CONTRARY to my intention, this third volume is larger than the second, and I fear that the fourth, of which nearly one half is already printed, may not be confined in fewer pages than the present. My apology will, probably, be accepted by all subscribers, for it was most reasonable that each volume should begin with a _new_ letter.

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.

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.

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.

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. EDWARD, Boston 1645, a sawyer, liv. at Muddy riv. had Reuben, bapt. 30 June 1653; and Elizabeth b. 27 Jan. bapt. 4 Mar. 1655, both at Roxbury, in right of their mo.

To the dilig. fondness of Payne Kenyon K. of Litchfield, Esq. in 1847, were we indebt. for a copious memor. of predecess. and descend. in 140 pages, wh. is multipl. threefold in 1856. THOMAS, wh. came in the Elizabeth, from Ipswich, 1634, aged 24, with w. Elizabeth 20, was eldest s. of the preced. bapt. 30 Nov. 1609, sent by the f. in adv. to make prepar. for the fam. migrat. but no more is kn. of him, so that it is not improb. that soon aft. his f. arr. he went home. THOMAS, Hartford, s. of the first John, m. Hannah, a. of William Hills, had Thomas, b. a. 1677; John; Mary, 1686; Naomi, 1693; and Samuel, 1696. Prob. the last three d.young, for they are not nam. in settlem. of the est. aft. his d. 1712. KILBY, CHRISTOPHER, Boston, by w.

I presume his wid. m. 11 Oct. 1704 Ezekiel Lewis. WILLIAM, Boston 1649, in few yrs. was of Charlestown with w. Grace, and call. a sieve-maker; may have had d. Sarah m. to Richard Wilson bef. Aug. 1654, tho. in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 277, a differ. conject. is giv. KILHAM, KILLAM, KILLUM, KELHAM, or KEELUM, AUSTIN, or AUGUSTINE, Salem 1637, had then, says Felt, a gr. of ld. but was of Dedham soon after, and may have short time liv. at Ipswich; by w. Alice had Lot, b. 11 Sept. 1640; and Sarah, 4 Jan. 1642; was freem. 2 June 1641. He was of the ch. at Wenham bef. 1655, when he rem. to Chelmsford. DANIEL, Wenham, ar. co. 1645.

Mar. 1667; James, May 1669, d. soon; Ephraim, June 1672, d. soon; Ruth, Sept. 1673, d. in one day; Ruth, again, 15 Jan. 1676; went to Enfield, d. 26 Oct. 1683, being the first d. in the town. He had James, and prob. other ch. KILTON, ROBERT, is on the list of Gallop's comp. in Phips's crusade against Quebec 1690, but of what town he was inhab. or of any thing else a. him, we are ign. yet of THOMAS in the comp. of Capt. Withington of Dorchester in the same disastr. expedit. our kn. is no larger. See the Hist. of D. 256. KIMBALL, sometimes KEMBALL, BENJAMIN, Rowley 1664, prob. s. of Richard, had been, 1659, perhaps of Exeter, m. Apr. 1661, Mary, d. of Robert Hazeltine, had Ann, b. 22 Dec. foll. was freem. 1682.

EPHRAIM, Wenham, freem. 1690. GILES, Charlestown 1656, br. of Thomas, d. at Boston, 1 Aug. 1659. HENRY, Watertown, prob. br. of Richard the first, came in the Elizabeth, 1634, from Ipswich, aged 44, with w. Susanna, 35; ch. Elizabeth 4; and Susan, 1 and 1/2; and serv. Richard Cutting, 11; freem. 2 May 1638; had John, b. 5 Mar. 1638, d. soon; Mary, 26 Nov. 1641; Richard, 13 Oct. 1643; and John, again, 25 Dec. 1645; and d. 1648, his inv. being of 22 July. His wid. m. again, and d. 19 Aug. 1684. Elizabeth m. Capt. Thomas Straight, and Susanna m. John Randall, both of W. HENRY, Ipswich 1640, eldest s. of Richard the first, perhaps sett. first at Watertown, and from Ipswich rem. and may have been the blacksmith of Boston, 1657, wh. had w.

[[22]] 1656, Sarah, that I presume to be d. of John Fownell, wh. d. 10 Aug. foll. He m. sec. w. Mary, d. of Thomas Brigden, had Zechary, Mary, Sarah, and Henry. HENRY, Wenham, d. prob. early in 1676, for wid. Elizabeth had admin. 30 June of that yr.

JOHN, Amesbury, took o. of fidel. 20 Dec. 1677, and was made freem. 1690. JOHN, Boxford, freem. 1690. RICHARD, Watertown, prob. br. of Henry of the same came from Ipswich, 0. E. 1634, aged 39, in the Elizabeth, with w. Ursula; ch. Henry, 15; Richard, 11; Mary, 9; Martha, 5; John, 3; and Thomas, 1; and serv. John Laverick, 15; was freem. 6 May 1635; rem. 1638 to Ipswich, there had more ch. and d. 1675, leav. Henry, Richard, Mary, Thomas, Benjamin, Elizabeth Caleb, Sarah, and ano. d. w. of John Severns. He is call. by Thomas Scott (a passeng. with w. and fam. in the same sh.) br. and this may mean, that one m. a sis. of the other, or they m. sis. but in this case not, I judge. the mere ch. relationsh. 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. RICHARD, Bradford, s. of Richard, b. in Eng. long liv. in Ipswich, but was of B. when freem. 1685. SAMUEL, Wenham, freem. 1682. SAMUEL, Boston, mariner, perhaps eldest s. of Thomas of the same, may have been a soldier in Moseley's comp. in Dec. 1675, and d. 1684, on ret. voyage and his f. took admin. THOMAS, Charlestown 1653, merch. by w.

He was bur. on Copp's hill, d. 29 Jan. 1689, was b. 15 Jan. 1622. Sarah m. Richard Knight of Boston, and attain. no little celebr. as skil. in trade and observant of manners. See Knight. THOMAS, Ipswich, s. of Richard, an early sett. of that pt. of Rowley, that aft. was call. Bradford, had eight ch. of wh. the eldest was Richard. He was k. by the Ind. 3 May 1676, when [[23]] his w. Mary and five ch. Joanna, Thomas, Joseph, Priscilla, and John, were tak. prison. carr. a. forty miles into the wilderness, and allow. to come home 13 June foll. His est. was good. THOMAS, Dover 1660. This name is spell. oft. Kemble. Ten had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and twenty two at other coll. in N. E. KIMBERLY, ABRAHAM, New Haven, s. of Thomas, by w. Hannah, wh. was bapt. on adm. of the ch. prob. 24, certain. not (as the rec. in Geneal. Reg. IX. 360, says) 25 July 1659, wh. was Monday, had Hannah, b. 11 Jan. 1656; Sarah, bapt. July 1659, d. young; Mary, b. 1668; Sarah, 1672; Abraham, 1675; and fam. tradit. says, went to S. Carolina, and there was k. by the Ind. These ch. were all b. in Albemarle Co. of Carolina. His wid. came home, and m. John Curtis of Stratford, and there she had put on rec. the b. of ea. of the ch. Mary m. John Blakeman, and Sarah m. Benjamin Hurd. With this fam. 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. Col. John Allyn, as Secr. of the Col. and so cont. to his d. Feb. 1709. He left s. Thomas, and four ds. refer. to in his will, two m. and two, Elizabeth and Ruth, unm. NATHANIEL, New Haven, s. of Thomas, had Nathaniel, b. 4 Jan. 1667; Elizabeth and two other ds. Apr. 1679, one without name, the other, Sarah. THOMAS, Dorchester 1635, had w. Alice, with wh. he rem. to New Haven 1639; his est. was then small. His w. by wh. he had Eleazer, bapt. 17 Nov. 1639; and Abiah, 19 Dec. 1641; beside five or six others, d. 1659, at New Haven; he m. ano. w. Mary, wid. of William Preston, and rem. to Stratford, there d. 1673; in his will of 11 Jan. of that yr. he names his s. Thomas, Abraham, Nathaniel, and Eleazer, w. Marg and sev. ds. Of these Hannah was b. so late as 1656; Abiah m. a Boardman, and she and three ch. are refer. to in his will; and Mary m. Nathaniel Hayes, prob. and her 3 ch. Nathaniel, Elizabeth and Mary, are nam. in it. THOMAS was freem. 1669, had w. Hannah, and with Nathaniel, propr. at New Haven 1685; but T. had no ch. and it is said Nathaniel left s. of the same name. 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. KINCAID, DANIEL, New Hampsh. came, 1689, prob. from Scotland. KIND, ARTHUR, Boston, by w. Jane had Sarah, b. Nov. 1646; James, wh. d. 9 July 1654; Mary, wh. d. 27 Oct. 1655; James, again, 29 Oct. 1655; Nathaniel, May 1658; Thomas, 26 Sept. 1659; Mary, 27 Apr. 1662; and William, 26 Feb. 1665.

BENJAMIN, Northampton, s. of John of the same, m. 16 May 1700, Mary, d. of Abel James, had Elisha, b. 11 Nov. 1717, the only ch. and he d. 20 Jan. foll. His wid. m. 1721, Jonathan Graves. CLEMENT, Marshfield, by Miss Thomas, in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 192, is favor. with w. Susanna, wh. d. or was bur. [[24]] 19 June 1669; but whose s. or whose d. when b. or m. is not to be easi. kn. 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. Daniel, Hannah, w. of John Blaney, Elizabeth Redding, and Sarah, w. of Ezekiel Needham. His wid. Elizabeth wh. had been wid. Corwin, says Lewis, d. 26 Feb. 1677 or 8. His est. was very good. DANIEL, Charlestown 1658, s. prob. of the preced. was, perhaps, of Salem 1676, but intermed. at Lynn, m. 11 Mar. 1663, Tabitha Walker, had Richard b. 1 Mar. 1668; Tabitha, 6 Jan. 1670; John; Sarah, 11 Apr. 1672; Elizabeth 19 Mar. 1674. John has a date, giv. by Felt, but as it is inconsist. with the one that precedes him, it is mark. here as the other may be erron. DAVID, Westfield, br. of Benjamin, by w. Abigail had David, b. 1702; Thankful, 1704; Moses, 1706; Stephen, 1708; Benjamin, 1710; Aaron, 1714; Asahel, and Eldad, tw. 1718, of wh. the first nam. d. soon; and Gideon, 1722; rem. to a new planta. now Sheffield, and d. 1710. In his will he nam. all the ch. exc. Asahel. EDWARD, Windsor, an Irish serv. had gr. of ld. 1663, liv. on Long Isl. when he d. 1702; had two ds. nam. Mary Hilliard and Sarah Cady, req. adm. on his est. Their h.'s names are not found. Perhaps there were other ch.

GEORGE, freem. of Mass. 18 Apr. 1637, came in the Hercules, 1634, and by Farmer is set down as Newbury, but he must soon have rem. for Coffin names him not. HENRY, came in the James from Southampton, 1635, is call. a laborer, but I hear no more of him. HEZEKIAH, Weymouth, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 10 Oct. 1679; and Samuel, 20 Apr. 1686; and prob. others. Isaac, Weymouth, a soldier in capt. Johnson's comp. in the gr. Narraganset fight, 19 Dec 1675, when he was wound. Prob. he is call. Hezekiah in that list of Geneal. Reg. VIII. 242.

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. Sarah Holton, d. of John; but part of this is erron. for he m. 18 Nov. 1656, Sarah, d. of William Holton, wh. of course, was sis. not d. of John; had John, b. July 1657; William, 28 Mar. 1660; Thomas, 14 July 1662 ; Samuel, 6 Jan. 1665; Eleazer, 26 Mar. 1667, wh. d. at 32 yrs. unm.; Joseph, 23 Mar. 1669, a. next yr.; Sarah, 3 May 1671; Joseph, again, 8 May 1673; Benjamin, 1 Mar. 1675; [[25]] Thankful, Sept. 1679; David, 1677, or 1681; and Jonathan, 25 Apr. 1683; and his w. d. 8 May foll.; was rep. 1679 and 89; m. sec. w.

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.

MOSES, Greenwich 1670, br. of the preced. prob. youngest, but perhaps was only a ld. holder, and never liv. at G. but at Stamford as early as 1667, and there his f. gave him ld. by his will; m. a. 1669, Abigail, d. of Richard Wescoat. 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. Elinor had Jonathan, wh. was bur. 27 Dec. 1631; Timothy, b. 14 Dec. 1632; Joshua, 5 Jan. 1635; Caleb, 20 Jan. 1637; Sarah, 5 Jan. 1639; Ruth, 6 Jan. 1641; and Hannah, 6 Mar. 1643; rem. to Stamford, there, I suppose, had Moses, and Lydia. His w. Elinor d. 16 Aug. 1658, and he m. 9 Mar. foll. Unity, wid. of Peter Brown, wh. had been wid. of Clement Buxton; d. Apr. 1670. His will of 15 of that mo. names four s. Caleb, Joshua, Moses, Timothy; and four ds. Sarah, Hannah, Lydia, and Ruth. Sarah m. 6 Sept. 1667, Peter Disbrough; and Ruth m. 20 Nor. foll. Joseph Ferris. ROGER, New Haven 1643-7, Fairfield 1656-70, and prob. later, had made his will 21 Mar. 1673; nam. w. Elizabeth and ch. Jonathan, Josiah, Lydia, Roger, John, Nathaniel, Elizabeth and Mary, some of wh. were minors, and his inv. is of 20 Sept. 1675.

Sarah, aged 9 yrs. and Mary, 6, when admin. was issu. 28 May 1697. TIMOTHY, Stamford, s. perhaps eldest, of Nicholas, rep. for Rye 1670, was of Greenwich, liv. 1697. 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. His ch. were William; Mary; Elizabeth; John, b. 1624; James, 1627; Ann; and Judith. Mary m. Thomas Smith; Elizabeth m. in Eng. a Buttery; Ann m. Thomas Philbrick, but d. bef. her f. wh. in his will names her childr.; and Judith m. Nicholas Cady. WILLIAM, Watertown, s. of the preced. by w. Mary had prob. Joseph, beside Priscilla, b. 10 Nov. 1642; and by w. Margaret had Judith, b. 2 Mar. 1653; Elizabeth 23 July 1657; and, perhaps, others; left wid. Priscilla, wh. had been wid. of Thomas Akers, and s. John. Three of this name had, in 1829, been gr. at Harv. and as many at other N. E coll. KNEELAND, JOHN, Boston, one of the found. of the Scot's Charit. Soc. 1657, by w. Mary had Mary, b. 6 Oct. 1659, d. next yr.; Hannah, 18 July 1663; Mary, again, 13 Apr. 1666; John, 9 Nor. 1668; Solomon, 7 Feb. 1671; and Ruth, 30 July 1673. He a. at Roxbury, 11 Aug. 1691, aged 59. PHILIP, Lynn 1637. Several of this name have [[35]] been gr. at Harv. of wh. William, 1751, was nine yrs. a tutor, and Presid. of M. M. S. d. 2 Nov. 1788, aged 56. KNELL, KNEALE, or KNILL, JOHN, Charlestown, perhaps s. of Nicholas, rem. to Boston, had w. Elizabeth wh. bec. third w. of Nathaniel Bachiler of Hampton, 23 Oct. 1689. Ch. of K. were John, b. 13 May 1679, bapt. 12 Sept. 1680; Hannah, bapt. 1 May 1681; and Richard, b. 26, bapt. 27 May 1683. NICHOLAS, Stratford 1650, m.

His will names only w. and the two s. He seems to have been a man of some conseq. has Mr. prefix, and the ment. in town rec. of his d. calls him "that aged benefact. of the country." PHILIP, Charlestown, perhaps br. of John, by w. Ruth, m. 5 Oct. 1666, as wid. Allen, had Ruth, b. 6, bapt. 10 July 1670; Elizabeth 15, bapt. 26 Apr. 1674; and Philip, 4 July 1675, bapt. the same day. His wid. petitn. the Gov. and Counc. 30 Oct. 1697, for redress in the case of her serv. Sambo, impress. under 21 yrs. of age. His will, made at the age of 51 or 2 yrs. 18 Feb. 1689, was not pro. bef. 15 Oct. 1699. THOMAS, Salem 1677. 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. BENJAMIN, Newbury; s. of the sec. John of the same, m. Abigail, d. of Henry Jaques, had Benjamin, b. 8 Feb. 1693; Isaac, 15 Jan. 1695; Abigail, 15 Apr. 1697; Daniel, 4 Dec. 1699, d. young; Daniel, again, 11 Jan. ]702; and George, 31 Jan. 1704. CHARLES, Salem, m. 9 May 1667, Sarah Lemon, d. I presume of Robert, had Elizabeth b. 18 May 1668; Mary, 7 Apr. 1670; and Sarah, 22 July 1673; was a soldier of Gardner's comp. wound. in the gr. Narraganset fight, 19 Dec. 1675. In Essex Inst. II. 256, this name is Knite. DANIEL, York 1640, perhaps in Ind. war rem. to Lynn, d. 29 Oct. 1672. He may have been inf. s. of Jacob. 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. EZEKIEL, Wells 1645, prob. had w. and ch. in early life, and may be the same as the preced. was commiss. i. e. rep. 1661, at York, much betrust. in public serv. and aft. 1662 m. Mary, d. of Gov.

His will of 18 Apr. in that yr. pro. 16 Sept. foll. made Mr. Shubael Dummer, capt. Job Alcock, and Mr. John Bass excors. but its provis. was very plain; all est. to w. for her life, and of remaind. two parts to s. Ezekiel, and one to d. Elizabeth Wentworth of Dover, wh. is believ. to have been w. of Ezekiel W. FRANCIS, Pemaquid 1648. GEORGE, Hingham, came, 1638, in the Diligent, with w. and ch. from Barrow, a parish of Co. Suffk. near Bury St. Edmunds. GEORGE, Scarborough, d. 1671, in his will of 5 Apr. of that yr. gives to w. Elinor, s. Nathan, and a. Elizabeth His wid. m. Henry Brooking, as perhaps I may be justif. for conject. by the dark passage in Geneal. Reg. IX. 220. GEORGE, Hartford 1671, d. 19 Apr. 1698, his inv. being of 15 June next yr. leav. wid. Sarah, sev. ds. but no s. His w. was Sarah Church, d. of John, and ch. were Sarah, b. 27 Apr. 1680, wh. m. as Porter writes, 25 Dec. 1699, George Saxton; Love, 10 Sept. 1682, m. 20 Nov. 1702, Thomas Andrews; Ann, 6 Apr. 1688, m. 9 Dec. 1715, prob. as sec. w.

JOHN, Newbury, came from Southampton, 1635, in the James; was a tailor of Romsey in Hants, adm. freem. with his br. Richard 25 May 1636, had w. 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. Elizabeth m. 25 Feb. 1674, Cutting Noyes; Mary m. 13 Jan. 1681, Timothy Noyes; and Hannah m. 31 Mar. 1684, James Noyes. 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, Woburn, not s. of the first John of Charlestown, m. 2 Mar. 1681, Abigail, eldest ch. of John Craggin, had Abigail, b. 27 Dec. 1681; John, 31 Jan. 1684, d. next yr.; John, again, 3 Mar. 1686; Benjamin, 20 Mar. 1688, d. under 10 yrs.; Samuel, 27 Sept. 1690; Ebenezer, 20 Aug. 1695; Rebecca, 14 May 1698; Benjamin, 20 Oct. 1700; and Amaziah, 14 Dec. 1703. 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. Mary, and Joseph, with w. Hannah, early at Watertown, are ment. by Bond, but no issue is found in, his vol. JOSEPH, Woburn, freem. 1652, had Sarah, b. 8 Mar. 1651; Samuel, 8 Sept. 1652, d. next yr.; Hannah, 25 Mar. 1654; John, 16 Jan. 1656; Elizabeth 7 Apr. 1658; Mary, 6 June 1660, d. at 10 mos.; Dinah, 4 July 1661; Samuel, again, 18 Mar. 1663; Mary, again, 12 Dec. 1672, d. in few mos.; Joseph, 12 Dec. 1673; Edward, 31 Aug. 1677; Isaac, 24 Feb. 1680, d. next mo.; James, 22 Apr. 1681, d. next [[38]] day; Ruth, 7 May 1682; Ebenezer, 24 Aug. 1684; and Amos, 19 May 1687; but most prob. by more than one w. and quite prob. by two Josephs. The senr. d. 13 Aug. 1687, and his wid. Hannah d. 13 Jan. 1695. JOSEPH, nam. by Thomas Spaule of Boston, in his will of 23 Feb. 1671, as the h. of testator's d. Mary, and hav. childr. and to her and them mak. resid. devise aft. that to his own w. dur. wid. I guess was of B. JOSEPH, Newbury, br. of Benjamin, freem. 1684, m. 31 Oct. 1677, Deborah, prob. d. of sec. Tristram Coffin, had Judith, b. 23 Oct. 1678; John, 20 Jan. 1680, d. at 16 yrs.; Joseph, 16 Feb. 1682, d. within two yrs.; Deborah, 26 Apr. 1684; Sarah, 3 Nov. 1686; Elizabeth 18 Apr. 1690; Joseph, again, 16 Feb. 1692; Mary, 3 Sept. 1693; Tristram, 9 June 1695; John, again, 10 Dec. 1696; and Stephen, 9 Oct. 1699; was ens. and d. 29 Jan. 1723. 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. ROBERT, Kittery 1647, rem. to York, d. 1676, his will of 23 June, pro. 24 Aug. of that yr. ment. s. Richard, liv. in Boston. ROGER, Portsmouth 1631, among the people sent by Mason the patentee. Belkn. I. 425. His d. Mary m. John Bruster or Brewster of Portsmouth. SAMUEL, Roxbury, m. 16 Oct. 1685, Sarah, perhaps d. of Abraham Howe of the same, had Mehitable, b. 9 Sept. 1686, d. under 17 yrs.; Samuel, wh. d. 20 May 1689; and Ebenezer, Feb. 1694. 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. KNOLLYS, HANSERD, Dover, was b. it is said, 1598 At Cawkwell in Co. Lincoln, bred at the Univ. of Cambridge, ord. 23 June 1629, as a priest by the Bp. of Peterborough, renounc. the ch. of Eng. in 1636, and in 1638 came to N. E. tho. some Eng. books say a yr. earlier. On arr. at Boston, he w as refus. permis. of resid. thro. suspic. of antinom. taint, so that he went to N. H. jurisdict. and in 1641 home, reach. London 24 Dec. See Winthrop I. 326; II. 27.

LADD, DANIEL, Ipswich, came in the Mary and John, 1634, by tradit. call. s. of Nathaniel, was one of the first townsmen of Salisbury, a. 1639, but, perhaps, not long there, and bec. perman. inhab. of Haverhill aft. b. of one or two ch.

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. DANIEL, Haverhill, eldest s. of the preced. m. 24 Nov. 1668, Lydia Singletary, was rep. 1693, and 4. EZEKIAL, Haverhill, br. of the preced. took o. of fidel. 28 Nov. 1677.

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. Mary, sis. of Matthew and Richard Coy, had Caleb, b. 27 May, bapt. 1 June 1645, but prob. d. young; and the f. d. 6 Aug. 1677, leav. wid. 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.

He rem. to Framingham, then pt. of Sudbury, a. 1695, was constable 1700, selectman 1701, and d. bef. 1710.

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.

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.

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.

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.

He m. 19 Dec. 1665, Sarah, d. of John Picket, had Sarah, b. 24 Feb. 1667; Hannah, 26 Dec. 1668; Daniel, 27 July 1671; John, 12 July 1674; Elizabeth 31 Jan. 1677; Margaret, 18, but ano. rec. says, 25 Aug. 1679; Rebecca, 7 Mar. 1682; Jonathan, 16 Oct. 1685; and Mary, 23 Sept. 1688. In 1695 he rem. to K. there d. 12 Apr. 1718; and his wid. d. 11 Mar. 1725. He was rep. for S. 1686. SAMSON, Portsmouth 1631, one of Mason's men, said to have come from Teignmouth in Devon, purch. 1646 the est. that had been Thomas Wannerton's and was then call. master of the Neptune of Dartmouth, in 1650 mortga. the est. and his other prop. includ. a ship on the stocks to Ambrose L. bef. ment. and prob. went home.

WILLIAM, Dorchester 1641, from whose will, made 28 Feb. 1651, pro. 6 July 1654, we learn that he had s. Andrew, and George, both of Hingham, d.

Mary, d. of Thomas Brewer of Roxbury, had Sarah, 15 June 1657; William, 1 Oct. 1659; and Elizabeth 3 Feb. 1662. I testif. that both the estr. in Geneal. Reg. that are so inconsist. are truly tak. from what purports [[54]] to be the rec. in Boston, and both in the same handwrit. 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. Possib. the recorder might have intend. 22 instead of 2 May. Instances of such carelessness are oft. seen. WILLIAM, Boston, s. of the preced. m. 21 June 1680, Sarah Webster, d. of Thomas of Hampton. Six of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and seven at other N. E. coll. LANESON, JACOB, Weymouth, by w. Susanna had Abigail, b. 11 Nov. 1680; and Susanna, 24 Dec. 1683. LANFEAR. See Landfear.

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.

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

Thomas Shepard, rem. to Marshfield, where he was constable 1643, thence to Plymouth, where he m. Susanna, d. of John Winslow, in 1649, and had Mercy, b. 2 June 1650; bef. 1667 rem. to Bridgewater, had s. James, Chilton, Joseph, Elizabeth Hannah, and Sarah. Mitchell thinks him s. of William.

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.

LATTING, LETTEN, or LETTIN, JOSIAH, Huntington, or Oyster Bay, L. I. 1685, was s. prob. of Richard. 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.

In the gr. trouble of 1637 he was on the side of moderat. so far as to disappr. the banishm. of Wheelwright. He d. says the rec. 1 Mar. but Frothingham, wh. may have reason, says 5 Apr. 1646. A wid. 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.

But we kn. no more of him, exc. his punishm. for fighting a duel with ano. youth from London, and Bradford, wh. calls him Litster, 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 455, says, he went to Virg. and there d.

HENRY, Dorchester 1603, s. of the first Hopestill, rem. to Medfield, had by w.

HOPESTILL, Weymouth, in very recent time ascertain. to be the ancest. of all the numer. tribe, deriv. thro. only s. Henry, wh. was bef. thot. the progenit. of our side of the water. Perhaps he had sev. ds. beside Experience, wh. m. the first Thomas Holbrook, in Eng. He d. at Medfield, 1655, aged 75. Morse exults in his honor, as "one of the most ancient, if not the most ancient," that ever came to our country, yet presumes the time of his com. was 1624, when he, of course, could not be over 43 yrs. old. 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. HOPESTILL, Sherborn, eldest s. of Henry, had two ds. Abigail Hill, m. 5 Nov. 1678, d. 5 Oct. 1689, and Patience Holbrook; and ch.

LELLOCK, JOSEPH, Boston, found in the sec. copy of rec. to have, by w. Joanna, b. to him s. Martin, 22 Nov. 1658. As this seem. to me almost an impossib. name, occurr. in no other place of county, town, or ch. rec. I spent a good time in vain attempt to find it or any such from; wh. the pervers. might have orig. but on the older copy could not discern it, nor do I believe it was ever in the true lost rec. This instance justifies my caution to all interest. in similar inquiries, and to courts of law, not to accept certif. copies, but to call for orig. rec. LEMON, LEAMOND, or LEMOND, sometimes LEMAN, JOSEPEH, Charlestown, came in youth from Eng. where he was b. a 1662, m. 12 June 1690, Mary Bradley, had Joseph, bapt. 26 June 1692, wh. was f. of Joseph, H.

Mary, d. of William Longley, had Samuel, b. 29 Apr. 1667. He was driv. I presume, to live at Charlestown, and there was impress. into Moseley's comp. in Dec. 1675, or volunteer. to have his revenge. LENOX, RALPH, New Haven, had John, b. 1655; but some doubt is felt a. this name. LENTHALL, ROBERT, Weymouth 1637, not pleas the governm. of our col. he was forbid. to be ord. went to Newport next yr. where his name is spell.

For the effect of the preposterous falsehood on the London friend of the Coll. see Hollis's note in the invalua. Hist. of the Univ. I. 343; and we kn. that the number of students, was more than double in the last seven or ten yrs. of the rule of Leverett to what the same period of Increase Mather exhibits.

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.

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. DAVID, Springfield 1676, s. of John, had Mary, b. 1677; Margaret, 1679; Abigail, 1682; John. 1685; David, 1690; Ebenezer, 1692; and Joseph, 1696; beside two that d. soon; and he d. 17 Aug. 1716. 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. JEDEDIAH, Barnstable, s. of Thomas the first, m. 20 May 1668, Hannah Wing, had Jedediah, b. 25 Dec. 1669; Thomas, 22 June 1671; Hannah, Aug. 1673, and Experience, Apr. 1675 or 77. 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.

C. 1653, has nothing, not even date of d. to be learn. but he was liv. 1659, when f. made his will. MICHAEL, Charlestown, eldest br. of the preced. came with his f. had by w.

NICHOLAS, aged 19, came in the Blessing, 1635, from London, but no more can be told of him; and equal. ign. are we of Ellen L. a serv. of Samuel Andrens, aged 20.

He was deac. and m. 1696, Sarah, wid. of Isaac Warner.

Ten of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at the N. E. coll. chief. at Yale. LOPER, JAMES, Nantucket 1672, was the first person, says Macy's Hist. 28, that undertook the catching of whales there. See large extr. in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 311. But Felt, 11. 223, says, that his petitn. in 1688, for a patent for making the oil, asserts that he had been engaged 22 yrs. LORD, JOHN, Hingham 1637, may be the man wh. a. at Watertown, 28 Apr. 1669, as Bond says. JOHN, Kittery, was of the gr. jury 1651. JOHN, Hartford, s. of Thomas, b. in Eng. had first w.

Rec. I. 224. He had fled in debt to Virginia, and there wrote a letter to his creditor's neph. Richard, Feb. 1664, wh. is print. by Porter, p. 11, that serves to show him little changed; and he was nam. in his mo.'s will, 1670. JOHN, Watertown, d. 23 Apr. 1669. NATHAN, or NATHANIEL, Kittery, freem. 1652. In some rec. the name is Lawd. Farmer thot. him f. of that; capt. Samuel, the ancest. of sev. fam. of this name in the parts adjacent, of wh. one descend. is Rev. Nathan, Presid. of Dart. Coll.

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, Hartford, s. of the preced. m. 15 Apr. 1665, Mary, d. of Henry Smith of Springfield, had only Richard, b. 1 Feb. 1670, was rep. 1669, and oft. aft.; but was lost at sea Nov. 1685.

Catharine L. wh. had gr. of ld. at I. 1641, may have been his mo. and it was prob. his s. wh. d. 11 Nov. 1696. ROBERT, Boston, by w. Rebecca (d. I suppose, of Christopher Stanley by Susanna his w. who aft. m. William Phillips, and in her will calls Rebecca her d. in 1650), had Robert, b. Apr. 1651; Thomas, 18 May 1653, a. soon; and d. as Farmer thot. in Charlestown, 13 July 1678. Perhaps, as he came in the same sh. with Stanley and his w. he may be s. of the first Thomas by Porter call. sea capt. but we kn. nothing more of him, exc. that his mo. in her will, 1670, names him, unless he were that Robert of London, sued in 1675, by his neph. Richard. ROBERT, Salem 1692, a blacksmith, prob. s. of the first Robert. SAMUEL, Charlestown, perhaps s. of Robert of Ipswich, by w.

Thomas, 16; Ann, 14; William, 12; John, 10; Robert, 9; Amie, 6; and Dorothy, 4; call. at the London custom-ho. a smith; but that may have been a godly deception. His eldest s. 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. Ann, w. of Thomas Stanton; William; John; Robert; Amie, w. of John Gilbert; gr.s. Richard, bef. ment.; and gr.ch. Hannah; Dorothy; and Margaret, ch. of d. Dorothy, w. of John Ingersoll. THOMAS, Wethersfield, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. was a physician and surg. for whose serv. the Gen. Ct. made liberal contr. in 1652, as in Trumbull, Col; Rec. 1. 234, appears, correct. stat. by Hinman, 47; but he mistakes in call. him the earliest on the rec. He was also employ. as sch.master; by w. Mary had Hannah, b. 1656; Mary, 1659; and prob. Sarah; beside Dorothy, the first b. 17 Aug. 1653. He d. a. 1661, and his wid. m. an Olmstead. THOMAS, Boston, m. 23 Sept. 1652, Hannah Thurston, but of h. or w. no more is kn. and it may be that he did not inhab. at Boston, but came here only to be m. by Bellingham. At least no issue is kn. THOMAS, Charlestown, d. of Robert of Ipswich, there liv. sev. yrs. and rem. with w. Alice, d. of Robert Rand of C. a. 1666, d. 4 June 1713, aged 80. His wid.

PERCIVAL, Newbury, merch. came from Bristol, 1639 bring. s. John and Richard; his w. Rebecca d. 28 Dec. 1640, and he d. 8 Jan. 1665. Fam. tradit. says he was eldest s . of Richard, wh. m. a Percival, and drew his descent. thro. eight generat. by the eldest s. of ea. from Walter of Yardley, in Co. Worcester. PERCIVAL, Newbury, s. of Richard, m. 7 Sept. 1664, Mary Chandler, had Richard, b. 25 Dec. 1668, wh. liv. to 29 May 1749; Gideon, 3 Sept. 1672; Samuel, 13 [[127]] Jan. 1676; and Edmund, 24 Sept. 1684.

Margaret he had Samuel, 1644; and Thomas, 28 Sept. 1649; and d. 5 Aug. 1682, aged 80, says Coffin. Fifteen descend. of the first Percival have been gr. at Harv. and it is noted, that four have, at diff. times, been of the corpo. of the Univ. 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. WILLIAM, Middletown, m. 12 July 1666, Esther Clark, perhaps d. of John of New Haven, wh. d. 16 Apr. and he d. 29 Apr. 1690, leav. William, b. 26 Apr. 1667; John, 14 Oct. 1669; Mary, 5 Dec. 1672; Thomas, 1676; and Samuel, 15 Apr. 1682. 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. E. is of French descent, but came not early across the ocean, the first emigr. Augustus writ. of hims. "I m. 6 Jan. 1696, at St. Malo, in Bretagne." 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. Prob. he rem. to the Vineyard, and by w. Remember had Experience, b. 7 Feb. 1673, perhaps others. THOMAS, Charlestown, had Samuel, b. 1644, says Farmer, to wh. I can add nothing, but that he prob. rem. soon. The name abounds at the Vineyard. One LUCY, at Portsmouth, m. Mary, d. of William Brooking, and had Benjamin. LUCKIS, or LUCKIN, WILLIAM, Marblehead 1648. Dana, Hist. Disc. 7. LUDDEN, BENJAMIN, Weymouth, perhaps s. of James, by w. Eunice, d. I think, of John Holbrook, had d. Abia, b. 22 Dec. 1679; a s. whose name; is not kn. 13 Mar. 1681; and James, 9 Nov. 1689. JAMES, Weymouth, had Mary, b. 17 Dec. 1636; Sarah, 15 Nov. 1639, d. soon; Sarah, again, 5 June 1642; and John, so late as 13 Jan. 1657, by w. wh. may have been mo. of the others. 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. Martha, perhaps d. of John Rose, had Henry; Elinor; and William, b. 26 Sept. 1686. 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. Oct. 1645, ar. co. 1651, chos. constable 8 Mar. and drown. 27 Mar. 1652, leav. wid. Elizabeth and two ch. 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.

THOMAS, Dunstable, an early sett. and selectman, had Thomas, b. 9 Sept. 1682; Elizabeth 29 Sept. 1684; and William, 19 Jan. 1686. His s. Thomas left descend. but was k. by the Ind. 5 Sept. 1724.

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.

HENRY, Newbury 1635, one of the passeng. in the Mary and John, who took the o. of supremacy and alleg. 26 Mar. 1634, first sat down, perhaps, at Ipswich, freem. 2 May 1638, by w.

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. On p. 61, his Peter Lupton should be Clapton, or Clapham. He was liv. 1687, but a wid. L. is ment. next yr. She was prob. his, and was Hannah, d. of Thomas Morris of New Haven, m. in 1662, and had Hannah, b. 27 May 1665.

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. I can feel no doubt, that this Mann should be More, or Moore. See that name. SAMUEL, Dedham 1642.

The gr.stone that tells his d. 14 Mar. 1691, aged 76 yrs. may be truer, but I suspect some exagger. in that for his w. Dorothy, when it makes her 80 yrs. at the d. 26 July 1692.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

JONATHAN, Farmer, in MS. says, was of New Hampsh. and freem. 1668, of wh. I find not the evid. MICHAEL, Boston, mariner, m. 12 Sept. 1656, Susanna, d. of Mr. Edward Holyoke of that pt. of Boston call. Rumney marsh, had Michael, b. 10 Feb. 1660. RICHARD, Casco 1646, m. a wid. 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. Lydia, and gives to Benjamin Atwell, wh. prob. had m. ano. a. perhaps dec. for he also gives to gr.ch. Joseph Atwell, and this Joseph, in 1679, then only eight yrs. old, is call. only heir. He brot. from Eng. two ds. of wh. Lydia m. Robert Corbin, and possib. the other was Mary, esecut. at tbe age of 22, in Boston, for murder of her illegit. ch. as told in Winthrop II. 302.

Perhaps he came in the Elizabeth and Ann, from London, 1635, aged 12, and may have [[163]] been br. of John of B. RICHARD, Charlestown, a capt. d. 2 Nov. 1694, aged 62, and his wid. 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. ROBERT, freem. of Mass. 13 May 1640, was, perhaps, of Weymouth then, soon rem. to Rehoboth 1643, and Swansey. ROBERT, New Haven, had Mary, bapt. perhaps 24 May 1646; John, 28 May 1648; and Stephen, perhaps 13 May 1652, but for the first and last wrong days are giv. in the rec. of ch. Geneal. Reg. IX. 361. SAMUEL, Wethersfield 1646, went to New Haven, and m. the wid. Brace, but this may have been bef. his perman. sett. at W. at least in the ch. seating 11 Mar. 1647, at N. H. br. and sis. M. are ment. Her name was Phebe, d. of Mr. Bisby of London, who provid. for her and ch. buying est. at W. He had s. Samuel; and, perhaps, Richard; went to London 1652, soon ret. serv. in Philip's war as a lieut. and in Oct. 1677., had a gr. of 50 acres "to him and his heirs forever, prohibit. him the sale of the same, or any alienation thereof from his heirs," showing us that his courage was valued higher than his thrift. He a. 15 Sept. 1683. SAMUEL, Andover, m. 30 Mar. 1676, Abigail Norton, had Samuel, wh. d. 1 Feb. 1683; was an ens. and d. 16 Nov. 1696.

WILLIAM, Reading 1641, one of the earliest selectmen, freem. 1653, perhaps rem. to Groton, there d. 23 Mar. 1673, his w. Mary, wh. had been wid. Lakin, hav. d. 14 Aug. 1669, made provis. of his will dated 6 Mar. bef. pro. 1 Apr. aft. more liberal. To his w's. ch. William and John Lakin, to the ch. of William L. and to sis. Allen and her childr. exc. Hannah, are bequests, to three neighbs. release of debts, and £10. is giv. to the town for purch. of a bell for the meeting-house. Fifteen of this name, says [[164]] Farmer, US. had, in 1834, been gr. at the coll. of N. E. but as at Harv. was none, I think he may have includ. those who spell. the last syl. with y, two being, early at Harv. with this form, as very oft. in some rec. are the preced. found. Uniform use of that letter prob. belongs only to the New Hampsh. fam. MARTYN, EDWARD, New Hampsh. 1674, may have been s. of John of Dover.

MARTUGAL, SAUNDERS, sw. 9 May 1667, as freem. of Conn. if Trumbull has correct. giv. the odd name in Col. Rec. II. 8. What town he liv. at is unkn. but in 1669, as this name is not among the freem. of any town, it may be thot. he was d. or rem. MARVIN, JOHN, Lyme, eldest s. of the sec. Reynold, m. 7 May 1691, Sarah, d. of Henry Graham or Grimes, had Sarah; Mary; John, b. 9 Aug. 1698; Elizabeth; Joseph, 1703; Benjamin; Mehitable; and Jemima; and d. 11 Dec. 1711. His wid. m.

Of this man, Benedict, in Hist.

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.

In less than a yr. aft. his m. with this d. of Lee, her sis. Catharine, by sudden death of her h.

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.

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. NATHANIEL, Dorchester, s. of Richard, b. at Toxteth, near Liverpool, Eng. went some yrs. aft. his gr. at Harv. to Eng. had the living at Barnstable, 1656, by presentat. of Oliver Cromwell, it is vildly said, meaning, perhaps, by his recommend. for eccles. patronage had ceased; ejected in 1662, preach. at Rotterdam, aft. some yrs. was at Dublin, success. to his br.

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. Oxford, yet soon call. to Toxteth, where he had taught the sch. preach. his first sermon 30 Nov. of the same yr. There most faithful. he serv. 15 yrs. and was then suspend. for non-conform. and feeling the true sense of his office, resolved on expatriat. In disguise he emb. at Bristol in the James, arr. 17 Aug. 1635, aft. peril in the remarka. storm two days bef. and on 25 Oct. with w. Catharine join. the ch. of Boston.

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. He had sett. at Lyme, and d. 17 Aug. 1688. Goodwin calls his w. Elizabeth wh. seems wrong. SAMUEL, Dorchester, eldest s. of the first Richard, b. in Eng. freem. 1618, aft. large preparat. here for his profess. went home, preach. in Eng. Scotland, and Ireland, sett. in Dublin, was made a fellow of Trinity Coll. there, says fam. tradit. m. a sis. of Sir John Stevells, and d. 29 Oct. 1671. SAMUEL, Windsor, eldest s. of Timothy, preach. some time at Deerfield, and on destruct. of that town by the Ind. 1675, went down with the surv. people to Hatfield, and there preach. and elsewhere, but was call. from preach. at Branford to be ord. at W. 1682, lef. wh. he had m.

He was one of the first Trustees of Yale Coll. and d. 18 Mar. 1728. The s. kept up the name to our times. TIMOTHY, Dorchester, s. of Richard, b. in Eng. m. 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. (of course not bapt. on Wednesday, 2 Nov. of that yr. as print. in Geneal. Reg. 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. MATSON, JOHN, Boston, s. of the first Thomas, m. 7 Mar. 1660, Mary, d. of William Cotton, had Ann, Amey or Emma, b. 12 Mar. 1662; John, 26 Jan. 1665; Mary, 22 Dec. 1666; and Abigail, 19 Oct. 1668. 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.

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.

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.

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.

Rebecca m. 3 June 1658, John Hawkes of Lynn, and d. soon aft. b. of s. Moses, next yr. His will, pro. 30 Mar. 1686, names w. and Moses, the only surv. ch. of his d. Rebecca; four ch. of his dec. d. 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 Shrimpton, under sale from Sir Thomas Temple. It may be, that, as Shrimpton was oppos. to Sir Edmund A. tho. one of his council, that this was a contrivance to get rid of him. See Geneal. Reg. VIII. 334. SAMUEL, Boston, s. of the preced. m. 4 Dec. 1660, Rebecca, d. of Rev. John Wheelwright of Wells, had Mary, b. 2 Oct. 1661, and Hannah, [[182]] 25 Oct. 1663; and he d. 10 Mar. 1664, and some unusual proceed. in few days by creditors that the "est. be not conceal. or convey. away " may be seen in Col. Rec. IV. part II. 145, and Geneal. Reg. XlI. 165. His br.-in-law Francis Hooke was appoint. admor. 1666, in Maine. So that Eliot, in Biog. Dict. mistook, saying he was the last nam. of four Royal commissnrs. in the Warrant of 25 Apr. 1664 to hear all complaints and settle every thing in the Col. of N. E. respective of the doings under wh. most copious details are in Hutch. I.229-57. Strange. is he miscall. s. of the Rev. John in Josselyn, 252. His wid. m. 12 Mar. 1672, William Bradbury. But ano. SAMUEL of Boston, wh. by w. Martha had Samuel, b. 16 Mar. 1671, may have been s. of John, tho. it is very improb. as the Dorchester min. is never report. to have had any s. and he, I infer from both Moses and Samuel sign. 1668 the petitn. from Marblehead against imposts, was, perhaps, s. of Moses, and of a differ. tribe from the royal commissnr. MAWER, WILLIAM, Boston 1636, liv. at Mount Wollaston, but rem. I think, bef. 1640. MAWNEY, MOSES, Narraganset, a Huguenot, wh. escap. from France, soon aft. 1685, and as Potter in his Hist. tells, sat down in that part now East Greenwich, prob. bring. w. and ch. of wh. two are nam. Peter and Mary. Mary m. in New York. PETER, Providence, of the preced. m. Mary, d. of the sec. Pardon Tillinghast, had, as we learn from the will of their gr.f. without any indicat. of order, Sarah, Amey, Lydia, Mary, John, b. Aug. 1718, and Peter. 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. The name is one of the perversions that the Huguenots suffer. in change of their alleg. since in France it was spell. Le Moine. MAWRY, MOURIE, MOREY, or MOWRY, ROGER, Salem, freem. 18 May 1631, serv. as neatherd for the town 1637; may have had w.

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. Jane Paine, perhaps d. of Grace, w. of his f. had Matthew, a teacher of much celebr. in the Ind. cause, wh. d. 1710; Thomas, wh. was a judge; and John, bef. ment. He was on board of that ship of wh. Garrett was master, from Boston to London in Nov. 1657, with Davis, Ince, and Pelham, young scholars, the hope of the country, fellow passeng. never heard of, so proper. lament by Gookin, as in his Hist. Coll. may be read. He sail. from B. the same day in ano. ship for London. His wid. Jane m. Richard Sarson. MAYNARD, DAVID, Westbury, s. of sec. John of Sudbury, by w.

JOHN, Sudbury 1640, an orig. propr. freem. 1664, was one of the petitnrs. for gr. of Marlborough in 1656, and d. 10 Dec. 1672. He had two ws. if not more; by first [[186]] was b.

Hannah d. prob. young, as she is not nam. in his will of 4 Sept. 1672, in wh. he calls John eldest s. but makes w. with Zechary excors. calls Elizabeth w. of Joseph Graves; and Lydia, w. of Joseph Moore; and the youngest d. unm. but she m. Feb. 1674, Daniel Hudson of Lancaster, and d. in 1677. Perhaps the first w. was d. of Comfort Starr, and the sec. may have been m. a doz. yrs. later than Barry tells. JOHN, Dorchester or Boston, a carpenter, freem. 1649, m. wid. Elizabeth Pell (that had bef. been wid. of Nathaniel Heaton) and d. 4 Oct. 1658, leav. her once more a wid.

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.

He d. 28 Apr. 1688, but his will of 9 Feb. preced. was kept back until 11 June 1691, perhaps to avoid the Andros jurisdict. upon pro. business. It names the w.

No little of history interest attaches to this colony that land. their precious freight. at Perth Amboy. McEwen hims. wh. by tradit. is deriv. from Dumfries, explains: "In June 18, 1679, I was in an engagem. in Scotland, at Bothwell brigg, then of the age of 18 yrs. The 5th of Sept. 1685 we set sail to come to America, and land. at Amboy 18 Dec. and 18 Feb. foll. I came to Stratford."

A slight fam. acc. is in Geneal. Reg.IV.91, very imperf. better than nothing, but not much. Early the name is Meggs always. MELBY, NATHANIEL, Hull, freem. 1680, seems to me a wrong name. I never heard of it in N. E. MELCHER, EDWARD, Portsmouth 1684, d. 1695. The name remains in N. H. MELLEN, MELIN, MELLING, or other var. ISAAC, New Haven 1657, rem. soon aft. 1664, prob. to Virginia.

Of no fam. in the land is the investigat. more difiicult, the spell. more various, the dates more perverse, the deficiencies more num. SAMUEL, Fairfield, d. bef. 1659, and John Ufford of Milford had admin. It may be that this gent. was Dutch, from Monhados, now New York. SIMON, Boston, on Winnisemet side, perhaps s. of Richard by w.

Sarah, had Elisha, again, 16 Mar. 1681; but perhaps there were two of the same name (not discrim. by the rec.) to have these ch.; was freem. 1671, had gr. of ld. in the Stonington country. OLIVER, Boston 1634, with w. Elizabeth adm. of our ch. 20 July freem. 3 Sept. foll. disarm. in 1637, as one of the support of Wheelwright, had Samuel, bapt. 7 Dec. 1634; Martha, 6 Mar. 1636; and Mary, 26 Aug. 1638; soon aft. d. at Braintree, and there prob. had liv.

MELYNE, MELYENE or MALINE ISAAC, New Haven, br. of Jacob, whose f. (always call. Mr. without name of bapt. as on list of those sw. to fidel. 7 Apr. 1657) had prob. brot. them both from Holland or New York; but this s. the last ment. is 1663, and whether he had w. and fam. or not is unkn. 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. Riderus, call. hims. s. of Isaac, late of Virg. planter. His will, of 27 Sept. 1706, pro. 26 Dec. foll. speaks of his advanced age and infirm.; names w. Hannah and only two ch. Samuel, H. 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. SAMUEL, FairfieId, perhaps br. of Jacob, and uncle of the preced. had d. bef. 1660. MENDAM, MENDALL, or MENDON, RICHARD, Kittery 1663, may have been s. of, if not the same as, the foll.

MERCHANT, or MARCHANT, JOHN, Braintree, whose w. Sarah d. 3 Dec. 1638, rem. I think, soon to R. I. and 2 June 1639 was allow. inhab. of [[197]] Newport.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. By first w. had John, b. 29 Jan. 1664, wh. d. young. He m. sec w. 9 Apr. 1667, Hannah, d. of the sec.

His wid. m. 20 Sept. 1681. Miles Merwin, jr. SAMUEL, Concord, s. of the first John of the same, m. 28 Jan. 1706, Sarah Foster, had Samuel, b. 20 Mar. 1707; Joseph, 8 Aug. 1709; Sarah, 1 Sept. 1711; Ezekiel, 26 Dec. 1713; Esther, 10 Sept. [[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. Both the last nam. d. soon; and he d. 7 Feb. 1727. His wid. m. 1729, lieut. John Parsons, and d. 8 Nov. 1758. 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. EBENEZER, Northampton, s. of William of the same, m. 1688, Sarah, d. of Samuel Allen of the same, had Mary, b. a. 1689; John, 12 Jan. 1692 d. young; Ebenezer, 15 Aug. 1696; Jonathan; Hannah, 20 Aug. 1700; Joseph, 4 June 1705; Aaron, 6 Nov. 1708; Patience; and John, again; and d. 23 Dec. 1737. His will, of 1735, names w. the five s. and two ds. liv. and childr. of d. Patience. EPHRIAM, Kittery, bef. 1690, had, beside Samuel, Martha, who, w. m. John Wentworth of Dover, and Mary, wh. m. Ephraim Wentworth. GEORGE, Easthampton, L. I. 1660. Thompson. HUMPHREY, Reading, by Mr. Eaton ins. among early sett. m. at Cambridge, 12 Sept. 1677, Elizabeth Smith, had not issue kn. to me. 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.

Elizabeth had Thomas, b. 2 June 1689; and Robert, 11 Oct. 1697. 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. MINOR, or MINER, CLEMENT, New London 1666, fourth s. of Thomas, adm. freem. that yr. m. 1662, Frances, wid. of young Isaac Willey, had Mary, b. 19 Jan. 1665; Joseph, 6 Aug. 1666; Clement 6 Oct. 1668; William, 6 Nov. 1670; and Ann, 30 Nov. 1672; his w. d. 6 Jan. foll. and he m.

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.

JAMES, Newbury 1656, had Hannah, b. 6 Feb. 1657; Abigail, 5 Sept. 1658, Joseph, 27 Apr. 1661; Isaac, 6 Jan. 1665; Timothy, 28 Sept. 1666; and Susanna, 20 Aug. 1670. 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.

Jonathan Fuller, with wh. Jackson, 280, concurs. He was freem. 1685, k. at Groton, by the Ind. 21 July 1706, unless Butler in his Hist. be mistak. as Jackson, 366, renders prob. 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. "under a languish. sickness." Some mistake of the town was made. TIMOTHY, Newbury, youngest s. of the first James, m. 1696, Mary Lancaster, had Ezra, b. 31 Mar. 1697, Abigail, 26 Nov. 1698; and, perhaps, more.

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.

His ch. were Elizabeth wh. m. 1645, [[220]] John Washburn; Thomas; Mary, m. 24 Dec. 1652, James Shaw, and d. 1679; Edward; Sarah; Jacob; John; and Hannah, but the order of b. is uncert. and so may be the mo. for he had sec. w.

Gladly would I learn wh. this third w. was, and espec. the more prob. dates of one or two of the ch. JOHN, Woodbury, s. of David, by w. Elizabeth wh. d. 1730, had David, bapt.

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.

JAMES, Boston, "a scottish man" a rec. of his m. 6 Feb. 1657, with Mary Both, or Booth, calls him, may have been (tho. it seems to me unlikely, as he was the one of the found. of the Scot's Charit.

He had Abigail, b. 1639; Mindwell, 10 July 1643; and John, 5 Dec. 1645; but he had also, prob. elder ds. Hannah, wh m. 30 Nov. 1648, John Drake; and Elizabeth wh. m. 24 Nov. 1654, Nathaniel Loomis. Abigail, m. 11 Oct. 1665, Thomas Bissel; and Mindwell, m. 25 Sept. 1662, Nathaniel Bissell. JOHN, Roxbury, freem. 3 July, 1632, but perhaps he first liv. in some other town, for his name is not found early at R. nor does Mr. Ellis in his Hist. give it; but the ch. rec. has "old John Moore of 99 yrs. d. 27 Oct. 1679." JOHN, Cambridge, perhaps the freem. of 8 Dec. 1636. JOHN, Salem, had there bapt. Jerusha, 5 Dec. 1636; Abigail, 10 June 1638; Benjamin, 18 July 1641; and Ephraim, 10 Dec. 1643. Perhaps his w. was Hannah, and he may have been freem. but not, as Felt puts him, in 1633. John, Newport, receiv. as an inhab. 16 Nov. 1638, may have been of Warwick 1655, had d. Mary, wh. m. Job Almy. JOHN, Lynn 1641. JOHN, Braintree, whose w. Bridget d. 1643, was liv. there 1658, and in 1660 was one of the purch. of Medway. JOHN, Sudbury, 1643, perhaps he who came in the Planter, 1635, aged 24, from London, may have been of ar. co. 1638, by w. Elizabeth had Mary; [[229]] Lydia, b. 24 June 1643; Jacob, 28 Apr. 1645; perhaps Joseph; and Elizabeth; m. sec. w. Nov. 1654, Ann, d. of John Smith. Mary m. 8 Sept. 1661, Richard Ward; and Lydia m. 1664, Samuel Wright. JOHN, Newtown, L. I. 1656, was their first. min. say Riker's Hist. JOHN, Roxbury, of wh. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

His will, of 31 May preced. ment. f.-in-law, and mo. without name of either. His wid. prob. m. 12 Aug. foll. Thomas Hodgman of R. prob. more no ch. to either h.

XI. 35, made a few days bef. his d. gave est. to w. for her life, names ch. John, Isaac, Francis, Mary, and Abraham Smith, and Sarah Davis. His wid. d. 9 Jan. 1673, aged 72. 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.

Moses, James, bury, br. of Jacob, freem. 1690, m. Rebecca, d. of William Barnes of the same, had William Barnes M. so nam. (bef. the custom of doub. names so common and uncomfort. was introduc.) to preserve memo. of his gr.f. RICHARD, New Hampsh. 1640. Thomas, Gravesend 1650, Newtown, L. I. 1655. Thompson. 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. His wid. Grace d. 6 June 1705, says the rec. but his own dec. is not ment. there. He had rem. to New Roxbury, since call. Woodstock, and was d. 27 Jan. 1692, when admin. on his est. was gr. Grace, his d. m. 7 Mar. 1683, Benjamin Child; and Elizabeth m. 9 May 1685, Joshua Child; and Margaret m. 4 Apr. 1689, John Johnson.

Ann Osborne had Rebecca, b. 20 June 1682; John, 8 Oct. 1684; James; Eleazer; Adonijah; and Ann. His wid. d. 10 Dec. 1726. ISAAC, Roxbury, eldest s. of Edward the first, was a soldier in Johnson's comp. in the gr. Narraganset fight, m. 2 Mar. 1680, Hannah, d. of John Mayo, had prob. no ch. perhaps rem. to Woodstock, as he was admor. on est. of his. but came back to R. where his w. d. 5 Nov. 1701; and he m. 3 Nov. 1702, Mary, wid. of Ebenezer Pierpont and d. 21 Oct. 1715. JOHN, Hartford 1640, d. bef. Mar. 1669, in his will names ch. John, Joshua and Mary. His wid. Martha m. Roger Jepson of Saybrook; and d. Mary m. 25 Nov. 1680, John Tillosston of S. JOHN, New Haven, s. of Thomas, not perhaps b. in Eng. had w. Ann, wh. d. 4 Apr. 1664; m. 29 Mar. 1666, wid. Elizabeth Lamson, had John, b. 16 Dec. foll. wh. d. soon, and she d. bef. long. He m. 12 [[236]] Aug. 1669, Hannah Bishop, and by this third w. had Mary, 19 June 1670, d. soon; Hannah, 10 Aug. 1671, Mary, again, 9 Sept. 1673; Elizabeth 1675; Thomas, 26 Apr. 1679, d. young; Abigail, 22 Aug. 1683; and Desire, 25 Mar. 1687.

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.

Elizabeth had John; Hannah, b. 14 Mar. 1642, bapt. 18 June 1643; Elizabeth perhaps bapt. 10 Dec. foll.; John; Eleazer, bapt. 29 Oct. 1648; Thomas and Ephraim, tw. b. 3, bapt. 5 Oct. 1651, of wh. Ephraim d. next day, but Thomas liv. over 21 yrs.; and Joseph, b. 25 Mar. bapt. 25 May, 1656. His wid. Elizabeth d. 1681, and he d. 21 July 1673. 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. Dorcas had William, b. 18 Dec. 1665, rem. prob. to Wethersfield, and was freem. of Conn. 1669, and d. 1697. [[237]] MORRISON, ANDREW, New Haven 1690.

He d. early in 1703. DANIEL, Newbury, by w. Hannah, wh. d. 9 Oct. 1700, had Daniel, b. 1 Aug. 1691; John, 28 Mar. 1693; Hannah, 27 Jan. 1696; Ebenezer, 6 Oct. 1697; and Mary, 20 Mar. but Coffin omits yr. 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.

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.

Deborah had Samuel, b. 4 June 1687; Eleazer, 22 Oct. 1688; Deborah, 1690; Mehitable, 1695, d. soon; Martha and Sarah, perhaps tw. 1696; Bethia, 1698; Miriam, 30 June 1700; Tabitha, 1702; and Benjamin, 1703, d. next yr. and the f. d. 2 Mar. 1704, and his w. d. 5 Oct. 1719. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

He was abus. as a Quaker, by Gov. Bellingham, and rem. to whence he came.

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.

I. 1650, one of the first sett. says Wood, 44, perhaps went home for some time, and came again in the Speedwell, 1656, from London when the name appears Mulfoot; was chos. Assist. 1658, had commiss. from Conn. in 1664 as a magistr. and 1674, as a judge. JOHN, Eastham, s. prob. of Thomas, m. 1 Nov. 1699, Jemima Higgins. THOMAS, Eastham, by w. Hannah had John, b.

WILLIAM, Duxbury 1642, may have been s. of the preced. left by his f. in Eng. or Holland, and aft. came to join the surviv. friends. He had lds. in Middleborough. Good est. as well as charact. is told of the pilgrim. WILLIAM, Boston, m. 7 May 1656, Ann, wid. of Thomas Bell. MUMFORD, EDMUND, Boston, m. Elizabeth wid. of Joshua Carwithy of the same, a. 1663; but I kn. no more. PELEG, Kingstown, s. of Thomas the first, had two ws. it is said, Mary, d. of Ephraim Bull, and Mary, perhaps d. of the sec. 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. Abigail (whose surname is not told), had Thomas, b. 1 Apr. 1687; George, 15 July 1689; Joseph, 17 Sept. 1691; William, 18 Feb. 1694; Benjamin, 10 Apr. 1696; and Richard, 6 Sept. [[254]] 1698; wh. six s. were popular. call. the thirty-six feet Mumfords. His w. d. 1707, in her 38th yr. Perhaps he had ano. w. Esther Tefft, in 1708, and by her, John, Sarah, Tabitha, and Esther, and he d. 1726. WILLIAM, a Quaker, whip. at Boston 1677, where, I presume, he staid not long. MUN, or MUNN, BENJAMIN, Hartford, serv. in the war with the Pequots, rem. to Springfield, m. 1649, Abigail, wid. of Francis Ball, d. of Henry Burt, had Abigail, b. 1650; John, 1652; Benjamin, 1665; James, 1657; and Nathaniel, 1661; and d.

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. Perhaps he was br. of George. GEORGE, Boston, master mariner,or sh. carpent. 1647, s. of John of Abbotsham, near Biddeford, Devonsh. adm. of the ch. 15 May, and same mo. freem. m.

JOHN, Falmouth, br. of the preced. was k. by the Ind. in their assault, 11 Aug. 1676, and left wid. and only ch. 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. MUNNINGS, or MULLINGS, EDMUND, Dorchester, came in the Abigail, 1635, aged 40, with w. Mary, 30; and ch. Mary, 9; Ann, 6; and Mahalaleel, 3. At D. had Hopestill, b. 15 Apr. 1637; Returned, 7 Sept. 1640; and Takeheed, 20 Oct. 1642. He was a propr. late as 1658, but had prob. gone home, I think, to Malden, Co. Essex, there, at least was somehow connect. with Joseph Hills, who bef. com. over had given M. L11 in a bill for bring. one bullock for the use of H. GEORGE, Watertown, came from Ipswich, Co. Suff'k in the Elizabeth, 1634, aged 37 with w. Elizabeth 41; and ch.

His will, made the day bef. names w. Johanna, to wh. he gave his est. She had, I judge, been wid. of Simon Boyer. See Geneal. Reg. VIII. 354. Farmer has noted the misprint of his name in the Christian Examiner for 1828, p. 501. GEORGE, Boston, s. prob. of the preced. by w.

He d. 7 Jan. 1717, call. 92 yrs. old. It has been conject. that he was a prisoner, tak. by Cromwell at [[257]] the decisive battle of Worcester 1651, ship. in Nov. to be sold here, where the 272 unhappy men arr. in May foll. but I see little reason for the conject. exc. that Hugh, John, Robert, and ano. without bapt. name, all Monrows, form. part of the sad freight.

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.

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.

SAMUEL, Roxbury, s. of the first Jacob, was engag. in the sad expedit. of Sir William Phips against Quebec, shipwreck. on return. from the abortive serv. in the lower part of the St. Lawrence, tak. prison. by the Ind. and kept one yr. got among the Christian enemy, and was near five yrs. abs. from home; by w.

He in 1686 was one of the petitnrs. for estab. that planta. call. Matatock. Seven of this name had been gr. in 1834 at Harv. and ten at Yale. NEWGATE, or NEWDIGATE, JOHN, Boston 1632, merch. b. 1580, in Southwark, near London bridge, brot. w. Ann with childr. b. in Eng. here had Hannah, b. bapt. 6 Aug. 1633, d. at 5 mos.; Hannah, again, bapt. 19 July 1635, tho. blunder in town rec. makes her b. 1 Aug. aft.; was freem. 4 Mar. 1635, constable, rep. 1638, oft. a selectman, d. 1665. [[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. JOHN, Lynn, m. 3 Feb. 1657, Elizabeth Payton, wh. d. 22 Oct. 1677, had Nathaniel, b. 3 Apr. 1658; Sarah, 22 Aug. 1662; John, 11 Oct. 1664, perhaps d. young; Rebecca, 6 Dec. 1670; Mary, 27 Sept. 1673; Priscilla, 24 Nov. 1676; and a ch. 9 Oct. 1677, d. same day; and by ano. w. it is said, had Hannah, 6 Mar. 1680; and John, again, 13 Oct. 1681, d. in 3 wks. so that one is daunted at the proximity of the two Johns and Elizabeth Sarah m. 3 Mar. 1680, Timothy Breed. 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. SAMUEL, Rehoboth, s. prob. the eldest, of the preced. b. 6 July 1625, in Eng. m. 6 Dec. 1659, Bethia, d. of Francis Chickering of Dedham, had Mary, b. 3 Jan. 1661; Bathsheba, 19 Jan. 1662; wh. both d. young; Samuel, 21 Feb. 1663; David, 1 Nov. 1665; John, 1 July 1668; Hopestill, 19 July 1669; Mary, again, 7 Nov. 1670; and Antipas, 29 Mar. 1673, d. in few mos.; and Rehoboth gr.stone calls the wÕs. name Bathsheba, wh. I distrust; yet the town rec. may be wrong; m. for sec. w. 2 May 1689, Hannah, d. of John Bunker, and for third w. aft. 1690, Theodosia, wid. of capt. Noah Wiswall, d. of John Jackson, was deac. and rep. for Swanzey 1692. He d. 14 Dec. 1710. Mary m. 2 Jan. 1699, Samuel Woodcock.

WILLIAM, Stamford 1665, may have rem. to Narragansett aft. 1669. Five of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. and two at other N. E. coll. NEWMARCH, JOHN, Ipswich 1638, at Rowley perhaps 1643, and back to I. 1648; m.

It made w. Martha extrix. and nam. gr.ch. Thomas Gould, and Martha Balch, tho. it might be hard to find the gr.ch. Thomas Gould. JOHN, Kittery, H. C. 1690, wh. d. 1754, was, perhaps, a gr.s. and it may be that Joseph, H. C. 1728, wh. d. 1765, a couns. of N. H. in 1754, was s. of this min. Sometimes it is Newmarsh. NEWPORT, RICHARD, Boston, by w. Ruth had Ruth, b. 27 Apr. 1668. NEWTON, ANTHONY, Dorchester, of Braintree 1640, engag. 1652 in sett. of Lancaster, was freem. 1671. BRYAN, Jamaica, L. I. 1656.

The ship in wh. he had tak. pass. was with ano. for the same destinat. detain. sev. days by head winds in the outer harbor, and he was invit. by letter to town on a special serv. A lamentab. superstit. encourag. the shipmaster and some others, as in Hull's Diary, p. 185, is told, to consent to his leav. the voyage, "as think. his presence some cause of the cross wind." I hope he got passwithout contra. wind, in a later ship, and return, he went to Milford, where was inst. 22 Aug. 1660, and d. 7 June 1683. His will, of 12 Mar. bef. names Samuel, Roger, Susanna, John, Ezekiel, bapt. 1660; Sarah, 1662; Alice, 1664; and Mary; but in some cases the order of success. is not ascert. His d. Susanna m.

THOMAS, Fairfield, one of the five first sett. a man of conseq. chos. rep. to Apr. sess. 1645; had freq. suits at law with his neighb. and in 1652 charg. with a cap. crime, prob. witchcraft, or other imagin. offence, he escap. from prison, took refuge with the Dutch, who believed him innoc. 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. the Dutch were bound to extradit. of fugit. as were the members of the Un. among thems. by art. VIII. of the confed. and in the rec. of the Commissnrs. Haz. II. 229, may be read the instruct. by Congr. to Newman, Leverett, and Davis, to proceed to New York and demand his body, and Ib. 236, their claim "of the body of Thomas Newton, some time a capit. offender in one of the 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. NICHOLET, CHARLES, Salem, came, 1672, from Virg. contin. preach. to 20 Apr. 1676, by vote of the town, with dissatisf. of both the ch. and its pastor, went to Eng. See Felt, II. 588.

He may well seem to be the man of Fairfield, buying ld. bef. 1653, perhaps reaching that final resid. aft. a tempora. one at Wethersfield, and the br. of Isaac and Caleb. By w.

ROBERT, Saybrook 1664-73. ROBERT, Falmouth 1670, perhaps s. of the first Robert, was k. by the Ind. Sept. 1675, at Scarborough. SAMUEL, Reading, nam. an early sett. by Eaton, but I find no other ment. of him; unless he were that s. of the first James of Malden, wh. had d. Elizabeth to rec. in right of her f. dec. on settlem. of her gr.f.'s est. in 1706.

Deane. THOMAS, Reading, freem. 1691, was prob s. of deac. Thomas. WALTER, Charlestown 1638, had been of some other ch. if he be as I think prob. that freem. of 7 Dec. 1636, whose name in the appendix to Winthrop is print.

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.

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.

By her he had Sarah, b. Jan. 1681; Hannah 1682; and Samuel, 15 June 1686; was a lieut. 1697. Eleven of this name had, in 1634, been gr. at N.

JOHN, Salem, s. of Richard, m. Abigail, d. of George Ropes, had, perhaps, by a farmer w. John, b. a. 1660, and prob. is the man wh. was tak. in the Dutch war, 1667. He d. 6 May 1713, aged 76, says the gr.st. rec. and his wid. Mary, I suppose d. 2 Oct. 1713, aged 67. Ano. JOHN, perhaps gr.s. of the first John, m. Sarah, youngest d. of Moses Maverick. RICHARD, Salem, perhaps br. of John the first, came in 1626, as Felt thinks, prob. from Dorchester in Eng. with s. Richard, to ea. of wh. he assigns that yr. but John, wh. was elder, may have been left in Eng. 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. It seems to me, that the elder d. prob. bef. this last date, and that sec. RICHARD was the freem. of 1680. He m. 13 Jan. 1675, Elizabeth d. of Henry Bullock. SAMUEL, Barnstable, perhaps s. of Hugh, m. Nov. 1697, by Mr. Hamblin's extr. from the rec. wid. Casley, but of wh. she was wid. is not kn.

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. EDWARD, SALEM, 1639, s. of the preced. sch.master 1640 to 1676, d. 1684, in 70th yr.; by w. Dorothy had Edward, bapt. 18 Oct. 1657; and Elizabeth; perhaps more, but these outliv. him.

Jonathan, was of Colchester, where he d. NORTHCUT, WILLIAM, Yarmouth 1643, then able to bear arms, may have been f. of bef. ment. W. Norcut; but in my guess, was the same person. NORTHEND, EZEKIEL, Rowley 1645; was b. a. 1622, m. Edna, wid. of Richard Bailey, had beside four ds. John, b. 1658; and Ezekiel, 1666; was selectman 1691. His d. Elizabeth m.

SAMUEL, Milford, prob. br. of the preced. prop. for freem. 1671. Twelve proprs. of this name were counted in 1713, at that place, includ. two or three wids. STEPHEN, Providence 1645, adm. freem. 1658, and, perhaps, of Wickford 1674. NORTON, BONUS, Ipswich, s. of William, had w. Mary Goodhue, d. of Joseph, m. bef. 1690, who outliv. him, and ch. John; Mary; Sarah; William, b. 9 May 1691; Joseph, 17 Nov. 1695; Samuel, 12 Sept. 1699; Elizabeth; Lucy; and Ann, but the order is unkn. for the most.

Appleton's comp. k. by the Ind. 19 Oct. 1675, at Hatfield, then 40 yrs. old; had m. a d. of Roger Spencer, the capt. of S. perhaps had ch. but nothing is kn.

HUMPHREY, Plymouth 1657, a Quaker, who prob. had come but few mos. bef. he was expel. from the Col. in Oct. being "found guilty of divers horrid errors," and driv. to R. I. There the quiet of tolerat. could not be long endur. and in the spring foll. he went back to court persecution, and at the June Court had the advantage of attract. attention eno. to be whip. imprison. and made to pay fees therefore; but the severity of that minor jurisdict. even aft. the death of Gov. Bradford, rose not to the sublime of folly exhibit. by Mass. and, I suppose, Humphrey went home in 1658, to avoid what he had first sought. 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. John, whose extreme virulence against this sect, was better suit. to the majority of our people than the new form of worship of the disciples. JAMES, New Haven 1640. JOHN, Charlestown, may have come in 1629, but certain. was here next yr. had gone to York, where Stone, on a trading voyage along shore, took him up in 1633, for a companion to Virginia, but near the mouth of Connecticut, the Pequots, in a quarrel, cut off the whole party.

JOHN, Ipswich, an eminant divine, s. of William, b. 6 May 1606, says Mather, [[292]] at Starford, meaning, I think, Bishop Stortford, in Herts, bred at Peter House, in the Univ. of Cambridge, where I saw his subscriptions on tak. his A.

M. 1627, tho. by the Magn. it is said (with unusual confid. even for that work) he left the Univ. on occasion of disaster to his f.'s est. and bec. an usher to a sch. and curate at Starford. He was domestic chaplain to Sir William Masham in the neighb. Co. Essex, but could obt. no preferm. and dissatisf. with the formalities demand. in the ch. serv. emb. in 1634, to come to our country with Shepard, but they were compel. by a storm to go back, and he came later than S. next yr. reaching Plymouth aft. ano. terrible storm in ship with Gov.

SAMUEL, Charlestown, eldest surv. s. of Increase, a preach. but never a sett. min. was chaplain in Philip's war, both on Conn. riv. and in the gr. Narraganset fight, where his bravery is much applaud. in Magn.

Both the will and inv. of 22 Feb. foll. are in J. H. Trumbull's Conn. Col. Rec. I. 506, 8. A reasonable conject. may arise, from the moderate distance betw. Wakefield and Clitheroe, less than 40 miles, that the stock of this Windsor wayfarer and our Secr. of Mass. was in the sixteenth cent. the same, tho. we find no evid. of their ever meet. in our country. Farmer says the name is still found in both the States of New Hampsh. and Mass. and I should be very glad to see the deduction from first comer.

He did not altogether lose his faculties, as his let. to Mather of the character of his uncle, wh. is certain. one of the best parts of the strange. compound of materials in the Magnalia; as also a good epistle to John Higginson in London, preserv. in 3 Mass.

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.

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. Hannah m. 2 Sept. 1680, Rev. Samuel Angier, and was his only d. seems clear; but the town rec. helps to incr. our vexation, as it tells the d. of Lawrence O. bachelor of arts, 13 June 1679, aged 18, and of Urian O. 3 Nov. foll. for we kn. there was no such bach. and are left to conject. that the honora. title belongs to Urian, H. C. 1678, who d. at 22 yrs. that Lawrence was an undergrad. and that both were s. of the presid. Of the gr. of 1679, Edward, too, doubts on more than one point would at this late day be not easy of solution. [[304]] OAKLEY, was the name of a wid. prob.

OBER, RICHARD, Salem 1668, Beverly 1679, m. Abigail, d. of Nicholas Woodbury of B. had Hezekiah, b. 1681; Ann, Richard, 1684; and Nicholas, 1686. Farmer says this name, writ. sometimes Obear, prevails near Beverly, and is found in New Hampsh. In the Watertown rec. Dr. Bond finds a name Orbear,THOMAS, with variations, Obear, and Ober, for wh. he suggests Hobart, with which I cannot agree, but this sett. by w.

Of this mod. spell. are found eight names of gr. at Harv. and two at Bowd. in 1834. NATHANIEL, Barnstable, a mason, came from Nantucket with w. Mary, but was prob. s. of George of Boston. He d. 23 Nov. 1696, had ds. Susanna, Deborah, b. 1 Apr. 1692; and Jane, 24 Oct. 1696, only the last two at B. and the youngest d. soon. His wid. m. 14 Oct. 1697, Samuel Sturgis, and had seven more ch. ORRIS, ORIS, or ORRICE, GEORGE, Boston, blacksmith, came, 1635, aged 21, in the Elizabeth and Ann, by w.

Hannah had Samuel, 2 Nov. 1684; Martha, 15 Oct. 1686, d. soon; and Martha, again, 26 Nov. 1688; and he d. 19 Dec. 1699. Another Hannah O. of the sec. ch. of Boston, perhaps w. of Samuel or of Nathaniel, being adm. 1 Jan. 1691, brot. for bapt. Elizabeth Hannah, and Joseph, all on 1 Feb. foll. JONATHAN, a soldier of Turner's comp. in Philip's war, prob. s. of George, liv. aft. 1680 at Falmouth; but in 1691 was of Gloucester. Willis, I. 212, says his br. Nathaniel liv. at Barnstable. ORTON, EBENEZER, Charlestown, s. of Thomas of the same, had w. prob. liv. at Hingham, and was going thither in her on 7 Aug. 1694, when he was knock. overboard by the boom and drown. He had that morn. sign. contr. for build. a barque at H. and had in his pocket one hundred good pieces of eight, as part of the price. JOHN, Farmington, only s. of Thomas of the same, had two ws. Hannah, whose surname is not found, and Mary, d. prob. of Owen Tudor, had three s. and ds. Mary, bapt. 20 May 1688; Mary, again, 16 Feb. 1690, and Margaret; d. 1695, leav. Thomas; John, bapt. 4 Dec. 1692; Samuel, 11 Nov. 1694; and two ds. but wh. ch. came of the first w. is not told. JOSEPH, Rye 1669, propound. next yr. for freem. with the spell. Horten, was rep. 1671, a lieut. and seems to have serv. much as a surveyor. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. II. THOMAS, Windsor, m. 16 June 1641, Margaret. Pall, [[317]] or Paul, not, as the copy in Geneal. Reg. V. 230 has it (with addit. mistake of the man's name, Josias for Thomas, had John, b. 17 Feb. 1648; Mary, 16 May 1650; Sarah, 22 Aug. 1652; and Elizabeth 1 Oct. 1654; rem. a. 1655 to Farmington, there had Hannah, bapt. 28, not 29 Dec. 1656, as print. in Geneal. Reg. XI. 324, wh. d. soon. In 1688, to avoid the extortiona. rule of Andros, requir. wills to be rec. at Boston for all the parts of N. E. he div. his est. among the four ch. John; Mary Root; Sarah Dewey; and Elizabeth Lewis. THOMAS, Charlestown 1642, by w. Mary, who join. the ch. 12 Apr. 1650, had Mary, b. 27 Aug. 1648; and he was a householder 1658 and 77; d. 19 May 1687. His ch. bapt. there were William, 5 Feb. 1660; Samuel, 10 Nov. 1661; Ebenezer, 17 Jan. 1664; Thomas, 7 May 1665; Amie, 5 Aug. 1666; and Abigail, 19 Sept. 1669; but possib. others. From Cothren it would be thot. that he presumed the Windsor and Charlestown man the same, to wh. there appears insurmounta. objection. ORVIS, GEORGE, Farmington, m. a. 1652, Elizabeth wid. of David Carpenter, had Samuel, b. May 1633; Hannah, Apr. 1655; Roger, June 1657; Ebenezer, Feb. 1660; Margaret, June 1661; and Mary, June 1663, wh. all were bapt. at unkn. times; was freem. 1658, and d. 27 Apr. 1664. His wid. m.

Abigail, d. of Philip Pinckney of East Chester, then claim. as of Conn. Jurisdict. whither he rem. and d. 1679; had Richard, and prob. no more ch. Yet he made up the length of his life for one or two more, if the fact be clear, that he d. not bef. 1779, at Ridgefield. JAMES, Springfield, m. 1646, Joyce Smith, had Elizabeth b. 1647; Mary, 16 Mar. 1650; James, 1654; Sarah, 1658; and Samuel, 1664; rem. to Hartford, there d. 1676, all those ch. then liv. 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, Braintree, had Matthew, wh. d. May 1641. JOHN, Weymouth, by w. Mary had John, b. 2 Feb. 1640; and Ephraim, 11 Aug. 1657; but how many or wh. intermediate, is not found; yet his d.

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. Elias Shadduck, and next, m. 6 Mar. 1678, Benjamin Eggleston. JOHN, Southampton, L. I. 1650, was, perhaps, s. of Thomas. JOHN, Westfield, s. of John of Windsor, m. 31 Oct. 1674, Abigail, d. of Bagot Eggleston, had John, b. 25 Aug. 1670; rem. to Windsor, there had Abigail, 2 Mar. 1672; Mindwell, 2 Jan. 1674; Ann, Jan. 1676; Mary, Jan. 1678; Hannah, 14 June 1680; Sarah, 12 Aug. 1682, both d. young; Elizabeth 19 Dec. 1684; Martha, 10 Apr. 1687; tw. s. b. and d. 3 Feb. 1692; Isaac, 6 June 1694; and fam. tradit. says, he rem. to L.

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.

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.

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.

He d. 18 Oct. 1731. JOSEPH, Charlestown 1649, was s. of Edward, bef. ment. who had est. at Wapping, near London, wh. this s. sold, and went home, prob.

Of the four appraisers, half were Guilford men, wh. appears strange, but the provision for his wid. seems more strange. She had been not long his w. hav. been wid. of the first Ed.mund Quincy, brot. him no ch. and in few yrs. m. Robert Hull.

Rose, three ch. and four serv. freem. 6 June 1639, rep. 1641, rem. 1645 to Rehoboth, rep. 1647, and 18 yrs. more. His w. d. 20 Jan. 1661, and next yr. he m. Alice, wid. of William Parker, I presume, of Taunton, wh. outliv. him, and he d. 24 June 1678, or as I read Col. Rec. 24 Jan. foll. but neither can be true for him, tho. one may be for his s. of the same name, since the rec. bears "S. P. sen. was bur. 21 Aug. 1679." His will was of 18 July in that yr. and inv. of very large est. was tak. 11 Sept. foll. STEPHEN Braintree, younger s. of Moses the first, b. in Eng. ar. co. 1649, freem. 1653, m. 15 Nov. 1651, Hannah, d. of deac.

The other ch. were all m. and he d. bef. his f. Rebecca m. 24 Dec. 1673, Peter Hunt, and 21 Nov. 1677, [[336]] Samuel Peck; Mary m. Daniel Aldis, as says the Fam. Geneal. but it may be a mistake, for D. Aldis m. Sarah, and I believe her to have been d. of the sec. Moses of Braintree; Elizabeth m. 10 Feb. 1685, Jacob Pepper; and Sarah m. Enoch Hunt, if the Fam. Geneal. be foll. but my research makes E. Hunt m. 29 Oct. 1678, Mary Paine. Into such errors it is much easier to fall than to recover from them. STEPHEN, Dedham, m. 3 Nov. 1652, Ann, d. of Francis Chickering, of wh. aft. hard search I can find no more, unless he be the Rehoboth man, and his wid. m. 2 Dec. 1679, Thomas Metcalf of D.

THOMAS, Salem, a weaver, from Wrentham, in Co. Suffk. came 1637, aged 50, in the Mary Ann of Yarmouth, with w. Elizabeth 53; and six ch.

His will was made 26 July preced. in wh. beside w. Rebecca, he provides for s.-in-law Thomas Patten, whose w. Rebecca his d. m. 1 Apr. 1662, had d. leav. Rebecca, and for Elizabeth Hunting, w. of John, m. 18 Apr. 1671; and devise ld. to s. Thomas, gives resid. of est. equal. between s. Thomas and John. The wid. made her will 3 Mar. 1688. * THOMAS, Yarmouth 1643, had been there certainly four yrs. for he was rep. 1639 (tho. no respect is due to report of his com. 1621), rem. to Eastham, of wh. he was rep. 1671 and six yrs. more, had, beside Eleazer, b. 10 Mar. 1659, wh. d. young, [[337]] Thomas; Joseph; Nicholas, Samuel; Elisha; John; James, 6 July 1665; Mary; and Dorcas. Mary m. 11 Jan. 1670, James Rogers, jr. and next, 24 Apr. 1679, Isaiah Cole; and Dorcas m. Benjamin Vickery. The will of the f. was of 12 May 1705, pro. 2 Oct. 1706, unless there be confus. betw. f. and s. of the same bapt. name, wh. seems very prob. THOMAS, Boston, m. 25 Aug. 1659, Hannah, d. of Thomas Bray of New Haven, had Thomas, b. 19 Feb. 1665. He was, perhaps, that s. of Thomas of London, b. 8 Feb. 1632, who. 1647, chose for his guardian, Thomas Mayhew, wh. had m. in London his mo. Jane. THOMAS, Newtown, L. I. 1656. Riker, 43.

THOMAS, Newport 1683, very active as capt. of a privateer many yrs. and one of the found. of the Episcop. ch. in the place, of wh. much may be seen in the valua. Hist. of Arnold, I. 471, and aft. TOBIAS, Boston, came from Jamaica, m. 1665, Sarah, wid. of Miles Standish, jr. d. of John Winslow, had William, 21 Jan. 1669, H.

WILLIAM, Ipswich, came in the Increase from London, 1635, aged 37, with Ann, prob. his w. 40; beside Susan, 11; William, 10; Ann, 5; John, 3; and Daniel, 8 wks.; freem. 13 May 1640, may have been first at Watertown some few yrs. had large est. and used it in a publ. spirit, rem. to Boston, and d. 10 Oct. 1660, leav. only s.

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. Ten of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. six at Yale, and six at the other N. E. coll.

PAPILLIANS, or PALILLON, PETER, Boston 1679, by w. Joan had Mary, b. 29 Jan. 1680; and Peter, b. Mar. 1681; he was one of that comp. wh. broke off from the New North ch. when Rev.

But as he had w. and four ch. at Bristol in 1688, I infer that he was short time of Boston, and that the naval capt. was the foll. PETER, Boston, perhaps s. of the preced. by w.

Apr. 1640, may have sent ano. beside his eldest s. William some yrs. bef. he came to our shore, as permanent resid. for I have the best reason for think. he had come in 1630, and went back the same yr. carrying an order by our Gov. to his s.

His will, of 14 May 1660, pro. Mar. 1665, names only three ch. William, Samuel, and Thomas; but perhaps a d. Ann had accomp. her br. William early to Roxbury, there m. 20 [[348]] Aug. 1640, Edward Payson, and d. 10 Sept. of foll. yr. In his favor, I suppose, was the curious order of 30 May 1644, by our Gen. Ct. that he might "proceed in m. with Alice Tompson, without further publishment." ROBERT, New London, s. of Thomas the first, m. 24 Nov. 1681, Rachel, eldest d. of Thomas Leffingwell, had Rebecca, b. 7 Sept. foll.; James, 1684; and eight more ch. and d. bef. Sept. 1707.

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.

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.

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, 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.

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.

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.

His wid. d. 15 Jan. 1690. THOMAS, Kennebeck, s. prob. eldest, of John, the first propr. of Parker's isl. now Georgetown, may have visit.

Alice, but no ch. and gave small legacy to his neph. James Phillips. His wid. m. 1662, the first Stephen Paine of Rehoboth. WILLIAM, Newport 1639, possib. the same as preced. but the name is so common, it is very easy to fall into error a. the resid. WILLIAM, Watertown, by w.

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.

By his will of 23 Dec. 1684, and the distrib. of assets in 1688, we gain the names of Joshua, Caleb, Isaac, Hannah, Stephen, Job, Priscilla, and Joel. Sometimes this name is Parmelin, but the mod. spell. prevails. See Palmerly. PARMENTER, often in old rec. PARMITER, BENJAMIN, Salem 1637, when Felt says, he had gr. of ld. but perhaps he did not live there, exc. on Marblehead side. yet called of S. when freem. 1678, many yrs. bef. had w. Mary, and d.

Mary, d. of Elder Thomas Wiswall, had Mary, b. 9 Mar. 1689, prob. d. soon; Samuel, 4 Sept. 1693; Mary, again, 9 Apr. 1697; and others, as we learn from [[374]] his will, in Vol. XXII. 150, made 21 Nov. 1721, pro. 4 Dec. foll. five ds. 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. PAYTON, BEZALEEL, Boston 1642, mariner, m. 19 Oct. of that yr.

PEACH, ARTHUR, Plymouth, a young Irishman, wh. came from Virg. 1636, whither he had gone the yr. preced. aged 120, in the Plain Joan from London, serv. in the Pequot war, tho. "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. Bradford 362-5, the proper study of the case must be sought. GEORGE, Marblehead 1674, may have been s. of John. See Peache. JOHN, Salem or Marblehead 1648-79, said to be b. 1612, of wh.

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.

WILLIAM, dover 12662, took o. of fidel. 1669, was b. says tradit. in 16126, and d. at Newmarket 1732. If we allow for considera. exagger. a large depreciat. is mark. in his gr. gr.s.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. William Gaylord, had Isaac, b. 18 Sept. 1666, wh. had 3 ch. yet d. at 32 yrs.; Sarah, bapt. 4 July 1670; and rem. to Westfield, there was freem. 1671, had John, b. 27 Dec. 1672, bapt. 29 June 1673; Hannah, 5 Nov. 1674; Hezekiah, 9 July 1677; Joseph, 28 Nov. 1679; Noah, 14 Oct. 1684; and Ebenezer, 6 June 1687; beside Daniel, and ano. both d. young. His w. d. Sept. 1690, and he d. 8 May 1687, or 21 Sept. 1725. Why so gr. interval betw. var. dates is seen, I have no explanat. JACOB, Westfield, br. of the preced. m. 2 May 1672, Dorothy, sec. d. of John Ingersol, had Dorothy, b. as one tells, 18 Oct. but Goodwin says Dec. 1673, d. in few wks.; Dorothy, again, 10 May 1675; Hannah, 26 Nov. 1677; Israel, 3 Apr. 1681; Benjamin, 8 Jan. 1684; Joseph, 5 Aug. 1686; and Jedediah, 7 Dec. 1688; and d. 6 oct. 1689. His wid. m. a Root. JAMES, Boston 1657. JOHN, Charlestown, by w. Catharine had Catharine, b. 8 May 1659, says the Middlesex rec. and the same authty, adds that Catharine Phelps, d. 19 June foll. 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. Abigail had Abigail, b. 21 Apr. 1669; John, 6 Feb. 1671; Henry, 3 Apr. 1673; Joseph, 7 Dec. 1675; Abigail, 7 Jan. 1678; Samuel, 6 Jan. 1680; and Hannah, 12 Apr. 1683.

PHENIX, ALEXANDER, Wickford 1674. PHESE, or PHESEY, SAMUEL, a soldier from the E. part of the Col. in Mar. 1676, sent up to Conn. river, in the Ind. war, was prob. from Braintree, and s. of William. 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.

Sarah, in a boat going out of the harb. JOHN, Hampton, s.of the perced. perhaps, b. a. 1624, was liv. 1697, perhaps at Greenland, and was f. of Elias. JONATHAN, Hampton, prob. s. of Thomas, took o. of alleg. and fidel. 1678. JOSEPH, Hampton, perhaps br. of James the sec. had Joseph, b. 14 Dec. 1686, d. soon; prob. Joseph, again, and perhaps more. ROBERT, Ipswich 1639, perhaps earlier, was a soldier in the Pequot war, 1636, but after 1648 may have rem. the town rec. has Filbrick. SAMUEL, Hampton 1678, was prob. s. of Thomas the first, and ano. Samuel, the same yr. took o. of alleg. there. THOMAS, Watertown 1636, where the rec. gives the spell, Filbrick, rem. early to Hampton, sold his est. at W. 1646, had may ch. that he brot. from Eng. by w.

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. Thomas senr.), and prob. sev. others, as I think he had sec. w. hannah, d. of Edward French, young wid. of John White, and by her had hannah, wh. m. 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. ELEAZER, Charlestown, s. of Henry, by first w. Ann, d. of capt. William Foster, had Henry, b. 28 Dec. 1680, d. soon; Eleazer, 23 Apr. 1682; Ann, 26 Aug. 1684; William, 31 Mar. bapt. 10 Apr. 1687, d. soon; Nathaniel, 24, bapt. 27 Apr. 1688, d. in 4 mos.; Isaac, 3, bapt. 7 July 1689,d. soon; Joseph, 17, bapt. 20 July 1690; Elizabeth bapt. 213 Oct. 1692; and Jonathan, 19, bapt. 24 Nov. 1695.

He was a capt. and d. 29 Apr. 1709. the will of 20 Mar. 1708 names his new w. and his three s. and one d. only liv. GEORGE, Watertown, the first min. came in the Arbella, the admiral sh. of the fleet, with [[410]] Winthrop 1630, bring. s. 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. Robert Welden, he had Zorobabel, b. 5 Apr. 1632; Jonathan, 16 Nov. 1633; Theophilus, 28 May 1636; Amabel, Dec. 1637, d. Apr. foll.; Ephraim, bur. 12 June 1640, very young; Obadiah, b. 5 apr. 1641; and a d. Abiel, perhaps that Abigail, wh. m. 8 Oct. 1666, James Barnard. He had req. on 19 Oct. to be made freem. took the o. with the earliest, 18 May foll. d. Monday 1 July 1644, and was bur. the next day. His wid. d. 17 Jan. 1681. 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. II. 307; but lucki. for him, he d. 9 July 1678. His est. was disput. for by remote heirs. GEORGE, Brookhaven, s. of Samuel the first, was min. there 42 yrs. m. Sarah, eldest d. of William Hallet, the sec. had George, William, John, H. C. 1725,and three ds. but of only one, Mary, is the name told.

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. Mary, he had Joseph, b. 19 Feb. 1675, of course less than 18 and 1/2 yrs. younger than his f. Contra. to this suppos. also is the will of deac.

He had James, b. 1 Jan. 1662; Nathaniel, 25 Mar. 1664; Sarah, 17 Mar. 1667; William, 21 Aug. 1669. Perhaps he rem. to Providence, where one of this name took the o. of alleg. to Charles II. in May 1682. JOHN, Dover, or Portsmouth, d. 1642. JOHN, Dedham 1638, a famous min of Wrentham (wh. is a. 30 ms. N. E. from Ipswich, Eng.), where he obt. his living as rector, 1609, and m. 6 Jan. 1612, Elizabeth a sis. of famous dr. 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.

D. 1608 at Clare Hall as the Registrar of the Univ. certif. to me. JOHN, Dorchester, a baker, came prob. in the Mary and John, 1630, desired [[412]] 19 Oct. of that yr. to be made freem. but was not sw. until 7 Aug. 1632, by w. Joanna, had Mary, b.

But Shurtleff, who gives a full memoir of him, says he was of Duxbury 1643, by first w. whose name is unkn.had John, Samuel, Jeremiah, and Mary; the eldest, prob. John, was k. by lightning, 31 July 1658, as by the Coroner's inq. four days after, is shown; that his sec. w. was Grace, m. 1654, wid. of William Holloway, and she, with his s. Jeremiah was k. by lightning 23 June 1666, when William Shurtleff, ancest. of the disting. antiq. was k. by the same bolt; and that the third w.

JOHN, Duxbury 1643, may be that apprent. wh. went from Boston 1631, but there is no certainty as to that apprent. JOHN Wenham 1647, nam. in the will of Christopher Young as trustee with charge to take his s. JOHN, called a Welshman, Casco 1642, perhaps freem. of 1658, rem. to Kittery, was liv. 1684, aged 77.

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.

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.

Sarah. See General. Reg. II. 243. I regret to add, that young Samuel was an unhappy witness in 1692, at some of the witch trials, and, of course, was led to swear to more than was true. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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, 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.

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, 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.

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.

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. Mary, had Judith, b. 30 Sept. 1651; Mary, 21 Jan. 1653; Nathaniel, 4 Dec. 1655; Elizabeth 6 Mar. 1658; Jonathan, 2 Feb. 1663; and Joseph, 1 May 1672. His w. d. 18 Mar. 1701, and Òold RobertÓ d. 10 Sept. 1706. Farmer assum. that he might be the ancest. of Gov. Benjamin, a native of Chelmsford, assigning, in a way not common with that scrupul. antiquary, as a reason, that the Chelmsford Pierces were from Woburn. 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. John d. very soon; and Elizabeth oct. 1666; prob. more, for I suppose he rem. to Charlestown, and may be the person whose w. Mary join. the Charlestown ch. 27 Mar. 1670, he hav. done so 5 Dec. preced. and brot. to bapt. Samuel, Thomas, Joseph, Jonathan, John, Mary, Elizabeth and Persis, all 16 Jan. 1670; Abigail, 29 May 1670; Hannah, 31 Dec. 1671; and Benjamin, 15 Aug. 1675. 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. Lydia Bacon, had Samuel, b. 25 Nov. 1681; Lydia, 25 May 1683; Joseph, 28 Mar. 1685; Isaac, 22 Mar. 1687; Abigail, 27 Feb. 1689; Sarah, 22 Jan. 1691; Tabitha, 28 Aug. 1697, d. next mo.; and Tabitha, again, 19 Mar. 1700. STEP[HEN, fifth s. of Thomas the sec. set at Chelmsford, by w. Tabitha had Stephen, whose s. Benjamin was gr.f. of the late Presid. of the U. S. says the memoir of Gov. Benjamin in Geneal. Reg. VII. 10; but the writer has perhaps sunk one generat. by confu. of one Thomas with ano. of the same name, prob. the emigr. ancest. THOMAS, Charlestown 1634, freem. 6 May 1635, brot. from Eng. d. Persis, wh. m. William Bridge, and next, John Harrison, by w. Elizabeth had Abigail, bapt. 17 June 1639, unless she were ch. of ano. Thomas, as seems not unlikely; for no other is ascrib. to this one, wh. d. 7 Oct. 1666, and in his will of 7 Nov. preced. ment. his age of 82 yrs. his w. Elizabeth aged a. 71, s. John, Randall Nichols, beside gr.ch. Mary Bridge and Elizabeth Jeffts; and gave legacy to the coll. His wid. Elizabeth mo. of Mary, w. of Peter Tufts, was perhaps his sec. w. THOMAS, Woburn 1643, may not improb. seem to be s. of the preced. b. in Eng. liv. first at Charlestown, and may have been f. of that Abigail; but at W. had John, b. 7 Mar. 1644, d. prob. soon; Thomas, 21 Jan. 1645; Elizabeth 25 Dec. 1646; Joseph, 22 Sept. 1648, d. soon; Joseph, again, 13 Aug. 1649; Stephen, 16 July 1651; Samuel, 20 Feb. 1654, d. at 2 yrs.; Samuel, again, 7 Apr. 1656; William, 7 Mar. 1658; James, 7 May 1659; and Abigail, 20 Nov. 1660. He was freem. 1677 and 13 Nov. of that yr. sold ld. in Charlestown. Thomas, f. of Stephen, could not be, as the biog. suppos. the same Thomas that d. 7 Oct. 1666, aged 83 yrs. THOMAS, Setauket, L. I. 1661, had that yr. a commiss. as a Magistr. of Conn. THOMAS, Dorchester, only s. of Robert, m. Mary, d. [[432]] of George Proctor, had nine ch. of wh. were Thomas, bapt. 26 Oct. 1662; Mary, b.

Dr, John of Brookline, H. C. 1793. THOMAS, Gloucester, had w. Ann, wh. d. 16 Jan. 1668, perhaps d. Elizabeth d. 3 July 1673. WILLIAM, Boston, a disting. shipmaster, made more voyages than any other person in the same yrs. to and from Boston, was k. by the Spaniards at Providence in the Bahamas, 13 July 1641. Winthrop II. 33. Prince says in Ann. II, 69, he was ancest. of Rev. James, a disting. theolog. of Exeter, Eng. wh. d. 1730. WILLIAM, Boston, came in the Griffin, arr. 4 Sept. 1633, with Cotton, Hooker, Gov. Haynes, and other ch. men, was made freem. 14 May foll. oft. a selectman, d. 1661. He had early m. Sarah, d. of William Colbron, had d. Sarah nam. Sarah Colpit in the will of her gr.f. But I fear that name is wrong, at least, such name is not kn. in Boston. See the note in Winthrop I. 109. WILLIAM, Barnstable 1643. WILLIAM, Boston 1653, a mariner, d. 1669. leav. small prop. to his wid. By w. Esther, I suppose, he had Mary, b. 10 Dec. 1656; Martha and Mary, tw. b. 26 May 1659. WILLIAM, Falmouth 1680, on the sec. destruct. of the town, 1690, rem. to Milton. Willis I. 163. WILLIAM, Suffield, m. 1688, Esther Spencer, had Thomas, b. 1688. WILLIAM, Woburn, perhaps s. of Thomas of the same, m. 8 Apr. 1690, Abigail Somers, alias Warren. Fifteen of this name in its various forms, had, in 1834, been gr. at Harv. five at Yale, and ten at other N. E. coll. PIERPONT, EBENEZER, Roxbury, s. of John of the same, m. 20 Oct. 1692, Mary, d. of Samuel Ruggles, had John, b. 20 Sept. 1693; Ebenezer, 14 Sept. 1694; and Mary, 21 Sept. 1696, d.

Joseph Haynes, and by her he had only Abigail, b. 19 Sept. 1696; his third w. m. 26 July 1698 was Mary, d. of Rev. Samuel Hooker, had James, 21 May 1699, Y. C. 1718; Samuel, 30 Dec. 1700, Y. C. 1718; Mary, 23 Nov. 1702; Joseph, 21 Oct. 1704; Benjamin, 18 July 1706, d. in few mos.; Benjamin, again, 17 Oct. 1707, Y. C. 1726; Sarah, 9 June 1709; and Hezekiah, 1712. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Alice Darby, rem. 1731 to Concord, there d. 11 May 1752, and his wid. d. 23 Apr. 1758. Of eight ch. Jonathan, Nathaniel, Josiah, John, Alice, Sarah, Mary, and Joseph, the last, b. 1718, is the only one to whom date is affix, nor can we discern by wh. w. they respectively came. NATHANIEL, Ipswich, 1665, is thot. to have come from Darthmouth in Devonsh. his will of 7 Mar. 1676, names w. Sarah, and ch. Sarah, Nathaniel, Josiah, John, Thomas, Mary, Margaret, Samuel, and Jonathan. * RICHARD, Haddam 1669, was then constable, in 1674 rep. d. 3 Apr. 1678, in his will names no w. nor ch. but gives prop. to relat. and friends. PIPON, JOHN, master of a ship at Salem, 1673, was prob. that capt. in the forces to wh. Andros gave comm. at the castle. Felt I. 359. Perhaps Andros's officer in 1687 command. at Pemaquid was Joshua.

PITT, WILLIAM, Plymouth, came, Nov. 1621, in the fortune, had sh. in the div. of ld. Mar. 1624, but was not present at the div. of cattle 1627; and may have rem. to the N. shore of the Bay.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. IX. 362, but) prob. 17 Oct. 1641; perhaps d. bef. 1643, as a wid. P. with fam. of two is that yr. ment. She may also have m. again, for Elizabeth Rose, in 1677, by her will ment. her s. John and Samuel P. beside sev. ds. Coffin made the surname Polter. JOHN, New Haven, s. of the preced. m. 1661, Hannah, d. of John Cooper, had Hannah, b. 1661, d. soon; John, June 1663, d. soon; Hannah, again, 26 June 1665; John, again, 4 Aug. 1667; Samuel, July 1669, d. soon; one, without name, Feb. 1671, d. soon; Mary, Mar. 1673, d. soon; and Samuel, again, 2 June 1675; and his w. d. 13 days aft.; by sec w. m. 29 Dec. 1679, Mary, wid. of Ralph Russell, had Abigail, 23 Sept. foll. was serg. and propr. 1685, and d.

JOSEPH, New Haven, prob. s. of William, b. in Eng. by w. Phebe had Joseph, b. 8 Oct. 1661; Rebecca, 26 May 1663; ano. d. Mar. 1668.

NATHANIEL, New Haven, s. prob. of William, m. 1 Apr. 1675, Elizabeth Hawes, had large fam. as Porter writes, but gives no detail; a propr. 1685. NATHANIEL, Portsmouth, s. of that wid. Dorothy wh. m.

ROBERT, Roxbury 1634, on join. the ch. had w. Isabel, of neither of wh. do I find any other ment. in rec. of town or ch. but that he was bur. 17 Jan. 1654; yet in Boston ch. he had his d.

ROBERT, Lynn, perhaps s. of the first Robert, b. in Eng. had Samuel, b. 28 May 1657; and his w. whose name is not giv. must have d. soon after; for he m. 25 Jan. 1660, Ruth Driver, perhaps d. of Robert the first, had Robert, b. 18 Mar. 1661; Nathaniel, 14 Apr. 1663; John, 13 Sept. 1665; Elizabeth 9 Feb. 1668, d. soon; Elizabeth again, 15 Aug. 1670; Ruth, 27 Feb. 1674; Joseph, 25 Dec. 1676; Benjamin, 11 Apr. 1680; and Samuel, 8 May 1682.

VINCENT, Boston, came in the Elizabeth and Ann from London, 1635, aged 21, was next yr. a soldier at the castle [Winthrop II. 346]; went home in 1639, in the same sh. with John Josselyn, wh. ment. p. 30, that he was afterwards question. for a Regicide. He was prob. one of the madcap millenarians with Venner of Salem, but not of sufficient importance to be put to death. WILLIAM, Watertown, came prob. in the Abigail from London, 1635, aged 27, with w. Frances, 26, and ch. Joseph, 20 wks. His mo. Hannah had m. bef. they came over, a Beecher, and had Isaac.

Possib. this is the man wh. was execut. 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. The wretched man was perhaps s. of a wid. P. liv. at New Haven 1646. See Rec. I. 247. Hope m. 3 Feb. 1664 Daniel Robinson; and Rebecca m. 27 Nov. 1667, Thomas Adams.

Priscilla; may be he same wh. in May 1664, was of Long Isl. adm. to be sw. freem. of Conn. by Commsnrs. of Huntington. He was dissatif. prob. with the recusancy of that Col. to the union with Conn. as by the royal chart. provid. and may have been at Springfield 1665, at least bot. ld. there, but did not cont. long, and went back to N.

He may be that man, said by Farmer to have d. at Salem 1670. WILLIAM, Taunton 1643. POWER, JOHN, Charlestown by w. Sarah, had Peter, b. 4 Nov. 1643. NICHOLAS, Providence, an early sett. soon aft. 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. Thomas Skinner; Elizabeth m. Gershom Hawkes; Martha m. 18 Nov. 1686, John Pratt; and Hannah on slight report is call. w. of a Hovey. SAMUEL, Weymouth, a carpenter, freem. 1666, by w. Hannah, perhaps d. of John Rogers of the same, had Judah, b. 25 June 1661; ano. ch whose name is out, 17 Aug. 1633; Hannah, 21 Dec. 1665; Mary, 3 Mar. 1668; Samuel, 15 Nov. 1670; Experience, 8 Jan. 1673; and perhaps Martha, 8 Aug. 1675. 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. Mary, as appears in his will of 16 Aug. 1694, in wh. he ment. s. Josiah, and the Deborah, d. of his s. Timothy, dec. TIMOTHY, Charlestown, s. of the preced. m. 19 Nov. 1679, Grace, eldest d. of Thomas Shippey, had Deborah, nam. in the will of her gr.f. Pratt; Rebecca, b. 22 July 1682, d. in one yr. aft.; and he d. 25 Mar. of the same yr. He had been a barber of Boston. WILLIAM, Hartford, an orig. propr. prob. br. of John, the sec. of the same, by w. Elizabeth d. of John Clark of Milford, had Elizabeth b. 1 Feb. 1642; John, 20 Feb. 1645; rem. that yr. to Saybrook, there had Joseph, 1 Aug. 1648; Sarah, 1 Apr. 1651; William, 5, but Parsons quotes 15 May 1653; Samuel, 6 Oct. 1655; Lydia, 1 Jan. 1660; and Nathaniel, perhaps bef. the last, but not nam. in rec. but by his f. in a deed to him; was lieut. in 1661, rep. 1666, and eleven yrs. more. 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.

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. Reg. IX. 137, there pervert. to Presus. PRICE, DAVID, Dorchester, freem. 7 Dec. 1636. JAMES, Watertown, s. of William of the same, by w.

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. RICHARD, Boston, m. 6 May 1662, Grace, d. of Gamaliel Waite, had Ebenezer, b. 6 Apr. 1663; and Richard, 9 Apr. 1664. ROBERT, Northampton, had Sarah, b. 1678; Mary, 1681; Elizabeth 1683; and John, 1689; rem. to Deerfield, and thence, again, 1715. THEODORE, Salem, eldest s. of Walter, m. 1 Aug. 1667, Ann Wood, had Elizabeth b. 19 Jan. 1670; and Ann, 23 July 1671, in wh. yr. he was lost at sea. His inv. was taken 10 Apr. foll. 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. NATHANIEL, Springfield, s. of Roger, m. 4 Feb. 1652, Hannah, d. of George Langton, wh. d. 1690, and he m. 1691, Hannah, wid. of Samuel Davis of Northampton, and rem. from S. to New Haven, there d. 11 Nov. 1710, had only one ch. wh. d. under age, and the wid. d. 1711. RICHARD, Yarmouth 1643, was with w. Ann and d. Templer, adm. 29 July 1660 of the ch. at Charlestown, d. 8 Mar. 1669 at great cage. His will of 22 Jan. preced. names w. Margery, d. Hannah, w. of Richard Templer, wh. was made extrix. and her ch. James, Samuel, and Deborah, gr.ch. Hannah, w. of Alexander Stewart; and her ch.

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. William the est. at B. wh. was of their f. and br. Samuel, dec. WILLIAM, Suffield, s. of the preced. had two ws. nam. Elizabeth and a third Rebecca, wh. in Feb. 1698 had admin. of his est.

JOHN, Woburn, had Elizabeth b. 12 Sept. 1679; John, 1 Nov. 1681; Daniel (Bond, 911, has Hannah) 19 July 1686; and perhaps others. WILLIAM, Watertown 1672, perhaps by w.

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.

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.

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.

His depon. makes his yr. of b. 1613, it is said, but unless the description with circumst. be complete, it may be doubted if the true reading should not be 1618, else why was the rec. of 84th yr. ever tolerat. He was chos. one of the Assist. 1685, but refus. to take the o. prob. bec. the old chart. had been annul. I suppose that Priscilla, wh. m. 26 Oct. 1663, William Wilson, was his d.

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.

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.

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. His w. d. 30 Apr. 1678; and in short time he rem. to Saybrook, there was an innhold. m. 15 Apr. 1684, Lydia, wid. of Samuel Boyes, had only Lydia, b. 10 Jan. 1685, and went back to N.

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. C. 1700; and his only s. was speaker of the ho. of Reps. 1729-39, many yrs. of his majesty's council, and d. 13 July 1767. 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.

This Josiah was a merch. of emin. and disting. as a patriot in the Revo. f. of that fervid orator, Josiah, b. 23 Feb. 1744, H. C. 1763, wh. expended his life for the cause of his country, dying on shipboard, in sight of home, as he ret. from Eng. aft. hostil. had begun only seven days. Fourteen descend. of the first Edmund, in male line, are of the gr. at Harv. of wh. the only s. of the eloquent patriot was some yrs. Presid. and to whose honor he devot. a Hist. that for its truthfulness may put to shame most of the narratives of all Institutions under difficult combinations. QUING, or QUIN, ARTHUR, Boston 1677.

The wid. d. 1665, aged 87. RICHARD, Saco, had Richard, b. 1659; and Sarah, 1661; may be the same wh. was of Boston 1676, (but more prob. his f.) a mariner, had w.

The will of 13 Jan. 1698, names the three ds. and Mary m. only six weeks aft. that date Abraham Chamberlin; yet the will was not, of course, potental in the [[507]] match. He left no male descend.

RASHLEY, HENRY, Boston 1648, perhaps br. of Thomas, d. bef. July 1657, JOHN, charg. with murder 1679, to the E. of Kennebeck. THOMAS, Boston, adm. of the ch. 8 Mar. 1640, called "a studyent," meaning in theology, no doubt, and next yr. at Gloucester, as we learn from Lechford, he exercis. as they say, in a prophetical way, and there perhaps m. but his s. John "being a. six wks. old," was bapt. at B. 18 May 1645, in wh. yr. he was possib. of ar. co. and of Exeter 1646; but soon went home, was the min. at Bishop Stoke, Co.

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.

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.

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.

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. Jane, a mem. of the, ch. 1640, [[523]] had William; prob. Mary; and perhaps Elizabeth unless she belong to sec. w.; Freeborn, b. 10 Mar. or July 1658; and Benjamin, 30 Dec. 1661; but he had sec. w. Elizabeth wh. was mo. of these last two, wh. d. young. A score of yrs. later, wid. Reeves was excommun. by the ch. His will, of 1 Oct. 1677, provid. for d. Elizabeth w. of Richard Richards and her d. 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. Apr. 1675; Abraham, Sept. 1677; and Mehitable, Mar. 1680, made his will 23 Dec. 1680, and d. in Feb. fol. one of his s. went to L.I. 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. WILLIAM, Medford, s. of John, m. 14 Mar. 1670, Elizabeth Collins, had John, b. 12 July 1673, by rec. of Salem, Cochran, and Elizabeth REGION, THOMAS, a soldier in Moseley's comp. 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. Elizabeth Desborough or Disbrow, had Samuel, and his w. obt. divorce from him for his fault, and m. 1 Oct. 1651, John Johnson. 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. His w. Elizabeth d. Dec 1657, and he rem. to Roxbury, there m. Rhoda, wid. of John Gore, and d. or was bur. 8 June 1667. JOHN, Haverhill and Andover, had w Abigail, and s. Daniel, b. 18 Oct. 1661; and Hannah, 3 July 1664. JONATHAN, Cambridge, b. in Rowley 1639, perhaps s. of John the first, m. 13 July, 1664; Martha, d. of Andrew Belcher, had Martha, b. 18 Feb. 1667; Jonathan, 18 Mar. 1669; both d. in Apr. 1669; Martha again, 28 Oct. 1674; Jonathan, 27 July 1677, H.

Martha d. 16 July 1711. His s. Jonathan, one of the judges of the Sup. Ct. d. 1745, had Jonathan, H. C. 1736, wh. d. after two yrs. THOMAS, Windsor, had Thomas, John, and Sarah, perhaps bef. he went there perhaps from Rowley, where he perhaps had w. Mehitable, and was freem. 1672; had Joseph, b. at 1 Sept. 1675; rem. to Suffield, there had Benjamin 1677; took o. of alleg. 1679, with s. Thomas and John, they being then 16 yrs. old and upwards.

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. REX, WILLIAM, unless the name be mispell. was a propr. of Watertown 1642, liv. at Boson aft. there by w. Grace had Elisha, b. Aug. 1645; Mary, 4 Mar. 1647; and Ezekiel, 30 Nov. 1656. REYNER. 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, 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. JONATHAN, Stamford, rep. 1667, perhaps br. of first John, d. 1673, leav. ch. Rebecca, aged 17; Jonathan, 13; John, 11; Sarah, 8; Elizabeth 6; and Joseph, 4 1/4. 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. RHODES, ROADS, or RHOADS, HENRY, Lynn. b. 1608, had Eleazer, 6 Feb. 1641; Samuel, Feb. 1643; Joseph, Jan. 1645; Joshua, Apr. 1648; Josiah, Apr. 1651; Jonathan, Aug. 1654, d. bef. 23 yrs.; and Elizabeth Mar. 1658. JEREMIAH, Providence, sw. alleg. in May 1671. JOHN, and JOHN jr. were at Salem 1678. JOHN, Providence, s. of Zachary, d. 1712, his will of that date, nam. w. Waite, and ch. Zachariah, John, Joseph, William, Resolved, Phebe, and Waite, of wh. all the first were minors, but of them William and John were by former w. 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.

ZACHARY, Providence, m. Joanna, d. of William Arnold, had John, b. a. 1658; Zechariah; and Malachi; beside a d. Rebecca, wh. m. Nicholas Power the sec. and he d. 1668. His wid. m. Samuel Reape, of Newport, bef. the end of Jan. 1669; and the s. Zechariah, d. without issue. He had also some others. This name is oft. found without an h, but rarely in mod. days. RICE, BENJAMIN, Marlborough, youngest of eight s. of the first Edmud of the same, m. a. 1662 Mary, eldest ch. of deac. William Brown of Sudbury, had only Ebenezer, b. 1 May 1671; and his w. d. 3 Jan. 1691.

Herts, and of the first sett. 1639, appoint. to lay out the planta. freem. 13 May 1640, and among proprs. that yr. is a wid. Rice, perhaps his mo. was rep. in Oct. foll. and 1643, deac. and selectman, b. a. 1594, brot. from Eng. w. Thomasine, and ch. by her, Edward, b. 1618; Henry; Edmund; Thomas; Matthew; Samuel; and Joseph, had here Benjamin, b. 31 May 1640.

EDMUND, Sudbury, sec. s. of Edward the first, was a deac. and d. 25 Sept. 1719, but of m .or issue I hear not. EDWARD, Westborough, s. of Samuel, m. 15 Nov. 1692, Ruth Parker of Roxbury, says Barry, and had at Marlborough, Dinah, b. 1693; Silas 1695; Timothy 1697; Nahor 1699, k. by the Ind. at 5 yrs.; Huldah 1701; Moses 1704, d. soon; Seth 1705; Thankful 1707; Eleazer 1709; Ruth 1712; Ebenezer 1714; and Ann 1716; d. 1726, leav. wid. Hannah. EDWARD, Sudbury, s. of the first Edmund, prob. eldest, b. at Barkhamstead, Eng. by first w. Agnes Bent, says Barry, he had no ch. but John Bent, in his will of 14 Sept 1672, speaks of his d. 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.

EPHRAIM, Sudbury, s. of the first Thomas, m. 21 Feb. 1689, Hannah Livermore, perhaps d. of John of Watertown, had Hannah, d. young, Ephraim; Mary; Josiah; Grace d.young; Thomas; Gershom; John, Isaac; and Hannah, again; and he d. 1732. 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.

Sybilla, had Sybilla, b. 1691; Martha; Mary; Abigail; and Ruth; and he d. 1718. JAMES, Marlborough, s. of the first Thomas, had Jotham; Zebedia; Cyrus; Frances; James; Jaazaniah; Grace, and Berzela, if Barry is correct, who adds that he d. at Worcester 1730. 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. JOHN, Warwick, m. 16 July 1674, Elizabeth sec. d. of the first Randall Houlden, d. 6 Jan. 1731, aged 85, had John, and Randal, perhaps others. JOHN, Marlborough, eldest of Edward the first, m. 2 or 27 Nov. 1674, Tabitha, d. of John Stone, had John b. 1675; Ann, 1678; Deliverance, 1681; Tabitha, 1683; Prudence, 1685; Abigail, 1687; Edward, 23 Dec. 1689; Dinah, 1691; Moses, 1694; Tamar, 1697; and Aaron, 13 Aug. 1700; and d. 5 Sept. 1719.

JONAS, Sudbury, s. of the first Thomas, said in the doubtful rep. to have liv. 84 yrs. JONATHAN, Norwich, m. Mar. 1661, Deborah, d. of Hugh Caulkins, had Elizabeth b. Jan. 1662; and John, 1663; made freem. 1663, constable 1669. JONATHAN, Sudbury, s. of Henry, by w. Martha had Martha, b. 27 June 1675, d. soon, as did the mo. He m. 1 Nov. 1677.

JONATHAN, Sudbury, s. of Joseph the first, m. 25 Mar. 1702, Ann Derby of Stow, as by the highest authority is told, was deac. and d. 7 June 1772, and his wid. d. 2 Dec. 1773. 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. Richard Beers, he had Joseph, 5 June 1671; Eleazer, 26 Oct. 1672; rem. to Marlborough, was freem. 1672; had there Mary, 13 Aug. 1674; perhaps driv. by the Ind. war to Watertown, his w. d. there 13 May 1677; and there by 4th w. Sarah had Jonathan, 26 Mar. 1679; and Sarah, 14 Feb. 1681, wh. d. soon, and again might have, at Marlborough, Phineas, 24 Aug. 1684. JOSEPH, Marlborough, s. of the preced. had w.

Mary, had Samuel, b. 1693; Nahum, 1695; Sarah, 1698; Zephaniah, 1700; Andrew, 1703; and of him, w. or ch. I find no more in Barry. MATTHEW, Sudbury, s. prob. fifth of Edmund the first, b. in Eng. freem. 1660, m. 2 Nov. 1654, Martha Lamson, perhaps d. of Barnaby of Cambridge, had Sarah b. 9 Sept. 1655, wh. m. a Loker; Martha, 17 Aug. 1656, m.

His will was pro. 30 Dec. 1717. MICHAEL, New London, freem. 1663, as in Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 406, yet the name is not in Caulkins. NATHANIEL, New London, freem. 1669. 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 age of 66 yrs. is swell. to 70 in Geneal. Reg. XIII. 140. NEHEMIAH, New London, freem. 1666. NICHOLAS, Boston 1672, hir. a farm of Gov. Bellingham.

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. PHINEAS, Sudbury, youngest s. of Joseph first of the same, m. 2 Oct. 1707, Elizabeth d. of Daniel Willard of the same, had sev. ch. by her, wh. d. 9 Mar. 1761, but I kn. neither names nor dates, and he d. 4 Sept. 1768. RANDALL, Warwick, s. of first John of the same, had childr. but no rec. is seen of them. RICHARD, Cambridge 1635, rem. to Concord 1636, freem. 2 June 1641, had Elizabeth b. 27 Oct. 1641; and John, 23 Feb. 1644; d. 9 June 1709, aged, says the rec. more than 100 yrs. wh. 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. I presume, Michael Tarne, for they call. Joshua R. their s. when in 1668 the three unit. to mortg. est. Perhaps there were both Rice and Roise. See Roise. ROBERT, Stratford 1656, was of New London after, freem. 1669. SAMUEL, Sudbury, s. of Edmund the first, b. in Eng. m. 8 Nov. 1655, Elizabeth King, had Elizabeth b. 26 Oct. 1656, wh. m. 2 Jan. 1677, Peter Haynes; Hannah, wh. m....

Mary, wid. of Abraham Brown, wh. d. 18 June 1678; and he prob. d. 1684, or early next yr. for his will was pro. 7 Apr. 1685. SAMUEL, New London 1669. THOMAS, Sudbury, s. of Edmund the first, b. in Eng. by w. Mary had Grace, wh. d. 1654; Thomas b. 30 June 1654; Mary, 4 Sept. 1656, m. 1678, Joseph White; Peter, 24 Oct. 1658; Nathaniel, 3 Jan. 1660; Sarah, 15 Jan. 1662, m. John Adams; was freem. 1660, rem. to Marlborough, had there Ephraim; Gershom, said to be b. 9 May 1667; James, 1669; Jonas, 1673; Grace, 1675, m. 1702, Nathaniel Moore; perhaps Elisha; and Frances, wh. m. an Allen; and in Geneal. 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. XIII. 140, his age is call. 94; but my doubt is so strong, that I wish to kn. the day, mo, and yr. when he d. TIMOTHY, Concord, freem. 1690, m. 27 Apr. 1687, Abigail, d. of John Marrett of Cambridge. Twenty four of this name had been gr. at Harv. in 1849, and six at Yale. [[532]] RICH, OBADIAH, Salem 1668, m. 6 July 1662 Bethia, d. of George Williams of the same, to wh. admin. on his est. was giv. Jan. 1678.

RICHARDS, BENJAMIN, Boston, merch. s. of Thomas of Weymouth, m. 10 Oct. 1661, Hannah, d. of William Hudson, jr. d. early, and prob. without ch. His wid. m. 1666 Richard Crispe. DAVID, New London, youngest s. of the first John of the same, m. 14 Dec. 1698, Elizabeth Raymond, perhaps d. of Daniel of the same; but Miss Caulkins does not enlarge upon him.

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.

WILLIAM, Newport, perhaps s. of William of the same, m. 30 Aug. 1670, Deliverance, d. of Richard Scott, but I fear she liv. not long, for I find no rec. no ment. of ch. and he, or ano. of the same name at N. m. 27 Mar. 1678, Elizabeth Borden, of whose f.

Of this name, eighteen had been gr. at Harv. in 1850, and three at Yale, beside sev. at other N. E. coll.

RICHELLS, RITCHELL, or RICHAL, SIGISMUND, Wethersfield 1661, then had a s. grown up; perhaps was of Brainford after. RICHMOND, EDWARD, Westerly, s. of the first John, purch. at Misquamicuk, the most W. part of R. I. jurisdict. 1661, had in 1667 gr. at E. Greenwich, near the centre of the Col. and Farmer thought he was of Little Compton, the most E. town. JOHN, Taunton, one of the first purchas. 1637, may be the same, wh. Folsom, 138, places in Maine. 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. Reg. VII. 180, names s. John and Edward, ds. Mary, w. of William Paul, and Sarah, w. of Edward Rew, and next, 4 Nov. 1678, James Walker, gr.ch. Edward, s. of Edward, and Thomas, s. of John.

RICKMAN, ISAAC, Salem, came in the fleet with Higginson 1629; and perhaps went back soon, at least no more is heard of him. RIDDAN, or RIDDAINE, THADDEUS, Lynn, merch. freem. 1672, by w. Elizabeth had Hannah, and Sarah, tw. b. 12 Aug. of wh. Hannah, d. 13 Nov. 1660; Hannah, again, b. 11 Nov. 1662; John, 3 Feb. 1665; and Abigail, 4 June 1671. By his correspond. Farmer was inform. that this name was Kidder. RIDER, BENJAMIN, Yarmouth, m. 13 June 1670, Mary, d. of John Gray, was a soldier of GorhamÕs comp. in PhilipÕs war, but liv. in 1698.

Full rec. of his fam. is lost, but he had s. Samuel, wh. d. 14 Aug. 1702, and from his will we find other ch. Ebenezer, John, b. 1664, Joseph, Hannah, Lydia, and Thankful. JOSEPH, Yarmouth, br. of the preced. of wh. the imperf. rec. shows ch. Joseph, b. 22 Dec. 1676; Hannah; Elizabeth; Mary; Sarah; Rebecca; and Esther; was a man of esteem, left large est. and his branch of the fam. was exstinct in his gr.s. PHINEAS, Falmouth 1658, had been of Gloucester 1649 to 58, was a man of import. rep. 1670. See Babson and Willis, I. His name is, in Hutch. Coll. 398, call. Hidar. SAMUEL, Yarmouth 1638, had earlier w. Mary, b. 6 Sept. 1647; and Elizabeth wh. m. 2 Nov. 1667, John Cole; beside Benjamin, John, and Samuel, some of wh. may have been b. in Eng. and Zechary, first male b. of white parents in the town; and Joseph; all nam. with w.

SAMUEL, Taunton, s. of the preced. m. 14 June 1680, Lydia Tilden, perhaps d. of Joseph of Scituate. He is said to have had fourteen ch. THOMAS, Dorchester, had come in the yr. 1634, by the Hercules, m. Elizabeth d. of William Lane, was perhaps a caulker, of Boston 1650, had Hannah, b. 7 Mar. 1655. THOMAS, Watertown, freem. 1690, m. Sarah Lawrence, d. of George the first, had Sarah, b. Dec. 1694, d. next mo. Prob. he rem. to Framingham, in Bond's judgm. and was likely to be at Dorchester 1709. In the will of her f. this Sarah is ment. 1707; and she d. at Roxbury 14 Aug. 1714, says, perhaps erron. Geneal. Reg. XIV. 53. WILLIAM, Watertown, m. 7 or 11 Aug. 1674, Hannah Lovett, had [[541]] William, b. 29 July 1675; Hannah, 4 Apr. 1678, d. young; Hannah, again, 28 May 1680; rem. to Shirborn, had Daniel; and Eleazer, 22 Jan. 1687; and d. 27 Aug. 1724.

RIDLAND, JOHN, Charlestown, of wh. no more is kn. by me but that his name is in the list of household. 1678. RIDLEY, RICHARD, came in the Planter, a serv. of Martin Saunders, from London 1635, aged 16, but no more is kn. of him. RIFF, RICHARD, Salem, seems a strange name, but is in the list of freem. 1678. RIGBY, EDWARD, Lancaster 1654. JOHN, Dorchester 1637, freem. 18 May 1642, d. in Apr. 1647; was perhaps f. of the Samuel, bapt. there 21 Mar. 1641, and of Abigail, wh. m. 19 Feb. 1664, Thomas Holman. SAMUEL, Dorchester 1662, perhaps s. of the preced. shoemaker, by first w. had Elizabeth wh. m. 23 Jan. 1678, Watching Atherton; and Mehitable; and by sec. w. had John and Silence RIGGS, ANDREW, Gloucester, youngest s. of the first Thomas, m. 24 Jan. 1704, Mary Richardson, had s. William, Joseph, and George, besides six ds. not nam. in Babson's Hist. wh. tells that he was liv. so late as 1771. EDWARD, Roxbury 1633, brot. w. Elizabeth and ch. Lydia, wh. d.

He m. 5 Apr. 1636, Elizabeth Rooke, by wh. he had not any ch. nam. on rec. of b. and therefore it may be conclud. that he had brot. one other s. and two ds. wh. liv. to m. but all d. bef. him. The w. d. 1666, and he was bur. 5 Mar. 1672, in his will of 2 Sept. 1670, naming s. Edward as dec. leav. wid. and childr. beside Joseph, Hannah, and other childr. of his d. Mary Twitchell, and gr.ch. Elizabeth Allen. He was freem. 14 May 1634. EDWARD, Milford 1640, s. prob. of the preced. b. in Eng. had perhaps John and Samuel, and was one of the early sett. at Paugusset, after nam. Derby, but d. bef. his f. JOHN, Milford, s. of the preced. d. 1670. JOHN, Gloucester, s. of the first Thomas, m. 1 Jan. 1690, Ruth Wheeler, had s. John, Jeremiah, and Jonathan, beside one that d. inf. and seven ds.; and d. 12 Jan. 1748. SAMUEL, Milford 1671, then propound. for freem. may have been br. of the first John, m. 1667, Sarah, d. of Richard Baldwin of the same, and rem. to Derby. STEPHEN, Marblehead 1674. THOMAS, Gloucester, was town clk. 51 yrs. selectman 20, sometime sch.m. rep. [[542]] 1700; m. 7 June 1658, Mary d. of Thomas Millet, wh. d. 23 Jan. 1695, had Mary, b. 6 Mar. 1659; Thomas, 23 Jan. 1661, d. in few days; Sarah, 16 Jan. 1662; Ann, 27 Apr. 1664; Thomas, again, 7 Dec. 1666; John, 25 Feb. 1670; Elizabeth 22 Apr. 1672; Abigail, 29 Dec. 1678; and Andrew, 8 Jan. 1682.

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. RIGMAN, EPHRAIM, a soldier in Philip's war, 1675 and 6, under Capt. Poole, on Conn. riv. RILEY, HENRY, Rowley, d 1710, aged 82. JOHN, Wethersfield, by w. Grace had John, b. 1646; Joseph, 1649; Jonathan, 1651; beside Mary, Grace, Sarah, Jacob, and Isaac, whose dates are unkn. but all the eight are named in this order in his will of 1671, soon after wh. he d. All exc. Jacob, wh. prob. d. earlier, div. the est. of Joseph, wh. without w. or ch. in 1706; and John and Jonathan d. 1711; Grace m. 22 Nov. 1680, William Goodrich the sec. JOHN, Springfield, by w. Margaret had Margaret, b. 1662; and Mary, 1665; was freem. 1671, and d. 24 Oct. 1684. His wid. d. 22 Aug. 1689. Margaret, his d. m. 1685. RICHARD, by Hinman count. as one of the early sett. at Wethersfield, is by me thought to mean Risley. RINDGE, DANIEL, Roxbury 1639, rem. to Ipswich bef. 1648, prob. had ch. 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. RING, ANDREW, Plymouth, whose wid. mo. made her will there 28 Oct. 1633, leav. him to the care of Elder Fuller, came prob. a. 1629, was freem. 1646, m. that yr. Deborah, d. of Stephen Hopkins, had William; Eleazer; Mary; Deborah; and Elizabeth 19 Apr. 1652. He was one of the first sett. of Middleborough, had for sec. w. Lettys, wid. of John Morton. His sis. Elizabeth wh. m. Stephen Dean, and Susanna, wh. m Thomas Clark, were both older than A. which d. 1692, in 75th yr. [[543]] Whether his f. came or d. in Eng. is uncert. JARVIS, Salisbury, s. of Robert, m. 24 Dec. 1685, Hannah Fowler, perhaps d. of Thomas, had Jarvis, b. 2 Oct. 1686; Hannah, 3 Mar. 1689; Elizabeth 3 Sept. 1692, and Oliver, 17 June 1698. JOHN, perhaps of Salisbury, came in the Bevis 1638, from Southampton, was a carpenter. JOHN, Ipswich, m. 18 Nov. 1664, Mary, eldest d. of Thomas Bray of Gloucester, rem. thither, perhaps, bef. 1697, or at least his w. there d. 11 Apr. 1725, aged 7, and the prob. had William, Daniel, and David, possib. also, John. 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. Elizabeth had Martha, b. 12 Dec. 1654; Jarvis, Feb. 1658; John, 17 Feb. 1662; and Joseph, 3 Aug. 1664. THOMAS, had been of Salem, perhaps in 1637, was after of Exeter, there d. 1667. RIPLEY, ABRAHAM, Hingham, s. of William, brot. by his f. from Eng. freem. 1656, m. Mary, eldest d. of Joseph Farnsworth of Dorchester, wh. outliv. him, and, 1684, m. Edward Jenkins of Scituate.

Peter Hobart, was freem. 1656, and d. soon after date of his will, Jan. 1684, in wh. he names ch. only, John, b. 2 Mar. 1657; Joshua, Jeremiah, Josiah, Peter, and Hezekiah. JOSHUA, Hingham, s. of the preced. m. 28 Nov. 1682, Hannah, d. of Dept. Gov. William Bradford. JOSIAH, Hingham, br. of the preced. by w. Joanna had Mary, b. 18 Feb. 1695. WILLIAM, Hingham 1638, came, as by the contempo. MS. of his townsman, Daniel Cushing, we learn, with w. and two s. and two ds. from Hingham, Co. 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. VI. 354, is minute eno. as to the geogr. of his lds. but names no relat. exc. the two s. wh. are made excors. His d. Sarah m. 18 Oct. 1653, Jeremiah Beal, but neither she nor the other d. nor w. are ment. The latter m. 20 Jan. 1658, John Dwight of Dedham. One WILLIAM, was of Gallop's comp. for the sad campaign against Quebec, 1690. Nine of this name had been, in 1834, gr. at Yale, five at Harv. and six at other N. E. coll. RISCRRAFT, RICHARD, Northampton, took the o. of alleg. 8 Feb. 1679. RISDEN, ELISHA, Milford, 1678, s. of Robert, perhaps rem. ROBERT, Boston 1654, mariner, by w. Beatrice, had Elisha, b. 25 Jan. 1655; and Sarah, 29 May 1662, rem. to Fairfield, there with w. d. a. 1666, leav. five ch. wh only Elisha is nam.

White, d. of Edward R. was of York 1652, of Godfrey's council, to support Gorges' patent 1649, as well as three yrs. preced. rep. for York 1653, and 12 yrs. succeed. last in 1679, after wh. yr. no more rep. came from Maine under the old chart. was in high esteem, either as republican or royalist, a magistr. of Mass. 1681, and liv. as Farmer says, in 1683. 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. R." and it may fairly be assumed that the f. was then d. 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."

In Geneal. Reg.

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.

William Turner, k. by the Ind. at the Falls fight, 19 May 1676. * WILLIAM, Milford 1645-1669, was rep. 1689. WILLIAM, Dover 1645, had a fam. and with his s.-in-law was k. by the Ind. in 1675. 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. THOMAS, Salem, s. of William had been librarian of the coll. and for some short time a fellow of the corpo. preached a little, but in conseq. prob. of malign. report spread about, as in a dedica. of a serm. to Presid. Leverett preach. at coll. wh. he print. "that his sermons were only heathenish discourses, no better Christianity than was in Tully," he withdrew from the pulpit and became a physician, m. Mehitable, d. of Maj. Stephen Sewall, had William, wh. d. young; Mehitable; and Thomas; both m. and d. 28 Aug. 1729. WILLIAM, Boston, s. of Thomas, b. in Eng. 26 Apr. 1648, prob. at Castle Dunnington, in the E. riding of Yorksh. came hither, perhaps at man's age, and m. Elizabeth d. of William Greenough, had Mary, b. 19 Oct. 1687, d. young; Thomas, 20 Mar. 1689, H.

Prob. one was Mary, wh. m. a Thomas; and Elizabeth wh. m. James Barnard was ano. He was constable 1684, and d. 23 Jan. 1718. Mercy m. 18 Sept. 1722, John Goodwin of Boston.

His wid. Mary, m. 15 July 1646, William Brown, and Henry Walker, 26 Sept. 1662, d. 17 Apr. 1690. ABRAHAM, Gloucester, s. of the preced. m. 7 July 1668, Mary Harraden, d. of Edward, had Mary b. 20 Aug. 1669; Sarah, 17 Sept. 1671; Elizabeth 12 Sept. 1673; Abigail, 4 Jan. 1676; Abraham, 15 Oct. 1677; Andrew, 2 Oct. 1679; Stephen, 9 Dec. 1681; Ann, 1684; Dorcas, 1685; Deborah, 1688, Hannah, 1691; and Jane, 1693. His life is traced by Mr. Babson down to 1730, so that he was old man when he d. yet it was less than the statem. of descend. wh. would make it one hundred and two yrs.

DANIEL, New Haven, m. 3 Feb. 1664, Hope, d. of William Potter, had Mary, b. 14 Dec. foll.; and Daniel, 27 Nov. 1666. DAVID, Exeter 1657-83, was perhaps s. of John of the same. He perhaps had s. David, wh. m. 1 Jan. 1706, Sarah, d. of Josiah Sanborn, of Hampton. EDWARD, Newport, of one the freem. 1655. FRANCIS, Saco 1643, in 1645, was called on by Vines in the interest of Gorges, as a counsellor, but we learn nothing more of him. FRANCIS, Boston, freem.. 1671. GEORGE, Rehoboth 1646-77, in 1668, had part in the div. of Attleborough lds. and serv. in Philip's war. Baylies II, 217, and IV. 84. GEORGE, Boston, m. 3 Oct. 1657, Mary Bushnell perhaps d. of John of the same, had George b. 30 Mar. 1658; John 1661; and Martha, 31 Mar. 1665; was one of the first comp. to act with fire engines, 1678. 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. Sarah had Beriah, b. 7 Jan. 1684; George 1 July 1685; John, 4 Mar. 1688; Ebenezer, 22 Sept. 1692; Samuel, 13 Oct. 1695; and his w. d. 5 May 1703. He m. 4 Aug. foll. Sarah, d. of Peter Behoney, under fifteen yrs old, had David, 5 May 1704; and Jonathan, 4 Feb. 1706 ISAAC, Plymouth 1630, s. of blessed John, the apostle of Leyden, came prob. with his mo. in the fleet with Winthrop See lett. of Sherley, 8 Mar. 1629-30, to Bradford. 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. Susanna, prob. d. in the will of Timothy Hatherly in 1664. His w. was bur. 13 June 1649, with a. d. premat. b. the week bef. Fear was w. of Samuel Baker. 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.

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.

Walter Clark, but she was, I presume, sec. w. for the Friends' rec. of N. show his m. 7 June 1682, with Patience Malins, wid. of Robert, d. of that Peter Easton, wh. d. on her birth day, at the age of 35; and Gov.

ELIAS, Charlestown, m. 17 July 1656, Rebecca, d. of Robert Long, had John, bapt. 27 Nov. 1670. He d. 18 Jan. 1687, his w. have d. earlier. HUGH, Hartford 1661, rem. perhaps to Salem, but, in 1669, is on the freem. list of Conn. and bef. 1678, was at Suffield, there d. 5 Aug. 1689, and his w. Abigail d. 3 Sept. foll. He had first liv. at Weymouth, and there his d. Esther d. 11 July 1655; and his s. Samuel was b. 14 Jan. foll. wh. d. the yr. bef. his f. and other ch. nam. in his will were Peter, Mary Denslow, Elizabeth Merrill of Saybrook and Abigail Taylor; gr.ch.

MARK, York 1666, serv. that yr. on the gr. jury. PETER, Suffield, s. of Hugh, m. 1689, Sarah, d. of Thomas Remington, and had sev. ch. RICHARD, Charlestown, br. of Elias, wh. had admin. of his est. after he perish. Nov. 1666, by casual. at sea. Sometimes, but rarely, these names are enriched with a w. ROGERS, ANDREW, a passeng. from London 1671, in the Arabella, of wh. no more is heard in our country. DANIEL, Ipswich, s. of Presid. John, m. Sarah, d. of the first John Appleton, tho. the Apleton mem. p. 16, makes her w. of Samuel R. had Sarah, wh. d. inf.; Sarah, again, b. 27 Apr. 1694, d. soon; Sarah, again, 29 Mary 1695; Margaret, prob. 8 Jan. 1699; Elizabeth; Priscilla; Mary; Daniel, 17 Oct. 1706, H.

He was sch.master, town clk. and reg. of probate, tho. his handwriting is ill, and he perish. in a cold snowstorm on Hampton Beach, 1 Dec. 1722. See Geneal. Reg. VI. 70. DAVID, Braintree, had Ruth, b. 3 Jan. 1641; and he d. 24 Sept. 1642. ELEAZER, Milford, was freem. 1669, and the name was perpet. there to 1713. EZEKIEL, Rowley, first min. there, s. of Richard, a disting. Purit. divine of Weathersfield, Co. Essex, wh. is assum. by the author of the mem. of Fam. of Nathaniel, but with slight, or, as I think, not even slight, support for his assumpt. to be s. of him burned at the stake 1555, was bred at Cambridge, where in 1604, he was of Corpus Christi, when he had his A. B. and of Christ's Coll. in 1608, on rec. his A. M. came in 1638, with his w. Sarah, d. of John Everard, Citiz. of London, wh. d. in ten yrs. He had serv. long aft. 1621, with great reput. and favor Archbp. Matthews, in that parish in Yorksh. whose [[560]] name was adopt. here by the people wh. accomp. him; and in a commission out of chanc. for inquisit. into misapplica. of funds giv. by the Queen, he was includ. by her Majesty, as first among seven clerg. after the Archbp. of York, the E. of Cumberland, three baronets, six knights, and eight esqrs. See Oliver's Hist. of Beverly, 195, 6. He was freem. 23 May 1639, had for sec. w. a. d. of Rev. John Wilson, wh. d. bef. giv. b. to her first ch. and the third w. Mary, wh. surv. him was wis. of Thomas Barker, m. 16 July 1651; but when he d. 23 Jan. 1661, leav. good est. there was no ch. to inherit; nor is it kn. that he ever had a s. EZEKIEL, Ipswich, s. of Rev. Nathaniel, m. Margaret, wid. of Thomas Scott, d. of William Hubbard, and sis. of the histor. had Martha; Nathaniel, b. 14 Aug. 1664; John, 12 June 1666; Ezekiel, 4 June 1667; Timothy and Samuel; and d. 5 July 1675. His wid. d. 1678, and her will of 22 June was pro. 17 Sept. of the same yr. in it she speaks of being extrix. of her s. Thomas Scott's est. and gives L40 to the s. Rogers, and d. Snelling of her d. Snelling, the name of wh. d. was, I believe, Margaret. GAMALIEL, Boston, s. of Simon, by w. Mercy, had Jane, b. 3 Jan. 1689. GEORGE, Maine, was of the jury 1650, but of what town I see not. HENRY, Springfield, took the o. of alleg. 1678. It is not kn. whether he came from Eng. or was b. here, but prob. the latter; and he m. 30 Dec. 1675, Mary, eldest d. of Richard Exell of S. had Mary, b. 23 Dec. 1676, d. within 4 yrs. John, 5 Mar. 1678; Dorothy, 5 Sept. 1679; Mary, 8 Aug, 1681; a. d. Apr. 1683, d. soon; and Henry, 28 Dec. 1687, and d. 26 Sept. 1724. His wid. d. 23 Oct. 1732. Both his s. had fams. Mary m. 1702, Samuel Cooper; and Dorothy m. 1704, James Taylor the younger. 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. Elizabeth d. of Samuel Rowland, rem. to Milford, had Samuel, b. a. 1640; Joseph, bapt. 1646; John, 1648; Bathsheba, 1650; James, a. 1652; Jonathan, b. 31 Dec. 1655; and Elizabeth 1658; soon aft. he rem. to N. L. was the richest man in the settlm. after Gov. Winthrop freem. 1660, rep. 1661-8 and in 1676, began to make with his childr. much opposit. to inf. bapt. and d. a. 1688. bathsheba m. 4 Mar. 1670, Richard Smith of N. L. and next Samuel Fox as his third w. and Elizabeth m. 9 Feb. 1682, the sec. Samuel Beeby. From this man, thro. his fifth s. Jonathan, is deriv. the ancient imperfect vol. contain. the Psalms and New Testam. with a ch. liturgy thot. to be of the days of Edward VI. JAMES, Newport 1638, adm. freem. 1640, and is in the list of 1655, and was gen. serg. 1661-3. JAMES, Eastham, s. of Joseph, m. 11 Jan. 1671, Mary, d. prob. of the first Thomas Paine, had James b. 30 Oct. 1673; Mary, 9 Nov. 1675; and Abigail, 2 Mar. 1678; was a lieut. and d. 13 Apr. foll. JAMES, [[561]] New London, s. of James of the same, a sea capt. m. 5 Nov. 1674, Mary, d. of Jeffrey Jordan, of wh. very pleasant tradit. is told by Caulkins, p. 202, tho. as nothing was ever heard of her f. or mo. or bro. or sis. it may fail of truth in some partic. had James, Mary, Elizabeth Sarah, Samuel, Jonathan, Richard, and William. 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. Eliezer, Jabez, Abigail, wh. was w. of Ephraim Stiles, John, and gr.ch. Ruth Beardsley. JOHN, Huntington, L. I. adm. 1664, freem. of Conn. and in 1669, had been two yrs. perhaps of Branford, d. bef. 1676, prob. without being m. or at least without ch. for his br. Noah inherit, his est. JOHN, Ipswich, eldest s. of Rev. Nathaniel, b. in Eng. early in 1631 (not 1620, as Geneal. Reg. X. 148), prob. at Coggeshall in Essex, where liv. the f. of his mo. but Farmer says at Assington in Suff. was both physician and preacher after leav. Coll. 1649, and some yrs. I believe, was of Boston, but of so common a name, a mistake is very easy; freem. 1674; m. Elizabeth only d. of Maj-Gen. Daniel Dennison, had Elizabeth b. one acc. says 3, ano. 26 Feb. 1662; Margaret, 18 Feb. 1664,; John, 7 July 1666, H. C. 1684; Daniel, 25 Sept. 1667, H. C. 1686; Nathaniel, 22 Feb. 1670, H. C. 1687; and Patience, 13 or 25 May, 1676; preach. occasional. as aid to Cobbett and Hubbard, was chos. 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. His wid. d. 13 June 1723. Elizabeth m. 23 Nov. 1681, John Appleton; Margaret, m. 28 Dec. 1686, Dr. Thomas Berry, and next, 25 Nov. 1697, Hon. John Leverett, and d. 7 June 1720; and Patience, m. 15 Apr. 1696, Benjamin Marston of Salem, and d. 22 May 1731. Never, I think, is heard any suggest. that he was of the stock of the martyr of Smithfield, when it might have been difficult to avoid that topic of congratula. had any of his realtives or friends believ. it. JOHN, Duxbury or Marshfield, perhaps s. of Thomas of the Mayflower, and left at home some yrs. Winsor says, had Elizabeth wh. m. 17 Nov. 1668, Nathaniel William of Taunton; [[563]] Abigail, wh. m. a Richmond; and Hannah, m. 23 Nov. 1664, John Tisdale; beside, I presume, that Thomas, bapt. at Scituate, 6 May 1638. JOHN, Duxbury, m. Nov. 1666, Elizabeth d. of William Peabody, had Hannah, b. Nov. 1668; John, 22 Sept. 1670; Ruth, 18 Apr. 1675; Sarah, 4 May 1677; and Elizabeth He may be the same whose d. is rec. at Marshfield, 7 May 1717, in his 85th yr. if liberal discount be allow. for exagger. Far more prob. is it that the other John of D. was thus long lived. JOHN, Eastham, s. of Joseph, m. 19 Aug. 1669, Elizabeth Twining, perhaps d. of William, had Samuel, b. 1 Nov. 1671, d. soon; John, 1 Nov. 1672; Judah, 23 Nov. 1677; Joseph, 22 Feb. 1679; Elizabeth 23 Oct. 1682; Eleazer, 18 May 1685; Mehitable, 13 Mar. 1687; Hannah, 5 Aug. 1689; and Nathaniel, 3 Oct. 1693. His wid. Elizabeth d. 10 Mar. 1725. JOHN, New London, s. of James the first, m. 17 Oct. 1670, Elizabeth d. of Matthew Griswold, had Elizabeth b. 8 Nov. 16571; and John, 20 Mar. 1674; began, bef. the end of this yr. to assert opinions and follow forms in relig. wh. disgust. his w. wh. desir. divorce next yr. and aft. 18 mos. gain. the reluct. assent of the Ct. wh. allow. her to retain both the ch.

Rogerenes, but tho. he had the glory of kn. that his writings were condemn. and burn. as pestilent heresies, yet without caus. much light to be spread, the schism went off soon aft. his d. wh. was 17 Oct. 1721. A sec. w. Mary Ransford cause him more trouble than the first. JOHN, Boston, of whose est. admin. was giv. 25 Apr. 1672, to his wid.

John of Dedham, co. Essex, Eng. fondly report. in mod. times with very little, or rather no probabil. to be descend. of the first martyr in Queen Mary's day, was b. a. 1589 at Haverhill, where his f. was then min. bred at Cambridge Univ. where he was matric. of Emmanuel, 1614, had his deg. 1617 and 21, first preach. at Bocking in Essex, next at Assington in Sufflk. where were Gurdon and other purit. gentry, the Bp. of the diocese, after fill. by Wren, the puritan-disturber, having comforta. respect. him five yrs. He m. Margaret, d. of Robert Crane, a gent. with good est. of Coggeshall, Co. Essex, at whose ho. perhaps, the eldest ch. John was b. Jan. 1631, H. C. 1649; had also Nathaniel, b. at Assington, 30 Sept. 1632; Samuel, 16 Jan. 1635; Timothy, 9 Nov. 1638, at Ipswich; and Ezekiel, H. C. 1659; beside Margaret, wh. was, no doubt, b. in Eng. and here m. William Hubbard, the Hist. he came from London to Boston, arr. 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. NATHANIEL, Ipswich, s. of the preced. serv. in the cavalry in Philip's war 1676, and d. 14 June 1680, prob. unm. for the careful author of the Fam.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. Mosely, of course in Dec. bef. was near 70 yrs. old, was still in the serv. and his fam. suffer. so that she beg. for his release. Sudbury James had d. Dorothy, wh. m. 11 Apr. 1687, Eliezer Whitney from Watertown. JAMES, Falmouth 1657, m. Ann, eldest d. of George Lewis, had James, b. 1662; and other ch. all taken by the Ind. 11 Aug. 1676. After 1678, with his fam. he went back to Falmouth, liv. at Back Cove; but at the sec. destruct. of the town in 1690, again was taken and carr. to Canada, whence in Oct. 1695, one of the name, prob. the s. was ransom, and aft. liv. says Wilis, at Salem. JOHN, Cambridge, m. 7 May 1659, at Boston, Mary, d. of John Osborn of Weymouth, had Sarah, b. 21 May 1660; and at Malden had Mary, 24 Apr. 1675. JOHN prob. of Ipswich, m. 28 Aug. 1663, Deborah, d. of Christopher Osgood the first. KILLECRISS, or KILLCROSS, wh. may be the same as some name nearer to a common one, perhaps Gilchrist, was of Ipswich 1678. THOMAS, Cambridge. 1659, m. 16 Jan. 1662, Seth, d. of William Holman, had Thomas, wh. d. 19 Jan. 1663; Margaret, bapt.

He had good est. prob. in Co. Somerset or Devon for Hutch. I, 17, by wh. alone any informat. is glean, (even the exquis. dilig. of Prince fails to add any thing to his master Winthrop) says his son (as if he had only one) liv. at Combe, in Devon, and his gr.s.

HUGH, Dorchester, not prob. s. of the preced. tho. he had gr. of small lot in 1635, was of Taunton 1637, among the earliest set.

See the official papers in 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. VII. 240; Hutch. II. 1654-162; and the wonderful letters of Increase and Cotton Mather to D. with his reply in 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 126-137. 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."

His s. Isaac was cho. a Provine, Counsel, and serv. a [[584]] long period as rep. but standing for the crown, on the outburst of the revo. he went to Eng. and d. Oct. 1781. Sabine says, in Amer. Loyalist, 582, that his prop. was confiscat. If so, the claws of the harpies employ. did not reach all, for he enjoy. a patriot gentlemen's revenge, and show, his resentment in making gift of more than 2,000 acres in Worcester Co. to Harv.
