CLOSING ADDRESS.
THE task, that, near twenty years since, was assumed by
me, is now ended ; and no regret is felt for the time devoted to
it. Pleasure and duty have been equally combined. In the
result some exultation might be felt, if success rewarded dili
gence, and proficiency had always followed patience ; but in
parts of so wide a range around genealogy, as this of New Eng
land, frequent failures ought to be anticipated, since the tri
umphs even within the narrow space traversed, in their long
campaigns, by Bond or Shattuck, Judd or Goodwin, proved
imperfect. Gleaners may find reward in following even their
footsteps.
For a partial indication of the ample assistance from modern
copious correspondence, a reference to my preface in Vol. I.
may seem sufficient ; yet it appears requisite, in this valedictory
obeisance to subscribers, to desire their forgiveness for the awk
wardness they may discover, that among the ten or twelve
thousand items of improvement in or increase upon the first
text, as herein set forth, not a few hundred additions to additions
with a score or two of corrections for corrections are inter
spersed. Of such materials the History of Watertown has
subjoined 303 pages to its first 672; and parallel to such over
flow might always be expected in a larger work, though not in
exact proportion to its size. To exhaust the vocabulary of a
civilized nation in a living tongue would appear impossible, for
we all know, that new streams are constantly flowing into it
from sources before unknown ; and similar supplies, by analogy,
in a dictionary to set forth the origin of our families subsisting
one hundred and seventy years ago, may naturally arise. Una-

voidable omissions in these two thousand five hundred closely
marshalled pages ought, therefore, to be expected ; but if neither
residence nor time were given, no right to a place for a new
surname on my page would be yielded, though popular opinion
traced the pretender to a Plantagenet, or his veins swelled with
all the blood of all the Howards. Half a million, I presume, of
those incidents may be found in this work. Blanks, not above
two or three in the thousand, I believe, may remain in the myr
iads of names of family or baptism, and, I hope, the erroneous
may only slightly outnumber the deficient.
Some notes of events and of men have been lost, probably,
though only a single instance, but of half a line, occurs to my
recollection, and this is more cause of sorrow, than surprise,
when T remember how many hundred have been written twice,
thrice, and even four times over. To a few, who consult these
volumes, such vacancies may give no disquiet, as thereby room
was gained for a little general biography or historical criticism
in place of the multitudinous ocean of numerals, or names as
little discriminated as fortemque Gyan, fortemque Cloanthum.
But never was such occasion made, however easily found by
one who will feel pleasant surprise at a rare deviation from
predominant dulness. I have dared to express, in a very few
instances, my sense of the need of correction in old contempo
rary statements of history, either public or private, and more
gladly to detect the modern adoption of idle traditions that
kept long out of sight, when their small value would not have
;saved, the perpetuation of trifling fictions.
May not some degree of favor be extended to my departure
from the narrow circle of universal genealogy to snatch a few
additional lines for some and sentences for others bearing prom
inent names like Bellingham, Burrows, Chauncey, Clark, Da
venport, Dudley, Eaton, Endicott, Goflfe, Hoar, Hopkins, Hull,
Jackson, Johnson, Leverett, Mather, Osgood, Paddy, Parker,
Phips, Pratt, Rogers, Saltonstall, Scroop, Sherman, Smith,
'Temple, Welde, Whalley, Wigglesworth, Williams, Wilson,
and Winthrop.
The prosecution of this work has continued without inter
ruption in this long course of years, except twice, in both cases
from illness, first, short but severe, more than fourteen years

ago, next, lighter and longer, less than four years since ; yet
from the time printing of the volumes began, Dec. 1858, no
day has passed without progress, except the legal holidays.
By the majority who in careless hours may turn over these
columns, the scrupulous diligence of the printer will justly be
more observed than the research of the author, who should feel
sufficient reward, if his countrymen acknowledge they have no
further claim to use of his pen after the owner's reaching so
near the age of fourscore. Still my rejoicing should be rather,
that my service is finished, than that I have no more to do.
No slight vexation arose from defeat of my utmost vigilance
in gathering the desired additions to this immense array of
names, collected while the volumes have been passing under
the press ; but it was soothed by reflecting how many would
show no regard to the defect, and better still how liberal would
be the allowance of the few that duly weighed the excuse by
making the suffering their own. I desire the reader in

had degr. of M. D. at the Univ. of Padua, and 24 June 1652, at Oxford,

was, with less regard to rules, our William Stoughton ; but place of his
later resid. or date of his d. is unkn. See Wood's Athene Oxon.
J * NATHANIEL, Haverhill, s. of Richard the sec. was prob. the first male
of this disting. fam. b. on our side of the ocean, freem. 1665, rep. 1666,
8-71, Assist. 1679 and until the vacat. of our old chart. 1686, but again
on overthrow of Andros, tho. the k. had made him one of the counc. to
Dudley ; yet was nam. again in the new chart, and a judge of the Sup.
Ct.in 1692, when he refus. participat. in the monstrous trials for witchcr.
leav. his seat to be occup. by Jonathan Corwin, br. of the sheriff that
was call, to hang so many innocent victims. But many yrs. he was
head of the Essex militia. He m. 28 Dec. 1663, Eliz. d. of Rev. John
Ward, had Gurdon, b. 27 Mar. 1666, H. C. 1684, the disting. min. of
New London, and Gov. of Conn, (so nam. for Brampton Gurdon the

Of his hon. descend, large acco. may be read in 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. IV.

Watertown. || PETER, by the hist, of the Ancient and Hon. Art. Co.
made one of the corps 1 644, is prob. a name without right giv. by Whit
man, as if he were s. of Sir Richard, for no such person is ever heard of
elsewhere, and Bond rejects it as any of our N. E. stock. Orig. rec. of
that famous milit. band have been lost above a hundred and fifty yrs.

I RICHARD, Watertown, the knight, s. of Samuel, -and neph. of Sir
Richard, mayor of London in the time of C$een Eliz. was from the
neighb. of Halifax, in the W. Riding of Co. York, in the royal chart, of
4 Mar. 1629 first nam. of the 18 Assist, came 1630 in the fleet bring, all

two ds. Rosamond and Grace, and one of his younger s. prob. Samuel,
he left N. E. for home 1 Apr. 1631, hav. attend, eight of the nine sess.
of the Ct. of Assist, and was fin. for abs. at that of 7 Sept. preced.
Earnest, he befriend, our country in Eng. by thought, word, and deed ;
and was active, with the Lords Brooke, Say and Seal and other pu
ritans in the first settlem. of Conn. By his first w. Grace, d. of Robert
;, Esq. of Yorksh. he had four s. Richard, b. 1610 ; Robert; Sam
uel ; and Henry ; two ds. Rosamond, perhaps the eldest ch. and Grace.
By uncert. tradit. he is giv. two other ws. one said to be d. of the Earl
of Delavvarr, for wh. in Collins's Peerage no support can be seen, and
the other, less improb. Martha Wilford ; but no ch. is ascrib. to either.
He was, with s. Henry, in Holland 1644, perhaps min. to the States, and
there was paint, the likeness of wh. engrav. is seen in the sec. vol. of
Mass. Hist. Soc. Proceed. His will was made 1658, at the age of 72.
%* RICHARD, Ipswich, s. of the preced. by his f. brot. 1630, hav. left

fellow commoner, 18 Apr. 1627, from Yorksh. and matricula. 14 Dec.

made first offic. under Endicott, of the Essex regim. when only two
were in the Col. went home again, perhaps for the health of his w. 1 649,
as told in the anecdote relat. of Rev. John Cotton in note to Hutch. I.
94. For many yrs. he was not chos. Assist, but in 1664 in hope of
his com. again, the honor was renew, and it was erron. assert, that he
had been aft. in the country, bee. in 1672 he gave £50. to relief of
Goffe and Whalley, the regicides. In 1680, however, he was once more
in Mass, and in May organizat. made an Assist, tak. the o. in Aug. wh.
was renew, in 1681 and 2, but in this latter yr. he went home again, as

29 Apr. 1694, at Hulme, in Lancashire, at the ho. of Sir Edward

Queen Anne, the friend of Pope and Swift, well kn. as Earl of Oxford
(see Collins's Peerage, IV. 244, Ed. 5, and correct the slight error
there) ; beside Eliz. wh. m. Hercules Horsey, Esq. Instruct, may be
got as to the just value of tradit. from a note in Hutch. II. 122, in wh.
is read the story of a letter from Mrs. Harley to her sis. in N. E. that
was many yrs. preserv. aft. the d. of that disting. statesman, for this pas
sage in it: "I am now going to carry Bob. up to the inns of ct. to
make a man of him," and Hutch, wh. seldom falls into such an error,
makes the mo. ".gr.d. of Sir Richard S." and this H. introduc. by refer.
to u a tradit. that Harley had some N. E. blood in him, his mo. being a
gr.d. of Sir Richard S." Now beside that this gr.d. of Sir Richard S.
had no sis. here to write unto, the tale is false in the most vital pt. as
usual, for she, being w. of his uncle, not of his f. could transmit no blood
to the Lord High Treasurer. || ROBERT, Watertown, br. of the preced.
ar. co. 1638, was prob. at Windsor 1640-2, engag. for his f. or elder br.
but allow. Francis Stiles to lead him into gr. useless expense, from wh.
both suffer, inconven. to their dying day. He d. 1650, unm. ; in his will
of 13 June, pro. 15 Aug. nam. only relat. his f. brs. Richard, Samuel,
and Henry, sis. Rosamond and Grace, and made John Clark excor. wh.
forthwith renounc. his office. See Geneal. Reg. VII. 334. SAMUEL,
"Watertown, br. of the preced. of wh. we would glad. kn. more than
Farmer told of his d. 21 Jan. 1696. Even in the gr. Hist, of W. Bond
could add only that admin, was tak. in Oct. foil, by his neph. Nathaniel,
saying that he had no active participat. in munici. concerns, nor is w. or

of the finest letters of that age from his sis. Rosamond, 22 Apr. 1644.
She was then resid. in conseq. of the loss of his prop, by her f. in the
family of the puritan Earl of Warwick, Ld. High Adm. and her sis.
with the lady of the Earl of Manchester, one of the ch. command,
in the civil war. Of descend, of Sir Richard, in the male line, thirteen

his uncle, Edward Tilley, a youth too small to sign the immortal compact
of Nov. at Cape Cod ; but whether, or not, entit. in the div. of Ids. he

almost incredib. murder, with an axe, 6 June 1678, Zipporah, w. of
Thomas Bolles, with two of her ch. Joseph, and Mary, and soon aft.
murder. John Sampson, s. of his mo. aged betw. one and two yrs. as by
his own confess, is seen in the rec. of his trial at Hartford. For the
soundness of the maxim in common law, malitia supplet setatem, I believe,
no stronger proof can be found, since the creation, in the stories of juven.
depravity. He acknowl. that he k. his br. with a hatchet " bee. he cried,
and bee. he did not love the ch. nor his f." and was execut. 9 Oct. foil.
RICHARD, by Farmer call, of Boston, the freem. of 1674, I dare not
accept, but think, was rather appropr. by New Hampsh. ROBERT,
Boston 1 630, came in the same sh. with Gov. Winth. wh. calls him cous.
in a let. to his w. Apr. bef. depart, from Isle of Wight. His fam. was
ancient, in the rank of knights, resid. at Sampson's Hall, in the parish of
Kersey, adj. Groton, where W. was patron as well as lord of the manor.
He was s. of John, by Bridget Clopton, sis. of the sec. w. of our Gov.
W. By Whitman he is count, a memb. of the ar. co. 1639; but it
seems far more prob. (as we never hear of him aft.) that he was some
yrs. gone home. ROGER, Ipswich 1654. STEPHEN, Duxbury, s. of
Henry, had Benjamin ; Cornelius ; Hannah ; Mary ; Eliz. ; John, b. 17
Aug. 1688 ; Dorcas; and Abigail.

at Coggeshall, in Co. Essex, was success, in the pulpit of celebr. John
Owen, D. D. says Calamy, from wh. he was eject. 1675 ; and the eccles.

Weld, of capt. John Johnson, and of Joseph Weld, a. 1640, to amount,

ex'con. for £51. got the whole, in pt. satisfact. thereof, by appraisem. at
£42, 17, 8^, so that little benefit of his acres was enjoy, by the poor
scholar, wh. could not redeem his est. See Dudley's investit. in Reg. of
Suff 'k. Deeds, I. 37. RALPH, Dorchester, a tailor, rem. to Boston bef.
1659; and was liv. 1663. THOMAS, Salem, had gr. of Id. in 1638, as
Felt tells, and liv. at Marblehead 1648. Yet he may have been of
Roxbury 1637, and one of the appraisers on inv. of Edward Blackley.

call, mariner in 1656 ; and he d. 8 Dec. 1662, or his inv. was then made.
SAMWAYS, SAMWAYES, SAMOIS, or SAMWIS, JOHN, Huntington, L. I.

able to discern what portion of these eleven ch. all liv. in 1721, were b.
respective, by ea. as great unwillingness must be felt at inflict, the whole

SANDERBANT, JOHN, the freem. of 10 May 1643, is, I doubt not,
blunder of Mr. Seer, for Sunderland, as shall in that place be explain.

SANKEYS, * ROBERT, Saco, came in the Increase from London, Apr.
1635, aged 30, sent by Robert Cordell, a goldsmith of Lombard street,
says the rec. at custom-ho. appears as a witness with Cleves and
Tucker, to the import, deed of 30 Mar. preced. from Richard Vines,
agent of Sir Ferdinando Gorges, to Arthur Mackworth. Mr. Willis, in
Hist, of Portland, I. 32, recit. the docum. makes it 1635, as "in the
eleventh yr. of Charles," keeping in mind, that the tenth yr. of that
reign end. 27 Mar. 1635, of course three days later was within the
eleventh. Now this witness was then in London, and so, I suppose, tho.
dated in 1635, the indent, was not actually deliver, for some months aft.
Possib. eleventh may be error of the instrum. for twelfth. But I leave
the solution to the perspicacity of so good a judge. He was appoint, by
Gorges, in 1640, Provost Marshal, and sat in the first Gen. Ct. of that
Province, with other dignitaries, 25 June of that yr. "Willis, I. 47. Of

suppos. to have gone home, but he was never ord. acting only as lay

that he rem. to Barnstable, where a will of one William, 9 Mar. 1680,

WILLIAM, Rowley, freem. 13 May 1640.
SCAMMON, SCAMMAN, or ScAMMOND, HUMPHREY, Kittery, or Saco,

Collins, had Mary, b. 25 Nov. foil, and his w. d. next 9 Nov. and he d.

May 1640, unless the Col. rec. of Shurtleff, I. 377, justify an earlier

Grafton excor. calls him br. as also James Lind, and br. Browning, and
his w. and sis. Dennis. All these, I think, refer to Christian soc. but
she ment. her own ch. Mary, Margaret, and Joseph ; arid when she nam.
br. Samuel in Eng. she means, I suppose, kinsm. and he may have been
f. of this apprent. Yet, as to the fam. of the testator, I see no more
light. JOHN, Springfield 1640, was then constable, rem. to Boston
1650, by w. Thomasine had Mary and Jane, tw. b. 21 Sept. 1653 ; per

order of success, exc. that the two s. last nam. were by sec. w. nor will
conject. be reasona. to determine the priority of the d. whose h.'s name

SCRANTON, DENNIS, New Haven 1600, gave mformat. perhaps rather
minute, than trustworthy, about Whalley and Goffe, to Gov. Endicott's
pursuivants in 16G1. See Hutch. Coll. 335 for the curious docum. But
they mistook the name, and should have writ. Crampton. JOHN, Guil-
ford 1650, whose w. Joanna d. 1651, is among freem. of 1669. For

and d. at Wethersfield, 13 Mar. 1693, in his will giv. prop, to William
Goodrich, as Hinman, 232, tells ; yet it is more prob. that there was no
such Nathaniel S. and that the testator's name was Crampton. THOM
AS, Guilford, s. of the first John, was propos. for freem. 1676, and next
yr. accept.; had two ws. first, Deborah Thompson, wid. of Ebenezer,
and sec. Eliz. Goodrich ; but had only two ch. that grew up to mature
life, Samuel, and Hannah.

SCROOP, ADRIAN, Hartford, witness to execut. of a deed of 31 Mar.
1665, and again, 8 May 1667 sign, as witness, his name, in a very elegant
hand, to deed of Simon Wolcott to Richard Loud of three parcels of Id.
wh. was put on rec. 3 days aft. yet no more is ever told of him. Curi
osity to a high pitch naturally is felt on two points in this case, when
did he come to our country, and what did he do aft. sign, that rare
name. One Adrian Scrope, we kn. had been execut. in London, 17
Oct. 1660, for hav. sat on the pretend, trial of k. Charles I. and sign,
the warrant for his d. In Noble's Regicides the rep. of his trial is very
full, much more than most of the others. Strong prob. from union of
such giv. name and surname arises, that this man was s. or near relat. of
the regicide ; and Dr. Stiles, in the latter part of his extraord. book
relative to the three judges, that found shelter at New Haven, appeals to
proof from hd.writ. in the fac-simile of the death warrant of Charles and
the rec. of this deed at Hartford, for, strange as it seems, the attestation
of the deed is by the witnesses on the rec. itself as well as on the docum.
The Doctor's eye saw more than mine, and he appears almost satisf. with
the identity of the writing, as if Col. Scrope were in person at H. six
yrs. and a half aft. his head was cut off. Between 29 Jan. 1649, when
he affix, his hd. and seal to that writ, order, the subord. officer at such an
hour next day to put the k. to d. and this Hartford act 8 Mar. 1667, I
would not affirm, that Col. Scrope's writing could not vary much, had not
the solemn execution of the 17 Oct. 1660 interven. Stiles was a man
of wonderful capacity of belief, and the estimate of his judgment in
this matter is reduced by a mistake of the name of the other witness in
this very docum. writ. Reeve, but by the President made Robert Pierce.
Beside, the difference of names between the London sufferer, wh. used
but one o, and our Hartford witness that doubled the letter, is not ment.
SCRUGGS, * THOMAS, Salem, came with the few companions of Endi-
cott in the Abigail, 1628, says Felt, yet this relies solely on tradit. and
might seem too early, for he did not take o. of freem. until 2 Sept. 1635 ;
but he was esteem, eno. to be chos. to three Gen. Cts. next yr. also
authoriz. with others to hold special Ct. for the .vicinage, and was a
selectman. But for his heretic, pravity he was next yr. supersed. and
in Nov. disarm, as a danger, man, like the majority of Boston ch.
I suppose he had w. Margery, and that he d. early in 1652; and that
Felt mistook his name as if it were William ; and that, as the wid. gave
up to her s.-in-law John Raymond in June 1652 her est. in dower, she
may have gone home, or perhaps was the woman that d. 26 Jan. 1663.

^ * || SEDGWICK, ROBERT, Charlestown 1636, prob. came 1635 in the
Truelove, aged 24, tho. in the custom-ho. rec. the name appears Jo. inst.
of Ro. join, the ch. with w. Joanna, on 27 Feb. 1637, and was made
freem. 9 Mar. foil, when he was appoint, capt. for the town by our Ct.
and chos. next mo. rep. and aft. for sixteen Cts. more. His neighb.
capt. Edward Johnson, in Wonder work. Provicl. c. 26 of book ii., the
most valua. of that curious vol. assures us, that he was " nurst up in
London's Artil. garden ; " and our rec. show, that he was one of the
found, of our art. co. 1638, its capt. 1640, command, of the castle 1641,
head of the regim. of Middlesex 1643, and last, maj.-gen. of the Col.
soon aft. call, by O. Cromwell to milit. serv. with John Leverett (aft. our
Gov<) for his sec. and bef. long time sent to Jamaica, recent, conquer.
There he d. 24 May 1656. Joanna, the Gen.'s wid. was liv. 1667 at
Stepney, near London. By her he had Samuel, bapt. 31 Mar. 1639;
and Hannah, 14 Mar. 1641; beside William, and Robert, wh. prob.
were his ch. and Sarah, b. certain, in Eng. as may have been these s.
Certainty is beyond our reach, bee. the rec. of town is imperfect, and the
ch. rec. of bapt. from 20 Sept. 1642 to 4 July 1658 is a total, sad blank
space. Our Charlestown soldier, in letters of Nov. 1655, pray, leave to
come from Jamaica to London, recommends his w. and five ch. to the
kindness of the Lord Protector, and we have only to regret, that his
pathetic appeal was disregard. Frothingham, 135-9, is copious and
correct. Sarah bee. sec. w. of Gov. Leverett. Whether she were sis.
or d. might be disput. and this point that Mather ought to have elucidat.
is confus. by him. Yet high is the prob. if her d. 2 Jan. 1705 is accomp.
with correct statem. that she was 74 yrs. old, that she was b. in Eng.
and was eldest ch. of the disting. soldier. ROBERT, Charlestown, s. of
the preced. as confident, is presum. b. prob. in Eng. by w. Sarah had
William, b. 9 June 1676; and Sarah, 19 Dec. 1677. He d. on a
return voyage from Jamaica, leav. trifl. est. of wh. admin, was giv. to
his wid. Sarah, 26 Apr. 1683. SAMUEL, br. of the preced. was of
Charlestown not long, but chief, liv. at London, had w. Eliz. prob. hoped
to obt. some reward for serv. of his f. but long bef. his m. he was witness
to the will, 17 June 1657, of Jonathan Wade of our Ipswich, then at L.
and it is curious, that his signature was pro. in Eng. by his wid. 1 Dec.
1683, then aged only 33 yrs. and she says he was her h. six yrs.
" Citizen and clothworker of London," he calls hirns. in a deed of 20
May 1667, whereby he sold his ho. and Id. in C. to Francis Willoughby.

that he d. on return from the W. I. to Boston.

tells, that he rec. with his first w. " as common, report, thirty thousand

addit. to that tale, that she was put into the scales against an equal load
of her f.'s coin. Slight arithmetic would prove, that f. and d. together
would scarce, balance one tenth of the silver ; so that if we strike out
one «of the cyphers from that 30000, and assume that dollars were the

with those the royal commissnrs. honor, in giv. office, wh. might seem to

* NICHOLAS, Charlestown, s. of Nicholas the first, was a major, dism. in
July 1669, by the County Court, from that office, as a Quaker, but his
nearer neighb. contin. to trust his goodness, made him rep. 1696, and he

Happi. that project, caus. some trouble by adverse claim of Plymouth,
and more by the iniquit. pursuit of the poor Gortonists, to drive them
from Warwick, was overthrown, by the Charter giv. to Roger Williams ;
and both the unjust pretensions were abandon. See Winth. II. 252.
To support the Mass, claim, and defeat the R. I. chart, of 14 Mar. 1644,
a fictitious gr. of that territory bear, date 10 Dec. preced. that is earlier
by 94 days, was brot. out from the files in our Secretary's office by Mr.
Felt, and aft. slumber of two hundred and thirteen yrs. innocent, publ.
in Geneal. Reg. XI. 41, 2, 3. I have examin. the orig. parchm. and
have no doubt of its worthless character, as several of the signatures, if
not all, are pretty evident forgeries ; and scrupulous history would be
content with the declarat. of the Earl of Warwick, whose name is the
first sign, of course, as he was the first man in the Parliament's commiss.
for the N. E. Planta. He (as Roger Williams wrote to John Mason of
Conn.) said that he had not sign, any such patent bef. that of 14 Mar.
" and he was sure, that chart, wh. the Mass. Englishmen pretend, had
never passed the table." In 1 645 Dudley was our Gov. and we may be
sure, he had no belief in it, or he would have relied on its absolute grant
when writing to the governm. of Plymouth. He makes no refer, to it.
Endicott, the Gov. of 1644, and Winthrop, the ch. ruler of 1646, 7, and
8, must despise it, aft. they knew it was denounc. as no act of the
signers in Eng. How, and by wh. this docum. was fabricat. may be a
curious question. Not a single seal of the pretend, nine signers is attach,
but three of them, Rudyard, Vassal, and Bond, in their solemn order of
15 May 1646, giv. in full by Winth. II. 280-2; — four of them, Hesel-

rige and Corbet, in equal, solemn act of 22 July 1647, with the two
Earls of Warwick and Manchester, Winth. II. 319; — and the same
four in a prior letter of 25 May 1647, Winth. II. 320, implicit, deny
any such grant to Mass. So that we have seven of the nine denounc.
the spurious act, and four of them twice over, and the two Earls even
thrice. Prob. the parchm. was sent by one or both of the former Mass.
agents, Hugh Peter and Thomas Welde ; but I ought not to charge on
either of them an intent to deceive, unless a false date led irresitab.
to such deduct. It was only a draft or project of a patent, it might be
said; Imt that 10 Dec. 1643 was a Sunday. A judicial blindness
seems to have attend, base or childish attempts at forgery in the remarka.
instances of tak. the Lord's day for date of the magnific. grant of all New
Hampsh. 17 May 1629, usual, call, the Wheelwright deed, — the petty
convey, to Brewster of only eighty acres at Portsmouth, 6 Dec. 1629, —
and this charter or patent to rob R. I. of all the territo. both E. and W. of
Narraganset Bay, 10 Dec. 1643. Sic SEMPER INJUSTIS. A subsequent
or aft. thot. was, indeed, the contrivance of Welde in his famous issue
of " Antinomians and Familists, &c." near. a. the same time. But such
jugglery is more to be expect, in a controversial pamphlet, than a solemn
State docum. Rogues must always dread the sun, and sometimes the
almanac.* The w. of S. was Margaret, and he d. Sept. 1650, she surv.
*A brief note (on the first word of the last sentence of this invalua. docum.
" Yeouen"), by Mr. Felt, is very significant. It proves that Chaucer, wh. d. 244 yrs.
bef. employ, the term for Given. Aft. Chaucer it was not prob. used in many cases ;
but between the time of bloody Queen Mary, and booby King James, it must have
given way to our modern word. The use of it proves too much by a great deal, if
intend, to indicate the issue of the deed Dec. 1643 bef. that of Mar. 1644. In those
94 days our language did not so rapid, improve ; but near twelve times as many
months, I suppose, our generous had supersed. the barbarous term, at least in solemn
acts of States; and we all feel, that the right of existence in a large community
should not be sett, by a point of verbal criticism.
Since the foregoing was written, I have gained the benefit of the sec. Vol. of the
Hist, of X. E. and find that Dr. Palfrey (whose inspection nothing escapes) had felt
more than one difficulty on this subject. A valua. note on p. 217 states, "respect
ing this patent," " there are some things obscure." He then adopts the suggest, that
"it was prob. obt. by Welde," concur, with the presumpt. express, in the Rcc. of
R. I. II. 162 ; but aggravates the palpable obscure by a most reasona. conject. that it
was " without authority from Mass." Yet it would seem very odd, that a solemn
patent conveying jurisdict. from the sovereign power of Eng. to the colony of Mass.
over the whole of the present State of R. I. should be solicit, by a private man for
her without any commiss. thereunto. Next, the acumen of the historian observes,
that " Williams's patent CONFLICTS with it ; and we are left without informal, as to
the cause wh. could have led to such an inconsistency on the part of the Commissnrs."

Corbet, and Wm. Spurs to we on 14 Mar. 1644, conflicts with the possibility of their
having on 10 Dec. preced. grant, and convey, similar, aye the same, power and au
thority to an antagonist, comp. Still, it is not only the conflict we inquire about, but
the ease with wh. the weaker side prevail. ; and so the persevering scrutiny rilxt finds
remarka. " the forbearance of Mass, to found anv practical claim upon it." Great
sagacity is observa. in suggest, of the reason by the elaborate writer, — "to have been
the caution of her magistr. a. involv. thems. in an admissn. of the lawfulness of the authty.
intrusted to the Parliamenta. Commissnrs." Here seems much more refinement than
solidity ; but all need of such exercise of skill was taken away very soon, when it was
found that the pretended patent was only a flimsy fabrication. Dr. Palfrey had
on the former p. refer, to a letter in Gov. Winth's. Hist. II. 193, from the E. of
Northumberland and eleven others of the princip. leaders in affairs, of wh. eight were
not Commissnrs. of plantations, and took notice that only three whose names are
sign, to the spurious parchm. as Commissnrs. unit, with that recommend, of Ro.
Williams to friend, treatm. and therefore puts an inquiry — Were the Commissnrs.
cautious a. compromis. their dignity by demand, of Mass, what she was not unlikely to
deny ? I can ascribe ho such exquisite craft to our friends in Eng. especial, bee. in
Nov. 1646 the Commissnrs. Order of 15 May preced. (relat. to Gorton and Holden),
so clear, asserts the wrong in views of Mass. " We find withal that the tract of Id.
call, the Narraganset Bay (concerning wh. the questn. is arisen), was divers yr.s. since
inhab. by those of Providence, Portsmouth, and Newport, wh. are interest, in the
compl. and that the same is wholly without the bounds of the Mass, patent gr. by his
Majesty." This is on the page in Winth. II. 281, next to that quoted by the modern
hist, to explain why Mass, would not take a charter.
Deep, as is felt the shame for such deception, that led our governm. to inform Wil
liams of the recent reception (27 Aug. 1645) of a charter, dat. 10 Dec. 1643, giv. to
Mass, the Narraganset Bay, and a certain tract of Id. wherein Providence and the. isl.
of Quidy were includ. as in Palfrey II. 217 is plainly told, we may well exult at the
speedy triumph of equity and right in E. I. and Providence Plantations (feeble as
that side seem.) over the formidab. array of the four proA'inces confedcrat. Fiat

Connecticut and Plymouth, wh. were each stimulat. to claim part of this territo.
that now forms one of the glorious old thirteen U. S. (at least, the greater part by one
and the remainder by the other) seem easi. to have discern, the futili. of such claims ;
and I believe that Gov. Bradford has not permit, even a word on the right of his
col. over R. I. to appear in his copious Hist. The love of justice and a true sense
"of honor soon brought Gov. Winth. to relinquish the whole jurisdict. E. of the
Pawcatuck riv. It is curious to read the modesty of statement by the recent hist, of
E. I. in the instructive pages 118 and 119 of Gov. Arnold. The sanctity of that
parchm. was assumed at Providence, in 1859, as it had been in 1645, at Boston;
but henceforward I hope, that neither patriotism nor timidity will be called to believe
a lie.

Coll. tho. Mather (wh. so common, is wrong in minute matters), says
Emanuel ; but that is of far less importance than his elaborate error
a. subscription, as by king James's rules exacted, bef. the University
honors : " When his turn came to be a grad." says the Magnalia, " he

relat. and reach. Boston in June. At Watertown he resid. near a yr.
and was dism. with others from the ch. at W. 29 May 1635, says Bond,
to form a new one on the Conn. riv. tho. we read in the Magn. " not
many wks. at W. bef. he rem. upon mature adv. unto New Haven."
Now instead of not many whs. we know New Haven was not sett, until
more than four yrs. after he arr. at W. Such is the perpetual laxity of
narrative in the ecclesiast. histori. of N. E. Beside this, it was not to
New Haven that he first went, but to Hartford and Wethersfield, where
the attractions of Hooker or Smith were strong eno. and at the latter he
obt. gr. of a house lot alongside of that giv. by Rev. Henry Smith to
his s. Samuel. Prob. no work in the ch. was early desir. or at least
gain, for he was releas. from serv. of watch and ward not until 1640 at
May sess. of Gen. Ct. Soon aft. he sold to Thomas Bunce his Wethers-
field lot, and rem. to Milford, join, the ch. there, yet acting only in civ.
life, rep. 1643, and preach, for short season in 1645 for the early days
of Branford. There he was desir. to sett, as their min. but no ch. was
then gather. By first w. Mary (wh. d. says the ch. rec. at M. 8 Sept.
1644), he had, says Mather, six ch. wh. is liable to doubt (tho. we are
igno. of the date of m. as well as the parents of w.) for it is not prob.
that he was m. in Eng. nor in our country bef. 1638, then 24 yrs. old.
Four ch. are ment. Mary, b. perhaps in 1639 ; Bezaleel, bapt. at M. 15
Nov. 1640, H. C. 1661 ; Daniel, 27 Mar. 1642; and Samuel, 14 Apr.
1644, wh. prob. d. soon. At New Haven he m. sec. w. Mary Launce,
late in 1645, a maiden in the fam. of Gov. Eaton, and glad eno. must
she have been to escape the perpetual trouble grow, from the unhap.
temper of the w. of the Gov. full report of wh. is giv. in Appx. to the
charm. Hist. Discours. of Rev. Dr. Bacon. By her he had Samuel,
again, bapt. at N. H. 23 Aug. 1646, and next yr. he rem. to "Watertown,
wh. on req. obt. his dismis. from Milford ch. 8 Nov. 1647. With more
than his usual exuberance of invent. Mather makes it " upon the d. of
Phillips" (that was in July 1644), Watertown offer, a call and he
accept, tho. he adds, " at the same time one of the chhs. at Boston used
their endeav. to bee. the owner of so well talented a person, and sev.
chhs. in London also by lett. much urged him to come over and help
them." If this be true (wh. is quite unlike.) for London, we kn. it must
be false for B. since there was only one ch. many yrs. later, and in that
Cotton and Wilson could wish or rec. no collea. Our sec. ch. where
Mather was all his days a min. was not gather, bef. 5 June 1650, and
could sett, no pastor bef. Nov. 1655. Stranger than such inexcusa.
carelessn. however, is what he tells of this w. call her mo. d. of Darcy,
Earl Rivers, one of the Popish Counsellors of Charles I. wh. had no d.
that m. a Launce ; and next, in mak. this w. bring " no less than twenty
SHERMAN. 81
ch. add. unto the number of six, wh. he had bef." Authority for such
improb. he design, his reader should infer, I suppose, from tell, in the
begin, of the sentence, " by the d. of that Mr. Launce, ivh. is yet liv. among
us, Sherman had no less than, &c." To this fable full credit was long
giv. bee. it obt. the sober sanction of Hutch. I. 19, a relative of Mather,
more than once misled by him. But in our day, a descend, of Sherman
by this w. aft. bestow, large investigat. with adequate critical skill, puts
the result, 1851, with "special wonder" in Geneal. Reg. V. 307, as not
" establ. the Darcy lineage." The writer refers to an emin. Eng. anti
quary, wh. had been very slow to reject the tale even of Mather, or to
distrust so judicious an auth. as Hutch, but pursu. the inq. long, and
wrote me the issue, three yrs. later, "aft. all the attent. I have paid to
Mr. Willard's point, there is no satisfacto. conclus. arr. at ; and I am
inclin. to think, that there was real, no particle of truth in the report wh.
Mather had receiv. and has giv. circul. to." Equal distrust is more
natur. felt a. the number of ch. that led our ecclesiast. hist, to dilate in
eight and twenty lines on " such a Polytokie," as he tersely or foolishly
calls it. Suspicion arises from this fact, that exactly one less than half
of the twenty-six ch. giv. to both ws. have never found a name either in
rec. or benevol. tradit. See Bond, 432. Yet one more, Benjamin, was
prob. lost from the rec. (by wearing out the paper) of b. 23 Apr. 1661,
and d. 14 Oct. 1662. By the sec. w. wh. long outliv. him, d. 9 Mar.
1710, we see, then, ten ch. or at most eleven, instead of twenty, were b.
and whence could the error arise ? Aft. the b. of the first ch. the f. was
always at "Watertown, there as min. he would make rec. of bapt. of his
own, as well as of others ; but the rec. is lost, and we have to seek in
town rec. for entry of births ; and fortunate, his cous. of the same name
was many yrs. the elk. Five only are thus found, Abigail, 3 Feb. 1648;
Joanna, 3 Sept. 1652; Mary, 5 Mar. 1657; Grace, 10 Mar. 1659;
and John, 17 Mar. 1660; but with more or less confidence, beside Ben
jamin, five more can be read in Bond (tho. the first two are count, by
him as of first w.), James, bef. ment. Abiah, Eliz. Esther, and Mercy.
Sometimes I have suspect, that the ch. of both contempo. Johns were
count, for one by the informant of Mather, and very exact is the rec. of
seven of capt. John, part. bef. part. aft. he bee. elk. and so by office
bound to kn. bs. ds. and ms. No weight can be denied to such surmise
from the fact of differ, names of the ws. of Rev. John and capt. John,
for the prefix of respect in h. is less likely to be omit, than the bapt.
name in w. With all his assidu. Bond could not satisfy hims. How
Mather got this story of the fruitful vine, conject. would be various, if
anyways reasona. The eldest d. of this sec. w. could not have told it to
him, for she d. the yr. of Mather's bachelor's degr. 20 yrs. bef. his book
82 SHERMAN.
was writ, and her mo. (wh. was liv. aft. the light of the immortal author
had shone upon the readers of Magnalia a dozen yrs.) could not be so
monstrous, wrong in the tale of her own cliildr. But if she did give
him these myths of her noble descent and prolific felicity, either she was
insane, wh. he had not sanity eno. to discov. or she was irreverent,
playing on his bottomless credulity. More prob. however, seems this
solution, that much of what he had heard about Sherman was forgotten,
and sev. stories turn, into one, and he tax. his fancy (that was always
lively, especial, at a marvel), for some incidents, and confus. the whole.
Sherman was adm. freem. of Mass. 1669, and was struck with fever and
delirium in the pulpit of his s. at Sudbury where he preach, his last

hardly indicate the line. He had Samson, and Samuel, perhaps more.

d. bef. 1660, leav. ch. Samuel, Nathaniel, and Mary Clark, but wh. was
the w. is not seen. SAMUEL, Boston, husbandman, perhaps br. of Philip,
by w. Grace had Philip, b. 31 Dec. 1637 ; Martha, 5 Sept. 1639 ; both
bapt. 8 Mar. 1640 ; Nathaniel, 19 Dec. 1642; Jonathan, 11 Feb. 1644,
a. 3 days old ; and Philip, d. young. He had join, the ch. 1 Mar. and
was adm. freem. 13 May 1640 ; and his w. join, the ch. 29 Aug. 1641 ;
he d. early in 1645, and in 1652 the Gen. Ct. interfer. in admin, of his
est. by the deacons of Boston ch. J SAMUEL, Stratford, br. of Rev.
John, perhaps did not come so early as 1634, wh. Cothren, 60, assumes,
but was aft. 1640 some yrs. at Wethersfield, there had houselot, giv. by
his f. ; was among first resid. at Stamford, and had sev. ch. b. there ; was
chos. an Assist. 1662, 3, 4, and aft. the union of the Cols, of Conn, and
N. H. 1665-7, but tho. nominat. for 1668, he fail, of the elect, and is no
more heard of, exc. in project, with others, 1672, settlem. of Woodbury.
Cothren says he m. in Eng. Sarah Mitchell, and brot. her hither ; but
this is to the last degr. improb. for he brings him in 1634, then only 19
yrs. old at most, perhaps only 18, and in the mo. country very few so
young were m. beside wh. he calls this w. sis. of Rev. Jonathan, wh.
does not seem to have had such sis. at least we kn. that Richard Mather,
a fellow-passeng. with Mitchell's f. in 1635, has no refer, to a d. then m.
on our side of the water, and f. Mitchell in his will of 1646 names ds.
only Susanna and Hannah, no Sarah ; and beyond that, our Sherman
tribe was from the E. part of Essex, while the Mitchells were of the W.
Riding of Yorksh. on the edge of Lancash. opposite sides of the king
dom, between wh. two hundred and thirty yrs. ago intercourse was very
rare. Reconciliat. of the principal fact (if it be true) may be gain, by
a reasona. conject. that the m. tho. it could hard, have occur, in Eng. was
some yrs. aft. com. of the parties hither. The dates of b. of their ch.
give further evid. as Cothren hims. furnish, them, of his error, as the
earliest is 1641, and the latest 1665, wh. is beyond the usual result of a
m. in 1634. His roll, with slight corrections, is : Samuel, b. 19 Jan.
SHERMAN. 85
1641 ; Theophilus, 28 Oct. 1643 ; Matthew, 21 Oct. 1645 ; Edmund, 4
Dec. 1647; John, 8 Feb. 1651; Sarah, 8 Feb. 1654; Nathaniel, 21
Mar. 1657 ; Benjamin, 29 Mar. 1662 ; and Daniel (wh. careful Mr. Judd
made David) 15 Apr. 1665. Some ground for support of the tradit. of
m. Avith the d. of Mitchell may appear in two of the names of these
ch. Matthew and Sarah ; but I must adhere to my conject. a. the time.
When he d. might seem as hard to settle, as his date of m. Cothren tells,
that he d. bef. Oct. 1684, but it was prob. fifteen yrs. later, at least we
kn. that div. of his est. among heirs, whose lang. implies recent dec. of
their ancest. was made Sept. 1700, and deeds by him as late as 1694
can be read. SAMUEL, Boston, s. perhaps, of Samuel of Ipswich, by w.
Naomi had Nathaniel, b. 19 Dec. 1659 ; Samuel, 3 Oct. 1661, d. soon;

Dec. 1683; Mehitable, 18 Aug. 1685; Samuel, 12 June 1687; and
Othniel, 29 Jan. 1690. Perhaps he had former w. Sarah, that d. at
Marshfield July 1680. THEOPHILUS, Stratford 1669, was br. of the
sec. Samuel of the same, and a man of distinct, d. early in 1712 ; but
Cothren gives him no w. or ch. THOMAS, Ipswich 1638. WILLIAM,
Plymouth 1G32, may have come in 1629, for to one of the name was
giv. by our Gov. and Comp. in London, liberty to bring in his kine from
Northampton in fourteen days from 26 Feb. doubtless to be emb. in the
fleet with Higginson. He m. 1639, Prudence Hill, whose f. is unkn. to
me, was of Duxbury and Marshfield 1643, Had prob. John, b. 1646, and
William ; but Winsor may have confus. f. and s. The f. d. or was bur.

SHRIMPTON, EPAPHRAS, Boston, by w. Rebecca had Samuel, bapt. 17
July 1687, at Charlestown, but why there, I see not ; and all I hear of
him, is, that he was s. of Edward of London. HENRY, Boston, br. of
Edward of Bednal Green, Co. Middlesex, had been a brazier in London,
join, our ch. 15 Sept. 1639, by w. Elinor had Eliz. bapt. 3 Oct. 1641,
a. 10 days old, wh. d. under 18 yrs. ; Samuel, 25 June 1643, a. 26 days
old; Mary, 10 Aug. 1645, a. 13 days, wh. d. I presume, 9 Man 1652,
tho. blunder, town rec. calls her Elinor, d. of H. S. and his w. Mary ;
John, 28 May 1648, a. 6 Wks. wh. I dare to adopt; Sarah, b. 1649, wh.
was not bapt. for eleven yrs.; Henry, 26 Apr. 1653, says one of the
copies of town rec. but an older one, 1654, and he, I suppose, d. young;
Mehitable, wh. d. 29 July 1657 ; Jonathan, 18 Nov. 1656, wh. d. 22 July
1657 ; Abigail, 3 Jan. 1658 ; Bethia, 30 Jan. 1659 ; Eliz. again, 10 Apr.
1660, bapt. at 5 days, with three sis. bef. ment. He m. 27 Feb. 1662,
sec. w. Mary, wid. of capt. Robert Fenn (wh. had first been wid. of
capt. Thomas Hawkins, and m. F. 26 June 1654); and d. July 1666.
His will, of 17 of that mo. pro. 4 Aug. foil. aft. provid. for his w. made
dispos. of large prop, to ch. Samuel, Sarah, Abigail, Bethia, and Eliz.
and provides for Eliz. wid. of his br. Edward of London, and the seven
ch. Jonathan, Mary, Ebenezer, Epaphras, Silas, Eliz. and Lydia, large
pt. of whose est. he held in tr. ; gave £50. to the ch. and £50., with this
curious proviso, for " leave that I may be bur. in the tomb wherein
my former w. Elinor S. was bur. otherwise I give nothing." A
better proof of his sense is a bequest of £10., "token of my love," to
Gold, Osborn, and others, of the Bapt. ch. worship, at Noddle's isl. A

copy of the will of his br. Edward, that sheds some light on our side of

ROBERT, Boston, had John, bapt, 28 May 1648, "a. six wks. old," says
the eh. rec. but tho. the ancient copy calls him " s. of our br. Robert S."
I feel compell. aft. long investigat. to say, that it seems to be a mistake,
inasmuch as there was no br. Robert S. of our ch. nor does the town rec.
give any such person. To be sure the ch. and town rec. in the orig. for
many early yrs. are both lost, and the copies are of various value ; that
of the ch. very far superior to the town copy, especially as gaps in 1647,
8, and 9 are num. Now, since the name of f. is . not seen in any time
bef. nor for a long success, of yrs. aft. if ever, my conject. is, that John,
the ch. bapt. on that day, was s. of Henry, and d. soon. That this may
not appear too hazardous a guess, I beg the student of our early manners
to obs. that Henry had brot. to bapt. his three ch. in a short time aft.
their sev. births ; but of six succeed, ch. no one was brot. up to the font
bef. the fifth day aft. b. of a seventh, and then the rec. has this strange
relat. : on 15 Apr. 1660, were bapt. ch. of our br. Henry Shrimpton,
Sarah, aged eleven yrs. ; Abigail, two yrs. ; Bethia, one yr. ; and Eliz.
at five days. The three intermed. were, I presume, d. and my excuse
for omission of such ordinance in the six cases, is, that the f. was too
much impress, with the d. of his s. John. If in opposit. to this conject.
it be suggest, that Henry had deriv. prejudice against the ceremony of
inf. bapt. the inq. natural, springs up, if his conscient. scruple restrain,
him in 1649, and 1653, and 1654, and 1656, and 1658, and 1659, why
should it have relax, in 1660 ? Still, if my disesteem of the copy in the
old engrossing hand that serves for first ch. rec. seem too. confident, I
must be excus. from abundant experience of the errors in such docum.
Our town rec. as it is call. (I mean the oldest MS. venerat. by me, as
the County Recorder's Copy from the lost transcript of the lost orig. rec.
of the town elk. of the writs) asserts falsely, that " Elinor, the d. of
Henry Shrimpton and of his w. Mary, dec. 9 Mar. 1652," on p. 128,
whereas Mary was the ch. not the w. and Elinor was the w. wh. had
three or four ch. aft. that date of d. and there was no ch. nam. Elinor,
that we hear of. J |( SAMUEL, Boston, s. of Henry, freem. 1673, got off

He was of ar. co. 1670, and its capt. 1694, one of the Counc. to Andros
1687, but not a partaker in his tyranny; one of the Counc. of Safety

But others there were, as the fam. tradit. makes two s. lost at sea ; and
fully confirm, is it by the fact, that aft. the d. of w. in the begin, of
Philip's war, and aft. m. of sec. w. he made deed of trust, 7 Nov. 1681,

were all Peaceable's ; and he d. 1690, it is thot. bee. admin, of his est. was

Aug. 1696; Sarah; Robert; Martha; Rebecca; and Ebenezer, 1707,
Y. C. 1727, whose descend, have confer, gr. honor on the State; and d.
1748. Fam. tradit. makes the first Daniel come from Holland; and the
derivat. is quite distinct from the city of Lucca, in Italy, in the early
day of the Protestant reformat, thro. Geneva, where had sett, the f. of
one Daniel. This Daniel was chos. 1575 into the Council of 200 for
that Republic. Sometimes in fam. tradit. there is a basis of truth, how

SIVERNS, JOHN, Lynn, had John, b. 22 Mar. 1684. Perhaps this
may be Severance of Salisbury.
SKATE, JOHN, Weymouth 1658, is nam. by Farmer; but I find no
such name, unless it mean the next.
SKEATH, JOHN, Boston 1674, liv. long, as from his will of 6 May

Sarah Bradshaw, Rebecca Allen, Mary, and Joanna S. beside gr.ch.

SKEETH, WILLIAM, of Charlestown, or Woburn, d. a. 1672, for his

wh. were of those two towns.
SKELLING, THOMAS, Salem 1643, had then, says Felt, a gr. of Id.
But prob. that was inadeq. inducem. to leave Gloucester where he had
liv. some yrs. and by w. Deborah had Deborah, b. 22 Aug. 1640, or
1648, rem. perhaps, to Falmouth 1651, and own. est. in Maine ; but was

Thomas and John. See Skilling. THOMAS, Falmouth, eldest s. of the
preced. says Babson, m. 1654, Mary Lewis, d. of George of the same,
had John, and Benjamin, and d. at Salem, 30 Dec. 1676. His wid. m.
Jotham Lewis; and next a. Wilkins, says Mr. Willis, and in 1732 was
of Salem 78 yrs old.
SKELTON, BENJAMIN, Salem, nam. 1639, when his s. John was bapt.
and NATHANIEL, Salem 1648, when his s. John was bapt. are in the list
of sett, but not ch. mem. Strange as it seems, no more is told of either;
and to larger 'or less credulity must be left the opin. whether one or
both were ch. of Rev. Samuel. SAMUEL, Salem, came from Co.
Lincoln, in 1629, arr. with w. and ch. three or four, in the George, 29
June, in co. with Samuel Sharpe, hav. sail. 4 May from Isle of Wight.
He was b. 1584, bred at Clare Hall, Cambr. Univ. where he had his
degr. 1611 and 1614; nam. by the Gov. and Comp. at London to be of
the Counc. to Capt. Endicot, wh. they appoint. Gov. of the Planta. as

but prob. lie never was sw. for the arrest of his assoc. the Browns, bef.
com. of the commiss. would prevent organiz. or action. But in the

might infer, that his wid. had tak. new h. Mr. Baggerly. But no such
name is found in Felt's list of ch. memb. of Salem, nor indeed does any
Skelton appear there, but the pastor. He rec. in July 1 632 gr. of four lots

wonder the Browns were driv. away, when these later comers could not
by Mr. Skelton be adm. to his communion as " not mernb. of reformed
chhs." The great master of us all would gladly have rec. these men ;
but the rigid separatists had sterner sense of duty. So extreme was
their repugn, to the formulary, wh. they had once used in their weekly
worsh. that they would not longer believe in the communion of saints.
SAMUEL, Salem, s. prob. of the preced. b. in Eng. sold Id. in S. Feb.

SKERRY, FRANCIS, Salem 1637, freem. 17 May of that yr. ; was, it is
said, aged near 84 at his d. 1692. HENRY, Salem, perhaps br. of the

89 yrs. old ; and in Felt's ch. list of 1645 is Bridget, wh. may have been

SKIDMORE, or SKIDMER, JAMES, Boston 1636, appears as agent for
John Winthrop of Conn. JOHN, perhaps of Cambridge, was fin. 1641,
for sale of strong water to Ind. THOMAS, Cambridge 1642, had, in
1636, been engag. for John Winthrop in his prepar. for plant, at Say-

Skaffe, the Col. Rec. says, was bur. at Rehoboth, 25 June 1676. I sup

SKILLING, SKILLIN, or SKILLINGS, JOHN, Falmouth 1651, may have
been s. of Thomas. His wid. rem. 1688, to Portsmouth. THOMAS,
Salem 1643, may have belong, rather to Gloucester, where he was in
1642, there, perhaps, had Thomas, b. Nov. 1643; and Abigail, wh. m.

in 1639, perhaps in 1641, as the articles in Geneal. Reg. II. 103, and III.
81, seem discord. By his will he gave half of his est. to the ch. of C.
an44ialf to Mr. Robert Ibbit of Cambridge, in Old Eng. but calls no w.
ch. or other relat. so that we may infer that he was a bach, if not, also,
that he came from Co. Cambridge. FRANCIS, was command, of the
fort at Pemaquid, May 1683, as in Geneal. Reg. XL 33. JOHN, Hart
ford 1639, had w. Mary, wh. m. 13 Nov. 1651, Owen Tudor, prob. by

foil, may be thot. the gent. wh. with Ludlow, Pynchon, and others, was
commis. in Mar. 1636 by Mass, to govern the first sett, on Conn, and
act. at Hartford 1638. See Mass. Col. Rec. I. 170, with Conn. Col.
Rec. I. 17 ; but whether he was or not, the Rev. HENRY, first min. of
Wethersfield, I cannot confidently decide. On the whole, I conclude,
since Mather puts the Wethersfield min. into his first classis (as of those,
in the actual exercise of their min. bef. they left Eng.), that this man
was only in civ. life, for he is not dignif. with the prefix Mr. and would
never seem to be looked on as cleric, in Mass., and prob. the min. of
Wethersfield came not for five, or even six, yrs. more. See Winth's. letter
of June 1636 to his s. John, Gov. of the new planta. in Hist. I. Appx. A.
60 of the Ed. 1853. He, in 1636, rem, to Springfield with Pynchon; was s.
by a former h. of that wid. Sanford wh. had m. Pynchon, and this s. had m.
his P's. d. Ann, I suppose bef. the m. of his mo. with the f. of his w. pos
sib. bef. they, any of them, came from Eng. to confound the two, if there
were not three (wh. seems improb.) Henry Smiths. I design always to
put the names in the order of their com. to our country, so that Rev.
Henry, tho. older, must follow the Springfield man. Felt has, in his
Eccles. Hist, of N. E. 253, made the min. wh. was receiv. of the ch. of
Charlestown in midsum. of 1637, one of the commission to govern the
Conn, planta. in 1636, with Ludlow, Steele, Pynchon and others, when
we may feel sure, that it was Pynchon's s. in law wh. had that honor ; as
also, that the Wethersfield min. was at the date of 1636 in his native
land, had Ann, and Mary, wh. were b. bef. his rem. the latter, bur. at S.
15 Nov. 1641 ; Martha, b. 31 July 1641 ; Mary, again, 7, bapt, 12 Mar.
1643 ; Eliz. 22, bapt. 27 Oct. 1644; Margaret, 26 Apr. 1646, d. at two
yrs.; Sarah, 6 Oct. 1647, d. soon; Margaret, again, 1 Nov. 1648; Re
becca, 1 Apr. 1650; Samuel, 23 June 1651, d. next yr. ; and Abigail,
10 Feb. 1653; was rep. 1651, and, with his min. Rev. George Moxon,
prob. in disgust at the proceed, against his f.-in-law, went home 1653.
Prob. most of the ch. went with the f. but Mary perhaps contin. here
with her uncle Pynchon, and m. 15 Apr. 1665, Richard Lord of Hartford ;
SMITH. . 115
and Ann, \vh. we may be sure, was the first b. m. 9 Nov. 1651, John Al-
lyn of Hartford, the famous Seer. Other ch. he may have had, either
bef. or aft. leav. S. but where Farmer found his Elisha, is hard to guess.
He seems to be as well entit. as the AVatertown Henry, to be thot. the
freem. of 18 May 1G31, prob. better. Since reach, the conclus. that my
Dorchester Henry is the same as he, wh. Farmer in MS. had thot. of
Watertown, and by his two lines drove me to many wks. research, I
have the gratification of ascertain, from Dr. Bond's untir. investigat.
that at Watertown was no Henry Smith at all. HENRY, Charlestown, join,
the ch. with w. Dorothy, 10 July 1637, prob. rein. soon. He may have been
passeng. in the Elizabeth, 1635, without wishing his name to appear at
the custom ho. as no min. could be suf. to emb. at least we kn. that ship
brot. Dorothy, aged 45 ; d. Mary 15, and John, 12 ; most likely he was
the Wethersfield min. Very critical caution, however, is requisite, about
the concomitants of the rev. gent, whose will, of 8 May 1648, refers,
without nam. them, to two ds. m. Of course they were b. in Eng. ' It
also names s. Peregrine, wh. may not have been b. on this side of the
water, certain, was older than Samuel, but whether s. of the w. Dorothy,
or not, is uncert. Of that Dorothy, the w. we may be very sure, that
she was his sec. w. not mo. of Mary, or John, fellow passeng. with her.
For the elder ds. we are not sure of the h.'s, unless of Rebecca we judge
her w. of Samuel Smith of New London. See Caulkin's Hist, of N. L.
151. She was divorc. for his desertion, and m. 1669, Nathaniel Bow
man. At least the age of this w. at Charlestown, if she be the passeng.
in the Elizabeth, is very much overrat. perhaps fifteen yrs. if not more ;
for bef. his rem. to W. he had Dorothy, b. 1636, or 7 ; and at W. had
Samuel, 27 Jan. 1639 ; Joanna, 25 Dec. 1641; Noah, 25 Feb. 1644, d.
young; and Eliz. perhaps posthum. 25 Aug. 1648. The min. of W.
had a long controv. with a part of his people, whereby the peace of that
whole commonwealth was disturb. See Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 97 and
98. It seems only to have terminat. by his d. 1648. In his will, Ib. 502,
he speaks of his large fam. ment. only s. Samuel, Perigrine, wh. was d.

had serv. in the Netherlands in that rank, was, perhaps, the freem. of 4
Mar. 1633, or of 7 Dec. 1636. Mr. Clap thinks he was past mid.
age, when he came, and my inq. are unsatisf. a. him. JOHN, Maine
1C40, one of the gr. jury at the first Gen. Court of Sir Ferdinando
Gorges, in that yr. " sw. to inq. for our Sovereign Lord the K. and the
Lord of this Province." Perhaps he was of Kittery, aft. as we kn. he
was, in 1635, of Saco. § t. JOHN, Providence, one of the hundred first
purch. may have been of Salem 1631 or 2, one of the friends of Roger
Williams, wh. calls him a merch. perhaps, but not very likely the freem.
of 4 Mar. 1633, and banish, at the Court Sept. 1635, for "divers danger
ous opin. wh. he holdeth and hath divulg." His name is always Smyth,
and he bee. one of the heads of the Col. of R. I. aft. rem. to Warwick,
the presid. of R. I. chos. to succeed Williams in 1649. In the new chart,
of the k. July 1663, he is nam. of the counc. but d. bef. its arr. leav. wid.

But betw. other Johns of the neighb. my power of discrimin. fails. In
Providence alone were four Johns among the first hundred purch.
One JOHN, if not two, was of Newport, in 1640. JOHN, Watertown
1631, perhaps the freem. of 25 May 1636 (whose w. Isabel d. or was
bur. 12 July 1639, aged 60, as Dr. Bond says), may have been f. of
John, Thomas, and Francis, sometimes nam. of W. perhaps of others,
but all b. in Eng. and, as. Bond thinks, rem. to Lancaster, and d.
there, yet I think it more prob. that it was a younger man. JOHN,
Taunton, one of the first purch. 1637. JOHN, Plymouth 1643, then call,
senr. was one of the first sett, at Eastham ; but we ask in vain as to his
fam. or time of d. and are left to infer that, tho. he was sen. in the list of
those able to bear arms, John jun. was not his s. as he did not accomp.
the sen. to Eastham, and it may equally be doubt, whether he was f. of
SMITH. 119
either the sec. or third John of Eastham, or of Samuel of the same.

Medford 1638. JOHN, Newport 1639, may have cont. there and be
found on their list of freem. 1655 ; but may be the one at Providence,
disting. as the miller, wh. had Joseph, and engag. his alleg. June 1668

the same yr. JOHN, Dorchester, came in 1635 with w. and d. Mary (in
the James of Bristol), the ch. brot. from Warrington, Lancash. on a horse
in a pannier, balanc. by young Nathaniel, s. of Rev. Richard Mather,
then five yrs. old, as a decent tradit. relates ; and in that voyage partook

JOHN, Saco, freem. 1653, had been there from 1636, and we would

these Salem Johns, at the ord. of Rev. John Higginson, in 1660, rais. a

Boston, as quakers. See Hutch. I. 203.-% rfoHNjTforchester, had James,

June 1683, she then being w. of Ellis Wood as the ch. rec. tells. But
very curious rec. of bapt. is found few mos. preced. as follows : " The
childr. of Miriam, the w. of Ellis Smith, were bapt. 19 Nov. 1682, viz.
Ann, Miriam, Sarah, and David." Who was f. of these ch. is on the face
of the rec. doubtful. No such man as Ellis Smith can be heard of, and
easy eno. might the scribe mistake this name for Wood, if we may as
sume that the w. of Wood was bring, up to the font offspring of her
former h. John Smith, wh. d. 1682. JOHN, New London 1658, call.

1675 ; and, perhaps, but not prob. Samuel, whose day of b. as giv. by
Bond, 10 Mar. 1700, excites suspic. of error. JOHN, Eastham, m. 24

SOUTH, JOHN, Dorchester, if the name, spell. Sougth in the ret. of d.
1635, may thus be writ. Yet no such name is heard of at D. exc. in
this list of d. and it may be he was only trans. WILLIAM, Mass, sen-
tenc. by Court of Assist. 4 Sept. 1 638, and by the Gen. Ct. few days aft.
to be banish, on pain of d. but the rec. names not the offence.
SOUTHCOATE, or SouTHCOT, RICHARD, Dorchester 1630, came in

18 May foil, was adm. under designat. of Capt. If so, had leave 26
July next to go to Eng. promis. to return with conven. speed ; but came
not. Yet he may have been short time at Piscataqua in 1639. THOMAS,
Dorchester, prob. br. of the preced. an orig. patentee under the Great
Plymouth Comp. but not ment. in royal chart, came perhaps in the
Mary and John, and req. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and as he is
never ment. again, it is believ. that he went home that autumn.

1696, d. young; Hannah, 16 Sept. 1698 ; Enoch, again, 26 Apr. 1700;
and John, b. and d. 1703. No gain has follow, the search for this man's
origin ; and perhaps one of the very few instances of emigrat. from
Eng. to our country, later than 1670, may be this of Southwell. More
than the proportion of ninety-five in the hundr. of the populat. of N. E.
in 1775, had descend. I think, from the sett. wh. came at least 25 yrs.
bef. that earlier date.
SOUTHWICK, LAWRENCE, Salem 1639, with. w. Cassandra join, the
ch. and was adm. freem. 6 Sept. of that yr. I presume, and on 6 Dec.
foil, had John, Josiah, Daniel, and Provided bapt. at once. Other ch.
were Mary, w. of Henry Trask, and Deborah. He was, I suppose, a
glass blower, had gr. of Id. for house lot of two acres ; but in the dark
days of delus. against the quakers, 1658 and 1659, the whole fam. suffer.
much, fines and imprison, fell on all, and the d. Clarissa was subj. to gr.
severity. When the fines of Daniel and Provided were unpaid, the
tender-hearted Gen. Court, with intent to magnify the glory of God,
order, them to be sold for slaves to any Christians in Virg. or Barbados.
We are permit, to rejoice, that the sentence was not enforc. and the f.
with his flock found refuge at Shelter isl. near the East end of L. I.
where in peace he made his will of 10 July 1659, allow, in 1660 ; names
the ch. Daniel, Provided, John, Josiah, and ds. Mary, w. of Henry
SOUTHWORTH. 143
Trask, and Deborah ; and his w. and hims. d. within three days of ea.
other, it is said. See Felt, II. 580-2, and Col. Rec. IV. part first, pp.
349, 366, 7, and 410. Much as they might love their native Id. the dan
ger from their opin. requir. banishm. it seem, with a proviso, that they
should suffer death for return.

of our Gov. Bradford, liv. on the E. side ; and of a line, however
humble, long estab. there, so would not prob. draw his blood from
them. Much benefit to thousands of inquirers on our side of the ocean
may be deriv. from wise use of a few words in the note of Mr. Hun
ter, on pp. 6 and 7 of "The founders of New Plymouth," Ed. 1854:
" mere possess, of a surname wh. coincides with that of an Eng. fam. is
no proof of connex. with that fam. Claims of alliance found, on this
basis are not the legitimate offspring of laborious genealog. inquiry, but
of self-love and the desire to found a reputa. for ancestorial honor
where no such honor is really due." Well is the topic explain, in
further remarks, found, on experience of more than one gross case of
indecent pretension.

the seventh s. of John and Susanna Spencer, was b. in E. G. 22 July
1679, a. 5 o'clock in the morn, and was the first Eng. ch. b." there. But
he had liv. in some part of the Col. a dozen yrs. bef. for he was freem.
1668, yet since no trace of him is earlier seen, or any report of progenit.
my conject. is that he is one of the few that came over aft. the restorat.
of Charles II. and had w. and some ch. soon aft. Perhaps his w. was
d. of John Greene the sec. of Warwick. He had sec. w. and d. 1684,

Michael as an inhab. of Hartford, on Mill str. 1645 ; but I conject. that
his eye mistook Mr. for this name. NATHANIEL, Haddam, s. of Jared,

Thomas, beside other gr. ch. Eliz. and John Osborn Jr. and perhaps ch. of
John Osborn of Boston, and some others. WILLIAM, Plymouth 1643,
is by fam. tradit. said to have come from Colchester, Co. Essex, had in
Mar. 1637 been serv. or apprent. to John Combe, and aft. d. of C. was
by the Ct. in 1645 made guardn. of the childr. of C. By w. Eliz. wh.

his w. d. Feb. 1713. In his will of 21 July 1716, pro. 12 Oct. 1719, in
our rec. XXI. 245 are nam. Anthony with Anthony his s. and other s.
Richard, James, Samuel, Matthew, Josiah, and Jeremiah, beside d. Sarah
Bates, w. of Caleb. He d. 3 Sept. 1719. His house was burn. 20 Apr.
1676 by the Ind. in Philip's war. Of this branch, of Anthony, thro.
Jeremiah, the seventh s. is the celebr. poet, Charles, descend. EDWARD,
Maiden, youngest s. of the first John m. 24 Nov. 1693, Dorothy, d. of
Job Lane of the same, had William, b. 4 Sept. 1695 ; Ann, 20 Mar.
1697; Dorothy, 9 Sept. 1698; and d. 13 Apr. 1715. FRANCIS, Ply
mouth, came with w. and a d. in the Ann 1623, but the names, Ann, and
Mercy, are all that are giv. in 1627, at the div. of cattle, so that it is
infer, that he left other ch. abroad, perhaps had John, or more b. here ;
and at P. was tax. 1633 and 4, but aft. was of Duxbury. He was liv.
in 1666, as Winsor says, and he names the ch. John, Ann, Mary, and
Mercy. This last, he tells, m. 9 Nov. 1637, William Tubbs ; and one
of the others m. Robert Lawrence ; but I kn. no such man, and casually
turn, (three yrs. aft. writ, this maledict.) from p. 317 to 275, of Winsor,
obs. that he calls him William. He was one of the orig. purch. of Dart
mouth. * JOHN, Maiden, eldest s. of Ralph, b. in Eng. freem. 1653, m.
2 May 1651, Lydia, d. of Edward Goffe of Cambridge, brot. from Eng.
had John, b. 9 Mar. 1651; Lydia; Jonathan, b. Oct. 1656; Samuel,
21 Feb. 1659; and Mary, 13 Apr. 1661; Phineas, Feb. 1666; Ed
ward; Deborah, 21 Sept. 1670; Sarah, Feb. 1673; and d. 16 Dec.
1703. The wid. d. 11 Dec. 1715. A will of his br. Richard, wh.
outliv. him, in 1703, gives to five s. of this John, wh. was rep. 1689, 90,
and 1. JOHN, Duxbury, only s. of Francis, liv. first at Marshfield, but
d. in D. ; m. 1655, Ruth, d. of William Bassett, had John; William;
Samuel; Ruth, b. 12 Feb. 1659; Eliz.; Desire; and Dorcas ; was k.
in Philip's war, 26 Mar. 1676, under Pierce, at the fierce fight of Paw-
tucket. JOHN, Plymouth and Duxbury, in Hutch. I. 354 call, one of
the counc. to Sir Edmund Andros, was perhaps s. of William, and if this
be true, he m. 13 Dec. 1666, Eliz. Holbrook, and Hosea S. in his
Geneal. tells no more, but that he sold in 1682 his est. at Hinghara, and d.
154 S P R A G U E .
at Mendon 1690. Yet there is, in my opin. very slight reason for think,
the s. of William of Hingham to be the counsellor. Judge Mitchell
refers to the will of the Hingham man, of 1 683, as it ment. his ch. John,
William, Ebenezer, Eliz., Hannah, Milicent, and Persis. JOHN, Mai
den, eldest s. of John of the same, by w. Eliz. had John, b. 28 July
1685; Abiah, 21 Aug. 1687; Mary, 27 Nov. 1689; was freem. 1690;
and he d. June 1692. JONATHAN, Weymouth, s. of William of Hing
ham, by w. Eliz. had Eliz. b. 21 July 1670 ; rem. to R. I. by fam. tradit.
and may be the same, wh. at Providence had preach, in the early part of
18th centu. was town elk. in 1722, and perhaps d. at Smithfield, Jan.
1741, aged 92. JONATHAN, Maiden, s. of the first John of the same, by
w. Mary had Richard, b. 28 June 1686 ; John, 7 May 1689 ; Joseph, 24
Oct. 1691; Nathan, 2 Feb. 1694; Hannah, and Mary, tw. 25 May
1696 ; David, 15 Aug. 1698 ; and was freem. 1690. PHINEAS, Maiden,
youngest s. of Ralph, freem. 1690, m. 11 Dec. 1661, Mary Carrington,
perhaps d. of Edward, wh. brot. him no ch. and d. 7 Dec. 1667 ; but by
sec. w. m. 5 Jan. 1670, Sarah Hasey, perhaps d. of William, had
Phineas, b. 27 Dec. foil. William, 21 Nov. 1672; Ralph, Nov. 1674;
Sarah, 23 Apr. 1686; Joanna, 17 Apr. 1688; and Abigail, 2 Mar.
1690. But my suspicion is strong, that the three last belong to the other
man of the same name in that town. He took the o. of fidel. 15 Dec.
1674, and was rep. 1689 and 90. PHINEAS, Maiden, prob. s. of the first
John, by w. Eliz. had Eliz. b. 11 Oct. 1691 ; Mary, 15 Oct. 1693 ; Tab-
itha, 19 Oct. 1696; and I find nothing more of him. * || RALPH,
Charlestown 1629, came prob. with w. Joan, and s. John and Richard,
that yr. in the fleet with Higginson, certain, with brs. Richard, and prob.
William. They were s. of Edward prob. of Upway in Devonshire.
Sometimes it has been thot. that these gent, were passeng. in 1 628, with
Endicott, but to me it seems more likely that, as they came, paying their
own charges, they were in the fleet of 1629. With Endicott, in the
Abigail, beside his fam. and serv. there were not, I suppose, over twenty,
includ. men, women, and ch. and most of them sent by the adventurers
in London, as the first sh. for the planta. would naturally be occup. in
transport, of persons wh. they should wholly control. The much larger
exped. aft. gr. of the chart, in 1629 had, also, wider views of policy, and
in obedience to the direct, of the officers of the comp. at home the
Spragues, wh. came at their own charge, were sent by Endicott to take
up the lands at C. but we kn. that the compiler of the Charlestown rec.
threw back his narra. of early transact, by one yr. mak. Winth. and the
gr. body of our early sett, come in 1629. As the Spragues came one
yr. bef. Winth. Mr. Green, the compiler of that MS. compliment, by
Prince and most of us as the first rec. of C. natural, gave them the
SPRAGUE. 155
date 1628, and on the same premises our confidence reposes, that the true
yr. was 1629. He had w. Joan, and the Nos. of hims. and her on our ch.
list are 102 and 3. He had Samuel, bapt. 3 June 1632, but he may
have been b. many mos. for this was the sixth ch. nam. in our list, and
the rite had not been perform, since Nov. 1 630, by reason of the abs. of
Wilson the pastor, wh. came back from Eng. the wk. bef. this bapt. He
and Ms w. were of the 33, wh. had desir. dismiss, from the congr. of Boston
"to enter into a new ch. body -at C." and were dismiss. 14 Oct. 1632 ;
and his d. Mary was bapt. 14 Sept. 1634; s. Phineas, 31 July 1637.
He had sprung, I imagine, from Dorsetsh. and own. Ids. in Upway of
that Co. as by let. of 25 Mar. 1651 from his f.-in-law, John Corbin, at
that parish, appears. On 19 Oct. 1630 he req. adm. and 18 May foil,
was sw. as freem. made constable at the Gen. Ct. Oct. 1630, serg. lieut.
and capt. in regular success, rep. May 1635, being the third time of such
an assemb. and very freq. aft. ; ar. co. 1639 ; but I believe that in later
days he liv. on Mistick side, or Maiden, for his name is in a commiss. to
sett, bounds there, and he d. Nov. 1650, and his s. Jonathan next mo.
and the name of his wid. is the sec. on the women's memo, to the Gen.
Ct. 1651 in favor of Matthews; and she may have m. eleven yrs. later
Edward Converse of Woburn. Mary, his d. in. Daniel Edmunds, oft.
writ. Edmands, and in the will of her br. Capt. Richard has good provis.
* || RICHARD, Charlestown, came, no doubt, with the preced. wh. was
elder br. bring, w. Mary, and on the Boston list of ch. mem. stands bef.
his br. being No. 79, adm. freem. 18 May 1631, was with w. dismiss.
Oct. 1632, to form new ch. at C. in 1637 took side with Wheelwright,
and sign, the remonstr. against the proceed, of the Ct. but on express,
his regret, the signa. was eras. ; was of ar. co. 1639, capt. rep. 1659 and
sev. yrs. more, prob. had no. ch. and d. 25 Nov. 1668, aged 63. His
will of 15 Sept. preced. names w. Mary, Richard, John, Samuel, and
Phineas, s. of his br. Ralph, his br. William of Hingham, and gave to
Harv. Coll. 30 ewes with their lambs. By the will of his wid. 12 Nov.
1671, pro. 16 June 1674, we gain a fine fam. crop. It names kinsmen,
lieut. John, Samuel, and Phineas Sprague ; kinsman Nathaniel Rand,
and his s. Nathaniel ; kinsman, Lawrence Dowse and his two ds. Eliz.
and Mary ; childr. of Thomas Rand, and Lawrence Dowse ; Jonathan,
s. of Daniel Edmands ; br. William Sprague, and his childr. sis. Alice
Rand ; kinsmen Thomas Rand, Nathaniel Rand, Lawrence Dowse,
Abraham Newell, Nathaniel Brewer, and Thomas Lord ; Mary Dowse,
d. of Lawrence ; made Excors. Nathaniel Rand, and lieut. John Sprague.
His inv. summed up well. * || RICHARD, Charlestown, s. of Ralph, b.

had no ch. by either w. as none is heard of. He was ar. co. 1681, capt.

Possib. it was ano. of the same bapt. name ; and he may have gone

Philip, wh. went from our country, and organiz. that dissent, form at
Wrentham, in Co. SufFk. 1650. JOHN, Lynn or Marblehead 1641,

STAFFORD, JOSEPH, Warwick, s. prob. youngest, of Thomas, m.
Sarah, fourth d. of Eandall Houlden, had three s. and four ds. certain,
for the wills of hims. and of his w. give the names of Stukely, Joseph,
and John, beside ds. Francis Congdon, Eliz. Case, Margaret Place,
and Sarah Smith. J * SAMUEL, Warwick, s. of Thomas of the same,
m. Mercy, d. of Stukely Westcott ; had, as in Friend's rec. at Newport
is seen, Stukely, b. 7 Nov. 1661 ; Amos, 8 Nov. 1665 ; Mercy, 8 July
1668 ; Sarah, 18 Apr. 1671 ; and Samuel, 19 Nov. 1673 ; but other ch.
he had, as nam. in his will, where the first, third, and fifth of that rec.
are not seen, leav. us the right of conject. that those were d. bef. him.
Substitutes for them appear in Thomas, the youngest, Patience, w. of
Howland, Freelove, w. of Tillinghast, and Eliz. w. of Devotion. Amos
is call, the eldest s. and Sarah, eldest d. nam. Scranton. Gr. ch. too, are
found, Mercy Thurbar, and Mary Stafford, claim, the testator's regard.
He was oft. rep. in 1674 was chos. an Assist, and d. 20 Mar. 1718, aged
82. THOMAS, Newport or Portsmouth 1638, said to have been b. 1605,
and to have come to Plymouth 1626, and to have built there the first
mill for grind, corn by water, but this seems very loose rep. and the Col.
rec. that refer to the first mill aft. June 1635, do not ment. him. He
is found at Warwick 1652, among the freem. there 1655, rem. I presume
to Conn, whose Gen. Ct. gr. him, 1674, fifty acres; but he had been at
New London as early as 1662, and was at W. to end his days 1677.
He made his will 4 Nov. 1677, and d. soon aft. had Sarah, wh. m. 13
July 1667, and Deborah, wh. m. 9 June 1670, both to Amos Westcott ;
Samuel ; and Joseph. His will names w. Eliz. eldest s. Thomas, and d.
Hannah, w. of Luke Bromley, beside the others. Claim was assert, by
him to be " of the blood of the Stafford," but of wh. Stafford is less clear,
and prob. unimport. tho. he perhaps had a coat of arms. THOMAS,
Warwick, s. of the preced. m. 28 Dec. 1671, Jane Dodge, had Thomas,
and William, but no dates are told, either of their or his own b. nor can
the f. of w. be trac.
STAGPOLE, JAMES, Dover, had a gr. as Mr. Quint tells, 1694, but he
says that he was b. 1 653, meaning, I suppose, in Eng. Possib. this
name has become Stackpole.
STAINES, RICHARD, Boston 1654, sailmaker, had w. Joice, and ch.
Sarah, b. 16 Nov. 1655; Thomas, 16 Aug. 1658; Richard, 3 Dec.
1660; Rebecca, 26 Dec. 1662 ; and Ann, 29 Jan. 1664 ; for wh. in his

Martha, bapt. 11 Mar. 1649 ; and d. 27 Sept. 1652. His wid. was bur.

unsound is the derivat. of that more disting. Presid. Kirkland of
Harv. Univ. from the same Mercy (as told in many places), for his
gr.mo. was Sarah, d. of Ruth, first w. of the said Ralph, not of the sec.

Mayflower, was b. in Lancashire, being a cadet, it was said, of the old
house -of Standish, long estab. with good landed possess, at Duxbury, a
town of the parish of Standish in that Co. close to Wigan, 9 ms. from
Bolton, and a. 20 ms. N. E. of Liverpool. He had been at Leyden
some yrs. bef. the emb. 1620, but we are ign. whether he had ch. at that
time, tho. certain that he brot. nobody, beside w. Rose, wh. d. 29 Jan.
one mo. aft. the land. His next w. Barbara, came in the Ann 1623, and
was prob. the mo. of some that were d. and of all his ch. as nam. in his
will of 7 Mar. 1656, Alexander, Miles, Josiah, and Charles, beside d.
Lora. Of these last two, we kn. nothing, and if indulg. in conject. we
might assume only, that both were old eno. to have been notic. in the
ensuing days. He was constant, engag. in public serv. and for 19 yrs.
was an assist, and had a mission to London in 1625, where he could
effect little on acco. of the raging of the plague, and early in the spring
foil, he came back. Of his character, wh. partook, in no small degree,
of the ancient heroic, Belknap in Americ. Biog. furnishes excellent
illustr. and just analysis. He d. 3 Oct. 1656. A copy of his will and

perhaps of ar. co. 1640; but I think a few days aft. ano. THOMAS of
more consequence, br. of the first John and Timothy, is found on the
rec. of London custom ho. aged 16, as Mr. Drake cop. the fig. in Geneal.
Reg. XIV. 307, precisely like mine in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 257 ;
and the spell, of the surname is Stansley, as shown in the Index of that
series of the Mass. Hist. Coll. but in the Index of Geneal. Reg. vol. it is
alter, to Stanley, and so justifies the construct. I had many yrs. since giv.

STANTON, DANIEL, Stonington, s. of the first Thomas, may first have
liv. at Westerly 1669, by w. Eliz. had, as the rec. of Friends at Newport
shows, Eliz. b. 20 June 1676; Martha, 3 June 1678; Sarah, 27 Feb.

Thomas the first, was wish, by the Conn, governm. to be educ. for an Ind.

at S. 1670-9, prob. had s. of the same name, as he was call. sen. a capt. in
Philip's war, and much employ, in every thing relat. to the Ind. By w.
Hannah he had John, b. 22 May 1665 ; Joseph, 22 Jan. 1668 ; Thomas,

Benjamin; Mary, 4 June 1668 ; and Hannah, 7 Nov. 1670, as in the

10 Sept. 1672; Joseph; John, 22 Apr. 1674; and Content, 20 Dec.
1675 ; wh. may all have been d. when the will was made. He was rep.
1690; and d. 3 Oct. 1713, at the age of 72. JOSEPH, Stonington,
younger br. of the preced. was yet old eno. to be propound, for freem.
1669, may be, tho. not prob. that s.-in-law of William Mead of Roxbury,
in whose will of 1683 he is nam. "tho. undutiful," for we can hardly
doubt, that our Stonington man had some yrs. bef. m. Hannah Lord, or
even third w. a Prentice. But no ch. is giv. him. ROBERT, Newport,
adm. an inhab. early in 1639, on the freem.'s list 1655, by w. Avis had
John b. Aug. 1645. He was perhaps br. of the elder Thomas, yet we
must not be too confident, for Farmer ment. a ROBERT of Dorchester
wh. as I find had Thomas, and whose d. Prudence was b. 14 June 1659;
but he was of town's poor 1689. ROBERT, s. of the first Thomas his
youngest but one, the ch. mem. of 1677, was that youthful soldier, 1676,
to wh. the Ind. capt. prince Nanunteno made reproachf. ansr. as Hub-
bard tells. He d. 25 Oct. 1724, aged 70, had Robert, b. 7 Dec. 1689,

Borrodel, d. of Capt. George Denison, had Samuel, b. 16 June 1683;
Daniel, 4 Nov. 1685; and Ann, 2 July 1688. * THOMAS, Stonington,
came from Virginia, whither, in 1635, lie had gone from London, at the
age of 20, was one of the orig. proprs. of Hartford, and there resid.

STANYAN, STANNYAN, STANIAN, or STANION, ANTHONY, Boston, had
been of Exeter, by w. Mary, says our town rec. had John, b. 16, bapt.
24 July 1642, our ch. rec. show, that he was mem. of the ch. of E. and

Pickering jr. and perhaps more there or at Hampton, where he was in
1654, m. sec. w. 1 Jan. 1656, Ann, wid. of William Partridge of Salis
bury, and took the o. of alleg. 1678. In his MS. Farmer says he was
freem. 1644, wh. does not mean of Mass, but of E. where he was town
elk. 1647, and rep. of H. in 1654. JOHN, Hampton, s. of the preced.

STAPLES, or STAPLE, ABRAHAM, Weymouth, m. 17 Sept. 1660, Mary,
d. of Robert Randall of the same, rem. soon aft. and prob. was one of the
first sett, of Mendon 1663. His wid. is nam. in the will of her f. 27 Mar.
1691. ABRAHAM, Dorchester 1658, rem. to Weymouth 1660, thence to
Mendon, was freem. 1673, by w. Hannah had Ephraim, b. 2 Sept. 1678 ;
and Mary, 8 Feb. 1681 ; by w. Mary had Benjamin, 27 Dec. 1682 ; and
Hannah, 13 May 1686; but by a third w. Mehitable, perhaps, he had
Mehitable, 19 Dec. 1689, d. soon ; Mehitable, again, 20 May 1692 ; Isaac,
10 June 1699 ; Abraham, 12 Apr. 1702, and Abraham, again, 3 Apr.
1706. If it be object, that these three ws. hav. ch. seem too much for
one man's felicity, conject. may be indulg. that the h. of the last w. may
have been s. of the former Abraham. EDWARD, Braintree, early, says
Farmer. JEFFREY, Weymouth, had Martha, wh. was bur. 17 Feb. 1640.
JOHN, Weymouth, freem. 1648, had Rebecca, b. 27 Nov. 1639, and Joseph,
19 Feb. 1642. Farmer names, also, Increase, of wh. no other report is
found. But prob. he had, also, John; and d. in 1658, or bef. I guess
the name of his w. was Margery, for a deed of two parcels of Id. in W.
10 Jan. 1659 is found in our Vol. III. of the registr. convey, to James
Priest of W. by Margery Staples, wid. of W. JOHN, Weymouth,
STAR. 169
prob. s. of the preced. by w. Sarah had John, b. 3 Nov. 1672; and

W. from Braintree, where one John d. 30 Aug. 1692, and ano. John d.
5 Nov. 1700. JOSEPH, Taunton, prob. s. of John the first of Wey-

26 Jan. 1678; Joseph, 12 Mar. 1680; Hannah, 17 May 1682; and
Nathaniel, 22 Mar. 1685. SAMUEL, Braintree, m. 30 Aug. 1652,
Mary Coles, had Mary, b. 24 Sept. 1655 ; Rachel, 31 Oct. 1657 ; and
Sarah, 10 July 1660. THOMAS, Fairfield 1645, is on freem.'s list 1669.
He had by w. Mary, Thomas ; Mary, wh. m. Josiah Harvey ; ano. d.
m. John Beach ; Mehitable ; and John ; but the order of success, is not
kn. He d. bef. 1688 ; was a man of import, and spirit eno. to prosecute
Dept. Gov. Ludlow, not long bef. his rem. to Virg. for defam. in report,
that the w. of S. was a witch. The trial for satisfact. of both parties
was in the neighb. Col. of New Haven, where the Court wisely held,
" that there was no proof that goodvv. S. was a witch," mulct. L. to
pay £10 to the h. for repar. of his w's. name, and £5 for his trouble
and cost. Happily in a later day the New Haven Col. pass, unharm.
by the doleful delus. spread in Mass, by rampant vanity and insane
apprehension. Four of this name had, in 1834, been gr. at Yale, and
three at some other N. E. coll. says Farmer.
STAPLETON, SAMUEL, Newport, came from London, hav. m. Mary
White of Newport Pagnel, Co. Bucks, and here had Mary, b. 7 Feb.
1679; Ann, 20 Jan. 1680; Mary, and Eliz. tw. 7 June 1681; and
Samuel, 28 Sept. 1682.

FORT, Cambridge, surgeon, or physician, of Ashford in Co. Kent, came

Duxbury 1638, or by dif. rep. 1642, thence to Boston aft. 1643, and his

apiece, as they come to 18 yrs. of age, as also to the four youngest of

debts in 0. E. and £50 out of his rents in Ashford, or as he spelt it,
Eshitisford, to s. Comfort, and his heirs, the ho. and Id. at Ashford ; and
to d. Eliz. the Id. on wh. her present dvvel. ho. is built, from the hi. way
back to the mill pond, and to his d.-in-law, wid. of Thomas. Of this will
Mr. Trask has pub. much larger abstr. than mine, in Geneal. Reg. IX.

Eng. where he was b. a. 1 624, educ. at Harv. Coll. where he took his
A. B. 1647, in the Catal. call. Consolantius, is one of the five fellows
nam. in the Chart, of H. C. in 1650, and soon went home, and was
benefic. at Carlisle, Co. Cumberland, and from that liv. eject, by the
Act of Uniform. 1662, retn. to a preach, station at Lewes, Co. Sussex,
where he d. says Calamy, 1711. COMFORT, Middletown, s. of Thomas
of Charlestown, m. Rachel Harris, had Comfort, b. 1670 ; Mary, 1672 ;
Hannah, 24 Mar. 1674; Joseph, 1676; Benjamin, 1679; Rachel,
1681; Thomas, 1684; and Daniel, 1689; Hinman, 239, mak. his wid.
Mary, when he d. 18 Oct. 1693. But I judge, that he was first of Bos
ton, here by w. Mary, prob. d. of Joseph Weld, as more exactly our
rec. show, bef. his rem. had Comfort, b. 15. Nov. 1666 ; Joseph, 7 Mar.
1668, perhaps d. soon; Mary, 14 Mar. 1669, d. soon; and Mary, again,
18 Jan. 1672. Of course this Comfort of Boston might be thot. a
differ, man from him of M. ; yet he could hardly be that Comfort, the
gr. of Harv. But he may, in spite of Hinman, well be the Middletown
man. COMFORT, Dedham, prob. s. of John of Boston, m. Mary, d. of
the sec. Simon Stone of Watertown, had a ch. bapt. 20 Feb. 1 687 ;
Lydia, 7 June 1688; and Hannah, 6 July 1690; all at Watertown, as
Bond, in Hist. 585, correct, on p. 951, exhibits. ELEAZER, Boston
1664, cooper, s. of the sec. John, by w. Martha had Abigail, b. 26 Nov.
1681; Joseph, 26 Aug. 1687; and Benjamin, 7 Mar. 1692. Of the
earlier w. and a d. that Winsor names, I find no trace. JOHN, Boston,
s. of the first Comfort, prob. b. in Eng. had, says Winsor, been at Dux-
bury 1643, and Bridgewater 1645, by w. Martha had Comfort, b. 4 Feb.
1662; John, 7 Dec. 1664; Comfort, again, 15 Nov. 1666; and Benja

JOHN, of Boston, a housewright, d. in the winter of 1703-4, and admin,
of his small est. was in Jan. 1704 giv. to his s. Eleazer, and I kn. no

est, had, says Hinman, Benjamin and Comfort. ROBERT, Salem, m. a
d. of the first Richard Hollingsworth, was a sea capt. ROBERT, wh.
was k. by the Ind. in Philip's war, may have been s. of William of
Lynn, and his inv. was pro. at Essex prob. Ct. on 24 June 1679.
SAMUEL, New London 1663, m. 25 Dec. 1664, Hannah, d. of Jonathan

STARBUCK. 171
Comfort, bapt. Aug. 1671; Jonathan, 1674; and Benjamin, 1679.
Miss Caulkins, with good reason, thinks him eldest s. of Thomas, and
that he d. early in 1688, for his wid. execut. a deed 2 Feb. of that yr.
He prob. is that kinsman, to wh. his gr.f. gave the " Book of Martyrs."
His s. Thomas, Jonathan, and Benjamin contin. the name at N. L. and
Norwich. The progeny of Jonathan have been not. for longev.
THOMAS, Boston, younger br. of the first Comfort, a surgeon, had come
prob. soon aft. or even with him, from Canterbury, Co. Kent, and brot.
w. Susan, and one ch. serv. as our Col. rec. shows, in the Pequot war,
1637, and d. perhaps 1640, for in Mar. 1641, his w. Susan had gr. of
admin, by our Gen. Ct. THOMAS, Duxbury 1639, s. of the first Com
fort, b. in Eng. had serv. in the Pequot war, and rem. early from D.
and liv. at Scituate, where his s. Comfort was b. in 1644, and Eliz. in
1646; but rem. again to Yarmouth, where he had former, been, for he
was there fin. with others, as a scoffer at religion [Felt, Eccles. Hist. I.
496], and there had Benjamin, 6 Feb. 1648; and Jehosaphat, 12 Jan.
1650. By his profess, it was diffic. to live in so sm. towns, and he
rem. to Charlestown, there was elk. of the writs 1654, in wh. yr. his d.
Constant d. and William was b. wh. d. 13 Dec. 1657 ; Josiah had been
1 Sept. bef. that, by w. Rachel, as the rec. of C. tells ; and he was a
householder, with small income, 1658, and d. in this yr. 26 Oct. leav.
w. Rachel. Neither he nor his w. was mem. of the ch. Winsor says
right, that he d. bef. his f. while Thacher, whose Med. Biog. has many
similar errors, extends his life to 1670. Gr. of 400 acres to his desolate

Under date of 3 Nov. 1685, in his Diary, Sewall notes, that one S. of

Eng. rep. 1689 and 90, m. 18 Feb. 1654, Julian, or Susan, d. of Richard
Swan of Rowley, had four ch. of wh. I see the name of Samuel only,

Prudence Gage, wid. of Benjamin, and d. of Thomas Leaver, town elk.

eldest s. of the preced. was a man of good serv. as selectman, had w.
Mary, and it is said, twelve ch. of wh. I see not the names, exc. that the

bapt. that yr. ; Richard, 5 June 1709 ; Abraham and Jonathan, perhaps
tw. 21 Jan. 1711 ; and Dorothy, 6 Apr. 1712. THOMAS, Newbury, s.

Amos; and he d. 25 Jan. 1665. But the order of success, is uncert.
and perhaps he had other ch. than Farmer could tell. Faith m. 10
June 1674, at Bradford, Samuel Gage, and an Eliz. S. m. 21 July 1680,

STILEMAN, or STYLEMAN, ELIAS, Salem, an early sett, even, as Felt
suggests, may have come in the fleet with Higginson, 1629, prob. brot.
s. Elias, but of his w. Judith we hear no more; freem. 3 July 1632,
licens. to keep an ordinary in 1635, when he was constable, gave up
prob. that employm. in 1653, and was made elk. of the Court for the
Co. and d. 1662. His inv. was tak. 7 Nov. of that yr. l*\\ ELIAS,
Salem, perhaps s. of the preced. b. a. 1617, adm. of the ch. 18 Aug.
1G39, and freem. 18 May 1642, had Elias, bapt. 15 Mar. 1640; and
Eliz. wh. m. a. 1687, John Jordan; was of ar. co. 1645, rem. perhaps
not bef. 1663 to Portsmouth ; m. sec. w. 10 Apr. 1667, Ruth Maynard,

early sett, of N. E. pr. Geneal. Reg. I. 139, E. S. is by mistake call,
constable of Boston 1673. The names of seven chos. that yr. to that
office have only Skarlet and Shrimpton of that initial fam. letter, and
not one Elias. He was almost always in office; was rep. 1667 and five
yrs. more, a counsel, under Presid. Cutt, or Gov. Cranfield, 1681 or 2 a
capt. and major, rep. again 1690, and d. 19 Dec. 1695, aged 78. RICH
ARD, Cambridge, by w. Hannah had Samuel, b. 23 May 1644, bapt. at
Salem, 20 July 1651, he hav. rem. thither, and soon aft. to Portsmouth,
where by w. Mary were b. Mary, 6 Jan. 1658; Eliz. 8 May 1663;
Sarah, 30 June 1665 ; and Richard, 20 Mar. 1668 ; and d. 11 Oct.
1678. Prob. he was br. of the preced. tho. sometimes the name is print.
Stillman.
STILES, or STYLES, BENJAMIN, Woodbury, s. of Francis, m. Eliz.
Rogers of Milford, perhaps d. of Eleazer, had Sarah, bapt. May 1683 ;
Thomas, Nov. 1685, prob. d. bef. his f. ; Ruth ; Abigail, Apr. 1689 ; and
Francis ; rem. to Stratford, there d. 13 Apr. 1711, and his wid. d. 13 June
1719. EPHRAIM, Stratford, eldest s. of Francis, freem. 1668, m. 8 July
1669, Ruth, wid. of Obadiah Wheeler, and afterwards m. Bathsheba
Tomlinson, d. of Henry, by wh. he had, and left, at his d. 21 June
1714, three ds. : Eliz. b. 18 Feb. 1687 ; Sarah, 4 Nov. 1693 ; and
Phebe, 25 Mar. 1696; wh. all m. His est. was large. EPHRAIM,
Springfield, s. of John the sec. m. 1694, Abigail Neal, d. of Edward
of Westfield, had Rachel, b. 21 May 1695; Isaac, 6 Oct. 1696;
Ephraim, 5 Dec. 1699; Abigail, 15 Mar. 1704, d. young; and Han
nah 31 July 1708. FRANCIS, Windsor 1636, one of the first freem.
of Conn. 1640, had come from London, where he was a carpenter,
early in the yr. preced. aged 35, in the Christian, and sat down short
time at Dorchester. Prob. he was s. of Thomas of Milbrook, near
Ampthill in Co. Bedford, bapt. 1 Aug. 1602, wh. makes us presume,
that the age of the London rec. should be 33, as the reg. of the parish,
certif. to me by the min. in 1842, deserves much higher credit than that
of the custom ho. I presume he brot. w. Rachel, unless she was sis. aged
28, but two ws. and two ch. beside the four brs. in the same sh. are
diffic. to be appropr. Cothren, p. 694, makes him, from fam. tradit. to be
engag. in prepar. of a park for Richard Saltonstall, not Sir Richard, wh.
is a mistake, for Suffk. regr of deeds, Vol. I. 98, has the release of all
demands by him up to date of Sept. 1647, as well against Sir Richard,
as s. Robert. He work. I suppose under direct, of Robert, wh. was less
judicious than his elder br. He made over to Robert Saltonstall, by
deed dat. 22 Sept. 1647 all his Ids. at W. includ. 1500 acr. in one parcel
on the E. side of the riv. but the debt exceed the val. He then calls
hims. of Saybrook, yet bee. three of his four s. were aft. at Stratford.

Cothren tells, that he rem. a. 1640 to Stratford-, wh. must be sev. yrs.
too early (as tradit. oft. is), for Ephraim was b. at W. 3 Aug. 1645, and
his is the only b. found in the old rec. He was never of S. and he
prob. at W. d. 1653, or earlier. Of childr. he had Ephraim, Samuel,
Benjamin, Thomas, Hannah, and Mary, wh. m. Hope Washburn of
Derby; Hannah m. Edward Hinman. Her mo. was Sarah, as Hin-
man, 141, tells. She m. Robert Clark of Stratford, and by her will of
5 June 1677 left little prop, to disp. among her ch. The inv. of 2 Feb.

bapt. 27 Nov. 1593, at Milbrook, near Ampthill in Co. Bedford, a car
penter, adm. to be citizen of -London on 2d Tuesday of Apr. 1632, emb.
in the Christian, at London, Mar. 1 635, aged 40, says the London cus
tom ho. rec. with John, Thomas, and Francis, his brs. also, and went
with the earliest migrat. from Dorchester, where he could have liv.
but few mos. was never m. is nam. on the first page of Conn. rec. as
hav. trad, a musket with an Ind. in Apr. 1636, which he was direct, to
regain. He was k. by casual shot of a gun in a milita. train, Cothren
from the fam. mem. says, 3 Oct. 1651. HENRY, Windsor, s. of John,
brot. by his f. in the Christian 1635, at the age of 3 yrs. freem. 1669;
had ch. wh. d. with the mo. whose name in the Stiles MS. is call. Ketch,
of Stratford; and for sec. w. he m. 16 Apr. 1663, Eliz. Wilcockson,
prob. d. of William, had Eliz. b. 30 Nov. 1664; Margaret, 6 Feb.
1667; Mary, 28 Sept. 1669; Mindwell, 19 Dec. 1671, wh. d. bef. 13
yrs.; and Samuel, 16 May 1674. To these Cothren adds Henry, wh.
was the first b. Joseph, Benjamin, John, and Jonathan, but without
desirab. dates of b. tho. of some he gives day of d. and approxim. of
age, and says the f. d. 22 Aug. 1724, aged 95, wh. is perhaps less
exagger. than usual, not more than three yrs. too large. ISAAC, Strat
ford, s. of John the first, of Windsor, liv. first at Wethersfield 1665, and
when freem. 1670, had, says Cothren, from Presdt. Stiles's MSS. Isaac,
b. 1663; John; Joseph; Jonathan, 10 Mar. 1688; Sarah; Lydia or
Deborah ; and Hannah ; but he is not able to inform us of the name of
the mo. or dates of sev. ch. JOHN, Windsor, s. of Thomas, bapt. at Mil-
brook, Co. Bedford, 25 Dec. 1595, came with his brs. Francis, Henry,
and Thomas, in the Christian from London, Mar. 1635, tho. his age in
the custom ho. rec. is call. 35, wh. I judge to be liable to correct, by
exchang. the yrs. of Henry and John ; he also brot. w. prob. Jane, aged
35 ; and s. Henry, 3 yrs. and John, 9 mos. Of course he first liv. at
Dorchester or Boston, and prob. rem. with others of D. by Id. to Conn.
Beside the ch. he brot. from Eng. he had Isaac, and Sarah, and d. 4
June 1662. His wid. whose name is not kn. d. 3 Sept. 1674. Cothren
gays his will was of 30 May 1662. Sarah m. first, John Stewart of
Springfield ; and next, 1691, John Sackett of Westfield. Fam. tradit.
STILES. 195
claims for the w. of John, that she was the first Eng. woman that ever
stept ashore at Conn. wh. is as reasonab. as the similar stories for Mary
Chilion at Plymouth, and Ann Pollard at Boston. JOHN, Windsor, s. of
the preced. b. in Eng. m. 28 Oct. 1658, Dorcas, d. perhaps youngest, of
Henry Burt of Springfield, had Sarah, b. 12 Sept, 1661 ; Hannah, 23
Mar. 1664; John, 10 Dec. 1665 ; beside Ephraim and Thomas, not rec.
was freem. 1668, and d. 8 Dec. 1683. Hannah m. 21 Jan. 1687, Samuel
Bliss of Springfield; and Sarah m. 1 or 5 May 1681, Ephraim Ban
croft, and next, Thomas Phillips. JOHN, Windsor, eldest s. of the pre
ced. m. Ruth Bancroft, had Ruth, b. 5 Feb. 1691 ; John, 17 Dec. 1692;
Margaret, 23 Feb. 1695; Isaac, 30 July 1697; Ebenezer, 7 Apr.
1701 ; Noah, 31 Jan. 1703 ; Abel, d. soon ; Hannah, and ano. tw. both d.
soon, as had a pair tw. some yrs. bef. ; Abel, again, 5 or 10 Mar. 1709 ;
Hannah, again, 9 Oct. 1711 ; and Benoni, 1714, d. soon. He was gr.f.
of Rev. Ezra, disting. equal, for his extensive erudit. and amiable cre
dulity, wh. was b. 29 Dec. 1727, eldest ch. of Isaac, and only one by w.
Kezia, d. of Rev. Edward Taylor of Weslfield, wh. d. five days aft.
The chronology of too many of the fourteen ch. belong, to John, is so
strangely confus. in Cothren, 697, that it defies restorat. JOHN, Box-
ford, freem. 1690, may have been s. of Robert of the same. JOHN,
Dorchester 1692, perhaps was s. of Robert of the same; but certain,
is beyond reach, and all that can be kn. is, that his w. was Mary, that he
had John, Joseph, Eliz. Mary, Nathaniel, and Nehemiah, of wh. Joseph,
Mary, and Nathaniel d. of smallpox in the fatal season of Jan. 1721-2.
ROBERT, Boxford, m. 4 Oct. 1660, Eliz. d. of John Frye of Andover;
was of Rowley 1661, but perhaps rem. to Dorchester, where I find one
of this name 1663, yet in my opin. this Dorchester man was older than
him of B. possib. but not prob. was s. of John the first ; and inscript. on
gr. stone is of his d. 2 Nov. 1710, and age, a. 91, that may seem some
thing too high. SAMUEL, Stratford, br. of Benjamin, in the freem.'s list
of 1669, m. 31 Dec. 1664, says Cothren, Eliz. Sherwood, but d. child
less, prob. bef. 1682, as in 1673 he had agreed with others to begin the
sett, of Woodbury, and was not in the list of 1682. THOMAS, youngest
br. of Francis, Henry, and John, came in the same ship with them, aged
20, says the custom ho. rec. but that of his bapt. 7 Feb. 1613, in the
native parish, would give him two yrs. more. Yet it would be of higher
interest, to kn. where he liv. on our side of the water, and what could
be told of him, beyond the single fact, that, at the assault on the Pequods
in their last shelter of the swamp, 1 637, he was shot, but not hurt, by an
arrow strik. in his neckerchief. See Mason's Hist, of that war. He
may have been of Windsor, but it is at least equal, prob. that he was of
Dorchester, neither town hav. proof or presumpt. in its favor. Had he
196 STI
left descend, one might hope to hear of the birth-place of the ch.
Some slight note is seen in Stiles's MSS. indeed that he went to Flush
ing, L. I. had two ds. no s. THOMAS, Stratford, s. of Francis, had w.
wh. d. bef. him, but no ch. and he d. early in 1G83. THOMAS, Windsor,
youngest s. of John the sec. m. Bethia Hanmer, d. perhaps of John of
Scituate, as the fam. tradit. may indicate, had no ch. and d. 1745.
Eleven of this name had been gr. at Yale in 1851, and one at Harv.

STIRK, GEORGE, the gr. of Harv. 1646, is all unkn. to us by f. and
mo. br. sis. or friend, but W. Winthrop on his Catal. had quot. from MS.
of Rev. Andrew Eliot, " that Mr. S. was an emin. chemist, and wrote
sev. Latin treatis." As he did not have his A. M. we may presume he
went to Eng. early; and that he was d. 1698 is almost our whole rec.
of his life. But it is highly prob. that the true name was Starkey,

into our ch. 28 Sept. of that yr. freem. 13 May foil, by first w. Mary, d.
of Ernanuel Downing of Salem, niece of Gov. Winthrop, sis. of Sir
George, absurdly call. Lord George in the fam. geneal. had Benjamin,
bapt. 23 Aug. 1640, not nam. in the pr. geneal. that supplies but ill the
deficiency of accuracy by its beauty; Solomon, H. C. 1662, bapt. 1 Oct.
1643, a. 4 days old, tho. most of the print, books say he was b. 4 Oct.
and this error has been indecently interpol. into the town's copy of rec.
of b. perhaps by the hand that made the geneal. perhaps by ano. confid.
in the print, vol. and lightly regard, the sanctity of a public rec. ; and
Samson, b. 3, bapt. 7 Dec. 1645. His w. d. 16 June 1647, and he prob.

office to obey the Govr.'s warrant for tak. Francis Hutchinson into
custody, and freedom of remark, call, insolence by the author, the story
is giv. by Winth. II. 39. In 1650 he was chos. recorder of B. and a

Sewall in his Diary. JOHN, Wethersfield, m. 1642, Mary, sec. d. of

On turn, to our rec. we find, that he was of Boston, by w. Susanna had

Windsor, s. of the sec. Thomas, tax. in 1691, had Samuel, b. 1702, per

no doubt, in the Mary and John, or next mo. in the fleet with Winth.
desir. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was sw. 18 May foil, constable

foil, he commit, the indiscret. of solemnis. a mar. betw. Clement Briggs
and Joan Allen, for wh. he was fin. £5, tho. some yrs. after it was
remit. I hope the contr. of m. held good. Early in 1635 (after he had
tak. for sec. w. Margaret, wid. of Simon Huntington, wh. says the Rox-
bury ch. rec. had d. on the voyage, of smallpox, bef. reach. Boston in
1633), the planta. of Conn, was project, by many people of Watertown,
Newtown (since nam. Cambridge), and Dorchester, and from the two
latter the majority of ch. mem. rem. to found new sett, on the gr. river,
as it was call, but they were requir. to contin. under the jurisdict. of
Mass. He was one of those, oft. rep. betw. 1639 and 48, not ment.
later in my opin. (exc. that Windsor town and ch. rec. mark his d.
mean, some other person, 25 Mar. 1661) and liv. the resid. of his days
at Windsor, wh. was the nam. giv. to the Dorchester planta. How long
this time was, is unkn. or what ch. he had, but as he was ens. 1636, and
in 1640 made lieut. the freem. on the list of 1669, may well seem to be
a s. Hinman, 243, says he d. Sept. 1684, leav. good est. to ch. six by
name ; but as the names all agree with those of the ch. of sec. Thomas,
I doubt not the other circumstances belong to him. The same conclu
sion is drawn as to John, wh. follows on the same page. For this first
Thomas, from the Conn. rec. Trumbull, I. 83, as to distrib. of the sev.
portions of Mr. Stoughton's childr. and his w.'s 27 Mar. 1643, I infer,
that he d. late in 1642, and 42 yrs. earlier than Hinman's date. Yet it

of the first Israel, perhaps b. in Eng. where, aft. gr. at Harv. he resort,
and stud, at Oxford Univ. being by order of Parliam. creat. a fellow of
New Coll. and preach, at a parish in Co. Sussex, says Farmer, but
with unkn. authority, and by Calamy is put with min. eject, for losing
his fellowship soon aft. the restor. Aft. coming back, he was disting.
for preach, the Election serm. 1668, but would not confine his powers
to the pulpit ; and was one of the selectmen 1671-4, an Assist. 1671-86,
some yrs. commissnr. for the Unit. Col. and in the end of Oct. 1677
went, with Bulkley, as agent to defend our cause at London. In the
gr. contest with the crown he lost support of many friends, and stood
the very lowest in the nominal, of the eighteen Assist, in 1686, being
justly suspect, as guilty of moderat. He was appoint, by k. James
one of the Counc. to Sir E. Andros, but partook of the N. E. spirit,
when the Gov. was depos. and so gain, the favor of Mather, that he
nominat. him for lieut. gov. in the new charter, in wh. office, as also
ch. just, in 1695, he contin. till his d. 7 July 1701. Unhap. for his
reputa. he was made chief in 1692 of the unlawful special court of oyer
and terminer for trials of witches with the more amiable Sewall and
Saltonstall, of wh. the one left the bench in disgust at the outrages on
justice, and the other most bitterly repent, in public sackcloth ; but
Stoughton, a bach, was made of sterner stuff. From the unerring tri
bunal in the gr. day of retrib. justice, he may receive the mercy that
he knew not how to show ; and some tenderness might be felt even by
fellow mortals for his murderous proceeding in the case of Rebecca
Nurse, did not such conduct in a judge, aft. verdict of acquittal, neces
sarily stimulate execration. In the dark rec. of criminal adjudicat. no
216 STOW.
instance can be found to parallel his blindness ; yet if pity for delus. in
the man must be express, what excuse may be fram. for ignorance in a
magistrate presid. in such unlawful tribunal. See Quincy in Hist, of
the Univ. I. 178-9. He join, in most unseemly union the various
functions of legislat., judicial, and executive authority ; and in execut.
of his sad duty he was so virulent, possessed against the accused, *when
he heard of reprieve of some under sentence of d. at a former term, as
to complain of obstruction of justice, and withdrew from the Court.
The recall of Sir William Phips left him in chief command in the prov.
until arr. of Lord Bellomont in 1699, and he had the gratifica. of lay
ing the corner stone of a coll. at Cambridge, built at his cost, and honor,
with his name. Again he bee. ch. magistr. on d. of his superior. His
monum. in the grave-yard at D. bears a long inscript. very closely
imitat. from that of the learned Pascal, and has no reference to the
judicial murders at Salem. See scrupul. Eliot's Biog. Diet, and Quin-
cy's Hist. Harv. Coll. In his will, execut. one day bef. his d. pro. 23 of
same mo. many good gifts out of his large est. are made, as beside
others, £50 to the ch. beside two pieces of plate, £50 to the poor of the
town, and £150 to the sch. to the wid. and childr. of Rev. John Collins
£100, to Rev. John Danforth, wh. m. his niece, £50, beside a negro
slave, and an orchard to his w. and £300 to Theophilus Minot, besides
less sums to other relat. and made William Tailer, his neph. afterwards
lieut. Gov. and nieces Eliz. Danforth, Eliz. Nelson, and Mehitable
Cooper Excors. Of Theophilus Minot I find no other ment. and am
led to conject. that he was a gr.ch. of the testator's elder sis. Hannah,
wh. had m. James Minot.
STOVER, or STOVARD, JOHN, Pemaquid, perhaps s. of Silvester, sw.
fidel. to Mass. 1674. He liv. in later yrs. at York or Wells, and his

the d. of f. the residue of the fam. rem. to sev. towns, but princip. to
Concord and Middletown. JOHN, Concord, Farmer says, had s. Na
thaniel, wh. I think a mistake. He was, prob. s. of the preced. and
may have not rem. to Middletown, yet perhaps serv. in Philip's war,
when one John S. of Capt. Newberry's comp. was wound, near the end
of May, and cured last of Jan. foil. tho. this soldier may have been a
younger man, and I have some ground for presum. that John, s. of
Roxbury John, was d. bef. Sept. 1653, and perhaps never HI. bee. his
brs. Thomas, Nathaniel, and Samuel then unit, with Hopestill Foster,
all legatees under the will of Rachel Bigg of Dorchester, in a composi
tion as to their respect, shares in est. of Smallhope Bigg, and John Bigg,
their uncles in Co. Kent, old Eng. and it is almost certain, that the other
brs. of those three must have had equal int. beside that John had m. a d.
of Rachell Bigg, and was made excor. of her will. JOHN, Middletown,

1629, one of the eleven earliest sett, in that penins. came prob. in the

better than mine, or that of the keeper of her majesty's public office, wh.
confirm, mine. Diversity in reading old MS. must be expected. See 3
Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 272, and Geneal. Reg. XIV. 323. But the

on the same day that Hooke was made pastor, but what day that was, is
ask. in vain, and only prob. conject. fixes the yr. 1637. He had, no
doubt, adequate educ. but none of the inquisit. scholars of New Haven
have ascert. in what place he was b. or taught. Emery says, his first
w. was a sis. of the maiden found, of the town, and his sec. was the wid.
of Gov. Newman, but of neither do we hear the name. All his ch.
Samuel, H. C. 1664; Susanna; Sarah; Abiah; and Hannah; were, I
STR 223
doubt not, by the first. Hooke being drawn to Eng. from New Haven,
where he had been teacher conjunct, with famous Davenport, our Taunton
min. was call. 1659 to take his place, and was induct. 26 Nov. there d. 22
Apr. 1674. Dodd, in East Haven reg. tells, that Susanna m. a Mason,

1717, being, as his successor wrote in 1770 with some exagger. eighty-
two yrs. old, but Dodd says above 75. STEPHEN, freem. of Mass. 1644,
may have been of Concord or Sudbury ; but the sagacity of Farmer
suggest, better habitat, as in the next artic. WILLIAM, came in the
Jonathan, 1639, and exc. that Peter Noyes of Sudbury paid for his

Mary had Judah, b. 1666 ; Eleazer, 1668 ; beside a John, wh. d. 1667;

Nov. 1669. STEPHEN, Gloucester 1642, perhaps was owner of a ho.
earlier, rem. to Charlestown, there by w. Ursula had Hannah, b. 10
Nov. 1644; was freem. prob. as Farmer happily conject, that yr. in
May, but not adm. in right of the Charlestown ch. to wh. he unit, with
his w. 21 Mar. not Oct. as Barry made it, 1652. He prob. had other
ch. bef. or aft. or both, Stephen, Samuel, and John, and, I think, d. bef.
1657, in wh. yr. the wid. m. 13 Oct. Samuel Hosier; and she had third
h. and 15 July 1673 took for her fourth Griffin Crafts. STEPHEN, Water-
town, s. prob. of the preced. by w. Deborah had Stephen, b. 20 June
1667; Sarah, 2 Oct. 1669; and Barry gives them, at Cambridge, Re
becca, 1683; Deborah, 1685; Joseph, 1687; and Benjamin, 1689; d.
next yr. and the mo. d. 7 Apr. 1689. Barry finds ano. STEPHEN, with

STRETCHER, HENRY, Watertown 1687, appears to have been unm.
STRETTON, BARTHOLOMEW, Boston, by w. Eliz. had William, b. 30
Jan. 1659 ; but I hear no more of him. Perhaps this surname may be
the same as Stratton.

action of battery by Dexter against Capt. Endicott. At the Ct. in
Sept. 1632 he was fin. £3 for refus. to watch, but at the Gen. Ct.
Sept. 1 638, it was remit, to him, as were those of Sir Richard Salton-

She may have come betw. Mary and Hannah. On the high authority
of Dr. Allen I can find but sixteen ch. beside the inf. wh. d. He was,
very likely, b. at Taunton in Co. Somerset, and his f. may have been
Richard, and his sis. Elinor may have been w. of Walter Dean ; but
that he ever liv. at Dorchester is highly improb. for Harris, or any more
search, inquirer has not found his name there, bef. or aft. 1638, exc.
once as witness to a deed, wh. may have been writ, at Hingham ; and it
is hardly to be believ. that the same w. wh. bore the two ch. at N. had
been taken at D. in 1630. That he was indeed ever resid. at D. aft.
1638, can be surmis. from the trifling incident only, that John Hill was
m. at Boston 16 Jan. 1657 to Eliz. Strong by Humphrey Atherton, the
Assist, wh. was a Dorchester man. Nor is it more prob. as the tradit.
ornaments the story, that he came from Eng. with Warham or accomp.
him in 1636 to W. Hitchcock, Parsons, Cothren, Geneal. Reg. VIII.
180, and Emery too easily adm. such relat. in my opin. that relies on
the powerful contempo. silence of his br.-in-law, Roger Clap, wh. did
come in that sh. and m. a d. of his fellow passeng. Thomas Ford. For
the modern origin of these improb. tradit. I presume that, as the ancest.
was at Windsor, within twelve yrs. of its settlem. and a s. of his m, a
Warham, and as Ford rem. with W. to Windsor the story spread grad.
that he had come from Eng. to Dorchester, with W. and accomp. him to
his next home in Conn, but the reporters did not consider two points,
that many people were of Dorchester, wh. did not come with Warham,
and many of Windsor, wh. did not come from Dorchester. In McClure's
acco. of sett, of Windsor, writ, in 1797, pr. 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. V. 167,
is seen the list of the sixteen male mem. of the ch. of Dorchester that
STRONG. 227
went with Warham thither, among wh. is NO Strong. As Roger Clap
had m. a d. of Ford two or three yrs. bef. the exodus, the d. wh. bee.
the sec. w. of Strong, as it seems to me after it, may have contin. at D.
to comfort her sis. and avoid the perils of ano. first planting. He was a
tanner, one of the pillars at foundat. of ch. Elder 1663, and his w. d. 6
July 1688, and he d. 14 Apr. 1699, aged 91, says his s. Jerijah, wh. in
mod. tradit. is easily corrupt, to 94. Beside Sarah, above ment. Abigail

STYCHE, HENRY, Lynn, was an efficient workman at the iron foundry

not inform, us." That remark may raise a doubt in the mind of any
reader, even if the writer be not thot. to distrust the marvel. Yet in the

his Hist. p. 38, tells, of wh. Eliz. Johnson, perhaps w. of Stephen, ac-
knowl. bef. Justice Dudley Bradstreet, 10 Aug. 1692, that she had a
hand in it, but she was so liberal in confess, many other torments bestow,
by her upon other neighbors, that I believe she saved her life by her
falsehoods. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 124. But the magistr. was slow
to believe the horrible confess, of his neighb. against themselves, and so
the baffled bloodhounds wh. rejoic. in the diabolical delus. were let loose
upon him, as a Sadducee. THOMAS, Roxbury, m. Mary, d. of Thomas
Lamb, had Henry, b. in Boston (where prob. he first pursu. his profess.),

1681, for wh. Maria, a negro serv. of Joshua Lamb, being convict, by
her confess, at the Court in Sept. foil, the Gov. benignant Bradstreet,

SWATMAN, JOHN, Cambridge, is no doubt error in Genealog. Reg. IX.
168 (but truly tak. from the old book in Boston), for Thomas Sweet-
man ; and the date of b. of the first ch. is one yr. too early.
SWELUS, an unfortun. name in Geneal. Reg. II. 264, belongs, I am
confident, to Robert Twelves of Braintree. See, also, an equal mistake

Geneal. Reg. XIII. p. 5, says, 1638, H. C. 1657 ; Timothy, 7, bapt. 10
May 1640, d. soon ; Deborah, 28 Aug. bapt. 4 Sept. 1642 ; but the dates
of bapt. of the last three are wrong, in the copy by Budington scrupu
lously foil, and the orig. being lost, we are always doubtful, whether the
transcript is correct. In ea. of the three cases, the Geneal. Reg. XIII.
135, has used the day of birth, but without turn, to the almanac, call, it
the day of bapt. Worse error than this readers may be led into by tak.
the order of the ch. where Sarah is rank, under 12, as the youngest d.
when she was the eldest of the eight ds. if not of the thirteen ch. Tim
othy, again, whose date is not found ; and one more s. if Mather, III. 132,
has correct, quot. his epit. wh. is doubted. His neighb. Johnson, so
many yrs. his parishioner, speaks of ch. " their numb, being ten, both s.
and ds. a certain sign of the Lord's intent to people this vast wilderness,"
he adds, with juster application of the doings of Providence, than he
usual, exhibits. He was b. at Canterbury, in Co. Kent, 5 Apr. 1599, s.
of Rev. William, matric. 1617 at Emanuel, and took at the Univ. of
Cambridge his A. B. 1620-1, preach, as a lecturer at the ch. of St. Ath-
olines, London, m. July 1621, and there had eldest d. Sarah, but in 1625
bee. rector of Dunstable, in wh. office he had large serv. dur. the plague
that extend, wide, that yr. Mather, wh. confess, his informat. is not
large, says, he was always worried by the prelatists for insuffic. conform.

Biogr. Diet, gives agreeab. details. Of one of this name, prob. a maiden,
wh. d. at Cambridge 10 June 1653, no diligence of inquiry can be ex

and in Eng. by him m. as the wid. Story), her gr.ch. and may well be
judg. the same in Cotton's will, 1652, nam. as his gr.ch. Betty Day. We
know, Cotton then had no gr.ch. and this ch. must have been b. of some
d. of the wid. Story, wh. in Eng. or here had m. a Day. That name is
found early both at Ipswich and Gloucester ; but, tho. Mr. Felt has large

acquaint, with the early inhab. of both those towns, he can discov. no f.
for this w. of Synionds. By her he had, at G. Sarah, b. 2 July 1668, wh.
by the will of her gr. gr.mo. Mather, had gift of one of her cows. But I
kmTiicf more of him, exc. that he went home and was liv. at Wethersfield

recommend, by pastor of a ch. at Southampton, and in that right his
posthum. ch. was bapt. here 21 Apr. 1644, a. 3 days old by the name,
Richgrace, giv. by the wid. mo. no doubt. So it might be infer, that he
had gone from Lynn with Rev. Abraham Pierson ; and Lechford's Plain
Dealing, 43, makes it certain, that he was one of the found, of Pierson's
ch. gather, at Lynn, 1641, as Winth. tells, II. 6, for the object of going to
the E, end of Long Island, tho. it is implied from Lechford's language,
that he never went. His wid. m. Isaac Walker, and her name was Su

2d Samuel ; but by some rec. it appears, that ano. w. Dorothy was liv.
1645 ; yet she may have been w. of his first s. Samuel, for, strange as it
seems, he had two Samuels then liv. Farmer gives him other ds. Su
sanna, and Dorothy, wh. m. he says, Joseph Jacobs ; and Mary, wh. m.
Peter Duncan. But of the last we find that she was nam. Epes bef. m.

third, possib. fourth w. had been wid. of Rev. William Worcester, and,
bef. him, of John Hall, and bef. him, of Henry Byley. She was so
happy in find. hs. that wh. was her f. has not been told. But one of his
ws. was not (as frequent, has been boasted), a d. of the first Gov. Win-
throp, wh. had only one of four ds. that outliv. two yrs. and she m. Sam
uel Dudley. The mistake arose from the use of the word sis. S. in the
letter 30 Sept. 1648, of first Winthrop to his s. John wh. had been a
mem. of the ch. at Ipswich, and may refer only to Christian relat. Un
der Truesdale will be found correct, of an error of Farmer aris. in the
same way. Yet possib. the sec. w. of S. was a d. of Col. Edward Reed of
Essex Eng. and so sis. of the sec. w. of the younger John Winth. Of his

to New London and in 1656 I find him among the freem. of Portsmouth,
R. I. and not long aft. at Providence, of wh. he was rep. 1661. He liv.
later at Tiverton. Prob. he was progenit. of a num. race ; tho. I find

may provoke inq. That her h. was a gr.s. of the Rev. Peter, may well
be ; and that his bapt. name must make him s. of Gershom is almost cer
tain, for Peter, of Fairfield, s. of the first Peter, was d. leav. s. of the
same name too young to be m. in 1700 ; and Peter s. of Edward was d.
without leav. s. of this name. But greater doubt in my mind is of the yr.
to wh. this Rachel's m. is postpon. by him, tho. undoubted, the Wethers-
field rec. says "Mr. Peter B. and Rachel T. were m. 21 Mar. 1699," i.
e. 1700, N. S. My conject. is that Samuel's Rachel had been m. some
yrs. bef. to Gershom, s. of the third Peter ; and that John's Rachel, aft.

but short time when he made his will, wh. is one of the first three in our
Vol. I. pro. 7 Dee. 1641, refer, to s. Allen in Eng. wh. prob. never came.
He was, I judge, a trader, as he speaks of goods remain, beside beq. of
money and especial, of trees, no doubt fruit trees, as in Geneal. Reg. II.

Farmer made it 1650, with a supposit. s. of the same name. His will, of
TAYLOR. 259
28 Apr. 1680, pro. 12 Apr. 1683, calls liinis. 72yrs. old, makes w. Grace
sole excor. gives Jeremiah and Eliz. the ground " that the house was
burnt on," in the fire of 1679, I suppose ; but they are charg. to pay £10
to his gr.d. Eliz. T. at age of 18, or m. " that is my eldest son's d." and of
est. at Billerica devises housing to Nathaniel, some to d. Grace Meade of
Billerica, whose h. is not of my acquaint, and some to s. Isaiah, beside
some in Boston. The wid. d. at Roxbury 11 Apr. 1712, aged 91 yrs.
His eldest s. f. of Eliz. whose mo.'s name is not within my guess, was
dec. as may be infer.
TAYLOR, TAYLOUR, or TAILER, ABRAHAM, Haverhill, in his will of »

23 Mar. 1666, John Moulton, beside Martha, wh. m. 25 Sept. 1667,
Hezron Leavitt. CLEMENT, Dorchester, owes his being to Farmer under
introduct. of Harris, the creat. being due in the highest prob. to the same
bad writ, or ill read, as made Tapley out of Topliff. DANIEL, Saybrook

freem. 2 May 1638, may be the man wh. bee. insane, there, 1640, as

1663, his neighb. Rootens made him one of the overseers of his will;
and d. 28 Dec. 1667. GEORGE, Scarborough, submit, to Mass, jurisdict.

Watertown, an orig. propr. freem. 14 May 1634, constable 1642, by w.
Achsa, says Bond, had Samuel, b. Apr. 1632, d. soon ; and ano. s. 11 Mar.
1643, to wh. Bond, 601, gives a name, Seabred, that must be read wrong, in
my opin. at least it is wrong as s. of Gregory, if right of Thomas. He
soon aft. sold his Ids. and is found at Stamford to d. 24 Sept. 1657. His w.

JAMES, Reading, may have been that surveyor, much employ, in 1671
and 2, d. at R. 1703. * JAMES, Boston, by w. Eliz. had Eliz. b. 24 Oct.

liam, 19 June 1696; Mercy, 13 Nov. 1700; and Mary, 15 July 1702;

Winth. desir. adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was sw. 18 May foil.
Lewis tells, that he was from Haverhill, Co. Suffk. and that his w. and
ch. d. on the passage. JOHN, Windsor 1640, but is not kn. to have ever
been at Dorchester, was in esteem 1 644, and no later is any ment. found,
so that he may have had w. and ch. and rem. to some uncert. place. A
Rhoda T. at W. 1659, had seat in the meeting ho. and may be thot. his wid.
or ch. An Amos T. d. at Windsor, 1 644 ; and Hannah d. there 1 650, wh.
may have been his ch. or possib. of Stephen. JOHN, Weymouth, in his
will of 6 Jan. pro. 22 May 1668, names w. Rebecca, d. Rebecca, w. I sup
pose, of Richard Gurney, and s. John wh. is made excor. JOHN, Cambridge

by w. Phebe, I presume d. of the wid. Ann Rockwood, had Mary, b. 18
May 1660 ; John, 10 Apr. 1666 ; and perhaps rem. to Braintree. JOHN,
Ipswich, a soldier, k. in the gr. battle with Philip, 19 Dec. 1675. JOHN,
Salem 1671, a joiner, may have been s. of Richard of Boston, and rem. to
Boston, there by w. Rebecca had John, b. 22 Nov. 1674 ; William, 21 May
1 676 ; and Eliz. 1 680 ; but I discov. nothing more. JOHN, Hampton, took
the o. of alleg. 25 Apr. 1 678 ; and later in the same yr. ano. JOHN of Hamp
ton was equal, patriot. One of the two, I suppose, by w. Deborah had Mary,
b. 3 May 1687. JOHN, Hadley, m. 12 Dec. 1666, Mary, d. of the first
Thomas Selden, sw. alleg. 8 Feb. 1679, as did JOHN of Northampton on
the same day and this latter better kept his word in becom. freem. 1683.
He may have been s. of John of Windsor, and certain, m. 18 Dec. 1662,

Richard, wh. in the list stands next bef. him, but I am not able to say
more, than that he was of ano. ch. than that of Boston. RICHARD, Boston,

wh. his ho. and Id. are devis. to Samuel Treadwell, perhaps a cous. as he
calls Thomas, and Nathaniel Treadwell, Thomas, and Seaborn Wilson,
Mary Gaines, Esther Hovey, and Martha Cross. SAMUEL, Windsor,
had, as Parsons in Geneal. Reg. V. 365, quotes rec. d. Martha, wh. at the
age of 20, m. 30 Oct. 1679, Josiah Ellsworth. But this is a sad mistake
of Taylor for Gaylord. SAMUEL, Springfield, wh. sw. alleg. there 31
Dec. 1678, or next day, may be s. of Stephen of Windsor, was a black

nam. as dec. leav. ch. Mercy and Mabel Buck. This list varies slightly
from that in Geneal. Reg. VI. 266, but seems to me of author!. His will
names only s. Joseph, ds. Mary Bush, Eliz. Phelps, and Hannah Loomis,
beside that Mercy, and Sarah, wh. had m. one of the innumer. tribe of
Williams, was dec. leav. only ch. Sarah. SAMUEL, Wethersfield, s. of

next yr. SEABRED, Reading, s. of Thomas of Watertown, m. 22 Nov.
1671, Mary, d. of Richard Harrington, was freem. 1677, against wh. I
hardly suppose that Farmer design, any imput. when he calls him Sin-

m. 1 Nov. 1642, Sarah Hosford, d. of Rev. William, had Stephen, b. 11
Mar. 1644; Samuel, 8 Oct. 1647 ; and by sec. w. m. 25 Oct. 1649, Eliz.
Newell, had John, 22 Mar. 1652; Thomas, 5 Oct. 1655; Abigail, 19
Mar. 1657; Mary, 18 June 1661 ; Mindwell, 5 Nov. 1663; and Na

Stephen, and d. 7 Sept. 1665. His wid. m. 15 Oct. 1666, Barnabas
Hinsdale, wh. was k. by the Ind. 18 Sept. 1675; and she had third h.
Feb. 1679, Walter Hickson. He may have been s. of John of Hartford,
but whence he came, is uncert. STEPHEN, Boston, by w. Hannah had
Hannah, b. 2 July 1668. STEPHEN, Suffield, s. of the first Stephen, m.
8 Nov. 1676, Joanna Porter of Farmington, prob. d. of Thomas, had Sa

Edward Ketchum, had Thomas, b. 26 Nov. 1668 ; Deborah, June 1671 ;

1740. The f. of his first w. in leav. her a legacy by his will, declar. that
" Thomas Taylor shall have nothing to do with it," and that was caus. by
his ill conduct. THOMAS, Springfield, s. of Jonathan of the same, m. 29
Dec. 1687, Mary, d. of John Petty, had Hannah, b. 18 Aug. 1690; and
d. at Springfield Apr. 1691. WILLIAM, Lynn 1642. WILLIAM, Weth-

Sarah; ano. Samuel; Mary, 1654; William, 1659; Margaret, 1663 ;
Jonathan, 1666 ; and the seven ch. were liv. 1720. WILLIAM, New
London, kn. there, says Caulkins, only 1650 to 3, perhaps was not the
freem. 1669 of Wethersfield. WILLIAM, Concord, m. Mary Meriam,
perhaps d. of Joseph, had John, b. 19 Oct. 1653 ; Samuel, 3 July 1655,

to go to Boston for refuge. THOMAS, an Eng. knight and baronet, came
to Boston, with favor of appoint, by Cromwell to be Gov. of Acadia, in
1657, assoc. with Col. Crowne, as grantee of Nova Scotia, spent many
yrs. this side of the water, speculat. in Ids. far and near, join the ch. of
Increase Mather in June 1670, yet was careful to hold good terms with
Charles II. (wh. renew, his office of Gov.) with wh. in former yrs. he
interpos. his kind offices to befriend N. E. One mark of this I copied in
the State Paper office at London, July 1842, being his letter to Seer.
Morrice from Boston, Aug. 1661, about the regicides, Whalley and Goffe,
with a very curious one from Rev. John Davenport, on the same subject,
addressed to Temple. The clerg. beats the courtier on that topic ; but
allowance is to be made for the cause, inasmuch as Temple was sincere,
we may well suppose, and be more sure that Davenport was not. He
thought a little equivocation justifiable for the glory of God, and safety
of the proscribed. A pleasant anecdote is relat. by Hutchinson of T.'s
persuad. the king, that the pine tree on the coin struck in Boston, was
the royal oak that saved his majesty. I doubt not, this is as near the
truth as tradit. oft. reaches ; perhaps it was uttered by the traveller to
our friend the Earl of Manchester, or even to the Earl of Clarendon,
whose well-tried loyalty quarrelled not with discretion ; and in the way
of trifling not uncommon in that court, may possib. tho. I think not, have
got up to the throne. If the merry monarch had been ill-natured eno.
to ask what the date, 1652, meant. Sir Thomas must have had awk
ward sensations. He d. in London, 27 Mar. 1674, had left at B. a will
of 14 Oct. 1671, pro. 28 July 1674, but all the excors. Gov. Leverett
capt. Lake, capt. Hull, and John Richards, immediat. renounced the
office, prob. thro, fear that the debts would much exceed the means.
Ano. will had been pro. the very day bef. at the Prerog. Ct. Doctor's
Commons, made 27 Mar. of that yr. so that the first, wh. may be found
in our Prob. Vol. VI. 59, is supersed. by this of Ib. 327.
TENCH, EDWARD, New Haven 1643. WILLIAM, Plymouth, came in

THACHER, or THATCHER, * ANTHONY, Marblehead, came from Salis
bury in Co. Wilts, where he had serv. occasion, as curate for Peter
Thacher 1631 and 4, the rector of St. Edmunds in that city, wh. prob.
was his br. He had been a non-conformist, liv. in Holland more than
20 yrs. bef. and emb. on 6 Apr. 1635 at Southampton in the James
(tho. we might by Hubbard, 200, be misled to think he came in the
Angel Gabriel, cast away, 15 Aug.), and arr. at Boston 3 June, in the
ship's clearance call, a tayler for decept. not of the inferiors at the
custom ho. wh. certif. that the total num. of men, youths, and boys, was
53, when we are sure there were many more perhaps, a hundred and
.fifty per cent. He brot. a sec. w. and four ch. William, b. of first w. as
may have been some of the rest, Mary, Edith, and Peter, a babe, and
prob. was accomp. by his cous. Rev. Joseph Avery, with w. and six ch.
;and his neph. Thomas, afterwards first min. of the third or O. S. ch. in
Boston, beside a serv. Peter Higden ; but of all these, only the names of
Higden and of Anthony P. appear in that list of 53. Such was the
-mode of evasion of the petty tyranny of the Lords of the Council. The
ship was of 300 tons, and might well have brot. 150 passeng. when so
many were eager to come, yet the names of 53 alone are giv. Most of
these went to Ipswich, and a large part of them sett, the same and foil,
yr. at Newbury ; but Thacher with his friend Avery, wh. was invit. to
TEACHER. 271
preach at Marblehead, with all their respect, ch. and fam. exc. his neph.
Thomas, then 15 yrs. old, wh. prefer. Id. travel, emb. in a pinnace of
Isaac Allerton to return from I. to M. on 15 Aug. 1635, and next day
were wreck, on a rock, or rather ledge off Cape Ann. Of 23 persons in
that little bark, all but Thacher and his w. were drown. He and she
were cast on the barren islet, ever since call Thacher's woe, as the outer
rock, gain, the name of Avery's fall. Slight acco. of this sad occur, is in
Magn. II. cap. 2, but fuller in Winth. I. 165, and the personal relat. of
the whole by the suffer, is in Young's Chron. of Mass. 483, and I can
recommend no more strik. narrative in our early hist. He was by the Ct.
made admor. of Joseph Avery, as Col. Rec. I. 154, shows. Our Gen. Ct.
bestow a good sum in money on the surv. suffer, as in Rec. I. 157 ap
pears, and afterwards, Ib. 191, made a gr. of that disastrous isl. for an
inherit, wh. was not, I imagine, worth tak. into possess. He preach, per
haps, short time at Marblehead, where he had prob. Judah ; John, b. 17
Mar. 1639 ; but went for perman. settlem. bef. 1643, to Yarmouth, and

Salisbury in O. E. Benjamin, b. 13, bapt. 27 Apr. 1634, but this ch.
perhaps d. soon ; as did his mo. Mary if a fam. mem. be correct, wh. says

21 Oct. 1726. Of the Watertown fam. descend, all retain the old spell,
as if deriving their name from the early occupat. of a thatcher, wh.
seems very prob. THOMAS, Weymouth, s. of Rev. Peter, rector of St.
Edmunds, Salisbury, in Co. Wilts, b. 1 May 1 620, bef. his f. was induct,
(but the fam. origin was prob. Co. Somerset) came with his uncle
Anthony in the James from Southampton, arr. at Boston 4 June 1635,
went to Ipswich with his uncle and other friends, but avoid the peril of
their return in Aug. of the same yr. in wh. all but Anthony and his w.
were lost, was put under the direct, of Rev. Charles Chauncey of Scit-

1643, Eliz. youngest d. of Rev. Ralph Partridge of Duxbury, and was
ord. min. at W. (as success, of Samuel Newman, wh. rem. with many of
his flock to Rehoboth) 2 Jan. 1645, not 1664, as in Gen. Reg. VIII. 183
the figures read, was freem. 1645, when the prefix of Mr. is strange,
omit. His good sense unit, with a general acquaint, in science of that
day acquir. for him great reput. as a physician, and to complete his
honors, Mather wh. always loves an exaggera. makes him compose a
Hebrew Lexicon, so compress. " that within one sheet of paper, he had
every considerable word of the language." The ch. were Thomas, Ralph ;
alias Rodolphus ; Peter, b. at Salem (we kn. not by wh. accid. the mo.
was there) 18, bapt. 20 July 1651, H. C. 1671; Patience; and Eliz.

June 1664, soon aft. wh. he m. Margaret, wid. of Jacob Sheaffe, d. of
Henry Webb, and rem. to Boston, join, the first ch. 4 Aug. 1667, and
was desir. to be min. of a new society there, since call, the O. S. ch.
growing out of the dissatisf. at the decept. artifices for bring, of Davenport
from New Haven to succeed Wilson. In Oct. 1669, to save the feelings
of his fellow-worship, he took dismiss, to the ch. at Charlestown, and on
16 Feb. foil, was install, over the new ch. of B. and was held in high
esteem. In 1674, he with Increase Mather, was add. to former licensers
of the press; and he d. 15 Oct. 1678, as on p. 152 of the Magn. III. is
told, tho. on the next p. where he gives as a curiosity some elegiac

strains in Latin and Greek by an Ind. youth nam. Eleazer, then student
in the senior class at Harv. the Eccles. Histor. with his aptitude for
error, makes it 18 Oct. Still his life is one of the best in the vol. tho.
Eliot has judiciously curtail, it by four fifths. His wid. d. 23 or 4 Feb.
1694, as town rec. and Sewall's Diary tell. Patience m. William Kemp.

his wid. d. 22 July 1730, giv. all her prop, to s. Peter wh. was min. of
Weymouth, m. 14 Oct. 1708, Hannah Curwin, but had no ch. His name
is oft. repeat, on acco. of the extraord. circumst. of his being brot. from the
pulpit at W. to the new North ch. in Boston, as collea. with Rev. John
Webb, wh. had been gr. at Harv. 12 yrs. later. How long aft. 1696 he
was ord. at W. or what were the concomitants of his lot there are unkn.
That he must have been highly regard, at W. and not thro, the partiality
of a few hearers, wh. rememb. the powers of his uncle half a century bef.
is a reasonab. presumpt. and why many should have desir. him is easier
to conject. than the reason for the bitter and most indecent repugnance
to his installat. that any of the petty squabbles a. the introd. of a min. in
any parish of N. E. have produced. Four, five, or six publicat. on the
two sides, may be preserv. by the curious for this eventful yr. 1720, on
28 Jan. in wh. an ordain, council was oblig. to go secret, to the house of
worship in Boston ; where the disord. vulgarity, as tradit. relates, was too
bad to be entrusted even to printing. He d. 26 Feb. 1739. Of this
name 19 had in 1854, been gr. at Harv. and 4 at Yale.
THARPE, NATHANIEL, New Haven, perhaps s. of William, was

Eleazer, 5 Nov. 1648; m. prob. for sec. or third w. 1662, Margaret,
wid. of Robert Pigg, and is in the list of freem. 1669, but if, as I can
hardly doubt was the case, the name be the one in other rec. spelled
Thorpe, then d. bef. 1685.

William, 11 May 1705. ZECHARIAH, Braintree, s. prob. of Richard
the first, d. prob. unm. 29 July 1693. Remarkable may appear the fact,
that so few of these men took the o. of freemen, but it is kn. that fewer
from Braintree than any other town appear. In 1678, five were sw.
and hardly as many more can be seen in the long period preced. from
1630. So little, comparative, was the migrat. of these fams. of Thayer,
that in the catalog, of gr. at Harv. are seen nineteen, and not one at
Yale.
THEALE, THELE, THEELE, or THALE, * JOSEPH, Stamford, prob. s. of
Nicholas of Watertown, freem. 1662, is by me presum. to be that man
made freem. 1662, whose name in Conn. Col. Rec. I. 391, is giv. Theed;
but he was of too much value to be thus obscur. rep. 1671, 3, 5, 6, and
7 ; aft. 1687 had good est. rem. to Bedford, just beyond the Col. bound,
in jurisdict. of N. Y. and I regret that no genealog. details are attain.

f. was one of the first sett, of Boston, to wh. tradit. his judgm. would
have yield, little credit, had it not been assail, on its weak side ; for the
story went on, that he, the Framingham man, was upwards of 100 yrs.
old. Now only one man ever reach, his century at F. and that was
Isaac Clark, while the names of sixty-eight persons in F. wh. d. at the
age of 85 and upwards, furnish, us by Barry, do not include any Thomas.
The first part of the myth, then, may not be more than ten yrs. beyond
the truth, but this example of longevity is sixteen yrs. at least, short of
the pretence. JOSEPH, Springfield, s. of Rowland, by w. Mary had

and from Mr. White, wh. furnish to Geneal. Reg. IX. that very valu. list
of baptisms, I am instruct, that the town rec. is usual, the true one, and
the ch. rec. frequent, false, or wonderful, careless rather. Prob. this
was kept by Rev. John Davenport, less precise in facts than in doctrine.

Ct. of Conn, interpose to attempt adjustm. of his dime, with the ch. there,

he was not relat. of the other Johns, but had a child, perhaps Mary, in

1753. Farmer had once suppos. that the Count was descend, of Rev.
William, to wh. mistake he was led by the first Presdt. Adams ; and the
correct, is due to the investigat. of Francis Jackson of Boston. JOSEPH,
Wallingford, perhaps s. of the first John of New Haven, had in. prob. as

Nov. 1679 ; and Susanna, 8 Aug. 1688; as the copy of lost rec. in the
City Clk's. office shows ; but there may have been others, for my confi
dence is something abated by his giv. the name as Thredneedle. His
will of 2 Apr. 1700, pro. 7 Apr 1702, of wh. w. Damaris was extrix.
makes it prob. that the two eldest were not liv. but the other s. and four

precise use of words, when T. in convey, of part of ship to William

the wid. mo. of vendor's w. * THOMAS, prob. s. of the first John, bapt.

this passeng. was prob. ret. by the same vessel ; and Belkn. and Farmer,

TICKNALL, HENRY, is the name of a passeng. emb. at London in the
Hopewell, in the autumn of 1635, aged only 15; but whether he ever
reached Boston, or where he sat down, is untold.
TICKNOR, or anciently, TICKNER, WILLIAM, Scituate 1646, or earlier,
m. at Boston, 29 Oct. 1656, Hannah, d. of John Stockbridge, had John,
b. 1659, d. young; and William, 1664; peThaps others. His w. d.

1699; William, 1700; Lydia, 1702; and perhaps more. He rem. to
Lebanon in 1710. John was gr.f. of the late Elisha Ticknor, Esq. of Bos

Spanish Literat.

wh. d. 1651, may have been s. of the first John, writ. Tead, and b. in
Eng. See Tead.
TIFF, TIFT, or TEFFE, WILLIAM, Boston 1638, the freem. of 2 June
1641, with his w. Ann, had join, the ch. 2 Aug. 1640, when the spelling
is Teffe, and he is call, tailor. His will of 1 May 1646, pro. 2 Nov.
1648, ment. w. Ann, d. Lydia, and br. John. The name is rare, and no
doubt various, spell, at differ, times and places. Stephen Tift was one
of the prisoners taken in Montgomery's attack on Quebec, 31 Dec. 1775.
J. K. Teift, Esq. an estim. mem. of the Georgia Hist. Soc. at Savannah,
was prob. an emigrant from R. I.
TIFFANY, HUMPHREY, Rehoboth 1663, by w. Eliz. had Sarah, b. 6
July 1683 ; was, I think, inhab. of Dover for some time, but k. 15 July

TILDEN. 301
TIFFT, ELIAS, a soldier of our ranks in Philip's war. JOHN, Ports
mouth, R. I. 1655, on the freemen's list that yr. In 1674 he was of
Kingstown, made his will, then, in wh. he names s. Samuel, Joshua, and
d. Tabitha, w. of Samuel Wilson. He was prob. br. of William Teffe or
Tift of Boston. JOSHUA, Providence, at Wickford, 1674, a renegado,
wh. hav. m. a Wampanoag, was true to the Ind. side, k. or wound, many
Eng. it was said, especial, at the gr. swamp fight, 19 Dec. 1675, taken
14 Jan. foil, by some Providence men, was soon execut. with a stigma
" that he had never heard a sermon but once for 14 yrs." See all the
contempo. reports of the war. He was s. of John, and so I presume was
SAMUEL, of Wickford 1674.
TILI>EN, JOHN, Scituate 1643, is sometimes perhaps giv. Tilten.
JOSEPH, Scituate, eldest s. of Nathaniel, b. in Eng. came in the Her
cules 1635, from Sandwich, with his f. wh. was of Tenterden in Co.
Kent, m. 20 Nov. 1649, Alice or Eliz. d. of John Twisden, had Nathan
iel, b. Sept. 1650; John, Dec. 1652; Rebecca, Feb. 1655; Joseph, 12
Feb. 1657, prob. d. young, as he is not ment. in the will of his f. ; Stephen,
14 May 1659; Samuel, 1660; Eliz. 1665; Lydia, 1666; and Benja
min 1668, wh. d. unm. at 25 yrs. He was deac. and d. in May 1670,
leav. good est. by will of 12 of that mo. to wid. Eliz. and the eight ch. by
name, and br. Stephen, and sis. Eliz. Garrett. But of this last some
doubt is felt, whether it mean more than Christian relationship, or per
haps the sec. w. of Richard G. wh. for his first, had Lydia, sis. of this
testat. NATHANIEL, Scituate, came in the Hercules 1635 from Sand
wich, in Co. Kent, being one of an old fam. at Tenterden, near Cran-
brook, in that shire, bring, w. Lydia, seven ch. and seven serv. He may
have visit, our country bef. and went home to bring his household ; but
it does not appear by any facts. In May 1637, with his friend Hatherly,
he was appoint, by Plymouth Col. to sett, the bounds betw. it and Mass.
He was rul. elder in the ch. and d. 1641, the inv. being of 31 July, and
his will of 25 May preced. in that yr. It names his w. Lydia, perhaps
d. of Thomas Bourne of Marshfield, yet m. in Eng. to wh. he gives his ho.
at Tenterden, all the seven ch. Joseph ; Thomas, b. a. 1621 ; Mary, the
w. of Thomas Lapham, m. 13 Mar. 1637; Sarah, the w. of George
Sutton ; Judith ; Lydia ; and Stephen ; also two serv. wh. should serve
his eldest s. Judith m. Abraham Preble, and Lydia m. Richard Gar
rett. NATHANIEL, Scituate, eldest s. of Joseph, d. 17 Dec. 1731. STE
PHEN, Marshfield, youngest s. of Nathaniel first, m. 15 Jan. 1662, Han

of Boston. THOMAS, Plymouth, one of the first comers, arr. 1623, by
the Ann, bring, prob. vv. and ch. at least he had Ids. for three rights
assign, that yr. but as none of this name had sh. in div, of cattle 1 627, and
no d. is suppos. to have occur, in the Col. for some yrs. after 1621, my
infer, is that he went home. Perhaps he was br. of the first Nathaniel ; but
most surely not, as Farmer thot. him, his s. THOMAS, Marshfield, prob.
s. of the elder Nathaniel, b. at Tenterden, Co. Kent, was old eno. in 1 643
to bear arms, when he liv. at Scituate ; at M. his w. Eliz. whose f. is not
ascert. d. or was bur. 12 Dec. 1663 ; and his d. Susanna was bur. 9 Sept.

July 1659; Bathshe'ba, b. 1649; Onesiphorus, 1651; and perhaps
others; was fined in Sept. 1640 for abs. from a jury ; but we can tell no
more of him esc. his d. 24 June 1694, aged 83, says Blake. Ruth m.
11 Dec. 1657, Richard Denton; and next Timothy Foster; and Bath-
sheba m. John Payson. THOMAS, Dorchester, s. of the preced. perhaps
(I dare not say prob.) b. in Eng. but the rec. allows us to kn. only that
he d. 11 Sept, 1718, aged a. 85 yrs. Whether he had w. and ch. is
uncert. Perhaps he was the author wh. compos, verses on the d. of John
Foster, 1681, as Thomas in his Hist, of Print, I. 277, tells. * TIMOTHY,
Dorchester, s. of the first Thomas, freem. 1666, m. 28 Apr. or 3 May
1659, Sarah, d. of James Bridgeman of Hartford, had Timothy, b. a.
1664; Eliz. 29 Mar. bapt, 1 Apr. 1666; Cornelius, 4 Sept. bapt. 4 Oct.

d..lO Aug. 1697, leav. large est. of wh. the mills have contin. in the
fam. until this time ; and the wid. d. 26 June 1712, aged 69.
TILL, or TYLLS, JAMES, Scituate 1643. PETER, Boston, a fisherman,
in whose youthful days the Ct. 1639 order, that he shall be taught sea
manship by his master, John Cloise or Cloyes ; m. 26 Feb. 1652, Eliz.
Nick ; and was liv. 1671, a carpenter.
TILLEY, EDWARD, Plymouth 1620, came with w. in the Mayflower,
and two ch. " their cousins," Henry Sampson, and Humility Cooper.
He and his w. d. the first winter. Humility went home and d. HUGH,
Salem, perhaps in 1629, as in Haz. I. 280, when he was serv. to Sir
Richard Saltonstall, certain, at Yarmouth 1638 and 43, being a witness
there to a will early in 1639, and enrol, to bear arms in the latter yr.
Clearly this man's name is by some read Hillier, ajid he d. 28 Jan.
1648; and his wid. m. 3 Nov. foil. Thomas Hucking. JOHN, Plymouth,
TILLINGHAST. 303
perhaps br. of Edward, came with w. and one ch. Eliz. in the Mayflower,
1620, and all (it was believ. by Shurtleffin Geneal. Reg. I. 52) d. next
winter. But his d. Eliz. wh. m. John Rowland outliv. all her fellow
passeng. exc. three wh. were younger. JOHN, Dorchester 1630, is prob.
the same, wh. was in 1624, engag. at Cape Ann, with Thomas Gardner,
in the oversight of that planta. freem. 4 Mar. 1635, and perhaps the
master of the coast, vessel, k. by the Ind. at Conn. riv. next yr. in Oct.
with circumst. of horrid cruelty, as in Winth. I. 200 is told. His wid.
cont. at D. NATHANIEL, emb. in the Abigail 1635, from London, aged
32, but I kn. no more of him. THOMAS, Plymouth 1643. WILLIAM,
Boston, is perhaps the passeng. in the Abigail from London 1635, aged
28, with Nathaniel, and may have been his br. perhaps was the Barn-
stable man 1643. In 1649, he had w. Alice, and was inhab. 1658 ; but
in 1665 was subject of complaint by w. Of Eliz. T. wh. in 1653 at
Springfield, m. Thomas Merrick, tho. from that union, the Tilley has
grown into a common baptism, prefix, it is, I fear, impossib. to find any
trace of parentage.
TILLINGHAST, BENJAMIN, Providence, s. prob. youngest of the first
Pardon, had three ds. of whose dates I hear nothing, nor names ; but it
is said that they m. Solomon Drown, Edward Kinnicutt, and Christo
pher Arnold, respective. JOHN, Providence, of whose descent I am ign.
had perhaps other ch. beside Mary, b. a. 1689, wh. m. 2 Nov. 1709,
Richard Ward. JOSEPH, Providence, br. of Benjamin, by first w. had
Paris; and by sec. w. Lydia, had Eliz.; Samuel; Nicholas, b. 26 May
1726 ; and Daniel ; to ea. of wh. I would gladly give dates. PARDON,
Providence, b. a. 1622, it is said, near Beachy Head on the coast of
Sussex, was sett, as Bapt. min. 1645. See Benedict, Hist. I. 478. He
built at his own exp. the first meeting-ho. and gave it to the soc. in 1711,
with the lot it stood on; and d. 29 Jan. 1718. By his sec. w. Lydia,
prob. d. of Philip Tabor of Tiverton, he had Pardon ; Philip ; Joseph, b.
1677; Benjamin; Mary; Abigail; Mercy, b. a. 1679; Hannah; and
Eliz. He d. 29 Jan. 1718 ; but he had three ch. by a former w. whose
names are unkn. Mary m. one of the numerous Carpenters at Pautuxet,
prob. a s. of William ; Abigail m. Nicholas Sheldon ; Mercy m. the third
Nicholas Power, as his sec. w. had nine ch. and d. 13 Nov. 1769, aged
91 ; Hannah m. a Hale of Swanzey; and Eliz. m. a Tabor of New
London. He is, I believe, founder of a long line, eight of wh. had, says
Farmer, been gr. at Brown Univ. in 1834. PARDON, Providence, s. of
the preced. rem. to East Greenwich, and had John, Joseph, and Philip,
beside one d. Mercy, w. of Peter Mawney, as from his will is learn.
That docum. names a great many gr.ch. PHILIP, Providence, br. of the
preced. m. 3 May 1692, Martha Holmes, prob. a gr.d. of persecut. Oba-

1716; and Mary, 16 Feb. 1718.
TILLOTSON, JOHN, Rowley, rem. to Newbury, m. 14 July 1648,
Dorcas, sis. of Thomas Coleman, wh. perhaps brot. her in the James
from Southampton 1635, arr. at Boston 3 June, had Mary, b. 13 Feb.
1650; John, 21 Feb. 1651.; and James, 19 Dec. 1652. His w. d. 1
Jan. 1655, and he m. 24 May foil. Jane Evans, had Philadelphia, 28
Sept. 1656; Joseph, 11 Jan. 1658; and Jonathan, 6 July 1659. As
Coffin tells no more of him, I judge that he rem. prob. to Conn. JOHN,
Saybrook 1671, prob. s. of the preced. liv. on the E. or Lyrne side of the
gr. riv. and was involv. with many of his townsmen in the quarrel with
New London people a. mowing the meadow internied. wh. led to mut.
indictms. as in Trumbull's Col. Rec. II. 558 appears. He m. 25 Nov.

JONATHAN, Lyme, perhaps br. of the preced. m. 10 Jan. 1683, Mary
Jones, had Jonathan, b. 26 Oct. 1684.

James Cole jr. is quite beyond my conject. as is the Jane, wh. m. 20
May 1662, Giles Richard the elder. EPHRAIM, Plymouth, perhaps br.
of the preced. m. 7 July 1666, Eliz. Hoskins, d. perhaps of William.
JOHN, Rowley 1643.
TILTON, ABRAHAM, Ipswich, the freem. of 1681, was perhaps s. of
William of Lynn, apprent. in 1653, to John Hood, wh. then being in
Eng. discharg. him, and he m. the same yr. or earlier, a d. (prob. Deliv
erance) of Roger Shaw of Hampton; in 1669 was of Kittery, and at I.
with w. made deeds of gift 1702, to s. Samuel and Isaac. His wid.
Deliverance, in her will of 9 Nov. 1730, pro. 2 July 1733, names s.
Abraham, Samuel, and .Isaac, ds. Sarah Martin, Mary, w. of Tristram
Brown, Rebecca, w. of Thomas Durges, whose former h. was John
Lamb, and Abigail Bell, dec. late w. of Robert Bell, formerly of John
Filmore. DANIEL, of Hampton or Exeter in 1689, was perhaps br. of
TIM — TIN 305
the preced. I conject. and m. 23 Dec. 1669, Mehitable Weare. Of one
Daniel, perhaps a s. more prob. gr.s. of William of Ipswich, with his br.
lieut. Jacob, striking proof of triumph, over Ind. captors in June 1722, is
told in Penhallow's Hist, with admirab. brevity; but much dilated in
verse, untutored as its subject, the heroic narrat. is contain, in Geneal.
Reg. II. 271. ISAAC, Pemaquid, a serg. at the fort, drown, there, 28
Mar. 1695, was br. of Abraham, as by his nuncup. will declar. JOHN,
Lynn, had John, b. 1642. J* PETEK, Windsor, perhaps s. of William of
Lynn, may never have been of Dorchester, yet early at W. and possib.
came with Rev. Ephraim Huit, there m. 10 May 1641, Eliz. whose sur
name is lost, had Eliz. bapt. 19 June 1642, wh. d. at 13 yrs; Mary, 18

TIPPETT, HENRY, Wickford, in the disput. territ. of Rhode Island,
claim, by Conn, made a constable 1670, by the latter power, tho. the

Humbly I would inq. if Mr. Trumbull, in the Index, making the name
Tibbots or Tibbets, had high authority for the spelling, or had followed
the similarity of Henry Tibbets in N. H. adher. to the Mass, jurisdict.
I submit the conject. that the true spell, was Lippet ; yet with so much
less confidence, as the Wickford man's name is found by Judd to be
Tipler.

1661; and Gideon, 16 July 1664; rem. to Weymouth, and may there
have had more ch. but failure for a long series of yrs. of town rec. denies
us certainty. WILLIAM, a tailor of New London, 1662, as Caulkins
says only trans, inhab. WILLIAM, Weymouth, s. of William of the same,
by w. Abigail, had William, b. 4 Aug. 1683; Samuel, 17 Nov. 1686;

TITE, HENRY, Boston 1655, m. 11 Feb. 1658, Sarah Walton, but I
kn. no more of either.
TITERTON, TITTERTON, or TYTTERTON, *|| DANIEL, was perhaps of
Boston 1643, when the ar. co. list includes such a name, with Samuel
instead of Daniel; but I suppose he rem. to Stratford bef. 1647; was
rep. 1647, 49, 52 and 54; and d. 1661. His will pro. 6 July of that
yr. names three s. Daniel, Timothy, and Samuel, of wh. Timothy is the
only ch. whose b. is on rec. at S. and that was 25 Mar. 1651. To these
he gives his est. and Ids. in Eng. beside some in N. E. Three ds. also
are ment. one, Wilcockson, perhaps the first w. of Timothy, and Mary,
and Eliz. unm. To these two £30 ea. beside £10 ea. for mar. dress.
His w. Jane outliv. him. Perhaps two of the s. went home to enjoy est.
there. DANIEL, Stratford, s. perhaps eldest, of the preced. b. in Eng.
had Mary, b. 11 June 1676, and perhaps others bef. He was one of
the sec, society of S. most of wh. rem. to Woodbury, but he did not ;
freem. 1669.
TITUS, ABIEL, Newtown, L. I. was s. of Robert. JOHN, Rehoboth, s. of
Robert, b. in Eng. came with his f. perhaps m. a d. of William Carpen
ter of the same, wh. in his will of Dec. 1659, makes bequest to his s.
But JOHN, Rehoboth, wh. m. 17 July 1673, Lydia Redway, had Lydia,
b. 1674, may be s. of preced. and his w. was bur. at R. 25 Nov. 1676.

Newtown, L. I. 1664, favor. Conn, jurisdict. and the name is much diffus.
SILAS, Rehoboth, had Silas, b. 12 Aug. perhaps 1679; Mary, 30 Mar.
1681. Sometimes it is writ. Tytus.
TOBEY, FRANCIS, in Mass, was fin. 1635, for something slight, £10,
but three yrs. aft. it was remit. JAMES, k. by the Ind. at Kittery 1705.
STEPHEN, perhaps of Portsmouth, N. H. m. 29 Nov. 1688, Hannah
Nelson. THOMAS, Sandwich 1650, m. 18 Nov. of that yr. Martha
Knott.
TODD, CHRISTOPHER, New Haven, was one of the orig. sett. 1639, a
propr. 1685, and d. next yr. had John, bapt. Dec. 1642; Samuel, 29
Apr. 1645; Mary, prob. 19 Sept. 1647; Grace, b. 15 Dec. 1650;
Michael, 18 June 1653; and Mercy, 18 Feb. 1656; the bapt. were in
right of his w. Grace. I wish the ch. rec. had been as accurate as that
of the town. His will of 25 Mar. 1686, names all the ch. but Mary, w.
of Isaac Turner was dec. Grace had m. Richard Mattock, wh. desert,
her ; and Mercy m. a Bassett, prob. John. * JOHN, Charlestown 1 637,
was, I think, one of the early sett, at Rowley, of which he was rep. 1664,
and 86; by w. Susanna, had John, b. 1655; Catharine, 1658; Thomas,
1665; Timothy, 1668; Samuel, 1670; James, 1672; prob. sev. others.

had Samuel, b. 1696 ; Abner, 1700 ; Daniel, 1706 ; and one d. WALTER,
Warwick, is among the freem. there 1655; and liv. 1673. He had m.
Margaret, wid. of Rufus Barton, but he left no ch. Of this name four
teen had in 1840 been gr. at Yale, and one at Harv.
TOE, SAMUEL, Newtown, L. 1. 1656, is by me suspected to be the same
as Coe, in the old writing the cap. T. and C. were so much alike.

of Yale names twelve gr. of this name, wh. is seen in the early rec.
sometimes without the last sylla.
TOMLYNS, THOMLINS, or TOMLINS, BENJAMIN, prob. at Lynn, came
in the Susan and Ellen, 1635, aged 18, from London, with ano. Edward,
30, from wh. I infer that they were brs. and likely to be s. of either the
first Edward or his br. *|| EDWARD, Lynn 1630, came, no doubt, in
the fleet with Winth. and was adm. freem. 18 May 1631, was rep. at

ter. MICAH, or MICHAEL, Wethersfield, rem. to Milford 1639, and
Lambert says he d. 1 649 ; but of that I find cause to doubt, for in Trum-
bull's Col. Rec. II. 513, may be seen verificat. in 1661 and 5 by Michael
T. of Milford, wh. must be thot. the same person, as only one with this
prefix is ment. for a long course of yrs. He rem. with a great comp. of
friends to New Jersey, 1666, and July 1667 bot. large tract from Ind.

May 1640, when the name is writ. Tapley, and d. 24 Dec. 1672, says
the valu. acco. in Geneal. Reg. V. 466, but it strangely contradicts

Rawlins. JONATHAN, Weymouth, prob. s. of William the first, by w.
Ruth, d. of George Fry of the same, had Mary, b. 25 Sept. 1675 ; Ruth,
17 Aug. 1679; Ann, 3 Mar. 1682; Jonathan, 24 May 1684; Joshua,
11 Nov. 1690; and perhaps others, where the rec. is defect. JOSEPH,
Rehoboth 1643, went to Newport in 1654 or earlier, was on the free
men's list 1655; with an assoc. met Dennison and Danforth, Mass.
Comsnrs. in 1664 at Rehoboth, a. some quest, of jurisdict. was a lieut,
and in 1670 sent with John Greene and others as comsnrs. to adjust
bounds with Conn. rul. elder of the ch. of John Clark, at the time of his
d. 1676. Perhaps he m. a d. wh. may have been the eldest, of that
John Greene, as by the Geneal. I have seen. JOSIAH, Medfield, freem.
1683, was, perhaps, s. of James the first of Scituate. MICAJAH, Wey
mouth, s. of the first William of the same, freem. 1672, by w. Susanna
had Micajah, b. 27 July 1673; Mary, 22 Mar. 1681 ; Susanna, wh. d.

with William and his s. Samuel to N. E. from Combe St. Nicholas in
Somersetsh. that he kn. them bef. and ever since ; and George Fiy unit.
in the fame testim. SAMUEL, Weymouth, eldest s. of William of the
same, was brot. in early youth, 1640, by his f. with Philip, perhaps his
uncle, perhaps a cousin, and tho. pass. thro, the first prescrib. course of
study for three yrs. would have tak. his A. B. in 1650, yet bee. the term
was lengthen, to 4 yrs. he and others, as Dr. Eliot in Biog. Diet, tells, left
the Coll. His f. had giv. him the first classic, preparat. and he had so
improv. his opportun. that he had great reput. as a min. and was ord. 14
Feb. 1665, to succeed Thomas Thatcher, hav. preach, some yrs. at Hull,
He preach, the elect, serm. 1674, again in 1683, again 1695, an honor in
no other instance confer, in Mass, and was so highly esteem, for his
discret. as to be chos. Presid. of the Coll. in 1681, aft. the d. of Oakes,
and again, aft. d. of Rogers ; but in his Hist, of H. C. notice of these
things by Mather is not found. However, it seems that the Gen. Ct.
Rec. V. 345, gave him the same encouragem. to accept, as they had offer.
to Increase Mather. Both applicat. were in vain. He m. 15 May
1657, Mary, d. of Edward Ilawson, when he liv. at Hull, and for sec. w.
30 July 1695, Mary, wid. of William Symmes, tho. what was her
maiden name is undiscov. Nor is my kn. any better as to childr. or
whether he had any. He was freem. 1669, and hav. preach, above 50
yrs. d. 21 Apr. 1707, aged 75. I suppose in 1703 he rec. a collea. in
Rev. James Bailey. See 1 Mass. Hist. Coll. IX. 195. * WILLIAM,
Weymouth 1640, came that yr. from Combe St. Nicholas, close to Chard,
in Co. Somerset, bring, s. Samuel, and accomp. by George Fry and
Philip T. wh. may have been his br. or near relat. here soon found a
sec. w. if as to me seems prob. the mo. of Samuel were 4« had Naomi, b. 3
Dec. 1641"; Mary, 3 Dec. 1642 ; Micajah, 12 Oct. 1643, unless as is very
prob. there be ^rror in the rec. print, in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 349. By
the fail, of rec. in a long interval, we lose perhaps half a dozen other ch.
certain. William and Jonathan. He was adm. freem. 18 May 1642,
rep. 1642, and very oft. aft. even 1679-83, and aft. overthrow of Andros
in 1690, was early lieut. and later capt. chos. elk. of the house of reps.
1650, and usual, aft. hav. as Johnson says, special qualificat. in that office.
His will of 15 May 1686, nam. eldest s. Samuel, and the others, Wil
liam, Micajah, Josiah, and Angel, was pro. July 1691. WILLIAM, Wey

John Winslow was made excor. names the five ch. to wh. he gives all

LIAM, is the first name on the list of passeng. in the Mary and John, wh.
took o. of alleg. 24 Mar. 1634, and as so many of his compan. over the
ocean sat down at Newbury aft. temper, resid. at Ipswich, we may be
justif. in think, that he did so ; and possib. he is ancestor of those wh.
gave high distinct, to this name near a century ago in that place.
Farmer marks in 1834, that nine of this name had been gr. at Yale,
three at Harv. and eight at other N. E. coll. most at Dart.

not prob. for in TrumbulPs Col. rec. I find not his name in that relat.

was not, as oft. said, an early sett, at M. certain, not bef. 1647, was an
Assist, of the New Haven Col. 1659, wh. rank of course, was not contin.
aft. the union with Conn, where, tho. on withdraw, of his f. from that
office in the older Col. 1665, he was put in nominat. but did not gain the
honor until 1673, yet had the compliments of being a capt. and rep.
under the new admin, in Philip's war, was command.-in-chief, and in
1676, when Leete was chos. Gov. aft. d. of Winthrop, he was made
Dept. Gov. was oft. a commissnr. of the Unit. Col. of N. E. and aft. d.
of Leete 1683, succeed, him as Gov. By the royal constitution of Sir
Edmund Andros, to be head of all the Northern provinces, T. was nam.
one of his council, and tho. he did not resist, but acquiesced, he was
hailed Gov. on the overthr. In that place he serv. 15 yrs. retir. from
old age, and d. 12 July 1710, aged 88. Lambert marks his d. 1712.
He had two ws. Jane, only d. of Edmund Tapp, wh. d. 8 Apr. 1703 ;
and he m. 22 Oct. 1705, a wid. Eliz. Bryan, wh. d. 10 Jan. 1706. It is
said he had 21 ch. (and very glad should I be to prove above half of the
tradit. num.) but ten only have been heard of by me ; viz. Samuel, bapt.
3 Sept. 1648, H. C. 1669 ; John, 20 Oct. 1650; Mary, 23 May, not 28
(as my correspond, writes), 1652, bee. this was Friday, and ch. in our
country, without except, in that age, were bapt. on Sunday only ; Robert,
b. 14 Aug. 1654; Sarah, 9 Oct. 1656; Hannah, 1 Jan. 1660, wh. m.
Rev. Samuel Mather of Windsor; Joseph, a. 1662; Abigail, wh. m.
Rev. Samuel Andrew of Milford ; beside Jane, and Ann, wh. d. bef.
their f. If any respect for tradit. would solicit explana. of its giv. twenty-
one ch. to the Gov. it may be guessed to have sprung from the fact, that
his ch. add. to the ten of the first w. of s. Samuel made up the desired
number. Being above 83 yrs. old, when he took his sec. w. none by
her was expect. Very observa. is it that in Goodwin's Geneal. Notes,
229, after the heading, " Descend, in the line of Robert," not one is giv.
wh. must be regard, as a misfortune attending Goodwin's d. bef. one
eighth of the vol. was print, for he was not the man to be frightened by
such a mythical host. On p. 328 the list that was intend, to be insert,
and may perhaps now seem imperfect, is found, and some error is seen,
if the Milford rec. be correct. The Gov. in his will of 5 Jan. 1708,
names only these seven ch. Samuel, John, Mary, Robert, Hannah,
Joseph, and Abigail. No doubt the other three were d. and prob. the
date of Abigail's b. in Goodwin is wrong. SALMON, Preston, s. of the
328 T R E
first James, ord. the first min. at that place, 16 Nov. 1698, had m. 28
Apr. preced. Dorothy, d. of Rev. James Noyes of Stonington ; had Ann,

Chapin writes it 28, prob. wrong, Aug. 1704 ; Sarah, 21 Jan. in ano.
place, July 1707 ; and Mary, 9 Jan. 1710. He was a lieut. and engag.
in promot. separat. from Wethersfield of the new town. He d. 17 Feb.
1713 ; and his wid. d. 1757. In 1837 the gr. at Yale counted eight, at
Harv. four.
TREBY, TREBIE, or TRIBBY, JOHN, Marblehead 1668-74, had w.

TREFETHEN, HENRY, New Hampsh. serv. on gr. jury 1687.
TREFRY, TREFREY, TURFREY or TURFREE, * GEORGE, York, must
have been a high patriot, for he was chos. rep. 1692. John, Boston, was
assoc. somehow with the unpopular, of Gov. Andros, for he was seized
by the people wh. imprison. Sir Edmund 1689. THOMAS, Marblehead

TRESCOTT, JOHN, Dorchester, s. of William of the same, freem. 1683,

aged 88. The newspaper of that yr. ment. that the h. and w. liv.

tendency to exagger. age, his gr.st. is an example, mak. him in 91st yr.

William, had Dyer; Samuel, b. 27 Apr. 1675; Jeremiah, 6 Oct. 1676;

THOMAS, Salem, was adm. of the ch. 15 Dec. 1639, freem. 27 Dec. 1642,

Phelps, for John P. gr.s. of Elinor T. is nam. in the Probate Ct. connect,
with Phelps est. He was elk. in 1650 of the market. From the will
of his wid. Elinor 15 Feb. 1655, abst. in Essex Inst. I. 48 we learn that
she had s. Henry, Nicholas, and Edward, two ds. and gr.ch. John Phelps
and Eliz. Samuel, and Edward, ch. of Nicholas ; and that her late h. had
a d. in Eng.
TRESWELL, HENRY, Salisbury, by w. Martha, had Sarah, b. 26 July
1686.
TREVETT, TREVY, or TRIVITT, HENRY, Marblehead 1646-74.
THOMAS, Marblehead 1674, may have been s. of the preced.
TREVORE, or TREVOUR, WILLIAM, Plymouth, came in the Mayflower

the serv. of the conip. aft. her ret. to Eng. and for a single yr. He went
28*
330 TRE— TRI
home next yr. in the Fortune ; and may have been a navigator in com
mand of a sh. to our shore in 1632. He was here in Apr. 1650 [see
Geneal. Reg. IX. 248], and gave depon. as to the taking possessn. by
hims. for David Thompson of London, of Thompson's isl. mistak. the yr.

TRICKEY, or TRICKETT EPHRAIM, Dover, perhaps s. of Thomas of
the same, had Joseph, wh. obtain, a lot of Id. 1701. FRANCIS, by
Farmer in MS. mark, of Portsmouth 1655, means, I think, Thomas.
ISAAC, Dover 1670, was perhaps s. of Thomas. JOSEPH, Dover, s. of
Thomas, had w. Rebecca, to wh. as his brs. wid. Zechary gave some Id.
2 Feb. 1709. THOMAS, Dover 1648, by Farmer in MS call, of Exeter
1644, d. 1675 ; leav. s. Zechary, and Joseph, perhaps, also, Isaac and
Ephraim. ZECHARY, Dover, s. of Thomas, was call. sen. 1709, so that he
may have had s. Zechary. This name is frequent in that neighborhood.
TRILL, THOMAS, Hartford 1664, then a serv. a soldier in Conn,
forces, 1675, of wh. I kn. only that he was fined for unseason. firing of
his gun, had w. Ann, prob. s. Thomas, and d. 1700.
TRIMMINGS, OLIVER, Exeter 1644, had w. Susanna.
TRINER, THOMAS, Marblehead 1674; but I doubt the spell, may
mean Tainer, wh. see.
TRIPP, ABIEL, Portsmouth, R. I. perhaps s. of John of the same, m. 30
Jan. 1679, Deliverance Hall, perhaps d. of William of the same, had
.Abiel, b. 22 June 1684; and the f. d. 10 Sept. foil. * JOHN, Portsmouth,

TRISTRAM, or TRUSTRUM, BENJAMIN, Saco, s. of Ralph, was d. in
Apr. 1679, when Francis Hooke took admin. RALPH, Saco 1647, adm.
freem. of Mass. 1655, had been constable 1653, appoint, by our author
ity, was much respect, and d. 1678. Dominicus Jordan, his s.-in-law, had
admin, on the f. and s. Nathaniel, both in Apr. 1679. His ch. b. betw.
1644 and 64 were Samuel, Nathaniel, Benjamin, Richard, Rachel, Ruth,
Freegrace, Hannah, wh. m. Dominicus Jordan, and David. But Folsom,
180, was not so happy as to be able to give particulars.
TROOP, WILLIAM, Barnstable, m. 14 May 1666, Mary, d. of Ralph
Chapman, had Mary b. 6 Apr. 1667 ; and prob. others, certain. Thomas,

by letter fr. London, gave his w. Catharine power to sell his est. here.
TROTT, BERNARD, Boston 1665, merch. for ten yrs. here. ELIAS,
Wethersfield 1645, may have been s. of Richard. JAMES, Dorchester,
s. of the first Thomas, d. 27 Sept. 1719, by the inscript. on the gr.st.
JOHN, perhaps of Wethersfield, serv. on jury 1642. JOHN, Nantucket,
by the rec. had Tabitha, b. 2 Mar. 1679 ; Joseph, 10 Mar. but in ano.
place said to be Apr. 1681 ; Rachel, 23 Aug. 1683 ; but in ano. place it

James, 20 Jan. 1688; Mary, 31 Oct. 1690; Abigail, 8 June 1693; and
Priscilla, 11 Mar. 1697. JOHN, Dorchester, s. of Thomas of the same,
liv. at Milton, m. 20 Dec. 17Q3, Deliverance, wid. of Joseph Withington.
MATTHIAS, defdt. in a suit 1646, but in my opinion is just as likely to
mean Treat. * RICHARD, Wethersfield 1642, and thenceforward this
surname occurs so oft. especial, on the gr. jury 1643, and as rep. every sin
gle yr. fr. 1644 to 1658, but without the baptismal prefix, in Trumbull's
Col. Rec. perhaps in 50 or 60 places, when Richard Treat is found so
seldom, that I doubt not this may be freq. substitut. SAMUEL, Dor
chester, s. of the first Thomas, d. 3 Aug. 1724. SIMON, Wells, was sw.
freem. of Mass. 1653. THOMAS, Dorchester, freem. 1644, had Thomas ;

TROUT, WILLIAM, sw. fidel. to Mass, at Pemaquid, 1674.
TROW, HENRY, Ipswich, or more prob. Salisbury, freem. 1676. I

TROWBRIDGE, CALEB, New Haven, s. of the sec. Thomas, had w.

THOMAS, New Haven 1640, had, says tradit. first sat down at Dorches
ter, coming from Taunton, in Co. Somerset, a. 1637, but was prosecut.
voyages to and from Barbadoes. I think he was of Combe St. Nicho
las, only a. 10 or 12 ms. S. E. from Taunton, near the borders of Devon.
More reasona. import, is ano. pt. of the tradit. that he brot. three s.
Thomas, assumed to have been b. 1632; William, a. 1634; and James,
bef. ment. Whether he was ever resid. in Dorchester is uncert. but a.
1644, he went home, leav. his boys to the care of serg. Thomas Jeffreys,

the common law. WILLIAM, New Haven, s. of Thomas the first, b. in
Eng. m. 9 Mar. 1657, Eliz. Selivant, wid. of Daniel, d. of Capt. George
Lamberton, had William, b. 12 Nov. foil.; Thomas, 2 Oct. 1659 ; Eliz.

Mallory ; Margaret in. a Goodwin ; and Hannah m. a Jackson. WIL

young; was selectman, lieut. and d. 19 Nov. 1744. Farmer, MS. notes
that in 1834, two of this name had been gr. at Harv. two at Yale ; but
very curious is the fact, that rec. of town and ch. at Haddam, where one
branch of the surname spread, both give it Strawbridge.
TRUANT or TROUANT, JOSEPH, perhaps s. of Maurice, Marshfield, m.
6 Jan. 1675, was drown, on enter. Plymouth harbor, a. 23 Feb. 1684.
MAURICE, Duxbury 1643, had possib. first been at Watertown, and in
1631, was fin. for stealing pig's meat of Ralph Glover; perhaps only a
youthful peccadillo ; in few yrs. rem. to Marshfield. there had fam. of wh.
I think, were Joseph; perhaps Hannah, wh. m. 11 Jan. 1682, Jonathan
Eames ; and also Mehitable, wh. m. 3 Sept. 1691, John Daggett; and
he d. 21 Apr. 1685.
TRUE, HENRY, Salem 1644, had John, bapt. 13 July 1645 ; Mary, 14
Mar. 1647; Lydia, 4 Feb. 1649; Joseph, 8 Feb. 1652; Benjamin, 19
Feb. 1654; Jemima, 26 Apr. 1657. His w. was Israel, d. of John Pike,
unless the books have mistak. her name ; and he rem. prob. to Salis
bury ; was the freem. of 1676, spell. Trew, and read Trow. * HENRY,
Salisbury, s. of the preced. m. 15, or 16 by ano. rec. Mar. 1668, Jane, d.

and Jabez, 19 Feb. 1683. He was rep. 1689. JOSEPH, Salisbury, br.

had Joseph, b. 9 Jan. 1676, prob. d. young; John, 18 Aug. 1677, d. in 4
mos. ; Joseph, again, 4 Mar. 1679; Ruth, 5 Oct. 1683; Israel, whether
male or fern. I kn. not, 14 Dec. 1687; and Benjamin, 5 Mar. 1691. He
took o. of alleg. 15 Dec. 1677, and was freem. 1690.
TRUESDALE, TRUSDELL, TREWSDALE TREUSDALE, or TRUESDALL,
RICHARD, Boston, call, on join, the ch. 27 July 1634, serv. to our teacher
John Cotton, freem. 4 Mar. foil. serv. in 1639 on the coroner's inq. on dead
body'of Peter Fitchew, wilful, drown, and next yr. on the more import,
jury for trial of Hugh Bewett for heresy. He had no eh. prob. but his w.
is, I suppose, meant in two letters of our first Gov. Winth. to his s. John,
Nov. 1646, mention that his s. Wait was with sis. T. That phrase led
Farmer to write of Richard T. " perhaps br.-in-law of Gov. Winthrop."
By similar misunderstand, of the word sis. the descend, of Samuel
Symonds suppos. they were of the same blood of John Winth. of Conn,
whose only sis. that passed infancy was first w. of Samuel Dudley,
not Symonds. He was a butcher, and deac. of the first ch. but revolted
at the disingen. managem. by wh. Davenport was brot. from New Haven,
to be the min. and bee. one of the founders of the third or O. S. ch. in
1669, and d. 1671, leav. wid. Mary. SAMUEL, Cambridge, neph. of the
preced. from wh. by his will he rec. £50, m. 1671, Mary, d. of John
Jackson, first, of the same, had Richard, b. 16 July 1672 ; Mary, 3 Nov.
1673; Samuel, 13 Oct. 1675; Mindwell, 31 Aug. 1676; Rebecca, 25
Mar. 1678 ; Experience; Thomas, 27 Apr. 1682; and Ebenezer, 1685.
He was freem. 1685, liv. on S. side of the riv. in what was call. Cam
bridge vil. now Newton, for separat. of wh. he was active ; had sec. w.
Eliz. wid. of George Woodward, d. of Thomas Hammond of Watertown ;
and a third w. Mary is nam. in his will. He d. says Jackson, 2 Mar.
1695, in 49th yr. wh. makes me concur with the diligent and judicious
author of the Hist, of N. in suppos. tho. ign. of the name of his f. that he
was b. in our country. Under this name, Farmer had includ. John and
John jr. of Kittery 1652 ; but I follow the rec. in spell, them Twisclale.
TRULL, JOHN, Billerica, m. 11 Dec. 1657, Sarah, d. of William
French, had John, b. 13 Jan. 1659, d. in few days; Sarah, 27 May
1660; was freem. 1690, then call. sen. so that perhaps he had John,
again, and other ch. He d. 15 June 1704, aged 70. SAMUEL, Billerica,
perhaps br. of the preced. is on the tax list of 1679, when the name of
John is not seen.

TKUMBULL, TRUMBALL, TRUMBOLL, TRUMBLE, TRUMBELL, or TRUM-
MELL, DANIEL, Lynn, 1647, as Lewis marks, but adds not a word more.
JOHN, Cambridge 1636, said to have come from Newcastle on Tyne, was
fin. £20 at the court, Mar. 1637, but for some cause so slight that it
might have found lighter censure, as in June foil, three quarters of the
penalty were taken off, and, at the general show of similar favor in 1638,
£4 more were remit. Perhaps he is the sec. freem. of this name 13
May 1640, but in rec. giv. Thrumball. By w. Eliz. had Eliz. 6 June
1638; John, 4 Aug. 1641; Hannah, 10 Dec. 1642; rem. to Charles-
town, there had Mary, 3, but ano. rec. says 9 Feb. 1645 ; besides that on
Cambridge rec. comes, also, James, 7 Dec. 1647. He was capt. of a
trading vessel, and may have been the man in the Col. Rec. of Conn. I.
162, willing to accept Matthew Griswold's oath to his demand in 1648,
and prob. the one meant by Davenport in Epist. to Gov. Winth.
1655, as bring, him letters from Eng. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 7.
He was a shopkeep. in Charlestown 1673, a householder in 1678, and d.
leav. wid. Eliz. early in July 1687, in his 80th yr. the inv. being tak. on
6 of that mo. and ret. by his s. John 19 Aug. foil. The wid. d. 15 Aug.
1696 in 86th yr. His d. Hannah m. 2 Mar. 1659 John Baxter. JOHN,
Roxbury 1639, when in ch. rec. the spell, is Trumell, wh. caused a very
experienced reader of early writ, to make it Trumtell, freem. 13 May
1640j is no more heard of at R. and, I think, was very soon at Rowley,
there m. Ann, perhaps d. of the first Richard Swan, d. 1657, bur. 18
July. His inv. was by w. Ann brot. 29 Sept. and he left John, Joseph,
Judah, and perhaps more. The s. John is made the progenit. of the
great Conn. fam. and the common error found support in the Appx.
to the Centen. Addr. by Bradford. The older s. stuck by the paternal
mansion. JOHN, Rowley, s. prob. of the preced. freem. 1665, m. prob. a
d. of William Jackson, of R. and made cleac. 24 Dec. 1686, was appoint,
ens. there by the Gen. Ct. 1685. JOHN, Charlestown, s. of the first
John, m. 26 Sept. 1665, Mary, d. of Edward Jones, had Samuel, wh. was
bapt. 25 July 1697 a. 14 yrs. old. He serv. in Mosely's comp. Dec. 1675.
JOSEPH, Sufneld 1677, s. prob. of the first John of Rowley, freem. 1681,
as early as July 1675, liv. in Sufneld, from wh. the Ind. hostil. soon
drove him, there had Joseph, b. 16 Jan. 1679; Ammi, 1 Aug. 1681;
Benoni, 10 Aug. 1684 ; beside some bef. he rem. to S. of wh. prob. Han
nah, wh. m. 26 Nov. 1686, John Strong, the third, was one, as also John.
His s. Joseph m. Hannah, d. of John Higley of Simsbury; rem. to
Lebanon, and was f. of the first Gov. Jonathan, b. 1710, H. C. 1727, a
TRU — TUC 337
disting. patriot. JUDAH, Rowley, perhaps s. of the first John of the
same, rem. to Suffield a. 1676, had a w. Mary, and ch. John, b. 5 Mar.
1674; Ebenezer, 1 Aug. 1675, d. soon; Joseph, 3 Jan. 1677; Judah, 2
Jan. 1679; Mary, 20 Mar. 1681; William, 9 July 1683; Samuel, 1
June 1685; and Ephraim, 6 July 1688; and d. 1 Apr. 1692. His wid.
Mary 22 Dec. 1692, bee. third w. of Vicary Sikes. RALPH, Marshfield
1643, may possib. be a miswrit. surname, Trumle. Of this name, ten
have been gr. at Yale, and five at Harv.
TRUSTRUM. See Tristram.
TRY, or TRAY, MICHAEL, Windsor, freem. 1640, freed in 1660 from
watch and ward, had sev. yrs. bef. rem. to Fairfield, had only ch. Sarah,
wh. m. John Gruman. To her and her childr. he gave most of his est.
wh. was very considerab. when he d. 1676 or 7. He had above 20 yrs.
earlier m. for sec. w. Margaret, wid. of Richard Roots of F.
TUBES, SAMUEL, New London a. 1663, m. Mary, d. of Isaac Willey,
but Miss Caulkins in letter of July 1860 tells me, that he had Mary and
Bethia, bapt. on same day in May 1671 ; Samuel, July 1672 ; William,
May 1674 (and I regret that the days of the several mos. are uncert.) ;
Dorcas, b. 2 Mar. 1689 ; Joseph, 3 Sept. 1692 ; perhaps other ch. and d.
1696. His wid. was liv. 1725, then aged 77. WILLIAM, Plymouth
and Duxbury, m. 9 Nov. 1637, Mercy d. of Francis Sprague, and was
one of the proprs. of Bridge water.
TUCKE, or TEWK, EDWARD, Hampton, s. of Robert, perhaps b. in
Eng. had John, if the acco. of Congr. min. in Rockingham Co. by Rev.
William Cogswell, Geneal. Reg. I. 247, be correct (wh. disagrees with
Farmer MS.), d. a. 1653. * JOHN, Hampton, s. of Robert, says Farmer,
by w. Bethia had John, b. 19 Apr. 1687, prob. d. young; Jonathan,
Aug. 1697; John, again, 23 Aug. 1702, H. C. 1723, min. at Isle of
Shoals, wh. d. 12 Aug. 1773, leav. John, H. C. 1758. He was rep.
1717, and d. 4 Jan. 1742. ROBERT, Watertown, came prob. in 1636,
from Gorleston, Co. Suffolk, two ms. S. of Yarmouth, was freem. 7 Sept.
1639, but then was of Hampton, perhaps, where was his perman. resid.
in latter days, though he may have been entit. a tailor of Salem at one
time, was fin. for sell, beer, soon aft. had license for the first inn at H.
1643, and d. 4 Oct. 1664, leav. wid. Joanna, wh. d. 14 Feb. 1673, by

1668; Edward, bef. ment. ; Robert; William, b. a. 1646; and John,
1652. Robert and William prefer, to live in Eng. THOMAS, Salem
1637, was then a. 25 yrs. aid, if his memo, thirty yrs. later be true.
THOMAS, Charlestown, by w. Eliz. d. of lieut. Randall Nichols, had Mary,

WILLIAM, Milford, a propr. bef. 1675, rein, a few yrs. aft.
TUCKER, ABRAHAM, and JOHN, early proprs. of Dartmouth, may have
been s. of Henry of Sandwich. ANDREW, Marblehead 1663, was perhaps
s. of Nicholas, and may be the man, whose name in the petitn. of Mar
blehead 1668, is giv. Stocker in Geneal. Reg. IX. 82. BENJAMIN, Rox-

1675; Ephraim, 16 Aug. 1677; Ebenezer, 10 Oct. 1679; Mary, 7 Aug.

may have been mo. of all the preced. had Joseph, 2 Nov. 1686; and by
w. Ann, wh. I think the same, as the rec. is very careless, had Eliz. 20
Dec. 1688. He d. 27 Feb. 1714, aged a. 60, as the gr.stone tells. BE-
NONI, Salisbury, eldest s. of Maurice, m. June 1686, Ebenezer, d. of
Thomas Nichols, strange as the rec. reads, had Ebenezer, b. 31 Mar.
1687 ; Benjamin, 12 Jan. 1690 ; Nathaniel, 12 Nov. 1692 ; Eliz. 24 Mar.
1695 ; and Mary, 4 May 1697. EPHRAIM, Milton, s. prob. of Robert of
the same, was freem. 1678, and perhaps had w. and ch. GEORGE, Mar
blehead 1653, a fisherman. HENRY, Sandwich, by w. Martha, had, as the

Tolman, had, in 1678, a suit with the town of Dorchester, wh. gather, from
him and others taxes, wh. the Gen. Ct. req. the town to repay. Prob. he
had James, and perhaps others. JAMES, of some part of New Hampsh.
perhaps Portsmouth or Dover, in each were fains, of the name, in 1689,
when he join, other friends of liberty, in addr. the governm. of Mass, to
protect them. JOHN, Watertown 1636, a propr. and perhaps the same
man was next yr. at Hingham, propr. in ea. town, m. June 1649 wid.
Norton, it may be as his sec. w. and d. 5 Aug. 1661, making nuncup.

Dec. 1675, and T. may have fallen also, for I kn. no more of him.

Samuel, Y. C. 1728, but the date of his b. I find not. He is absurdly
said to have begun the settlem. on E. side of the gr. riv. 1677, when
there were dwellers there, 20 yrs. bef. and so much had it gr. that in
1 680, petitn. was offered for its incorpo. as separ. town. He d. 6 July
1727. Farmer notes, that in 1834, five of this name had been gr. at
Harv. and three at Yale.
TUELLS, RICHARD, and THOMAS, were of Gallop's company 1690,
but perhaps were truly Twelves, s. of Robert.
TUFTS, JAMES, k. by the Ind. at Bloody brook, 18 Sept. 1675, may
have been a soldier of the flower of Essex. JOHN, Hingham, was from
Old Hingham, came in the Diligent, 1638, as one of the serv. or apprent.

TUKBAT, or TURBUTT, PETER, in the list of those, sw. to alleg. at
Wells, 5 July 1653, constable 1661, had w. Sarah, ch. John, Peter, and
Eliz. His inv. was of £61, present. 14 Oct. 1669. But this name
means Talbot, I think.
TURBEFIELD, HENRY, Weymouth, had Ann, b. 8 Sept. 1673. I have
some doubt of the name.
TURELL, COLBURN, Boston, s. of capt. Daniel, was one of the volun

Hope or Moses, and Dr. Stiles found his name, tho. I doubt a mistake in

and Miriam, 22 Feb. 1698, but this last at Weymouth, where, being a
sea-capt. he may have been engag. in build, a vessel. His last voyage
was in 1703, when he was tak. by a Barbary corsair, and no more heard
of. Perhaps he was k. at the capt. but a fam. tradit. is ment. that he d.
at sea. His w. took admin. 12 May 1704. THOMAS, Derby, s.. of Wil
liam of Milford, d. 1704, without fam. and his est. went to his brs. Wil
liam and John, sis. Mary Palmer, Eliz. Palmer, Abigail Rundell, and
Hannah Tyler. There is a tradit. prob. of no value, that this Thomas
was lost in the same way, 1695, as his f. of course when he was 10 yrs.
old. WILLIAM, New Haven, took o. of fidel. 7 Apr. 1657, rem. to Mil-

zah, 1671, d. soon ; Ephraim, 1676 ; and Ruth, 1678. But on the prob.
rec. some discrepancy of names is seen, when the inv. is brot. in, as the
oldest ch, appears, Mary, 32 yrs. ; Eliz. Palmer, 29 ; Abigail Rundle,
28 ; William, 27 ; John, 25 ; Sarah (perhaps the tw. call. Mary), 21 ;
Hannah, 20 ; and Thomas (wh. perhaps was first call. Ephraim), 18.

of the same, had four s. Thomas, H. C. 1730 ; William, H. C. 1733 ;
Royal, H. C. 1743 ; and Joseph ; beside d. Sarah. For this name, of
wh. Farmer found the gr. in 1834, to be ten at Harv. eight at Yale, and
eight at the other N. E. coll. oft. is found mistake of Tyley, or even
Tilley.

after stood the friend of our people. He was among the chief men in
the great civil war, and too conscientious or too ambitious to comply
with Cromwell, wh. secur. him in prison as he did so many others of the
republican party ; yet one of the few after the death of the protector, wh.
did not feel the necessity of the restorat. of the monarchy, for wh. he was
turned out of the ho. as one wh. had not been constant to parliament
privileges. Maidstone, a sincere commonwealth's man, in his letter to
Winth. writ, but a few weeks bef. the universal outbreak of enthusiasm
for Charles II. explains the pleasure of the people at this dishonor to
Vane, by add. that he was " unhappy in lying under the most catholick
prejudice of any man I know." See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 196. Being
exempt from the gen. pardon in the Act of indemnity, that may well
seem bad policy, he was execut. 14 June 1662, after a conviction wh. did
not benefit the royal cause, so much as it exalt, the suffer. Nothing in
life became him like the losing of it. How faithful adher. to principle
tho. esteem, erron. will surely be val. is shown in the history of his
descend. The only s. was ennob. by William III. and the rank in the
peerage was, for his lineal offspr. 3d Lord Barnard, raised to an Earldom,

short time at Roxbury, and soon fixed at Scituate, in ano. jurisdict. and
join, the ch. of John Lothrop, 28 Nov. 1636. He seems to have differ,
from Mass, policy, especially after the triumph of the latitudinarians at
home, wh. desired freedom of worship ; but as he could not bring many
to his opinions, went home again in the sh. with Child, Fowle, and per
haps others discontent, as hims. rem. to Barbadoes, there d. bef. 1 655.
He was s. of John, alderman of London, wh. had gain, high reput. for ex
ertions in organiz. resist, to the Spanish Armada, 1588. Mortifying is
the ignorance that represents this fain, as coming in the reign of James
and Charles I ; and that Miss Thomas copied such authority is to be refer,
to the opposite of a common error, that unduly magnifies ancient renown.

the king in the Charter, was too rich, and much absorb, in the line of his
traffic at London, to come to the Id. of the Pilgrims. Seven of this
name had been gr. at Harv. 1771. We owe much to Harris's Cam

Salem, with w. whose name is not found, join, the ch. 1650, but as Felt
I. 176 makes him to be a freem. aft. 1635, I cannot doubt that the sound
and spelling Vincen, justify my calling him Vinson, as below. But the
adm. as freem. was on 10 May 1643. WILLIAM, New London, had
prob. liv. at Gloucester, there m. Rachel, d. of William Varney ; did not
improve the grant made him at N. L. in 1651, but was of Providence in
May 1666, when he engag. his alleg. to Charles II. and m. 31 May
1670, Priscilla, d. of William Carpenter, perhaps as sec. w. and by a,
former one may have had Joanna wh. m. John Sheldon. It hardly
seems possib. however, with every readiness to acknowl. the migrat.
habits of our people, even in the earliest days, to admit this man to be
the same as preced.
VINE, WILLIAM, Charlestown, by w. Eliz. d. of Richard Harrington,

VINES, RICHARD, Saco, had, in explorat. for Sir Ferdinando Gorges,
very early visit, our coast. Belkn. thinks bef. 1615, but prob. made no
perman. settlem. bef. 1636, tho. his name is forged as a witness to the
deed of 17 May 1629, pretend, to be made by sev. Ind. chiefs to Rev.
John Wheelwright, when he was in Eng. and Vines may well be thot. to
be there too. He was much esteem, in the Col. and dept.-gov. in 1644 ;
one of the very earliest travel, to the White mountains, wh. he visit, in
the last week of Aug. 1642, was by the people chos. dept.-gov. "for our
peace and safety" in Oct. 1645, and rem. to Barbadoes in 1646. WIL

1699, perhaps more. Nicholas, in Farmer's MS. is call, of Mass, but no
VIN — VOD 375
more is ment. except that he was b. 1624. THOMAS, Martha's Vineyard,
ace. incoher. traclit. was one of the first four sett, there, but I doubt the
whole story. WILLIAM, Gloucester, freem. 10 May 1643, by w. Sarah,
wh. d. 4 Feb. 1660, had Sarah; and Hannah, both bef. he was at G. ;
Eliz. b. 1:6 May 1644 ; John, 15 May 1648 ; William, 1651, wh. d. 9 Dec.

VINTON, BLAISE, Lynn, or Maiden, youngest s. of John the first, was
on serv. in Philip's war 1675 and 6, but aft. very diligent search, the
scrupul. author of the Vinton Memo, could say no more of him ; yet he
makes Lydia, d. of the sec. John Hayden m. a Vinton, and as the only
elder brs. John and William he supplied with wives of other names, my
conject. may be indulg. that this Blaise got that Lydia, tho. no ch. is kn.

WADDOCK, HENRY, Saco, wh. was of the gr. jury 1645, own. alleg. to
Mass. 1653, as in Col. Rec. IV. part I. is the same person nam. Mad-
docks or Mattocks, and wh. is better spelling, I dare not undertake to
decide, without personal inspect, of the initial letter in the orig. When
Paige and Shurtleff agree in read, ancient record, it may be safe eno. to
follow. The strangeness of such a name might decide it adversely to
the W. but the diligence of Folsom, in his admir. hist, of Saco, 124, shows
that the exact truth of the patronymic is Warwick. See that.
WADE, HENRY, Hingham 1652. * JONATHAN, Ipswich, had come in

more. His w. d. 29 Nov. 1678, and he d. 1684, was bur. says Sewall's
almanac, 8 Nov. His will pro. 8 July 1686, by Presid. Dudley in
Boston, had been made in London so long bef. as 17 June 1657, and was
witness, by Sir William Peake, and Samuel Sedgwick, whose hands
were s\v. to by John Richards, correspond, of Sir William, and by a
correspond, of Sedgwick, and also his wid. It provides for w. Susanna,
and the childr. but names only the eldest Jonathan, to wh. he gives all his
Id. in parish of Denver, Co. Norfolk, on W. side, one mile from Down-
ham market. We may then infer, that was his native place. The d.

the Gov's. d. is nam. Mary) had at Charlestown, Nathaniel, b. 13, bapt.
20 July 1673; so that the date of b. in Gerieal. Reg. IX. 121 is easy
mistake, very frequent, obs. in read, old rec. 5 for 3 ; Simon and Susanna,

Feb. 1687, d. young; and we kn. other ch. (from Hinrnan 323) to have
been Ichabod ; Hannah ; and Jonathan, again. His sec. w. was periMips_
Eliz. d. of the sec. John Talcott. But he is most rememb. with gratitude
in our times, as the preserver of the charter, in opposit. to the demand of
the royal Gov. by the perilous expedient of extinct, of the lights in the
Council chamber, 31 Oct. 1687, and hiding the parchment in the great
oak. He m. late in life, Mary, d. of John Blackleach, the younger, wh.

1676, going to relief of Sudbury on a sudden assault by the enemy, was
overpower, by numbers, and with his lieut. Sharpe of Brookline, and
half his comp. cut off* 21 Apr. Yet many authorities gave the date 18.
The matter seems stated with much plausibility and with sufnc. caution
as to weight of evid. in Geneal. Reg. VII. 221. SAMUEL, Hartford, s.
of William, d. 1682, his will of 16 Aug. in that yr. gave est. above

Susanna, had Susanna, b. 29 Oct. 1687; and Recompense, 19 Mar.
1690, H. C. 1708. * WILLIAM, Cambridge 1632 came, prob. with fam.
of four ch. Sarali, William, wh. d. }roung, Mary, and John, in the Lion
from London, arr. 16 Sept. See Winth. Hist. I. 90. This date over
throws' the slight presumpt. of some mem. of the mod. fam. that their
progenit. had been first of Braintree, inasmuch as the court had in the
preced. mo. order, the few friends of Hooker, wh. had sat down at B. to
rem. to a safer spot. He was freem. 6 Nov. 1632, and in the great
exodus, June 1636, rem. to Hartford, and there seems to have liv. in the
highest esteem, no man ever more oft. chos. rep. for hetvv. Oct. 1656 and
May 1675 (his last appear.), hardly a single yr. miss, his serv. Prob. he

first w. we kn. nothing, nor the order of dates for her ch. nor indeed
date of a single one. The first Sarah m. 17 Sept. 1646, John Wilcox ;
Mary m. a. 1656, Thomas Stoughton of Windsor, so that we can be sure
these two as well as John were of the first w. Eliz. m. 27 Nov. 1662,
John Terry of Windsor; and Sarah of the sec. w. m. 10 Nov. 1669,
Jonathan Ashley of Springfield. He d. 1675, his will of 16 May 1675,

WAKE, WILLIAM, Salem, was by our Court, in 1640, advis. to go

Alexander, exc. that he rem. to Boston, there by w. Rachel had John, b.
25 Aug. 1676; and Benjamin, 22 May, 1679; unless, indeed, he were

tradit. he came from the vicinity of Berwick on Tweed. BENJAMIN,

1682; was lieut. ar. co. 1676, and d. 19 Oct. 1688. Yet that he had w.
bef. m. with that wid. of Symonds, seems clear eno. for in Sept. 1662
is rec. of a deed from him to Susannah Walker, his d. of " that little
shop wh. now she keeps." This opinion I still retain, tho. in Mar. 1666
is found ano. deed of hims. and Susanna, his (third) w. to their d.

Wallis was not seen there, tho. in the passages referred to, if relat. to
men of the first, sec. or third general, this name appears to be the
true one.

WALLEY, CHRISTOPHER, Concord, freem. 1682, whose name by Paige
is read Walley from the Col. Rec. and by Shurtleff, Walers ; so unusual
a patronymic that I doubt the skilfulness of the elk. JOHN, Boston,
mariner, freem. May 1673, adm. the same day with John W. the merch.
and what is peculiar, vexatious, for a series of yrs. ea. had w. Eliz. and
one or two ch. with same bapt. names ; so that the confus. seems inex-
tricab. Prob. he had sec. w. Sarah, and by her Hannah, b. 23 July

25 Aug. 1684; Abiel, 30 Aug. 1686; William, 23 Dec. 1687; John, 19
July 1689; but Bridgman makes him b. at Bristol, 11 Sept. 1691.
Strong suspicion is felt that some of these may be ch. of the other John.
But indeed the whole is uncert. exc. John. He was of ar. co. 1671,
freem. 1673, capt. in the milit. 1679, in 1683 rem. to Barnstable, or
other town in Plymouth jurisdict. was engag. much in settlem. of Bris
tol, and assist, of that Col. 1684, and one of the council nam. in the
royal commissn. to Andros 1686. The yr. foil, the overthrow of A.
Walley had the disadvantage of being chief milit. officer in the expedit.
of 1690 against Quebec, wh. Sir William Phips had project, and of wh.
he took all the command; and thus was Walley reliev. of real responsi
bility, tho. expos, to pop. censure by the errors of Phips. Sir W. on
board ship summoned the city, and directed all the land operations of
the campaign, for wh. he had no adequate skill, and in the ill success of
wh. his eminent, incautious panegyrist natural, saw more of " the hand
of heaven " than of the ignorance and rashness of his hero. See Magn.
II. 51, the most curious biogr. of Sir William Phips, afterwards made
Gov. of Mass, by the f. of Mather dictat. to King William III. Hutch.
Hist, of Mass. I. gives Walley's acco. in Appx. In the same charter
W. was nam. of the Council, and by the Gov. and Council appoint, one
of the Sup. Ct. judges 1700-11. He d. 11 Jan. 1712, aged 68, wh.
might be suspect, for 58, if as Bridgman, 34, says he was b. at our
Barnstable. Nothing can be more certain, than that he was b. at least
8 or 10 yrs. bef. the com. of Rev. Thomas, for he was an Assist, of
Plym. Col. as early as 1684, beside being sw. as freem. 1673. His d.

in Farmer, wh. mistook the yr. by foil, the law, when custom had
begun to change the enumera. of the first month in the yr. for the for
ward not the backward yr. as well from the first day, as from the 25th.
Bradstreet's Journal of May 1678 ment. of the d. in Feb. or Mar.
preced. settles the question. See Geneal. Reg. IX. 49. His wid. Han
nah m. THOMAS, Barnstable, s. of the preced. prob. some yrs. older
than John, the milit. com. had fam. we kn. as two m. ds. are ment. in the
will of their uncle. Perhaps he had one or more sons ; but no certain
kn. has reach, me. THOMAS, Boston, m. 22 Sef>t. 1692, Christian John
son ; but I kn. nothing more of either. WILLIAM, Charlestown, m. 18
Feb. 1684, Sarah Marshal, perhaps d. of William.
WALLINGFORD, or WALLINSFORD, JOHN, Dover, m, 16 Dec. 1687,
Mary, d. of John Tuttle the sec. of the same, had Thomas, b. a. 1697,
and prob. others, bef. or aft. or both. NICHOLAS, Bradford, m. 4 Dec.
1678, Eliz. Palmer. It is strange that we kn. nothing of this fam. for
wid. Sarah hav. ten ch. wish, admin, of her h. (one of the ch. may have
been that Nicholas) applied to the Gen. Ct. 1683 for some purpose, on
wh. the Ct. resolv. that the County Ct. in Essex was authoriz. to do
all that was proper. I conject. that her h. was Nicholas of Rowley
1663.
WALLINGTON, NICHOLAS, Newbury, " a poor boy" says the custom-
ho. rec. of the passeng. in the Confidence from Southampton 1638, when
by the place in wh. his name is insert. I judge that he was, with others,
serv. of Stephen Kent; a short time was of Rowley, a. 1663; m. 30
Aug. 1654, says Coffin, Sarah, d. of Henry Travers of N. had John, b.
16 Sept. 1655, d. soon; Nicholas, 2 Jan. 1657; John, again, 7 Apr.
1659; Sarah, 20 May 1661; Mary, 20 Aug. 1663; James, 6 Oct.
1665; Hannah, 27 Nov. 1667; William, 7 Feb. 1670; and perhaps
others aft. was freem. 1670; and Coffin says was tak. at sea, perhaps
sev. yrs. aft. by some Barbary corsair, no doubt, and never came back.
My suggest, is that he is the h. of that wid. wh. is ment. in the article
preced. for sometimes the name is Wallingford.
WALLIS, or WALLACE, GEORGE, a youth of 15 yrs. came in the
Abigail, from London 1635, perhaps s. of Ralph, wh. came at the same

from Cornwall, constable for Falmouth, and sw. alleg. to Mass. 1 658 ;
but in July 1660 had three ch. bapt. by Robert Jordan, wh. adher. to
the ch. of Eng. in that her lowest hour of distress, and was censur. for
it, by our Gen. Ct. as the Col. Rec. IV. shows. I kn. he had w. Mar
garet, and s. John, wh. may have been one of those bapt. ace. the
rubric ; and the fam. was driv. to the W. by the Ind. war, and he sat
down at Beverly, call. hims. 58 yrs. in 1692, and d. 18 Oct. 1709, and

ROBERT, Ipswich 1638, had Nicholas, perhaps more. THOMAS, freem.

1682, from Salem, where he was a mariner, and sett, at Perpooduck,
wh. is now the town of Cape Elizabeth lying across the riv. from Port

that his s. William in 1732 liv. in Boston, in a deed convey, his f.'s prop,

404 WALTON.
WALTHAM, * HENRY, Weymouth merch. by his business relat. I judge
he was from Weymouth, in Co. Dorset, engag. 1635, with Dudley and
others, to promote fishing trade, rep. 1636, had Henry, Thomas, William,
Ann, and Phillis, prob. all b. in Eng. d. 29 Jan. 1659, unless this were
his s. of the same name. HENRY, Weymouth, s. of the preced. may
have had Jonathan, and other ch. * THOMAS, Weymouth, s. of Henry
the first, was rep. 1636. WILLIAM, Weymouth, br. of the preced. fin.
by Gen. Ct. for drunk. 1639, and d. next yr. unm. it is presum. for his
will of 3 Nov. 1640, the day of d. mak. f. his Excor. pro. 30 Dec. next,
names no w. nor ch. tho. we are indebt. to it for kn. of the f. and brs. and
sis. Oft. it is Walton in the rec. but that in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 349,
call, him s. of William, may be a mistake of the bapt. name as well as
spell, of surname.
WALTON, GEORGE, Exeter 1639, had been fin. for swear. 1638, as
our Col. Rec. I. shows; was of Dover 1648, was a vintner, 1662, at
Portsmouth, had George, b. 1649; Shadrach, 1658; Dorcas; Mary;
and perhaps other ch. by w. Alice; and d. 1686, at the neighbo. town of
Newcastle, or Great isl. aged more than 70. His relig. was not suffic.
in his old age, to protect him from diabolic, disturb, in 1682, of wh. in
Mather's Magn. VI. 69, some trifling report may be seen, but it is
slightly shorten, from his f.'s Remarkab. Providences. Similar occur, in
the same yr. at the same neighbor, are relat. in the next, artic. in both
works. Much of the same wretched stuff in the Magnalia, was by the
s. borrowed from the same storehouse. HENRY, Boston, by w. Mary,
had Job, b. 29 Sept. 1639; Adam, 8 May 1643; William, 29 Sept.
1645. JOHN, Portsmouth 1640, had come, a. 1638, from Plymouth, in
Eng. and aft. liv. here above 20 yrs. was sent by our Gen. Ct. home for

head 1668-74, s. of Rev. William, is by Eaton, nam. among the early
sett, at Reading. * SHADRACH, Newcastle, N. II. s. of George, was, in
1689, aft. overthrow of Andros, desir. of union betw. Mass, and N. II.
a capt. and major, in Ind. war; engag. in the campaign of 1707 for conq.
of Nova Scotia; made a royal counsellor 1716, d. 3 Oct. 1741, aged 83.
He was f. of George ; Benjamin, H. C. 1729 ; Eliz. ; Abigail ; Sarah ;
and Mary. * THOMAS, Weymouth, s. I suppose, of the first Henry,
rep. 1636. WILLIAM, Marblehead 1639, had been bred at Emanuel
Coll. Cambridge, where he took his degr. 1621 and 1625, and was, no
doubt, ord. and serv. at Seaton, Co. Devon, where it is kn. that sev. of

Mar. foil, was but few yrs. at H. prob. longer at M. certain, in 1648,
perhaps at Lynn a short time a. 1642, and may have taught for most of
his latter yrs. part of ea. season, perhaps at Manchester, to wh. he was
activ. as a propr. of Jeffery's cove, in bring, the governm. to gr. incorp.
1645, and d. in autum 1668 ; inv. of his est. was tak. 23 Nov. of this yr.
and he had allowance for his rain. serv. up to that time at Marblehead.
His w. was Eliz. ch. b. in Eng. were, as is said, John, 6 Apr. 1627;
Eliz. 27 Oct. 1629; Martha, 26 Apr. 1632; and at H. was Nathaniel, 3
Mar. 1636 ; and at M. were Samuel, 5, bapt. 20 June 1639 ; Josiah, 20
Dec. 1640, bapt. 2 Jan. foil.; and Mary, 14, bapt. 26 May 1644. Eliz.
m. a Conant; Martha m. a Munjoy, perhaps Walter; and Mary m.
Robert Bartlett. Mather spelt this, in his list of min. of the first classis,
Magn. III. 3, Waltham, and his authority (suppos. he must sometimes be
right) I preferred to Johnson's in my note to Winth. I. 169, for wh. Dr.
Farmer admin, gentle rebuke. Increase Mather relat. in Remark.
Providenc. the d. of Josiah by lightning, spells the name correctly, as I
now have.
WALVKR, ABRAHAM, H. C. 1647, is all that can be told of this man

WANNKRTON, THOMAS, Portsmouth, Kittery, and anywhere along
shore, where drink was easily got, a milit. offic. in serv. of Mason, sent
prob. in 1633, when his Gov. Neal was req. to go home; but he was
also one of the patentees in the Laconia gr. perhaps had no w. or ch. yet

WAPLES, WHAPPLES, or WHAPLES, THOMAS, Hartford 1643, was

where he was unfortun. in receiv. punishm. by whipp. at the hds. of the
408 WARD.
Presid. in June 1644, and more unfortun. in deserv. the disgrace, yet
thot. worthy to have his degr. of A. B. next yr. This strange event is
told by Winth. II. 166, without giv. names, wh. are found in the very
valua. Hist, of Newbury, by Coffin, 41. Eis assoc. in the infamy of the
juvenile offence, was a s. of Rev. Thomas Welde. He went home, soon
aft. prob. with his f. wh. procur. favor for him at Oxford, where he was
in 1648, made a fellow of Magdalen, and had a master's degr. and in
1649, an M. D. JOHN, Ipswich, physician, had perhaps liv. in Boston,
for a mortg. to him of est. rec. here Vol. X. 233, titles him now of Ips
wich, chirurg. and the date is 9 Oct. 1652. His Excor. Robert Paine
sold, Dec. 1677, the Boston est. to William Hudson. He perhaps resid.
at Hampton 1640, some time at Salem, was cous. of Rev. John, and that
benefact. of Harv. Coll. ment. by Pierce, 35 ; also, I presume, the freem.
of 1 643 ; in his will of 28 Dec. 1 652, pro. on new. yrs. day, 25 Mar.
1656, speaks of no. w. or ch. [See abstr. in Essex Inst. I. 50.] His
benefaction to Harv. Coll. was realiz. in 1658, as the invaluab. History,
by Quincy, shows us: "obtained in horses £72." See I. 513 of that
work. JOHN, Haverhill, elder br. of James, b. at Haverhill in Co.
Suffk. 5 Nov. 1606, as Mather tells, III. cap. 31, or p. 167 in the Lon
don ed. of Magn.« Yet " where his educ. was, I have not been inform."
he says, " the first notice of him that occurs to me, being in the yr.
1639, when he came over into these parts." In Eng. I found that he
was matric. at Emanuel, 1622, and had his A. B. 1626, and A. M. 1(530.
He had begun his serv. in Eng. "at a very small place" wh. was Ilad-
leigh in Co. Suffk. and in this country, preach, first at Kittery or York
in 1641, as Winth. II. 29 relates, but Mather, wh. loves always to be
indefinite, and sometimes hides his ignorance under periphrasis, would
magnify his watch over the flock at H. to "as many yrs. as tlmre are
sabbaths in the yr." We kn. that he was chos. and ord. in Oct. 1G45,
when, the ch. was gather. Winth. II. 252; and that flock he could, of
course, serve but 48 yrs. He d. 27 Dec. 1693; and could the truth
ever be sufficient for the author of the Magnalia, he might have call, it a
very honor, and protract, course of duty. On 19 Nov. preced. he preach,
an excell. sermon, enter, the 88th yr. of his age, " the only sermon that
ever was, or perhaps ever will be preach, in this country, at such an
age," adds the ecclesiast. historian, tho. since that day sev. more aged
pastors have in like kind, obey, their call. He was prob. the freem. of 3
May 1649. By his w. Alice Edmunds, brot. from Eng. wh. d. bef. him,
he had Eliz. b. 7 Apr. 1647, wh. m, 1665 Nathaniel Saltonstall, and d.

aft. hear, of d. of his s. Thomas, as inconsist. tradit. tells, prob. a. 1690,
took charge of his gr.childr. and d. says the gr.-st. in Apr. 1698, aged
79. Possib. he had serv. fifty-five yrs. bef. in the Parliam. army in the
gr. civil war, and that was the origin of the fable as to Thomas. But
Thomas d. at mid. age, and as the sacred tradit. of serv. in Cromwell's
army belongs to him, and not his f. it will be seen that he was not old
eno. to be a powder monkey to the gr. Protector. * JOHN, Branford, a

Mercy. His wid. m. Samuel Winsor, and next John Rhodes. RICHARD,
Salem, came in the fleet with Higginson 1629, sent by the Gov. and
Comp. as an expert hunter, and he k. a wolf in July 1632, had Na
thaniel, bapt. 20 Aug. 1637, and two other ch. in July 1638, whose
names do not appear, as the f. had bee. heretic, and in Mar. of that yr.
had liberty to follow Roger Williams to Providence, and there was nam.
the twelfth among the grantees of his settlern. Prob. Joseph, and cer
tain. Resolved were also his s. and perhaps he had more ; ds. were
Mehitable and Waiting. Disagree, with some of Williams's friends, he
join. Holden, Gorton, and others, tho. he did not rem. with them, wh.

set, now Warwick, and suffer, by monstrous injustice from Mass, in
1643. Yet, tho. some of his est. was confisc. at the Court in Oct. 1643,
he got off better than most of his fellow misbelievers wh. narrow, escap.
sentence of death, still he was bound to appear in May foil. See Winth.
II. 146-8. At the Gen. Ct. in May next "being found erroneous, heret
ical, and obstinate, it was agreed that he should be detain, prisoner till
the Quarter Ct. in the 7th mo. unless five of the magistr. do find cause
to send him away ; wh. if they do, it is order, that he shall not ret.
within this jurisdict. upon pain of death," as the Col. Rec. II. 73 says ;
as also Felt's Ann. II. 579 ; but in his Eccles. Hist. I. 558, the tender
heart of the writer prevail, over his judgm. to suppress the last words.
Yet even an Ecclesiast. Hist, should not be afraid of the truth. He was
ch. offic. of the milit. call. col. and d. 28 Oct. 1673. His wid. mo. of the
ch. Bethia, d. 3 Dec. 1680. Mehitable m. a Fenner. Of the tradit. of
his coming in the Lion with Roger Williams Feb. 1631, no respect is
felt, but its origin may easily be referr. to the subordinate truth that he

unit, with petitnrs. in 1645 for right from Mass, to plant at the settlem.
of Warwick, whence the heretic inhabs. of wh. his namesake Richard
was one, had been forcib. eject, and he d. 22 Jan. 1676, unless the
town rec. wh. contains the notices of d. of both, and no account of m. or
b. may be design, for differ, persons. Farmer, MS. makes a Thomas of
Hingham 1679, to be only s. of the preced. but I fear he mistook the
name of the f. THOMAS, Newport, among the freem. adm. 1655, was of
Wickford 1674. THOMAS, Saybrook, by Miss Caulkins conject. s. of

Miriam, d. of lieut. Thomas Tracy. He was ens. and propound, for
freem. 1671, had ten ch. as in the valua. Hist, of N. p. 114 is told; but
the fair writer gives only the three s. Thomas, b. Sept. 1670 ; John, Mar.
1672 ; and Joseph, 15 Jan. 1685. Names are heard of five others, Eliz.
b. Aug. 1675 ; Miriam, Apr. 1678 ; Martha, 6 Dec. 1680 ; Lydia, Aug.
1683; and Ann, Apr. 1689. Eliz. m. 10 July 1695, capt. John Fitch

at Harv. four at Yale, and five at other N. E. coll.
WATERS, ANTHONY, Hempstead, L. I. was town elk. 1663, favor, the

more. JOHN, Boston, came with Winth. 1630, I suppose, for he and w.
Frances are among the very early mem. of our ch. Nos. 23 and 4, and
d. since is add. to the first copy of rec. He was from Neyland, in Co.
Suffk. was a serv. of the Gov. wh. in letters to his w. the first autumn

JOHN, Milford 1658, if Lambert be correct; but no more is found of
him, not even his name among freem. of 1669. JOHN, Salem, perhaps
s. of Richard of the same, m. 1 Aug. 1663, Sarah, d. of John Tomp-
kins of the same, had Richard and John, b. last of June foil, and both d.
in few days ; John, 4 July 1665 ; Sarah, 30 Aug. 1667 ; Richard, again,

was call. Aug. 1692, witness against George Jacobs. His will of 14
Feb. 1707, was pro. 1 Mar. 1708. JOSEPH, New Haven 1649, aft,
1653, prob. rera. to Milford, at least had gr. of Id. in that town 1656
and 9 ; but no more is heard of him. JOSEPH, Boston, m. 13 Sept,

RENCE, Watertown 1634 or earlier, by w. Ann, d. of Richard Linton,
had Lawrence, b. 14 Feb. 1635; Sarah, 7 Dec. 1636; Mary, 27 Jan.
1638; Rebecca, Feb. d. 1 Mar. 1640; Daniel, 6 Feb. 1642; in 1638,
he or his w. or both, were warned for hav. danced, and may have been
indue, to rem. early to Lancaster, where the high authty. of Willard
makes him build the first ho. in that settlem. See Centenn. Celebr. 75.

by w. Hannah, had Joseph, b. 14 Oct. 1663; Hannah, 26 Jan. 1666;
Jonathan, 2 May 1671, d. young; Jonathan, again, 3 Oct. 1674; and
Stephen, 3 Apr. 1677; was freem. 1663? and d. 1693. RICHARD,
Salem 1637, a gunsmith, had a ch. bapt. prob. John, 29 Nov. 1640;
Eliz. 26 Feb. 1643, d. unm. at 20 yrs. ; Abigail, 18 May 1645; Eze
kiel, 4 Apr. 1647 ; Susanna, 1 Apr. 1649 ; and Hannah, 30 Jan. 1653;
tho. in whose right the act was admin, does not so well appear, as the
adm. of Joyce, wh. may have been his w. is by Felt insert, under 1641.
That w. I presume to be the person made by Farmer a man (GEORGE),
WATERS. 435
and by him enrol, of the ch. 23 May 1641. Such error is not so ludicr.
as that he commits in mak. our Walter Merry, the shipwright of Merry's
point, now the North battery, Merry Waters, as if any Boston puritan
two hundred and twenty yrs. since, could have been call. Merry, instead
of Sad, Stern, or Severe. Dearborn, in Boston Notions, 63, foil, the
blunder of so high authority. He is mark, by Felt as freem. tho. he
omits his name among mem. of the ch. and in my opin. the person so
entit. was the Ipswich man. He was one of the petitnrs. in 1665 for
conciliat. betw. the Col. governm. and the crown, and was licensed to
sell ale in 1668, and by his will of 16 July 1676, pro. 25 Nov. 1677,
mak. w. Joyce extrix. we find other ch. beside the forenam. viz. James,
William, Martha, and Mary. Then Abigail was w. of William Punch-
ard ; Mary of Clement English ; Susanna of Benedict Pulsifer ; and
Hannah of Joseph Striker. Martha was perhaps unm. and in that
instrum. ment. as well as her mo. and infirm br. William. Perhaps
Sarah, wh. m. 26 Feb. 1652, Joshua Ray, and Phebe, wh. m. 11 Oct.

labor of compel, the withdraw, of their pastor, unhappy Samuel Paris,
for his sad activ. in the delusion of witchcraft, that caused the death of
so many of his flock. See Calef, Salem Ed. 123; and 3 Mass. Hist.
Coll. III. 169, -where is most valua. copy from the rec. of the ch. of the

ELIEZER, Hartford 1666, had suit in Mass, as early as 1657, against
Thomas Purchase of Kennebeck. See our Col. Rec. IV. p. 334. He

well adv. in life, bring, w. Eliz. and ch. prob. Samuel, Henry, Richard,
and Eliz. beside ano. of his s. wh. was lost in the winter pass, hither of
the Lion, that had been charter, here soon aft. arr. of the Gov. and comp.
to go to Bristol for food, and was coming back in Dec. and Jan. 1630—1.
He had good est. but never desir. to be freem. liv. to 1667, aged 84, as
Blake's Annals tell. His w. had d. 23 June 1665, at the same age.
HENRY, Dorchester, s. or more prob. gr.s. of the preced. had in his will of
2 Dec. 1674, nam. sis. Eliz. and br. Richard, beside uncle Aaron, so that
my infer, is, that he had no w. or ch. was a mariner, and s. of Richard.

8 Sept. 1653; Richard, 1654; Jonathan, 29 Dec. 1657, d. young; with
his w. join, the 2d ch. in Boston 17 Feb. 1661, yet had no more ch.
bapt. here, tho. by town rec. it seems, that w. Esther brot. him Hannah,
23 May 1662; and w. Bethia brot. Hannah, 13 July 1677. I strongly
suspect that in this last rec. by carelessness of the writer mo. and ch.
changed names ; but it is of very slight importance, for his will of 2
Jan. 1697, pro. 28 Oct. foil, gave all his est. to w. Hannah, "hav. no
WAY — WEA 441
reason to believe any of my own chilelr. are surv." This latter AV. was
wid. of Thomas Hull, d. of William Townsend. He was a cooper, a
man of substance, of ar. co. 1671, was lieut. and serv. at castle island
under Roger Clap, was farmer gener. of the impost in 1674, and lost
money by his speculat. and some persons wished him to' be made post
master, in place of John Hayward the notary, perhaps out of compassion
for that ill success. RICHARD, " was of Scituate in 1651," says Farmer,
but no evid. is kn. to me. ROBERT, an apprent. in 1634, with Dept.-
Gov. Ludlow, yet in few wks. was under ens. Jennison, wh. soon law
fully assign, him to Edward Burton, and not long aft. was with Samuel
Hosier, wh. early in 1636 got rid of him to William Almy to take him
from Israel Stoughton, Jennison, Burton, and Hosier having to pay 20s.
each for the benefit of Almy. See pp. 119, 122, 123, and 163 of Col.
Rec. I. Such an inhab. was not object of regret if soon lost sight of.
SAMUEL, Dorchester 1664, perhaps s. of the first Henry, but nothing
more is heard. THOMAS, Isle of Shoals 1649, in few yrs. aft. was liv.
in some part of Essex Co. THOMAS, New London, s. of the first George
of the same, m. says Caulkins, Ann, d. of Andrew Lester, but if so,
she was the sec. d. of that name, prob. by his sec. w. of the same name
(for the first Ann by first w. had m. Nathaniel Millet), had Thomas,
wh. d. at 20 yrs. ; David, James, John, and six others betw. 1 688 and
1714, rem. a. 1720 to New Haven, and d. 1726. WILLIAM, Boston,
prob. s. of Richard, with w. join. Mather's ch. 9 Mar. 1677, was freem.
1678. WILLIAM, Salem, br. prob. of Aaron of the same, freem. 1690,

Samuel Paris. See Felt in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. III. 169.

acquaint, with the New Hampsh. and Maine early settlem. whose name
first appears on the gr. jury 1645, under the Gorges jurisdict. and in
1654 under that of Mass, of wh. he was adm. freem. 1652, as Farmer
counts the sw. of alleg. was rep. for York in 1659, in the subordin,

notes, 12 Oct. 1653, may have been br. or f. rather more prob. of Na

confess, that I kn. no more exc. that he was made counsel, of the Prov.
1698. Neither Belkn. nor Farmer give m. progeny or d. It has been
asked if Peter Weare and Peter Wyer were the same man. ROBERT,
Hampton, the freem. of 1678, may have been br. of Nathaniel. In a
very valua. note to Belkn. Hist, by Farmer in his Ed. 364, 5, uncer
tainty rests even on the f. of Meshech, b. 1714, H. C. 1735, one of the
most serviceable men that State has ever produc. wh. was its first Presid.
under revolut. const. Yet F. thinks he was s. and the youngest of four
of Nathaniel, wh. was s. of the last Peter.
WEATHERHEAD, or WITHERHEAD, MARY, one of the Quakers, wh.
arr. at Boston 27 July 1656, from London, aged 26, in the Speedwell,
but was, I hope, discreet eno. to go quietly to prison until the evil
spirit in our governm. sent her home by the same ship. The silence
of Hutchinson I. 196, permits us to indulge such a suspicion of rare
tolerat.
WEATHERS, JOHN, Hadley, sw. alleg. Feb. 1679.
WEAVER, CLEMENT, fined for drunk, in Mass. 1 640, may have not
been perman. resid. certain, not the Mr. Weaver, order, by court to be
sent home, 1 Mar. 1631, in the Lion, as one "unmeet to inhabit here."
Passing over the drunk, we may find him as Clement senr. a freem. at
Newport in the list of 1655. CLEMENT, Newport, in the list of freem.
1655 call. junr. may well seem s. of the preced. and he m. Mary, eldest
d. of William Freeborn, had perhaps the misfortune of being a capt,
1690 serv. with Walley in the expedit. of Phips against Quebec, if such
latitude of construct, may be applied to the exact statem. in Arnold's
Hist, of R. I. Vol. I. 520, 2. EDMUND, a husbandman, aged 28, with his
w. Margaret, 30, came in the Planter, 1635, from London. They are
call, in the London cocket for clearance, of Auckstrey in Herefordsh.
yet my search for their resid. in this country is unsuccess. JAMES, per
haps br. of the preced. came fellow-passeng. at least with him, and was
aged 23. THOMAS, Boston, by w. Eliz. had Sarah, b. 6 Nov. 1674,
but of him no more can be found here, tho. possib. it might be in ano.
town.
WEBB. 443
WEBB, ADEY, ADY, ADDEY, or ADDY, Plymouth 1631, was tax. in
two foil. yrs. and on the list of those able to bear arms in 1 643, his
name appears with a star bef. it. He was not a severe puritan, but oft.
prosecut. for work, on the Lord's day, bound as serv. to Gov. Prence,
and prob. had no w. or ch. See Felt, Eccles. Hist. I. 347. BENJAMIN,
Maiden, m. 7 Dec. 1669, Mercy, d. of William Bucknam, and, were it in
my power, I would gladly tell more than that he was freem. 1690.
* CHRISTOPHER, Braintree, freem. 1645, had perhaps Peter, but the
old town rec. is incomplete, not nam. the mo. nor date ; and it cannot
be that, as Farmer had it, he was b. 1657, and so more likely to be s. of
sec. Christopher ; was one of the petitnrs. that yr. for leave to go and
possess the Id. from wh. our governm. had unrighteous, driv. Gorton,
Holden, and other misbeliev. planters ; but the right of the sufferers was
vindicat. in Eng. * CHRISTOPHER, Billerica, prob. s. of the preced. b. in
Eng. m. 18 Jan. 1656, Hannah Scott, perhaps d. of the first Benjamin, had
John, b. 23 Oct. foil.; Samuel, Aug. 1660, as the town rec. certifies, tho.
I have seen a statem. that it was 28 July 1660; Christopher, 25 Mar.
1663; Hannah, 5 Sept. 1665; Benjamin, 12 Apr. 1667; Mary, 6 Sept,
1669; Joseph, 15 Mar. 1672; Abigail, 13 Oct. 1675. He was town
elk. 1678, early in life, and rep. in the difficult times of 1689 and 90, d.
30 May 1694, aged 64. DANIEL, Salem, licens. as innholder 1689, had
m. 20 July 1675, Mary Beckett, d. of John, had John, b. 17 Apr. 1676;
Margaret, 20 Feb. 1678, d. at 2 yrs. ; Perez, 1 Apr. 1680; Mary, 14
Aug. 1682; Daniel, 5 Sept. 1688; and Eliz. 17 May 1692. FRANCIS,
by Mr. Felt in Ann. I. 171, is represent, erron. as coming in the fleet
with Higginson in June 1629 to Salem, and by him correct, as in II.
630 a doubt is express, however. He was a contrib. of £50. to encour
age the planta. but never came over, I think ; and was one of the most
active promoters, no other mem. of the comp. being so sure to attend
their meet. In Oct. 1629 he join, with Gov. Cradock, Dept.-Gov.
Goffe, Winthrop, Saltonstall, treasr. Harwood, Johnson, Pynchon, and
Vassall, in writ, from London to Higginson and Skelton, as to the
" divers scandalous and intemp. speeches passed from one or both of you
in your publ. strmons or pray." as report, by the two members John and
Samuel Browne, wh. had accomp. those inin. Of course he was not a
fellow-passeng. but was (under direction of the Gov. and comp. in Eng.
to Endicott) to have a mill privilege in the Col. and all this "appears from,
the rec. I. 39, 401, and 408, in connex. with 128, showing that our Gen.
Ct. in Boston, Sept. 1634, wrote to him, George Harwood, and other
great friends in London, to intreat them to choose one of themselves
treasr. for this planta. in lieu of Harwood. Tho. the Edit, of Transact,
of Amer. Antiq. Soc. III. suppos. that he d. bef. sett, up his sawmill
444 WEBB.
here, to me it seems equal, prob. that he was engag. in business of too
much import, at London to come over, and intend, to carry forwards the
mill business by a serv. or factor. GEORGE, Dover 1642, tax. 1G48, d.
1650. HENRY, Boston, merch. came from Salisbury, Co. Wilts, with w.
Dosabell, perhaps in 1637, when Felt marks a gr. of Id. to him, but
more prob. in 1638, adm. of our ch. 6 Feb. 1639, as was she on Sunday
foil, made freem. 13 Mar. next, constable 1641, brot. only ch. Margaret,
wh. had been bapt. at S. 25 Sept. 1625. Prob. she was b. by a first w.
for in the parish rec. of St. Edmunds at S. may be seen, that Henry W.
m. 23 Apr. 1627, Jane Woolford, and so we may assume that Dosabell
was third w. This w. d. 28 Feb. 1660, and he d. 7 Sept. foil, and prob.
his d. was sudden, as Eliz. the d. of his only ch. was in. on the same
day to Robert Gibbs. Margaret had by spec, license of the Gen. Ct.

John and Samuel Sanford, s. of his sis. Eliz. had £80. ea. but perhaps
they were in Eng. as was a sis. of his w. also a legatee. Webb was
largely engag. in the Lynn iron works and a great benefactor to

with Stephen in the James from Southampton, emb. in* Apr. 1635, and
arr. 3 June. Both are call, laborers or husbandmen, said to be of Marl-
borough in Wilts, but favored also with an alias Evered, and it may be
that both points of the description were to delude the tyrannic, formality.
He was adm. freem. 7 Dec. 1636, ar. co. 1643, one of the early sett, of

perhaps br. of John, was fellow-passeng. in the James 1635, from
Southampton, both honor, with the alias Evered, and both from
Marlborough in Wilts ; but no more is kn. of him on our side of the

1666; Thomas, 5 Mar. 1668; may be that mariner of Boston, taking
deed of ho. and Id. Mar. 1661, from Nathaniel Fryer, and perhaps went

Sir Edmund Andros. THOMAS, York, prob. s. of the preced. may not

been by him bestow, on this fam. yet more was giv. to ano. wh. he
found, contra, to his first impress, was entitl. rather than this man to be

was s. by a former h. of Godfrey's w. But more desir. is it to avoid
the error of Miss Thomas, who would make John of our Ipswich, the
ancestor, and Thomas his son, when it appears plainly that John had

§ft*JoHN, Hartford 1636, but from what place in Mass, he went is
uncert. By fam. tradit. he was from Co. Warwick. He was rep. 1
May 1637, a magistr. from 1639 to 1655, when he was made dept.-gov.
and next yr. gov. In the gr. contest a. ch. governm. he took sides with
Rev. Mr. Russell of Wethersfield, and that caused his rem. up the riv.
to found Hadley in 1659, by our Gen. Ct. was adm. freem. of Mass, and
in May 1660 made a magistr. there, d. 5 Apr. 1661. Robert, William,
and Thomas, his s. are said to have foil, their f. but tho. the respectab.
ref. in Farmer's MS. for this tradit. is made to letter of the late Noah
Webster, the grammarian, I doubt his studies had been too long turned
in ano. direction to justify unlimit. confidence in all parts of his relat.
and that Robert did not foil, but accomp. his f. to Mass. He brot. from

also, Thomas and William, tho. one or both of the latter may have been
b. on our side of the ocean; and fam. tradit. makes William b. 1617.
No dates of b. of any of the seven are giv. by the most valua. work of
Goodwin, pub. since the d. of the compiler. From the will of 25 June
1659, little is learn, but the names of four s. two ds. Ann Marsh, w. of
John, and d. Markham, beside two gr.ch. Jonathan and Mary Hunt.
The name of mo. was not ment. and prob. she was oldest d. if not even
oldest ch. When or where she m. Hunt, or what even was his bapt. name
is unkn. Tradit. in the fam. makes his name John, and hers, Mary ;
and it may be conject. that both were d. JOHN, Portsmouth 1648, a
brewer, as constable was allow, charge for bring. Henry Taylor a pris
oner to Boston, in Col. Rec. III. 140. He may be the man to wh. gr.

JOHN, Newbury, s. of the first John, b. in Eng. was in milit. trouble as
Col. Rec. IV. 362, and, very briefly, Coffin, 62, sufficient, relate. He
may have been the man by Farmer call, a blacksmith, early at Haver-

GEORGE, Salisbury, s. of John of the same, took o. of alleg. 20 Dec.
1677, at the same time with his f. and brs. Samuel and John. JOHN,
Salisbury, m. 14 Nov. 1650, Deborah, d. of Samuel Wensley, or Winsly,

d. of Richard, had Jonas, b. 1665; Daniel, 1667; John; Samuel;
Joseph ; Isaac ; Mary ; and Hannah, all nam. when the inv. was brot. in
15 Jan. 1690. JONAS, the freem. of 18 May 1631, of wh. nothing more
is told, exc. by Bond wh. discov. from Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 2, that he
had been dism. from the ch. of Watertown to that of Wethersfielcl, but
the date in Bond, p. 963, 29 May 1635, is by me confidently read 29
Mar. 1636. Of course he came in the fleet of 1630, and by Bond's
reasonab. conject. in the ship with Sir Richard Saltonstall. I find a
Jonas, perhaps his s. at Stamford 1669, then seek, to be made freem. of
Conn, but he is accomp. in the same good purpose by JOHN wh. may be
gr.s. of the first Jonas. Mr. Judd enlarges our acquaint, with him by
tell, that he was of Stamford 1642, until he d. 1676, his inv. being of 5
June in that yr. He made his will Nov. 1672, nam. four s. John, Dan

WEEKS, AMMIEL, Dorchester, perhaps s. of George of the same,

Aug. 1671 ; Thomas, 20 Nov. 1673; and Hannah, 14 May 1676; and
he d. 20 Apr. 1679, aged 46. His wid. d. 10 Apr. 1723, aged 89. Eliz.
m. 20 Mar. 1679, Richard Mather, s. of Timothy, as one auth. assures
me, while old Dorchester, in Geneal. Reg. V. 467, asserts that her h.
was Timothy. AMMIEL, Dorchester, s. of the preced. m. 21 Nov. 1682,
Abigail, d. of William Trescott, had Ammiel, b. 26 Feb. 1683 ; Abigail,
29 Apr. 1687; and George, 20 Mar. 1689; both the s. being remernb.
in the will of their gr.f. T. leads one to presume the other ch. d. young.
CHRISTOPHER, Boston, by w. Mary, had Christopher, b. 24 Sept. 1695 ;

1694; Hannah, 5 Jan. 1696; and Ebenezer, 17 Sept. 1699. FRANCIS,
Providence 1637. But for insert, of this and the other B. I. numerous
hosts, whose name is more common, spelt Wickes, ano. place may seem
better. GEORGE, Dorchester, freem. 13 May 1640, brot. w. said to be
Jane, sis. of Roger Clap, and s. Ammiel, William, and Joseph, tho. the
last may have been b. at D. d. 27 Oct. 1659, says Farmer, foil, the to\vn
rec. in wh. date Geneal. Reg. V. 467 follows him ; but the inv. in
Geneal. Reg. VII. 334, unless the figures be wrong, proves that he d.
28 Dec. 1650, for it was taken 22 Jan. foil, and perhaps the d. of Oct.
1659 may have been of inf. s. of Ammiel the first. Plainly the numerals
a. the inv. in Geneal. Reg. are erron. for aft. that date, four ch. of his
are bapt. viz. John, 7 Mar. 1652 ; Eliz. 18 Sept. 1653, wh. prob. d. soon ;
William, 20 Aug. 1654; and Eliz. again, 14 Sept. 1656. In the Hist.
of D. compiled, with unusual diligence, by Ebenezer Clapp, 137, is the
true date. JOHN, Dorchester, perhaps s. of William of the same, m. 4
Nov. 1674, Sarah Hammond, but no more is kn. of him. JOSEPH, Dor
chester, s. of George, prob. b. in Eng. m. 9 Apr. 1667, Mary, d. of
maj. Humphrey Atherton, had Mary, b. 20 May 1668 ; Joseph, 26 Mar.
bapt. 3 Apr. 1670, d. at 20 yrs. ; Repent, 22, bapt. 27 Feb. 1675 ; and
perhaps others. He was freem. 1673, and d. 31 Oct. 1690; and his
wid. d. 17 Sept. 1692, aged 56, if the inscript. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 169,
be not erron. as I suspect. It was a mistake of Dr. Harris, very easily
made, to read the names of this man and his f. as Wilkes. JOSEPH,
Dorchester, prob. s. of Ammiel the first, by w. Sarah, had Eliz. b. 31
Aug. 1691 ; Sarah, 3 Apr. 1693; Hannah, 6 Apr. 1695; Experience, 2
June 1697; and Thankful, 29 Apr. 1699. His w. d. 12 Feb. 1736,
aged 74, says the gr.-st. LEONARD, Portsmouth, one of the men wh.
stood rather for Mass, than for the crown, in 1665, as in our Col. Rec.
IV. pt. 2, 270; by w. Mary had John, b. 14 June 1668; Samuel, 14
Dec. 1670; Joseph, perhaps, 11 Mar. 1672; Joshua, 30 June 1674;
Mary, 19 July 1676; Margaret, 4 June 1679; and he had a sec. w.
Eliz. d. of Samuel Haynes the first. SUPPLY, Maryborough, s.,of the

George, bapt. 2 Oct. 1664; Sarah, 19 Aug. 1666; Samuel, b. 25 Jan.
1670, beside John, the eldest, 23 Feb. 1652, wh. is the only ch. nam. in
his will of 10 Dec. 1677, pro. Feb. foil. He is the bold innovator as
was perhaps thot. wh. being success, as elk. of the writs, after d. of Wil

names, instead of numbers in the Julian calendar; and d. 13 Dec. 1677.

1834, Farmer says three of the name had been gr. at Harv. one at
Yale, and five at the other N. E. coll.
WEIGHT, RICHARD, Boston 1655, aged then 55 yrs. may have been
trans, inhab. THOMAS, the freem. of 8 Oct. 1640, may have enjoy, a
various spell, of his name, but with this form it is very difficult to fol
low him. For the same reason pursuit is unsatisfact. as to the next
surname.
WEIGHTMAN or WIGHTMAN, DANIEL, Newport, pastor of the Bapt.

Charlestown, mariner, by w. Eliz. had Eliz. b. 3 June 1689. His will
in Pro. Rec. XVIII. 152, shows that he had sev. other ch. at the time
of mak. 14 July 1704, and bef. it was pro. 1 May 1714, prob. he had
two more, for his w. join. Mather's ch. 26 Jan. 1690, and then had three
ch. bapt. whose names are not seen; Rachel, 15 Jan. 1693; Susanna,

10 May 1696; William, 18 Sept. 1698; Benjamin, 8 June 1701;
Ebenezer, 28 Jan. 1705 ; and Jonathan, 20 July 1707. It nam. the w.
sole extrix. gave her all his prop. dur. wid. and provid. that on the m.

July 1689, aged a. 23, was s. of Thomas of Charlestovvn, says the rec.
of Enfield, but not min. as Farmer calls him, tho. he may have preach,
for the Coll. Catal. prints him in Roman let. and adds that he d. 1689.
This last fact could not have been within the kn. of F. as the custom of
noting the yr. of d. has been wisely introd. since his time, but he would
have been more precise in his latitude of dying bef. 1699, had he turned
to the Hecatompolis, while consult. Mather, he would have seen, that in
1696, he marks Enfield vacant. PHILIP, Ipswich 1664, m. 1665, Han
nah, d. of Henry Haggert of Wenham, had Philip, b. 27 Dec. 1668;
and Moses, 25 Nov. 1685 ; perhaps others; rem. to Kingston, N. H.
there his s. Samuel had Samuel, b. 1 Sept. 1710, wh. d. 5 Apr. 1823,
aged therefore 112 yrs. 6 mos. and 23 days, as Farmer, in 3 Mass. Hist.
Coll. I. 158 notes, prob. the oldest man kn. as native of any part of
our country. See also his Ed. of Belkn. N. H. I. 208. * THOMAS,
Milford 1639, one of the found, of the ch. that yr. as Dr. Trumbull
says; was freem. 1665, and rep. the same yr. He had m. Hannah, d.
of Thomas Buckingham, and his ch. were Mary, b. 14 Aug. 1655;
Thomas, 28 Jan. 1658; Sarah, bapt, 1660; Esther, 1664; and Lydia,
wh. d. 1685 at 16 yrs. He d. 12 Aug. 1681, and his wid. d. a. 1684.

gr.-st. tells, d. 10 Apr. 1701, aged 79, and by the same testimo. we may
believe ano. Thomas there, d. 15 June 1703, a. 50 yrs. To discrimin.
the spell, of these fam. names by c, and s has been impossib. and
Farmer did not attempt it, tho. he div. the tribes as arbitrarily as was
necessary. He marks the gr. in 1834, under Welch as 7 at Yale, 3 at
Harv. but under Welsh gives Yale none ; and I find at Harv. three
more with the s.
WELCOME, PETER, Boston, mariner, had, I suppose, mov. in from
some other place ; possib. he was s. of William of Pernaquid, bee. noth
ing of him is found in town or ch. rec. but his will of 23 Feb. 1695,
456 WELD.
pro. 28 Mar. foil, gives to his d.-in-law Mary Howard, half of his dw.-
ho. and shop, salt ho. wharf, &c. she paying his s. Joseph, on his com.
of age, £30. or if not so paid, he should have that moiety, and the other
half to s. Peter ; all personal est. to d. Mary Townsend, exc. sea books
and instrum. with wear, apparel, that should all go to Joseph. WIL
LIAM, Pemaquid, took o. of fidel. to Mass. 1674, as is seen in Col. Rec.

WELD, or WELDE, DANIEL, Braintree 1640, freem. 2 June 1641, by
w. Alice, wh. d. 18 Apr. 1647, had Dorcas, b. 6 Apr. 1643, d. in few
wks. By ano. w. Ann, wid. I think, of George Hyde of Boston, he had
at Roxbury, whither he rem. with recommend, of Braintree ch. 1651,
Benjamin and Mehitable, tw. b. 1655, bapt. 16 Mar. 1656, both of wh.
d. next yr. ; Daniel, b. 14, bapt. 17 Oct. 1658 ; beside ano. Mehitable,
whose b. or bapt. we find not (yet she may be d. of ano. Daniel) ; but
the town rec. ment. d. 12 Jan. 1680. He was town elk. 1654, and much
interest, in sch. for wh. the Gen. Ct. in 1659 reward, him with 200
acres, a gr. equal to that of Corlet at the same time, Col. Rec. IV. pt.
I. 397 ; and d. 22 July 1666, aged 81, says the town rec. His will of 1
July preced. was pro. 3 Nov. foil. In it he gives all his prop, to his w.
Ann, dur. wid. ment. s. Daniel as hav-had his full portion of est. and
more than remain, yet liv. in Eng. and whether liv. or d. unkn. to the
testator, yet he leaves him 205. and aft. provid. for w's. third, if she m. gives
all resid. to her s. Timothy Hyde, equally with his own ch. Joseph and
Bethia. He makes his cousins Edward Denison, Thomas Weld, and
John W. overseers of the will. Now great uncertainty arises hereon,
whether the yrs. of his age in the town rec. be not far too high, if he be
f. of those tw. in 1655, and also whether the Daniel b. Oct. 1658, were
s. or gr.s. DANIEL, Roxbury, s. of Joseph first of the same, was sch.-
master aft. leav. coll. perhaps at Cambridge, but soon rem. to Salem,
there was a physician, had early m. Bethia, sec. d. of Edward Mitchel-
son, serv. in Philip's war, at least in the Narraganset campaign, 1675, as
chief surg. and d. May 1690. At Salem were b. to him, as Felt says,
Barbara and Eliz. besides at Cambridge had Daniel, b. 20 Aug. 1663 ;
Edward, 7 June 1666, wh. was also a physician, but d. 3 Oct. 1702, at
36 yrs.; and Bethia, 24 Jan. 1668. His wid. d. 24 Oct. 1719, in her
70th yr. Perhaps the same man at Roxbury, of whose derivat. aft.
great search, I am unable to conject. otherwise, had Mary, b. 19 Feb.
1676, and may have been f. of that Mehitable, wh. d. 12 Jan. 1680.

he was the undergr. at Harv. Coll. wh. in 1644 was whip, by the Presid.
for break, and rob. his uncle's ho. wh. was then in Eng. and this disas
trous discipline would naturally induce the youth to hide there bef. his
return. See Winth. II. 166. The fam. tradit. is that he was min. of a
parish in Durham, whose name call. Riton is not to be easi. found,
near his f. prob. and he may have been eject, instead of that Thomas, wh.
Calamy names, by the Bartholomew Act, as the f. was in his grave bef.

1631, H. C. 1650; according to certif. from the present vicar of the
parish to my young friend Weld, that the rec. is made and sign, by the
f. and obs. his handwrit. was so obscure, that ther day and mo. of the
bapt. of sec. s. could not be made out. Perhaps the third s. did not live
long, at least we hear nothing of any other ch. than the three brot. by
him, with their mo. in the William and Francis, leav. London 9 Mar.
and arr. at Boston 5 June 1632, he hav. enjoy, the benefit of being
excommun. the yr. bef. by the driveling malevolence of archbp. Land,
then only bp. of London. Next mo. he was sett, at Roxbury, and 6
Nov. foil, made freem. but whether he had more ch. or when his w.
Margaret d. and a sec. w. Judith was tak. as the Roxbury ch. rec. proves,
and other details, are not found.
He was earnest in the synod of 30 Aug. 1637 against the antinom.
doctrines of Mr. Wheelwright, in stat. the eighty-two errors, and their
confutat. with some unsound axioms as decid. by that grave Assemb. with
wh. the first twenty pages of the work, call, a Short Story of the Rise,
Reign, and Ruin of the Antinominian's Familists, &c. publish, by him
in London, 1644, are fill, and the authorship of that part would do no
discredit to him or any other divine of the land. Of the next twenty-
three pages, the proceedings of the Gen. Ct. 2 Oct. (should be Nov.)
1637, another hand may have been the reporter; but no more blame
attaches to any other portion, than to the copy of the petition, writ,
as Winth. tells, by William Aspinwall, in favor of Wheelwright, with
wh. these proceedings are appropriat. introd. Whatever hand report,
these proceed, it could not well have been Gov. Winth. at least in
the full transcr. for on p. 27 it is alleg. that Wheelwright was requir. if
he did not in 14 days depart from our jurisdict. "to render hims. at the
ho. of Mr. Stanton, one of the magistr. there to abide as a prisoner, till
the Ct. should dispose of him." Now this could not have fallen from
the Gov. whose narrative in sev. items, p. 246 of Vol. I. varies from
this report, and does not name the magistr. but uses the phrase, " one of
the magistr." wh. were then only seven, beside hims. and the Dept.
But Col. Rec. I. 207 has the name of Stoughton ; and no Stanton was
ever one of the magistr.
Next comes, strange interject, betw. that report of the judicial proceed
ing of the Nov. 1637 Court and the Apology for the proceedings of the
Gen. Ct. 9 Mar. preced. i. e. Mar. 1636-7, the nauseous detail of the
monstrous birth 17 Oct. 1637, by Mrs. Dyer, one of Wheelwright's ad
herents, as the same was popular, circulat. in Boston, and in almost the
same language as Winth. I. 261-3, has giv. it. A briefer narrat. of her
misery in that untimely birth, was print, at. London 1642, with other
similar cases of misfortune, as I saw in the British Museum. This acco.

varies only as one relat. of so disgust, a story must be expect, to differ
from ano. especial, as every admir. of horrors could then be easi. gratif.
when the Gov. had, as he tells us in his hist, by advice of the magistr.
and min. caused the decaying remains to be disinterr. Yet what thus
bee. fully kn. to prob. most of the men, women, and half gr. ch. within
four miles (and Weld liv. only two miles off), is by the Hist, of Boston
held for proof, that Winth. not Welde, was the author, as "two men
without close confer, could not have writ, things so exactly coinciding."
See Drake, 218. Ano. proof of the same nature is brot. forward by a
writer with the signature of Hutchinson in the recent, issued Historical
Magazine for Nov. 1857, fill, almost four pages at the begin, of the No.
After the apology (wh. covers thirteen pages) for the early proceedings
at the Gen. Ct. against Wheelwright's Fast sermon, near the top of 59th
page, begins prob. Weld's " additions to the conclusion of the book," writ
ten in a very different style from the apology, and evident, a continua.
from near the bottom of p. 43, and now reaching to the end of the little
vol. on p. 66. What gives the chief value to this humble 4to. however,
is the Preface, signed T. Welde, in small Rom. cap. for the earlier copies,
in small Italic, not cap. in the later. It fills sixteen pages of small type,
and is written with great spirit. Equal in pungency to the style of this
preface, is that of the conclusions in the last seven pages. Such pun
gency, using a mild term to express what in the writing of any but a
clergym. seems^malignity, is not seen in any other writer on that subj.
But bef. the Preface is print, a remarkab. address " To the Reader." " I
meeting with this Book, newly come forth of the press, and being earn
estly pressed by divers to perfect it, by laying down the order and sense
of this story (wh. in the Book is omit.) tho. for mine own part, I was
more slow unto it ; not as if I think it contains any thing but truth, but
because the names of some parties that acted in our troubles, that have,
since that time (I hope) repented, and so God having pardon, their sins
in Heaven, I should have been loth to have reviv. them on earth. But
considering that their names are already in Print, without any act of
mine, and that the necessity of the times call for it, and its requisite that
God's great works should be made known, I therefore, in a straight of
time, not having had man}r hours, have drawn up this following Preface,
and prefixed hereunto with some additions to the conclusion of the Book.
I commend thyself and this to the blessing of God. T. W."
If to disting. the tone and temper of the Apology, that may natural,
be presum. the composition of Gov. Winth. [see his Plist. I. 221]
from other parts of the tract, except the documenta. pieces proper [Ib.
248] resort be had to critic, comparis. of style, slight difficult, will
attend the separat. of what is betw. the two covers of the binding.
WELD. 461
Against the errors of Wheelwright, and the fantastic revelations of Mrs.
Hutchinson, Welde could not more sincerely show his zeal, than Winth.
but his zeal is denunciatory, fierce, and virulent, while that of the Gov.
seems cautious, calm, and moderate in terms, decisive in spirit. Even
in type of the same forms, it may be followed, like that fabled river,
in its nameless course under the sea, as told by Virgil, En. III. 686,
bearing the true, unmixed proof of its fountain :
nunc
Ore, Arethusa, tuo Siculis confunditur undis.
Some slight regard to a charge, publish. 26 May 1853, in the Hist, of
Boston by Mr. Drake, against my argum. as to the authorship of the
" Eise, Reign, and Ruin," on p. 249 of Vol. I. of Winth. Hist, of N.
E. may decent, now be shown. That my remarks therein involve an
accusat. of Welde "as absurd as it is unjust," may pass without com
ment ; but as the Histor. of Boston proceeds to observe on my criticism
that " it is criminal so to do," I appeal from his decision to the compe
tent tribunal of gentlemen and scholars in this and all succeed, ages.
Weld had gone home, in comp. with Hugh Peter and Mr. Hibbins in
Aug. 1641, they being jointly charg. with a commiss. from the governm.
to represent our means and wants, in wh. they met extraord. good suc
cess, procuring benefact. to extent of £500. bef. Hibbins's ret. in Aug.
foil. I have seen among MSS. in the Col. Libr. copious acco. of Dr.
and Cr. of Weld, wh. seems to have suffer, no little suspicion, and rec.
some unkind treatm. from our Gen. Ct. wh. hardly ever fail, to be dis-
satisf. with their agents in Eng. and wh. in Oct. 1645, adopt, a vote,
that Mr. Peters and Mr. Weld " having been long absent, may under
stand the Ct.'s mind, that they desire their presence here, and speedy
return." On this ungracious invit. neither came, but ea. gain, distinct, in
the mother land. Weld obt. a living at St. Mary Gateshead, Co. Dur
ham, and_d. says the rec. of Roxbury ch. (not likely in such a case to be
wrong), 23 Mar. 1661; I think it is said, at London. This was soon
aft. the Restorat. of the k. and bef. the great ejectm.
Perhaps I may be excus. for a long explanat. as to what is said in my
sec. ed. of Winthrop in a note on I. 248, publish. 1853. Having never
bef. 1842, heard any doubts of the agency of Weld in the publicat. of
that interest, little volume of wh. everybody knew he acknowledg. the
preface and conclusion, and my suspicion being excited, at the British
Museum, by the unexpl. address to the Reader, that suspicion in 1843,
was express, by me in a single line of my Gleanings in 3 Mass. Hist.
Coll. VIII. 285. Attention was thus drawn to the matter, and it was
supposed by some that in Baylie's " Dissuasive from the Errours of the
Time," London 1645, and Cotton's "Way of Congrega. Chhs. cleared,"
39*
462 WELD.
London 1648, wh. had a reply to some of Baylie's aspersions, it might
appear, that Gov. "Winth. was as much engag. as Weld in the publicat.
of Short Story of the Rise, Reign, and Ruin. A friend lent me these
two works, and they did not produce on me the impress, some persons
receiv. perhaps without close examinat. For instance, in Ecclesiast. Hist,
of N. E. I. 329, Mr. Felt observes on my suppos. that Welde compos.
and arrang. the greater part of the work so publish, and that Gov. W.
was auth. of the rest, entit. a Brief Apology, &c. and adds, " But it is
clear from Baylies and Cotton, that Winth. did write " The Book " a?
stated by Weld " to the Reader." Now each of the three parts of this
affirmat. is wrong. Weld hims. does not state " that Winth. did write
the Book," wh. is too bold and direct assert, for the crafty writer of that
addr. wh. does nothing more than suggest that somebody beside T. W.
was the writer or editor. Baylies, p. 57, in strong desire to censure
Cotton for his familism and antinom. relies upon " the witness of Master
Winth. the wisest of all the N. E. Governors hitherto, and of Master
Wells, a gracious minister of that land in their printed Relations of the
Schisms there ; " and he proceeds to cite passages equally from the
Preface or conclusion, as well as from the Proceedings or the Apology,
a dozen or twenty from each, but a diligent, not a superficial scrutiny
through his quotations will give a great preponderance to those ack-
nowledg. to be Weld's. On p. 64 also, Mr. Felt refers to Winth.'s
Narration, but in the very last line preced. refers to this work as the
testimony also of Weld. In defence of hims. Cotton follows Baylie
very closely, quoting the exact phrases of his antagon. and so, p. 56,
refers to " the witness of Winth. and Wells," not even correct, the spell,
of his name. On p. 57 citing from B. the " testimony from the Court,
wh. (it is likely) was deliv. by Mr. Winth. being then Gov. [as in]
p. 35 of the Short Story," &c. so that the weight of his evidence is, to
.the least scruple or even grain, of the same weight, and no more, with
Baylie's, to prove in Mr. Felt's words " that Winth. did write the
Book." Prob. Mr. Felt had not, when he compos, that passage,
examin. those authors, or, at least, his survey was cursory, for in Ib.
534, speaking of the publicat. of this pamphlet in 1644, he uses similar
words : " Its preface was by Mr. Weld, and the rest of it by Gov. W."
overlook, the acknowledgm. of Weld, that the conclusion, wh. even
slight observ. must make seven pages, was, by him. Writing of the end
of Weld's life, Mr. Felt uses more precision, p. 436. " He was engag.
with Gov. W. sen. in prepar. the Rise, Reign, and Ruin," &c. in N. E.
Yet what Gov. W. contrib. was in Mar. 1636-7, the Apology and per
haps part of the Proceedings in Nov. 1637, publ. in Boston as much as
<in London, but NOT PRINT, in either, while Weld was the publisher, by
WELD. 463
his own confess, overrul. the London press in 1644, so that my expres
sion, as he fairly gives it on his p. 329, may stand unreprov. Beside,
Mr. Felt candidly, p. 554, takes notice, that Wheelwright, s. of Rev.
John " endeavors to show from the concessions of Weld, that his f. did
not adopt the main principles of his sis.-in-law, Mrs. H." and he still
more fairly quotes a let. of 1647, from Hooker of Hartford to Shepard
of Cambridge, both of wh. most have kn. what the truth, and the whole
truth was a. the publicat. " I cannot be persuad. but these men " [the
Scotch Presbyterians, Rutherford and Baylie] HAD A SECRET HAND TO
PROVOKE MR. WELD TO SET FORTH HIS SHORT STORY," &c.
Certain. Weld's desire was not to be thot. author of the " Short Story,"
&c. and he would gladly have the reader presume that Gov. Winth.
whose name belongs to part of the official documenta. matter therein
print, had issued the vol. tho. any careful student could detect the most
of the pages due to ano. hand. The assist, librar. at Harv. Univ.
drew my attention to the vol. of Rutherford, professor at St. Andrews,
call. Survey of Spiritual Antichrist, London 1648, p. 171, where he
says of our N. E. heretics, " They held these wicked tenets especially,
that follow, as may be gathered out of the story of the Rise, Reign, and
Ruin of the Antinomians and Libertines that infected the Chhs. of N.
E. penned (as / am informed) by M. Winthrope, Gov. a faithful wit
ness, and approv. by M. T. Weld in his preface to the book." This is
in c. XV. yet in the next c. p. 180, he twice names Weld as author of
that work, as in the first sentence of the same c. p. 176, of Mrs. Hutch-
inson, one of the authors of the " wicked opinions," he borrows the
happy designat. of our Roxbury historian, saying " This woman is call,
the American Jezabel." How R. was informed that Gov. W. penned the
work, may easily be conceiv. for in his sev. journeys from St. Andrews
to London, and back, his road lay straight thro. Gateshead, opposite
- Newcastle, wh. was Weld's resid. So high was his estimat. of the vol.
that in the sec. pt. of R.'s work, it is cit. hardly less than three hundred
times, always by the tit. of Rise, Reign, and Ruin. It must be kept,
constant, in mind, that Rutherford and Bailie were of the four great
Scotch magicians employ, as mem. of the famous Westminster Assem
bly, that sat above five and a half yrs. to regulate the true faith for all
future time. Great opportunities for acquir. knowl. as to every thing,
espec. of a relig. value, that had occur, in N. E. were, of course, enjoy,
by them.
Being sharp, reprov. in the Geneal. Reg. VIII. 84, for what in my
sec. ed. of Winth.'s Hist, of N, E. was utter, about the attempt of
Weld to conceal his first connex. with this work, I may be permit, in
explanat. if not justificat. to add not a little. By the change of words,
464 WELD.
" the authorship " of Short Story is made the matter of controversy, and
that man of straw is put forward, wh. may be left to the critic ; for my
chief inq. was confin. to the publicat. or editorship ; having only in a
single instance named Weld as author of Rise, Reign, and Ruin, and
then in note on Vol. I. 258, in the closest relation to a passage from the
preface, signed by hims. and the very last words of the conclusion on p.
66. So that the differ, betw. the critic and myself is very slight, as to
material passages by me ascrib. to Weld, " BEYOND WHAT HE HAS HIMS.
ACKNOWLEDG." In the further opin. of the same writer "that what
ever Mr. Weld did, he did under the direction or by the adv. of the
dominant party here," all may readi. agree. A little outbreak of bit
terness in the Preface, or in the " additions to the conclusion of the
Book," may seem very natural in that age ; and in the larger report of
the case of Mrs. H. in Hutch. Hist. II. 482-520, wh. should be read by
every one that desires to know the full extent of the tyranny, we easily
discern, how eager in the prosecut. were Dudley, the Dept.-Gov. wh.
was of Weld's ch. at Roxbury, Endicott, Bartholomew, and Nowell, of
the laity, as, of the clerg. Symmes, fellow-passeng. with her, Shepard and
Hugh Peter, the fellow-passeng. of W. on the homeward voyage. No
one could be misled by my words, as if I asserted that Weld, more than
Peters or anybody else, wrote the petition in favor of Wheelwright, or
the Apology, or the Proceedings of the Court in the larger part, or the
popular report of poor Mrs. Dyer's affliction. He is responsible, as
Editor, for all but the strictly official docum. Now without intend, any
invidious allegat. as to a single word in the vol. " beyond what he has
hims. acknowl." I renew my remark, that he bears the responsib. for all
exc. from p. 46 to the third line of p. 59 inclus. bee. it was print, under
his direct, and most of it is evident, his own composit.
The friend, wh. the critic says pointed out my error, was, yrs. ago,
satisfied that I had good grounds for my opinion. The diligent assist.
librar. of Harv. Coll. in his MS. on the reverse of the title-page of
" Antinomians and Familists condemned," had noted, that it was the
same work with Weld's Short Story, and infer, that it was an earlier
impression, because Short Story gain, the Note to the Reader and the
Preface ; and he then adds (without hesitat.) from that address, that it
appears, Thomas Welde " was not the author of what is contained in the
present vol." His caution was not excit. by the admiss. of Weld hims.
as to the " additions to the conclusion of the book," and he believ. what
the rev. casuist cunning desir. rather than what he said. My suggestion
that this title-page was a sneaking device to give support to the false
implicat. in the Note to the Reader, is by the Geneal. Reg. critic sub-
merg. in the conject. that it " might have been, and no doubt was, a
WELD. 465
printer's error " ! ! Large inq. has been provok. by this bold assumption
and unusual state of things. The first result is from collation by Mr.
Livermore of the copy in College Libr. of " Antinomians arid Familists,"
with the Athenaeum copy of the " Short Story," and he assures me that
it is apparent that from p. 1 to 66, where the Athenaeum copy breaks
off, the correspondence is perfect in every letter, typographical error
or not, as 1. 6 on p. 46 spread has the let. r pushed out of its place, so
that the lower is as high as the upper part of the letters on either side ; —
as p. 1 of Short Story, begins with signat. B. in the copy that has six
teen or eighteen pages of prefatory matter, so begins with signat. B. the
copy devoid of those pages ; and so on p. 9 in each of these books is sig
nature C — on 17 D — on 25 E, &c. with the trifling except, on p. 62,
1. 8, the parag. ends in one with the words " slighted had so much," in
the other, " had so much slighted," no letter being changed. An expert
in printing, or even an apprentice, would judge of Antinomians and
Familists, &c. from sig. B on p. 1, that sig. A had once preced. it, tho.
page 1 follows next aft. title-page. Mr. Marvin, an accomplish, printer,
on first sight observ. that the Preface had been suppressed, and that the
title-page was print, from the same form as Short Story, substituting
other words, for all above the imprint. Indeed, to suppose it possib. that
the work, without the preface, was issued first, is very like the expectat.
of seeing the second story of an edifice sustain itself in the air before
the first is built for its support. The forms are identical, the ornaments
unchanged, as on the title-pages of both a border of twenty-one types or
beads runs by the sides, nineteen more at the top, and eighteen at the
bot. ; and *io letters were distrib. from the form to the case betw. the
strikings off for one and the other through the whole. Yet so widely
differ the title-pages, that one would judge instantly, that years might
interven. betw. them, one showing only forty-one words, the other, one
hundred and fifty-six, above the imprint ; while that imprint of three
lines disproves the whole cunning of the change, for there exactly as in
the body of the two books, all the letters, and figures, and imperfections,
and punctuation, and errors, were immovable. The words above the
imprint in one are removed from the other, and new ones inserted,
except the very large letters of the single word NEW-ENGLAND
running wholly across the wide page, some of wh. the keen eye of my
young friend, W. H. Whitmore, detected as unmoved ; and a less prac
tised vision would instantly perceive, when directed to it, how the first E
in that word differs from the sec. E, and confidently assume that the
enormity of the first E might prove it to be the only one of the kind in
the print, office of Ralph Smith. The last letter but one of that word
in a copy wh. to me seems clearly, by a hundred indicat. to have been
466 WELD.
among the earliest taken off from the standing form, is a well looking,
perfect capital, but in two other copies appears to have its face battered,
as if it had been in irregular company, and in the only other copy ever
seen by me, the body appears to have a twist, wh. may account for the
bruise on its face.
Which now, of these two, both print, early in 1644, was prior? Very
short time, only few hours prob. elaps. betw. them ; and further scrutiny
of the note to the Reader may be useful to aid the decision of that ques
tion. The opening words are " meeting with this Book, newly come
forth of the Press ; " and it is very strange, that no other man than
Thomas Weld is kn. to have ever seen such a supposed book, bef. or
since. Industry was most active, in that day of civil war, to hunt up
every thing as soon as print. The eager friend of King Charles I. in
London, whose assiduous attent. to such serv. furnishes one of the most
curious and complete assortment of treasures in the British Museum,
contain, near, thirty thousand pieces and tracts, bound in over two
thousand vols. in the order of success, dates betw. 1640 and 1660, must
be inq. of whether this be one book or two. Now in that vast collect,
this tract stands with only the tit. Short Story, &c. obtain, by the book
collector 19 Feb. 1643, and no such work as " Antinomians and Familists
condemn." &c. is nam. Next, in reference to tbe point of priority,
should be weigh, what is told in that note to the Reader, as to the
names of some that acted in our troubles, wh. the writer says " are
already in print, without any act of mine." But we are left uncertain,
whether that print without his act means (as seems fairly to follow) in
the Book newly come forth. Unless it may be shown, that such print,
of the names can be found elsewhere than in Short Story, bef. the issue
of Antinomians and Familists condemn, it may well be thought this
addr. to the reader is only a subterfuge. Such evidence it may be hard
to find ; yet no other man than Weld can be nam. wh. would in London
be so deeply engag. in such cause. But what motive had Weld to make
such a statement? To this question, a reasonable reply is, that he
might fear prosecution for libels by one or another. Friends of the
parties implicat. must have been numerous eno. in London ; for tho.
Gov. Cradock, Sir Richard Saltonstall, Sir Bryan Jansen, treas. Har-
wood, Alderm. Andrews, Col. Yen and others, may have been impartial,
Sir H. Vane would, of course, sympathize with Cotton, Wheelwright,
and the majority of his fellow-worship, in Boston ch. Mr. Hutchinson
also had a br. there, wh. had liv. here, was of high esteem and large
property, and beside others of the Antinom. party, Coggeshall was a man
of influence in Boston, and Aspinwall a ready writer, both able to com
mand friends in the great city ; while Wheelwright, s. of one of the
WELD. 467
princip. suffer, was able to issue the very next yr. in " Mr. Weld's his
Antitype" observat. on "a paper styled a Short Story of the Rise,
Reign," &c. Even without suppos. any unworthy fear in him that
prompt, what he wish, to have consid. as a sec. ed. of a Book bef.
issued by ano. person, and that, as he says, " the necessity of the times
call for it, and its requisite that God's great works should be made
known," he might deceive himself into the hope, that " Antinomians and
Familists condemn." tho. issued by the same publisher, the same yr. if
publish, without preface, would be taken to be a different composure
from Short Story, with a preface one quarter as large as the whole work.
Well might he believe, that in those stirring times of extreme convul
sion and civil war, nobody would have the leisure and take the trouble
to ascertain, that his publicat. was indeed two faces under one hood.
Next may our scrutiny be applied to his excuse of "being earnestly
pressed by divers to perfect " the work, " by laying down the order and
sense of this story." Perhaps any other man, with half as much literary
skill as T. W. would have giv. a very differ. ORDER to his materials, at
least so far as chronology is concerned. If he did not print the Apology
for the Gen. Ct. of Mar. 1636-7, begin, p. 46 before the result of the
Synod 30 Aug. — 22 Sept. foil. wh. begins on p. 1, he would naturally
(unless blinded by a strong sensibility) have giv. it place prior to the
proced. of not merely a later sess. of the same, but of ano. Gen. Ct. in
Nov. 1637, wh. begins on p. 21. See our Col. Rec. I. 187 to 205.
What good reason for breach of such natural sequence of time can be con-
jectur. I see not, nor is it necessary to think of a lad one ; especial, as in
putting all the matter bef. p. 46, Mr. Weld, the Editor, seems to have
arrang. with high regard to this point, making a blunder of Oct. 2 for
Nov. 2 as date of open, the session of the Ct. that the postponement of
Mrs. Dyer's unhappiness, wh. had been at two public lectures of the first
ch. largely spoken of by Mr. Cotton (as Winth. tells, in his Hist.)
when prob. Mr. Weld and other min. from the neighb. towns (wh.
usually attend, the Thursday lect. were present) 17 Oct. might seem to
be in a fit place. A reasonable cause for this breach of natural order
may be found in the circumstances that led Weld (but would lead no
other person) to think more of Mrs. Hutchinson than any thing, else in
the long agony of the antinom. controv. In Nov. 1637 she was commit,
to custody of Joseph Weld, own br. of the casuist, in the town of Rox-
bury, her banishm. being suspend, until the spring. While thus a pris
oner for more than four mos. all access of husband, childr. friends
denied, exc. with leave of the Ct. as in Col. Rec. I. 207-25 is seen, she
was expos, to visitat. of any holy inquisitor ; and the min. of R. must
have used his sacred office with equal ardor for her conversion, and
468 WELD.
vexation at his ill success. This will explain to milder natures, the
wondrous malediction with wh. he closes the Short Story. Still the
suspicion arises, from the anxious reference to " laying down the order
and sense of the story," that the ill arrangement is due to design rather
than accident. How else could occur the interrupt, on p. 43, where the
parag. ends with the words " issue whereof is set down in the next,"
when we are unable to find the next, and connect, thread for more than
fifteen pages onward, or a chasm of near one quarter of the surface of
the vol. Would not any ingenuous mind, on sec. reading, become sus
picious at the apparent anxiety express, in that " addr. to the Reader "
(whether spring, from fear or ill-will), lest the writer of the long preface,
might be tkot. to have had too intimate connex. with the production of
the ensuing short story ? Words are liable to misapprehens. we all
know, from carelessness or ignor. of him who uses them ; but especially
when equivocat. is resolv. on ; and in writing much more than in oral
speech, we wish for precision, not ambiguity. Yet an author's idea may
be mistaken when he intended to be punctiliously precise, tho. less fre
quent, than if he be habitual, careless. His words convey sometimes
more, at others less than he intend. Of course two readers may obtain
from the same words quite dissimilar impressions. A recent example
will illustrate. In note 1, on p. 238 of Winth. I. my first ed. 1825, I had
printed this remark. " The work has not, I presume, been often quoted
within a century." Of course the same words stand in the next ed.
1853. Citing this passage, the writer, careless or over cautious, of the
review in Geneal. Reg. 1854, adds, " and yet we know that it has been
very often quoted within a quarter of a century" On cursory perusal,
this may, in one man's opin. seem a contradiction ; while a slower reader
would perhaps give it a very differ, name. If the two readers call for
solution of the oracular ambiguity of the writer, prob. a short minute's
explanat. would make their judgments agree.
Now to conclude the point of priority of issue — the fictitious title-
page " Antinom. and Fam. condemn. " assum. in Geneal. Reg. to be
" no doubt a printer's error," as if by fortuitous concourse of atoms, it
fell into that place, I had presum. to be unique, having only heard of the
single copy in the Coll. Libr. I have gain, recent knowl. of ano. copy
in the collection of Rev. Dr. Choules, since his d. together with his copy
of Short Story, dispers. by auction. Whatever value, more or less, was
then due to my infer, from the Coll. copy, as a device to cover Weld's
connect, with the Book, is of course doubled, and proportional, weaken,
is the assumpt. that it was " no doubt printer's error." Evidence posi
tive, is, also, obtain, that the Choules copy of Short Story, with the note
to Reader, Preface, and P. S. and ano. own. by Col. Aspinwall, which-
WELD. 469
ever of the two were first struck off, came both from the press BEF. the
delusive publicat. of the same work under the title of " Antinomians,"
&c. WITHOUT the malignant preface. The testimony is indubita. it
appeals to the eye ; and tho. the form of ea. of the 66 pages in all the
copies is unchanged, slight correct, of errors in the earlier ones are
traced clearly in the later. For instance, the sig. of p. 1 of Short Story,
in the copies of Aspinwall and Choules, is C. 2 ; — of p. 3 is C. 3, and
so onwar/1 to p. 65 wh. is L. 2, whereas the two copies of Coll. and
Choules of the same work, under the NEW title without Preface, begin,
(as does the Athenaeum copy with the Preface and old title) with B. for
sig. of p. 1, and so proced. to p. 65 wh. is K. Will any sagacious ob
server doubt about priority ? Each of the copies, of so great rarity, has
worth of its own ; and that of our Athena3um, tho. wanting the four last
pages, derives high value from the notes in sev. places, writ, by Thomas
Prince above one hundred and twenty yrs. since, especially his testimon.
on the title-page, " Preface and conclusion by Thomas Welde." This is
the well-kn. handwrit. of the Annalist. My presumpt. is that this iden
tical tract was once his, for in his own catal. he inserts, in its proper
place, "T. Welde's Short Story, &c. London 1644," and it is not now
found in his N. E. library.
A very valua. copy of the unmutilat. work, own. by Charles Deane,
concurs with the Coll. copy depriv. of its Preface, and issued under the
new name, in every word and letter, monk or friar, or other irregularity,
like the imperfect copy of the AthenaBum, exc. as bef. explain, in the
changed place of a single word, slighted, on p. 62, that requir. no edito
rial cunning, but must have been done by a compositor. Will any one
doubt that Mr. Deane's copy (after the Preface, wh. is not seen in the
Coll. copy) was struck off from the same forms as that, when he com
pares not pages merely, but words, and even letters in each, as on p. 12,
the remarkab. first letter of Error 65, unlike any other in the long enu
meration, or p. 4, the strange initial of Confutation 19, or asks, without
expecting answer, why the letter C. should have different shapes,
proudly beginning Confutat. 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 13, 15, 18, 20 to 40 inclus.
42-56 inclus. 61-65 inclus. 68-75 inclus. 81 and 82, in ITALIC TYPE in
each of the books, while it subsides into the modest Roman in 4, 5, 8, 9,
and all the others ? Similar exact conformity as to the spelling of the
word, according to the then established usage, Errour, is found in both,
and similar, also, is the use or non-use of the double e in be, he, me, she.
For instance " Antinomians and Familists " of the Coll. Libr. has the
important word, for the first twenty times that it heads a parag. p.
1-4 spelled without u ; but the next nineteen times the u creeps in ; the
VOL. iv. 40
470 WELD.
ensuing twenty-seven times it is ejected ; fourteen times next follow, is
bless, with u ; and lastly No. 81 is written with five letters, and No. 82
with six ; while in every one of them Mr. Deane's copy of Short Story
agrees. More striking is this conformity, because apparently earlier
copies vary much in such petty particulars. The solitary, abnormal E.
in Mr. Dean's copy, Error 65, changes places with Col. Aspinwall's E.
in Error 72, and so no complaint of partiality can arise.
Still, it may be said, the identity of Deane's " Short Story " with
Coll. "Antinomians and Familists" being established, nothing is yet
clearly shown to prove, wh. first came from the press, but only that,
whichever was first, the other follow, very soon, perhaps in few hrs. or
even minutes. Now by comparing with Deane's copy (that has the
preface) that of Aspinwall (wh. is equally complete) it may easily be
seen that A's. is several hours, or even days, earlier in its issue. But
bef. taking up the preface, where the diversity is greater, let the curious
student look at two or three small points in the body of the work, wh. is
identical in substance, and seeming, in letter also, with the Coll. tract
that wants the preface. On p. 1 in the Confutat. 4 and 5, the citation
from the prophet Isaiah viii. 20, in A's. copy writ. JEsa, in D's. and Coll.
copies becomes Esay ; p. 2, under Error 8, Corinth, in A's. copy, is prop
erly shortened in the other two to Cor. — p. 3, line 5, true (in the brack
ets) is changed from Italic, as it is in A's. copy, into Roman letters to
conform with other Roman letters in the same passage of the other
copies; p. 21, in the blunder of date of the term of Court (wh. could
not have been mistak. by Gov. Winth.) October in A's. copy is abbrev.
in the others to Octob. Weld in London wrote the wrong mo. P. 33 in
two places, A's. copy has Hutchinson, but in seventeen other places the
name is Hutchison, without n in sec. syl. while the other copies give the
name every time without that letter, so preserving uniformity betw. spell
and sound ; p. 35, the rule " I permit not a Woman to teach," in A's.
copy is print, in the Italic; in the other two, in Roman character, con
formably to the rest of the page, and the cap. W. of A. is reduced in these
to a small letter ; and other examples abundantly serve to prove, that
A's. was the earlier impression, correct, by the compositor in later ones.
The texture of the paper in the different copies seems different, Aspin
wall's being manifest, coarser. The top of Aspinwall's p. 7 is printed
9, and 10 is used for 8, 11 for 9, and so on, until, by giv. 15 and 16
twice, his copy agrees with others, in all the later pages ; but the other
copies throughout have a military accuracy of count. A correct, copy
may certain, well seem later than one less correct, and instances enough
may be seen in that of Col. A. having double e, where Mr. Deane's has
single e, as in the passage on p. 62, so oft. refer, to, the latter reads " she
WELD. 471
had so much slighted " when the former adds an e to the first word, and
crowds ano. e bef. i in the last word. May I not suggest, with becoming
modesty, that the better copy is the later ?
Yet more direct is the evidence (to the same point) derived from
what printers call overrunning or spacing out, to improve the appear
ance of a line or a page. Several such I pass by in the first fifteen
pages, as also words chang. from Italic to Roman letters, but on 16th p.
the top line of Aspin wall's copy contains at the end the citat. " Acts 15 :
9," wh. is made the whole of sec. line in the others. Then to equalize
the number of lines in the respective pages, the last line of A's. copy
becomes first of p. 17 in the others. Many more might be quoted, but
beside that it would be tiresome to do it, the GREAT evidence of unlike-
ness of beginning and ending of lines, without changing word or letter,
exc. in space, is found in the preface. Let the introduct. note to the
Reader, sixteen lines in A's. seventeen in D's. copy, be compar. in the
two books by laying one alongside of the other, and the same heavy mass
of ornament at the top of the page is seen, — as well as the beautiful
decoration around the big I. with wh. Weld opens in ea. — the types
are the same in every letter, exc. that " straite of time " in A's. copy
gains one letter in D's. by spell. " straight" Yet, altho. the initials
append. (T. W.) are identical in both, the technical sig. A. 2 in Aspin-
wall's is deficient in Deane's ; so also A. 3 on the p. next but one of A.
in D's. appears * 3 ; and the page in A's. copy with sig. B. has two stars
in D's. copy instead of a letter, and so onward, until the page last but
one of the preface in A's. copy, with sig. C. becomes sig. A. and last but
two in D's. copy. Of the earlier impress, every one of the lines is
overrun, and spaced out in the later. The same cap. I. imbedd. in an
ornam. wh. is seen in the opening of note to the reader for both copies
of A. and D. appears the first letter on p. 1 of three copies of Aspinwall,
Coll. and Deane ; .but in the third the color of the decoration is very
much darker than in those two. Very great variety is seen in the
preface, especially in the ornament across the first page, and the types
for title, while hardly a letter is changed, and the forms plainly are the
same ; that is, the types were never distrib. A's. copy gives the first
word " AFter," while D's. uses Italic caps, for the whole word ; and the
first letter is twice as large in the latter copy, and fivefold more decorat.
Nine lines of the first page run over from Aspinwall's to the sec. of
Deane's ; and the last nine lines on the next of A. become ten lines in
D. and twelve lines at the foot of next p. in A. swell into fourteen upon
the top of the foil, in D. The accumulat. is seventeen on D's. next page,
eighteen on next; but with that number the addition ceases; and the
Col's, awkward squad is made to dress regularly in lines thus altered ;
472 WELD.
that is the last eighteen lines, inclus. of the previous signat. T. Welde,
closing the preface, run over from the foot of Aspinwall's page, and
spread upon the u^per middle of Deane's. Nothing else is seen to
change betw. Aspinwall's and Deane's beyond the trifling amendm. that
a compositor naturally introduces, such as substituting " and " for &, and
reduc. the author's name from Roman caps, to Italic in conformity with
the preced. type. Deane's is the more correct exemplar, but Aspinwall's
for its very incorrectness ten times more valuable in petty history.
Will any one but Mr. Drake believe, that all this succession of ap
pearances proves nothing to strengthen into certainty my conject. how
Weld desired to supply a shield for his temerity, or a cover for his cow
ardice ? — that the long title-page of " Short Story " was not print, bef.
" Antinomians and Familists " was writ. ? — that this new title for the
same book instead of a "printer's error " sprang not from design and
intent to mystify ? — or that it is wrong in me, at this late day, to expose
such a typograph. curiosity? Would any London printer in 1644, I
dare to ask, after having a corrected copy of a work, as Antinomians
and Familists (if printed first) is shown to be, immediately after issue,
from the same forms, an impression of Rise, Reign, and Ruin, with a
copious preface and address to the Reader, and postscript, containing
many errors and obliquities of type (in the BODY of same work) as
Aspinwall's and Choules's copies exhibit? Two questions natural, arise
to embarrass those that would glad, seem believers of Weld's ingenuous
ness, — first, wh. was corrector of the press that obtain, aft. three or four
trials, as pure a text for " Short Story," as was enjoy, by "Antinomians
and Familists," if this tract were print, bef. that, when both tracts are
tak. from the same types lock, up into the same form AT LAST, when
" Antinomians and Familists " agree wholly with the latest impression of
the Short Story? — sec. who gave Thomas Weld the right to put a
preface equal to one fourth of the tractate, witluan address to the
Reader, beside "laying down the order and sense wh. in the book is
[was] omit." "as also additions to the conclusion of the book?" He
prob. utter, indirect suggestions, ambiguas spargere voces, that the orig.
work was above six yrs. bef. concoct, in Boston, where Winth. was in
the chair of Gov. when SHORT STORY was purch. in London by the
King's purveyor, perhaps in few hours from its issue, and where I doubt
not the publisher of ANTINOMIANS AND FAMILISTS had act. as the
Editor of what, on our side of the water, when forgotten on the other,
was down to 1843, always called Weld's Rise, Reign, and Ruin.
As to any moral delinquency in my regard " to the memory of Mr.
Welde," that may be left in silence, without fear, to any human tri
bunal ; but in the Court of criticism, I can kiss the rod cheerfully, and
WELD. 473
desire only that my submiss. continue until competent opinion be ob
tained as to whose back it should fall upon. Yet the sentence pronounc.
against my criminality, in exposing the attempt at decept. by Rev. T.
Weld, may lessen the reverence due to the spotless judicial ermine, even
on the shoulders of the historian of Boston. Some readers perhaps will
rejoice that so many hours were giv. to this investigat. by sev. of my
friends, tho. that the collation of both copies of Mr. Choules's vol. under
the true and the spurious title, was confin. of necessity to few hours by
a most cautious reader in the auction room, only few days bef. the sale,
is much regret. ; yet they may hereafter be on their guard against the
artifice of a casuist, that for a season delud. the sagacity of the sub
librarian of Harv. and triumph, over the innocence of Felt.

aged 79. § f j THOMAS, Hartford, an orig. propr. as also at "Wethers-
field, appears first in the Rec. of that Col. Trumbull I. 9, as the sec.
magistr. at the Gen. Ct. 1 May 1637, when war was denounc. against
the Pequots, they hav. long been hostile, and the proportion of 90 men
fixed for the sev. planta. viz. Hartford, 42, Windsor, 30, and Wethers-
field, 18. Yet it is quite uncert. when he came from Eng. tho. satis-
factor. kn. that he brot. three s. John, Thomas, and Samuel, and three
ds. Mary, wh. d. bef. her f. prob. unm, Ann, and Sarah ; equal, uncert.
is the name of his w. though we can hardly doubt whether he brot. one ;
and stranger still is the uncertainty of his prior resid. in Mass. He had
good proportion of the patents for Swampscot and Dover, wh. he sold
Aug. 1 648, to Christopher Lawson. We may then safely conclude, that
a person of his educ. and good est. had not come over the water bef.
1636, and that he staid so short a time at Boston or Cambridge as to
leave no trace of hims. at either, and he was estab. at Hartford bef.
Gov. Haynes left Cambridge. There is, indeed, a very precise tradit.
of his coming, with f. Nathaniel, in the fleet with Higginson, 1629, to
Salem ; but that is merely ridiculous. He took, for sec. w. a. 1 645,
Eliz. wid. of Nathaniel Foote of Wethersfield ; on the d. of Gov. Haynes,
1 Mar. 1654, the Dept. Edward Hopkins being in Eng. on pub. busi
ness, he was made head of the Col. with title of Moderator, but on the
day of elect, in May, Hopkins was chos. Gov. and Welles Dept. tho. H.
never came back to Conn, being tak. by the great Protector into his
Parliam. so that in 1655, hav. had the duty to fulfil in the vacation of
the chair, he was chos. Gov. and Webster, Dept. and in 1656, accord, to
the constitut. of the Col. " that no person be chos. Gov. above once in
two yrs." Webster was made Gov. and in 1657, Winthrop Gov. while
Welles was Dept. both yrs. and in 1658 made Gov. again with Winth.
for Dept. Both chang. places in May 1659, and Welles d. 14 Jan. foil,
at Wethersfield. His wid. d. 28 July 1683; d. Ann m. 14 Apr. 1646,
Thomas Thompson of Farmington, and next, Anthony Hawkins ; and

the Susan and Ellen from London, with young Richard Saltonstall,
aged 30, and perhaps w. Ann, 20; was made freem. 17 May 1637, had

WENBOURNE, WINBORN, or WENBANE, JOHN, Manchester, preach, bef.

Geneal. Keg. IX. 166, where the name stands only with its first syllab.]

11 July 1700, Isaac, s. of the sec. Gov. Winslow. This union is worthy
of note, because in our rec. the two fam. names Winslow and Wensley,
interchaugeab. may be seen confus. a thousand times, the same individ.
in one line call, different from ano. line on same page. Ano. ch. was
John, b. 8 Feb. 1675. From his will, 9 Dec. 1672, we find he was
bound on a voyage, divides est. into eight equal parts, of wh. two to his
w. two to s. Richard, left one ea. to the ds. of wh. the youngest was then
unb. but by codic. in our Vol. VI. made 26 Dec. 1675, is told that " God
hath giv. me two ch. more since the above." Very curious is it, that the
will of this Wensley, in the rec. immediately follows that of Samuel Wins-
low, also of Boston, mariner. His d. Mercy m. Joseph Bridgham, Esq.
and next, 8 Dec. 1712, Hon. Thomas Gushing. NATHANIEL, Salisbury,
s. of the first Samuel, b. prob. in Eng. old eno. to be tax. 1650, m. 14 Oct.
1661, Mary Jones, in the will of her f. Thomas, call. Winslow, as memb.
of the milit. force, took o. of alleg. 13 Dec. 1677, bot. of John Alcock,
in 1661 part 1-32 of Block Island. It had been sold to A. by John
Endicott, Daniel Dennison, and William Hathorne, to wh. it was giv. by
Mass, governm. for their serv. in the Pequot war, when the conquest
was made ; and he seems to have been at Block Island 1685. * SAMUEL,
an early grantee, with Bradstreet, Dudley, and others, of Colchester
1638, but not orig. sett, of Salisbury, dignif. with prefix of respect in
1650, when he and s. Nathaniel, and Samuel, were tax. The s. I sup
pose, as well as d. Deborah, with w. Eliz. he brot. from Eng. but other
ch. b. here, were Ephraim, 15 Apr. 1641 ; Elisha, 30 May 1646; and
the w. d. 2 June 1649. He was freem. 22 May 1639, and invent, mode
of mak. salt, to wh. our Gen. Ct. gave encouragera. as in Rec. I. 331
and II. 5, or Felt II. 176. He was rep. 1642, 5, and 53; d. 2 June
1663; and his wid. Ann, a sec. w. m. 1657, wid. of Henry Boade of
Wells, a. 21 Mar. 1677. SAMUEL, Salisbury, s. of the precea. perhaps
eldest, b. prob. in Eng. made his will 1665, but whether he had w. or
ch. is not kn. to me. What wid. W. Sewall refers to, in his diary, sub.
Dec. 1686, Geneal. Reg. VI. 73, when he ment. d. of her s. Jenner in
Eng. is beyond my conject. but it may not prob. be Ann, the wid. of
Henry Boade of Wells or Saco, wh. in 1 657 agreed to m. this Samuel ;
nor should I refer to so unimport. a fact, were it not to save trouble to
some hunter of the Indexes of Geneal. Reg. that Wersley VI. 243,
means the same man. Sometimes this name is confound, with Winslow ;
and almost as oft. the name in Col. Rec. is Winslow, as otherwise.

WENTWORTH, BENJAMIN, Dover, s. prob. youngest of William, by w.
Sarah Allen, m. a. 1697, had William, b. 14 Aug. 1698; Sarah, 16
Apr. 1700; Tamasin, 4 Jan. 1702; Benjamin, 5 Dec. 1703; Ebenezer,

Feb. 1718; and Mark, 30 May 1720; and was drown, in the summer
of 1728. EPHRAIM, Dover, br. perhaps youngest, of the preced. m.
Mary, d. of Ephraim Miller, had sev. ch. but the geneal. in the Reg.
IV. 327, owing to the lateness of bapt. in that ch. of sev. adults, so
that gr.childr. seem to be confus. with childr. was exceeding, difficult, and
elud. the persever. dilig. of lion. John W. of our day, wh. suppos. him
to be the man, whose will of 16 Mar. 1738, was pro. 29 June 1748.
EZEKIEL, Dover, perhaps fourth s. of Elder William, by w. Eliz. thot.
confident, to be d. of Ezekiel Knight of Wells, was taxable at D. 1672,
had six s. and two ds. prob. the foil. Paul, Thomas, John, Gershom,
Eliz. Tamosine, William, and Benjamin, wh. is presum. to be the young
est, bapt. Sunday, 25 Nov. 1722, as capt. Benjamin W. and d. 1714.
GERSHOM, Dover, perhaps third s. of William, taxable 1670, m. 18
Mar. 1696, Hannah French of Salisbury, there had Mary, b. 14 May
1697 ; Samuel, 5 Dec. 1699 ; soon aft. went again to D. there had Eze
kiel, 4 Feb. 1702 ; and Gershom, 4 Apr. 1705 ; and John, wh. was k.
by the Ind. at Rochester, with three others, 27 June 1746. He was
deac. 1717, had good est. and d. 2 Mar. 1731, at Somersworth. JOHN,
Dover, perhaps sec. s. of Elder William of the same, tax. 1668, sw.
fidel. next yr. with his elder br. rem. 1675, or earlier, to York, there m.
Martha, d. of Ephraim Miller of Kittery, had sev. ch. but where b. or
when, can hardly be made out with any satisfact. From York he rem.
to Falmouth, and betw. the first and sec. destr. of that town, i. e. a.
1685, his s. Charles was b. but an elder one, John, had been b. perhaps
at Kittery or York, some time a. 1 677. From the doomed Falmouth, in
the gr. East, war, he had rem. to Dorchester, and spent the resid. of his
days in the part since call. Canton, and there Edward, Shubael, Eliz.
and Abigail, or most of the four may have been 1). He was d. bef. Jan.
1710, when his wid. Martha, gave receipt in full to Judge Sewall, for
all she had ever done for the Punkipaug Ind. Compare the discord,
reports that the unwearied genealog. of the fam. (the Mayor of Chicago)
had to encounter in Reg. IV. 327, VI. 213, and VIII. 246. PAUL,
Dover, s. of William of the same, tax. there 1 682, sold his est. at D.
says the fam. acco. 15 Apr. 1696, then call. hims. of Newbury, but Mr.
WE NT WORTH. 485
Coffin omits him. He belong, to Rowley at that time, where eleven of
his ch. by w. Catharine were bapt. 17 May 1696, said Farmer, but only
ten had been b. at that time. However, he had thirteen, as he caused
them to be put upon rec. at Norwich, whither he had rem. from New
London, if Farmer be right, as he gives him recommend, from R. to that
place, June 1707 ; but prob. Miss Caulkin's would not have been silent on
so good a point, and we may presume his change was only from R. direct
to Norwich. The ch. may have been b. at Dover, Newbury, or Row
ley ; but more import, is the name and date of ea. William, 25 Dec.
1680; Sylvanus, 28 Feb. 1682; Paul, 10 May 1682 (wh. or the two
preced. must be wrong); Ebenezer, 18 June 1683; Martha, 9 Feb.
1685; Mercy, 18 July 1686; Aaron, 13 July 1687; Moses, 17 Apr.
1689; Mary, 25 Dec. 1692; Catharine, 28 July 1694; Sarah, 8 Apr.
1697; Benjamin, 28 Dec. 1698; and Edward, 20 June 1700. He was
liv. May 1746 (but his w. was then d.), and d. bef. Jan. 1751. See
Reg. VII. 265. SAMUEL, Dover, eldest s. of William of the same, tax.
1659, sw. fidel. 1669, freem. 1676, by w. Mary, whose fam. name was
prob. Benning, and perhaps she was d. of Ralph, had Samuel, b. 9 Apr.

made Lieut.-Gov. of the Prov. ; Mary, 5 Feb. 1674; Ebenezer, 9 Apr.

SYLVANUS, Dover, one of the younger s. of Elder William of the same,

can, but why the est. on wh. he was liv. 1693, was then giv. by his f. to
s. Benjamin, unless he took dislike to Sylvanus, may be hard to conject.
nor is any thing more told of him in the fam. acco. See Geneal. Reg.

Cromwell, perhaps d. of Philip of Dover, tho. by extrav. traditi she has

pro. 8 July in that yr. 1719 as my memo, reads, ment. w. and ch. Timo
thy, Samuel, Mary, and Sarah. But his w. d. near the same time with
him, it is said, and was bur. in the same gr. WILLIAM, Dover, rul. Elder,
had first been at Exeter, 1639, in the orig. combina. with thirty-four
others, and it may be that he had accomp. his fr. John Wheelwright
across the ocean in 1636. He had foil, him from E. to Wells, where he
was made constable 1648, but in 1650 seems to have fix. his resid. at D.

choice, as appears in Bond, 14, is call, uncle of Sarah and Benjamin
Barnard, ch. of Benjamin and Sarah B. To this in the next vol. of
Reg. p. 48 is repl. that perhaps the w. of Paul was a Barnard, sis. of
their f. and again it may be equal, prob. that their mo. was sis. of the w.
of Paul ; so that the chance is two to one against the suppos. Six of

DANIEL, Stamford, propound, for freem. 1670. || JOHN, Boston, was a
single man when adm. of the ch. 12 Sept. 1640, ar. co. 1641, went home,
I suppose, bef. tak. w. for in the rec. of the ch. 26 Sept. 1647 is his dism.
" on desire of the ch. of Pulham Mary in Norfolk, Eng." and in May
1677 was of Harlestone in that Co. Thence he had writ, to capt. Lake,
5 Apr. 1 653, to inq. if the report of the d. of his former teacher, John
Cotton, was true.
WESTLEY, WILLIAM, Hartford 1638, an orig. sett. tho. not orig.

WESTMORELAND, JAMES, Boston 1652, says Farmer, but no more

WESTON, EDMUND, Duxbury, came in the Elizabeth and Ann from
London to Boston, 1635, aged 30; m. a d. of John Soule of the same,

Mosely's corap. Dec. 1675. * FRANCIS, Salem, freem. 5 Nov. 1633, a
friend of Roger Williams ; but whether he came with him, or when, or
whence he came, is unkn. nor have we the elate of his join, the ch.
He was rep. at the first Gen. Ct. that was attend, by dep. but was unfor
tunate in his w. wh. was punish, by the bilboes, tho. her offence was, as
Felt presum. Eccles. Ann. I. 341, "of a religious character," and he
fell into the impractica. notions as to the duty of separat. of chhs. and
went to Providence with Williams, there was one of the founders of his
eh. but in few yrs. disagreed with him, and symboliz. with Gorton,
Wicks, Holden, and others, rem. with them to Id. a little down the Bay,
purchas. from the Ind. now Warwick, was denounc. by the authority of
Mass. seiz. and brot. prison, to Boston, by Ct. sentenc. Nov. 1 643, as in
Rec. II. 52, to be kept at labor in Dorchester, with suffic. irons to pre
vent escape ; and liberat. at last, thro, fear of his influence over his
keeper's relig. sentiments, wh. under threat of death he was prohibit.
from attempt, to pervert, d. bef. June 1645, leav. no issue. FRANCIS,
Plymouth, stands in the tax list for Jan. 1633, but not in that of next yr.
nor is more told of him in any place within my knowledge, unless he be
the same as was call, at Duxbury, Francis West. JOHN, Salem, join,
the ch. 1648, being then 17 yrs. old, if the fam. tradit. be correct, wh.
seems very prob. that he came in 1644, aged 13, from Buckinghamsh.
Still we must be careful to doubt in proper places, for the same valua.
testim. notes on his gr.-st. " that he was one of the found, of the ch. in
Reading." Now we kn. the falsity of this, for he could be only 14 yrs.
old on that event. He had rem. to Reading, prob. bef. m. and his early
ch. were carr. to Salem for bapt. they were Sarah, b. 15 July 1656, bapt.
10 May 1657; Mary, 25 May 1659, perhaps d. very soon, certain its
bapt. is not found at Salem first ch. ; John, 9 Mar. bapt. 29 Aug. 1661 ;
and Eliz. bapt. Oct. 1663; Stephen, b. a. 1665; and perhaps Samuel,
and Thomas, as Eaton in Geneal. Reg. II. 48, indicates. In 1691 he
was adni. freem. and d. 1723. MATTHEW, Providence 1644, may be
the same man call. Matthew West. STEPHEN, Reading, s. of John, had
Stephen, and d. 1753, aged 88. See Geneal. Reg. I. 278. THOMAS, a
London merch. had engag. in plant, a col. in 1622 at Weymouth, but
his sett, were very incompet. persons, much disqualif. by former habits of
life and charact. the next yr. on visit to the country, he was dishearten,
and gave up his hopes, went home, and in the gr. civ. war, d. at Bristol.
Of this name Farmer notes fifteen gr. in N. E. coll. up to 1834, of wh.
I find only four at Harv. and one at Yale. Oft. it is writ, as the sound
was Wesson.

Charlestown. He seems to have preach, at Duxbury, but bee. min. of

Virg. with w. Eliz. a. 1676, had Joan, Ann, Theodosia, Eliz. Martha,
Lydia, and Samuel ; but it is thot. that if not more, the eldest two were
b. in Virg. Great uncertainty attaches to almost every thing he said or
did, as is found oft. in regard to those wh. emig. from a dist. country,
and liv. to gr. age. Potter says he knew Hebrew, Greek, &c. and d. a.
1719 or 20, aged a. 104. It would have been strange, if more than one
myth had not sprung out of his grave. My first exercise of caution
would be to examine the means of reducing his yrs. by 20 or near, for
his only s. it is said, d. a. 1782, and it is quite improb. that when he was
b. the f. was much beyond 70. Beside that his w. d. 8 or 10 yrs. bef.

sustain his credulity, supposes he may have been one of the regicides.

participat. some hours in the mockery of trial, bef. its end, among ail of

Cromwell's iron will was compel, to strip him, so odious had the tyranny
grown. He fled from Eng. on the restorat. and with his s.-in-law, Wil

JOHN, New London 1667, merch. was very enterpris. in foreign trade,

a. 1692, Richard Steere. JOHN, Concord, made freem. 21 Mar. 1690,
and ano. JOHN, of Concord, made free the next day, may have been s.
of George, or of Obadiah, or of either of the other fams. of this name
in that town, where liv. betw. 1650 and 1680, thirty distinct ones, as
Farmer quotes Shattuck to verify. JONATHAN, Newbury, s. of David
of the same, took o. of alleg. 1678, rem. to Rowley, there own. good
est. 1691. JOSEPH, Concord, freem. 13 May 1640, by w. Eliz. had
Ephraim, b. 14 Apr. 1640, d. at 2 yrs.; Joseph, 1 Dec. 1641, d. in few
mos.; and Mary, 20 Sept. 1643; yet the rec. says her mo. was bur. two
mos. bef. and by w. Sarah he had Rebecca, 6 Sept. 1645. Farmer
thinks he may be the man wh. d. at Newbury, 13 Oct. 1659, that seems
less prob. to me than an alternat. propos. by him in MS. that he was k.
by the Ind. 22 Aug. 1675 or 6, at Lancaster. JOSEPH, Boston, a tailor,
freem. 1672, was prob. s. of Thomas of the same, and a householder
1695. JOSEPH, Newbury, s. of Roger of the same, m. 24 Sept. 1685,

and perhaps more, may have rem. JOSEPH, Milford, s. of Thomas first
of the same, was there liv. 1687-1700; but of his fam. no acco. is
obtain. There was a Joseph, a physician at Salem 1704. JOSHUA,
Concord 1636, says Farmer, but I fear the date demands 20 or 30 yrs.
addit. for by w. Eliz. it is seen that he had Joshua, b. 1663, d. at 3 yrs. ;

man, had Eliz. b. 1 Aug. 1642; Miriam, 28 Mar. 1647; Samuel, 28
Apr. 1649; Moses, 5 July 1651; Mary, 13 Sept. 1655; and Joanna,
1659. His inv. bears date 1 Mar. 1698, but his will of 1690. Perhaps
wrong date is giv. to Miriam, for she m. 1667, James Blackman. He
may have liv. at New Haven 1643. MOSES, Stratford, s. of the preced.
m. 28 Oct. 1674, Sarah, eldest d. of Caleb Nichols, but long it was thot.
she was w. of Daniel Brimsmead ; had Moses, b. 8 July 1675; Caleb,

set or Pa^'gasuck, and liv. there short time in 1664, but usually resid.
at M. waT lieut. rep. 1670 and 1, had large est. and d. 26 Nov. 1672;
and his wid. d. Jan. 1673. His will made eight days bef. his d. provides
for w. Joan, s. John, and his ds. Nathaniel and his d. Esther, wh. phrase
may mean no more than w. of N. and s. Ephraim, Thomas, and Joseph.
No d. could be nam. and the s. Samuel and Obadiah d. in early man
hood. He ment. also, William, Thomas, and Sarah, childr. of his br.
William of Stratford. THOMAS, Lynn or Salem, may have been the
passeng. in the James, embark. Apr. 1635, call. serv. of Austin Clement ;
or any other of the well-diffus. name. Perhaps he had s. Isaac.
THOMAS, New Haven 1644, took o. of fidel. 1 July, was accomp. by s. of
the same name, but one or both were not so well educat. as most of the
sett, for the signature is found with a mark only ; yet no ment. of w. or
ch. appears on rec. wherein we read that " old Thomas Wheeler " d. 22
Jan. 1673. THOMAS, Stonington, perhaps br. of John of New London,
may have gone with s. Isaac, wh. was b. 1646, from Lynn or other town
of Mass, not a few yrs. bef. 1669, when he was propound, for freem. was
rep. 1673, and next yr. with his w. Mary, unit, in gather, a ch. for Rev.
Mr. Noyes, of wh. he was one of the seven pillars ; had also Sarah and
Eliz. both m. the latter to sec. John Gallop of Stonington; and d. 1685,

says his gr.-sf. in his 85th yr. THOMAS, Fairfield 1645, was a lieut. in
1 653, came from Concord with first sett, bring, w. Ann, and ch. prob. all
adult, or marriageable, exc. one or two, and perhaps his eldest s. Thomas
may not have accomp. the f. At least from his will, pro. 23 Aug. 1654,
wh. we read imperfect, as part of the rec. in this place is burn, it is clear
that the est. in Concord, old homestead, was giv. to Thomas ; Fairfield
est. to John ; with notice of wid. and three ds. of wh. Hannah, the
eldest, m. a. 1639, James Bennett, had two ch. at Concord, and was
now d. leav. four ; ano. was Sarah Sherwood ; and a third not m. with
out name. His wid. in her will of 21 Aug. 1659, pro. Oct. foil, names
eldest s. Thomas, and ch. THOMAS, New Haven, s. it is presum. of
the first Thomas of the same, since they are ment. as tak. o. of fidel.
on the same day, had Thomas, b. 21 Apr. 1652 ; and certain, one other
ch. if not more, bef. or aft. and d. Dec. 1656, as seems prob. bee. the
inv. of £200. was dat. 2 Jan. foil. His wid. Alee or Alice m. 1657,
Josiah Stanborough, or Stanbury of Southampton, L. I. THOMAS,
Boston 1674, may be the same man as THOMAS, Charlestown, a house
holder 1677, prob. s. of the first Isaac. THOMAS, Concord, rn. 10 Oct.
1657, Hannah Harrod, had Hannah, b. 25 Oct. 1658, d. within 10
mos. ; Thomas, 1 Jan. 1660; and John, 2 Sept. 1661; perhaps others ;
was tythingman 1680, and freem. 1690. THOMAS, Milford, s. of
Thomas of the same, was propound, for freem. 1671, and liv. there aft.
1687; but no details of his fam. are acquir. Of his cousin, THOMAS,
Milford, s. of William of Stratford, the same deficience is felt. * TIMO
THY, Concord, freem. 13 May 1640, ens. in 1646, was a capt. late in his
days, but more oft. call, lieut. on rec. rep. 1663, and very oft. aft. d. 10
July 1687, aged a. 86, as the gr.-st. tells ; had Sarah, b. 22 June 1640;

prob. others, perhaps TIMOTHY of Concord, freem. 1677, for one, wh. m.
29 June 1670, Ruth Fuller, and d. 7 June 1678. TIMOTHY, Concord, the
freem. of 1690, had, I suppose, f. of the same town, but my inabil. to
point him out among the scores of Concord Wheelers may be excus.
WILLIAM, Stratford, br. and I think, younger, of Thomas sen. of Mil-
ford, prob. rem. from Concord with him, had w. Sarah, ch. William,
Thomas, and Sarah ; rem. to New Jersey, soon fell ill, and the w. and

WHEELWRIGHT, JOHN, Braintree, bred at Sydney Coll. Cambr.
where he had his degr. 1614 and 18, was min. at Belleau, near Alford
in Co. Lincoln, whence with his w. Mary, sis. prob. of William Hutch-
inson, and of his ch. certain. Thomas, Catharine, and prob. Samuel,
perhaps all exc. John, he came to Boston in the same ship with Rev.
Samuel Whiting, arr. at Boston, 26 May 1636, and on 12 June foil, he,
his w. and the wid. Susanna Hutchinson, her mo. as I judge, unit, with
Boston ch. and on 25 June 1637, his d. Mary was bapt. But the long
troubles of the antinoin. controv. had begun, and being banish, with his

justly call, the founder, being the first signer of the civil combinat. on
Friday, 4 Oct. 1639 ; there prob. had Rebecca and Hannah, and at his
next home, prob. Eliz. and Sarah. When the N. H. planta. came under
rule of Mass, in 1642, he rem. to Wells, but aft. reconcil. with Winth.
and the rest of the governm. went 1647 to be collea. in the serv. of the

Oliver Cromwell, wh. had been intimate with him at the Univ. but he
came back soon aft. the restorat. and was sett. min. 9 Dec. 1662 at Salis
bury, there d. 15 Nov. 1679, aged above 80 yrs. Of his s. John it may
be presum. that he was oldest ch. and never came to our side of the
Atlantic, but was a scholar, perhaps a preach, in Eng. wh. publish, at
London, a vindicat. of his f. in Nov. 1645, against the bitter aspersions
of Thomas Welde, and very likely may have thot. it useful to display
equal spirit. I can have no doubt that he was d. bef.'the will of 'his f.
His will of 25 May preced. pro. 26 Nov. foil, names s. Samuel, but not

first Theodore Atkinson, Mary White, d. of Edward Rishworth, Mary
Maverick, and William, Thomas, and Jacob Bradbury. In Lincolnsh.
and in Maine he had est. to bestow in beq. to heirs, but he thot. very little
of any in N. H. Several of these seem here not to be represent, but
prob. they had been provid. for at earlier days, or were d. without heirs.
We must look for fuller acco. to the will (made twelve yrs. bef.) of his
bach. br. Samuel Hutchinson. Of the six ds. with considerable confi
dence, I assign hs. to all: Sarah, the youngest, m. 1671, as his sec. w.

1719, at Boston, of the Id. "NOT TO EXCEED TEN MILES SQUARE," call.
Nutfield. That sale he deriv. authty. for, as he said, in the deed of Ind.

where Sir George Downing had bef. been the evangelist. See Felt.
Eccles. Hist. I. 577. But I have had a letter from him of 12 Sept.
1664, at Somer's Islands, to Michael Wigglesworth, who had visit, for
his health that early resort of invalids, and aft. return home, wrote to
his Christian br. there under date of 12 July preced. * NATHANIEL,

tells in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VI. 226. NICHOLAS, the freem. of 10 May
1643, happy to have his name repeat, in the list, in 1642 had resid.
in Dorchester ; but aft. m. Susanna, d. of Jonas Humphrey, sold his
Id. and rem. to Taunton, and no more is kn. of him. NICHOLAS,
Taunton, s. prob. of the preced. m. 9 Dec. 1673, Ursilla (Ursula?)
Macomber of Marshfield, had Nicholas, b. 25 Oct. 1676; Ephraim,
8 Feb. 1679; and Dorcas, 24 Sept. 1680. NICHOLAS, Scarborough,

Mar. 1665, wid. Ann Jones, was freem. 1671, and d. 20 July 1679,
aged 80. * PEREGRINE, Marshfield, s. of William, the first b. of New
Eng. com. into life on board the Mayflower, Nov. 1620, in the harb. of
Cape Cod, was brot. up by Edward Winslow, who m. his mo. Susanna,

Bassett, had Daniel; Jonathan, b. 4 June 1658; Sylvanus (wh. it is
said, d. bef. his f.) ; Peregrine ; Sarah ; and Mercy ; of wh. we kn. not
the order of success, exc. that Daniel is call, eldest s. and Mercy the
youngest d. nor is the date of b. of either told, but Sarah's, Oct. 1663 ;
(tho. of Peregrine we gain approxima. to certain, by the remarka. fact
that he was bapt. 16 Feb. 1724, then aged 64, at the ch. in Brattle str.
by Rev1. William Cooper of Boston). He was ens. of Standish's milit.
1642 (tho. in the list of those able to bear arms in 1643, his name is
unseen, exc. as " Mr. Winslow's man," wh. seems hardly so dignified a
compellation as the first b. of the Mayflower might well challenge), but
lieut. some yrs. later, and capt. 1673, rep. 1660 and 1673; and d. 20
July 1704, as the Boston Newsletter tells, add. " altho. he was in the
former part of his life extrava. yet was much reform, in his last yrs."
His Xvid. d. 22 Jan. 1711. Miss Thomas in her valua. Memorials, says,
his homestead is own. by descend, of the sixth generat. Sarah m.

Miss Thomas in Memo, tells no more. But he may have liv. long at
Boston bef. 1724 the yr. of his bapt. PETER, Milton, perhaps s. of
Edward of Dorchester, if so, the youngest, by w. Rachel had John, b. 3
Sept. 1683; Peter, 20 Feb. 1685; George, 5 Oct. 1686; Sarah, 21
Dec. 1693 ; Paul, 20 Feb. 1695, d. in few mos. ; Paul, again, 24 July

His w. d. 20 Oct. 1732, and he d. 7 May 1743, as my inform, read ; but
more prob. is the inscript. of his gr.-st. 23 Jan. 1737 in his 77th yr.
RESOLVED, s. of William, brot. to Plymouth in the Mayflower 1620, by
his f. wh. d. in few \vks. aft. land, sat down first at Scituate, there m. 8
Apr. 1640, Judith, eldest d. of Mr. William Vassall, had William, b.

he had eight yrs. bef. rem. to Marshfield, and thence, soon aft. her d.
prob. to Salem, m. 5 Oct. 1674, Abigail, wid. of William Lord of S.

male passeng. in the first sh. that brot. colonists to N. E. Various fam.
bee. call. White, claim descent from the Mayflower, some with good
reason, many without. RICHARD, Sudbury 1639, is prob. the same
wh. came from London 1635, a carpenter, aged 30, as the custom-ho.
docket makes it, in the Elizabeth and Ann, but I can tell of him only,
from Barry, that he had sh. in three div. of Id. in that town ; and Col.
Rec. that he refus. to watch in 1642. ROBERT, Charlestown, had d.
bef. 4 Aug. 1635, when admin, was given to William Stitson. See
Col. Rec. I. 153. * SAMUEL, Weymouth, s. of Thomas of the same,
freem. 1666, m. says Shattuck, Mary, d. of Joseph Dyer, but had no
issue, was rep. 1679, and d. soon aft. date of his will, 2 Dec. 1698, of
wh. w. Mary was made • extrix. and the ten ch. of his br. Joseph lega

SAMUEL, Braintree, by w. Ann had Susanna, b. 12 Mar. 1689 ; Mary,
12 Sept. 1690; Lydia, 4 Sept. 1693; Ann, 4 Oct. 1696; Thankful, 17
Apr. 1700; Rachel, 20 Mar. 1703; and Experience, 1 Jan. 1706; and
I find not that the seven sis. had any br. * THOMAS, Weymouth, freem.

Thomas of Cambridge, and d. Sarah. THOMAS, Charlestown, wh. join,
the ch. 22 Mar. 1668, had m. 17 Nov. 1663, Mary, d. of William Froth-

Oct. 1672. The s. Thomas, by will of his gr.f. had devise of one half of
the est. at W. and his mo. the other. Perhaps his wid. m.42 June 1679,
John Dennis. THOMAS, Marblehead 1674. THOMAS, Weymouth, freem.
1681, was prob. s. of the first Thomas, and had w. Mary Pratt, and ch.

seng. to N. had John and James, the latter b. says Coffin, a. 1649 ; rem.
to Haverhill, there d. 1 690, aged 80. Prob. he had other ch. left very
good est. as the inv. shows real £346. with a proport. of personal, far
better than in those days was custom, with our yeomanry, and descend,
especially thro. John's s. John, are very num. and have been among the
most useful and honorable of the Id. WILLIAM, Ipswich, had w. Cath
arine, wh. d. 2 June 1671, and perhaps d. Ruth, aged 30 in 1663, and he
d. 25 Aug. 1684, aged 74. WILLIAM, Boston, a man of some skill in
natural science, from wh. a letter to the Gov. (aft. he had fail, to realize
what Dr. Child promis. a. search for mines, and July 1645 was resolv.
to withdr. from .the country) may be seen in 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. IV.
198. It may amuse, if not enlighten. WILLIAM, Boston, by w. Eliz.
had Cornelius, b. 7 Jan. 1647; and, I presume, m. a sec. w. 4 Aug.

Among the ch. mem. of Boston, No. 511 is Charity White, singlewoman,
adm. 13 June 1641, wh. had ho. and Id. to dispose of at her d. 18 yrs.
later, but prob. no near relat. as she gave most of her property to the
deacons of the same. See Geneal. Reg. X. 265. Seventy-nine gr. of
this name, in 1834, are noted by Farmer, of wh. thirty at Harv. seven
teen at Yale, and thirty-two at the younger N. E. coll.
WHITEIIAIRE, or WHITHEIRE, ABRAHAM, Salem, as Mr. Felt's Ann.
I. 171 ment. under 1638, perhaps stands for Whittier, sometimes appears
Whiteyear. He was 60 yrs. old in 1669.
WHITEHAND, GEORGE, Charlestown, join, the ch. 4 Aug. 1633, was
made freem. 14 May 1634, and no more is heard of him by me.
WHITEHEAD, DANIEL, Huntington or Newtown, L. I. 1650, was one

than, David, and Adam. DANIEL, Newtown, L. I. s. prob. eldest of the

WHITEHOUSE, THOMAS, Dover 1658, m. a d. of William Pomfret, had
Pomfret, to wh. his gr.f. gave est. 26 Mar. 1679 ; and Thomas; perhaps
more. I suppose JOSEPH in Geneal. Reg. IV. 249 is error for Thomas.
He prayed, 1689, for protect, of Mass, and was liv. says Quint, 1694.
Pike's Journal tells of his d. 3 Dec. 1707.
WHITFIELD, EDWARD, Reading 1649, as I learn from Col. Rec. II.
283, but as Eaton does not name him, I judge he rem. soon. HENRY,
Guilford, came to New Haven in July 1639, with Col. George Fenwick
and his lady, and a ch. of famous John Davenport, who, in a letter of
27 Sept. aft. to lady Mary Vere, tells of the ship, that she was the first
"that ever cast anchor in" that place. See Geneal. Reg. IX. 149.
No doubt he was bred up for the pulpit, but of his place of educ. we
are ign. The common acco. of him is, that he was s. of a lawyer, b. a.
lo&^sett. as. min. at Qckham, a. 20 ms. from London, in Co. Surry, but
others say Ockley or Okely in that sh. a. three ms. from the metrop.
was one of the founders of the ch. at G. yet the establishm. of the ch.

then wjQBJLio._Xynn Regis, Co. Norfolk, spent ano. three yrs. as collea.

beck, close to his native place. Aft. bur. his first w. by wh. he had two
s. who d. in Eng. and one d. brot. to our country, Mather says he m. a
d. of Oliver St. John, a Bedfordsh. man. of fam. nearly relat. to the
Lord St. John of Bletso, wh. may all be true, but the writer confuses
the time very cruelly, when he should tell the date of her m. or d. by
saying she " stayed with her worthy consort forty-seven yrs. went in the
seventy-third yr. of his age unto him to whom her soul had been," &c.
Taking the pains to extract meaning out of this gabble, by common arith
metic, we find reason to see that Mather need not be believed literally ;
as thus, W. was in his 73d yr. in 1669, and the union having existed 47
yrs. of course it began in 1 622, wh. is rather early for him who had obt.
his master's degree in 1620, m. one w. had three ch. and lost her. I
have learn, to distrust the author of the Magnalia in all cases where he
employs roundabout instead of direct phraseology, and even in this is
sometimes careless. He came in the same ship with Wheelwright, who
had been his neighbor in Co. Line. arr. 26 May 1636, and sett. 8 Nov.

Lydia had Joshua, b. 14 June 1666 ; and Sarah, 10 Oct. 1668; by w.
Mary had no ch. and she d. 17 Mar. 1672 ; and he m. at Watertown, 30
Sept. foil. Abigail, prob. d. of Thomas Tarbell, had Mary, 1 July
1675, at Groton; thence driv. by the Ind. war, had at W. William, 28
Feb. 1678 ; and for the other ch. we must rely upon his will of 17 Apr.
1713, in wh. he calls them Cornelius, David, Martha, Eliz. and d.
Hutchins, by Bond thot. to be Abigail, w. of John H. and d. Woods,
wh. he thot. was Alice, w. of Nathaniel W. but the last is uncert.
JOSIAH, Wrentham, s. of the first Jonathan, by w. Abigail, who surv.
him, had Josiah, b. a. 1698; Jonathan, a. 1703; and Abigail, 1709;
and he prob. d. Jan. 1718, at least his inv. is of loth of that mo.
MOSES, Sudbury, s. of the first Richard, m. 30 Sept. 1686, Sarah
Knight ; but Bond was able to tell no more ; and Barry is equal, silent.
From investigat. of T. B. Wyman, jr. it is kn. that he had Sarah, b. 2
July 1687 ; Moses, a. 1690 ; Abraham, 29 May 1692 ; Jonas ; Jason, a.
1704; perhaps John; and certain. Lemuel, 1 Aug. 1714. His first ch.

brot. by his f. at nine yrs. old from Eng. m. 19 Mar. 1651, not, as Barry

STEPHEN, one of the first sett, of Huntington, L. I. THOMAS, Ply

learn no more. THOMAS, Watertown, fourth s. of John the first of the
same, brot. from Eng. at six yrs. of age, m. 11 Jan. 1655, Mary, whose
surname may never be satisfactorily shown, any more than that of the
w. of Theophilus Phillips, wh. in my opin. was her sis. but in opin. of a
judic. reader of old rec. seems Kedell, in one place, and Keedell in ano.
had Thomas, b. 24 Aug. 1656 ; John, 19 May 1659, d. same day; John,

Mar. 1667, wh. is said to have m. Charles Chadwick ; Mary, 6 Aug.
1668; Isaiah, 16 Sept. 1671 ; and Martha, 30 Jan. 1674. Date of his
d. was 20 Sept. 1719, but Bond calls him the freem. of 1690, wh. title
may as well, I think, fall to THOMAS, Watertown, s. of the preced. m.
29 Jan. 1679, but Bond says, 18 Oct. 1681, Eliz. d. of George Law

Elizabeth and Anrffrom London, 1635, aged 36, Audry, 45, perhaps his

Hingham, youngest s. of the first James of the same, m. 26 Jan. 1690,

17 Sept. 1708. His wid. m. 23 Mar. 1711, Nathan Farrow. The
sound of this name having its first syl. short or long, at the whim of
some of the descend, who prefer, the long, easily slid into Whiting in
the fourth or fifth generat. as they spread into various towns.
WHITRED, WHITTEREDD, WHITTRIDGE, or WHITRIG, JOHN, Salem
1668, is prob. the same who was k. under capt. Turner, by the Ind. at
the Falls fight, 19 May 1676, and perhaps left posterity. NATHANIEL,

William, brot. by him. from Eng. had w. Florence, of whose d. 1672, a
most doleful report may be seen in the diary of Rev. William Adams,
pr. in 4 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 17. He had a s. 13 yrs. old at that time.
By sec. w. Charity, he had Rebecca, b. 27 May 1689, wh. m. 11 Jan.

Feb. 1665 ; Thomas, 5 Mar. 1667 ; Mary, 12 Feb. 1669 ; and Nathan
iel, 7 Feb. 1670, beside others. His w. d. 11 May 1683, but the date
of his own d. is unkn. and he had bef. 1678, rem. to Maiden. The will
names two oldest ch. and refers to seven others. DANIEL, Maiden, s. of

d. the date 8 Dec. 1694 is told, but his wid. d. 28 Jan. 1732, aged 78.

Aug. 1702. Yet of these ch. few of wh. grew up to adult yrs. all but
one, I suppose, may be by w. Sarah, but he d. 6 Apr. 1702. JOSEPH,
Maiden, br. of the preced. m. 30 Mar. 1687, Joanna Mousall, d. prob.
of John of Woburn, had Joseph, b. 22 Feb. 1689; Joanna, 27 Oct.

more than two yrs. bef." says the ch. rec. wh. next yr. on 18 Nov. ins.

the name is giv. Mary, who was w. of his br. John ; yet by w. Mary
had Mary, b. 26 Apr. 1668; Nathaniel, 26 Sept. 1670; and Rebecca;

Kittery, sis. of Sir William, had Pelatiah, b. 20 Jan. 1708; William,

made his will 8 Feb. preced. in wh. he names w. Hannah, eldest s.
Thomas, then in Eng. if alive; Daniel; Nathaniel, bapt. 1 May 1636;
John, 11 Feb. 1638; and Eliz. beside five other minor ch. Benjamin;
Thomas ; Samuel ; Pelatiah ; and Abraham. Why he call, two s.
Thomas might, by conject. be explain, as if the last five were b. by the
sec. w. sure, and the first five were by w. Sarah, wh. d. in Eng. and for
the boys the opinion would answer better than for the d. Yet perhaps
few, if any of the ten, were b. in this country ; at least, he is not found
among inhabs. of C. in 1658 ; tho. he may have liv. in some other town
of Mass, at that day, as he did few yrs. bef. at Reading. The wid. m.

JOHN, Newbury, perhaps s. of Thomas of the same, d. says Coffin, 20
Feb. 1699. The Prob. rec. supplies us with inv. of ano. JOHN, perhaps
of Beverly, s. of Abraham, wh. d. 29 Dec. 1681, leav. no w. or ch.
but the admor. was order, to pay his minor brs. Isaac and Abraham.

John of Salisbury, had Reuben, b. 17 Mar. 1686; Ruth, 14 Oct. 1688;
and I presume he is the man who m. June 1710, wid. Mary Ring.
THOMAS, Newbury, is, in my opin. that passeng. in the Confidence from
Southampton, 1638, call. serv. of John Rolfe, and by Henry, br. of
John R. in his will nam. as " kinsman," tho. in Geneal. Reg. V. 440,

1679. Mary m. 21 Sept. 1666, Benjamin Page; and Ruth m. 20 Apr.
1675, Joseph True. A descend, in our day, the poet of Haverhill, has
" warbled his native woodnotes wild," with success equal, by very few of
our bards. Sometimes it is seen Whitheire or Whitheare.

looseness in the fam. story, of the Boston Weekly Journal of Jan. 1730,

to believe, that his mo. " came over, and was deliv. of a s. wh. she nam.

WIFFE or WIFE, HUMPHREY, is by Farmer, ins. in MS. on authty.
of Mr. Felt, as one of Essex Co. d. bef. 1640. Against this surname
our ears instinctiv. protest; yet to sustain the reading of Mr. Felt,
might be cited Geneal. Reg. IV. 248, among the assessmts. of tax
July 1657, of Dover, is one for Nathell wife, tho. it must be fear, that
this is too indistinct to be valued much ; and \vh. a most sagacious
reader of our old MSS. presumes to be Nicho. Wise, the freem. of
1645. Then comes in Geneal. Reg. VI. 377, from the pub. reg. pur
port, to transcribe rec. of Roxbury, Jane Wife, wid. bur. 1637 ; but my
copy of the town rec. giv. it plain Wise, detracts from the weight of
this item. She prob. was wid. bef. coming, and the rev. patriot Wise,
min. of Ipswich, drew his orig. from Roxbury, where also were brs. and
sis. Less reliance may be giv. to Geneal. Reg. VIII. 346, from the
same public docum. purport, to copy Cambridge rec. John Wife d. 9
Sept. 1644, bee. Harris, 1G8, quot. the town rec. makes it Wise.

|* THOMAS, Dover, one of the earliest mem. of governm. there, 1631,
went home next yr. and show, regard for Mass, in a letter of Aug. to
Emanuel Downing, and Nov. to Sir John Cooke, wh. are print, in 3
Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. came back in Oct. 1 633, with agency of the
puritan peers, Say and Brooke, prob. bring, w. Catharine, by wh. he
had Andrew, b. 1635; Mary; and Thomas; all bapt. 20 Sept. 1641,
and prob. others, as Henry Sherborne is said to have m. his d. Sarah.
He favor, the union of the N. H. people with Mass, was rep. 1645 for
Hampton, and in 1650 chos. an Assist, in wh. office he contin. serv. till
three yrs. bef. his d. 1667. In the artifices for support of the spurious
deed of the larger part of N. H. 17 May 1629, Wiggin's name is used
with Walter Neale's in a forged letter of 13 Aug. 1633, print, in Belkn.
N. H. Vol. I. of first Ed. in Appendix 6, with the valua. letter of Cot
ton Mather, in aid of the cause, whether with his eyes open, or only
winking, may be disput. The docum. is self-destruct, inasmuch as
Wiggin was agent of the party in Eng. oppos. in interest to Mason,
whose agent was Neal, but far more open to object, by one inquir. only
after the truth, as purport, to be writ, by them at Dover, call. Northam
m the trickery, when Neale had one week bef. sail, for Eng. from Bos
ton, and Wiggin was in Eng. embarking at Gravesend in the James for
Salem, where he arr. 10 Oct. after eight weeks' pass. See Winth. Hist.

ter, was freem. of Mass. 1669, but very little is kn. of him exc. that his
w. was Sarah, sis. of capt. Walter Barefoot, yet in 1690 he was one of
the many petnrs. for the renewal of Mass, jurisdict. against wh. Bare
foot had act. and ch. were Thomas, Sarah, and Susanna.
WIGGLES WORTH, EDWARD, New Haven 1638, had come in Aug. of
that yr. to Mass. brot. w. Esther, perhaps sis. of Rev. John Rayner,
and s. Michael, b. in Eng. 28 Oct. 1631, and taught his rudiments by
famous Ezekiel Cheever, H. C. 1651, had there, Abigail, bapt. Dec.
prob. 13, 1640, was a man of good repute, and comfortab. est. d. 1 Oct.
1653. Of his last sickness he gave acco. stat. his age 49, in a letter to
John Winthrop, 18 July bef. his d. wh. may be read in 3 Mass. Hist.
Coll. IX. 296, 7. In his will, made six days bef. that let. he names
only ch. Michael, and Abigail, to wh. he gives £160. and £80. severally,
but directs that her share be paya. at 20 yrs. of age, and all the resid.
to w. Esther, wh. tho. constit. extrix. was, with her d. commit, to the s.
then resid. at Cambridge, studying for his profess, and an officer of the
W I G G L E S W 0 II T II . 541
coll. with this injunct. " that he do endeavor so far as he may with
conven. have them near unto him, wherever it please God to cast him."
By the inv. his est. appears £401. 14s. 2d. In his diary, the s. writes
" news is brot. to me," Friday, 14 Oct. 1653, " of my f.'s d. My f. d. 1
Oct." From New Haven to Cambridge the news pass, in thirteen days,
while in our time the traveller requires only half as many hrs. At
New Haven the inscript. on his gr.-st, back of the first ch. was alter,
from 1653 to 1678, as the fac simile in Stiles's Hist, of the Regicides
shows, with the vain surmise, that it had been erect, over Edward Whal-
ley, wh. prob. d. after 1670, but earlier than 1675. EDWARD, Cam

town, whose importance was not such as to require the jnent. of it in
the common repts. and prob. never ord. in any place, but taught a sch.

ord. 1654, but aft. serv. at the altar eight or nine yrs. his wretched
health, of wh. the melancholy influence runs sadly thro, his chief poem,
was forced to forego his rain, above twenty yrs. and by first w. Mary,
whose surname is untold (but once erron. thot. to have been a d. of
John Rayner of Plymouth, tho. others suppos. her to have been a
Hobson of Rowley, and certain, was niece of that Rayner, and d. of
Humphrey of Rowley, wh. calls him S. in his will) wh. d. 21 Dec. 1659,

WIGLEY, EDWARD, Concord 1666.
WIGNALL, ALEXANDER, is the name of one who ask. 19 Oct. 1630,
to be adm. as freem. of Mass, and took the o. on 18 May foil, in both
the lists hav. prefix of respect to show that he was either a scholar, or a
man of property ; yet so brief was his sojourn in our country, that we
find not the place, where he sat down. Slight conject. may be rais.
from the circumstance of his standing in ea. roll next above capt.
William Jennison, that he was assoc. with that gent, but at Watertown
he does not appear, and the safest opin. is, that he came in the fleet with
Winthrop, and that he went home soon. Frothingham, 80, names John
Wignall of Charlestown in 1630, and he may be the same person.
WIK, WILLIAM, is a name sign, with very many others of Marble-
head to a petitn. Oct. 1668, against the duties on imported goods.

wretched victims of the civil war, either that importa. of 1652, of wh.
large acco. is seen in Geneal. Reg. I. 377-80, show, the names of most
of a shipload, 272, sold from the shambles the yr. preced. being the yr.
after the fatal field of Worcester ; tho. it may have been his fortune to
have experience of the tender mercies of Cromwell after his victory of
Dunbar in the preced. yr. Whether the Dunbar invoice contain the
names of as many young men as the Worcester, or more, or less, is
unkn. but it is an object of high interest to find that one, out of a hun
dred, outliv. by four or five yrs. their cruel banishment and servitude.

Windsor, br. of the preced. had Samuel, b. 1666 ; rem. to Simsbury, there

cord, rem. to Stratford 1639, says Farmer MS. quot. Trumbull, I. 109,
as authty. for his being one of the first sett. But I presume that is a
mistake for William, whose s. Timothy, a very small ch. certain, even if
not unb. at that time, wh. is on the list of freem. 1669, m. 28 Dec.
1664, Joanna, d. of John Birdseye, had Joanna, b. 1667 ; Phebe, 1669 ;

in Mass, of 7 Dec. 1636, came in the Planter from London, in the ship's
clearance call, linen weaver, aged 34, with w. Margaret, 24, and s. John,
2, but at what town he first sat down, is not cert. We can be sure it
was not Boston, nor Salem, nor Charlestown, nor Dorchester, nor Rox-
bury, nor Watertown, and of the few others Concord seems most likely.
To what part of Conn, he first rem. is unkn. or at what time ; but he is
seen in 1647, as rep. at Hartford, and prob. in a high degree is it, that
he had more s. and ds. Joseph, Samuel, Obadiah, Timothy, Eliz. wh. m.
at Windsor 16 Apr. 1663, Henry Stiles ; and Hannah, wh. m. also at W.
17 Mar. 1665, Daniel Hayden ; Sarah, wh. m. 1665, John Meigs ; and
Phebe, m. 11 Dec. 1669, John Birdseye, jr. of Stratford, so that it is
not improb. that he had chos. W. for his resid. Yet he may have early
rem. to Stratford, where he d. 1652. Some of his descend, have sunk
the last syl. of the ancestor's name.

errors may be found in such places, as she could only be 5 yrs. old

Dighton was sis. of the first w. of Capt. Endicott, wh. is a sad error, as
it was Gov. Thomas Dudley's w. that was meant. Perhaps the histo

suppos. that he was br. of Roger ; but either of these seem to me very

dence, the great assert, of relig. freedom, b. in Wales 1599, as uncert.
tradit. says, and she would make him, partly, at least, educ. at Oxford,
where ano. Roger, or Roderic, was adm. 30 Apr. 1624, wh. was s. of
William, and by Felt in Eccles. Hist. I. 147, receiv. as our N. E. re
former, wh. to me, seems nearly impossib. But a strong prob. is, that
he was not b. earlier than 1605 ; and the fact is, he was bred up at the
Charter Ho. as in mod. days the sch. is call, but when W. was there,
Sutton's Hospital. On that foundat. he was chos. a scholar 25 June
1621, and on 9 July 1624, gain, an exhibition under powerf. patronage.
This we learn from Mrs. Anne Sadler, d. of the gr. lawyer, Sir Edward
Coke, in a collection of letters, at the library of Trinity Coll. Cambridge,
by Williams, writ. a. 1652, to her; she wrote on the back of one of
them (wh. had shocked her devotion to ch. and king) that her f. " took
such liking to him, that he put him to Sutton's Hospitall, and he was the
sec. that was placed there," mean, perhaps by his gr. patron. From this
favor of Coke arose, prob. the tradit. that our benign, founder of Provi
dence had enjoy, the protection of the Lord Ch. Justice of the Common
Pleas, had been support, at the Univ. of Oxford, and stud, the law for
a profession under the great oracle of jurisprudence. But from
568 WILLIAMS.
Winth.'s Hist, we kn. he had been a minister. The exhibition obtain, in
the London Inat. 9 July 1624, seems to disprove his identi. with the stud.
ent. at Jesus Coll. Oxford in Apr. preced. and my ignorance of the rules
and customs of the Charter Ho. forbids me to speak with confidence.
To write his life and illustrate his charact. has long been felt as a duty by
the scholars of the beautiful city he found, and after sev. attempts more
may be said. Professor Elton, wh. sev. yrs. since, publish, his biogr. has
had means of discover, how he had been deceiv. as to the b. and educ. of
the amiable hero ; and we hope for ano. ed. of his vol. If at either of
the Eng. Univ. he was educ. wh. seems very uncert. to me, Cambridge is
entitl. to the honor, rather than Oxford. He came from Bristol, 1 Dec.
1630, in the Lion, and reach. Boston 9 Feb. foil, with w. Mary; and in
few wks. during wh. he was desir. to settle in the ch. of Boston, by
their unanimous choice, in the spring of 1631, as he tells, in a letter
(most characteristic of the writer, equal in value to any one in a thou
sand of our New Eng. epistles) to Rev. John Cotton of Plymouth,
print, in Mass. Hist. Transactions of the Soc. 1855 — 8 pp. 313-6, but
his tender conscience did not dare to officiate to " an unseparated peo
ple." This statement of Williams I accept without hesitat. tho. in a
note on p. 406 of Vol. I. of Hist, of N. E. by Prof. Palfrey, whose eye
had been blessed with the orig. MS. a doubt might have pass. thro, his
mind to extort the remark : " it is very extraordin. that the fact is not
ment. in any record of the time." But no contempo. rec. exc. that of
the Col. would possib. contain it, for no other is in exist. Our earliest
rec. of Boston civil affairs begins abrupt, in the middle of a sentence,
Sept. 1634, preced. pages being lost, yet that is four or five yrs. bef. we
have an orig. ecclesiastic, rec. of any thing exc. bapt. Even the name
of Williams, our gr. reformer, is FIRST read in Col. Rec. Sept. 1635,
being that of his banishm. Vol. I. 160; as ea. of the sev. prior read,
of Roger Williams manifest, refers to the Dorchester man. But quite
concur, with the sense and even phrase of that let. to Cotton is the lang.
of Winth. Hist. I. 53 in the order of Court, recit. that he " had refused
to join with the congregat. [i. e. church] at Boston, because they would
not make a pub. declarat. of their repent, for hav. commun. with the
chhs. of Eng." &c. That order was in Apr. 1631, less than a fortnight
after Boston ch. was left without a min. by Wilson's depart, for home,
and two and a half yrs. bef. com. of Cotton's father. Assuredly lie was
not likely to refuse before he was asked. He next went to be assoc.
with Skelton at Salem, in teach, that congreg. but was more wanted at
Plymouth, in the autumn of that yr. and contin. good pt. of two yrs. to
minister there ; hardly had he got back to Salem, where the people
wish, him as successor of Skelton, bef. his overscrupul. conscience made
WILLIAMS. 569
him and others trouble ; and in two yrs. the affections of his people
could not prevent the Gen. Ct. from banishm. of their teacher. He had
been excommun. at S. for refus. to bring his ch. to bapt. &c. In the
winter of 1635-6, he meekly obey, the cruel sentence, and next spring,
or more prob. in June, laid the foundat. of the prosperous city by him,
with pious emotion, call. Providence. See the opening chap, of Arnold's
Hist, of R. I. There he was usually held in much honor, tho. occa
sional, overborne by antagon. against wh. his revenge was exhaust, in
show, kindness. He always had the friendship of Gov. Winth. tho.
circumstances, consist, with the honor of both, enforced their long and
sad separat. As the Col. agent in London, or chief Magistr. here, he
was equal, discreet and disinterest, to his d. in Apr. 1683. Of his w.

nothing more is ever heard of him, exc. that in 1651, he hot. a ho. of

Mitchell gives Joseph instead of Jonathan. In the absence of the
means of informat. I would suggest the inquiry, if that wid. were not
sec. w. of Mr. Willis, and some of his ch. b. by a former one. Mitchell
says his will, of 1692, pro. 1693, refers to the eight ch. of wh. Hannah
was w. of Nathaniel Hay ward ; Eliz. m. a Harvey ; and Sarah was w.
of John Ames ; further he tells that he had four brs. Jonathan, Law

them can be well discern, thro, the distance. He was the first rep. that

Temperance wh. was bapt. 13 Feb. 1648, unm. yet of inq. for sev.
gr.ch. to wh. he gave legacies (of wh. none but Joseph Phillips is call,
out), obscure diligence may fail of its reward. His w. to wh. he had
giv. power to dispose of some of his prop. aft. her own d. in her will
of 20 Sept. 1680, increases the confus. in part, and lends no clue to
other part, only that one of his ds. Abigail was a. 1658, sec. w. of
Thomas Bill. Other ds. are Lydia Nowell ; Joanna Ellis ; and beside
the darkness that hangs upon gr.s. Michael and gr.d. Marah, tho. we
may guess the former to be s. of Experience, suffic. trouble would
remain in the search for " daur. Pollard's childr." yet the diffic. seems
inextrica. when we find that beyond the thick clouds wherein we would
hunt for the ds. of her h. she scatters all hope of success, by speaking of
her " five own ds." So the only safe conclus. is that she was a young
wid. with five ds. when Michael took her ; but perhaps the ds. m. that
he refers to in his will, may have been, some at least, not his offspr. but
those of the sec. w. bef. their union. MICHAEL, Boston, s. of the

seven ch. as from his will of 27 Sept. 1684, is to be partly learned,

of wh. he was third s. had a prebendal stall, in 1588, from Eton sch.

story of his early days has apocryphal sound, there of Christ's Coll. had
his A. B. 1605-6, and A.M. 1609, as by me in the registry of the Univ.
seen, tho. Mather would have it Emmanuel; and Farmer writes at King's,
where, indeed, may, as the Magnalia tells, have been the adrn. Aft.
serv. as chaplain in sev. houses, he was induct, at Sudbury in the S.
border of Co. Suffolk ; there contin. ten or twelve yrs. but disgust, with
the worship of forms and vestments growing in the ch. he encourag. the
coloniz. of the Mass. Bay, and came 1630, with the Gov. and Comp.
bring, the chart, in the Arbella. His w. Eliz. whose name is not dis
tinct, read in Mather, tho. in his usual roundabout way he says, Magn.
III. cap. 3, p. 42, that W. designed to m. a d. " of the lady Mansfield,
wid. of Sir John," remain, in Eng. prob. with care of the ch. Edmund
first b. (so nam. for his gr. uncle Edmund Grindall, the puritan arch
bishop of Canterbury 1575-83) ; John ; and others, if there were more ;
but when he went back to Eng. and came again 1632, he brot. her and
s. John, but the oldest s. perhaps never was on this side of the ocean.
The w. was sis. of the w. of Robert Keayne, and her br. John with his
fam. got over to Boston, two yrs. later, in poverty ; and torment Keayne
very much, if his will be good evid. as may, partly, be read in Geneal.
Reg. VI. 156. He made sec. voyage to Eng. 1634, and came again in
the summer of 1635, wh. led me to mistake, formerly, the time of his
w.'s coming, as she did not join our ch. bef. 20 Mar. 1636; whereas we
see, that his d. Mary was bapt. 8 Sept. 1633, unless the ch. rec. means a

had request, adm. as freem. 19 Oct. 1630, and was sw. 3 July 1632, and
d. 7 Aug. 1667, and was bur. on the Sunday foil. Of the good desert of
this first min. of Boston, abund. proof is found in the Magn. III. cap. 3,
with some few lamentab. characteristics of the author, perhaps little to
be regard, in derog. from the charact. of W. Yet of one trait in him,
the zeal for the glory of God, as exhib. in " 111 Newes from New Eng."
where the testimony of Obadiah Holmes, the Bapt. confessor, is fully
giv. we must regret that it surpassed the limits of self-respect, as well
as common decency. H. tells aft. his sentence to imprisonm. and cruel
scourg. " as I went from the Bar, I exprest myself in these words : I
bless God I am count, worthy to suffer for the name of Jesus ; where
upon John Wilson (their Pastor as they call him) strook me bef. the
judgm.-seat, and cursed me, saying, the curse of God or Jesus go with
thee." For the imprecation upon the heretic lenity may be extend, as
we hope, by the final Judge, when he cometh in the clouds of heaven ;
but at the tribunal of gentlemen the assault on a defenceless prisoner,
even tho. convict, by his own confess, of the crime of preach, what he
thot. truth, meets no indulgence. Gratitude has always been express,
for this found, of Boston ch. no doubt in some degr. arising from the
munific. contrib. of £1,000. by his br. William 'in Eng. and the most
judicious invest, of part of that sum, as in Col. Rec. I. 128 alluded to,
and may by any minute antiquary be seen in 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII.
228, all assist, in keep, active the generous emotion. The eldest s.^
travel, in Holland and Italy, where he gain, the honor of M. D. but as I
doubt whether he ever came across the sea, I do not inquire for much
detail as to his m. or wh. was his w. nor can I tell more than that he liv.
at London as a physician, d. a. 1658, leav. s. John, and d. Bridget, wh.
m. Nicholas Prideaux, merch. of Barbadoes. His d. Mary m. 5 Nov.
1651, Rev. Samuel Danforth of Roxbury, and next a Buck of Boston
(whose bapt. name eludes my search, for many hours, at var. times), and
d. 13 Sept. 1713. Mather's life is, perhaps, the best of any in his catal.
of min. yet the caution to be used in read, all other parts of the Magn.
must not be neglect, here. In § 19 of that 3d chap, in proof of the
" certain prophetic afflatus, wh. oft. directs the speeches of" men like
Wilson, he refers to the success of John Hull, as foretold by W. bee. of
his attention to his mother " weak in body and poor in est." Mather
had no intent, of casting ridicule upon prophecy, for he was giv. to
showing his ability in the same way, but his fancy, as usual, outran his
judgment; and his memory, great as it was, forever calls on invention to
come to the aid of truth. Hull's mo. Eliz. wh. d. above 16 yrs. bef. M.
was b. is not to be specially mark, as " poor in est." and if the writer
meant Judith the sec. w. of his f. and mo. of the young man's w. (as is
WILSON. 585
most prob.) the panegyric is even less necessa. ; but indeed this sec. w.
d. nine yrs. bef. the b. of the historian. More or less accommodat. of fact
to theory is observ. in other authors than him whose Magnalia is the
monum. to delineate his character no less than his desire, tho. prob. to
few it is ascrib. in equal extent. JOHN, Medfield, s. of the preced. b. in
Eng. Sept. 1621, H. C. 1642, had the benefit of join, the ch. of his f. 3
Mar. 1644, but was not freem. until 1647, ord. as collea. with Rev.
Richard Mather at Dorchester in 1649, but contin. only two yrs. and
was then sett, at M. by w. Sarah had John, bapt. at Boston, 8 July
1648; Thomas, b. 12 Nov. 1652; Eliz. 1653; Increase, 1656; John,

Nov. of that yr. ; beside Susanna, Dec. 1664, wh. m. 1683,. Rev. Grin-

man wh. Barry says came 1651, in the John and Sarah from London.
In so common a name to discern whose s. was that JOHN, the soldier in
Beers's comp. k. by the Ind. with his capt. 4 Sept. 1675, must be very

Sarah Davis. His wid. wh. had childr. by former h. d. Oct. 1673 ; but

OLIVER, from Bridgetown, Eng. Farmer says, was cast away at the Isle
of Shoals in 1664, and gives such good authority as Coffin, for the relat.
A mistake in geogr. of this sort, is not lightly to be imput. to the latter
of these writers, and still less to the former ; but it can hardly be doubt,
that he should have writ. Barbadoes instead of Eng. for Bridgetown is
the chief mart of that island, and no place of the name is found in
Britain. It is almost equal to that of the writer in Geneal. Reg. VIII.
86, wh. would correct the descript. of the bark Bachelor from London,
of thirty-five tons, giv. by Winth. in his Hist. I. 173, to the bark in wh.
Lion Gardiner came, 1635, when the Gov. as in his orig. MS. any one
sees, calls her " a small Norsey bark," meaning a Norwegian built, as to
me it seemed, while by the writer it is shown, that one of the patentees
of Conn. wh. fitted out this bark dwelt at Nosely, Leicestershire, in the
very centre of Eng. Whether the Bachelor could float in any of the
rivulets of the est. of Nosely, that may be thot. not to be deeper than
three or four inches, or in the head waters of the Avon, or the Wei-
land, beside those of the Soar, and a dozen inferior, young tributaries
of the Trent, springing in Leicestershire, that may be half as many
feet in depth, was not perhaps seriously consid. by the author. No
doubt they would serve for sailing to playthings of children. Farmer

wait, for correct, until IX. 328. But this name as well as that of
Wensley is oft. misrepresent, by Winslow ; and the Maiden rec. seem to
me abundant in this mislead. Full as oft. may the wrong be prov. as
the right, if the rec. faithful, copied (as I have the best testimony other
than that of my own eyes), be turn, to in Geneal. Reg. X. 162, 4, 233,
4, 7, and 9, when seven times the occurrence is seen, where right of
three and wrong of four is by me fully believed. In the transcript,
made for Geneal. Reg. VI. 335-8, wherein the scribe fell into mistake
as to the name of every month in the whole list nearly, he found, I sup
pose, the handwriting of this name where it was earliest insert. " Mary

WINSLOW, § J EDWARD, Plymouth, eldest s. of Edward, b. at Droit-
wich, Co. Worcester, 18, bapt. 20 Oct. 1594, as Belknap, Am. Biogr. II.
281, gives the yr. but an ancient bible, erron. said to have been brot. by
him, has a list of the ch. of his f. in wh. all the dates of bapt. purport
to be insert, makes it 1595, yet my suspicion of a slight error was raised
when observ. that 20 Oct. was Sunday in the earlier yr. and Monday
in the foil. Baylies, II. 17, holds to the former yr. and the careful
WINSLOW. 599
authority of Dr. Young in his notes on Chron. of the Pilgr. 46, counts
the same, tho. 274 he adopts the later yr. on the faith of " extr. from the
rec. of St. Peter's ch. in that place" as foil. 1595, Oct. 20, bapt.
Edward, s. of Edward Winslow, b. the previous Friday, adding wh.
was the 19th. Whose blunder this was, is immater. Friday bef. 20
Oct. 1595 was the 17th. But for the yr. it might seem more desirab.
that should be mark, than the day, and perhaps, tho. not prob. it may be
as the informant of Dr. Young gave it, mak. the m. of his parents Nov.
1594. On the first sight of this bible, pasted to its left hand cover is
found the traditionary story of what is call. " Family Record," as in
Gen. Rec. IV. 298, the mind instantly rejects the right to such honor,
inasmuch as the whole rec. was evident, made at once, tho. entries for
eleven yrs. 1595-1606, purport to be expressed; and secondly, the
handwriting is manifestly of four generations later than the Govnr's.
father (who only ought to have made such rec.) could have written it ;
and furthermore the age of the vol. (tho. early part of the old Test, is
lost, and the latter part of the new) is apparent, to a practised eye, at
least one hundred and forty yrs. later than the first child's b. No great
value attaches to such MS. and it has been, in more than three or four
places, correct, by erasures and interim, prob. from presum. transcripts
of the Eng. parish rec. But modern tradit. gives a glorious myth to
this bible, that may be really of the time of George I. tho. to me it
seems more likely an imprint under George II. as if it were in the May
flower, brot. by Edward in his first voyage, at least a century bef. the
paper was made. He had fallen into comp. on a tour in Holland, a.
1617, with the band of puritans at Ley den, and was led to join them,
there m. 16 May 1618, Eliz. Barker, when the Dutch rec. calls him
printer of London, came with her in the little vessel from Delfthaven

Gov. Edward, with wh. he came in the Mayflower, 1620, had lot in the

went home bef. that act ; tho. Dr. Young, Chron. of Pilgr. 275, thinks
he went to Portsmouth. But the indisputab. word of Bradford (in

85 or 6 yrs. From the numb, and dates of many of his ch. I feel contid.
that he had sec. w. as Benjamin, bapt. 15 Apr. 1649; Henry, 9 June
1650; Martha, b. 23 Feb. bapt. 14 Mar. 1652; Esther, 7, bapt. 11
June 1654, prob. d. young; Ruth, bapt. prob. 25 May 1656; but aft.
most patient investigat. Mr. Clapp is sure only of portion of these, as
ch. of John, and thinks the two first nam. may have belong, to his br.
Thomas. No great value attaches to the decision, as neither liv. long.
But John, s. of John was also bapt. 15 Apr. 1649. By his will of 9
July preced. his dec. pro. 1 Sept. foil, arc nam. only s. John ; ds. Han

Deborah seems ment. apart from d. Cutter ; d. Fisher, whose h. is call.

Other est. he had of large extent on our side of the water in Windsor

perhaps d. of Ephraim of Stratford, had Abia; Lucia; William, b. 21
July 1711 ; Martha; and Ephraim; and d. 2G Jan. 1749. As in the
Winth. fam. the choice of f. s. and gr.s. in early days to the office of
Gov. by popular vote is observ. so in later generat. the Conn, steady
habits made Roger and his s. Oliver and gr.s. Oliver their ch. rulers.
Twelve of this name had been gr. at Yale, two at Harv. and two at
other N. E. coll. in 1834, as is noted by Farmer in MS.
WOLFALL, Or WOOLFALL, RlCHARD, Boston 1677, of wh. I see
nothing but that he is nam. in the will of the first Thomas Oliver, 1653,

line.
WOLFE, or WOOLFE, EDWARD, Lyme 1671. PETER, Salem, freem.
14 May 1634, was so much of a milit. spirit, as hardly to fail of being
chos. lieut. in 1646, yet in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VII. 256, with w. Mar

1675. One Susanna W. with sev. others, was order, to be releas. from

WOLLASTON, the capt. wh. form, a tempora. settlem. 1625, wh. aft.
short time he abandon, and went to Virg. might hardly seem to deserve
a place in this work, were it not for the possibil. that a passeng. of the
Planter, from London, ten yrs. later, call. Mary Wolhouston, aged 30,
may have been seek, the long abs. h. when she came to Boston ; tho.
more prob. is it that she wras w. of a Mr. W. wh. is nam. in an act of
the Ct. Sept. 1641, impos. fine of £13. 6s. Sd. perhaps the same as
JOSIAII that I find a merch. of Boston in 1666. Very obscure, how
ever, is the evid. for either suppos. Lewis claims one W. for Lynn
1637, but says he rem. to Sandwich.
WOLLEY, ROBERT, Southampton, L. I. one of those wh. in Aug.
1673, made representa. of their case to the inhabs. of the Unit. Colonies
of N. E. as to the policy of their submit, to the Dutch, wh. had conquer.
New York. See 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 86-88. Perhaps the name
might as well be read Walley.
WOLSEY, GEORGE, is, by Mr. Felt, seen with his w. 1653, in some
part of the land ; but I can trace them no later.
WOLTEN, JOHN, Piscataqua, said to have come from Plymouth, Eng.

WOOD, or WOODS, ARIEL, Middleborough, s. of Henry, m. 1683,
Abiah Bowen, had Elnathan, b. 14 Apr. 1686 ; Abiah, 20 Feb. 1689 ;
Abiel, 19 Mar. 1691 ; Timothy, 13 Oct. 1693 ; Jerusha, 11 Nov. 1695 ;
Ebenezer, 4 Aug. 1697; Judah, 28 July 1700; and Thomas, 30 Jan.
1703. With his w. he was among the found, of the first ch. at M.
1694; and d. 10 Oct. 1719; and his wid. d. 21 May 1746, aged 83.
ABRAHAM, Concord, s. perhaps eldest of Michael of the same, was
freem. 1690. ANTHONY, Ipswich 1665, m. 1 June 1666, Mary Grover,
perhaps d. of Edmund of Salem, had William, b. 20 Mar. 1667. CON
SIDER, New London, by Miss Caulkins is mark, as hav. a gr. of Id.
1648, but forfeit, for non-resid. CONSTANT, a passeng. aged 12 yrs. in
the Abigail from London, 1635, and there might seem some grounds for
suspect, that he was the same as preced. DANIEL, Ipswich 1643, d.
1648. DANIEL, Rowley, rem. to Boxford, freem. sw. 22 Mar. 1690,
and again in Oct. foil, if the Col. rec. be true, yet possib. the solemnity
may have been for f. and s. by w. Sarah, wh. d. 27 Sept. 1714, had
David, b. 1670 ; Daniel; John; and others, as Barry says. EDMUND,
Springfield 1636, rem. to Wethersfield that yr. thence to Stamford 1641,
and next, in few yrs. more to Hempstead, L. I. and may again have
rem. EDWARD, Charlestown, was adm. to join the ch. 30 Mar. 1640,

had Ruth, and certain. Tabitha, bapt, 30 May 1641; d. 29 Aug. 1642,
and he d. 27 Nov. foil. In Geneal. Reg. III. 81, the date of inv. would
perhaps appear 4 Dec. aft. Farmer was led to mistake the name of the
Springfield Edmund for Edward, and so to think he might be s. of this
man. An EDWARD of Boston, mariner in 1659, had w. Eliz. and no
more is kn. ELEAZER, Medfield, youngest ch. of Nicholas of the same,,

ELLICE, or ELLIS, Dedham, by w. Catharine had Mehitable, b. 17 June

for sec. w. Miriam, wid. of John Smith of D. wh. was the school-mistress
many yrs. and d. 19 Oct. 1706, aged 73. The ludicrous solemnity of
the gr.-st. inscript. is happily preserv. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 277. He

Jonathan, 1 Jan. 1650; David, 17 Oct. 1651 ; Isaac, 1654; and Abiel;
and perhaps more ch. d. at Middleborough ; but the time of his d. is not

Ellen had John, b. 17 Nov. 1651; Mary, 7 Sept. 1653; Hannah, 11
Mar. 1656; and Milicent, 4 Apr. 1660. Usually his name is Woods;
and I presume he rem. to Groton, was quarter-master of the troop of
W. Middlesex cavalry in 1671. HENRY, Newport, by w. Hannah had
Henry, b. 24 Nov. 1670; Abigail, 15 Aug. 1672 ; James, 9 Nov. 1674;
Hannah, 25 Sept. 1677; Richard, 28 Oct. 1679; and Eliz. 9 Jan. 1682.
It ought to be add. that the rec. spells this name as Whod, and possib.
that may mean Hood. ISAAC, Marlborough, s. of John of Sudbury, of
wh. from Barry I learn, that by two ws. he had Isaac, Joseph, Charles,
Solomon, Dinah, Mary, and Eliz. and that his will was pro. 17 Aug.
1720. Sewall's Diary, as giv. in Geneal. Reg. VI. 72, says under 1685,
July 4, " Isaac W. dies suddenly." Perhaps this was some young man,
fellow-worship, with S. but my knowledge is limit, by him. ISAIAH,
Ipswich 1668, then said to be 41 yrs. old, m. 26 Jan. 1653, Mercy, d. of
Simon Thompson of the same, had Mary, b. 31 Oct. 1653; Simon, 18

on L. I. 1649. JAMES, Marlborough, s. of John of Sudbury, was in
garrison of serg. Wood, prob. his f. in 1675, freem. 1690, had w. Hope-
still. JEREMIAH, Stamford 1641, went to Hempstead, L. I. perhaps
was br. of Edmund, or William, or of both. JOHN, Saybrook, employ,
by the younger John Winth. was k. by the Pequots, as appears in Conn.
Col. Rec. L 29, prob. in 1637. JOHN, Sudbury, pinmaker, wh. seems
an odd trade for a wilderness pioneer ; by w. Mary had John, b. 8 May
1641; perhaps Francis, 1645; James, 18 July 1647; Catharine; Isaac,
14 July 1655 ; beside Hannah, prob. the oldest ch. wh. m. 7 June 1665,
John Leavins of Roxbury, and d. early, leav. Hannah nam. in the will
of her gr.f. He d. 10 July 1678, and his wid. d. 1690, aged 80, says
Barry. In Oct. 1675 he was, I suppose, the serg. in one of the Marlbo
rough garrison houses, as John, James, and Isaac, his s. were there also.

Clapp claims him as early as 1640 to be overseer of Glover's farm until
1654. He had also Hannah. In 1645, he was one of the petitnrs. for
Pumham's Id. to be gr. to them. Farmer, relying on a passage in
Hutch. I. supposes he was of Medfield 1656, and there he certain, was
soon aft. and also earlier. Records at M. give to him and w. Mary,

the same perversity of spelling the name, Whod, leaves uncertain what
to call it, by w. Amy had Martha, b. 2 May 1676. WILLIAM, the valu.
author of New England's Prospect, London 1634, may well be thot. that
freem. of 18 May 1631 ; but more prob. is it, that he was sett, at Lynn,
as early as 1630, as claim, by Lewis. He prob. came to Salem, 1629,
and 15 Aug. 1633 left our country, as his book relates. That was print.
1634, and it is conject. by Shattuck, wh. would magnify the honor of
Concord by so respectab. a citizen, that he came again to our side of the
water, and d. at C. aft. many yrs. resid. 14 May 1671, aged 86. For a
William this is well vouch. Lewis has better appear, of proof in p. 84,
of his sec. Ed. quot. Wood's words of minute descript. of Lynn river ;
beside wh. the fact of one of this name being rep. at the Gen. Ct. Mar.
1636, when he was chos. either for Salem or Lynn, bef. any one came
from C. with the resid. at Sandwich 1643, so large a proport. of the first
inhab. of S. having gone from L. are no slight object, to the hopes of
Shattuck. Still the fame of Bulkley may have drawn him from S.
where we never hear of him more. One Miriam whose f. we kn. not,
was b. 8 May 1648, bur. next day; and Mary was b. 29 Mar. 1649,
both at S. One WILLIAM came, 1635, in the Hopewell, Capt. Babb, a
husbandman, aged 27, with Eliz. 24, wh. may have been his sis. or w.
and John, 26, bef. merit, prob. his br. and it is clear, that if this be the
author (wh. I neither affirm nor deny), two points decide against the
Concord claim to him; for at C. w. of William d. 1 Sept. 1659, was
call. Margaret; and the passeng. in the autumn of 1635 on the Hope-
well, must have been b. 1608, while Shatttick's client could not have
come into our world aft. 1585 ; or, if his faculties were not weaken,
when he made his will, 15 Sept. 1670, reckon, hims. as 88 yrs. old, still
earlier was his advent. At C. no ch. was b. to him ; but he had ch.

Mather gives, Magnalia, III. 219, been tak. by that br. wh. had gone
back to Eng. in 1637, on receiv. news of d. of his f. but I see no small
reason to doubt the narrative in the Eccles. Hist. Yet it is more con
sistent with itself than the Geneal. Reg. story. He went home, soon

James Noyes, 1634, in the Mary and John, was one of the first planters

than a yr. bef. the ch. was gather.), as first min. at the "new town of
Andover. More trustworthy, however, is the tale, that he went, in
1 647, " on the invitat. of his friends " to Eng. once more, exc. in this last
circumstance ; tho. why friends should withdraw him, in less than two
yrs. from his first settlem. in the pulpit here, is not easi. explain. Six

Mather says, the Bartholomew Act exclud. him. In 1663, July 27, he

have been enjoy, in private by the first, sec. third, fourth, and fifth John ;

excite suspic. that he was not authoriz. under the odious orders of the

as if he had been progen. of the fam. not sparsely scatter, in our coun

must oft. have seen him, and prob. writ, letters to and rec. from him.
Hull, in his Diary, furnishes the desira. informat. that he arr. at Boston

to obt. em ploy m. nor can I trace him again, exc. in the gr. ordina. of
Rev. Daniel Gookin at Sherburne, 26 Mar. 1685, when Woodrop assist.
Both Hull and Sewall give the spelling I have substitut. for Farmer's,

1687, no doubt to take advantage of King James's newborn or pretend,

a "min. of the gosp." d. at D. 26 June 1669, as by the Roxbury ch.

assures me that this is a differ, name from Wardwell or Wardell.

worth, on Middlesex rec. call. A. B. wh. d. 12 July 1679 ; but this must
be double error, prob. for Recompense Wadsworth, and certain, for the

1718, Simon Dakin. WILLIAM, Salisbury, the first min. there, is suppos.
to have come in 1639, and Mr. Coffin thot. he was from Salisbury, Co.
Wilts, but the late historian of that city in 1842, aft. investigat. for me,
found no trace of him, and add. "I think W. is not a Salisbury name."
He had been min. in Eng. if the Magn. classif. be correct, yet nowhere
have I seen the place of his educ. ment. but he brot. w. Sarah, and ch.
Susanna, Samuel, and William ; had here, prob. Sarah, wh. d. 1 Apr.

2 June 1674; Samuel, 23 Dec. 1679; and Joseph, again, 22 June 1681.
But no descend, of any one of these six ch. is heard of. A passeng.
in the Speedwell from London to Boston, 1657, was Rebecca W. aged
18, of wh. neither by accid. nor research have I learn, any thing more.
Farmer in MS. noted, that in 1834 of this name were gr. seven at

1759, in the 72d yr. of her age, says Goodwin, p. 272 ; and there is very
good reason to judge by rec. of her b. in Geneal. Reg. IV. 140, that she

Noah, 1699 ; Clemence, 1703 ; Elisha, 1705 ; and others, says the notice
in Geneal. Reg. IV. 357. To supply the deficiencies as well as to cor

that the m. refer, to, was on 19 Dec. 1691, and that the first issue of it
was Experience, b. 20 Aug. foil. wh. d. next mo.; the next, Obadiah,

Id. at Mount Wollaston, and was call. capt. He there had a mill, wh.
with forty acres, he gave, in 1640, to Thomas Dudley, as price of five

He was much engag. 1658 in the controv. a. Rev. John Russell; and

me, shortly aft. its publicat. in 1849 : " Is not this name, Sadir, a strange
one ? I could, however, make nothing else out of it, unless I call it
Sadie." Resort to conject. would be unjustifiab. as the orig. may be
turn, to, but I doubt the first letter more than the last. If some undiscip.
eye assail the MS. he may scrutinize each letter, and if the initial seein
an S, other letters may turn out adler, or any thing exc. Sadir. WIL

1671, his prop, then in B. to his mo. Eliz. Fitch. THOMAS, Scituate,
had come in the Castle, 1 638, from Tenterden, Co. Kent, as from the
will of Peter Branch in Geneal. Reg. II. 183, is presum. It seems to
be that of a fellow-passeng. commit, only ch. under ten yrs. of age to the
care of W. wh. had at S. Thomas, James, Eliz. wh. also was the name
of his w. and John and Mary; rem.^to Boston bef. 1653, there prob.
had Jonathan, wh. d. 10 Dec. of that yr. and Nathaniel, b. 12 Mar.

the windmill in B. wh. he gave to his w. and names three elder s. and
two ds. beside Deborah, the inf. d. of his d. Eliz. wh. had m. 3 Apr.
1655, John Merrick. Of the will, Thomas and James, the two eldest s.
were made excors. and Edward Tyng, and John Hull, his friends, were
made overseers. In a note of Geneal. Reg. VI. 289, where is giv.
abstr. of this will, the Editor doubts, that the s. Nathaniel was s. of the
jr. not sen. Thomas, but in the rec. the name of the mo. is Eliz.
THOMAS, Boston, s. prob. of the preced. m. 16 Dec. 1657, Abigail, d. of
the first Jacob Eliot, had Abigail, b. 6 Jan. 1659 ; and Thomas, 2 Apr.

Charlestown ch. in Buddington's list, we must choose to consider that
good Mr. Symmes had poor rec. or ano. ch. must be presum. to wh. one
or the other of the parents belong. NATHANIEL, Newbury 1637, rem.

Reg. III. 34, call, a tailor, said to have serv. in the Narraganset winter

WYTHERDEN. See Witherden.
YALE, DAVID, Boston, came prob. with his f.-in-law, Gov. Eaton, in
1637, by w. Ursula (perhaps brot. from Wales, where was the home of
his f. David, yet more prob. that he took her in Boston, tho. we kn. not
her f.) had Eliz. b. May 1644, d. in few wks. ; David, 18 Sept. 1645;
Theophilus, 14 Jan. 1652, and soon aft. rem. perhaps home to Eng.
He own. some Id. at New Haven, and may have liv. there two or three
yrs. and even have had Joseph there, as on p. 24 of the " Yale fam." is
presum. tno. to me it seems not prob. How Farmer was led to make
him freem. 1640, is strange, for his name is not on the list, nor was he a
mem. of the ch. of B. but he sympathiz. with the oppon. of our com-
mun. wh. prob. indue, him to abandon our country. Gov. Hopkins wh.
had m. his sis. Ann, in his will, made at London, 17 Mar. 1657, left
him £200. ELIHU, New Haven, s. of the first Thomas, as Dr. Stiles
positively says, tho. in more recent times, some at New Haven have
doubted it, and offer very good presumpt. that he was s. of David, quot.
the entry of the Merch. Taylor's sch. in London, where he was adm. 1
Sept. 1662, went home in his youth, and a. 1678, proceed, to the E.
Indies, there resid. twenty yrs. and went home with large est. and three
ds. two of wh. m. into noble fams. and he d. in London, 22 July 1721.
His monum. is at Wrexham, in Co. Denbigh, bordering on Cheshire.
The assid. antiquary, N. B. Shurtleff, in Geneal. Reg. IV. 245, in a
brief, but comprehens. notice, slightly varying from Stiles, that is giv.
in note to Winth. II. 217, shows how he was Gov. of the E. I. comp.
and by his munificent legacy gain, the endur. credit, of founder of the
flourish, instit. of Yale College in his native city. JOHN, New Haven,
eldest s. of Thomas of the same, is in the list of proprs. 1685, and that
was all that could be seen of him bef. the appear, of the Geneal. 1850,
by a descend, of the same ancest. In that tract we learn, that, by w.
Rebecca, whose surname is not told, he had John, b. 3 June 1694, when
both parents had acquir. mature age (and of this s. it is carefully told,
Y A T E S . 667
that he d. 11 Dec. 1711, aged 17 yrs. 6 mos. and 7 ds.) ; Elihu, 30 Mar.
1696; Abigail, 16 Nov. 1697; and David, 8 Oct. 1699; and d. 16
Dec. 1711, so few days aft. his s. of the same name, aged 65. His wid.
d. 17 Oct. 1734, aged 78. NATHANIEL, New Haven, s. of Thomas of
the same, was a propr. 1685, but little more was kn. of him, until in the
fam. geneal. it is relat. that he m. 21 Oct. 1692, Ruth, d. of Hon. James
Bishop, had David, b. 25 Sept. 1693; James, 31 July 1695, d. at 4
yrs.; Ann, 21 Aug. 1697; and Nathaniel, 31 Dec. 1702; and d. 29
Oct. 1730. His wid. d. June 1738 or 9, the Geneal. leav. the yr.
uncert. THEOPHILUS, Boston, s. of David of the same, had very slight
connex. I believe, at any time, with his native place, exc. that, in 1675,
he udvanc. passage-money for Edward Kidder, n shoemaker of Derbysh.
to come over, wh. should serve therefor four yrs. THOMAS, New
Haven, s. of David, b. in Wales, came prob. in 1637 to Boston, with
Theophilus Eaton, wh. had m. for his sec. w. the wid. mo. of Thomas,
and with his f.-in-law, went in 1638 to plant at New Haven ; there sign.
the planta. covenant, 1639, m. Mary, eldest d. of Capt. Nathaniel
Turner, had John, b. a. 1645; Thomas, a. 1646; Elihu, said by Dr.
Stiles to have been b. 5 Apr. 1 648, but some doubt, whether he was s. of
Thomas, or even b. in New Haven, suggest, that he may have been s. of
the br. David, or even br. but the town rec. contains not the b. of either
of the three; Mary, 16 Oct. 1650; Nathaniel, 3 Jan. 1653; Martha, 6
May 1655, bapt. 18 Mar. 1660, wh. d. under 16 yrs.; Abigail, 5 May
1660, bapt. perhaps, 22 July foil.; Hannah, 6 July 1662; and Eliz. 29
Jan. 1667 ; was rep. 1672, and d. 27 Mar. 1683. His est. by inv. of 7
May foil, was £479. and in 1684 it was distrib. to the wid. three s.
(Elihu not nam. but he may have declin. to partake) and four ds. of
wh. Mary had m. Jan. 1673, Joseph Ives ; Hannah, m. 9 May 1682,
Enos Talmadge ; and Eliz. m. 30 July 1688, Joseph Pardee. His wid.
d. 15 Oct. 1704. THOMAS, New Haven, s. of the preced. was made
freern. 1668, m. 11 Dec. 1667, Rebecca, d. of William Gibbard, had
Hannah, b. 27 July 1669 ; and rem. to Wallingford, had there Rebecca,
2 Oct. 1671 ; Eliz. 25 July 1673 ; Theophilus, 13 Nov. 1675 ; Thomas,
20 Mar. 1679; Nathaniel, 12 July 1681; Mary, 27 Aug. 1684, d.
under 19 yrs.; and John, 8 Dec. 1687; took sec. w. 8 Feb. 1689,
Sarah, d. of John Nash, wh. d. 27 May 1716, and he took third w. 31
July foil, but had no ch. by either, and d. 26 Jan. 1736.
YARDLEY, JOHN, Braintree 1688, as found by Felt.
YATES, FRANCIS, Wethersfield, rem. 1641 to Stamford, says Hinman,
but I judge him the same wh. was of Hempstead 1647, made a freem.
of Conn. 1658, and perhaps at last a resid. at West Chester, in the
prov. of^Nevv York, where he made his will, 1682, pro. and rec. in N. Y.
668 YEA — YOR
by wh. are nam. five ch. Mary, John, Dinah, Jonathan, and Dorothy.
GEORGE, made freem. of Conn. 1658, may have been br. of the preced.
HENRY, Guilford 1669, there d. Jan. 1705, in his will giv. all his prop,
to the ch. and to deac. John Meigs, and thus we may assume tho. the
amount was only £61. that he had no w. nor ch. JOHN, Duxbury, by
w. Mary had John, b. 15 Aug. 1650 ; perhaps rem. to Eastham, and d.
soon, for his wid. m. Oct. 1651, Richard Higgins of E. JOHN, Eastham,
perhaps s. of the preced. m. 11 Jan. 1700, Abigail Rogers, prob. d. of
Lieut. James. One JOHN, perhaps the same, if the spell, of the name
on the roster, Yeates, may mean the same (as in the Boston rec. we call
Yeale, Yale), was a soldier in Moseley's comp. Dec. 1675. WILLIAM
is the name of a passeng. aged 14, in the Abigail from London 1635, of
wh. no more is kn.
YEALES, TIMOTHY, Weymouth, m. at Boston, Naomi, d. of George
Frye of W. had Ann, b. 25 Apr. 1673, d. prob. young; Ann, again, 7
May 1679; and Nehemiah, 17 Sept. 1689; perhaps others.
YELINGS, ROGER, Boston, by w. Eliz. had John, b. 30 Aug. 1680;
and David, 12 Aug. 1682.
YELL, or YEAL, JOHN, Ipswich, m. says Mr. Felt, 27 July 1690,
Joanna Smith, had Eliz. b. 15 June 1691 ; and John, 20 June 1694;
and d. 20 Jan. 1701.
YEO, or Yow, SAMUEL, I find in the Essex rec. 1653, as is also
ALLEN ; but the name is giv. Yew, and sometimes is spell. Yeow, and
in Drake's valua. Hist, of Boston, 800, is Yow. THOMAS, Boston, m.
Sarah, d. of David Phippen or Phippeny of Hingham, bef. Nov. 1650,
as the will of P. calls him s.-in-law, had Eliz. b. 1 Oct. 1652; and
Thomas, 24 Apr. 1654; perhaps more. Our Col. Rec. IV. shows that
in 1652 he was one of the projectors of the conduit in Ann street, long
a valua. supply of pure water, and discontin. in the present century. I
think he had a br. Charles, at Bristol, Eng.
YEOMANS, EDMUND, Charlestown, by our Col. Rec. III. had w.
Susanna, and sold beer in 1650; but he is not seen as a householder
there in 1658. He may be the man of Haverhill, 1666, by Coffin, in
Geneal. Reg. VIII. 168, call. Edward. EDWARD, Boston, m. 21 June
1652, Eliz. d. of Thomas Joslin, Jocelin, or Josselin, had Edward, b. 6
May 1657 ; and perhaps other ch. but he d. not long aft. for his wid. m.
9 May 1662, Edward Kilby. EDWARD and JOHN, early sett, of Plain-
field, a. 1700, may have been s. of the preced.
YKSCUTT, RICHARD, Ipswich, with w. Alice, giv. me by Mr. Felt,
prob. came to N. E. too late for adm. in this work.
YORK, or YORKE, BENJAMIN, Dover, s. of Richard, prob. of the
same, was first tax. there 1677. JAMES, Stonington, had first liv. at
YOUNG. 669
Braintree, where his s. James was b. 14 June 1648; was freem. of
Conn. 1666, but when he d. is not heard. JAMES, Stonington 1670, s.
of the preced. freem. 1673, sold the yr. preced. his est. in Boston, and d.
early, perhaps in 1678, for his wid. Deborah m. 12 Mar. 1679, Henry
Eliot. JOHN, Dover, prob. s. of Richard of the same, took o. of fidel.
1669, had w. Ruth, perhaps was of North Yarmouth 1684. RICHARD,
Dover 1648, was prob. f. of Benjamin, Edward, and John, and d. early
in 1674, his inv. being of 27 Mar. He left wid. Eliz. SAMUEL, Glou
cester, by w. Hannah had John, b. 1695, but some yrs. bef. had liv. at
North Yarmouth. This s. and ano. (Thomas) d. says Babson, 1699,
and the f. d. 18 Mar. 1718, aged 73. But in his will he ment. other ch.
all prob. elder, Samuel, wh. had three s. Samuel; Benjamin; Richard;
beside three m. ds.
YOUDALL, PHILIP, Gloucester, of wh. nothing good is told by Bab-
son, and no w. or ch. ment. nor any date giv. by him, 183, exc. that of
1648 in connex. with some offence.
YOUNG, CHRISTOPHER, Salem 1638, came from Yarmouth, Co. Norf.
by w. Priscilla had Sarah, bapt. 2 Dec. of that yr. ; Ruth, Mar. 1641 ;
Judith, 1 Jan. 1643, d. soon; and Christopher, 18 Feb. 1644; and d. at
Wenham 1647, betw. 19 June, date of his will, and 8 July, when it was
pro. See Essex Inst. II. 6. By our Col. Rec. II. 272, it is seen that
discretion in our Ct. control the affection of the testator, by wh. he
directs his childr. to be sent to Eng. Coffin, in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 169,
has some slight variat. from the names and dates, but my bapt. are sure.
Sarah m. 20 Mar. 1662, I suppose, John Marsh. DAVID, Eastham, s.
of the first John of the same, m. 20 Jan. 1688, Ann, d. of John Doane

EDWARD, Boston 1675, a fisherman, perhaps is the same, wh. by Coffin
is ment. at Newbury, having w. Hannah, and ch. Thomas, b. 17 Jan.
1691 ; and Richard, 7 Sept. 1693. GEORGE, Scituate 1660, m. 15 Jan.

1692. Mary m. 3 Mar. 1677, Daniel Smith; and Abigail m. 3 Jan.
1683, Stephen Twining. JOHN, Portsmouth, had John, b. 1649, per
haps others. JOHN, Southold, L. I. 1662, had, perhaps, been of Wind
sor 1641, whence he rem. bef. 1650, and in that yr. sold his est. at W.
was by S. employ, as agent to manage affairs with Conn, jurisdict. and
Hammond has in his Index, mark, him as rep. but not so print, him in
the body of the Vol. was a capt. and so much betrust. by the Gen. Ct. of
Conn, that he was made a magistr. over that part of L. I. wh. the peo
ple of Conn, hoped to extort from the weakness of the Dutch ; and he
was, in 1663, by act of the Ct. put in nominat. for an Assist. That he
was never chos. was prob. the conseq. of the conquest of N. Y. from the
Dutch, and royal gr. to the Duke of York. Oft. this man's name appears
in Conn. Col. rec. without the u, and once an addit. es is seen ; and I am
much inclined to believe that he was s. of the Rev. John Youngs. JOHN,
Exeter, perhaps s. of John of Portsmouth, took o. of alleg. 1677, was k.
by the Ind. 10 June 1697. JOHN, Eastham, eldest s. of John of the
same, m. Ruth, d. of Daniel Cole of the same. JOSEPH, Salem 1638,

THEW, Hartford, apprent. of William Williams to learn the trade of a
cooper, in 1658 assent, to transfer to ano. master ; and that is all I hear
of him. NATHANIEL, Eastham, s. of the first John of the same, left
wid. Mercy, wh. m. 10 June 1708, Nathaniel Mayo of the same. PAUL,
Boston, d. 1641, perhaps sudden, at least we see in Col. Rec. I. 318, that
a commissn. to sett, his est. was giv. by the Gen. Ct. RICHARD, by
Farmer giv. as the freem. of 1652 at Kittery, but was of Cape Porpus,

land, a boy, prisoner in Canada, 1695, wh. is call, of Dover. THOMAS,
perhaps of Warwick, m. Eliz. d. of Richard Harcutt of W. but he may

Franequer, as is seen in a collect, of rec. at Westminster, with copy of
wh. her majesty's keeper of those treasures favored me ; and in the
margin of this part is insert. " This man was forbyden passage by the
Commissnrs. and went not from Yarmouth." Probably the scrivener
had no idea of a negative pregnant, as the lawyers say, in his mind,
when he made that entry, but may have suppos. that the power of the
great archbp. the imperious and foolish Laud, would forever restrain that
migrat. As the whole complication of ecclesiast. impolicy was over
thrown three yrs. aft. the puritan's desire was then, if not earlier gratif.
One report places him at New Haven 1638-40. I presume that Wood,
in his Hist, of L. I. where he makes Y. a min. at Hingham, Eng. and to
come to New Haven with part of his church in 1640, and to begin the set-
tlem. of Southold, in Oct. of that yr. foil, tradit. of the neighb. and may
be more trustworthy, as Farmer quotes him, where he says, he d. 1672,
in his 74th yr. JOHN, Southold, L. I. eldest s. of the preced. (wh. is
duly commemo. under Young), was, in 1681, under the governm. of

ZECHARIAH, LEWIS, Ipswich 1675, is all that Mr. Felt can tell a.
this person, whose surname may have changed places with the bapt. as
Farmer found Merry Waters. Yet I have no acquaint, with Zechariah
Lewis, not even so much as with Lewis Zechariah. The name of
Daniel Zechary in Boston, turns up in 1706.
ZULLESH, DAVID, freem. of Mass. 18 May 1642, is the last name on

seems like an Eng. name, and f. mo. br. sis. w. or ch. are unkn. As
approxim. to so unusual a surname, I have seen nothing but Mr. Zel-
lick, a merchant at New Haven, 1647, only as a transient visitor, if
even he were not far remote, whose goods of £200. value were attach,
there by Mr. Pell, no doubt Thomas, one of the chief men there. I
suppose he was a Dutchman from Manhattan ; and that his name was
, by Boston folks turn, into Sellock.

PREFACE.
SOMK years ago I discovered that there was in Savage's Dictionary
a great deal more information about many families than could be found
under the name, and that tin index such as is now uniformly found in
genealogical works would be of great use. In the preparation for the
pres.s of my family genealogy, I found that the maiden name of the wife
of the only son of my first American ancestor still eluded my best endeav
ors ; so, as I hud not been able to induce any one else to do the work, I
compiled the following index. It has been done very hurriedly, but, I
hope, will be found reasonably free from errors.
The amount of additional information it lays open is very much more
than even I expected ; but my object is yet unattaiued. I still want the
maiden name of
Sarah, who married John IVxter. who died 1677; after
wards murried William BoiU'dman,1 who died 10% ; prob
ably finally married Daniel 1 lichens."
Any one who will help me to some enlightenment in the premises, will
greatly oblige,

'Variously spelt 1'ordman and Boremnn.
"Variously spelt Hitch ens, llitchings, etc. ; perhaps even Ilutchins.
