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

Martha Great difficulty occurs in turning over rec. by frequent substitution of Dean, or Deane, or Daine, for Dane, and the reverse. DANFORTH, JOHN, Dorchester, s. of the first Rev. Samuel, ord. 28 June 1682, seventh min. of that ch. m. 21 Nov. 1682, Elizabeth (but in Geneal. Reg. VII. 58, call. Hetty), d. of James Minot, wh. d. 6 June 1722; and he d. 26 May 1730. His age has been overstated by 8 yrs. in Dr. Harris and others. He had Elijah, b. 1683, H. C. 1703, d. 8 Oct. 1736 ; John, 26 Jan. 1689, d. 2 Mar. 1729; and (beside Mehitable, whose gr.stone tells, that she d. 1 May 1727, in 27th yr.), Samuel, H.

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

JOHN, New Haven, first min. there, s. of John, says Wood's Athenae Oxon. not, as the fondness of Mather states, mayor of Coventry, in idle attempt to magnify a great man, was b. 1597, bred at Oxford, but not adm. as Mather has it, of Brazen Nose, 1611, enter. 1613, at Merton Coll. thence after two yrs. rem. to Magdalen Hall, where he proceed. B. D. 1625 was preach. at St. Stephens, Coleman str. London, perhaps not quite so early as the Magnalia imports; but being in 1633 complain. of for nonconform. went to Amsterdam, thence came to N. E. 1637, with Gov. Eaton, arr. at Boston 26 June, and next yr. with him sett. New Haven. Mr. Haven, the accomplish. editor of Archaeologia Americana, Vol. III. in prelimin. rem. cxxxvi. corrects that looselessn. of the Magnalia as to the mayor of Coventry; yet falls into slight error as to the coming of this famous divine. On p. lxxxv. he says: "When the times grew favorable for the Puritans he return. to Eng." from his refuge in Holland; but more exact expression should be, in my judgm. thus: "As the times grew not favorable for the Puritans, he ret. no more to Eng." exc. to emb. privily, perhaps without landing, for he dared not appear in London.

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

Benedict Davenport, Esqr. call. hims. of the twenty-fourth generat. has confident. carr. the line of his fam. back to Orme de Davenport, 1086, or the 20th of the Conquer.

Sarah, b. 10 Apr. 1646; and Rebecca; and d. 19 July 1655. His will is of 17 July and pro. 2 Oct. of that yr. ROBERT, Yarmouth 1643, or earlier, had Deborah, b. Jan. 1646; Mary, 28 May 1648; Andrew, May 1650; John, 1 Mar. 1652; Robert, Aug. 1654; Josiah, Sep. 1656; Hannah, Sept. 1658; Sarah, Oct. 1660; and Tristram. Perhaps Sarah m. 23 Oct. 1679, Joseph Young. SAMUEL, Watertown, rem. early in 1646 to Boston, had w. Ann wh. a. soon; and m. 20 July 1651, Sarah, d. of Richard Thayer of B. had Samuel, b. 22 Mar. 1654; William, 4 Sept. 1656, d. next yr.; and Sarah, 19 Dec. 1657, wh. d. Aug. foll.; beside Zechariah, 29 July 1659. But in Geneal. Reg. XV. 133, his surname is wild. turn to Doves. Prob. he is the freem. of 1645, and perhaps br. of George. It may be, that his wid. m. 6 May 1663, Jonathan Hayward. SAMUEL, Groton, by w. Mary had a d. b. 31 Jan. 1662; John, 10 Mar. 1664; Sarah, 12 Aug. 1667 ; Samuel, 10 Jan. 1669, Barnabas, 17 Apr. 1672 ; and a d. 10 Apr. 1674; and d. 28 Dec. 1699. SAMUEL, Salisbury, m. 19 Dec. 1663, Deborah, d. of William Barnes, had Samuel, b. 26 Jan. 1667. Perhaps he was of Amesbury, there took o. of alleg. 20 Dec. 1677. SAMUEL, Concord, s. of Dolor, m. 11 Jan. 1665, Mary Mead had Mary, b. 27 Sept. 1666; Samuel, 21 June 1669; Daniel, 26 Mar. 1673; Eliezer, Stephen; and Simon, 9 Aug. 1683. I presume this is the man, by Felt insert. as of Lynn, m. 11 Jan. 1666, Mary Meddowes. Geneal Reg. V. 96. SAMUEL, Roxbury, perhaps s. of William of the same, rem. to Northampton 1668, was freem. 1676, had two ws. of wh. sec. was Elizabeth d. of William Smead, m. 1681; and he d. 26 July 1690, leav. beside three ds. Samuel, b. 1672; and John, 1677. SAMUEL, Boston 1673, s. of George, mariner, had w. Deborah, wh. d. early, and he m. 1677, Elizabeth wid. of brave Nathaniel Davenport, d. of Rev. Thomas Thacher. SAMUEL, Charlestown, had serv. under Capt. Turner, 1676, in Philip's war, but as early as 22 Nov. 1658 by w. Mary had Elizabeth * SIMON, Concord, s. of Dolor, m. 12 Dec. 1660, Mary, d. of James Blood, had Simon, b. 2 Oct. 1661; Mary, 3 Oct. 1663; Sarah, 15 Mar. 1666; James, 19 June 1668; Ellen, 22 Oct. 1672; Ebenezer, 1676; and Hannah, 1 Apr. 1679; freem. 1690; and rep. One SIMON was of Bristol, Feb. 1689, with w. and one ch. STEPHEN, Hartford 1646, freem. of Conn. 1658. * SYLVANUS, Sheepscot 1659, sw. alleg. to the king 1665, wound. by the Ind. 1676 at Arowsick, when Capt. Lake was k. rem. to Falmouth 1680, there had command of the fort in the next Ind. war, tak. by the French and Ind. combined force, 20 May 1690, carr. to Canada; after his ret. was put into the Counc. by the Chart. of William and Mary 1691; wrote an acco. of the conduct of the [[22]] war, wh. is in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 101. He liv. at Hull in latter days d. 1704, leav. w. but no ch. His will, 8 Apr. 1703, pro. 6 May 1704, gives all his quarter of Casco lds. to 3 ds. of James English, ea. of them paying £3. to his w. and all his other est. to John Nelson, he "promising justice and kindness" to D.'s w. Willis, I. 161, 209. THEOPHILUS, Saco, constable in 1636. Folsom, 33,121. It is almost certain that he soon rem. THOMAS, Newbury, a sawyer, from Marlborough in Co. Wilts, came in the James 1635, embark. at Southampton in Apr. arr. at Boston 3 June, freem. 2 June 1641, rem. next yr. to Haverhill, where he had s. Joseph, and d. 1683, aged 80. He brot. says Coffin, w. Christian from Eng. and his posterity is num. This name among the passeng. from Southampton in the James, by rec. at State Paper off. Somerby read Thomas James. It seems a wild error of his or mine; but if my read. be correct, his surname may be that of the ship. THOMAS, Saco, an early sett. assessed towards pub. worship 1636. THOMAS, Boston, s. of William, m. 12 Sept. 1689, Hannah Allen (wid. of one whom no research of mine, or even of Shurtleff, can identify), d. of Gov. Leverett, had Thomas, the Secr. of the Prov. of New Hamp. 1692. The late, beloved, John Davis, editor of Morton's Memo. Presid. of the Mass. Hist. Soc. above forty yrs. judge of the Distr. Court of the U. S. was not, in male line, of N. E. ancestry, but was s. of Thomas, wh. was b. 1722 at Albany, whither his f. had rem. from N. Carolina. * TOBIAS, Roxbury, br. of Richard of the same, m. Sarah, d. of Isaac Morrill, had Sarah, b. 10 Feb. 1647, and his w. d. 23 Jan. by ch. rec. but 15 Feb. says the town, 1649. He m. 13 Dec. next, Bridget Kinsman, had John, b. 17 Apr. 1651; Tobias, 10 June 1653; Isaac, 7 Dec. 1655, wh. d. at 27 yrs.; Samuel, bapt. with the three preced. 12 June 1659, wh. d. young; Samuel, again, 24 Mar. 1661, d. at 18; and Abigail, in town rec. said to be b. 6 Sept. 1671; was of ar. co. 1666, and d. 25 Apr. 1690. TOBIAS, Dover, freem. 1666. TRISTRAM, Scituate, s. of Robert of Yarmouth, m. 1694, perhaps for sec. w. Sarah Archer of Braintree, had Elizabeth b. 1695, and rem. as Deane thinks, but yet supposes Hannah D. wh. m. there 1709 to be a d. WILLIAM, Boston, by w. Mary had Abigail, b. 31 Oct. 1635, d. at 4 yrs.; Thomas, 15 Mar. 1637, d. young; Aaron, 20 July 1638, d. next yr.; John, wh. d. young, in 1641; Trine, 10 Aug. 1642; Mary, 3 Oct. 1644, perhaps d. soon; and Thomas, again, 8, bapt. 7 Sept. 1645. The Book of possessions in early days shows W. sen. and W. jr. in Boston, but wh. was f. of these ch. is to be determin. I fear, only by conject. One was a gunsmith, and one was d. 10 Nov. 1655, when Isaac Collamore gave in the inv. of his est. only £7. His wid. Mary soon m. John Cowdall WILLIAM, New Haven 1639, had John, H. C. 1651, the scholar, bef. ment. lost on his voyage to Eng. He d. 1659, leav. wid. Martha, wh. [[23]] was sis. of John Wakeman, and d. 1663. His only surv. ch. Sarah m. William Russell, and to educate his s. Noadiah, the gr.mo. left £60. WILLIAM, Salem 1639, had that yr. gr. of ld. prob. rem. to Boston or elsewhere, may be the mariner, wh. at B. made his will 14 Sept. 1655, as in Geneal. Reg. V. 298, and Ib. IX. 141. * WILLIAM, Boston, apothecary, adm. of the ch. 28 July 1644, in wh. yr. he m. Margaret, d. of William Pynchon of Springfield, perhaps a sec. w. By her he had sev. ch. of wh. Thomas, b. 3 Sept. 1645, may have been one; also, Benjamin; Elizabeth; Ephraim, wh. d. 2 Aug. 1652; and William, the last, b. 25 June 1663; and his w. d. 3 July after. He m. next, Huldah, d. of Rev. Zechariah Symmes, had Mary, b. 3 Dec. 1656; Rebecca, 3 Aug. 1658; Huldah, 21 Dec. 1659; Ruth, 12 Feb. 1662; John, 10 June 1663; and Deborah, 13 Apr. 1665, d. young; by ano. w. Judith, had Margaret, 13 Nov. 1667; and perhaps Hannah. He had still ano. w. Sarah, and hope of progeny by her when he made his will, in wh. all of these ch. exc. Deborah, are ment. He was a man of wealth, enterprise, and discretion, ar. co. 1643, freem. 1645, a capt. rep. for Springfield 1652, where prob. he liv. some few yrs. also for Haverhill 1668, was employ. as commander of a troop in Ninigret's troubles, joint commiss. in 1653 with Leverett to the Dutch Gov. at N. York, and one of the found. of the third ch. His will, made 17 May 1676, pro. 9 days after, being only two days after his d. gave £400 to w. Sarah, and contains many particulars. His wid. m. Capt. Edward Palmes of New London. WILLIAM, Roxbury, prob. br. of Tobias, freem. 1673, had John, b. 1 Oct. 1643; Samuel, 21 Feb. 1645; Joseph, whose date, presumed, is 12 Oct. 1649. His w. Elizabeth d. or was bur. 4 Mar 1658; and he m. 21 Oct. next Alice Thorp, wh. had William and Elizabeth bapt. 14 June 1663; but perhaps they were not liv. when this sec. w. d. 1667, prob. soon after b. of Jonathan, 28 Feb. of that yr. He had, also, Matthew, but I kn. not the day of his b. or whether he were not by a third w. made Extrix. but not nam. in his will of 6 Dec 1683, in wh. he ment. all these ch. and that Matthew and Jonathan are under age. He d. 9 Dec 1683, aged 66. WILLIAM, Boston, by w. Mary, d. of Nicholas Parker, had Joanna, b. 16 Aug. 1655; and I presume, that the same man by w. Susanna had Joanna, b. 26 July 1657, sold his est. in 1658, and went to Barbados. WILLIAM, Marblehead, a petitnr. 1668 against imposts. WILLIAM, Roxbury, perhaps a of William the first of Boston, had Mary, b. 28 Mar. 1669; Ann, 24 Dec. 1670; next rec. of 1672 gives him Benjamin, 31 May, and Rachel, 26 Aug. but wh. rec. of the two is false is uncert.; perhaps the yr. 1674 is omit. for the latter ch Ichabod, 1 Apr. 1676; Ebenezer, 9 Apr. 1678; William, 3 Jan. 1680; Sarah, 20 July 1681; and Isaac, 18 Apr. 1683; and a William, perhaps the same, d. there 23 Jan. 1706. WILLIAM, Boston, mariner, in his will 31 Oct. 1690, not pro. bef. 5 Aug. 1701, gives est. [[24]] to w. Mary, and childr. not nam. WILLIAM, Haverhill, m. 31 Dec. 1700, Mary, d. of John Kelly, jr. of Newbury. ZACHARY, Newbury, s. of John of the same, m. 4 Feb. 1681, Judith Brown, had Judith, b. 7 Sept. 1684, d. at 18 yrs.; and Elizabeth 26 Apr. 1687. In many instances, some of the above nam. are spelled Davies, as well as Davis; and the utmost care, in arranging relationsh. betw. parties with a name so wide. diffus. will sometimes be at fault. "A courageous soldier," is the designat. of a serj. D. in the Pequot war 1637; but wh. can individualize him? There came in the Elizabeth 1635, from London to Boston, Margaret Davis, aged 32, with her ch. John, 9; Mary, 4; and Elizabeth 1; the w. and fam. no doubt a Dolor wh. had come a yr. or two bef. Twenty of this name had in 1834 been gr. at Harv. and as many more at the other N. E. coll. DAVISON, * DANIEL, Ipswich, prob. s. of Nicholas, rem. to Newbury, m. Abigail, d. of Peter Coffin of Dover, had Nicholas, b. 16 May 1680; Sarah, 1 Feb. 1682; Daniel, 23 May 1686; Mary, 21 May, 1689; and Peter, 20 Oct. 1692; was a man of note, ar. co. 1672, maj. of the Co. regim. had liv. first at Charlestown, was a merch. in 1676, by w. Abigail had Abigail, bapt. 13 Feb. of that yr.; and Joanna, 29 Apr. 1677; both at C.; may have short time rem. to Stonington. * NICHOLAS, Charlestown 1639, one of the chief men, agent of Gov. Cradock, by w. Joanna Hodges had Daniel and Sarah, wh. m. 24 Mar. 1665, Joseph Lynde, ar. co. 1648, went home 1635, prob. on business, and came back 1656, in the Speedwell, then 45 yrs. old, and d. 1664, leav. good est. His will of 26 Mar. 1655, made in view of a voyage to Barbados, thence to . Eng. pro. 11 July 1664, names w. Joan, ch. Daniel, and Sarah, br. John of wh. he kn. not where he was, sis.-in-law Mary Hodges, w. of br.-in-law John Anderson, two neph. or nieces, perhaps not in our country, and childr. of br. Jeremy D. dec. wh. was m. and liv. at Lynn, Eng. as late as 1652. An Ind. sagamore gave him mortge. of Nahant. His inv. incl. land in Boston, Charlestown, Pemaquid, and a. 2100 acres near Windsor on both sides of the Conn. was £1869.11.11. PETER, Stonington, a. 1680 or 90, was perhaps br. of Daniel, or of THOMAS, wh. was in the same quarter at that time. DAWDY. See Dady. DAWES, AMBROSE, Boston, s. of William, freem. 1671, m. Mary, d. of Thomas Bumstead, had Mary, b. 24 Sept. 1664; Rebecca, 25 Feb. 1666; Susanna,19 Mar. 1668, d.young; William, 19 Dec. 1671; Susannah, again, 11 Jan. 1674; Joseph, 21 Oct. 1677; and Thomas, 1 Nov 1680. FRANCIS, Boston, had Elizabeth wh. m. 16 Oct. 1659, Samuel Miles. This man may have writ. his name Dowse, wh. see. JOHN, Windsor [[25]] 1647, in 1653 banish. from the Col. for threatening Gov. Hopkins, may have, but not prob. come for refuge to Boston, there by w. Mary had Robert, b. 29 Mar. 1655; Mary, 12 Apr. 1657; and Samuel, 1 May 1660. WILLIAM, Braintree, came in the Planter 1635, a bricklayer, aged 15, by the custom ho. reg. in London, m. Susanna, eldest d. of John Mills, had Ambrose, b. 24 July 1642; rem. to Boston, in 1652, there had William, b. 8 Mar. 1655; and Robert a. 1656; freem. 1646, d. 24 Mar. 1703, aet. 86, says the rec. I think he had, also, Hannah, 7 Jan. 1660; but the rec. gives her to John and Susanna, and very good reason is kn. for distrust of that vol. Robert was a soldier under Capt. Turner 1676, on Conn. riv. Susan, possib. a sis. aged 16, came in the Blessing 1635, later in the yr. DAWSE, JOSEPH, Charlestown, is print. as one of Moseley's comp. Dec. 1675, perhaps for Dowse. DAWSON, DANIEL, Ipswich, may easily be mispr. for Davison. But Coffin, in Geneal. Reg. VI. 250 calls wid. 1693, Margaret. Yet she may have been sec. w. of Davison. GEORGE, Boston 1679, a Quaker, wh. had been whip. for attend. the meeting 1677. HENRY, Boston, adm. of the ch. 16 May 1641, freem. 2 June after, a laborer, whose w. was in Eng. He was in the employm. of William Hudson, jr. wh. when he went to serv. in the Parliament's cause against the king, left the care of his fam. two yrs. to this young man in conseq. of wh. he was brot. into great peril of his life, as set forth in Winthrop II. 249. Prob. he repent. soon, for he was in Oct. 1646, restor. to his rank. HENRY, Boston, a soldier, in the comp. of Capt. William Turner in Feb. at Medfield, and on Conn. riv. Apr. 1676, under Capt. Pierce, freem. 1678. HENRY, Boston, perhaps s. of the preced. if not the same, freem. 1690, had bapt. at 2d ch. Thomas, 22 Nov. 1691; James, 9 Feb. 1696; Hannah, 20 Mar. 1698; and Elizabeth 31 Mar. 1700. ROBERT, New Haven, had John, b. 1677, by first w. Sarah, d. of William Tuttle, as erron. has been said, and m. next Hannah, wid. of John Russell, had Thomas, b. 1693. DAWSTIN, JOSIAS, Medford or Reading 1640, by the first deed in Suffk. reg. took grant of his messuage from Matthew Cradock, Esqr. of London, skinner, former Gov. of the Mass. Bay Col. 26 Apr. 1641. In Reading, rec. of b. of his ch. Hannah, 20 Feb. 1649, wh. d. Nov. foll. and Sarah, 25 Sept. 1653, the name is giv. without w. DAY, ANTHONY, Gloucester 1645, had w. Susanna, and seven ch. John b. 28 Apr. 1657; Ezekiel, 12 Mar. 1660, d. soon; Ezekiel, again, 19 May 1662; Nathaniel, 9 Sept. 1665; Elizabeth 2 Apr. 1667; Samuel, 25 Feb. 1670; and Joseph, 4 Apr. 1672; beside elder ones, Thomas, and Timothy, of unkn. dates; and d. 23 Apr. 1707, aged 90. His wid. d. 10 Dec. 1717, aged 93. EZEKIEL, Gloucester, s. of Anthony, m. 27 Jan. 1690, Mary, d. of Hugh Rowe, and d. 18 Feb. 1725, leav. five s. lib. Ezekiel, Pelatiah, Samuel, Nathaniel, and Jonathan. He was one of the witness. 15 July 1692, to the invasion by the French or Ind. or Devils, whose story is in its proper place in Mather, Magn. VII. 83. ISAAC, Cambridge, by w. Susanna had Robert, b. 24 Oct. 1686; and Susanna, 28 Nov. 1688. Robert d. 4 Feb. 1688. He was a [[26]] London cit. embroiderer, but when he came, wh. was his w. when he rem. are matters unkn. Prob. he left in the summer of 1692. JAMES, Ipswich, perhaps s. of Robert of the same, freem. 1673. Some two or three JOHNS can find no proper habitat. yet one is seen subscr. to memorial, 1668, at Salem, against imposts. He was s. of Thomas, and m. 6 July of that yr. Ann Coleman, had Ann, b. 18 Oct. 1669; John, 24 Jan. 1671; and Stephen, 16 Oct. 1673. This John d. June 1680, and to his wid. Ann admin. was giv. 1 July. Perhaps one had Mary, wh. m. 20 Aug. 1666, a Coldfax. JOHN, Hartford, s. of Robert, of the same, by w. Sarah Maynard, had Joseph, b. a. 1675; John, 1677; Thomas; Mary; Maynard; Sarah, bapt. 19 Sept. 1686; William, 24 Apr. 1692; and Joseph, again, 14 June 1699. JOHN, Boston 1677, a merch. d. that yr. in his will of 4 Sept. calls hims. of Frome Woodlands, near Warminster, in Wilts, on the border of Somersetsh. and gives all his prop. to br. Robert of the same place; and prob. had no w. or ch. JOHN, Dedham, eldest s. of Ralph, was prob. a soldier of Moseley's comp. Dec. 1676, m. 22 May 1678, Abigail Pond, had John, b. 11 Oct.1679; rem. to Wrentham, there had Ralph, 9 Dec. 1681; Abigail, 12 Jan. 1684, wh. d. young; Jonathan, 12 or 21 Mar. 1689; and Abigail, again, 1 Jan. or, as ano. acco. has it, perhaps by mistake of the numeral for the mo. 1 Nov. 1693; and perhaps other ch. JOHN, Gloucester, br. of Ezekiel, m. 12 Dec. 1682, Abigail Leach, wh. d. 9 Feb. 1726, aged 63; was a witness to spectral delusions in July 1692, as set forth in the Magnalia. JOSEPH, Gloucester, s. prob. youngest, of Anthony, m. 15 Aug. 1696, Elizabeth Gouge, says Babson, had Jeremiah, William, and sev. ds. perhaps also Joseph. MATTHEW, Cambridge, printer, s. of Stephen, b. in Eng. Steward of the coll. 1645, freem. 1646, made his nuncup. will 10 May 1649, d. soon after. Harris, Epit. says the town rec. mark. his bur. on the same day. That docum. wh. is in Geneal. Reg. III. 181, leads us to infer that he had no w. or ch. tho. little ch. Moses is nam. that was prob. his br. but Mr. Paige gives strong sanction to the opin. that he was s. of William Bordman, wh. m. a niece of Day. He gave liberally to the coll. £4. to Elder Frost, and something to sev. others, yet most to his mo. wh. was present. His name is in the imprint of Danforth's Almanac, 1647. NATHANIEL, Ipswich 1637. Kimball. NATHANIEL, Gloucester, s. of Anthony, m. 13 Feb. 1690, Ruth, d. of Hugh Rowe, had Benjamin, Nathaniel, David, and seven ds. prob. rem. bef. 1721.

John, Ralph, Mary, wh. was w. of John Paine, Abigail, and s.-in-law John Ruggles, are nam. But his first w. was Susan, d. of Jonathan Fairbanks, wh. in 1668 ment. her four ch. in his will, and they are found in Dedham ch. rec. to be Elizabeth bapt. 3 July 1648, tak. with the town rec. that shows Mary, b. 9 Nov. 1649; Susan, 1652; and John, 15 Apr. 1654; while the next is found Abigail, d. of Ralph and Abigail, Apr. 1661. RALPH, Dedham, s. of the preced. freem. 1690, m. 10 Aug. 1681, Sarah, d. of Thomas Fuller, had Ralph, b. 28 Oct. 1683; Thomas, 19 June 1686; Sarah; Mary; Jeremiah, 23 Sept. 1693; and Abiel. ROBERT, Cambridge, came in the Elizabeth 1634, from Ipswich, aged 30, with w. Mary 28, freem. 6 May 1636, went to Hartford, perhaps with Hooker in 1636, or very soon after, had sev. lots among first proprs. His first w. d. prob. bef. rem. a.nd the mo. of his ch. was Edatha, sis. of [[27]] deac. Edward Stebbins. She is nam. in his will, 20 May 1648, wh. is print. in Trumbull's Col. Rec. of Conn. I. 487; but tho. childr. are provid. for, we find not names nor number. They were Thomas; Sarah, wh. m.

Of descend. of this Robert, in the male line, full acco. is print. by Rev. George E. Day of Northampton. ROBERT, Ipswich, came in the Hopewell, Capt. Bundocke, 1635, from London, aged 30, freem. 2 June 1641, was liv. in 1681. Perhaps Sarah, uh. m. at I. 17 June 1674, David Fiske was his d. Hannah, wh. came in the Elizabeth and Ann 1635, aged 20, may not have been a relat. SAMUEL, Gloucester, s. of Anthony, m. 9 Aug. 1692, Rachel, d. of Hugh Rowe, had two ch. whose names are not seen in Babson, wh. says she d. 6 Sept. 1698, and of the h. no more is kn. STEPHEN, Cambridge, the earliest printer on our side of the ocean, was a locksmith of Cambridge, Eng. brot. over, in the John, 1638, by Rev. Josse Glover wh. d. on the voyage. He began business in Mar. 1639, but was, I fear, unthrifty, for in 1647 the Almanac of his press purports to come from his s. wh. was very young, and the yr. foll. Greene bec. ruler in the office. Yet he was enterprising, hav. for his great service, unluckily, been reward. by grant of 300 acres in 1641, he was 2 yrs. after engag. in sett. of Lancaster, and reduc. to work as journeyman of Greene all his latter days.

He was a surgeon at Cambridge, and is honor. by Rev. Mr. Hale in his tract on Witchcraft, as saving in 1602, a woman charg. with the horrid offence.

RICHARD, Wethersfield a. 1640, bred at the Univ. of Cambridge where he had his A. B. 1623, being of Catherine Hall, perhaps came over in 1638, or 9; and we fear, that the long dissens. at W. about Rev.

DINELY, or DYNELEY, FATHERGONE, Boston, butcher, youngest s. of William, got his name from the incident of his f.'s loss "in a violent tempest of wind and snow," on 15 Dec. 1638, betw.

C. 1758, and J. A. Dix, late U. S. senator from New York. RALPH, Malden, freem. 1685, had liv. at Reading yrs. bef. SAMUEL, from Norwich, Eng. had leave to emb. at Great Yarmouth 8 Apr. 1637, being aged 43 yrs. with w. Joane, 38; two ch. Priscilla, and Abigail; and two serv. William Storey, and Daniel Linsey, to come to Boston to inhabit, but I have not yet learn. where he sat down. WILLIAM, Hartford, perhaps br. of Leonard, a single man, d. Mar. 1676 or 7. Six of this name, in 1834, had been gr. at Harv. DIXER. See Dixey. DIXEY, JOHN, Salem 1639. Felt. One JOHN, of Salem, m. 9 Dec. 1679, Sarah Collins; but he prob. was s. of the first Thomas. THOMAS, Salem 1637, had there bapt. Mary, 12 Jan. 1645; Abigail, 1 Oct. 1648; Thomas, 29 Jan. 1654; Margaret, 16 Mar. 1656; and John, 26 Apr. 1657; was of Marblehead 1674, d. 1691. Ano. Thomas, at Marblehead, sign. the petn. against imposts 1668, as did the Salem man. Yet perhaps it was the same man, for in such cases it is sometimes thot. that more value attaches to the number than to the argum. and undue artifice is employ. to swell the list. Margaret, aged 18, was one of the serv. of Percival Greene, emb. at London 1635, in the Susan and Ellen. WILLIAM, Salem, had come to Cape Ann 1629, was next at Lynn, had bapt. at S. Abigail, 25 Dec. 1636; Ann, 17 May 1638; John, 1639; Elizabeth 1641; and others; freem. 14 May 1634; was capt., of Beverly, a. 1677, and d. 1690, aet. 82. Lewis. Felt. Gibbs. Whitman. 3 Mass. Hist.

WILLIAM, prob. was of Charlestown 1633-8, Kittery 1649, freem. 1652, d. Mar. 1666, perhaps then of York. In his will of 13 Feb. of that yr. gave to w. Joan, s. James, d. Susanna Frost, perhaps w. of Charles, to John Brown, and to childr. of Henry Milbury. Seven of this name, beside four call. Dickson, had, in 1834, been gr. at the N. E. coll. tho. none of either at Harv. See Dickson. DIXWELL, JAMES, New Haven, a propr. 1685, unless the rec. be wrong, as by confus. with the assum. surname, I suspect. JOHN, Dorchester 1640, gave his sh. with others, in Thompson's Isld. 7 Feb. 1642, for support of a free sch. My insert. of this name should be accomp. with explanat. that no other notice of such an one, near that time, is found. What thus I read in the lithograph copy publish. by the Dorchester Antiq. and Hist. Soc. as frontisp. to that Ed. of Blake's Ann. 1846, the No. on the list being 47, is by a writer of considerab. research, in Geneal. Reg. [[55]] V. 391, call. John Pearce. Yet it may be necessary, for whoever will form an opinion on either side, to ask wh. of the two, No. 30, or No. 47, is likely to be the fac-simile of signature of John Pierce, wh. had been selectman and rep. of the town, and soon after the date of the benefact. rem. to Boston. JOHN, New Haven, came in 1664, it is said, after long concealm. in Europe or elsewhere, flying from prosecut. as one of the regicides, but it is suppos. his first quiet resid. was at Hadley, with Goffe and Whalley, under shelter of Rev. John Russell, tho. the length of time is unkn. At New Haven he was call. by hims. and others, James Davids, m. 3 Nov. 1673, I think for sec. w. Joanna, wid. of Benjamin Ling, with wh. (wh. d. in few wks.) he obtain. comfortab. prop. and he m. again 23 Oct. 1677, Bethia or Bathsheba How, d. of Jeremy, had Mary, b. 9 June 1679; John, 6 Mar. 1681; and Elizabeth 14 July 1682, wh. d. young. His wid. d. at Middletown 27 Dec. 1729, aged 83, so that she was 39 yrs. younger than her h. His concealm. was perfect, but his real name was kn. to one or more of the chief peop. and confess. by hims. shortly bef. his d. 18 Mar. 1690 in his 82d yr. His only d. Mary, m. 23 Dec. 1707, John Collins of Middletown. The family was and still is highly respect. in Kent; and in the gr. civ. war, the head of it, Sir Basil, stood and suffer. for the royal cause. JOHN, Boston, s. of the preced. took his f.'s true name, was in good esteem at New Haven, m. 1 Sept. 1708, Mary, d. of John Prout, rem. to Boston, was a goldsmith, a rul. Elder of the new North ch. d. 2 Apr. 1725 of smallpox by inocul. leav. his 2d w. Abigail and ch.

The f. left small est. no will; and his s. John, wh. was of ar. co. 1741, d. 1749, without male issue. By w. Abigail Bridgham of Boston, m. 18 Apr. 1723, female line perpetuat. the stock, and John Hunt, H. C. 1796, a descend. was permit. to assume the surname of the regicide. DOANE, DANIEL, Eastham 1658, perhaps s. of John, m. Hepzibah Cole, had Constant, b. 7 Mar. 1670. EPHRAIM, Eastham, may have been br. of the preced. m. 5 Feb. 1668, Mercy Knowles, prob. d. of Richard, had Patience, b. 28 Jan. 1669, d. soon; Apphia, 18 (Col.

HENRY, Watertown 1643. + JOHN, Plymouth 1630, an Assist. 1633, but not after, as he declin. the civ. office on being chos. deac.; rem. 1644 to Eastham, there was deac. and d. 21 Feb. 1686. His age was great, perhaps 95. One report of his d. makes it in 1707, and age 110, but it is not support. by any authority; and prob. the f. and s. possib gr.s. of the same name were confus. by the [[56]] reporter of the childish exagger. His w. Abigail had, beside Daniel, bef. ment. John; Ephraim; Lydia, wh. m. 1645, Samuel Hicks; Abigail, b. 13 Jan. 1632, at the age of 60, bec. sec. w. of Samuel Lothrop, outliv. him many yrs. and d. 23 Jan. 1735.

But the b. of Doreas is made 11 days later than the bapt. Many such gross errors fall under our notice in rec. of Boston and other towns as well as Salem; and when the ch. or the town rec. is to be prefer. must commonly be decid in favor of the ch. for obvious reason. Yet at New Haven the opposite conclus. is the right one, for the town rec. is unusual. correct, and that of the ch. very inexact. Two fifths of those in the Geneal. Reg. IX. 357-63, are wrong. This name of Dove, in the Hist. Coll. of Essex Inst. II. 43, is made Dour, thro. misread. of the old chirography for the last letter, as I presume; but Mr. Patch very rarely fails. Hannah m. 20 Mar. 1671, Richard Harris. DOW, FRANCIS, Salisbury, in the rec. of proprs. has the prefix of respect, and is third in the list, came from the city of Salisbury in Co.

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

He went home early in 1642, back next yr. and went again, in 1644, on business, but came back next yr. The date of his d. is not found, nor that of his w. tho. we see proof of his req. to the Gen. Ct. Sept. 1653 for his 600 acres to be laid out, and of her liv. 4 Aug. 1656, when she gave to Capt. Joseph Gardner dowry on his m. with her d. and the same shows that her h. Emanuel was d. The s.

There was a John D. wh. d. at Boston 29 Apr. 1694, but he was a merch. from Nevis, where was his fam. and est. GEORGE, Salem, s. of the preced. b. in London, was partly prepar. for coll. by Rev. John Fiske, and gr. in the first class H. C. 1642, went to Eng. by way of Newfoundland, St. Kitts, Barbados, and Nevis, and in each isl. was desir. to preach, but perhaps saw prospect of greater usefulness in his native land, where he bec. as his uncle Winthrop tells, 1645, a chaplain in the regim. of Okey, wh. after was made one of the judges to sign the warrant for execut. of Charles 1. He got forward fast (possib. faster, as Okey sunk), in favor with Cromwell, wh. made him his resident at the Hague; and in 1654 unit. with "the blood of all the Howards" by m. with Frances, descend. thro. the sec. s. from that fourth Duke of Norfolk, wh. was by Queen Elizabeth behead. for tenderness to Mary, Queen of Scots. The Hon. Charles Howard, br. of Frances, was the first, of only three, by Oliver creat. peers of Eng. under the title of Viscount Morpeth. The infirmity of this honor was, soon after the restor. strengthen. by his creat. 20 Apr. 1661, as first Earl of Carlisle, wh. title is now enjoy. by his lineal heirs. Previous to this dignity conferr. on the Howard stock, and even bef. his restor. the kin, had made D. a knight for his good conduct in Holland; and, 1 July, 1663, he was made baronet, by the style of Sir George D. of Gamlingay, in Co. Cambridge, where his est. was call. the largest in that county. His w. d. 10 July 1683, and he d. 1684. His s.

In possess. of Dawson Turner, Esqr. F. A. S. at Great Yarmouth, is a collect. of Downing papers, in wh. some curious matter may prob. exist. I had slight inspect. of them in 1842, but look. only at the earliest, when the N. E. youth was scout-master-gen. in Scotland. A despatch from Downing, of 3 Sept. 1651, that day of Worcester route, wh. Cromwell, with proper forecast, call. his crowning mercy, may be read in Cary's Memorials of the civ. war, Vol. II. It is far more perspicuous and soldier-like than that of the Command.-in-Chief. But the skill or valor of such a field was no longer in request, and it was to his fidel. probity, and diligence in other affairs that Oliver direct. John Milton to certify. Winthrop II. 241. Hutch.

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

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

VINCENT, Hingham 1637, freem. 1645, as Mr. Paige conject. when the name is writ. Vincent Ruth, as perhaps his utterance was indistinct, and the clk. wh. enrol. judg. by sound. I concur in this astute conject. for two reasons; (beside the strangeness of such a surname) Vincent is exceeding. rare as bapt. name;--and the next above and below him in the Rec. list, was a Hingham man; rem. bef. 1652 to Cambridge, liv. on S. side of the riv. now Newton, had sh. in the div. for Cambridge people of Shawsheen lds. and in that rec. his name is Druse, as also in Roxbury rec.

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

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

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

Both s. were of Wickford 1674, but, both being in the interest of Conn. they may not have been perman. sett. Taken prisoner by Conn. when R.

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

Sarah, third d. of Thomas Willet, the disting. first Eng. mayor of N. Y. of wh. the Cambridge rec. gives date of d. 13 June 1664, but Jackson's Hist. says 1665. By her he had Sarah, bapt. 21 Sept. 1662, wh. m. 16 Nov. 1681, John Bowles. He m. next, 23 May 1666, Elizabeth d. of Daniel Gookin, had John, b. 28 Apr. 1667, H.

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

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

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

JOHN, Salem, neph. of John of Gloucester, H. C. 1675, was, doubtless, the worthy preach. at Berwick, wh. had the happy escape, on the night of 27 June 1689, when Maj. Waldron of Dover and fifty-one of his comp. were massacred or made prison. by the Ind. hav. declin. the req. of the hospit. soldier to lodge at his house, as the Appendix, art. 4 to Magn. VII. relates; Belkn. and Alden foll. his auth. mistake him for [[118]] the future min. of Portsmouth, wh. was not then gr. See Niles and Belkn. I. 130. He had been employ. as sch.master at Newbury 1681, at a later day perhaps at Gloucester, freem. 1691, certain. taught in Charlestown, and last at Salem 1699 until his d. 1712. Felt, I. 439. At Charlestown, by w. Sarah had Sarah, b. 7, bapt. 11 Aug. 1695. Prob. he was never ord. JOHN, Newbury, a lieut. by w.

JOSEPH, Ipswich 1638, perhaps s. of Thomas, York, freem. 1653, preach. two or three yrs. also at Wells, 1664 and foll. bec. first min. of Mendon, ord. a. 1667, and cont. until the destruct. 1675, of the town in Philip's war, rem. to Concord, there d. 3 Jan. 1680; m. 7 Dec. 1665, Elizabeth d. of Rev. Edward Bulkley, had three s. of wh. Peter, wh. m. a Brown, and Edward, wh. m. Mary, d. of Rev. Samuel Moody, were progen. of a long list of clerg. His wid. m. Capt. John Brown of Reading.

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

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

He enjoy. great length of life, I believe; and beside the serv. to his country in hav. so many ch. he merits high reward as one of that noble jury, wh. had yield. to the monstrous dictat. of the Ct. in the witchcraft cases 1692, at Salem, every man of them declar. that none of them wd. "do such things again on such grounds for the whole world." SYLVESTER, Gloucester, had been a baker at Boston 1642, at G. was selectman 1647, 9, and 51; had w.

At Gloucester a tradit. prevails, that Joseph d. 45, aged 105, wh. partly conflicts with, partly confirms, that one about John; and the Supplem. to the Boston Evening Post of 16 Dec. 1745, [[130]] cont. this obit. notice: "On the 2d inst. d. at Ipswich, Mr. Joseph Eveleth in the hundred and seventh yr. of his age--left sev. ch. of a great age, one of wh. is upwards of 70 yrs. old." Reasonab. therefore, may we believe that John, or Joseph, ran something over a century. EVERDEN, ANTHONY, Providence, took the o. of alleg. May 1666. RICHARD, Providence, sw. alleg. June 1668. THOMAS, Salem 1682, a Quaker preach. WALTER, from Kent, an aged man, employ. in manuf. of gunpowder, was in Mass. Aug. 1674. Hutch. Coll. 468.

STEPHEN, perhaps br. of the preced. hav. the same alias, and com. in the same sh. with him. No more is kn. of him. It may be unavailing to ask why this fam. is describ. in all the rec. by a double surname, as was the progen. of famous Oliver Cromwell, by the precession of Williams. Webb was a com. name in Wilts, and in many other parts of Eng. WILLIAM, Charlestown, without the alias, m. 30 Jan. 1659, Sarah Fillebrown. EVERELL. See Everill. EVEREST, ISAAC, Guilford, by w.

His wid. Elizabeth d. June 1715; but in one draft of a fam. geneal. that has been subm. to my inspect. the dates of d. for h. and w. are exchang. RICHARD, Dedham, whose name is uniform. giv. Everard, had, I presume, liv. at Watertown, there, prob. by w.

Perhaps he was the man against wh. charge for language against the king, in 1637, was brot. by Lord Ley, so easily got rid of by Gov. Winthrop I. 234; but he might soon after have seem. in greater danger for error in his relig. opin. as he was one of the friends of Wheelwright. Yet his discretion in recant. is observ.

Christian, had Samuel, b. last week of Mar. 1655; and Mehitable, last week of May 1656; d. at B. 27 Dec. 1693. Farmer says he was early mem. of the Bapt. ch. at Boston, where the spelling is Farlow. Timothy was k. with seven others by the Ind. at Brookfield 2 Aug. 1675. MESHACK, or MESHECH, Ipswich, s. of Michael, m. 6 Aug. 1684, Sarah, d. of Thomas Barnham, wid. of .....Clark, had Meshack, b. 10 June 1685; Michael, 2 Aug. 1686; and Jane, d. young; d. bef. his f. leav. wid. Sarah, and s. Meshack, and Michael. Admin. was gr. 23 Dec. 1696, and the two s. acknowledged rec. 14 Mar. 1712, from their uncle Michael, of their portions of f.'s est. and the elder of these two s. d. 6 Mar. 1716. MICHAEL, Ipswich, sent over, says Farmer, 1675, from Eng. by Richard Saltonstall to have care of his fulling mill, had Meshack, bef. ment. and Michael. MICHAEL, Ipswich, s. perhaps, of Meshack, but more prob. of the preced. m. 1708, Mary, wid. of Benjamin Woodbury of Beverly, had issue, it is thought; and perhaps Gen. Michael, wh. d. 20 June 1789, Shf. of Essex, was a descend. Seven of this name had been gr. at Harv. 1834, and three at other N. E. coll. FARMAN, RALPH, came from London, a barber-surgeon 1635, aged 32, in the James, with w. Alice, 28; ch. Mary, 7; Thomas, 4; and Ralph, 2; but I find nothing of his resid. or d. and think it not improb. that he was one of the first sett. of Andover, and his name was Farnum or Farnham. But THOMAS Farman was of Milford 1658, and may not have been s. of the preced. FARMER, EDWARD, Billerica, s. of John of Ansley, or Anceley, near Atherstone in Warwicksh. came in 1671 or 2 with his mo. Isabella, a wid. wh. m. Elder Thomas Wiswall of Newton, outliv. him, and d. 21 May 1686 at the ho. of her s. He brot. perhaps, sis. Isabella and br. Thomas, certainly w. Mary, d. Sarah, b. a. 1669; and prob.

His w. d. 26 Mar. 1719, aged a. 76, and he d. 27 May 1727, a. 87. His paternal acres through desc. of his youngest s. to wh. f. gave them is still the inherit. of 6th generat. Sarah m. Nov. 1692, Thomas Pollard; Mary m. John Dean; and Elizabeth m. 29 May 1707, William Green. EDWARD, Billerica, s. of the preced. m. Mary, d. of Thomas Richardson, had Mary; Andrew, b. 27 Mar. 1709; and Elizabeth His w. d. 15 May 1746; and he d. 17 Dec. 1752. JOHN, Boston, a soldier in Moseley's comp. k. in the gr. fight of Philip's war; 19 Dec. 1675. JOHN, Concord, of wh. I read only, that his d. Isabel was w. of [[142]] David Wyman, m. 27 Apr. 1675; and after his d. m. 19 Nov. 1679, James Blood; and was of Charlestown 1677. JOHN, Billerica, s. of first Edward, b. prob. in Eng. d. 9 Dec. 1736, aged 65, by w. Abigail, wh. d. 20 Mar. 1754, had Dorothy, Barbara, John, Daniel, Richard, Edward, Jacob, and William; but the order of b. is uncert. OLIVER, Billerica, youngest br. of the preced. m. Abigail, d. of Ebenezer Johnson, gr.d. of Hon. William, and gr. gr.d. of Capt. Edward, auth. of Wonderwork. Provid. of Zion's Saviour in N.

THOMAS, Billerica 1675, prob. br. of first Edward, perhaps came with him, is not heard of after 1684, and may have gone home. THOMAS, Billerica, s. of Edward the first, m. Elizabeth Hunt as in his Fam. Register, Concord, 1813, wrote the gr. antiq. (but a modern authority, not of higher reput. for accur. in a "Genealog. Memoir," p. 27, gives the name Sarah), had Thomas; Joseph, d. soon; Joseph, again; Susanna; Josiah, or Jonas; Elizabeth; Joshua; Samuel; and Benjamin. He and his w. d. at Hollis, a. 1767, and were bur. in one gr. A large genealog. mem. of many branches of first Edward's descend. is giv. in Geneal. Reg. but it has nothing beyond the names of the ch. of the eldest s. and of those of Thomas. In the royal chart. for Virg. 1609 are found John and George Farmer, gent. Haz. I. 61-3. FARNHAM, FARNAM, or FARNUM, EPHRAIM, Andover, s. of Ralph, m. 20 Mar. 1700, Priscilla Holt, had Ephraim, Joseph, Zebediah, Josiah, James, and perhaps others. || HENRY, Roxbury, joiner, ar. co. 1644, freem. 1645; the name in ch. rec. being Farnham, but in col. rec. made Firnam, was not long at R. perhaps went to L. I. thence to Conn. certainly was of Killingworth 1666, a deac. d. 13 Jan. 1700; left only s. Peter. JOHN, Dorchester, freem. 13 May 1640, perhaps br. of the preced. prob. one of the founders of 2d ch. at Boston June 1650; and in 1666 was imprison. for heresy, and turned into a bapt. by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth wh. m. 6 Aug. 1657, Joshua Carwithee; Jonathan, b.at D. 16 Jan. 1639; Hannah, 9 Nov. 1642; Joanna, 3 Mar. 1645; John, wh. d. 26 Aug. 1652; and Rachel, wh. m. Thomas Martyn. JOHN, Andover, m. 12 Nov. 1667, [[143]] Rebecca Kent, d. of Stephen of Newbury, had John, b. 1670, d. next yr.; and David, d. 30 Nov. 1687. Perhaps he had sec. w. Mary Tyler, and by her Ann, wh. d. 20 Apr. 1696. JOHN, Boston, m. 7 Apr. 1654, prob. as sec. w. Susanna, d. of Thomas Arnold of Watertown, had John, b. 20 May 1655; and Jonathan, 13 Nov. 1659, freem. 1671, then of first ch. His d. Joanna m. 7 Jan. 1658, James English. JOHN, Andover, s. of Ralph, perhaps, but not prob. is he wh. m. 30 June 1693, Mary Tyler. JONATHAN, Boston, s. of first John, was a capt. JOSEPH, Boston, freem. 1674. PETER, Killingworth, m. Hannah Wilcoxson, had seven ch. d. 14 Feb. 1704, and his wid. m. Nathaniel Royce of Wallingford. RALPH, Andover, m. 26 Oct. 1658, Elizabeth d. of Nicholas Holt, had Sarah, b. 1661, wh. m. 22 Apr. 1685, Benjamin Abbot; Ralph, 1662; John, 1664; Henry, 1666, d. 7 May 1683; Hannah, 1668; beside Thomas, Ephraim, and perhaps others earlier or later; and d. 8 Jan. 1692. Tradit. makes him come from Wales, but I can hardly receive it. Who was his f. I have not learned, but imagine his name to have been Ralph, and that he was f. of Mary, wh. m. at Andover, 20 Oct. 1650, Daniel Poor; and of Sarah, wh. m. 26 Apr. 1658, George Abbot. See Farman. SAMUEL, Andover, perhaps br. of Ephraim, and s. of Thomas the first, m. 4 Jan. 1698, Hannah Holt. THOMAS, Andover, prob. br. of Ralph, and brot. with him in ch.hood by their f. m. 8 July 1660, Elizabeth Sibborns, wh. d. 26 Aug. 1683; freem. 1669, and he d. 11 Jan. 1686, aged a. 53. Thomas, their s. d. 6 Oct. 1672. THOMAS, Andover, s. of Ralph, perhaps, or of the preced. m. 14 May 1693, Hannah Hutchinson. Descend. of these Andover stocks are many, usually writing the name, as did, also, John of Dorchester, Farnham. But at the various N. E. coll. it is not easy to adjust them. FARNSWORTH, JOSEPH, Dorchester, freem. 14 Mar. 1639, by w. Elizabeth had Mary, b. 30 Mar. 1637; Hannah, 14 Dec. 1638; Rebecca, 2 Jan. 1640; and Ruth, 3 June 1642; beside Joseph, Samuel, and perhaps others, by sec. w. wid. Mary Long; was selectman 1647, and d. 12 Jan. 1660. In his will of 2 Jan. preced. Geneal. Reg. IX. 140, provis. is made for his w. Mary and her two ch. by former h.

Mary, had Joseph, b. 17 Nov. 1657, d. at 17 yrs.; Mary, 11 Oct. 1660; at L. and at G. had Samuel, 8 Oct. 1669, and prob. others, after, or more likely bef. as Benjamin, John, Matthew, and Samuel, had fams. there in 1691; d. 1689, aged 77. His will is of Jan. in that yr. See Butler's Hist. 395, 6. Mary m. 11 Apr. 1676, Samuel Thatcher of [[144]] Watertown.

Mr. F. wh. came from N. E. and d. very poor. FARR, BARNABAS, Boston, perhaps not perman. inhab. d. 13 Dec. 1654. BENJAMIN, Lynn, s. of George, freem. 1691, m. 28 July 1680, Elizabeth d. of Francis Burrill, had Elizabeth b. 3 July 1682; Mary, 28 July 1684; and perhaps others.

JAMES, Newport 1638. JOHN, Stow, perhaps gr.s. of George, m. 11 May 1703, Hannah, d. of John Applin of Watertown. JOSEPH, Lynn, s. of George, freem. 1682, m. 22 Sept. 1680, Hannah Walden, had Elizabeth b. 15 Aug. 1681; Mary, 28 Feb. 1684; and perhaps others. It has been supposed by some, that this name is the same as Farrar. FARRABAS, DANIEL, Cambridge, Concord, and Marlborough, m. 27 Jan. 1660, Rebecca Perriman, wh. d. 1 May 1677; and he m. 22 May 1679, Dorothy Rediat.

Oct. 1687. The name was writ. there Forbush, and his youngest s. was call. Forbes, as is shown by a careful inquirer in Geneal. Reg. VII. 135. His wid. m. 22 May 1688, Alexander Stewart. FARRAND, NATHANIEL, Milford 1645, was prob. f. of Elizabeth wh. m. 26 Sept. 1676, Walter Smith of the same; certain. of Hannah, wh. m. 1674, Thomas Thornton of Hartford. Of this name, five, perhaps all descend. have been gr. at Yale. FARRAR, EPHRAIM, soldier of Capt. Lothrop's Comp. call. "the flower of Essex," k. 18 Sept. 1675, by the Ind. at Bloody brook. GEORGE, Lancaster, s. of Jacob, m. 7 Sept. 1692, Mary How of Concord, whither, I suppose, he rem. and prob. sat down in that part now Lincoln, had Joseph; Daniel; George, b. 16 Feb. 1705, f. of Rev.

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

He d. 11 July 1690, made his win 29 June 1687; and his wid. liv. long. Joanna m. 30 Nov. 1680, Robert Doyle. THOMAS, Lynn 1639, whose w.

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

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

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

FELMINGHAM, or FILLINGHAM, FRANCIS, Salem 1637, came from Brampton in Suff. aged 32, that yr. with Benjamin Cooper, his f.-in-law, by the Mary Ann, from Yarmouth.

FENWICK, GEORGE, Saybrook, came in May 1636 to Boston from Eng. not, as often said, 1635 (as by the letters of 10 and 23 June of the later yr. from Gov. Winthrop to his s.

From that, wh. tells, also, that he was engag. as physician, in extensive practice, I learn, that he m. 1724, Rebecca Smith, had nine ch. and d. 1746.

The name, in descend. of first Nicholas, has been well perpet. nine of wh. 5 were min. were s. of H.C. and as many more in 1834 at other N.

Mary wid. of Joseph Hardy, d. of John Grafton, had Grafton, b. 31 Mar. 1689; and Benjamin, 14 Jan. 1693; and she d. Nov. 1705. This may be name of a Huguenot refugee. FIELD, ALEXANDER, Charlestown 1640, shoemaker, rem. to Salem 1642, with a w. was freem. 1649, may have rem. to New Haven, there m. Gillian, wid. of Richard Mansfield, and d. 1666. His wid. d. 1670.

JOHN, Providence 1637, prob. was of Bridgewater after 1655. JOHN, Providence, sw. alleg. June 1668, and was then call. junr. so that he may have been s. of the preced. and perhaps Ruth, wh. m. 7 Jan. 1669, John Angel, was his sis. But whether Deborah, wh. d. there 1679, were mo. sis. ch. or cous. is only for conject.

ROBERT, Boston, tailor, came in the James from Southampton, arr. 3 June 1635, in the clearance call. of Yealing, or Pealing, as Mr. Somerby read the docum. was prob. at Providence 1638, but soon after came to B. by w.

He serv. in Philip's war, espec. at the Falls fight under Turner, 18 May 1676, in revenge for wh. (it is believ.) he was k. over 20 yrs. later, in time of peace, by the Ind. 24 July 1697. THOMAS, Salem, m. 2 Mar. 1681, Mary, d. of John Leach, had Thomas, b. 17 Jan. foll.; Mary, 4 Sept. 1683; and Samuel, 5 Dec. of uncert. yr. THOMAS, Providence, wh. sw. alleg. 1 June 1667, was, perhaps neph. certainly success. to William at Field's point, had one d. and twelve s. of wh. were Thomas, Jeremiah, William, Anthony, Charles, John, Jonathan, Joseph, and Nathaniel, all at or near Providence; did not rem. in 1676, and d. 10 Aug. 1717. à WILLIAM, Providence, perhaps br. of John, complain. 1643, against Samuel Gorton to governm. of Mass. was Assist. 1650, 8, 60, and in new chart. 1663. WILLIAM, Providence, s. perhaps of Thomas, had Thomas, b. 3 Jan. 1670; Mary, 1 June 1673; Elizabeth 27 Aug. of yr. not visible; Amos, without day or month, 1677; and William, 8 June 1682, as in his fam. bible is writ. ZECHARIAH, Hartford 1639, had w. Mary, rem. a. 1659 to Northampton, thence, 1663, to Hatfield, d. 28 June 1666; had Mary, b. a. 1643, m. 4 Oct. 1663, Joshua Carter; Zechariah; John; Samuel; and Joseph; as above ment.

ZECHARIAH, Providence, sw. alleg. May 1671, and in 1676, staid thro. the war; may have been of Dover 1664, possib. s. of Darby, but much more prob. of John, or William; by w. Sarah had s. Zechariah, b. 30 Jan. 1686; and Daniel, 9 Aug. 1690; and was liv. 1708. Twenty-seven of this name have been gr. at N. E. coll. of wh. 5 clerg. and only one at Harv. FIELDER, STEPHEN, Boston, m. Mary, d. of John Griggs of Roxbury, had Sarah, b. 30 May 1685. I suppose he liv. but a short time, and perhaps at R. where Sarah m. 24 May 1704, John Ruggles. FIENNES, CHARLES, a signer of the addr. with Gov. Winthrop 7 Apr. 1630, on board the Arbella, was of the noble house of Say and Seale. See Hutch. I. 487; and Young's Chron. of Mass. 298. It is writ. Fines, perhaps in conform. with sound. If he did not land in the way down channel, he, no doubt, went home in July with Revel, one of the Assist. to secure supplies for the Col. He was b. at Broughton, Co. Oxford, bred at the University of that city, d. 14 Apr. 1662, always a good fr. of N. E. and one of the patentees of Conn. Trumbull, Hist. I. 495. One [[158]] of his ds. m. Theophilus, Earl of Lincoln, wh. was br. of the ws. of our Isaac Johnson and John Humphrey. FIFIELD, ABRAHAM, Woburn, perhaps s. of Giles, d. 11 Sept. 1711, aged 57. BENJAMIN, Hampton, prob. s. of William, m. 28 Dec. 1670, Mary, d. of Edward Colcord, had Mehitable, b. 9 Apr. 1687, perhaps others, was k. by the Ind. 1 Aug. 1706, aged a. 60. GILES, Charlestown, m. 7 June 1652, Mary, d. of Abraham Perkins of Hampton, had two or more ch. and rem. to Hampton, there had Mary, b. 28 Nov. 1659, d. soon; perhaps went back in few yrs. to C. and had there bapt. Abraham; Giles; Richard, b. 20 Dec. 1663, d. soon; Richard, 6 Nov. 1665; John; and Mary, again, 15 Sept. 1667; all exc.the first Richard, on 19 June 1670; Deborah, 6 July 1673; and Thomas, 9 Jan. 1676; but the two last, whose mo. d. 1676, were by sec. w. m. 2 May 1672, Judith, wid. of Samuel Convers, eldest d. of Rev.

WILLIAM, came in the Hercules 1634, was prob. at Ipswich first, next yr. at Newbury, rem. 1639 to Hampton, there m. sec. w. 26 Oct. 1693, Hannah Cram, unless she was w. of the sec. William of H. wh. d. 8 Mar. 1715, aged 66; and d. 18 Dec. 1700, aged 85. The Hampton rec. says Mary F. aged 80 yrs. d. Nov. 1683. Perhaps she was mo. of first William. FILCHER ------, Braintree, an officer of the sett. at Mount Wollaston 1626. Prince, in Ann. prints the name Fitcher, and Baylies, I. 135, obeys him; but Morton, 136, Hubbard, 103, Increase Mather, and others, give it as above. He was driven away by the wild company of Morton of Merry Mount, as the Plymouth Morton tells. FILER, or FYLER, GEORGE, Northampton, a surgeon, neph. of Walter, had Judith, b. 1664; and Samuel, 1666; rem. to Westfield, bec. a Quaker, and rem. it is thought, to Shelter isl. 1674. JOHN, Windsor, s. of Walter, was a trader, m. 17 Oct. 1672, Elizabeth Doleman, and in 1686 m. Bethesda Pool, d. of William of Dorchester, and d. 1723, without ch. but leave good est. *WALTER, Dorchester 1630, came prob. in the Mary and John, freem. 14 May 1634, rem. to Windsor 1636, had John, b. 12, bapt. 18 Sept. 1642, H.

ZERUBABEL, Windsor, s. of the preced. m. 27 May 1669, Experience, d. of Elder John Strong of Northampton, had Thomas, b. 25 Jan. bapt. 6 Mar. 1670; Jane, 1 Jan. bapt. 7 1672; Zerubabel, 31 Oct. 1673, d. soon; Zerubabel, again, 25 Dec. 1674; John, 2 Mar. 1676; rem. to Suffield, and had Samuel, and Abigail, tw. 5 Jan. 1680, both d. soon; Samuel, again, 26 Sept. 1681, d. young; Abigail, 8 Apr. 1683; went back to W. and had there Stephen, [[159]] 1688; Ebenezer, 2 Dec. 1690, d. soon; Experience, 25 Dec. 1691; and Elizabeth 2 June 1694; and he d.

FILIN, or FILEEN, JOHN, came 1637, in the Mary Ann from Yarmouth, in comp. with Philemon Dickinson, as servants of Benjamin Cooper, who was of Brampton in Suff. No more is kn. of him. FILLEBROWN, THOMAS, Charlestown 1658, Cambridge 1665, or earlier, by w. Anna had Thomas ; and Mary, both b. bef. 1666; Anna, bapt. 14 Oct. 1666, d. 9 Aug. 1685. [See Harris, Epit. 13.] He was freem. 1666 or 8, the name being ent. at each yr. and d. 7 June 1713, and his w. d. 31 Mar. foll. both aged 82. Harris, 46, 47. But it is observ. he supposes him to be s. of Gordon F. when we believe no such person existed. The error prob. arose from misread. the abbr.--Goo. for goodman, as if it were a name of bapt.--Gordon. Mary m. 8 Oct. 1688, Nathaniel Cutter. THOMAS, Cambridge, s. of the preced. m. 16 Dec. 1688, Rebecca, d. of Richard Cutter. FILLEY, SAMUEL, Windsor, s. of William, m. 29 Oct. 1663, Ann, d. of Jonathan Gillet, had Ann, b. 16 Aug. 1664; Mary, 12 Apr. 1667; Abigail, 20 Jan. 1669, d. soon; Samuel, 2 Apr. 1670, d. young; Jonathan, 30 Nov. 1672; Samuel, again, 7 Mar. 1674; Josiah, 21 Jan. 1676; John, 18 Feb. 1678; and Abigail, again, 3 Jan. 1680; and Samuel, again, 8 Sept. 1681; and Mary, again, 14 Dec. 1683.

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

JEREMIAH Bristol, by Dr. Stiles mark. as hav. a w. in Feb. 1689, as also, is JOSHUA, at the same time, but of either no more is told. * ROBERT, Plymouth 1643, was rep. 1657, and 8 yrs. more, deac. 1667, d. 7 Jan. 1688, aet. 88; and his wid. Phebe d. 1710, aged 91. More common spell. of this name is Phinney, wh. see. FIRMIN, FERMAN, or FIRMAN, GILES, Boston, came from Sudbury in Co. Suff. 1630, no doubt with Rev. George Phillips, wh. was min. of that parish, in the fleet with Winthrop first sat down at Watertown with his former teach. but rem. in two yrs. to B. where his s. of the same name had some time prior join. our ch.; was chos. deac. in 1633, and a selectman, freem. 4 Mar. 1634, and d. in Sept. foll. GILES, Boston, s. of the preced. came, perhaps, with his f. 1630, but sett. at B. bef. him, rem. prob. with Rev. John Ward, his br.-in-law, to Haverhill, but first was at Ipswich 1638, freem. 22 May 1639; m. Susan, d. of Rev. Nathaniel Ward; practised physic, hav. been bred at the univ. of Cambridge; in 1644, or soon after, went home, and preach. with gr. effect, sett. as rector at Shalford in Essex. In a sermon bef. Parliam. and the Westminster Assembly, he said, that in our country, in seven yrs. "I never heard one profane oath, and all that time never did see a man drunk," wh. is better proof of his keeping good comp. than of searching for opportunity. Punishm. were frequent enough for such offences; but his presence was, no doubt, protection of both eyes and ears. He was ejected, as Calamy shows, in 1662, and d. at Ridgewell, Apr. 1697. JOHN, Watertown 1630, came, prob. in the fleet with Winthrop lost his hut by fire in Nov. of the first yr. freem. 18 May 1631. Perhaps he went home, and came again, from Ipswich in Suff. by the Elizabeth 1634, aged 46, was selectman 1638, and deac. JOSIAH, Boston 1640, liv. with Gov. Winthrop freem. 2 June 1641. ROBERT, Newtown, L. I. one of the first sett. 1645. THOMAS, Ipswich, freem. 22 May 1639, had w.

GABRIEL, Boston, an early inhab. rem. 1638 to Exeter, but in short time came to B. again, by w. Elizabeth had Deborah, b. 20 Dec. 1642; but the ch. rec. says she was bapt. 11, aged a. 8 days; Abel, 5, bapt. 23 Dec. 1644. JOHN, Lynn, rem. 1637 to Sandwich, carr. s.

He d. 7 Apr. foll. SAMUEL, Wenham, s. of John, not the Rev. but the constable, freem. 1680, of wh. I kn. no more, exc. that bef. Mar. 1694 he had rem. to Milford. STEPHEN, Reading, call. by Eaton an early sett. * THOMAS, Wenham, s. of Phineas, came prob. with his f. in early youth was rep. 1671, 2, and often after, espec. in the Revo. time 1689-91, a capt. was foreman of the jury in that sad case of witchcraft of Rebecca Nurse, after verdict of not guilty, prevailed on to convict by the wonderful perversity and extraordinary ignorance of the Court. His shocking confession against hims. and the judges is in Hutch. II. 52. THOMAS, Wenham, prob. s. of the preced. m. 3 Nov. 1678, Rebecca, youngest ch. of Rev. William Perkins, was freem. 1690. * WILLIAM, Salem 1637, br. of Rev. John, with wh. he prob. came, as he had gr. of ld. that yr. freem. 18 May 1642, rem. to Wenham, and was the first town clk. or clk. of the writs, 1644, had by w. Bridget Musket of Pelham, m. in Eng. William, Samuel, Joseph, Benjamin, and Martha, some, perhaps most, b. in Eng. but William was bapt. at Salem 4 June 1643, yet he may have been 2d of the name; was rep. 1647-50, d. 1654. In the Col. Rec. I. 235, is settlem. of rights betw. him and his br. John, by wh. it seems that he was in Sept. 1638, under 24 yrs. of age. Endicot, Hathorne, and two other of the ch. men of S. made the terms of agreem. Prob. his wid. m. 3 Nov. 1661, Thomas Rix. of S. WILLIAM, Salem or Wenham, s. of the preced. was freem. 1670. WILLIAM, Watertown, s. of John the first, m. 20 Oct. 1693, Hannah, d. of John Smith, had William, b. 24 Aug. 1694, d. young; Hannah, 13 Oct. 1696, Mary, 1699, d. soon; Thomas, 12 Sept. 1701; William, again, 13 Mar. 1704; John, 24 Aug. 1706; and Samuel, 4 Jan. 1709. Of this name, sometimes spelled without e, twenty had many yrs. ago been gr. at Harv. of wh. 7 were clerg. and twenty at other N. E. coll. of wh. 9 were clerg. That the Coll. catal. capriciously divides the fam. is plain eno. as Rev. Moses has the authentic Eng. letters, and his s. Rev. Samuel loses the [[168]] final letter. Much of the foregoing is deriv. from a very val. tract on Suff. Emigr. by Rev. Joseph Hunter, F. A. S. in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 158, wh. informs us, that, at the Herald's office it appears, in early times, this fam. was entit. to coat armor. FITCH, * BENJAMIN, Reading, s. of Zechary, perhaps b. in Eng. had Benjamin, wh. d. 24 June 1662; and Zechary, wh. d. 16 Apr. 1684; was freem. 1679, rep. 1689, 91 and 2, deac. d. 1713. BENJAMIN, Boston, perhaps s. of the preced. m. 2 Mar. 1693, Mary Het, and d. 14 Dec. 1739, aged 73. DAVID, New London, s. of Rev. James, had David, Adonijah, and Mary, perhaps more. ELEAZER, Lebanon, youngest br. of the preced. m. his cous. Martha, d. of capt. John Brown, had no ch. JABEZ, Ipswich, s. of Rev. James, was tutor some time at Harv. ord. 1703, as collea. to Rev.

C. 1728; and James; rem. to Portsmouth, was there inst. a. 1725, d. 22 Nov. 1746. JAMES, Boston, a tailor, came in the Defence, 1635, aged 30, with w. Abigail, 24, and they both in Dec. foll. were adm. of our ch. had Elizabeth bapt. 15 May 1636; and I find no more of him, but that he was of Muddy riv. 1638. JAMES, Saybrook, b. 24 Dec. 1622, at Bocking, Co. Essex, was brot. a. 1638, to N. E. but where he was prepar. for the min. is unkn. tho. prob. with Hooker and Stone of Hartford, as the inscript. on his gr.st. tells, mak. the period of study seven yrs. and is in Mather's sec. classis. ord. 1646, by w. Abigail, d. of Rev. Henry Whitfield, had James, b. 2 Aug. 1649; Abigail, 5 Aug. 1650; Elizabeth 2 Jan. 1652; Hannah, 17 Dec. 1653; Samuel, early in Mar. 1655; and Dorothy, Apr. 1658. His w. d. 9 Sept. 1659; and next yr. he rem. to sett. Norwich with large pt. of his S. people, m. 2 Oct. 1664, Priscilla, d. of Maj. John Mason, had Daniel, b.

C. 1694; Ann, Apr. 1675; Nathaniel, Oct. 1679; Joseph, Nov. 1681; and Eleazur, 14 May 1683; all ment. as liv. in the will, 1696, and all but the last had fam. He gave up his office 1696, rem. to Lebanon, and d. 18 Nov. 1702. His d. Abigail m. prob. the sec. John Mason of Norwich; Elizabeth m. 5 Sept. 1674, Rev. Edward Taylor of Westfield, and d. 1689; Hannah m. it is said, Thomas Meeks, or Mix; Dorothy m. Nathaniel Bissell; and Ann m. 5 Oct. 1698, Joseph Bradford; but this makes strange discord with the Geneal. Reg. IV. 46 and 49. à JAMES, Lebanon, or Canterbury, eldest s. of the preced. was a man of importance, major, an Assist. of the Col. 1681, and prob. many yrs. later, m. 1 Jan. 1676, Elizabeth youngest d. of maj. John Mason own sis. of the sec. w. of his f. wh. d. 8 Oct. 1684, and by her had James, b. 1 Jan. 1678, d. soon; James again, 7 June 1679; Jedediah, 17 Apr. 1681; Samuel, 1684; and by sec. w.

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

James, d. at Conventry 22 May 1736, teach. us by his will of 8 Mar. preced. that he left w. Ruth, ch. Jeremiah, Abner, Gideon, Elisha, James, Hannah, and Ruth. JOHN, came in the Defence 1635, aged 14, and so might be suppos. br. of the first James; but a doubt arises, for the same London custom ho. rec. at Westminster Hall, I found, gave passage in the Blessing, on the same day, to one of the same name and age. Carelessness in parts of that rec. if not wilful mistakes, is quite apparent; but perhaps one of sev. foll. may be either passeng. JOHN, Rehoboth 1644, prob. had John, wh. was bur. Apr. 1676, prob. posthum. for I suppose the f. was k. by the Ind. 26 Mar. preced. a volunteer under Pierce. Baylies, II.200. JOHN, Windsor, d. 1676, on 9 May, of wound rec. in the gr. battle of 19 Dec. preced.; had been there many yrs. His w. d. bef. and he had no ch. was not a freem. prob. not relat. of the many in Conn. wh. then bore the name. JOHN, Gloucester, m. wid.

Samuel Stone, had Joseph, Nathaniel, perhaps ano. s. certain. sev. ds. was rep. 1662-8, then rem. to Windsor, there had large farm, enjoy. by sev. generat. of his posterity, and was liv. in 1713. With his mo. and elder br. he owned est. at Birch in Essex, wh. they gave power to Samuel Wyllis, when he went to Eng. to sell. He sold to his br.-in-law Hezekiah, s. of Gov. Haynes. JOSEPH, Reading, s. of Zechary of the same, by w. Hannah, m. 2 July 1661, had Hannah, b. 3 Mar. 1662, d. in few days; d. 1694, aet.59. Coffin. JOSEPH, Stonington, eighth s. of Rev.

James, prob. came with him in 1637, freem. 1657, was early the richest inhab. had Thomas, ana John bef. ment. and with them and well grown gr. childr. was liv. in 1688. But strangely Farmer makes him f. of Gov. Thomas. THOMAS, Boston, cordwainer, by w. Martha, d. of David Fiske the first of Watertown, had Martha, b. 9 Nov. 1656; Mary, 17 Feb. 1659; Sarah, 14 June 1661; Elizabeth 2 Aug. bapt. 4 Sept. 1664; and Thomas, 5 Feb. 1669. The ch. rec. of bapt. of one of his ds. calls him of Watertown, freem. 1666, d. 1678, leav. wid. Martha. THOMAS, Norwalk, s. of Thomas of the same, a serg. in 1672, had four ch. of wh. one d. bef. him. He d. 1690, leav. Sarah, then aged 21; Thomas, 19; Mary, 16; and Samuel 2 1/2. The third Norwalk Thomas, [[170]] s. of the preced. wh. d. 10 May 1731, was f. of Gov. Thomas, so that not only one generat. but two, were sunk in the common statement, as giv. by Farmer, of progenit. of the Gov. THOMAS, Wethersfield, s. of Samuel of the same, m. a. 1680, Abigail, d. prob. youngest of William Goodrich of the same, had Thomas, b. 20 July 1681, d. young; and Sibbil, 2 Nov. 1684, d. in few wks. as did the mo. in 5 days.

ZECHARY, Reading, freem. 7 Sept. 1638, had Samuel, b. 6 Mar. 1645; and Zechary, 20 June 1647; beside sev. other ch. was deac. and d. 9 June 1662. His will of 3 May preced. names w. Mary, s. Joseph, Samuel, Benjamin, John, Jeremiah, and Thomas, beside d. Sarah, w. of John Wessen or Weston of Salem. In some rec. this man's name and his S. are spell. Fitts and often, Fitz. Four of the name had, in 1828, been gr. at Harv. and sixteen at Yale. FITCHEW, PETER, Boston, a passeng. in the Champion, wh. drown. hims. as the inq. bef. Gov. Winthrop 18 May 1639, made return.

BARTHOLOMEW, Watertown, was a br. of the preced. and serv. in Moseley's comp. Dec. 1673, in the great Narraganset campaign of Philip's war. His name in Geneal. Reg.

Barry, from wh. I copy in part, says he was liv. 1691. Elizabeth and Mary m. Joshua, and Samuel, s. of John Bigelow, and brs. of Mary, w. of Michael F. In the rec. of W. the name is spell. Fleg, or Flegg, in conformity, as in our Eng. patronymics is so usual, with its geograph. deriv. but, in general, at other places, conform. to the sound. THOMAS, Watertown, s. of the preced. m. 18 Feb. 1668, Rebecca, d. of Edward Dikes or Dix, had Mary, b. 19 Dec. 1668; Hannah, 24 Apr. 1671; [[172]] Rebecca, 31 Jan. 1674; Jemima; Hepzibah; and Thomas; and d. 1719, at the pt. of the town wh. bec.

FLATMAN, THOMAS, Salem, perhaps, 1637, at least he then had gr. of land, but seems to have prefer. Braintree, where he had Elizabeth b. 7 May 1640; and Thomas, 3 July 1643; was freem. 13 May 1640, wh. the rec. makes the name Flackman. FLAVELL, THOMAS, Plymouth, came with a s. 1621, in the Fortune, and his w. foll. in the Ann, 1623; they had their shares, in 1624, at the div. of lds. but neither is count. in the div. of cattle 1627, so that we may suppose they had rem. or d.
