provides for wid. and her ds. Mary Bangs; Sarah Freeman; and Mercy Sears; but I do not discov. the hs. of either, tho. perhaps the last was w. of Silas. JOHN, Boston, s. of the preced. m. 26 Jan. 1659, Mary, d. of John Vial, had John b. 22 Jan. 1661; Dorothy, 7 Apr. 1664; and Nathaniel, 17 Nov. 1667. SUSSELL, RICHARD, rec. as freem. 1653, at Portsmouth R. I. as by the print. Vol. I. 263, and repeat. 300, of R. I. Col. Rec. appears, is by me conject. to be the same man, whose controv. relat. to a m. with Abigail Davis, in 1656, may be seen in Ib. 349, 59,60, and 5. Yet Ussell may seem as wilful a pervers. as the other. SUTHERLAND, MATTHEW, R. I. 1639. SUTLIFFE, ABRAHAM, Scituate 1640, by Sarah had Abraham and perhaps others, was liv. 166l, and the s. Abraham had a ho. in 1670. NATHANIEL, Medfield, m. 31 Jan. 1675, Hannah, eldest d. of John Plimpton, but I kn. no more, exc. that he was liv. in 1678.

JOHN, Hingham, came in the Diligent, 1638, with w. and four ch. as the rec. of blessed Daniel Cushing assures us, from Attleburg in Co. Norfolk, a town a. 15 ms. from Norwich, but less than half that dist. from Hingham; encourag. the sett. of Rohoboth, where ld. was assign. him in 1644, but forfeit. by non. rem. As he is call. sen. perhaps one of his ch. may have been s. John; but of the stock I gather no more. JOHN, Scituate, s. of George m. 1661, Elizabeth d. of Samuel House, had Elizabeth b. [[234]] 1662; John, 1664; Mary, 1666; Sarah, 1668; Hannah, 1670; Esther, 1673; Benjamin, 1675; Nathaniel, 1677; and Nathan, 1679; was an ens. in Philip's war, and d. in 1691, by his will ment. w. and all the ch. exc. Elizabeth and Benjamin, wh. perhaps were d. Ano. John, wh. d. at Rehoboth 1670, is by Deane thot. to be s. of Simon, and by me of the first John. JOSEPH, freem. of Conn. sw. 1658, was of unkn. town. JOSEPH, Boston, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 31 July 1659. JULIAN, Rehoboth, was bur. 4 June 1678; but no more is kn. of him. LAMBERT, Charlestown, was adm. of the ch. 4 Apr. 1641, liv. in Woburn, freem. 1644, d. 27 Nov. 1649. RICHARD, Charlestown, a householder 1677, may have been of Roxbury 1650, where his w. Rachel d. 10 Nov. 1672, and a propr. of Lancaster 1653. RICHARD, Andover 1664, may aft. have liv. at Reading. SIMON, Scituate 1647, perhaps br. of Geroge, of wh. we kn. no more, but that he was witn. of Nathaniel Tilden's will, and was there 1643. WILLIAM, Eastham, m. 11 July 1666, Damaris Bishop, had Alice, b. 13 May 1668; Thomas, 11 Nov. 1669; Mary, 4 Oct. 1671; may be the man pf Newbury, wh. m. 27 Oct. 1679, Mary Gassell, or Gaffell, as Coffin has the name, and d. 7 May 1690. Of ano. William, wh. d. 9 May, the inv. was giv. 20 June 1680 by his wid. Sarah. But this was in Essex Co. One William was a soldier in the Phips expedit. of 1690 under Gallup. SWADDON, PHILIP, Watertown, serv. of Robert Seely, 1630, set free next yr. on condit. of pay £10 to his master, was of Kittery 1640. SWADOCK, JOHN, Haverhill 1685, took o. of alleg. Nov. 1677. SWAIN, SWAYNE, or SWAINE, sometimes SWEYEN, DANIEL, Branford, s. of William, b. in Eng. one of the found. of the ch. and town 1664, in freem's. list 1669, was rep. 1673-7, his signat. in fac-simile, Geneal. Reg. III. 153, is pervert. by change of the two final letters, ne for er. He did not partake of the exciteme. that carr. many of his town with their min. to N. J. but was engag. build. up fam. and town, m. 1651, Dorcas, d. of Robert Rose of STratford, had Daniel, b. 26 July 1652; Deborah, 24 Apr. 1654; Samuel, 23 Dec. 1655; Dorcas, 2 Dec. 1657; JOhn, 20 Dec. 1660; Joshua, 12 Jan. 1663; Rachel; David; and Hannah; and he d. 1690 or 1.

FRANCIS, Exter 1645, rem. to Middleburg, L. I. 1657, was s. of Richard of Hampton, b. in Eng. brot. by his f. at the age of 14, with his elder br. William from London, 1635, in the Rebecca, while he came later in the same yr. had w. Martha, d. under mid. age, [[235]] and his wid. m. Caleb Leverich. HENRY, Charlestown, s. perhaps of Jeremy the first, was one of the comp. of Capt. Moseley in Philp's war, a householder in 1678, m. 21 Aug. 1679, Hannah, d. of Benjamin Lothrop of the same. Frothingham, 88, counts Henry an inhab. of 1638; but that seems, as he was not in 1658, prob. a mist. for Jeremy. JEREMY, Charlestown 1638, by w. Mary, or Mercy, had Jeremy, b. 1 Mar. 1643; John, 30 Jan. 1645; and perhaps others, certain. at Reading, Sarah, 29 Jan. 1655; and he d. at R. 2 Apr.1658. JEREMY, Reading, s. prob. of the preced. rep. 1689, and the same yr. chos. Assist. but had a very small vote at the pop. elect. 1692, and was not nam. in new Chart. may have been f. of Jeremy, freem. 1691, was certain. much engag. in the Ind. war, as head of a regim. Aug. 1691. See Magn. VII. 67, and Niles. JOHN, Nantuckett, prob. s. of Richard the first, had John b. 1 Sept. 1664, by tradit. the first male, b. there; Stephen, 21 Nov. 1666; Sarah, 13 July, 1670; Joseph, 17 July 1673; Elizabeth 17 May 1676; Benjamin, 5 July 1679; and Hannah; Patience; and Mary; without dates, but the last nam. is thot. to be the eldest of all; all perhaps by Mary, d. of Nathaniel Wyer, but we are not sure of more than that he d. 1717; and is said to have been b. 1633, but I doubt the report. JOHN, Branford, s. of Daniel of the same, and only one, wh. had ch. yet d. 1694, bef. mid. age, leav. Eunice, and John. NICHOLAS, Hampton 1643. RICHARD, Rowley 1639, came in the Truelove, 1635 aged 34, or rather more, emb. at London, 17 Sept. hav. in Apr. sent, perhaps his w. Elizabeth in the Planter, s. William, and Francis, in the Rebecca; and d. Elizabeth in the Susan and Ellen, under care of various friends, freem. 13 Mar. 1639, had liberty the yr. bef. to plant, with others, at Hampton, where in 1639 he had authty. to sett. small causes, but had Elizabeth bapt. at Newbury 9 Oct. 1638; m. 1658 or 9, Jane, wid. of George Bunker, perhaps by her had Richard; and lost his w. in childb. 31 Oct. 1662, at. Nantucket, and d. 14 Apr. 1682. He had, also, d. Dorothy, wh. m. Thomas Abbot, and next Edward Chapman; and Elizabeth m. Nathaniel Weare. RICHARD, Nantucket, perhaps s. of the preced. had Abigail, b. 7 Feb. 1684; and Jonathan, 23 Dec. 1685; and may have had more; but rem. to N. J. where are descend. the nautical S. of Cape May. SAMUEL, Branford, elder br. of Daniel, b. in Eng. was lieut. and rep. 1663; as friend of Rev. Mr. Pierson, went with first sett. to Newark, N. J. and was rep. in the first assemb. of that province, but Whitehead, in "E Jersey under the Proprs." 52, calls him Swarne. Who his w. was, is not kn. but he had some ch. as Elizabeth wh. m. Josiah Ward, and next David Ogden; and Mary, b. 1 May 1649, both bapt. at New Haven, 1 June 1651, of wh. Mary d. at 6 yrs.; Phebe, b. 24 May 1654; Mary, again, 12 June 1656; Christian, 25 Apr. 1659, wh. m. Nathaniel Ward; Sarah, 7 Oct. 1661; and perhaps more bef. or aft. rem. WILLIAM, Watertown, came in the EIizabeth and Ann, from London, 1635, aged [[236]] 50, was adm. freem. at the Gen. Ct. 3 Mar. foll. when he was appoint. with Ludlow, and others, commissnrs. to rule the new settlem. at Conn. serv. as rep. 1636, May in Mass. and in Sept. held Court in the young Col. next yr. he contin. to act as Assist. perhaps under the Mass. delegat. but not in 1638, when the inhab. of Conn. took the whole admin. of their own affairs, tho. their formal constitut. was not adopt. bef. Jan. 1639. He sat down at Wethersfield, of wh. he was rep. 1641-3; soon aft. being chos. again Assist. 1644, he rem. with s. Samuel and Daniel to the W. and lighted on or near Branford 1644, there prob. d. His d. Mary, early a mem. of Roxbury ch. m. and went to New Haven says the rec. WILLIAM, Hampton, s. of Richard the first, b. in Eng. by w. Prudence had William, Prudence, Hannah, Bethia, and Hezekiah, of wh. the order of success. is not kn. and he and his w. d. a. 1657 or 8. WILLIAM, Hampton, s. of the preced. took the o. of alleg. 1678. Very oft. this name is mistak. for Swan, and that for this. In Winthrop II. 29, is the story of one S. of York, wh. fell into despair, and hang. hims. in Mar. 1641. SWALLOW, AMBROSE, Chelmsford, 1692, perhaps, says Farmer in MS. was previous. of Dunstable. JOHN, Newport 1651, as found by Stiles. SWAN, or SWANN, EBENEZER, Cambridge, s. of John of the same, d. 27 July 1740, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 29 Mar. 1699; Sarah, 26 Feb. 1701; Ebenezer, 23 Mar. 1704; Mary, 4 Mar. 1707; Samuel, 5 Apr. 1711; and William, 31 Jan. 1714. GERSHOM, Cambridge, s. of John of the same, m. 20 Dec. 1677, Sarah, d. of Richard Holden, had Sarah, b. a. 1679; Rebecca, 24 Aug. 1681, d. young; John, 3 Oct. 1683; Ruth, 25 Dec. 1685; Abigail, 12 Feb. 1687; Lydia, 10 Nov. 1689; Rebecca, bapt. 14 Aug. 1698 and perhaps more; and he d. 2 July 1708. HENRY, Salem, adm. of the ch. 19 May, and freem. 22 May 1639, had Thomas, bapt. 26 Feb. 1643; and Elizabeth 8 Feb. 1646. HENRY, Boston, and no more is kn. of him, but that by w. Joan he had Sarah, and d. bef. her, whose d. is rec. at B. 23 Dec. 1651. JOHN, Cambridge, serv. to Thomas Bittlestone, nam. in his will, 1640, m. 1 Jan. or as ano. acco. says, Feb. 1651, Rebecca Palfrey, d. prob. of a wid. wh. came from Eng. had Ruth, b. 10 Mar. 1652, and Gershom, 30 June 1654. She d. 12 July 1654, and he m. 1 Mar. 1656, Mary Pratt, had Samuel, b. 3 Apr. or 1 May 1657 d. 19 June 1678, says the gr.stone; Mary, 2 May 1659; Elizabeth 14 July 1661; Lydia, 28 July 1663; John, 1 May 1665; Hannah, 27 Feb. 1668, and Ebenezer, 14 Nov. 1672. The f. was freem. 29 Apr. 1668, and d. 5 June 1708, aged 87, and his w. d. 11 Feb. 1703 in her 70th yr. as Harris tells. Elizabeth m. Ezekiel Ricardson of Woburn. JOHN, Westfield, is an alias name of SEVAN, as the Rev. Mr. Davis read the orig. rec. wh. is hardly to be call. a possib. [[237]] one, but a more practis. eye gave me the assurance that the name was SCORE. Nobody will dispute the prob. that Mr. Judd got hold of the right letters. RICHARD, Boston, join. our ch. 6 Jan. 1639, had John, bapt. next Sunday, and was dism. 24 Nov. foll. with others to form a ch. at Rowley, freem. 13 May aft. was rep. 1666 and many yrs. more, and d. 1678. His w. was Ann, ch. Richard, Frances, Robert, Jonathan, Susan, or Julian, and perhaps more ch. certain. ds. Frances, m. Mark Quilter, and Sarah m. Joseph Boynton. Julian had m. 18 Feb. 1654, Samuel Stickney, bore him four ch. and d. bef. her f. but his will, of 1678, beside these, name ds. Abigail Bailey, Mary Kilborn, and s. Caleb Hopkinson, John Hopkinson, and John Trumbull. I conject. that John Trumbull rem. from Roxbury to Rowley soon aft. Swan, m. his d. Ann, and d. 1657, leav. sev. ch. prob. Joseph and Judah among the. RICHARD, Rowley, prob. s. of the preced. free m. 1684. ROBERT, Haverhill 1646, by w. Elizabeth had prob. Robert, and perhaps Timothy and others. ROBERT, Haverhill, prob. s. of the preced. took o. of alleg. 28 Nov. 1677, and was rep. 1684. TIMOTHY, Andover, s. of Robert the first, d. 1 Feb. 1693, aft. long afflict. suppos. by witchcraft, as Rev. Mr. Hale in his Hist. p. 38, tells, of wh. Elizabeth Johnson, perhaps w. of Stephen, acknowl. bef. Justice Dudley Bradstreet, 10 Aug. 1692, that she had a hand in it, but she was so liberal in confess. many other torments bestow. by her upon other neighbors that I believe she saved her life by her falsehoods. See 39 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 124. But the magistr. was slow to believe the horrible confess. of his neighb. against themselves, and so the baffled bloodhounds wh. rejoic. in the diabolical delus. were let loose upon him, as a Saducee. THOMAS, Roxbury, m. Mary, d. of Thomas Lamb, had Henry, b. in Boston (where prob. he first pursu. his. profess.), 16 May 1665, wh. d. young; and Thomas wh. d. 1668; but at R. had Thomas, again, b. 15 Sept. 1669, H. C. 1689; Dorothy, 29 Dec. 1672; Peter, and Dorothy, prob. tw. 1674, d. very soon; Henry, 29 Mar. 1678, d. soon; Henry, again, 24 Mar. foll.; Mary, 4 June 1681; Peter, 7 June 1684, d. soon; and Ebenezer, 12 May 1686; was a physician and d. perhaps in Feb. 1688. His ho. was burn. in the night of 11 July 1681, for wh. Maria, a negro serv. of Joshua Lamb, being convict. by her confess. at the Court in Sept. foll. the Gov. benignant Bradstreet, pronunc. the sentence of d. by the form. of burn. and the horrid solemnity was public. THOMAS, Roxbury, s. of the preced. m. 27 Dec. 1692, Prudence Wade of Medford. Twelve of this name at Harv. and two at Yale had been gr. in 1846. SWARTON, JOHN, Beverly 1672 SWASEY, SWAZEY, SWAYSY, JOSEPH, Salem , by w. Mary had Joseph, b. 13 Oct. 1653; Elizabeth 1 Dec. 1655; Mary, 21 Apr. 1659; Abigail, 24 Jan. 1662; Samuel, 19 Aug. 1664; John, 30 Sept. 1666; and Stephen, a. 22 Sept. 1669 and in 1680, Elizabeth perhaps his d. more prob. his wid. m. John Lightfoot at that town. JOSEPH, Salem, s. of the preced. m. 16 Oct. 1678, Elizabeth Lambert, had Samuel, b. 14 Sept. 1682; Elizabeth 20 May 1684; and Joseph, 20 Aug. 1685. [[238]] SWATMAN, JOHN, Cambridge, is no doubt error in Genealog. Reg. IX. 168 (but truly tak. from the old book in Boston), for Thomas Sweetman; and the date of b. of the first ch is one yr. too early. SWELUS, an unfortun. name in Geneal. Reg. II. 264, belongs, I am confident, to Robert Twelves of Braintree. See, also, an equal mistake in Quelves. SWEET, SWAITE, or SWEETE, BENONI, Warwick, or Kingstown, s. of the first James, had James, b. 1688; Margaret 1690; Benoni, 1692; Mary, 1696; Elizabeth 1700; and Thomas, 1703; perhaps all, perhaps only the last two, by w. Elizabeth DANIEL, a Warwick, s. of the first John of Warwick, made his willl in 1728. HENRY, Swanzey, m. 29 Jan. 1687, Elizabeth d. of Philip Walker, and was aft. of Attleborogh, had five ch. JAMES, had been of Salem 1631, call. s. of Isaac, wh. prob. d. in Eng. and a wid. S. perhaps his mo. had gr. of Id. there 1637, on the list of freem. 1655, of Warwick, there m. Mary, d. of the first John Greene of the same, had Philip, b. 15 July 1655; James, 8 May 1657; Mary, 2 Feb. 1660 Benoni, 28 Mar. 1663; Valentine, 14 Feb. 1665; Samuel, 1 Nov. 1667, b. at Prudence isl.; Jeremiah, 6 Jan. 1669; Renewed, 16 July 1671; and Sylvester, 1 Mar. 1674, at Potowomut. JOHN, Boston, 1640, shipwright, or caulker, join. our ch. and was freem. 2 June 1641, by w. Temperance, wh d. Jan. 1645 (strange. misprint. Temperance Jewett in ment. of her ch. censure by Drake, Hist. of Boston, 252), had Temperance, wh. d. 28 Nov. 1661; and by w. Susanna, wh. join. our ch. 23 May 1647, he had Susanna, b. 3, bapt. 11 Apr. 1647; John, 8, bapt. 21 Sept. 1651, d. young; Mary, 28 Jan. bapt. 5 Feb. 1653; Abigail, 4 May 1656, d. in few days; Mehitable, b. 8, bapt. 11 Oct. 1657, d. soon; Mehitable, again, b. 8 Dec. 1659. JOHN, Charlestown, shoemaker, d. 18 May 1695, near 80, says the gr. stone. His w. d. 16 July 1666, aged 44, and he d. 25 Apr. 1685, aged 82, as the gr. stones in Copp's. hill show. and Sewall's diary says, he was bur. 20 Apr. JOHN, Warwick, br. of James prob. elder, perhaps brot. from Eng. by his mo. Mary, wid. of Isaac Sweet, wh. there m. Ezekiel Holliman, hav. two s. this John, and James, beside a d. Meribah, whose name by Holliman was alter. to Renewed, bef. she m. John Geraerd; is on freem's. list 1665, had a grist mill, and other works on the Potowomut, in the Naraganset country, burnt by the Ind. in Philip's war, 1675, in his will of 1677, then of Newport, names w. Elizabeth and ch. John, Daniel, James, Henry, Richard, Benjamin, William, and Jeremiah, beside a d. JOHN, Wickford, had w. Elizabeth and ch. John, Elizabeth James, and Sarah, as from his will, in 1716, on rec. of Wickford, appears. Ano. JOHN, of Wickford, was f. of the preced. but d. the yr. aft. him, had beside him, Deborah, James, and Mary, as also sec. w. Rachel. JOSEPH, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Benjamin, b. 22 Jan. 1660. RICHARD, Westerly, s. prob. of John, m. 15 Dec. [[239]] 1673, perhaps Mehitable, d. of Edward Larkin the first of the same; and prob. for sec w. had Priscilla, d. of the sec.

Elizabeth m. 7 Dec. 1671, Benjamin Wellington; Rebecca m. Michael Spencer; Sarah m. 9 Jan. 1674, Josiah Treadway, and d. 5 MAr. 1697; and Bethia m. James Hewes of Boston. SWEETSER, or SWITZER, BENJAMIN, Charlestown 1658, s. of Seth of the same, b. in Eng. then a householder, was next yr. fined L50 and imprison. as a Bapt. Prob. he had s. Seth, and perhaps other ch. and certain. d. 22 July 1718. SAMUEL, Malden, by w. Elizabeth had Samuel, b. 3 Apr. 1701; John, 12 Feb. 1703; Jacob, 6 Apr. 1705; and Michael, 19 May 1707.

Large. is. the name diffus. in this neighborhood. SWETLAND, or SWEETLAND, WILLIAM, Salem, by w. Agnes had Peter, b. 1 Sept. 1676; Grace, 8 Mar. 1680; John, 1 Sept. 1681; and Joseph, 5 Jan. 1684. SWETT, BENJAMIN, Newbury, s. of John the first, b. in Eng. 1626, m. as said in Geneal. Reg. VI. 50, Esther, d. of Peter Weare, had Esther, b. 7 June 1648, perhaps mean.

His wid. m. Capt. Stephen Greenleaf, 31 Mar. 1678, as fam. rep. says, but Coffin, with better regard, calls it 1679, as the first w. of this sec. h. d. Nov. 1678. Of his ds.

Stephen, 27 Jan. 1684; Joseph, 2 Feb. 1687; and Benjamin, 11 Apr. 1688. JOHN, Narraganset 1687.

H. there d. early in 1753, leav. wid. Sarah. JOSEPH, Newbury, perhaps s. of the first John, m. 1650, says Coffin, but tells no more; was of Haverhill 1653, and I judge, that he rem. to Boston, where by w. Elizabeth had Joseph, b. 26 Oct. 1658; and Benjamin, 22, bapt. 29 Jan. 1660. Yet nothing more is fofund. JOSEPH, Hampton, s. of Benjamin the first, took o. of fidel. Apr. 1678. MOSES, Hampton, br. of the preced. took o. of fidel. Dec. 1678, m. 12 May 1687, Mary Hussey, had Mary, b. 2 Feb. 1689; and Esther, 10 June 1690, beside four or five others, of wh. one was Deliverance. His will of 15 Apr. 1719, perhaps wd. allow us to suppose all the ch. dec. STEPHEN, Newbury, s. prob. of the first John, b. a 1620 in Eng. m. 24 May 1647, Hannah, d. of the first John Merrill, had John, b. 20 Oct. 1648, d. at 4 yrs.; Stephen, 20 Aug. 1650, d. in few days; Hannah, 7 Oct. 1651; Stephen, again, 28 Jan. 1654; Elizabeth 16 Jan. 1656; Joseph, 28 Nov. 1657; and Mary, 17 Mar. 1662.

In old rec. the name is oft. Sweet. Six had in 1828 been gr. at Harv. as Farmer MS. notes. So oft. is the interchange of Sweet and Swett in old rec. that we must not depend on spell. [[241]] SWIFT, EPHRAIM, Sandwich, s. of William sec. perhaps by w.

WILLIAM, Medford or Charlestown, s. of the preced. m. Ruth, perhaps d. of Josiah Convers of Woburn, had William, b. 10 Oct. 1705, wh. d. young; Zechariah, 1 Sept. 1707; Josiah, 7 Apr. 1710, d. young; Elizabeth; Timothy; John; and William, H. C. 1750, min. of Andover; and d. 24 May 1764. ZECHARIAH, Charlestown, came in 1634, with Rev. John Lothrop, William Hutchinson and his w. the gr. prophetess, arr. 18 Sept. brot. w. Sarah and ch. Sarah; William, bapt. 10 Jan. 1627; Mary, 16 Apr. 1628; Elizabeth 1 Jan. 1630; Hulda, 18 Mar. 1631; Hannah, 22 Aug. 1632; and Rebecca, 12 Feb. 1634; had here Ruth, b. 18, bapt. 25 Oct. 1635; Zechariah, 9, bapt. 14 Jan. not 9, as Geneal. Reg. XIII. p. 5, says, 1638, H. C. 1657; Timothg 7, bapt. 10 May 1640, d. soon Deborah, 28 Aug. bapt. 4 Sept. 1642; but the dates of bapt. of the last three are wrong, in the copy by Budington scrupulously. foll. and the orig. being lost, we are always doubtful, whether the transcript is correct. In ea. of the three cases, the Geneal. Reg. XIII. 135, has used the day of birth, but without turn. to the almanac, call. it the day of bapt. Worse error than this readers may be led into by tak. the order of the ch. where Sarah is rank. under 12, as the youngest d. when she was the eldest of the eight ds. if not of the thirteen ch. Timothy, again, whose date is not found; and one more s. of Mather, III. 132, has correct. quot. his epit. wh. is doubted. His neighb. Johnson, so many yrs. his parishioner, speaks of ch. "their. numb. being ten, both s. and ds. a certain sign of the Lord's intent to people this vast wilderness," he adds, with juster application of the doings of Providence, than he usual. exhibits. He was b. at Canterbury, in Co. Kent, 5 Apr. 1599, s. of Rev. William, matric. 1617 at Emanuel, and took at the Univ. of Cambridge his A. B. 1620-1, preach. as a lecturer at the ch. of St. Atholines, London, m. July 1621, and there had eldest d. Sarah, but in 1625 bec. rector of Dunstable, in wh. office he had large serv. dur. the plague that extend. wide that yr. Mather, wh. confess. his informat. is not large, says, he was always worried by the prelatists for insuffic. conform. His liv. was not a very good one, as his success. in 1842 wrote me, and his fam. beiug num. he saw prospects of more enlarg. usefulness on our side of the water, join. the ch. of Boston, with his w. 5 Oct. 1634, and that of C. 5 Dec. next, was freem. 6 May foll. was held in high regard, and d. 28 Jan. and was bur. I suppose 4 Feb. 1672, tho. various [[244]] yrs. are nam. his wid. d. 1676. Of his thirteen ch. ten were liv. to be nam. in his will of 20 Jan. 1664. Sarah m. 1650, Rev. Samuel Hough of Reading, wh. d. Mar. 1662, and she m. Nov. foll. his succesor in the pulpit, John Brock; Mary m. 15 Sept. 1652, as sec. w.

It was pro. 31 Mar. 1672, and names the s. William, Zechariah, and Timothy. In his wilI br. William is ment. but he was prob. in Eng. and never came to our country. ZECHARIAH, Bradford, s. of the preced. m. 18 Nov. 1669, Susanna, d. of Thomas Graves of Charlestown, had Sarah, b. 20 May 1672; Zechariah, 13 Mar. 1674; both at B. and at Charlestown had Catharine b. 29 Mar. bapt. 2 Apr. 1676; and b. at B. Thomas, Jan. 1678, H. C. 1698; William, 7 Jan. 1680; and Rebecca, 20 July 1681. His w. d. three days aft. and he m. 26 Nov. 1683, Mehitable, wid. of Samuel Dalton of Hampton. Some confus. is seen a. this fam. in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 135, 6. He had first preach. a short time at Rehoboth, but at B. preach. 14 yrs. Budington says, bef. he was ord. 27 Dec. 1682, and d. 22 Mar. 1708. His s. Thomas was a man of distinct. and suceed. his f. Eliot's Biogr. Dict. gives agreeab. details. Of one of this name, prob. a maiden wh. d. at Cambridge 10 June 1653, no diligence of inquiry can be expect. to enlarge the report of Mr. Paige, "Mrs. Sarah Symmes had a gr. of ld 1639. She appears to have been a lady of wealth, and a mem. of the ch." SYMONDS, BENJAMIN, Woburn, s. of William, freem. 1690, by w. Rebecca had William, b. 14 Feb. 1679; Benjamin, 14 Jan. 1681; Joseph, 1 Mar. 1683; John, 23 Mar. 1685; Rebecca, 6 June 1687; Daniel, 21 Feb. 1690; Jacob, 26 May 1692; Judith, 5 Oct. 1695; and Huldah, 25 Oct. 1700. CALEB, Woburn, br. of the preced. freem. 1690, m. 25 Sept. 1677, Sarah Bacon, had Samuel, b. 30 June 1687; James, 15 Jan. 1684; and Sarah, 11 Nov. 1687, wh. d. in few days. HARLAKENDEN, Gloucester, s. of Samuel the first, b. in Eng. a. 1628, brot. by his f. in 1637, freem. 1665, had w. Elizabeth call. in the will of 3 May 1670, made by Sarah, wid. of Richard Mather (wh. had been wid. of great John Cotton, and in Eng. by him m. as the wid. Story), her gr.ch. and may well be judg. the same in Cotton's will, 1652, nam. as his ch. Betty Day. We know, Cotton then had no gr. ch. and this ch. must have been b. of some d. of the wid. Story, wh. in Eng. or here had m. a Day. That name is found early both at Ipswich and Gloucester; but, tho. Mr. Felt has large [[245]] acquaint. with the early inhab. of both those towns, he can discov. no f. for. this w. of Symonds. By her he had, at G. Sarah, b. 2 July 1668, wh. by the will of her gr. gr. mo. Mather, had gift of one of her cows. But I kn. no more of him exc. that he went home and liv. at Wethersfield in Eng. 1672; nor is it kn. that he ever came back. Mr. Babson informs us, that the wid. ret. to G. where the d. m. a. 1692 Thomas Low; and her mo. d. 31 Jan. 1728, aged 90. HENRY, Boston 1643, perhaps the freem. of 10 May, a man of enterprise, undertook the work of mak. the mill creek for a mill power, under a vote of July, with George Burden, John Button, John Hill and assoc. as is fully stat. in Snow's Hist. of Boston, 124, 5. But he d. in Sept. foll. and was bur. 14th. He had been recommend. by pastor of a ch. at Southampton, and in that right his posthum. ch. was bapt. here 21 Apr. 1644, a. 3 days old by the name, Richgrace, giv. by the wid. mo. no doubt. So it might be infer. that he had gone from Lynn with Rev. Abraham Pierson; and Lechford's Plain Dealing, 43, makes it certain, that he was one of the found. of Pierson's ch. gather. at Lynn, 1641, as Winthrop tells, II. 6, for the object of going to the E. end of Long Island, tho. it is implied from Lechford's language, that he never went. His wid. m. Isaac Walker, and her name was Susan, as appears in act of our Gen. Ct. Rec. II. 104, confirm. to Christopher Lawson est. in Boston that S. had engag. to sell him. JAMES, Salem, s. of John of the same, suppos. to be b. in 1633, perhaps in Eng. m. 20 Nov. 1661, Elizabeth Browning, perhaps d. of Thomas, had Mary, b. 1 Nov. 1662; Ruth, 19 Feb. 1664; John, 8 July 1666; James, 14 Feb. 1671, d. young; Elizabeth 6 Mar. 1673, d. soon; James, again, 1 Apr. 1674; Benjamin, 7 Jan. 1685; Thomas, 1 Apr. 1677; Elizabeth again, 29 Sept. 1679, d. young; Joseph, 20 Mar. 1682; Sarah, 21 Feb. 1688; and Elizabeth again, wh. d. young. As I find not his d. I presume he rem. His eldest d. m. I suppose, 3 Dec. 1685, the third Edward Norris. JAMEES, Woburn, m. 29 Dec. 1685, Susanna Blodget, perhaps d. of the first Samuel, had James, b. 1 Nov. 1686; Susanna, 2 May 1689; Abigail, 17 Jan. 1692; Sarah, 13 Dec. 1694; Nathan, 12 June 1697; and Ruth, 12 Dec. 1699. Prob. he rem. JOHN, Salem 1637, freem. Mar. 1638, had w. Elizabeth and ch. beside James bef. ment.; Samuel, whose bapt. was 4 Nov. 1638; Catharine; and Ruth; and d. a. 1671. His will of 16 Aug. was pro. 19 Sept. of that yr. Catharine, m. 26 June 1657, Jacob Towne of Topsfield; and Ruth m. 19 July 1658, Job Swinnerton of Salem, and d. 22 May 1670. JOHN, Braintree, had d. Ann wh. d. June 1640. JOHN, Portsmouth 1631, one of the men sent by Mason the gr. propr. was aft. of Kittery, in 1650 was "sw. constable for the riv. of Pascataquack," as my copy of York rec. says; and it is prob. that he kept his precinct in good order, for he submit. in 1652 to Mass. and in 1655 and 8 he was of the gr. jury. JOHN, Salem, m. 3 Mar. 1690, Sarah, d. of John Waters, had John, b. 22 Mar. 1692. JOSEPH, Hartford, m. Abigail, d. of Samuel Spencer. [[246]] MARK, Ipswich, in 1634 was call. 50 yrs. old, freeem. 2 May 1638, d. 28 Apr. 1659.

But one of his ws. was not (as frequent. has been boasted), a d. of the first Gov. Winthrop, who had only of four ds. that outliv. two yrs. and she m. Samuel Dudley. The mistake. arose from the use of the word sis. S. in the letter 30 Sept. 1648, of first Winthrop to his s. John wh. had been a mem. of the ch. at Ipswich, and may refer only to Christian relat.

Peter, may well be; and that his bapt. name must make him s. of Gershom is almost certain, for Peter, of Fairfield, s. of the first Peter; was d. leav. s. of the same name too young to be m. in 1700; and Peter s. of Edward was d. without leav. s. of this name. But greater doubt in my mind is of the yr. to wh. this Rachel's m. is postpon. by him, tho. undoubted. the Wethersfield rec. says "Mr. Peter B. and Rachel T. were m. 21 Mar. 1699," i. e. 1700, N. S.

TARBOX, JOHN, Lynn, may well seem an early sett. without giv. full faith to Farmer, wh. rel. on Lewis, that he was there 1630; had Jonathan, wh. d. 16 June 1654; Samuel b. a. 1647; and John, posthum. 20 July 1674; but the dates of b. are not found; was engag. in the iron works, as a propr. in small way, 1656, and d. 26 May 1674. His will of 25 Nov. preced. ment. two s.

Nov. foll. he names s. John, Lazarus, and Benjamin, as men, beside Joseph, as under age, and ds.

JOHN, Dover 1648, tax. there that yr. as Geneal. Reg. VIII. 130 gives it. tho. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 31, the name is Tart. He was of Maine, gr. jury 1649. JOSEPH, Gloucester, s. of Richard the first, m. 28 July 1719, Sarah Sargent, had Abigail, Joseph, Benjamin, and Nathaniel, and rem. to Maine. RICHARD, Gloucester, had been, 1680, at Marblehead, there m. and had William and John, but was attract. a. 1690, by the commodi. situat. of that part of the cape, call. Sandy bay, now Rockport, and was one of its earliest sett. had Elizabeth b. 1691; Honour, 1693; Richard, 1695; Joseph, 1698; Benjamin, 1700; Caleb, 1703; Samuel, 1706; and Sarah, 1716, He was, of course, a fisherman, and is thought to have been k. by the Ind. off Penobscot 1724. RICHARD, Gloucester, s. of the preced. m. 20 Feb. 1722, Grace Hodgkins, as Babson says, had Hazelelponi, b. that yr.; and William, 1724. SAMUEL, Gloucester, youngest s. of Richard of the same, m. 12 Oct. 1726, Elizabeth William, had four s. but was drown. at Sheepscot riv. 1739. William, Gloucester, eldest br. of the preced. m. 1708, Elizabeth Felt, had sev. ch. of wh. Babson does not give names. TART, EDWARD, Scituate, nam. as his serv. in the will of Nathaniel Tilden, and in 1643, serv. of Joseph Tilden, s. of N. THOMAS, Scituate 1640, had, as Deane thot. d.

SAMUEL, Dover, was prob. s. of the preced. and in June 1704 mort. wound. by the Ind. TATENHAM, ELIAS, Boston, by w. Mary had Elias, b. 2 Dec. 1683, TATMAN, or TOTMAN, JABEZ, Roxbury, s. of John, m. 18 Nov. 1668, Deborah Turner, perhaps d. of John, wh. d. 31 May or 1 June 1689, the town rec. giv. both days, had Elizabeth b. 9 Dec. 1675, d. at 3 yrs.; Sarah, 9 Nov. 1683, d.

He had indulg. in 1639, from the Gen. Ct. for liv. more than half a mile from the ch. His will of 30 Sept. 1670 takes notice of nobody but s. Jabez, to wh. he gives all his prop. The name is Totman, in the London rec. TAUNTON, MATTHEW, Boston, by w. Susanna had Elizabeth b. 2 May 1688. TAWLEY, THOMAS, Boston, by w. Mary had John, b. 7 Apr. 1678; Hannah, 16 Apr. 1680; and Jane, 2 Mar. 1682. At Salem, in 1682, the name of John T. occurs, and thither, I think, the Boston man rem. TAY, or TOY, HENRY, Ipswich, d. a. 1655; and no more is kn. to Felt. * ISAIAH, Boston, s. of William of the same, serv. in Philip's war, was rep. in 1700, and oft. aft. JEREMIAH, Boston, br. of the preced. by w. Mercy had Jeremiah, b. 19 Jan. 1685, d. young; Woodward, 12 Feb. 1687; William, 16 June 1689; Jeremiah, again, 30 Oct. 1693; Isaiah, 5 Sept. 1696; and Mercy, 5 July 1703. JOHN, Boston, had been here but short time when he made his will, wh. is one of the first three in our Vol. I. pro. 7 Dec. 1641, refer. to s. Allen in Eng. wh. prob. never came. He was, I judge, a trader, as he speaks of goods remain. beside beq. of money and especial. of trees, no doubt fruit trees, as in Geneal. Reg. II. 104, may be read. NATHANIEL, Billerica 1679, br. of the preced. m. 30 May 1677, Bathsheba, d. of John Wyman. WILLIAM, Boston, in July 1643, gave Leonard Buttels two acres on Long Isl. and rec. from him 20 acres in Muddy riv. and in mid. life was distiller, m. 14 Sept. 1644, Grace, d. of Abraham Newell, at Roxbury, had Grace, b. 23 Aug. 1645; John, bapt. at B. 21 Nov. 1647, being 5 days old; Isaiah, 4, bapt. 10 Mar. 1650; Abiel, 21, bapt. 23 Jan. 1653; Nathaniel, 23, bapt.

Billerica 1659, liv. there few yrs. and one yr. was town clk. was freem. 1663, not as Farmer made it 1650, with a supposit. s. of the same name. His will, of [[259]] 28 Apr. 1680, pro 12 Apr. 1683, calls hims. 72 yrs. old, makes w. Grace sole excor. gives Jeremiah and Elizabeth the ground "that the house was burnt on," in the fire of 1679, I suppose; but they are charg. to pay L10 to his gr.d. Elizabeth T. at age of 18, or m. "that is my eldest son's d." and of est. at Billerica devises housing to Nathaniel, some to d. Grace Meade of Billerica, whose h. is not of my acquanint. and some to s. Isiah, beside some in Boston.

ANTHONY, Hampton 1644, feltmaker, rem. to Dover, there was 1671; and is said to have d. 4 Nov. 1687, aged 80; but in 1678 one Anthony perhaps his s. sw. alleg. and certain. had s. John, and tradit. gives him Lydia, wh. m. 23 Mar. 1666, John Moulton, beside Martha, wh. m. 25 Sept. 1667, Hezron Leavitt. CLEMENT, Dorchester, owes his being to Farmer under introduct. of Harris, the creat. being due in the highest prob. to the same bad writ. or ill read. as made Tapley out of Topliff. DANIEL, Saybrook 1689. EDWARD, Lynn 1639, freem. 1648, rem. to Reading and d. 1694. EDWARD, Providence, by w. Hannah had Edward, b. 8 Oct. 1655.

He had preach. some yrs. there bef. he was ord. 27 Aug. 1679, was freem. 1678, or 1680, for his name is in both lists, and d. 29 June 1729. His wid. d. Jan. foll.

GEORGE, Lynn, came in the Truelove, late in 1635, aged 31, freem. 2 May 1638, may be the man wh. bec. insane, there, 1640, as Winthrop II. 21 tells; yet he prob. was in short time restor. for in Nov. 1663, his neighb. Rootens made him one of the overseers of his will; and d. 28 Dec. 1667. GEORGE, Scarborough, submit. to Mass. jurisdict. July 1658, had been there from 1636, and was liv. 1681. GREGORY, Watertown, an orig. propr. freem. 14 May 1634, constable 1642, by w. Achsa, says Bond, had Samuel, b. Apr. 1632, d. soon; and ano. s. 11 Mar. 1643, to wh. Bond, 601, gives a name, Seabred, that must be read wrong, in my opin. at least it is wrong as s. of Gregory, if right of Thomas. He soon aft. sold his lds. and is found at Stamford to d. 24 Sept. 1657. His w. d. 18 Aug. 1667, and no heir appear. to take the little prop. the Court allow. it to John Waterbury and his w.

ISAAC, Scituate, as Deane thot. came from Concord a. 1686, had Isaac, bapt. 1693; Mary, 1696; Jonathan, 1698; and David, 1700. JAMES, Concord, m. 1641, Isabel, or Elizabeth Tompkins, had, says Shattuck, sev. ch. of wh. by my inq. I kn. only Samuel, b. 21 June 1656; Thomas, 12 July 1659, d. in few mos. and he perhaps rem. to Marlborough bef. 1675, and may have been by the Ind. hostil, driv. in to Cambridge, there by w.

Whence he came, wh. was his f. or when he d. is unkn. but he had been a serv. of John [[261]] Pynchon. JAMES, New Haven, a propr. 1685, of wh. no more is heard. JAMES, Reading, may have been that surveyor, much employ. in 1671 and 2, d. at R. 1703. * JAMES, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 24 Oct. 1674; perhaps is the same wh. by w. Rebecca had Samuel, 5 Dec. 1687; Abigail, 2 Aug; 1690; Ann, 13 Nov. 1692; Sarah, 19 May 1695; William, 19 June 1696; Mercy, 13 Nov. 1700; and Mary, 15 July 1702; and prob. also, was rep. 1689, 93 and 4.

JOHN, Lynn, came prob. in the fleet with Winthrop desir. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was sw. 18 May foll. Lewis tells, that he was from Haverhill, Co. Suffk. and that his w. and ch. d. on the passage. JOHN, Windsor 1640, but is not kn. to have ever been at Dorchester, was in esteem 1644, and no later is any ment. found, so that he may have had w. and ch. and rem. to some uncert. place. A Rhoda T. at W. 1659, had seat in the meeting ho. and may be thot. his wid. or ch. An Amos T. d. at Windsor, 1644; and Hannah d. there 1650, wh. may have been his ch. or possib. of Stephen. JOHN, Weymouth, in his will of 6 Jan. pro. 22 May 1668, names w. Rebecca, d. Rebecca, w. I suppose, of Richard Gurney, and s. John wh. is made excor. JOHN, Cambridge 1644, freem. 1651, by w. Catharine had Joseph, bapt. at C. H. C. 1669; d. 6 Sept. 1683, fill. the office of butler and was a faithf. serv. of H. C. a. 40 yrs. says the gr.-stone. JOHN, Damariscove 1651, by Sullivan, 287, is found there in 1665. JOHN, Weymouth, prob. s. of John of the same, by w. Phebe, I presume d. of the wid. Ann Rockwood, had Mary, b. 18 May 1660; John, 10 Apr. 1666; and perhaps rem. to Braintree. JOHN, Ipswich, a soldier, k. in the gr. battle with Philip, 19 Dec. 1675.

Rebecca had John, b. 22 Nov. 1674; William, 21 May 1676; and Elizabeth 1680; but I discov. nothing more. JOHN, Hampton, took the o. of alleg. 25 Apr. 1678; and later in the same yr. ano. JOHN of Hampton was equal. patriot. One of the two, I suppose, by w. Deborah had Mary, b. 3 May 1687. JOHN, Hadley, m. 12 Dec. 1666, Mary, d. of the first Thomas Selden, sw. alleg. 8 Feb. 1679, as did John of Northampton on the same day and this latter better kept his word in becom. freem. 1683.

The wid. liv. with s. John at Norwalk 1724.

PHILIP, freem. of Mass. 18 May 1642 may have been br. of Richard, wh. in the list stands next bef. him, but I am not able to say more, than that he was of ano. ch. than that of Boston. RICHARD, Boston, br. perhaps of the preced. join. our ch. 1 Jan. 1642, then "a single man and a tailor," was adm. freem. 18 May foll. by w. Mary had John, b. 2, bapt. 6 Feb. 1647; d. 1673.

RICHARD, Charlestown, by w.

SAMUEL, Ipswich 1648, had been ment. 1638, but never with indicat. of a fam. No w. or ch. is heard of, when at the age of 81 his will was pro. 29 June 1695, in wh. his ho. and ld. are devis. to Samuel Treadwell, perhaps a cous. as he calls Thomas, and Nathaniel Treadwell, Thomas, and Seaborn Wilson, Mary Gains, Esther Hovey, and Martha Cross. SAMUEL, Windsor, had, as Parsons in Geneal, Reg. V. 365, quotes rec. d. Martha, wh. at the age of 20, m. 30 Oct. 1679, Josiah Ellsworth. But his is a sad mistake of Taylor for Gaylord. SAMUEL, Springfield, wh. sw. alleg. there 31 Dec. 1678, or next day, maybe s. of Stephen of Windsor, was a blacksmith at Westfield, by w. Mary had a ch. b. 3 May 1672, d. in few days; Mary, 14 Dec. 1673, d. young; Mary, again, 1675, d. young; Samuel, 1677, d. young; a s. 30 Sept. 1679, d. in few wks.; Joseph, 1 May 1681, d. young; Elizabeth 10 Mar. 1683, d. soon; Elizabeth again, 27 July 1684; [[264]] Mary, again, 3 Mar. 1687; Sarah, 8 Oct. 1689; Hannah, 25 Aug. 1692; and Joseph, again, 4 Mar. 1694; beside a. d. Mercy, in his will of 1723, nam. as dec. leav. ch. Mercy and Mabel Buck. This list varies slightly from that in Geneal. Reg. VI. 266, but seems to me of authori. His will names only s. Joseph, ds. Mary Bush, Elizabeth Phelps, and Hannah Loomis, beside that Mercy, and Sarah, wh. had m. one of the innumer. tribe of Williams, was dec. leav. only ch. Sarah. SAMUEL, Wethersfield, s. of William of the same, by w.

SEABRED, Reading, s. of Thomas of Watertown, m. 22 Nov. 1671, Mary, d. of Richard Harrington, was freem. 1677, against wh. I hardly suppose that Farmer design. any imput. when he calls him Sinbred. STEPHEN, Windsor, perhaps br. of the first John of the same, m. 1 Nov. 1642, Sarah Hosford, d. of Rev. William, had Stephen, b. 11 Mar. 1644; Samuel, 8 Oct. 1647; and by sec. w. m. 25 Oct. 1649, Elizabeth Newell, had John, 22 Mar. 1652; Thomas, 5 Oct. 1655; Abigail, 19 Mar. 1657; Mary, 18 June 1661; Mindwell, 5 Nov. 1663; and Nathaniel, 24 May 1668, d. at 14 yrs.; was in the list of freem. Oct. 1669. He d. 1 Sept. 1668, and his wid. d. 5 Aug. foll. acc. one rep. but Stiles says, 14 Dec. 1717. He call. hims. 66 yrs. old in 1684. STEPHEN, Hadley, m. at Hartford, Sarah, d. of John White, had only ch. Stephen, and d. 7 Sept. 1665. His wid. m. 15 Oct. 1666, Barnabas Hindsdale, wh. was k. by the Ind. 18 Sept. 1675; and she had third h. Feb. 1679, Walter Hickson. He may have been s. of John of Hartford, but whence he came, is uncert. STEPHEN, Boston, by w. Hannah had Hannah, b. 2 July 1668. STEPHEN, Suffield, s. of the first Stephen, m. 8 Nov. 1676, Joanna Porter of Farmington, prob. d. of Thomas, had Sarah, b. 16 July 1679; Joanna, 28 Mar. 1682; rem. to Windsor, had there Stephen, 9 May 1685; Stephen, again, 8 May 1688; William, 14 Mar. 1689; and perhaps others, and d. 3 Aug. 1707. THOMAS, Watertown, 1642, by w. Elizabeth had Seabred, b. 11 Mar. 1643; rem. to reading, and d. 1690. THOMAS, Norwalk 1666, m. 14 Feb. 1668, Rebecca, d. of Edward Ketchum, had Thomas, b. 26 Nov. 1668; Deborah, June 1671; and prob. others, for the name was long cont. in that town, where he was freem. 1670, but he rem. to Danbury, as one of the early sett. THOMAS, [[265]] Suffield, perhaps s. of the first Stephen, m. 15 June 1678, Abigail, d. of Hugh Roe, had Elizabeth b. 24 July 1679, Abigail, 6 Sept. 1681; Nathaniel, 24 Aug. 1684, d. next yr.; Mabel, 1 Dec. 1685.

The f. of his first w. in leav. her a legacy by his will, declar. that "Thomas Taylor shall have nothing to do with it," and that was caus. by his ill conduct. THOMAS, Springfield, s. of Jonathan of the same, m. 29 Dec. 1687, Mary, d. of John Petty, had Hannah, b. 18 Aug. 1690; and d. at Springfield Apr. 1691. WILLIAM, Lynn 1642. WILLIAM, Wethersfield, by w. Mary had Samuel, b. 1647, perhaps d. soon; John, 1649; Sarah; ano. Samuel; Mary, 1654; William, 1659; Margaret, 1663; Jonathan, 1666; and the seven ch. were liv. 1720. WILLIAM, New London, kn. there, says Caulkins, only 1650 to 3, perhaps was not the freem. 1669 of Wethersfield. WILLIAM, Concord, m. Mary Meriam, perhaps d. of Joseph, had John, b. 19 Oct. 1653; Samuel, 3 July 1655, d. in few ds.; Abraham, 14 Nov. 1656; Isaac, 1659; Jacob, 8 May, 1662; Joseph, 1665; and Mary; and Shattuck says, he d. 6 Dec. 1696. WILLIAM, Boston, merch. by w. Rebecca had Elizabeth b. 17 May 1667;' and Thomas, 18 Feb. 1674; was much disting. for active enterpr. but fell into melancholy, and d. by his own hd. 12 July 1682. See Russell's Diary in Geneal. Reg. VII. 53 and Bradstreet's in I b. VIII. 332 or IX. 50. WILLIAM, Scituate, br. of Isaac of the same, and elder, as Deane thot. had Lydia, b. 1688; Elizabeth 1692; and Mary, 1696. Of his name I see 20 gr. at Yale, and 15 at Harv. TEAD, TEED, or TED, JOHN, Charlestown 1637, emb. 12 May of that yr. at Yarmouth, aged 19, as serv. of Samuel Greenfield of Norwich, but perhaps was not desir. by his master of acomp.him, aft. reach. this side of the ocean, if, as seems prob. he be the person call. Todd, in Frothingham, p. 88, may have rem. aft. 1640 to Woburn,there was one of the true-spirited petnrs. to the Gen. Ct. 30 Aug. 1653 in fav. of liberty of proph. had w. Margaret, wh. d. 1651, and he d. 24 Apr. 1657. By his will made 15 days bef. we find he had sec. w. Alice, and ds. Mary, and Elizabeth beside gr.ch. Benjamin, Hannah, and ano. d. of one Savil; and John and Samuel Savil, of ano. Thomas Fuller, and John Kendall, also a s. of his own name. See Tidd. Yet one of this name was propound. for freem. in 1664, tho. no more heard of. See 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 101, and Geneal, Reg. XIV. 328. JOSHUA, Charlestown 1637, perhaps br. of the preced. was adm. of the ch. 10 Mar. 1639, and freem. 22 May foll. and his w. Sarah join. the ch. 9 Sept. aft. By the town rec. they had John, b. 15 June 1641; and Joseph, 15 Dec. 1643. In the ch. bapt. wh. suffer. a sad blank for many yrs. aft. 20 Sept. 1642, the name of no [[266]] ch. but the first would be look. for, and that is not seen, so that it may be the ch. d. soon. He was, in 1648, agent for Richard Young, wh. had in London, contrib. to our com. stock, and obt. for him his share of 100 acres of ld. selectman 1660 and 8, lieut. in 1678, on 15 Sept. of wh. yr. he d. aged 71. Oft. it was writ. Tydd, and in mod. days is altogether Tidd. TEAKE, HENRY, is the misprint in Geneal. Reg. VII. 226, for Feake, Henry, of Lynn. TEFFE. See Tiffe. TELL, WILLIAM, Malden, freem. 1690, tho, in my opin. the name is design. for Teal, wh. by w. Mary had Abigail, b. 1 Jan.1686; Benjamin, 2 Nov. 1689; Elizabeth 22 June 1696; Oliver, 19 July 1699; and Rachel, 1 Aug. 1703. TEMPLAR, TEMPLE or TEMPLER, ABRAHAM, Salem 1637, had Abraham. ABRAHAM, Concord, s. perhaps of the preced. m. 1673, Deborah Hadlock, had Richard, Abigail, Mary, and Joseph; had perhaps rem. to Charlestown, there had a d. b. 1686; but certaiN. was at Concord freem. 1690. ISAAC, Concord, s. of Richard, freem. 1690. JOHN, Boston, freem. 1671, was liv. 1695. RICHARD, Yarmouth, there is in the list of those able to bear arms, 1643, by w. Hannah, d. of Richard Pritchard, had Hannah, b. 5 Jan. 1643; Samuel, 22 Jan. 1648; Esther, bur. 13 Sept. 1649; perhaps James; Deborah, d. 5 Aug. 1657; Deborah, again, bapt. 4 Oct. 1657; beside Richard, 15 Oct. 1656, bapt. 5 July 1663;' but rem. with f. and mo. of his w. to Charlestown, 1660. From ascert. that his wid. m. 10 Apr. 1674, Nathaniel Morton, Secr. of Plymouth Col. I was led to correct the erroneous inference, authorized by Charlestown rec. that the was recent. d. in Mar. 1678, as his ho. is ment. but not the person. She outliv. the dignitary, and d. 26 Dec. 1690, aged 66. In the will of Pritchard, 22 Jan. 1669 are ment. Hannah, w. of R. T. made extrix. and the three ch.

RICHARD, Salem 1644, Charlestown, 1646, there by w. Joanna had Abigail, b. 15 July 1647; Richard, 1654; rem. to concord, had Isaac, 19 June 1657, was freem. 1672. RICHARD, Concord, s. of the preced. freem. 1690, by w. Sarah had Richard, b. 1692; and Joseph, 1694; and d. 16 Feb. 1698 or 9. RICHARD, Reading, s. of Robert, m. Deborah, d. of the sec. Thomas Parker of the same, had Josiah, b. 16 Mar. 1695; Thomas, 1 Nov. 1696, d. young; Jonathan, 19 Feb. 1699; Phebe; John, 19 Oct. 1704; Elizabeth 17 Dec. 1706; Jabez, 2 July 1709; Ruth, 1712; Thomas, again, 2 May, 1714; and Ebenezer, 7 May 1716; and d. 28 Nov. 1737, in 70th yr. as gr.stone tells. ROBERT, Saco bef. 1670, perhaps, sev. yrs. [[267]] had Richard, b. a. 1668, and prob. other ch. wh. with their mo. it is thot. on destruct. of the town in 1676, when he was k. by the Ind. were forced to go to Boston for refuge. THOMAS, an Eng. knight and baronet, came to Boston, with favor of appoint. by Cromwell to be Gov. of Acadia, in 1657, assoc. with Col. Crowne, as grantee of Nova Scotia, spent many yrs this side of the water, speculat. in the lds. far and near, join the ch. of Increase Mather in June 1670, yet was careful to hold good terms with Charles II. (wh. renew, his office of Gov.) with wh. in former yrs. he interpos. his kind offices to befriend N. E. One mark of this I copied in the State Paper office at London, July 1842, being his letter to Secr. Morrice from Boston, Aug. 1661, about the regicides, Whalley and Goffe, with a very curious one from Rev. John Davenport, on the same subject, addressed to Temple. The clerg. beats the courtier on that topic; but allowance is to be made for the cause, inasmuch as Temple was sincere, we may well suppose, and be more sure that Davenport was not. He thought a little equivocation justifiable for the glory of God,and safety of the prescribed. A pleasant anecdote is relat. by Hutchinson of T.'s persuad. the king, that the pine tree on the coin struck in Boston, was the royal oak that saved his majesty. I doubt not, this is as near the truth as tradit. oft. reaches; perhaps it was uttered by the traveller to our friend the Earl of Manchaster, or even to the Earl of Clarendon, whose well-tried loyalty quarrelled not with discretion; and in the way of trifling not uncommon in that court, may possib. tho. I think not, have got up to the throne. If the merry monarch had been ill-natured eno. to ask what the date, 1652, meant. Sr. Thomas must have had awkward sensations. He d. in London, 27 Mar. 1674, had left at B. a will of 14 Oct. 1671, pro. 28 July 1674, but all the excors. Gov. Leverett capt. Lake, capt. Hull, and John Richards, immediat. renounced the office, prob. thro. fear that the debts would much exceed the means. Ano. will had been pro. the very day bef. at the Prerog. Ct. Doctor's Commons, made 27 Mar. of that yr. so that the first, wh. may be found in our Prob. Vol. VI. 59, is supersed. by this if I. 327. TENCH, EDWARD, New Haven 1643. WILLIAM, Plymouth, came in the Fortune 1621, alone, as count. in the allot. of lds. and, as is said, d. bef. 1638. As his name does not appear in the div. of cattle. 1627, he may well be suppos. to have d. so much earlier, unless a rem. to ano. place, can be plausib. assert. See Morton's Mem. and Young's Chron. TENNEY or TENNY, DANIEL. Bradford, m. 21 July 1680, Elizabeth Stickney, perhaps d. of William. DANIEL, Rowley, youngest s. of Thomas, by w.

He or his s. of the same name, prob. the latter, was made ens. by the Gen. Ct. 1677. * WILLIAM, Rowley 1643, perhaps br. of the preced. by w.

Of this name there had been, as Farmer in Ms. noted, four gr. at Harv. two at Yale, and ten at other N. E. coll. in 1834. TEREBERRY, HENRY, is a nickname, to be found on the Boston rec. of births of Tewksbury. See that. TERHAM or TURHAM, THOMAS, Guilford 1685, m. Mary, wid. of Henry Wise, and d. 1696, leav. wid.

ROGER, Milford 1639, if Barber, Coll. 231, be correct, is count. there among free. 1669; and at the same time John, perhaps his br. was propound. for freem. He m. the d. of the first Thomas Ufford. His d. Abigail m. William Tyler. Ano. Roger must be seen in Cothren's Ancient Woodbury, if he is correct. He was first of Stratford, but a signer of the fundam. articles for settlem. of W. 14 Feb. 1673, and d. 17 Apr. 1722, and his wid. Sarah, d. 13 Apr. 1728. The ch. were Abigail, bapt.

TERRY, EPHRAIM, Springfield, s. of the first Samuel, m. 25 July 1695, Hannah, d. of James Eggleston of Windsor. JOHN, Windsor, may be that one wh. came in the Abigail, 1635, aged 32, from London, fellow passeng. with John Winthrop perhaps was first of Dorchester, and may have been br. of Stephen, is found among the freem. and prob. had been for some yrs. in 1669, unless this freem. may rather seem to be JOHN, Windsor, s. of Stephen, wh. m. 27 Nov. 1662, Elizabeth d. of William Wadsworth, had Elizabeth b. 16 Dec. 1663; or as ano. says 1664; Stephen, 6 Oct. 1666; Sarah, 16 Nov. 1668; John 22 Mar. 1670; Rebecca, 7 Jan. 1672, d. young; Mary, 19 July 1673; Solomon, 29 Mar. 1675; and Rebecca, again, 27 Feb. 1677, d. young. RICHARD, Southold, L. I. 1662, came at the age of 17, in the James, 1635, from London, with Thomas [[269]] and Robert, prob. his elder brs. and was accept. as freem. of Conn. in 1662. ROBERT, was aged 25, when he emb. at London, 1635, in the James, with Thomas, prob. elder, and Richard, younger, brs. but no more is found of this name. SAMUEL, Springfield, said to be brought in 1650, by Pynchon, from Barnett 11 ms. from London, where he was b. Apr. 1632, was resid. as Dr. Sprague thinks a. 1654, m. 3 Jan. 1660, Ann Lobdell, perhaps sis. of Simon, had Samuel, b. 18 July 1661; Ephraim, 26 Aug. 1663, d. young; Thomas, 6 Mar. 1665; Mary, July 1667; Rebecca, 25 July 1669, d. soon; Ephraim, again, 3 Feb. 1672; Rebecca, again, 5 Dec. 1673; Elizabeth 25 Mar. 1677, d. very soon; and Ann; and on the last day of 1678 or first of 1679, he, and Samuel, jr. his s. took o. of alleg. m. 19 Nov. 1690, sec. w.

SAMUEL, Enfield, s. of the preced. m. 17 May 1682, Hannah, sis. of Isaac Morgan, I think, and said to have been the first m. in that sett. bef. it was made a town by separat. from Springfield, had Hannah, b. 18 Nov. 1684; Samuel, 26 Mar. 1690; Rebecca, 15 Nov. 1692; Ebenezer, 31 Mar. 1696; and Benjamin, 13 Oct. 1698; and his w. d. 17 Jan. 1697. By sec. w. m. 4 Jan.1699, Martha, wid. of Benjamin Crane, whose surname, as Goodwin has it, Credan, looks very strange, he had Ephraim, b. 24 Oct. 1701; Jacob, 20 Feb. 1704; Martha, perhaps 18 Feb. 1706, d. next mo.

Who his w. was, or whether be brot. her form Eng. is not ascert. but of ch. Mary was b. at D. 31 Dec. 1635; John, m. 6 Mar. 1638 at W. Elizabeth 43, bapt. 9 Jan. 1642; and Abigail, 21, bapt. 27 Sept. 1646. Mary m. 8 Dec. 1659, Richard Goodman; and Elizabeth m. 10 Jan. 1666, Philip Russell of Hadley as his sec. w. and with two of her four ch. was k. by the Ind. Sept. 1677; Abigail m. 9 May 1667, as his sec. w. lieut. Joseph Kellogg, and was liv. in 1715. THOMAS, Southold, came 1635, aged 28, with Richard, and Robert, prob. his younger brs. in the James from London; they all, perhaps, contin. in Mass. some yrs. tho. the town is not kn. at least we see, in Dec. 1638, that the leader of the three was, by the Gen. Ct. order. to appear at next Ct. See Rec. I. 248. To Long Isl. they went prob. by 1646, and Thomas was accept. as freem. of Conn. 1662. THOMAS, [[270]] Springfield, s. of the first Samuel, m. 21 Apr. 1687, Mary Cooley. One of this name at Harv. and seven at Yale, had been gr. in 1852. TETHERLY, GABRIEL, and WILLIAM are seen in Maine a. 1680, perhaps trans. But of William we kn. that he was of Biddeford in Co. Devon, and at Boston, 1664, 5, 6, and 8. TEW, * RICHARD, styled s. and heir of Henry, Portsmouth, R. I. 1640; Newport 1654, on the list of freem. 1655, was rep. and assist. is one of the grantees in the royal chart. 1663, had m. bef. com. from Eng. Mary, d. of William Clark, of Hardwick Priors, Co. Warwick, and had a d. b. 4 June 1640, on his voyage, and therefore nam. Seaborn; and Elnathan, 15 Oct. 1644; perhaps others; Seaborn m. 5 Jan. 1658, Samuel Billings; Elnathan m. 3 Nov. 1664, Thomas Harris; and Mary, prob. ano. d. m. 30 Dec. 1670, Andrew Harris. TEWKSBURY, TEWXBERRY, TUKSBERY, or TUXBURY, HENRY, Newbury, rem. to Boston m. 10 Nov. 1659, Martha, wid. of William Harvey of B. had Elizabeth b. 22 Aug; foll.; Hannah, 1 Sept. 1662; Henry, 15 Dec. 1664; Naomi, 18 Jan. 1667; and Ruth, 10 Mar. 1669; took o. of alleg. 13 May 1669, and again hav. rem. to Amesbury, was call. to the same, 20 Dec. 1677; grew to be freem. 1680. * THOMAS, Manchester 1686, was rep. 1692. THACHER, or THATCHER, * ANTHONY, Marblehead, came from Salisbury in Co. Wilts, where he had serv. occasion. as curate for Peter Thacher 1631 and 4, the rector of St. Edmunds in that city, wh. prob. was his br. He had been a non-conformist, liv. in Holland more than 20 yrs. bef. and emb. on 6 Apr. 1635 at Southampton in the James (tho. we might by Hubbard, 200, be misled to think he came in the Angel Gabriel, cast away, 15 Aug.) and arr. at Boston 3 June, in the ship's clearance call. a tayler for decept. not of the inferiors at the custom ho. wh. certif. that the total num. of men, youths, and boys, was 53, when we are sure there were many more perhaps, a hundred and fifty percent. He brot. a sec. w. and four ch. William, b. of the first w. as may have been some of the rest, Mary, Edith, and Peter, a babe, and prob. was accomp. by the cous. Rev. Joseph Avery, with w. and six ch. and his neph. Thomas, afterwards first min. of the third or O. S. ch. in Boston, beside a serv. Peter Higden; but of all these, only the names of Higden and of Anthony P. appear in that list of 53. Such was the mode of evasion of the petty tyranny of the Lords of the Council. The ship was of 300 tons, and might well have brot. 150 passeng. when so many were eager to come, yet the names of 53 alone are giv. Most of these went to Ipswich, and a large part of them sett. the same and foll. yr. at Newbury; but Thacher with his friend Avery, wh. was invit. to [[271]] preach at Marblehead, with all their respect. ch. and fam. exc. his neph. Thomas, then 15 yrs. old, wh. prefer. ld. travel, emb. in a pinnace of Isaac Allerton to return from I. to M. on 15 Aug. 1635, and next day were wreck. on a rock, or rather ledge off Cape Ann. Of 23 persons in that little bark, all but Thacher and his w. were drown. He and she were cast on the barren islet, ever since call Thacher's woe, as the outer rock, gain. the name of Avery's fall. Slight acco. of this sad occur. is in Magn. II. cap. 2, but fuller in Winthrop I. 165, and the personal relat. of the whole by the suffer. is in Young's Chron. of Mass. 483, and I can recommend no more strik. narrative in our early hist. He was by the Ct. made admor. of Joseph Avery, as Col. Rec. I. 154, shows. Our Gen. Ct. bestow a good sum in money on the surv. suffer. as in Rec. I. 1557 appears, and afterwards, Ib. 191, made a gr. of that diastrous isl. for an inherit. wh. was not, I imagine, worth tak. into possess. He preach. perhaps, short time at Marblehead, where he had prob. Judah; John, b. 17 Mar. 1639; but went for perman. settlem. bef. 1643, to Yarmouth, and had Bethia, wh. m. Jabez Howland; and Rodolphus in my conject. For a season he was of Marshfield, rep. for Y. 1643-7. He had at Salisbury in O. E. Benjamin, b. 13, bapt. 27 Apr. 1634, but this ch. perhaps d. soon; as did his mo. Mary if a fam. mem. be correct, wh. says that his sec. w. tak. a few wks. bef. sail. was Elizabeth Jones; and he d. at Y. where his inv. is dat. 22 Aug. 1667, if Alden's Epit. I. 120 may be correct. aged 80. * John, Yarmouth, youngest s. of the preced. m. 6 Nov. 1664, Rebecca, d. of the first Josiah Winslow, and niece of the first Gov. w. had Peter, b. 26 Apr. as one report is, or by ano. 20 May 1665; Josiah, 26 Apr. 1667, both bapt. 26 Apr. 1668; Rebecca, 1, bapt. 6 June 1669; Bethia, 10, bapt. 16 July 1671; John, 28 Jan. bapt. 14 Feb. 1675; Elizabeth 19 June, bapt. 22 July 1677; Hannah, 19, bapt. 24 Aug. 1679, d. at ten yrs.; and Mary, 3 Aug. bapt. 24 Sept. 1682, d. young. His w. d. 15 July foll. and many lamentable verses he wrote on her. By sec. w. m. 11 Jan. 1684, Lydia, d. of John Corham, he had Lydia, 11, bapt. 22 Feb. 1685; Mary, again, 5 Feb. bapt. 6 Mar. 1687; Desire, 24 Dec. 1688, bapt. 27 Jan. foll.; Hannah, 9, bapt. 12 Oct. 1690; Mercy, 23 July 1692, d. next mo.; Judah, 20, bapt. 27 Aug. 1693; Mercy, again, 28 Dec. 1695, bapt;. next day, d. at 8 mos.; Ann, 7 May, bapt. 27 June 1697; Joseph, 11, bapt. 16 July 1699; Benjamin, 25 June, bapt. 3 Aug. 1701; Mercy, again, 7 Feb. bapt. same day 1703; and Thomas, 2 Apr. bapt. 20 May 1705, as the town rec. has it, tho. I have seen a fam. MS. that makes the yr. 1711, wh. is prob. erron. Forty-one yrs. would seem a suffic. period for hav. ch. He was rep. 1668 and twelve yrs. foll. Assist. many yrs. aft. and a counsel. under new chart, d. 8 May 1713. Fourteen of his twenty ch. m. for the [[272]] blessing of the cape. JUDAH, Yarmouth, s. prob. eldest, of Anthony, on our side of the water, m. Mary, d. of Rev. Thomas Thornton, and of descend. this report is giv. Elizabeth b.

PETER, Yarmouth 1678, may have been s. of that John, b. aft. his f.'s shipwreck, and so call. in mem. of that babe lost in the disaster of 1635. Yet I marvel, that some earlier writer was not enabled to foll. up the geneal. PETER, Milton, youngest s. of Rev. Thomas, freem. 1678, at the same time with his friend, the first Ch. just. Sewal, accomp. ano. classmate, Samuel Danforth, to Europe, and on his d. near the end of 1676, came back soon; m. 21 Nov. 1677, Theodora, d. of Rev. John Oxenbridge of the first ch. wh. had eight yrs. bef. been in fierce enmity with the third ch. founded for his f. and so. I hope, some help was giv. to the quiet that began, soon aft. the d. of Gov. Bellingham, to reign thro. the colony so long disturb. He was ord. first min. of M. 1681, had Theodora; Bathsheba; Oxenbridge, b. 17 May 1681, H. C. 1698; Elizabeth; Mary; Peter, 6 Oct. 1688, H. C. 1706, min. of Middleborough; John, d. young; Thomas, 1693, d. at 28 yrs. and John, again. His ord. at M. was, if we obey the auth. of Farmer, in Sept. 1681. There his w. d. 18 Nov. 1697, and he m. next Susanna, wid of Rev. John Bailey, wh. d. 4 Sept. 1724 in her 59th yr. and he m. Elizabeth wid. of the first Joshua Gee, and d.

Joshua Gee at 3d w. when Gee was the surv. by many yrs. and his mo.-in-law Elizabeth d. of Judah Thacher bec. third w. of Peter T. His preach. a Serm. that Eliot calls beautif. on the d. of G.'s w. but that was only a single yr. bef. his own. RODOLPHUS, or RALPH, Duxbury, s. of Thomas, m. 1 Jan. 1670, Ruth, d. of George Partridge of the same, had Thomas, b. 9 Oct. foll.

But his benevo. carr. him to Chilmark on Martha's vineyard, where he preach. many yrs. and in June 1711 gave to his s. "Rodolphus, alias Ralph" est. of 60 acres. See Mather's Hecatompolis, in Mag.

Hannah, m. 13 Sept. 1664, wh. d. 24 May 1670; s. Samuel and his first ch. with sev. other person, wh. I judge to be not relat. but only friends. SAMUEL, Watertown, s. of the preced. at Lynn m. 11 Apr. 1676, Mary Farnsworth, prob. d. of Mathias, had Mary, b. 1 Aug. 1681, d. at 9 mos.

Of the Watertown fam. descend. all retain the old spell. as if deriving their name from the early occupat. of a thatcher, wh. seems very prob. THOMAS, Weymouth, s. of Rev. Peter, rector of St. Edmunds, Salisbury, in Co. Wilts, b. 1 May 1620, bef. his f. was induct. (but the fam. orign was prob. Co. Somerset) came with his uncle Anthony in the James from Southampton, arr. at Boston 4 June 1635, went to Ipswich with his uncle and other friends, but avoid the peril of their return in Aug. of the same, yr. in wh. all but Anthonly and his w. were lost, was put under the direct. of Rev. Charles Chauncey of Scituate, wh. prepared him for his profess. with great dilig. He m. 11 May 1643, Elizabeth youngest d. of Rev. Ralph Partridge of Duxbury, and was ord. min. at W. (as success. of Samuel Newman, wh. rem. with any of his flock to Rehoboth) 2 Jan.1645, not 1664, as in Gen. Reg. VIII. 183 the figures read, was freem. 1645, when the prefix of Mr. is strange. omit. His good sense unit. with a general acquaint. in science of that day acquir. for him great reput. as a physician, and to complete his honors, Mather wh. always loves an exaggera. makes him compose a Hebrew Lexicon, so compress. "that within one sheet of paper, he had every considerable word of the language." The ch. were Thomas, Ralph; alias Rodolphus; Peter, b. at Salem, (we kn. not by wh. accid. the mo. was there) 18, bapt. 20 July 1651, H. C. 1671; Patience; and Elizabeth wh. m. Nathaniel Davenport, the brave capt. k. in the gr. Narraganset battle, 19 Dec. 1675, and next. m. 1677, Samuel Davis. His w. d. 2 June 1664, soon aft. wh. he m. Margaret, wid. of Jacob Sheaffe, d. of Henry Webb, and rem. to Boston, join. the first ch. 4 Aug. 1667, and was desir. to be min. of a new society there, since call. the O. S. ch. growing out of the dissatisf. at the descept. artifices for bring. of Davenport from New haven to succeed Wilson. In Oct. 1669, to save the feelings of his fellow-worship. he took dismiss. to the ch. at Charlestown, and on 16 Feb. foll. was install, over the new ch. of B. and was held in high esteem. In 1674, he with Increase Mather, was add. to former licensers of the press; and he d. 15 Oct. 1678, as on p. 152 of the Magn. III. is told, tho. on the next p. where he gives as a curiosity some elegiac [[274]] strains in Latin and Greek by an Ind. youth nam. Eleazer, then student in the senior class at Harv. the Eccles. Histor. with his aptitude for error, makes it 18 Oct. Still his life is one of the best in the vol. tho. Eliot has judiciously curtail. it by four fifths. His wid. d. 23 or 4 Feb. 1694, as town rec. and Sewall's Diary tell. Patience m. William Kemp. THOMAS, Boston, merch. eldest s. of the preced. m.

His name is oft. repeat. on acco. of the extraord. circumst. of his being brot. from the pulpit at W. to the new North ch. in Boston, as collea. with Rev. John Webb, wh. had been gr. at Harv. 12 yrs. later. How long aft. 1696 he was ord. at W. or what were the concomitants of his lot there are unkn. That he must have been highly regard. at W. and not thro. the partiality of a few hearers, wh. rememb. the powers of his uncle half a century bef. is a resonab. presumpt. and why many should have desir. him is easier to conject. than the reason for the bitter and most indecent repugnance to his installat. that any of the petty squabbles a. the introd. of a min. in any parish of N. E. have produced. Four, five, or six publicat. on the two sides, may be preserv. by the curious for this eventful yr. 1720, on 28 Jan. in wh. an ordain. council was ablig. to go secret. to the house of worship in Boston; where the disord. vulgarity, as tradit. relates, was too bad to be entrusted even to printing. He d. 26 Feb. 1739. Of this name 19 had in 1854, ben gr. at Harv. and 4 at Yale. THARPE, NATHANIEL, New Haven, perhaps s. of William, was punish. 1664, for steal. from an Ind. contin. propr. 1685.

Elizabeth had Huldah, b. 22 May 1682; Grace, 20 Dec. 1684; Deborah, 4 Nov. 1687; and Jonathan, 8 Sept. 1690. JOSIAH, Mendon, br. of the preced. by w.

NATHANIEL, Taunton, [[277]] of wh. with confid. no more is kn. but that he had Joanna, b. 13 Dec. 1665, wh. m. 7 Jan. 1690, John Crossman, was a propr. 1668. But other ch. prob. he had, for in the list of ms. only few yrs. bef. and aft. appear the names of Mary, twice, Abigail, Elizabeth and William, all of wh. may not be deriv. from Braintree. NATHANIEL, Boston, s. prob. of Richard the first, was freem. 1690, and d. 28 Mar. 1728; by w. Deborah, had Nathaniel, b. 28 Aug. 1671, prob. d. young; Nathaniel, again, 11 July 1681; Zechariah, 29 May 1683; Cornelius, 14 Nov. 1684; John, 2 Apr. 1687, d. soon; John, again, 2 July 1688; Ebenezer, 1 Feb. 1690, H. C. 1708; and Deborah, 14 Oct. 1691. From his s. Cornelius, through a gr.-gr.s. Ebenezer, H. C. 1753, min. of Hampton, came the late Rev. Nathaniel of Lancaster, H. C. 1789, f. of promin, men of this generat. NATHANIEL, Braintree, s. of Richard the sec. m. 27 May 1679, Hannah, eldest d. of the sec. John Hayden of the same, had Nathaniel; Richard; Hannah, b. 17 Feb. 1686; Zechariah, 16 Mar. 1687; Ruth, 17 July 1689; Dorothy; Lydia; and Daniel; was a housewright, of great esteem, and d. 28 Mar. 1726. He was progenit. of Col. Sylvanus, the disting. engineer of our day, former command. of the national milit. sch. at West Point. RICHARD, Boston, 1640, brot, from Eng. ch. Richard, Deborah, Sarah, and perhaps more, as prob. Cornelius, Nathaniel and Zechariah. Sarah m. 20 July 1651, Samuel Davis, rem. to Braintree, and had d. 27 Aug. 1696. In 36 Pages of Thayer's fam. Geneal. are compris. many of the progeny of this Richard alone. RICHARD, Braintree, s. of the preced. brot. from Eng. by his f. m. 24 Dec. 1651, Dorothy Pray, had Dorothy, b. 30 Aug. 1653; Richard, 31 Aug. 1655; Nathaniel, 1 Jan. 1658; and perhaps had Zechariah, and prob. ds. Jael, and Abigail, and Cornelius, 18 Sept. 1670; went home on business, and came back 1679, as is told, and d. 4 Dec. 1705. His wid. d. the next week aft. He made complaint in Eng. against our Col. to wh. the answ. in Remonstrance of Braintree is one of the most curious papers in our annals. It may be read in 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. V. 104. RICHARD, Braintree, s. of the preced. prob. serv. in Philip's war, of Johnson's comp. 1675, m. 16 July 1679, Rebecca Mycall, d. of James, had Rebecca, b. 16 Aug. 1680; Benjamin, 6 Oct. 1683; Richard, 26 Jan. 1685; John, 12 Jan. 1688; Mary, Feb. 1689; James, 16 Nov. 1691; Deborah, bapt. 11 Apr. 1697; Ann, 14 Nov. 1697; Gideon, b. 26 July 1700; and Obadiah, 1 May 1703; and d. 11 Sept. 1729.

SAMUEL, Mendon, s. of Ferdinando, by w. Mary had Samuel, b. 1 Dec. 1691; Sarah, 11 Feb. 1695; Huldah, 30 Nov. 1698; Mary, 11 Feb. 1701; Joseph, July 1707; and Benjamin, 11 Sept. 1709; was lieut. and d. 19 Dec. 1721. SHADRACH, SYDRACK, or SIDRICK, Braintree, youngest s. of the first Thomas, b. in Eng. m. 1 [[278]] Jan. 1655, Mary Barrett, had Rachel, b. 9 Oct. 1655 (Geneal. Reg. XII. 108, says 9 Nov.), d. next yr.; and trial, 7 Feb. 1658. His w. d. 2 Apr. foll. and he m. Deliverance Priest, had Freelove, 30 June 1662, d. in few wks.; Mary, 1 Apr. 1663; Timothy, 3 Sept. 1666, Samuel, 7 Sept. 1667; Ephraim, 17 Jan. 1669; Hannah, 8 Apr. 1672, d. bef. 6 yrs.; and William, 1 Aug. 1675. He d. 19 Oct. 1678, and his wid. d. 17 Jan. 1723. Of the descend. of Shadrach the numerat. is by thousands, and part of them fill 87 pages in Thayer's Geneal. THOMAS, Braintree, shoemaker, perhaps elder br. of Richard the first, brot. from Eng. perhaps as late as 1645, w. Margery, and three prolific s. Thomas, Ferdinando, and Shadrach, or Sydrach, as in his will of 21 June 1664, he calls him; was freem. 1647, when it is writ. Tayer; d. 2 June 1665, well advanc. in yrs.; and his will was pro. 13 Sept. foll. His wid. d. 11 Feb. 1673. THOMAS, Braintree, s. of the preced. perhaps brot. from Eng. w. Ann, and s. Thomas, here had Elizabeth b. 23 Mar. 1647; Isaac, 7 Sept. 1654, d. young; John, 25 Dec. 1656; Experience, 15 Feb. or Mar. 1659; Isaac, again, 30 May 1661; Ebenezer, 7 July 1665;; and Deborah, d. young. He d. 9 Aug. 1693, aged 69; and his wid. d. 7 Feb. 1698. THOMAS, Braintree, s. of the preced. perhaps, but not prob. b. in Eng. m. 25 Mar. 1680, Abigail d. of William Veazie, had Thomas, b. 14 Jan. 1681; William 15 Aug. 1682; and Abigail, 13 July 1685; and d. 7 Dec. 1705. His wid. d. 11 Jan. 1712. THOMAS, Mendon, s. of Ferdinando, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 19 Jan. 1689; Thomas, 14 Jan. 1694; Samuel, 28 Mar. 1696; Temperance, 7 July 1698; David, 8 Feb. 1701; Elizabeth 2 Mar. 1703; John, 17 Sept. 1706; William, 22 Jan. 1708; Margaret, 12 Dec. 1710; and Jemima, 13 Feb. 1712. WILLIAM, Braintree, youngest s. of Shadrach, m. 22 Sept. 1699, wid. Hannah Hayward, had Bethia, bapt. 18 Aug. 1700; Jonathan, 2 May 1703; and William, 11 May 1705. ZECHARIAH, Braintree, s. prob. of Richard the first, d. prob. unm. 29 July 1693. Remarkable may appear the fact, that so few of these men took the o. of freemen, but it is kn. that fewer from Braintree than any other town appear. In 1678, five were sw. and hardly as many more can be seen in the long period preced. from 1630. So little, comparative. was the migrat. of these fams. of Thayer, that in the catalog. of gr. at Harv. are seen nineteen, and not one at Yale. THEALE, THELE, THEELE, or THALE, * JOSEPH, Stamford, prob. s. of Nichoals of Watertown, freem. 1662, is by me presum. to be that man made freem. 1662, whose name in Conn. Col. Rec. I. 391, is giv. Threed; but he was of too much value to be thus obscur. rep. 1671, 3, 5, 6, and 7; aft. 1687; had good est. rem. to Bedford, just beyond the Col. bound. in jurisdict. of N. Y. and I regret that no genealog. details are attain. [[279]] NICHOLAS, Watertown 1638, by w. Eliz had Joseph, b. 24 Oct. 1640; and Elizabeth 5 June 1643; prob. in the autumn of 1645 rem. to Stamford, there d. 19 Aug. 1658. His will dispos. his prop to w. and the two ch. Elizabeth m. 27 Oct. 1659, Willaim Ratcliffe. The wid. m. Thomas Ufford, and d. 27 Dec. 1660, soon aft, her sec. h. THING, JOHN, Boston, freem. 1680. JONATHAN, Ipswich 1641, may have soon aft. been of Hampton, next at Wells, submit. 1653, to the governm. of Mass. and was appoint. constable. JONATHAN, Exeter, prob. s. of the preced. m. Mary, eldest d. of John Gilman, had Jonathan, b. 21 Sept. 1678; John, 16 June 1680; Bartholomew, 25 Feb. 1682; Joseph, Nov. 1684; Elizabeth; Benjamin, 12 Nov. 1688; and Josiah, 1690; was of the gr. jury 1684, and constable next yr. and d. 31 Oct. 1694, in his 40th yr. his w. hav. d. in Aug. 1691, under 33 yrs. as the inscript. on the gr.stones prove. A jury of inq. on the body of capt. Jonathan, the same day, gave verdict, "shot by his own gun." SAMUEL, wh. m. Abigail, d. of John Gilman, 1690, pray. for contin. protect. of Mass. over them, with the preced. was perhaps his br. THISTLE, or THISSELL, JEFFREY, Marblehead 1668, petitnr. against imposts, own. ld. at Beverly. He was from Abbotsbury, a. 8 ms. S. W. from Dorchester, Co. Dorset, and near the coast, as from his will of 29 Oct. 1675, pro. June foll. abstr. in Essex Inst. Coll. II. 231, appears; and he d. at sea, on voyage from Sal Tortudas to N. E. It names d. Jane, then at Abbotsbury, s. Richard and his ch. Jeffrey and Mary. RICHARD, Beverly 1664, s. of the preced. had William, b. 1684, and perhaps others, certain, elder s. Jeffrey and d. Mary; and he was 42 yrs. old. when William was b. THOM, JOHN, Exeter 1677, Nov. 30, sw. alleg. WILLIAM, Lynn 1638, rem. says Lewis to L. I. 1640. THOMAS, BENJAMIN, Springfield, s. of Rowland, m. 1688, Ann Belding of Hatfield, had Sarah, b. 2 Sept. 1690; Mary, 26 Dec. 1692; a s. 20 Dec. 1694; Ann, 21 Nov. 1696; and Samuel,7 Jan. 1699; rem. soon aft. and the name bec. ext. at S. DANIEL, New Haven, eldest s. of John of the same, was propound. for freem. 1670, m. 3 Feb. 1670, Rebecca Thompson, perhaps d. of John, of the same, had Dorothy; John, b. 1674; Daniel, 14 Feb. 1677; Dinah, 26 Dec. 1678; Samuel, 13 Jan. 1681, d. young; Recompense, 27 Mar. 1683; and Israel, 1689. He d. Feb. 1694; and his wid. m. a Perkins. His d. Dorothy m. 13 Apr. 1693, Henry Toll or Towle. DAVID, Marblehead 1648-68. EDWARD, Boston, 1685, agent of Joseph Thompson, of London, merch. EVAN, Boston, 1640, came from Wales, bring. w. Jane and four ch. for wh. 1 Sept. the Court direct. assist. adm. of our ch. 4 Apr. 1641, and freem. 2 June foll. had Jane, bapt. 16 May 1641, wh. being Sunday, may [[280]] be as well relied on as the town rec. that she was b. that day; Dorcas, bapt. 5 Feb. 1643, a. 11 days old, by the ch. rec. when the town rec. gives the same day for b.; but this may be better deserv. of credit, when add. that she d. 28 of the same mo. The w. join. our ch. 7 Mar. 1646, and d. 12 Jan. 1659. He was a vintner, had ano. w. Alice, wid. of Philip Kirtland, or Catlin, of Lynn, wh. he m. 1659 or 60, was of ar. co. 1653, had good est. and d. 25 Aug. 1661. His d. Jane m. 14 Nov. 1657, John Jackson. The wid. seems to have been less aceptab. in her control of the business at the King's Arms public ho. for she was warned to leave town as late as 1672, and not restor. bef. 1676. But she had a stout heart, reliev. the tavern in May 1680 from mortge. of £300, and liv. on till 1697, in her will of 26 Jan. pro. 21 Oct. of that yr. names plenty of ch. and gr.ch. of the latter class one, Abigail, was then w. of Rev. Joseph Belcher. FRANCIS, Boston, m. Rebecca, d. of Matthew Iyans, had John, b. 1665, was liv. with w. 1674. GEORGE, Salem, m. 28 Dec. 1667, Mary, d. of Richard Graves, had Richard, b. 6 Dec. 1668; George, 14 Apr. 1670; Mary, 3 Dec. 1671; Elizabeth 4 Jan. 1673; Hannah, 6 June 1674; and Ruth, 8 Feb. 1676. GEORGE, Boston, by w. Rebecca, had Peter, b. 5 Feb. 1683; George, 16 Mar. 1685; and Maverick, 19 Mar. 1694. Henry is in Geneal. Reg. IX. 354 giv. as one of Gallup's comp. against Quebec 1690; but he is not seen in the more correct list. of XIII. 133, where is no surname Thomas, nor even any bapt. Henry. HUGH, Roxbury, of wh. I can find no more, but that he was adm. freem. 1651, prob. had no ch. as he gave his est. to strangers in blood for the good of Roxbury sch. in order to insure support of hims. and w. Clement for residue of life in 1677, with decent, interm. after repsective dec. and d. 6 May 1683, aged 76 yrs. by town rec. and his wid. d. 24 Sept. foll. JAMES, Salem, 1646-49. JEREMIAH, Marshfield, s. I suppose of the first Nathaniel, had Nathaniel, b. 2 Jan. 1686; Sarah, 25 Dec. 1687; Jeremiah, 14 Feb. 1689; Elizabeth 19 Nov. 1690; Mary, 5 June 1692; Lydia, 26 Mar. 1694; Thankful, 30 June 1695; Jedediah, 19 Aug. 1698; Bethia, 27 Mar. 1701; Ebenezer, 1 Nov. 1703; and Priscilla, 13 Oct. 1705. JOHN, Marshfield 1643, possib. is the adventur. wh. emb. at London, in the Hopewell, Sept. 1635, aged 14, may have been at Salem 1646, but m. 21 Dec. 1648, Sarah, d. of James Pitney of M. prob. had John, as in the will of P. 1663, he is titled sen. JOHN, New Haven, had Elizabeth b. 15 Mar. 1649; Samuel, 5 Sept. 1651; Tabitha, 18 Dec. 1653; all prob. bapt. 12 Feb. 1654; and Joseph, 10 Nov. 1661; ball bapt. in the right of his w. Tabitha, but all the dates of these bapt. in Geneal. Reg. IX. 362, was wrong. He was freem. 1669, a propr. 1685, and f. also of Daniel, John, and Sarah, all nam. with the other four, prob. the younger brood, in his will of 1670. He d. 15 Dec. 1671. Sarah m. 14 Dec. 1658, William Wilmot; and Elizabeth m. Jan. 1674, John Holt. JOHN, New Haven, s. of the preced. m. 1671, Lydia, d. of Edward Parker of the same, had Sarah, b. 13 Dec. [[281]] 1672; Abigail, 21 Nov. 1674; John, 4 Mar. 1676; Hannah, 26 Apr. 1678; Josiah, 15 Jan. 1680; Rebecca, 20 Sept. 1681 or 2; Jeremiah, 16 Feb. 1685; and perhaps others. JOHN, Stratford, of wh. I kn. only the curious caution, deriv. in part from the will of Rev. Adam Blakeman, 16 Mar. 1665, in which he gave L5 to his d. Dorothy (the wid. of his s. John, w. d. so long bef. as 1662) "if she m. not J. T. and shall take her friends' consent in the matter or contin. a wid." and in part from the decision of a court, 10 Oct. 1665, relat. to a reference of the claim of T. to the person of the wid. wh. prob. had giv. encouragem. to ano. suitor. Poor Thomas lost by the award, we may presume, for on 31 Oct. 1665, the wid. m. Francis Hall. See Goodwin's Genealog. Notes. JOHN, Woodbury 1690 perhaps, but not prob. s. of the preced. and John, bapt. 30 Aug. 1695; Samuel, 10 Sept. 1699; and Thomas, 5 Mar. 1701. Of one JOHN, wh. d. at Framingham, 1730, Farmer in MS. relates that his f. was one of the first sett. of Boston, to wh. tradit. his judgm. would have yield. little credit, had it not been assail. on it weak side; for the story went on, that he, the Framingham, man, was upwards of 100 yrs. old. Now only one man ever reach. his century at F. and that was Isaac Clark, while the names of sixty-eight persons in F. wh. d. at the age of 85 and upwards, furnish. us by Barry, do not include any Thomas. The first part of the myth, then, may not be more than ten yrs. beyond the truth, but his example of longevity is sixteen yrs. at least, short of the pretence. JOSEPH, Springfield, s. of Rowland, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 1674; a ch. 1675; ano. 1676, wh. all d. soon; Samuel, 1677; the preced. all b. at Hatfield whence he rem. prob. to Springfield, and lastly to Lebanon; but at S. may have been b. most of the other ch. Mary, 29 Dec. 1679; Joseph, 14 June 1682; Rowland, 26 Mar. 1685; Sarah, 5 Feb. 1687; Ebenezer, 24 Nov. 1688; Josiah, 7 Oct. 1690; and Mercy, 12 Dec. 1692; sw. alleg. 8 Feb. 1679, and was adm. freem. 1690. NATHANIEL, Marshfield, 1643, s. of William, b. in Eng. a. 1606, prob. came with his f. 1640, may have brot w. and ch. William; had Nathaniel, b. 1643, and ds. certain, Mary; Elizabeth b. 1646; and Dorothy; perhaps one or more b. in Eng. nam. in the will of their gr.f. and d. 13 Feb. 1675. He was lieut. and soon made capt. Mary m. Simon Ray of Block Island, as Miss Thomas tells. * NATHANIEL, Marshfield, s. of the preced. m. 19 Jan. 1664, Deborah, youngest d. of Nicholas Jacobs of Hingham, had Nathaniel, Joseph, Deborah, Dorothy, William, Elisha, Joshua, Caleb, Isaac, and Mary; of wh. Dorothy b. 6 Nov. 1670, m. 20 Nov. 1688, Joseph Otis. His w. d. 17 June 1696, and he took 3 Nov. foll. sec. w. at Boston, Elizabeth wid. of Capt. William Condy (but the m. certif. by Cotton Mather is of Elizabeth Dolberry) wh. d. 11 Oct. 1713, if we believe the inscr. on the gr.st.; was rep. 1672, and seven yrs. [[282]] more, also at Boston, under the new chart. 1692, had serv. in Philip's war as a capt. on the first outbreak, and was of the Mass. Counc. d. 2 by town rec. but 22 Oct. 1718, in his 76th yr. by the gr.st. His d. Deborah m. 1 Dec. 1692, John Croad. PETER, Boston, s. of George, m. Elizabeth d. of the Rev. George Burrows (wh. had on 19 Aug. 1692 suffer. by judicial murder under Stoughton, at wh. Cotton Mather assit.) and George, Elias, Peter, William, and Moses. This last is head of a numerous and disting. progeny. RICE, or RISE, Kittery, 1647 submit. to Mass. Nov. 1652, was of Boston 1654, then 38 yrs. old. ROWLAND, Springfield, 1646, m. 14 Apr. 1647, Sarah, d. of Samuel Chapin, had Joseph, b. 6 Jan. 1648, d. next yr.; Samuel, 2 Mar. 1649, d. in few days; Mary, 25 Mar. 1650, d. in few days; Joseph, again, 25 Mar. 1651; Benjamin, 23 May 1653; Josiah, 4 Apr. 1655, d. soon; Josiah, again, 28 Oct. 1657, d. in few days; Samuel, again, 6 May 1662, d. at 39 yrs. unm.; a d. 14 Sept. 1666, wh. m. 1692, James Warriner the sec. Mary, 9 Jan. 1669, d. next yr.; and Mercy 15 May 1671, wh. m. 30 Mar. 1689 John Bagg; beside two others of wh. neither liv. long eno. to find a name, so that of 13 only 5 ch. liv. to adult age. he took o. of alleg. 31 Dec. 1678, or next day, had been at Hadley 1669, and perhaps at Westfield 1670; his w. d. 5 Aug. 1684; and he d. at S. 21 Feb. 1698. SAMUEL, Marshfield, s. perhaps of William the sec. m. 27 May 1680, Mercy, d. of the sec. William Ford, but I kn. no more exc. his d. 2 Sept. 1720. THOMAS, the first name in the list of passeng. in the William and Francis, wh. arr. at Boston, 5 June 1632, hav. sail. from London, 9 Mar. bef. was only placed there, as I am wholly satisf. to befool the officers wh. might make disagreea. inquir. See 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 92. WILLIAM, Newbury, came in the Mary Ann of Yarmouth 1637, emb. in May, aged 16, unm. husbandman of Great Comberton in Co. Worcester [See 4 Mass. Histo. Coll. I. 99], m. 8 Mar. 1666, Susanna, wid. of Robert Rogers, wh. by this m. had no ch. and d. 29 Mar. 1677. He d. 30 Sept. 1690. WILLIAM, Marshfield, a. 1640, made freem. of the Col. 17 Mar. 1642, had come, I think, with Rev. Richard Blinman, Hugh Caulkins, and other pious persons from the princip. of Wales, or the W. of Eng. not in 1630, as Farmer had it, and Miss Thomas repeats, merely, I suppose, out of reverence for the inscr. on the gr.st. call. him "one of the founders of New Plymouth Col." as if a man of his reputa. and import. would not many yrs. earlier be made freem. or mortuary legends applied in a subsequ. age were not proverbial for lack of precision. He was chos. Assit. 1642, and so contin. exc. in 1645 and 6 to his last yr. d. Aug. 1651, aged 78 nearly. His will of 9 July preced. in abstr. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 319. WILLIAM, Marshfield, s. perhaps of the preced. but more prob. of the first Nathaniel, and Miss Thomas says, in 1638, b. in Eng. [[283]] of wh. we kn. only that he d. unm. 21 by rec. but by gr.st. 30 Mar. 1718 in 80th yr. WILLIAM, Newton, by w. Elizabeth had William b. 31 Aug. 1687; and by sec. w. Ann, wid. of Thomas Lovering of Watertown, wh. bore him no ch. m. 29 Aug. 1695, had Joanna, b. 28 Oct. foll. if Jackson be correct, wh. adds that he d. 1697. Seventeen of this name at Harv. three at Yale, and seventeen at all the other N. E. coll. are found by Farmer as gr. in 1834. THOMPSON, TOMSON, THOMSON, or TOMPSON, ANBROSE, Woodbury, s. of the first John of Stratford, by w. Sarah, had John, Ambrose, and other ch. bef. 1701, but had a sec. w. bef. 1706. Grievous was the error of Goodwin, 254, in mak. his w. Sarah to be wid. of Benjamin Beach. ANTHONY, New Haven, 1639, br. of the sec. John and first William of the same, prob. came with Gov. Eaton, with w. and two ch. John, and Anthony, had Bridget b. here, and by sec. w. Catharine had three more ch.

His w. was Susanna, d. prob. of Philip Kirtland, the first of Lynn; their ch. were Abigail, b. at Boston, 25 Nov. 1670; Susanna, 10 June 1673; Ann, 2 Dec. 1677; both at Charlestown; Elinor, 29 Nov. 1679, at Braintree, as were the others; Benjamin, 8 Nov. 1682; Elizabeth 14 Jan. 1685; Philip, 26 July 1687; Sarah, 23 Sept. 1689; and Mary, 29 Oct. 1692; and the sch. master adds to the rec. quos omnes Deus ominpotens, sui filii unigeniti ac servatoris nostri meritis vita eterna dignetur.

Endicot, as Boston, 4 Aug. 1656, to Ann Vicaris; but wh. the bride was, may be hard to find. How inconsist. the b. of Ann found from town rec. is with the rec. of bapt. will be observ. by some, wh. may desire to kn. wh. date to reject, [[286]] and from Mr. White, wh. furnish to Geneal. Reg. IX. that very valu. list of baptisms, I am instruct. that the town rec. is usual. the true one, and the ch. rec. frequent. false, or wonderful, careless rather. Prob. this was kept by Rev. John Davenport, less precise in facts than in doctrine. But the writer of that rec. little consider. to what vexations he would subject those who came in a future age to consult his ambiguous oracle. Often by omiss. as well as commiss. the teacher is blameworthy; and the scrupulous Mr. White was misled to ascribe, p. 362, three ch. to this John Thompson, by w. Ellen, scil. Hannah, Lydia, and Ebenezer, bapt. 1645, 7 and 8, respectiv. not one of wh. was hers, as her m. was some yrs. later than their bapt. These three belong to his br. Anthony, whose w. perhaps was the sis. Thompson ment. in the book by Mr. White mistaken for Ellen. She long liv. a wid. dispos. of three ds. in m. scil. Mary, Nov. 1674, to Samuel Lines; Ann or Hannah, 25 Dec. 1673, to Abraham Bradley; and Elizabeth 29 Oct. 1677, to Benjamin Bradlee; and made her will Oct. 1689, giv. her prop. to them. * JOHN, Plymouth 1643, had John, b. 24 Nov. 1649, d. soon; was prob. rep. for Middleborough, 1674 and eight yrs. foll. JOHN, Dorchester, s. of that David the first sett. kn. in Boston harbor, had confirmat. of his right to the isl. giv. by our Gen. Ct. 1648; in Apr. 1650, pledg. to two Bristol merch. the isl. for a large sum. payable in codfish at Marblehead or Isle of Shoals; but the creditors had it in 1658, by appraise. of Robert Sedgwick and Richard Sprague, for less than amo. of the excon. He or ano. John was of Weymouth, the freem. of 1653. JOHN, Fairfield, eldest, s. of John of Stratford, was a man of so great consequence, as in 1663, to have the Gen. Ct. of Conn. interpose to attempt adjustm. of his diffic. with the ch. there, is in the freemen's list of 1669. JOHN, Barnstable, had Esther, b. 28 July 1652; Elizabeth 28 Jan. 1654; Sarah, 4 Apr. 1657; Lydia, 5 Oct. 1659; Jacob, 24 Apr. 1662; and Thomas, 19 Oct. 1664. JOHN, New Haven, 1659, call. for distinct. the farmer, m. at Branford, perhaps 29 Mar. or 22 May 1666, Priscilla, d. of Thomas Powell, had John, b. 6 Aug. 1667; Priscilla, 7 Aug. 1671; Samuel, 29 Jan. 1674, d. soon; Samuel, again, 1 May 1677; Abigail, 24 Feb. 1680; and Ann, 20 Mar. 1683, wh. prob. d. young; and he d. 13 Feb. 1694. This John is prob. s. of the first John of the same, liv. at East Haven, and made his will the same day he d. nam. four ch. only, the two s. and two ds. Priscilla Chidsy, or Chedsey, w. of Ebenezer, and Abigail, then unm. JOHN, Wethersfield, bef. 1640, rem. in few yrs. JOHN, Farmington, eldest s. of Thomas of the same, propound. for freem. 1670, m. 24 Oct. of that yr. Mary Steele, d. of the sec. John of the same, had John, b. 29 Dec. 1671; Thomas, 30 June 1674, but ano. acco. says, 13 Jan. 1675; Samuel, 29 Dec. 1676; Joseph, 25 Mar. 1679, d. in few wks.; James, 30 May, 1680; Mary, bapt. 1 [[287]] Oct. 1682, wh. liv. over 100 yrs.; Ebenezer, 23 Nov. or by ano. rept. 21 Dec. 1684; and Nathaniel, 16 Jan. 1687. JOHN, Portsmouth, adm. freem. of Mass. 1672. JOHN, New Haven, the mariner, so call. for distinct. propound. for freem. 1671, and was propr. 1685. Mr. Judd thinks he was not relat. of the other Johns, but had a child, perhaps Mary, in Sept. 1667; Samuel, b. 12 May 1669; and Sarah, 16 Jan. 1672. JOHN, Stratford, s. of John of the same, call. jun. was propound. for freem. 1671, d. 1681, had no w. or ch. and by his will helps us to certainty in the field where doubt was most diffus. the affin. of memb. of so common a name. Thus to his mo. to John, s. of br. Ambrose, to childr. of John Hurd, wh. m. his sis. Sarah, to childr. of Jonathan Curtis and sis. Abigail, to a cousin, ch. of Matthew Mitchell, wh. was, we kn. the first of sev. we find gifts, and the silence as to Esther, would almost serve to show, without the rec. that she was d. JOHN, Reading, by Eaton marked as one of the early sett. JOHN, Rehoboth, m. 19 Sept. 1682, Sarah Smith, but to tell whose d. she was, or whose s. he was, I utterly despair. JOHN, New Haven, mariner, was a propr. 1685, as was also ano. JOHN, of the same call. jun. wh. may have been s. of the one of the preced. or of William. JOHN, Salisbury 1690, that yr. m. a Brewer. JONATHAN, Woburn, s. of James of the same, m. 28 Nov. 1655, Susanna, d. of Thomas Blodget, had Susanna, b. 4 July 1661; Jonathan, 28 Sept. 1663; James, 1666, d. soon; James, again, 27 June 1667; Sarah, 1 June 1670; Simon, 15 June 1673; and Ebenezer, 18 Aug. 1676; and d. 20 Oct. 1691. Jonathan, his s. was gr.-gr.f. of Sir Benjamin, knight. by Geo. III. the disting. philosoph. better kn. as Count Rumford, with wh. title was hon. by the k. of Bavaria, wh. was b. at W. 26 Mar. 1753. Farmer had once suppos. that the Count was descend. of Rev. William, to wh. mistake he was led by the first Presdt. Adams; and the correct. is due to the investigat. of Francis Jackson of Boston. JOSEPH, Wallingford, perhaps s. of the first John of New Haven, had m. prob. as sec. w. the wid. of Isaac Royce of the same, and was d. in 1712, when his heirs are ment. * JOSEPH, Billerica, s. of Rev. William, m. 24 July 1662, Mary, d. of Richard Bracket of Braintree, at B. was sch. master, town clk. ens. 1678, and lieut. 1683, selectman, capt. deac. many yrs. and rep. 1692 under the new chart. also 99, 1700, and l, and d. 13 Oct. 1732. His wid. Mary, a sec. w. d. 9 Oct. 1743, aged 91, Farmer says. MAURICE, Gloucester, a London merch. engag. in trade to Canada, as early as 1631, was much desir. by our governm. to sett. with us, hav. in 1639, begun a fishing trade at Cape Ann, but only a trans. visit. if he ever came, wh. is improb. Winthrop I. 307. MILES, Kittery 1659. ROBERT, Boston, a man of distinct. in London, where he m. I conject. a sis. of Gov. Hopkins of Conn. by wh. col. he was much confid. in, was a [[288]] trans. resid. here 1639, bought the old ch. edifice and ground on wh. it stood in State Str. for L160 in 1639. See note in Winthrop I. 318. Yet he was satisf. I fear, with the outward benefit, for he did not join the worship. assemb. But he was a powerful friend of Mass. and for serv. our Ct. made gr. to him of 500 acres. In Hutch. Coll. some letters from him show good disposition and judgment. SAMUEL, Braintree, s. of Rev. William, b. in Eng. m. 25 Apr. 1656, Sarah, d. of Edward Shepard, had Sarah, b. 27 Apr. 1657, d. soon; Deboroah, 25 Mar. 1660; Samuel, 6 Nov. 1662; Edward, 20 Apr. 1665, H.

THOMAS, Farmington, s. of Thomas of the same, was adm. freem. 1677, m. Elizabeth d. of William as Porter thinks, but in my opin. of Arthur Smith, the first, had Elizabeth; Thomas, b. 25 Mar. 1679; Arthur, 17 Oct. 1680; Philoeutheros, bapt. 12 Nov. 1682; John, 14 Dec. 1684; Margaret, 20 Feb. 1687; Ann, 10 Feb. 1689; Samuel, 18 Oct. 1691; and Daniel. But he had by a sec. w. Abigail (wh. murder. him); and ano. ch. strange. nam. Mercy, b. 15 [[289]] Oct. 1706, by his wid. in prison. On 14 Dec. 1705, the w. threw a pair of shears at her h. of wh. the point penetrat. the brain, caus. his d. in few days. She was convict. but after one or two reprieves, the sentence was execut.

WILLIAM, Braintree, had been maric. at Brazen Nose Coll.

John Knowles, and Thomas James, to Virg. begun in Oct. preced. Our governm. had in 1640 gr. him 120 acres. By sec. w. Ann, wid. of Simon Crosby of Cambridge he had Ann, b. 3 Mary. or 1 May, as the numeral for the day and month may respective. be read, in 1648 or 9. He was made freem. 1656, but "fell into the Devil's bath." as the Magn. III. cap. IVII. calls his state of melancho. and gave up his pub. min. seven yrs. and d. 10 Dec. 1666 in 68th yr. The wid. d. 11 Oct. 1675, aged 68. Mary m. 3 Dec. 1641, Joseph Wise of Roxbury; and Elinor m. 1644, William Veazey, and next John French, and d. 23 Apr. 1711. Of this fam. it is obs. that they always discard the sec. letter of the name, tho. Mather, whose biog. is exceed. meagre, prints it as here. WILLIAM, New Haven 1647, br. of Anthony, had perhaps accomp. Gov. Eaton, had neither w. nor ch. but d. 24 Apr. 1683, and to his will of 6 Oct. preced. we owe very much of our kn. of ws. and ch. of others. He gave prop. to John, s. of his br. Anthony; to John and William, s. of his br. John; to Bridget Bowers, Ann Staunton, and Lydia Cruttenden, ds. of br. Anthony; and to ds. of br. John, viz. Mary Lines, Ann Bradley and her h. Abraham, and Elizabeth Bradley and her h. Benjamin. WILLIAM, New London, s. prob. of Rev. William of Braintree, b. in Eng. after his degree at Harv. was a preach. at Springfield 1654-6, and m. 19 Nov. 1655, Catharine, d. of the first Richard Treat of Wethersfield, was employ. in 1658, by the Commissnrs. of the Unit. Col. acting for the London Soc. Prop. Gospel, and some yrs. succeed. as missiona. to the Pequot Ind. freem. 1660; but in 1664, he gave his w. all his prop. by deed "suppos. mys. near d. and a. to take a voyage [[290]] in Virg." From there he wrote to his w's br. James, 29 June 1665, and this is the last that is kn. of him, tho. in the Coll. catal. the yr. of his d. has never been giv. so that, from the blank in Mather, Farmer suppos. him liv. in 1698, when prob. he had left the world 30 yrs. bef. Yet a suspicion reasonab. arises, from the Conn. Col. Rec. I. 432, direct. the constable to secure prop. to amount of a certain debt, that his object was to escape creditors, rather than to preach the gospel.

THORNDIKE, JOHN, Beverly, perhaps s. of Rev. Goere, rector of Little Carleton, near Lowth, Co. Lincoln, bapt. 23 July 1603, and br. of Rev.

In 1668, he went to Eng. there had Alice, and Martha, bapt. 10 Apr. 1669, then of ripe yrs. and made his will there, 29 July of that yr. in contemplat. of his ret. and by that instr. it is found, that d.

The keeper of that rec. enhances his wrong, by mutilat. the name of the ch. bapt. 23 Mar. 1645, Desiretruth, from wh. he withdraws the last syl. but I am happy to assure the admirers of a good name, that the evidence of the Roxbury ch. volume vindicates the whole truth. He was prob. liv. at Lynn, when freem. 2 May 1638, and Lewis mades him rem. to L. I. 1642. If so, ano. WILLIAM wh. is the same that in the town rec. of R. is call.

So he might well snap his fingers in contempt of the town clk. of R. especial. after John Acres of B. had m. his eldest d. wh. join. the ch. at R. 8 July 1666, and on the next Sunday triumph. brot. to bapt. her ds.

THEOPHILUS, Yarmouth, s. of Rev. Thomas, b. in Eng. was of Malden 1674, where he took o. of fidel. was the yr. preced. assoc. with a party of pioneers for sett. at Worcester, but no [[292]] more is heard of him. * THOMAS, Dorchester, freem. 3 Sept. 1634, Dr. Harris thot. came in 1630, but no ment. of him is found bef. 1634, and in very few yrs. he is heard of at Windsor, there was in good esteem, and had five ch. but only Samuel is found by rec. to be b. there, and that was 13 July 1645; and in 1647 alone, three ds. Thomas, Priscilla, and Ann. He was a tanner, or at least sold a tanyard to Elder John Strong. THOMAS, Stratford, of wh. very little is kn. exc. that he had Theophilus, b. there, 10 June 1651; and aft. 1653 no more is heard of him at Stratford, but he was rep. 1651. THOMAS, Hartford, a tanner, perhaps s. of Thomas of Windsor, had liv. at Milford, there m. 1674, Hannah d. of Nathaniel Farrand, had only ch. Samuel, wh. with w. Hannah are nam. in his will made 1694, tho. he liv. to 22 Sept. 1703. THOMAS, Yarmouth, came soon aft. the Bartholomew act of 1662, bring. w. and ch. not prob. all he ever had, but the name of his w. is not ment. Nor do I find the Univ. at wh. he was bred, or the liv. from wh. he was eject. At Y. he was as early as 18 June 1663, and a. 1694 rem. to Boston, where his s. Thomas had in 1677 join. with Mather's ch. and d. 15 Feb. 1700, aged over 90 yrs. Sewall calls him very near. 93. He was perhaps something advanc. towards sec. childhood, when call. by Cotton Mather, Jan. 1694, to testify how Margaret Rule was raised from her bed by an invisible force, to touch the garret floor, "lifted up from all that under her," as many be read on p. 23 of the London ed. 1700 of "More Wonders of the Invisible World" by Robert Calef of Boston. But the witness may have been his s. of the same name. Of his ch. we guess at the success. for the date of b. is unkn. and foll. Dr. Bond count. these seven: Ann, wh. m. Nathaniel Hall of Yarmouth; Mary, m. Judah Thacher, and d. 30 Nov. 1708, aged 68; Elizabeth m. Joshua Gee, of Boston, and next Rev. Peter Thacher of Milton; Thomas; Theophilus; Priscilla, wh. d. at 11 yrs. whether at B. or at Y. is not indic. by Mather, wh. (tho. he tells of the f. that he was "aged and faithful" adds not ano. syl. but) favors the youthful maid near the end of his book VI. with more than a half of one of the large fol. pages; and Timothy b. a. 1650. THOMAS, Watertown, adm. into the ch. 19 Aug. 1688, is by Bond, reput. s. perhaps of the preced. and one of the undertak. 1673, for sett. of Worcester. I find him at Malden in 1674, taking o. of fidel. and apparent. younger than Theophilus; yet no more can we gather. * TIMOTHY, Boston, merch. s. of Rev. Thomas, b. in Eng. and Bond strange. thot. he may have been eldest, tho. his earliest impress. was that he was youngest, freem. 1672, by w. Experience, perhaps sis. of the first John Brooking, wh. d. 23 Mar. 1694, had Mary, b. 2 Apr. 1674; Thomas d. young; Elizabeth 16 Nov. 1677; Timothy, 6 May 1681; Catharine, 16 Apr. 1683; Experince, 23 Feb. 1687; and Ebenezer, bapt. 12 Jan. 1690. He was rep. 1693, 4, and 5; and ano. w. Sarah, wh. d. 3 Dec. 1725, and he d. 19 Sept. [[293]] 1726, bur. 22d.

When one of the reps. for Boston, he was of the Comtee. charged with the service of issuing the first paper currency aft. the disastr. expedit. of Phips against Quebec. TIMOTHY, Boston, prob. not s. of the preced. m. 1716, Elizabeth Danforth of Billerica, perhaps d. of the sec. Jonathan of the same, had Timothy, b. 5, bapt. 7 Apr. 1717; Danforth, 25 Feb. bapt. 1 Mar. 1719; Samuel, 25, bapt. 26 Mar. 1721, d. soon; Elizabeth 1 Oct. 1722, bapt. 10 Mar. foll.; Samuel, again, 6 Dec. 1724, d. young; Hannah, 7 Nov. 1726; Thomas, 13 June 1729; Samuel, again, 25 Oct. 1731; and Mary, 2 Sept. 1736. But of the last 5 or 6, I feel less confidence, inasmuch as the rec. of bapt. in Mather's ch. does not concur with this acco. of the bs.

THOMAS, Hampton, sw. alleg. 1678, and mark. by Dr. Belkn. 1681, as hav. been b. 1649, wh. was slight ground for fear that he might be the Quaker, wh. emb. 30 May 1656, aged 34, at London, in the Speedwell, and arr. at Boston, 27 July. But this passeng. was prob. ret. by the same vessel; and Belkn. and Farmer, and Geneal. Reg. VII. 203, 4, all spell without s the name of this Hampton man, wh. authority united does not prevail with me. He was Provost marshall in 1684, employ. by the Ct. THOMAS, Wrentham, perhaps s. of the first Thomas, by w. Mehitable, had Mehitable, b. 1 Aug. 1686; Mary, 16 Mar. 1688, d. soon; Thomas, 2 Nov. 1689; Ichabod, 9 Aug. 1692, d. soon; as his mo. had 2 days aft. bring. him into the world; and by w. Esther had David, 20 Nov. 1693; and Daniel, 25 Sept. 1695, perhaps more; and d. 15 Dec. 1704. Five of this name at Harv. and two at Yale had been gr. in 1851. THURTON. See Thurston. THWAITS, ALEXANDER, Concord, came in the Hopewell from London, 1635, aged 20, perhaps d. or rem. early, or the giv. of his corn to Rev. P. Bulkley, by our Gen. Ct. in May 1640, is dark. At the East he may be seen sw. alleg. to Charles II. 8 Sept. 1665. [[298]] THWING, BENJAMIN, Boston, came as one of the serv. or apprent. of Ralph Hudson, in the Susan and Ellen, 1635, aged 16, by w. Deborah, wh. join. our ch. 9 Oct. 1641, had Deborah, b. 17 May and d. 23 Aug. bef.; John, 21 Nov. bapt. 1 Dec. 1644, the f. hav. join. the ch. Feb. preced. had also Edward, b. 14 Nov. 1652; Deboroah, again, 13 Jan. 1660; and Benjamin, earlier, no doubt, than the last two; was freem. 1645. Farmer thot. he was a propr. at Concord. His master, by will, 1638, left him L10, when his time should be out, and his master's wid. left him ano. sum in 1651. BENJAMIN, Boston, s. of the preced. carpenter, by w. Abigail, had Benjamin, b. 24 July 1670, d. young; Lydia, 25 Jan. 1673, d. young; Benjamin, again, 20 July 1678; and Lydia, again, 20 July 1679; was freem. 1680. EDWARD, Boston, s. of the first Benjamin, freem. 1675, by w.

He d. 6 Sept. 1690, when the gr.st. makes the age 47 yrs. 9 mos. and 13 days, so exactly wrong almost two yrs. Lucki. all regard to the truth of the inscript. is tak. away by the preposter. fals. caus. by change of the Arabic 9 to 2. WILLIAM, Boston, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 7 Apr. 1686; William, 8 July 1690; and John, 18 June 1692. TIBBALS, JOHN, Milford, s. of Thomas of the same, was propound. for freem. 1671, liv. in Derby 1679-1703, had w. and childr. but names are unkn. JOSIAH, Milford, br. of the preced. propound. for freem. 1669, m. 13 July 1670, Mary Sherwood, prob. d. of Thomas. THOMAS, Milford 1646, was perhaps one of the first sett. 1639, had emb. in the Truelove 1635, the last sh. in that yr. from London, aged 20, and was, no doubt, soon aft. in some pt. of the riv. towns of Conn. happy eno. for serv. in the Pequot war 1637, and was among the freem. of 1669. In 1671 when he was serg. had a gr. of 50 acres for the serv. By w. Mary, wh. d. June 1644, had Mary, bapt. Feb. 1644, perhaps a yr. old; Samuel, 14 Apr. 1644; and both prob. d. young. By a sec. w. of wh. the name is unkn. he had John, bapt. late in 1645; Thomas, Mar. 1651; Mary, and Sarah, b. 29 Nov. 1654; Hannah, Mar. 1657; and Josiah; and d. 1703. In his will of 1699, pro. 1 June 1703, are nam. the three last nam. s. Sarah, wh. was w. of Joseph Warriner, and had first been of Daniel Collins; Mercy, wh. m. 12 July 1664, Nicholas Smith; and Hannah, w. of Eliakim Cooley. THOMAS, Milford, s. of the preced. m. 12 Dec. 1672, Abigail, d. of John Stream, had Thomas, Samuel, Joseph, and perhaps others, and d. 17 Oct. 1703. [[299]] TIBBETS, TYBBOT or TEBBETS, with sev. var. spell. EPHRAIM, Dover, s. of Jeremy, m. Rose, d. of Thomas Austin, had Ephraim, b. 31 Dec. 1694; Ann, 8 July 1698; Henry, 29 July 1700; Abigail, 12 Aug. 1701; Joseph, 14 Oct. 1702; Elisha, 16 Feb. 1705; Aaron, 26 Feb. 1706; Mary, 16 Nov. 1709; Elijah, 23 Mar. 1711; Rose, 4 Feb. 1713; and Elizabeth 30 Oct. 1716. HENRY, Dover 1643, came in the names from London, 1635, aged 39, with Elizabeth 39; Remembrance 28; one of wh. may perhaps have been his w. and one sis.; Jeremy 4; and Samuel, 2. In the ship's clearance he is call. shoemaker. Where he first sat down is unkn. He support. jurisdict. of Mass. in 1665; by w. Mary had Rebecca wh. m. Thomas Nock; also Thomas; and perhaps others; d. prob. 1678. HENRY, Wickford or Westerly, in 1670 was made a constable by auth. of Conn. but in the obscure controv. a. bounds between the Cols. of Conn. and R. I. he was claim. by both parties. HENRY, Dover, prob. youngest s. of Jeremy, by w. Joyce had Benjamin, b. 31 Oct. 1700; Edward, 2 Feb. 1703; Paul 26 June 1705; and Susanna, 31 Oct. 1707. JEREMY, eldest s. of Henry the first, b. 1631 in Eng. stood up in 1665 for jurisdict. of Mass. m.

Catharine Mason, had Catharine, 24 Aug. 1713; Mary, 11 Oct. 1716; and Hannah, 23 June 1721. NATHANIEL, Dover, s. of Henry the first, by w. Elizabeth had Bridget, b. 26 Sept. 1700. and perhaps more; was tak. by the Ind. 2 Aug. 1706. SAMUEL, Dover, br. of the preced. m. 1 Sept. 1686, Dorothy Tuttle, prob. d. of the first John of the same, had Samuel, and perhaps others.

WALTER, Gloucester, the freem. of 19 May 1642, was selectman that and three foll. yrs. d. 14 Aug. 1651. His d. Mary, the only ch. whose name is kn. m. 6 Nov. 1643, William Haskell, tho. it may be presum. that he had ano. d.

TICKNALL, HENRY, is the name of a paseng. emb. at London in the Hopewell, in the autumn of 1635, aged only 15; but whether is ever reached Boston, or where he sat down, is untold. TICKNOR, or anciently, TICKNER, WILLIAM, Scituate 1646, or earlier, m. at Boston, 29 Oct. 1656, Hannah, d. of John Stockbridge, had John, b. 1659, d. young; and William, 1664; perhaps others. His w. d. 1665; and he m. 1666, Deborah, d. of Thomas Hyland. He was from Co. Kent; but when he came, or when he d. is uncert. WILLIAM, Scituate, s. of the preced. m. Lydia, d. of deac. Joseph Tilden, had John, b. 1699; William, 1700; Lydia, 1702; and perhaps more. He rem. to Lebanon in 1710. John was gr.f. of the late Elisha Ticknor, Esq. of Boston, Dart. Col. 1783, whose only s. George, is the widely kn. histor. of Spanish Literat. TIDD, JOHN, Woburn, prob. s. of that John, spelled Tead, b. in Eng. m. 14 Apr. 1650, Rebecca Wood, had Hannah, b. 21 Sept. 1652, John, 26 Feb. 1655; Mary, 13 Nov. 1656; Samuel, 16 Jan. 1650; Joseph, 18 Jan. 1661, d. in 2 wks.; Joseph, again, perhaps, but not cert.

SAMUEL, Worburn, wh. d. 1651, may have been s. of the first John, writ. Tead, and b. in Eng. may have liv. at Salem, by w. Sarah had Elizabeth b. May 1642, and he soon d. for his wid. had m. John Southwick long eno. to bear him a d. June 1644. See Tead. TIDMARSH, RICHARD, Salem, m. 20 June 1659, Mary Felmingham, d. perhaps of Francis, had Richard, b. 12 July 1660. TIFF, TIFT, or TEFFE, WILLIAM, Boston 1638, the freem. of 2 June 1641, with his w. Ann, had join. the ch. 2 Aug. 1640, when the spelling is Teffe, and he is call. tailor. His will of 1 May 1646, pro. 2 Nov. 1648, ment. w. Ann, d. Lydia, and br. John. The name is rare, and no doubt various. spell. at differ. times and places. Stephen Tift was one of the prisoners taken in Montgomery's attack on Quebec, 31 Dec. 1775. J. K. Teff, Esq. an estim. mem. of the Georgia Hist. Soc. at Savannah, was prob. an emigrant from R. I. TIFFANY, HUMPHREY, Rehoboth 1663, by w. Elizabeth had Sarah, b. 6 July 1683; was, I think, inhab. of Dover for some time, but k. 15 July 1685, on the journey betw. Swanzey and Boston, by a stroke of lightn. [[301]] TIFFT, ELIAS, a soldier of our ranks in Philip's war. JOHN, portsmouth, R. I. 1655, on the freemen's list that yr. In 1674 he was of Kingstown, made his will, then, in wh. he names s. Samuel, Joshua, and d. Tabitha, w. of Samuel Wilson. He was prob. br. of William Teffe or Tift of Boston. JOSHUA, Providence, at Wickford, 1674, a renegado, wh. hav. m. a Wampanoag, was true to the Ind. side, k. or wound. many Eng. it was said, especial. at the gr. swamp fight, 19 Dec. 1675, taken 14 Jan. foll. by some Providence men, was soon execut. with a stigma "that he had never heard a sermon but once for 14 yrs." See all the contempo. reports of the war. He was s. of John, and so I presume was SAMUEL, of Wickford 1674. TILDEN, JOHN, Scituate 1643, is sometimes perhaps giv. Tilten. JOSEPH, Scituate, eldest s. of Nathaniel, b. in Eng. came in the Hercules 1635, from Sandwich, with his f. wh. was of Tenterden in Co. Kent, m. 20 Nov. 1649, Alice or Elizabeth d. of John Twisden, had Nathaniel, b. Sept. 1650; John, Dec. 1652; Rebecca, Feb. 1655; Joseph, 12 Feb. 1657; prob. d. young, as he is not ment. in the will of his f.; Stephen, 14 May 1659; Samuel, 1660; Elizabeth 1665; Lydia, 1666; and Benjamin 1668, wh. d. unm. at 25 yrs. He was deac. and d. in May 1670, leav. good est. by will of 12 of that mo. to wid. Elizabeth and the eight ch. by name, and br. Stephen, and sis. Elizabeth Garrett. But of this last some doubt is felt, whether is mean more than Christian relationship, or perhaps the sec. w. of Richard G. wh. for his first, had Lydia, sis. of this testat. NATHANIEL, Scituate, came in the Hercules 1635 from Sandwich, in Co. Kent, being one of an old fam. at Tenterden, near Cranbrook, in that shire, bring. w. Lydia, seven ch. and seven serv. He may have visit. our country bef. and went home to bring his household; but it does not appear by any facts. In May 1637, with his friend Hatherly, he was appoint. by Plymouth Col. to sett. the bounds betw. it and Mass. He was rul. elder in the ch. and d. 1641, the inv. being of 31 July, and his will of 25 May preced. in that yr. It names his w. Lydia, perhaps d. of Thomas Bourne of Marshfield, yet m. in Eng. to wh. he gives his ho. at Tenterden, all the seven ch. Joseph; Thomas, b. a. 1621; Mary, the w. of Thomas Lapham, m. 13 Mar. 1637; Sarah, the w. of George Sutton; Judith; Lydia; and Stephen; also two serv. wh. should serve his eldest s. Judith m. Abraham Preble, and Lydia m. Richard Garrett. NATHANIEL, Scituate, eldest s. of Joseph, d. 17 Dec. 1731. STEPHEN, Marshfield, youngest s. of Nathaniel first, m. 15 Jan. 1662, Hannah, d. of Thomas Little, had Hannah, b. 14 Oct. 1662; Stephen, 1664; Abigail, 1666; Mary, 1668; Judith, 1670; Joseph, 1672; Mercy, 1 May 1674; Ruth, 1676; Isaac, 1678; Ephraim, 1680; Ebenezer, 1681; and David, 1685. Thro. this br. descent. the late Hon. Joseph, [[302]] of Boston. THOMAS, Plymouth, one of the first comers, arr. 1623, by the Ann, bring. prob. w. and ch. at least he had lds. for three rights assign. that yr. but as none of this name had sh. in div. of cattle 1627, and no d. is suppos. to have occur. in the Col. for some yrs. after 1621, my infer. is that he went home. Perhaps he was br. of the first Nathaniel; but most surely not, as Farmer thot. him, his s. THOMAS, Marshfield, prob. s. of the elder Nathaniel, b. at Tenterden, Co. Kent, was old eno. in 1643 to bear arms, when he liv. at Scituate; at M. his w. Elizabeth whose f. is not ascert. d. or was bur. 12 Dec. 1663; and his d. Susanna was bur. 9 Sept. 1684; and s. John d. 20 Apr. 1685; but one or both may have been ch. of that Mary Holmes, maid or wid. is unkn. m. 24 Jan. 1665. TILESTONE, or TILSTON, THOMAS, Dorchester, had gr. of ld. 1634, freem. 9 Mar. 1637, had w. Elizabeth s. Thomas, b. a. 1633; Timothy, a. 1637; Elizabeth 1639; Ruth; Naomi, d. young; prob. Cornelius, wh. d. 20 July 1659; Bathsheba, b. 1649; Onesiphorus, 1651; and perhaps others; was fined in Sept. 1640 for abs. from a jury; but we can tell no more of him exc. his d. 24 June 1694, aged 83, says Blake. Ruth m. 11 Dec. 1657, Richard Denton; and next Timothy Foster; and Bathsheba m. John Payson. THOMAS, Dorchester, s. of the preced. perhaps (I dare not say prob.) b. in Eng. but the rec. allows us to kn. only that he d. 11 Sept. 1718, aged a. 85 yrs. Whether he had w. and ch. is uncert. Perhaps he was the author wh. compos. verses on the d. of John Foster, 1681, as Thomas in his Hist. of Print. I. 277, tells. * TIMOTHY, Dorchester, s. of the first Thomas, freem. 1666, m. 28 Apr. or 3 May 1659, Sarah, d. of James Bridgeman of Hartford, had Timothy, b. a. 1664; Elizabeth 29 Mar. bapt. 1 Apr. 1666; Cornelius, 4 Sept. bapt. 4 oct. 1668; Sarah, b. 7 Sept. 1671; Thomas, 19 Oct. 1675; James, 2 July 1678; Ann, 7 Dec. 1681. He was rep. 1689, 92, a cooper by trade, and d. 10 Aug. 1697, leav. large est. of wh. the mills have contin. in the fam. until this time; and the wid. d. 26 June 1712, aged 69. TILL, or TYLLS, JAMES, Scituate 1643. PETER, Boston, fisherman, in whose youthful days the Ct. 1639 order, that he shall be taught seamanship by his master, John Cloise or Cloyes; m. 26 Feb. 1652, Elizabeth Nick; and was liv. 1671, a carpenter. TILLEY, EDWARD, Plymouth 1620, came with w. in the Mayflower, and two ch. "their cousins," Henry Sampson, and Humility Cooper. He and his w. d. the first winter. Humility went home and d. HUGH, Salem, perhaps in 1629, as in Haz. I. 280, when he was serv. to Sir Richard Saltonstall, certain. at Yarmouth 1638 and 43, being a witness there to a will early in 1639, and enrol. to bear arms in the latter yr. Clearly this man's name is by some read Hillier, and he d. 28 Jan. 1648; and his wid. m. 3 Nov. foll. Thomas Hucking. JOHN, Plymouth, [[303]] perhaps br. of Edward, came with w. and one ch. Elizabeth in the Mayflower, 1620, and all (it was believ. by Shurtleff in Geneal. Reg. I. 52) d. next winter. But his d. Elizabeth wh. m. John Howland outliv. all her fellow passeng. exc. three wh. were younger. JOHN, Dorchester 1630, is prob. the same, wh. was in 1624, engag. at Cape Ann, with Thomas Gardner, in the oversight of that planta. freem. 4 Mar. 1635, and perhaps the master of the coast. vessel k. by the Ind. at Conn. riv. next yr. in Oct. with circumst. of horrid cruelty, as in Winthrop I. 200 is told. His wid. cont. at D. NATHANIEL, emb. in the Abigail 1635, from London, aged 32, but I kn. no more of him. THOMAS, Plymouth 1643. WILLIAM, Boston, is perhaps the passeng. in the Abigail from London 1635, aged 28, with Nathaniel, and may have been his br. perhaps was the Barnstable man 1643. In 1649, he had w. Alice, and was inhab. 1658; but in 1665 was subject of complaint by w. Of Elizabeth T. wh. in 1653 at Springfield, m. Thomas Merrick, tho. from that union, the Tilley has grown into a common baptism. prefix, it is, I fear, impossib. to find any trace of parentage. TILLINGHAST, BENJAMIN, Providence, s. prob. youngest of the first Pardon, had three ds. of whose dates I hear nothing, nor names; but it is said that they m. Solomon Drown, Edward Kinnicutt, and Christopher Arnold, respective. JOHN, Providence, of whose descent I am ign. had perhaps other ch. beside Mary, b. a. 1689, wh. m. 2 Nov. 1709, Richard Ward. JOSEPH, Providence, br. of Benjamin, by first w. had Paris; and by sec. w. Lydia, had Elizabeth; Samuel; Nicholas, b. 26 May 1726; and Daniel; to ea. of wh. I would gladly give dates. PARDON, Providence, b. a. 1622, it is said, near Beach Head on the coast of Sussex, was sett. as Bapt. min. 1645. See Benedict, Hist. I. 478. He built at his own exp. the first meeting-ho. and gave it to the soc. in 1711, with the lot it stood on; and d. 29 Jan. 1718. By his sec. w. Lydia, prob. d. of Philip Tabor of Tiverton, he had Pardon; Philip; Joseph, b. 1677; Benjamin; Mary; Abigail; Mercy, b. a. 1679; Hannah; and Elizabeth He d. 29 Jan. 1718; but he had three ch. by a former w. whose names are unkn. Mary m. one of the numerous Carpenters at Pautuxet, prob. a. s. of William; Abigail m. Nicholas Sheldon; Mercy m. the third Nicholas Power, as his sec. w. had nine ch. and d. 13 Nov. 1769, aged 91; Hannah m. a Hale of Swanzey; and Elizabeth m. a Tabor of New London. He is, I believe, founder of a long line, eight of wh. had, says Farmer, been gr. at Brown Univ. in 1834. PARDON, Providence, s. of the preced. rem. to East Greenwich, and had John, Joseph, and Philip, beside one d. Mercy, w. of Peter Mawney, as from his will is learn. This docum. names a great many gr.ch. PHILIP, Providence, br. of the preced. was prob. the soldier in GallopÕs comp. 1690, m. 3 May 1692, Martha Holmes, prob. a gr.d. of persecut. Obadiah, [[304]] had Charles, b. 5 Mar. 1693; Philip, 9 Aug. 1694; John, 4 Apr. 1696; Jonathan, 18 Sept. 1698; Martha, 20 Dec. 1699; Pardon, 15 Dec. 1701; Obadiah, 2 Dec. 1703, d. young; Joseph, 18 Mar. 1706, d. at 18 yrs.; Lydia, 16 Oct. 1708; Sarah, 5 Mar. 1710; perhaps Samuel, 1711; Ann, 13 Apr. 1713; William, 22 Jan. 1715; Elisha, 29 Aug. 1716; and Mary, 16 Feb. 1718. TILLOTSON, JOHN, Rowley, rem. to Newbury, m. 14 July 1648, Dorcas, sis. of Thomas Coleman, wh. perhaps brot. her in the James from Southampton 1635, arr. at Boston 3 June, had Mary, b. 13 Feb. 1650; John, 21 Feb. 1651; and James, 19 Dec. 1652. His w. d. 1 Jan. 1655, and he m. 24 May foll. Jane Evans, had Philadelphia, 28 Sept. 1656; Joseph, 11 Jan. 1658; and Jonathan, 6 July 1659. As Coffin tells no more of him, I judge that he rem. prob. to Conn. JOHN, Saybrook 1671, prob. s. of the preced. liv. on the E. or Lyme side of the gr. riv. and was involv. with many of his townsmen in the quarrel with New London people a. mowing the meadow intermed. wh. led to mut. indictms. as in Trumbull's Col. Rec. II. 558 appears. He m. 25 Nov. 1680, Mary Morris, d. of John of Hartford, had Mary, b. 30 Nov. 1681; John, 25 Oct. 1683; Joshua, 26 Mar. 1687; Joseph, 29 Mar. 1689; Martha, 1 Nov. 1691; and Thomas, 24 Mar. 1694; and d. 5 June 1719. JONATHAN, Lyme, perhaps br. of the preced. m. 10 Jan. 1683, Mary Jones, had Jonathan, b. 26 Oct. 1684. TILLMAN, JOHN, in Maine, among those on W. side of Kennebec riv. sh. sw. alleg. to Charles II. Sept. 1665. TILSON, EDWARD, Scituate, d. 1660; may be the same call. EDMUND, at Plymouth 1643; and 25 Oct. 1660, Elizabeth wh. may have been his d. m. Benajah Dunham, of Eastham; and on the same day Mary T. m.

EPHRAIM, Plymouth, perhaps br. of the preced. m. 7 July 1666, Elizabeth Hoskins, d. perhaps of William. JOHN, Rowley 1643. TILTON, ABRAHAM, Ipswich, the freem. of 1681, was perhaps s. of William of Lynn, apprent. in 1653, to John Hood, wh. then being in Eng. discharg. him, and he m. the same yr. or earlier, a d. (prob. Deliverance) of Roger Shaw of Hampton; in 1669 was of Kittery, and at I. with w. made deeds of gift 1702, to s. Samuel and Isaac. His wid.

Sarah Martin, Mary, w. of Tristram Brown, Rebecca, w. of Thomas Durges, whose former h. was John Lamb, and Abigail Bell, dec. late w. of Robert Bell. formerly of John Filmore. DANIEL, of Hampton or Exeter in 1689, was perhaps br. of [[305]] the preced. I conject. and m. 23 Dec. 1669, Mehitable Weare. Of one Daniel, perhaps a s. more prob. gr.s. of William of Ipswich, with his br. lieut. Jacob, striking proof of triumph. over Ind. captors in June 1722, is told in Penhallow's Hist. with admirab. brevity; but much dilated in verse, untutored as its subject, the heroic narrat. is contain. in Geneal. Reg. II. 271. ISAAC, Pemaquid, a serg. at the fort, drown. there, 28 Mar. 1695, was br. of Abraham, as by his nuncup. will declar. JOHN, Lynn, had John, b. 1642. * PETER, Windsor, perhaps s. of William of Lynn, may never have been of Dorchester, yet early at W. and possib. came with Rev. Ephraim, Huit, there m. 10 May 1641, Elizabeth whose surname is lost, had Elizabeth bapt. 19 June 1642, wh. d. at 13 yrs.; Mary, 18 Feb. 1644; and Peter, 5 Dec. 1647, rem. a. 1659 up the riv. and was one of the first sett. at Hadley, took the freeman's o. 26 Mar. 1661, and o. of alleg. 8 Feb. 1679; was deac. rep. for H. 1665, and most yrs. foll. exc. 1667, when he was ret. mem. for Chelmsford, chos.

I kn. only Elizabeth that m. 24 Dec. 1670, the third John Coggeshall. Perhaps it was his s. wh. was a solider with the rank of ensign, under capt. William Turner at the Falls fight in Philip's war, by the scrupulous keeper of the muster roll call. Timberleggs. TIMMINS, JOHN, Scarborough, unit. with many others in declar. 4 July 1663, unwilling to resist claim of jurisdict. by Mass. or by Patentees, but wish the k. to settle whom they belong to. TINGLEY, or TINGLE, PALMER, Ipswich 1639, is by Farmer nam. as a soldier in the Pequot war. SAMUEL, Malden, d. 28 Dec. 1666, leav. wid. Elizabeth by wh. he had Samuel, b. Feb. 1666; and Thomas, July 1667. His w. was d. of Thomas Call, and she next m. Daniel Shepardson the sec. TINKER, AMOS, Lyme 1688, s. of John of New London, had there m.

Alice had Sarah, b. 2 Jan. 1652, d. soon; Mary, 2 July 1653; freem. 1654; was one of the princ. sett. at Lancaster, there selectman 1655, and town clk. had John, 4 Aug. 1655; Amos, 28 Oct. 1657; rem. again to New London, where he was in good esteem, rep. 1660 and 1, had Samuel, 1 Apr. 1659; and Rhoda, 23 Feb. 1662; and he d. in Oct. foll. and the Gen.

THOMAS, Plymouth 1620, came in the Mayflower, with w. and a s. wh. all d. in the first winter. One Sarah T. join. the ch. at Scituate, 14 May 1637, but no more is heard of her. TINKHAM, EBENEZER, Middleborough, s. of the first Ephraim, m. bef. 1679, Elizabeth Liscom, was one of the first memb. of the ch. and deac. had Jermiah, and prob. others, and d. 8 Apr. 1718, and his w. it is said, d. the same day, aged 64. EPHRAIM, Plymouth 1643, apprent. of Timothy Hatherly, wh. had, July 1634, transfer. him to John Winslow, had gr. of ld.

EPHRAIM, Middleborough, s. of the preced. by w. Esther had Ephraim, and Isaac, perhaps more. He was constable 1681, and propound. for freem. 1682. TINNEY, JOHN, Scarborough, in 1658, own alleg. to Mass. as in Col. Rec. IV. part I. It may be Tenney. TIPPETT, HENRY, Wickford, in the disput. territ. of Rhode Island, claim, by Conn. made a constable 1670, by the latter power, tho. the right belong. to R. I. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. II. 138, 540, and 553. Humbly I would inq. if Mr. Trumbull, in the Index, making the name Tibbots or Tibbets, had high authority for the spelling, or had followed the similarity of Henry Tibbets in N. H. adher. to the Mass. jurisdict. I submit the conject. that the true spell. was Lippet; yet with so much less confidence, as the Wickford man's name is found by Judd to be Tipler. TIPPING, or TIPPEN, * BARTHOLOMEW, Exeter 1675, had commiss. from Mass. in Oct. 1676, to com. the forces in reestab. the sett. at Scarborough, in 1677 k. the famous Ind. ch. Mugg; in 1680 was rep.

Hannah had Gideon, b. 18 June 1689, prob. d. soon; Mary, 4 Oct. 1690; Gideon, again, 10 Apr. 1693; Miriam, 29 Sept. 1696; and perhaps more. JOHN, Milford, perhaps s. of Roger, was propound. for freem. 1669, and then a seaman, prob. liv. at New London, perhaps br. of William of the same, m. Sarah, d. of Isaac Willey, perhaps for sec. w. He had William and Mary, [[307]] bapt. 7 May 1671; and d. 27 Feb. 1712; and his wid. d. 7 Mar. foll. ROGER, Milford 1639, one of the orig. sett. had, no doubt, a fam. is in list of freem. 1669, and Lambert says, d. 1682. ROGER, Stratford, perhaps s. of the preced. had Abigail, bapt.

WILLIAM, a tailor of New London, 1662, as Caulkins says only trans. inhab. WILLIAM, Weymouth, s. of William of the same, by w. Abigail, had William, b. 4 Aug. 1683; Samuel, 17 Nov. 1686; Abigail, 22 Aug. 1689; and Gideon, 14 June 1694.

Prob. he had John and James, both of wh. may have been b. here. JOHN, call. jr. Taunton, m. 23 Nov. 1664, Hannah Rogers, of Duxbury, had Abigail, b. 15 July 1667; John, 10 Aug. 1669; Ann, 27 Jan. 1673; and Remember, 8 July 1675; was rep. 1674, says Baylies II. 71, k. by the Ind. 27 June next yr. as Winsor tells, but this was the f. and the mo.

Berks, had taken pass. in the Mary and John, from London, 24 Mar. 1634, but was casual. depriv. of the oportun. and came next mo. in the Hercules, m. Joanna, d. of the elder Richard Bartlett, wh. d. 28 June 1653, had Sarah, b. 22 June 1640; Hannah, 8 Jan.

TITE, HENRY, Boston 1655, m. 11 Feb. 1658, Sarah Walton, but I kn. no more of either. TITERTON, TITTERTON, or TYTTERTON, * DANIEL, was perhaps of Boston 1643, when the ar. co. list includes such a name, with Samuel instead of Daniel; but I suppose he rem. to Stratford bef. 1647; was rep. 1647, 49, 52 and 54; and d. 1661. His will pro. 6 July of that yr. names three s. Daniel, Timothy, and Samuel, of wh. Timothy is the only ch. whose b. is on rec. at S. and that was 25 Mar. 1651. To these he gives his est. and lds. in Eng. beside some in N. E. Three ds. also are ment. one. Wilcockson, perhaps the first w. of Timothy, and Mary, and Elizabeth unm. To these two L30 ea. beside L10 ea. for mar. dress. His w. Jane outliv. him. Perhaps two of the s. went home to enjoy est. there. DANIEL, Stratford, s. perhaps eldest, of the preced. b. in Eng. had Mary, b. 11 June 1676, and perhaps others bef. He was one of the sec. society of S. most of wh. rem. to Woodbury, but he did not; freem. 1669. TITUS, ABIEL, Newtown, L. I. was s. of Robert. JOHN, Rehoboth, s. of Robert, b. in Eng. came with his f. perhaps m. a d. of William Carpenter of the same, wh. in his will of Dec. 1659, makes bequest to his s. But JOHN, Rehoboth, wh. m. 17 July 1673, Lydia Redway, had Lydia, b. 1674, may be s. of preced. and his w. was bur. at R. 25 Nov. 1676. He m. sec. w. 3 July foll.

Content, 28 Mar. 1643; rem. to Rehoboth next yr. [[309]] may have had other ch. aft. or bef. was rep. 1648, 9, and 50. SAMUEL, Newtown, L. I. 1644, favor, Conn. jurisdict. and the name is much diffus. SILAS, Rehoboth, had Silas, b. 12 Aug. perhaps 1679; Mary, 30 Mar. 1681. Sometimes it is writ. Tytus. TOBEY, FRANCIS, in Mass. was fin. 1635, for something slight, L10, but three yrs. aft. it was remit. JAMES, k. by the Ind. at Kittery 1705. STEPHEN, perhaps of Portsmouth, N.

TODD, CHRISTOPHER, New Haven, was one of the orig. sett. 1639, a propr. 1685, and d. next yr. had John, bapt.

I wish the ch. rec. had been as accurate as that of the town. His will of 25 Mar. 1686, names all the ch. but Mary, w. of Isaac Turner was dec. Grace had m. Richard Mattock, wh. desert. her; and Mercy m. a Basset, prob. John. * JOHN, Charlestown 1637, was, I think, one of the early sett. at Rowley, of which he was rep. 1664, and 86; by w.

He was propound. for freem. 1670; and propr. 1685; JOHN, Rowley, s. of John of the same, m. Elizabeth Broclebank, perhaps d. of capt. Samuel, had John, b. 1688; Samuel, 1693; Thomas, 1701; and Joseph, 1704; beside three ds.

TOE, SAMUEL, Newtown, L. I. 1656, is by me suspected to be the same as Coe, in the old writing the cap. T. and C. were so much alike. TOKER, or TOKERS, SAMUEL, Southampton 1673. TOLL. See Towle.

Thomas, bef. and perhaps also Sarah and Mary; beside John, perhaps, and Ruth and Rebecca, certain, after. He had also sec. w. Sarah; and d. 8 June 1690.

TOMLINSON, AGUR, Stratford, s. of Henry of the same, m. 13 Dec. 1681, Elizabeth d. of Jeremiah Judson.

His will of the day bef. ment. that Margaret had m. Jabez Hardier; Mary was w. of a Pierson; Tabitha, w. of Edward Woster; Phebe, w. of ano.

TOMLYNS, THOMLINS, or TOMLINS, BENJAMIN, prob. at Lynn, came in the Susan and Ellen, 1635, aged 18, from London, with ano. Edward, 30, from wh. I infer that they were brs. and likely to be a s. of either the first Edward or his br. * EDWARD, Lynn 1630, came, no doubt, in the fleet with Winthrop and was adm. freem. 18 May 1631, was rep. at the first Gen.

MICAH, or MICHAEL, Wethersfield, rem. to Milford 1639, and Lambert says he d. 1649; but of that I find cause to doubt, for in Trumbull's Col. Rec. II. 513, may be seen verificat. in 1661 and 5 by Michael T. of Milford, wh. must be thot. the same person, as only one with this prefix is ment. for a long course of yrs. He rem. with a great comp. of friends to New Jersey, 1666, and July 1667 bot. large tract from Ind. on the Passaic riv. where now is the city of Newark. See Whitehead, 42, 3. By w. Mary he had at M. Jonathan, and Mary, both b apt. 17 Dec. 1643, soon aft. he and his w. had join the ch.; Elizabeth Feb. 1645; David, 1647, d. at 2 yrs. by casual.; Seth, 1649; Rebecca, b. 2 Nov. 1653; Abigail, 1655; Micah, bapt. at New Haven, 27 Nov. 1659. NATHANIEL, Newport 1675, tempor. resid. at Boston, a merch. in 1681; may be the same wh. was of East Chester sev. yrs. bef. but for perman. liv. at N. where by w. Elizabeth he had Nathaniel, b. 31 Dec. 1676, perhaps d. very soon; Mary, 16 Sept. 1677, d. young; Priscilla, 24 May 1679; Samuel, 11 May 1681; and Mary, again, 20 Oct. 1685. RALPH, Dorchester, freem. 2 May 1638, rem. a. 1647 to Salem, there d. prob. in 1666, as his inv. is of 12 Nov. of that yr. SAMUEL, Duxbury 1640, had m. 1639, Lettice Foster, prob. sis. of Edward of Scituate, one of the grantees of Bridgewater 1645, was perhaps s. of Ralph. [[312]] TOMPSON. See Thompson. TONGUE, GEORGE, New London, by w. Margery had Elizabeth b. 20 Oct. 1652; Hannah, 20 July 1654; Mary, 17 Sept. 1656; and George, 8 May 1658; kept the inn, had good est. and d. 1674. His d.

Mary, wh. d. 24 Apr. 1700, had Deborah, b. 8 July 1687; Mary, 24 July 1689; Joanna, 28 Dec. 1691, d. soon; Sarah, 11 Feb. 1694; and Stephen, 9 Dec. 1696. TONY, JOHN, one of the early sett. at Reading, d. says Eaton, 1691. TOOGOOD, TOWGOOD, or TWOGOOD, JOHN, a serv. of Thomas Marshfield, wh. had a. 1640, run away from his master at Springfield. JOHN, and JOHN, jr. were soldiers in GallopÕs comp. 1690. NATHANIEL, Swanzey, 1669, rem. to Boston, by w. Elizabeth had John, there b. 20 Apr. 1679; and Elizabeth 25 July 1682. THOMAS, of wh. good story is relat. by Niles in his Hist. of Indian Wars in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VI. TOOKEY, or TUKEY, JOB, Beverly, charg. in 1692 with witchcraft. JOHN, Charlestown, d. aft. 1665, his will of 16 Aug. in that yr. pro. 2 Mar. 1668, leaves us to inf. that he had neither w. nor ch. as he names only his master William Batchelder, and his dame wid. Bridget Wines. TOOLLY, TOLLY, or TOOLEY, CHRISTOPHER, Killingworth, by w. Elizabeth had Agnes, b. 1684; Judith, 1687; Andrew, 1690; Christopher and Elizabeth tw. 1692; William, 1694; John, 1697; Mary, 1700; Joanna, 1702; and Esther, 1705. The name may have passed into Tully. EDMUND, New Haven, 1644, d. 19 Apr. 1685, without w. or ch. prob. unm. certain. poor. THOMAS, Newport 1651, in the list of freem. 1655, may be the man wh. at Lynn had Thomas, b. 3 Aug. 1665. TOOTHACKER, TOOTHACRE, or TOOTHAKER, ROGER, came in the Hopewell, capt. Babb, from London 1635, aged 23, with his w. Margaret, and s. Roger, 1 yr. d. early, and it is not kn. where he sat down, but in 1638, his wid. m. Ralph Hill of Woburn, wh. soon aft. 1653 rem. to Billerica, and d. 1663, in his will of 10 Nov. 1662, nam. his w. Margaret, and her son Roger Toothaker. She liv. to 22 Dec. 1683, ROGER, Billerica, s. of the preced. had Roger, wh. also had Roger, and all were, says Farmer, physicians. In May 1692, one Roger, of Billerica, prob. this yearling of 1635, was arrest. for witchcr. and he may have been guilty of perform. some unexpect. cure, clear. show. diabolic. aid. TOPLIFFE, CLEMENT, Dorchester 1636, by w. Sarah had Jonathan, b. Apr. 1637; Sarah, May 1639; Obedience, Oct. 1642; Samuel, 7 May 1646; and Patience. He was b. it is said 17 Nov. 1603, freem. 13 May 1640, when the name is writ. Tapley, and d. 24 Dec. 1672, says the valu. acco. in Geneal. Reg. V. 466, but it strangely contradicts itself in counting that date as his 69th instead of 70th yr. His wid. d. 29 July 1693, aged 88, or as that acco. has it in her 88th yr. Sarah m. 11 May 1659 David Jones; Obedience m. 20 Feb. 1660, David [[313]] Copp; and Patience m. 27 Mar. 1667, Nathaniel Homes. Sometimes it was writ. Tapliff by wh. prob. came the error of Tapley. SAMUEL, Dorchester, s. of the preced. freem. 1673, by w. Patience had Mehitable, b. 29 Aug. 1673, d. soon; Samuel, 19 Aug. 1675, d. at 19 yrs.; Patience, 24 Jan. 1677; Thankful, 22 Feb. 1679; Jonathan, 23 Sept. 1682, d. at 18 yrs.; Waitstill, 6 Nov. 1684; Joseph, 24 Apr. 1687; Ebenezer, 14 Feb. 1689, d. at 32 yrs.; Nathaniel, 7 Sept. 1692; Samuel, 30 May 1695; and Sarah, 4 Nov. 1698; was deac. 9 yrs. and rul. elder 21 yrs. aft d. 10 or 12 Oct. 1722, and his wid. d. 8 Sept. 1728, in her 76th yr. and one acco. says aged 76. TOPPAN, or TOPPING. See Tappan. TORREY or TORIE, JAMES, Scituate, lieut. in 1640, m. 2 Nov. 1643, Ann, d. of Elder William Hatch, had James, b. 3 Sept. 1644; William, 15 Mar. 1647, prob. d. young; Joseph, 18 Mar. 1649; Damaris, 26 Oct. 1651; Jonathan, 20 Sept. 1654; Mary, 14 Feb. 1657; Josiah, 1658; Sarah, 9 Feb. 1661; Joanna, 4 May 1663; and Bethia, posthum. 1665. What was the day of his d. is unkn. JAMES, Scituate, eldest ch. of the preced. m. 1666, Lydia, only d. of William Wills or Willis, as Deane shows, but of issue says nothing, and had sec. w. m. 1679, Eliz, d. of Nathaniel Rawlins; and he had ano. w. or perhaps it was the same, wh. in Dorchester gr.yard by the name of Eunice, wid. of deac. James, d. there 15 Oct. 1732, in her 72d yr. wh. agrees with the age of the d. of Rawlins JONATHAN, Weymouth, prob. s. of William the first, by w. Ruth, d. of George Fry of the same, had Mary, b. 25 Sept. 1675; Ruth, 17 Aug. 1679; Ann, 3 Mar. 1682; Jonathan, 24 May 1684; Joshua, 11 Nov. 1690; and perhaps others, where the rec. is defect. JOSEPH, Rehoboth 1643, went to Newport in 1654 or earlier, was on the freemen's list 1655; with an assoc. met Dennison and Danforth, Mass. Comsnrs. in 1664 at Rehoboth, a. some quest. of jurisdict. was a lieut. and in 1670 sent with John Greene and others as comsnrs. to adjust bounds with Conn. rul. elder of the ch. of John Clark, at the time of his d. 1676. Perhaps he m. a d. wh. may have been the eldest, of that John Greene, as by the Geneal. I have seen. JOSIAH, Medfield, freem. 1683, was perhaps, s. of James the first of Scituate. MICAJAH, Weymouth, s. of the first William of the same, freem. 1672, by w. Susanna had Micajah, b. 27 July 1673; Mary, 22 Mar. 1681; Susanna, wh. d. 29 Oct. 1687; Samuel, 15 Jan. 1688; and perhaps others, not found on imperf. rec. PHILIP, Roxbury, from Combe St. Nicholas, Co. Somerset, near Chard, in the edge of Devon, was freem. 1644, m. 1 Oct. 1647, Mary, wid. of John Scarborough, had Joseph, b. 2, bapt. 15 July 1649; Jonathan, 16, bapt. 22 June 1651; and Mary, 2, bapt. 9 Apr. 1654; and d. a. 12 May 1686. In Mar. 1674, aged 59, he testif. that he came [[314]] with William and his s. Samuel to N. E. from Combe St. Nicholas in Somersetsh. that he kn. them bef. and ever since; and George Fry unit. in the fame. testim. SAMUEL, Weymouth, eldest s. of William of the same, was brot. in early youth, 1640, by his f. with Philip, perhaps his uncle, perhaps a cousin, and tho. pass. thro. the first prescrib. course of study for three yrs. would have tak. his A. B. in 1650, yet bec. the term was lengthen. to 4 yrs. he and others, as Dr. Eliot in Biog. Dict. tells, left the Coll. His f. had giv. him the first classic. preparat. and he had so improv. his opportun. that he had great reput. as a min. and was ord. 14 Feb. 1665, to succeed Thomas Thatcher, hav. preach. some yrs. at Hull. He preach. the elect, serm. 1674, again in 1683, again 1695, an honor in no other instance confer. in Mass. and was so highly esteem. for his discret. as to be chos. Presid. of the Coll. in 1681, aft. the d. of Oakes, and again, aft. d. of Rogers; but in his Hist. of H. C. notice of these things by Mather is not found. However, it seems that the Gen. Ct. Rec. V. 345, gave him the same encouragem. to accept. as they had offer. to Increase Mather. Both applicat. were in vain. He m. 15 May 1657, Mary, d. of Edward Rawson, when he liv. at Hull, and for sec. w. 30 July 1695, Mary, wid. of William Symmes, tho. what was her maiden name is undiscov. Nor is my kn. any better as to childr. or whether he had any. He was freem. 1669, and hav. preach. above 50 yrs. d. 21 Apr. 1707, aged 75. I suppose in 1703 he rec. a collea. in Rev. James Bailey. See 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. IX. 195. * WILLIAM, Weymouth 1640, came that yr. from Combe St. Nicholas, close to Chard, in Co. Somerset, bring. s. Samuel, and accomp. by George Fry and Philip T. wh. may have been his br. or near relat. here soon found a sec. w. if as to me seems prob. the mo. of Samuel were d. had Naomi, b. 3 Dec. 1641; Mary, 3 Dec. 1642; Micajah, 12 Oct. 1643, unless as is very prob. there be error in the rec. print. in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 349. By the fail. of rec. in a long interval, we lose perhaps half a dozen other ch. certain. William and Jonathan. He was adm. freem. 18 May 1642, rep. 1642, and very oft. aft. even 1679-83, and aft. overthrow of Andros in 1690, was only lieut. and later capt. chos. clk. of the house of reps. 1650, and usual. aft. hav. as Johnson says, special qualificat. in that office. His will of 15 May 1686, nam. eldest s. Samuel, and the others, William, Micajah, Josiah, and Angel, was pro. July 1691. WILLIAM, Weymouth, sec. s. of the preced. freem. 1672, by w. Deborah had William, b. 14 Sept. 1670; John, 23 June 1673; Philip, 2 May 1681; Josiah, 19 Sept. 1686, and perhaps others omit. from the rec. Farmer marks nineteen of this name as gr. in 1834, at N. E. coll. of wh. ten are seen at Harv. includ. one Torry and one at Yale. TOTENHAM, ELIJAH, Woburn, s. of Henry of the same, by w. Mary [[315]] had Ann, b. 24 Sept. 1685; Mary, 18 Apr. 1688; Sarah, 13 July 1690; Elisha, 22 July 1696; Elizabeth 8 Feb. 1699; Alice, 10 June 1701; Arminell, 30 July 1707; and by w. Rebecca, had Rebecca, 4 Aug. 1710. HENRY, Woburn, had Nehemiah, b. 23 Aug. 1646; Elijah, 28 Feb. 1652; and his w. Ann d. 23 Feb. 1654; and he m. 13 July foll. w. Alice, but had no ch. by her. He was one of the bold petitnrs. for liberty of prophecy, 30 Aug. 1653. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 44. TOTMAN, STEPHEN, Scituate, s. of Thomas, had Stephen, and Samuel; but from Deane I learn no more. THOMAS, Plymouth, rem. to Scituate bef. 1660, and had Stephen. TOUCHWILL, JOSEPH, is the name of a soldier in capt. Mosely's comp. on March in Dec. 1675, to the great Narraganset fight; but how much is may be distort. on the roster in uncert. TOUNG, or TONG, GEORGE, New London, 1656-72, kept the ordinary. JAMES, Boston, master-mariner, m. 8 Sept. 1654, Elizabeth d. of Abraham Hagborne, and d. at Jamaica next yr. in his will giv. al his prop. to w. wh. took admin. 17 July 1656. TOURTELLOT, or TOURTELOT, ABRAHAM, Boston, a Huguenot merch. was partner with his br. BENJAMIN, wh. d. 15 Sept. 1687, on a voyage from London to B. in the Friendship; and he act. as Admor. on the est. by the inv. of wh. consist. in part of merchandise, it is inf. that they had carr. on trade extensive. He liv. at Roxbury, some yrs. aft. there by w. Mary had Gabriel, b. 24 Sept. 1694; and Esther, 12 June 1696. GABRIEL, Boston, perhaps br. of the preced. was b. at Bordeaux in France, as is relat. but came from Rochelle in comp. with Gabriel Bernon, whose d. Mary he m. and it is said he d. at sea. But that he had ch. is kn. by many descend. Prob. the fam. rem. to Oxford, as in that vicin. the name is still perpet. TOUSLAND, TOUSLEY, TOWSE, or TOUSEY, RICHARD, Saybrook, perhaps had a w. and fam. bef. 1666, but in this yr. made contr. of m. with Dorothy, wid. of John Edwards, wh. had been wid. of Abraham Finch, of Wethersfield, d. early in Feb. 1674, giv. back to his w. the prop. she brot. him. THOMAS, Wethersfield, perhaps s. of the preced. by a first w. did not live at W. bef. 1674, was a weaver, an enterpris. man, had in comp. with William Pitkin, a fulling-mill in Hartford; d. 1712, aged 62; had Thomas, Y. C. 1707, ancest. of the late Secr. of the Navy, beside Elizabeth TOUTE, RICHARD, Scituate 1643, then able to bear arms, but no more is heard of him, exc. that in 1663, he was of Boston, a lighterman. TOUTON, JOHN, a Huguenot physician of Rochelle in France, with others petition. our Gen. Ct. as early as 1662, for permiss. to rem. higher; and their prayer was gr. but whether any other than came is not appar. He liv. at Rehoboth, July 1675. [[316]] TOWER, or TOWERS, DAVID, Hingham, perhaps s. of John, more prop. his gr.s. perish. in the doleful exped. of Phips against Quebec, 1690, but as he d. of smallpox, I conclude it occurr. as did many others, bef. the squadron left our harbor. JEREMIAH, Salisbury, perhaps s. of John of Hingham, m. Elizabeth d. of Richard Goodale. JOHN, Hingham 1637, came from Hingham in Co. Norf. it is said, freem. 13 Mar. 1639, m. Feb. preced. or foll. Margaret Ibrook, d. prob. of Richard, had Ambrose, Benjamin, b. 5 Nov. 1654m Jonathan, Hannah, and Jeremiah; but perhaps he had s. John, at least we kn. that he was describ. as John sen. He was engag. in early plant. at Lancaster, 1654, and descend, are very num. WILLIAM, Boston 1668, a butcher. TOWLE, TOWEL, TOALE, TOLE, TOLL, TOULE, or TOWELL, HENRY, Wethersfield, rem. to Saybrook soon aft. 1668, had w. Sarah, and one ch. prob. Henry, desert. his w. wh. in 1676 was divorc. for his desert. above six yrs. as in Trumbull's Col. Rec. II. 293, with liberty if shall "have opportun. to join hers. in m. with ano. man."

PHILIP, Hampton 1670, had prob. been an early sett. for PHILIP jr. took the o. of alleg. 1678, some mos. bef. his f. wh. d. 1696. ROGER, Boston 1640, in Col. Rec. is call. serv. to Mr. Henry Webb, wh. means, I suppose, appr. was freem. 1644, hav. been adm. of the ch. with the same designat. 20 Apr. preced. WILLIAM, Malden, by w. Mary, had Benjamin, b. 2 Nov. 1689, or Jan. 1690; for the person wh. made the copy of the rec. chang. the dates for Geneal. Reg. VI. 335, in most cases by mistaking the numeral for the mo.

T. is then call. serv. so that we may well infer, that he came early that yr. from London. The simplicity of charact. was exhitib. in the puritan's household, and this stile of serv. did not imply inferior condit. so much as obligat. to learn, otherwise, in case of males, term apprent.

WILLIAM, is the first name on the list of passeng. in the Mary and John, wh. took o. of alleg. 24 Mar. 1634, and as so many of his compan. over the ocean sat down at Newbury aft. tempor. resid. at Ipswich, we may be justif. in think. that he did so; and possib. he is ancestor of those wh. gave high distinct. to this name near a century ago in that place. Farmer marks in 1834, that nine of this name had been gr. at Yale, three at Harv. and eight at other N. E. coll. most at Dart. TRAFTON, THOMAS, York, sw. alleg. to Charles II. 22 Mar. 1681.

His wid. d. 17 Sept. 1760, in 68th yr. MATTHEW, or MATTHIAS, Middletown, the freem. of 1657, may have been br. of James, certain. call. serv. of Richard of Wethersfield, 1645, or soon aft. m. at W. 1648, Mary, d. of the first Richard Smith of the same, had Henry, b. 1649; Susanna, 1651; Richard, 1655; Elizabeth 1657; Abigail, 1659, wh. m. 1683, Stephen Hollister; and Dorcas, 1661; and he d. 1662. His wid. m. Anthony Wright. * RICHARD, Wethersfield, is one of the very few early sett. whom we can find no trace of in Mass. where he may have been a serv. or apprent. yet it is said that he was a rep. in the first Gen. Ct. 1637, tho. that is not prob. for in Trumbull's Col. rec. I find not his name in that relat. was chos. an Assist. 1658 to 65, but not after the union with New Haven in that yr. He was nam. in the Royal Chart. of 23 Apr. 1662, for junct. of the two Cols. and rem. to Milford, only, I suppose, to estab. his s. Robert at that settlem. for he is counted on the list of freem. at W. 1669. In this yr. he d. hav. made his will of 13 Feb. of the same. names without suffic. particular. of the ds. his w. Alice and ch. perhaps all b. in Eng. Richard; Robert, b. a. 1622; James, a. 1634; Honor, m. a. 1637, John Deming the first; Joanna, w. of John Hollister; Sarah, m. a. 1644, Matthew Campfield; Susanna, m. a. 1652, Robert Webster of Middletown; and one, Catharine, wh. m. 19 Nov. 1655, William Thompson of New Haven, tho. by Chapin, Glastonbury, 185, the name is giv. Johnson, who. may have been sec. h. beside cous. Samuel Wells; and gr.s. call. cous. Daniel Deming. His wid. was not the mo. of the childr. it is suppos. bec. he is said to have brot. from Eng. w. Joanna. RICHARD, Wethersfield, eldest s. of the preced. b. in Eng. is in the list of freem. of W. 1669, as well as his f. but we may judge that each had been so twenty yrs. or more; by w. Sarah, d. of Thomas Coleman, had Richard, b. 14 Feb. 1663; Sarah, 8 June 1664; Mary, 8 Oct. 1666; and Thomas, 12 Dec. 1668; was one of the three corporals of the first troop of horse, 1658. His wid. d. 23 Aug. 1734. Sarah m. 20 May [[327]] 1684, Ephraim Goodrich; and Mary m. 10 Dec. 1684, Thomas, Chester, both of W. RICHARD, Wethersfield, s. of James, first of the same, m. 23 Nov. 1704, Catharine, d. of Rev. Gershom Bulkley, had only Catharine, b. 26 Aug. 1706; and d. 7 May 1713. * ROBERT, Milford, s. of the first Richard, b. in Eng. had liv. with his f. at Wethersfield, and was not, as oft. said, an early sett. at M. certain. not bef. 1647, was an Assist. of the New Haven Col. 1659, wh. rank of course, was not contin. aft. the union with Conn. where, tho. on withdraw. of his f. from that office in the older Col. 1665, he was put in nominat. but did not gain the honor until 1673, yet had the compliments of being a capt. and rep. under the new admin. in Philip's war, was command.-in-chief, and in 1676, when Leete was chos. Gov. aft. d. of Winthrop, he was made Dept. Gov. was oft. a commissnr. of the Unit. Col. of N. E. and aft. d. of Leete 1683, succeed, him as Gov. By the royal constitution of Sir Edmund Andros, to be head of all the Northern provinces, T. was nam. one of his council, and tho. he did not resist, but acquiesced, he was hailed Gov. on the overthr. In that place he serv. 15 yrs. retir. from old age, and d. 12 July 1710, aged 88. Lambert marks his d. 1712. He had two ws. Jane, only d. of Edmund Tapp, wh. d. 8 Apr. 1703; and he m. 22 Oct. 1705, a wid. Elizabeth Bryan, wh. d. 10 Jan. 1706. It is said he had 21 ch. (and very glad should I be to prove above half of the tradit. num.) but ten only have been heard of by me; viz. Samuel, bapt. 3 Sept. 1648, H. C. 1669; John, 20 Oct. 1650; Mary, 23 May, not 28 (as my correspond. writes), 1652, bec. this was Friday, and ch. in our country, without except. in that age, were bapt. on Sunday only; Robert, b. 14 Aug. 1654; Sarah, 9 Oct. 1656; Hannah, 1 Jan. 1660, wh. m. Rev. Samuel Mather of Windsor; Joseph, a. 1662; Abigail, wh. m. Rev. Samuel Andrew of Milford; beside Jane, and Ann, wh. d. bef. their f. If any respect for tradit. would solicit explana. of its giv. twenty-one ch. to the Gov. it may be guessed to have sprung from the fact, that his ch. add. to the ten of the first w. of s. Samuel made up the desired number. Being above 83 yrs. old, when he took his sec. w. none by her was expect. Very observa. is it that in Goodwin's Geneal. Notes, 229, after the heading, "Descend, in the line of Robert," not one is giv. wh. must be regard. as a misfortune attending Goodwin's bef. one eighth of the vol. was print. for he was not the man to be frightened by such a mythical host. On p. 328 the list that was intend. to be insert. and may perhaps now seem imperfect, is found, and some error is seen, if the Milford rec. be correct. The Gov. in his will of 5 Jan. 1708, names only these seven ch. Samuel, John, Mary, Robert, Hannah, Joseph, and Abigail. No doubt the other three were d. and prob. the date of Abigail's b. in Goodwin is wrong. SALMON, Preston, s. of the [[328]] first James, ord. the first min. at that place, 16 Nov. 1698, had m. 28 Apr. preced. Dorothy, d. of Rev. James Noyes of Stonington; had Ann, b. 26 Aug. 1699; James, 29 Nov. 1700; Dorothy, 9 Feb. 1702; Jerusha, 21 Nov. 1704; Prudence, 23 Nov. 1706; Sarah, 19 Sept. 1708; and Rebecca, 29 June 1710; resign. his charge, Mar. 1744, and d. 1746. This name in Mather's Hecatompolis is print. Tread. SAMUEL, Eastham, eldest s. of Gov.

Samuel Willard of Boston, wh. d. 27 Dec. 1746, had Eunice, 27 Sept. 1704; and Robert, 21 Jan. 1707; and d. 18 Mar. 1717, aged 69. THOMAS, Glastenbury, s. of the sec.

He was a lieut. and engag. in promot. separat. from Wethersfield of the new town. He d. 17 Feb. 1713; and his wid. d. 1757. In 1837 the gr. at Yale counted eight, at Harv. four. TREBY, TREBIE, or TRIBBY, JOHN, Marblehead 1668-74, had w. Mary, wh. took admin. of his est. Nov. 1675. PETER, New London, 1667, of wh. Caulkins tells no more. TREE, RICHARD, Lynn, m. 21 Sept. 1669, Joanna Rogers. TREFETHEN, HENRY, New Hampsh. serv. on gr. jury 1687. TREFREY, TREFREY, TURFREY or TURFREE, * GEORGE, York, must have been a high patriot, for he was chos. rep. 1692. John, Boston, was assoc. somehow with the unpopular. of Gov. Andros, for he was seized by the people wh. imprison. Sir Edmund 1689. THOMAS, Marblehead 1674. This name, I think, in geneal. Reg. VIII. 288, belongs to the same man ment. in Gen. Reg.

The newspaper of that yr. ment. that the h. and w. liv. together near sixty-six and a half yrs. No offspring is told of. Of the tendency to exagger. age, his gr.st. is an example, mak. him in 91st yr. when he was nine mos. short of 90.

TREVORE, or TREVOUR, WILLIAM, Plymouth, came in the Mayflower 1620, not as a perman. sett. but a hired mariner, not for the ship, but for the serv. of the comp. aft. her ret. to Eng. and for a single yr. He went [[330]] home next yr. in the Fortune; and may have been a navigator in command of a sh. to our shore in 1632. He was here in Apr. 1650 [see Geneal. Reg.

ZECHARY, Dover, s. of Thomas, was call. sen. 1709, so that he may have had s. Zechary. This name is frequent in that neighborhood.

JOHN, Dorchester, s. of Thomas of the same, liv. at Milton, m. 20 Dec. 1703, Deliverence, wid. of Joseph Withington. MATTHIAS, defdt. in a suit 1646, but in my opinin is just as likely to mean Treat. RICHARD, Wethersfield 1642, and thenceforward this surname occurs so oft. especial. on the gr. jury 1643, and as rep. every single yr. fr. 1644 to 1658, but without the baptismal prefix, in Trumbull's Col. Rec. perhaps in 50 or 60 places, when Richard Treat is found so seldom, that I doubt not this may be freq. substitut. SAMUEL, Dorchester, s. of the first Thomas, d. 3 Aug. 1724.

TROUT, WILLIAM, sw. fidel. to Mass. at Pemaquid, 1674. TROW, HENRY, Ipswich, or more prob. Salisbury, freem. 1676. I think this name may have bec. True, and was, perhaps at first, Trew.

John Greenwood; Deliverance m. Eleazer Ward; and Experience m. Samuel Wilson. JAMES, New Haven, third s. of William the first, a propr. 1685, m. 8 Nov. 1688, Lydia, d. of the first Joseph Alsop, had James b. 13 Sept. 1689; and he m. a sec. w. 29 Sept. 1692, Esther How, youngest d. of Ephraim. JAMES, Newton, s. of James of the same, m. 6 Jan. [[333]] 1709, Hannah Bacon, had Margaret, b. 29 Oct. foll.; Daniel, 6 Apr. 1711; and by sec. w.

William, had John b. 2 Mar. 1684; and Ann, 20 July 1688; was a propr. 1685; and d. June 1689. His wid. m. 1696, Ebenezer Collins. JOHN, Newton, eldest s. of James the first, m. for his sec. w. the first being not kn. 27 Feb. 1708, Sarah, d. of Joseph Wilson, had Jonathan, b. 23 July 1711, was selectman, and d. 1737. SAMUEL, New Haven, fourth s. of William the first, by w. Sarah had Samuel, Hannah, Elizabeth and Sarah. THOMAS, New Haven 1640, had, says tradit. first sat down at Dorchester, coming from Taunton, in Co. Somerset, a. 1637, but was prosecut. voyages to and from Barbadoes. I think he was of Combe St. Nicholas, only a. 10 or 12 ms. S. E. from Taunton, near the bordiers of Devon. More reasona. import. is ano. pt. of the tradit. that he brot. three s. Thomas, assumed to have been b. 1632; William, a. 1634; and James, bef. ment. whether he was ever resid. in Dorchester is uncert. but a. 1644, he went home, leav. his boys to the care of serg. Thomas Jeffreys, and his prop. to be manag. by Henry Gibbons, from wh. aft. 20 yrs. it was not easy to obt. acco. He never came back, and d. at or near, Taunton 7 Feb. 1672. THOMAS, New Haven, eldest s. of the preced. b. in Eng. was propound. for freem. 1668, and is found in the list next yr. made commissary for the expedit. 1673 against the Dutch, and much esteem. in 1675 and 6; m. 24 June 1657, Sarah, wid. of Henry Rutherford; had Sarah, b. 7 Nov. 1658, d. at 17 yrs.; John, 23 Nov. 1661; Thomas, 14 Feb. 1664; Lydia, 7 June, 1666; Caleb, 28 Oct. 1670; Daniel, 5 Jan. 1673; Elizabeth 30 June 1676; and Sarah, 24 Sept. 1680, d. at 10 yrs. His w. d. 22 Aug. 1687, and he m. 2 Apr. 1689, Hannah, wid. of Eliphalet Ball, d. of John Nash, had Hannah, 30 Mar. 1690; and he d. 22 Aug. 1702. His wid. d. 3 Feb. 1708. Lydia m. 22 Dec. 1681, Richard Roswell; Elizabeth m. 1 Apr. 1691, John Hodgson; and Hannah m. 30 Jan. 1710, Joseph Whiting. THOMAS, New Haven, s. of the first William, m. 26 May 1684, Abigail Beardsley, had Abigail, b. 8 Apr. 1695; Lydia, 16 Dec. 1697; William, 14 Apr. 1700; Ebenezer, 25 July 1702; and Elizabeth 23 Apr. 1705. THOMAS, New Haven, s. of Thomas the sec. m. 16 Oct. 1685, Mary, d. of John Winston, had Sarah, b. 26 Nov. 1686; Stephen, 7 Sept. 1688; Mary, 9 Apr. 1691; Elizabeth 29 Mar. 1693; Thomas 20 Dec. 1695; Joseph, 1 Apr. 1699; and Daniel, 25 Oct. 1703; and d. 15 Sept. 1711. His wid. d. 15 Sept. 1742. THOMAS, Newton, s. of James the first, had John by a first w. as only ch. and he next m. 3 Mar. 1709, Mary Goffe of Cambridge, perhaps d. of Samuel, had Edmund, b. 1709, H. C. 1728, the learned Judge; Lydia, 1710; [[334]] and Mary, 1712; and he took third w. Susanna, 7 Jan. 1715, rem. to New London, there d. 1724. Lydia m. 31 Jan. 1737, Richard Dana, f. of the late Francis, H. C. 1762, Ch. J. of Mass. so that his s. and gr.s. were in two generat. one in the last preced. the war of Independ. and the other at the beginning of the nineteenth century, our luminaries of the common law. WILLIAM, New Haven, s. of Thomas the first, b. in Eng. m. 9 Mar. 1657, Elizabeth Selivant, wid. of Daniel, d. of Capt; George Lamberton, had William, b. 12 Nov. foll.; Thomas, 2 Oct. 1659; Elizabeth 5 Jan. 1662; James, 26 Mar. 1664; Margaret, 1 June 1666; Hannah, 6 July 1663; Abigail, and Samuel, tw. 7 Oct. 1670; Mary, 12 Oct. 1672; and Joseph, 1676; was propound. for freem. 1669, and d. Nov. 1690. The ten ch. were liv. in 1691. Elizabeth m. 28 May 1678, Peter Mallory; Margaret m. a Goodwin; and Hannah m. a Jackson. WILLIAM, New Haven, eldest s. of the preced. m. Thankful, d. of Rev. Samuel Stow of Middletown, had Thankful, b. 25 Sept. 1687; Experience, 25 May 1690; and Abigail, 4 Nov. 1693, d. soon. WILLIAM, Newton, s. of James the first, m. 14 Dec. 1708, Sarah, of John Ward, had Mary, b. 18 Sept. 1709; William, 2 Feb. 1711, d. soon; Huldah, 13 Feb. 1712, d. soon; William, again, 13 Oct. 1713, d. soon; Huldah, 23 Mar. 1615, d. soon; James, 21 Apr. 1717; tw. ds. 1720 d. bef. b. prob. with their mo. By sec. w. m. 30 May 1721, Sarah, d. of Francis Fullam, he had Sarah, 9 Mar. 1722; Margaret, 16 Apr. 1724; Bethia, 29 Aug. 1726; Thaddeus, 28 Nov. 1628; Abigail, 12 Oct. 1732, d. young; was selectman, lieut. and d. 19 Nov. 1744. Farmer, MS. notes that in 1834, two of this name had been gr. at Harv. two at Yale; but very curious is the fact that rec. of town and ch. at Haddam where one branch of the surname spread, both give it Strawbridge. TRUANT, or TROUANT, JOSEPH, perhaps s. of Maurice, Marshfield, m. 6 Jan. 1675, was drown. on enter. Plymouth harbor, a. 23 Feb. 1684. MAURICE, Duxbury 1643, had possib. first been at Watertown, and in 1631, was fin. for stealing pig's meat of Ralph Glover; perhaps only a youthful peccadillo; in few yrs. rem. to Marshfield. there had fam. of wh. I think, were Joseph; perhaps Hannah, wh. m. 11 Jan. 1682, Jonathan Eames; and also Mehitable, wh. m. 3 Sept. 1691, John Daggett; and he d. 21 Apr. 1685. TRUE, HENRY, Salem 1644, had John, bapt. 13 July 1645; Mary, 14 Mar. 1647; Lydia, 4 Feb. 1649; Joseph, 8 Feb. 1652; Benjamin, 19 Feb. 1654; Jemima, 26. Apr. 1657. His w. was Israel, d. of John Pike, unless the books have mistak. her name; and he rem. prob. to Salisbury; was freem. of 1676, spell. Trew, and read Trow. HENRY, Salisbury, s. of the preced. m. 15, or 16 by ano. rec. Mar. 1668, Jane, d. of Thomas Bradbury, had Mary, b. 30 May 1668, if the Gen. Reg. VIII. [[335]] 233, be correct. wh. is not prob.; William, June 1670; Henry, 6 Jan. 1674; Jane, 5 Dec. 1676; John, 23 Feb. 1679; Jemima, 16 Mar. 1681; and Jabez, 19 Feb. 1683. He was rep. 1689. JOSEPH, Salisbury, br. of the preced. m. 20 Apr. 1675, Ruth Whittier, perhaps d. of Thomas, had Joseph, b. 9 Jan. 1676, prob. d. young; John, 18 Aug. 1677 d. in 4 mos.; Joseph, again, 4 Mar. 1679; Ruth, 5 Oct. 1683; Israel, whether male or fem. I kn. not, 14 Dec. 1687; and Benjamin, 5 Mar. 1691. He took o. of alleg. 15 Dec. 1677, and was freem. 1690. TRUESDALE, TRUSDELL, TREWSDALE TREUSDALE or TRUESDALL, RICHARD, Boston, call. on join. the ch. 27 July 1634, serv. to our teacher John Cotton, freem. 4 Mar. foll. serv. in 1639 on the coroner's inq. on dead body of Peter Fitchew, wilful. drown. and next yr. on the more import. jury for trial of Hugh Bewett for heresy. He had no ch. prob. but his w. is, I suppose, meant in two letters of our first Gov. Winthrop to his s. John, Nov. 1646, mention that his s. Wait was with sis. T. That phrase led Farmer to write of Richard T. "perhaps br.-in-law of Gov. Winthrop." By similar misunderstand. of the word sis. the descend. of Samuel Symonds; suppos. they were of the same blood of John Winthrop of Conn. whose only sis. that passed infancy was first w. of Samuel Dudley, not Symonds. He was a butcher, and deac. of the first ch. but revolted at the disingen. managem. by wh. Davenport was brot. from New Haven, to be the min. and bec. one of the founders of the third or O. S. ch. in 1669 and d. 1671 leav. wid. Mary. SAMUEL, Cambridge, neph. of the preced. from wh. by his will he rec. £50, m. 1671, Mary, d. of John Jackson, first, of the same, had Richard, b. 16 July 1672; Mary, 3 Nov. 1673; Samuel, 13 Oct. 1675; Mindwell. 31 Aug. 1676; Rebecca, 25 Mar. 1678; Experience; Thomas, 27 Apr. 1682; and Ebenezer, 1685 . He was freem. 1685, liv. on S. side of the riv. in what was call. Cambridge vil. now Newton, for separat. of wh. he was active; had sec. w. Elizabeth wid. of George Woodward, d. of Thomas Hammond of Watertown; and a third w. Mary is nam. in his will. He d. says Jackson, 2 Mar. 1695, in 49th yr. wh. makes me concur with the diligent and judicious author of the Hist. of N. in, suppos. tho. ign. of the name of his f. that he was b. in our country. Under this name, Farmer had includ. John and John jr. of Kittery 1652; but I follow the rec. in spell. them Twisdale. TRULL, JOHN, Billerica, m. 11 Dec. 1657, Sarah, d. of William French, had John, b. 13 Jan. 1659; d. in few days; Sarah 27 May 1660; was freem. 1690, then call. sen. so that perhaps he had John, again, and other ch. He d. 15 June 1704, aged 70. SAMUEL, Billerica, perhaps br. of the preced. is on the tax list of 1679, when the name of John is not seen. TRUMAN, JOSEPH, New London 1666, constable 1667, d. in 1697, [[336]] made his will in Sept. 1696, ment. ch. Joseph, Thomas, Elizabeth Mary, and Ann, all perhaps b. bef. he went thitber. JOSEPH, New London, s. of the preced. m. 5 Dec. 1701, Mary Shapley, d. of Benjamin. TRUMBULL, TRUMBALL, TRUMBOLL, TRUMBLE, TRUMBELL, or TRUMMELL, DANIEL, Lynn, 1647, as Lewis marks, but adds not a word more. JOHN, Cambridge 1636, said to have come from New Castle on Tyne, was fin. L20 at the court, Mar. 1637, but for some cause so slight that it might have found lighter censure, as in June foll. three quarters of the penalty were taken off, and, at the general show of similar favor in 1638, L4 more were remit. Perhaps he is the sec. freem. of this name 13 May 1640, but in rec. giv. Trumball. By w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth 6 June 1638; John, 4 Aug. 1641; Hannah, 10 Dec. 1642; rem. to Charlestown, there had Mary, 3, but ano. rec. says 9 Feb. 1645; besides that on Cambridge rec. comes, also, James, 7 Dec. 1647. He was capt. of a trading vessel, and may have been the man in the Col. Rec. of Conn. I. 162, willing to accept Matthew Griswold's oath to his demand in 1648, and prob. the one meant by Davenport in Epist. to Gov. Winthrop 1655, as bring. him letters from Eng. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 7. He was a shopkeep. in Charlestown 1673, a householder in 1678, and d. leav. wid. Elizabeth early in July 1687, in his 80th yr. the inv. being tak. on 6 of that mo. and ret. by his s. John 19 Aug. foll. The wid. d. 15 Aug. 1696 in 86th yr. His d. Hannah m. 2 Mar. 1659 John Baxter. JOHN, Roxbury, when. in ch. rec. the spell. is Trumell, wh. caused a very experienced reader of early writ. to make it Trumtell, freem. 13 May 1640, is no more heard of at R. and, I think, was very soon at Rowley, there by w. Ellen had Hannah, b. 14 Feb. 1641; Judah, 3 June 1643; Ruth, 23 Apr. 1645; Joseph, 19 May 1647; m. Ann, perhaps d. of the first Richard Swan, had Abigail, 10 Dec. 1651, and d. 1657, bur. 18 July. His inv. was by w. Ann brot. 29 Sept. and he left John, Joseph, Judah, and perhaps more. The s. John is made. the progenit. of the great Conn. fam. and the common error found support in the Appx. to the Centen. Addr. by Bradford. The older s. stuck by the paternal mansion. JOHN, Rowley, s. prob. of the sec. freem. 1665, m. prob. a d. of William Jackson, of R. and made deac. 24 Dec. 1686, was appoint. ens. there by the Gen. Ct. 1685. JOHN, Charlestown, s. of the first John, m. 26 Sept. Mary, d. of Edward Jones, had Samuel, wh. was bapt. 25 July 1697 a. 14 yrs. old. He serv. in Mosely's comp. Dec. 1675. JOSEPH, Suffield 1677, s. prob. of the first. John of Rowley, freem. 1681, as early as July 1675, liv. in Suffield, from wh. the Ind. hostil. soon drove him, there had Joseph, b. 16 Jan. 1679; Ammi, 1 Aug. 1681; Benoni, 10 Aug. 1684; beside some of the rem. to S. of wh. prob. Hannah, wh. m. 26 Nov. 1686, d. of John Strong, the third, was one, as also John. His s. Joseph m. Hannah, d. of John Higley of Simsbury; rem. to Lebanon, and was f. of the first Gov. Jonathan, b. 1710, H. C. 1727, a [[337]] disting. patriot. JUDAH, Rowley, perhaps s. of the first John of the same, rem. to Suffield a. 1676, had a w. Mary, and ch. John, b. 5 Mar. 1674; Ebenezer, 1 Aug. 1675, d. soon; Joseph, 3 Jan. 1677; Judah, 2 Jan. 1679; Mary, 20 Mar. 1681; William, 9 July 1683; Samuel, 1 June 1643; and Ephraim, 6 July 1688; and d. Apr. 1692. His wid. Mary 22 Dec. 1692, bec. third w. of Vicary Sikes. Ralph. Marshfield 1643, may possib. be a miswrit. surname, Trumle. Of this name, ten have been gr. at Yale, and five at Harv. TRUSTRUM. See Tristram. TRY, or TRAY, MICHAEL, Windsor, freem. 1640, freed in 1660 from watch and ward, had sev. yrs. bef. rem. to Fairfield, had only ch. Sarah, wh. m. John Gruman. To her and her childr. he gave most. of his est. wh. was very considerab. when he d. 1676 or 7. He had above 20 yrs. earlier m. for sec. w. Margaret, wid. of Richard Roots of F. TUBBS, SAMUEL, New London a. 1663, m. Mary, d. of Isaac Willey, but Miss Caulkins in lettr of July 1860 tells me, that he had Mary and Bethia, bapt. on same day in May 1671; Samuel, July 1672; William, May 1674 (and I regret that the days of the several mos. are uncert.); Dorcas, b. 2 Mar. 1689; Joseph, 3 Sept. 1692; perhaps other ch. and d. 1696. His wid. was liv. 1725, then aged 77. WILLIAM, Plymouth and Duxbury, m. 9 Nov. 1637, Mercy d. of Francis Sprague, and was one of the proprs. of Bridgewater. TUCKE, or TEWK, EDWARD, Hampton, s. of Robert, perhaps b. in Eng. had John, if the acco. of Congr. min. in Rockingham Co. by Rev. William Cogswell, Geneal. Reg. I. 247, be correct (wh. disagrees with Farmer MS.) d. a. 1653. JOHN, Hampton, s. of Robert, says Farmer, by w. Bethia had John, b. 19 Apr. 1687, prob. d. young; Jonathan, Aug. 1697; John, again, 23 Aug. 1702, H. C. 1723, min. at Isle of Shoals, wh. d. 12 Aug. 1773, leav. John, H. C. 1758. He was rep. 1717, and d. 4 Jan. 1742. ROBERT, Watertown, came prob. in 1636, from Gorleston, Co. Suffolk, two ms. S. of Yarmouth, was freem. 7 Sept. 1639, but then was of Hampton, perhaps, where was his perman. resid. in latter days, though he may have been entit. a tailor of Salem at one time, was fin. for sell. beer, soon, aft. had license for th first inn at H. 1643, and d. 4 Oct. 1664, leav. wid. Joanna, wh. d. 14 Feb. 1673, by wh. perhaps, he had Mary, wh. m. lieut. John Sanborn, and d. 30 Dec. 1668; Edward, bef. ment.; Robert; William, b. a. 1646; and John, 1652. Robert and William prefer. to live in Eng. THOMAS, Salem 1637, was then a. 25 yrs. old, if his memo. thirty yrs. later be true. THOMAS, Charlestown, by w. Elizabeth d. of lieeut. Randall Nichols, had Mary, bapt. 29 Jan. 1671; Catharine, 23 July 1676, d. soon; Catharine, again, [[338]] 18 Nov. 1677; and Mary, 7 Oct. 1683; and he d. 12 Sept. 1687. WILLIAM, Milford, a propr. bef. 1675, rem. a few yrs. aft. TUCKER, ABRAHAM, and JOHN, early proprs. of Dartmouth, may have been s. often of Sandwich. ANDREEW, Marblehead 1663, was perhaps s. of Nicholas, and may be the man whose name in the petitn. of Marbleheaed, 1668 is giv. Stocker in Geneal. Reg. IX. 82. BENJAMIN, Roxbury, s. of Robert, had Benjamin, b. 8 Mar. 1671; Jonathan, 14 May 1675; Ephraim, 16 Aug. 1677, Ebenezer, 10 Oct. 1679; Mary, 7 Aug. 1682; Edward, 8 Aug. 1684; and by w. Amy, says the rec. tho. she may have been mo. of all the preced. had Joseph, 2 Nov. 1686; and by w. Ann, wh. I think the same, as the rec. is very careless, had Elizabeth 20 Dec. 1683. He d. 27 Feb. 1714, aged a. 60, as the gr.stone tells. BENONI, Salisbury, eldest s. of Maurice, m. June 1686, Ebenezer, d. of Thomas Nichols, strange as the rec. reads, had Ebenezer, b. 31 Mar. 1687; Benjamin, 12 Jan. 1690; Nathaniel, 12 Nov. 1692; Elizabeth 24 Mar. 1695; and Mary, 4 May 1697. EPHRIAM, Milton, s. prob. of Robert of the same was freem. 1678 and perhaps had w. and ch. GEEORGE, Marblehead 1653, a fisherman. HENRY, Sandwich, by w. Martha, had as the Friend's rec. at Newport tells, Abraham, b. 30 Oct. 1653; John, 18 Aug. 1656; Martha, 14 July 1659; Hannah, b. 25 July 1662; James, 16 Mar. 1666; Mary, 16. Aug. 1668; Sarah, 20 Sept. 1674. Mary m. 9 May 1690, Samuel Perry of Kingstown. But the Perry geneal. calls Tucker of Dartmouth; and certain. Abraham and John, prob. his s. were proprs. of D. JAMES, Milton, perhaps br. of Ephraim, m. Rebecca d. of Thomas Tolman, had, in 1678 a suit with the town of Dorchester, wh. gather. from him and others taxes, wh. the Gen. Ct. req. the town to repay. Prob. he had James, and perhaps others. JAMES, of some part of New Hampsh. perhaps Portsmouth or Dover, in each were fams. of the name, in 1689, when he join. other friends of liberty, in addr. the governm. of Mass. to protect them. JOHN, Watertown, 1636, a propr. perhapa the same man was next yr. at Hingham, propr. in ea. town, m. June 1649 wid. Norton, it may be as his sec. w. and d. 5 Aug. 1661, making nuncup. will in favor of John, and Mary, his ch. with injunct. to deal righteous. by the mother, meaning, I suppose, the stepmother, Ann, his wid. His d. Mary (by the former w.) to wh. Thomas Johnson and his w. Margaret gave all their prop. had bef. 30 Oct. 1662, m. Joseph Church. JOHN, Boston, by w. Sarah had Elizabeth b. 5 Feb. 1652; John, 8 Oct. 1655. JOHN, Isle of Shoals, fisherman, by his will of 31 Oct. 1670, gave small sum to his. min. Thomas Wells of Kittery, and bestow. the rest on John Amerideth and Joanna his w. and as the inv. of Apr. foll. was of so considera. amt. as £74, we may infer. that he had no w. nor ch. [[339]] JOHN, Portsmouth, perhaps s. of Richard, was one of the founders of the ch. 1671, freem. 1673; and call. sen. may have join. with the great body of people to solicit protect. in 1689, from Mass. and d. 2 May 1706. JOHN, Boston, mem. 3d. ch. freem. 1676. JOHN, Hingham, s. of John of the same, m. Mar. 1658, Elizabeth Hobart, wh. may have been d. of Edmund the sec. of the same, was freem. 1677. JOHN, Newbury, m. 11 July 1670, Mary Richardson, had Mary, b. 13 May 1677, prob. d. soon; Mary, again 25 Jan. 1697; Richard, 9 Mar. 1681; and John, 29 July 1683. JOHN, Gloucester, perhaps, but not prob. s. of Robert of the same, m. 9 May 1681, Sarah, d. of Thomas Riggs, had Mary, b. 1682; Sarah, 1695; John, 1686; William, 1690; Thomas, 1692; Richard, 1695; Abigail, 1697; Joseph, 1701, and Grace 1706; may have liv. at Casco, betw. 1680 and 90, some short time, but where or when he d. is unkn. JOHN, Dover, capt. by the Ind. 26 July 1696, may have been adult or minor. JOSEPH, Milton, was one of the comp. of the brave capt. Isaac Johnson, wh. was k. at their head in the great battle of 19 Dec. 1675, and T. may have fallen also, for I kn. no more of him. JOSEPH, Salisbury, s. of Maurice of the same, by w. Phebe Page had James, b. 25 Apr. 1697; Samuel, 16 Apr. 1699; and Joseph, 29 Aug. 1702. LEWIS, Casco 1680-90, was perhaps s. of Richard, b. 1643, certain. br. of John, had Hugh of Kittery, Lewis of Newcastle N. H. Elizabeth wh. m. a Bragdon of York or Kittery, and Grace, wh. m. Isaac Pierce of Boston. Willis I. 213. MANASSEH, Milton, perhaps s. of Robert of the same, freem. 1678, m. bef. 1679, Waitstill, eldest d. of Roger Sumner, had Manasseh, b. a. 1681, and prob. others; was deac. MAURICE, or MORRIS, Salisbury, m. 14 Oct. 1661, Elizabeth d. prob. of John Stevens of the same, had Benoni, b. 16 Oct. 1662, and she d. the same day. By sec. w.

The f. of William of Boston, H. C. 1769, a disting. citizen, was also nam. John, but he prob. was not any relat. of the preced. or suceed. but brot. by his m. from Devonsh. as tradit. tells, a. 1715. OWEN, or OWYN, Windsor, 1645, may have been at Dorchester, but no such tradit. exists, nor does any rec. show it; m. 13 Nov. 1651, wid. Mary Skinner, d. prob. of Joseph Loomis of the same, had Samuel, and Sarah, tw. b. 26 Nov. 1652; Owen, 12 Mar. 1655; Jane, 16 Oct. 1657; and Mary, 6 Mar. 1661; all bapt. 12 May foll. and all liv. at his d. 30 Oct. 1690. His w. d. 19 Aug. 1680. He is report. in the freemen's list 1669, had been prob. sev. yrs. was common. thot. to come from Wales, but that may be tradit. as to a progen. or childish [[341]] claim of relationsh. to be possess. of the throne of Gr.

C. 1728, but the date of his b. I find not. He is absurdly said to have begun the settlem. on E. side of the gr. riv. 1677, when there were dwellers there, 20 yrs. bef. and so much had it gr. that in 1680, petitn. was offered for its incorpo. as separ. town. He d. 6 July 1727. Farmer notes, that in 1834, five of this name had been gr. at Harv. and three at Yale. TUELLS, RICHARD, and THOMAS, were of Gallop's company 1690, but perhaps. were truly Twelves, s. of Robert. TUFTS, JAMES, k. by the Ind. at Bloody brook, 18 Sept. 1675, may have been a soldier of the flower of Essex.

I judge was the eldest. He was tythingman of C. 1679, rep. for Medford 1689, and d. 13 May 1700; aged 83, and his wid. d. Jan. 1703. He made a will 1693, with [[342]] codic. 1698, naming as left w.

He had been much engag. in preach. to the Ind. and in the Magnalia, VI. 61, we find he had 180 hearers.

Daniel, was one of the volunteers wh. set forth, in Oct. 1689, on the sucessful expedit. under Colon. author. to capt. a pirate vessel in Vineyard Sound. See Geneal. Reg. II. 393.

WILLIAM, Dorchester 1642, freem. 10 May 1643, [[349]] rem. to Boston, and was one of the founders of the first Bapt. ch. 1665; would, early in Philip's war, have formed a comp. of volunteers for serv. against the com. enemy, but, as most of the assoc. were his relig. persuasion, his and their offers were slighted. As the war grew more danger. in the foll. spring, he was encourag. by the governm. and had command on the upper waters of Conn. riv. on 18 May surpris. the Ind. at the place where the falls have since borne his name, and gave them a signal defeat, but on the return he was surround. at Green riv. and the next day after the Falls fight was k. with fourteen of his men.

His w. Mary and two ds. were charg. with witchcraft, and imprison. at Salem, but happi. not being tr. bef. the smoke of the bottomless pit that affect. a jury much, and judges more, had begun to diperse (even aft. confess, by the w. and one of her ds. overcome by urgent appeals of friends), were aquit. 6 and 7 Jan. 1693. In 1697 he sold his est. at A. and prob. rem. JOB, Andover, may have had ch. bef. that town was sett. as Hope or Moses, and Dr. Stiles found his name, tho. I doubt a mistake in his vision, on the roll of adm. at Aquedneck, or Portsmouth, R. I. 1639. Certain. at Providence was early a wid. Joan T. had sh. in div. of lots in 1638, at that point call. Tockwotton, and she is nam. again in 1640. Possib. she was mo. of Job, who was b. a. 1619. By w.

He was quarter-master by com. title, rem. to Andover a. 1700, and there d. 2 Oct. 1727, aged 85 or 6. His will is in Geneal. Reg. XII. 319. Eight s. three ds. and childr. of two ds. dec. had sharees in his est. either by advancem. or testam. NATHANIEL, Lynn 1640, by w. Jane had Joseph, and in Oct. 1652, mak. his will as he purpos. going on a voyage on the sh. "N. E. merch." he would that his s. wh. liv. at Shrwsbury in Co. Salop, should have £50. PETER, Branford 1668, perhaps br. of Francis, [[356]] or George, or of both, propund. for freem. 1672, m. 20 Nov. 1671, Deborah, d. of Daniel Swain, had Peter, b. 20 Jan. 1673; John, 20 Nov. 1674; Deborah, 15 Mar. 1677; Dorcas, 3 May 1678; Hannah, 10 Feb. 1682; Ebenezer, 9 May 1684; and by sec. w. Hannah Whitehead, had Patieence, 25 Sept. 1689; Joseph, 25 Apr. 1691; and Hannah, 8 May 169 ; but the last fig. is uncert. as is the date of his d. ROGER, New Haven, had been prob. in Mass. 1650, and d. at N. H. where his inv. was giv. 7 Feb. 1674. Perehaps he had liv. at Wallingford, where was ano. Roger, prob. his s.

Hannah had Samuel, b. 1 May 1657; Mary, 10 Apr. 1660. Thomas, Boston, came from Budleigh in Co. Devon, m. Miriam, d. of Pilgrim Simpkins, had Thomas, b. 15 Aug. 1685; William, 15 Mar. 1687; Andrewm 1692; John, 1695; and Miriam, 22 Feb. 1698, but his last at Weymouth, where, being a sea-capt. he may have been engag. in build. a vessel. His last voyage was in 1703, when he was tak. by a Barbary corsair, and no moree heard of. Perhaps he was k. at the capt. but a fa. tradit. is ment. that he d. at sea. His w. took admin. 12 May 1704. THOMAS, Derby, s. of William of Milford, d. 1704, without fam. and his est. went to his brs. William and John, sis. Mary Palmer, Elizabeth Palmer, Abigail Rundell, and Hannah Tyler. There is a tradit. prob. of no value, that this Thomas was lost in the same way, 1695, as his f. of course when he was 10 yrs. old. WILLIAM, New Haven, took o. of fidel. 7 Apr. 1657, rem. to Milford, m. Abigail, d. of Roger Terrill, had Elizabeth b. 1663; Abigail, 1664; William, 1665; John, 1667; all bapt.

But on the prob. rec. some discrepancy of names is seen, when the inv. is brot. in, as the oldest ch. appears, Mary, 32 yrs.; EElizabeth Palmere, 29; Abigail Rundle, 28; William, 27; John, 25; Sarah (perhaps the tw. call Mary), 21; Hannah, 20; and Thomas (wh. perhaps was first call. Ephraim), 18. His s. William liv. some time at Derby, but reem. to Wallingford. WILLIAM, Boston, s. of Thomas of the same, m. Sarah, d. of Joseph Royal of the same, had four s. Thomas, H. C. 1730; William, H. C. 1733; Royal, H. C. 1743; and Joseeph; beside d. Sarah. For this name, of wh. Farmer found the gr. in 1834, to be ten at Harv. eight at Yale, and eight at the other N. E. coll. oft. is found mistake of Tyley, or even Tilley. TYNG, EDWARD, Boston, merch. but early wrote hims. brewer, came prob. with w. Mary, whose fam. name was Sears, as tradit. tells; if so, he had been, I think, here bef. m. her, a. 1636, and went home to find [[357]] a w. She join. our ch. 5 Sept. 1640, and hee join. 30 Jan. foll. was freem. 2 Junee foll. ar. do. 1642, and constable the same yr. rep. 1661 and 2, assist. 1668 to 80 inclus. and d. at Dunstable, 28 Dec. 1681, one acco. says ageed 81, but the creedit is less, inasmuch as the same marks the day 28 Sept. as in Geneeal. Reg. VIII. 19, and I concur with Farmer MS. wh. thinks more prob. the age 71. By w. Mary, by some thot. his sec. wh. may be doubt. he had Hannah, b. 7 Mar. 1640, bapt. 6 Seept. foll.; Mary, 17 Apr. bapt 2 May 1641, perehaps d. young; Jonathan 15, bapt. 18 Dec. 1642; Deliverance, 6 Aug. says the town rec. wh. is fasif. by the ch. rec. bapt. 13 July 1645; Rebecca, 23 Mar. tho. the trustworthy ch. rec. gives bapt. 21, 1647, d. young; Edward; Rebecca, again, 13 July 1651; William, 3 Mar. 1653, prob. d. young; Eunice, 8 Mar. 1655; and Joseeph, 12 July 1657, wh d. young; Hannah, m. 8 May 1661, Habijah Savage; and next maj.-gen.

This gave him great inteereest in thee qustion of jurisdict. and land titles in Maine. He had Edward, b. 1683; Jonathan, d. young; Mary; and Elizabeth; was onee of the council 1686, 7 not much in favor with Andros; after conq. of Nova Scotia, he was made Gov. of Annapolis, and on the voyage to his conlony was tak. by the French, and d. in France.

In little more than six mos. he express. a strong wish to go home, as the agitat. of the antinom. controversy had begun with great warmth, anbd tho. the ch. of Boston and that of Braintree would sustain his side, all the others in the Col. were very strong against him.

Maidstone, a sincere commonwealth's man, in his letter to Winthrop writ. but a few weeks bef. the universal outbreak of enthusiasm for Charles II. explains the pleasure of the people at this dishonor to Vane, by add. that he was "unhappy in lying under the most catholik prejudice of any man I know."

WILLIAM, Salem, with w. whose name is not found, join. the ch. 1650, but as Felt I. 176 makes him to be a freem. aft. 1635, I cannot doubt that the sound and spelling Vincen, justify my calling him Vinson, as below. But the adm. as freem. was on 10 May 1643. WILLIAM, New London, had prob. liv. at Gloucester, there m. Rachel, d. of William Varney; did not improve the grant made him at N. L. in 1651, but was of Providence in May 1666, when he engag. his alleg. to Charles II. and m. 31 May 1670, Priscilla, d. of William Carpenter, perhaps as sec. w. and by a former one may have had Joanna wh. m.

VINE, WILLIAM, Charlestown, by w. Elizabeth d. of Richard Harrington, m. 15 Oct. 1674, wh. join. the ch. 10 June 1677, had Elizabeth bapt. that day; and William, 19 June 1681.

John Wheelwright, when he was in Eng. and Vines may well be thot. to be there too. He was much esteem. in the Col. and dept.-gov. in 1644; one of the very earliest travel. to the White mountains, wh. he visit. in the last week of Aug. 1642, was by the people chos. dept. gov.

Nicholas, in Farmer's MS is call. of Mass. but no [[375]] more is ment. except that he was b. 1624. THOMAS, Martha's Vineyard, acc. incoher. tradit. was one of the first four sett. there, but I doubt the whole story. WILLIAM, Gloucester, freem. 10 May 1643, by w.

VINTON, BLAISE, Lynn, or Malden, youngest s. of John the first, was on serv. in Philip's war 1675 and 6, but aft. very diligent search, the scrupul. author of the Vinton Memo. could say no more of him; yet he makes Lydia, d. of the sec. John Hayden m. a Vinton, and as the only elder brs. John and William he supplied with wives of other names, my conject. may be indulg. that this Blaise got that Lydia, tho. no ch. is kn.

When Paige and Shurtleff agree in read. ancient record, it may be safe eno. to follow. The strangeness of such a name might decide it adversely to the W. but the diligence of Folsom, in his admir. hist. of Saco, 124, shows that the exact turth of the patronymic is Warwick. See that. WADE, HENRY, Hingham 1652. * JONATHAN, Ipswich, had come in 1632, in the Lion, arr. 16 Sept. perhaps with w.

It provides for w. Susanna, and the childr. but names only the eldest Jonathan, to wh. he gives all his ld. in parish of Denver, Co. Norfolk, on W. side, one mile from Downham market. We may then infer, that was his native place. The d. Mary m. William Symonds; Sarah m. 13 Nov. 1661.

Mary) had at Charlestown, Nathaniel b. 13, bapt. 20 July 1673; so that the date of b. in Geneal, Reg.

[[379]] by the Ind. 22 Feb. 1698, if we trust the town rec. or 24th if we take Sewall's Diary, yet perhaps the latter was the date of the news coming to him. THOMAS, Ipswich, s. prob. youngest, of Jonathan the first, m. 22 Feb. 1670, Elizabeth Cogswell, d. perhaps of William, had Jonathan; Thomas; John, H. C. 1693, min of Berwick; Nathaniel; and William, wh. was k. at sea, 3 Apr. 1697; beside four others; was freem. 1682, capt. and an active citizen, and d. 4 Oct. 1696, leav. wid. and nine ch.

ROBERT, Wells, br. of John, own. alleg. to Mass. 1653, town clk. 1659, there was liv. 1668, and 9, yet this yr. with inhab. at Dover, and I judge not be the same wh. set. at Exceter, and was in 1684, a counsel.

Sarah, d. of Thomas Stanley, had Sarah, b. 1 Nov. 1657; Samuel, 3 Jan. 1660; John, 14 [[380]] Apr. 1662; Mary, 13 Nov. 1665, d. young; William, 1671; Nathaniel, 1674; James, 1677; Thomas, 1680; and Hezekiah, bapt. 24 Dec. 1682. His inv. is of 6 Nov. 1689; the will of two mos. bef. ment. the seven s. and d. Sarah w. of Stephen Root. He was rep. 1672-7, and was nominat. in the last yr. of Assist. but not chos. until 1679, had distinct. in the milit. and with the Gov. and others was of the standing council for affairs in Philip's war. * JOHN, Farmington, s. of the preced. m. 20 Aug. 1696, Elizabeth d. of John Stanley, had Sarah, b. 3 July 1697; Elizabeth 3 May 1700; John, 9 Oct. 1702; Daniel, 14 Nov. 1704, Y.

Mary Gridley, wh. had been sec. w. of Samuel. * JOSEPH, Hartford, s. of William, was propound. for freem. 1676, with his brs. Samuel, and Thomas, and all adm. the same yr. was a lieut. and serv. in Philip's war; m. Elizabeth d. of Bartholomew Barnard, wh. d. 26 Oct. 1710, had Joseph, b. 1682; Elizabeth; Jonathan, bapt. 20 Feb. 1687, d. young; and we kn. other ch. (from Hinman 323) to have been Ichabod; Hannah; and Jonathan, again. His sec. w. was perhaps Elizabeth d. of the sec. John Talcott. But he is most rememb. with gratitude in our times, as the perserver of the charter, in opposit. to the demand of the royal Gov. by the perilous expedient of extinct. of the lights in the Council chamber, 31 Oct. 1687, and hiding the parchment in the great oak. He m. late in life, Mary, d. of John Blackleach, the younger, wh. had been first w. of Thomas Welles, next of John Olcutt, and she surv. Wadsworth. He was capt. d. 1730. * NATHANIEL, Farmington, s. of John, m. 21 Mar. 1705, Dorothy, d. of John Ball of New Haven, had Eunice, b. 10 June 1706; Timothy, bapt. 5 June 1709; Esther, prob. 3 May 1713; Sarah, 20 Jan. 1717; Nathaniel, perhaps 14 Sept. 1718; Mary, 14 Aug. 1720; Hezekiah, 16 Sept. 1722; and Timothy, again,, perhaps 26 Nov. 1727; was rep. 1727, and d. 20 Dec. 1761. SAMUEL, Milton, s. of Christopher, freem. 1668, m. Abigail d. of James Lindall of Marshfield, ahd perhaps Recompense, wh. d. 12 July 1679, only a few days bef. he would have been gr. at Harv. in 21st yr.; Ebenezer, b. a. 1661; Christopher, a. 1663; prob. others, and certain. Benjamin 1669, H. C. 1690, min. of the first ch. in Boston, ord. 8 Sept. 1696, and Presid. of Harv. Coll. He was disting. as a capt. in Philip's war, and in Apr. 1676, going to relief of Sudbury on a sudden assault by the enemy, was overpower. by numbers, and with the lieut. Sharpe of Brookline, and half his comp. cut off 21 Apr. Yet many authorities gave the date 18. The matter seems stated with much plausibility and with suffic. caution as to weight of evid. in Geneal. Reg. VII. 221. SAMUEL, Hartford, s. of William, d. 1682, his will of 16 Aug. in that yr. gave est. above [[381]] £1100. to brs. sis. a neph. and niece, so that we infer, he had no w. nor ch. then liv. * SAMUEL, Farmington, s. of John, m. 12 June 1689, Hannah, d. of Joseph Judson, had Hannah, bapt. 11 Feb. 1693; Sarah, 20 Oct. 1695; and Samuel, perhaps 23 Jan. 1698; was rep. 1699, and 1711, and d. 19 May 1731. His wid. d. 22 Aug. 1732. SAMUEL, Milton, prob. s. of the first Samuel, was deac. and d. 31 Jan. 1734 in his 60th yr. THOMAS, Hartford, s. of William of the same, had w.

TIMOTHY, Boston, freem. 1690, by w. Susanna, had Susanna, b. 29 Oct. 1687; and recompense, 19 Mar. 1690, H. C. 1708. * WILLIAM, Cambridge 1632 came, prob. with fam. of four ch. Sarah, William, wh. d. young, Mary, and John, in the Lion from London, arr. 16 Sept. See Winthrop Hist. I. 90. This date overthrows the slight presumpt. of some mem. of the mod. fam. that their progenit. had been first of Braintree, inasmuch as the court had in the preced. mo. order. the few friends of Hooker, wh. had sat down at B. to rem. to a safer spot. he was freem. 6 Nov. 1632, and in the great exodus, June 1636, rem. to Hartford, and there seems to have liv. in the highest esteem, no man ever more oft. chos. rep. for betw.

His ch. by this w. were Elizabeth b. 17 Mary 1645; Samuel, 20 Oct. 1646, wh. d. at mid. age; Joseph, a. 1648; Sarah, the sec. 17 Mar. 1650; Thomas, a. 1651; and Rebecca, a. 1656; but of the first w. we kn. nothing, nor the order of dates for her ch. nor indeed date of a single one. The first Sarah m. 17 Sept. 1646, John Wilcox; Mary m. a. 1656, Thomas Stoughton of Windsor, so that we can be sure these two as well as John were of the first w. Elizabeth m. 27 Nov. 1662, John Terry of Windsor; and Sarah of the sec. w. m. 10 Nov. 1669, Jonathan Ashley of Springfield. He d. 1675, his will of 16 May 1675, with his inv. of 18 Oct. foll. and his wid. d. 1682, when Rebecca was unm. * WILLIAM, Farmington, s. of John, m. 10 Dec. 1696, Abigail, youngest d. of Capt. William Lewis, wh. d. 1707; and he m. 2 Jan. 1709, Sarah, d. of Thomas Bruce, wh. d. 1748. By this w. he had only William, b. 2 Dec. foll. the m.; but by first w. were William, b. 7 Dec. 1697, wh. d. young; Mary, 1700; Hannah, 27 July 1701; Abigail, 27 Jan. 1703; and Ezekiel, 19 Oct. 1704. He was rep. 1718-40, and d. 26 Oct. 1751. Of this name Farmer notes in 1829, that seven had been gr. at Harv. five at Yale, and three at Brown. WAINWRIGHT, FRANCIS, Ipswich 1637, serv. in the Pequot war, for kn. of wh. fact we are indebted to the "True Relation" of the battle by [[382]] Rev. Philip Vincent, as may be seen in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VI. 40 and 1; was perhaps from Chelmsford in Co. Essex. FRANCIS, Ipswich, perhaps s. of the preced. b. in Eng. freem. 16571, was a merch. of the distinct. a corporal 1664, by w.

His will, wh. is found in Suffk. rec. XIII. 17, provides for wid. Hannah, and ds. Mary w. of Rev. Jeremiah Shepard; Martha, w. of Joseph Proctor; Mehitable, w. of John Atwater; Elizabeth w. of Jonathan Cogswell; gr.s. Francis s. of Jacob Perkins by his d. Sarah; and Francis and John, s. of his s.

JACOB, a soldier under capt. Lathrop, k. with the "flower of Essex" at Bloodybrook, 18 Sept. 1675, was perhaps s. of the sec. Francis. JOHN, Ipswich, br. of the last Francis, m.

THOMAS, Wethersfield 1643, serv. of Mr. Henry Smith, failed in suit against him, may have tak. disgust, and gone back to Dorchester 1659.

Sept. of next yr.; Samuel, bapt. 7 Nov. 1641; Deborah, bapt. 21 Jan. 1644, a. 4 days old; and Barry adds John, wh. would otherwise be unkn. to me.

I find neither brot. to bapt. perhaps bec. he was serv. as serg. in the Pequot war; for wh. in later days he obt. gr. of 300 acres, yet held fast by the deadly heresies of Mrs. Hutchinson, and was therefore in Nov. 1637 compel. to surrender his arms to better believer, and was in Jan. 1639, subject. to maledict. by the ch. for tak. a portion of buckskin leather to make gloves, so that the next ch. Return, 8 July foll. was next Sunday bapt. in right of its mo., wh. had come from the ch. of Newbury, says our rec. The next ch. was Hannah, b. 14 Sept. 1641, Barry tells from the town rec. wh. to me seems wrong, bec. the ch. to the good will of wh. he was restor. shows rec. of the bapt. 12th of that mo. declares she was 6 days old; next, Nathaniel, bapt. 5 Nov. 1643, a. 11 days old; Mary, b. 25, bapt. 22 Feb. 1646, a. 6 days old; Samuel, bapt. 9 July 1648, a. 20 days old; and Elizabeth 17 Nov. 1650.

His wid. d. 1678, aged a. 72. RICHARD, Springfield, took o. of alleg. 31 Dec. 1678. or next day, was on serv. in Philip's war, and when lieut. Thomas Cooper was slain by the Ind. was badly wound. for wh. in 1680 the governm. reliev. him from poll tax. SAMUEL, Wickford 1674, may, by w. Alice, have had Joseph, b. 1697; George, 1699; Samuel, 1701; Benjamin, 1702; Martha; and John, 1708; unless a later SAMUEL, perhaps s. at North Kingstown had these ch. SAMUEL, Malden, s. of capt. John had w. Mehitable, d. of the first William Bucknam, was freem. 1690, and d. 17 Sept, 1720. THOMAS, Ipswich, perhaps s. of John of the same, was serg. 1664, had John, b. 11 Dec. 1658; and was liv. 1678. THOMAS, Portsmouth, R. I. 1639, was among the freem. 1655, and of him I learn no more but that he had d. Mary wh. m. 5 Apr. 1676, Joseph Anthony of the same. THOMAS, Watertown, s. of Richard of the same, by w. Sarah, had Richard, b. 29 Jan. 1675, d. at 15 yrs.; Phebe, 26 July 1676; Thomas, 7 Mar. 1678; John, 16 Feb. 1681, d. at 10 yrs.; Joseph, 4 Feb. 1683; Sarah, 13 Jan. 1688; Mary, 20 Jan. 1690; Richard, again, 25 June 1691; and Abigail, 3 Dec. 1697; and he d. 3 Jan. 1723, and his wid. d. 17 Jan. 1744, aged 91, or by ch. rec. only 89.

His wid. d. 7 Oct. 1748. Who was his f. or whence he came to N. is unkn. WAKE, WILLIAM, Salem, was by our Court, in 1640, advis. to go home to his w. but seems not to have complied, and was frequent. fined for his disregard until he d. 1654; but from his will of 17 Apr. in that yr. seems to have left no ch. exc. Catharine, and beside ment. only br. John, both in Eng. WAKEFIELD, JOHN, Salem 1638, may have been next yr. of Plymouth, and aft. at Wells, where he was of gr. jury 1656. He m. prob. Elizabeth wid. of Edmund Littlefield. JOHN, Watertown 1646, may bef. and aft. have been of New Haven, there by w. Ann had Hannah, bapt. 29 Dec. [[386]] 1644; Mary, 24 Aug. 1645; and Martha, b 19 Apr. bapt. 19 May 1650, prob. for the date in Geneal. Reg. IX. 363, is, manifestly, wrong for Sunday. So is, perhaps, ano. ch.

The wid. m. 17 Oct. 1661, James Clark of New Haven, and d. 1695. Hannah m. 1662, as his sec. w. Edward Grannis; Mary m. 27 Oct. 1663, Ebenezer Dibble, and next, 15 June 1677, James Hillier; and Martha m. 21 Oct. 1668, Nicholas Buckland. JOHN, Boston, had Elizabeth wh. m. 20 Aug. 1660 Joseph Frost, and perhaps rem. the same yr. to Edgartown, but he may have been the one, wh. at Wells. 1653, submit. to the jurisdict. of Mass. JOHN, Boston, perhaps s. of the preced. by w. Deliverance, had Deliverance, b. 8 Sept. 1664; Ann, 2 Sept. 1666; John, 27 Jan. 1669; Samuel, 1 May 1674, prob. d. soon; and Samuel, again, 15 Jan. 1678; was, I suppose, that householder in 1695, wh. d. 1703. His will of 18 Oct. 1698, prob. 14 Mary. 1704, gave all to w. Deliverance for her life with power, on few occassions bestowed, to div. among his ch. at her pleasure. OPBADIAH, Boston, join. Mather's ch. June 1682,and was adm. freem. Feb. foll. had w. Susanna, and ch. Obadiah, b. 4 May 1674, d. soon; Obadiah, again, 1 Nov. 1677; John, 4 July 1682; and Samuel, 15 May 1686; not any more on town rec. but on ch. rec. are found, Ann, bapt. 8 Dec. 1689, perhas d. soon; Ann, again, 29 May 1692; Deborah, 21 Apr. 1695; Ann, again, 27 Feb. 1698. SAMUEL, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 2 Mar. 1675; Ebenezer, 12 Sept. 1684; Joshua, 19 Aug. 1686; and Dorcas, 5 Feb. 1689; was the mem. of ar. co. 1676, to wh. the Gen. Ct. in 1684, did not grant his req. to set up a wooden frame. WILLIAM, Hamtpon, the freem. of 13 Mar. 1639, town clk. in 1641, is prob. he wh. came in the Bevis, the yr. bef. from Southampton, aged 22, with w. or sis. Ann, 20, as serv. of Stephen Dummer of Newbury; and, Coffin ways, came again to Newbury 1646. WAKEHAM, or WAKCOME, EDWARD, perhaps of Dover, wh. may have been s. of John, m. 16 Mar. 1692, Sarah, d. of John Meader, JOHN, Dover, or that neighborhood, in 1689, prayed for governm. of Mass. to be extend over their country. WAKELY, WAKLEE, or WAKELIN, HENRY, Hartford, but not orig. propr. own. two lots there, yet rem. to Stratford, perhaps yr. bef. the enumerat. as freem. 1669. His will of 11 July 1689, names three s. Deliverance, James, and Jacob, ds. Patience, Abigail, and Mary Stevens. It gave also to Thomas Lettin, and Elizabeth Squier; and names his w. Sarah. ISAAC, Gloucester, s. of Thomas, was lost by shipwreck with Muddle a. 1662; but ano. Isaac, also s. of Thomas, was k. by the Ind. JAMES, Hartford 1649, may have been earlier inhab. there, and rem. to [[387]] Wethersfield, where he m. Alice, wid. of James Boosy. Some controv. was rais. a. this m. as it seems, for the Gen. Ct. of Conn. in Feb. 1653, judg. the act. of Dept. Gov. Haynes in m. them to be legal. However heas was not long content. to live with old neighbors. and rem. to Newport, 1665. At Providence he sent, 1680, to Conn. petitn. for divorce, and his w. desir. divorce also. Neither prevail. JOHN, Falmouth, s. of Thomas, had been of Gloucester 1656, m. 10 May of unkn. yr. but perhaps 1657, Elizabeth Sowers, says Geneal. Reg. IV. 366, had Hannah, of whose b. we hae the day 12, but not the mo. nor yr.; Thomas, b. 3 Sept. 1659, d. in 3 days; and Elizabeth 31 Jan. 1662; was k. with w. and ch. by the Ind. Sept. 1675. His d. Elizabeth however, was tak. by the Ind. at that time, and in June 1676 restor. and m. Richard Scammon of Dover, and had plenty of ch. He is the man, whose name in the inestimable Coll. of Hutchinson, 398, is print. Marklie. RICHARD, Haddam, had been made freem. 1657, bef. H. was incorp. d. 6 Aug. 1681. His est. was distrib. to the wid. two s. and one d. all nameless. THOMAS, Hingham 1635, freem. 3 Mar. 1636, had perhaps that Thomas, wh. d. 23 June, 1644, rem. to Falmouth 1661, was there in 1675, with w. s. and his w. and four ch. k. by the Ind. Willis I. 137. WAKELING, LUKE, Rowley 1662, is prob. the same fam. name as the preced. WAKEMAN or WAKMAN, EZBON, ISBUN OR ISBON, Stratford, among the freem. 1669, s. of Samuel of Hartford, had liv. at New Haven 1653, m. 1 Apr. 1669, at Guilford, Hannah Jordan, but bef. 1671, had purch. est. at Fairfield, where he d. 1683, leav. only d. Abigail, wh. m. Thomas Hill. His wid. Hannah, m. 1685, Joseph Bastard. JOHN, New Haven 1639, was treasr. of that Col. 1656, d. 1661; had a w. for the Hist. Disc. of Dr. Bacon, in his seating of the metting-ho. 10 Mar. 1646, gives the name of sis. W. s. Samuel, and Elizabeth m. 11 Mar. 1657, Samuel Kitchell, one of the early sett. at Newark, N. J; and Ellen, ano. d. m. 29 Oct. 1650, the sec. John Talcott. Goodwin calls him Rev. but the reason for this distinct. is not seen. The f. made his will at Hartford and d. there. * SAMUEL, Roxbury 1631, br. of John, came in the Lion, arr. in Nov. freem. 7 Aug. foll. prob. rem. to Cambridge, was rep. at the May sess. 1635, and rem. with Gov. Haynes, or rather as his forerun. to Hatford, where in Apr. 1636, he was made constable, and engag. in adjust. the bounds of the first settlem. of Windsor and Wethersfireld, was k. in the smummer of 1641, with capt. Pierce at Providence in the Bahamas, as told by Winthrop, II. 33. His est. was in Dec. 1645, sett. on Nathaniel Willett, wh. had m. his wid. Elizabeth but he was to pay £40. to the s. when 21 yrs. old. and L20. to ea. of 3 ds. on their coming to 18. They were all young, for the ch. rec. of Roxbury informs [[388]] us, that he bur. his only ch. at sea, and his first b. here by w. Elizabeth was Elizabeth wh. m. Joseph Arnold; Joanna m. Francis Hacleton; and the other m. John Kelly. SAMUEL, Fairfield, s. of John, was bred at Harv. but left coll. in 1655, "Upon a dissatisfact. a. an hardship, wh. they [seventeen of the schol.] thot. put upon them, in mak. them lose a good part of a yr. of the time, whereupon they claim. their degr." says Magn. IV. 135. But Mather is too indefinite, and, with refer. to Brimsmead and Torrey, prob. mistak. so that we fell little confid. in his narrat. He m. 29 Oct. 1656, Hannah, d. of Stephen Goodyear, at New Haven, there had Samuel, b. 12 Oct. fol. rem. to F. was ord. 30 Sept. 1665, much esteem. and d. 8 Mar. 1692. His will bears the same date, and his inv. is of 8 Apr. foll. He names w. Hannah, ch. Samuel, wh. was d. 1691; John; Joseph; and Jabez. The est. was div. by John, Joseph, Jabez. He had also Ebenezer; whose est. was div. among the three brs. and three brs.-in-law: Albert Denny, Abrahm Howell, Nicholas Clegstone, prob. hs. of three ds. WALCOT, WALLCOT, WALCUT, or WALCOTT, ABRAHAM, Salem vill. now Danvers, husbandman, first heard of 1678, freem. 1690, m. 22 Nov. 1682, Ruth Hooper, perhaps d. of the first William, and by sec. w. m. 30 Apr. 1689, Abigail Briggs, had Nathaniel, b. 11 Feb. 1694. JOHN, Danvers, s. perhaps eldest of Jonathan, by w. Mary had Elizabeth b. 20 June 1693; Jerusha, 20 Dec. 1696; Mary, 11 Apr. 1699; and Jonathan, 9 May, 1700. JONATHAN, Salem, in that part wh. bec. Danvers, m. 26 Jan. 1665, Mary, d. of John Sibley, had beside ds. Hannah and Mary, John; Jonathan, b. 1 Sept. 1670; and Samuel, 12 Oct. 1678, H. C. 1698. His w. d. 28 Dec. 1683; and he m. 23 Apr. 1685 Deliverance, d. of Thomas Putnam, and had Thomas; William; Ebenezer; Benjamin, 23 Apr. 1695; and Ann. He was perhaps br. of Abraham, capt. and freem. 1690, and d. 16 Dec. 1699. JOSIAH, Salem by w. Penelope, m. 19 Feb. 1685, wh. d. 28 Dec. 1690, had Elizabeth b. 30 Mar. 1688; and Josiah, 21 Dec. 1690, d. in two wks. He took sec. w. 1 or 6 May 1694, Mary, d. of John Freke of Boston. WILLIAM, Salem 1637, was excommun. by Hugh Peter's influence with his ch. at the same time, and for the same cause, as famous Roger Williams, with whose opinions on some points of ecclesiast. customs be sympathiz. rem. Farmer thinks, to Providence, but I kn. no more. WALDEN, EDWARD, Wenham, d. June 1679, in his will of 22 Mar. preced. ment. s. Nathaniel, appoint, excor. other ch. all under age, John, Hannah, Ruth, Naomi,and Elizabeth beside omit. Mary and Thomasin, for wh. as Rev. Joseph Gerrish sw. he told him, "he had done eno. already." So we may conlcude, that these were elder. See Essex Inst. Coll. III. 48, 9. [[389]] WALDRO, CORNELIUS, Ipswich 1654, m. a. d. of John Cogswell, had John and Cornelius, perhaps others, prob. Elizabeth wh. m. 4 Feb. 1673, Josiah Bracket of Billerica, rem. to Chelmsford, was deac. and d. 3 June. 1701. * CORNELIUS, Dunstable, s. of the preced. one of the founders of the ch. 16 Dec. 1685, was re. 1689, had perhaps Cornelius and others. * JOHN, Chelmsford 1675, s. of the first Cornelius, was rep. a short sess. 1689, for Dunstable. He rem. in the Ind. war to Windham, Conn. there d. a. 1700. His will of 14 Apr. in that yr. names w. Rebecca, wh. was d. of Samuel Adams of C. s. John, and refers to other childr. not nam. His inv. was L292. beside the st. at Chelmsford. ROBERT, Charlestown, d. 2 Aug. 1677, says Farmer MS. but I doubt he as only trans. Five of this name had, in 1818, been gr. at Harv. and one at Yale, and others at other N. E. coll. WALDRON, WALDREN, WALDERNE, or WALROND, ALEXANDER, Dover 1664, kinsman, perhaps, but not younger br. of the first Richard, had not, that we kn. any fam. but d. at Newcastle, or great isl. 7 June 1676, naming five brs. to take his prop. with a sis. Mary, namely, Isaac, William, Goerge, Samuel, and Edward, as Farmer, MS. shows. EDWARD, Ipswich 1648, perhaps br. of the preced. prob. went home soon. GEORGE, Dover 1661, of wh. we hear no more, but his being br. of Alexander, exc. that he rem. to Boston, there by w.Rachel had John, b. 25 Aug. 1676; and Benjamin, 22 May, 1679; unless, indeed, he were that other GEORGE, of Boston, wh. by w.

Dorothy, was, in 1665, 40 yrs. old; and perhaps late in life m. Elizabeth wid. of the William Horne, k. by the Ind. at the assault on that town, 27 June 1689. JOHN, Marblehead, 1673, m. 25 Sept. 1679, Dorcas Rice, had been perhaps of Ipswich, the yr. bef. the childr. were Mary, b. 30 Jan.1681; John, 8 Dec. 1682; Edward, 23 Nov. 1687; Tabitha, 22 Sept. 1689; Naomi, 10 Aug. 1691; Tamisin, 9 May 1693; Joseph, 15 Feb. 1695; Sarah, 9 Jan. 1699; and Nathaniel, 27 Aug. 1700.

Very detail. acco. of the k. by the Ind. of two of the ch. of the ages of 7 and 5 yrs. and large partic. of the [[390]] resid. of the fam. was giv. in the Dover Enquirer; but so much is of a mythic and fabulous charact. as not to deserve attent. PAUL, Dover, eldest s. of the first Richard, was charg. for unlicens. sale of Liquor 1668, as by our Col. Rec. is shown, soon aft. went abroad, and, it is said was tak. by Algerines, and d. a. 1669.

His w. d. 7 Feb. 1680, and he was k. by the Ind. 27 June 1689, with circumst. of unusualy cruelty, aged 74, not, as Farmer says, 80. His d. Ann, m. a. 1670, Rev. Joseph Gerish of Wenham; Esther m.

He was drown. at Kennebunk in Sept. of that yr.; not, as Farmer and most others report, 1647. See Winthrop II. 278. His d. Prudence m. 1661, Richard Seammon.

JEREMIAH, Portsmouth, s. prob. of the preced. was liv. it is said, in 1688, and prob. many yrs. later. JOHN, Portsmouth, not perhpas of this fam. unless he were s. of the sec. Thomas, was one of the royal counc. 1692. THOMAS, Charlestwon 1628, found there by the first comers of the Mass. comp. in 1629, and call. a smith, but rem. a. 1631, to Portsmouth, where he was better treat. than in Mass. serv. on the gr. jury 1654, and d. 1660. In Gen. Reg. IX, 220, one says his will was made 15 and pro. 21 Nov. of that yr. His w. Jane was b. perhaps 1597, at least was old eno. to be call. a witch in 1657, but we may rejoice that the epithet was not deadly. He left s. Thomas and Jeremiah, beside ds. of wh. one m. successiv.

He d. 1 Jan. 1653 at Bilboa in Spain, and his descend, were early at Woburn. By fam. tradit. he came from the vicinity of Berwick on Tweed. BENJAMIN, Boston, one of the found. of Brattle st. ch.

FRANCIS, Middleborough 1668, rem. to Duxbury 1672, and m. Elizabeth d. of George Soule, bef. the former date. GEORGE, Reading, by Eaton call. one of the early sett. but was, I think, s. of an earlier one, and may be mistake for Walkup, or if Walker possib. that man of Portsmouth 1689, wh. d. 7 Dec. 1748, aged 86.

Hannah in 1682; was lieut. ar. co. 1676, and d. 19 Oct. 1688. Yet that he had w. bef. m. with that wid. of Symonds, seems clear eno. for in Sept. 1662 is rec. of a deed from him to Susannah Walker, his d. of "that little shop wh. now she keeps." This opinion I still retain, tho. in Mar. 1666 is found ano. deed of hims. and Susanna, his (third) w. to their d. Susanna. ISRAEL, Woburn, had Israel, b. 29 Sept. 1672, d. at 11 yrs.; Susanna, 1 Mar. 1674; Phebe, 11 May 1676; Elizabeth wh. d. 21 Jan. 1682; Henry, 1 Feb. 1679; Hannah, 26 Apr. 1681, d. very soon; Nathaniel, 15 Apr. 1682; Israel, again, 26 July 1684, Hannah, again, 24 Sept. 1686; Abigail, 26 Sept. 1688; and Edward, 6 Nov. 1690.

JOHN, a soldier under capt. William Turner at the FAlls fight, 18 May 1676, was k. by the Ind. next day. JOHN, Charlestown, m.

SAMUEL, Boston 1654, merch. m. Sarha, d. of Joshua Scottow, wh. gave him in 1672, an est. in B. * SAMUEL, Rehoboth, eldest s. of Philip of the same, m. 11 Nov. 1681, Martha Ide, d. prob. of Nicholas the first, had Samuel, b. 11 Nov. 1682; Patience, 30 Mar. 1685; Timothy, 14 Sept. 1687; Peter, 18 Sept. 1689; Ephraim, 4 Sept. 1692; and Martha, 8 Sept. 1696; and his w. d. Aug. 1700. By sec. w. Elizabeth he had Elizabeth b. 10 Aug. 1702; and Benjamin, 12 Aug. 1703; and d. 12 Aug. 1712. He sev. in Philip's war, was constable 1682, afterwards lieut. and rep. 1705; his wid. m. John Smith of Roxbury, [[397]] SHUBAEL, Rowley, early the town clk. m. at Lynn, 29 May 1666, Patience Jewett, prob. d. of Joseph of Rowley, was some time at Reading, sw. alleg. at Haverhill, being then capt. 28 Nov. 1677, liv. at Bradford, d. Jan. 1689, and his wid. m. Richard Dole. THOMAS, Boston, brickburner, by w. Ann had Elizabeth b. 18 Aug. 1650; John, 15 Mar. 1652; Ann, 27 Feb. feb. 1654; and Samuel, 26 June 1656; beside Thomas, perhaps eldest; and d. 11 Aug. 1659. THOMAS, Sudbury, by w. Mary had Mary, b. at Boston, as Barry presumes, 9 Aug. 1661; Thomas, 22 May 1664; William, 22 July 1666; Hannah, 26 Nov. 1668, d. soon' Hannah, again, 1669; Daniel, 10 Feb. 1674; Sarah, 25 July 1677; Abigail, 29 Oct. 1679; John; and Elizabeth wh. both prob. d. young. He had encouragem. to keep the sch. at Sudbury in 1664, but in 1672, renew. his license for an ordinary. His will was pro. 1697. THOMAS, Boston, brickmaker, perhaps eldest s. of Thomas of the same, m. 25 Mar. 1662, Susanna, d. of John Collins, was freem. 1690. THOMAS, Bristol 1687, one of the founders of the town with famous capt. Church. THOMAS, Framingham, eldest s. of Thomas of the same, m. 1687, Martha, d. of Samuel How, had Thomas, b. Sept. 1688, d. soon; Samuel, 24 Sept. 1689; Obadiah; Martha; Mary; Thomas, again; Asa, 7 June 1702; Hannah, 17 June 1705; Jason, 28 Oct. 1708; and John, 1 Feb. 1714; and d. 25 Oct. 1717. WILLIAM, Salem, gave trouble to the ch. in 1637. WILLIAM, Hingham 1636, perhaps that youth, wh. came 1635, aged 15, in the Elizabeth from London, and possib. br. of Richard wh. was a fellow passeng. and may have been one of the first sett. at Eastham, where he m. 25 Feb. 1655, Sarah Snow, perhaps d. of Nicholas, had John, b. 24 Nov. foll. wh. was k. by the Ind. in 1676; William, 12 Oct. 1657, d. soon; William, again, 2 Aug. 1659; Sarah, 30 July 1662; Elizabeth 28 Sept. 1664; and Jabez, 8 July 1668. WILLIAM, Sudbury, s. of Thomas of the same, m. 1686, Sarah Goodnow, perhaps d. of the sec. John of the same, had William, b. 1687; Sarah, d. soon; Thomas, 15 Aug. 1689; John, Sept. 1693; Abigail, 15 Aug. 1702; Mary, 30 Oct. 1706; and Hezekiah, 8 Oct. 1711; and d. 1732. WILLIAM, Eastham, s. of William of the same, had William, b. 1693, and perhaps John, earlier, and Mehitable, later. ZECHARY, Stratford, s. of Robert, was educ. at Harv. says Mather's Magn. IV. 135, but left without degree on acco. of the term of study prolong. preach. first at Jamaica, L. I. 1663 to 8, when he rem. and was made min. of a portion yet no sec. parish at S. not without much disquiet, as the Col. Rec. of Trumbull II. 111, 124, shows; was among the freem. 1669; ord. 5 May 1670; but when Woodbury was sett. that yr. the new town's folk was content. with Walker, tho. he did not rem. his fam. bef. 1678; and so good Israel Chauncy contin. to serve the people of S. reunited. W. liv. [[398]] until 20 Jan. 1700, and to Cothren's Hist. of the town, we owe most of the particulars. He left wid. Susanna by wh. he had Elizabeth b. 1 Mar. 1675; but other ch. Zechariah, beside Abigail, wh. d. young, both bapt. 22 May 1670. An agreem. in Mar. 1700 betw. the wid. and Zechariah and Elizabeth W. for the partition of the est. renders this certain. One Sarah W. aged 17, came in the Elizabeth, 1635, from London, m. not many yrs. aft. John Tisdae, not Brown, as plausib. is said in Geneal. Reg. IX. 219. Roxbury town rec. tells, that Dorcas W. was bur. 14 Apr. 1640, but it is beyond my means to conject. wh. she was, unless mo. of that John, the only man of the name found in that town bef. and she were too wise to partake his heresy, or too old to rem. with her s. Farmer marks, that, in 1834, of this name, fourteen had been gr. at Harv. seven at Yale, and fourteen at the other N. E. coll. WALKLEY, HENRY, Hartford, one of the first sett. but not orig. propr. 1637. WALKUP, GEORGE, Rending, m. 4 Nov. 1688, Naomi Stephenson of the same, says Barry, wh. ment. tradit. that he was a Scotchman, had Thomas, b. 16 Mar. 1689; George, 6 Jan. 1691; Naomi, 28 Mar. 1692, d. young; Rachel, 29 Jan. 1704; Noami, again, Apr. 1709; and Thankful; and d. 1748. WALL, JMAES, Portsmouth 1631, carpenter, sent over by Mason the patentee, was a witness to the true deed to Wheelwright, Farmer says, from the Ind. in Apr. 1838, rem. to Hampton 1643, when his d. Elizabeth m. Thomas Harvey, at Exeter 1646, as our Col. Rec. II. shows, tax. at Dover 1649, but in Oct. of that yr. is call. of Exeter, carpenter, when he rec. from Waldron, his right to erect a sawmill with sixty acres, stock of cattle, &c. at D. went back to H. and in 1654 his w. was d. and prob. he d. soon. His d. Sarah m. 1663, Thomas Dow. One Joan W. emb. at London, June 1635, aged 19, in the Abigail. A JOHN, said to have come in 1630, was of Exeter 1639, and Portsmouth 1640. WALLACE, is not found in Farmer, nor, I believe, in N. E. bef. 18th cent. By the Index in sev. vols. of the Geneal. Reg. it was introd. when Wallis was not seen there, tho. in the passages referred to, if relat. to men of hte first, sec. or third generat. this name appears to be the true one. WALLEN, WALLING, or WALINE, JAMES, and JOHN, Providence, perhaps,. brs. and may be s. of Thomas of the same, gave engagem. of alleg. to the k. May 1682. RALPH, Plymouth, came in the Ann, 1623, prob. with w. Joyce, wh. surv. him. RICHARD, Providence, engag. alleg. to Charles II. June 1667, may have had perhaps John, James, and Thomas, or may have been br. of the last. THOAMS, whose name is once giv. Walwin, Providence 1645, and there on the freemen's list [[399]] 1655, may have been br. of the preced. had w. Mary wh. d. 1669, and prob. by her, s. Thomas, and other ch. d. 19 July 1674. THOMAS, Providence, perhaps s. of the preced. liv. at P. when to took the o. of alleg. in May 1682, and thro. the war with Philip. He m. 19 June 1669, Margaret, wid. perhaps of Robert Caldwell. WALLER, CHRISTOPHER, Salem 1637, tray-maker, had gr. of ld. 1649, rem. to Ipswich, there d. 1676. His will of 17 Oct. pro. 30 Nov. names w. Margaret, no ch. JOHN, Damariscove, and Monhegin, d. 1670, says our Col. Rec. V. 18, when the Gen. Ct. gave admin. of his est. JOHN, Lyme, br. of Samuel, m. 28 Dec. 1678, Mary Durin, had John, b. 10 Nov. 1679. JOSEPH, Boston, by w. Lydia, had Joseph, b. 3 Feb. 1670; rem. to Fairfield, prob. there d. 1672, his inv. 25 Dec. of that yr. shows very small est. to support wid. and two ch. Joseph and Lydia. The wid. m. John Davis, wh. rem. to Woodbury. MATTHEW, Salem 1637, rem. to Providence, there was liv. in 1655 in the list of freem. and had before been at New London, and liv. there 1667-74. He had ds. Rebecca, wh. m. Thomas Bolles, as his sec. w. and d. Feb. 1712; and Sarah, wh. in 1699, was unm. SAMUEL, New London. s. of William of Lyme, d. 1742, very aged, says Caulkins. THOMAS, Boston 1670, a shoemaker, s. of wid. Joan W. wh. m. Francis Croakham, may have been the same, wh. by w. Martha ahd Thomas, b. 26 July 1667; and by w. Mary had Mehitable, 18 Feb. 1675; Sarah, 5 Nov. 1676; and Jane, 23 June 1678. Ano. THOMAS, was of Providence, 1676. * WILLIAM, Salem 1637, may have had w. Sarah, wh. join. the ch. 1648, was of Saybrook 1649, br. of Matthew of the same, rep. 1665, the first Court after union with New Haven, and oft. aft. a lieut. 1671, m. Mary, only d. of Reynold Marvin, and had John, Samuel, William, propound. for freem. 1677, and Matthew. He was of Lyme side. WALLEY, CHRISTOPHER, Concord, freem. 1682, whose name by Paige is read Walley from the Col. Rec. and by Shurtleff, Walers; so unusual a patronymic that I doubt the skillfulness of the clk. JOHN, Boston, mariner, freem. May 1673, adm. the same day with John W. the merch. and what is perculiar. vexatious, for a series of yrs. ea. had w. Elizabeth and one or two ch. with same bapt. names; so that the confus. seems inextricab. Prob. he had sec. w. Sarah, and by her Hannah, b. 23 July 1680, and by third w. Elizabeth had possib. some ch. certain, Sarah, 27 Apr. 1695. But the first w. m. 3 Apr. 1661, was Elizabeth d. of Robert Wing, wh. brot. him John, 27 Aug. 1662; Elizabeth 8 May 1665; Elizabeth again, 28 July 1667; Samuel, 1 Feb. 1671; Thomas, 26 Feb. 1673; and after many hours devot. at var. times to his name, I acknowledge little confdence and less satisfact. JOHN, Boston, s. of Rev. Thomas of London, b. in Eng. and came bef. his f. by w. prob. nam. Sarah had Sarah, [[400]] 25 Aug. 1684; Abiel, 30 Aug. 1686; William 23 Dec. 1687; John, 19 July 1689; but Bridgman makes him b. at Bristol, 11 Sept. 1691. Strong suspicion is felt that some of these may be ch. of the other John. But indeed the whole is uncert. exc. John. He was of ar. co. 1671, freem. 1673, capt. in the milit. 1679, in 1683 rem. to Barnstable, or other town in Plymouth jurisdict. was engag. much in settlem. of Bristol, and assist. of that col. 1684, and one of the council nam. in the royal commissn. to Andros 1686. The yr. foll. the overthrow of A. Walley had the disadvantage of being chief milit. officer in the expedit. of 1690 against Quebec, wh. Sir William Phips ahd project. and of wh. he took all the command; and thus was Walley reliev. of real responsibility, tho. expos. to pop. censure by the errors of Phips. Sir W. on board ship summoned the city, and directed all the land operations of the campaign, for wh. he had no adequate skill, and in the ill success of wh. his eminent. incaustious panegyrist natural. saw more of "the hand of heaven' than of the ignorance and rashness of his hero. See Magn. II. 51, the most curious biogr. of Sir William Phips, afterwards made Gov. of Mass. by hte f. of Mather dictat. to King William III. Hutch. Hist. of Mass. I. gives Walley's acco. in Appx. In the same charter W. was nam. of the Council, and by the Gov. and Council appoint. one of the Sup. Ct. judges 1700-11. He d. 11 Jan. 1712, aged 68, wh. might be suspect. for 58, if as Bridgman, 34, says he was b. at our Barnstable. Nothing can be more certain, than that he was b. at least 8 or 10 yrs. bef. the com. of Rev. Thomas, for he was an Assist. of Plym Col. as early as 1684, beside being sw. as freem. 1673. His d. Sarah m. first Charles Chauncy of Boston, merch. and bore him 1 Jan. 1705, a s. of the same name, one of the most disting. divines on our side of the ocean, and prob. she aft. m. a Willoughby, and Elizabeth m. 29 Oct. 1713, Rev. Joseph Sewall, and with much study good fam. connex. can be learn. from his will of 4 Feb. preced. pro. 25 foll. It makes s. John Excor. gives him beside ho. ld. and whf. L3,000, two unm. ds. Elizabeth and Lydia L1,500. ea. and refers to no other ch. beside Sarah, wid. of Charles Chauncy, nam. her four ch. Charles, Mary, Isaac, and Walley; but neph. and niece had favor, as Hannah, w. of James Leonard, d. of Thomas W. the br. of testat. with her two ch. by first h. William Stone, and also Elizabeth Admas, ano. d. of said br. Thomas. JOHN, Boston, s. of the preced. m. it is prob. Elizabeth d. of the sec. John Alden, perhaps d. in distant ld. and his wid. m. 30 Apr. 1702, Simon Willard, s. of Rev. Samuel. THOMAS, Barnstable, one of the eight min. wh. came from London (where he had been rect. of St. Mary's Whitechapel) in the Society, capt. Peirce, arr. at Boston 24 May 1663, bring. not as too oft. said s. John, but ds. Hannah, wh. m. 10 May 1664, Samuel Allyn or [[401]] Allen, acc. Bridgman, 34, but I prefer the old Col. record, that makes George Shove (tho. so much reverence, as to be call. Mr. without a bapt. name) to m. 18 Feb. 1674, 5, Mistris Walley, wh. in her maidenly glory as d. of Rev. Thomas, need. not other designat. and Mary, wh. m. Nov. 1668, Job Crocker. He perhaps had other ch. wh. d. in London; was call. a man of great esteem, d. on Sunday, 24 Mar. 1678, aged 61, as in Farmer, wh. mistook the yr. by foll. the law, when custom had begun to change the enumera. of the first month in the yr. for the forward not the backward yr. as well from the first day, as from the 25th. Bradstreet's Journal of May 1678 ment. of the d. in Feb. or Mar. preced. settles the question. See Geneal. Reg. IX. 49. His wid. Hannah m. THOMAS, Barnstable, s. of the preced. prob. some yrs. older than John, the milit. com. had fam. we kn. as two m. ds. are ment. in the will of their uncle. Perhaps he had one or more sons; but no certain kn. has reach. me. Late. I have learn. that my conclus. of the m. of George Shove with d. of first Thomas, rather than wid. of the sec. was wrong. This sec. Barntsbale Thomas, wh. by early d. bef. his f. led to the false infer. had m. Hannah, d. of Nathaniel Bacon, and she next m. as above said, Rev. George Shove of Taunton. THOMAS, Boston, m. 22 Sept. 1692, Christian Johnson; but I kn. nothing more of either. WILLIAM, Charlestown, m. 18 Feb. 1684, Sarah Marshal, perhaps d. of William. WILLINGFORD, or WALLINSFORD, JOHN, Dover, m. 16 Dec. 1687, Mary, d. of John Tuttle the sec. of the same, had Thomas, b. a. 1697, and prob. others, bef. or aft. or both. NICHOLAS, Bradford, m. 4 Dec. 1678, Elizabeth Palmer. It is strange that we kn. nothing of this fam. for wid. Sarah hav. ten ch. wish. admin. of her h. (one of the ch. may have been that Nicholas) applied to the Gen. Ct. 1683 for some purpose, on wh. the Ct. resolv. that the County Ct. in Essex was authoriz. to do all that was proper. I conject. that her h. was Nicholas of Rowley 1663. Only ch. Nicholas is ment. by wid. Elizabeth when she took admin. June 1682. WALLINGTON, NICHOLAS, Newbury, "a poor boy" says customho. rec. of the passeng. in the Confidence from Southampton 1638, when by the place in wh. his name is insert. I judge that he was, with others, sev. of Stephen Kent; a short time was of Rowley, a. 1663; m. 30 Aug. 1654, says Coffin, Sarah, d. of Henry Travers of N. had John, b. 16 Sept. 1655, d. soon; Nicholas, 2 Jan. 1657; John, again, 7 Apr. 1659; Sarah, 20 May 1661; Mary, 20 Aug. 1663; James, 6 Oct. 1665; Hannah, 27 Nov. 1667; William, 7 Feb. 1670; and perhaps others aft. was freem. 1670; and Coffin says was tak. at sea, perhaps sev. yrs. aft. by some Barbary corsair, no doubt, and never came back. My suggest. is that he is the h. of that wid. wh. is ment. in the article preced. for sometimes the name is Wallingford. WALLIS, or WALLACE, GEORGE, a youth of 15 yrs. came in the Abigail, from London 1635, perhaps s. of Ralph, wh. came at the same time; in Dec. 1656 was of Rumney Marsh, part of Boston now Chelsea, there had good est. may have ben f. of the foll. GEORGE, Portsmouth, [[402]] m. 18 Nov. 1686, Ann, perhaps d. of Richard Shortridge, was of the gr. jury that yr. JOHN, Woburn, d. 8 Aug. 1670. JOHN, Scarborough 1658, perhaps in the Ind. war was driv. to Gloucester, there was liv. 1678, d. 1690. NATHANIEL, Scarborough, perhaps br. of John, was from Cornwall, constable for Falmouth, and sw. alleg. to Mass. 1658; but in July 1660 had three ch. bapt. by Robert Jordan, wh. adher. to the ch. of Eng. in that her lowest hour of distress, and was censur. for it, by our Gen. Ct. as the col. Rec. IV. shows. I kn. he had w. Margaret, and s. John, wh. may have been one of those bapt. acc. the rubric; and the fam. was driv. to the W. by the Ind. war, and he sat down at Beverly, call. hims. 58 yrs. in 1692, and d. 18 Oct. 1709, and his wid. d. 14 May 1711, aged more than 80. Shurtleff has print. the name as represent. on the rec. by hte wild hand of the clk. but in Hutch. Coll. 398, and Paige's list of Freemen, I imagine we have the true one. * NICHOLAS, Ipswich, s. of Robert, m. a d. of Humphrey Bradstreet, had Samuel, prob. others bef. or aft. or both, was freem. 1674, and rep. 1691. RALPH, came in the Abigail from London 1635, aged 40, perhaps bring. s. George, at least, we kn. that a youth with that name was fell. passeng. RICHARD, Saybrook 1659, rem. next yr. to Norwich. ROBERT, Ipswich 1638, had Nicholas, perhaps more. THOMAS, Freem. of Mass. 1643, with prefix of respect, yet may inq. for his resid. is not successf. WILLIAM, Charlestown, adm. of the ch. 30 Nov. 1642, of wh. no more than Budington's copy of the copy of that rec. (the orig. being lost) is kn. to me; yet I see that somebody of this surname at C. had a ch. b. a. 1659, tho. the clk. omits name and date. WALSALL, or WALSHALL, WILLIAM, Boston, with his w. were recommend. by the ch. to that of Lynn, 10 July 1647; but of h. of w. I find not, how or when either was recd. of our ch. WALSBY, or WALSBEE, DAVID, Braintree, freem. 1651, by w. Hannah, wh. d. 2 Feb. 1656, had Samuel, b. 9 Apr. 1`651; and David, 1655; and 24 Sept. next yr. m. sec. w. Ruth Ball. DAVID, Boston, s. prob. of the preced. WALSINGHAM, is a fictitious name, I presume, for Francis Johnson of Marblehead, by Farmer adopt. from Dana's Hist. Disc. p. 7. See Johnson. WALSTON, or WALSTONE, JOHN, Killingworth, perhaps s. of Thomas of Hartford, m. 1677, Ann, d. of Benjamin Wright of Guilford, had Thomas, b. 1678; and d. 1680. His wid. m. 7 Nov. 1683, Dr. Peter Tallman of Guilford. THOMAS, Hartford 1644, was fin. 20s. for inveighl. the affections of Mr. Olcott's maid. That prohibit. of law was borrowed by Conn. from Mass. The name seems an unusual one; yet in the Truelove, at London, 1635, the latest ship in that yr. for this [[403]] country, emb. Jane w. aged 19, wh. may have been sis. of the Hartford youth. WALTER, or WALTERS, NATHANIEL, Roxbury, s. of Rev. Nehemiah, ord. 10 July 1734, min. of 2d ch. m. 24 Apr. 1635, Rebecca, d. of William Abbot of Brookline, had Sarah, b. 29 Mar. 1736; William, 7 Oct. 1737, H. C. 1756, the rector of Trinity ch. and aft. of Christ ch. in Boston; Rebecca, 19 Apr. 1739; Nehemiah, 13 June 1741; and Maria, 10 Mar. 1743; and he d. 11 Mar. 1776; and his wid. d. 30 Apr. 1790. NEHEMIAH, Roxbury, br. of Thomas, b. at Youghall in Ireland, had tradit. says he was sent by his f. to be apprent. to an upholsterer inBoston in 1674, but H. C. 1684, ord. 17 Oct. 1688, collea. with blessed John Eliot at first ch. freem. 1690, m. 1691, Sarah, third d. of Rev. Increase Mather, had Increase, b. 8 Oct. 1692, H. C. 1711, d. at 26 yrs.; Sarah, 4 Mar. 1695; Thomas, 13 Dec. 1696, H. C. 1713; Hannah, 8 July 1699; Nehemiah, 22 Apr. 1701, d. within a yr.; Maria, 4 Aug. 1703; Nehemiah, again, 17 Sept. 1705, d. young; Samuel, 24 July 1710; and Nathaniel, 15 Aug. 1711, H. C.1729; was an able man, d. 17 Sept. 1750, and his wid. d. 1758. Sarah m. 25 Sept. 1723, John Walley; Hannah m. 18 Sept. 1718, Rev. Caleb Trowbridge of Groton as his sec. w. THOMAS, Boston, a lawyer, said to have sprung from Lancashire, but sett. at Youghall in Ireland, where his s. Nehemiah was b. 1663, wh. he brot. a. 1678, and 2 Nov. 1680 join. Mather's ch. He had sec. w. Abigail, wid. of David East, formerly wid. of Jonathan Woodbury, d. of Henry Phillips, as the pedigree in Gen. Reg. VIII. 209 shows, and by her had Nathaniel, b. 30 Jan. 1688; and Abigail, wh. it is said, m. 18 May 1721, Benjamin Wolcott; and d. bef. Dec. 1698. THOMAS, Falmouth, is by Willis I. 215, said to have come wiht w. Hannah, a. 1682, from Salem,where he was mariner, and sett. at Perpooduck, wh. is now the town of Cape Elizabeth lying across the riv. from Portland, and he adds, that his w. was 25 yrs. old at that date; and further, that his s. William 1732 liv. in Boston, in a deed convey. his f.'s prop. at Falmouth, call. hims. "s. and only heir." But he errs in mak. the late Bp. W. of this stock. THOMAS, Roxbury, s. of Rev. Nehemiah, ord. 29 Oct. 1718, collea. with his f. m. 25 Dec. foll. Rebecca, d. of Rev. Joseph Belcher of Dedham, had Rebecca, b. 1722; and he d. of consumpt. 10 Jan. 1725 hav. much disting. hims. in his short serv. WILLIAM, Boston 1674. Sometimes this name of wh. six, Farmer says, had been gr. in 1834 at Harv. one at Yale, and two at other N. E. coll. had final s. WALTERS, JACOB, and STEPHEN, whose ws. Sarah and Sarah join. the Charlestown ch. 1681 and 2, acc. Budington, 250, seem to me, more truly, as Frothingham, 183, call. Waters, wh. see. [[404]] WALTHAM, * HENRY, Weymouth merch. by his business relat. I judge he was from Weymouth, in Co. Dorset, engag. 1635, with Dudley and others, to promote fishing trade, rep. 1636, had Henry, Thomas, William, Ann, and Phillis, prob. all b. in Eng. d. 29 Jan. 1659, unless this were his s. of the same name. HENRY, Weymouth, s. of the preced. may have had Jonathan, and other ch. * THOMAS, Weymouth, s. of Henry the first, was rep. 1636. WILLIAM, Weymouth, br. of the preced. fin. by Gen.

Oft. it is Walton in the rec. but that in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 349, call. him s. of William, may be a mistake of the bapt. name as well as spell. of surname. WALTON, GEORGE, Exeter 1639, had been fin. for swear. 1638, as our Col. Rec. I. shows; was of Dover 1648, was a vintner, 1662, at Portsmouth, had George, b. 1649; Shadrach, 1658; Dorcas; Mary; and perhaps other ch. by w. Alice; and d. 1686, at the neighbo. town of Newcastle, or Great isl. aged more than 70. His relig. was not suffic. in his old age, to protect him from diabolic. disturb. in 1682, or wh. in Mather's Magn. VI. 69, some triffing report may have seen, but it is slightly shorten. from his f.'s Remarkab. Providences. Similar occur. in the same yr. at the same neighbor. are relat. in the next. artic. in both works. Much of the same wretched stuff in the Magnalia, was by the s. borrowed from the same storehouse. In a London publicat. LITHOBOLIA, or the stone-throwing Devil, of wh. the Library of Harv. Coll. possess. an orig. copy as may be read, 1698, reprint. as the first article in New York Hist. Magaz. for Nov. 1861, the childish credul. of both f. and s. is outdone. Yet the incidents so exact. concur. and even the phraseol. of not a few of the tales so near. corresponds, that rashness will not imput. to the surmise, of assist. by either Increase or Cotton in supervis. the MS. of this tract, for certain. one (if one, both) enjoy. perusal of it, soon aft. it came from the press; and it was the proper nutrim. for their credulity. HENRY, Boston, by w. Mary, had Job. b. 29 Sept. 1639; Adam, 8 May 1643; William, 29 Sept. 1645. JOHN, Portsmouth 1640, had come, a. 1638, from Plymouth, in Eng. and aft. liv. here about 20 yrs. was sent by our Gen. Ct. home for his w. in the voyage ws tak. by the Dutch, and d. soon aft. JOSIAH, Marblehead, youngest s. of Rev. William, a. petitnr. in 1668, was prob. unm. a mariner, struck by lightning 23 June 1673, at sea, made nuncup. will, as Essex Inst. II. 126 gives. NATHANIEL, Marblehead 1658, s. of Rev. William, was there much esteem. freem. 1680. SAMUEL, Marblehead 1668-74, s. of Rev. William, is by Eaton, nam. among the early sett. at Reading. * SHADRACH, Newcastle, N. H. s. of George, was, in 1689, aft. overthrow of Andros, desir. of union betw. Mass. and N. H. a capt. and major, in Ind. war; engag. in the campaign of 1707 for conq. of Nova Scotia; made a royal counsellor 1716, d. 3 Oct. 1741, aged 83. He was f. of George; Benjamin, H. C. 1729; Elizabeth; Abigail; Sarah; and Mary. * THOMAS, Weymouth, s. I suppose, of the first Henry, rep. 1636. WILLIAM, Marblehead 1639, had been bred at Emanuel Coll. Cambridge, where he took his degr. 1621 and 1625, and was, no doubt, ord. and serv. at Seaton, Co. Devon, where it is kn. that sev. of [[405]] his ch. were b. came in some sh. earlier than his common. been thot. at least drew for houselot at Hingham, 18 Sept. 1635, and was freem. 3 Mar. foll. was but few yrs. at H. prob. longer at M. certain. in 1648, perhaps at Lynn a short time a. 1642, and may have taught for most of his latter yrs. part of ea. season, perhaps at Manchester, to wh,. he was activ. as a propr. of Jeffery's cove, in bring. the governm. to gr. incorp. 1645, and d. in autum 1668; inv. of his est. was tak. 23 Nov. of this yr. and he had allowance for his min. serv. up to that time at Marblehead. His w. was Elizabeth ch. b. in Eng. were, as is said, John, 6 Apr. 1627; Elizabeth 27 Oct. 1629; Martha, 26 Apr. 1632; and at H. was Nathaniel, 3 Mar. 1636; and at M. were Samuel, 5, bapt. 20 June 1639; Josiah 20 Dec. 1640, bapt. 2 Jan. foll.; and Mary, 14, bapt. 26 May 1644. Elizabeth m. a Conant; Martha m. a Munjoy, perhaps Walter; and Mary m. Robert Bartlett. Mather spelt this, in his list of min. of the first classis, Magn. III. 3, Waltham, and his authority (suppos. he must sometimes be right) I prefereed to Johnsons's in my note to Winthrop I. 169, for wh. Dr. Farmer admin, gentle rebuke. Increase Mather relat. in Remark. Providence. the d. of Josiah by lightning, spells the name correctly, as I now have. WALVER, ABRAHAM, H. C. 1647, is all that can be told of this man on our side of the Atlantic. He went home, and was min. in the shire where his fam. friends liv. as Hutch. I. tells. WALWIN, THOMAS. See Wallen. WALWORTH, WILLIAM, New London 1691, with w. Abigail, came from Eng. on invit. of Gov.

WANNERTON, THOMAS, Portsmouth, Kittery, and anywhere along shore, where drink was easily got, a milit. offic. in serv. of Mason, sent prob. in 1633, when his Gov. Neal was req. to go home; but he was also one of the patentees in the Laconia gr. perhaps had no w. or ch. yet honor. with agencies of Mass. 1641 and 2; and was k. 1644 in a wild [[406]] affray growing out of the rivalry of La Tour and D'Aulney, the French govs. See Winthrop II. 178,. WANTON, EDWARD, Boston, ship-carpenter, had Edward, b. 1658; and Margaret, 1661, d. young; in this yr. rem. to Scituate, there had, by sec. w.

His wid. d. 16 July 1726. JAMES, Ipswich, s. of Rev. Nathaniel, b. in Eng. prob. at Stondon, Co. Essex, of wh. his f. was incumb. bred at Harv. Coll. where he was unfortun. in receiv. punishm. by whipp. at the hds. of the [[408]] Pres. in June 1644, and more unfortun. in deserv. the disgrace, yet thot. worthy to have his degr. of A. B. next yr. This strange event is told by Winthrop II. 166, without giv. names, wh. are found in the very valua. Hist. of Newbury, by Coffin, 41. His assoc. in the infamy of the juvenile offence, was a s. of Rev. Thomas Welde. He went home, soon aft. prob. with his f. wh. procur. favor for him at Oxford, where he was in 1648, made a fellow of Magdalen, and had a master's degr. and in 1649, an M. D. JOHN, Ipswich, physician, had perhaps liv. in Boston, for a mortg. to him of est. rec. here Vol. X. 233, titles him now of Ipswich, chirurg. and the date is 9 Oct. 1652. His Excor. Robert Paine sold, Dec. 1677, the Boston est. to William Hudson. He perhaps resid. at Hampton 1640, some time at Salem,, was cous. of Rev. John, and that benefact. of Harv. Coll. ment. by Pierce, 35; also, I presume, the freem. of 1643; in his will of 28 Dec. 1652, pro. on new. yrs. day, 25 Mar. 1656, speaks of no. w. or ch. [See abstr. in Essex Inst. I. 50.] His benefaction to Harv. Coll. was realiz. in 1658, as the invaluab. History, by Quincy, shows us: "obtained in horses L72." See I. 513 of that work. JOHN, Haverhill, elder br. of James, b. at Haverhill in Co. Suffk. 5 Nov. 1606, as Mather tells, III. cap. 31, or p. 167 in the London ed. of Magn. Yet "where his educ. was, I have not been inform." he says, "the first notice of him that occurs to me, being in the yr. 1639, when he came over into these parts." In Eng. I found that he was matric. at Emanuel, 1622, and had his A. B. 1626, and A. M. 1630. He had begun his serv. in Eng. "at a very small place" wh. was Hadleigh in Co. Suffk. and in this country, preach. first at Kittery or York in 1641, as Winthrop II. 29 relates, but Mather, wh. loves always to be indefinite, and sometimes hides his ignorance under periphrasis, would magnify his watch over the flock at H. to "as many yrs. as there are sabbaths in the yr." We kn. that he was chos. and ord. in Oct. 1645, when the ch. was gather. Winthrop II. 252; and that flock he could, of course, serve but 48 yrs. He d. 27 Dec. 1693; and could the truth ever be sufficient for the author of the Magnalia, he might have call. it a very honor. and protract. course of duty. On 19 Nov. preced. he preach. an excell. sermon, enter. the 88th yr. of his age, "the only sermon that ever was. or perhaps ever will be preach. in this country, at such an age," adds the eclesiast. historian, tho. since that day sev. more aged pastors have in like kind, obey. their call. He was prob. the freem. of 3 May 1649, By his w. Alice Edmunds. brot. from Eng. wh. d. bef. him, he had Elizabeth b. 7 Apr. 1647, wh. m. 1665 Nathaniel Saltonstall, and d. 29 Apr. 1714; and Mary, 24 June 1649, m. e June 1672, Rev. Benjamin Woodbridge, and d. 11 Oct. 1680. JOHN, Newton, s. prob. eldest of William of Sudbury, b. in Eng. a. 1626, m. a 1650, Hannah, d. of [[409]] the first Edward Jackson of the same, had Hannah; John, b. 26 Jan. 1654, d. in few mos.; Rebecca, 15 June 1655; John, again, 8 Mar. 1658; Elizabeth 18 June 1660; Deborah, 19 July 1662; William, 19 Nov. 1664; Richard, 15 Nov. 1666; Mercy, 27 Jan. 1669; Edward, 13 Mar. 1671; Eleazer, 26 Feb. 1673; Jonathan, 22 Apr. 1674; and Joseph, 15 Nov. 1677. He was of the first selectmen when the town was set off from Cambridge, freem. 1685, rep. 1689 and sev. yrs. aft. and d. 2 July 1708. His w. had d. 21 Apr. 1704, aged 73. Hannah m. 8 June 1670, Thomas Greenwood; Elizabeth m. 7 June 1679, Joshua Fuller; and Deborah m. 2 Feb. 1682, John Wythe. JOHN, Newport, came late in life, aft. hear. of d. of his s. Thomas, as inconsisit. tradit. tells, prob. a. 1690, took charge of his gr. childr. and d. says the gr.-st. in Apr. 1698, aged 79. Possib. he had serv. fifty-five yrs. bef. in the Parlim. army in the gr. civil war, and that was the origin of the fable as to Thomas. But Thomas d. at mid. age, and as the sacred tradit. of serv. in Cromwell's army belongs to him, and not his f. it will be seen that he was not old eno. to be a powder monkey to the gr. Protector. JOHN, Branford, a serg. s. of the wid. Joyce W. was rep. 1666, may have been there many yrs. and one of the signers of the new planta. and ch. covenant, Jan. 1668; by w. Sarah, had John, b. 10 Apr. 1650; Sarah; Phebe, 11 June 1655; Nathaniel, 30 Nov. 1656; Abigail, 4 June 1658; and Josiah, 16 Nov. 1661. He rem. soon aft. to N. J. JOHN, Wethersfield, s. of the wid. Joyce, of wh. nothing more is kn. that by her will of 15 Nov. 1640. JOHN, Middletown, perhaps s. of Andrew of Wethersfield, prob. the man sw. freem.

Dr. T. W. Harris. Prob. he d. early in 1684, for his inv. is of the date of 22 Feb. in that yr. and his wid. m. Josiah Gilbert of Wethersfield. JOHN, Branford 1663, drew lot that yr. in 1665, unit. with the other John and many others in project. rem. to N. J.

MARMADUKE, Newport, there in 1638, adm. freem. 1640, and among them 1655. MILES, Salem 1639, from Erith in Kent, few miles below London, on the Thames, and only two from Crayford, came with w.

His wid. d. 7 Feb. 1768, aged 85. NATHANIEL, Ipswich, came in 1634, was b. 1570 at Haverhill in Suffk. where his f. John was a min. in high esteem by the Puritans of Elizabeth's day, bred at the Univ. of Cambridge, where he was [[411]] mataric. of Emanuel Coll. 1569, and proceed. A. M. 1603, serv. as curate at St. James, Duke's place, London, first, and soon aft. had the living of Stondon Massey's in Co. Essex, where he was resid. when recommend. for the serv. of the Gov. and Comp. of Mass. Bay in 1629, by the Rev. John White of Dorchester, our effic. friend. But he was not at liberty to leave his flock, until he was driv. from his place, where a new rector was induct. Aug. 1633. Greatly was he honored here, in 1639 unit. with Cotton to frame a body of laws, to wh. prob. he was in some degree equal, as Mather tells us, in a few lines with wh. he begins his life of the s. John, he had first been a student of the law. Yet he was more extensive, kn. by his wit. in the over flow of wh. he produc. the Simple Cobler of Agawam, wh. by its humor almost compensates for his asperity. He preach. the sermon for the gen. election, 1641, and was very judicious in dissuad. our governm. from taking side in the strange contest betw. La Tour and D'Aulney 2 yrs. later; went home bef. 1647, and preach. to the Ho. of Commons, on the month. fast, 30 June in that yr. obtain. the living of Shenfield in Essex, where he d. 1653. Most clear. did his independ. shine at that day of trouble, for he publis. that sermon, when Parliament was afraid to.

Mary, m. a. 1667, had Alice, b. 14 Nov. 1668; William, 7 Jan. 1670; Obadiah, 18 Sept. 1672; Bethia, 1674, d. soon; Mary, 4 May 1676; Jane, 1677; Edmund, 21 Jan. 1679; Sarah, 29 Jan. 1681; Richard, 26 Apr. 1683; Elizabeth 4 Dec. 1685; Hannah, 3 Jan. 1688; Eleazer, 2 Nov. 1689; and Prudence, 1691; was rep. 1689, and d. 5 Jan. leaving sec. w. Joanna, m. 20 Dec. 1693, as the fam. report is, d. of Isaac Mixer, and wid. of Joseph Harrington, wh. outliv. him. But I am convinc. that the Ward Family, p. 12, has here fallen into error, for on p. 23 it makes Obadiah, s. of Richard, m. on the same day, [[412]] the same Joanna, that, on the former page, was giv. to his uncle of the same name. OBADIAH, Sudbury, s. of Richard of the same, m. 20 Dec. 1693, Joanna, the young wid. of Joseph Harrington, d. of Isaac Mixer, had Richard, b. 1694; Obadiah, 1695; Hannah, 1696; Daniel, 1700; Sarah, 1701; Dorinada or Dorinda (if either be not too absurd a name), 26 Nov. 1702; Uriah, 23 Dec. 1704, k. by the Ind. at Rutland, in garrison, 3 Aug. 1724; Isaac, Mar. 1707; and Thankful, 15 Feb. 1712; rem. 1716 to Worcester, there d. 17 Dec. 1717, in his will of the preced. day, prov. Joanna to be his wife, not his uncle's giv. only to his two oldest ch. portions of his prop. and residue to his w. at her discret. for the other ch. The wid. liv. with s. Isaac in Framingham 1725. OBADIAH, Marlborough, s. of the first Obadiah, by w. Elizabeth had Hannah, b. 1704; Jedediah, 14 Apr. 1706; and Jabez, 1707. By sec. w. Elizabeth Flood, m. 12 Dec. 1711, he had Thankful, b.

His wid. m. 22 Nov. 1667, Daniel Stone. RICHARD, Sudbury, s. of William the first, b. in Eng. m. 8 Sept. 1661, Mary Moore, had Obadiah, b. 10 Dec. 1663; and Lydia, 16 Mar. 1665; was drown. 31 Mar. 1666. His wid. m. 22 Nov. 1667, Daniel Stone. RICHARD, Newton, s. of the first John of the same, m. 15 Dec. 1690, Thankful, d. of Trowbridge, the first of the same, had Lydia, b. 13 Aug. 1692; Thomas, 8 Jan. 1694.

He was Gov. of the Col. 1741 and 2, d. 21 Aug. 1763; and his wid. d. 1767. ROBERT, s. of the wid. Joyce of Wethersfield, nam. in her will Nov. 1640, but of wh. no more is kn. by me, unless he be the Robert of Boston wh. by. w. Sarah had Hannah, b. 6 May 1660. ROGER, by the diligent Farmer adm freem. of Mass 1637, must be a supernum. for no such person is found in the rec. of that yr. nor indeed does a single baptismal Roger turn up. SAMUEL, Hingham 1636, cooper, freem. 9 Mar. 1637, was rep. that yr. in Nov. and the next in Mar. made town clk. 1646; may have been f. of Henry, and perhaps had more ch. I presume he is the benefactor [[413]] wh. gave to Harv. Col. the island lying off the harbor of Hingham, call. Bunkin's of Ward's island, and h e may be the same that liv. 1658-77 at Charlestown, and d. there, 31 Aug. 1682, aged 89, wh. as Noahdiah Russell in his Diary tells, gave L4. to the Coll. See Geneal. Reg. VII. 57. His wid. Frances, wh. was not his first w. d. 10 June 1690, aged 83. SAMUEL, Marlborough, s. of William of the same, b. prob. in Eng. took o. of fidel. 1652; was capt. and rep. 1679 and 80; m. 6 June 1667, Sarah, d. of John Howe of the same, had Sarah, b. 22 Apr. 1668; Joseph, 1670; Elizabeth 1672; Mary, 1676; Samuel, Mar. 1678; Bethia, 25 May 1681; and Daniel, 1687, d. at 13 yrs. and his w. d. 11 Aug. 1707. His will of 22 May 1727, near 2 yrs. bef. his d. was disput. by the heirs on acco. of most of the est. being giv. to s. Samuel. He had sec. w. Elizabeth wh. outliv. him. Conject. is wholly unable to explain, wh. she was. SAMUEL, Fairfield, among the freem. in the list of 1669, s. of the first Andrew, and d. bef. 1693, leav. wid. Hannah, and ch. Edmund, Samuel, and ds. Hannah, and Sarah, if not more. His wid. had been w. of Jonathan Nichols of Stratford, and was not mo. of any of these ch. SAMUEL, Branford, freem. 1668, m. 1658, Mary Carter, was not of the number wh. rem. to N. J. as he is found at B. 1679. SAMUEL, Marblehead, freem. 1665, serg. next yr. lieut. 1670, capt. 1679, m. prob. for sec. w. Sarah, wid. of Mr. Richard Hubbard of Ipswich, d. of Gov. Bradstreet, and he d. a maj. in the expensive and fruitless crusade of Phips against Quebec, in 1690. SAMUEL, Boston, a cooper whose orig. in unkn. to me, m. 10 Dec. 1691, Mary, wid. of Ephraim Sale, had Joanna, b. 31 Oct. 1692; Mary, 27 Nov. 1694, prob. d. soon; Samuel, 22 June 1696; and Mary again, 19 Nov. 1699. His will of 4 Oct. 1701, pro. 17 Sept. 1702, gives L3. to ea. of his brs. John and Thomas, a silver spoon to ea. of the ch. of his w. by her former h. two thirds of his est. and residue to Joanna, so that we may be sure she was the only surv. of his own four. SAMULE, Marlborough, s. of Samuel of the same, was perhaps the freem. 1691, when it was desirable to make a show of names; by w. Mary had Ephraim, b. 26 June 1705; Absalom, 20 Sept. 1706; Tamar, 11 Feb. 1708; Samuel, 11 Jan. 1710; Ursula, 23 Aug. 1711; Uriah, 2 Aug. 1716; and Benjamin, 10 Nov. 1719; and d. 27 Feb. 1738. His wid. d. 17 Jan. 1758. THOMAS, Hampton 1639, had prob. come in 1630, and serv. that yr. on the inquest relat. to d. of Bratcher, caused by blows from Walter Palmer, freem. 18 May 1642, when the name is spell. Worde, not as Farmer says 1635, had perhaps other ch. beside Mary, b. a. 1652, wh. m. John Dearborn, and d. 14 Dec. 1725. THOMAS, Milford 1657. THOMAS, Newport, s. of John, came aft. 1690, from Gloucestersh. as is said, had serv. as the most ridiculous tradit. tells, in Cromwell's army, for its crowning serv. was [[414]] render. on 3 Sept. 1651, in the dreadful field of Worcester, bef. he was eleven yrs. of age; was a Bapt. freem. 1671, chos. an Assit. 1679, when he was only 38 yrs. old, and the progenit. of the disting. family of W. in that State. He d. 25 Sept. 1689, hav. made his will, 9 June 1683, wh. was pro. 2 June 1690. In it names ch. Thomas, Margaret, and Mary. By his first w. he had two ds. only, Mary, wh. m. Josiah, s. of Gov. Benedict Arnold, Margaret, wh. m. Robert Weightman, and d. 26 Sept. 1728, aged 57, neither of wh. left issue that liv. to be m. and by sec. w. he had two s. only, Thomas, b. a. 1683, and Richard, 15 Apr. 1689, wh. bec. the Gov. of the Col. That he was freem. of Portsmouth 1655, might be seen on p. 300 of R. I. Col. Rec. but that surname is a mistake for Waite, as Stiles copied it neatly a century bef. His wid. Amy or Ammi m. Arnold Collins, and d. 11 Jan. 1732. Thomas the s. d. 22 Dec. 1695, aged 12 yrs. and the fam. name was perpet. by the s. not nam. in the testament. THOMAS, Middletown, eldest s. of William by his sec. w. m. 6 Dec. 1683, Hannah, d. of James Tappan. He had sec. w. Elizabeth m. in 1714, and d. 2 June 1728. WILLIAM, Sudbury, came in 1639, with five ch. prob. John, b. a. 1626; Joanna, a. 1628; Obaddiah, a. 1632; Richard, a. 1635; and Deborah, a. 1637; and sec. w. Elizabeth had b. here, Hannah, a. 1639; William, 22 Jan. 1640; Samuel, 24 Sept. 1641; Elizabeth 14 Apr. 1643; Increase, 22 Feb. 1645; Hopestill, 24 Feb. 1646; Eleazer, a. 1649; and Bethia, a. 1658; was freem. 1643, rep. 1644; rem. 1660 to Marlborough, and was rep. 1666; was deac. at the first organiz. of the ch. and d. 10 Aug. 1687. He made his will, 6 Apr. the yr. bef. and his wid. d. 9 Dec. 1700, aged 86. WILLIAM, Wetheresfield, s. of the wid. Joyce W. of wh. no more is kn. than the ment. in the will of his mo. Nov. 1640, unless, wh. is not very prob. he be the freem. of Fairfield 1657-1669, wh. perhaps was s. of the first Andrew. WILLIAM, Fairfield, s. of the first Andrew, had good est. and his only heir was his wid. Esther, wh. m. 1678, Ebenezer Hawley, was an ens. and the inv. bears date 4 Mar. 1676. WILLIAM, Middletown, perhaps s. of the wid. Joyce, by w. Sarah had William, b. 24 June 1659, d. young; as did the mo. soon; and he m. 28 Mar. 1660, sec. w. Phebe, by wh. he had Thomas, 7 Feb. 1661; Phebe, 17 Mar. 1663; William, again, 2 Aug. 1665; Sarah, 18 Dec. 1667; Ann, 20 Mar. 1670; Dorothy, 5 Mar. 1672; Susanna, 6 June 1674; and John, 12 May 1678; and d. 28 Mar. 1690. His wid. d. 1 Sept. 1691. At the date of his will, 25 Dec. 1688, all the eight last b. ch were liv. Sarah m. 14 June 1688, Benjamin Hands. WILLIAM, Marlborough, s. of the first William, m. 4 or 6 Sept. 1679, Hannah, d. of Solomon Johnson, wid. of Gershom Eames, not d. as the Memoir in Geneal. Reg. V. 271, gives it, had William, b. 27 May or Mar. as the valuab. Ward Family, [[415]] p. 14, says, 1680; Bethia, 1682; Nahum, 18 Dec. 1684; Elisha, 12 Jan. 1687, k. by the Ind. in his 23d yr.; Bathsheba, 16 May 1689, d. young; and Gershom, 3 Jan. 1694; and d. 25 Nov. 1697. His wid. d. 8 Dec. 1720. WILLIAM, Newton, s. of John of the same, and gr.s. of the preced. m. 31 Dec. 1689, Abigail, d. of lieut. John Spring, had John, b. 23 Feb. 1691, was freem. 1690, and selectman sev. yrs. but rem. as Jackson thinks. late in life. WILLIAM, Marlborough, eldest s. of the first Obadiah, by w. Judith had William, b. 9 June 1691; Jemimah, 5 July 1693; Gamaliel, 2 Oct. 1694; Jacob, 9 Mar. 1697; Judith, 6 Mar. 1700; Keziah, 4 June 1703; and Dinah, 2 Oct. 1704; rem. in few yrs. aft. to Conn. three d. 8 Jan. 1731, and his wid. d. 21 Jan. 1746. Of this name Farmer in MS. finds fourteen among gr. at Harv. five at Yale, and nine at other N. E. coll. 1834. WARDALL, WARDHALL, WERDALL, WARDEL, WOODEL, or WARDELL, sometimes WARDWELL (and Farmer thinks the last form may be the most correct), ELIAKIM, Hampton, s. of Thomas, m. Lydia Perkins, was a favorer of Quakers, so far as to show his hospitality, for wh. he was abused, as is seen in the Hist. of Sewel, Lond. 4 to d. p. 330. Of his w. is told in the County Ct. rec. May 1663, the surpris. extravag. behav. in going naked into the meeting ho. at Newbury, for wh. she was whipt, and this seems to have led Bishop, in his New Eng. Judged, to more surpris. vindicat. of her. See in Coffin's Hist. 66. ELIHU, Hampton, s. of William of Boston, m. 26 May 1665, Elizabeth Wade, perhaps d. of Jonathan, had Elizabeth b. 15 Dec. 1666; Elihu, 2 Jan. 1669; Prudence, 6 Oct. 1670; Jonathan, 26 July 1672; and Susanna, 9 Aug. 1684. Part of his life was, I think, spent at Ipswich. JOSEPH, Lynn, 1669. SAMUEL, Andover, s. prob. of William, m. 9 Jan. 1673, Sarah Hawkes, prob. as sec. w. by the former or the latter may have had Mercy, wh. m. 31 Aug. 1697, John Wright; and Elizabeth wh. d. 9 Sept. 1675. He was execut. 1692, for the damnable or preposterous crime of witchcraft. Under the parlysis of fear his moral power had yield. to the falsehood of confess. of guilt, but on the approach of execut. was happy eno. to recover sense, and retract the folly. Farmer says he had Samuel, William, and Eliakim. THOMAS, Boston 1634, perhaps br. of William, a shoemaker, adm. of the ch. 9 Nov. of that yr. and freem. 4 Mar. foll. by w. Elizabeth had Eliakim, bapt. 23 Nov. 1634; Martha, b. Aug. bapt. 3 Sept. 1637; Benjamin, b. Feb. 1640; and Samuel, 16 May 1643; but the last two were not bapt. at Boston, on acco. of thee heresy or rem. of f. and d. 10 Dec. 1646. He was disarm. Nov. 1637, as a supporter of Wheelwright, yet in Jan. 1639, as they had long bef. rem. to Exeter, was recommend. from our ch. with eight others to "the ch. of Christ at the falls of Piscataqua, if they be rightly gathered," and in 1643 had commiss. from Mass. Ct. to try small causes there. Perhaps he was of Ipswich 1648. UZELL, Ipswich 1673, carpenter, s. of William of Boston, m. 3 May 1664, Mary [[416]] Ring, had Abigail, b. 27 Oct. 1665; Alice, 27 Dec. 1670; Hannah; and Mary, Sept. 1677. He sold est. in Boston 1673. WILLIAM, Boston, on adm. to the ch. 9 Feb. 1634, call. "one of our br. Edmund Quincy's serv." with wh. he came prob. the yr. bef. by w. Alice had Meribah, b. 14 May, bapt. 25 June 1637; Usal, Usual, Uzal, Usewell, Uzell, or other outlandish name, 7 Apr. 1639, not bapt. at B. bec. the f. had gone to Exeter, in disgust for being disarm. Nov. 1637, as being one of the friends of Rev. John Wheelwright, yet was, by our ch. recommend. to the ch. there; came back bef. long time, and had Elihu, bapt. 5 Dec. 1641, tho. the poor copy of town rec. makes him. b. Nov. 1642; Mary, bapt. 14 Apr. 1644, a. 9 days old; and Leah, b. 7 Dec. 1646; in each instance the name in town rec. being Werdall. He m. for sec. w. 5 Dec. 1657, Elizabeth wid. of John Gillet, or Jillet, and had Abigail, b. 24 Apr. 1660. His wid. Elizabeth was liv. 1673. Of the contr. of m. betw. h. and w. and construct. of same by the Ct. during the life of the parties, see. Geneal. Reg. XII. 275. WILLIAM, Wells 1649, then sold wine, sw. alleg. to Mass. 5 July 1653. WARE, HENRY, Dorchester, rec. as townsman, Dec. 1668, on a certific. from the Gov. of being allow. to settle in Mass. JOHN, Dedham, s. of Robert of the same, m. 10 Dec. 1668, Mary, d. of Michael Metcalf, had John, b. 17 June 1670; Eleazer, 13 July 1672, d. soon; Eleazer, again, perhaps d. soon; perhaps Eleazer, again, so rec. at Wrentham, 28 Sept. 1676; but his w. d. prob. bef. he rem. from D. and by a sec. w. Joanna he had m. at D. Jan 1680, had Joseph, 2 June 1681; but the town rec. disagr. with fam. geneal. for that latter makes the last named d. b. 1681, and the s. 1682; and the town rec. proceeds with Mary, 15 Nov. 1684; and Zechariah, next day wh. d. soon; and Benjamin, 8 July 1688; while the fam. geneal. throws in d. Hannah 1686, yet the town rec.of her is 24 Sept. 1687. He went to Wretham aft. he was freem. 1677, and was rep. for W. 1689. JOSEPH, Salem 1682. PETER, York, a rep. 1665 and 9, is by me thot. to have wrong spell. of this name in our Rec. and to belong to the fam. of Weare. ROBERT, Dedham 1643, m. Margaret, d. of John Hunting of D. had John, bapt. 11 Oct. 1646, but Geneal. Reg. VI. 146, says b. 6 Oct. 1648; Nathaniel, bapt. 1 Oct. 1648, tho. in that geneal. said to be b. 7 Oct. 1650; Robert, b. 1 Aug. 1653; Esther, 28 Sept. 1655; Samuel, 30 Sept. 1657; Ephraim, 5 Nov. 1659; and Ebenezer, 28 Oct. bapt. 3 Nov. 1667; was of ar. co. 1644, freem. 1647, and d. 1699. His will of 25 Feb. pro. 11 May, provid. for w. Hannah, and equal portions to ea. ch. exc. larger to John, is abstr. in Geneal. Reg. VI. 146; but the laborious collector must be in error is assum. that his was the Robert impress. for serv. in Philip's war. We can have no doubt, that it was his s. of the [[417]] same name. Each of the ch. lov. to gr. age. The wid. d. at Dorchester ( or, at least was bur. there), 20 Apr. 1721, aged 84. Esther m. 13 May 1673, Rev. Samuel Mann of Wrentham, where, also, others of the fam. liv. ROBERT, Wrentham, s. of the preced. serv. in Dec. 1675, under Mosely in Philip's war, n. 4 June 1677, Sarah, d. of Michael Metcalf, had Robert, b. 6 Dec. 1680; Michael, 11 June 1683; Margaret, 6 June 1685; Jonathan, 28 Feb. 1687; Sarah, Mar. 1689; and Esther, 7 May 1693; and was freem. 1681. Prob. the w. and nine ch. giv. to him in Geneal. Reg. VI. 147, may belong to his s. of the same name. SAMUEL, Boston, adm. of the first ch. 28 Feb. was freem. in May 1675, of wh. no more is kn. and that may seem strange to cursory readers of N. E. affairs. Perhaps he perish. in Philip's war that yr. perhaps he rem. soon. WILLIAM, Dorchester 1643, ar. co. freem. 10 May of the same yr. but when he came, or how, is not told. Yet that he brot. fam. is sure; rem. within ten yrs. to Boston, was a shoemaker, and d. 11 Feb. 1658, leav. wid. Elizabeth and ds. Elizabeth w. of John Gill, mariner. and Sarah, w. of Edward Grant, shipcarpent. Abstr. of his will of 26 Mar. 1656, pro. 1 Apr. 1658, may be seen in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 353. WARFIELD, JOHN, Medfield, freem. 1682, of wh. I find no more, but that he had been of Dedham more than 40 yrs. bef. and had m. Hannah, d. of Robert Randall of Weymouth, wh. in his will of 27 Mar. 1691, remembers her, as then of Mendon. WARHAM, JOHN, Dorchester, came in the Mary and John from Plymouth 1630, having been a min. at Exeter in Co. Devon, where capt. Roger Clap, wh. in his humble, but invalu. tract, gives the best acco. of him, had in his youth, heard his teaching; yet we kn. not, at wh. of the univ. he was bred, if at either, tho. so much may be presum. as he was episcop. ord. At Plymouth, bef. embarc. he with an elder br. in the gospel, Rev. John Maverick, and many of their fellow passeng. had formed a strictly congregatio. ch. He was sw. a freem. 18 May 1631, and the w. wh. he brot. d. 1634, without having ch. as is believ. Ano. w. Abigail, m. a. Oct. 1662, wid. of John Branker, outliv. him, and d. 18 May 1684, but she was not the mo. of his four ds. for her former h. did not die bef. 1662. He was with the body of his ch. rem. 1635 to Windsor, and there officiat. till his d. 1 Apr. 1670, tho. for near six yrs. preced. a dissatisf. party of the worshippers had desired the serv. of a younger preach. From the whole page of Magn. III. 121, it is found that he was afflict. with melancholy in his latter days, and earlier had deliv. sermons from notes; but betw. these two distinguish. traits of his life, no connex. is pretended by the profound author. His d. Abigail, bapt. at W. 27 May 1638, n. Oct. 1658, Thomas Allyn; [[418]] Sarah, b. 28 Aug. 1642, m. 11 May 1664, Return Strong, and d. 26 Dec. 1678; and youngest d. Esther, bapt. 8 Dec. 1644, n. Rev. Eleazer Mather of Northampton, and next Solomon Stoddard, and bore ch. to ea. Of the sec. d. Hepzibah, bapt. 9 Aug. 1640, rept. of her d. 1647 is furnish. The mo. Jane, wh. he m. at W. no doubt, tho. date is not found, nor parent, d. at Norwalk, 23 Apr. 1645, says the Parson's transcr. of Windsor rec. in Geneal. Reg. V. 363, tho. we might be sure this is wrong, for the town of N. was not sett. for more than four yrs. later. She d. Apr. 1655. WILLIAM, Newbury, whose name, says Coffin, is sometimes Worm, and he adds that he m. 10 Feb. 1682, Hannah Adams, d. of the first Robert, had Paul, b. 2 Oct. 1683. WARNER, ANDREW, Cambridge 1632, freem. 14 May 1634, rem. to Hartford with the body of orig. proprs. but wether Hutch.

I. 171, where the last of the eight do honor. is Andrew Ward, but in the repetit. of the names in the same instr. becomes Warner. In 1659 he rem. with a new w. Esther, wid. of Thomas Selden, wh. brot. him no issue, to Hadley at its first settlem. was liv. to take the o. of alleg. at H. 8 Feb. 1679, and d. 18 Dec. 1684, or possib. the month foll. aged almost 90. Of his ch. nine in number, we kn. neither the mo. nor order of succession, nor dates, exc. of Isaac, by approxim. a. 1645. The others were Andrew; Mary, wh. prob. was b. in Eng. m. first, 1645, John Steele, jr. of Hartford, wh. d. 1653, and next William Hills; Ruth, ano. d. m. a Pratt; Daniel; Robert; John; and Jacob.

He may have liv. first at Milford, where Lambert gives resid. to one of the same name 1653. His wid. wh. n. Jeremiah Adams, was Rebecca, d. of John Fletcher, m. 1653, had first Samuel, b. Aug. 1659, d. soon; also John, Sept. 1667, d. in few days. DANIEL, Ipswich 1639, s. of William of the same, and brot. prob. by him, freem. 2 June 1641, by w.

Ellen Jewett of Rowley, and d. 9 Sept. 1688; leav. wid. Ellen, and ch. Daniel, John, William, perhaps Nathaniel, Elizabeth Abigail, Susanna, beside Hannah, w. perhaps of John or Joshua Batchelder. DANIEL, Farmington. s. of the first John of [[419]] the same, was engag. with sev. of the inhab. of F. 1673 in project. settlem. of Mattock, now Waterbury, but d. a. 1680, leaving Daniel, b. a. 1677; John, a. 1671; Abigail, a. 1673; Samuel, a. 1675; and Thomas, a 1677.

His wid d. 18 Dec. 1748, aged 82. GABRIEL, Boston, by w. Mary, had Ann, b. 3 Dec. 1681; and Joseph, 22 Nov. 1685; perhaps rem. but whither, or whence he came, or of what descent, are all unkn. GEORGE, New Haven, d. in May 1681, by his will of 2 May in that yr. naming only Edward and George, his s. in O. E. By his inv. of June foll. amount to L36. 2s. 8d. it may seem, that he was only a transient inhab.

JOHN, Ipswich, s. of William, brot. by him prob. for it is said he was b. a. 1616, or he may as well seem to be that passeng. emb. at London in the Increase 1635, aged 20, wh. m. 1655, Pricilla, d. of Mark Symonds, was one of the first sett. a. 1670 of Brookfield, then hav. ch.

On the destr. of B. in Philip's war, he found refuge at Hadley, where Mark had sett. bef. and Mehitable d. 12 June 1678; and he prob. d. there. JOHN, Providence 1637, m. Pricilla, d. of Ezekiel Holliman, and perhaps his only ch. one of the orig. purch. from the Ind. of Shawomet, of whom Samuel Gorton was chief, and was involv. with him in the violent proceeding of Mass. against that humble col. brot. prisoner to Boston, in Oct. 1643, but was set at liberty in Mar. aft. and in 1652, hav. differ. with Gorton, Holden, Greene, and Potter, old friends, was indulg. with leave to ship hims. and fam. for Eng. from any of the ports of Mass. "provid. he take up his abode in the ship, and thence not to come forth until his depart. exc. upon urgent occasion for his voyage, by order from two magistr." Col. Rec. III. 274 and Winthrop II. 147 and 8. Such tyran. acts did not prevent him from desir. to come back from Eng. but the fam. tradit. is, that the vessel in wh. he was emb. for his ret. perish, with all on board. He left here only Rachel, wh. was them a babe, m. 16 Nov. 1669, Abel Potter; and John, b. 1 Aug. 1645, with Susan and Mary, were carr. to Eng. whence John alone came back, being sent for by gr.f. Holliman, in 1658, to inherit his est. JOHN, Farmington, had been of the early sett. of Hartford, n. 1649, Ann Norton, d. of the first Thomas; freem. 1664, as was JOHN jr. of the same town soon aft. both names being in the list of 1669. The sen. went in 1673, to view Matatock, to ascert. if it were desirable to plant there. He was, Hinman days, p. 90, a soldier in the Pequot war, d. 1679, leav. wid. Margaret and s.

Samuel Brunson; and Thomas, 6 May 1683. JOHN, Middletown, prob. br. of Andrew of the same, n. 14 Dec. 1669, Ann Ward; but if that be true, nothing else can be, of the issue in Geneal. Reg. XIV. 135. JOHN, Warwick, s. of John of the same, was bd. apprentice to William Field for 7 yrs. from 1 Aug. 1659, m. 4 [[421]] Aug. 1670, Ann, of the great heretic Samuel Gorton, had John, b. 5 June 1673; Ezekiel; Ann; and Priscilla; and d. 9 May 1712.

JOHN, Woburn, had John, b. 26 May 1684; Sarah, 18 Mar. 1686; and perhaps rem. JOHN, Middletown, prob. s. of the first Andrew, d. 24 June 1700, leav. John, Jonathan, and other ch. beside reps. of a d. Mary, wh. had m. John North, and was dec. JOSEPH, Hadley, the freem. of 1673, is of unkn. lineage. MARK, Hadley, s. of the first John, n. 8 Dec. 1671, Abigail, d. of Richard Montague, had Abigail, b. 18 Aug. 1675; and Mark, 20 Feb. 1678; and was freem. 1683; rem. to Northampton a. 1684, thence to Westfield, after d. of his w. 1705, where he m. 1713, wid. Mary Root of W. wh. d. 1732; but ret. on her d. to Northampton, there d. 3 May 1738, aged 92, perhaps. NATHANIEL, Ipswich, perhaps s. of the first Daniel, m. 24 Nov. 1673, Hannah Boynton, perhaps d. of William, had Nathaniel, b. 20 Mar. 1677, wh. d. at 20 yrs.; Daniel, 11 Feb. 1678, d. at 8 yrs.; John, 12 Oct. 1679, d. next mo.; Hannah, 13 Feb. 1681, d. young; and Hannah, again, posthum. 28 Aug. 1684. He was freem. 1675, d. bef. 29 Apr. 1684; and his wid. d. in less than 10 yrs. NATHANIEL, Hadley, br. of Mark, with him, and br. John, and some cous. took o. of alleg. 8 Feb. 1679, m. 3 Feb. 1680, Joanna Gardner, d. of Samuel, had a ch. a. 12 Oct. 1680, whose name is not found; Nathaniel, 28 Sept. 1681, wh. was k. at Deerfield, in the surpr. by the Fr. and Ind. 29 Feb. 1704; John, 3 Sept. 1683; Samuel, 15 Jan. 1686, by town rec. but 29 Jan. by ano. rec. yet prob. a. differ. of a yr. renders it likely there were two of the name; Daniel, 7 Aug. 1690; and Israel, 16 Apr. 1696. He was freem. 1683, and d. 15 Jan. 1713, aged 64; [[422]] and the wid. d. 18 Mar. 1729, aged 66. Both were bur. at H. PHILEMON, Ipswich, perhaps s. of Daniel the first, m. 27 Apr. 1690, Abigail Tuttle, had Philemon, b. 7 Jan. 1698; and Daniel, 20 May 1699. RALPH, Dorchester, adm. inhab. 11 July 1664; but no further ment. is found of him, unless as to me seems prob. he were of Newton, L. I. in few yrs. ROBERT, Middletown, s. of Andrew the first, was freem. 1657, rep. 1663, 4, 5, by first w. Elizabeth Grant, n. Feb. 1655, had Samuel, b. Sept. 1656, d. young; Seth, 1 Mar. 1658; Elizabeth Mar. 1660; John, 1 Feb. 1662; Mary, Sept. 1664; Sarah, 6 Mar. 1670; and Mehitable, 21 Nov. 1673; this w. d. 26 Dec. 1673; and by sec. w. Deliverance, wid. of John Rockwell, had Ruth, Nov. 1675; Bethia, 8 Oct. 1680; and Samuel, 9 or 19 May 1683. He d. 10 Apr. 1690; and his wid. m. a Bissell, as from the indistinct. express. of Geneal. Reg. XIV. 135, may be hazardous. infer. and she d. 12 June 1718. SAMUEL, Ipswich, whose f. is not kn. m. 21 Oct. 1662, Mercy Swan, perhaps d. of Richard of Rowley, had Priscilla, b. 25 Sept. 1666; Samuel, 5 July 1668; John, 2 Aug. 1670, d. within a yr.; Dorothy, 2 June 1672; Sarah, 28 May 1674; and Richard, 13 Aug. 1676. He was freem. 1675. SAMUEL, Springfield, or Hadley, by my conject. is the man assoc. with Thomas Parsons, in votes for reimburs. to them by our Gen. Ct. Vol. V. 58 and 75, for cattle tak. by a commiss. for the use of troops in 1675, as I judge. SETH, Middletown, s. of Robert, m. Mary Ward, whose f. is not seen, had Mary, b. 1 Dec. 1687; Robert, 22 June 1692; Samuel; and Seth, 29 July 1705; and d. 28 Nov. 1713. His wid. d. 17 July 1729. THOMAS, Wells, wh. took the o. of alleg. to Mass. 1653, may be the same wh. in 1639, had been fined [Rec. I. 270] for a quarrel with Richard Rodman; and perhaps was the fisherman wh. d. at Boston 1660. THOMAS, Norwalk, sold 1 Sept. 1665, his ho. and lds. says Hall, wh. tells no more; and I conject. that he was k. by the Ind. at Hatfield, 19 Oct. 1675, prob. a soldier. THOMAS, Waterbury, s. of the first John of Farmington, by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 1680; Mary, 1682; Martha and Thomas, tw. 1687; Samuel, 1690; and Margaret, 1693; and he d. 1714. WILLIAM, Ipswich, one of the earliest sett. 1637, had Daniel, and John, beside a d. wh. m. Thomas Wells. WILLIAM, Wethersfield, s. of Daniel of Ipswich, by w. Hannah, m. 1667, had William, b. 1672; John, 1676; Daniel, 1680; Abigail, 1683, d. soon, Abigail, again, 1685; beside Hannah, perhaps the first b. was deac. and d. 28 Feb. 1714; and his wid. d. 3 Mar. aft. Twelve of this name had been gr. at Yale, two at Harv. and eight other N. E. coll. in 1834, as Farmer notes. WARR, ABRAHAM, Ipswich, as print. in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 165, must be abbrev. of Warren. [[423]] WARREN, sometimes spelt WARIN, or WARINS, ABRAHAM, Salem 1637, was of Ipswich 1648, where he d. 1654, his will of 22 Apr. in that yr. (Essex Inst. I. 10) ment. d. Sarah, and wid. not her mo. ARTHUR, Weymouth, was in Mar. 1638, charg. with keep. comp. with the w. of Clement Briggs, and in June foll. she was enjoin. not to come into his comp. but this does not. of necessity, prove any guilt, and soon after he m. and had Arthur, b. 17 Nov. 1639; Abigail, 27 Oct. 1640; Jacob, 26 Oct. 1642; and Joseph, whose date of b. is not mark. nor is d. of the f. ascert. He was one of the petitnrs. 1645, for gr. of the Narraganset ld. suppos. to be forfiet. by the heresy of Gorton, Holden, and thee others just proprs. Abigail m. a Wright. ARTHUR, Chelmsford, perhaps s. of the preced. m. Abigail, d. of John Rogers of Billerica, and d. 25 Apr. 1671. His will of 7 Mar. preced. speaks of w. and ch. and the young wid. d. 15 June foll. Her will, casual. burnt in Oct. was pro. 13 Nov. next. BENJAMIN, Plymouth, s. of the first Joseph, m. 1697, Hannah Morton, had Benjamin, b. 1698, d. young; Abigail, 1700; Hannah, 1704; Nathaniel, 1706; Benjamin, again, 1709; and Pricilla, 1712. By sec. w. Esther Cushman, d. or wid. of unkn. Cushman, m. 1716, h had Joseph, and Mary, wh. prob. both d. young, and he d. 1745. DANIEL, Watertown, s. of the first John, b. in Eng. m. 10 Dec. 1650, Mary, eldest d. of Ellis Barron, had Mary, b. 29 Nov. 1651; Daniel, 6 Oct. 1653; Hannah; Sarah, 4 July 1658; Elizabeth 17 Sept. 1660; Susanna, 26 Dec. 1663, d. under 15 yrs.; John, 5 Mar. 1666; Joshua, 4 July 1668; and Grace, 14 Mar. 1672. He sw. fidel. 1652, was selectman betw. 1680 and 98, twelve yrs. Mary m. 29 May 1668, John Child, and next, 13 Apr. 1677, Nathaniel Fiske; Hannah m. 24 Sept. 1675, David Mead; Elizabeth m. 6 Dec. 1681 Jonathan Tainter; and Grace m. 20 Jan. 1691, Joseph Morse. DANIEL, Watertown, s. of the preced. freem. 1690, m. 19 Dec. 1678, Elizabeth d. of John Whitney of the same, had Elizabeth b. 16 Oct. 1679, d. at 16 yrs.; Ruth, 15 Oct. 1681; Mary, 25 Jan. 1684, d. young; Daniel, 30 Apr. 1686; Hannah, 25 Jan. 1691; Sarah, wh. was bapt. 14 Dec. 1701; Jonas, or possib. Josiah, 25 July 1695; Jonas, 30 Apr. 1697; Deliverance, 10 Oct. 1699; and Mary, bapt. 2 May 1703. He was oft. selectman, rep. 1701. EPHRAIM, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had sarah, b. 10 Aug. 1685, but no more is kn. of him. HUMPHERY, a man of wh. no more is heard, but that in 1678 he was nam. by the crown with Edmund Randolph and some of the princ. gentlemen, to take the Gov's. o. of alleg. as told by Hutch. I. 330, of wh. the Gov. inform. the Gen. Ct. that in Aug. he perform the duty as in Col. Rec. V. 191. Perhaps he was nothing but an official and soon went home. JACOB, Chelmsord, freem. 1674, perhaps was one of the first sett. at Plainfield a. 1700, or it may have been a s. of the same [[424]] name. James, Kittery 1656 or earlier, then had gr. of ld. was of the gr. jury 1666, liv. in the upper part, wh. bec. Berwick, made his will 9 Dec. 1700, which was pro. 24 Dec. 1702, names w. Margaret, s.

Edward Dotey, had John; Edward; both d. young; Sarah; Alice; Patience; James, b. 1700; Hope; Mercy; Mary; and Elizabeth of wh. the last three d. unm. He was gr. f. of the emin. James, Presid. of Mass. Counc. 1779. JOHN, Watertown, came prob. 1630, in the fleet with Sir Richard Saltonstall, then aged a. 45, and hav. w. and ch. (four certain. are nam. in his will, and of them only Elizabeth could be b. here.). There may have been others, but no rec. of b. or d. is found. He was adm. freem. 18 May 1631, chos. selectman 1636-40. Late in life he fell under the censure of the laws, unwisely levelled at dissent. from the relig. course of the major part of the inhab. and Bond informs us of proceedings against him in 1651, 4, and 61; but he d. in peace, 13 Dec. 1667, aged 82. His w. Margaret d. 6 Nov. 1662. She was prob. the mo. of all his ch. John, b. 1622; Mary; and Daniel, b. 1628; beside Elizabeth wh. n. a. 1654, James Knapp. Mary m. 30 Oct. 1642, John Bigelow. He had good est. in lds. in W. His will of 30 Nov. 1667, names the four ch. and Mary, w. of Daniel, gr.ch. Daniel W. and Mary Bigelow. JOHN, Watertown, s. of the preced. prob. the freem. of 1645, n. 11 July 1667, Michael, d. of Robert Jennison, wid. of Richard Bloise of the same, had Margaret, b. 6 May 1668; Sarah, 25 Jan. 1671; Elizabeth 8 July 1673; Mary, 25 May 1675; John, 21 May 1678; Grace, 12 Mar. 1680; and Samuel, 23 Jan. 1683; was a capt. and .d 1703. His will of 12 Jan. of that yr. was pro. 22 Feb. foll. It names all the v\ch. exc. Sarah, wh perhaps d. young. Elizabeth m. 18 Oct. 1705, Daniel Harrington, and Mary m. 30 Dec. 1698, Joseph Pierce. JOHN, Ipswich 1654. JOHN, Boston, tobacconist, or cardmaker, as in the will he is call. by first w. had Joshua; Thomas; Mary, b. a. 1665; and perhaps Sarah; but the name of h is w. is unkn. nor is any b. found on the rec. so that it seems prob. that he had these ch. in ano. town, where the mo. may have also d. I think he was early of Exetere, there m. 21 Oct. 1650, Deborah Wilson, wh. d. 26 June 1668. In 1669, he m. Elizabeth wid. of John Combs, wh. had d. in May of that yr. preced. She had first been wid. of Thomas Barlow. By this w. he had Nathaniel, b. 27 May 1670, and this w. d. next yr. or early in 1672, for in Feb. of this yr. he exhibit. inv. of her goods, and engag. to fulfil her desire towards here three ds. and his s. by hr, in their distrib. to one Barlow, two Combs, and Nathaniel, This s. and Mary Combs, in 1685, chose for their guardian, Joseph Ryall of Charlestown, wh. they call. [[425]] uncle. A third w. Elizabeth brought him Abigail, 10 May 1676; and John, posthum. 10 Feb. 1678. He may have been the freem. of 1670, and d. in July 1677, mak. his will 10, wh. was pro. 31 of that mo. and his wid. 4 Oct. 1681, bec. sec. w. of Samuel Lendall, by contr. of that date, in wh. he provid. good portion for her, as did also her third h.

He seems to have had small est. and in his will is nothing of interest exc. the gift to his s. Joshua, "my engine with wh. I cut tabacco." JOHN, Ipswich 1670, may have been the man at Salem long aft. wh. was a spinner, and in 1685 had loan from the town treas. of £5. to pay his work people. See Felt, Ann. II. 159. JOHN, Watertown, s. of the first Daniel, m. 22 May 1683, Mary, d. of Jonathan Brown of the same, had John, b. 15 Mar. 1685; Jonathan, 26, bapt. 29 Apr. 1688; and Daniel, bapt. 1 Sept. 1689; was ens. freem. 1690, and d. 11 July 1703.

JOSEPH, Plymouth, s. of Richard, but not eldest in my judgm. tho. so call. in the Warren Genal. that may hav unconsciously been influenc. by the baptismal designat. was not brot. by his mo. from Eng. m. a. 1651, Priscilla, sis. of the famous rul. elder Thomas Faunce, whose f. had been fellow-passeng. with his mo. was held in gr. esteem 1677, rep. by ann. elect. 1681-6, and d. 1689. His wid. d. 1707. Of his ch. it will be very hard to find exact dates of b. but the order is confident. trusted; Mercy, b. 23 Sept. 1653; Abigail, 15 Mar. 1655, d. young; Joseph, 8 Jan. 1657; Patience, 15 Mar. 1660; Elizabeth 15 Aug. 1662; and Benjamin, 8 Jan. 1670. Mercy m. Winsor says, 1674, or 5 Feb. 1675, as the Bradford Geneal. has it, John Bradford, liv. with him near 62 yrs. and d. Mar. 1747. Patience m. 1686, Samuel Lewis, as the name seems prob. to be read, and Elizabeth m. 19 Jan. 1688, Josiah Phinney. It is observ. that his male descend. since the fourth generat. are confin. to those of his gr.-gr.ch. Benjamin. Joseph, Plymouth, eldest s. of the preced. m. 1692, Mehitable Wilder, had Joseph, b. 1694; and Priscilla, 1696; and he d. the same yr. JOSEPH, Roxbury, housewright, sec. s. of Peter of Boston, m.

In the Geneal. of Warren, print. 1854, p. 45, the most sumptous vol. of genealogy ever issued from the press on our side of the water, they are said to have had eight ch. but the rec. contains no more than the above, nor does the pedigree at the opening of the book. In his will of 22 Jan. bef. d. he gives all his real and personal est. to s. Joseph, exc. the household goods giv. to w. orders him to pay her L8. per an. keep a cow for her, find. 2 bls. of cider, and one cord of wood per an. for her, beside the choice of one room in his dw.-ho. during her wid. But of the ch. Samuel and Sarah are not ment. so that I presume the first was d. and the other had got changed into Deborah, wh. is the name marked aft. Ebenezer and John, yet before Hannah, and to ea. of these four, Joseph was direct. to pay £65. He was gr.f. of the illustrious patriot, Maj.-Gen. Joseph Warren, k. at Bunker Hill. JOSHUA, Watertown, s. of Daniel the first, m.

I find no later acco. of any of them exc. Joseph, bef. ment. RALPH, Salem 1638, of wh. Felt could tell no more than that a gr. of ld. was that yr. confirm. to him. RICHARD, Plymouth 1620, came in the Mayflower, leav. w. Elizabeth and five ds. to come in the third sh. 1623, d. 1628, hav. no other ch. but those b. in Eng. viz.

James, b. 13 Jan. 1680, at P. wh. had no ch. and Samuel, 7 Mar. 1683, whose progeny is in that neighb. SAMUEL, Watertown, youngest s. of the sec.

He d. 13 Nov. 1759; and his wid. d. 15 July 1766. THOMAS, Salem 1640, a witness to the will said to be the first brot. into Ct. for that shire. THOMAS, Boston, m. 14 Dec. 1694, Sarah Fitch; but as no more is heard of him, I doubt he was only trans. resid. But he may have been a soldier in Mosely's comp. Dec. 1675. WILLIAM, Hartford, freem. 1658, and perhaps was sw. again in 1665, ea. vol. of the Col. Rec. of Trumbull prov. the right, m. Elizabeth d. of John Crow, had two ws. as in his will of 20 Oct. 1689, he tells, without nam. them, assign. to first w. three s. John, William, and Thomas, and to the liv. w. four ch. of wh. Abraham was one. He d. soon aft. for his inv. is of 1 Nov. in that yr. So we may see the wild work of tradit. that he had only Abigail, wh. m. 14 Jan. 1693, Richard Lord, and aft. Jan. 1713 m. Rev. Timothy Woodbridge. His wid. m. Phineas Wilson, a rich merch. it was erron. said, but she was very infirm or insane, and certain. Wilson found a better w. Strangely out of place is the confusion a. the wid. of Phineas Wilson, in the address of Mr. Day, Presid. of the Conn. Hist. Soc. 26 Dec. [[428]] 1843, at the foundat. of thee beautiful edifice for the Wadsworth Athenaeum, title to the realty being deduc. from her. But great uncertainty is found in the identity of the w. of Richard Lord; and aft. large investigat. it is clear, that no derivation from, or connection with, Hartford William can be traced. Certain. thee wid. of Phineas Wilson did not m. Lord, but her d. Abigail did. WILLIAM, Boston, mariner, m. 1 Nov. 1690, Abiel Rogers, had Mary, b. 24 Sept. foll. but he had on 11 June preced. made his will in favor of the mo. and ch. unborn, nam. w. his excor. yet as it was not pro. bef. 10 July 1706, he prob. liv. to near this date, and had no other ch. or went on a voyage and d. aboard. So common. was this name in Eng. diffus. over the E. S. and W. shores, that I can find no proof of connex. betw. the Plymouth , Watertown, and Boston fams.

Holden, Gorton, and others, tho. he did not rem. with them, wh. purch. from Miantonomo, planting place on the W. shore of Narraganset, now Warwick, and suffer. by monstrous injustice from Mass. in 1643. Yet, tho. some of his est. was confisc. at the Court in Oct. 1643, he got off better than most of his fellow misbelievers wh. narrow. escap. sentence of death, still he was bound to appear in May foll. See Winthrop II. 146-8. At the Gen. Ct. in May next "being found erroneous, heretical, and obstinate, it was agreed that he should be detain. prisoner till the Quarter Ct. in the 7th mo. unless five of the magistr. do find cause to send him away; wh. if they do, it is order. that he shall not ret. within this jurisdict. upon pain of death," as the Col. Rec. II. 73 says; as also Felt's Ann. II. 579; but in his Eccles. Hist. I. 558, the tender heart of the writer prevail. over his judgm. to suppress the last words. Yet even an Ecclesiast. Hists. should not be afraid of the truth. He was ch. offic. of the milit. call. col. and d. 28 Oct. 1673. His wid. mo of the ch. Bethia, d. Dec. 1680. Mehitable m. a Fenner. Of the tradit. of his coming in the Lion with Roger Williams Feb. 1631, no respect is felt, but its orgins may easily be referr. to the subordinate truth that he [[433]] was one of the first sett. at Providence, with R. W. tho. he was earlier than him at Salem. ROBERT, Plymouth 1638, had been at Salem 1636, m. at Marshfield, 9 or 11 Dec. 1638, Elizabeth d. of Thomas Bourne, and rem. to M. had Joseph, b. 1639; John, 1642; Thomas, 1644; Robert, a. 1652; and Joseph; was rep. 1644-9, and d. Sept. 1652, tho. Deane says 1665. ROBERT, Hingham, prob. s. of the preced. m. 1 Oct. 1675, as Hobart says, but town rec. 30 Sept. Susanna, d. of Daniel Lincoln, had Susanna, b. 4 May 1677; a ch. b. and d. 4 Feb. 1681; Elizabeth 18 Aug. 1682, d. at 13 yrs.; Robert, 14 Nov. 1684, d. at 19 yrs.; Josiah, 28 Nov. 1687; and a ch. wh. d. 24 Sept. 1694, too young to have a name; and his w. d. 10 Feb. 1696. He m. 20 Feb. 1699, Sarah, wid. of Thomas Lincoln, d. of James Lewis of Barnstable, had Lydia, 13 May 1700; Thomas, 19 Jan. 1702; and Hannah, 22 May 1704; and his w. d. 30 Jan. 1732. He d. 18 May 1741, aged 88. THOMAS, Roxbury, br. of Robert of Plymouth, had w. Hannah, wh. d. 5 June 1641; unit. with petitnrs. in 1645 for right from Mass. to plant at the settlem. of Warwick, whence the heretic inhabs. of wh. his namesake Richard ws one, had been forcib. eject. and he d. 22 Jan. 1676, unless the town rec. wh. contains the notices of d. of both, and no account of m. or b. may be design. for differ. persons. Farmer, MS. makes a Thomas of Hingham 1679, to be only s. of the preced. but I fear he mistook the name of the f. THOMAS, Newport, among the freem. adm. 1655, was of Wickford 1674. THOMAS, Saybrook, by Miss Caulkins conject. s. of the preced. bec. one of the first sett. of Norwich, there em. Nov. 1668, Miriam, d. of lieut. Thomas Tracy. He was ens. and propound. for freem. 1671, h ad ten ch. as in the valu. Hist. of N. p. 114 is told; but the fair writer gives only the three s. Thomas, b. Sept. 1670; John, Mar. 1672; and Joseph, 15 Jan. 1685. Names are heard of five others, Elizabeth b. Aug. 1675; Miriam, Apr. 1678; Martha, 6 Dec. 1680; Lydia, Aug. 1683; and Ann, Apr. 1689. Elizabeth m. 10 July 1695, capt. John Fitch of Windham. Of this name, Farmer found in 1834, three had been gr. at Harv. four at Yale, and five at other N. E. coll. WATERS, ANTHONY, Hempstead, L. I. was town clk. 1663, favor. the jurisdict. of Conn. and it may be that he had gone from Conn. to promote annex. BEVIL, Hartford, found in the list of freem. 1669, had good est. d. 14 Feb. 1730, says the gr.-st. in 97th yr. Wh. was his first w. and mo. of his ch. is not kn. but when 92 yrs. old, he took ano. w. 13 Dec. 1722, Sarah, wid. of Joseph Mygott. His will of 1 Feb. 1721 ment. Thomas, d. bef. his f. and ds. Sarah, wh. m. 10 Feb. 1698, Joseph Benton; Hannah m. 1708, Wilterton Merrills; Mary m. 1711, Thomas Seymour. EDWARD, New Haven, took o. of fidel. 1647; and one of [[434]] the same name liv. at Westchester 1663. EZEKIEL, Salem, s. of Richard, had Samuel, b. 3 Sept. 1673; Mary, 19 Apr. 1676; Elizabeth 4 Aug. 1678; Ezekiel, 1 Aug. 1680; Sarah, 9 Aug. 1682; Joyce, 9 Mar. 1684; Susanna, 1 Jan. 1686; Elias, 11 may 1688, wh. d. next mo.; Ebenezer, 26 Oct. 1690; and Martha, Oct. 1692. JACOB, Charlestown, had w. Sarah, wh. join. the ch. there 12 Nov. 1682, and of wh. I find no more. JOHN, Boston, came with Winthrop 1630, I suppose, for he and w. Frances are among the very early mem. of our ch. Nos. 23, and 4, and d. since is add. to the first copy of rec. He was from Neyland, in Co. Suffk. was a serv. of the Gov. wh. in letters to his w. the first autumn after arriv. ment. his loss. See Appx. A. to his Hist. Nos. 47 and 49. JOHN, Milford 1658, if Lambert be correct; but no more is found of him, not even his name among freem. of 1669. JOHN, Salem, perhaps s. of Richard of the same, m. 1 Aug. 1663, Sarah, d. of John Tompkins of the same, had Richard and John, b. last of June foll. and both d. in few days; John, 4 July 1665; Sarah, 30 Aug. 1667; Richard, again, 13 Nov. 1669; Nathaniel, 6 Feb. 1672; Samuel, 29 Mar. 1674, d. in few wks.; Samuel, again, 6 May 1675; and Elizabeth 10 Jan. 1678. He was call. Aug. 1692, witness against George Jacobs. His will of 14 Feb. 1707, was pro. 1 Mar. 1708. JOSEPH, New Haven 1649, aft. 1653, prob. rem. to Milford, at least had gr. of ld. in that town 1656 and 9; but no more is heard of him. JOSEPH, Boston, m. 13 Sept. 1655, Martha, d. of Oliver Mellows, and no more is told of him. LAWRENCE, Watertown, 1634 or earlier, by w. Ann, d. of Richard Linton, had Lawrence, b. 14 Feb. 1635; Sarah, 7 Dec. 1636; Mary, 27 Jan. 1638; Rebecca, Feb. d. 1 Mar. 1640; Daniel, 6 Feb. 1642; in 1638, he or his w. or both, were warned for hav. danced, and may have been induc. to rem. early to Lancaster, where the high authty. of Willard makes him build the first ho. in that settlem. See Centenn. Celebr. 75. There prob. he had, Bond thinks, Joseph, Ephriam, Jacob, and Rachel; was blind in 1676, but happily rem. bef. the Ind. whirlw. fell on L. and resid. at Charlestown, there d. 9 Dec. 1687, aged near 85. Adam his s. d. 15 Sept. 1670 at Charlestown. Lawrence, Boston, s. of the preced. by w. Hannah, had Joseph, b. 14 Oct. 1663; Hannah, 26 Jan. 1666; Jonathan, 2 May 1671, d. young; Jonathan, again, 3 Oct. 1674; and Stephen, 3 Apr. 1677; was freem. 1663; and d. 1693. RICHARD, Saelm 1637, a gunsmith, had a ch. bapt. prob. John, 29 Nov. 1640; Elizabeth 26 Feb. 1643, d. unm. at 20 yrs.; Abigail, 18 May 1645; Ezekiel, 4 Apr. 1647; Susanna, 1 Apr. 1649; and Hannah, 30 Jan. 1653; tho. in whose right the act was admin. does not so well appear, as the adm. of Joyce, wh. may have ben his w. is by Felt insert. under 1641. That w. I presume to be the person made by Farmer a man (GEORGE), [[435]] and by him enrol. of the ch. 23 May 1641. Such error is not so ludicr. as that he commits in mak. our Walter Merry, the shipwright of Merry's point, now the North battery, Merry Waters, as if any Boston puritan two hundred and twenty yrs. since, could have been call. Merry, instead of Sad, Stearn, or Severe. Dearborn, in Boston Notions, 63, foll. the blunder of so high authority. He is mark. by Felt as freem. tho. he omits his name among mem. of the ch. and in my opin. the person so entit. was Ipswich man. He was one of the petitnrs. in 1665 for conciliat. betw. the Col governm. and the crown, and was licensed to sell ale in 1668, and by his will of 16 July 1676, pro. 25 Nov. 1677, mak. w. Joyce extrix. we find other ch. beside the forenam. viz. James, William, Martha, and Mary. Then Abigail was w. of William Punchard; Mary of Clement English; Susanna of Benedict Pulsifer; and Hannah of Joseph Striker. Martha was perhaps unm. and in that instrum. ment. as well as her mo. and infirm. br. William. Perhaps Sarah, wh. m. 26 Feb. 1652, Joshua Ray, and Phebe, wh. m. 11 Oct. 1658, Thomas West, may have been his ds. RICHARD, Ipswich, 1638, was prob. the freem. of 22 May 1639. SAMPSON, Boston 1666, mariner, by w. Rebecca, had Mary, b. 28 Aug. 1667; William, 3 Mar. 1669; John, 2 Jan. 1673; Rebecca, 28 May 1677; Elizabeth 1 Feb. 1683; Sampson, 20 June 1685; and Robert, 5 May 1688; was in 1685, sent out with 40 men, in pursuit of Veal and Graham, pirates on the coast, off New London, says Farmer, in MS. SAMUEL, Woburn, freem. 1684, by w. Mary, had Mary, b. 19 Oct. 1675; Sarah, 15 Jan. 1678; Daniel, 30 Nov. 1679; Samuel, 6 Nov. 1681; Abigail, 29 Nov. 1683; John, 22 Sept. 1685, d. in 4 yrs.; Ephraim, 12 Oct. 1687; John, again, 11 Dec. 1689; Nathaniel, and Daniel, tw. 10 Oct. 1691, both d. soon; Josiah 19 Sept. 1694; and Joanna, 28 Nov. 1696. STEPHEN, Charlestown 1678, perhaps br. of Jacob, had w. Sarah, wh. join. the ch. 26 June 1681; but of him I learn no more. THOMAS, Hartford, only s. of Bevil of the same, m. 19 May 1696, Sarah, d. of the sec. Benjamin Fenn, of Milford, had Mehitable, b. 1697, d. young; Joseph, 1698; Sarah, 1699; Mehitable, again, 1701; Dorothy, 1704; Samuel, 1707; Benjamin, 1709, perhaps d. young; and Abraham, 1712; neither of the last two are nam. in the will of gr.f. while the others liv. all are. WILLIAM, Pemaquid, sw. alleg. to Mass. 1674, and was appoint. constable. WILLIAM, Marblehead 1674, was prob. s. of Richard of Salem, and d. 1684, leav. ch. William, Thomas, Hannah, and Mary. WILLIAM, Boston 1653, of wh. I find no more but that when he made a deed June 1668, he is call. senr. so that it seems prob. there was a junr. WILLIAM, Marblehead, perhaps s. of William of the same, m. 1 Aug. 1686, [[436]] Elizabeth Lattimore, perhaps d. of Christopher. Farmer's num. of gr. in 1834, is two at Harv. one at Yale, and four at other N. E. coll. WATHEN, or WATHIN, EZEKIEL, Amesbury, sw. alleg. Dec. 1677. It may be that he was s. of that John Watten, dec. on whose est. at the Gen. Ct. Oct. 1654, admin. was giv. to capt. Brian Pendleton, "that some course may be taken for relief of his wid." See Col. Rec. III. 366. Pendelton was a selectman of Portsmouth, and Watten was one of the mem. of ch. May 1640. See Geneal. Reg. IX. 180. GEORGE, Salem, reckon. by Felt among mem. of the ch. 1641. THOMAS, Gloucester, was s. of Edmund, d. 1652, had bef. serv. in the civil was under Prince Rupert. The est. of a wid. W. was, it is said, sett. in Essex Co. 1644.

His wid. m. Samuel Whitmore of Lexington. CALEB, Roxbury, s. of John of the same, m. 15 Dec. 1665, Mary, d. of George Hyde, of Boston, freem. 1666, was of Hadley 1668, a sch.-master at Hadley bef. and aft. but soon rem. to Hartford, for many yrs. taught there, and d. says the Coll. Catal. 1725, rather aged. His case affords a perfect example of fondness for exaggera. Hinman, 246 of Ed. I. tells that "he is suppos. to have d. over one hundred yrs. of age," when we find fairly 84 only betw. b. and d. No ch. was liv. perhaps none ever b. to him, so that he gave est. to sis. Dorcas Adams of Ipswich, wh. was older than hims. but w. Mary was made excor. of his will. EDWARD, New Haven, m. 1 July 1653, Grace, wid. of John Walker, had Grace, bapt. some day, but not 31, in Mar. 1653; and John, b. 22, bapt. prob. 28 Sept. 1656. See Geneal. Reg. IX. 363.

Aaron and William, perhaps both aft. his rem. in that yr. to join the sec. ch. of Boston, with his w. AARON, Salem, perhaps s. of the preced. freem. 1690, was one of the body of worshippers wh. in Apr. 1693 began the three yrs. labor of compele. the withdraw. of their pastor, unhappy Samuel Paris, for his sad activ. in the delusion of witchcraft, that caused the death of so many of his flock. See Calef, Salem Ed. 123; and 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 169, where is most valua. copy from the rec. of the ch. of the pastor hims. made by Mr Felt, where we must regret what is not a common subj. of compl. that his extr. are too brief. EBENEZER, Hartford, s. prob. of Eliezer, had w. Irene, and I kn. no more of him. ELIEZER, Hartford 1666, had suit in Mass. as early as 1657, against Thomas Purchase of Kennebeck. See our Col. Rec. IV. p. 334. He was propound. for freem. May 1669, had good est. at H. for we learn form the very curious addr. of Mr. Day on the Wadsworth Athenaeum, [[440]] that the edifice was erect. on the ld. by Thomas Welles in Feb. 1667, convey. to Way, and by him held to his d. 12 July 1687, and in 1696, assign. to Ebenezer, his only ch. b. at H. 4 Nov. 1673, by w.

GEORGE, said to be a partak. with Thomas Purchase, in the early settlem. of the country near the junct. of the Androscoggin with the Kennebeck, bef. 1630. He was a contribut. in Eng. GEORGE, Dorchester, s. prob. of Henry the first, had div. in neck lds. now South Boston, 1637, aft. at Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 19 Mar. 1651; and as no more is heard of him at B. it seems to me prob. that he was of Providence soon aft. there bound hims. in alleg. to Charles II. 31 May 1666. George, Saybrook and Lyme, m. Elizabeth only d. of John Smith of New London, whither he rem. had George and Thomas, wh. d. there. GEORGE, New London, s. of the preced. m. Susanna, d. of Joseph Nest, and d. a. 23 Feb. 1717. By reason of the marvelous deep snow, his corpse could not be brot. to bur. bef. 7 Mar. See Caulkins, 362. HENRY, Dorchester, prob. br. of the first Aaron, came in the Mary and John, 1630, says Roger Clap, a fellow passeng. well adv. in life, brings w. Elizabeth and ch. prob. Samuel, Henry, Richard, and Elizabeth beside ano. of his w. wh. was lost in the winter pass. hither of the Lion, that had been charter. here soon aft. arr. of the Gov. and comp. to go to Bristol for food, and was coming back in Dec. and Jan. 1630-1. He had good est. but never desir. to be freem. liv. to 1667, aged 84, as Blake's Annals tell. His w. had d. 23 June 1665, at the same age. HENRY, Dorchester, s. or more prob. gr.s. of the preced. had in his will of 2 Dec. 1674, nam. sis. Elizabeth and br. Richard, beside uncle Aaron, so that my infer. is, that he had no w. or ch. was a mariner, and s. of Richard. JAMES, Newton, L. I. is first found there in 1656, and had large est. soon, was a Quaker, had ch. James, Francis, John, Hannah, Elizabeth and Martha, and d. 2 Oct. 1665. Riker, 378, makes Hannah m. Jeremiah Burroughs; Elizabeth m. Arthur Albertis; and Martha m. Thomas Taylor. Highly respect. are descend. RICHARD, Dorchester, s. of Henry the first, b. in Eng. a . 1624, adm. freem. 10 May 1643, rem. to Salem, there by w. Esther, d. of Thomas Jones, had Henry, bapt. 28 Dec. 1651; Elizabeth 8 Sept. 1653; Richard, 1654; Jonathan, 29 Dec. 1657, d. young; with his w. join. the 2d ch. in Boston 17 Feb. 1661, yet had no more ch. bapt. here, tho. by town rec. it seems, that w. Esther brot. him Hannah, 23 May 1662; and w. Bethia brot. Hannah, 13 July 1677. I strongly suspect that in this last rec. by carelessness of the writer mo. and ch. changed names; but it is of very slight importance, for his will of 2 Jan. 1697, pro. 28 Oct. foll. gave all his est. to w. Hannah, "hav. no [[441]] reason to believe any of my own childr. are surv." This latter w. was wid. of Thomas Hull, d. of William Townsend. He was a cooper, a man of substance, of ar. co. 1671, was lieut. and serv. at castle island under Roger Clap, was farmer gener. of the impost. in 1674, and lost money by his speculat. and some persons wished him to be made postmaster, in place of John Hayward the notary, perhaps our of compassion for that ill success. RICHARD, "was of Scituate in 1651," says Farmer, but no evid. is kn. to me. ROBERT, an apprent. in 1634, with Dept.Gov. Ludlow, yet in few wks. was under ens. Jennison, wh. soon lawfully assign. him to Edward Burton, and not long aft. was with Samuel Hosier, wh. early in 1636 got rid of him to William Almy to take him form Israel Stoughton, Jennison, Burton, and Hosier having to pay 20s. each for the benefit of Almy. See pp. 119, 122, 123, and 163 of Col. Rec. I. Such an inhab. was not object of regret if soon lost sight of. SAMUEL, Dorchester 1664, perhaps s. of the first Henry, but nothing more is heard. THOMAS, Isle of Shoals 1649, in few yrs. aft. was liv. in some part of Essex Co. THOMAS, New London, s. of the first George of the same, m. says Caulkins, Ann, d. of Andrew Lester, but if so, she was the sec. d. of that name, prob. by his sec. w. of the same name (for the first Ann by first w. had m. Nathaniel Millet), had Thomas, wh. d. at 20 yrs.; David, James, John, and six others betw. 1688 and 1714, rem. a. 1720 to New Haven, and d. 1726. WILLIAM, Boston, prob. s. of Richard, with w. join. Mather's ch. 9 Mar. 1677, was freem. 1678. WILLIAM, Salem, br. prob. of Aaron of the same, freem. 1690, with him was active in protest. against the cruel hypochondria of Rev. Samuel Paris. See Felt in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 169. WAYMOUTH. See Weymouth. WEADEN, Edward, a soldier in Moseley's comp. at the Narraganset gr. fight, Dec. 1675. Perhaps this name may be Weeden, or Wheedon. WEARE, NATHANIEL, Newbury, s. perhaps of Peter of the same, b. in Eng. a. 1631, or more prob. 1635, as in Oct. 1695, he was se. to be only 60, m. 3 Dec. 1656, Elizabeth Swain, perhaps d. of Richard of Rowley, had Nathaniel, b. 5 Jan. 1658; Peter, 5 Nov. 1660; rem. a. 1662 to Hampton, there had six others, as Coffin says, and yet of not one is the proof accessib. was freem. of Mass. 1666, a rep. and bec. counsel. of N. H. aft. our new chart. 1692, and d. 13 May 1718, aged 83, wh. is in more than one book swell. to 87. PETER, Kittery, a man of large acquaint. with the New Hampsh. and Maine early settlem. whose name first appears on the gr. jury 1645, under the Gorges jurisdict. and in 1654 under that of Mass. of wh. he was adm. freem. 1652, as Farmer counts the sw. of alleg. was rep. for York in 1659, in the subordin. [[442]] legislat. held by Wiggin and Danforth by virtue of commissn. from Mass. but rep. at Boston in 1660 for Kittery; in 1665, the great important sess. of controver. with the royal commissnrs. and 1669 for York, again 1670 in Presid. Danforth's Court for the Province, in 1676 as "the old Treasr. was direct. to square his accounts," and in 1680 sw. alleg. to the k. Charles II. Aft. this I find his name no more in the Maine rec. and he prob. d. soon. PETER, Newbury, wh. d. as Coffin notes, 12 Oct. 1653, may have been br. or f. rather more prob. of Nathaniel. PETER, Hampton, s. Nathaniel, of what it is mortifiying confess. that I kn. no more exc. that he was made counsel. of the Prov. 1698. Neither Belkn. nor Farmer give m. progeny or d. It has been asked if Peter Weare and Peter Wyer were the same man. ROBERT, Hampton, the freem. of 1678, may have been br. of Nathaniel. In a very valu. note to Belkn. Hist. by Farmer in his Ed. 364, 5, uncertainty rests even on the f. of Meshech, b. 1714, H. C. 1735, one of the most servicable men that State has ever produc. wh. was its first Presid. under revolut. const. Yet F. thinks he was s. and the youngest of four of Nathaniel, wh. was s. of the last Peter. WEATHERHEAD, or WITHEREHEAD, Mary, one of the Quakers, wh. arr. at Boston 27 July 1656, from London, aged 26, in the Speedwell, but was, I hope, discreet eno. to go quietly to prison until the evil spirit in our governm. sent her home by the same ship. The silence of Hutchinson I. 196, permits us to indulge such a suspicion of rare tolerat. WEATHERS, JOHN, Hadley, sw. alleg. Feb. 1679. WAVER, CLEMENT, fined for drunk. in Mass. 1640, may have not been perman. resid. certain. not the Mr. Weaver, order. by court to be sent home, 1 Mar. 1631, in the Lion, as one "unmeet to inhabit here." Passing over the drunk. we may find him as Clement senr. a freem. at Newport in the list of 1655. CLEMENT, Newport, in the list of freem. 1655 call. junr. may well seem s. of the preced. and he m. Mary, eldest d. of William Freeborn, had perhaps the misfortune of being a capt. 1690 serv. with Walley in the expedit. of Phips against Quebec, if such latitude of construct. may be applied to the exact statem. in Arnold's Hist. of R. I. Vol. I. 520, 2. EDMUND, a husbandman, aged 28, with his w. Margaret, 30, came in the Planter, 1635, from London. They are call. in the London cocket for clearance, of Auckstrey in Herefordsh. yet my search for their resid. in this country is unsucess. JAMES, perhaps br. of the preced. came fellow-passeng. at least with him, and was aged 23. THOMAS, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had Sarah, b. 6 Nov. 1674, but of him no more can be found here, tho. possib. it might be in ano. town. [[443]] WEBB, ADEY, ADY, ADDEY, or ADDY, Plymouth 1631, was tax. in two foll. yrs. and on the list of those able to bear arms in 1643, his name appears with a star bef. it. He was not a sever puritan, but oft. prosecut. for work. on the Lord's day, bound as serv. to Gov. Prence, and prob. had no w. or ch. See Felt, Eccles. Hist. i. 347. BENJAMIN, Malden, m. 7 Dec. 1669, Mercy, d. of William Bucknam, and, were it in my power, I would gladly tell more than that he was freem. 1690. CHRISTOPHER, Braintree, freem. 1645, had perhaps Peter, but the old town rec. is incomplete, not nam. the mo. nor date; and it cannot be that, as Farmer had it, he was b. 1657, and so more likely to be s. of sec. Christopher; was one of the petitnrs. that yr. for leave to go and possess the ld. from wh. our governm. had unrighteous. driv. Gorton, Holden, and other misbeliev. planters; but the right of the sufferers was vindicat. in Eng. CHRISTOPHER, Billerica, prob. s. of the preced. b. in Eng. m. 18 Jan. 1656, Hannah Scott, perhaps d. of the first Benjamin, had John, b. 23 Oct. foll.; Samuel, Aug. 1660, as the town rec. certifies, tho. I have seen a statem. that it was 28 July 1660; Christopher, 25 Mar. 1663; Hannah, 5 Sept. 1665; Benjamin, 12 Apr. 1667; Mary, 6 Sept. 1669; Joseph, 15 Mar. 1672; Abigail, 13 Oct. 1675. He was town clk. 1678, early in life, and rep. in the difficult times of 1689 and 90, d. 30 May 1694, aged 64. DANIEL, Salem, licens. as innholder 1689, had m. 20 July 1675, Mary Beckwett, d. of John, had John, b. 17 Apr. 1676; Margaret, 20 Feb. 1678, d. at 2 yrs.; Perez, 1 Apr. 1680; Mary, 14 Aug. 1682; Daniel, 5 Sept. 1688; and Elizabeth 17 May 1692. FRANCIS, by mr. Felt in Ann. I. 171, is represent. erron. as coming in the fleet with Higginson in June 1629 to Salem, and by him correct. as in II. 630 a doubt is express. however. He was a contrib. of £50. to encourage the planta. but never came over, I think; and was one of the most active promoters, no other mem. of the comp. being so sure to attend their meet. In Oct. 1629 he join. with Gov. Cradock, Dept.-Gov. Goffe, Winthrop, Saltonstall, treasr. Harwood, Johnson, Pynchon, and Vassall, in writ. from London to Higginson and Skelton, as to the "divers scandulous and intemp. speeches passed form one or both of you in your publ. sermons or pray." as report. by the two members John and Samuel Browne, wh. had accomp. those min. Of course he was not a fellow-passeng. but was (under direction of the Gov. and comp. in Eng. to Endicott) to have a mill privilege in the Col. and all this appears from thee rec. I. 39, 401, and 408, in connex. with 128, showing that our Gen. Ct. in Boston, Sept. 1634, wrote to him, George Harwood, and other great friends in London, to intreat them to choose one of themselves treasr. for this planta. in lieu of Harwood. Tho. the Edit. of Transact. or Amer. Antiq. Soc. III. suppos. that he d. bef. sett. up his sawmill [[444]] here, to me it seems equal. prob. that he was engag. in business of too much import. at London to come over, and intend. to carry forwards the mill business by a serv. or factor. GEORGE, Dover 1642, tax. 1648, d. 1650. HENRY, Boston, merch. came from Salisbury, Co. Wilts, with w. Dosabell, perhaps in 1637, when Felt marks a gr. of ld. to him, but more prob. in 1638, adm. of our ch. 6 Feb. 1639, as was she on Sunday foll. made freem. 13 Mar. next, constable 1641, brot. only ch. Margaret, wh. had been bapt. at S. 25 Sept. 1625. Prob. she was b. by a first w. for in the parish rec. of St. Edmunds at S. may be seen, that Henry W. m. 23 Apr. 1627, Jane Woolford, and so we may assume that Dosabell was third w. This w. d. 28 Feb. 1660, and he d. 7 Sept. foll. and prob. his d. was sudden, as Elizabeth the d. of his only ch. was m. on the same day to Robert Gibbs. Margaret had by spec. license of the Gen. Ct. permiss. Sept. 1642, to m. first Jacob Sheaffe, and sev. yrs. aft. his d. she m. Rev. Thomas Thacher. His will of 5 Apr. 1660 is very full, and may be read in Geneal. Reg. X. 177-80. It was pro. 13 Sept. foll. and perhaps his est. was the largest that had so early come into Ct. Inv. was £7,819. 5s. 2d. Six clerg. were favor. with small lagacies, and John and Samuel Sanford, s. of his sis. Elizabeth had £80. ea. but perhaps they were in Eng. as was a sis. of his w. also a legatee. Webb was largely engag. in the Lynn iron works and a great benefactor to Harv. Coll. beside legacy of £50. gave that fine prop. betw. Washington and Devonshire streets in B. where the great publishers, Little Brown & Co. have long exhibit. their treasures. JEREMIAH, Northampton, s. of the first John of the same, m. a. 1693, Priscilla, McLathlin, had Joanna, b. 16 Mar. 1694, d. in two wks. and in Geneal. Reg. III. 400, her name was mistaken for Jonathan; Priscilla, Aug. 1695; Esther, 23 Dec. 1697; Josiah, 28 Mar. 1700, d. at 23 yrs.; Daniel, 1702; Sarah, Apr. 1704; Joseph, Mar. 1707, d. at 2 mos.; Elizabeth 6 May 1708; Experience, 12 Nov. 1710; and Moses, 20 Mar. 1713; had sec. w. Sarah, but no ch. by her is kn. and he d. 5 Mar. 1734. JOHN, Boston, adm. of the ch. 9 Feb. 1634, then call. single man, and of wh. I hear no more, unless he went home that yr. and came again with Stephen in the James from Southampton, emb. in Apr. 1635, and arr. 3 June. Both are call. laborers or husbandmen, said to be of Marlborough in Wilts, but favored also with an alias Evereed, and it may be that both points of the description were to delude the tyrannic. formality. He was adm. freem. 7 Dec. 1636, sr. co. 1643, one of the early sett. of Chelmsford, there was ens. and rep. 1663, 4,5, but in the last yr. was expelled. fin. and for a season disfranch. but soon restor. had gr. of ld. at Dracut 1667, d. 16 Oct. 1668, by the strange occur. of being drown. by a whale, unless a false a spread, wh. may be seen in Rev. [[445]] Samuel Danforth's writ. for Roxbury ch. where he insert. it the next day. See Rev. Simon Bradstreet's Journal in Geneal. Reg. IX. 44. JOHN, Saybrook 1648, may bee s. of Richard of Hartford, for he is enum. the same yr. as of that place, and is perhaps the man wh. d. there 27 May 1684. JOHN, Boston, a brazier, adm. inhab. 24 Nov. 1651. JOHN, Northampton 1655, had by first w. Ann, at Hartford, Mary, b. 5 Feb. 1648, wh m. 24 Mar. 1663, John Arle; Sarah, wh. m. 17 Dec. 1668, Zechariah Field; Richard, 1654; and perhaps Lydia, wh. d. at N. 1667.

JOHN, Northampton, s. of the preced. m. 12 Dec. 1665, Susanna, wid. of Matthew Cole, only ch. of Henry Cunliffe of the same, had John, b. 8 Jan. 1667; Henry, 27 Nov. 1668; Ann, 4 Feb. 1671; Ebenezer, 16 Jan. 1673; Sarah, 28 Dec. 1674; Mindwell, 31 May 1678; Mary, 20 Aug. 1681; and Thankful, 21 Apr. 1684; and he d. 3 Apr. 1720, in ripe old age. His wid. d. 30 Oct. 1735, aged 90. JOHN, Salem, 1667, is prob. the same wh. m. Bridget Whitford of the same, and had Bridget, b. 17 Aug. 1678. JOHN, Braintree, m.

JOSEPH, Fairfield, perhaps s. of the preced. nam. in Mather's Hecatompolis, bred at H. C. 1684, first of the name, where he was expel. as by the Diary of Noadiah Russell in Geneal. Reg. VII. 53 is relat. and he tells how soon he was restor. m. 1691, Elizabeth youngest d. of Isaac Stratford, ord. 15 Aug. 1694, had prob. Joseph, Y. C. 1715, and d. 19 Sept. 1732. NEHEMIAH, Boston, youngest s. of Richard of the same, cordwainer, sold, 1670, his sh. of paternal est. RICHARD, Weymouth, had Joseph, b. 19 Aug. 1640; and Nehemiah, 19 Oct. 1641; rem. to Boston, prob. in 1644, there offer. those ch. to bapt. 12 Jan. 1645, the rec. of first ch. varying from certif. copy of W. town rec. only in call. 17 Oct. the day of b. of the younger, but shockingly proving its falsity as to the f. of the other. He was a shoemaker, had w. Mary, and in Oct. 1648 unit. with James Everill and others in ask., incorpo. for their handicraft; made his will wh. names no w. 1 July 1659, and d. next day. RICHARD, Cambridge, freem. 6 Nov. 1632, is count. as one of those order. by Ct. to [[446]] rem. from Braintree, by Dr. Holmes in 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. VII. 10, certain, went in the great migrat. with Gov. Haynes, and other friends of Hooker, and sat down at Hartford, was of the gr. jury 1643, in few yrs. aft. rem. to Norwalk, and there, too, was one of there first sett. He had w. Elizabeth and d. July 1665, his wid. wh. d. 24 Jan. 1681, being then charg. for est. larger than any exc. three in that town. He left no ch. but took Sarah, d. of Rev. Samuel Stone, and brot. her up, until she m. Thomas Butler of Hartford; and in Hall's Hist. we see that the wid. empower. a friend, in 1677 to adj. with Butler and his w. for their claim of the est. of her h. Butler's w. had half. and by the Court was distribut. other portions to Bartholomew Barnard, wh. was h. of Sarah, d. of Thomas Birchard, to Richard Homes, Stephen Beckwith, Thomas Barnum and others, of whose degrees of consanguin. it may not be easy top determine. Still, in 1694, among the voters in that town is Ebenezer W. RICHARD, Northampton, br. of the sec. John of the same, sw. alleg. 8 Feb. 1679, by w. Patience had Ebenezer, b. 27 July 1684; Ann, 2 June 1686, d. at 5 yrs.; Patience, 7 Sept. 1687; Jonathan; John and Thankful, tw. 28 Feb. 1692, of wh.

She was prob. the wid not the d. SAMUEL, Braintree, perhaps younger br. of John of the same, m. 16 Dec. 1686, Mary, d. of Joseph Adams of the same. STEPHEN, perhaps br. of John, was fellow-passeng. in the James 1635, from Southampton, both honor. with the alias Evered, and both from Marlborough in Wilts; but no more is kn. of him on our side of the ocean. THOMAS, Charlestown, by w. Mary, had Sarah, bapt. 17 June 1666; Thomas, 5 Mar. 1668; may be that mariner of Boston, taking deed of ho. and ld. Mar. 1661, from Nathaniel Fryer, and perhaps went home for short time, coming back in 1671. WILLIAM, Boston, had been one of Roxbury ch. bef. adm. freem. 25 May 1636, and in the list of mem. to his name is add. the informat. that his w. was excom. in 1642. Of course she was restor. on express. of penitence, rem. not long aft. and with recommend. tho. Ellis omits his name; was adm. of Boston ch. with his w. Rebecca, 7 Apr. and d. Dec. 1644. His wid. in Apr. 1653, sold the Roxbury est. That William wh.

THOMAS, York, prob. s. of the preced. may not have any thing descernib. a. him beyond what Willis tells I. 215. In Apr. 1695, the wid Mary W. was adm. of the ch. in Charlestown, but I can only look on her as his mo.-in-law. WEBSTER, BENJAMIN, Salem, wh. was wound. in the gr. Narraganset fight, 19 Dec. 1675, when k. Philip's power was brok. was of Appleton's comp. and may therefore have been of Ipswich, yet by Felt II. 505, call. of S. EBENEZER, Hampton, sec. s. of Thomas of the same, n., 25 July 1709, Hannah Judkins, had Rachel, b. 17 May 1710; Susanna, 9 July 1712; Ebenezer, 10 Oct. 1714 (wh. m. 20 July 1738, Susanna Batchelder, and by his first ch. of the same nam. was gr.f. of Ezekiel and Daniel, the disting. advocates and statesmen); William, 26 Aug. 1716, d. in few yrs.; John, 4 Aug. 1719, d. in few yrs.; Hannah,m 1722; Mary and Joseph, tw. 15 Sept. 1724; and Edward, 9 Feb. 1728; and d. at Kingston, 1 Feb. 1736. HENRY, Boston, by w. Esther , had Ann, b. 9 Feb. 1683; and John, 28 Sept. 1688; yet no more can be told of him. ISAAC, Kingston, s. of Thomas, m. 1 Apr. 1696, Mary Hutchins, had John, bapt. 27 June 1697; Jonathan, 30 Apr. 1699; Hannah, 22 Feb. 1702; Elizabeth Mar. 1704; Sarah, [[448]] d. young; Samuel, b. 26 Mar. 1714, d. soon; Samuel, again, 25 Aug. 1715; and Gideon, 20 Dec. 1716; and d. 1718. ISRAEL, Newbury, s. prob. not eldest of John of Ipswich, b. in Eng. a. 1624, perhaps in Co. Norfolk, m. says Coffin, 3 Jan. 1666, perhaps 1667, Elizabeth Brown, had Elizabeth b. 7 Oct. 1668; and his w. d. 3 days aft. His sec. w. m. 9 Nov. 1669, Elizabeth Lund, d. of the first Henry, brot. him Ann, July 1672; Joseph, 15 Mar. 1676, d. at 4 yrs; Mary, 18 May 1679; and Lydia, 20 Dec. 1681; and he d. 7 Dec. 1683. The wid. d. 3 Aug. 1688. JAMES, Boston, a brewer, by w. Mary, had James, b. 16 July 1659; Thomas, 11 Jan. 1662; John, 5 Aug. 1664; William, 25 Mar. 1667; Elizabeth 14 May 1670; Mary, 9 Dec. 1672; Mary, again, 15 July 1686; and James, again, 27 Aug. 1688. But may it not be prob. that the last two were by a sec. w. or prob. offspr. of the eldest s.? JOHN, Ipswich, came, says tradit. from Ipswich in Co. Suffk. 1634, freem. 4 Mar. 1635, had John, b. 1632, prob. in Eng. and here d. 1645, leav. 4 ds. Mary, Hannah, Elizabeth and Abigail, and three other s. Stephen, Israel, and Nathan, as the Gen. Ct.'s act on wid's petitn. shows in Col. Rec. II. 184; beside wid. Mary, wh. m. John Emery, as Farmer says. Much diligence had been by him bestow, on this fam. yet more was giv. to ano. wh. he found, contra. to his first impress. was entitl. rather than this man to be regard. as the progenit. of the late illustrious statesman, Daniel Webster. I regret to obs. the slight error of Dr. Bond (if it be an error) in mak. Thomas, wh. is the true progenit. of Daniel, m. a. d. of deac. William Godfrey, bec. Godfrey in his will truly calls him s.-in-law, as he was s. by a former h. of Godfrey's w. But more desir. is it to avoid the error of Miss Thomas, who would make John of our Ipswich, the ancestor, and Thomas his son, when it appears plainly that John had not son Thomas, and that Thomas's f. d. at Ormsby, in Co. Norfolk, prob. as there the s. was b. and the mo. had m. deac. Godfrey bef. leav. Eng. * JOHN, Hartford 1636, but from what place in Mass. he went is uncert. By fam. tradit. he was from Co. Warwick. He was rep. 1 May 1637, a magistr. from 1639 to 1655, when he was made dept.-gov. and next yr. gov. In the gr. contest a. ch. governm. he took sides with Rev. Mr. Russell of Wethersfield, and that caused his rem. up the riv. to found Hadley in 1659, by our Gen. Ct. was adm. freem. of Mass. and in May 1660 made a magistr. there, d. 5 Apr. 1661. Robert, William, and Thomas, his s. are said to have foll. their f. but tho. the respectab. ref. in Farmer's MS. for this tradit. is made to letter of the late Noah Webster, the grammarian, I doubt his studies had been too long turned in ano. direction to justify unlimit. confidence in all parts of his relat. and that Robert did not foll. but accomp. his f. to Mass. He brot. from Eng. w. Agnes, ch. Matthew, Robert, Ann, Elizabeth and Mary; perhaps, [[449]] also, Thomas and William, tho. one or both of the latter may have been b. on our side of the ocean; and fam. tradit. makes William b. 1617. No dates of b. of any of the seven are giv. by the most valua. work of Goodwin, pub. since the d. of the compiler. From the will of 25 June 1659, little is learn. but the names of four s. two ds. Ann Marsh, w. of John, and d. Markham, beside two gr.ch. Jonathan and Mary Hunt. The name of mo. was not ment. and prob. she was oldest d. if not even oldest ch. When or where she m. Hunt, or what even was his bapt. name is unkn. Tradit. in the fam. makes his name John, and hers, Mary; and it may be conject. that both were d. JOHN, Portsmouth 1648, a brewer, as constable was allow. charge for bring. Henry Taylor a prisoner to Boston, in Col. Re. III. 140. He may be the man to wh. gr. of ld. was made by Salem 1638, in hope to draw him, and d. 1662. JOHN< Newbury, s. of the first John, b. in Eng. was in milit. trouble as Col. Rec. IV. 362, and, very briefly, Coffin, 62, sufficient. relate. He may have been the man by Farmer call. in blacksmith, early at Haverhill; but to N. went back, had with his mo. and the younger childr. says Coffin, rem. from Ipswich, m. 13 June 1653, Ann Batt, perhaps d. of Nicholas, had John, b. 11 Feb. 1656; Mary, 29 Mar. 1658, d. in few wks.; Sarah, 1 July 1659; Abigail, 16 Mar. 1662; Lucy, 19 Dec. 1664; Mary, again, 24 May 1667; Stephen, 8 May 1669; Ann, 7 Sept. 1671; Nicholas, 19 Oct. 1673; and Jonathan, 21 May 1676. JOHN, Newbury, s. of John of the same, took o. of alleg. 1678, and was freem. 1690, m. 9 Mar. 1681, Bridget Huggins, perhaps d. of John, had Ann, b. 9 June 1682; John, 2 Nov. 1683; Sarah, 28 Dec. 1685; Israel, 9 Apr. 1688; Hannah, 5 Oct. 1692; and Stephen, 11 Jan. 1698. JOHN, Hampton, s. of Thomas of the same, m. 21 Sept. 1703, Abiah Shaw, and had sec. w. Sarah. His ch. were Jeremiah, b.

THOMAS, Boston, mariner, adm. of the ch. 7 Apr. 1644, and freem. next mo. THOMAS, Hampton, brot. to Watertown, by his mo. Margery, then w. of William Godfrey, perhaps 1638, from Ormsby in Co. Norfolk, where he had been bapt. 20 Nov. 1631, and from W. to Hampton carried in youth by Godfrey, m. 2 Nov. 1657, Sarah Brewer, perhaps d. of Thomas of Roxbury, had Mary, b. 19 Dec. 1658; Sarah, 22 Jan. 1661; Hannah, 27 Dec. 1663; Thomas, 20 Jan. 1665; Ebenezer, 1 Aug. 1667; Isaac, 2 Apr. 1670; John, 16 Feb. 1674; Joshua, 8 Nov. 1676; and Abigail, 1 Jan. 1679; sw. alleg.

John, m. 16 June 1663, Abigail, d. of George Alexander of the same, had Abigail, b. 9 Jan. 1668, d. soon; Abigail, again, 10 Jan. 1669; George, 7 Nov. 1670; John, 26 Nov. 1673; rem. next yr. to Northfield, thence driv. 1675 by the Ind. wh. destroy. his prop. he sat down at Hadley, sw. alleg. there 8 Feb. 1679, and had Elizabeth 26 Nov. 1676; Thankful, 12 Jan. 1679; and Mary, 25 May 1681; again went to Northfield, there d. 1686, and his wid. d. bef. Mar. 1690. THOMAS, Hampton, s. of Thomas of the same, m. as is suggest. in Bond's Hist. of Watertown, his cous. d. of William Godfrey, but whether this be so, is doubt. By w. Sarah, wh. d. 15 Feb. 1718, he had Sarah, b. 15 Sept. 1690; Thomas, 1693; Mary, 19 May 1696; Alice, 5 Aug. 1698; Joshua, 2 Sept. 1703; Abigail, 15 Apr. 1706; Samuel, 3 Apr. 1708; and Elizabeth 11 Jan. 1711; and he d. at Kingston, 7 Mar. 1733. WILLIAM, Hadley, s. of Gov. John, in his MS. by Farmer said (follow. tradit. prob. without reason) to be b. 1617; sw. alleg. 8 Feb. 1679; m. 17 Feb. 1670, Mary, d. of Thomas Reeve of Springfield, wh. brot. him no ch. but was accus. of familiarity with the devil, sent all the way to Boston for trial as witch in 1684, and yet was not found guilty. Had it been very few yrs. later, the result might have been differ. when the gr. adversary was foil. with his own weapons, as in the Goodwin case. He d. a. 1688, and his wid. was permit. to live till 1696. WILLIAM, Boston, m. Mary, d. of capt. Samuel Mosely or Maudsley, may have had s. of the same name, wh. d. 28 Dec. 1725, aged 28. Farmer says that in 1834, ten of his name had been gr. at Harv. six at Yale, and twelve at the other N. E. Coll. [[451]] WEDGEWOOD, JOHN, Hampton 1639, had, in 1637, when he belong to Ipswich, serv. in the Pequot war, and was wound. but in Oct. of the later yr. was sentenc. to be set in the stocks for being in the comp. of drunk.

JONATHAN, Hampton, s. of the preced. took the o. of alleg. 26 May 1669, and once more, 16 Dec. 1678. WEEBON, STEPHEN, wh. d. at Boston, Sept. 1659, inv. of whose goods and clothing, 16 Nov. foll. is in Geneal. Reg. IX. 348, from Prob. Rec. III. 171, was, I judge, only casual visitor, perhaps from the West Ind. and the expense of his board was to be reimburs. by his host being made admin. He may have come only from New York, under the Dutch, and had very small stock. WEED, DANIEL, Stamford, s. of Jonas, had been of Rye 20 yrs. bef. he d. 29 Nov. 1697, leav. four s. and a d. whose names are not found. GEORGE, Salisbury, s. of John of the same, took o. of alleg. 20 Dec. 1677, at the same time with his f. and brs. Samuel and John. JOHN, Salisbury, m. 14 Nov. 1650, Deborah, d. of Samuel Wensley, or Winsly, had Samuel, b. 15 Feb. 1652; Mary, 5 Sept. 1653; John, 1 Nov. 1655; Ann, 26 July 1657; Deborah, 15 June 1659; George, 25 May 1661; and Ephraim, 24 Feb. 1667. He was, it is said, b. a. 1627, and his d. Deborah m. 29 Nov. 1677, Christopher Barnard the sec. of Newbury. JOHN, Stamford, s. of Jonas of the same, m. Joanna Westcoat, d. of Richard, had Jonas, b. 1665; Daniel, 1667; John; Samuel' Joseph; Isaac; Mary; and Hannah, all nam. when the inv. was brot. in 15 Jan. 1690. JONAS, the freem. of 18 May 1631, of wh. nothing more is told, exc. by Bond wh. discov. from Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 2, that he had been dism. from the ch. of Watertown to that of Wethersfield, but the date in Bond, p. 963, 29 May 1635, is by me confidently read 29 Mar. 1636. Of course he came in the fleet of 1630, and by Bond's reasonab. conject. in the ship with Sir Richard Saltonstall. I find a Jonas, perhaps his s. at Stamford 1669, then seek. to be made freem. of Conn. but he is accomp. in the same good purpose by JOHN wh. may be gr.s. of the first Jonas. Mr. Judd enlarges our acquaint. with him by tell. that he was of Stamford 1642, until he d. 1676, his inv. being of 5 June in that yr. He made his will Nov. 1672, nam. four s. John, Daniel, Jonas, and Samuel, four ds. May, w. of George Abbot; Dorcas Wright, w. of James; Hannah, m. 5 Jan. 1670, Benjamin Hoyt; and Sarah. His wid.

[[452]] Farmer notes that in 1834, seven of this name had been gr. at N. E. coll. of wh. I find four at Yale, two at Harv. WEEDEN, EDWARD, Boston, came in the Susan and Ellen from London 1635, aged 22, by w. Elizabeth d. of Samuel Cole, had Samuel, b.

SAMUEL, Newport, by Benedict enumer. among the founders of the ch. 1644. WILLIAM, Newport, one of the founders of the Bapt. ch. 1644, may have been br. of the preced. and is found in Dr. Stiles's list of freem. there 1655, and a deac. d. 1676, early in that yr. nam. one of the trustees of a charity. WEEDER, JAMES, Newport, among the freem. of 1655, unless the last letter should be n, as seems prob. WEEKS, AMMIEL, Dorchester, perhaps s. of Goerge of the same, brot. in early youth, freem. 1657, by w.

His wid. d. 10 Apr. 1723, aged 89. Elizabeth m. 20 Mar. 1679, Richard Mather, s. of Timothy, as one auth. assures me. while old Dorchester, in Geneal. Reg. V. 467, asserts that her h. was Timothy. AMMIEL, Dorchester, s. of the preced. m. 21 Nov. 1682, Abigail, d. of William Trescott, had Ammiel, b. 26 Feb. 1683; Abigail, 29 Apr. 1687; and Goerge, 20 Mar. 1689; both the s. being rememb. in the will of their gr.f. T. leads one to presume the other ch. d. young. CHRISTOPHER, Boston, by w. Mary, had Christopher, b. 24 Sept. 1695; and Mary, 29 Nov. 1697. EBENEZER, Dorchester, s. of Ammiel the first, m.

FRANCIS, Providence 1637. But for insert. of this and the other R. I. numerous hosts, whose name is more common, spelt Wickes, ano. place may seem better. GEORGE, Dorchester, freem. 13 May 1640, brot. w. said to be Jane, sis. of Roger Clap, and s. Ammiel, William, and Joseph, tho. the last may have been b. at D. d. 27 Oct. 1659, says Farmer, foll. the town rec. in wh. date Geneal. Reg. V. 467 follows him; but the inv. in Geneal. Reg. VII. 334, unless the figures be wrong, proves that he d. 28 Dec. 1650, for it was taken 22 Jan. foll. and perhaps the d. of Oct. 1659 may have been of inf. s. of Ammiel the first. Plainly the numerals a. the inv. in Geneal. Reg. are erron. for aft. that date, four ch. of his are bapt. viz. John, 7 Mar. 1652, Elizabeth 18 Sept. 1653, wh. prob. d. soon; William, 20 Aug. 1654; and Elizabeth again, 14 Sept. 1656. In the Hist. of D. compiled, with unusual diligence, by Ebenezer Clapp, 137, is the true date. JOHN, Dorchester, perhaps s. of William of the same, m. 4 Nov. 1674, Sarah Hammond, but no more is kn. of him. JOSEPH, Dorchester, s. of George, prob. b. in Eng. m. 9 Apr. 1667, Mary, d. of maj.

He was freem. 1673, and d. 31 Oct. 1690; and his wid. d. 17 Sept. 1692, aged 56, if the inscript. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 169, be not erron. as I suspect. It was a mistake of Dr. Harris, very easily made, to read the names of his man and his f., as Wilkes. JOSEPH, Dorchester, prob. s. of Ammiel the first, by w. Sarah, had Elizabeth b. 31 Aug. 1691; Sarah, 3 Apr. 1693; Hannah, 6 Apr. 1695; Experience, 2 June 1697; and Thankful, 29 Apr. 1699. His w. d. 12 Feb. 1736, aged 74, says the gr.st.

He may have preach. for the Coll. Catal. prints him in Roman let. and adds that he d. 1689. This last fact could not have been within the kn. of F. as the custom of noting the yr. of d. has been wisely introd. since his time, but he would have been more precise in his latitude of dying bef. 1699, had he turned to the Hecatompolis, while consult. Mather, he would have seen, that in 1696, he marks Enfield vacant. PHILIP, Ipswich 1664, m. 1665, Hannah, d. of Henry Haggert of Wenham, had Philip, b. 27 Dec. 1668; and Moses, 25 Nov. 1685; perhaps others; rem. to Kingston, N. H. there his s. Samuel had Samuel, b. 1 Sept. 1710, wh. d. 5 Apr. 1823, aged therefore 112 yrs. 6 mos. and 23 days, as Farmer, in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll.

Hannah, d. of Thomas Buckingham, and his ch. were Mary, b. 14 Aug. 1655; Thomas, 28 Jan. 1658; Sarah, bapt. 1660; Esther, 1664; and Lydia, wh. d. 1685 at 16 yrs.

To discrimin. the spell. of these fam. names by e, and s has been impossib. and Farmer did not attempt it, tho. he div. the tribes as arbitrarily as was necessary. He marks the gr. in 1834, under Welch as 7 at Yale, 3 at Harv. but under Welsh gives Yale none; and I find at Harv. three more with the s. WELCOME, PETER, Boston, mariner, had, I suppose, mov. in from some other place; possib. he was s. of William of Pemaquid, bec. nothing of him is found in town or ch. rec. but his will of 23 Feb. 1695, [[456]] pro. 28 Mar. foll. gives to his d.-in-law Mary Howard, half of his dw.ho. and shop, salt ho. wharf, *c. she paying his s. Joseph, on his com. of age, L30. or if not so paid, he should have that moiety, and the other half to s. Peter; all personal est. to d. Mary Townsend, exc. sea books and instrum. with wear. apparel, that should all go to Joseph. WILLIAM, Pemaquid, took o. of fidel. to Mass. 1674, as it seen in Col. Rec. V. 18. WELD, or WELDE, DANIEL, Braintree 1640, freem. 2 June 1641, by w. Alice, wh. d. 18 Apr. 1647, had Dorcas, b. 6 Apr. 1643, d. in few wks. By ano. w. Ann, wid. I think, of George Hyde of Boston, he had at Roxbury, whither he rem. with recommend. of Braintree ch. 1651, Benjamin and Mehitable, tw. b. 1655, bapt. 16 Mar. 1656, both of wh. d. next yr.; Daniel, b. 14, bapt. 17 Oct. 1658; beside ano. Mehitable, whose b. or bapt. we find not (yet she may be d. of ano. Daniel); but the town rec. ment. d. 12 Jan. 1680. He was town clk. 1654, and much interest. in sch. for wh. the Gen. Ct. in 1659 reward. him with 200 acres, a gr. equal to that of Corlet at the same time, Col. Rec. IV. pt. I. 397; and d. 22 July 1666, aged 81, says the town rec. His will of 1 July preced. was pro. 3 Nov. foll. In it he gives all his prop. to his w. Ann, dur. wid. ment. s. Daniel as hav. had his full portion of est. and more than remain. yet liv. in Eng. and whether liv. or d. unkn. to the testator, yet he leaves him 20s. and aft. provid. for w's. third, if she m. gives all resid. to her s. Timothy Hyde, equally with his own ch. Joseph and Bethia. He makes his cousins Edward Denison, Thomas Weld, and John W. overseers of the will. Now great uncertainty arises hereon, whether the yrs. of his age in the town rec. be not far too high, if he be f. of those tw. in 1655, and also whether the Daniel b. Oct. 1658, were s. of gr.s. DANIEL, Roxbury, s. of Joseph first of the same, was sch.master aft. leav. coll. perhaps at Cambridge, but soon rem. to Salem, there was a physician, had early m. Bethia, sec. d. of Edward Mitchelson, serv. in Philip's war, at least in the Narraganset campaign, 1675, as chief surg. and d. May 1690. At Salem were b. to him, as Felt says, Barbara, 3 Oct. 1673; and Elizabeth 28 Mar. 1675; besides at Cambridge had Daniel, b. 20 Aug. 1663; Edward, 7 June 1666, wh. was also a physician, but d. 3 Oct. 1702, at 36 yrs.; and Bethia, 24 Jan. 1668. At Salem, also, were b. Joseph, 1670, wh. d. soon; Joseph, again, 1671, d. in few mos.; Micherson, Apr. 1672, d. next yr. His wid. d. 24 Oct. 1719, in her 70th yr. Perhaps the same man at Roxbury, of whose derivat. aft. great search, I am unable to conject. otherwise, had Mary, b. 19 Feb. 1676, and may have been f. of that Mehitable, wh. d. 12 Jan. 1680.

Coll. wh. in 1644 was whip. by the Presid. for break. and rob. his uncle's ho. wh. was then in Eng. and this disastrous discipline would naturually induce the youth to hide there bef. his return. See Winthrop II. 166. The fam. tradit. is that he was min. of a parish in Durham, whose name call. Riton is not to be easi. found, near his f,. prob. and he may have been eject. instead of that Thomas, wh. Calamy names, by the Bartholomew Act. as the f. was in his grave bef. that day. JOHN, Roxbury, s. of the first John, m. 22 Jan. 1679, Hannah Portis, had John, b. 22 Apr. 1680, d. in few days; Hannah, 14 Dec. 1681, d. in few mos.; John, again, 7 Oct. 1683, d. in few wks.; Joanna, 15 Sept. 1685; Abigail, 19 Aug. 1687; Margaret, 6 Mar. 1690; Elizabeth 20 July 1692; Sarah, 17 Nov. 1693, d. at 15 yrs.; Dorothy, 21 June 1695, d. in few days; Samuel, 18 May 1697, d. in few mos.; and John, 18 Nov. 1698.

Yet what was the day of bapt. is unkn. since the earliest ch. rec. of Roxbury is also lost; Daniel, 18, bapt. 25 Sept. 1642; Joseph, 6, bapt. 9 Feb. 1645, d. at 10 mos.; and Marah, bapt. 2 Aug. 1646, tho. the town rec. makes her bapt. on the impossib. day 6 July, and the child's name Jeremiah. The apostle Eliot in his rec. asigns the cause for the bitter name, that the f. "is now in gr. afflict. by a sore on his tongue." He was freem. 3 Mar. 1636, rep. 1637 and sev. yrs. more, was capt. of the milit. of good est. and high reput. and d. of a cancer, or was bur. not as Ellis says, 8 Sept. but 7 Oct. foll. the b. of his last ch.

SAMUEL, Roxbury, s. of Thomas the sec. m. 23 June 1683, Susanna, d. of John Polley of the same, had Dorothy, b. 28 May 1684; Samuel, 21 July 1686, d. in few days; Samuel, again, 30 Oct. 1687, d. in few mos.; Ebenezer, 24 Jan. 1690, d. young; was freem. 1690. His w. d. 20 Apr. 1729, and he d. 2 Sept. 1737. THOMAS, Roxbury, br. of Joseph the first, and prob. younger than him, was bred at Trinity Coll. Cambridge, where he had his degr. 1613 and 18, was min. 1624, at Terling, Co. Essex, a 38 ms. from London, by w. Margaret had John, bapt. 6 June 1625; Thomas, 1626; Samuel, 8 Oct. 1629; and Edmund, 8 July [[459]] 1631, H. C. 1650; according to cetif. from the present vicar of the parish to my young friend Weld, that the rec. is made and sign. by the f. and obs. his handwrit. was so obscure, that the day and mo. of the bapt. of sec. s. could not be made out. Perhaps the third s. did not live long, at least we hear nothing of any other ch. than the three brot. by him, with their mo. in the William and Francis, leav. London 9 Mar. and arr. at Boston 5 June 1632, he hav. enjoy. the benefit of being excommun. the yr. bef. by the driveling malevolence of archbp. Laud, then only bp. of London. Next mo. he was sett. at Roxbury, and 6 Nov. foll. made freem. but whether he had more ch. or when his w. Margaret d. and a sec. w. Judith was tak. as the Roxbury ch. rec. proves, and other details, are not found. He was earnest in the synod of 30 Aug. 1637 against the antinom. doctrines of Mr. Wheelwright, in stat. the eighty-two errors, and their confutat. with some unsound axioms as decid. by that grave Assemb. with wh. the first twenty pages of the work, call. a Short Story of the Rise, Reign, and Ruin of the Antinominian's Familists, &c,. publish. by him in London, 1644, are fill. and the authorship of that part would do no discredit to him or any other divine of the land. Of the next twenty-three pages, the proceedings of the Gen. Ct. 2 Oct. (should be Nov.) 1637, another hand may have been the reporter; but no more blame attaches to any other portion, than to the copy of the petition, writ. as Winthrop tells, by William Aspinwall, in favor of Wheelwright, with wh. these proceedings are appropriat. introd. Whatever hand report. these proceed. it could not well have been Gov. Winthrop at least in the full transcr. for on p. 27 it is alleg. that Wheelwright was requir. if he did not in 14 days depart from our jurisdict. "to render hims. at the ho. of Mr. Stanton, one of the magistr. there to abide as a prisoner, till the Ct. should dispose of him." Now this could not have fallen from the Gov. whose narrative in sev. items, p. 246 of Vol. I. varies from this report, and does not name the magistr. but uses the phrase, "one of the magistr." wh. where then only seven, beside hims. and the Dept. But Col. Rec. I. 207 has the name of Stoughton; and no Stanton was ever one of the magistr. Next comes, strange interject. betw. the report of the judicial proceeding of the Nov. 1637 Court and the Apology for the proceedings of the Gen. Ct. 9 Mar. preced. i. e. Mar. 1636-7, the nauscous detail of the monstrous birth 17 Oct. 1637, by Mrs. Dyer, one of Wheelwright's adherents, as the same was popular, circulat. in Boston, and in almost the same language as Winthrop I. 261-3, has giv. it. A briefer narrat. of her misery in that untimely birth, was print. at London 1642, with other similar cases of misfortune, as I saw in the British Museum. This acco. [[460]] varies only as one relat. of so disgust. a story must be expect. to differ from ano. especial. as every admir. of horrors could then be easi. gratif. when the Gov. had, as he tells us in his hist. by advice of the magistr. and min. caused the decaying remains to be disinterr. Yet what thus bec. fully kn. to prob. most of the men, women, and half gr. ch. within four miles (and Weld liv. only two miles off), is by the Hist. of Boston held for proof, that Winth, not Welde, was the author, as "two men without close confer. could not have writ. things so exactly coinciding." See Drake, 218. Ano. proof of the same nature is brot. forward by a writer with the signature of Hutchinson in the recent. issued Historical Magazine for Nov. 1857, fill. almost four pages at the begin. of the No. After the apology (wh. covers thirteen pages) for the early proceedings at the Gen. Ct. against Wheelwright's Fast sermon, near the top of 59th page, begins prob. Weld's "additions to the conclusion of the book," written in a very different style from the apology, and evident. a continua. from near the bottom of p. 43, and now reaching to the end of the little vol. on p. 66. What gives the chief value to his humble 4to. however, is the Preface, signed T. Welde, in small Rom, cap. for the earlier copies, in small Italic, not cap. in the later. It fills sixteen pages of small type, and is written with great spirit. Equal in pungency to the style of this preface, is that of the conclusions in the last seven pages. Such pungency, using a mild term to express what in the writing of any but a clergym. seems malignity, is not seen in any other writer on that subj. But bef. the Preface is print. a remarkab. address "To the Reader." "I meeting with this Book, newly come forth of the press, and being earnestly pressed by divers to perfect it, by laying down the order and sense of this story (wh. in the Book is omit.) tho. for mine own part, I was more slow unto it; not as if I think it contains any thing but truth, but because the names of some parties that acted in our troubles, that have, since that time (I hope) repented, and so God having pardon. their sins in Heaven, I should have been loth to have reviv. them on earth. But considering that their names are already in Print. without any act of mine, and that the necessity of the times call for it. and its requisite that God's great works should be made known, I therefore, in a straight of time, not having had many hours, have drawn up the following Preface, and prefixed hereunto with some additions to the conclusion of the Book. I commend thyself and this to the blessing of God. T. W." If to disting. the tone and temper of the Apology, that may natural. be presum. the composition of Gov. Winthrop [see his Hist. I. 221] from other parts of the tract, except the documenta. pieces proper [Ib. 248] resort be had to critic. comparis. of style, slight difficult. will attend the separat. of what is betw. the two covers of the binding. [[461]] Against the errors of Wheelwright, and the fantastic revelations of Mrs. Hutchinson, Welde could not more sincerly show his zeal, than Winthrop but his zeal is denunciatory, fierce, and virulent, while that of the Gov. seems cautious, calm, and moderate in terms, decisive in spirit. Even in type of the same forms, it may be followed, like the fabled river, in its nameless course under the sea, as told by Virgil, En. III. 686, bearing the true, unmixed proof of its fountain: nunc Ore. Arethusa, tuo Siculis confunditur undis. Some slight regard to a charge, publish, 26 May 1853, in the Hist. of Boston by Mr. Drake, against my argum. as to the authorship of the "Rise, Reign, and Ruin," p. 249 of Vol. I. of Winthrop Hist. of N. E. may decent. now be shown. That my remarks therein involve an accusat. of Welde "as absurd as it is unjust," may pass without comment; but as the Histor. of Boston proceeds to observe on my criticism that "it is criminal so to do," I appeal from his decision to the competent tribunal of gentlemen and scholars in this and all succeed. ages. Weld had gone him, in comp. with Hugh Peter and Mr. Hibbins in Aug. 1641, they being jointly charg. with a commiss. from the governm. to represent our means and wants, in wh. they met extraord. good success, procuring benefact. to extent of L500. bef. Hibbins's ret. in Aug. foll. I have seen among MSS. in the Col. Libr. copious acco. of Dr. and Cr. of Weld, wh. seems to have suffer, no little suspecion, and rec. some unkind treatm. from our Gen. Ct. wh. hardly ever fail. to be dissatisf. with their agents in Eng. and wh. in Oct. 1645, adopt. a vote, that Mr. Peters and Mr. Weld "having been long absent, may understand the Ct.'s mind, that they desire their presence here, and speedy return." On this ungracious invit, neither came, but ea. gain. destinct. in the mother land. Weld obt. a living at St. Mary Gateshead, Co. Durham, and d. says the rec. of Roxbury ch. (not likely in such a case to be wrong), 23 Mar. 1661; I think it is said, at London. This was soon aft. the Restorat. of the k. and bef. the great ejectm. Perhaps I may be excus. for along explanat. as to what is said in my sec. ed. of Winthrop in a note on I. 248, publish. 1853. Having never bef. 1842, heard any doubts of the agency of Weld in the publicat. of that interest. little volume of wh. everybody knew he acknowledg. the preface and conclusion, and my suspicion being excited, at the British Museum, by the unexpl. address to the Reader, that suspicion in 1843, was express. by me in a single line of my Gleanings in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 285. Attention was thus drawn to the matter, and it was supposed by some that in Baylies's "Dissuasive from the Errours of the Time," London 1645, and Cotton's "Way of Congrega. Chhs. cleared," [[462]] London 1648, wh. had a reply to some of Baylie's aspersions, it might appear, that Gov. Winthrop was as much engag. as Weld in the publicat. of Short Story of The Rise, Reign, and Ruin. A friend lent me these two works, and they did not produce on me the impress. some persons receiv. perhaps without close examinat. For instance, in Ecclesiast. Hist. of N. E. I. 329, Mr. Felt observes on my suppos. that Welde compos. and arrang. the greater part of the work so publish. and that Gov. W. was auth. of the rest, entit. a Brief Apology, &c. and adds, "But it is clear from Baylies and Cotton, that Winth, did write "The Book" as stated by Weld "to the Reader." Now each of the three parts of this affirmat. is wrong. Weld hims. does not state "that Winthrop did write the Book," wh. is too bold and direct assert. for the crafty writer of that addr. wh. does nothing more than suggest that somebody beside T. W. was the writer or editor. Baylies, p. 57, in strong desire to censure Cotton for his familism and antinom. relies upon "the witness of Master Winthrop the wisest of all the N. E. Governors hitherto, and of Master Wells, a gracious minister of that land in their printed Relations of the Schisms there;" and he preceeds to cite passages equally from the Preface or conclusion, as well as from the Proceedings or the Apology, a dozen or twenty from each, but a diligent, not a superficial scrutiny through his quotations will give a great preponderance to those acknowledg. to be Weld's On p. 64 also, Mr. Felt refers to Winthrop's Narration, but in the very last line preced. refers to this work as the testimony also of Weld. In defence of hims. Cotton follows Baylie very closely, quoting the exact phrases of his antagon. and so. p. 56, refers to "the witness of Winthrop and Wells," not even correct. the spell. of his name. On p. 57 citing from B. the "testimony from the Court, wh. (it is likely) was deliv. by Mr. Winthrop being then Gov. [as in] p. 35 of the Short Story," &c. so that the weight of his evidence is, to the least scruple or even grain, of the same weight, and no more, with Baylie's, to prove in Mr. Felt's words "that Winth, did write the Book." Prob. Mr. Felt had not, when he compos. that passage, examin. those authors, or, at least, his survey was cursory, for in Ib. 534, speaking of the publicat. of this pamphlet in 1644, he uses similar words: "Its preface was by Mr. Weld, and the rest of it by Gov. W." overlook. the acknowledgm. of Weld, that the conclusion, wh. even slight observ. must make seven pages, was by him. Writing of the end of Weld's life, Mr. Felt uses more precision, p. 436. "He was engag. with Gov. W. sen. in prepar. the Rise, Reign, and Ruin," &c. in N. E. Yet what Gov. W. contrib. was in Mar. 1636-7, the Apology and perhaps part of the Proceedings in Nov. 1637, publ. in Boston as much as in London, but NOT PRINT. in either, while Weld was the publisher, by [[463]] his own confess. overrul. the London press in 1644, so that my expression, as he fairly gives it on his p. 329, may stand unreprov. Beside, Mr. Felt candidly, p. 554, takes notice, that Wheelwright, s. of Rev. John "endeavors to show from the concessions of Weld, that his f. did not adopt the main principles of his sis.-in-law, Mrs. H." and he still more fairly quotes a let. of 1647, from Hooker of Hartford to Shepard of Cambridge, both of wh. must have kn. what the truth, and the hole truth was a. the publicat. "I cannot be persuad. but these men" [the Scotch Presbyterians, Rutherford and Baylie] HAD A SECRET HAND TO PROVOKE MR. WELD TO SET FORTH HIS SHORT STORY," &c Certain. Weld's desire was not be thot. author of the "Short Story," &c. and he would gladly have the reader presume that Gov. Winthrop whose name belongs to part of the official documenta. matter therein print. had issued the vol. tho. any careful student could detect the most of the pages due to ano. hand. The assist. librar. at Harv. Univ. drew my attention to the vol. of Rutherford, professor at St. Andrews, call. Survey of Spiritual Antichrist. London 1648, p. 171, where he says of our N. E. heretics, "They held these wicked tenets especially, that follow, as may be gathered out of the story of the Rise, Reign, and Ruin of the Antinomians and Libertines that infected the Chhs. of N. E. penned (as I am informed) by M. Winthrope, Gov. a faithful witness, and approv. by M. T. Weld in his preface to the book." This is in c. XV, yet in the next c. p. 180, he twice names Weld as author of that work, as in the first sentence of the same c. p. 176, of Mrs. Hutchinson, one of the authors of the "wicked opinions," he borrows the happy designat. of our Roxbury historian, saying "This woman is call. the American Jezabel." How R. was informed that Gov. W. penned the work, may easily be conceiv. for in his sev. journeys from St. Andrews to London, and back, his road lay straight thro. Gateshead, opposite Newcastle, wh. was Weld's resid. So high was his estimat. of the vol. that in the sec. pt. of R.'s work, it is cit. hardly less than three hundred times, always by the tit. of Rise, Reign, and Ruin. It must be kept. constant. in mind, that Rutherford and Bailie were of the four great Scotch magicians employ. as mem. of the famous Westminister Assembly, that sat above five and a half yrs. to regulate the true faith for all future time. Great opportunities for acquir. knowl. as to every thing. espec. of a relig. value, that had occur. in N. E. were, of course, enjoy. by them. Being sharp, reprov. in the Geneal. Reg. VIII. 84, for what is my sec. ed. of Winthrop's Hist. of N. E. was utter. about the attempt of Weld to conceal his first connex. with this work, I may be permit. in explanat. if not justificat. to add not a little. By the change of words, [[464]] "the authorship" of Short Story is made the matter of controversy, and that man of straw is put forward, wh. may be left to the critic; for my chief inq. was confin. to the publicat. or editorship; having only in a single instance named Weld as author of Rise, Reign, and Ruin, and then in note on Vol. I. 258, in the closest relation to a passage from the preface, signed by hims. and the very last words of the conclusion on p. 66. So that the differ. betw. the critic and myself is very slight, as to material passages by me ascrib. to Weld, "BEYOND WHAT HE HAS HIMS. ACKNOWLEDGE." In the futher opin. of the same writer "that whatever Mr. Weld did, he did under the direction or by the adv. of the dominant party here," all may readi. aggree. A little outbreat of bitterness in the Preface, or in the 'additions to the conclusion of the Book," may seem very natural in that age; and in the larger report of the case of Mrs. H. in Hutch. Hist. II. 482-520, wh. should be read by every one that desires to know the full extent of the tyranny, we easily discern, how eager in the prosecut. were Dudley, the Dept.-Gov. wh. was of Weld's ch. at Roxbury, Endicott, Bartholomew, and Nowell, of the laity, as, of the clerg. Symmes, fellow-passeng. with her, Shepard and Hugh Peter, the fellow-passeng. of W. on the homeward voyage. No one could be misled by my words, as if I asserted that Weld, more than Peters or anybody else, wrote the petition in favor of Wheelwright, or the Apology, or the Proceedings of the Court in the larger part, or the popular report of poor Mrs. Dyer's affliction. He is responsible, as Editor, for all but the strictly official docum. Now without intend. any invidious allegat. as to a single word in the vol. "beyond what he has hims. acknowl." I renew my remark, that he bears the responsib. for all exc. from p. 46 to the third line of p. 59 inclus. bec. it was print. under his direct. and most of it is evident. his own composit. The friend, wh. the critic says pointed out my error, was, yrs. ago, satisfied that I had good grounds for my opinion. The diligent asisst. librar. of Harv. Coll. in his MS. on the reverse of the title-page of "Antinomians and Familists condemned," had noted, that it was the same work with Weld's Short Story, and infer. that it was an earlier impression, because Short Story gain. the Note to the Reader and the Preface; and he then adds (without hestitat.) from that address, that it appears, Thomas Welde "was not the author of what is contained in the present vol." His caution was not excit. by the admiss. of Weld hims. as to the "additions to the conclusion of the book," and he believe. what the rev. casuist cunning desir. rather than what he said. My suggestion that this title-page was a sneaking device to give support to the false implicat. in the Note to the Reader, is by the Geneal. Reg. critic submerg. in the conject. that it "might have been, and no doubt was, a [[465]] printer's error" !! Large inq. has been provok. by this bold assumption and unusual state of things. The first result is from collation by Mr. Livermore of the copy in College Libr. of "Antinomians and Familists," with the Athemaeum copy of the "Short Story," and he assures me that it is apparent that from p. 1 to 66, where the Athenaeum copy breaks off, the correspondence is perfect in every letter, typographical error or not, as l. 6 on p. 46 spread has the let. r pushed out of its place, so that the lower is as high as the upper part of the letters on either side: -as p. 1 of Short Story, begins with signat. B. in the copy that has sixteen or eighteen pages of prefatory matter, so begins with signat. B. the copy devoid of those pages; and so on p. 9 in each of these books is signature C -- on 17 D -- on 25 E, &c. with the trifling except. on p. 62, 1. 8, the parag. ends in one with the words "slighted had so much," in the other, "had so much slighted," no letter being changed. An expert in printing, or even an apprentice, would judge of Antinomians and Familists, &c. from sig. B on p. 1, that sig. A had once preced. it, tho. page 1 follows next aft. title-page. Mr. Marvin, an accomplish, printer, on first sight observ. that the Preface had been suppressed, and that the title-page was print. from the same form as Short Story, substituting other words, for all above the imprint. Indeed, to suppose it possib. that the work, without the preface, was issued first, is very like the expectat. of seeing the second story of an edifice sustain itself in the air before the first is built for its support. The forms are identical, the ornaments unchanged, as on the title-pages of both a border of twenty-one types or beads runs by the sides, nineteen more at the top, and eighteen at the bot.; and no letters were distrib. from the form to the case betw. the strikings off for one and the other through the whole. Yet so widely differ the title-pages, that one would judge instantly, that years might interven. betw. them, one showing only forty-one words, the other, one hundred and fifty-six, above the imprint; while that imprint of three lines disproves the whole cunning of the change, for there exactly as in the body of the two books, all the letters, and figures, and imperfections, and punctuation, and errors, were immovable. The words above the imprint in one are removed from the other, and new ones inserted, except the very large letters of the single word NEW-ENGLAND running wholly across the wide page, some of wh. the keen eye of my young friend, W. H. Whitmore, detected as unmoved; and a less practised vision would instantly perceive, when directed to it, how the first E in that word differs from the sec. E and confidently assume that the enormity of the first E might prove it to be the only one of the kind in the print. office of Ralph Smith. The last letter but one of that word in a copy wh. to me seems clearly, by a hundred indicat. to have been [[466]] among the earliest taken off from the standing form, is a well looking, perfect captital, but in two other copies appears to have its face battered, as if it had been in irregular company, and in the only other copy ever seen by me, the body appears to have a twist, wh. may account for the bruise on its face. Which now, of these two, both print. early in 1644, was prior? Very short time, only few hours prob. elaps. betw. them; and further scrutiny of the note to the Reader may be useful to aid the decision of that question. The opening words are "meeting with this Book, newly come forth of the Press;" and it is very strange, that no other man than Thomas Weld is kn. to have ever seen such a supposed book, bef. or since. Industry was most active, in that day of civil war, to hunt up every thing as soon as print. The eager friend of King Charles I. in London, whose assiduous attent. to such serv. furnishes one of the most curious and complete assortment of treasures in the British Museum, contain. near. thirty thousand pieces and tracts, bound in over two thousand vols. in the order of success, dates betw. 1640 and 1660,must be inq. of whether this be one book or two. Now in that vast collect. this tract stands with only the tit. Short Story, &c. obtain. by the book collector 19 Feb. 1643, and no such work as "Antinomians and Familists condemn." &c. is nam. Next, in reference to the point of priority, should be weigh. what is told in that note to the Reader, as to the names of some that acted in our troubles, wh. the writer says "are already in print. without any act of mine." But we are left uncertain, whether that print without his act means (as seems fairly to follow) in the Book newly come forth. Unless it may be shown, that such print. of the names can be found elsewhere than in Short Story, bef. the issue of Antinomians and Familists condemn. it may well be thought this addr. to the reader is only a subterfuge. Such evidence it may be hard to find; yet no other man than Weld can be nam. wh. would in London be so deeply engag. in such cause. But what motive had Weld to make such a statement? To this question, a reasonable reply is, that he might fear prosecution for libels by one or another. Friends of the parties implicat. must have been numerous eno. in London; for tho. Gov. Cradock, Sir Richard Saltonstall, Sir Bryan Jansen, treas. Harwood, Alderm. Andrews, Col. Ven and others, may have been impartial, Sir H. Vane would, of course, sympathize with Cotton, Wheelwright, and the majority of his fellow-worship. in Boston ch. Mr. Hutchinson also had a br. there, wh. had liv. here, was of high esteem and large property, and beside others of the Antinom. party, Coggeshall was a man of influence in Boston, and Aspinwall a ready writer, both able to command friends in the great city; while Wheelwright, s. of one of the [[467]] princip. suffer. was able to issue the very next yr. in "Mr. Weld's his Antitype" observat. on "a paper styled a Short Story of the Rise, Reign," &c. Even without suppos. any unworthy fear in him that prompt. what he wish to have consid. as a sec. ed. of a Book bef. issued by ano. person, and that, as he says, "the necessity of the times call for it, and its requisite that God's great works should be made known," he might deceive himself into the hope, that "Antinomians and Familists condemn." tho. issued by the same publisher, the same yr. if publish. without preface, would to taken to be a different composure from Short Story, with a preface one quarter as large as the whole work. Well might he believe, that in those stirring times of extreme convulsion and civil war, nobody would have the leisure and take the trouble to ascertain, that his publicat. was indeed two faces under one hood. Next may our scrutiny be applied to his excuse of "being earnestly presseed by divers to perfect" the work, "by laying down the order and sense of this story." Perhaps any other man, with half as much literary skill as T. W. would have giv. a very differ. ORDER to his materials, at least so far as chronology is concered. If he did not print the Apology for the Gen. Ct. of Mar. 1636-7, begin. p. 46 before the result of the Synod 30 Aug. - 22 Sept. foll. wh. begins on p. 1, he would naturally (unless blinded by a strong sensibility) have giv. it place prior to the preced. of not merely a later sess. of the same, but of ano. Gen. Ct. in Nov. 1637, wh. begins on p. 21 See our Col. Rec. I. 187 to 205. What good reason for breach of such natural sequence of time can be conjectur. I see not, nor is it necessary to think of a bad one; especial. as in putting all the matter bef. p. 46, Mr. Weld, the Editor, seems to have arrang. with high regard to this point, making a blunder of Oct. 2 for Nov. 2 as date of open. the session of the Ct. that the postponement of Mrs. Dyer's unhappiness, wh. had been at two public lectures of the first ch. largely spoken of by Mr. Cotton (as Winthrop tells, in his Hist.) when prob. Mr. Weld and other min. from the neighb. twons (wh. usually attend. the Thursday lect. were present) 17 Oct. might seem to be in a fit place. A reasonable cause for this breach of natural order may be found in the circumstances that led Weld (but would lead no other person) to think more of Mrs. Hutchinson than any thing else in the long agony of the antinom. controv. In Nov. 1637 she was commit. to custody of Joseph Weld, own br. of the casuist, in the town of Roxbury, her banishm. being suspend. until the spring. While thus a prisoner for more than four mos. all access of husband, childr. friends denied, exc. with leave of the Ct. as in Col. Rec. I. 207-25 is seen, she was expos. to visitat. of any holy inquisitor; and the min. of R. must have used his sacred office with equal ardor for her conversion, and [[468]] vexation at his ill success. This will explain to milder natures, the wondrous malediction with wh. he closes the Short Story. Still the suspicion arises, from the anxious reference to "laying down the order and sense of the story," that the ill arangement is due to design rather than accident. How else could occur the interrupt. on p. 43, where the parag. ends wiht the words "issue whereof is set down in the next," when we are unable to find the next, and connnect. thread for more than fifteen pages onward, or a chasm of near one quarter of the surface of the vol. Would not any ingenuous mind, on sec. reading, become suspicious at the apparent anxiety express. in that "addr. to the Reader" (whether spring. from fear or ill-will), lest the writer of the long preface, might be thot. to have had too intimate connex. with the prodution of the ensuing short story? Words are liable to misapprehens. we all know, from carelessness or ignor. of him who uses them; but especially when equivocat. is resolv. on; and in writing much more than in oral speech, we wish for precision, not ambiguity. Yet an author's idea may be mistaken when he intended to be punctiliously precise, tho. less frequent. than if he be habitual. careless. His words convey sometimes more, or others less than he intend. Of course two readers may obtain from the same words quite dissimilar impressions. A recent example will illustrate. In note 1, on p. 238 of Winthrop I. my first ed. 1825, I had printed this remark. "The work has not, I presume, been often quoted within a century." Of course the same words stand in the next ed. 1853. Citing this passage, the writer, careless or over cautious, of the review in Geneal. Reg. 1854, adds, "and yet we know that it has been very often quoted within a quarter of a century." On cursory perusal, this may, in one man's opin. seem a contradiction; while a slower reader would perhaps give it very differ. name. If the two readers call for solution of the oracular ambiguity of the writer, prob. a short minute's explanat. would make their judgments agree. Now to conclude the point of priority of issue -- the fictitious titlepage "Antinom. and Fam. condemn." assum. in Geneal. Reg. to be "no doubt a printer's error," as if by fortuitous concourse of atoms, it fell into that place, I had presum. to be unique, having only heard of the single copy in the Coll. Libr. I have gain. recent knowl. of ano. copy in the collection of Rev. Dr. Choules, since his d. together with his copy of Short Story, dispers. by auction. Whatever value, more or less, was then due to my infer. from the Coll. copy, as a device to cover Weld's connect. with the Book, is of course doubled, and proportional. weaken. is the assumpt. that it was "no doublt printer's error." Evidence positive, is, also, obtain. that the Choules copy of Short Story, with the note to Reader, Preface, and P. S. and ano. own. by Col. Aspinwall, whichever [[469]] of the two were first struck off, came both from the press BEF. the delusive publicat. of the same work under the title of "Antinomians," &c. WITHOUT the malignant preface. The testimony is indubita. it appeals to the eye; and tho. the form of ea. of the 66 pages in all the copies is unchanged, slight correct. of errors in the earlier ones are traced clearly in the later. For instance, the sig. of p. 1 of Short Story, in the copies of Aspinwall and Choules, is C. 2; -- of p. 3 is C. 3, and so onward to p. 65 wh. is L. 2, whereas the two copies of Coll. and Choules of the same work, under the NEW title without Preface, begin. (as does the Athenaeum copy with the Preface and old title) with B. for sig. of p. 1, and so proced. to p. 65 wh. is K. Will any sagacious observer doubt about priority? Each of the copies, of so great rarity, has worth of its own; and that of our Athenaeum, tho. wanting the four last pages, derives high value from the notes in sev. places, writ. by Thomas Prince above one hundred and twenty yrs. since, especially his testimon. on the title-page, "Preface and conclusion by Thomas Welde." This is the well-kn. handwrit. of the Annalist. My presumpt. is that this identical tract was once his, for in his own catal. he inserts, in its proper place, "T. Welde's Short Story, &c. London 1644," and it is not now found in his N. E. library. A very valua. copy of the unmutilat. work, own. by Charles Deane, concurs with the Coll. copy depriv. of its Preface, and issued under the new name, in every word and letter, monk or friar, or other irregularity, like the imperfect copy of the Athenaeum, exc. as bef. explain. in the changed place of a single word, slighted, on p. 62, that requir. no editorial cunning, but must have been done by a compositor. Will any one doubt that Mr. Deane's copy (after the Preface, wh. is not seen in the Coll. copy) was struck off from the same forms as that, when he compares not pages merely, but words, and even letters in each, as on p. 12, the remarkab. first letter of Error 65, unlike any other in the long enumeration, or p. 4, the strange initial of Confutation 19, or asks, without expecting answers, why the letter C. should have different shapes, proudly beginning Confutat. 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 13, 15, 18, 20 to 40 inclus. 42-56 inclus. 61-65 inclus. 68-75 inclus. 81 and 82, in ITALIC TYPE in each of the books, while it subsides into the modest Roman in 4, 5, 8, 9, and all the others? Similar exact conformity as to the spelling of the word, according to the then established usage, Errour, is found in both, and similar, also, is the use or non-use of the double e in be, he, me, she. For instance "Antinomians and Familists" of the Coll. Libr.has the important word, for the first twenty times that it heads a parag. p. 1-4 spelled without u; but the next nineteen times, the u creeps in; the [[470]] ensuing twenty-seven times it is ejected; fourteen times next follow. is bless. with u; and lastly No. 81 is written with five letters, and No. 82 with six; while in every one of them Mr. Dean's copy of Short Story agrees. More striking is this conformity, because apparently earlier copies vary much in such petty particulars. The solitary, abnormal E. in Mr. Dean's copy, Error 65, changes places with Col. Aspinwall's E. in Error 72, and so no complaint of partiality can arise. Still, it may be said the identity of Dean's "Short Story" with Coll. "Antinomians and Familists" being established, nothing is yet clearly shown to prove, wh. first came from the press, but only that, whichever was first, the other follow. very soon, perhaps in few hrs. or even minutes. Now by comparing with Dean's copy (that has the preface) that of Aspinwall (wh. is equally complete) it may easily be seen that A's. is several hours, or even days, earlier in its issue. But bef. taking up the preface, where the diversity is greater, let the curious student look at two or three small points in the body of the work, wh. is identical in substance, and seeming. in letter also, with the Coll. tract that wants the preface. On p. 1 in the Confutat. 4 and 5, the citation from the prophet Isaiah viii. 20, in A's. copy writ. Eas, in D's. and Coll. copies becomes Esay; p. 2, under Error 8, Corinth. in A's. copy, is properly shortened inthe otehr two to Cor.---p. 3, line 5, true (in the brackets) it changed from Italic, as it is in A's. copy, into Roman letters to conform with other Roman letters in the same passage of the other copies; p. 21, in the blunder of date of the term of Court (wh. could not have been mistak. by Gov. Winthrop) October in A's. copy is abbrev. in the others to Octob. Weld in London wrote the wrong mo. P. 33 in two places, A's copy has Hutchinson, but in seventeen other places the name is Hutchison, without n in sec. syl. while the other copies give the name every time without that letter, so preserving uniformity betw. spell and sound; p. 35, the rule "I permit not a Woman to teach," in A's. copy is print. in the Italic; in the other two, in Roman character, conformably to the rest of the page, and the cap. W. of A. is reduced in these to a small letter; and other examples abundantly serve to prove, that A's. was the earlier impression, correct. by the compositor in later ones. The texture of the paper in the different copies seems different, Aspinwall's being manifest. coarser. The top of Aspinwall's p. 7 is printed 9, and 10 is used for 8, 11 for 9, and so on, until, by giv. 15 and 16 twice, his copy agrees with others, in all the later pages; but the other copies throughout have a military accuracy of count. A correct. copy may certain. well seem later than one less correct, and instances enough may be seen in that of Col. A. having double e, where Mr. Deane's has single e, as in the passage on p. 62, so oft. refer. to, the latter reads "she [[471]] had so much slighted" when the former adds an e to the first word, and crowds ano. e. bef. i in the last word. May I not suggest, with becoming modesty, that the better copy is the later? Yet more direct is the evidence (to the same point) derived from what printers call overrunning or spacing out, to improve the appearance of a line or a page. Several such I pass by in the first fifteen pages, as also words chang. from Italic to Roman letters, but on 16th p. the top line of Aspinwall's copy contains at the end the citat. "Acts 15; 9," wh. is made the whole of sec. line in the others. Then to equalize the number of lines in the respective pages, the last line of A's. copy becomes first of p. 17 in the others. Many more might be quoted, but beside that it would be tiresome to do it, the GREAT evidence of unlikeness of beginning and ending of lines, without changing word or letter, exc. in space, is found in the preface. Let the introduct. note to the Reader, sixteen lines in A's seventeen in D's copy, be compar. in the two books by laying one alongside of the other, and the same heavy mass of ornament at the top of the page is seen, -- as well as the beautiful decoration around the big I. with wh. Weld opens in ea. -- the types are the same in every letter, exc. that "straite of time" in A's. copy gains one letter in D's. by spell. "straight." Yet, altho. the initials append. (T. W.) are identical in both, the technical sig. A. 2 in Aspinwall's is deficient in Deane's; so also A. 3 on the p. next but one of A. in D's. appears * 3; and the page in A's. copy with sig. B. has two stars in D's. copy instead of a letter, and so onward, until the page last but one of the preface in A's copy, with sig. C. becomes sig. A. and last but two in D's copy. Of the earlier impress. every one of the lines is overrun, and spaced out in the later. The same cap. I. imbedd. in an ornam. wh. is seen in the opening of note to the reader for both copies of A. and D. appears the first letter on p. 1 of three copies of Aspinwall, Coll. and Deane; but in the third the color of the decoration is very much darker than in those two. Very great variety is seen in the preface, especially in the ornament across the first page, and the types for title, while hardly a letter is changed, and the forms plainly are the same; that is, the types were never distrib. A's. copy gives the first word "AFTER," while D's uses Italic caps. for the whole word; and the first letter is twice as large in the latter copy, and five-fold more decorat. Nine lines of the first page run over from Aspinwall's to the sec. of Deane's; and the last nine lines on the next of A. become ten lines in D. and twelve lines at the foot of next p. in A. swell into fourteen upon the top of the foll. in D. The accumulat. is seventeen on D's next page, eighteen on next; but with that number the addition ceases; and the Col's awkward squad is made to dress regularly in lines thus altered; [[472]] that is the last eighteen lines, inclus. of the previous signat. T. Welde, closing the preface, run over form the foot of Aspinwall's page, and spread upon the upper middle of Deane's. Nothing else is seen to change betw. Aspinwall's and Deane's beyond the trifling amendm. that a compositor naturually introduces, such as substituting "and" for &, and reduc. the author's name from Roman caps. to Italic in conformity with the preced. type. Deane's is the most correct exemplar, but Aspinwall's for its very incorrectness ten times more valuable in petty history. Will any one but Mr. Drake believe, that all the succession of appearances proves nothing to strengthen into certainty my conject. how Weld desired to supply a shield for his temerity, or a cover for his cowardice? -- that the long title-page of "Short Story" was not print. bef. "Antinomians and Familists" was writ.? -- that this new title for the same book instead of a "printer's error" sprang not from design and intent to mystify? -- or that it is wrong in me, at this late day, to expose such a typograph. curiosity? Would any London printer in 1644, I dare to ask, after having a corrected copy of a work, as Antinomians and Familists (if printed first) is shown to be, immediately after issue, from the same forms, an impression of Rise, Reign, and Ruin, with a copious preface and address to the Reader, and postscript, containing many errors and obliquities of type (in the BODY of same work) as Aspinwall's and Choules's copies exhibit? Two questions natural. arise to embarrass those that would glad. seem believers of Weld's ingenuousness, -- first, wh. was corrector of the press that obtain. aft. three or four trials, as pure a text for "Short Story," as was enjoy. by "Antinomians and Familists," if this tract were print. bef. that, when both tracts are tak. from the same types lock. up into the same form AT LAST, when "Antinomians and Familists" agree wholly with the latest impression of the Short Story? -- sec. who gave Thomas Weld the right to put a preface equal to one fourth of the tractate, with an address to the Reader, beside "laying down the order and sense wh. in the book is [was] omit." "as also additions to the conclusion of the book?" He prob. utter. indirect suggestions, ambiguas spargere voces, that the orig. work was above six yrs. bef. concoct. in Boston, where Winthrop was in the chair of Gov. when SHORT STORY was purch. in London by the King's purveyor, perhaps in few hours from its issue, and where I doubt not the publisher of ANTINOMIANS AND FAMILISTS had act. as the Editor of what, on our side of the water, when forgotten on the other, was down to 1843, always called Weld's Rise, Reign, and Ruin. As to any moral delinquency in my regard "to the memory of Mr. Welde." that may be left in silence, without fear, to any human tribunal; but in the Court of criticism, I can kiss the rod cheerfully, and [[473]] desire only that my submiss. continue until competent opinion be obtained as to whose back it should fall upon. Yet the sentence pronounc. against my criminality, in exposing the attempt at decept. by Rev. T. Weld, may lessen the reverence due to the spotless judicial ermine, even on the shoulders of the historian of Boston. Some readers perhaps will rejoice that so many hours were giv. to this investigat. by sev. of my friends, tho. that the collation of both copies of Mr. Choules's vol. under the true and the spurious title, was confin. of necessity to few hours by a most cautious reader in the auction room, only few days bef. the sale, is much regret.; yet they may hereafter be on their guard against the artifice of a casuist, that for a season delud. the sagacity of the sublibrarian of Harv. and triumph. over the innocence of Felt. * THOMAS, Roxbury, s. of the preced. b. in his f's parish in Eng. where certif. of his bapt. may be seen, freem. 1654, m. 4 June 1650, Dorothy, d. of Rev.

THOMAS, Hartford, an orig. propr. as also at Wethersfield, appears first in the Rec. of that Col. Trumbull I. 9, as the sec. magistr. at the Gen. Ct. 1 May 1637, when war was denounc. against the Pequots, they hav. long been hostile, and the proportion of 90 men fixed for the sev. plana. viz. Hartford, 42, Windsor, 30, and Wethersfield, 18. Yet it is quite uncert. when he came from Eng. tho. satisfactor. kn. that he brot. three s. John, Thomas, and Samuel, and three ds. Mary, wh. d. bef. her f. prob. unm. Ann, and Sarah; equal. uncert. is the name of his w. though we can hardly doubt whether he brot. one; and stranger still is the uncertainty of his prior resid. in Mass. He had good proportion of the patents for Swampscot and Dover, wh. he sold Aug. 1648, to Christopher Lawson. We may then safely conclude, that a person of his educ. and good est. had not come over the water bef. 1636, and that he staid so short a time at Boston or Cambridge as to leave no trace of hims. at either, and he was estab. at Hartford bef. Gov. Haynes left Cambridge. There is, indeed, a very precise tradit. of his coming, with f. Nathaniel, in the fleet with Higginson, 1629, to Salem; but that is merely ridiculous. He took, for sec. w. a. 1645, Elizabeth wid. of Nathaniel Foote of Wethersfield; on the d. of Gov. Haynes, 1 Mar. 1654, the Dept. Edward Hopkins being in Eng. on pub. business, he was made head of the Col. with title of Moderator, but on the day of elect, in May, Hopkins was chos. Gov. and Welles Dept. tho. H. never came back to conn. being tak. by the great Protector into his Parliam. so that in 1655, hav. had the duty to fulfil in the vaction of the chair, he was chos. Gov. and Webster, Dept. and in 1656, accord. to the constitut. of the Col. "that no person be chos. Gov. above once in two yrs." Webster was made Gov. and in 1657, Winthrop Gov. while Welles was Dept. both yrs. and in 1658 made Gov. again with Winthrop for Dept. Both chang. places in May 1659, and Welles d. 14 Jan. foll. at Wethersfield. His wid. d. 28 July 1683; d. Ann m. 14 Apr. 1646, Thomas Thompson of Farmington, and next, Anthony Hawkins; and Sarah m. Feb. 1654, capt. John Chester, outliv. him less than ten yrs. and d. 16 Dec. 1698. THOMAS, Ipswich, perhaps a physician, came in the Susan and Ellen from London, with young Richard Saltonstall, aged 30, and perhaps w. Ann, 20; was made freem. 17 May 1637, had three s.

Winthrop Apr. 1662, as a grantee, rep. May foll. Assist. 1668, and next mo. was k. by a fall, as the ch. rec. of Roxbury notes "from one of his cherry-trees." Those cherry-trees some unpractis. reader of old rec. had by conject. giv. chariot, in copy. Bradstreet's Journal, as if in 1668 in the streets of H. chariots were plenty as cucumbers. See Geneal.

This union is worthy of note, because in our rec. the two fam. names Winslow and Wensley, interchangeab. may be seen confus. a thousand times, the same individ. in one line call. different from ano. line on same page. Ano. ch. was John, b. 8 Feb. 1675. From his will, 9 Dec. 1672, we find he was bound on a voyage, divides est. into eight equal parts, of wh. two to his w. two to s. Richard, left one ea. to the ds. of wh. the youngest was then unb. but by codic. in our Vol. VI. made 26 Dec. 1675, is told that "God hath giv. me two ch. more since the above." Very curious is it, that the will of his Wensley, in the rec. immediately follows that of Samuel Winslow, also of Boston, mariner. His d. Mercy m. Joseph Bridgham, Esq. and next, 8 Dec. 1712, Hon. Thomas Cushing. NATHANIEL, Salisbury, s. of the first Samuel, b. prob. in Eng. old eno. to be tax. 1650, m. 14 Oct. 1661, Mary Jones, in the will of her f. Thomas, call. Winslow, as memb. of the milit. force, took o. of alleg. 13 Dec. 1677, bot. of John Alcock, in 1661 part 1-32 of Block Island. It had been sold to A. by John Endicott, Daniel Dennison, and William Hathorne, to wh. it was giv. by Mass. governm. for their serv. in the Pequot war, when the conquest was made; and he seems to have been at Block Island 1685. * SAMUEL, an early grantee, with Bradstreet, Dudley, and others, of Colchester 1638, but not orig. sett. of Salisbury, dignif. with prefix of respect in 1650, when he and s. Nathaniel and Samuel, were tax. The s. I suppose, as well as d. Deborah, with w. Elizabeth he brot. from Eng. but other ch. b. here, were Ephraim, 15 Apr. 1641; Elisha, 30 May 1646; and the w. d. 2 June 1649. He was freem. 22 May 1639, and invent. mode of mak. salt, to wh. our Gen. Ct. gave encouragem. as in Rec. I. 331 and II. 5, or Felt II. 176. He was rep. 1642, 5, and 53; d. 2 June 1663; and his wid. Ann, a sec. w. m. 1657, wid. of Henry Boade of Wells, d. 21 Mar. 1677. SAMUEL, Salisbury, s. of the preced. perhaps eldest, b. prob. in Eng. made his will 1665, but whether he had w. or ch. is not kn. to me. What wid. W. Sewall refers to, in his diary, sub. Dec. 1686, Geneal. Reg. VI. 73, when he ment. d. of her s. Jenner in Eng. is beyond my conject. but it may not prob. be Ann, the wid. of Henry Boarde of Wells or Saco, wh. in 1657 agreed to m. this Samuel; nor should I refer to so unimport. a fact, were it not to save trouble to some hunter of the Indexes of Geneal. Reg. that Wersley VI. 243, means the same man. Sometimes this name is confound. with Winslow; and almost as oft. the name in Col. Rec. is Winslow, as otherwise.

EPHRAIM, Dover, br. perhaps youngest, of the preced. m. Mary, d. of Ephraim Miller, had sev. ch. but the geneal. in the Reg. IV. 327, owing to the lateness of bapt. in that ch. of sev. adults, so that gr.childr. seem to be confus. with childr. was exceeding. difficult, and elud. the persever. dilig. of Hon. John W. of our day, wh. suppos. him to be the man, whose will of 16 Mar. 1738, was pro. 29 June 1748. EZEKIEL, Dover, perhaps fourth s. of Elder Williams, by w. Elizabeth thot. confident. to be d. of Ezekiel Knight of Wells, was taxable at D. 1672, had six s. and two ds. prob. the foll. Paul, Thomas, John, Gershom, Elizabeth Tamosine, William, and Benjamin, wh. is presum. to be the youngest, bapt. Sunday, 25 Nov. 1722, as capt. Benjamin W. and d. 1714. GERSHOM, Dover, perhaps third s. of William, taxable 1670, m. 18 Mar. 1696, Hannah French of Salisbury, there had Mary, b. 14 May 1697; Samuel, 5 Dec. 1699; soon aft. went again to D. there had Ezekiel, 4 Feb. 1702; and Gershom, 4 Apr. 1705; and John, wh. was k. by the Ind. at Rochester, with three others, 27 June 1746. He was deac. 1717, had good est. and d. 2 Mar. 1731, at Somersworth. JOHN, Dover, perhaps sec. s. of Elder William of the same, tax. 1668, sw. fidel, next yr. with his elder br. rem. 1675, or earlier, to York, there m. Martha, d. of Ephraim Miller of Kittery, had sev. ch. but where b. or when, can hardly he made out with any satisfact. From York he rem. to Falmouth, and betw. the first and sec. destr. of that town, i. e. a. 1685, his s. Charles was b. but an elder one, John, had been b. perhaps at Kittery or York, some time a. 1677. From the doomed Falmouth, in the gr. East, war, he had rem. to Dorchester, and spent the resid. of his days in the part since call. Canton, and there Edward, Shubael, Elizabeth and Abigail, or most of the four may have been b. He was d. bef. Jan. 1710, when his wid. Martha, gave receipt in full to Judge Sewall, for all she had ever done for the Punkipaug Ind. Compare the discord. reports that the unwearied genealog. of the fam. (the Mayor of Chicago) had to encounter in Reg. IV. 327, VI. 213, and VIII. 246. PAUL, Dover, s. of William of the same, tax. there 1682, sold his est. at D. says the fam. acco. 15 Apr. 1696, then call. hims. of Newbury, but Mr. [[485]] Coffin omits him. He belongs. to Rowley at that time, where eleven of his ch. by w. Catharine were bapt. 17 May 1696, said Farmer, but only ten had been b. at that time. However, he had thirteen, as he caused them to be put upon rec. at Norwich, whither he had rem. from New London, if Farmer be right, as he gives him recommend. from R. to that place, June 1707; but prob. Miss Caulkin's would not have been silent on so good a point, and we may presume his change was only from R. direct to Norwich. The ch. may have been b. at Dover, Newbury, or Rowley; but more import, is the name and date of ea. William, 25 Dec. 1680; Sylvanus, 28 Feb. 1682; Paul, 10 May 1682 (wh. or the two preced. must be wrong); Ebenezer, 18 June 1683; Martha, 9 Feb. 1685; Mercy, 18 July 1686; Aaron, 13 July 1687; Moses, 17 Apr. 1689; Mary, 25 Dec. 1692; Catharine, 28 July 1694; Sarah, 8 Apr. 1697; Benjamin, 28 Dec. 1698; and Edward, 20 June 1700.

Elder, had first been at Exeter, 1639, in the orig. combina. with thirty-four others, and it may be that he had accomp. his fr. John Wheelwright across the ocean in 1636. He had foll. him from E. to Wells, where he was made constable 1648, but in 1650 seems ot have fix. his resid. at D.

Aft. the establishm. of the rights of Gorton and assoc. Wescott rem. to Warwick 1648, was one of the freem. 1665, and there resid. I judge, until the end of his days, 12 Jan. 1678. His ch. were Damaris, Amos, Jeremiah, Robert, and Mercy or Sarah. He is the first nam. grantee in Roger William's deed to his assoc. Damaris m. Benedict Arnold; and Mercy or Sarah m. Samuel Stafford. WILLIAM, Wethersfield 1639. WESSON. See Weston. WEST, BENJAMIN, Enfield 1686, m. 14 Mar. 1692, Hannah, d. prob. of Elias Shaddock, had Hannah, b. 24 May 1693; rem. to Middletown, there had Benjamin, 1 June 1696; Mary, 1 Apr. 1699; beside Abigail, 23 July 1716; and perhaps others. The name of his w. is read Shattuck by one; but ano. calls it Haddock, and conject. of a skilful antiq. makes it to be Hadlock, perhaps d. of James. * EDWARD, Lynn 1637, of wh. all I can say is, that Farmer quotes Lewis 64. * EDWARD, Medfield, freem. 1672, was, I presume, of Sherborn few yrs. aft. a lieut. 1682, selectman 1684, and rep. 1689. EDWARD, Dorchester, freem. 1673, wh. may seem only a repetit. of the name of the freem. of the yr. bef. call. of Medfield, for none with this is heard of at D. The succeed. ages owe much to the heedlessness of Seer. Rawson. FRANCIS, DUXBURY 1643, was one of the first proprs. of Bridgewater 1645. Baylies H. 254. HENRY, Salem, freem. 1668, was a saddler. His w.

In 1693, he was empower. to take acco. of strangers com. to the town. JOHN, Ipswich 1648. JOHN, Saybrook, or other places in its neighb. may be he wh. came in the Abigail, 1635, from London to Boston, aged 11 yrs. in 1649 was fin. £10. for sell a gun to an Ind. but four other reputa. men were equal suffer. for the same misdemean. He was employ. 1663, by the Col. to survey the bounds betw. S. and Killingworth. * JOHN, Saco, was of gr. jury 1640, sw. alleg. to Mass. 1653, sold his est. in few yrs. to maj. Pendleton, and d. betw. 29 Sept. 1663, the date of his will, and 5 Oct. next, when it was pro. It [[488]] gave to gr.ch. Ann, Lydia, Thomas, and Samuel Haley, ch. of Thomas, * JOHN, Beverly, there rep. 1677. JOHN, Newport, is seen on the list of freem. 1655. JOHN, Swansey, by w. Mehitable had William, b. 11 Sept. 1683. JOHN, Boston, Seer. of the arbitra. governm. of Sir Edmund Andros, was seiz. and sent home with him 1689. I presume his only ch. d. Feb. 1688, as Sewall notes bur. 29 of the mo. in his diary. JOHN, Ipswich, perhaps s. of John of the same, by w. Sarah had Elizabeth b. 31 July 1688; and John, 25 Feb. 1691. JOHN, Rowley, 1691. MATTHEW, Lynn 1636, freem. 9 Mar. 1637, was aft. 1646 of Newport, and is seen in the freemen's list 1655. NATHANIEL, Newport, by Farmer is call. one of the founders of the first Bapt. ch. 1644. ROBERT, Providence 1641, one of the friends of Williams, wh. denounc. Gorton and his assoc. to the Mass. as seen in Geneal. Reg. IV. 216, or 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 4; and tho. there on the list of freem. 1655, yet the rec. tells nothing of w. or ch. SAMUEL, Salem, d. a. 1685, for his inv. is of 4 Aug. in that yr. SAMUEL, Salem, m. 29 Jan. 1690, Mary Poor, had Samuel, b. 21 Nov. 1691; Elizabeth 11 Sept. 1693; Jonathan, 2 Sept. 1697; and Daniel, 22 Apr. 1699. THOMAS, Salem, came in the Mary and John, 1634, had gr. of ld. 1640, m. 11 Oct. 1658, Phebe Waters, perhaps d. of Richard, had Samuel, b. 23 Mar. 1660; Joseph, 3 Sept. 1663; Benjamin, 1 Oct. 1665; and John, 9 Sept. 1667; was freem. 1668, and there liv. 1686.

Feb. 1682 with others, by command of the town, for protect. in their est. against the claims of Mason. THOMAS, Newbury, took o. of alleg. 1669, may have liv. at Haverhill 1675. THOMAS, Wethersfield m. 1677, and by w. Elizabeth had Christopher, b. 1678; and Mary, 1680; was poor. * THOMAS, Hadley, rep. 1686. TWYFORD, Marshfield 1643, had come from London to Boston in the autumn of 1635, aged 19, by the Hopewell, capt. Babb, and was, I think, of Rowley 1667; and liv. at Salem, perhaps 1677, and Ipswich 1678. WILLIAM, Salem, m. 30 Aug. 1672, Mary Hilliard, perhaps d. of Edward of the same, had Joseph, b. 30 May 1673, d. 26 Aug. foll. Of this, tho. Farmer had no census of the name, I find thirteen gr. at Harv. and four at Yale. WESTALL, WESTELL, or WESTOLL, DANIEL, New Hampsh. in Farmer's MS. notes, must, I believe, be the man by me giv. from Geneal. Reg. VIII. 235 as Wescott. JOHN, Saybrook 1653, allow. to keep an inn 1663, and there d. 12 Feb. 1683. His wid. Susanna d. 18 Mar. 1684. By her he had Susanna, b. 1650, wh. d. bef. her f.

Surrey in Eng. both petnrs. for Mass. protect. in Feb. 1690. John was there in 1665, a selectman in 1697, and prob. f. of that col. Thomas, wh. in the expedit. of 1720 to Kennebeck, hoped to have seized Father Rasles at his mission of Norridgewock. WESTCAR, JOHN, Hadley, fin. for sell. liquor, 1665, was a trader, m. 17 Oct. 1667, Hannah, d. of Francis Barnard, petitions against imposts 1669.

DANIEL, Stamford, propound, for freem. 1670. JOHN, Boston, was a single man when adm. of the h. 12 Sept. 1640, ar. co. 1641, went home, I suppose, bef. tak. w. for in the rec. of the ch. 26 Sept. 1647 is his dism. "on desire of the ch. of Pulham Mary in Norfolk, Eng." and in May 1677 was of Harlestone in that Co. Thence he had writ. to capt. Lake, 5 Apr. 1653, to inq. if the report of the d. of his former teacher, John Cotton, was true. WESTLEY, WILLIAM, Hartford 1638, an orig. sett. tho. not orig. purchas. was excus. from watch, in 1646, perhaps on acco. of age. No fam. is heard of, but he left a wid. wh. was assist. by the ch. at Hadley, bec. she had been of their party, bef. they rem. from Hartford. WESTMORELAND, JAMES, Boston 1652, says Farmer, but no more is kn. WESTON, EDMUND, Duxbury, came in the Elizabeth and Ann from London to Boston, 1635, aged 30; m. a d. of John Soule of the same, as Winsor suppos. and had, perhaps, Elnathan, Samuel, and John. The informat. is little. EDWARD, in Philip's war, was a corpo. in [[490]] Mosley's comp. Dec. 1675. * FRANCIS, Salem, freem. 5 Nov. 1633, a friend of Roger Williams; but whether he came with him, or when, or whence he came, is unkn. nor have we the date of this join. the ch. He was rep. at the first Gen. Ct. that was attend. by dep. but was unfortunate in his w. wh. was punish. by the bilboes, tho. her offence was, as Felt presum. Eccles. Ann. I. 341, "of a religious character," and he fell into the impractica. notions as to the duty of separat. of chhs. and went to Providence with Williams, there was one of the founders of his ch. but in few yrs. disagreed with him, and symboliz. with Gorton, Wicks, Holden, and others, rem. with them to ld. a little down the Bay, purchas. from the Ind. now Warwick, was denounc. by the authority of Mass. seiz. and brot. prison. to Boston, by Ct. sentenc. Nov. 1643, as in Rec. II. 52, to be kept at labor in Dorchester, with suffic. irons to prevent escape; and liberat. at last, thro. fear of his influence over his keeper's relig. sentiments, wh. under threat of death he was prohibit. from attempt. to pervert, d. bef. June 1645, leav. no issue. FRANCIS, Plymouth, stands in the tax list for Jan. 1633, but not in that of next yr. nor is more told of him in any place within my knowledge, unless he be the same, as was call. at Duxbury, Francis West. JOHN, Salem, join. the ch. 1648, being then 17 yrs. old, if the fam. tradit. be correct, wh. seems very prob. that he came in 1644, aged 13, from Buckinghamsh. Still we must be careful to doubt in proper places, for the same valua. testim. notes on his gr.-st. "that he was one of the found. of the ch. in Reading." Now we kn. the falsity of this, for he could be only 14 yrs. old on that event. He had rem. to Reading, prob. bef. m. and his early ch. were carr. to Salem for bapt. they were Sarah, b. 15 July 1656, bapt. 10 May 1657; Mary, 25 May 1659, perhaps d. very soon, certain its bapt. is not found at Salem first ch.; John, 9 Mar. bapt. 29 Aug. 1661; and Elizabeth bapt. Oct. 1663; Stephen, b. a. 1665; and perhaps Samuel, and Thomas, as Eaton in Geneal, Reg. II. 48, indicates. In 1691 he was adm. freem. and d. 1723. MATTHEW, Providence 1644, may be the same man call. Matthew West. STEPHEN, Reading, s. of John, had Stephen, and d. 1753 aged 88. See Geneal. Reg. I. 278. THOMAS, a London merch. had engag. in plant. a col. in 1622 at Weymouth, but his sett. were very incompet. persons, much disqualif. by former habits of life and charact. the next yr. on visit to the country, he was dishearten. and gave up his hopes, went home, and in the gr. civ. war, d. at Bristol. Of this name Farmer notes fifteen gr. in N. E. coll. up to 1834, of wh. I find only four at Harv. and one at Yale. Oft. it is writ. as the sound was Wesson. WESTOVER, JONAS, Windsor, 1649, rem. to Killingworth, freem. 1658, is found in the list 1669. By w. Hannah, m. 1663, had Margaret, [[491]] b. 19 Feb. 1666; Hannah, 8 Apr. 1668; Elizabeth 3 May 1670; Jane, 26 Mar. 1672; and these are all appear. on the rec. but others he had, as by his will, in 1702, two other ds. and two s. are nam. Jonas, Jonathan, Mary, and Joanna. Perhaps one or more were not b. at K. but at Simsbury, where he d. Jan. 1709. WESTWOOD, * WILLIAM, Cambridge, where he may have been as early as 1632, came in the Francis, from Ipswich 1634, had liv. in the adj. Co. of Essex, aged 28, with w. Bridget, 32, brot. two serv. John Lea, and Grace Newell, as, being a man of good est. he had made his explora. here bef. bring. his fam. wh. in the earliest days of the Col. was judicious; freem. 4 Mar. 1635, rem. with the earliest companions of Hooker, to Conn. as an orig. propr. of Hartford, and was rep. 1636 at the first Gen. Ct. in Hartford, Windsor, and Wethersfield, then call. by the names, carr. from Mass. Newtown, Dorchester, and Watertown, respectiv. had authty. as the first constable of the Col. from Mass. aftwards at Hartford 1642-4, 1646-8, and 1650-6, rem. to Hadley 1659, and there d. 9 Apr. 1669. His wid. d. 12 May 1676; but the name was not perpet. and his only ch. Sarah, m. 30 May 1661, the sec. Aaron Cook; and large prop. was giv. to her, and her mo.

He was a man of the chief charact. in town for many yrs. says Miss Caulkins, recorder or clk. 1667, and oft. aft. selectman, rep. 1669, 70, 1, 3, 5-7, judge of prob. capt. and milt. commiss. and d. 14 Apr. 1719, Two letters from him to Gov.

I presume to be sis. of the former, and the inscript. on her gr.st. is, d. 7 Sept. 1719, aged 67. WILLIAM, Scituate, 1644, came with w. Mary and three ch. and one serv. in the Hercules from Sandwich 1635, under certif. of 14 Mary. in that yr. from the mayor of Maidstone, Co. Kent. where he was sch.-master, hav. bred at Bennet (now Corpus Christi) coll. Cambridge, and there took his A. B. 1622, i. e. Jan. 1623, and A. M. 1626, is by Frothingham, 85, claim. for resid. at Charlestown 1636, to wh. I have nothing to object, but that this name is not found in Budington's list of ch. memb. Farmer had provid. him a resid. in Cambridge also; but this, I presume, to be the same as Charlestown. He seems to have preach. at Duxbury, but bec. min. of the sec. ch. at S. in 1645, and had sev. ch. b. in this country, as prob. John; Theophilus; Elizabeth; Sarah; and Hannah, 20 Feb. 1647; but the last, it is thot. d. young; and he d. 9 Apr. 1684, aged perhaps 84. Mary, b. perhaps in Eng. m. 20 Nov. 1656; Elizabeth m. 22 Dec. 1657, John Bryant; and Sarah m. Jan. 1670, Israel Hobart of Hingham. * WILLIAM, Taunton 1643, possib. neph. of the preced. came, tradit. tells, as a cabin-boy, adm. freem. 1658, constable 1662, oft. selectman. His w. was Dorothy, but surname is not heard; and ch. were William, John, Ephraim, and Dorothy, nam. in his will of 15 Aug. 1691, pro. 18 Nov. foll. but E. was d. bef. the date of will.

Yet the name of William is perpet. in the eight generat. unbrok. WETHERIDGE. EDWARD, prob. of Boston, freem. 1644, obtain. abatemt. of excise on his wines, as in Col. Rec. II. 152. But he was, perhaps, not many yrs. here. WETMORE. See Whitmore. WEYBORNE. See Wyborne. WEYMOUTH, EDWARD, Dover 1662, perhaps s. of Robert, was b.

Mary, and ch. William, George, James, and Elizabeth NICHOLAS, Dorchester, a soldier in Johnson's comp. in Philip's war, Dec. 1675. ROBERT, Kittery, came from Dartmouth, Co. Devon, as early, says Farmer, as 1652. One Titus W. from Virg. was found d. at Plymouth 1656. WILLIAM, N. H. br. of Robert, says Farmer, MS. d. 1654. WILLIAM, Dover, perhaps s. of James, had Reuben, b. 14 June 1686; William, 10 Sept. 1689; Robert, 15 Feb. 1692; Joshua, 11 June 1695; Tabitha, 14 Oct. 1698; and Samuel, 13 Oct. 1701. WHALE, PHILEMON, Sudbury 1646, freem. 10 May 1648, m. 7 Nov. 1649, Sarah Cakebread, d. of Thomas, wh. d. 28 Dec. 1656; and he m. 9 Nov. foll. Elizabeth Griffin, perhaps d. of Hugh; but whether he had issue by either w. is unkn. and he d. 21 Feb. 1676. SAMUEL, Kingston, R. I. only s. of Theophilus of the same, had two ws. first a Hopkins, next, a Harrington, as Potter reports; and that his ch. were seven, Thomas, Samuel, Theophilus, James, or Jeremy, John, and two ds. and that he d. a. 1782. THEOPHILUS, Kingstown, R. I. came from Virg. with w. Elizabeth a. 1676, had Joan, Ann, Theodosia, Elizabeth Martha, Lydia, and Samuel; but it thot. that if not more, the eldest two were b. in Virg. Great uncertainty attaches to almost every thing he said or did, as is found oft. in regard to those wh. emig. from a dist. country, and liv. to gr. age. Potter says he knew Hebrew, Greek, &c. and d. a. 1719 or 20, aged a. 104. It would have been strange, if more than one myth had not sprung out of his grave. My first exercise of caution would be to examine the means of reducing his yrs. by 20 or near, for his only s. it is said, d. a. 1728, and it is quite improb. that when he was b. the f. was much beyond 70. Beside that his w. d. 8 or 10 yrs. bef. her h. Dr. Stiles in the exuberance of conject. that the requisite to sustain his credulity, supposes he may have been one of the regicides. But we kn. the names of all wh. acted in that tragedy, as well as of those wh. were nominat. and declin. to act. or withdrew, as did sev. aft. participat. some hours in the mockery of trial, bef. its end, among all of wh. is not that of Theophilus Whale. One of those misguid. men would have resort. to any other part of the world. sooner than to Virg. WHALEY, GEORGE, Cambridge, by w. Catharine, had George, b. 19 Apr. 1653. WALLEY, EDWARD, Hadley, one of the gr. officers wh. had fought in the civil war, and serv. Cromwell more aft. it, first in the pretended [[494]] Court for trial of Charles I. and next as one of the major-gen. to wh. the country in milit. destricts. twelve innumb. like the tribes of Israel, was made subject, as if martial law could forever be contin. Of that power, aft. short trial, tho. he was a relative of the great Protector, Cromwell's iron will was compel. to strip him, so odious had the tyranny grown. He fled from Eng. on the restorat. and with his s.-in-law, William Goffe, reach. Boston July 1660. In the foll. spring they resort. to New Haven, and thro. various suffer. found hiding at last in the shelter of Rev. John Russel's ho. at H. where d. in few yrs. and there was bur. The stone wh. was fondly suppos. from the initial letters E. W. to have been errected over his remains at New Haven, belong. no doubt, to the resting-place of Edward Wigglesworth, and bore date 1653, wh. was clumsi. attempt. to be alter. to 1673, or 8, as this might have been the yr. of WhalleyÕs death. See Goffe. WHARFF, NATHANIEL, Casco, 1658, m. Rebecca, d. of Arthur Macworth, and d. 1673, says Willis, in Main Hist. Coll. I. 65, 135. Inv. of £193. 18s. 6d. was render. 23 June.

He was liv. 1734. WHARTON, EDWARD, Salem 1655, call. a glazier, began to suffer 1658 as a Quaker, and in 1661 assist. in bur. the corpse of William Leddra, one of their martyrs, execut. at Boston, 14 Mar. as he had been whip. a year and a half bef. for his expression a. the hanging of the youths, Robinson and Stephenson, and in an intermed. time, a. 1660 whip. for pilot. some from Lynn to Salem. Similar treatm. for some yrs. later fail to enlighten him, yet he did not rem. from S. there d. 3 Mar. 1678. PHILIP, Boston 1656, by w. Mary had Rebecca, b. 5 May 1660, was displeas. with his w. for wh. he found no redress, and went away eight yrs. later, yet by order of Ct. his w. should have food and clothing. See Rec. IV. pt. II. 382; and in our Reg. of deeds it will be seen, Vol. VI. 134, that his lds. were charg. for the supply.

JOHN, Concord, made freem. 21 Mar. 1690, and ano.

Elizabeth had Ephraim, b. 14 Apr. 1640, d. at 2 yrs.; Joseph, 1 Dec. 1641, d. in few mos.; and Mary, 20 Sept. 1643; yet the rec. says her mo. was bur. two mos. bef. and by w. Sarah he had Rebecca, 6 Sept. 1645. Farmer thinks he may be the man wh. d. at Newbury, 13 Oct. 1659, that seems less prob. to me than an alternat. propos. by him in MS. that he was k. by the Ind. 22 Aug. 1675 or 6, at Lancaster. JOSEPH, Boston, a tailor, freem. 1672, was prob. s. of Thomas of the same, and a householder 1695.

JOSEPH, Milford, s. of Thomas first of the same, was there liv. 1687-1700; but of his fam. no acco. is obtain. There was a Joseph, a physician at Salem 1704. JOSHUA, Concord 1636, says Farmer, but I fear the date demands 20 or 30 yrs. addit. for by w. Elizabeth it is seen that he had Joshua, b. 1663, d. at 3 yrs.; Elizabeth and Timothy, tw. 28 Mar. 1665. JOSHUA, Concord, freem. 1690. JOSHUA, New London, s. of John of the same, liv. to old age, and left [[499]] descend. says Miss Caulkins, but she has neither indic. them nor their mo.

MOSES, Stratford 1648, is found in the list of freem. 1669, was a shipwright and thriving man, had Elizabeth b. 1 Aug. 1642; Miriam, 28 Mar. 1647; Samuel, 28 Apr. 1649; Moses, 5 July 1651; Mary, 13 Sept. 1655; and Joanna, 1659. His inv. bears date 1 Mar. 1698, but his will of 1690. Perhaps wrong date is giv. to Miriam, for she m. 1667, James Blackman. He may have liv. at New Haven 1643. MOSES, Stratford, s. of the preced. m. 28 Oct. 1674, Sarah, eldest d. of Caleb Nichols, but long it was thot. she was w. of Daniel Brimsmead; had Moses, b. 8 July 1675; Caleb, 29 Jan. 1677; Sarah, 21 June 1678; and other ch. whose names I have not seen.

Paugusset or Pawgasuck, and liv. there short time in 1664, but usually resid. at M. was lieut. rep. 1670 and 1, had large est. and d. 26 Nov. 1672; and his wid. d. Jan. 1673. His will made eight days bef. his d. provides for w. Joan, s. John, and his ds. Nathaniel and his d. Esther, wh. phrase may mean no more than w. of N. and s. Ephraim, Thomas, and Joseph. No d. could be nam. and the s. Samuel and Obadiah d. in early manhood. He ment. also, William, Thomas,and Sarah, childr. of his br. William of Stratford. THOMAS, Lynn or Salem, may have been the passeng. in the James, embark Apr. 1635, call. serv. of Austin Clement; or any other of the well-diffus. name. Perhaps he had s. Isaac. THOMAS, New Haven 1644, took o. of fidel. 1 July, was accomp. by s. of the same name, but one or both were not so well educat. as most of the sett. for the signature is found with a mark only; yet no ment. of w. or ch. appears on rec. wherein we read that "old Thomas Wheeler' d. 22 Jan. 1673. THOMAS, Stonington, perhaps br. of John of New London, may have gone with s.

THOMAS, Fairfield 1645, was a lieut. in 1653, came from Concord with first sett. bring. w. Ann, and ch. prob. all adult, or marriagable, exc. one or two and perhaps his eldest s. Thomas may not have accomp. the f. At least from his will, pro. 23 Aug. 1654, wh. we read imperfect. as part of the rec. in this place is burn. it is clear that the est. in Concord, old homestead, was giv. to Thomas; Fairfield est. to John; with notice of wid. and three ds. of wh. Hannah, the eldest, m. a 1639, James Bennett, had two ch. at Concord, and was now d. leav. four; ano. was Sarah Sherwood; and a third not m. without name. His wid. in her will of 21 Aug. 1659, pro. Oct. foll. names eldest s. Thomas, and ch. THOMAS, New Haven, s. it is presum. of the first Thomas of the same, since they are ment. as tak. o. of fidel. on the same day, had Thomas, b. 21 Apr. 1652; and certain, one other ch. if not more, bef. or aft. and d. Dec. 1656, as seems prob. bec. the inv. of L200, was dat. 2 Jan. foll. His wid. Alce or Alice m. 1657, Josiah Stanborough, or Stanbury of Southampton, L. I. THOMAS, Boston 1674, may be the same man as THOMAS, Charlestown, a householder 1677, prob. s. of the first Isaac. THOMAS, Concord, m. 10 Oct. 1657, Hannah Harrod, had Hannah, b. 25 Oct. 1658, d. within 10 mos.; Thomas, 1 Jan. 1660; had John, 2 Sept. 1661; perhaps others; was tythingman 1680, and freem. 1690. THOMAS, Milford, s. of Thomas of the same, was propound. for freem. 1671, and liv. there aft. 1687; but no details of his fam. are acquir. Of his cousin, THOMAS, Milford, s. of William of Stratford, the same deficience is felt. * TIMOTHY, Concord, freem. 13 May 1640, ens. in 1646, was a capt. late in his days, bu more oft. call. lieut. on rec. rep. 1663, and very oft. aft. d. 10 July 1687, aged a. 86, as the gr.-st. tells; had Sarah, b. 22 June 1640; had his w.

TIMOTHY, Concord, the freem. of 1690, had, I suppose, f. of the same town, but my inabil. to point him out among the scores of Concord Wheelers may be excus. WILLIAM, Stratford, br. and I think, younger, of Thomas sen. of Milford, prob. rem. from Concord with him, had w. Sarah, ch. William, Thomas, and Sarah; rem. to New Jersey, soon fell ill and the w. and ch. came back aft. his d. in 1666. His inv. was tak. in Nov.

Of gr. of this name in 1834, Farmer notes none at Harv. two at Yale, and eight at other N. E. coll. WHEELWRIGHT, JOHN, Braintree, bred at Sydney Coll. Cambr. where he had his degr. 1614 and 18, was min. at Belleau, near Alford in Co. Lincoln, whence with his w. Mary, sis. prob. of William Hutchinson, and of his ch. certain. Thomas, Catharine, and prob. Samuel, perhaps all exc. John, he came to Boston in the same ship with Rev. Samuel, Whiting, arr. at Boston, 26 May 1636, and on 12 June foll. he, his w. and the wid. Susanna Hutchinson, her mo. as I judge, unit. with Boston ch. and on 25 June 1637, his d. Mary was bapt. But the long troubles of the antinom. controv. had begun, and being banish. with his [[503]] princip. friends and adherents in 1638, he rem. to Exeter, of wh. he is justly call. the founder, being the first signer of the civil combinat. on Friday, 4 Oct. 1639; there prob. had Rebecca and Hannah, and at his next home, prob. Elizabeth and Sarah. When the N. H. planta. came under rule of Mass. in 1642, he rem. to Wells, but aft. reconcil. with Winthrop and the rest of the governm. went 1647 to be collea. in the serv. of the ch. with Dalton at Hampton, in 1657 was in Eng. and had favor with Oliver Cromwell, wh. had been intimate with him at the Univ. but he came back soon aft. the restorat. and was sett. min. 9 Dec. 1662, at Salisbury, there d. 15 Nov. 1679, aged above 80 yrs. Of his s. John it may be presum. that he was oldest ch. and never came to our side of the Atlantic, but was a scholar, perhaps a preach. in Eng. wh. publish. at London, a vindicat. of his f. in Nov. 1645, against the bitter aspersions of Thomas Welde, and very likely may have thot. it useful to display equal sprit. I can have no doubt that he was d. bef. the will of his f. His will of 25 May preced. pro. 26 Nov. foll. names s. Samuel, but not Thomas, wh. prob. was d. s.-in-law, Edward Rishworth, and gr. ch. Edward Lyde, wh. was to pay something to his mo. Mary, then w. of the first Theodore Atkinson, Mary White, d. of Edward Rishworth, Mary Maverick, and William, Thomas, and Jacob Bradbury. In Lincolnsh. and in Maine he had est. to bestow in beq. to heirs, but he thot. very little of any in N. H. Several of these seem here not to be represent. but prob. they had been provid. for at earlier days, or were d. without heirs. We must look for fuller aco. to the will (made twelve yrs. bef.) of his bach. br. Samuel Hutchinson. Of the six ds. with considerable confidence, I assign. hs. to all: Sarah, the youngest, m. 1671, as his sec. w. Richard Crispe (to her, for her portion, the f. call. hims. late of Belleau, Co. Linc. gave, 22 Oct. 1677, his messuage, with appurtenanc. at Mawthorpe in the parish of Willoughby, Co. Line. to be enj. aft. d. of donor); Elizabeth m. George Parsons, Person, or Pearson; Rebecca m. 4 Dec. 1660, Samuel Maverick, and next, 12 Jan. or more prob. Mar. 1672, William Bradbury; Mary m. 4 Dec. 1660, Edward Lyde, and next, Oct. 1667, Theodore Atkinson; Hannah m. Anthony Checkley; and Catharine m. Robert Nanny, and next, Edward Naylor. * JOHN, Wells, s. of Samuel, prob. or of Thomas, perhaps; was a col. and one of the reps. 1692, bef. and aft. the new chart. a gent. of character above suspicion, wh. to McGregor and his noble assoc. the pure blood of Londonerry or Scotch Irish presbyterians, gave quitclaim deed, 20 Oct. 1719, at Boston, of the ld. "NOT TO EXCEED TEN MILES SQUARE," call. Nutfield. That sale he deriv. authty. for, as he said, in the deed of Ind. sachems to his gr.f. 17 May 1629, wh. most elaborately spurious, purported to convey many thousand sq. miles, and has been satisfactor. shown [[504]] to be a forgery, used, to be sure, above a dozen yrs. bef. the Norfield deed, and prob. unsuspect. by him, and never seen by his f. as we may confident. believe it never was by the gr.f. wh. had honest title only to five or six hundred thousand acres under Ind. deed of a portion of the same region, made near nine yrs. later. He d. 1745. * SAMUEL, Wells, s. of the first John, m. Esther, d. of Jeremy Houchins of Boston, was town clk. 30 yrs. in 1665 appoint. by the governm. of Mass. a commissnr. for the town, or justice of the peace, rep. for York and Wells 1671, for Wells in 1677, in 1681, nam. of the Council for the Province under Presid. Danford, and d. 1700. THOMAS, York, s perhaps eldest, of the first John, made freem. of Mass. with prefix of respect, Nov. 1652, and Col. Rec. III. 333, shows he then dwelt at Wells, a selectman 1653, and commissn. the same or the next yr. prob. d. bef. his f. Among gr. at Harv. Coll. are nine of this name. WHELDEN, WHELDING, or WHELDON, GABRIEL, Malden, had w. Margaret, nam. in his will 1 Feb. 1654, prob. 4 Apr. foll. HENRY, Yarmouth 1643, of wh. no other ment. is ever found, but that he m. 25 Jan. 1648, tho. the rec. is too much worn to be sure of his w. yet if he were f. or even br. of Catharine, wh. m. Oct. 1639, Giles Hopkins, it would be observa. Sarah W. b. 21 June 1650, may have been his d. JOHN, Salem, prob. or some nieghb. town, was one of the witness. in May 1692 to prove witchcr. upon Rev. George Burroughs by the fact of holding a gun at armÕs length. WHELPHLEY, HENRY, Stratford 1645, in 1653 sold ld. and ho. in Fairfield. His wid. prob. nam. Sarah, m. Ralph Keeler. Perhaps he had Joseph and Nathan, and even more. JOSEPH, Fairfield, propound. for freem. 1670, perhaps s. of the preced. was d. in May 1682, leav. wid. Deborah, wh. d. 1690; but he had former w.

NATHAN, New Haven, from 1678 was master of a vessel, and in 1687, on voyage from Barbadoes d. and by numcup. will gave ho. at New Haven to Samuel Knifton, or some such name, s. of his sis. WHELYER, JOHN, a passeng. from Southampton 1634, in the Mary and John, if we follow the copy of the copy of custom-ho. paper, but in my opin. it meant John Whittier, or more prob. Wheeler. WHETCOMBE, JAMES, Boston, merch. freem. 1669, one of the commisn. nam. by the k. to admin. the o. 1679, to new Gov. of Mass. hav. borne a part in the funer, ceremonies of Leverett in Mar. of that yr. d. 23 Nov. 1686, says Sewall's diary. WHETNELL, JEREMY, New Haven 1639, never heard of since, I think, but see Whitnell. WHETSTONE, INCREASE, k. by the Ind. 14 Mar. 1676, at Northampton, was a soldier, I suppose, but am unable to conject. from what town, [[505]] unless Barnstable where Mercy W. was m. 30 June 1698 to Joseph Parker. JOHN, a passeng. emb. 7 Mar. 1632, at London, prob. in the William and Francis with Edward Winslow, but perhaps the real name was Whiston, wh. see, and compare 4 Mass. Histo. Coll. I. 92, also Geneal. Reg. XIV. 300. WHICHALLS, EMANUEL, is the strange name of one, wh. it is said, took o. of fidel. at Pemaquid 1674. WHIDDEN, RICHARD, Fairfield, had d. bef. 3 Nov. 1690, when his inv. was brot. n by his w. Sarah, by wh. we find he own, part of a sloop, was a mariner, had ds. Elizabeth and Sarah. SAMUEL, N.

William Cooper of Boston). He was ens. of Standish's milit. 1642 (tho. in the list of those able to bear arms in 1643, his name is unseen, exc. as * Mr. Winslow's man," wh. seems hardly so dignified a compellation as the first b. of the Mayflower might well challenge), but lieut, some yrs. later, and capt. 1673, rep. 1660 and 1673; and d. 20 July 1704, as the Boston Newsletter tells, add.

RICHARD, Sudbury 1639, is prob. the same wh. came from London 1635, a carpenter, aged 30, as the custom-ho. docket makes it. in the Elizabeth and Ann, but I can tell of him only, from Barry, that he had sh. in three div. of ld. in that town; and Col.

George Fenwick and his lady, and a ch. of famous John Davenport, who, in a letter of 27 Sept. aft. to lady Mary Vere, tells of the ship, that she was the first "that ever cast anchor in" that place. See Geneal. Reg. IX. 149 No Doubt he was bred up for the pulpit, but of his place of educ. wh. are ign. The common acco. of him is, that he was s. of a lawyer, b. a. 1597, sett. as min. at Ockham, a. 20 ms. from London, in Co. Surry, but others day Ockley or Okely in that sh. a. three ms. from the metrop. was one of the founders of the ch. at G. yet the establishm. of the ch. seems to be postpon. to 1643, prob. from the slow growth of the town. He had propty. eno. and disregard. the fulminat. of Bp. Laud for no read. the royal proclaim. for sports on Sunday, resign. his place without dispute, after serv. at the altar near twenty years in his native ld. Later in the autumn of 1650, he went home, publish. the two foll. yrs. relattions of the spread of the gospel among our aborig. and d. in the city of Winchester, it is said, in the office of min. tho. of this I much doubt, if my construct. of the lang. of letters from his s.-in-law and neph. both nam.

WHITHAM, HENRY, Gloucester m. m. 15 June 1665, Sarah, d. of Morris Somes, had Thomas, b. 29 Sept. 1666; Henry, 27 Oct. 1668; John, 19 [[518]] Feb. 1671, d. soon; Samuel, 26 Jan. 1673; and Joseph, 21 Dec. 1676. I have foll. the spelling of Mr. Felt, but may easily believe the name was Witham. WHITING, GILES, Hartford, or the town above, or the town below, excus. from train. 1643, paying 1s. every train. day for support of drums and colors; but I kn. not that any thing beyond Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 99, can be seen of him, exc. that he was a propr. of Norwalk 1654. JOHN, Salem, s. of William of Hartford, b. prob. in Eng. tho. Goodwin, 330, makes the date 1635, of wh.

After receiv. his A. B. at Harv. 1653, and A. M. 1655, was a tutor at the coll. but soon call. to the pulpit at S. in aid of aged Rev. Edward Norris, and from 1657 to 1659, acc. Felt II. 626, preach. there, but he would not sett. and went to Hartford, where he was ord. 1660, as collea. with Stone, and was adm. freem. May 1665. Rev. Jospeh Haynes succeed. S. a controv. soon sprang up betw. him and W. a bapt. of infants, of wh. the import may, I suppose, be gather. from a letter of famous John Davenport, June 1666, to Gov. John Winthrop, in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 60-2; and Trumbull, Col. Rec. II. 120. The result is more intelligib. a new ch. was gather. and 1670, W. was made pastor, and serv. until his d. 8 Sept. 1689. He had m. at Cambridge, a. 1654, Sybil, d. of deac. Edward Collins of the same, had Sybil, b. 1655, prob. at C.; John, 1657, prob. at C. d. young; both bapt. at C.; William, 1659, bapt. at C. says Mitchell's Reg. 19 Feb, 1660; Martha, 1662; Sarah, 1664; Abigail, 1666; and Samuel, 22 Apr. 1670. In 1673 he m. sec. w. Phebe, d. of Thomas Gregson of New Haven, and had Thomas, b. 1674, d. soon; Mary, 1676, d. at 13 yrs.; Elizabeth 1678; Joseph, 1680; Nathaniel, 1683, d. young; Thomas, again, 1686, d. young; and John, again, 1688, who was a merch. at Hartford, and d. unm. at 27 yrs. He had been appoint. chaplain, Aug. 1675, for the troops in Philip's war, and d. not as Trumbull says, in 1700, but as bef. said. his wid. m. 1692, Rev. John Russell of Hadley, but aft. his d. went to her s. Joseph, at New Haven; and d. 19 Sept. 1730. Sybil m. Alexander Bryan; Martha m. 25 Dec. 1683, Samuel Bryan; both of Milford; Sarah m. 19 Mar. 1685, Jonathan Bull of Hartford; and Abigail m. Rev. Samuel Russell of Deerfield, aft. of Branford. JOHN, Lynn, s. of Rev. Samuel of the same, may have gone, soon after his gr. at Harv. to Eng. and "was intend. for a Physician, but bec. a preach." says Mather, "first at Butterwick, then at Leverton in Lincolnsh. where he d. a godly conformist." Magn. III. [[519]] cap. 28. It seems from Thompson's Hist. of Boston, 349, if Farmer, in MS. be correct, that he was bur. 11 Oct. 1689, so that the Coll. catal. wh. notes his d. 1723, is strangely at fault. JOHN, Lancaster, s. of Rev. Samuel of Billerica, ord. 3 Dec. 1691, there was k. by the Ind. 11 Sept. 1697, leav. wid. Alice, d. of Joseph Cook of Cambridge, whose two ch.

JOSEPH, Lynn, s. of Rev. Samuel of the same, assist. his f. sev. yrs. and succeed. him by ord. 1680, m. Sarah, eldest d. of dep.-gov. Thomas Danforth, had Samuel, b. 3 July 1674; Joseph, 22 Nov. 1675, d. in 3 days; Joseph, again, 8 May 1677, d. soon; Thomas, 20 May 1678, d. in few days; Joseph, again, 14 Jan. 1681, d. in few wks.; John, 20 Jan. 1682, H.

He was made cornet of Hampsh. troops 1672, freem. of Mass. 1671, being then of Westfield pulpit, as Farmer in MS. thought, mistak. him. for the preced. but he was a merch. went back to Harford, m. Ann, d. of Col. John Allyn, had Ann, 28 Aug. 1677, d. at 6 yrs.; John, 13 Nov. 1679, d. young; Susanna, 18 June 1682; William, 14 Mar. 1685, d. at 17 yrs.; Ann, again, 18 Aug. 1687; Margaret, 5 Jan. 1691; and John, again, 15 Dec. 1693. He was treasr. of the Col. Goodwin says, from 1678 till his d. 39 yrs. and was succeed. 32 yrs. by his s. John. Farmer makes him to be chos. an Assist. 1683, but I doubt. His wid. d. 3 Mar. 1735. * JOSEPH. New Haven, s. of Rev. John of Hartford, m. 30 Jan. 1710, Hannah, d. of Thomas Trowbridge the sec. of the same, had Hannah, b. 21 Feb. 1712; Mary, 5 Feb. 1714; Elizabeth 8 June 1717; Phebe, 23 Oct. 1720; John, 1 Mar. 1722; Sarah, 15 Apr. 1725; Joseph, 28 Jan. 1727; and Elisha, 29 July 1729; chos. rep. 1716, and sev. yrs. later, and assist. 1725-46; and d. 4 Apr. 1748, as did his wid. 9 Aug. foll. NATHANIEL, Dedham, had a gr. of ld. in Lynn, 1638, but was of D. 1641, freem, 18 May 1642, m. 4 Mar. 1643, Hannah, eldest d. of John Dwight of the same, had Nathaniel, b. 7 bapt. 29 Sept. 1644; John, 29 Sept. bapt. 11 Oct. 1646, prob. d. soon; ano. John, next yr. d. soon; ano. s. 30 Dec. 1649, whose name eludes [[520]] me. tho. Goodwin calls him Samuel, b. 20 Nov.; Hannah, 17, bapt. 22 Feb. 1652; Timothy, b. 5 Jan. 1653; Mary, 8 July 1656, d. soon; Mary, again, 12, bapt. 24 Oct. 1658; Sarah, 3 Dec. 1660; Abigail, 7 June 1663; John, again, 19, bapt. 23 July 1665; and Jonathan, 9, bapt. 20 Oct. 1667, and perhaps more. Goodwin adds Judah, b. 20 Mar. 1670; and Ann, 25 Feb. 1672. I suppose he liv. in that part wh. bec. Medfield. NATHANIEL, Medfield, s. of the preced. was freem. 1672, driv. by Ind. hostil. to Roxbury, by w. Hannah had Jonathan, b. 9 Oct. 1677; and prob. had other ch. at M. for the name spread much in that vicinage. OLIVER, Billerica, s. of Rev. Samuel of the same, m. 22 Jan. 1690, Ann. d. of capt. Jonathan Danforth of the same, had nine ch. of wh. only Samuel, b. 6 Sept. 1702, f. of a respecta. line, is kn. to me; d. 22 Dec. 1736. SAMUEL, Lynn, b. at Boston, Co. Line. 20 Nov. 1597, s. of John Whiting, the mayor of the borough, was matric. 1613 at Emanuel, the Puritan Coll. of the Univ. of Cambridge, as it was then stigmatiz. had his degrees 1616, and 1620, preach. as chaplain three yrs. in private fams. if Mather be correct, after his master's degr. and then went to Lynn Regis, Co. Norfolk, spent ano. three yrs. as collea. or curate of the rector, and being disturb. by his diocesan, rem. to Skirbeck, close to his native place. Aft. bur. his first w. by wh. he had two s. wh. d. in Eng. and one d. brot. to our country, Mather says he m. a d. of Oliver St. John, a Bedforsh. man. of fam. nearly relat. to the Lord St. John of Bletso, wh. may all be true, but the writer confuses the time very cruelly, when he should tell the date of her m. or d. by saying she "stayed with her worthy consort forty-seven yrs. went in the seventy-third yr. of his age unto him to whom her soul had been," &c. Taking the pains to extract meaning out of this gabble, by common arithmetic, we find reason to see that Mather need not be believed literally; as thus, W. was in his 73d yr. in 1669, and the union having existed 47 yrs. of course it began in 1622, wh. is rather rearly for him who had obt. his master's degree in 1620, m. one w. had three ch. and lost her. I have learn. to distrust the author of the Magnalia in all cases where he employs roundabout instead of direct phraseology, and even in this is sometimes careless. He came in the same ship with Wheelwright, who had been his neighbor in Co. Line. arr. 26 May 1636, and sett. 8 Nov. next in the ch. of Lynn, freem. 7 Dec. foll. tho. the prefix of respect is not found with his name. With him came w. s. Samuel, b. at Shirbeck, 25 Mar. 1633, H. C. 1653, but not entit. to his A. M. until 1656, and two ds. of wh. one was Dorothy, b.; by the first w. who m. 4 June 1650, Thomas Weld fo Roxbury; and the other, Elizabeth by sec. w. m. Rev. Jeremiah Hobart. At L. he prob. had John, H. C. 1657, bef. ment. and certain. Joseph, b. 1641, H. C. 1661, bef. ment. ano. s. and ano. d. [[521]] if Mather may be trust. whose names are not giv. His w. d. 3 Mar. 1677. The letter of 1 Oct. 1677 to Rev. Increase Mather, wh. he calls cousin, in Geneal. Reg. II. 198, is valua. and the s. and d. with him to wh. reference is made, where Samuel, jr. and prob. his w. But why Increase M. was call. his cousin or neph. is uncert. unless from his m. with d. of famous John Cotton, to wh. the Magn. asserts "some affinity" of W. He d. not 11 Nov. as Lynn Rec. in Geneal. Reg. V. 342 has it, but 11 Dec. 1679. In our Col. Rec. IV. 406, the liberality of governm. in giv. him 600 acres for the rights wh. his br. John, and Richard Wesland, aldermen of Boston in Eng. had assign. him, aris. from the original stock taken in the comp. bef. settlem. wh. would have given them claim to 200, is to be read. SAMUEL, Billerica, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. freem. 1656, m. 12 Nov. of that yr. at Charlestown, Dorcas, d. of Leonard Chester of Wethersfield, had Elizabeth b. 6 Oct. 1660; Samuel, 19 Dec. 1662; John, 1 July 1664, H. C. 1685, bef. ment.; Oliver, 8 Oct. 1665, bef. ment.; Mary, 28 Apr. 1667; Dorothy, 23 Aug. 1668; Joseph 7 Jan. 1670, H.

He was ord. 11 Nov. 1663, the first min. of B. tho. he had preach. there more than five yrs. bef. and he d. 28 Feb. 1713, his w. hav. d. a fortnight earlier. One of this name, perhaps a trans. stranger, d. at the ho. of capt. Thomas Lake, in Boston, 6 Sept. 1658. SAMUEL, Dedham, perhaps s. of the first Nathaniel of the same, m. 23 Nov. 1676, Sarah, d. of Thomas Metcalf of the same. SAMUEL, Billerica, s. of Rev. Samuel of the same, Farmer says, had issue, tho. he names neither w. nor ch. but adds that he d. 14 Mar. 1715. SAMUEL, Windham, s. of John of Hartford, m. at Norwich, when he was stud. in divin. 14 Sept. 1696, Elizabeth d. of Rev. William Adams of Dedham, was ord. 4 Dec. 1700, first min. of W. where he had first preach. almost eight yrs. earlier, and d. 27 Sept. 1725, on a visit to Rev. Nathaniel Collins, his br.-in-law, at Enfield. His ch. were Ann, b. 2 Jan. 1698; Samuel, 20 Feb. 1700, who was lost at sea, aged 18 yrs.; Elizabeth 11 Feb. 1702; William, 22 Jan. 1704; Joseph, 17 Feb. 1705; John, 20 Feb. 1706; Sybil, 6 May 1708; Martha, 12 Mar. 1710, d. young; Mary, 24 Nov. 1712; Eliphalet, 8 Apr. 1715; Elisha, 17 Jan. 1717; Samuel, again, 15 May 1720; and Nathan, 4 May 1724. His wid. m. 1737 Rev. Samuel Niles of Braintree, and after his d. 1 May 1762, went to her youngest ch. at New Haven, col. Nathan, and there d. 21 Dec. 1766.

Indeed we kn. not from what part of Mass. he went, but prob. from Cambridge, since other promin. persons rem. thence that yr. and he in 1637 was one of the first ho. of reps. in 1641 an Assist. and treasr. of the Col. from 1643 to his d. in 1647, when he was call. major.

Prob. conject. is that, beside Abijah and Zechariah, and Hannah, Judith, also, and Elizabeth were b. on this side of the water; but the order, in wh. names of ch. occur in a will, is not always sufficient guide to determine relative ages.

Zechariah, 2 1/2, by the Truelove from London, was at M. 1639, perhaps, or at New Haven 1643, but nothing is told of him, exc. that he was in a rul. elder. Felt, in Eccles. Hist. of N. E.

His will of 1695 does not name Increase, nor Simon, nor Jane, but to the other ch. adds John, Sarah, Deborah, and Ruth, and gr.s. Richard. Prob. his w. was d. as she is not nam.

Elizabeth had Alice, 14 Nov. 1695; at least the rec. gives such w. and ch. to one Simeon, but it may be mistake for the next. SIMON, Weymouth, s. of the first John, may, perhaps, legally claim the w. and ch. last ascrib. to Simeon, for, by his will of 1708, he names w. Elizabeth and [[526]] ch.

Ann, said to be b. a. 1621; and Mary, a. 1623; rem. a. 1641 to Stamford, and was one of the first sett. At S. he was in good repute, m. a wid. Jessup, was chos. a rep. to New Haven assemb. 1647, and murd. by Ind. in Oct. 1648. The act was not a case of private hatred, but seems to have been the deed of the whole tribe, [[527]] and the Col. of Conn. was moved to unite with that of N. H. in a just revenge. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 197. JOHN, Hartford 1646, s. perhaps of the preced. had Sarah, b. 16 Dec. 1647; rem. prob. to Stamford bef. or soon after d. of his suppos. father. JOHN, Medford, s. of Francis the first, m.

Aft. liv. many yrs. at Billerica, he rem. to Killingly, and d. 23 Jan. 1751. WHITNELL, JEREMIAH, New Haven 1639, is found in the list of freem. 1669, print. in Trumbull, II. 524, but there is giv. Whitwell, as prob. in the constable's or selectmen's certific. He m. Elizabeth wid. of Thomas Mitchell, after 1662, had no ch. and d. Mar. 1682. His will of 10 Mar. in that yr. gives all his prop. to wid. for life, and after to Philip Alcock, and his w. Elizabeth d. of the wid. WHITNEY, BENJAMIN, Watertown, youngest s. of John the first of the same, sat down first at York (but was, I think, tax. at Dover 1667 and 8), there got w. Jane, there went to sw. alleg. 1680, but at W. had Jane, b. 29 Sept. 1669; rem. prob. next yr. to Shirborn, there had Joshua, 21 Sept. 1687, but perhaps others bef. His w. d. at S. 14 Nov. 1690; and he took ano. as is thot. 11 Apr. 1695, Mary Poor, but Barry thinks her name Esther, and he is said to have liv. to 1723.

James d. young; Dorothy, bapt. 16 June 1700; Eleazer, 5 Apr. 1702; Elnathan, 6 May 1705; James, again, 6 June 1708; and Jonas perhaps older than the latter nam. but some of these dates of bapt. do not concur with those in Bond, wh. perhaps had mark. the day of b. at that of bapt. His w. d. 22 June 1731. His will, prob. 1735, nam. two other s. Isaac and Timothy, as Dr. Bond many yrs. since wrote to me, but as in his Geneal. they are omit.

Sarah, wh. may have been d. of George Woodward, but could never have been wid. of that John Eddy, ment. by Bond, had John, Isaiah, John again, Nathaniel, Sarah, Elijah, and Jonas; but Barry furnish. no dates for any of them. He d. Jan. 1712, at least, his inv. is of 10 of that mo. and his wid. in 1715, says Bond, was of Lexington. JEREMIAH, Plymouth 1643.

John, 11; Richard 9; Nathaniel, 8; Thomas, 6; and Jonathan, 1; but a slight reason may be seen for think. one of these ages too low; as in the rec. of W. the f. is call. at his d. 1 June 1673, 84 yrs. old; and Richard was releas. from train. in 1691, "being 70 yrs. of age," when he could only be 65, if the custom-ho. rep. be accept. was a man of propty. and relig. charact. adm. freem. 3 Mar. 1636, was by the Gen. Ct. made constable 1641, a selectman sev. times betw. 1638 and 55, and in 1665 he was town clk. had b. at W. Joshua, 5, but the Register's vol. for W.

Sarah, wh. was, Barry judges, d. of Shadrach Hapgood, had Sarah, b. 2 Mar. 1693; Jonathan, 27 Sept. 1694, d. young; Tabitha, 22 Aug. 1696; Shadrach, 12 Oct. 1698; Jonathan, again, 25 Nov. 1700; Ann, 22 May 1702; Amos, 1 May 1705; rem. to Sudbury, and had Zaccheus, 16 Nov. 1707; rem. again, prob. to Concord, there had Timothy, 20 Feb. 1709; and perhaps Daniel; in his will, made 14, pro. 18 Mar. 1735, nam. other ch.

JOSHUA, Groton, s of the first John, by w. Lydia had Joshua, b. 14 June 1666; and Sarah, 10 Oct. 1668; by w. Mary had no ch. and she d. 17 Mar. 1672; and he m. at Watertown, 30 Sept. foll. Abigail, prob. d. of Thomas Tarbell, had Mary, 1 July 1675, at Groton; thence driv. by the Ind. war, had at W. William, 28 Feb. 1678; and for the other ch. we must rely upon his will of 17 Apr. 1713, in wh. he calls them Cornelis, David, Martha, Elizabeth and d. Hutchins, by Bond thot. to be Abigail, w.; of John H. and d. Woods, wh. he thot. was Alice, w. of Nathaniel W. but the last is uncert. JOSIAH, Wrentham, s. of the first Jonathan, by w. Abigail, who serv. him, had Josiah, b. a. 1698; Jonathan, a. 1703; and Abigail, 1709; and he prob. d. Jan. 1718, at least his inv. is of 15th of that mo. MOSES,Sudbury, s. of the first Richard, m. 30 Sept. 1686, Sarah Knight; but Bond was able to tell no more; and Barry is equal. silent. From investigat. of T. B. Wyman, jr. it is kn. that he had Sarah, b. 2 July 1687; Moses, a. 1690; Abraham, 29 May 1692; Jonas; Jason, a. 1704; perhaps John; and certain. Lemuel, 1 Aug. 1714. His first ch. was b. in Stow.

Mercy should be add. He rem. to Weston, there d. 7 Jan. 1733, "aged a. 90 yrs." says the extravag. rec. and his wid. d. 7 May 1746, "aged a. 88 yrs.' thus robbing her of more than it had bestowed on him, as if the days of b. of ea. were not well kn. RICHARD, Watertown, sec. s. of the first John, brot. by his f. at nine yrs. old from Eng. m. 19 Mar. 1651, not, as Barry says, Mary (foll. the Co. rec.), but Martha Coldham, d. of the first Thomas of Lynn, had Sarah, b. 17 Mar. 1653; Moses, 1 Aug. 1655; Joanna, 16 Jan. 1657; Deborah, 12 Oct. 1658; Rebecca, 15 Dec. 1659, d. in two mos.; Richard, 13 Jan. 1661; Elisha, 26 Aug. 1662; and Ebenezer, 30 June 1672, was freem. 1651, rem. to that pt. of Concord call.

Elizabeth d. 24 Nov. 1723. He made his will a few days aft. and d. 5 Dec. next, and Barry says the will was [[532]] pro. 23 of the same mo. The two first nam. s. were excors. SAMUEL, Watertown, s. of the sec. John, m. 16 Feb. 1684, Mary, d. of Joseph Bemis, had Mary, b. 30 Sept. 1689; but Bond tells no more, tho. by his putt. Arabic num. 1 bef. the name of the ch. we might expect addit. STEPHEN, one of the first sett. of Huntington, L. I. THOMAS, Plymouth, had w. Winifred, wh. d. 23 July 1660, but from Col. Rec. I learn no more. THOMAS, Watertown, fourth s. of John the first of the same, brot. from Eng. at six yrs. of age, m. 11 Jan. 1655, Mary, whose surname may never be satisfactorily shown, any more than that of the w. of Theophilus Phillips, wh. in my opin. was her sis. but in opin. of a judic. reader of old rec. seems Kedell, in one place, or Keedell in ano. had Thomas, b. 24 Aug. 1656; John, 19 May 1659, d. same day; John, again, 22 Aug. 1660, d. soon; Elnathan, and Eleazer, 7 Apr. 1662; Mary, 22 Dec. 1663, d. young; Bezaleel, 16 Sept. 1665; Sarah, 23 Mar. 1667, wh. is said to have m. Charles Chadwick; Mary, 6 Aug. 1668; Isaiah, 16 Sept. 1671; and Martha, 30 Jan. 1674. Date of his d. was 20 Sept. 1719, but Bond calls him his freem. of 1690, wh. title may be well, I think, fall to THOMAS, Watertown, s. of the preced. m. 29 Jan. 1679, but Bond says, 18 Oct. 1681, Elizabeth d. of George Lawrence of the same, rem. to Stow and had Thomas, b. 17 Sept. 1681; Elizabeth 16 Feb. 1683; John, 13 May 1684; Mary, 13 Jan. 1686; Benjamin, 7 Oct. 1687; Nathan; Susanna; and Abigail; and he was liv.

His wid. d. 19 Sept. 1729, aged 76. THOMAS, came in the Elizabeth and Ann from London, 1635, aged 36, Audry, 45, perhaps his w. and Jeremy, 8; but where he sat down is not heard. THOMAS, Hingham, youngest s. of the first James of the same, m. 26 Jan. 1690, Joanna Gardner, writ. in rec. Garnett, wid. of Francis of the same, d. of Samuel May of Roxbury, had Joanna, b. 27 Jan. 1691; Jael, 12 Feb. 1693; Leah, 4 Apr. 1695; Thomas, 10 Feb. 1698; Rachel, 12 July 1700; Jonathan, 5 Mar. 1703; and Eleazer, 15 Nov. 1706, and d. 17 Sept. 1708. His wid. m. 23 Mar. 1711, Nathan Farrow. The sound of this name having its first syl. short or long, at the whim of some of the descend. who prefer. the long, easily slid into Whiting in the fourth or fifth generat. as they spread into various towns. WHITRED, WHITTEREDD. WHITTRIDGE, or WHITRIG, JOHN, Salem 1668, is prob. the same who was k. under capt. Turner, by the Ind. at the Falls fight, 19 May 1676, and perhaps left posterity. NATHANIEL, Lynn 1637. SAMUEL, a soldier of Lothrop's comp. k. at Bloody Brook with the flower of Essex, 18 Sept. 1675. THOMAS, Ipswich 1648, s. of William, brot. by him. from Eng. had w. Florence, of whose d. 1672, a most doleful report may be seen in the diary of Rev. William Adams, pr. in 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 17. He had a s. 13 yrs. old at that time. By sec. w. Charity, he had Rebecca, b. 27 May 1689, wh. m. 11 Jan. 1711, the sec. William Cleaves of Beverly. WILLIAM, Ipswich 1637, perhaps br. of Nathaniel, had come in the Elizabeth 1635, aged 36, with w. Elizabeth 30, and s.Thomas, 10, and was of Beninden, Co. Kent. Late in life he m. a. 1663, Susanna, wid of Anthony Colby, and d. 9 Dec. 1668, his inv. showing est. one third less than debts. WHITTEMORE, WITAMORE or WHITAMORE, BENJAMIN, Malden, s. of Thomas, by w. Elizabeth d. of William Buckman, had Benjamin, b. Jan. 1668, d. in few wks.; Elizabeth Apr. 1669; Benjamin, again, 2 Nov. 1670, d. at 6 yrs and prob. others, as Benjamin, again, the inscript. on whose gr.-st. says he d. 6 Oct. 1703, aged 23; and d. 16 July 1726, in 87th yr. and his wid. d. in two days in her 83d yr.

DANIEL, Watertown, s. of Thomas, b. perhaps in Eng. m. 7 Mar. 1662, Mary, d. of [[534]] Richard Mellen, as seems prob. had Daniel, b. 27 Apr. 1663; John, 12 Feb. 1665; Thomas, 5 Mar. 1667; Mary, 12 Feb. 1669; and Nathaniel, 7 Feb. 1670, beside others; of Pelatiah, 1683, was youngest. His w. d. 11 May 1683, but the date of his own d. is unkn. and he had bef. 1678, rem. to Malden. The will names two oldest ch. and refers to seven others. DANIEL, Malden, s. of the preced. m. Lydia Bassett of Bridgewater, had Daniel, b. 28 Feb. 1690; Lydia, 24 Jan. 1692; Joseph, 13 Mar. 1694; Mary, 26 Mar. 1696; Richard, 14 Mar. 1698; Elizabeth 28 Jan. 1701; Jonathan, 11 Apr. 1705; Hannah, 18 Mar. 1707; William, Jan. 1709; and Sarah; and he d. 21 Sept. 1756. His will of 8 Feb. 1743 names all the ch. but Joseph, prob. d. DANIEL, Malden, s. of the first John, had William, b. 1709, as is said; but it is not kn. that he was m. JOHN, Charlestown, s. of Thomas of the same, b. prob. in Eng. one of the tythingm. 1678, m. Mary, d. of deac. John Upham of Malden, had John; Thomas, b. 1 Sept. 1664; Joseph, 29 Jan. 1666; Benjamin, 1 Sept. 1669; all bapt. 1671, in right of the mo. wh. join. the ch. five wks. bef.; Nathaniel, 9 Mar. bapt. 13 Apr. 1673; Joel, b. and d. 27 Apr. 1676; and Joel, again, 15 June, bapt. 8 July 1677. His w. d. twelve days after, and he m. 8 Nov. foll. Mary, d. of Rev. John Miller, had Mary, b. 24 Oct. 1678; Pelatiah, 7 May, bapt. 27 June 1680; Amos, 25 July, bapt. 2 Oct. 1681; Elizabeth 26 Sept. bapt. 11 Nov. 1683; Daniel, 28 Dec. 1685, d. at 3 mos.; Rebecca, 3 Mar. bapt. 17 Apr. 1687; Hannah, 10 Feb. 1689; prob. rem. to Watertown, and his 15th ch. was Daniel, again, 7, bapt. 17 May 1691. Of his own d. the date 8 Dec. 1694 is told, but his wid. d. 28 Jan. 1732, aged 78. JOHN, Charlestown, s. of the preced. perhaps, at least, is call junr. m. 26 May 1684, Elizabeth Annable, and had John, b. next Feb. 23; Jonathan, 15 Mar. 1690, d. soon; Richard, 20 Mar. 1692; Joseph, 13 Feb. 1694; Sarah, 25 Mar. 1695; Experience, 12 Apr. 1696; Thomas, Apr. 1697; Experience, again, 20 May 1698; Jonathan, again, 23 May 1699; Abigail, 15 Aug. 1700; Ann, 21 July 1701; and Josiah, 28 Aug. 1702. Yet of these ch. few of wh. grew up to adult yrs. all but one, I suppose, may be by w. Sarah, but he d. 6 Apr. 1702. JOSEPH, Malden, br. of the preced. m. 30 Mar. 1687, Joanna Mousall, d. prob. of John of Woburn, had Joseph, b. 22 Feb. 1689; Joanna, 27 Oct. 1691; Jabez, 20 Jan. 1695; Susanna, 11 Apr. 1697; Huldah, June 1699; and Abiel, 6 Aug. 1701. He had for sec. w. Susanna Frost, and d. 1741. LAWRENCE, Roxbury, came 1635, emb. Apr. in the Hopewell, capt. Bundock, at London, aged 63, wiht w. Elizabeth 57, was adm. freem. 18 Apr. 1637. His w. d 13 Feb. 1643, "of an apoplexy wh. she had more than two yrs. bef." says the ch. rec. wh. next yr. on 18 Nov. ins. him under the same descript. "an ancient Christian of 80 yrs. of age." and the town rec. borrows the statem. that will bear six or seven yrs. [[535]] subtract. They were of Stanstead Abbey in Co. Herts, had prop. suffic. and no ch. so that he gave all his est. to the free sch. all generat. foll. of R. bless his name therefor. NATHANIEL, Malden, s. of Thomas, b. prob. in Eng. m. a. d. it is said, of deac. John Upham, tho. I doubt, as the name is giv. Mary, who was w. of his br. John; yet by w. Mary had Mary, b. 26 Apr 1668; Nathaniel, 26 Sept. 1670; and Rebecca; d. at 35 yrs. and by his will of 22 Oct. 1671, pro. 19 Dec. foll. made w. extrix. She m. 3 May 1673, John Mirable. NATHANIEL, Malden, s. of the first John, had Elizabeth b. 24 Aug. 1696. PELATIAH, Malden, s. of the first John, m. 14 Nov. 1706, Margery, d. of William Pepperell of Kittery, sis. of Sir William, had Pelatiah, b. 20 Jan. 1708; William, 10 Mar. 1710; Mary, 2 Nov. 1712; Margery, d. soon; and Joel, 15 Dec. 1716; and d. 21 Oct. 1724, lost near the Isle of Shoals. All the four surv. ch. are nam. in the will of the conqueror of Louisburg. SAMUEL, Charlestown, s. of Thomas the first, by w. Hannah had Samuel, b. 24 Dec. 1672, d. at 20 yrs.; Hannah, 16 Dec. 1676; Elizabeth 17 June 1679; Sarah, 16 Jan. 1682; and Mary, 9 Sept. 1684; all bapt. 5 June 1687, with the mo. also, than aged 30 yrs.; Abigail, 31 Jan. bapt. 8 Apr. foll.; Susanna, 17 Oct. bapt. 10 Dec. 1693; and d. 15 Sept. 1726, aged a. 75 yrs. and his wid. d. May 1728, aged a. 76, as Harris (Cambridge) Epit. teaches. THOMAS, Charlestown, d. 25 May 1661, hav. made his will 8 Feb. preced. in wh. he names w. Hannah, eldest s. Thomas, then in Eng. if alive. Daniel, b. 31 July 1633; Nathaniel, bapt. 1 May 1636; John, 11 Feb. 1638; and Elizabeth perhaps b. in our country, 1641; beside five other minor ch. Benjamin, 1643; Thomas, 1645; Samuel, 1647; Pelatiah, 1650; and Abraham, 1655 or 6. Why he call, two s. Thomas might, by conject. he explain, as if the last five were b. by the sec. w. sure. and the first five were by w. Sarah, wh. d. in Eng. and for the boys the opinion would answer better than for the d. Yet perhaps few, if any of the ten, were b. in this country; at least, he is not found among inhabs. of C. in 1658; tho. he may have liv. in some other town of Mass. at that day, as he did few yrs. bef. at Reading. Two ws. were nam. Sarah, and to the third, Hannah, bef. embarc. four ch. are assign. by tradit. wh. says, that six were b. on our side of the sea. The wid. m. 3 June 1663, Benjamin Butterfield of Chelmsford. THOMAS, Woburn, perhaps s. of the preced. m. 9 Nov. 1666, Elizabeth Pierce, d. prob. of Thomas, of the same, had Joseph, b. 14 Aug. 1667; and d. I think, in Mar. 1670, for 5 Apr. of that yr. his w.

WHITTIER, or WHITYEARE, ABRAHAM, Manchaster, had Edward and John by first w. and others Isaac and Abraham by a sec. w. as in his will of 6 Aug. 1674, nuncup. in his last sickn. is seen, Essex Inst. II. 128. Edward had admin. but d. too soon aft. to permit him to act. [[536]] JOHN, Newbury, perhaps s. of Thomas of the same, d. says Coffin, 20 Feb. 1699. The Prob. rec. supplies us with inv. of ano. JOHN, perhaps of Beverly, s. of Abraham, wh. d. 29 Dec. 1681, leav. no w. or ch. but the admor. was order. June 1682, to pay his minor brs.

NATHANIEL, Salisbury, prob. s. of Thomas, took o. of alleg. 28 Nov. 1677, m. 26 Aug. 1685, Mary Osgood, perhaps d. of John of Salisbury, had Reuben, b 17 Mar. 1686, Ruth, 14 Oct. 1688; and I presume he is the man who m. June 1710, wid. Mary Ring. THOMAS, Newbury, is, in my opin. that passeng. in the Confidence from Southampton, 1638, call. serv. of John Rolfe, and by Henry, br. of John R. in his will nam. as "kinsman." tho. in Geneal. Reg. V. 440, and XIV. 335, his name is giv. Whittle, was some time at Salisbury, there by w. Ruth had Mary, b. 9 Oct. 1647; John, 23 Dec. 1649; soon after rem. to Haverhill, had Ruth, 6 Nov. 1651; Thomas, 12 Jan. 1654; Richard, 27 June 1663; and Joseph, 8 May 1669; was freem. 1666, and d. 28 Nov. 1696. Thomas, Coffin says, d. at sea, 20 Feb. 1679. Mary m. 21 Sept. 1666, Benjamin Page; and Ruth m. 20 Apr. 1675, Joseph True. A descend. in our day, the poet of Haverhill, has "warbled his native woodnotes wild," with success equal. by very few of our bards. Sometimes it is seen Whitheire or Whitheare. WHITTINGHAM, JOHN, Ipswich 1637, ar. co. 1638, posthum. s. of Baruch, and gr.s. of William, the disting. reform. in the Eng. ch. exil. for his faith in the days of Mary, and reward. in the foll. reign with deanery of Durham, was from Southerton, near Boston, Co.

Strange looseness in the fam. story, of the Boston Weekly Journal of Jan. 1730, is read in Geneal. Reg. XI. 26 (tho. unnotic. by the Ed.), would lead us to believe, that his mo.

In the artifices for support of the spurious deed of the large part of N. H. 17 May 1629, Wiggin's name is used with Walter Neale's in a forged letter of 13 Aug. 1633, print. in Belkn. N. H. Vol. I. of first Ed. in Appendix 6, with the valua. letter of Cotton Mather, in aid of the cause, whether with his eyes open, or only winking, may be disput. The docum. is self-destruct. inasmuch as Wiggin was agent of the party in Eng. oppos. in interest to Mason, whose agent was Neal, but far more open to object. by one inquir. only after the truth, as purport. to be writ. by them at Dover, call.

In his will made six days bef. that let. he names only ch.

Aquedneck or Rhode Island, he form. a corpo. by solemn compact, 7 Mar. 1638, and was held in high esteem there many yrs. so that tho. he had rem. to Tauton, his name as sen. and Samuel jr. was ea. retain. on the list of freem. 1655. He had wisdom eno. to hold on by his est. at Portsmouth, on R. I. as Taunton, and at Boston, to wh. place the came again to live bef. mak. his will 30 Apr. 1656, pro. 6 Nov. foll. See Geneal. Reg.

Reg.

Whether the Dunbar invoice contain the names of as many young men as the Worcester, or more, or less, is unkn. but it is an object of high interest to find that one, out of a hundred, outliv. by four or five yrs. their cruel banishment and servitude. SAMUEL, Portsmouth, R. I. or Newport, eldest s. of the preced. m. a d. of John Porter, is nam. as one of the patentees of the royal charter of 1663; in his will of 1678, are nam.

William); and Francis Gisborne, to ea. of wh. he devis. lds. and the residue to his w. Hannah, perhaps d. of the first John Porter. SHADRACH, Taunton, younger br. of the preced. gain. all the lds. in T. that had been his f's. acc. his will, was more than 35 yrs. town clk. of T. oppos. the governm. of Sir.

Yet, in ano. part, ano. meaning may belong to the phrase, when he alludes to "sister's childr. in O. Eng. wh. were the ch. of sis. Christian Boyden."

Who was his first w. or whether by her he had any ch. beside John, b. Mar. 1657, is not ascert. Patience m. 4 Oct. 1681, Ebenezer Blakeman; and Elizabeth m. 1688, Barnabas Beers.

TIMOTHY, Concord, rem. to Stratford 1639, says Farmer MS. quot. Trumbull, I. 109, as authty. for his being one of the first sett. But I presume that is a mistake for William, whose s. Timothy, a very small ch. certain. even if not unb. at that time, wh. is on the list of freem. 1669, m. 28 Dec. 1664, Joanna, d. of John Birdseye, had Joanna, b. 1667; Phebe, 1669; Sarah, 1671; Elizabeth 1673; and Rebecca, 1680. * WILLIAM, the freem. in Mass. of 7 Dec. 1636, came in the Planter from London, in the ship's clearance call. linen weaver, aged 34, with w. Margaret, 24, and s. John, 2, but at what town he first sat down, is not cert. We can be sure it was not Boston, nor Salem, nor Charlestown, nor Dorchester, nor Roxbury, nor Watertown, and of the few others Concord seems most likely. To what part of Conn. he first rem,. is unkn. or at what time; but he is seen in 1647, as rep. at Hartford, and prob. in a high degree is it, that he had more s. and ds. Joseph, Samuel, Obadiah, Timothy, Elizabeth wh. m. at Windsor 16 Apr. 1663, Henry Stiles; and Hannah, wh. m. also at W. 17 Mar. 1665, Daniel Hayden; Sarah, wh. m. 1665, John Meigs; and Phebe, m. 11 Dec. 1669, John Birdseye, jr. of Stratford, so that it is not improb. that he had chos.

I suppose he must have had some acquaint. in Eng. with milit. duty, for he was made lieut. here so early as 1637, capt. 1646, and maj. the highest rank at that time, in 1655; and was rep. 1636-49, chos.

[[557]] THOMAS, Plymouth, was in his youth assoc. with the Leyden congregat. 1629, and came over, as I judge, in the Lion, 1632, emb. in June. See 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 94, where the official docum. makes his name Tobie W. But in comp. with Ashley he had come in the spring or 1630, and prob. was sent home on tempora. confidential business by his employer. That he was s. of Andrew, a D. D. of some celebr. with the Puritans, wh. d. Dec. 1621, is suggest. to me by Mr. Thornton. See BradfordÕs Hist. p. 259-60.

He was entrust. with command at the trad.-ho. of the Plymouth people at Kennebeck, 1639, and Winthrop in Hist. I. 322, tells a pleasant incident of his peaceful control of the Ind. He had been forcibly dispossess. some three or four yrs. bef. of the establishm. at Penobscot. by D'Aulney, the French lieut.-gov. of Acadia. See, in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VII. 92 and 94, the relations of the affair by the rival French officers, D'Aulney and La Tour. He was an Assist. 1651 to 1664, and when the Eng. conq. N. Y. he accomp. them, and was made mayor. Not long aft. however, he went back to his first friends, took sec. w. 1 Sept. 1671, Joanna, wid. of Rev. Peter Prudden, resid. at Rehoboth, and Swanzey, d. at the latter 3, the gr.-st. says 4 Aug. 1674. The inscript. on the gr.st. of the wid. (HIS ONLY W.) says she d. 8 Jan. 1699, a. the 65th yr. of her age, wh. proves how errors may be found in such places, as she could only be 5 yrs. old when her first ch. by Prudden was b. Prob. the yr. of d. was 18 yrs. earlier. See Prudden. What could explain the error of her gr.st. that she was the only w. is difficult to conject. Commonly we look to such muniments of history for a different sort of failures in truth. Perhaps only was error for sec. The brief mem. in Geneal. Reg.

Caulkins suppos. that "he and his w. had pass. the bds.of mid. age, and that all their ch. were b. bef." But this may be too large; at least we presume that Mary or Abraham, or both, and perhaps John (tho. he is said to have work. 1651, in build. the milldam, where he seems to be mistak. for his f.) were b. after the rem. He was selectman 1647, is seen on the freemen's list 1669; m. a. 1671, Ann, wid. who had been, Caulkins thinks, third w. but in my opin. only sec. of Andrew Lester, as I much distrust the exist. of any d.

Sept. 1674, Martha, d. of Richard Hall, was freem. 1683, d. 8 Feb. 1718, aged 69, says the gr.-st. EBENEZER, Stonington, s. of Samuel the first, m. 24 Jan. 1687, or 8, or S. Mary, d. of Isaac Wheeler of the same, had Theoda, b. 2 Oct. foll. d. young; a ch. 17 Sept. 1691, d. in few days; Mary, 7 Jan. 1694; Samuel, 3 Feb. 1696; Theoda, again, 3 Jan. 1701; Selina, 18 Dec. 1703; Elizabeth and Ebenezer, tw. 21 Oct. 1705; and Martha, 3 Apr. 1708. His w. d. 3 Jan. foll and he m. 12 July 1711, Sarah Hammond, had two ch. that d. without names; Nathan, 24 July 1715; and Elisha, 12 Jan. 1719; and d. 13 Feb. 1747. His wid. d. 5 Sept. 1751. EDWARD, Scituate 1643. ELEAZER, Salem 1635, join the ch. 6 Aug. 1637; had w. Elizabeth and d. Elizabeth bapt. 6 Apr. 1663, perhaps aft. d. of f. FRANCIS, Portsmouth, sent over by Gorges and Mason, the patentees, 1631, and when their Gov. Neal went home, they made W. the successor. He seems to have act. with discret. and when Mass. acquir. the rule of the country he had authty. with Bradstreet [[560]] and others to hold judicial power at Dover, as in our first vol. of Rec. is seen. He was, however, atttract. to Barbadoes a. 1645. FRANCIS, Boston, by w. Mary had Francis, b. 12 Oct. 1686. FREEBORN, Providence, eldest s. of famous Roger, m. a Hart of Newport, of whose bapt. name or her f's I kn. nothing, had Mary, b. a. 1663, wh. m. Gov. Samuel Cranston. His wid. m. Gov.

John; Mary; and Sarah; was made an offic. of the custom-ho. in the Col. admin. 1654, and d. in the same yr. From his will of 23 Sept. 1654, of wh. w. Mary and s,. John were excors. pro. Nov. foll. is seen, that Mary had double portion "in respect of her infirmity." His wid. Mary d. the same yr. her will of 1 Oct. ws pro. next mo. Mary m. Richard Bishop, and she and two ch. are rememb. in will of her f. GREGORY, Isle of Shoals, was constable 1674, says Farmer's MS. GRIFFIN, Boston, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 2 Jan. 1686. HENRY, Scarborough 1651, was one of the three betrust. by Rigby, the patentee of a large province, as Assist. and selectman 1652 and 69, was wound. 10 Oct. 1676 at Saco. Of HENRY, wh. was in 1683, at Derby, and d. 1687, I find not that he had fam. and for CHARLES of the same, I kn. nothing but as bef. said, and that in 1686, he was one of the petitnrs. for gr. of the town of Preston. HUGH, Boston, hatter, call. also "a single man," when he join. our ch. 1 Jan. 1642; freem. 18 May foll. was prob. never m. at least his will of 21 Oct. 1674, ment. no w. or ch. but gives one third of his est. to ch. of br. Hilton of Charlestown, and two thirds to his sis. Mary Hale and her childr. On 12 Nov. foll. when the excors. friend John, and sis. Hale renounce their trust, he is call. late of Block Isl. wh. leads me to imagine him to be the one against wh. Caulkins, Hist. of New London 248, says action for defamat. of his w. was 1665, brot. by Thomas Beeby. * ISAAC, Newton, s. of Robert of Roxbury, was lieut. freem. 1685, by w. Martha, d. of deac. William Parke of Roxbury, had Isaac, wh. d. 7 Mar. 1661, very young; Isaac, again, b. 11 Dec. 1661, bapt. 16 Mar. foll.; Martha, 27 Dec. 1663; William, 2 Feb. 1665, H. C. 1683, min. of Hatfield, ancest. of along line of disting. clerg.; John, 31 Oct. 1667, in wh. date the error of Fam. Geneal. is correct, by Jackson; Eleazer, 22 Oct. 1669; Hannah, 8 Oct. 1671; Elizabeth; the two last being lost from Fam. Geneal.; and Thomas, 23 Dec. not as that book tells, Oct. 1673. By sec. w. Judith Cooper, m. at Taunton, 13 Nov. 1677, had Peter, 31 Aug. 1680; Mary; Sarah, 2 Oct. 1688; Ephraim, 21 Oct. 1691; was rep. 1692, and aft. oft. but in favor of this last ch. by influence of the mo. the f. wh. d. 11 Feb. 1707, had made in 1704, [[561]] an improp. convey. confirm. by his last will, wh. was set aside. His wid. d. 1724. ISAAC, Salem, cordwain. by w. Margery had Elizabeth b. 23 Aug. 1660; Isaac, 20 Dec. 1662; Benjamin, 18 Mar. 1664; and Sarah and Ebenezer of date not kn. but all ex. Benjamin nam. in the will of wid. 1702. Elizabeth m. 1 Apr. 1678, Joseph Mansfield; and Sarah m. a Lander. Ebenezer's w. is nam. in the will of his mo. but nothing of him or her has reach. me. JAMES, a preacher at Plymouth, of wh. resid. that must have been short, no acco. is found. JAMES, Hartford, serv. of Nathaniel Sanford, at first, m. 1691, Sarah, d. of Thomas Richardson of Farmington, had James, bapt. 1693; Hepzibah, 1696; Sarah, 1699; Samuel, 1700; Abigail, 1707; and Daniel, 1710. He rem. to Wallingford, but date of his d. is unkn. JENKIN, Scarborough 1673. JOHN, Boston, ship carpenter, lately come to this country, was hang. for murder, 28 Sept. 1637. JOHN, by Farmer seen at Piscataqua 1631, of wh. is no more told. JOHN, Scituate 1643, had prob. been some yrs. in the Col. as Deane thot. he came with Hatherly in 1632, brot. s. John, Edward, and d. Ann, perhaps also, younger d. Mary, and w. Ann. By his will of 10 Dec. 1667, he names these, and permits us to infer, in connex, with collat. knowledge, that Anthony Dodson, wh. m. 1652, Mary, was then d. that Ann had been 1632, w. of John Barker, was then w. of John Pratt, and that she, by the former h. had Deborah, then w. of William Burden, and John, Abraham, and Mary Barker. JOHN, Newbury, had (perhaps by two ws.) Sarah; John; Mary, b. 20 Sept. 1641; and Lydia, 15 Mar. 1643; prob. rem. to Haverhill; had there b. Joseph, 18 Apr. 1647; Sarah, m. 5 May 1646, John Ayer. His sec. w. was Jane, and his will of 9 Dec. 1670, was pro. 18 Mar. 1674. JOHN, Windsor 1639, m. 29 June 1644, Mary Burkly, if we follow Parsons in his spelling, Geneal. Reg. V. 364; but a more practised eye reads the name Brelly, Bralley, or Burlly, perhaps the same as Burleigh in our times; and we gain no light from the early dwellers at W. had John, b. 26 Mar. 1646; Nathaniel, 25 Oct. 1647; Rebecca, 20 Apr. 1649; Hannah, 13 Apr. 1651; Mary and Elizabeth tw. 5 Jan. 1653; Abiel, 2 Sept. 1655; and Abigail, 31 May 1658; and he d. 1665. Of the five ds. we kn. that Rebecca m. 1670, Obadiah Cooley of Springfield; Hannah m. 1677, Nathaniel Bancroft of Westfield; Mary m. 1678, John Gunn; Elizabeth d. in few wks.; and Abigail m. 1681, Edward Griswold; Abiel may have d. unm. JOHN, Salem, by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 29 May 1664; Henry, 29 June 1666; George, 2 July 1668, d. in few days; Mary, 25 Aug. 1669; George, again, 2 Mar. 1671; and Ruth, 4 Aug. 1674. His will of 22 Oct. 1696, pro. 15 Feb. foll. names w. Elizabeth (perhaps not the mo. of the ch.); John; Elizabeth w. of Thomas Marston; Mary; Ruth, w. of Abraham Purchase; and Sarah, [[562]] d. of his s. Joseph. In 1690, he was aged 70, with w. ten yrs. older, says Felt. JOHN, Boston, butcher, may be the testator, of whose will, Dec. 1684, pro. 26 Mar. foll. speak. of two ds. Hannah (wh. was b. 27 Apr. 1661), and Sarah, wh. were m. to wh. only 5s. ea. is the beq. gives all est. to w. Mary to bring up two younger ch. Rachel and Martha. It may be read in Vol. VI. 492; but no other informat. is gain. of him, exc. that in 1673, he receives deeds of two est. in B. JOHN, Roxbury, s. of Robert of the same, b. prob. in Eng. and no doubt eldest, d. 6 Oct. 1658, as is seen at the Prob. off. when admin. was giv. to his f. nine days aft. It is observ. that neither ch. nor town rec. ment. him. nor did the Fam. Genealogist, nor Ellis, the histor. of the place, express any knowl. of ever hear. of such a man. By the ch. rec. I find his d. (unless, wh. is not wholly unreasonabl. the name be mistak. by the abbrev. for that of his f. Robert) Elizabeth in full commun. bef. the d. of her f. but wh. was her mo. is unkn. JOHN, Scituate 1643, fit to bear arms, prob. s. of John of the same, was a capt. d. 22 June 1694, aged 70. He serv. in Philip's war, and had command of a comp. when the great Ind. sachem was k. His est. was good, but his will of 1691, names no w. nor ch. and to his relatives, serv. and friends, gives freely. JOHN, Boston, s. of the first Nathaniel of the same, m. 1670. Ann, eldest d. of Dr. John Alcock of Roxbury, as in the m. contr. of rec. Vol. VI. 241, may be read; rem. to Newport, but first had at B. Mary; Ann; Palsgrave; Nathaniel; and Arabella, as from hs will of 18 Apr. 1687 is found, in wh. provis. is made for them, and ano. ch. expected. That instr. was pro. 22 June 1688, before Francis Brinley, Esq. wh. had by Andros, been constit. judge for that portion of his dominions; but it was requir. to be rec. here in Boston, as in Vol. X. 329 appears. It refers to br. Nathaniel, br.-in-laws, Zechariah Whitman, and made excors. w. with s. Nathaniel when he should come of age. JOHN, Windsor, s. of John of the same, was in the list of freem. 1669, m. 8 Aug. 1672, Bethia, d. of Thomas Parsons, wid. of Thomas Mascall of the same, had Francis, b. 25 May 1673; and John and Ebenezer, tw. 7 Jan. 1676. His w. d. 1681, and he m. 1686, wid. Esther Egglestone; but it is unkn. whether he had more ch. JOHN, Boston 1670, styles hims. of Camberwell, Co. Surrey, late of London, merch. in B. but to appropr. to ea. John severally, the births for the first sixty or seventy yrs. on Boston rec. when the designat. of the parents, is barely, John and Ann, John and Elizabeth John and Jane, John and Mary, thro. various generat. must be undertak. with high presumpt. and would be abandon. with utter despair. Oft. one John is blessed with a ch. b. in few wks. after ano. John had obtain. the similar favor. JOHN, Haverhill, s. prob. of John of the same, m. 9 Sept. 1661, Rebecca, d. of Anthony Colby of [[563]] Salisbury, had Sarah, b. 27 June 1662; Mary, 24 Nov. 1663; a d. prob. Rebecca, May 1666; a d. 1 Aug. 1668, d. in few days; Mercy, 4 Dec. 1669; Susanna, 11 Apr. 1672. His w. d. 10 June foll. and he m. 5 May 1675, Esther, wid. of John Bond of H. He took o. of fidel. 28 Nov. 1677, at the same time with his br. Joesph; and he d. 30 Apr. 1698, leav. wid. Esther. See Geneal. Reg. XII. 297. JOHN, Salem, s. perhaps of John of the same, m. 8 Dec. 1686, Sarah Manning, d. prob. of Richard of Ipswich, had Sarah, b. 18 Aug. 1689. Other ch. he had, perhaps by ano. w. to wit, Anstis, 25 Dec. 1700; John, 14 Nov. 1702; Henry, 2 Feb. 1705; Mary, 8 May 1706; George, 14 Mar. 1708; and Richard, 27 Aug. 1710. JOHN, New London, is seen, by Miss Caulkins, liv. on Groton side, and m. a. 1686, Jane, wid. of Hugh Hubbard, d. of Carey Latham; but even her diligence could learn no more exc. that he d. 3 Dec. 1741, at gr. age, as was his w. and left only s. Peter. JOHN, Deerfield, s. of deac. Samuel of Roxbury, began soon after leav. coll. to fit for the pulpit, and m. 21 July 1687, Eunice, d. of Rev. Eleazer Mather of Northampton, and had Eleazer, b. 1 July 1688, H. C. 1708, and if we follow the very doubtful Fam. Geneal. even an earlier s. Eliakim, who d. young; preach. first at D. 1686, but was not ord. bef. 18 Oct. 1688; had also, Samuel, 4 Jan. 1690, d. at 23 yrs.; Esther, 10 Apr. 1691; Stephen, 14 May 1693, H. C. 1713; Eunice, 16 Sep[. 1696; Warham, 7, bapt. perhaps 16 Sept. 1699; Eliakim, again; John, 15 Jan. 1704, k. by the Ind. on 29 of next mo. as was his young br. Eliakim; and all the rest of the fam. exc. Eleazer, were tak. towards Canada, but his w. d. of suffering on the road. He m. aft. resettlem. of D. Abigail Allen of Windsor, had Abigail, 1708; John, 23 Nov. 1709, d. young; Eliakim, again, 6 Feb. 1711; Elijah, 13 Nov. 1712; and Sarah, Sept. 1716; and he d. 12 June 1729. The story of his Redeemed Captive has been very much read, in all succeed. times, and the ch. Stephen publ. also, a very agreeable narrat. JOSEPH, Taunton, s. of Richard of the same, m. 28 Nov. 1667, Elizabeth d. of George Watson of Plymouth, had Elizabeth b. 30 July 1669, drown, at 19 yrs.; Richard, 26 Nov. 1671, d. under 17 yrs.; Mehitable, 7 June 1676; Joseph, 13 Feb. 1679; Benjamin, 15 Oct. 1681; Ebnezer, 21 Apr. 1685; Phebe, 25 Sept. 1687; and Richard, 26 Mar. 1689; and d. 17 Aug. 1692. JOSEPH, Salem, s. perhaps youngest, of George of the same, m. 20 Nov. 1661, Sarah, d. of Thomas Browning; had Mary b. 19 Aug. 1662, d. soon; Joseph, Aug. 1663, d. in few mos.; Joseph, again, 17 Mar. 1665; Sarah, 28 Oct. 1666; George, 22 Feb. 1670; Daniel, 3 Jan. 1672; Benjamin and Abigail, tw. 7 Dec. 1673; and David, 7 Sept. 1676. He d. 1682, at least his wid. returns inv. on 27 June of that yr. JOSEPH, Boston, by w. Lydia [[564]] had Joseph, b. 14 Feb. 1670; William, 13 Dec. 1671; Richard, 8 Feb. 1673, tho. rec. would make the mo. to be Elizabeth wh. is, in my opin. a clerical blunder, as the foll. seven ch. are all count. for Lydia; that is to say, Hannah, 20 May 1674; Daniel, 25 Dec. 1676; Hannah, again, 26 May 1679; Jeremiah, 22 Aug. 1683; Elizabeth 22 Aug. 1686; Elizabeth again, 9 Dec. 1688; and Mary, 6 Nov. 1689. JOSEPH, Providence, youngests s. of famous Roger, wh. gives, in let. of Feb. 1660 to his frd. Gov. Winthrop account of the youth's cure of epilepsy by taking tobacco, and the cure did not shorten his days. [See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 28.] He m. 17 Dec. 1669, Lydia, youngest d. of Thomas Olney the first, had Joseph, b. 26 Sept. 1670, d. soon; Thomas, 16 Feb. 1672; Joseph, again, 10 Nov. 1673; Mary, June 1676; James, 24 Sept. 1680; and Lydia, 26 Apr. 1683; and d. 17 Aug. 1724 at Cranston, where the gr.st. is encumb. with more doleful verse than is often seen. His wid. d. three wks. aft. He engag. alleg. to Charles II. 31 May 1666; was an Assist. 1704, and on 28 Sept. of that yr. verif. the declarat. made by his f. in 1682. JOSEPH, Haverhill, youngest s. of the first John of the same, took o. of alleg. 1677, m. 18 Nov. 1674, Mary Fuller of Barnstable, d. of the first Samuel, had Sarah, b. 17 Nov. 1675, Mary, 29 Nov. 1677; John, 17 Feb. 1680; Hannah, 30 Sept. 1683; but no more is told of him. MATTHEW, Wethersfield, by w. Susannah had Amos, b. 1645; Matthew, 1647, d. soon; Matthew, again, 1651; and Samuel, 1653. Of him the Col. Rec. of Trumbull tells no good, but that he seems to be d. in 1664. MATTHEW, Dover, tax there 1657-1668, was perhaps br. of the first William of the same. NATHANIEL, Boston, glover, as he grew to be, but call. laborer, on adm. to the ch. 26 May 1639, freem. 13 May foll. by w. Mary had Ruth, bapt. 2 June 1639, a yr. old; Elizabeth 18 Oct. 1640, tho. town rec. says b. 21; Nathaniel, 25 Sept. 1642, "a. six days old;" John, 18 Aug. 1644. "a. three days old;" Mary, b. 30 Nov. 1646, and when bapt. 6 Dec. foll. is call. "a. a day old;" and Hannah, bapt. 7 Jan. 1649. "a. nine days old." He was held in good esteem, had fair est. and d. 1661. His will was of 22 Apr. and his inv. of 7 May in that yr. His wid. m. Peter Brackett of Braintree, d. Ruth m. Joseph Belknap of Boston, and Mary m. John Viall, jr. of Braintree. NATHANIEL, Taunton, s. of Richard of the same, m. 17 Nov. 1668, Elizabeth d. of John Rogers of Marshfield or Duxbury, had John, b. 27 Aug. 1675; Nathaniel, 9 Apr. 1679; and Elizabeth 18 Apr. 1686. NATHANIEL, Boston, s. of Nathaniel of the same, was much engag. in Philip's war, as a commissa. in 1676, by w. Mary, had Nathaniel, b. Aug. 1675, H. C. 1693, by the careful Mr. Whitmore thot. to be successor of Famous Master Cheever in the Boston sch.; Elizabeth 28 Feb. 1678, d. soon; Oliver, 21 Aug. 1679; Elizabeth again, 22 Jan. 1682; James, [[565]] 3 Mar. 1687; and Sarah, 30 Sept. 1692; freem. 1676; and had gr. of ld. in 1679. NATHANIEL, Windsor, s. of the first John of the same, m. 3 Oct. 1681, Mary, d. of John Owen of the same, had Mary, b. 1682; rem. to Westfield, there had Abiel, 23 Mar. 1684; Rebecca, 27 Sept. 1685; Elizabeth 1687; John, 3 Nov. 1689, d. next yr.; Nathaniel, 25 Aug. 1691; Abigail, 1693; Hannah; Keziah, 1701; Naomi, 1703; Orpha, 1706; and John, again; and d. 1711. His wid. with two s. and nine ds. enjoy. his est. 1714, and she d. 1750. NICHOLAS, Roxbury, freem. 1652, but he is not nam. by Ellis, nor can I find any acco. of him, exc. that Robert in his will calls him br. and beq. to him 30s. a yr. charg. upon the est. therein giv. to his eldest s. Samuel. OWEN, Newport, among the freem. 1655, rem. in few yrs. to Norwich, there d. 1682; and, it is said, that descend. are in Preston, wh. was pt. of N. PARK, Lebanon, youngest s. of deac. Samuel of Roxbury, by w. Priscilla had Bathsheba, b. at Roxbury, 28 Aug. 1701 (unkn. to the compiler of the fam. geneal.), Samuel, John, Ebenezer, Eleazer, William, Theoda, Sarah, Elizabeth and Martha; but the print. vol. gives no date to either s. or d. yet tells that his w. d. in 1742, aged 71, and he only ten yrs. older in 1751. Roxbury rec. gives John, b. 6 June 1706. RICAHRD, Saco, d. in Oct. 1636, engag. with Gov. Cradock, as "a clapboard cleaver," may be the same who had been fined for drunk. in Mass. Mar. 1634, tho. the same Vol. I. of our Col. Rec. shows the fine was remit. perhaps bec. it could not be collect. four yrs. after. * RICHARD, Taunton 1637, went from Salem, whither Baylies I. 284, suppose. he came, bec. his w. Frances Dighton was sis. of the first w. of Capt. Endicott, wh. is a sad error, as it was Gov. Thomas Dudley's w. that was meant. Perhaps the historian of Plymouth was misled in his assumpt. of the first resid. at S. by ano. suppos. that he was br. of Roger; but either of these seem to me very improb. tho. not so wild as the tradit. that he was a relat. of Oliver Cromwell. He was one of the first purch. of the terit. from the Ind. and was the chief male inhab. for many yrs. sprung from Glamorgansh. and m. it is said, by Emery I. 44, in Gloucestersh. had ch. John, prob. d. young; Samuel, Joseph, Nathaniel, bapt. 7 Feb. 1641, Thomas, Benjamin, Elizabeth and Hannah; and not has date of b. nor is there approxima. for any of the eight, exc. Elizabeth a. 1647, prob. therefore one of the oldest half, wh. m. John Bird of Dorchester; Hannah m. John Parmenter of Boston, as his sec. w. As it is very clear, that all these ch. were b. long after he sett. at T. I. greatly distr. the tradit. of his very early coming to our country, and more the Gloucestersh. w. He was rep. 1646, 8, 50, and sev. later yrs. but the time of his d. is not found. Descend. have been num. and highly respect. RICHARD, Boston, had Phebe, b. [[566]] Aug. 1643; and Benjamin, Aug. 1645, if the substitute for Robert in the rec. marg. of the vol. of births be adjudg. reasonable, when the ch. rec. of the bapt. of Phebe, a. eight days old, on 3 Sept. 1643, assigns her to Robert; and the same Robert had s. Benjamin, tho. the ch. rec. has John, of Robert, bapt. 7 Sept. 1645. RICHARD, Branford 1646, had Samuel, b. 13 Sept. 1655; and Daniel, 15 Apr. 1657; rem. to Fairfield 1658, but soon rem. again, and it is not kn. to what place. One Richard was a town officer, says Mitchell, at Bridgewater, in 1665. RICHARD, Stonington, or the disput. Narraganset territ. 1670, in 1677 had long controv. with Isaac Hall, a. lds at Misquamicut or Squamacuck, or such Ind. name now perhaps Westerly, in wh. W. best H. at last. RICHARD, Boston, by w. Bathsheba, had Joseph, b. 3 Dec. 1672, d. very soon; John, 24 Oct. 1673; and Joseph, again, 7 Mar. 1677. RICHARD, New Haven, a physician in 1691, of wh. no more is heard. ROBERT, Roxbury 1637, freem. 2 May 1638, came, it is said, from Norwich, Co. Norfolk, with w. Elizabeth by fam. tradit. nam. Stratton, and ch. Samuel, Mary, if not more, as that ch. was five yrs. old, and I think ano. s. John was a passeng. with his f. for clear is it, that he was not b. at R. where the only b. appear, Isaac, 1 Sept. 1638; Stephen, 8 Nov. 1640; and in the fam. geneal. is nam. also Thomas, by Ellis said to be b. after, and in the Hist. said to have d. young; but I doubt both the authorities, as neither b. nor d. after long search is found in the rec. of either town or ch. Still the deficiency of rec. is seen in other respects, as the will of 26 Nov. 1685, names gr.ch. Deboroah Totman, and Elizabeth Robinson, for wh. I find not the mos. so that we are uncertain, whether he had two ds. m. or three. His eldest d. Mary m. Nicholas Wood; w. Elizabeth d. last of June, or 28 July 1674, by strange carelessness in the town rec. call. 80 yrs. old. when she prob. was a dozen yrs. younger.

He d. 1 Sept. 1693, in the first art. of his will providing for the performance of the covenant with his w. ROBERT, Boston, in 1641 was, with Edward Goodwin, lessee of Winisemet ferry, wh. may render it prob. that he was s. of Thomas, adm. of the ch. 10 Apr. 1642, freem. 10 May 1643, had Joseph, b. July 1641, bapt. 17 Apr. 1642; Phebe, 3 Sept. 1643, a. 8 days old; John, 7 Sept. 1645, wh. d. young; and Benjamin. His will of 12 Oct. 1677, pro. 30 Jan. foll. gives lds. to his eldest s. Joseph and Benjamin, beq. to d. Phebe Eglin and her childr. to the eldest s. of Joseph and of Benjamin, and gr.d. Mary Eglin. ROBERT, Boston, of wh. I kn. no more than is seen in the diary of Sewall, where he says, under 25 Aug. 1695, "R. W. the grave-digger, bell-ringer, [[567]] &c. &c. d." ROBERT, Providence, tho. among the freem. of 1655, and a br. of the noble founder of Providence, yet little more is kn. of him, but that he was, ten yrs. later, sch.-master at Newport. ROBERT, Killingworth 1667, was propound. to be freem. 1669, had a d. b. 1671, but no more is kn. of him. Ano. ROBERT was of Oyster Bay, L. I. 1650; and Farmer MS. ment. one of N. H. as early as 1670, but he could not detain him there, certain. not long eno. for any story of him to reach us. ROBERT, Boston, by w. Margery, had Martha, b. 7 May 1672; Jonathan, 22 Sept. 1673; Mary, 2 Dec. 1675; James, 20 Feb. 1678; Jacob, 19 Dec. 1679; Elizabeth 8 Nov. 1681; Robert, 13 Jan. 1686, prob. d. young; Hepzibah, 1 Nov. 1688; and Robert, again, 3 Apr. 1691. Dr. Thaddeus William Harris, the late learned libr. at our Univ. count. the b. of his ancest. deac. Jonathan Williams eight yrs. too early. See p. 319 of the Geneal. and Hist. of the Williams fam. ROGER, Dorchester 1630, came in the Mary and John, prob. with w. Frances, req. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. of that yr. and was sw. on 18 May foll. serv. on the jury 30 Sept. of the first yr. upon the k. of Bratcher by Palmer, rem. early, prob. 1636 or 7, to Windsor, there was in good repu. had comfort. est. serv. on the jury 1642, 3, and 4, lost his w. by d. 10 Dec. 1645. He soon aft. 1647, or in that yr. sold ho. and ld. and came back to D. m. 1649 or be. Lydia Bates, d. of the first James, had Ebenezer, b. Jan. 1650, in that yr. call. hims. of Boston, when he sold ld. in D. to Thomas Thaxter; but no more is told of him. * ROGER, Providence, the great assert. of relig. freedom, b. in Wales 1599, as uncert. tradit. says, and she would make him, partly, as least, educ. at Oxford, where ano. Roger, or Roderic, was adm. 30 Apr. 1624, wh. was s. of William, and by Felt in Eccles. Hist. I. 147, resceiv. as our N. E. reformer, wh. to me, seems nearly impossib. But a strong prob. is, that he was not be. earlier than 1605; and the fact is, he was bred up at the Charter Ho. as in mod. days the sch. is call. but when W. was there, Sutton's Hospital. On that foundat. he was chos. a scholar 25 June 1621, and on 9 July 1624, again. an exhibition under powerf. patronage. This we learn from Mrs. Anne Sadler, d. of the gr. lawyer, Sir Edward Coke, in a collection of letters, at the library of Trinity Coll. Cambridge, by Williams, writ. a. 1652, to her; she wrote on the back of one of them (wh. had shocked her devotion to ch. and king) that her f. "took such liking to him, that he put him to Sutton's Hospitall, and he was the sec. that ws placed there," mean. perhaps by his gr. patron. From this favor of Coke arose, prob. the tradit. that our benign. founder of Providence had enjoy. the protection of the Lord Ch. Justic of the Common Pleas, had been support. at the Univ. of Oxford, and stud. the law for a profession under the great oracle of jurisprudence. But from [[568]] Winthrop's Hist. we kn. he had been a minister. The exhibition obtain. in the London Inst. 9 July 1624, seems to disprove his identi. with the stud. ent. at Jesus Coll. Oxford in Apr. preced. and my ignorance of the rules and customs of the Charter Ho. forbids me to speak with confidence. To write his life and illustrate his charact. has long been felt as a duty by the scholars of the beautiful city he found. and after serv. attempts more may be said. Professor Elton, wh. serv. yrs. since publish his biogr. has had means of discover. how he had been deceiv. as to the b. and educ. of the amiable hero; and we hope for ano. ed. of his vol. If at either of the Eng. Univ. he was educ. wh. seems very uncert. to me. Cambridge is entitl. to the honor, rather than Oxford. He came from Bristol, 1 Dec. 1630, in the Lion, and reach. Boston 9 Feb. foll. with w. Mary; and in few wks. during wh. he was desir. to settle in the ch. of Boston, by their unanimous choice, in the spring. of 1631, as he tells, in a letter (most characteristic of the writer, equal in value to any one in a thousand of our New Eng. epistles) to Rev. John Cotton of Plymouth, print. in Mass. Hist. Transactions of the Soc. 1855-08 pp. 313-6, but his tender conscience did not dare to officate to "an unseparated peopple." This statement of Williams I accept without hesitat. tho. in a note on p. 406 of Vol. I. of Hist. of N. E. by Prof. Palfrey, whose eye had been blessed with the orig. MS. a doubt might have pass. thro. his mind to extort the remark: "it is very extraordin. that the fact is not ment. in any record of the time." But no contempo. rec. exc. that of the Col. would possib. contain it, for no other is in exist. our earliest rec. of Boston civil affairs begins abrupt. in the middle of a sentence, Sept. 1634, preced, pages being lost, yet that is four or five yrs. bef. we have an orig. ecclesiastic. rec. of any thing exc. bapt. Even the name of Williams, our gr. reformer, is FIRST read in Col. Rec. Sept. 1635, being that of his banishm. Vol. I. 160; as ea. of the sev. prior read. of Roger Williams manifest. refers to the Dorchester man. But quite concur. with the sense and even phrase of that let. to Cotton is the lang. of Winthrop Hist. I. 53 in the order of Court, recit. that he "had refused to join with the congregat. [i. e. church] at Boston, because they would not make a pub. declarat. of their repent. for hav. commun. with the chhs. of Eng." &c. That order was in Apr. 1631, less than a fortnight after Boston ch. was left without a min. by Wilson's depart. for home, and two and a half yrs. bef. com. of Cotton's father. Assuredly he was not likely to refuse before he was asked. He next went to be assoc. with Skelton at Salem, in teach. that congreg. but was more wanted at Plymouth, in the autumn of that yr. and contin. good pt,. of two yrs. to minister here; hardly had he got back to Salem, where the people wish. him as successor of Skelton, bef. his overscrupul. conscience made [[569]] him and others trouble; and in two yrs. the affections of his people could not prevent the Gen. Ct. from banishm. of their teacher. He had been excommun. at S. for refus. to bring his ch. to bapt. &c. In the winter of 1635-6, he meekly obey, the cruel sentence, and next spring, or more prob. in June, laid the foundat. of the prosperous city by him, with pious emotion, call, Providence. See the opening chap. of Arnold's Hist. of R. I. There he was usually held in much honor, tho. occasional. overborne by antagon. against wh. his revenge was exhaust. in show. kindness. He always had the friendship of Gov. Winthrop tho. circumstances, consist. with the honor of both, enforced their long and sad separat. As the Col. agent in London, or chief Magistr. here, he was equal, discreet and disinterest. to his d. in Apr. 1683. Of his w. Mary, the fam. name, or date of the m. is unkn. but she came with her h. and may have had ch. in Eng. for only six can be precisely kn. to be b. on our side of the water; Mary is said to have been b. at Plymouth, the first week in Aug. 1633; Freeborn, at Salem, late in Oct. 1635; Providence, late in Sept. 1638, wh. d. unm.

SAMUEL, Roxbury, eldest s. of Samuel of the same, m. 24 Feb. 1680, Sarah May, d. prob. of the sec.

THOMAS, Plymouth 1620, passeng. in the Mayflower, one of the signers of the mem. compact at Cape Cod in Nov. had no fam. and d. soon after the land. as Gov. Bradford tells. Ano. THOMAS, Plymouth, not s. of the preced. was serv. of the wid. Warren, in 1635 charg. with profane speech. THOMAS, Boston 1630, was call. to serve on coroner's jury 18 Sept. of that yr. so that it may be presum. that he came in the fleet with Winthrop req. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. with an alias as Harris, without such alias was sw. 18 May foll. and the same day allow. to set up a ferry betw. Winisemet and Charlestown, and Winisemet and the younger town of Boston. As nothing more is ever heard of him, exc. that in 1651, he bot. a ho. of Walter Merry, I suppose he must have brot. fam. from Eng. and his w. d. early. Perhaps he was f. or br. of Robert of the same, wh. by lease from a Comtee. of the Gen. Ct. Sept. 1641, was made partaker of the interest in that Winisemet ferry, as in Rec. I. 341. THOMAS, Saco 1636, own alleg. to Mass. July 1653, then the chief man in that planta. where he had liv. near 20 yrs. THOMAS, Plymouth 1643, then able to bear arms. Ano. THOMAS, Boston, made his will 25 Apr. 1646, pro. 5 Nov. foll. calls John Spoore his master. See Geneal. Reg. III. 180. Farmer mistook him for the earlier Thomas of Boston. But later by a whole generat. may be seen in the rec. of b. the same puzzle that confound. me about four, five, or six Johns, as Thomas and Ann have many [[571]] ch. Thomas, b. 29 Mar. 1661; Charles, 20 Sept. 1662; Thomas, again, 9 Apr. 1664; Hannah, 22 Mar. 1666; Elizabeth 6 Feb. 1668; and Susanna, wh. may all belong to a single couple; yet, when Thomas and Elizabeth bring in a contribut. to the registry, doubt arises whether the f. be the same of Thomas, b. 1 Jan. 1677. THOMAS, perhaps of Rehoboth, bef. 1647, at least Thomas Bliss of R. in his will, 1649, calls him, h. of his eldest d. THOMAS, Eastham, had Nathaniel, b. 24 Apr. 1655, as Col. Rec. tells. THOMAS, Wethersfield, had ten ch. of wh. we kn. the names but of only seven the b. and that he had w. Rebecca is also kn. but whether she was the only one is less clear. He made his will 16 Dec. 1689, yet prob. d. not bef. Feb. 1693; left w. and eight ch. had Thomas, b. 9 Mar. 1657; Samuel, 11 June 1659, d. bef. his f.; John, 15 Apr. 1662; Jacob, 7 Mar. 1665; Sarah, 1667, d. bef. her f.; Rebecca, 1669; Mary, 1671; Abraham; Hannah; and Ruth. Four s. liv. at W. 1693. THOMAS, Groton, of whose f. the name or resid. is unkn. by w. Mary, m. says Butler, 11 July 1666, had Thomas, b. 17 Mar. foll.; John, 3 Nov. 1668; Mary, 3 Feb. 1672; and Hannah, 1 Feb. 1674. THOMAS, New London 1670, d. 24 Sept. 1705, a. 61 yrs. old, leav. wid. Joanna, s. John, Thomas, Jonathan, William, Samuel, and Ebenezer, beside five ds. the childr. being betw. 12 and 33 yrs. of age, and a gr.ch. as heir of a d. says Caulkins, 349. THOMAS, Watertown, s. perhaps of William of the same, m. Mary, d. of Richard Holden, and may be the same as THOMAS, Taunton, s. of Richard of the same, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 1680; Jonathan, 1683; Sarah, 1685; Mercy, perhaps is the intend. name print. Macy, 1687; Hannah, 1689; Bethia, 1692; Mehitable, 1695; and Damaris, 1698. His wid. m. 1707, Rev. James Keith of Bridgewater. THOMAS, Newbury, m. 16 Jan. 1696, Mary, d. of Benjamin Lowell, had Mary, b. 2 July 1697; and Henry, 27 Sept. 1699; but wh. was his f. or any more of him, we can learn nothing from the diligence of Coffin. TIMOTHY, Marshfield, of wh. we kn. that he was in the list of those able to bear arms 1643, and no more. WILLIAM, Salem 1637, if he may so claim in right of a gr. of ld. that yr. ment. by Felt, and I find he came that yr. from Great Yarmouth, Eng. aged 40, with w. Alice, 38, and two ch. whose names are not seen; and Elizabeth aged 31, wh. may have been his sis. came on the same day from Yarmouth. One Ann W. aged 15, came from Norwich, three days bef. with a differ. fam. He may have been of Watertown, for there was a propr. says Bond, of that name in that town, 1642; and the act of the Ct. in Apr. 1641 to be read in Rec. I. 316, refers to him. If not the same man, WILLIAM, Dover, had a gr. of ld. 1653, and was tax. there 1657-1668, says Quint, had William. WILLIAM, Hartford, cooper, early there, m. 25 Nov. 1647, Jane Westover, as Goodwin thot. [[572]] the name imports tho. it reads more like Westupor, perhaps d. of Jonas of Windsor; was freem. 1654; and he d. 17 Dec. 1689, and his wid. d. 25 of the same mo. His will of 1688 names five s. William, John, James, Gabriel, and Samuel (of wh. the first four had childr. bapt.), beside four ds. Elizabeth Jane, Ruth, and Mary. He was aged 66 at his d. but dates of b. of s. and gr.ch. are not ascertain. Ano. WILLIAM of Huntington, L. I. was, by Conn. authority, order. to be made freem. of its jurisdict. 1664. WILLIAM, Dover, s. of William of the same, m. Margaret, d. of Thomas Stephenson of the same, had William, b. 22 Dec. 1662; John, 30 Mar. 1664; and Elizabeth 25 Oct. 1665; perhaps other ch. WILLIAM, New London 1664, is by Miss Caulkins placed on the E. or Groton side of the riv. and she adds that he d. 1704, leav. s. Richard, William, Henry, and Stephen, beside d. Mary, w. of Samuel Packer. WILLIAM, Boston, m. 19 July 1660, Joanna Lynn, had Sarah, b. 20 Apr. 1662; Mary, 15 Jan. 1664; John, as I judge, 20 Dec. 1666 (tho. the name of mo. is then call. Hannah); Elizabeth 4 Jan. 1669; James, 18 Sept. 1670; Joanna, 18 Apr. 1673; William, 25 Jan. 1675; and was press. into serv. in Philip's war, as is told in Geneal. Reg. I. 139, and was k. at Medfield, I suppose, on 21 Feb. 1676. Ano. WILLIAM, Boston, by w. Sarah, had Joseph, 30 Nov. 1687. WILLIAM, Lynn, m. June 1681, Martha Tuf, had John, b. June 1682. ZEBEDIAH, Northampton, s. of Arthur of the same, m. 18 Dec. 1672, Mary, d. of William Miller of the same, had Mary, b. 24 Dec. 1673; and Zebediah, 1675, but bef. this last, had rem. to Deerfield, there was k. with capt.

WILLIAMSON, CALEB, Barnstable, m. 3 May 1687, Mary Cobb, prob. d. of James of the same, had Mary, b. 25 June 1688; William; Timothy, 29 Sept. 1692; Sarah, 2 Jan. 1695; Ebenezer, 4 Apr. 1697; Mercy; all bapt. 13 Aug. 1699; and Martha, 13 Feb. bapt. 14 Apr. 1700. He was capt. of a comp. under col. Church in the E. expedit. 1704; as Hutchinson has compil. from Nile's Hist. of the Ind. and French wars. He was, perhaps, s. of Timothy, but no earlier deriv. can prob. be successful, tho. fondly Dr. Cogswell in Geneal. Reg. I. 90, adopt. the suggest. to honor the fam. by refer. to Mr. Williamson, wh. 22 Mar. 1621, walk. with Capt. Standish acting as escort for Edward Winslow to meet the friendly sachem Massasoit, on the other side of the brook, when he made his first visit to Plymouth. No Williamson was there, we know, as passeng. in the first voyage of the Mayflower, wh. [[573]] had not sail. on her return, nor had any other vessel arr. See Young's Chron. 192. Prince ought to have detect. this error, wh. is the reverse of a very common one in the old rec. or even print. books. of sinking the final syllab.

TIMOTHY, Marshfield 1649, had two yrs. bef. been adm. freem. of the Col. prob. then liv. at Plymouth, m. 6 June 1653, Mary, d. of the first Arthur Howland, had Mary, b. 1654; Timothy, 1655, d. at 27 yrs.; Joanna, 1657; Experience; Martha; Abigail; George; and Nathan; and was bur. 6 Aug. 1676. His wid. m. 22 Jan. 1680, Robert Stanford, as Miss Thomas in her agreeable Memorials of M. relates.

GEORGE, Hartford, s. of Richard (or Timothy as ano. report makes him), a gent. from Fenny Compton, Co. Warwick, came in 1638, and is found one of the Assist. next yr. Dept.-Gov. in 1641, and Gov. next yr. d. 9 Mar. 1645, hav. made his will 14 Dec. preced. with codicil of 22 Feb. and 4 Mar. as may be seen in Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 468-72. In it we learn that his w. was Mary, eldest s. George, wh. had not come from Eng. and should have the Fenny Compton est. and if he came over was to have Wethersfield lds.; s. Samuel, wh. was here, to have est. aft. his mo. d.; Hester, wh. m. 17 Oct. 1645, capt. Robert Harding; and Amy, wh. m. 30 of the same mo. (or 6 Nov. by Hartford rec.) John Pynchon.

From Farmer we learn,, that one Henry, prob. not this man, was a volunteer in the expedit. 1636, against the Pequots; and that would make his resid. to have been in or near Salem, as Endicott was head of the force. Felt does not give the name. HEZEKIAH, Hartford, s. of Samuel, m. 2 May 1704, Elizabeth d. of Rev. Jeremiah Hobart, had Ruth, b. 1705; Elizabeth 1708; George, 1709, d. soon; George, again, 1710, Mabel, 1713; [[575]] Samuel, 1714, d. at 18 yrs.; was Secr. of the Col. 1712 to 1734, and d. 24 Dec. 1741. JEREMIAH, Lynn 1637, found at Newport in the freemen's list 1655. JOHN, Boston, so early a mem. with his w. Jane, in the ch. at Boston, that it was not only bef. the date of orig. rec. and numb. 135 and 6 in our ancient copy, but not a short time even prior to 6 Nov. 1632, when he was sw. freem. He perish. in the harbor, 21 Nov. 1634, as in Winthrop Hist. I. 150 is told. His w. d. early, as we may infer from the fact being noted on the copy, that it was bef. the beginning of the subsist. first ch. rec. An error in the Index to my early Ed. of Winthrop's Hist. of N. E. had misled Farmer to the opin. that this Boston man was the rep. in the first Gen. Ct. from Lynn, or at least, to refer to my suppos. of identity. JOHN, Boston, m. 11 Jan. 1655, Hannah Else, as the rec. shows, but wh. was either h. or w. is unkn. * JOHN, Duxbury 1640, bec. one of the first sett. of Bridgewater, where he was deac. m. Elizabeth wid. of the sec. William Palmer, wh. was a Hodgkins, had five s. and three ds. John; Nathaniel; Jonathan; Comfort; Benjamin; Hannah; Elizabeth; and Sarah; says Winsor; but Mitchell gives Joseph instead of Jonathan. In the absence of the means of informat. I would suggest the inquiry, if that wid. were not sec. w. of Mr. Willis, and some of his ch. b. by a former one. Mitchell says his will, of 1692, pro. 1693, refers to the eight ch. of wh. Hannah was w. of Nathaniel Hayward; Elizabeth m. a Harvey; and Sarah was w. of John Ames; further he tells that he had four brs. Jonathan, Lawrence, Nathaniel, and Francis, and leaves us to regret that only two of them can be well discern. thro. the distance. He was the first rep. that town ever sent, in 1657, and very oft. later. JOHN, Bridgewater, s. of the preced. was a deac. m. Experience, d. of Nicholas Byram, had John; Samuel, b. 1688; Experience; and Mary; and d. a. 1712, the only date, and that uncert. that the historian of the town yields.

JOSIAH, Boston, mariner, m. Oct. 1675, Hannah, d. of Mahalaleel Munnings, as in the deed to him by her mo. wid. of Thomas Overman, who had first been wid. of said Munnings, appears by our Reg. IX. 318. JOST, or JOIST, employ. Mar. 1631, as surveyor of ordnance and cannonier, at £10. per. an. prob. was a Dutchman, whose surname is near. as outlandish as that of his bapt. being Weillust in one place, Willust in others of our Col. Rec. I. wh. teaches us that in July 1632, he had leave to go home, now without regret of Gov. Winthrop and was paid £5. towards his pass. but as in Mar. 1635, Humphrey and Endicot wer appoint. to admin. on his est. to be div. among claimants, it may be feared that his skill was lost by [[576]] untimely d. on his way. LAWRENCE, Sandwich 1643, in the list of those able to bear arms, had Mary, b. 14 Apr. 1648, may have been br. of the first deac. John of Bridgewater, and liv. at B. when he m. 5 Sept. 1656, Mary, d. of Thomas Makepeace of Boston, but nothing is ascertain. with confidence, nor whether the freem. of Mass. 1669, were the same man, wh. is very prob. for the f. of his w. in the will made aft. his rem. to Boston, makes encourag. legacy to her in June 1666. MICHAEL, Dorchester, freem. 2 May 1638, by w. Joan had Joseph, bapt. 3 Feb. 1639, wh. prob. liv. not long; rem. with Powell to Boston, there was one of the found. of sec. ch. by w. Mildred had Michael, b. 11 Nov. 1652; whether he had any more bef. com. or any other than this one aft. I cannot learn, exc. by inf. from his will of 21 June 1669, pro. 7 Oct. foll. wh. makes it certain that he had a s. Experience bef. and some ds. m. how many, or what their names is not kn. beside d. Temperance wh. was bapt. 13 Feb. 1648, unm. yet of inq. for sev. gr.ch. to wh. he gave legacies (of wh. none but Joseph Phillips is call. out), obscure diligence may fail of its reward. His w. to wh. he had giv. power to dispose of some of his prop. aft. her own d. in her will of 20 Sept. 1680, increase, the confus. in part, and lends no clue to other part, only that one of his ds. Abigail, was a. 1658, sec. w. of Thomas Bill. Other ds. are Lydia Nowell; Joanna Ellis; and beside the darkness that hangs upon gr.s. Michael and gr.d. Marsh, tho. we may guess the former to be s. of Experience, suffic. trouble would remain in the search for "daur. Pollard's childr." yet the diffic. seems inextrica. when we find that beyond the thick clouds wherein we would hunt for the ds. of her h. she scatters all hope of success, by speaking of her "five own ds." So the only safe conclus. is that she was a young wid. with five ds. when Michael took her; but perhaps the ds. m. that he refers to in his will, may have been, some at least, not his offspr. but those of the sec. w. bef. their union. MICHAEL, Boston, s. of the preced. by w.Elizabeth had Joseph, b. 4 Jan. 1680; Abigail, 12 Mar. 1682; Deliverance, 1 Nov. 1684; Obadiah, 5 Mar. 1686; Hannah, 14 June 1688; and Michael, 4 July 1694; Ebenezer, 9 Apr. 1697; was a cooper, went to London, it is believ. and their d. 1712. NATHANIEL, Bridgewater, br. of the first John of the same, an orig. propr. and perhaps the earliest sch.-master of the town, had Elkanah, b. 20 May 1639; Judith, 14 June 1641; Mary, 14 Apr. 1648, all at Sandwich, as the indefatig. Mr. Morse instructs me; and Bethia, and d. bef. 1687, is all that Judge Mitchell teaches. NATHANIEL, Bridgewater, s. of the first deac. John of the same, by w. Lydia had Nathaniel, Jonathan, John, Ebenezer, Sarah, and Mary, and d. 1716. NICHOLAS, Boston, a mercer, as he is call. on join. the ch. 27 July 1634, as did his w.

Prob. he had [[577]] left s. (if he had one) at home, for no b. or bapt. is found here. He d. early in 1650, for in June of that yr. Peter Oliver, James Penn, and James Johnson were by our Gen.

Mary had Mary, b. 5 Mar. 1650; Elizabeth 26 Sept. 1657; if we believe the unhappy copy of rec. in the office of our Register, that gives next, Abigail, 2 Oct. 1657; and Hannah, 10 Feb. 1660; and leaves us to suppose these four were all. The orig. has prob. been lost a century and a half. Yet justly as we may, in some cases, distrust this copy of what was, perhaps, a true orig. it must [[581]] sometimes be received, when an earlier copy, viz. that quarto vol. in parchment, wh. has also copies of the b. d. and m. in most of the neighb. towns of Middlesex and Norfolk, as well as Boston, prior to 1666, should be disregard. for from that we should find not one of these four, thus carelessly insert. in the later; but he certain. had six if not seven ch. as from his will of 27 Sept. 1684, is to be partly learned, partly infer. It makes w. Mary extrix. and provides for distrib. to ch.

Hannah had Andrew, b. 12 May 1696; Hannah, 10 Aug. 1698; Deborah, 12 Oct. 1700; John, 28 Jan. 1703; Mary, 11 Mar. 1707; Damaris, 1 Nov. 1708, d. soon; Damaris, again, 25 Aug. 1710; and he d. 1722. ANTHONY, Fairfield 1643, m. Rachel, wid. of John Brandish, had Sarah; and next, m. Sarah, wid. of Thomas [[582]] Bulkley, d. of Rev. John Jones, and d. early in 1662, leav. good est. to his only ch. Sarah, beside £60. to his br. Samuel, and legacies to two other brs. Thomas, and John, to brs. William, and Ignatius Hill, and mo. Hill, and sis. Ann, but whether she was Wilson or Hill is uncert. and to four cousins, meaning nephews. Thomas Wilson. Peter Clapham, Edward Wilson, and Samuel, the last of wh. liv. with him. BENJAMIN, Taunton 1643, wh. was there among first sett. in 1638, as Baylies thinks I. 289. BENJAMIN, Charlestown, by w. Ann had Ann, b. 1 July 1655; Benjamin, 6 Oct. 1657; soon aft. as we must suppose, both mo. and ch. d. for Benjamin and Elizabeth are next seen on the rec. as hav. Benjamin, 4 June 1659, unless the name of w. is here perversely changed, as seems very prob. Some aid is furnish. by ch. rec. wh. certif. to us that Benjamin was bapt. 1 May 1664, but how old is not ment. and Jeremiah, 22 Oct. 1665. He was a mariner, d. "at sea lately," says the County rec. when admin. was giv. 17 Dec. 1667, to his wid. Ann. BENJAMIN, Roxbury, s. of nathaniel of the same, had three ws. as Jackson tells. By first, Sarah, had Benjamin, b. 6 Oct. 1678; rem. to Newton, there had, says Barry, John, 17 Apr. 1688. His w. d. 15 Apr. 1689; and by sec. w. Grace, had, if Jackson be correct, John; Benjamin; Joseph; Sarah; Mary; and William, 14 Oct. 1697. His third w. Esther perhaps surv. him, and his est. was admin. 1705. * DANIEL, Northampton, rep. 1665. EDWARD of Boston or Roxbury, a miller, prob. unm. d. 1638, as one might be justified by the will to inf. See. Geneal. Reg. VII. 30, where we may not be sure, that 19 Apr. was the date of mak. rather than of pro. It made his br. Thomas excor. gave him half his prop. and half to br. William but if W. do not come over to N. E. then the whole to Thomas. By Col. Rec. I. 235, it seems that Thomas present. to the Gen. Ct. on 4 Sept. foll. inv. of L48. 2s. EDWARD, Charlestown, join. the ch. 29 July 1660, m. 6 Nov. 1656, Mary, d. of deac. Robert Hale, wh. join,. 23 Feb. 1662, had William, bapt. 5 Aug. 1660; Mary, 20 July 1662; John, 6 Nov. 1664; Joanna, 21 Apr. 1667; Catharine, 14 Nov. 1669; Edward, 23 Apr. 1671; Elizabeth 1 Feb. 1674, prob. d. soon; Samuel, 25 July 1675, prob. d. soon; Elizabeth again, 2 Sept. 1677; Samuel, again, 23 May 1680; and Hale, 7 Aug. 1681. EDWARD, Salem 1646, had m. a d. of Michael Sallows, wh. in his will of Nov. in that yr. nam. W. as one of his excors. EDWARD, Fairfield, d. 1684, leav. Nathaniel, and Mary, w. of Jonathan Moorhouse, but not wid. His inv. is of 12 Nov. in that yr. EPHRAIM, Dedham, s. of Henry of the same, m. 10 May 1681, Rebecca, d. of Samuel Sumner, had Ephraim, b. 27 Feb. 1684; Samuel, 5 Apr. 1687; and Rebecca, 28 Jan.1695. FRANCIS, Woburn, m. 6 Mar. 1683, Ruth Duntlen. GAWIN, Kittery, submit. to Mass. jurisdict. Nov. 1652 [[583]] GEORGE, Kittery, perhaps s. of the preced. or only by ill chirogr. may be pervert. to mean ano. was 36 yrs. old in 1654. HENRY, Dedham 1639, freem. 2 June 1641, m. 24 Nov. 1642, Mary, d. of Michael Metcalf the first, had Michael, b. 7 Aug. 1644; Mary, bapt. 21 Nov. 1652; Sarah, 22 Jan. 1654; Ephraim, June 1656. HUMPHREY, Exeter 1645, s. of Thomas, m. Dec. 1663, Judith, d. of William Hersey of Hingham. ISAAC, Newton, s. of the first Nathaniel m. July 1685, Susanna Andrews, had Isaac, b. 14 May foll.; Samuel; Ebenezer; Susanna; Hannah; and Abigail. JACOB, Braintree, freem. 2 June 1641, had Isaac, b. 28 Jan. of that yr.; and Sarah, 28 Jan. 1642. JAMES, Woburn, by w. Deborah had a d. in 1688 whose name is not giv. prob. d. soon; Deborah, 27 Feb. 1690; and Abigail, 8 Feb. 1692. Perhaps he rem. JEREMIAH, New Shoreham, or Block Isl. s. of Samuel of Portsmouth, R. I. by w. Mary had Elizabeth; Mary; Samuel; Jeremiah; John; Sarah; James; Mary; George; Alice; Ann; and Judith; and d. 1740. JOHN, Boston 1630, b. at Windsor where his f. Rev. William, of wh. he was third s. had a prebendal stall, in 1588, from Eton sch. went to the univ. of Cambridge in 1602, as Mather tells, much of whose story of his early days has apocryphal sound, there of Christ's Coll. had his A. B. 1605-6, and A. M. 1609, as by me in the registry of the Univ. seen, tho. Mather would have it Emanuel; and Farmer writes at King's, where, indeed, may, as the Magnalia tells, have been the adm. Aft. serv. as chaplain in sev. houses, he was induct. at Sudbury in the S. border of Co. Suffolk; there contin. ten or twelve yrs. but disgust. with the worhsip of forms and vestments growing in the ch. he encourag. the coloniz. of the Mass. Bay, and came 1630, with the Gov. and Comp. bring. the chart. in the Arbella. His w. Elizabeth whose name is not distinct. read in Mather, tho. in his usual roundabout way he says, Magn. III. cap. 3, p. 42, that W. designed to m. a d. "of the lady Mansfield, wid. of Sir John," remain. in Eng. prob. with care of the ch. Edmund first b. (so nam. for his gr. uncle Edmund Grindall, the puritan archbishop of Canterbury 1575-83); John; and others, if there wre more; but when he went back to Eng. and came again 1632, he brot. her and s. John, but the oldest s. perhaps never was on this side of the ocean. The w. was sis. of the w. of Robert Keayne, and her br. John with his fam. got over to Boston, two yrs. later, in poverty; and torment Keayne very much, if his will be good evid. as may, partly, be read in Geneal. Reg. VI. 156. He made sec. voyage to Eng. 1634, and came again in the summer, of 1635, wh. led me to mistake, formerly, the time of his w.'s coming, as she did not join our ch. bef. 20 Mar. 1636; whereas we see. that this d. Mary was bapt. 8 Sept. 1633, unless the ch. rec. means a week later, the copy of town rec. certif. that she was b. 12 Sept. He [[584]] had request. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was sw. 3 July 1632, and d. 7 Aug. 1667, and was bur. on the Sunday foll. Of the good desert of the first min. of Boston, abund. proof if found in the Magn. III. cap. 3, with some few lamentab. characteristics of the author, perhaps little to be regard. in derog. from the charact. of W. Yet of one trait in him, the zeal for the glory of God, as exhib. in "Ill Newes from New Eng." where the testimony of Obadiah Holmes, the bapt. confessor, is fully giv. we must regret that it surpassed the limits of self-respect, as well as common decency. H. tells aft. his sentence to imprisonm. and cruel scourg. "as I went from the Bar, I exprest myself in these words; I bless God I am count. worthy to suffer for the name of Jesus; whereupon John Wilson (their Pastor as they call him) strook me bef. the judgm.-seat. and cursed me, saying, the curse of God or Jesus go with thee." For the imprecation upon the heretic lenity may be extend. as we hope, by the final Judge, when he cometh in the clouds of heaven: but at the tribunal of gentlement the assault on a defenceless prisoner, even tho. convict. by his own confess. of the crime of preach. what he thot. truth, meets no indulgence. Graditude has always been express, for the found. of Boston ch. no doubt in some degr. arising from the munific. contrib. of £1,000. by his br. William in Eng. and the most judicious invest. of part of that sum. as in Col. Rec. I. 128 alluded to, and may by any minute antiquary be seen in 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 228, all assist. in keep. active the generous emotion. The eldest s. travel. in Holland and Italy, where he gain. the honor of M. D. but as I doubt whether he ever came across the sea. I do not inquire for much detail as to his m. or wh. was his w. nor can I tell more than that he liv. at London as a physician, d. a. 1658, leav. s John, and d. Bridget, wh. m. Nicholas Prideaux, merch. of Barbadoes. His d. Mary m. 5 Nov. 1651, Rev. Samuel Danforth of Roxbury, and next a Buck of Boston (whose bapt. name eludes my search, for many hours, at var. times), and d. 13 Sept. 1713. Mather's life is, perhaps, the best of any in his catal, of min. yet the caution to be used in read, all other parts of the Magn. must not be neglect. here. In 19 of that 3d chap. in proof of the "certain prophetic afflatus, wh. oft. directs the speeches of" men like Wilson, he refers to the success fo john Hull, as foretold by W. bec. of his attention to his mother "weak in body and poor in est." Mather had no intent. of casting ridicule uppon prophecy, for he was giv. to showing his ability in the same way, but his fancy, was usual, outran his judgement; and his memory, great as it was, forever calls on invention to come to the aid of truth. Hull's mo. Elizabeth wh. d. above 16 yrs. bef. M. was b. is not to be specially mark. as "poor in est." and if the writer meant Judith the sec. w. of his f. and mo. of the young man's w. (as is [[585]] most prob.) the panegyric is even less neccessa.; but indeed this sec. w. d. nine yrs. bef. the b. of the historian. More or less accomodat. of fact to theory is observ. in other authors than him whose Magnalia is the monum. to delineate his character no less than his desire, tho. prob. to few it is ascribe. in equal extent. JOHN, Medfield, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. Sept. 1621, H. C. 1642, had the benefit of join. the ch. of his f. 3 Mar. 1644, but was not freem. until 1647, ord. as collea. with Rev. Richard Mather at Dorchester in 1649, but contin. only two yrs. and was then sett. at M. by w. Sarah had John, bapt. at Boston, 8 July 1648; Thomas,b. 12 Nov. 1652; Elizabeth 1653; Increase, 1656; John, again, 1660; and Thomas, again, 2 Mar. 1662, or, as Barry says, 18 Nov. of that yr.; beside Susanna, Dec. 1664, wh. m. 1683, Rev. Grindal Rawson of Mendon; and d. 23 Aug. 1691. JOHN, Woburn, had Samuel, b. 29 Dec. 1658; Abigail, 8 Aug. 1666; Elizabeth 6 Aug. 1668; Benjamin, 15 Oct. 1670; and Hannah, 31 May 1672, wh. d. soon; John, 3 Jan. 1673; Hannah, again, 28 Dec. 1674, d. soon; Hannah, again, 11 Mar. 1677; and Susanna, 11 Mar. 1679. He may be the man wh. Barry says came 1651, in the John and Sarah from London. In so common a name to discern whose s. was that JOHN, the solider in Beers's comp. k. by the Ind. with his capt. 4 Sept. 1675, must be very diffic.; and he d. 2 July 1687. JOHN, Dover, there tax. 1666, as was found by the dilig. of Rev. John of Mefield, m. 4 July 1683, Sarah, of the same, propound. for freem. 1675, m. Lydia, d. of John Cole, had John; Stebbing; Hannah; and Mary; and he d. 16 Jan. 1698. JOHN, New Haven, prob. s. of Rev. John of Medfield, m. 4 July 1683, Sarah, d. prob. of Rev. Roger Newton of Milford, had Sarah, b. 1 Apr. 1684; and no more is there kn. of him. He was not a propr. 1685; but was liv. at Medfield, there had John, b. May 1686; Elizabeth Oct. 1689; and Roger, 1691, JOHN, Billerica, freem. 1690, may have had fam. for in the Court's list he is mark. sen. JOSEPH, Dorchester, freem. 2 May 1638, was perhaps, br. of Benjamin, as he is found with him among earliest sett. at Taunton, in Baylies I. 286, and Mr. Clap has not included either of the names at D. But whether either had fam. I see not. JOSEPH, Lynn, m. 2 May 1670, Dorcas Randall, had Jacob, b. 3 Sept. 1671; and he may have rem. JOSEPH, Andover, s. of William of Boston, m. 4 July 1670, Mary Lovejoy, prob. d. of John of the same, had Mary, wh. d. 31 Mar. 1674, and his w. d 18 June 1677. He next m. 24 Apr. 1678, Sarah Lord, and d. 1718. His w. Sarah suffer. long imprison. on charge of witchcr. 1692, and sav. her life by confession. JOSEPH, Malden, had Joseph, b. 27 Sept. 1673, was freem. 1685, and allow. to be ensign the same yr. but so early as Dec. 1674, had been call. to take o. of fidel. as a soldier, bec. capt. and d. or was bur. 14 Jan. [[586]] 1705, aged 58. JOSEPH, Newton, s. of Nathaniel of the same, by w. Deliverance had Hannah, b. 10 June 1685; Deliverance, 11 Oct. 1687; Margaret, 27 Feb. 1689; Sarah; Thankful, 24 Mar. 1692; Mary, 24 Jan. 1694; Experience, 10 Nov. 1696; Abigail; Elizabeth 30 May 1703; and Josiah, 31 Oct. 1704. JOSEPH, Andover, perhaps s. of Joseph of the same, m. 25 Jan. 1700, Mary Richardson. LAMBERT, Salem,, the surg. sent over 1629, by the Gov. and Comp. in London. See their letter of instruct. to capt. Endicott, in Col. Rec. I. 396, by the hands of Higginson, wherein they inform. the people here that the bargain was for his service three yrs. but my doubt is strong. whether he contin. half the time. MATTHEW, New Haven 1642, of wh. no more is learn. MICHAEL, Wrentham, perhaps s. of Henry of Dedham, by w. Mary had Sarah, b. 18 Feb. 1676; Mary, 16 Feb. 1678; Michael, 6 Feb. 1682; Silence, 16 Feb. 1684; Noah, 4 Sept. 1686; and Henry, 9 Apr. 1690. NATHANIEL, Roxbury, whose f. is never ment. and perhaps he never came to our side of the ocean, m. 2 Apr. 1645, Hannah, d. of Griffin Crafts, had Hannah, bapt. 2 May 1647; Ellis gives, 135, Hannah and Mary, tw. 1647, yet perhaps this is mistake of the name of the month for that of a ch.; Susanna; Nathaniel, b. 30 Apr. bapt. 8 May 1653; Joseph and Benjamin, tw. 31 Jan. bapt. 17 Feb. 1656; Isaac, 24, bapt. 29 Aug. 1658; Mary, 22 bapt. 23 June 1661; Abigail, 1663; Samuel; and ano. d. perhaps Rebecca; and d. 17 Sept. 1692, aged 70, says Jackson, wh. marks his rem. to Newton, then call. Cambridge vill. and was freem. 1690, unless his s. of the same name be there meant. His w. d. one mo. bef. him. Hannah m. 7 Feb. 1669, Shubael Seaver, as Roxbury rec. says; Susanna m. 31 Dec. 1673, Thomas Gill; Mary m. 19 Apr. 1682, Thomas Oliver as his sec. w.; and Abigail m. 1687, deac. Edward Jackson, as his sec. w.; and Jackson says Rebecca m. Shubael Seaver, and if that be correct, she was his sec. w. The d. of Hannah Wilson, 12 Nov. 1645, is ment. by Ellis; but perhaps it was only a premat. b. NATHANIEL, Newton, s. of the preced. was a soldier in Johnson's comp. in the hard serv. of Dec. 1675, espec. when, in the swamp fight, his f.'s friend, the capt. was k. by the Ind. m. a. 1680 or bef. June 1681, Hannah, d. of Edward Jackson, sen. not (as the Hist. of Newton, 445, by the dilig. Francis Jackson, Esq. makes her) of Rev. John Oliver, a mistake easily fallen into, bec. Oliver had d. Hannah by the same w. who bec. w. of Jackson, who had also, by the first w. a Hannah who. m. John Ward; but Oliver's d. Hannah d. young; and his wid. mo. of that dec. Hannah, aft. m. with Jackson brot. him this sec. Hannah. He had Nathaniel, b. 4 Dec. 1682; Elizabeth 9 Nov. 1684; Hannah, 18 Oct. 1686; Susanna, 6 Nov. 1688; and Edward, 3 Oct. 1689; and his w. d. 26 Sept. foll. He m. 11 Mar. 1693, Elizabeth d. of Humphrey [[587]] Osland, had Mary; Relief; Thankful; and Abigail; all b. aft. his rem. to Framingham, where his w. d. 10 Mar. 1715, and he d. 26 Dec. 1721. NATHANIEL, Hartford, s. of Phineas of the same, m. Susanna, d. of Dep.-Gov. William Jones of New Haven, had Benjamin and Rebecca, but aft. much misconduct to her, and foll. the evil courses begun bef. m. he desert. her, went to parts unkn. and was regard. as d. insomuch that his est. was admin. 1703, when the inv. was only L606. 6s and the w. d. 1705. Aft. est. was giv. to his sis. Rowlandson and Jesse, the reprobate reappear. and long trouble in the law foll. until 1720, when the assembled wisdom of the Gen. Ct. was invoked for final adjustm. PAUL, Charlestown, a householder 1677, of wh. no more is learn. exc. that his w. Mary join. the ch. 10 Apr. 1687. PHINEAS, Hartford 1675, had come from Dublin, and was a prosper, merch. by first w. perhaps tak. in Eng. Mary, only d. of Nathaniel Sanford, had Nathaniel; Hannah; and Mary; and by sec. w. Elizabeth m. a. 1690, whose fam. name is sought in vain, wid. of John Hayward the Notary of Boston, wh. had been wid. of Samuel Sendall, and earlier, the third w. of John Warren, had no ch. and d. 22 May 1692, aged 64. His inv. 6 June next, shows L4,102. By his will of 6 May 1691, he gave a small sum to ea. of three sis. of his, all liv. near Hull in E. riding of Yorksh. and an equal amount to Abigail Warren, d. of his w. wh. m. first, 14 Jan. 1693, Richard Lord, and next, Timothy Woodbridge; and the shares of his ds. were L955. ea. Hannah m. Joseph Rowlandson; and Mary m. David Jesse of Boston, and next Joseph King of Suffield. The son had, of course, a larger amo. quite eno. to ruin him. Aft. d. of this fourth h. the wid. transact. large business in money lending at H. until some yrs. bef. her d. 9 or 19 July 1727, aged 86, by her will gladdens many relatives, and the details may be agreeable: to her s.

RICHARD, Boston 1639, a youth who stole money from his master, and was set to serv. for some yrs. to a new master, but abus. him, so as to be sentenc. to be whip. in 1641, may not reason. seem the same as the [[588]] foll. but may be he of Duxbury, able to bear arms 1643, of wh. no more is heard. RICHARD, Boston, m. 7 Apr. 1654, Sarah Hurst, perhaps d. of one wh. d. the yr. preced. made his will of 19 Aug. 1654, of wh. William Kilcup was one of the overseers, and gave every thing to his wid. and the amt. was worth having, tho. not large. See Geneal. Reg. V. 305, and VIII. 277. ROBERT, Windsor, an early sett. tho. not among the first, m. Elizabeth d. of deac. Edward Stebbins, had John, rem. to Farmington, and had Samuel, b. 1653; perhaps no other ch. and d. at F. 21 July 1655. His wid. m. 1658, Thomas Cadwell. An Isabel W. m. 4 June 1645 or 6, the sec.

Smith, perhaps w. of James or John, as Quakers. Yet six yrs. later, he was join. with the majority in petition. against imposts; and d. prob. May 1681, for his inv. was tak. in May, and his w.

Lothrop's comp. call. "the flower of Essex," cut off 18 Sept. 1675 at Deerfield. SAMUEL, New Haven, sw. fidel. 1644, rem. a. 1649, and possib. may be the SAMUEL of Fairfield 1654, whose d.

Ano. SAMUEL, perhaps that freem. of 1684, earlier by one yr. than Joseph of Malden, may have been his br. and prob. the lieut. of 1690. SAMUEL, Newton, s. of Nathaniel first, m. Experience, d. of the first James Trowbridge, had Experience, b. 21 Sept. 1697, d. young; Margaret, 28 Aug. 1699; Samuel, 18 Mar. 1701; Thomas, 8 May 1703; and Experience, again, 2 Aug. 1705.

Reg. II. 384 is found. His wid. m. next yr. John Legat. See Col. Rec. II. 58. THOMAS, Ipswich, perhaps s. of Theophilus, had Mary, b. 27 Dec. 1657; and may also have had Hannah, wh. d. June 1682; but w.'s name is not heard. THOMAS, Fairfield, accept. to be made free 1664, was br. or neph. of Anthony of the same, had good est. and d. 1691, leav. wid. Hannah, no s. one d. whose name is not seen. THOMAS, Mildford, had b. there Benjamin in 1673, and soon rem. THOMAS, Brookfield 1667-72, may not be the same as the preced. but no more is kn. of him. WILLIAM, Boston, a joiner, with w. Patience, was adm. of our ch. 6 Sept. 1635, had, as is seen in the rec. of Geneal. Reg. III. 40, Shoreborn, b. 6 Aug. preced. and brot. to bapt. 13 Sept. foll. but if this name imply that a ch. of the fam. had bef. been nam. Seaborn, as Bond suppos. I doubt, for the incident might as well be tak. for evid. that Theophilus was br. of William, since it is said that David Fiske, wh. is call. s.-in-law opf Theophilus, had m. Seaborn Wilson. Also he had Mary, 11, bapt. 21 Jan. 1638; John, Jan. bapt. 9 Feb. 1640; Joseph, 10, bapt. 12 Nov. 1643, "a. five days old;" Newgrace, bapt. 23 Mar. 1645, "a. four days old," d. in Aug. foll.

WILLIAM, Lynn, m. 26 Oct. 1663, Priscilla, perhaps d. of Oliver Purchase, had William, b. 28 Aug. 1664; Priscilla, 28 Mar. 1666; Oliver, 9 Feb. 1668; and Sarah, 5 June 1670; and his w. d. 21 Oct. 1671, unless the d. ment. on the rec. be of his ch. instead of his w. Of this name Farmer found forty-five had been gr. 1829 at N. J. and N. E. coll. of wh. I find ten at Harv. two at Dart. and one at Yale. WILTERTOWN, WOLTERTON, or WINTERTON, GREGORY, Hartford, among orig. proprs. 1637, of wh.

WILTON, * DAVID, Dorchester 1632, freem. 11 June 1633, rem. with the gr. migrat. to Windsor 1635 or 6, was rep. 1646, 7, 50-4, 6, rem. 1660 to Northampton, and was one of the pillars at the foundat. of the ch. 18 June next yr. and rep. to Boston 1665, ens. 1662, in 1663 was lieut. and serv. in Philip's war, d. at Windsor, on a visit, 5 Feb. 1678.

NICOHOLAS, Windsor, br. of the preced. m. 20 Nov. 1656, Mary Staniford, had David, b. 13 Jan. 1661; and John, 8 Aug. 1664; of neither of wh. is any thing kn. He and his w. d. 4 Aug. 1683. WINBOURNE, or WENBORN, JOHN, Manchaster, a preacher 1686 and earlier, but was gone in 1689. He had m. 11 Apr. 1667, Elizabeth Hart at Malden, but prob. did not reside there; nor is it kn. where or whence he came, or whither he went. Possib. he was s. of William Wenbourne of Boston. See that. WINCH, JOHN, Framingham, s. of Samuel, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 21 Dec. 1706; John, 10 July 1710; David, 9 Dec. 1714; Jonathan, 3 July 1716; Deborah, 27 Dec. 1717; and d. 19 Jan. 1719. SAMUEL, Framingham, had been of Sudbury 1671, m. 11 Feb. 1674, Hannah, d. of Matthew Gibbs of Sudbury, had John, b. 1675, d. young; Samuel, 27 Mar. 1677; John, again, 8 Jan. 1680; David, 15 Mar. 1684; Hannah, 16 Jan. 1688; Silence, 10 Nov. 1690; and by sec. w. m. 12 [[591]] Jan. 1699, Sarah, wid. of Benjamin Barnard of Watertown, had Mary, 23 Nov. 1700; and Daniel, 28 June 1702; and d. or was bur. 3 Aug. 1718. Of the orig. of this fam. no acco. is to be found. A maid of 15 yrs. nam. Mary W. had come 1634, in the Francis, with Rowland Stebbins, from Ispwich in Co. Suffolk. WINCHCOMBE, JOHN, Boston 1670 or earlier, appoint. 1684 a sergeant to attend the Gov. with salary, by w. Mary had John, b. 22 July 1676, prob. d. young; Elizabeth 8 Sept. 1678; Charles, 19 Sept. 1679; and John, again, 3 Jan. 1682. WINCHELL, or WINSHALL, DAVID, Windsor, s. of Robert m. 18 Nov. 1669, Elizabeth d. of William Filley, had Joseph, b. 13 Sept. 1670; Christian, 9 Mar. 1673; Elizabeth 9 Dec. 1675; and ano. d. perhaps two ch. rem. to Suffield, and had David, 19 Mar. 1682; Mary, 8 Feb. 1685; Jedediah, 13 Mar. 1688, d. at 2 yrs.; Jedidiah, again, 29 Dec. 1690, d. young; and he d. 1723 or 4, leav. two s. and four ds. Perhaps the name of Elizabeth W. aged 52, a passeng. in the Rebecca, from London, Apr. 1635, with John, 13, prob. her s. may rather be Wincol. JONATHAN, Windsor, br. of the preced. m. 16 May 1666, Abigail, perhaps d. of Richard Brownson of Farmington, had Jonathan, b. Feb. 1667, if the copy of rec. in Geneal. Reg. V. 363, be trusted; Jonathan, 14 Feb. 1669; Benjamin, 28 June 1674; rem. to Suffield, and had Abigail, 8 June 1679, and perhaps other ch. bef. or aft. for no acco. of him further is giv. but that he was on freemen's list, 1669. NATHANIEL, Windsor, eldest br. of the preced. freem. 1657, m. 4 Apr. 1664, Sarah Porter, eldest d. of Thomas of Hartford, had Nathaniel, b. 5 Aug. 1665; Thomas, 25 May 1669; Sarah, 26 Dec. 1674; Stephen, 18 Aug. 1677; John, 1680; and Mary, 1683; and he d. 8 Mar. 1700. ROBERT, Dorchester, but how early is not kn. nor how he came, but prob. with w. and perhaps one ch. was there 1635, and carr. two s. Nathaniel and Jonathan, to Windsor a. 1638, there had Phebe, bapt. 24 Mar. 1639, d. at 23 yrs.; Mary, 5 Sept. 1641; David, 22 Oct. 1643; Joseph, 5 Apr. 1646, wh. d. bef. his f.; Martha, 18 June 1648, d. in 7 yrs; and Benjamin, 11 July 1652, d. at 4 yrs. His w. whose name is not heard, d. 10 July 1655, and he d. 21 Jan. 1668. In his will of that mo. s. Nathaniel, Jonathan, and David are nam. and Mary refer. to as hav. had her portion. WINCHESTER, * ALEXANDER, Braintree, came over in the train of Henry Vane in the Defence, arr. 3 Oct. 1635, was rec. mem. of Boston ch. 8 Nov. foll. and made freem. 7 Dec. 1636; had Mary, bapt. 19 Nov. 1637; liv. at Braintree aft. that, was rep. 1641, and clk. of the writs, but rem. to Rehoboth, where he was one of the first combinat. 1644, as in Baylies II. 198, is seen, was selectman 1647, d. 16 July in that yr. [[592]] It appears id. 208, that he left childr. but their names are not found, exc. Elizabeth b. 28 Mar. 1640; and Hannah, 10 Dec. 1642, both at Braintree; and Lydia at Rehoboth, beside the first ment. Boston ch. so that as his will names no s. we may believe that he never had one. JOHN, Hingham 1636, came in the Elizabeth the yr. bef. at the age of 19, with Clement Bates, and therefore may be suppos. from Co. Herts, was freem. 9 Mar. 1637, m. 15 Oct. 1638, Hannah, d. of deac. Richard Sealis of Scituate, had Mary, bapt. 1640; John; Josiah, b. 27 Mar. bapt. 20 May 1655; and Jonathan, says Farmer, wh. notes in MS. that this last d. of smallpox at Roxbury 1679, refer. to ch,. rec. for his authority; and soon aft. 1650 rem. to the Muddy riv. part of Boston, d. 25 Apr. 1694, and in his will of 1691 gave his est. to the s. John and Josiah, wh. contin. to live upon the same. He had, in the great milit. quarrel of 1645, fallen under fine for the trouble, wh. he and his neighb. caused, wh. was next yr. remit. on acco. of his poverty as in Col. Rec. III. 80, is read. * JOHN, Brookline, s. of the preced. by two ws. Hannah, and Joanna, had six s. and four ds. fo wh. Jackson gives the name of Stephen only, b. Feb. 1686, was the first rep. of the town, and d. 1718. In the copious Hist. of Newton may be read valuab. acco. of descend. of Stephen. WINCOL, WINCALL, or WINKLE, HUMPHREY, Cambridge 1634, was perhaps, from little Waldingfield in Co. Sufflk. JOHN, Salem, 1631. Felt. * JOHN, Watertown, s. of Thomas of the same, perhaps a passeng. aged 13, in the Rebecca from London, 1635, with Elizabeth 52, wh. may have been his mo tho. more prob. his aunt, is by Bond mark. as a propr. 1637, freem. 1646, rem. soon aft. to Kittery, where with many others he submit. 1652 to jurisdict. of Mass. and for wh. he was rep. at Boston 1653, 4, and 5, in the sec. yr. titled lieut. yet the yr. aft. call. at W. serg. and in 1658 rep. for W. in 1665 was of loyalty suffic. to be made a justice by the royal commissnrs. as of Newichawanock, that includ. perhaps both sides of the riv. tho. his resid. was in Berwick, and faithful to Mass. was rep. for K. again 1675, 7, and 8, and from 1676-85 in the commissn. under either or both Stoughton and Danforth, as Pres. to serve in the counc. clk. and reg. yet seeming most to rejoice in the style of capt. and w. Elizabeth and d. 22 Oct. 1694, as we may be sure, by fall. from his horse, and also from the ment. in Sewall's Diary of the appoint. of Hammond to succeed him in Dec. of that yr. ROBERT, Mass. but of what town can hardly be judg. as all that is kn. of him is adm. as freem. 6 May 1635. THOMAS, by Farmer mark. of Salem 1631, may be the man fin. for drunk. 4 Mar. 1633. THOMAS, Watertown, a propr. in 1642, is therefore suppos. by Bond to have come over aft. his s. John, and to hav brot. w. Beatrice, wh. d 1 June 1655, and he d. 10 June [[593]] 1657, well advanc. in in yrs. Bond says he was allow. 1649 to keep an inn. WINDALL, THOMAS, Ipswich 1643, Felt -- is the total of Farmer's MS. note; but little more worth having is to be seen under Wendall. WINDIAT, JOHN, DOVER, sen. and jun. are introd. on the authority of Farmer in MS. note, from rec. of Ct. of Quarter sess. in 1686; and without daring to propose a substitute, I suggest that the name may have been mistak. for aft. sev. hours' search, I am unable to discov. it in any quarter. But aft. a week's despair unexpected. I find solution of Farmer's puzzle. Such is the spelling in the Prob. Rec. X. 264, of the will of 12 Mar. 1684, with codic. 1 Dec. 1687, pro. 23 Mar. foll. bef. Walter Barefoot, whereof the excors. refus. admin. was giv. to the wid. 5 Apr. next, by Sir Edmund Andros, and I kn. from Infallib. marks that the testator was WINGATE, first ancest. of a much disting. fam. WINDOW, RICHARD, Gloucester 1648, selectman in 1654, had d. Ann by w. Elinor, wh. d. 16 May 1658, and he m. 30 Mar. 1659, Bridget, wid. of Henry Travers, made his will 2 May 1665, and d. 5 June foll. and in Col. Rec. IV. pt. 2, p. 304, the wid. and her s. obtain. relief, so far at least, as to be told by the Gen. Ct. that Essex Ct. might act. In his will are ment. d. Ann, Elizabeth Bennet, call. d.-in-law, and Sarah Davis. His wid. wh. had childr. by former h. d. Oct. 1673; but the settlem. of her est. next mo. leaves me in doubt, as did his ,as to some relationships of either. WINDS, WENDES, WINES, or WYNES, * BARNABAS, or BARNABY, Watertown, freem. 6 May 1635, sold his lds. in 1642 and 4, and rem. to Southold, L. I. the Conn. jurisdict. adm. him as freem. 1662, and Barnabas, jun. prob. his s. in 1664 to the same privilege; but nothing more is kn. of his fam. In the mutations of this name, from variety of sound prob. it will be seen to have the increm. into Winders; but my evid. can reach only to Barnabas the first, wh. was rep. 1664. FAINTNOT, Charlestown 1635, was adm. of the ch. 4 Nov. 1643, as few mos. later was Bridget, prob. his w. freem. 29 Mary 1644, of wh. no ch. is ment. nor can any more be learn. but that he d. 25 Feb. 1665. WING, ANANIAS, Sandwich, s. of the sec. John, by w. Hannah had nine ch. whose names I have not seen, and he d. 3 Aug. 1718. His wid. d. 9 Dec. 1730. DANIEL, Sandwich 1643, s. of John, b. in Eng. m. 5 Nov. 1642, Ann or Hannah, d. of the first William Swift, had eleven ch. Samuel and John, nam. in the will, 12 Oct. 1662, of Swift's wid. beside ds. of who. was prob. Deborah, b. 10 Oct. 1648, and d. in 1659. See Geneal. Reg. V. 387 with VI. 96. Besides Deboroah's exact date of b. I have gained those of the other ch. Hannah, 28 July 1642; Lydia, 23 May 1647; Ephraim, or Daniel, 1649; Samuel, 20 or 28 Aug. 1652; [[594]] Hepzibah, 7 Nov. 1654; John, 14 or 16 Nov. 1656; and Beulah, 16 Nov. 1658; beside Daniel, 28 Jan. 1664; and his w. d. 3 days aft. He favor. the Quakers, and not a few of his desend. adhere to them. DANIEL, Sandwich, s. of the preced. m. 1686, Deborah Dillingham, had Samuel, b. 12 Oct. 1690, and prob. others JOHN, Sandwich, had m. in Eng. Deborah, d. of Rev. Stephen Bachiler, and had at least three ch. Daniel, John, and Stephen, perhaps others, bef. cross, the ocean, tho. in wh. yr. that was is uncert. but in 1643 the s. are all enroll. among those able to bear arms. as in Geneal. Reg. IV. 257, is seen; so that the youngest must have been b. bef. 1628. In rec. of Yarmouth is read "Old goody Wing bur. 31 Jan. 1692," wh. by Otis is refer. with prob. to w. of this first John. JOHN, Sandwich 1643, may have been of Yarmouth 1648, when Col. Rec. says his s. as if he then had but one, "was drown. in the snow a. 11 Dec." of that yr. and it is seen that he had Ephraim, b. 30 May preced. may be. he wh. perish. in the snow; and again, Ephraim, 2 Apr. 1649, bur. 10 Dec. foll. unless this were s. of Daniel; Joseph, 2 Sept. 1650; Ananias; Susanna; Osiah; and John. He was b. in Eng. br. of Daniel, and outliv. him. He had been at Lynn 1638, there perhaps found first w. of unkn. name, but he took later w. Miriam, d. of Stephen Dean, had no ch. by her, and d. 1699. His wid. d. 1703. Susanna m. William P ------, and d. 2 Aug. 1717; and Osiah m. a Turner. JOHN, Sandwich, s. of the preced. d. 1683, leav. one ch. whose name is unkn. as also that of his w. and date of m. JOHN, Rochester, perhaps s. of Daniel, as he came from Sandwich, had Stephen, b. 5 Sept. 1684; Joseph, 23 Dec. 1686; Deborah, 15 Oct. 1688, d. soon; John, 1 Mar. 1690; Hannah, 10 Jan. 1692; Daniel, 8 Feb. 1694; Deborah, again, 23 Feb. 1696; Desire, 3 Feb. 1700; and Samuel, 12 Nov. 1704. JOHN, Boston, shopkeep. s. of Robert of the same, ar. co. 1671, of wh. he was capt. 1693, m. Joshabeth, d. of James Davis of the same, had John, b. 14 Aug. 1660, d. young; Joanna, 4 Sept. 1662, d. young; Sarah, 3 May 1664, d. soon' Sarah, again, 9 Feb. 1666; Joshabeth, 15 Dec. 1667; Ebenezer, 15 Oct. 1669; Elizabeth 19 Sept. 1671; Robert, 8 Sept. 1673; John, again, 7 Aug. 1678; and Joanna, again, 25 Nov. 1680. He was a very thrifty man, so early as 1674 mak. bond to Samuel Shrimpton for £4,200. secur. by Castle tavern near the midst of the town, and other est. of wh. part was near the common, and this mortg. was disch. in three yrs. and he d. 22 Feb. 1703. His will of 24 Feb. 1702, pro. 12 Mar. of next yr. wh. may be seen in Vol. XV. 122, names w. s. Robert, John, and ano. wh. is strange to me. Cord, beside the ds. Sarah Tomlin, and Elizabeth Dowell, and gr.ch. James Dowell, Sarah and Thomas Tomlin, of none of wh. can I learn any thing. JOSEPH, Sandwich, s. of the sec. John, [[595]] m. 12 Apr. 1672, Jerusha Mayhew, but of wh. she was d. is not read, and my conject. calls her of the sec. Thomas; and he d. 3 May 1679. JOSEPH, Woburn, freem. 2 Oct. 1678, sw. again 15 Oct. 1679, unless two of the same name in that litle town were then inhab. wh. I do not suppose; but the ghost of Secr. Rawson would refuse to appear, if summon. back from the other world to explain the suspicious conditon of his rec. here or other parts. ROBERT, Boston, came in the Francis, 1634, from Ipswich, aged 60, with w. Judith, 43, wh. d. soon, and by w. Joan had John, the preced. b. 22 July 1637; Hannah, 14 Feb. 1640; Jacob, 31 July 1642; all bapt. 16 Oct. 1642; Elizabeth b. July 1644; Joseph, 13 Oct. bapt. 1 Nov. 1646; and Benjamin, bapt. 18 Feb. 1649, a. 7 days old; in 1647 prays the Gen. Ct. for relief, being above 80 yrs. old, with nothing to live on, and four small ch. obtain favor of being releas. from fine, as in Col. Rec. II. 216 appears. How fast he had grown old, is quite observa. and may render as tender as to relators of similar mistakes; and d. leav. four ch. as by the rec. of Prob. Ct. appears in the autumn of 1651; but wh. one of the ch. had dec. is not seen; yet it was not that one, whose bapt. is unkn. His will was nuncup. Elizabeth m. 3 Apr. 1661, John Walley. SAMUEL, Sandwich, s. of Daniel. STEPHEN, Sandwich 1643-59, br. of Daniel b. in Eng. had, by w. Oziah Dillingham, Deborah, b. 10 Oct. 1648; and Mercy, 13 Nov. 1650. His w. d. 29 Apr. 1654, and he m. 7 Jan. foll. Sarah Briggs, but I do not ascert. the name of f. had Stephen, 2 Sept. 1656; Sarah, 5 Feb. 1658; John, 22 or 25 Sept. 1661; Abigail, 1 May 1664; Elisha, 2 Feb. 1669; Ebenezer, 11 July 1671; and Matthew, 1 Mar. 1674. His w. d. 26 Mar. 1689, and he d. 24 Apr. 1710. WINGATE, or WINGET, JOHN, Dover 1660, had gr. of ld. there 1658, m. Mary, d. of Hatevil Nutter of the same, had Ann, b. 18 Feb. 1668; John, 13 July 1670; Caleb; Moses; Mary; Joshua, 2 Feb. 1680; and Abigail; but most of these latter five were by ano. w. for he had m. bef. May 1677, Sarah, wid. of the sec. Thomas Canney; was freem. 1672, and he d. 9 Dec,. 1687. Ann m. Israel Hodgdon of Portsmouth. His will of 12 Mar. 1684, was pro. 23 Mar. 1688, under the Andros rule, wh. brot. it to Boston. Not the least of may cause of malediction against the usurp. Gov. and his subord. Walter Barefoote, is, that, under their admin. this name bec. pervert. into Windiat, to mislead honest, unskeptical Farmer. See Windiat. JOHN, Dover, s. of the preced. by w. Ann had Mary, b. 3 Oct. 1691; John, 10 Apr. 1693; Ann, 2 Feb. 1695; Sarah, 17 Feb. 1697; Moses, 27 Dec. 1698; Samuel, 27 Nov. 1700; Edmund, 27 Feb. 1703; Abigail, 2 Mar. 1705; Elizabeth 3 Feb. 1707; Mehitable, 14 Nov. 1709; Joanna, 6 Jan. 1712; and Simon, 2 Sept. 1713; and d. 1715. * JOSHUA, Hampton, br. of the preced. m. 9 [[596]] Nov. 1702, Mary, eldest d. of the sec. Henry Lunt, had Paine, b. 19 Sept. 1703, H. C. 1723 (wh. was. f. of Hon. Paine, b. 14 May 1639, H. C. 1759, that long stood the oldest surv. in the Catal. and d. at Stratham, 7 Mar. 1838); sarah, 8 Dec. 1705; Mary, 14 June 1708; Joshua, 7 Sept. 1710; Jane, 12 July 1712; Abigail and Ann, tw. June 1715; Martha, 30 Mar. 1718; Love, 4 Apr. 1720; Elizabeth 21 Nov. 1722; and John, 24 Jan. 1725, H. C. 1744. He was rep. 1722 and aft. head of one of the comp. at the conquest of Cape Breton 1745, was aft. a col. and d. 9 Feb. 1769; and his wid. d. 27 May 1772, aged 90. OLIVER, from Bridgetown, Eng. Farmer says, was cast away at the Isle of Shoals in 1664, and gives such good authority as Coffin, for the relat. A mistake in geogr. of this sort, is not lightly to be imput. to the latter of these writers, and still less to the former; but it can hardly be doubt. that he should have writ. Barbadoes instead of Eng. for Bridgetown is the chief mart of that island, and no place of the name is found in Britain. It is almost equal to that of the writer in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 86, wh. would correct the descript. of the bark Bachelor from London, of thirity-five tons, giv. by Winthrop in his Hist. I. 173, to the bark in wh. Lion Gardiner came, 1635, when the Gov. as in his orig. MS. any one sees, calls her "a small Norsey bark," meaning a Norwegian built, as to me it seemed, while by the writer it is shown, that one of the patentees of Conn. wh. fitted out this bark dwelt at Nosely, Leicesterhshire, in the very centre of Eng.

Moseley in the war against Philip, perhaps suffer. eno. to cause his d. 10 Jan. 1684, aged 28 as the gr.st. tells in Geneal. Reg. IV. 65, tho. monstrous perversion gives the name Winshad, and wait. for correct. until IX. 328. But this name as well as that of Wensley is oft. misrepresent. by Winslow; and the Malden rec. seem to me abundant in this mislead. Full as oft. may the wrong be prov. as the right, if the rec. faithful. copies (as I have the best testimony other than that of my own eyes), be turn. to in Geneal. Reg. X. 162, 4, 233, 4, 7, and 9, when seven times the occurence is seen, where right of three and wrong of four is by me fully believed. In the transcript. made for Geneal. Reg. VI. 335-8, wherein the scribe fell into mistake as to the name of every month in the whole list nearly, he found, I suppose, the handwriting of this name where it was earliest insert. "Mary Winslade, of John Winslad -- 27, 11, 59," utterly illegib. and therefore omit. it wholly. WINSLEY, See Wensley. WINSLOW, EDWARD, Plymouth, eldest s. of Edward, b. at Droitwich, Co. Worcester, 18, bapt. 20 Oct. 1594, as Belknap, Am. Biogr. II. 281, gives the yr. but an ancient bible, erron. said to have been brot. by him, has a list of the ch. of his f. in wh. all the dates of bapt. purport to be insert. makes it 1595, yet my suspicion of a slight error was raised when observ. that 20 Oct. was Sunday in the earlier yr. and Monday in the foll. Baylies, II. 17, holds to the former yr. and the careful [[599]] authority of Dr. Young in his notes on Chron. of the Pilgr. 46, counts the same, tho. 274 he adopts the later yr. on the faith of "extr. from the rec. of St. Peter's ch. in that place" as foll. 1595, Oct. 20, bapt. Edward, s. of Edward Winslow, b. the previous Friday, adding wh. was the 19th. Whose blunder this was, is immater. Friday bef. 20 Oct. 1595 was the 17th. But for the yr. it might seem more desirab. that should be mark. than the day, and perhaps, tho. not prob. it may be as the informant of Dr. Young gave it, mak. the m. of his parents Nov. 1594. On the first sight of this bible, pasted to its left hand cover is found the traditionary story of what is call. "Family Record," as in Gen. Rec. IV. 298, the mind instantly rejects the right to such honor, inasmuch as the whole rec. was evident. made at once, tho. entries for eleven yrs. 1595-1606, purport to be expressed; and secondly, the handwriting is manifestly of four generations later than the Govnr's. father (who only ought to have made such rec.) could have written it; and furthermore the age of the vol. (tho. early part of the old Test. is lost, and the latter part of the new) is apparent. to a practised eye, at least one hudnred and forty yrs. later than the first child's b. No great value attaches to such MS. and it has been, in more than three or four places, correct. by erasures and interlin. prob. from presum. transcripts of the Eng. parish rec. But modern tradit. gives a glorious myth to this bible, that may be really of the time of George I. tho. to me it seems more likely an imprint under George II. as if it were in the Mayflower, brot. by Edward in his first voyage, at least a century bef. the paper was made. He had fallen into comp. on a tour in Holland, a. 1617, with the band of puritans at Leyden, and was led to join them, there m. 16 May 1618, Elizabeth Barker, when the Dutch rec. calls him printer of London, came with her in the little vessel from Delfthaven over to Eng. for embark. in the Mayflower from Southampton, and she d. 24 Mar. aft. the land. at P. He had five in his fam. on reach. the shore, George Soule, Elias Story, and Ellen More, count. with hims. and w. but Story and More, as well as his w. d. in short season aft. the end of that fatal voyage. On 12 May foll. he m. Susanna, wid. of Willaim White, wh. had been his compan. in the ship, and wh. dec. only thirty-one days earlier than Winslow's w. This was the first. m. in N. E. as had in Dec. preced. been first the b. of her s. Peregrine, at Cape Cod, bef. reach. P. By the sec. w. he had, bef. the div. of cattle in 1627, Edward, and John, both d. young; Edward, again, b. 1629; and Elizabeth wh. m. Robert Brooks, and next, 22 July 1669, capt. George Curwin of Salem. For his high public spirit, wh. took him, in the serv. of his country, over to Eng. 1623, and four or five times more, besides the freq. excurs. that were req. of him to Kennebeck, and all the adj.

Bradford closes his Hist. with regret for his long abs. Seven yrs. later, Cromwell, the great projector of designs to overthrow the Spanish power in the West Indies, fitted out large naval and milit. forces under adm. Penn and gen. Venables, against Hispaniola; and (with his extraord. insight into human charact. almost equal to the skill with wh. he conceal. his own) as he had some ground for suspect. the loyalty of both, nam. three commiss. with control. authority, of wh. our Gov. W. was the head. He d. of fever, exasperat. prob. by the ill success of the expedit. 8 May 1654; and his wid. d. 1 Oct. 1680, at the N. E. home in Marshfield, where he had left her. EDWARD, Salisbury, the rep. at Gen. Ct. 7 Mar. 1644, as giv. in Col. Rec. II. 54, must have been Wensley. EDWARD, Boston, s. of the first John, by w. Sarah Hilton, perhaps d. of the first William, had John, b. 18 June 1661; Sarah, 10 Apr. 1663; and Mary, 30 Apr. 1665; and by w. Elizabeth sec. d. of the sec. Edward Hutchinson, had Edward, 1 Nov. 1669; Catharine, 2 June 1672; Elizabeth 22 Mar. 1674; and Ann, 7 Aug. bapt. 8 Dec. 1678; beside ano. d. whose name is not in the fam. tradit. found, 31 July 1675. He was a mariner, and d. early, for his will of 8 Nov. 1680, pro. 1 Feb. 1683, is in our Vol. VI. 418. It gives w. Elizabeth if she cont. wid. use of al his est. for life, but if she m. then one third only, and the other two thirds in equal portions to his ch. exc. that ea. of the two s. should have double shares. GILBERT, Plymouth, third br. of Gov. Edward, with wh. he came in the Mayflower, 1620, had lot in the div. of lds. 1624, but none in the 1627 div. of cattle, so that perhaps he went home bef. that act; tho. Dr. Young, Chron. of Pilgr. 275, thinks he went ot Portsmouth. But the indisputab. word of Bradford (in Hist. since discovered), 454, shows that he went to Eng. and there d. bef. 1650. ISAAC, Charlestown, s. of the first John, m. 14 Aug. 1666, Mary, youngest d. of secr. Increase Newell; and his w. was rec. of the ch. 23 Feb. 1668, had Parnel, b. 14 Nov. 1667, bapt. 1 Mar. foll.; and Isaac, 22, bapt. 24 July 1670, d. next mo. as did the f. wh. went in July to Jamaica. His will of 25 Aug. made three, pro. four days aft. provid. for w. ch. and the one unb. when he left home. * JOB, Freetown, s. of Kenelm, was rep. 1686, for the Col. of Plymouth, and in 1692, for Mass. under the chart. of William and Mary. At the break. out of the Ind. war, June 1675, his ho. at Swansey, wh. he had inhab. eight or nine [[601]] yrs. was burnt by the enemy. Job had James, b. 9 May 1687, and other childr. prob. bef. and aft. * JOHN, Plymouth, br. of the first Edward, said to have been b. Apr. 1597, on Saturday bef. his bapt. 18th, but I suspect an error of a day, came in the Fortune, 1623, m. a. 1627, Mary, d. of James Chilton. She had come in the Mayflower, and in her favor circulates the ridicul. tradit. that she was the first of Eng. parentage that leapt on Plymouth rock, but the worthless glory is equally well or ill claim. for John Alden, for neither of them is entitled to that merit. By her nine ch. at P. were count. of wh. the exact day or mo. of b. is not found in any one case, but approxim. to date is prob. as well as also to some line of succession; Susanna, wh. m. Robert Latham; Mary, b. 1630, wh. m. 16 Jan. 1651, Edward Gray; Edward, a. 1634; Sarah, wh. m. 15 Aug. 1660, Miles Standish, next, 1665, Tobias Payne, and last, Richard Middlecot, and so happy as to bear ch. to the two latter; John; Joseph; Samuel, 1641; Isaac, 1644; and Benjamin, 12 Aug. 1653. For this, I have partly foll. Russell's Guide to P. 240; and from him we learn that the last ch. d. bef. m. He was rep. 1653 and two yrs. more.

Josiah's s. and his niece Elinor Baker, d. of Kenelm W. For this I have only ref. to Dean's Hist. of Scituate; but perhaps he gives the name of Harris's d. wrong, and I am sure that he is mistak. in mak. the w. of Miles Standish ano. d. of Kenelm. His wid. d. 1679; and her will of 31 July 1676, pro. 24 July 1679, wh. may be seen in VI. 300, well provides for s. John, d. Sarah Middlecot, with her ch. William Payne, d. Susanna Latham, with her ch. Susanna L. and the gr.ch. Ann Gray. JOHN, Boston, s. of the preced. merch. by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 22 May 1669; and Ann, 7 Aug. 1670, wh. prob. d. young. He had sec. w. Judith, but d. early, mak. his will 3 Oct. 1683, pro. nine days aft. as in Vol. VI. 435, in wh. he gives w.

JONATHAN, Marshfield, only s. of the first Josiah, m. Ruth, d. of William Sargeant [[602]] of Barnstable, had John, b. 1664, as Miss Thomas in Memor. 29 tells; but we do not learn whether he had more ch. and the rec. of M. shows, that he was bur. 8 Sept. 1676, within a yr. and 9 mos. aft. his f.

He was rep. 1643 (not as Farmer in MS. had confer. the honor on his neph. Josiah in the next line aft. tell. of his b. a. 1629), beside 1645, 7, and sev. later yrs. certain, 59 and 60.

Of the time of m. or b. of his ch. or bapt. of them, I have not heard, and this might seem strange, when the rec. shows that he and his w. Mary, d. of Col.

His f. d. early in 1623, and was bur. [[609]] 28 Mar. but this s. was sev. yrs. bef. lord of the manor of G. as the f. had been, and patron of the ch. Educat. as he was in the moderate princip. of the puritans in ch. and state, he naturally felt the sympathy for the settlem. of this part of America, widely diffus. with their relig. sentim. in all the E. coast of the mother country, and was engag. at the meeting for the good cause, at Cambridge, 26 Aug. 1629, when Sir Richard Saltonstall, Dudley, Johnson, Pyncheon, Vassal, Humfrey, Colbron, Nowell, and others unit. with him to bind themseles, in the presence of God, to embark the foll. spring, "to pass the seas to contin. and inhab. in N. E. provided" that "THE WHOLE GOVERNM. TOGETHER WITH THE PATENT FOR THE SAID PLANTA. BE FIRST BY AN ORDER OF CT. LEGALLY TRANSFER. AND ESTABL. TO REMAIN WITH US AND OTHERS WH. SHALL INHAB. UPON THE SAID PLANTA." In pursuance of this design, wh. had first been project. by Gov. Cradock, and at the gen. meet. of the comp. in London, on 28 July preced. submit. "NOT TO CONTIN. THE GOVERNM. IN SUBORDIN. TO THE COMP. HERE, AS NOW IT IS," the vote of the whole body of the Corpo. on 29 Aug. aft. at London was adopt. On 20 Oct. Cradock and the other officers under the chart. resign. and "upon serious deliberat." in the nominat. of Winthrop, Saltonstall, Johnson, and Humfrey for Gov.

On p. 70 is the rec. of the LAST meet. of Assist. in Eng. when, as at all intermd. ones, Winthrop presid. and this was held on board the Arbella, 23 Mar. 1629-30, at Southhampton; but the same vol. in the very next sentence shows that the FIRST meet. or "Court of Assist. was holden 23 Aug. 1630 at Charlton," no doubt in the "great house;" and it is equal. clear that the same man is there act. as Gov. So precisely, in the next foll. forty sessions of Assist. of Gen. Ct. Winthrop sat, by annual choice, as Gov. until the elect. in 1634, of Thomas Dudley. He, of course, was the next Gov. of Mass. Col. aft. Cradock, wh. never came over; and, therefore, W. was the earliest Charter Gov. here. Very strange might seem the error of the Hist. of Boston, by Mr. Drake, so valuab. for its many marks of industry, p.94, in mak. the elect. of W. as Gov. on board the Arbella, at Charlestown, on Monday, 23 Aug. aft. arr. tho. Prince, the judic. annalist, had giv. caution to all readers ninety-eight yrs. bef. of the mistake of capt. Johnson in this very point. See Hale's ed. of Prince, 314. This error our Hist. of Boston would sanctify, without consider. first, that the Arbella was this day prob. half [[610]] way across the ocean on her return voyage; or, sec. that the election must, by chart. be made on the last Wednesday of Easter term, whereas this was almost the last Monday of Trinity; or, final. and especial. that this was not a court of elections at all, but a Court of Assist. the rec. being plain eno. It ought, however, in part, to excuse this blunder, to be noted, that this section of Mr. Drake's Hist. was issued in Jan. 1853, and the first vol. of Col. rec. (tho. accessib. bef. in MS. to everybody) came from the press in the latter part of the same yr.

To close this article without giv. extr. from docum. found by me in a governm. office in London 1842, a print. in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 323, would be ungrateful.

On this side of the water he had very import. serv. in direct. as Gov. a new planta. for Lord Say and Seal, his puritan friend, and other gr. associates, at the mouth of Conn. riv. By the first w. no ch. is heard of, but the sec. had Elizabeth bapt. at Boston, 3 July 1636, tho. the copy of town rec (too oft. suppos. orig.) says she was b. 24 of the same; Fitz-John, b. 14 Mar. 1638, perhaps bapt. at Ipswich; Lucy, 28 Jan. bapt. 2 Feb. 1640; Waitstill, 27 Feb. bapt. 6 Mar. 1642; Mary, bapt. 15 Sept. 1644, a. nine days old; all at Boston. He went to found New London, 1645, and carr. his fam. next yr. had there Martha, b. 1646; Margaret; and Ann. Yet the people of Mass. chos. him constant. one of the Assist. thro. that yr. and three foll. and once or twice he took the o. for the office; but in 1647 had been commiss. to execute justice under Conn. jurisdict. tho. not adm. a freem. of that col. bef. 1650, and at the elect. in 1651, was chos. first of the Assist. By annual choice of the people he was made Gov. from May 1657 every yr. till his d. (for wh. purpose their constitut. that permit. no man to be Gov. two yrs. in success. was alter.) even tho. sent in May 1661, to present the congratul. address to the k. wh. he had dr. up, together with petit. for chart. wh. by his judicious agency was obt. 23 Apr. 1662, and by him brot. in Sept. By this very valua. instrum. of liberal privileges, the two Cols. of Conn. and New Haven, were made one Col. At London he was assoc. in the foundat. of the Royal Soc. Oft. he was one of the Congress of the N. E. Colon. and his peculiar sagacity was need. there for gr. affairs, as it had been much tried in the intrigues for so small matter as to draw him from Hartford, aft. he had twice been made head of the Col. to the humbler from jurisdict. of New Haven; as is seen by Davenport's curious letters in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 21-25. Ano. visit to Eng. in 1675, to obtain from the crown some redress for the vexatious interfer. of Sir Edmund Andros with the liberties of Conn. was in project by him, but the gr. Ind. war prevent. and on 5 Apr. of the next yr. at the meeting of the N. E. congress in Boston, he d. His w. had d. 24 Nov. 1672. Of his will nothing special. deserves notice, but that it was made in his illness, two days bef. his dec. that Rev. Thomas Thacher was one of the two witnesses, that it was pro. 27 July foll. and made all the seven ch. excors. giv. two ninths to ea. of the sons, and one to ea. of the ds. abatem. to be made for the advances to Elizabeth and Lucy, ea. in possessn. of good farms.

STEPHEN, Boston, fourth s. of first Gov. John, but first by his third w. came with his f. 1630, in the Arbella, adm. of our ch. 16 Mar. 1634, and freem. 7 Dec. 1636, when only 17 yrs. old, was appoint. in 1639 by the Ct. to record things," in 1642 obtain. leave from the Gen. Ct. to go to Eng. but did not for three or four yrs. avail hims. of the gr. was ar. co. 1644, rep. in 1644 for Portsmouth. In Eng. he was quite succesful in acquir. distinct. both milit. and politic. was made lead of a regim. and so much trusted by Cromwell, that he design. it is said, to appoint. him successor to Major-Gen. Harrison, when he thot. good to send that fellow laborer to prison, and direct. one of his subordinate places in Scotland to return Winthrop as a mem. of one of his pretended parliam. those skilful architects of ruin that did nothing but build up anarchy. But he d. bef. the restorat. effect. by Monk, in whose army he was then serv. and might have gain. favor under the crown. He had early m. at Boston, Judith, sis. of Col. William Rainsborough, had Stephen, b. 7 Nov. bapt. 9 Dec. 1644, prob. d. 1647; and John, 24, bapt. 31 May 1646, wh. also prob. d. young; ano. Stephen was b. to him at Groton in Eng. 13 May 1651; but in his will he styles hims. of James Street, Westminster. He had three ds. Judith, w. of Richard Hancock; Margaret, m. Henry Ward, and next, Capt. Edmund Willey; and Joanna; but it may seem prob. that they were b. in Eng. à WAITSTILL, Boston, s. of Gov. John of Conn. with wh. he liv. long, and was one of the commiss. of the N. E. col. in 1672, and in the perilous days in 1675, 6, with his f. m. Mary, d. of William Browne, of Salm, had John, bapt. 12 Oct. 1679, d. soon; John, again, 28 Aug. 1681, H. C. 1700; Elizabeth 11 May 1683, d. soon; William, 7 Dec. 1684; Ann, 28 Nov. 1686; and Joseph, 13 Sept. 1689. He was of the counc. nam. by the crown for Presid. Joseph Dudley in 1685, and for Sir Edmund Andros in 1686, and join heartily in his overthrow; and by the selfform. counc. of safety he was put at the head of the milit. force, chos. an Assist. in 1692, under the old form of governm. ten days bef. the arr. of Sir. William Phips with the new chart. In this he was made by the k. one of the counc. and thenceforward by popul. choice was contin. in that place, and also shortly aft. ch. justice of the Prov. appoint. by Gov. to [[614]] his d. 7 Nov. 1717, not as Farmer says, 7 Sept. His first w. d. 14 June 1690, and Willim his s. d. 25 Sept. 1693, and Joseph d. two days aft. as Sewall's Diary shows. He took for sec. w. 13 Nov. 1707, Catharine, d. of Thomas Brattle, wid. of John Eyre, wh. d. 5 Aug. 1725. The s. John bec. disting. was a mem. of the Royal Soc. and left very disting. descend. Among gr. at the coll. Farmer ment. only five s. of a single branch; but it appears by the catal. that eight have been bred at Yale, and eighteen at Harv. WINUS, JOHN, New Haven, m. 1664, Susanna Meylen, d. of a Dutchman, and was perhaps hims. a Dutchman, had John, b. 1 July 1665; and Susanna, 9 Feb. 1667. WISE, HENRY, Guilford, perhaps s. of Joseph of Roxbury, had w. Mary, and two young ch. when he d. early in 1684. His inv. is of 1 Mar. and the names of ch. do not appear. HUMPHREY, Ipswich 1639, had w. Susanna, and ch. Benjamin, Joseph, Emma, Sarah, and Ann, when he d. His wid. m. Samuel Greenfield. JOHN, Ipswich, s. of Joseph of Roxbury, aft. leav. coll. preach. at Branford (whence as chaplain to the soldiers in Jan. 1676, he march. with major Treat for Narraganset), there declin. invita. to sett. and preach. at Hatfield 1677 and 8, took the o. of fidel. in Feb. 1679, and was almost prevail. on to bec. the min. of that inf. town, but went to Ipswich, there was ord. 1682, or 1684, in a new parish, call. Chebacco, now Essex; at H. had m. 5 Dec. 1678, Abigail, d. of Thomas Gardner of Roxbury, had Jeremiah, H. C. 1700, min. of Berwick; Lucy; Joseph; Ammi Ruhami; Mary; Henry, H. C. 1717; and John; but no date is kn. nor whether these wh. outliv. him were the only ones. He was deeply engag. in the controv. raised by Andros's levy of a tax on all the towns of the col. and with his patriotic neighb. Col. Appleton was fin. and imprison. for words spok. in derogat. of the tyranny; and aft. overthrow of the usurp. he was one of the rep. 1689, next yr. one of the chaplains in the illconcoct. expedit. of Sir William Phips against Quebec, and d. 8 Apr. 1725. JOSEPH, Roxbury, serv. George Alcock, as nam. in his will of Dec. 1640, had perhaps been brot. by him, when he came th third time, 1636, from Eng. m. 3 Dec. 1641, Mary Thompson, as the town rec. tells, but whose d. she was is unheard, yet it may have been of William of Braintree, had Joseph, b. 1 Apr. 1643; Jeremiah, of whose b. the date is not seen (but the mo. hav. join. the ch.), both of her ch. were bapt. 24 May 1646; Sarah, 19, bapt. 26 Dec. 1647; Mary, bapt. 3 Feb. 1650; John, bef. ment. 15 Aug. 1652, H. C. 1673; Henry, 4 Mar. 1655; Bethia, 26 Apr. 1657; Benjamin, 7 Oct. 1660, wh. d. early in Dec. foll. says the ch. rec. but the rec. of the town, that omits the b. makes up for the deficiency by insert. the d. under 1664, on the principle [[615]] of better late than never; and William, 9 Mar. 1662, whose b. is not found; Jeremiah, again, d. 1678; was a butcher late in his days, and d. 12 Sept. 1684; and his wid. d. 4 Aug. 1693. His d. Sarah m. a. 1666, Stephen Williams of R.; Mary m. 30 June 1669, Caleb Lamb. JOSEPH, Roxbury, s. of the preced. had Abigail, b. 20 June 1666; but wh. was his w. or when she d. are unkn. He d. 30 Jan. 1685. A wid. Jane Wise d. at Roxbury, Apr. 1637, perhaps mo. of Joseph the first; but wh. was that John, Cambridge, d. 9 Sept. 1644, is beyond the hope of certainty. NICHOLAS, freem. of Mass. 1645, no more heard of. THOMAS, Saco 1636, is nam. in Folsom, 33. WISEMAN, JAMES, Braintree 1639, had James, b. 8 Oct. 1640; and Mercy or Mary, 28 Mar. 1643; rem. to Boston, there by w. Dorothy had Joseph, 24 Dec. 1655. and Sarah, 18 Sept. 1657; perhaps these were by ano. w. then he at Braintree. He was liv. 1677; and was a brazier. His d. Mary m. 12 June 1660, John Verin. WISWALL, EBENEZER, Newton, youngest s. of Thomas of the same, m. 26 Mar. 1685, Sarah Foster, wid. of Elisha, and d. of Giles Payson, had no ch. was freem. 1675 or 80, as he sw. in both yrs. if we believe the rec. was lieut. and d. 21 June 1691, in his will giv. his est. (aft. the life of w. wh. surv. to 22 Aug. 1714) to John, Oliver, and Samuel, s. of his br. Enoch, and made him, with his brs.-in-law, Samuel Payson and Nathaniel Holmes, excors. ENOCH, Dorchester, eldest br. of the preced. b. in Eng. a tanner, m. 25 Nov. 1657, Elizabeth d. of John Oliver of Boston, the scholar, had John, b. 10 Dec. 1658, bapt. 20 Feb. foll.; Enoch, 10, bapt. 13 Jan. 1661, d. soon; Hannah, bapt. 6 Apr. 1662; Oliver, b. 25, bapt. 29 Jan. 1665; Elizabeth bapt. 21 tho. rec. of b. is 28 Apr. 1667; Esther, b. 28 Dec. 1669, bapt. 2 Jan. 1670; Susanna, 2, bapt. 4 Aug. 1672; Enoch, again, 6, bapt. 11 Apr. 1675, d. young; Mary, 27 Aug. bapt. 2 Sept. 1677; Samuel, 2, bapt. 21 Sept. 1679, H. C. 1701, min. of Edgartown; and Enoch and Ebenezer, tw. b. and bapt. 25 Feb. 1683; and d. 28 Nov. 1706, aged 73. His wid. d. 31 May 1712, aged 75, says the gr.-st. of wh. we kn. the mistake, as she was under 72 yrs. and 3 mos. Susanna m. Edward Breck. ICHABOD, Duxbury, brs. of the preced. had ent. H. C. but left in 1657 with the same cause of dissat. as carr. away Brinsmead and others, was some yrs. employ. perhaps at Pemaquid, there with a large part of the inhab. took o. of fidel. 1674, in 1676 was ord. at D. m. Priscilla, d. of William Peabody of that place, had Mary, b. 4 Oct. 1680; Hannah, 22 Feb. 1682; Peleg, 5 Feb. 1684, H. C. 1702; Perez, 22 Nov. 1686, prob. d. young; Mercy; Priscilla; and Deborah. He was sent 1689 to Eng. to procure new chart. for the Col. and stood stoutly for its independ. but was overpow. by the name and influence of Mass. yet he [[616]] ascrib. not the disappoint. of just expecta. as a train. politician might have done, to any more cause than the rashness and imprudence of Mather, wh. had craftily alarm. the fear of Gov. Hinckley by suggest. of the peril that Plymouth jurisdict. might be annex. to New York. He d. 23 July 1700, and his wid. d. 3 June 1714, aged 71. Of his will, very judic. in bestowing, upon w. and five ch. the eldest d. w. of Elisha Wadsworth having been provid. for at m. Francis Jackson, Esq. in addit. to very many other favors, gave me a copy. JOHN, Dorchester, must have come in 1634 or earlier, as he was made deac. on the gather. in Aug. 1636 of the new ch. at D. for Richard Mather, when the larger part of the first mem. had gone to Conn. with Warham. He brot. w. Margaret, d. prob. of Thomas Smith of London. He was freem. 14 Mar. 1639, rep. 1646, and oft. aft. selectman in 1648 and bef. and aft. went to Eng. (Mr. Clapp in Hist. of D. says) 1652, and in few yrs. aft. his coming again, rem. to Boston, was an ironmonger, and gen. trader, made rul. elder at the first ch. and d. 16 Aug. 1687, aged 85 or 6 yrs. From the numb. and dates of many of his ch. I feel confid. that he had sec. w. as Benjamin, bapt. 15 Apr. 1649; Henry, 9 June 1650; Martha, b. 23 Feb. bapt. 14 Mar. 1652; Esther, 7, bapt. 11 June 1654, prob. d. young; Ruth, bapt. prob. 25 May 1656; but afr. most patient investigat. Mr. Clapp is sure only of portion of these, as ch. of John, and thinks the two first nam. may have belong. to his br. Thomas. No great value attaches to the decision, as neither liv. long. But John, s. of John was also bapt. 15 Apr. 1649. By his will of 9 July preced. his dec. pro. 1 Sept. foll. are nam. only s. John; ds. Hannah Overman, the eldest ch. w. of Thomas, wh. had first, in 1656, been w. of Mahaleel Munnings; Deborah, bapt. 23 May 1641, wh. m. a Cutter, as Clapp in Hist. of Dorchester, 138, reads, but I doubt, bec. d. Deborah seems ment. apart from d. Cutter; d. Fisher, whose h. is call. Daniel, tho. the reason is not seen, and perhaps the name is wrong; d. Johnson, wh. was Rebecca, perhaps the eldest, bapt. 2 Dec. 1638, sec. w. in Oct. 1662, of Matthew; d. Lydia Ballard, bapt. 13 Apr. 1645, with whose h. I am unacq.; d. Mary Edmunds, whose h. is unkn.; and d. Mountford, wh. prob. was Ruth, w. of Henry. JOHN, Boston, s. of the preced. m. 5 May 1685, Hannah Baker, was freem. 1690, liv. perhaps some time at Dorchester, where his w. d. 18 Sept. of that yr. had 28 yrs. NOAH, Newton, s. of Thomas of the same, m. 10 Dec. 1664, Theodosia, d. perhaps eldest, of deac. John Jackson of the same, had Thomas, b. 29 Apr. 1666, d. young; Elizabeth 30 Sept. 1668; Caleb; Margaret, 1 Mar. 1672; Hannah, 1 Apr. 1674; Mary; Esther, 1 Apr. 1678; Sarah, 5 Jan. 1681; and Thomas, again, 29 Apr. 1686; was freem. 1685, capt. in 1690, when, march. to relieve Casco, in hard fight, [[617]] 6 July, with Ind. he was slain, near Wheelwright's pond, in Lee, N. H. In the Magnalia, VII. 75, may be read an acco. of this action, embellish. as usual, in style, but it is silent a. the d. of his s. John at the same battle, and we otherwise hear of no such s. I reject. the tradit. Forty-three yrs. later, a gr. of ld. in Lunenburg, was extorted for these serv. from the tardy gratitude of the Province. OLIVER, Dorchester, s. of Enoch the first of the same, m. 1 June 1690, Sarah Baker, had Thomas; Enoch; Ebenezer; Oliver; Ichabod; John; and Samuel; and d. 28 Nov. 1706. His. wid. d. 31 May 1712, aged 73. THOMAS, Cambridge, br. of John the first, long dwelt with him at Dorchester, where he sett. 1635, and was a very useful man, bring. w. Elizabeth and s. Enoch, b. prob. in 1635, and perhaps Esther, bapt. here 1635; yet was not freem. bef. 1635; had also, at D. Ichabod, a. 1637, bef. ment.; Noah, bapt. 30 Dec. 1638, says Jackson; Sarah, bapt. prob. 19 Mar. 1643; Ebenezer, 1646; and Elizabeth 15 Apr. 1649. Bef. July 1657 he had rem. to C. and gave his est. at D. to his s. Enoch. When John Eliot, s. of the apostle, was ord. 20 July 1664, the first min. of C. village, W. was made rul. Elder. He took sec. w. late in his days, Isabella Farmer, a wid. from Eng. mo. of Edward Farmer of Billerica, whose maiden name was Barbage, of Great Packington in Co. Warwick, from wh. by one more step of descent, than is giv. in the first art. of Geneal. Reg. I. came the diligent, judicious, and admired John Farmer, kn. thro. the length and breadth of N. E. as the author of the Geneal. Reg. of the first sett. print. at Lancaster 1829. W. d. at Newton, wh. had been incorp. from C. some yrs. bef. on 6 Dec. 1683; and his wid. d. at her son's in Billerica, 21 May 1686. Esther m. 16 May 1655, William Johnson of Woburn; Mary m. Samyel Payson of Dorchester, says Jackson, but she d. 25 May 1727 in 59th yr. if the gr.-st. tells the truth, and ano. fate was that of this d. of Wiswall; and Sarah m. Nathaniel Holmes. WITCHFIELD, JOHN, Dorchester, came in the Lion, arr. 16 Sept. 1632, freem. 11 June 1633, rem. with first sett. to Windsor, where his w. d. 26 Apr. 1659. He m. next, 1662, Margaret, wid. of Edward Goffe of Cambridge, but had no ch. by either. The sec. w. d. a. the end of June 1669 at Cambridge, where she had, 21 Apr. 1663, made her will, giving a piece of plate to W. her h. small legacies to the childr. of Samuel and Lydia, two ch. of her former h. by his first w. to her d.-inlaw Elizabeth Hayward, wh. is unkn. to me, to Rev. Jonathan Mitchell, Mr. Samuel Shepard, and Thomas Fanning, ea. £5. to the childr. of her sis. Jane, first w. of Edwuard Winship, of wh. Joanna, the youngest, was to have double portion; but the larger part of her est. was for her own ds. Hannah and Abiah Goffe. This will was dr. by Thomas Danforth, [[618]] witness. by him, Thomas Chisholme, and Caleb, that solitary aborig. gr. of H. C. 1665, wh. d. next yr. bef. he could be call. to verify his signat. wh. is very handsome. He was deac. and d. 16 Mar. 1678 at Windsor. The venerable Dr. T. M. Harris, mistook, in his Histor. Disc. 65, this name, and gave it Whitfield. WITHAM, HENRY, Gloucester 1665, s. prob. of Thomas, d. 17 Apr. 1702, had Thomas, b. 1666; Henry, 1668; John, 1670; Samuel, 1672; and Joseph, 1676; by w. Sarah, d. of Morris Somes, wh. he m. 15 June 1665, and she d. 11 May 1689. He m. 23 Oct. 1691, Lydia Griffin, wh. outliv. him only few mos. THOMAS, Gloucester, wh. d. 1653, was, as Mr. Babson thinks, f. of Henry. WITHERDEN, or WYTHERDEN, JOHN, Scituate 1643, rem. to Boston 1659, had a windmill 1654, on the common at Foxhill, by leave of the inhabs. and liv. 1661. WITHERIDGE or WYTHERIDGE, as the ch. rec. has it, EDWARD. Boston, mariner and merch. join. our ch. 24 Feb. 1644, and was made freem. in May foll. See WETHERIDGE. One Mary Witheridge of Salem vill. was arrest. in May 1692, as a witch (Essex Inst. III. 119); but I see no proof, that either the devil or the court prevail. to obt. convict. WITHERS, THOMAS, Kittery, came prob. with Neal, 1631, as one of his comp. for the patentee John Mason, and so may have liv. first on the W. side of the riv. in 1653 own. the jurisdict. of Mass. and was made a commissnr. the same yr. rep. 1656. WITHIE, ROBERT, aged 20, with Susan, 18, and Mary, 16, prob. his sis. emb. at London, with a Mary With, 62, perhaps the mo. of them all, 11 Sept. 1635, in the Hopewell, Capt. Babb, but I can find no trace of them on our side of the water. WITHINGTON, EBENEZER, Dorchester, s. of Richard of the same. freem. 1690, had w. Mary wh. d. 10 Jan. 1691; but I believe no ch. and d. 11 Feb. 1729, in 78th yr. and by his sec. w.

His wid. d. 20 May 1676. He had good est. and his will of 8 Jan. 1665, div. it among the three ds. and his s. Richard's four s. HENRY, Dorchester, br. of Ebenezer, join. the ch. 2 Jan. 1677, as did his w. Sarah, 7 Nov. 1687. She was d. of Henry Leadbetter, m. 12 June 1684, had Sarah, b. 13 Apr. 1688. Henry, 7 Sept. 1686; and Silence, posthum. 19 Apr. 1688. He was freem. 1677, and d. 2 Feb. 1688. JOHN, Dorchester, s. of Richard of the same, freem. 1673, by w.

His wid. m. 13 Feb. 1696, James White, outliv. him, and d. 19 Nov. 1722, aged 69. JO SEPH, Dorchester, youngest br. of the preced. by w. Deliverance had Henry, b. 26 May 1696; and a d.

Elizabeth d. of Philip Eliot of Roxbury, had John, bapt. 1 July 1649; Ebenezer, 7 Sept. 1651; Henry, 2 Oct. 1653; Elizabeth 24 Aug. 1656, d. young; Philip, b. 26, bapt. 28 Mar. 1659; Constant, 16, bapt. 17 Nov. 1661; Elizabeth again, 16, bapt. 22 Apr. 1666; and Joseph, 15 Sept. 21 June 1668; and d. 22 Dec. 1701, aged perhaps 83 yrs. His wid. d. 18 Apr. 1714. WILLIAM, Newport 1638, on the list of freem. 1655. Sometimes the name is in old rec. is Withrington. WITHMAN, JOHN, Charlestown 1641, whose name is Weightman on the rec. of the ch. 31 July, when he join. as is also that of Susanna, prob. his w. 30 Nov. 1642, freem. 18 May 1642, upon the list of housekeep. 1658, was, by Farmer, suppos. the same as Whitman, tho. in a later day he conject. Whitham. WITT, JOHN, Lynn 1650, was, perhaps, one of the selectmen of Groton 1655, to aid in organiz. town gov. but soon back at L. by w. Sarah had Martha, b. 5 Mar. 1659; Thomas, 25 July 1661; Ebenezer, 6 Apr. 1665, d. in few wks.; and others. He d. 2 Dec. 1675, leav. wid. Sarah, and ch.

JOHN, Lynn, m. 14 June 1676, Elizabeth Baker, had Elizabeth 9 Aug. 1677; John, 3 June 1679; and Mary, 14 Aug. 1681. JONATHAN, Lynn, perhaps br. of the preced. m.

[[620]] WITTEN, MICHAEL, Scarborough, acknowledg. the jurisdict. of Mass. in Oct. 1658. WITTER, JOSIAH, Lynn, s. of William of the same, m. 25 Feb. 1662, Elizabeth Wheeler, had Elizabeth b. 15 Mar. 1663; and Mary, 20 Feb. 1665; may have been at Stonington 1670, perhaps with f. of his w. WILLIAM, Lynn, an early sett. had w. Annis, and ch. Hannah, wh. m. a. 1650, Robert Burden; and Josiah, bef. ment. was troubled as a Bapt. early in 1646 by prosecut. of wh. the substance may be read in Col. Rec. III. 67, but d. 1659, aged 75. His will of 5 Aug. in that yr. mak. w. extrix. nam. s. d. and her h. was not pro. bef. June 1661. It is prob. that Burden stands for Burdett. WITTOMS, PETER, Boston, m. 17 June 1652, Redigan Clark, had Mary, b. 15 Apr. 1653; Elizabeth 26 May 1654, as the ancient copy of rec. says, but the modern copy has it 16, perhaps to conciliate favor for the rec. of her d. 25 May of the same yr.; and Peter, 15 May 1656. WIXAM, or WICKSON, BARNABAS, Eastham, s. of Robert of the same, by w. Sarah had Barnabas, b. 15 Sept. 1693, d. soon, but not, perhaps, so early as Geneal. Reg. VII. 347, makes it; Joshua, 14 Mar. 1695; Lydia; 12 June 1697; Robert, 29 May 1698; and Prince, 2 Dec. 1700. ROBERT, Plymouth 1643; rem. to Eastham, by w. whose name is not seen clear. had Jeremiah, b. 30 Aug. 1655; Titus, 2 Dec. 1657; Elizabeth 29 May 1660; and Martha, whose date is not found; and d. Oct. 1686. Elizabeth m. 28 June 1673, Nathaniel Mayo the sec. of E. WODELL. See Waddell. WOLCOTT, WALCOTT, or WOOLCOT, GEORGE, Windsor 1640, s. of the first Henry, brot. by his f. rem. a. 1650 to Wethersfield, adm. freem. 1657, but d. at W. 1662, or, as is said, 12 Feb. 1664; having by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 1651l; George, 1653; John, 1656; and Mercy, 1659. Very slight acco. is seen of any of this fam. Perhaps George and John may be discern. sometimes at Wethersfield. Mary was infirm, and under guardians; and Elizabeth m. 1686, Gabriel Cornish. HENRY, Dorchester 1630, was b. a. 1578, in the S. part of Somerset sh. at or near Wellington, not far from the edge of Devonsh. and thus, prob. gain. sympathy with the puritans of the W. who project. the voyage of the Mary and John in Mar. of that yr. He was honor. with a commiss. from the crown, as a jutice bef. leav. home, as tradit. tells, and had good landed est. as perhaps may be infer. from a very valua. letter of his br. John, 15 Apr. 1639, print. in Geneal. Reg. II. 373. He desir. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was sw. 1 Apr. 1634. His w. Elizabeth Saunders, m. a. 1607, was his compan. in the traverse of the wilderness to plant the first town, nam. Dorchester, but soon aft. Windsor, on the [[621]] Conn. in Oct. 1635, and outliv. him but few wks. Their ch. Henry, b. a. 1610; George; Christopher; Ann, b. a. 1620; Simon, 1625; and Mary; were all brot. from Eng. He is the first officer. nam. in the rec. of Conn. p. 1, chos. 26 Apr. 1636, constable, and in Apr. 1643 Assist. till his d. was largely engag. in business, and d. 30 May 1655. No will is preserv. His wid. d. 7 or 17 July foll. aged 73, Ann m. Matthew Griswold; and Mary m. 25 June 1646, Job Drake. Of Christopher notice is never seen, but that he d. 7 Sept. 1662. HENRY, Windsor, eldest s. of the preced. b. in Eng. at Tolland near Wiveliscombe, Co. Somerset, m. 8 Nov. 1640, Sarah, d. of that Thomas Newberry or Newbury, wh. was engag. in the migrat. from Dorchester, but prevent. by d. had Henry, b. 6, bapt. 8 Jan. 1643; John, b. 28 Feb. 1646; Samuel, 8 Oct. 1647, prob. d. young; Sarah, 5 July 1649; Mary, 8 Dec. 1651; Hannah, 8 Mar. 1654; Samuel, 16 Apr. 1656; and Josiah, 22 July 1659; was rep. 1655, 6, and 61, Assit. 1662, bef. the com. of the royal chart. of that yr. in wh. Gov. Winthrop had caus. the insert. of his name, and was contin. in the office of Assist. as far as our publish. rec. runs, was of the counc. of war in 1675-6, and d. 12 July 1680. Sarah m. as fam. tradit. tells, Walter Price of Salem; but it should say his s. John; Mary m. James Russell of Charlestown; and Hannah d. at 29 yrs. for wh. tradit. found no h. His wid. d. 16 June 1684. The will of Henry, 21 Sept. 1670, provides for w. and the seven ch. to the ds. all then unm. £250. ea. to Henry, housing and ld. at Tolland Mill, to John, other tenement in Tolland, and notices his est. at Wellington. Other est. he had of large extent on our side of the water in Windsor and Wethersfield; and he was very dilig. in the cultivation. Great sales of fruit trees thro. muh of the region betw. Fairfield on the Sound and Springfield on the bank of the Conn. are spoken of; and Josselyn, wh. went home in the same ship when W. visit. his native ld. in 1671, relates, that W. inform. him that he made 500 hogsheads of cider from his orchard in a yr. What allowance for Josselyn's ciphers should be made may be guessed from his enumera. of the dwellinghouses in Boston, on his earlier visit, wh. Drake, in Hist. 244. fails to explain. HENRY, Windsor, eldest s. of the preced. m. 12 Oct. 1664, Abiah, youngest d. of Edward Goffe of Cambridg, whose wid. had two yrs. bef. m. John Witchfield of W. had Elizabeth b. 27 Aug. 1665; Henry, 13 Apr. 1667, d. soon; Abiah, 1 May 1669; Sarah, 27 Mar. 1671, d. soon; Henry, again, 30 Jan. 1673, wh. d. at 24 yrs.; Sarah, again, 16 Apr. 1676; and Samuel, 26 Mar. 1679; was freem. 1667, and d. 15 Feb. 1710. His wid. whose name is so pervert. in Geneal. Reg. I. 252, and again V. 463, d. 18 June 1717, in her 72d yr. Neither Henry, nor Samuel, wh. d. 1712, had issue, and the male line of this branch ceased. [[622]] HENRY, Windsor, s. of Simon the first of the same, m. 1696, Jane Allen, wh. d. 1702, had, the fam. geneal. says, Henry, b. 1698; Thomas, 1702; Peter; Rachel; and Gideon; but it names no w. and gives no dates, exc. that of his d. Nov. 1746. JOHN, Salem is by tradit. said to have own. the house that Roger Williams sold him, when driv. away in 1635, but no more can be told. JOHN, Cambridge, or Watertown, freem. 4 Mar. 1635, rep. May foll. d. in July 1638, his inv. tak. 17th of that mo. by three of the ch. mem. Rev. George Phillips being one, and the prefix of respect, show that he was a man of esteem. JOHN, Newbury, a carpenter, b. a. 1632, perhaps s. of the first nam. John, m. 20 Nov. 1653, Mary Thorla, prob. d. of Richard of the same, had Mary, b. 1654; Sarah, 23 Aug. 1657; John, 25 Oct. 1660; Joseph, 2 Feb. 1664; Elizabeth 24 Feb. 1667; Martha, 13 Sept. 1670; Lydia, 15 Jan. 1674; and Hannah, 18 Apr. 1679. Perhaps he rem. to Brookfield, and may have been by the Ind. driv. thence in 1689 to die 30 Sept. 1690 at Springfield. In his will he names w. the two. s. and three ds. the elder b. but neither of the younger three wh. were prob. d. He had ld. at Newbury, at Brookfield, and Watertown. JOHN, Windsor, s. of the sec. Henry of the same, propound. for freem. 1670, m. 14 Feb. 1677, Mary, d. of John Chester of Wethersfield, had John, b. 20 Nov. foll.; Henry, 7 Aug. 1679, d. soon; Charles, 3 Sept. 1681; George, 20 Oct. 1683, d. young; and Benjamin; and his w. d. 10 July 1689; by sec. w. m. 22 June 1692, Hannah Nichols of Stamford, had Mary, and he d. 3 Jan. 1713. When the wid. d. is not told, but she with the four ch. had good est. £1300. Mary m. John Eliot of Windsor, gr.s. of the apostle. JOHN, New Haven 1680; a blacksmith, m. 8 Feb. 1684, Sarah Johnson, prob. d. of John of the same, but whether any issue foll. is unkn. When he sold ld. there in 1698 w. Abigail join. in the deed. JOHN, Newbury, s. of John of the same, m. 4 Jan. 1685, Mary Emerson, but Coffin tells no more. JOSEPH, Suffield, br. prob. of the preced. m. 4 Mar. 1686, Rebecca, d. of Launcelot Granger, had Joanna, b. 13 Sept. 1687; Joseph, 30 Aug. 1689; and Hannah, 8 Nov. 1691; the two latter but Springfield; rem. to Brookfield, there the ds. with their mo. were k. by the Ind. when they assault. the town in 1693. JOSIAH, Salem, in an early day m. it is said, Alice, d. of Richard Ingersol, but nothing more can I tell of h. or w. exc. that aft. the name is very oft. giv. with a, for o, in the first syl. JOSIAH, Salem, youngest s. of the sec. Henry, m. Penelope, d. of George Curwin of the same, had Elizabeth b. 30 Mar. 1688, d. at 14 yrs. but her mo. had d. soon aft. b. of her ch. and he m. Mary Treat wh. brot. him nine ch. acc. the fam. rep. in Geneal. Reg. I. 252, tho. wh. she could be, unless one of the ds. of Gov. Robert's mythic. numb. of twenty-one by first w. is hard to find. The [[623]] Gov. had a Mary, but she was bapt. 23 May 1652, too many yrs. bef. the b. of Josiah to have such a platoon; yet it may be that he was happy eno. to have ano. younher of the same name. More important, however, is the file of the ch. Josiah, 21 Dec. 1690, d. in few ds.; Treat, 26 Mar. 1696, d. in few wks.; Thomas, 23 June 1697, d. in few wks.; Mehitable, 3 Aug. 1698, d. at 23 yrs.; Josiah again, 11 July 1700, d. in few ds.; John, 12 Sept. 1702; Elizabeth 1 Apr. 1705, d. at 11 yrs.; Mary, 13 July 1706, d. next wk.; and Treat, again, 9 Oct. 1712. ROGER, Windsor, youngest of Simon of the same, m. 3 Dec. 1702, Sarah, d. of the sec. Job Drake, had Roger, b. 14 Sept. 1704; Elizabeth 10 Apr. 1706; Alexander, 20 Jan. 1708, d. young; Samuel, 9 Jan. 1710, d. young; Alexander, again, 7 Jan. 1712, Y.

C. 1747; and Mary Ann, 1 Jan. 1730. He gain. gr. distinct. was Lieut.-Gov. 1741 to 50, then Gov. for four yrs. and had milit. serv. at the conq. of Louisburg, 1745, in com. of the Col. force, and d. 17 May 1767. SAMUEL, Wethersfield, s. of the sec. Henry, m. 1678, Judith, d. of Samuel Appleton of Ipswich, had Samuel, b. 1679; Gershom, 1680, d. at 2 yrs. Josiah, Feb. 1682; Hannah, 19 Mar. 1684; Sarah, 14 Aug. 1686; Lucy, 16 Oct. 1688; Abigail, 23 Sept. 1690, d. at 24 yrs.; Elizabeth 31 May 1692; and Mary, 14 May 1694; and he d. 14 June 1695, leav. good est. SIMON, Windsor, s. of the first Henry, prob. youngest, b. in Eng. 1625, freem. 1654, was rep. for Simsbury 1671 and 5, m. 1656, Joanna Cook, wh. d. Apr. 1657, and he m. next, 17 Oct. 1661, Martha, sis. of the first William Pitkin, had, says Parsons, in Geneal. Reg. V. 464, five s. and five ds. but the fam. geneal. I. 253, names only for ds. Eliz b. 19 Aug. 1662, wh. m. 8 Dec. 1680, Deniel Cooley of Springfield, and d. 30 Jan. 1707; Martha, 17 May 1664, m. 1686, Thomas Allyn, and d. 7.

His w. d. 3. Aug. 1723, and he d. 3 Aug. 1732. WILLIAM, Windsor, br. of the preced. m. Abia Hawley, perhaps d. of Ephraim of Stratford, had Abia; Lucia; William, b. 21 July 1711; Martha; and Ephraim; and d. 26 Jan. 1749. As in the Winthrop fam. the choice of f. s. and gr.s. in early days to the office of Gov. by popular vote is observ. so in later generat. the Conn. steady habits made Roger and his s. Oliver and gr.s. Oliver their ch. rulers. Twelve of this name had been gr. at Yale, two at Harv. and two at other N. E. coll. in 1834, as is noted by Farmer in MS. WOLFALL, or WOOLFALL, RICHARD, Boston 1677, of wh. I see nothing but that he is nam. in the will of the first Thomas Oliver, 1653, as hav. m. a d. of the testator, then liv. at Muddy riv. now Brookline. WOLFE, or WOOLFE, EDWARD, Lyme 1671. PETER, Salem, freem. 14 May 1634, was so much of a milit. spirit, as hardly to fail of being chos. lieut. in 1646, yet in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VII. 256, with w. Martha, was one of the founders of ch. in Beverly 1667, and d. 6 Dec. 1675. One Susanna W. with sev. others, was order. to be releas. from prison in 1683, but on what grounds they had been arrest. I see not in Vol. V. of our Col. rec. WOLLASTON, the capt wh. form. a tempora. settlem. 1625, wh. aft. short time he abandon. and went to Virg. might hardly seem to deserve a place in this work, were it not for the possibil. that a passeng. of the Planter, from London, ten yrs later, call. Mary Wolhouston, aged 30, may have been seek. the long abs. h. when she came to Boston; tho. more prob. is it that she was w. of a Mr. W. wh. is nam. in an act of the Ct. Sept. 1641, impos. fine of L13. 6s. 8d. perhaps the same as JOSIAH that I find a merch. of Boston in 1666. Very obscure, however, is the evid. for either suppos. Lewis claims one W. for Lynn 1637, but says he rem. to Sandwich. WOLLEY, ROBERT, Southampton, L. I. one of those wh. in Aug. 1673, made a represent. of their cases to the inhabs. of the Unit. Colonies of N. E. as to the policy of their submit. to the Dutch, wh. had conquer. New York. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 86-88. Perhaps the name might as well be read Walley. WOLLOND, or WOOLLEN, EDWARD, of wh. I kn. no more but that he was an appraiser on two est. 1679 and 80, in Essex Co. in one case call. sen. so as to make it prob. he had s. Edward. WOLSEY, GEORGE, is, by Mr. Felt, seen with his w. 1653, in some part of the land; but I can trace them no later. WOLTEN, JOHN, Piscataquq, said to have come from Plymouth, Eng. a. 1633, and resid. twenty-one yrs. when, strange as it reads, our Gen. Ct. in 1654, order. him to go home to his w. Farmer, MS. says he was tak. on his passage, by the Dutch, wh. kept all his prop. but set him on shore in Eng. where he soon aft. d. [[625]] WOOD, or WOODS, ABIEL, Middleborough, s. of Henry, m. 1683, Abiah Bowen, had Elnathan, b. 14 Apr. 1686; Abiah, 20 Feb. 1689.; Abiel, 19 Mar. 1691; Timothy, 13 Oct. 1693; Jerusha, 11 Nov. 1695; Ebenezer, 4 Aug. 1697; Judah, 28 July 1700; and Thomas, 30 Jan. 1703. With his w. he was among the found. of the first ch. at M. 1694; and d. 10 Oct. 1719; and his w. d. 21 May 1746, aged 83. ABRAHAM, Concord, s. perhaps eldest of Michael of the same, was freem. 1690. ANTHONY, Ipswich 1665, m. 1 June 1666, Mary Grover, perhaps d. of Edmund of Salem, had William, b. 20 Mar. 1667. CONSIDER, New London, by Miss Caulkins is mark. as hav. a gr. of ld. 1648, but forfeit. for non-resid. CONSTANT, a passeng. aged 12 yrs. in the Abigail from London, 1635, and there might seem some grounds for suspect. that he was the same as preced. DANIEL, Ipswich 1643, d. 1648. DANIEL, Rowley, rem. to Boxford, freem. sw. 22 Mar. 1690, and again in Oct. foll. if the Col. rec. be true, yet possib. the solemnity may have been for f. and s. by w. Sarah, wh. d. 27 Sept. 1714, had David, b. 1670; Daniel; John; and others, as Barry says. EDMUND, Springfield 1636, rem. to Wethersfield that yr. thence to Stamford 1641, and next, in few yrs. more to Hempstead, L. I. and may again have rem. EDWARD, Charlestown, was adm. to join the ch. 30 Mar. 1640, freem. 13 May foll. and his w. Ruth join. in few days. She perhaps had Ruth, and certain. Tabitha, bapt. 30 May 1641; d. 29 Aug. 1642, and he d. 27 Nov. foll. In Geneal. Reg. III. 81, the date of inv. would perhaps appear 4 Dec. aft. Farmer was led to mistake the name of the Springfield Edmund for Edward, and so to think he might be s. of this man. An EDWARD of Boston, mariner in 1659, had w. Elizabeth and no more is kn. ELEAZER, Medfield, youngest ch. of Nicholas of the same, was struck down, when his br. Jonathan, 21 Feb. 1676, was k. by the Ind. wh. scalp. him, and suppos. he was d. yet he reviv. in a good degree, and some yrs. aft. m. Dorothy, perhaps d. of George Badcock of Milton , had Dorothy; Hannah, b. 11 Feb. 1689; and Abigail, 25 Nov. 1692; and he liv. to 20 May 1704, with occasional mental aberra. ELIAS, ELLICE, or ELLIS, Dedham, by w. Catharine had Mehitable, b. 17 June 1658; Abigail, 19 July 1660; and his w. d. 29 May 1663. He took for sec w. Miriam, wid. of John Smith of D. wh. was the school-mistress many yrs. and d. 19 Oct. 1706, aged 73. The ludicrous solemnity of the gr.-st. inscript. is happily preserv. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 277. He rem. to Dorchester, where he was freem. 1673 and liv. 1692. GEORGE, Saybrook 1660, m. that yr. but the name of his w. is not seen.; had George, b. 28 Sept. 1661, and prob. rem. HENRY, Plymouth 1643, m. a. 1645, Abigail, d. of John Jenny, rem. to Yarmouth, had Sarah; [[626]] Samuel, b. 25 May 1647; went back to P. there had John, 1649; Jonathan, 1 Jan. 1650; David, 17 Oct. 1651; Isaac, 1654; and Abiel; and perhaps more ch. d. at Middleborough; but the time of his d. is not seen, bec. the inv. ment. in Geneal. Reg. VII. 235 is defic. in date. His d. Sarah m. 28 Nov. 1667, John Nelson. HENRY, Concord, by w. Ellen had John, b. 17 Nov. 1651; Mary, 7 Sept. 1653; Hannah, 11 Mar. 1656; and Milicent, 4 Apr. 1660. Usually his name is Woods; and I presume he rem. to Groton, was quarter-master of the troop of W. Middlesex cavalry in 1671. HENRY, Newport, by w. Hannah had Henry, b. 24 Nov. 1670; Abigail, 15 Aug. 1672; James, 9 Nov. 1674; Hannah, 25 Sept. 1677; Richard, 28 Oct. 1679; and Elizabeth 9 Jan. 1682. It ought to be add. that the rec. spells this name as Whod, and possib. that may mean Hood. Isaac, Marlborough, s. of John of Sudbury, of wh. from Barry I learn, that by two ws. he had Isaac, Joseph, Charles, Solomon, Dinah, Mary, and Elizabeth and that his will was pro. 17 Aug. 1720. Sewall's Diary, as giv. in Geneal. Reg. VI. 72, says under 1685, July 4, "Isaac W. dies suddenly." Perhaps this was some young man, fellow-worship. with S. but my knowledge is limit. by him. ISAIAH, Ipswich 1668, then said to be 41 yrs. old, m. 26 Jan 1653, Mercy, d. of Simon Thompson of the same, had Mary, b. 31 Oct. 1653; Simon, 18 Feb. 1655; Thomas, Nov. 1656, d. in 5 mos.; Sarah, Jan. 1658, d. next mo.; Samuel and Isaiah, tw. 20 July 1659, of wh.

OBADIAH, a soldier wound. in Philip's war late in 1675; for whose cure the Conn. counc. made liberal paym. [see Col. Rec. II. 484], was of Hartford 1676, and perhaps s. of the [[629]] preced. had there bapt. Margaret, 1687; Abigail, 1699; and Margaret, again, 1705; and prob. others; but when he d. is not heard.

TRYALL, Salisbury, d. 11 June 1678, but we kn. not whether male or fem. ch. or adult. WALTER, Newport, perhaps br. of Henry, at least [[630]] the same perversity. of spelling the name, Whod, leaves uncertain what to call it, by w. Amy had Martha, b. 2 May 1676. WILLIAM, the valu. author of New England's Prospect, London 1634, may well be thot. that freem. of 18 May 1631; but more prob. is it, that he was sett. at Lynn, as early as 1630, as claim. by Lewis. He prob. came to Salem, 1629, and 15 Aug. 1633 left our country, as his book relates. That was print. 1634, and it is conject. by Shattuck, wh. would magnify the honor of Concord by so respectab. a citizen, that he came again to our side of the water, and d. at C. aft. many yrs. resid. 14 Ma y 1671, aged 86. For a William this is well vouch. Lewis has better appear. of proof in p. 84, of his sec. Ed. quot. Wood's words of minute descript. of Lynn river; beside wh. the fact of one of this name being rep. at the Gen. Ct. Mar. 1636, when he was chos. either from Salem or Lynn. bef. any one came from C. with the resid. at Sandwich 1643, so large a proport. of the first inhab. of S. having gone from L. are no slight object. to the hopes of Shattuck. Still the fame of Bulkley may have drawn him from S. where we never hear of him more. One Miriam whose f. we kn. not, was b. 8 May 1648, bur. next day; and Mary was b. 29 Mar. 1649, both at S. One WILLIAM came, 1635, in the Hopewell, Capt. Babb, a husbandman, aged 27, with Elizabeth 24, wh. may have been his sis. or w. and John, 26, bef. ment. prob. his. br. and it is clear, that if this be the author (wh. I neither affirm nor deny), two points decide against the Concord claim to him; for at C. w. of William d. 1 Sept. 1659, was call. Margaret; and the passeng. in the autumn of 1635 on the Hopewell, must have been b. 1608, while Shattuck's client could not have come into our world aft. 1585; or, if his faculties were not weaken. when he made his will, 15 Sept. 1670, reckon. hims. as 88 yrs. old, still earlier was his advent. At C. no ch. was b. to him; but he had ch. perhaps all, certain most. b. in Eng. Michael; Ruth, wh. m. Thomas Wheeler; and Abigail, wh. m. 24 Mar. 1667, Stephen Hosmer. The will names, beside Michael, Ruth and her h. the. gr.d. Abigail Hosmer . WILLIAM, Portsmouth, R. I. m. Martha, d. of the first Ralph Earle. WILLlAM, Marblehead 1668, had perhaps William, both old eno. to sign the petition to the Gen. Ct. that yr. and was liv. 1678. WILLIAM, Ipswich, took the o. of fidel. 1678. WILLIAM, Newtown, L. I. 1640-1686, may have come from Stamford, Conn. WILLIAM, Ipswich, s. of Isaiah, d. 27 Sept. 1689, prob. unm. as he nam. no ch. but did sev. brs. and sis. WILLIAM, Salem vil. now Danvers, freem. 1690. Gr. in 1834 were count. by Farmer, thirteen at Dartm. twelve at Harv. five at Yale, and ten at other. N. E. coll. Woods are unit. as Wood. WOODBRIDGE, BENJAMIN, Newbury or Cambridge, whichever may be prefer. by the reader as resid. of this first-b. of H. C. 1642, younger [[631]] br. of our John, wh. prob. brot. him in the Mary and John, 1634, and s. of Rev. John of Stanton, near Highworth, Co. Wilts, where he was b. 1622. Strangely confus. is an acco. in Geneal. Reg. VI. 279, that he was brot. by his br. on his return from Eng. 1663, aft. wh. he "became one of the first br. of Harv." He had, if we receive the acco. that Mather gives, Magnalia, III. 219, been tak. by that br. wh. had gone back to Eng. in 1637, on receiv. news of d. of his f. but I see no small reason to doubt the narrative in the Eccles. Hist. Yet it is more consistent with itself than the Geneal. Reg. story. He went home, soon aft. grad. and obtain. a living in his native Co. perhaps at Salisbury, into wh. he was induct. 16 Nov. 1648; and honor. at Oxford with degree of S. T. D. the same yr. He next succeed. famous Dr. Twist at Newbury in the adjoin. shire of Berks, and in 1662 was eject. from office, and d. 1 Nov. 1684, at Englefield, in the same Co. His verses on our John Cotton, purport. to be inscript. on gr.-st. are in the Magnalia, III. 31. But in Allen's Biogr. Dict. the ingenious lines ae ascrib. to his neph. and his opinion should have weight, yet it may be that either of us follow. no course of inquiry to ascertain, which Benjamin has the best claim. BENJAMIN, Medford, s. of Rev. John of Andover, b. in Eng. whither his f. had gone a. 1647, and was prob. brot. by him, when he came back in 1663, m. 3 June 1672, Mary, d. of Rev. John Ward of Haverhill, wh. d. 11 Oct. 1680. By her prob. was b. only ch. Benjamin, that had been heard of by Farmer, as in his MS. notes to his Reg. is told. But in the "Ancestry of the Jones Fam." of Geneal. Reg. VI. besides this s. he is enrich. with Dudley, of Barbadoes, and Rev. Samuel of E. Hartford, H. C. 1701. That article contains too many errors to entitle it to the confidence desirable, among others one suspic. point is, that this s. was b. some yrs. aft. the d. of his w. He preach. some yrs. at Bristol, and aft. at Kittery 1688, and was resid. 1694 at Newcastle, N. H. but at last sat down 17 June 1702 at M. says Farmer in MS. and there d. 15 Jan. 1710. I wish the fair author of that Jones Geneal. could teach us, wh. are the two Dudley Woodbridges, for only one should be ascrib. to Benjamin, in our Coll. Cat. 1694 and 1696. JOHN, Newbury, s. of Rev. John of Stanton in the N. E. part of Wiltsh. b. 16l3, had been bred at Oxford, Mather says, but on the requirem. of the o. of uniformity, he left the Univers. for "a course of more private studies," and was brot. by his uncle, Rev. Thomas Parker, whose living was at Newbury in the neighborhood, in comp. with his cous. Rev. James Noyes, 1634, in the Mary and John, was one of the first planters of our Newbury, but he seems to have little tendency to preach, as in 1637, the yr. when his f. d. in Eng. (for by the Registry of Diocese I obs. that a successor was then appoint. to the vacancy) he was made [[632]] "surveyor of the arms," and rep. to the Gen. Ct. He not long aft. taught a sch. in Boston, when Portmorth had gone, in the religious schism, to Exeter, and he is even claim. as a mem. of ar. co. 1644, and m. a. 1639, Mercy, d. of Gov. Thomas Dudley, and was liv. at N. when his f.-in-law, in Nov. 1642, stir. him up to seek. advancem. as a min. and on 24 Oct. 1645 he was ord. not 16 Sept. 1644, wh. is Mather's date (more than a yr. bef. the ch. was gather.), as first min. at the new town of Andover. More trustworthy, however, is the tale, that he went, in 1647, "on the invitat. of his friends" to Eng. once more. exc. in this last circumstance; tho. why friends should withdraw him, in less than two yrs. from his first settlem. in the pulpit here, is not easi. explain. Sixteen yrs. contin. in Eng. first having employ. in the serv. of the able men of that Parliam. commiss. for treating with the king in his prison at the Isle of Wight bef. the overthrow of Parliam. authority by the soldiers wh. adopt. the more summary mode of negotiat. for remodel. tle old constitution of their country. Here, prob. he was fix. in the presbyter. views of ch. governm. in opposit. to the levellers and Cromwellians, and was employ. aft. as min. at Andover, in Hampsh. and a less import. parish in Wilts, finally at a sch. in Newbury, whence, Mather says, the Bartholomew Act exclud. him. In 1663, July 27, he reach. Boston in the ship Society, and in two yrs. was engag. as asssist. in the min. of his unlce Parker. In this honorble duty, aft. two or three yrs. a sad controv. distract. the quiet of the ch. and he was dismiss. some time bef. 1670, tho. Parker remain. in the tempestuous sea to his d. in 1677. Of his ch. Coffin names Sarah, b. 7 June 1640; Lucy, 13 Mar. 1642, wh. m. 2 Oct. 1667, Rev. Simon Bradstreet of New London, her cous. and next, Capt. Daniel Epps; John, H. C. 1664; but this last and other eight or nine were b. aft. he left our Newbury, and most of them in Eng.; Thomas, 1649; Mary, 1652; Benjamin; Timothy, 1656, H. C. 1675; Dorothy; Ann; Joseph; Martha; but tradit. in Mather gives ano. without name, and says eleven liv. to adult age. Aft. retiring from the ministry, the notice in Geneal. Reg. VI. 279, proceeds,"he was immediately chos. into the magistr." but it was not until 1683, and Mather left him out of the Counc. in his new chart. of 1691, as prob. too old. His w. d. 1 July 1691, and he d. 17 Mar. 1695. JOHN, Killingworth, s. of the preced. b. prob. at Andover, began to preach there 1666, but early in 1668 at Windsor, where in Oct. preced. had been gr. div. of the sentiment of the old parishion. of Warham, wh. was grown too infirm, a major part unit. in desire of one of the s. of Presid. Chauncey. Aft. long disquiet, the earlier and elder candidate went to Eng. and W. was ord. 7 Apr. 1669 for Kenilworth as the settlem. was first call. by the people and the rulers bef. modern [[633]] barbarity inflict. its present name; and the governm. of the Col. made him a gr. of 250 acres of ld. next yr. for his good conduct, but in 1679 he was sett. at Wethersfield. He m. 26 Oct. 1671, Abigail, eldest d. of Gov. William Leete, and Miss Jones in the Geneal. Reg. VI. gives him s. John, b. at K. 1678, H. C. 1694, the min. of West Springfield; but she makes the f. d. bef. 1682, while the Coll. catal. notes him 1690. Ano. s. was Ephraim, H. C. 1701, ord. 8 Nov. 1704 at Groton, Conn. For a gr.s. John, Y. C. 1726, min. at Windsor, and aft. at So. Hadley, s. of the W. S. min. a weak tradit. that he was "ninth John W. in the min. thro. as many successive generat." Farmer adopts. Sufficient honor it may be esteem. if a begin. of this tale be true, as the judicious author of the memoir indicates "Rev. John W. a follower of Wickliffe, b. not far from 1492. His s. John braved the dangers of the same profession and faith, as also did John the third, John the fourth, and John the fifth, in regular succession. The last named was the much esteemed pastor of a puritan ch. in Stanton, Wilts." Now the same faith may have been enjoy. in private by the first, sec. third, fourth, and fifth John; but I shall doubt the profession was not pubic, until some account be found of the benefices filled by them under the tyrannic. power of buff old Harry in his long reeign, and durirg the power of his harder daur. Queen Mary. On our side of the water, the fam. has been illustr. by a long line of clerg. JOHN, Newbury, sch.-master 1719-31, was prob. s. of Joseph of the same, d. 13 Dec. 1731.

C. 1701; Susanna; and prob. others, beside Ashbel, b. 1704, Y. C. 1724, wh. by mistake in Geneal. Reg. VII. 75, I presume, is made s. by a sec. w. that [[634]] his f. did not have. The sec. w. of Rev. Timothy W. was Abigail, d. of the rich wid. of Phineas Wilson of Hartford, by her third. h. John Warren of Boston; and Goodwin, 349, wh. is wrong in call. her sec. w. of Warren when she was the third, must be right to her d. Abigail, being wid. of Richard Lord, and giv. only to Woodbridge, Theodore, b. 23 June 1717. A third w. he had in Mary, d. of Hon. William Pitkin, wid. of some min. that Miss Jones has not nam. in her Memoir. Geneal. Reg. VI. 280, and to me it seems very strange, that such details cannot be gather. but she tells of his d. 30 Apr. 1732. Farmer counts, in 1834, gr. of this name, eighteen at Yale, twelve at Harv. two at Dartm. and four at other N. E. coIl. add. that one half had been clerg. among wh. the first eight at Harv. and first four at Yale. WOODBURY, sometimes WOODBURY, ANDREW, Salem, 1668, s. of the elder William, wh. was br. of John and Nicholas, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 14 May 1657, d. next yr.; Susan, 9 June 1660; and Hannah, 1 Apr. 1664. His wid. Mary brot. inv. to Ct. 29 June 1685. HENRY, in Essex Inst. I. 12, nam. as overseer with two others in the will of George Williams, 23 Sept. 1654, seems to me a mistake, perhaps for Humphrey. HUGH, Salem 1650, s. of William the first, liv. prob. on Beverly side, as he was one of the found. of ch. there, m. Dec. 1650, Mary Dixey. perhaps d. of Thomas of S. had Samuel, b. 6 Dec. 1651,bapt. 25 Jan. 1652, d. young; Samuel, again, but rec. says Sarah, 2, bapt. 4 June 1654; Hugh, 12 Feb. bapt. 9 Mar. 1657; John, b. 5 Sept. 1658, bapt. 6 Mar. 1659; Priscilla, 8 Apr. 1666, but no more is kn. of him, unless he be the man of this name in 1686 at or near Taunton. HUMPHREY, Beverly, s. prob. eldest of John, b. in Eng. a. 1609, had perhaps come with his f. 1626 to Cape Ann, rem. with Conant next yr. to Salem, and there he prob. contin. while his f. went home in 1627 to obt. assist. for the planta. and came back in June 1628, a. three mos. bef. Endicott. He unit. with the ch. July 1643, yet is not sw. freem. bef. 1678, even if this be not better evidence for his s. than hims. had w. Elizabeth and ch. bapt. at S.; Isaac, 4 Feb. 1644; Humphrey, 8 Mar. 1646; Susanna, 4 Feb. 1649; William, 4 May 1651; Peter, 17 Apr. 1653, yet said to be b. 28 Mar. 1652, and one or the other rec. may be wrong; Richard, b. 28 Feb. 1655, bapt. prob. 11 Mar. foll.; Elizabeth b. 28 Apr. 1657, bapt. 30 May 1658, wh. m.

Feb. 1681. By the change in process on wills and est. of dec. persons aft. overthr. of the oldl charter, under direct. of Presid. Dudley, his will, of 4 Mar. 1686, pro. 11 Oct. foll. is found in [[635]] Suffolk jurisdict. Vol. XI. His w. Elizabeth was the extrix. His wid. by her will of 1 May 1689, with codic. of 8 Aug. foll. pro. 26 Nov. aft. at Salem, as giv. in Geneal. Reg. VII. 322, names the three ds. but only two s. William, wh. is made excor. and John, ea. hav. call. a s. Peter aft. her s. wh. was k. at Deerfield with Capt. Lothrop and the flower of Essex, 18 Sept. 1675. HUMPHREY, Beverly, s. of the preced. m. 8 Jan. 1671, Ann, perhaps d. of Richard Window of the same, had Bethia, b. 1672; Abigail, 1674; Humphrey, 1677, d. at 18 yrs.; Ann, 1680; Nehemiah, 1686; Abel, 1688; Nathan, 1691; and Israel, 1693; beside these at Gloucester, Nathaniel, 1684; Susanna, 1695; and Humphrey, 1698.

Robert and Mary, freem. 1678, was tak. 1689 in his fish. sch. by the French. JOHN, Salem, had come from Somersetsh. perhaps some fish. village on the Bristol Channel, and sat down first at Cape Ann, soon form. with others, under direct. of Roger Conant, the settlem. at Salem in 1626, went home next yr. and came back early in 1628, prob. bring. w. Agnes and s. William, unless it be conclud. that they were brot. two yrs. bef. with s. Humphrey. In the notice of Roger Conant, one of the most valua. of Mr. Felt's illustra. of our early hist. Geneal. Reg. II. 235-8, is seen the degree of organiz. of governm. bef. the coming of Endicott, wh. did not, so far as we can learn, exercise any higher authority, and prob. bef. the arr. of Higginson, and the fleet of 1629, had not add. a greater num. of subjects than he found already in the planta. He was sw. constable, 28 Sept. as in our Col. Rec. I. 76, appears, and req. to be adm. freem. 19 Oct. 1630, aft. the governm. had been transfer. to this side of the water, and was sw. 18 May foll. was. rep. 1635 and 1638, prob. took a sec. w. had Hannah, bapt. 25 Dec. 1636; Abigail, 12 Nov. 1637; and Peter, 20 Sept. or Nov. 1640; and d. 1641. His wid. Agnes did not produce the will until some mos. aft. being summon. and the inv. was not sw. bef. 20 Feb. 1644. JOHN, Beverly, s. of Humphrey, or of William, perhaps, freem. 1670, was next yr. at Rowley, and soon back to B. The s. of Humphrey nam. a ch. Peter in mem. of his own br. Peter, the soldier, wh. fell at Bloodybrook, 18 Sept. 1675, as in the will of the child's gr.mo. is seen, Geneal. Reg. VII. 322. But an elder JOHN of Salem, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 15 Aug. 1654; John, 15 Mar. 1657, d. young; and Abigail, 8 June 1660. He may have been s. of William the first. JONATHAN, Boston, mariner, m. Abigail, d. of Henry Phillips, had Jonathan; and d. 1677, hav. made his will 22 Jan. of that yr. His wid. m. David East, and next, Thomas Walter. NICHOLAS, Beverly, [[636]] came from Great Yarmoth, Co. Norfolk, was early of Salem, s. of the elder William, is call. br. in the will of James Patch 1658, perhaps from his m. a sis. had gr. of ld. 1638, tho. prob. he was then only a young man, m.

In it he ment. w. Ann, ch. Isaac, Andrew, Benjamin, Joan, w. of Samuel Plummer, wh. was b. Mar. 1653 and Abigail, Aug. 1655; w. of Richard Ober, and her ch. Ann and Hezekiah. To these he div. good. est. here, but to his eldest s. Nicholas, 31 July 1657; he devis. his ld. in the mother country at Great Yarmouth. But that w. had been d. some yrs. as I presume, for admin. 2 Dec. 1691, was giv. to his wid. Mary. PETER, Beverly, s. of John the first, freem. 1668, was serg. 1685, by w. Sarah, d. of first Richard Dodge, had Peter, bapt. 21 July 1667; perhaps others beside Josiah, b. 15 June 1682, wh. was gr.gr.f. of Hon. Levi, late one of the Justices of the Sup. Ct. of the U.

WILLIAM, Salem, br. of the first John, had gr. of ld. 1637, of wh. our ch. knowledge comes from his will and inv. In the will of 5 June 1663, pro. 26 June 1677, he names w. Elizabeth s. Nicholas, William, Andrew, Hugh, and Isaac, and d. Hannah Haskell. The inv. says he was aged a. 88, and d. 29 Jan. 1677. WILLIAM, Salem, s. of the preced. unit. with the ch. 29 Dec. 1639, had Nathaniel, bapt. 12 Jan. 1640; and John, 24 Oct. 1641; freem. 2 June 1641; was one of the found. of the ch. at Beverly 1667, d. 1674.

I find six of this fam. gr. at Dartm. and two at Harv. WOODCOCK, JOHN, Wrentham, is first heard of at Springfield 1638, where he was largely in trade, yet he may have gone thither from Roxbury, at least he was of R. so much as to own two houses there, for he mortgag. one, 25 Mar. 1651, to John Gore, and the other, 6 June aft. to Joseph Holmes. However, he had rem. from S. to Dedham 1642, and [[637]] thence, perhaps, to Rehoboth, bef. 1673, but prob. liv. much at W. In Philip's war, his ho. in W. now perhaps within Attleborough bounds, was a famous garrison, and he says, in a letter of 26 Apr. 1676, that two of his fam. had been slain, and ano. s. was wound. Yet he prefer. the jurisdict. of Plymouth, and was rep. for R. 1651. See Baylies, II. 218, and III. 125. Of his fam. no full acco. is kn. but he was liv. 1694, had d. Sarah, w. m.

JOHN, Dover, s. of the preced. m. a. d. of Francis Raynes of York, had only s. Jonathan, and d. 10 June 1705. JONATHAN, Newbury, s. of Edward the first, m. 2 Jult 1668, Hannah Hilton, perhaps d. of William of the same, had Hannah, b. 8 Mar. 1669; Sarah, 19 Oct. 1670; Ruth, 11 July 1672; Jonathan, 16 Apr. 1674; Ichabod, 26 Apr. 1676; Mary, 25 Apr. 1678; and William, 29 Mar. 1681. He took o. of alleg. 26 Feb. 1669, and in 1681 calls Stephen Greenleaf his uncle, for wh. I would glad. see the cause. JOSEPH, Salem, a youth, ment. in the will of Christopher Waller, Oct. 1676. JOSHUA, Newbury, elder br. of Jonathan, m. 22 Jan. 1666, Elizabeth Stevens, perhaps d. of John of Andover, where the m. was, had Mehitable, b. 20 Sept. 1677; and Jonathan; but as Coffin gives not the date of the last, nor any more ch. we may suppose that he rem. to Andover, where Farmer says he liv. yet Newbury can show his gr.-st. with inscript. that he d. 30 May 1703. RICHARD, Lynn 1644, d. Nov. 1647, as from prob. rec. Coffin tell's, and that he had no ch. and he may have been that passeng. emb. at London in the Abigail, July 1635, aged 9. One Woodman whose bapt. name is not seen, m. Remember, d. of Moses Maverick of Marblehead. Six of this name are by Farmer found as gr. at N. E. coll. in 1834. WOODMANSEY, JAMES, Boston, s. of John of the same, m. 17 May 1686, Abigail, d. of Jacob Melyen, had Elizabeth bapt. 10 Apr. 1687, and a s. but d. Feb. 1694, and his wid. m. 1706, William Tilley, wh. had not, I think been long resid. at B. and next she m. 29 Oct. 1719, Hon. Samuel Sewall, Ch. Just. of the Sup. Ct. and d. suddenly 26 May foll. He was, I presume, the last of the males bearing this name. JOHN, Boston 1659, merch. by w. Margaret had Margaret, b. 17 Oct. 1660. His w. d. 29 Dec. foll. and he m. 1 May 1662, Elizabeth eldest ch. of George Carr of Salisbury, had John, 2 Feb. 1663, wh. d. young; James, 7 Dec. 1665; and again he m. 23 July 1672, Elizabeth d. of Jonas Clark of Cambridge, had Elizabeth 13 Aug. 1674, wh. d. next yr. and her gr.-st. inscript. is at Cambridge; Elizabeth again, bapt. 16 Apr. 1676; Sarah, 8, bapt. 11 Jan. 1680; John, 28, bapt. 29 Jan. 1682, bapt. 22 [[642]] July 1683; and Ann, 20 July 1684, bapt. the same day. He was freem. 1673, belong. to 3d or Thacher's ch. and d. a. 1685, when, as Col. Rec. V. shows, his wid. extrix. had to ask intervent. of the Gen. C. She m. George Monk, the vintner; and outliv. him. ROBERT, Ipswich, with prefix of respect, rem. early to Boston, with w. Margaret, and d. Ann, wh. m. John Cutler of Charlestown; had at B. Seth, b. 26 Mar. 1644; Joseph, bapt. 1 Apr. 1649, at four days old; Bethia, 15 Dec. 1650; beside Sarah wh. may have been brot. from I. and d. 10 Nov. 1653. He was sch.-master at £50. a yr. from 1650, and d. 13 Aug. 1667. His wid. Margaret d. 1670. WOODROP, WILLIAM, Lancaster, an eject. min. in Mather's Magn. III. 4, of wh. he tells not. a word. Farmer gave the name Woodroffe, as if he had been progen. of the fam. not sparsely scatter. in our country; but I can hardly think so ill of the spell in the Magn. for Mather must oft. have seen him, and prob. writ. letters to and rec. from him. Hull, in his Diary, furnishes the desira. informat. that he arr. at Boston from Jamaica, 29 Dec. 1674; and he must have found it no easy matter to obt. employm. nor can I trace him again, exc. in the gr. ordina. of Rev. Daniel Gookin at Sherburne, 26 Mar. 1685, when Woodrop's assist. Both Hull and Sewall give the spelling I have substitut. for Farmer's and my only further fact to be told, is that he sail. for Eng. 12 July 1687, no doubt to take advantage of King James's newborn or pretend. favor to dissent. He left no descend. here, prob. had no w. WOODROW, may be an independ. name, but as some of the Woodruff's have this form of spell. I have chosen to combine the two. WOODRUFF, WOODROW, WOODROFFE, or WOODROOFE, BENJAMIN, Salem 1660-78, by w. Rebecca had Mary, b. 21 Apr. 1660; and his w. d. 2 June 1663, and he may have been br. of Joseph. JOHN, Southampton, L. I. 1640 or 1, is by Wood's Hist. made one of the orig. compan. of Pierson in settlem. JOHN, Farmington, s. of Matthew, d. 1692, his will being of 18 Apr. and inv. so soon aft. as 16 May foll. when seven ch. are nam. and their ages are giv. but wh. was the mo. or when she was m. does not appear. The eldest was Mary, w. of John Root, 25; John, 23; Hannah, 21; Phebe, 16; Joseph, 13; Margaret, 10, wh. was bapt. 23 Apr. 1682; and Abigail, 8, bapt. 30 Mar. 1684. Lambert places him at Milford 1685, but prob. without good reason. He was propound. for freem. as early as 1663. JOSEPH, Salem, may have been the name of him wh. m. Rebecca, d. of the wid. of William Canterbury, and had Joseph and Mary, and the f. whether Joseph or other name, was d. as also was his w. in July 1684. JOSEPH, Farmington, m. Hannah, d. of John Clark, but of name of his f. or date of m. or any other incid. I am ign. MATTHEW, Farmington, an orig. propr. by w. Hannah wh. join. the ch. 2 Apr. 1654, had John, b. 1643; Matthew, 1646; Hannah, [[643]] 1648; EIiz. 1651, all bapt. at once, 2 Apr.; and Mary, 5 Nov. 1654, wh. d. young; but of any more we kn. not, exc. Samuel, b. 26 Aug. 1661; was freem. prob. 1657, and d. 1682, his will being dat. 6 Sept. and pro. Dec. foll. In it he ment. w. three s. and d. Hannah Seymour, w. of the sec. Richard, only; but the Ct. supplied the deficience of his mem. in favor of Elizabeth wh. had m. 1678, John Broughton of Northampton. MATTHEW, Farmington, s. of the preced. m. 16 June 1668, Mary Plum, d. of Robert of Milford, and there had Matthew, b. 1669; Mary, 1670; John, 1673; Sarah, 1674; Samuel, 1677; Elizabeth 1679; Hannah, 1681; all liv. in 1704, to take share of their mo. in est. of gr.f. He was propound. for freem. 1671. Aft. d. of his the first, he ret. to F. and took sec. w. Sarah, d. of John North, had Nathaniel, May 1687 (one of the first sett. at Litchfield, and there perpet. the name); and Joseph, bapt. 19 May 1689; and d. Nov. 1691. His wid. d. in the winter foll. NATHANIEL, in Trumbull's Col. Rec. I. 88, and 298, I doubt not, is misreading for the first Matthew. SAMUEL, Farmington, youngest s. of the first Matthew, m. 1686, Rebecca, d. of John Clark, had Samuel, b. 20 Jan. bapt. 6 Mar. 1687; Jonathan, 30 Nov. bapt. 2 Dec. 1688; Rebecca, 4, bapt. 8 Feb. 1691; Ruth, 15, bapt. 26 Feb. 1693; Ebenezer, 24 Dec. 1694, bapt. 3 Feb. foll.; and Daniel, 2, bapt. 8 Nov. 1696; rem. to Southington, there had David, b. 27 Feb. 1699; Hezekiah, 9 Aug. 1701; Rachel, 20 Nov. 1703; Abigail, 26 Feb. 1706; and John, 5 Apr. 1708; and d. 1742. Ten descend. of the first Matthew in the male line are in the Yale list of gr. betw. 1779 an 1836 inclus. WOODWARD, AMOS, Cambridge, s. of George of the same, freem. 1677, d. 9 Oct. 1679, aged 38 yrs. as his gr.-st. tells, but from his nuncup. will, we do not learn that his w.

Ann, d. of William Beamsley, had Sarah, b. 21 Jan. 1654; Ann, 14 July 1653; Margaret, 24 Feb. 1656; and Elizabeth 12 Oct. 1657; unless the date of the first ch. in Geneal. Reg. IX. 252, should be error for 1652; beside Prudence, 4 Apr. 1660. He was of Ipswich 1678, when he took the o. of alleg. and there had Martha, 3 May 1662; Mary, 8 Dec. 1664; Ezekiel, 9 Aug. 1666; and Rachel, 20 Jan. 1669. He m. later, Sarah, wid. of John Solart of Wenham. GEORGE, is the name of a fishmonger from St. Botolph's, Billingsgate, London, permit. to emb. in the [[644]] Hopewell, 1635, aged 35, or in the Rebecca, for I must suppose the same man to be intend. as the yrs. are the same, and the transact. in the same week, as told in the custom-ho. rec. by 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 254, and 256. Of him, as nothing more is heard, we may presume he soon went home, and perhaps his visit was only for purpose of trade. GEORGE, Watertown 1641, s. of Richard of the same, with wh. he came from Ipswich, Co. Suffolk, in the Elizabeth, 1634, aged 13, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 12 Aug. 1641; Sarah, 3 or 6 Feb. 1643; Amos; Rebecca, 30 Dec. 1647; John, 20 or 28 Mar. 1649; Susanna, 30 Sept. 1651; Daniel, 2 Sept. 1653; and Mercy, perhaps, tho. town rec. says Mary, 3 June 1656.

GEORGE, Watertown, s. of the preced. m. 31 Dec. 1686, Lydia; d. of Abraham Brown, had Abraham, b. 1 Feb. 1688; George; Nathaniel; Lydia; and Echabod; rem. aft. b. of his first ch. to that part of Boston, call. Muddy riv. now Brookline, and d. 1696. HENRY, Dorchester 1639, came, says Clapp, in his careful Hist. of Dorchester, p. 141, in the James, Capt. Taylor, in the summer of 1635, with Richard Mather, and he calls him a physician. He had there, Experience; Freedom, bapt. 1642; Thankful; and John; rem. 1659 to Northampton, with those ch. and the mo. Elizabeth there was one of the founders of the first ch. and had been an early mem. at D. He was k. by accid. at the grist-mill, 7 Apr. 1685; and next mo. the wid. made her will, tho. she d. not bef. 13 Aug. 1690. Of her s. she says "has been a dutif. and well carriaged s. to me all my life." Experience m. 21 Nov. 1661, Medad Pomeroy; Freedom m. 18 Nov. 1662, Jedediah Strong; and Thankful m. 18 Dec. 1662, John Taylor; all of Northampton. ISRAEL, Taunton, m. 4 Aug. 1670, Jane Godfrey, perhaps d. of Richard the first, had Elizabeth b. 15 June preced. if Col. Rec. be right, wh. I distr. and it adds that he d. 15 June 1674, had Israel, posthum. 4 Oct. 1674. JAMES, Dover, 1646, may be the same wh. was of Watertown 1630, in serv. of Sir Richard Saltonstall, and then, by our Col. Rec. I. appears to have been not valua. citiz. JOHN, Watertown, s. of Richard of the same, brot. by his f. in the Elizabeth 1634, aged 13, in Nov. 1639, partook of the paternal Kindness of our governm. on a complaint "ad monish. to take heed of drink. strong water again;" by w.

Much distinct. in the science of med. has been attain. by descend. JOHN, Taunton, m. 11 Nov. 1675, Sarah Crossman. Perhaps he had John, b. at Taunton, 2 Mar. and Israel, 30 July 1681. JOHN, Reading, by Eaton call. one of the early sett. was freem. 1691. JOHN, sec. min. of Norwich, s. of Peter of Dedham, succeed. Rev. James Fitch, the first min. of that city, aft. long agitat. ord.

He had been Secr. to the Assembly of divines that formed the Saybrook platform, almost as powerful in moulding the machinery of eccles. discipline in Conn. as for few yrs. was the Westminster Assembly in Eng. The majority of the people were dissat. with his rule, tho. the greater part of the ch. sustain. him, and aft. sev. yrs. of contention, he was dism. 13 Sept. 1716. Whether he obt. ano. parish is not heard, and by the Coll. Catal. he liv. to 1746. JOHN, Sudbury, perhaps s. of John the first, in his will of 2 Oct. 1736, ment. s. John and Daniel, and gr.d. Susanna Haines. JOSEPH, Providence 1676, there had liv. thro. Philip's war. NATHANIEL, Boston, a mathematician and surveyor, employ. as our Col. Rec. I. 237, shows, to run the line, 1638, betw. Plymouth Col. and Mass. and Mass. and Conn. Afterwards he was sent to the Merrimac survey. See Winthrop I. 284. It [[646]] is great mortificat. that we kn. not any thing of this fam. exc. that he had s. John, and Robert, of course, b. in Eng. allow. to have lots in Boston 1637. NATHANIEL, Boston 1633, perhaps s. of the preced. but on join. the ch. 1 Dec. of that yr. is ca.ll. serv. to our br. William Coddington, and possib. brot. by him that yr. when he ret. from Eng. was freem. 17 Apr. 1637, by w. Mary had Elisha, bapt. 21 Apr. 1644, a. 6 days old; Nathaniel, 12 Apr. 1646, a. 7 days old; and prob. other ch. but perhaps he rem. for in 1648, he sold dwell.-ho. and garden to John Langdon.

But when he calls him f. of the min. we must infer that he intends William. PETER, Dedham, prob. s. of the preced. by w.

His w. d. 6 Oct. 1662, aged a. 80 yrs. says the rec. with the usual tendency to exagger. and he d. 16 Feb. 1665; but first he m. 18 Apr. 1663, Ann, wid. of Stephen Gates of Cambridge, wh. d. 5 Feb. 1683.

THOMAS, Boston, carpenter, rem. to Roxbury, m. 7 Mar. 1660, Mary, d. of William Goose of Charlestown, had Thomas; Esther, both bapt. 1 May 1664, the f. hav. join. the ch. in the preced. mo.; Hannah, 14 May 1665; Elizabeth 30 June 1667; Mary, 17 Jan. 1669; Rachel, 27 Nov. 1670; Robert, 19 Oct. 1673; and Mehitable, 29 Apr. 1675; and he d. Oct. 1685, says Farmer, trust. the town rec. wh. I distr. because it ment. not the day of d. contains not a single name of the childr. and the ch. rec. of bur. or d. is 10 Sept. evidently nearer to a contempo. authority. WILLIAM, Dedham, perhaps s. of Peter the first, was a "min. of the gosp." d. at D. 26 June 1669, as by the Roxbury ch. rec. is told, and the Diary of John Hull calls him "a young but powerful preach." Of this name Farmer notes, that in 1834, twenty-one had been gr. at N. E. coll. of wh. I count ten at Dartm. five at Yale, four at Harv. WOODWELL, JOHN, Salem, wh. admin. 7 July 1701, on est. of his br. JOSHUA, was s. of MATTHEW, a seaman, in 1661, when ment. of him is first seen but later is call. brickmaker, in 1671 had w.

But Mary prob. d. young; and he had Mary, again, 26 Nov. 1677. Elizabeth was a witness allow. to sw. to ridicul. nonsense, or impertin. falsehood in the witchcr. trials of 1692. MATTHEW, Salem, s. of the preced. left wid. Ann to admin. his est. 11 Apr. 1702. SAMUEL, Salem, prob. eldest br. of the preced. by w. Thomasine, had Jonathan, b. 5 Apr. 1693, who prob. d. soon for, from his will of 25 Nov. 1697, pro. 10 Jan. foll. we find that he left wid. Thomasine, ch.

Mr. Felt confid. assures me that this is a differ. name from Wardwell or Wardell. WOODWORTH, BENJAMIN, Scituate, s. of Walter of the same, had Elizabeth Deborah, Abigail, and Robert, and d. in Philip's war. HENRY , the freem. of 10 May 1643, of wh. no diligence has discov. the resid. or anything more. Farmer here introd. the name of Recompense Woodsworth, on Middlesex rec. call. A. B. wh. d. 12 July 1679; but this must be double error, prob. for Recompense Wadsworth, and certain. for the coll. honor. In the Catal. such a surname has never yet appear. and bef. 1680 the only instance of the bapt. name is, 1661, with Osborn; and in the foll. generat. is attach. to a Boston Wadsworth. JOHN, Taunton, had Nathaniel, b. 31 July 1679. JOSEPH, Scituate, s. of the first Walter of the same, prob. youngest, m. 1669, Sarah, d. of Charles Stockbridhe of the same, had Joseph, b. 1670; Mary, 1673; Benjamin, 1676; Sarah, 1678; Elizabeth 1680; Eunice, 1682; Abigail, 1685; and Ruth, 1688. THOMAS, Scituate, br. of the preced. m. 1666, Deborah Daman, prob. d. of John of the same, had Deborah, b. 1667; Hezekiah, [[648]] 1671; and Catharine, 1673. WALTER, Scituate 1640, had Benjamin; Walter; Thomasma; and Joseph; Mary, wh. m. 1677, Aaron Simons; Martha, wh. m. 1679, Zachary Damon; and Mehitable, wh. suffer. from witchcraft. WALTER, Scituate, s. of the preced. prob. eldest, left, says Deane, Mary, b. 1658; Mehitable, 1662; and Ebenezer, 1664. WOOLCOT. See Wolcott. WOOLLEN, or WOOLEN, JOHN, New Haven 1642, was imprison. next yr. by the Swedes at Delaware, as he was there trad. in the river, agent for Capt. Lamberton. WOOLER, EDWARD, is the name of a man found by Coffin, among the rec. of Essex, or the tempora. Co. of Norfolk, of wh. all he tells is, that in 1658 he was 34 yrs. old. WOOLERY, or WOOLSWORTH, RICHARD, Newbury 1678, when he was 30 yrs. old, a weaver, whose name being occupied in Geneal. Reg. VII. 349, as Woolpoorle, call. for indignant remonstr. in the ensuing No. of that periodic. from Mr. Coffin, m. 24 Dec. 1678, Hannah Huggins, had a d. b. 1 Feb. 1680, d. very soon; Hannah, 10 Feb. 1681; and Mary, 22 Feb. 1683. In 1685 he was of Suffield, there had Elizabeth b. 29 Sept. of that yr. and ano. d. Abia, 16 Sept. 1691; and his w. d. 30 July of the same yr. a contradict. in the rec. that my seem easily reconcil. but it is of little conseq. whether the d. was b. 30 July, for she d. on 19 Oct. foll. and he d. 1696. His d. Hannah, tho. so young, was allow. to present. inv. wh. prob. was very small. Yet possib. an inf. s. was left, for in 1732, a Richard W. is at S. WOOLEY, or WOOLLY, sometimes WOLLEY, CHRISTOPHER, Concord 1666. EMANUEL, Newport, on the freemen's list 1655, by w. Elizabeth had Adam, b. Mar. 1654; Edward, Dec. 1655; Elizabeth and Mary, tw.

ROBERT, Fairfield 1649 and 53, rem. soon aft. to parts unkn. WOOLRIDGE, or WOOLRYCH, JOHN, Dorchester 1630, perhaps came in the Mary and John, at least on 19 Oct. of that yr. desir. to be adm. freem. and as he did not appear in May foll. to take the requisite o. when. ch. membership was not demand. as qualificat. I conject. that he had gone home, there found a w. Sarah, with wh. coming again, 1632, to our country, it seems they sat down at Charlestown, there join. the ch. 15 Mar. 1633, and he was made freem. 4 Mar. 1634, then by the Secr. on his rec. dignif. with prefix of Mr. was rep. 1635, and I regret to say, that no more of him is kn. so that it may be thot. that he went home.

This seems to throw discredit on the knowl. or honesty of the officer. Bond thinks the name may have been Wilson, as sometimes he found it. THOMAS, Watertown, s. of the preced. m. a. 1693, Elizabeth d. of John Chadwick, had John, b. 8 July 1694; Elizabeth 17 Aug. 1698; and Jonas.

WILLIAM, Salisbury, the first min. there, is suppos. to have come in 1639, and Mr. Coffin thot. he was from Salisbury, Co. Wilts, but the late historian of that city in 1842, aft. investigat. for me, found no trace of him, and add. "I think W. is not a Salisbury name." He had been min. in Eng. if the Magn. classif. be correct, yet nowhere have I seen the place of his educ. ment. but he brot. w. Sarah, and ch. Susanna, Samuel, and William; had here, prob.

Other ch. were William, 7 May 1672; Timothy, 2 June 1674; Samuel, 23 Dec. 1679; and Joseph, again, 22 June 1681. But no descend. of ony one of these six ch. is heard of. A passeng. in the Speedwell from London to Boston, 1657, was Rebecca W. aged 18, of wh. neither by accid. nor research have I learn. any thing more.

WORMELY, or WORMELEY, RALPH, Dover 1684, ment. by Belknap, I. 484, Farmer's Ed. but the diligence of Quint had add. nothing to our knowledge of him.

The wid. of 29 Oct. 1759, in the 72d yr. of her age, says Goodwin, p. 272; and there is very good reason to judge by rec. of her b. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 140, that she was past 82.

To supply the deficiencies as well as to correct the errors, of that notice, we may learn from the highest authority, that the m. refer. to, was on 19 Dec. 1691, and that the first issue of it was Experience, b. 20 Aug. foll. wh. d. next mo.; the next, Obadiah, 26 July 1693, not 1695; Experience, again, 1695; Noah, 29 Nov. of the yr. above; Clemence, 4 Nov. of the yr. above; Elisha, in May of the yr. above; Esther, 6 May 1708; and Mary, 8 May 1711. but the striking omiss. is of the first w.

He was entit. says Barry, 451, to houses, lds. &c. in the manor of Castle Bromwich, in Co. Warwick. EDWARD, Boston, m. 27 May 1657, Mary Powell, had, says Barry, Mary, b. 19 Jan. foll.

ELIZUR, Northampton, s. of Samuel the sec. of Springfield, m. Mary Pardee, as in Geneal. Reg. IV. 357, is said, and there are also giv. to him, ch.

Elizabeth had Mary, b. 1 Apr. 1635; and Samuel, 14 Feb. 1637. Of him, as no more is seen in the rec. it is safely conject. that he rem. but whither is uncert. One HENRY was a soldier of Turner's comp. in 1676. HENRY, Springfield, s. of the first Abel of the same, m. 1705, Hannah, youngest d. of John Bliss of the same, had Hannah, b. 18 May 1706; Henry, 9 Jan. 1708, wh. was k. 26 July foll. by the Ind. wh. at the same time, carr. away his w. and soon k. her.

Hannah, Deborah, Sarah, Moses, Stephen, Caleb, and Elisha. ISAAC,Hingham 1637, came from Co. Norfolk, d. 1652; and of him we kn. nothing more. ISAAC, Lancaster, of wh. that he d. in 1663, is all that is told. JAMES, Wethersfield, s. prob. eldest of the first Thomas of the same, and b. in Eng. freem. 1654, had w.

He d. 1723. Between this acco. and that of Geneal. Reg. IV. 358, some discrepance appears, but the correct vers. is here obey. * JOHN, Woburn 1641, had been of Charlestown, and there was one of the project. thirty-two in numb. for settlem. of the new ch. and town, freem. 1643, had John; Ruth, b. 23 Apr. 1646; Deborah, 21 Jan. 1649; and Sarah, 16 Feb. 1653; rep. 1648. His w. Priscilla d. 10 Apr. 1687, and he d. 21 June 1688. * JOHN, Gloucester, rep. 1648, with spell. of Write, of wh. I see no more, and think he may be the preced.

JOHN, Chelmsford, prob. s. of the first John, m. 10 May 1661, Abigail Warren, whose f. is not kn. but she, I suppose d. at Woburn, 6 Apr. 1726, aged 84; but Joseph, b. 14 Oct. 1663, was freem. 3 May 1665, liv. there in 1679, but, I think, rem. to Woburn, there d. 30 Apr. 1714, aged 83, if we agree to accept the gr.-st. inscript. JOHN, Watertown, freem. 1690. An alderman of Boston, Co. Lincoln, in 1630, was nam. John Wright, and may reasonab. be suppos. to have descend. here. JOSEPH, Wethersfield, s. of the first Thomas of the same, freem. 1667, by fam. tradit. is said to have had two ws. By the first Mary, m. 10 Dec. 1663, wh. d. 23 Aug. 1683, aged 38, he had Mary, b. 15 Apr. 1665; Elizabeth 18 Nov. 1667; Joseph, 14 Feb. 1670; Sarah, 16 May 1674; Thomas, 18 Jan. 1677; Joseph, 14 Feb. 1679; and Jonatahan, 18 June 1681. His next w. Mercy, m. 10 Mar. 1685, brot. him Benjamin; and Nathaniel, 16 Oct. 1688; and he is said to have d. early in 1715, but to have made his will three yrs. bef. JOSEPH, Medfield, freem. 1674.

Of this w. I suppose, was b. 23 Feb. 1671, a creature, minutely describ. Farmer MS. says in p. 33 of Incr. Mather's Hist. Ind. Wars; and that explains the orig. of the love of the marvellous in his s. "greater than his f." For ano. w. he had Ruth, wid. of John Center, and she d. 18 Feb. 1717, aged 60, if the gr.-st. be true; but I have a memo. slightly inconsist. that the rem. to Charlestown, and m. 7 July 1692, Elizabeth Bateman; wh. may seem very prob. bec. 2 Nov. 1686 his d.

He was freem. 1676, m. sec. w. 11 July 1706, Sarah, wid. of Richard Burk, wh. d. 1712; and he d. 26 Nov. 1725. MORDECAI, Plymouth, of wh.

NICHOLAS, Sandwich 1643, had been of Lynn 1637. PETER, Sandwich 1643, had rem. to that place 1638. My conject. is that he was br. of Nicholas; and in his MS. collect. for new edit. Farmer had noted, that he had s. Adam, b. 20 Mar. 1650, wh. prob. sett. at Oyster Bay, L. I. RICHARD, Lynn, perhaps as early as 1630, certain. in 1632, one of the Comtee. of that town to confer with two others of ca. town in advis. the Gov. and Assist. a rais. a public stock, freem. 14 May 1634, was of Boston 1636 or earlier, being No. 89 of the ch. so that it may well seem to be a differ. man. The Boston man had ld. at Mount Wollaston, and was call. capt. He there had a mill, wh. with forty acres, he gave, in 1640, to Thomas Dudley, as price of five cows. I hope he had a good bargain, but it seems a hard one. Prob. he liv. sometime at Dorchester, aft. 1636. RICHARD, Plymouth 1643, had Esther, b. 1649; and Isaac, 26 Aug. 1662. RICHARD, Rehoboth 1644.

Samuel; James; Judah, 6. 10 May 1642; Mary; Margaret; Esther; and Lydia; beside wh. he had Helped, 15 Sept. 1644, wh. was d. Prob. most of the five elder ch. were b. in Eng. and all they, with Judah, were liv. in 1680; and he d. "in his chair," says the rec. 17 Oct. 1665. His wid.

Of this Samuel descend. the late Silas, a Senator of the U. S. of no humble rank from New York.

THOMAS, Wethersfield 1639,. may have been earlier at Watertown, or other Mass. settlem. brot. from Eng. w. and ch. sev. perhaps, had more on this side of the water. For sec. w. by wh. he had no ch. he took Margaret, wid. of John Elson (wh. had been wid. of Hilliard, perhaps Hugh, and had s. Benjamin, Job, and John H.) He was much engag. 1658 in the controv. a. Rev. John Russell; and d. Apr. 1670. Of his ch. Samuel, James, Thomas, Joseph, Lydia, it is very diffic. to make any arrangem. of dates. Chapin, p. 179, adds to these a Mary. The wid. d. 1671; and the d. Lydia d. bef. he came to W. m. Joseph Smith. THOMAS, Wethersfield, s. perhaps eldest, of the preced. freem. 1654, d. 23 Aug. 1683, leav. good est. to ch.

He w. d. 3 June 1684, and he m. 9 Sept. foll. Elizabeth with a surname to be reject. on [[661]] wh. the contribut. of that valua. rec. in Geneal. Reg. III. 67, wrote to me, shortly aft. its publicat. in 1849; "Is not his name, Sadir, a strange one? I could, however, made nothing else out of it, unless I call it Sadie." Resort to conject. would be unjustifiab. as the orig. may be turn. to, but I doubt the first letter more than the last. If some undiscip. eye assail the MS. he may scrutinize each letter, and if the initial seem an S, other letters may turn out adler, or any thing exc. Sadir. WILLIAM, Plymouth, came in the Fortune, 1621, had w. Priscilla, but by his will of 16 Sept. 1633, might seem to have no ch. at least to her he gives all. WILLIAM, Sandwich, whose rec. of bur. 2 May 1648 is all that is told of him. WILLIAM, Boston 1670. In 1834 Farmer count. ten gr. of this name at Yale, eight at Harv. four at Dartm. and thirteen at other N. E. coll. WROTHAM, or WROTHOM, SIMON, Farmington 1653, freem. 1654, by w. Sarah had three ch.

JOHN, Boston, younger br. of the preced. rem. to Scituate, there, as Deane shows, had John, b. 1670; but Deane, 384, borrows, from Thomas, Abigail, and other ch. On rem. from B. he gave, by deed of 1671, his prop. then in B. to his mo. Elizabeth Fitch. THOMAS, Scituate, had come in the Castle, 1638, from Tenterden, Co. Kent, as from the will of Peter Branch in Geneal. Reg. II. 183, is presum. It seems to be that of a fellow-passeng. commit. only ch. under ten yrs. of age to the care of W. wh. had a S. Thomas, James, Elizabeth wh. also was the name of his w. and John and Mary; rem. to Boston bef. 1653, there prob. had Jonathan, wh. d. 10 Dec. of that yr. and Nathaniel, b. 12 Mar. 1655; and d. 2 Oct. 1656. By his will of 12 Sept. preced. pro. 28 Oct. foll. we learn most of the particulars a. the ch. and that he own. half of the windmill in B. wh. he gave to his w. and names three elder s. and two ds. beside Deborah, the inf. d. of his d. Elizabeth wh. had m. 3 Apr. 1655, John Merrick. Of the will, Thomas, and James, the two eldest s. were made excors. and Edward Tyng, and John Hull, his friends, were made overseers. In a note of Geneal. Reg. VI. 289, where is giv. abstr. of this will, the Editor doubts, that the s. Nathaniel was s. of the jr. not sen. Thomas, but in the rec. the name of the mo. is Elizabeth THOMAS, Boston, s. prob. of the preced. m. 16 Dec. 1657, Abigail, d. of the first Jacob Eliot, had Abigail, b. 6 Jan. 1659; and Thomas, 2 Apr. 1660. By w. Ruth, he had Thomas, 10 Aug. 1663; and John, 25 Sept. 1665; and soon aft. rem. to Scituate. WYER, or WIER, EDWARD, Charlestown 1658, came from Scotland, m. 5 Jan. 1659, Elizabeth Johnson, d. of William of the same, had Elizabeth b. 10 Nov. foll.; Edward; Robert; and Hannah, all bapt. 23 July 1665; Catharine, 9 Dec. 1666; [[663]] Nathaniel, 21 June 1668; Ruhamah, 25 Dec. 1670; Eleazer, 15 Dec. 1672; Zechariah, 26 Mar. 1676; Sarah, 4 July 1680; and William, 3 Oct. foll.; yet as we find neither f. nor mo. of these inf. to be adm. of Charlestown ch. in Buddington's list, we must choose to consider that good Mr. Symmes had poor rec. or ano. ch. must be presum. to wh. one or the other of the parents belong. He d. 3 May 1693, aged 71, says gr.-st. NATHANIEL, Newbury 1637, rem. aft. not a few yrs. prob. to Nantucket, had w. Sarah, and d. Mary, wh. m. it is said, John Swain; and he d. 1 Mar. 1681. PETER, York 1640 or earlier, adm. freem. of Mass. 1652, made Clk. of the writs. 1665, and reorder of the Province, by the commiss. of our Gen. Ct. 1668; and he must be the same as Weare. ROBERT, Boston, by w. Mary had John, b. 1 Nov. 1646. ROBERT, Charlestown, sec. s. of Edward, had, by w. Ruth, Robert and Timothy, and d. 14 Nov. 1709. His wid. d. 26 Dec. 1742, aged 73.

WYLEY, WEYLEY, WILLEY, WYLIE, or WILEY, JOHN, Reading, may be the passeng. in the Elizabeth and Ann, aged 25, from London, in May 1635, of wh. I would gladly tell more than is seen in the rec. that he had Susanna, b. 16 July 1655; and Sarah, 4 May 1658. TIMOTHY, Reading, perhaps s. of the preced. was freem. 1691. THOMAS, Dover 1648-69.

THOMAS, Boston, by the diligent inq. in the Geneal. Reg. III. 34, call. a tailor, said to have serv. in the Narraganset winter campaign 1675 and 6, and to have had Thomas, Daniel, Mary, Sarah, and Abigail, but dates of b. could not be found by him. At first, it is said, the name was Weymouth. THOMAS, Woburn, s. of Francis of the same, m. 5 May 1696, Mary, d. of Nathaniel Richardson of the same, had Thomas, b. 12 May 1697; Josiah, 18 Mar. 1700; Phineas, 1701; Timothy, 1 Mar. 1702; Benjamin, 12 June 1704; John, 6 July 1706; Mary, 10 Mar. 1708; Aaron, 6 Dec. 1709; Eleazer, 13 Apr. 1712; Nathaniel, 18 May 1716; Elizabeth 19 Dec. 1718; and he d. 4 Sept. 1731.

Farmer in 1834 counts the gr. of this name, seven at Harv. and two at other N. E. coll. WYTHERDEN. See Witherden. YALE, DAVID, Boston, came prob. with his f.-in-law, Gov. Eaton, in 1637, by w. Ursula (perhaps brot. from Wales, where was the home of his f. David, yet more prob. that he took her in Boston, tho. we kno. not her f.) had Elizabeth b. May 1644, d. in few wks.; David, 18 Sept. 1645; Theophilus, 14 Jan. 1652, and soon aft. rem. perhaps home to Eng. He own. some ld. at New Haven, and may have liv. there two or three yrs. and even have had Joseph there, as on p. 24 of the "Yale fam." is presum. tho. to me is seems not prob. how Farmer was led to make him freem. 1640, is strange, for his name is not on the list, nor was he a mem. of the ch. of B. but he sympathiz. with the oppon. of our commun. wh. prob. induc. him to abandon our country. Gov. Hopkins wh. had m. his sis. Ann, in his will, made at London, 17 Mar. 1657, left him L200. ELIHU, New Haven, s. of the first Thomas, as Dr. Stiles positively says, tho. in more recent times, some at New Haven have doubted it, and offer very good presumpt. that he was s. of David, quot. the entry of the Merch. Taylor's sch. in London, where he was adm. 1 Sept. 1662, went home in his youth, and a. 1678, preceed. to the E. Indies, there resid. twenty yrs. and went home with large est. and three ds. two of wh. m. into noble fams. and he d. in London, 22 July 1721. His monum. is at Wrexham, in Co. Denbigh, bordering on Cheshire. The assid. antiquary, N. B. Shurtleff, in Geneal. Reg. IV. 245, in a brief, but comprehens. notice, slightly varying from Stiles, that is giv. in note to Winthrop II. 217, shows how he was Gov. of the E. I. comp. and by his munificent legacy gain. the endur. credit, of founder of the flourish. instit. of Yale College in his native city. JOHN, New Haven, eldest s. of Thomas of the same, is in the list of proprs. 1685, and that was all that could be seen of him bef. the appear. of the Geneal. 1850, by a descend. of the same ancest. In that tract we learn, that, by w. Rebecca, whose surname is not told, he had John, b. 3 June 1694, when both parents had acquir. mature age (and of this s. it is carefully told, [[667]] that he d. 11 Dec. 1711, aged 17 yrs. 6 mos. and 7 ds); Elihu, 30 Mar. 1696; Abigail, 16 Nov. 1697; and David, 8 Oct. 1699; and d. 16 Dec. 1711, so few days aft. his s. of the same name, aged 65. His wid. d. 17 Oct. 1734, aged 78. NATHANIEL, New Haven, s. of Thomas of the same, was a propr. 1685, but little more was kn. of him, until in the fam. geneal. it is relat. that he m. 21 Oct. 1692, Ruth, d. of Hon. James Bishop, had David, b. 25 Sept. 1693; James, 31 July 1695, d. at 4 yrs.; Ann, 21 Aug. 1697; and Nathaniel, 31 Dec. 1702; and d. 29 Oct. 1730. His wid. d. June 1738 or 9, the Geneal. leav. the yr. uncert. THEOPHILUS, Boston, s. of David of the same, had very slight connex. I believe, at any time, with his native place, exc. that, in 1675, he advanc. passage-money for Edward Kidder, a shoemaker of Derbysh. to come over, wh. should serve therefor four yrs. THOMAS, New Haven, s. of David, b. in Wales, came prob. in 1637 to Boston, with Theophilus Eaton, wh. had m. for his sec. w. the wid. mo. of Thomas, and with his f.-in-law, went in 1638 to plant at New Haven; there sign. the planta. covenant, 1639, m. Mary, eldest d. of Capt. Nathaniel Turner, had John, b. a. 1645; Thomas, a. 1646; Elihu, said by Dr. Stiles to have been b. 5 Apr. 1648, but some doubt, whether he was s. of Thomas, or even b. in New Haven, suggest. that he may have been s. of the br. David, or even br. but the town rec. contains not the b. of either of the three; Mary, 16 Oct. 1650; Nathaniel, 3 Jan. 1653; Martha, 6 May 1655, bapt. 18 Mar. 1660, wh. d. under 16 yrs.; Abigail, 5 May 1660, bapt. perhaps, 22 July foll.; Hannah, 6 July 1662; and Elizabeth 29 Jan. 1667; was rep. 1672, and d. 27 Mar. 1683. His est. by inv. of 7 May foll. was L479. and in 1684 it was distrib. to the wid. three s. (Elihu not nam. but he may have declin. to partake) and four ds. of wh. Mary had m. Jan. 1673, Joseph Ives; Hannah, m. 9 May 1682, Enos Talmadge; and Elizabeth m. 30 July 1688, Joseph Pardee. His wid. d. 15 Oct. 1704. THOMAS, New Haven, s. of the preced. was made freem. 1668, m. 11 Dec. 1667, Rebecca, d. of William Gibbard, had Hannah, b. 27 July 1669; and rem. to Wallingford, had there Rebecca, 2 Oct. 1671; Elizabeth 25 July 1673; Theophilus, 13 Nov. 1675; Thomas, 20 Mar. 1679; Nathaniel, 12 July 1681; Mary, 27 Aug. 1684, d. under 19 yrs.; and John, 8 Dec. 1687; took sec. w. 8 Feb. 1689, Sarah, d. of John Nash, wh. d. 27 May 1716, and he took third w. 31 July foll. but had no ch. by either, and d. 26 Jan. 1736. YARDLEY, JOHN, Braintree 1688, as found by Felt. YATES, FRANCIS, Wethersfield, rem. 1641 to Stamford, says Hinman, but I judge him the same wh. was of Hempstead 1647, made a freem. of Conn. 1658, and perhaps at last a resid. at West Chester, in the prov. of New York, where he made his will, 1682, pro. and rec. in N. Y. [[668]] by wh. are nam. five ch. Mary, John, Dinah, Jonathan, and Dorothy. GEORGE, made freem. of Conn. 1658, may have been br. of the preced. HENRY, Guilford 1669, there d. Jan. 1705, in his will giv. all his prop. to the ch. and to deac. John Meigs,and thus we may assume tho. the amount was only L61. that he had no w. nor ch. JOHN, Duxbury, by w. Mary had John, b. 15 Aug. 1650; perhaps rem. to Eastham, and d. soon, for his wid. m. Oct. 1651, Richard Higgins of E. JOHN, Eastham, perhaps s. of the preced. m. 11 Jan. 1700, Abigail Rogers, prob. d. of Lieut. James. One JOHN, perhaps the same, if the spell. of the name on the roster, Yeates, may mean the same (as in the Boston rec. we call Yeale, Yale), was a soldier in Moseley's comp. Dec. 1675. WILLIAM is the name of a passeng. aged 14, in the Abigail from London 1635, of wh. no more is kn. YEALES, TIMOTHY, Weymouth, m. at Boston, Naomi, d. of George Frye of W. had Ann, b. 25 Apr. 1673, d. prob. young; Ann, again, 7 May 1679; and Nehemiah, 17 Sept. 1689; perhaps others. YELINGS, ROGER, Boston, by w. Elizabeth had John, b. 30 Aug. 1680; and David, 12 Aug. 1682. YELL, or YEAL, JOHN, Ipswich, m. says Mr. Felt, 27 July 1690, Joanna Smith, had Elizabeth b. 15 June 1691; and John, 20 June 1694; and d. 20 Jan. 1701. YEO, or YOW, SAMUEL, I find in the Essex rec. 1653, as is also ALLEN; but the name is giv. Yew, and sometimes is spell. Yeow, and in Drake's valua. Hist. of Boston, 800, is Yow. THOMAS, Boston, m. Sarah, d. of David Phippen or Phippeny of Hingham, bef. Nov. 1650, as the will of P. calls him s.-in-law, but Elizabeth b. 1 Oct. 1652; and Thomas, 24 Apr. 1654; perhaps more. Our col. Rec. IV. shows that in 1652 he was one of the projectors of the conduit in Ann street, long a valua. supply of pure water, and discontin. in the present century. I think he had a br. Charles, at Bristol, Eng. YEOMANS, EDMUND, Charlestown, by our Col. Rec. III. had w. Susanna, and sold beer in 1650; but he is not seen as a householder there in 1658. He may be the man of Haverhill, 1666, by Coffin, in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 168, call. Edward. EDWARD, Boston, m. 21 June 1652, Elizabeth d. of Thomas Joslin, Jocelin, or Josselin, had Edward, b. 6 May 1657; and perhaps other ch. but he d. not long aft. for his wid. m. 9 May 1662, Edward Kilby. EDWARD and JOHN, early sett. of Plainfield. a. 1700, may have been s. of the preced. YESCUTT, RICHARD, Ipswich, with w. Alice, giv. me by Mr. Felt, prob. came to N. E. too late for adm. in this work. YORK, or YORKE, BENJAMIN, Dover, s. of Richard, prob. of the same, was first tax. there 1677. JAMES, Stonington, had first liv. at [[669]] Braintree, where his s. James was b. 14 June 1648; was freem. of Conn. 1666, but when he d. is not heard. JAMES, Stonington 1670, s. of the preced. freem. 1673, sold the yr. preced. his est. in Boston, and d. early, perhaps in 1678, for his wid. Deborah m. 12 Mar. 1679, Henry Eliot. JOHN, Dover, prob. s. of Richard of the same, took o. of fidel. 1669, had w. Ruth, perhaps was of North Yarmouth 1684. RICHARD, Dover 1648, was prob. f. of Benjamin, Edward, and John, and d. early in 1674, his inv. being of 27 Mar. He left wid. Elizabeth SAMUEL, Gloucester, by w. Hannah had John, b. 1695, but some yrs. bef. had liv. at North Yarmouth. This s. and ano. (Thomas) d. says Babson, 1699, and the f. d. 18 Mar. 1718, aged 73. But in his will he ment. other ch. all prob. elder, Samuel, wh. had three s. Samuel; Benjamin; Richard; beside three m. ds. YOUDALL, PHILIP, Gloucester, of wh. nothing good is told by Babson,and no w. or ch. ment. nor any date giv. by him, 183, exc. that of 1648 in connex. with some offence. YOUNG, CHRISTOPHER, Salem 1638, came from Yarmouth, Co. Norf. by w. Priscilla had Sarah, bapt. 2 Dec. of that yr.; Ruth, Mar. 1641; Judith, 1 Jan. 1643, d. soon; and Christopher, 18 Feb. 1644; and d. at Wenham 1647, betw. 19 June, date of his will, and 8 July, when it was pro. See Essex Inst. II. 6 By our Col. rec. II. 272, it is seen that discretion in our Ct. control the affection of the testator, by wh. he directs his childr. to be sent to Eng. Coffin, in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 169, has some slight variat. from the names and dates, but my bapt. are sure. Sarah m. 20 Mar. 1662, I suppose, John Marsh. DAVID, Eastham, s. of the first John of the same, m. 20 Jan. 1688, Ann, d. of John Doane of the same, had Abigail, b. 28 Dec. foll.; Rebecca, 24 Oct. 1689; Ann, 5 Oct. 1691; Hannah, 6 Sept. 1693; John, 20 Mar. 1695; Priscilla, 26 June 1697; Dorcas, 16 Dec. 1699; David, 25 Sept. 1701; Lois, 2 Nov. 1704; Esther, 16 Nov. 1708; and Henry, 23 Mar. 1711. EDWARD, Boston 1675, a fisherman, perhaps is the same, wh. by Coffin is ment. at Newbury, having w. Hannah, and ch. Thomas, b. 17 Jan. 1691; and Richard, 7 Sept. 1693. GEORGE, Scituate 1660, m. 15 Jan. 1662, Hannah, d. of Thomas Pinson, had Thomas, b. 5 Nov. 1663; Hannah, 1666; Margery, 1669; Elizabeth 1671; and Patience, 1673; as Deane, 393, tells. GILES, Boston, by w. Ruth had Susanna, b. 5 July 1672; and Naomi, 16 Dec. 1680. HENRY, Concord, was of Wheeler's comp. and 2 Aug. 1675, at Brookfield, mort. wound. by the ind. at the same time with Capt. edward Hutchinson. HENRY, Eastham, youngest s. of the first John of the same, by w. Sarah had Martha, b. 28 July 1695; Elizabeth 18 Jan. 1698; Reliance, 3 Mar. 1700; Moses, 15 Nov. 1702; Thomas, 24 Oct. 1705; and the f. d. 26 Apr. foll. JOHN, [[670]] Plymouth 1643, had perhaps the George bef. ment. and John, b. 9 Nov. 1649. JOHN, Salem 1638, rem. prob. to Charlestown, and d. 29 Dec. 1672. JOHN, Eastham, by w. Abigail m. 13 Dec. 1648, had John, b. at Plymouth (where his w. had liv.), 16 Nov. 1649; Joseph, 12 Nov. 1651, d. soon; Joseph, again, dec. 1654; Nathaniel, Apr. 1656; Mary, 28 Apr. 1658; Abigail, Oct. 1660; David, 17 Apr. 1662; Lydia, 1664; Robert, Apr. 1667; Henry, July 1669, d. in few mos.; and Henry, again, 17 Mar. 1672; and d. 29 Jan. 1691. His wid. d. 7 Apr. 1692. Mary m. 3 Mar. 1677, Daniel Smith; and Abigail m. 3 Jan. 1683, Stephen Twining. JOHN, Portsmouth, had John, b. 1649, perhaps others. JOHN, Southold, L. I. 1662, had, perhaps, been of Windsor 1641, whence he rem. bef. 1650, and in that yr. sold his est. at W. was by S. employ as agent to manage affairs with Conn. jurisdict. and Hammond has in his Index, mark. him as rep. but not so print. him in the body of the Vol. was a capt. and so much betrust, by the Gen. Ct. of Conn. that he was made a magistr. over that part of L. I. wh. the people of Conn. hoped to extort from the weakness of the Dutch; and he was, in 1663, by act of the Ct. put in nominat. for an Assist. That he was never chos. was prob. the conseq. of the conquest of N. Y. from the Dutch, and royal gr. to the Duke of York. Oft. this man's name appears in Conn. Col. rec. without the u. and once an addit. es is seen; and I am much inclined to believe that he was s. of the Rev. John Youngs. JOHN, Exeter, perhaps s. of John of Portsmouth, took o. of alleg. 1677, was k. by the Ind. 10 June 1697. JOHN, Eastham, eldest s. of John of the same, m. Ruth, d. of Daniel Cole of the same. JOSEPH, Salem 1638, of wh. I kn. only that he was one of a Comtee. in early days, to adjust the line of boundary betw. S. and Ipswich. See Col. Rec. II. JOSEPH, Eastham, br. of the preced. m. 23 Oct. 1679, Sarah Davis, prob. d. of Robert of Barnstable, had Samuel, b. 23 Sept. 1680; Joseph and Isaac, tw. 19 Dec. 1682; James, 4 Apr. 1685; and perhaps others. MATTHEW, Hartford, apprent. of William Williams to learn the trade of a cooper, in 1658 assent. to transfer to ano. master; and that is all I hear of him. NATHANIEL, Eastham, s. of the first John of the same, left wid. Mercy, wh. m. 10 June 1708, Nathaniel Mayo of the same. PAUL, Boston, d. 1641, perhaps sudden. at least we see in Col. Rec. I. 318, that a commissn. to sett. his est. ws giv. by the Gen. Ct. RICHARD, by Farmer giv. as the freem. of 1652 at Kittery, but was of Cape Porpus, when he d. left wid. Margery, wh. ret. inv. 18 Feb. 1673, for L124. ROBERT, York, perhaps br. of Rowland, took o. of alleg. 22 Mar. 1681. ROBERT, Eastham, s. of the first John of the same, m. 22 Mar. 1694, Joanna Hicks, whose f. is not told, had Robert, b. 11 Apr. 1695, d. at 2 mos. Robert, again, 11 Dec. 1696; Lydia, 29 May 1699; Joanna, 1 [[671]] June 1703; and Jennet, 22 May 1708. ROWLAND, York, freem. 1652, sw. alleg. 22 Mar. 1681, may have been f. or rather gr.f. of the Rowland, a boy, prisoner in Canada, 1695, wh. is call. of Dover. THOMAS, perhaps of Warwick, m.Elizabeth d. of Richard Harcutt of W. but he may have come from L. I. or at least went thither. THOMAS, Scituate, s. of George, m. Sarah, eldest d. of Peregrine White, wh. long outliv. him, and d. 9 Aug. 1755, aged almost 92 yrs. had George, b. 1689; Joseph, 1692, d. young; Sarah, 1695; Thomas, 1698, d. young; Thomas, again, 1700; Joseph, again, 1701; Ebenezer, 1703; Joshua, 1704; and Isaac, 1706; and d. 25 Dec. 1732. See Boston Newsletter of 29 Aug. 1755. One Thomas I find of New Hampsh. among the petnrs. in Feb. 1690, for protect. of Mass. Farmer counts the gr. of this name at Harv. five, Yale, four, and other N. E. coll. four up to 1834. YOUNGLOVE, JAMES, Brookfield, d. without fam. and his br. John had admin. on his est. ret. inv. 13 Jan. 1667. JOHN, Hadley, perhaps s. of Samuel of Ipswich, was appoint. as appears by Col. Rec. IV. part 2d in 1667, with John Pynchon of Springfield, a Comtee. for Quaboag, aft. nam. Brookfield, freem. 1676, with prefix of respect, as he had preach. there a yr. or two, with no great satisfact. sch.-master at H. six or seven yrs. and was a preach. at the settlem. of Suffield 1681, in that Co. and there met no better accept. than at B. d. 1690, leav. wid. Sarah and ch. four s. and three ds. John; Samuel, b. 10 Feb. 1677, at H.; James; Joseph, 6 Nov. 1682, at S.; Mary, w. of Thomas Smith; Hannah, wh. bec. 1695, w. of George Norton; and Lydia, wh. m. 1693, George Granger. But he had also Sarah, wh. m. 1682, John Taylor, and d. next yr. with new b. ch. Prob. he was never ord. and when the Court advis. him to cease preach. it may derogate nothing from his moral worth, for as my correspond. says, "he may have had an unhppy temper, but it is not unlikely that the temp. of the people was worse than his." The wid. d. 17 Jan. 1711. SAMUEL, Ipswich, came in the Hopewell, Capt. Babb, in the autumn of 1635, aged 30; with w. Margaret, 28; and Samuel, 1 yr.; prob. had other ch. aft. arr. perhaps James; certain. Joseph; and d. in 1668, then call. 62 yrs. old. as Coffin gives it in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 169, with the name of Simon. SAMUEL, Ipswich, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. wheelwright, was adm. freem. 1671, m. 1 Aug. 1660, Sarah Kinsman, had Sarah, b. 5 Feb. 1663; Samuel, 30 Oct. 1665, d. soon; Mary, 17 Mar. 1668; Samuel, again, 27 July perhaps for the yr. is indistinct) 1671; Mercy, 25 May 1676; and John, 29 Aug. 1677. On his est. admin. was gr. 23 Jan. 1707, when the wid. was call. Mary, and she soon aft. sold to the same John her share of the prop. Sarah m. 20 June 1684, John Shatswell. YOUNGMAN, FRANCIS, Roxbury, m. 2 Dec. 1685, Ann, wid. of the [[672]] third Isaac Heath of the same, had Jonathan, b. 9 Oct. 1686; Cornelius, 1 Sept. 1688; Ebenezer, 2 Nov. 1690; Ann, 1 Dec. 1695; Elizabeth 17 Jan. 1699; and Leah, 4 May 1701, d. the same mo.; beside John, whose b. is not seen, but his d. is on the rec. 26 July 1711; as is also that of the f. 23 July of next yr. YOUNGS, or YONGS, JOHN, Southold, L. I. a min. of St. Margarets, Co. Sufflk. aged 35, with Joan his w. 34, and six ch. John, Thomas, Ann, Rachel, Mary, and Joseph, would have come to Salem, in N. E. in the Mary Ann from Great Yarmouth, May 1637, with many other passeng. of wh. was the wid. of learn. William Ames, the Professor at Franequer, as is seen in a collect. of rec. at Westminster, with copy of wh. her majesty's keeper of those treasures favored me; and in the margin of this part is insert. "This man was forbyden passage by the Commissnrs. and went not from Yarmouth." Probably the scivener had no idea of a negative pregnant, as the lawyer says, in his mind, when he made that entry, but may have suppos. that the power of the great archbp. the imperious and foolish Laud, would forever restrain that migrat. As the whole complication of ecclesiast. impolicy was overthrown three yrs. aft. the puritan's desire was then, if not earlier gratif. One report places him at New Haven 1638-40. I presume that Wood, in his Hist. of L. I. where he makes Y. a min. at Hingham, Eng. and to come to New Haven with part of his church in 1640, and to begin the settlem. of Southold, in Oct. of that yr. foll. tradit. of the neighb. and may be more trustworthy, as Farmer quotes him, where he says, he d. 1672, in his 74th yr. JOHN, Southold, L. I. eldest s. of the preced. (wh. is duly commeno. under Young), was, in 1681, under the governm. of the Duke of York, sheriff of the whole insular territo. as Wood tells, and d. in his 75th yr. 1698. JOSEPH, Southold, L. I. sen. and JOSEPH, jr. of the same, adm. freemen of Conn. 1662, were prob. br. and s. of the Rev. John, or possib. s. and gr.s. tho. less prob. ROBERT, York, k. by the Ind. betw. York and Kittery 16 or 22 Aug. 1690. THOMAS, Greenwich 1673, and of Oyster Bay, on the opposite coast of L. I. 1682, may have been s. of Rev. John, brot. from Eng. ZECHARIAH, LEWIS, Ipswich 1675, is all that Mr. Felt can tell a. this person, whose surname may have changed places with the bapt. as Farmer found Merry Waters. Yet I have no acquaint. with Zechariah Lewis, not even so much as with Lewis Zechariah. The name of Daniel Zechary in Boston, turns up in 1706. ZULLESH, DAVID, freem. of Mass. 18 May 1642, is the last name on the long list of that day's adm. as well as the latest in the labor of this Dictionary, wh. closes with regret that no further report of him can be afford, nor can any conject. be hazard, even for his resid. It hardly [[673]] seems like an Eng. name, and f. mo. br. sis. w. or ch. are unkn. As approxim. to so unusual a surname, I have seen nothing but Mr. Zellick, a merchant at New Haven, 1647, only as a transient visitor, if even he were not far remote, whose goods of £200. value were attach. there by Mr. Pell, no doubt Thomas, one of the chief men there. I suppose he was a Dutchman from Manhattan; and that his name was by Boston folks turn. into Sellock.
