John Farmer`s original continuous text has been found by many genealogists to be quite cumbersome, not easy to follow with his constant use of abbreviations, and in places almost impossible to interpret. Over the past 18 months I have painstakingly sifted through Farmer`s condensed text, editing, rearranging, and reformating in the hopes of aiding researchers in their quest for family histories.

I cannot guarantee that my interpretations are correct, so like any professional genealogist using resource materials, I would suggest that other sources be used in your search for exactness.

JOHN GAFFINGSLEY, Kittery, made Ensign of the company by the Commissioners of Massachusetts 1668. Hutchinson 1. 267. Hubbard, 600, has the name Gattery.

JAMES GAFFORD, in History Collections of the Essex Institute I. 39, may be the same as

BENJAMIN GAGE, Haverhill, son of John Gage, was freeman 1669. He married 11 October 1671, Prudence Leaver, daughter of Thomas Leaver, and he lived not long, for his widow married 6 April 1674, Samuel Stickney.

JOHN GAGE, Boston. He came probably in the fleet with Winthrop being in the first half hundred members of the church, was of County Suffolk, England. He removed to Ipswich 1633, among the first settlers, and was freeman 4 March 1634. He had Benjamin, Daniel, Jonathan, Samuel, and probably Thomas. His wife Ann died June 1658. He married November 1658, Sarah Keyes, daughter of Robert Keyes, I believe, who survived him. He removed 1664 to Rowley. But Coffin says widow Sarah died at Newbury, 7 July 1680.

SAMUEL GAGE, Haverhill, son of the preceding freeman 1671. He married 10 June 1674, Faith Stickney, daughter of William Stickney.

THOMAS GAGE, Beverly, brother of Samuel Gage. By wife Sarah, had Thomas, born 1678; William, 1680; besides four daughters all at Beverly. But after his wife died he removed to Rowley and married second wife Elizabeth Northend, widow of Humphrey Hobson, daughter of Ezekiel Northend, had Elizabeth, born 1698. He is ancestor by the former wife I presume, of most of the families in Rowley of this name, six of who had been, in 1829, graduates at the New England Colleges.

JOHN GAGER, New London. He came probably with his father Deacon William Gager, to Boston, 1630, and may have been at Hampton 1640. He perhaps accompanied young John Winthrop, when he went to plant the Pequot conquest, about 1645. He had wife Elizabeth named in his will, yet she may not have been mother of the children, either six born before removing, or three after he went, 1660, to Norwich; John, September 1647; Elizabeth, 1649; Sarah, 1651; Hannah, 1653, died young; Samuel, 1654; Bethia, 1637; William, 1662, died young; Lydia, 1663; Hannah, again, 1666; and Mary, 1671. He was freeman 1675, constable of Norwich 1681, and died 10 December 1703. His eldest son died before and the will mentioned only son Samuel, and "my six sons that married my daughters" John Allyn, husband of Elizabeth, Daniel Brewster, Jeremiah Ripley, Simon Huntington, Joshua Abel, and Caleb Forbes. But this order does not relate to the priority of the daughters nor can I appropriate the daughters to their husbands except the eldest of them, after long inquiry. A descendant of sixth generation was town clerk 1845. Caulkins, History 103.

WILLIAM GAGER, Charlestown, a surgeon. He came in the fleet with Winthrop, was by him reckoned of his family a Suffolk man, made Deacon of the First Church now of Boston, and died 20 September 1630. Reverend William Gager, a descendant Yale College 1721, was ordained 27 May 1725 at Second Church of Lebanon.

DANIEL GAINES, or DANIEL GAYNES, Lancaster 1660. He was killed by the Indians 10 February 1676. Willard, History

HENRY GAINES, or HENRY GAYNES, Lynn, freeman 14 December 1639. He may have had wife Jane.

SAMUEL GAINES, or SAMUEL GAYNES, Lynn. He married 7 April 1665, Ann Wright. He was of Hartford 1667, removed to Haddam, had a family, and there the name is still found. One, perhaps this progenitor died 1700, at Glastonbury.

THOMAS GAINES, or THOMAS GAYNES, Lynn 1640, may have been father of the preceding.

ABRAHAM GALE, Watertown, son of Richard Gale. He married 3 September 1673, Sarah Fiske, daughter of Nathan Fiske, had Abraham; Sarah, born 15 February 1675, died young; Richard, 25 September 1677; Hopestill, December 1678, died soon; Mary, 27 March 1680, died young; Abigail, 12 March 1682, died at 14 years; Mercy, 16 September 1683; Ebenezer, 30 April 1686; John, 23 April 1687; Mary, again, baptized April 1689; Sarah, again, born 29 August 1694; Jonas, baptized 14 November 1697; Joshua, born 22 February 1697; Elizabeth and Lydia, twins 9 July 1699; and Abigail; died 1718.

AMBROSE GALE, Salem. He had there baptized Benjamin; Elizabeth, 17 May 1663; Charity, 17 June 1664; and Ambrose, 1665. He was one of the founders of the church at Marblehead, and lived there 1674. Elizabeth married Thomas Root of Boston.

BARTHOLOMEW GALE, Salem. He married 25 July 1662, Martha Lemon, daughter of Robert Lemon, who died the same year. He married Mary Bacon, had Abraham, born 18 November 1666; Isaac, 2 July 1669; Jacob, 15 August 1671; Bartholomew, 26 April 1674; Daniel and Mary twins 17 August 1676; and perhaps more.

DANIEL GALE, Salem. He married Rebecca Swett, daughter of Stephen Swett of Newbury.

EDMUND GALE, Salisbury, freeman 1666, removed perhaps to Marblehead, and next to Falmouth before 1689.

JOHN GALE, Boston 1634, in record of his administration to the church said to be in employment of John Button. He died soon.

JOHN GALE, Watertown, son of Richard Gale. He married 27 September 1677, Elizabeth Spring, daughter of Henry Spring, had Elizabeth, born 1 June 1678; John, 5 April 1680, died at 18 years; Sarah, 12 December 1681; Abigail; Hannah; both baptized 19 June 1687; and Abia, 14 July 1689.

RICHARD GALE, Watertown 1640. He married Mary Castle, had Sarah, born 8 September 1641; Abraham; Mary; John, both sons before mentioned, perhaps Abigail; and Ephraim. Sarah married 3 April 1663, Joseph Garfield; and Mary married 30 March 1670, John Flagg. Twelve of this name had in 1834 been graduates at the various New England Colleges.

AMBROSE GALL, perhaps of Charlestown. He married as is said, Mary Ward, daughter of Samuel Ward, in early days. But in my opinion the surname is error for Gale, and for

ELISHA GALLISON, Falmouth 1689, had a garrison house but Willis, I. 200, calls him Elihu Gullison. See Genealogical Registrar III. 25. Possibly he was son of Hugh Gunnison.

BEN ADAM GALLOP, or BEN ADAM GALLUP, Boston, son of John Gallop the second. He married Esther Prentice, daughter of John Prentice of New London, had Hannah, born 22 May 1683; Esther, 1 November 1685; Mary, August 1687; Benadam, 18 April 1693; Joseph, 27 September 1695; Margaret, 11 May 1698; and Lucy, 12 July 1701. Most, or all of these, were born at Stonington. With other volunteers from Boston, he went to the Vineyard sound, where, though their own master was mortally wounded in the fight, they took and brought to Boston a pirate sloop, in October 1689. He died 2 August 1727, and his widow died 18 August 1751.

HUMPHREY GALLOP, or HUMPHREY GALLUP, Dorchester 1630. He came probably in the Mary and John. By wife Ann, had Joseph, born 1633.

JOHN GALLOP, or JOHN GALLUP, Dorchester 1630, perhaps brother of the preceding, removed soon to Long island, part of Boston, 1632, was a fisherman and pilot, and probably lived alternately down the harbor and up in town, where house and garden he had, as in the book of possessions. Joined to the church 6 January 1634, freeman 1 April 1634. He brought wife Christobel, who lived to summer of 1655, and children John, Samuel, Nathaniel, and Joan, who married Thomas Joy. He died January 1650. His will of 20 December 1649, probated 9 February 1650 provides for all these, and gives £2 to new meeting-house, then building. The will of his widow is to be seen in Genealogical Registrar V. 444, made 24 July 1655, probated 31 October 1655. He seems, by his conduct in punishing murderers of John Oldham, to have been very brave, and he left brave descendants.

JOHN GALLOP, or JOHN GALLUP, Boston 1637, served in the Pequot war, for which Connecticut made him a grant of 100 acres. He married Hannah Lake, daughter of Margaret Lake, a widow who resided at John Winthrop's, had Hannah, born 14 August 1644. He removed to New London 1651, was son of the preceding, born in England, probably was of Taunton 1643, a short time. He removed to Stonington, of which he was Representative October 1665 and May 1667. He had John, who became freeman 1673; Benadam, born about 1656; William, 1638; Christobel; Elizabeth; Mary; and Margaret; besides Esther, born 21 July 1653, who married 17 December 1674, Henry Hodges of Taunton; and Samuel, who died probably unmarried. He was one of the six Captains killed in the great Narraganset swamp fight, 19 December 1673, the hardest battle of Philip's war, when 80 were killed and 150 wounded of which many died before relief could be had. His company had many killed and wounded. Hannah married as his second wife 1672, Stephen Gifford; Christobel married December 1677, Peter Crary; Elizabeth married Henry Stephens; and Mary married John Cole of Boston. In 1704, Margaret was unmarried.

JOHN GALLOP, or JOHN GALLUP, Stonington, eldest son of the preceding. He married Elizabeth Wheeler, daughter of Thomas Wheeler of the same, had John, and Thomas, both baptized 30 April 1682; Elizabeth, 31 May 1685; Samuel, 9 October 1687; Elizabeth again, 14 July 1689; Nathaniel, 3 July 1692; William, 26 May 1695; and Benjamin, 1 November 1696. He was Representative 1685.

JOSEPH GALLOP, or JOSEPH GALLUP, Dorchester, son of Humphrey Gallop, was of Turner's company in Philip's war.

NATHANIEL GALLOP, or NATHANIEL GALLUP, Boston, son of John Gallop the first, born in England. He married 11 June 1652, Margaret Eveley, who in 1677, after his death joined with Samuel's widow in sale of the island estate of their father. His will, of 7 March 1676, named son Benjamin, and daughter Susanna, wife of John Butler.

SAMUEL GALLOP, or SAMUEL GALLUP, Boston, brother of the preceding, born in England. He married 20 January 1651, Mary Phillips, had Mary, born 4 February 1652; Hannah, 3 September 1654; Samuel, 14 February 1657; Mehitable, 5 April 1659. He was freeman 1664; perhaps was of Turner's company in Philip's war, or may, more probably have sent his son of same name. He died before 1677.

SAMUEL GALLOP, or SAMUEL GALLUP, son of the preceding, was probably a soldier in Turner's company in Philip's war, and certainly a Captain 1690, in the wild and sad expedition of Sir William Phips against Quebec, French. Which I know not that he returned alive. He and his wife were of the church at Bristol in February 1689.

WILLIAM GALLOP, or WILLIAM GALLUP, Stonington, son of John Gallop first of the same. He married 4 January 1688, Sarah Chesebrough, had Mary, baptized 7 April 1695; Hannah, 24 April 1698; Temperance, 25 May 1701; and Sarah; perhaps others earlier.

JOHN GALLY, Salem 1637, had then grant of land, perhaps lived on Beverly side, where John, probably his son was freeman 1670. His widow Florence died 1686, in 80th year. His daughter Elizabeth married Osmund Trask, bore him five sons, and next married John Giles, about 1679, bore him one son, two daughters.

BENJAMIN GALPIN, Woodbury, perhaps son of Philip Galpin. By wife Rebecca, had Elizabeth, baptized March 1683; Martha, April 1685; Benjamin, May 1687, died at 17 years; Rebecca, November 1689; Joseph, April 1693; Sarah, February 1697; Rachel, September 1699; Samuel, born 6 April 1703; and Thankful, 18 October 1706. He died 1731, and his widow died 1745.

PHILIP GALPIN, New Haven. He married Elizabeth Smith, had Samuel, born 17 July 1650; and Joseph, 17 June 1652. He removed to Fairfield 1657, thence to Rye.

SAMUEL GALPIN, Stratford 1685, son probably of the preceding. He married 22 March 1677, Esther Thompson, daughter of John Thompson of the same, had Esther, 1678, who with the mother died soon.

WILLIAM GALSEY, Marblehead 1633, fisherman. This may be the same name as following.

WILLIAM GALT, Salem. He died before 1669, says Essex Institute II. 96; but as the name never appears in other place, I have doubt of the spelling.

DANIEL GALUSHA, Chelmsford 1691, or earlier. He removed to Dunstable. He had Rachel and Daniel; said to be of Dutch. Originally his house was a garrison, burned by the Indians 1706, when Rachel was killed. Belknap I. 173.

BENJAMIN GAMLYN, BENJAMIN GAMLYNE, BENJAMIN GAMLIN, BENJAMIN GAMLIEN, or BENJAMIN GAMBLIN, Roxbury, son of Robert Gamlyn, second of that name. He married 11 February 1678, Obedience Holland, widow of Philip Curtis, daughter of John Holland of Dorchester, had Hannah, born 2 Oct 1678; Benjamin, 28 September 1680, died soon; Benjamin Gamlyn, again, 20 October 1681, baptized (with sister Hannah) on 26 August 1688, Harvard College 1702, who was counselor of New Hampshire 1732-37, and preferred to spell his name Gambling; Robert, 16 December 1684, died in two weeks; and Obedience, 31 July 1687, died in few days. He was freeman 1690, but perhaps removed, for death of neither husband nor wife is found on record.

ROBERT GAMLYN, ROBERT GAMLYNE, ROBERT GAMLIN, ROBERT GAMLIEN, or ROBERT GAMBLIN, Concord. He came when and how is beyond conjecture unless it were with Robert Gamlyn junior. He was made freeman 14 May 1634. He probably then lived at Roxbury, where his daughter Mary, who had been domesticated in Pynchon's family, died of small pox 1633. He was buried at Concord 7 September 1642, but why he went thither, or if he had any family or not, we are ignorant.

ROBERT GAMLYN, ROBERT GAMLYNE, ROBERT GAMLIN, ROBERT GAMLIEN, or ROBERT GAMBLIN, Roxbury, called junior, probably father of the preceding. He came in the William and Francis, early in 1632, with Reverend Thomas Welde, bringing wife Elizabeth and her children John Mayo, By former husband, had Elizabeth, born 24 June 1634; Joseph, 8 March says the town record but that of the church has 16 December 1636, buried 30 November 1653; Benjamin, before mentioned, 20 August 1639; and Mary, 6 March 1641, who married 27 May 1663, Thomas Baker. He was freeman 3 September 1634. His will of 3 August 1663, probated 28 January 1664 calls himself "late of Roxbury" but mentioned no other place, and speaks of lands and houses in Roxbury. He names wife Elizabeth, child Benjamin, and son-in-law Isaac Genery. The widow died 1681.

PHILIP GAMMON, Casco, fisherman. He married before 1690, Mary Parrott, eldest daughter of John Parrott. In 1734 he was of Portsmouth. Willis I. 210, 213.

JOSEPH GANNETT, Scituate, son of Matthew Gannett the first. He married 17 January 1677, Ruth Buck, daughter of Isaac Buck, as Genealogical Registrar IX. 316, gives the name, but the transcription was wrong, as was known by the facts in Deane, supported by Colony record of which I have inspected the original proving that the marriage of Buck's daughter was with Joseph Garrett (not Gannett). This man married widow Sharpe, had Hannah, born 1684; Joseph, 1686; Matthew, 1688; Deborah, 1690; and Joseph, again, 1693. The father died before his father who in his will provides for one these two grandsons by estate at Bridgewater.

MATTHEW GANNETT, Scituate 1651, but had, says Deane, been first at Hingham. He had sons Matthew, Joseph, before mentioned, and Rehoboth, and as named in his will of 1694, Hannah Adams; Abigail, wife of Jonathan Dodson; and Elizabeth Leavitt; besides granddaughter Esther Palmer. He died 1695, in 77th year. Sometimes the name looks in old engrossed hand like Garrett. Rehoboth went to New Jersey, died without children.

MATTHEW GANNETT, Scituate 1675, son of the preceding. He had Matthew and Joseph.

RICHARD GANNETT, Scituate, able to bear arms 1643, of which no more is heard.

THOMAS GANNETT, Duxbury 1642, brother of Matthew Gannett the first. He removed to Bridgewater 1645, and died 1655, leaving widow Sarah. By will of 19 June 1655, gave part of his lands to brother. Six of this name had been graduates at Harvard in 1820.

BENJAMIN GANSON, Salem. By wife Elizabeth, had Elizabeth, born 19 February 1670; and Benjamin, 7 July 1671. As this seems very rare name, perhaps it may be variant for Jansen.

DANIEL GAPPAD, if this be not an impossible name, is by Porter called one of the first settlers though not original proprietor of Hartford, 1636. Hinman has, 29, Garwood, Daniel, as of Hartford, 1639; and greater variation than this is made by practiced eyes in reading some old MS. Perhaps the name is Garrett. Daniel is so very rare a name of baptism in our early days, that it may lead to true surname.

JOHN GARDE, JOHN GARD, or JOHN GARRARD, Warwick 16~5. He removed to New London 1667, perhaps was the man, "old John Gard," in 1712. His son Daniel charged with misdemeanor.

ROGER GARDE, ROGER GARD, or ROGER GARRARD, York, recorder of the Province 1640, at the first Assembly under Sir father Gorges' commissioner, Mayor of Acomenticus 1644. He had no wife in the country, which exposed him to suspicion. Winthrop II. 210.

MILES GARDEN, a soldier in Gallop's company in the expedition of Phips, 1690, to conquer Quebec, which was aborted.

BENONI GARDINER, Wickford, Rhode Island, 1674. He is by Updike in History of the Narraganset church called son of Joseph Gardiner, the emigrant and father of William Gardiner.

CHRISTOPHER GARDINER, a knight of some holy order. He came probably in the Lion 1630, from Bristol, for Dudley says, it was "a month before us" living at or near Mount Wollaston, about seven miles from Boston, with Morton, the mischief-maker, less than two years, was sent home by our officers. Of him and Mary Grove, who accompanied him, while he had two wives in England, enough may be read in Dudley, as reprinted in Young's Chronicles of Massachusetts and in 3 Massachusetts History Collections VIII. 320.

DAVID GARDINER, Gardiner's first son of Lyon, went to London for education. Married 4 June 1637, Mary Lungman, a daughter of St. Margaret's, Westminster, had John, born 19 April 1661; David; Elizabeth; and Lyon; each of who became head of family. He died very suddenly at Hartford, whither he went on business, and a monument to his memory bears this inscription there: "Here lyeth the body of Mr. David Gardiner, of Gardiner's Island, deceased 10 July 1689 in 54th year of his age. Well, sick, dead in one hour’s space. Engrave the remembrance of death on thine heart; when, against thou dost see, how swiftly hours depart."

JOSEPH GARDINER, Wickford, is said to be the founder of a family of distinction and called one of the first settlers of Narraganset. He was father of Benoni Gardiner, before mentioned whose eldest son William Gardiner, born 1671, died 14 December 1732. The fourth son of William Gardiner was Sylvester Gardiner, an eminent physician of Boston, born at Kingstown, 1707.

LYON GARDINER, or LION GARDINER, as he wrote it, Saybrook 1635, came in the Bachilor of only 25 tons, aged 36, with wife Mary, 34; and a female servant Elizabeth Colet, 23, and eleven male passengers. One only however named in the custom-house record embarked 11 August at London, arriving at Boston 28 November 1635. His wife was daughter of Dericke Willamson of Worden in Holland, in the service of whose prince he had before been engaged and he came away for London, 10 July 1635. He had David, born 29 April 1636; Mary, 30 August 1638; both at Saybrook fort; and Elizabeth, 14 September 1641, on the Island purchased of the Indians that has ever since borne his name, but by him called Isle of Wight, and she was the first English child born there. He was a man of very great energy and discretion, as fully was shown in the Pequot war. Of that he wrote a Relation, less exact, indeed, than entertaining but worth perusal, printed after 200 years repose, in 3 Massachusetts History Collections III. 131. He lived at Easthampton longer than at Saybrook; had early acquired the admirable estate off the east end of Long Island (still enjoyed by descendant of the ninth generation) called Gardine Island in Gardiner's Bay. He probably lived after 1642 on Long Island, and died late in 1663. His widow lived about two years and her will is recorded at New York. His will of 1658 names the two first born and the grandchild Elizabeth, daughter of Elizabeth, as does also that of the mother Mary married Jeremiah Concklin, and died at Easthampton, Long Island 15 June 1727. Elizabeth married Arthur Howell of Easthampton, had Elizabeth, and died soon after in February 1658. Of course her marriage was before she was sixteen years old. Perhaps his name of baptism was Lionel, in old time’s common enough but I have never met the conjecture and Lion is a more appropriate designation for the lion-hearted.

RICHARD GARDINER, Plymouth 1620, one of the passengers of the Mayflower. He was living late in 1624, but though he partook of the division of lands early in that year he had no share in the division of cattle, 1627. No more is known of him, but what Bradford tells, that he became a mariner, and died away, and he had no wife.

ANDREW GARDNER, Roxbury, or rather Brookline, son of second Thomas Gardner of the same. He married 20 May 1668, Sarah Mason, daughter of Hugh Mason, had Andrew Gardner, born 1674, Harvard College 1696, the preacher at Lancaster, casually killed by a soldier, 1704; and probably others, certainly Thomas, 9 December 1684. He lived at Muddy river, was Captain, a Representative 1689, and was lost in the expedition of Sir William Phips against Quebec next year.

BENJAMIN GARDNER, Hingham, youngest son of John Gardner the first of the same. He married 3 January 1696, Sarah Dunbar, probably daughter of Robert Dunbar of the same, had Sarah, born 19 June 1698; Benjamin, 15 May 1700; and Hannah, 2 November 1703. All this family are frequently spelled Garnett.

EBENEZER GARDNER, Salem 1682, son of George Gardner, had wife Sarah, who died 5 September 1682, aged about 23. He died 1685, without child. His will made in February 1685 disposes, besides £50 to "poor honest people of Salem" to brother Henry Bartholomew; sister Swinnerton; sister Willoughby; sister Pilgrim deceased, sister Hathorne, and three children John, Nathaniel, and Ruth; sister Mary Turner, and her three children Robert, Habaccuk, and Mercy; brother Samuel Gardner and his three children George, John, and Hannah; Susanna, daughter of uncle Thomas Gardner; Margaret, daughter of uncle Samuel Gardner; and to George Gardner, son of one of these uncles, probably of Thomas Gardner.

EDWARD GARDNER, who came in the James from London 1635, aged 25, may have been the same as preceding.

FRANCIS GARDNER, Hingham, a soldier in Captain Johnson's company at the great Narraganset fight, 19 December 1675, was second son of John Gardner of the same. He married 14 January 1681, Joanna May, daughter perhaps of Samuel May of Roxbury, had Samuel, born 14 August 1684. He died 14 January 1689. His widow married 26 January 1690, Thomas Whiton, bore him seven children, and next married 23 March 1711, Nathan Farrow for third husband.

GEORGE GARDNER, Salem 1637, son of first Thomas Gardner, born in England, freeman 27 December 1642. He had children by wife Elizabeth baptized there: Hannah, 5 December 1644; Samuel, 14 May 1648; Mary, 10 July 1653; Bethia, born 3 June 1654; Ebenezer, born 16 August 1657; and Ruth, both baptized 2 April 1665 (in 1658 his wife was indicted for favoring Quakers, and was, perhaps, dead before the baptism of these two); and Mehitable born 23 April 1659, died next month un-baptized, besides George, who died 21 August 1662. He removed to Hartford. He married Elizabeth Stone, daughter of Reverend Samuel Stone, and he died 20 August 1679. His will of 21 July 1679 gave large property to sons Samuel and Ebenezer, daughters Hannah, wife of John Buttolph; Mary, wife of Turner, and Ruth, wife of Hawthorne, and names brother sons Thomas, and Samuel Gardner and sister Grafton.

GEORGE GARDNER, and HENRY GARDNER, were of Wickford, Rhode Island 1674. George Gardner, possibly their father was of Rhode Island 1638.

GEORGE GARDNER, Nantucket, son of the first John Gardner of the same. He married Eunice Starbuck, of Nathaniel Starbuck.

HENRY GARDNER, Woburn, son of Richard Gardner of the same, had by wife Elizabeth Lane, who died 3 June 1703, aged 43, John Gardner, born 22 July 1695, Harvard College 1715. He had second wife Hannah, and he died 20 February 1714.

JACOB GARDNER, Hatfield. By wife Hannah, had Jacob, born 1676. He removed soon after he took oath of allegiance 8 February 1679.

JAMES GARDNER, Gloucester. He married 19 January 1662, as Felt copies the record (though Babson has 16 June 1661) Elizabeth Vinson, daughter of William Vinson, or William Vincent, had Sarah, born 16 April 1662, died soon; James, 5 October 1663, died same day; George, 22 March 1665, died same day; Elizabeth, 3 June 1666; Sarah, again, 17 January 1669; Mary, 13 September 1671, died next month; Joseph, 23 October 1672; Rebecca, 15 September 1675; John, 11 June 1678; and James, again, August 1681.

JAMES GARDNER, Hingham, brother of Francis Gardner. He married 18 June 1685, Elizabeth Ward, daughter of Henry Ward, and had Henry, born 11 May 1688; Joseph, 8 November 1689; Elizabeth 25 September 1693; and Nathaniel, 26 July 1701.

JAMES GARDNER, Nantucket, son of Richard Gardner the first, who had removed thither from Salem. He married Mary Starbuck, daughter of Nathaniel Starbuck, who was said to be the first white child born on that Island 30 March 1663, had Samuel; Jethro; Barnabas, born 12 April 1695; Jonathan, 12 September 1696; Elizabeth, and Mehitable. By second wife Patience Folger, daughter of Peter Folger, widow of Ebenezer Harker, he had no children. He took third wife Rachel Gardner, widow of John Brown of Salem, daughter of John Gardner, his father's brother, and had James. By fourth wife Mary Coffin, widow of Richard, and daughter of James Coffin, had no children. He died 1 June 1723, and his widow died 2 March 1741.

JOHN GARDNER, Salem 1643, son of the first Thomas Gardner of the same, born probably in England. He married 20 February 1654, Priscilla Grafton, eldest child of the first Joseph Grafton, had John, born 20 February 1654, so that I doubt the day of marriage was earlier, Joseph, 8 July 1655; Priscilla, 6 November 1656, who had married probably at Salem, but after being a widow followed her father to Nantucket; Benjamin, 3 February 1658, died young; George; Rachel, 3 August 1662, who married as is said, John Brown, and next, James Gardner, her cousin; Benjamin, again, 17 May 1664; Ann, 30 February 1667, who married Edward Coffin; Nathaniel, 24 September 1668; and Mary, 27 May 1670, who married Jethro Coffin. He soon after removed to Nantucket, there had Mehitable, born 24 November 1674, who married Ambrose Dawes the second; and Ruth, 26 January 1677, who married the second James Coffin. He had been commissioner from Lovelace, Governor of New York several times, first, 1673, to be Captain of military, and 1680, a civilian Magistrate. As his elder brother Richard Gardner had before him, and when the Island passed by the new Charter into Massachusetts jurisdiction he was, 1699, made Judge of Probate to his death 6 May 1706, aged 82. His will was of 2 December 1705 of which the wife was made executrix, and after her death, son George. He was the only son living to be named in it, but six daughters and three grandsons find provision there. See Genealogical Registrar XV. 147.

JOHN GARDNER, Hingham. By wife Mary, had John, baptized 18 July 1652; Francis, 3 April 1653; Mary, 19 November 1654; Samuel, 23 March 1656; Deborah, 5 July 1657; James, perhaps, 5 February 1660; Stephen, 14 September 1662; Thomas, 6 June 1664, Benjamin, perhaps, 8 April 1666; and Christian, born 3 June (in church record called son), baptized 14 June 1668. The father died 24 November 1668, and his widow married 18 June 1669 Nathaniel Chubbuck. At Hingham he had grants of lands In 1656; but may have been the Duxbury inhabitant of 1640.

JOHN GARDNER, Hadley 1678, perhaps son of Samuel Gardner of the same, freeman 1683.

JOHN GARDNER, Hingham, eldest son of John Gardner of the same. He married 25 February 1681, Mary Stowell, daughter of Samuel Stowell of the same, had John, born 4 January 1684; Mary, 3 August 1686; Ruth, 12 February 1689; Elizabeth, 24 October 1691; Hannah, 12 May 1694; and Remember, 25 September 1697.

JOHN GARDNER, Salem, a prominent man, Representative 1716, 1719-21, in which last year he died leaving one tenth of his estate to the poor.

JOSEPH GARDNER, Salem 1649, son of the first Thomas Gardner, freeman 1672. He had married August 1656, Ann Downing, daughter of Emanuel Downing. He was the brave Captain killed with five others of same rank, and eight of his company alone, in the great battle of Philip's war, at the Narraganset swamp, 19 December 1675. He left no children, and his widow married Simon Bradstreet, soon after Governor.

He married 30 March 1670, Bethia Macy, daughter of Thomas Macy, had Sarah, born 23 October 1672; Damaris, 16 February 1675; Bethia, 13 August 1676; Deborah, 30 March 1681; and Hope, 7 January 1684; besides Mary, who married 1706, Matthew Jenkins.

JOSEPH GARDNER, Hadfield, perhaps brother of Jacob Gardner of the same. By wife Mary, had Mehitable, born 20 May 1679, soon after which he removed. Perhaps he and Jacob were uncles or cousins of Abigail, who married at Hadfield the Reverend John Wise, who declined the invitation to became the minister there, and after residing of more than a year left the town; for both these went also, and it may be, they, or one of them, had been drawn thither by him.

JOSHUA GARDNER, Roxbury, son of second Thomas Gardner of the same. He married 1680, Mary Weld, daughter of John Weld of the same, had Joshua, born 22 October 1682, died same day; Margaret, 7 October 1683; Francis, 3 February 1686; and probably Joshua Gardner, again, Harvard College 1707.

He married Abigail Coffin, daughter of James Coffin, had Hannah, born 6 July 1686; Ebenezer, 27 October 1688; Peleg, 22 July 1691; Judith, 28 October 1693; Margaret, 28 January 1696; Nathaniel, 14 December 1697; Andrew, 26 December 1699; Abel, 6 August 1702; and Susanna, 4 August 1706. His wife died 15 March 1709, and he died in England.

NICHOLAS GARDNER, Wickford, Rhode Island, 1674. He was perhaps brother of Benjamin, George, Henry, or some one of them.

PETER GARDNER, Roxbury, probably brother of second Thomas Gardner, born about 1617, embarked in April 1635, on the Elizabeth, at London. He married 27 May 1646, Rebecca Crooke, daughter of Roger Crooke of Hammersmith, near London, deceased, had Rebecca, born 9 November 1647; Peter, 24 January 1649; both baptized 24 March 1650; Thomas, 1, baptized 23 May 1652, died at 15 months; Sarah, 10, baptized 29 January 1654, died at six years; John, 7, baptized 30 December 1655; Samuel, 3, baptized 8 March 1657, killed by the Indians 2 April 1676; Joseph, 11, baptized 16 January 1659; Sarah, again, 20 April baptized 8 June 1662; Benjamin, 23 April baptized 22 May 1664; Ebenezer, 5 August baptized 10 September 1667 died 13 November 1683; and Jonathan, 14 August baptized 1 September 1667. He was freeman 1690. Peter, the younger, died 30 October 1673. His mother died 10 June 1675, aged 45. The father died 5 November 1698. Sarah married 31 May 1683, John Gore.

RICHARD GARDNER, Salem 1643, son perhaps of first Thomas Gardner, lived there 1666, went next year to Nantucket. Before removing he by wife Sarah Shattuck, probably daughter of Samuel Shattuck, had Joseph; Sarah; Richard, born 23 October 1653; Deborah, 12 December 1658; Damaris, 21 November 1662; and James, 19 May 1664; besides Miriam; Nathaniel, 16 November 1669; Hope; and Love, 2 May 1672. Of the last daughter I see no more, but hear that she was first wife of James Coffin the second of Nantucket, and early died without issue. But Sarah married Eleazer Folger; Deborah married John Macy, and next Stephen Pease; Miriam married John Worth; and Hope married John Coffin. The father died 23 January 1689. His widow Sarah died 1724, aged above 92 years.

RICHARD GARDNER, Woburn. He married 18 October 1651, Ann Blanchard or Hannah Blanchard, daughter of Thomas Blanchard of Charlestown, had John, born 14 August 1652; Ann, 17 January 1655; Benjamin, 26 December 1656; Henry, 12 February 1658, before mentioned; Esther, 15 October 1669; Ruth, 1 April 1661; Hannah; Abigail; Rebecca; and Mehitable; these four probably at Charlestown. He was freeman 1662. He died early in 1698; but the gravestone says 29 May 1698. His will of 16 March 1697, probated 6 May 1698, shows he then lived at Charlestown. It names only son Henry, and six daughters: Esther married Edward Johnson, son of Honorable William Johnson, and grandson of Captain Edward Johnson, (the History of Wonder Work. Provid.); Ruth married John Jepson; Hannah married John Coddington, half brother of Jepson Coddington; Abigail married 13 April 1687, Joseph Thompson; and Rebecca and Mehitable married men unknown to me.

RICHARD GARDNER, Nantucket, son of the first Richard Gardner of the same. He married 17 May 1674, Mary Austin, had Patience 29 June 1675; Joseph, 8 May 1677; Solomon, 1 July 1680; Benjamin, 20 July 1683; Miriam, 14 July 1685; and Lydia, 16 June 1687, died young. He was Judge of Probate, and died 8 May 1728. His wife died 1 June 1721.

SAMUEL GARDNER, Salem 1657, was son I presume of first Thomas Gardner, born in this country, about 1629. He had wife Mary White, and children: Mary, born 5 August 1658, died under 4 years; Elizabeth, 30 May 1660, died at 18 years; Mary, again, 29 June 1662, who married Joseph Henfield; Margaret, 14 July 1664, who married Deliverance Parkman, and died 25 March 1689; Samuel, 9 June 1666; George, 15 or 28 January 1668, died at 8 months; Jonathan, 18 July 1669; Hannah, 16 April 1671; and Abel, 1 September 1673. He was freeman 1675, selectman 1686, Representative 1681, 82, and 85. His wife died 12 September 1675, and he died October 1689, having made his will on second, 2 October 1689, leaving only youngest three children.

SAMUEL GARDNER, Hartford, or Wethersfield 1641. He removed to Hadley 1663, there lived 1678. He had Samuel, who died 1676, unmarried, and Joseph, who died 1684, leaving widow but no children. He had also five daughters who married but the male line failed.

SAMUEL GARDNER, Roxbury, a soldier in brave Captain Johnson's company at the great battle, 19 December 1675, was a Lieutenant. He was killed at Sudbury fight under Wadsworth, with eight of his company April 1676.

SAMUEL GARDNER, Salem, son of Lieutenant George. He married 24 April 1673, Elizabeth daughter of second Joseph Grafton, had George, born 28 January 1674, who died the same year, and Hannah, 4 April 1676;

SAMUEL GARDNER, Plymouth. He married 20 December 1682, Susanna Shelley, had Samuel, born 27 September 1683.

By wife Sarah, had Deborah, born 9 October 1689; Sarah, 31 July 1691; Stephen, 6 February 1693; Lydia, 22 January 1695; David, 26 August 1697; Abigail, 12 January 1699; Stephen, again, 29 December 1700; Patience, 3 September 1703; and Joshua, 25 December 1705, who probably died young.

THOMAS GARDNER, Salem, was first at Cape Ann, employed by the project of settlers to oversee fishery, 1624 or 25, and removed with Conant, freeman 17 May 1637, and Representative same year. It is said, on what grounds I know not, that he was from Scotland; but to me it seems much more likely, that he was from Sherborne in northern part of County Dorset. Ten other children he had, by his first wife Margaret Fryer, besides Seeth, baptized 25 December 1636 (who married I believe, the second Joseph Grafton); as, Thomas, Richard, George, John, Samuel, Joseph, Sarah, Elizabeth, Bethia, and Miriam, for some of which the probably is stronger than for others. Only six sons with three daughters are named in his will of 7 December 1668. Sarah was wife of Benjamin Balch, it is thought; and Miriam of a Hill; and Margaret, who was recorded of the church 1689, may have been his wife. He had second wife Damaris Shattuck, a widow from England who died 28 November 1674, and he died 29 December 1674.

THOMAS GARDNER, Roxbury. He died November 1638. And "our aged sister Gardner" says the church record, was buried 7 October 1658, who I presume, was his widow, but the town record does not mention the occurrence of her death.

THOMAS GARDNER, Salem, merchant eldest son of Thomas Gardner of the same, born no doubt in England, recorded of the church 1639, freeman 2 June 1641, and a selectman. He died 1684. Hannah, probably his wife is, by Felt, inserted among church members of 1649 baptized. Of his children were Mary, 2 April 1643; Thomas, 25 May 1645, who died 1695; Elizabeth, 22 April 1649 ; Abigail, 20 April 1651; Bethia, 26 March 1654 ; Hannah, 24 January 1658; and Jonathan, 12 October 1662. Perhaps Mr. Farmer had, from Felt, names of several other children but some, I believe, were brothers and sisters of his.

THOMAS GARDNER, Roxbury, son probably of Thomas Gardner of the same, born in England. He married 4 July 1641, if the record be distinct, Lucy Smith, had Andrew, born 5 March 1642, before mentioned; Thomas, 1645, a wrong month being given in the record; Abigail, baptized 15 February 1646, died August 1649; Mary, baptized 9 April 1648; Peter, 8 December (though town record has September) 1650, and he died 24 August 1653; Abigail, again, born 6, baptized 26 December 1602; Lucy, 11 February 1655; Joanna, 25 January 1657; Joshua, 8 May 1659; and Caleb, 13 April 1662, died at 19 years. Neither of the last five is named by Ellis, nor are the last three found in town records. Perhaps, as his residence was in that part of Boston, called Muddy River, the clerk did not think he was of Roxbury. He was freeman 1646. His wife died 4 November 1687, and he died 15 July 1689. In his will, made three days before provides for Thomas and Joshua; besides daughters Mary, who married 13 December 1665, Thomas Boylston; Abigail, wife of Reverend John Wise; Joanna Stanton; and Lucy Monk.

THOMAS GARDNER, Salem, son of the second Thomas Gardner of the same. He married 22 April 1669, Mary Porter, daughter of Jonathan Porter, had Mary, born 14 February 1670; Thomas, 25 October 1671; Habakkuk, 25 February or October 1674; Joseph, 29 August 1677; and a daughter 22 July 1679.

THOMAS GARDNER, Roxbury, son of the second Thomas Gardner of the same. He married 19 November 1673, Mary Bowles, daughter of Elder John Bowles, had Sarah, born 15 March 1675; Thomas, 18 April 1676; Mary, 11 March 1679; John, 9 January 1680; Caleb, 23 April 1682; Peter, 22 July 1684; and Isaac, 18 August 1686.

THOMAS GARDNER, Hingham, sixth son of John Gardner the first of the same. He married 17 December 1705, Judith Tower; but no record of children is seen. Thirty of this name had, in 1829, been graduates at Harvard and five at the other New England Colleges.

BENJAMIN GARFIELD, Watertown, son of Edward Garfield second of the same, freeman 1690, was Representative 1689 and 92. By first wife Mehitable Hawkins, daughter of Timothy Hawkins, he had Benjamin, born 8 May 1674; and Benoni, 4 December 1675. His wife died five days after (9 December 1675). He married 17 January 1677, second wife Elizabeth Bridge, had Elizabeth, born 30 June 1679; Thomas, 12 December 1680; Ann, 2 June 1683; Abigail, 13 July 1685; Mehitable, 7 December 1687; Samuel, 3 September 1690; and Mary, 2 October 1695. He died 28 November 1717. His widow married 25 October 1720, Daniel Harrington.

EDWARD GARFIELD, Watertown. He died 14 June 1672, if Bond be correct, aged 97.

EDWARD GARFIELD, Watertown, son of the preceding, born in England, and freeman 6 May 1635. By wife Rebecca, had Samuel; Joseph, born 11 September 1637; Rebecca, 10 or 18 March 1641; Benjamin, 1643; and Abigail, 29 June 1646, who married John Parkhurst, and died before her father. His wife Rebecca died 16 April 1661, aged 55, and he married 1 September 1661, Joan Buckminster, daughter of Thomas Buckminster of Muddy River, now Brookline. His will of 10 December 1668, probated 11 July 1672, four weeks after his death, makes Benjamin, before mentioned, his executor, names, also, Samuel, "married many years ago," and two other sons, two daughters Mixer and Garfield, besides grandchildren Sarah Parkhurst, and Sarah and Ephraim Garfield. Rebecca became 10 January 1661, 2nd wife of lsaac Mixer. It seems to me, that Dr. Bond has confused the father and son making each death on the same day, and the age of the elder forbidding the likelihood of his being father of the children.

JOSEPH GARFIELD, Watertown, son of the preceding. He married 3 April 1663, Sarah Gale, daughter of Richard Gale, had Edward, born 22 June 1664; Abigail; Benjamin, 18 November 1669; Jonathan, 17 February 1672; Sarah, 18 February 1674; Jerusha, 6 June 1677; John, 8 June 1680; Rebecca, 1683; and Grace, 1688. He was freeman 1690.

SAMUEL GARFIELD, Watertown, eldest brother of the preceding, born I presume, in England. By wife Susanna, who died 2 May 1652, had John, born 8 February 1646, died in 3 years; Ephraim, 20 November 1649. He married 28 September 1652, Mary Benfield, had Mary, 30 June 1653; Sarah, 17 January 1655; Rachel, 23 November 1666; Elizabeth, 8 December 1658; Deborah; John, 7 July 1664; Ruth, 25 April 1666; Lydia, 31 August 1668; Daniel, 5 November 1670, died at 13 years; perhaps Ann; Mercy, 18 February 1674; Elizabeth, 16 September 1676. He died 20 November 1684. He had lived many years in Salem. Perhaps in England this name became Gaffleld.

JARVIS GARFORD, Salem, before 1635, says Felt, he had wife Ann, and was freeman 22 May 1639. He sold estate at Beverly in October 1653. Perhaps it was sometimes called Graffort.

JABEZ GARLAND, Dover. By wife Dorcas, had Jabez, born 10 February 1693; Dorcas, 3 April 1698; Rebecca, 25 January 1700; Ebenezer, 14 March 1704; Nathaniel, 12 April 1706; and Lydia, 17 February 1708.

JACOB GARLAND, Newbury, son of John Garland. He married 17 January 1682, Rebecca Sears, daughter of Thomas Sears, had Jacob, born 26 October 1682; and Rebecca, 3 December 1683. He removed to Hampton, and there had eleven more.

JOHN GARLAND, Hampton. He married 26 October 1664, Elizabeth Philbrick, widow of Thomas Chase, daughter of Thomas Philbrick, had Jacob, and perhaps other children. He died 4 January 1672. His widow married 19 February 1674, Henry Roby.

JOHN GARLAND, Hampton, took oath of allegiance December 1678. He may have been son of the preceding.

PETER GARLAND, Charlestown 1637, Boston 1664. By wife Joan, had Mary. He removed perhaps to New Hampshire before 1686.

JOSEPH GARLICK, New London 1661. In a few years went to Brookhaven, or Easthampton, where his wife was charged with witchcraft in 1657, and, luckily for her, the case was referred, and she sent to Hartford; and her life was saved. See Trumbull, Colony Record of Connecticut I. 573; Wood's and Thompson's History of Long Island and the Memoirs in 3 Massachusetts History Collections X. 183, of Lyon Gardiner, who seems to have been wise enough to assert her innocence though her name was enough.

THOMAS GARNER, Boston 1648, merchant. A Captain Garner is named by Belknap service with his company 1689 against Indians. Often this is the form of spelling Gardner, from sound.

JOHN GARNETT, Hingham 1656. Judith Garnett, possibly his sister or mother came in the Francis 1634, aged 26, from Ipswich, and was the same year in September 1634 administered of Boston church as "our brother John Coggeshall's maid servant" and either as maid or widow. She soon married Robert Shelley of Scituate, and took letters of dismissal to the church there 14 July 1644. His widow married in June 1669, Nathaniel Chubbuck, says the record, and Mary, born 8 November 1654, who married 5 December 1683, Nathan Farrow; I suppose he had sons also, John; Samuel, 23 March 1656; died Deborah, 5 July 1657; Joanna, and

STEPHEN GARNETT, who married December 1687, Sarah Warren, who may have been daughter of Joseph Warren. Joanna married 26 January 1690, Thomas Whiton.

JOSEPH GARNSEY, New Haven 1647. He removed probably to Stamford, and married 11 May 1659, Rose Waterbury, daughter of John Waterbury, had Joseph, born 1662; perhaps others. He died 11 November 1688.

JOSEPH GARNSEY, Milford. He married 10 April 1673, Hannah Coley, daughter of Samuel Coley of the same, had Joseph, born 1675, baptized February 1678; and Sarah, 1678; perhaps others. He and son Joseph lived there 1713.

JOSEPH GARNSEY, Stamford, probably son of the first Joseph Garnsey of the same, was living 1701.

DANIEL GARRETT, DANIEL GARRAD, or DANIEL GARRARD, Hartford 1640. He had Daniel, born 1647. He was a prison-keeper many years, and was living 1687, aged 75.

HIRAM GARRETT, HIRAM GARRAD, or HIRAM GARRARD, or HERMAN GARRETT, HERMAN GARRAD, or HERMAN GARRARD, Charlestown 1638, had Mary, born 3 June 1638, and landed in Concord.

JAMES GARRETT, JAMES GARRAD, or JAMES GARRARD, Charlestown 1637, freeman 6 June 1639. By wife Deborah, had Mary, born 4 May 1638; Priscilla, 28 June baptized 15 July 1640; James, 6 August 1643, the same or another James in record 4 August 1646; and perhaps others. Probably this was the master of the ship in whose unhappy voyage to London, 1657, perished Thomas Mayhew, Davis, Ince, and Pelham, all scholars, the hope of the country, going to England for employment of which Gookin, in his History Collections printed in Volume I. of the Collection of the Soc. 202, gives sufficient account. His widow Deborah went home, lived at Wapping, and sold her lands here 1663.

JOSEPH GARRETT, JOSEPH GARRAD, or JOSEPH GARRARD, Scituate, eldest son of Richard Garrett of the same (in Genealogical Registrar IX. 316, mistaken for Gannett, which see before mentioned ). He married 17 January 1677, Ruth Buck, daughter of Isaac Buck, had only son Joseph, born 1680, and four daughters named in his will Ruth Wade, Mary Briggs, Elizabeth Briggs, and Jael Garrett, as Deane relates. He had served in Philip's war.

JOSEPH GARRETT, JOSEPH GARRAD, or JOSEPH GARRARD, Hartford, perhaps son perhaps grandson of Daniel Garrett, was there 1693.

RICHARD GARRETT, RICHARD GARRAD, or RICHARD GARRARD, Charlestown, shoemaker. He came, no doubt, in the fleet with Winthrop, requested administration as freeman 19 October 1630, but was lost in a storm, of which full report is in Winthrop I. 40. Hannah, "a fatherless child" died says the record February 1632, and I suppose her to have been his daughter probably that one who went through the wreck with him.

RICHARD GARRETT, RICHARD GARRAD, or RICHARD GARRARD, Scituate, first town clerk 1636. He married Lydia Tilden, daughter of Elder Nathaniel Tilden, had Joseph, born 1648; John, 1651; Mary, 1655; and Richard; besides Lydia, 10 October 1659. Deane supposes him to have been son of the preceding in which he must be mistaken; but may be nearer to probable in thinking him that Richard who died at Boston, 29 March 1662.

RICHARD GARRETT, RICHARD GARRAD, or RICHARD GARRARD, Scituate, youngest son of the preceding. He married 1695, Persis Pierce, daughter of Captain Michael Pierce, had daughters Ann, and Deborah; and son John, born 1706.

ROBERT GARRETT, ROBERT GARRAD, or ROBERT GARRARD, Boston. By wife Mary, had John, born 2 June 1643; Robert; Mary; and Sarah. All were mentioned in his will of 27 November 1660, in which he says "being bound on a voyage to Barbados;" yet he lived probably some years after that. In the deed of Boston estate to him, he is styled Garret, alias Bentcher. His son John, says Deane, had only son Richard, born 1689.

JOHN GARRETSON, Boston. He married 5 December 1659, Alice Willey, perhaps daughter of Isabel Willey.

EDWARD GARRISON, or EDWARD GARRESEN, Boston. He married 29 August 1660, Joan Pullen.

HENRY GARROLD, Boston, a tanner, 1639. He had bought in November 1638 house of James Hawkins, that had been Mr. Brenlon's.

JOHN GARVEN, Salem. He was drowned 5 February 1662, and his posthumous daughter Elizabeth was born 26 July 1662.

EDWARD GASCOYNE, EDWARD GASKIN, or EDWARD GASKELL, Salem, shipwright, had grant of land 1637. By wife Sarah, had Samuel, baptized 7 August 1639; Daniel, 10 October 1640; Sarah, 14 May 1643; Hannah, 1 March 1646; and Edward, 30 April 1648. Sarah married 24 May 1661, Peter Joy.

SAMUEL GASCOYNE, SAMUEL GASKIN, or SAMUEL GASKELL, Salem, son probably of the preceding. He married 30 December 1662, Provided Southwick, daughter of Lawrence Southwick, had Samuel, born 23 January 1664; Edward, 22 October 1667; Hannah, 2 January 1670; and Provided, 22 April 1672. He was punished 1658 for his curiosity or depravity in attending a Quaker meet. He had son John, who died 9 October 1686, perhaps few days old; and his wife Elizabeth died 18 October 1686. The Salem record also certifies that by wife Elizabeth, he had Elizabeth, born 13 May 1688; where we can see that an error of date is given unless he had second wife of the same name as the first. But he could certainly not be father of that temporary dweller in Cambridge or Charlestown named

SAMUEL GASCOYNE, SAMUEL GASKIN, or SAMUEL GASKEL, who was after of New Haven. He married very likely as second wife 20 July 1687, Elizabeth Sherman, daughter of John Sherman, but whether the minister or the Captain is by Bond left uncertain. Yet we may easily presume that between the two Samuels there is confusion though we may be very sure that no Quaker would then have been permitted to married a daughter of either Captain or Reverend Johnson it was clear. The daughter of Reverend John that married at mature age after her father's death. Samuel Gascoyne, a thriving merchant of New Haven, had probably Samuel and Mary perhaps by former wife, and he had baptized at Watertown, John, 30 November 1690. He died 1706. His inventory was of 20 January 1707, and Sherman's daughter Elizabeth was administer.

SAMUEL GASCOYNE, SAMUEL GASKIN, or SAMUEL GASKELL, Stratford, son of the preceding. He died soon after his father, leaving wife Abigail half his estate besides provision in case she were pregnant, and residue to sister Mary Gascoyne, by his will of 31 January 1707.

JEREMIAH GATCHELL, or JEREMIAH GETCHELL, sometimes JEREMIAH GITCHELL, Marblehead 1668-1674.

JOHN GATCHELL, or JOHN GETCHELL, sometimes JOHN GITCHELL, Salem 1637, aged about 26, was of Marblehead 1648. He may have been the father of that John Gatchell, a soldier in Beers’ company who fell 4 September 1675, with his leader at Squakeag fight.

He was from old Hingham, removed to Cambridge, thence 1654 to Lancaster, where he was constable 1657, freeman 1656. He went back to Cambridge, there died 1662. He calls himself of Cambridge in his will, made 9 June 1662, probated 7 October 1662. He had Stephen, Simon, and Thomas, born I think, on this side of the ocean; and those he brought probably were Elizabeth, who married November or 22 December 1649, John Lazell; and Mary, who married 5 April 1658, John Maynard.

WILLIAM GAULT, of Yarmouth, County Norfolk, cordwainer, aged 29 years a single man. He embarked 11 May 1637 in the Mary Ann, but we know not his residence here; nor can the name be found, except that John Easton, who became Governor of Rhode Island had married 4 February 1661, Mehitable Gault who may have been his daughter. But it may well seem that he lived at Salem, for there Mary Goult, daughter of William Goult or William Gott, had contract for marriage with Richard Bishop, as his second wife in July 1660, as in Essex Institute II. 182, is well shown.

THOMAS GAUNT, Rehoboth, perhaps son of the preceding, may be the same as in another part of the Colony Record is given Grant, of the buried of whose child September 1676, mention is made on Colony Record. Had John, born 21 January 1678.

He died 4 March 1688; and his widow died 14 August 1691. Hezekiah Gay died unmarried 20 November 1669, having in his nuncupative will 25 October 1669 remembered father, mother, brothers and sisters, Nathaniel, John, Jonathan, Samuel, Abigail, and Judith, and gave especially to "sister Whiting that new book concerning Thomas Savage," for which I fear, all search in bibliographical works will be vain. In the lists of freeman 1644 and 45 appears the name of John Gay, but it may well be feared, that one, if not both, is or are repetition only. Another family of Gay there was, indeed, in Dedham, or in that part which became Wrentham, who widely spread, but of who the progenitor is not known to me.

By wife Elizabeth Harris, married 25 September 1688, was father of several children: besides Reverend Joshua Gee, born 29 June 1698, baptized 3 July 1698 at Mather's church, Harvard College 1717, colleague of Reverend Cotton Mather (and reputed a man of large mental power, of which a well driven character is in Eliot's Biographical Dictionary) who was father of Joshua Gee, Harvard College 1744, and died 22 May 1748. The first Joshua had second wife Elizabeth Thacher, daughter of Judah Thacher, married 7 December 1704. His widow became third wife of Reverend Peter Thacher of Milton.

PETER GEE, Boston 1667, fisherman. By wife Grace, had Thomas, John, and Joshua, the two before mentioned.

WALTER GENDALL, Falmouth 1669, an enterprising trader among the Indians, was also of Scarborough, and North Yarmouth last, Representative 1683 and 84, was Captain against the enemy, and in the first fight of the war of 1688 defeated them, and next day was killed by the Indians in ambuscade. Willis, I. 153. 81. 95.

ISAAC GENERY, or ISAAC CHENERIE, Dedham, in that part which became Medfield, son of Lambert Genery. He married 16 November 1654, Elizabeth Gamlyn, daughter of Robert Gamlyn, had Elizabeth, born 6 April 1657.

JOHN GENERY, or JOHN CHENERIE, Watertown, brother of the preceding, had probably been at Haverhill 1646. He married 12 May 1656, Sarah Boylston, daughter of Thomas Boylston of Watertown, had John, born 7 or 17 December 1657. He was in Captain Beers’ company in Philip's war, and died the next day (5 September 1675) after being wounded 4 September 1675, at Squakeage. His widow died 14 September 1704.

LAMBERT GENERY, or LAMBERT CHENERIE, Dedham 1636, may have been first at Watertown, freeman 1645. He had the two sons before mentioned, and by another wife married 14 May 1656, Thomasin Hewes, who died at Watertown 2 January 1670, had Mary, born 24 December 1659; and another daughter perhaps, who married Richard Ellis. He died at Dedham 30 January 1674. His will, of 17 January 1674, probated 4 February 1674, names the three children of himself. Then gives to children of his son-in-law Richard Ellis, and to daughter-in-law Ruth Ellis, widow whereby we may be led to assume that he had married a widow Ellis for 3rd wife.

JAMES GEORGE, Haverhill 1653, Salisbury 1662, was of Amesbury in 1677, when he swore fidelity. By wife Sarah. had Samuel born 25 February 1666.

JOHN GEORGE, Watertown. He had Robert and Susanna by a wife unknown to us. These children were probably born in England where his wife may have died. He married at Watertown, Ann Goldstone, daughter of Henry Goldstone. He died 1647, his inventory being of 12 June 1647, and probated 29 June 1647. His widow died 26 April 1670, aged 79. Susanna married 1 October 1648, Robert Harrington; but of Robert we hear no more.

JOHN GEORGE, Charlestown 1657, had been in March 1641 apprentice for 8 years to Governor Winthrop with his own consent, so that he may have been of full age, and a different person from him who was one of the founders of the First Baptist Church in Boston 1665. He died 12 September 1666. Hutchinson College 399, shows the sad proceedings just before by the Court against him. His nuncupative will names widow Elizabeth, children Elizabeth Glazier, Martha Roe, or Row, John, Ruth, Hannah, and Mary. His widow married at Harbour, and she had her children baptized Mary George, 15 April 1677; and John George, called young man, 5 August 1677. Mary married 11 July 1678, Joseph Dowse; Hannah married 25 November 1673, James Miller; and Ruth married 1668, Samuel Frothingham..

JOHN GEORGE, Boston, possibly son of the preceding, but more probably of Peter George. He married Lydia Lee, daughter of Reverend Samuel Lee. He was one of the first members of Brattle Street church February 1700. His widow became third wife of Reverend Cotton Mather, 5 July 1715.

JOHN GEORGE, Charlestown, perhaps son of John George of the same. He had in 1690 wife Mary Lowden, daughter of John Lowden, married 11 September 1688.

NICHOLAS GEORGE, Dorchester, inn holder, freeman 1666, then called senior. He had wife Elizabeth, son Nicholas, and probably other children. Made his will 27 April 1675, and died perhaps the same year, for license in 1676 was given to his widow Elizabeth who died at Dorchester 8 November 1699, in 98^th year.

NICHOLAS GEORGE, Dorchester, son of the preceding. By wife Abigail, had Nicholas, born at Charlestown, 20 March 1663; John, 4 July 1665; and perhaps other children. He removed to Boston, and by the blundering record there his wife Mary brought him John, 6 February 1684; Nicholas, 7 February 1684; Mary, 5 February 1686; Mary, again, 28 June 1688; and Nicholas, again, 23 January 1688-89.

PETER GEORGE, Braintree. He had children Susan, born February 1643; Mary, 7 September 1645; Hannah, 7 September 1648; John, 24 June 1650, died soon; Samuel, 12 April 1651; John, again, 1653; and Peter, 9 January 1655. He sold his estate at Braintree and removed 1670, to Block island.

RICHARD GEORGE, Boston. He married 1 November 1655, Mary Pell, daughter of William Pell, had Mary, born 22 August 1656; Hannah, 21 January 1661; Thomas, 11 October 1663; Mary, again, 26 January 1666; and Elizabeth 8 April 1670.

WILLIAM GEORGE, Lynn 1637. Lewis. In all probably he is the gentleman called Captain, who as one of the Commissioners of Gorges, held a Court at Saco on 26 March 1636, and may reasonably be supposed to have gone home.

JOHN GERAERD, JOHN GARRIARD, JOHN GERIARD, JOHN GERAERDI, Warwick, was a Dutchman from Manhados, who about 1651 sat down at Narraganset. He married that daughter of the second wife of Ezekiel Holliman, whose name before the marriage of her mother was Meribah Sweet, daughter of Isaac Sweet, and thereafter changed to Renewed Hollyman. He is among the freeman of 1655. He left children as by Judge Brayton I am assured, viz. Mary, who married 2 January 1672, and

JOHN GERAERD, JOHN GARRIARD, JOHN GERIARD, JOHN GERAERDI, Warwick, who by wife Deliverance, had John, born 22 December 1695; and Sweet, 15 May 1699.

BENJAMIN GERRISH, Salem, son of Captain William Gerrish. He married 24 October 1676, Hannah Ruck, daughter of John Ruck, had five sons and six daughters, but only four children by the first wife, who died 25 June 1685. He married 12 November following Ann Paine, perhaps daughter of John Paine of Boston, by her had five children. She died 1695, and he married 24 September 1696, Elizabeth Turner, had two more children. He was freeman 1681, and collector of the port 1682. He died 2 April 1713. His eldest son Benjamin Gerrish, born 17 January 1683, was made, it is said, Governor of Bermuda 1754, and died next year.

JOHN GERRISH, Salem 1651, shipwright. He married perhaps 1652, Elizabeth Higginson, daughter of Reverend John Higginson. See Genealogical Registrar VI. 339, and 342, where I am sure there must be a chance for mistake, for John Higginson could have no daughter old enough to be married that year or the next; nor had he ever a daughter Elizabeth that we hear of. In a later generation John Gerrish married Elizabeth Higginson and we may presume this earlier John to be as mythical as his wife.

JOHN GERRISH, Dover 1669, eldest son of William Gerrish the Captain. He married Elizabeth Waldron, daughter of Major Richard Waldron, had Richard Gerrish, who was a counselor and died before 1737; John Gerrish, a Captain; Paul Gerrish, a Colonel and counselor for Massachusetts; Nathaniel Gerrish, a Captain; Timothy Gerrish, a Colonel and counselor, father of Robert Eliot Gerrish, Harvard College 1730, the first double name in the catalogue; and of Joseph Gerrish, Harvard College 1752; and Benjamin Gerrish, who was of Boston, artillery company 1714. At the assault on her grandfather Waldron's house, Sarah, probably daughter of this John Gerrish, was taken and carried away by the Indians. He was a Captain, sheriff, Representative 1684, counselor 1689, and Judge of the Supreme Court of New Hampshire. He died 1714.

JOSEPH GERRISH, Wenham, brother of the preceding, freeman 1673, was ordained that year as successor of Antipas Newman. He married Ann Waldron, daughter of Major Richard Waldron, had, besides Ann and another daughter Elizabeth, born 9 October 1673 (both of who married ministers), sons Joseph, born 25 April 1676; Paul; John; and Samuel. He died 6 January 1720. Of these Joseph Gerrish, Harvard College 1700, is in italics, as a minister; but the catalogue does not give the year of his death. Samuel Gerrish, the bookseller, was Suffolk Registrar of Deeds, and town clerk of Boston.

MOSES GERRISH, Newbury, youngest brother of the preceding. He married 24 September 1677, Jane Sewall, daughter of Henry Sewall, and sister of Chief Justice Sewall, had Joanna, born 3 October 1678; Joseph, 20 March 1682; Sarah, 25 December 1683; Elizabeth, 27 December 1685; Mary, 20 September 1687, and John, posthumous 2 April 1695. He died 4 December 1694.

WILLIAM GERRISH, Newbury, from Bristol England, where he was born 20 August 1617, but another account that seems more probable says 17 August 1620. He came about 1640. By tradition, it is idly said he was an officer under the Duke of Buckingham, yet as the grand Duke was assassinated 23 August 1628, when Gerrish was at most eleven years old, or only eight, and another Duke of Buckingham could not have come before 1640, we may slight the report. First Captain of the Newbury band, however, we know he was by Johnson's Wonderwork Province and he was Representative 1650-53, and also for Hampton 1663 and 64. He married 17 April 1645, Joanna Oliver, daughter of John Oliver, had John, born 12 February, or by another account 15 May 1646; Abigail, 10, May 1647; William, 6 June 1648; Joseph, 23 March 1650, E.C. 1669; Benjamin, 13 January 1653; Elizabeth, 10 September 1654; Moses, 9 May 1656; Mary, 1 April or 9 May 1658; Ann, 18 October 1660; and Judith, 10 September 1662. His wife died 14 June 1677. He removed next year to Boston, there married Ann Parker, widow I suppose of John Manning, as she is said to be daughter of Richard Parker, had Henry. On a visit to a relative at Salem, he died 9 August 1687. Elizabeth married 23 October 1676, Stephen Greenleaf junior; and Mary married the same day, 23 October 1676, John Dole.

WILLIAM GERRISH, Newbury, son of the preceding, was a physician. He married 1671, Ann, had William, born 21 January 1674. He removed to Charlestown, there probably had Henry, born September 1676, died young, and the father died 10 May 1683. His widow married 14 January 1685, Lawrence Hammond, as his fourth wife. Eight of this name had been graduates in 1812 at Harvard and two are found on the catalogue of other New England Colleges.

JOHN GESBIE, or JOHN GESBRO, New London, had, says Miss Caulkins, grant of land 1651; but did not improve it, nor have I heard such a name.

ROBERT GIBBARD, or ROBERT GIBBERT, came in the Arabella from London 1671; but no more is heard of him.

TIMOTHY GIBBARD, or TIMOTHY GIBBERT, New Haven, son of William Gibbard. He married Sarah Coe, had two daughters, and he died under 30 years old.

WILLIAM GIBBARD, or WILLIAM GIBBERT, New Haven 1647, from Warwickshire, owned property at Tamworth, as did his brother Timothy Gibbard of Calladownhouse, near Coventry, both in that ship. He had wife Ann Tapp, daughter of Edmund Tapp (who next married William Andrews), and nine children named in his will of 6 August 1662: Hannah, baptized 31 October 1641; Esther, baptized 5 March born 1643; Mary, 20 January 1645; Phebe, baptized 10 January 1647; Sarah, born October 1648; Rebecca, February 1651; Samuel, 7, baptized 8 May 1653; Timothy, born October 1655; and Abigail, 18, baptized 19 August 1660; besides John, baptized 19 September 1658, who probably was dead in a few months. He was a man of distinction, Representative 1652, Secretary of the Colony 1657, and Assistant 1661. He died 9 August 1662. Samuel died 1673. See Trumbull, I. 233, 41, 50. His widow married William Andrews; Rebecca married 11 December 1667, Thomas Yale; and Phebe married early in 1676, Nathan, the son of William Andrews; and Abigail married 26 June 1683, John Goodyear. Both his and Timothy's heirs were proprietors 1685.

AMBROSE GIBBONS, or AMBROSE GIBBINS, Portsmouth 1630, factor of the company of Laconia. He came that year, and his wife came the following year, of Dover, 1648. He was a selectman, and lived at the part called Oyster river. He died 11 July 1656, and May 1657, his administrator sold the estate. His daughter Rebecca married Henry Sherburne.

EDWARD GIBBONS, or EDWARD GIBBINS, Charlestown 1630, had some year’s earlier lived among the church of misrule at Mount Wollaston, but was seriously impressed by the service, 1629, at ordination of Higginson and Skelton. He requested to be freeman 19 October 1630, and was recorded 18 May 1631. Removed soon to Boston, was Representative 1635, artillery company 1637, its Captain 1641, 46, and 54, Major General 1649, and Assistant 1650. He died 9 December 1654. He had good estate but it was lost in his friendship for one of the two French competitions for L'Acadie. His wife was Margaret, and town record says daughter Jerusha was born 5 October 1631, probably died before baptism, but our church record mentioned baptism of Jotham, 27 October 1633; Edward, 3 January 1636, died soon; Edward, again, 26 March 1637; a son whose name is illegible or preposterous, 7 October 1638; and John, 18 April 1641. Jotham was of Bermuda, 1655, but lived at Boston, and died 1658. A Mr. Gibbons made a visit to Boston 1668. Scottow speaks of his "honorable extract." A worthless forgery of six pages, probably at London, 1708, represented as official dispatch from commander of a Spanish fleet, 1640, tells of our Major Gibbons in July 1640 on the Northwest coast of this continent in a grand ship from Boston. By it the amiable credibility of a writer in N.A. Reverend No. CII. page 131, was nearly overcome, as on the next page it wholly gave way to a greater delusion; but the fraud was exposed.

HENRY GIBBONS, or HENRY GIBBINS, New Haven, 1644, a proprietor 1685, is, probably that steward of Thomas Trowbridge's affairs, when he left New Haven for England. His agency required some force by the sons of Trowbridge to extricate their estate. He died late in 1686, and gave his estate to Trowbridge. He calls William Gibbons his brother.

JAMES GIBBONS, or JAMES GIBBINS, Saco. He came in the Increase, 1635, aged 21, sent with others by a London goldsmith, freeman 1653, was a man of much service. He had wife Judith Lewis, daughter of Thomas Lewis, and children James, Elizabeth, Thomas, Charity, Rebecca, Rachel, Esther, and Anthony. Folsom, 111. Rachel married Robert Edgcomb.

JAMES GIBBONS, or JAMES GIBBINS, Saco, son of the preceding. He married 1668, Dorcas Seely, daughter of William Seely. Folsom, 188.

WILLIAM GIBBONS, or WILLIAM GIBBINS, Hartford 1639, sent with 20 men by George Wyllys, 1636, as agent to prepare a settlement for his employer, was in good esteem, and living 1647. He had wife Ursula and only child Sarah, born 17 August 1645, who married James Richards.

WILLIAM GIBBONS, or WILLIAM GIBBINS, New Haven, one of the signers to the compact of 1639, a proprietor in 1685, brother of Henry Gibbons, before mentioned. His only child Ann married Ellis Mew, outlived him, and died February 1704. She had brought in the inventory of her £1689. Sarah Gibbons, passenger arrived at Boston in the Speedwell, 27 July 1656, aged 21, was banished as Quaker.

BENJAMIN GIBBS, Boston, perhaps son of Giles Gibbs, was first at Boston 1662. By wife Lydia Scottow, daughter of Joshua Scottow, had Benjamin, born 22 May 1665, died young; Lydia, 26 January1670; Benjamin, again, 26 February 1673, died soon; and Benjamin, a third time, 29 July 1674. He was freeman 1666, served on Connecticut river as Captain in Philip's war, 1676, and he died soon after. His widow married 1678, Anthony Checkley, the Attorney-General, and next 6 March 1712 William Colman, father of Reverend Benjamin Colman.

GILES GIBBS, Dorchester 1630, probably came in the Mary and John, freeman 4 March 1633, was selectman 1634. He removed to Windsor, there died 21 May 1641. His will of three days before, 18 May 1641, names wife Catharine, and children Gregory, born 1640, Samuel, Benjamin, Sarah, and Jacob, all minors; and perhaps all born on our side of the ocean. Sarah married John Share, it is said; but who he was is undiscovered.

GREGORY GIBBS, perhaps of Windsor, son of the preceding, was freeman of Connecticut 1658. He married Joyce Osborn, daughter of James Osborn. He was of Springfield 1677, and at Suffield 1683, and later. A Gregory Gibbs is by Felt found at Salem 1655.

HENRY GIBBS, Hingham, came from old Hingham to Charlestown 1633, servant to Edmund Hobart. He died 7 July 1676; and it seems strange, that no other mention of him is found.

HENRY GIBBS, Watertown, son of Robert Gibbs, continued after graduating at College to study [Hutchinson I. 172]. He married 9 June 1692, Mercy Greenough, daughter of William Greenough, who died 24 January 1717, had Elizabeth, born 12 January 1696, died at 4 months; Mercy, 23 December 1696; Margaret, 3 July 1699; Henry, 16 March 1702, died next year; William, 11 July 1704, died at 11 years; Mehitable, 8 January 1706; Henry Gibbs, again, 13 May 1709, Harvard College 1726. He was ordained 6 October 1697. He died 21 October 1723.

He married 4 December 167, Elizabeth Andrus, had Mary, born 21 April 1659; Abigail, 7 January 1662; Jacob, 1 December 1664, died soon; Jacob, again, 22 June 1666; Sarah, 28 February 1669; Elizabeth, 1 April 1672, and perhaps another daughter was born whose name is not to be seen on the defaced record nor the date. His wife died January 1696.

JOHN GIBBS, Cambridge. He came in 1637, perhaps in company with Governor Eaton from London. He had share in division of lands at Cambridge 1638, and in short time removed to New Haven. He was freeman in the earliest list, and with his wife had, 1647, seats assigned in the church by her, who died 1668. He had no children, but he married 27 October 1670, Hannah Punderson, daughter of John Punderson. He died 1690, leaving widow who was daughter of Punderson, and daughter Margaret, born 29 January 1684. His will of 27 November 1685, gave all to widow Hannah and daughter Margaret, except small gift to cousin Daniel Sherman.

JOHN GIBBS, Sandwich, perhaps second son of Thomas Gibbs of the same. He had Job, born 27 April 1676, and Barnabas, 24 June 1684.

JOHN GIBBS, Sudbury, son of Matthew Gibbs. He married 1688, Ann Gleason, daughter of Thomas Gleason, had Thomas, born 19 April 1689; Mercy, 3 August 1691; and John. He married second wife 31 May 1694, Sarah Cutler of Reading, had Sarah 8 December 1701; Nathaniel; Isaac; Jacob; Israel; and Ephraim. He died 2 April 1718.

MATTHEW GIBBS, Sudbury, was of Charlestown before 1654. He had by wife Mary Bradish, supposed to be daughter of Robert Bradish of Cambridge, Matthew and Thomas, twins born 17 December 1656; of which Thomas died soon; Thomas, again, 10 April 1660; John; Elizabeth; Hannah; and Mary. He died before 1697, when estate was settled. Elizabeth married John Russell of Duxbury; Hannah married 11 February 1674, Samuel Winch; and Mary married 23 March 1675, John Goodridge, and next, 12 November 1678, Thomas Frost, junior,

MATTHEW GIBBS, Sudbury, son of the preceding. He married 1678, Mary Moore, daughter of John Moore, had Matthew, born 12 March 1680; John; Samuel, 1 March 1685; Joseph, 7 October 1687; Jonathan; and Josiah. He had second wife Elizabeth Moore, sister of the first wife and we know not whether the children were all of one mother. He died 9 March 1732.

ROBERT GIBBS, Boston, merchant, born 1636 or 1639, of an ancient family in Warwickshire said to be son of Sir Henry. He came before 1660, for in this year he visited New London, where he had dealings in trading. Married 7 September 1660, Elizabeth Sheaffe, daughter of Jacob Sheaffe, deceased, had Margaret, born 13 May 1663; Robert, 20 September 1665; Henry Gibbs, 8 October 1668, Harvard College 1685, before mentioned; and Jacob, 18 February 1672. He died 7 December 1673, aged 37. His widow married 20 March 1676, Jonathan Curwin of Salem. The family of this name in Devonshire of whom was the late Sir Vicary, Chief Justice in the Commons Bench, was not the stock from who our Boston Gibbs is derived, but an offshoot seven or eight generations preceding from the ancient race in County Warwick, says the Genealogical History of the more ancient Gibbes. Robert Gibbs, it is said, was of the eighth generation from Thomas Gibbs, by whose eldest son of the same name. The male line was continued to Sir Henry Gibbs, father of the first settler at Boston.

ROBERT GIBBS, Boston, son of the preceding. He married 19 May 1692, Mary Shrimpton, daughter of Jonathan Shrimpton, as I judge, had Jacob, born 6 March 1693; Henry, 7 November 1694; Robert, 29 November 1696; Mary, 28 May 1699; and Samuel, 9 December 1701. He was perhaps, the freeman of 1690, then living at Salem village. He died at Boston 7 December 1702.

SAMUEL GIBBS, Sandwich. He had Samuel, born 22 June 1649; and Sarah, 11 April 1652.

His wife died 22 February 1698; and he died about 1716.

SAMUEL GIBBS, Sandwich, son of Samuel Gibbs of the same. He married 5 March 1676, Patience Butler, daughter of Thomas Butler of the same; but no further could the diligence of my informer instruct me.

THOMAS GIBBS, Sandwich, brother of Samuel Gibbs the first. He had Thomas, born 25 March 1636; Samuel, 22 June 1639; John, 12 September probably 1644; Sarah, 11 April 1652; Job and a twin sister Bethia, 15 April 1655; and Mary, 12 August 1657. Barry. Perhaps he had two wives.

THOMAS GIBBS, Sandwich, son of the preceding. He married 1674, Alice Warren, daughter of the first Nathaniel Warren, had Bethia, born 10 December 1675; and Thomas, 28 January 1679.

WILLIAM GIBBS, New Haven, a hatter, swore fidelity April 1654, and no more is known. Seven of this name, including Gibbes, had, in 1828, been graduates at Harvard and six at Yale and New Jersey Colleges.

CHRISTOPHER GIBSON, Dorchester 1630. He came, probably in the Mary and John, desired administration as freeman 19 October 1630, but why he took not the oath is unknown. Married Margaret Bates, daughter of James Bates. He removed to Boston 1646, and was one of the founders of Second Church 5 June 1650. He was chosen 6 November 1670, a Deacon. He died 3 October 1674. He was a soap-boiler, and gave town of Dorchester some land valuable to their purpose in 1846.

JOHN GIBSON, Cambridge 1634, freeman 17 May 1637, in petition to the King 1688, calls himself 87; [Hutchinson 1. 367.] and he died 1694. His wife was Rebecca (who was buried 1 December 1661, by Eliot's church record probably correct, while another by interchange of the numerals for day and month made the date 10 March and the anxious may go to the original), and children: Rebecca; Mary, born 29 March 1637; Martha, 29 April 1639; besides John; and Samuel, born 28 October 1644. The eldest son and daughter were probably born in England. He married second wife 24 July 1662, Joanna Prentiss, daughter of Henry Prentiss. Rebecca married 22 June 1654, Charles Stearns of Cambridge; Mary married 3 April 1655, John Ruggles; and Martha married 3 November 1657, Jacob Newell; both of Roxbury.

JOHN GIBSON, Cambridge, son of the preceding, born probably in England. He married 9 December 1668, Rebecca Errington, had Rebecca, born 4 October 1669; Timothy; and Mary. He died 15 October 1679, aged 48, says Harris, Epit. 7, where he mistook the son for the father.

JOHN GIBSON, Watertown. He married 14 October 1680, Hannah Underwood, daughter of Joseph Underwood, had Silence, born 17 December 1680; and Mary, 27 July 1682.

RICHARD GIBSON, Portsmouth, bred at Magdalen College Cambridge, had his A.B. 1636. He perhaps came in April 1637, under patronage of Trelawney to instruct his fishermen at Richmond Isle, and preacher, after, at Isle of Shoals, gave offence to our government. By exercise of his function of baptism and marriage as Episcopal, was ordained and went home in 1642. Willis, L 26. Folsom, 78. 9. Winthrop II. 66.

RICHARD GIBSON, Maine, a soldier. He was very severely punished 1674 for drunkenness and striking his Captain Frost; yet the same, or another

RICHARD GIBSON was on service in opposite quarter of the country, December 1675, under Moseley.

ROGER GIBSON, New London 1675, said to be from Rhode Island. He had William and only daughter Thankful, who married George Smith. He died about 1682.

He married 30 October 1668, Sarah Pemberton, daughter of James Pemberton, had Martha, born 12 December 1671, and Samuel, who died 14 September 1676.

WILLIAM GIBSON, Boston 1665, or Lynn. There his son Purchas died 15 June 1665; and Aquila died 4 November 1671. He was a cordwainer, freeman 1677; and I suppose the gifted preacher mentioned by Backus, I. 435.

WILLIAM GIBSON, Boston, perhaps son of the preceding. He married Hannah, daughter of Gamaliel Phippen.

WILLIAM GIBSON, New London, son of Roger Gibson. Two of this name had, in 1828, been graduates at Harvard and six at Yale and New Jersey Colleges.

GEORGE GIDDINGS, Ipswich. He came in the Planter 1635, aged 25, with wife Jane Tuttle, daughter of John Tuttle, 20. He was freeman 7 September 1638, Representative 1641, and 8 years more. He had Thomas, John, James, Samuel, Joseph, and Mary, who married Samuel Pearce, or Pierce. He died 1 June 1676, leaving good estate, his wife outliving him. Often it is spelt Gittings. He had a lawsuit on a very great question, of which Hutchinson College 287 gives full and interesting report.

JOHN GIDDINGS, Ipswich, perhaps brother of the preceding, Representative 1653-55. He died about 1680, leaving three daughters besides sons Thomas and William, of which the elder died soon after his father.

STEPHEN GIFFORD, Norwich 1660, an original proprietor. He married May 1667, Hannah Gove, had Samuel, born 1668; Hannah, 17 January 1671. His wife died 24 January 1671. He married 1672, Hannah Gallop, daughter of John Gallop, had John, born 1673; Ruth, 1676; Stephen, 1679; and Aquila, 1682. The second wife died 1721, aged 79; and he died 27 November 1724.

EBENEZER GILBERT, Hartford, youngest son of Jonathan Gilbert the first of the same. He had Esther, born 13 November 1694; and Thomas, 30 September 1699.

GILES GILBERT, Taunton, son of John Gilbert. He testified in 1703 that he was about 70 years, and remembered 50 years at the estate of his brother Thomas Gilbert there.

HENRY GILBERT, Springfield, son of Thomas Gilbert of the same. He had Henry, born 1684; John, 1685; Samuel, 1689, all there. He removed to Brookfield, and probably had more children.

HUMPHREY GILBERT, Ipswich 1648. He died 13 February 1658 (as record has it in Genealogical Registrar XII. 370), when his children all minors, were John; Abigail; Esther, aged 4 years; and two other daughters of which one was Mary who married 24 November 1672, Richard Palmer, and the other, June 1670, married Peter Harvey; one married Richard Palmer; one married Richard Comer; and one married Moses Ebborne; and to the four husbands administration was given January 1658. This proves the age of Esther, as counted very wrong, and his widow Elizabeth married 24 September 1658, William Rayner. His will of 14 February 1658, the day before he died, is in Genealogical Registrar XII. 298.

JOHN GILBERT, Dorchester. He may have come in the Mary and John 1630, or at least was here early with son Thomas and John, well grand youths. He perhaps had Giles or Joseph born there. He removed about 1637 to Taunton, being of the first settlers, and Representative 1639. He died after 1654, his will being of 10 May 1654 leaving wife Winifred of his will, who mentioned the four sons by name, daughter Mary Norcross, and her daughter Mary; and Elizabeth Peter, grandchild of his wife. Abstract is in Genealogical Registrar V. 338. The inventory was brought 3 June 1657.

JOHN GILBERT, Taunton 1637, son of the preceding, born in England. He may have been father of John, junior, wounded in the assault by the Indians at Medfield, February 1676, as also of Jonathan, an impressive soldier, on service at Connecticut river, who prayed for his discharge in October 1676.

JOHN GILBERT, Hartford, perhaps son of William Gilbert of Windsor, born in England. He married 6 May 1647, Amy Lord, daughter of the first Thomas Lord. He died 29 December 1690, leaving, as named in his will of 1 August 1690, children: Thomas, born 4 September 1658; Joseph, 3 April 1666; James; and Dorothy, wife of Palmer. But he had others, as by the record appears: John, born 16 January 1648, died soon; John, again, 19 February 1653; Elizabeth, 12 February 1656; Amy, 3 April 1663, who probably died young, as not in the will.

JOHN GILBERT, Boston. He married 5 May 1653, Mary Eaton, had Martha, born 8 December 1655; and John, 21 July 1660.

JOHN GILBERT, New Haven, son of Matthew Gilbert. He married 12 December 1667, Sarah Gregson, daughter of Thomas Gregson, had John, born 3 October 1668; Matthew, 24 February 1671, died at 3 years; and Thomas, 14 August 1673. He died 26 November 1673. His widow married 9 May 1676, Samuel Whitehead.

JOHN GILBERT, Wenham, freeman 1682, I suppose he had before lived at Ipswich. There married 27 September 1677, Elizabeth Kilham, had John, born 14 July 1678, and Mary, 10 January 1683. He was Deacon, and he died 17 March 1722.

JOHN GILBERT, Middletown. He married after 1680, Mary Harris, widow of John Ward, daughter of William Harris of Middletown, probably had no children, and died before his wife.

JONATHAN GILBERT, Hartford, brother of John Gilbert of the same, born in England. He married 29 January 1646, Mary White, daughter of John White, or Whight, not Wright, as Hinman, 260, prints, had Jonathan, born 11 May 1648, but one record says 15 December 1648; and Mary, 19 December 1649, died young. His wife died about the same time. He married 1650, Mary Welles, sister of Thomas Welles of Hadley (who died 3 July 1700, aged 74), had Sarah, born 25 July 1651; Mary; Lydia, 3 October 1654; Thomas, about 1655; Nathaniel; Samuel; Ebenezer; Esther; and Rachel. He was a man of distinction, kept an inn, and was many years marshal of the Colony. He died 10 December 1682, aged 64. His will of 10 September 1674, mentioned ten children living and grandchildren John Rossiter, Andrew Belcher, and Jonathan Richardson. His widow continued to keep the inn where her husband had so long, served the public, and in her will, of 20 May 1700, named all her eight children except Nathaniel, who had died unmarried. Sarah, the eldest daughter married 1 July 1670, Andrew Belcher, was mother of Governor Jonathan Belcher and died at Charlestown, 26 January 1689; Mary married John Rossiter, who died very soon; and next married Samuel Holton of Northampton; Lydia married Jonathan Richardson, had several children by him, and next married a Chapman, perhaps William; Esther married Charles Dickinson; and Rachel married 22 September 1686, Josiah Marshfield.

JONATHAN GILBERT, Middletown, son of the preceding. By wife Dorothy Stow, daughter of Reverend Samuel Stow, had Mary, John, Jonathan, Nathaniel, Sarah, and Ebenezer; the last born 5 months after the death of his father 1 February 1698. His widow died 14 July 1698. He had been a wild youth, and by will of his father had less shares of his estate than he could be content with.

JOSEPH GILBERT, Hartford, son of John Gilbert of the same. He married 17 May 1692, Mary Griswold. Perhaps the same Joseph Gilbert married 8 May 1695, Elizabeth Smith, daughter of Joseph Smith.

JOSIAH GILBERT, Wethersfield, brother of John Gilbert of Hartford, first heard of 1651. He died 1 September 1688. By wife Elizabeth, who died 17 October 1682, had Benjamin, born 22 September 1652; Elizabeth, 28 March 1654; Lydia, 8 December 1656; Josiah, 12 September 1659; Sarah, 1 December 1661; Ebenezer, 20 September 1663; Moses, 12 April 1666; Caleb, 10 June 1668; Mary, 18 November 1670; and Amy, 12 April 1672; besides John, who is recorded only at division of estate in Probate, and was the youngest of the eleven. His second wife was Mary Ward.

MATTHEW GILBERT, New Haven 1638. In 1639 he was one of the seven pillars for founding the church, next one of two Deacons and, last, ruling elder. He was an Assistant of the Colony 1658, Deputy Governor 1661, and died probably 1680. He had John, baptized April 1644; Sarah, born 7 April 1646 married 26 November 1668, John Todd; Rebecca, baptized 15 April 1649; who may all have died or got portions of his estate before. But in his will of 14 January 1680 names two sons and two daughters: Matthew, baptized June 1655; Samuel, 4 October 1657; Mary Auger; and Hannah, wife of Joseph Parker, married 3 June 1673. Of these, Mary, born 11, baptized 22 June 1651, married 20 November 1673, Robert Auger; and Hannah was baptized April 1653. His wife Jane died 1706. Over the remains of this latest Deputy Governor of the Colony and the only Assistant who had not the distinction of being an Assistant of the United Colony of Connecticut, though nominated, having failed of election after the charter of Charles II, the gravestone bears only the initials M.G., and above them the numerals 80. Perverse ingenuity, in President Stiles, supported an extravagant hypothesis (that the corpses of the two regicides, Whalley and Goffe, who died at Hadley, and there were buried by their devoted supporter, Reverend John Russell, very close to his cellar wall, had been disinterested and were brought to New Haven, to lie near that of Dixwell), has been compelled to suppose that by M.G. the stonecutter meant W.G.

MATTHEW GILBERT, New Haven, son of the preceding. By wife Sarah, had Matthew, born 1 February 1685, died very soon; Sarah, 10 March 1686; Matthew, again, 15 March 1689; Joseph, 21 May 1691; Elizabeth 14 May 1694; Daniel, 15 November 1697; David, 4 July 1700. He died 1711. His widow married 7 July 1717, Reverend Joseph Moss.

OBADIAH GILBERT, Fairfield, brother of John Gilbert of Hartford. He married Elizabeth Olmstead, daughter of Nehemiah Olmstead. He died 1674, leaving children Obadiah, Benjamin, Joseph, and Sarah Oldstead, who was of the former husband of his wife no doubt.

SAMUEL GILBERT, Colchester, son of first Jonathan Gilbert. He married 2 October 1684, Mary Rogers, daughter of Samuel Rogers of New London, of which town Colchester was then a part. He had Jonathan, born 29 June 1685; Samuel, 5 February 1688; Nathaniel, 26 September 1690; John, 12 April 1692; and Mary, 2 December 1696. The name was perpetuated there.

SAMUEL GILBERT, New Haven, youngest son of the first Matthew Gilbert. By wife Hannah, had Samuel, born 18 November 1697; Hannah and Rebecca, twins 19 January 1700; Ann; and Ebenezer, 1 July 1712. He died 1721.

THOMAS GILBERT, Taunton, son of John Gilbert the first, born in England. He married (it is said, the first ceremony in the town of this sort), Jane Rossiter, daughter of Hugh Rossiter, who died 9 June 1691. He had Thomas, born about 1643; and Jane, who married Samuel Williams; and perhaps more. He was freeman 1643, and Representative 1651, but went home in 1653, came here no more, and died 1676. Baylies, II. 281.

THOMAS GILBERT, Windsor. He may have been brother of John, Jonathan, Josiah, and Obadiah, but there is no proof. He removed 1655 to Springfield. He married 31 July 1655 year Catharine Chapin, widow of Nathaniel Bliss, daughter of Samuel Chapin, had Sarah, born 1636; John, 1657; Thomas, 1639; and Henry, 1661. He died 5 June 1662. His widow married 28 December 1664, Samuel Marshfield. Sarah married Samuel Field of Hatfield. John was taken by the Indians in Philip's war, 1675 or 76, and Mrs. Rowlandson, during her captivity among them, saw and assisted him. He escaped with great peril of his life; but I know nothing more.

THOMAS GILBERT, Topsfield, from Scotland, it is said, but I hesitate to believe it. He came in the Prudent Mary from London, arriving at Boston, July 1661. A fellow passenger was Chief Justice Samuel Sewall, then nine years old. He had been minister in England and soon found a place in our country as first minister of Topsfield in 1663. But his imprudence and intemperment required his dismissal and he went back to Charlestown, where he had first settled. He died 26 October 1673 at the house of Reverend Zechariah Symmes. His will, of 2 June 1673, who gives everything to wife Elizabeth, speaks of £30 due "for pains in the ministry at Topsfield" though we may fear, as his dismissal was not reputable, it could not be recovered at law. It is strange, that church records of Charlestown, on reception of his widow, called her Sarah. Budington gives from the Magnalia part IV. of Book III. cap. VI. the monument inscription which is still legible.

THOMAS GILBERT, Saybrook, son of John Gilbert of Hartford. He married 27 September 1681, Deborah Beamont, had a child 7 June 1683, that died in 12 days (19 June 1683), and the wife died two days earlier (17 June 1683).

THOMAS GILBERT, Taunton, son of Thomas Gilbert of the same, grandson of first John Gilbert, was an Ensign. He married at Boston 18 December 1676, Ann Black, called of Milton, who died 9 May 1722, aged 71. He died 20 April 1725, aged 82. In the records of the Proprietors of Taunton the children are thus described: Hannah, born 28 September 1677; Sarah and Mary, twins 11 August 1679; Thomas, 11 July 1681, perhaps died at 11 years; Nathaniel, 19 July 1683; and Mehitable, 5 May 1686.

THOMAS GILBERT, Boston, son of first Jonathan Gilbert, mariner, very brave and enterprising. Married 26 November 1689, Lydia Ballard, daughter of Samuel Ballard of Charlestown, had Ann, born 9 July 1692; Mary, 20 May 1694 ; Thomas, 24 August 1697; Samuel, 21 February 1699, Elizabeth, 7 February 1702; and Lydia, 9 July 1707. His wife died 23 March 1708, aged 37. On 24 September 1708 he married Mary Trowbridge. He died 9 February 1719, and his widow died about 30 December 1733.

WILLIAM GILBERT, Windsor 1640, made freeman of Connecticut that year. He was possibly father of several of the preceding but no more is told of him.

WILLIAM GILBERT, Boston, cordwainer and merchant 1676. He had wife Rebecca, three sons of which William was one, who died soon after his father, also daughter Mary. He died January 1693.

RICHARD GILDERSLEEVE, Stamford, one of the first settlers in 1641, was Representative in 1643, but he had been five years at Wethersfield before going to Stamford, yet it is not known that he went from Watertown or other part of Massachusetts. In 1663 he was of Hempstead, Long Island, whither he removed near 17 years before and in some of the time had lived at Newton. Next year had a commission for administration justice there. The family name was perpetuated by Richard Gildersleeve junior, probably his son.

DANIEL GILE, DANIEL GUILE, DANIEL GYLES, or DANIEL GILES, Salem 1689, fisherman.

EDWARD GILE, EDWARD GUILE, EDWARD GYLES, or EDWARD GILES, Salem, freeman 14 May 1634. He married widow Bridget Very, had there baptized Mehitable, 2 April 1637; Remember, 23 June 1639; Eleazur, 27 November 1640; and John, born 15 April baptized 11 May 1645. He died probably about 1650. His widow long outlived him, made her will 14 January 1669, probated 30 November 1680, giving estate to children Samuel and Thomas Very, the latter of Gloucester, Mary, wife of Thomas Cutler of Reading, and Eleazur, John, and perhaps other Giles children. Mehitable married 9 March 1659, John Collins of Gloucester; and Remember married 1 April 1659, Henry Moses of Salem.

ELEAZUR GILE, ELEAZUR GUILE, ELEAZUR GYLES, or ELEAZUR GILES, Salem, son of the preceding.

He died probably 1726, and his widow died 1732 or 1733.

JOHN GILE, JOHN GUILE, JOHN GYLES, or JOHN GILES, probably of Dedham, freeman 10 May 1643, was perhaps of Boston 1654.

His widow gave evidence July 1736, that more than 50 years before she lived with her husband John, at Pemaquid, in a house of Thomas Gyles, so that we may infer he was a younger brother of that sufferer, but spelled his name with a slight variation. He was a witness to the will of Giles Corey, and signed his name Gyles.

MARK GILE, MARK GUILE, MARK GYLES, or MARK GILES, Dover, perhaps son of Matthew Gile. He had Mark and John. He was mortally wounded by the Indians 11 August 1704, when his son was wounded also. Penhallow. Sometimes the spelled is Goyles.

JOHN GILFORD, Hingham, perhaps brother of widow Mary, who died 7 May 1660. He died 26 September 1660. May have been father of Susanna, baptized 2 November 1651; Paul, 14 August 1653; and Priscilla, 22 April 1660, who died within 3 months. Susanna married 18 October 1672, Thomas Jewett.

John Dunton, in his "Life and Errors," commemorated Hannah, as wife of his friend Samuel Phillips, the stationer; Faith married Matthew Middleton; and Mary, who was quite young at the date of his will, perhaps was the only other child. He was, probably master of that ship in which Colonel Cartwright, one of the royal commissioners was going home in the autumn of 1665, taken by the Dutch, related by Morton, Memoirs 315; Hutchinson I. 250; and Hubbard, 585.

He was killed by the Indians at the Falls fight 19 May 1676. His widow married 15 May 1677 Stephen Jennings, and suffered more than once by the same enemy after, being taken four months after her marriage and carried to Canada. Her second husband was killed 22 July 1710 by Indians at Brookfield, though another authority makes it her brother Stephen and Benjamin. In 1708 her son Joseph and the husband of her daughter Captivity suffered, the former wounded, the latter killed by the Indians at the same town. Eleven of this name, of which six were clergymen had been, in 1834, graduates at New England Colleges but none at Harvard.

He was from Hingham, England, where the family is still residing in high esteem. He was freeman 13 March 1639. He married 3 June 1614, Mary Clark, and the old church records in England show baptisms of his children: Mary, 6 August 161; Edward, 26 December 1617; Sarah, 19 January 1622; John, 23 May 1626; and Moses, 11 March 1630. One of these probably died at home, and Lydia, we know was born in England. He removed to Rehoboth 1643, and to Ipswich soon after, where he was 1647; and, after 1652, to Exeter, there died. One of his daughters married it is thought John Leavitt; Lydia, certainly was wife of Daniel Cushing, married 19 June 1645; one is believed to have married John Fabins; and one married a Hersey; but perhaps one or more were born at Hingham; or one may have had two husbands.

EDWARD GILMAN, Ipswich 1647, Exeter 1652, son of the preceding, born in England. He married Abigail Maverick, daughter of Antipas Maverick of Kittery, but whether she was first wife or second is uncertain. Had probably a family yet we are not told more than that he was son-in-law of Richard Smith, had Edward and went for home in 1653 to obtain mill gear, and was lost at sea.

EDWARD GILMAN, Exeter, son probably of the preceding. He married 20 December 1674, Abigail Mandrake; but I know no more.

EZEKIEL GILMAN, perhaps son of the preceding. He was Sergeant of Captain Turner's company 1676 in Philip's war.

He died 1702. His will was of 12 January 1702 and was probated 6 August 1702. Elizabeth married 25 October 1682, Byley Dudley; Mary married Cornelius Conner; and Judith married Thomas Lyford.

MOSES GILMAN, son of the preceding, probably eldest. He had two wives Ann and Elizabeth neither of who have known surnames. He had children (named in his will, made 4 April 1741, probated 28 October 1746), Moses, Abigail, Ann, Judith, Shuah, and Elizabeth.

NICHOLAS GILMAN, Exeter, son of John Gilman. He married 9 June 1697, Sarah Clark, daughter of Nathaniel Clark, I presume, of Newbury, had seven sons of who Farmer names two, Daniel Gilman, born 28 June 1702, grandfather of Governor Gilman and Nicholas Gilman, 18 January 1707, Harvard College 1724, minister of Durham, and head of an honorary line. Of this name, originally written with two ll's, six had been graduates at Harvard in 1834, and seven at the other New England Colleges.

ANTHONY GILPIN, Barnstable. He had probably no wife or children. He may have been only short time in the land. He died last of March or first of April 1635. He gave by will, probated 5 June 1635 to Nathaniel Bacon all his estate in trust for the heirs, who he calls William Hodges of Darnton, Yorkshire and his five sisters.

JOSEPH GILSON, Chelmsford. He married 18 November 1660, Mary Caper. He removed to Groton, had Joseph, born 8 March 1667; Sarah, 25 June 1669; and John, before mentioned and perhaps some earlier.

Only four persons in the Colony paying higher tax in 1633, when he was chosen an Assistant. Died 1 February 1640. He made his will five days before (27 January 1640), names in it wife Frances, no children, nephew and niece, John and Hannah Daman, and nephew Daniel Rumball. His widow died 1649. He built, says Deane, the first windmill in the Colony for grinding corn, which before was pounded.

JOHN GINGELL, JOHN GINGLE, JOHN GENGILL, or JOHN GINGEN, Taunton 1639-43, [Baylies, I. 286. 9.] He removed to Dorchester, thence, perhaps, after many years to Salem, and freeman 1646. He made his will 10 April 1685, at the age of 70, but it was probated not before 24 March 1687. He seems to note no family connection, gives £5 to church of Dorchester, same amount to Mr. Lawson, minister of Salem village (Danvers), if he continued their till church be formed. One John Gingden, as Mr. Paige spells it, took the oath of fidelity 1674, at Pemaquid.

WILLIAM GINGELL, WILLIAM GINGLE, WILLIAM GENGILL, or WILLIAM GINGEN, Westerly 1661.

FRANCIS GIRDLER, Salem, freeman 1678. He had baptized there, though he lived on Marblehead side, George, Francis, Hannah, Benjamin, and Mary, all in July 1678; Ann, August 1680; John, May 1684. The name is made Grodler in Genealogical Registrar VII. 70.

FRANCIS GISBORNE, Warwick. He married 8 June 1671, Mary Wicks, daughter of Job Wicks. He had, perhaps, lived with Captain Samuel Wilbor, for he, in his will seven years later, gave Gisborne one hundred acres on Rhode Island.

EDWARD GISHOP, West Chester, if such a name be possible, appointed by Colony of Connecticut a commissioner in 1663. Trumbull, Colony Record 412.

JOHN GLADING, Newbury. He married 17 July 1666, Elizabeth Rogers, had Susanna, born 6 October 1668; John, 11 October 1670; William, 25 July 1673; Elizabeth, 15 September 1676; Mary, 14 January 1679; and Hannah, 8 November 1681. This name, I think, was Gladwin, and that he who bore it, removed to Bristol, there in 1689 had wife and seven children.

ROBERT GLANFIELD, Salem, mariner. He married 12 July 1665, Lydia Ward, probably daughter of Miles Ward first of the same, had Lydia, born 3 September 1666; Abigail, April 1668; Peter, 7 June 1670; Robert, 27 July 1672; and Sarah, 1675.

JAMES GLASS, Plymouth 1638, apprentice to Henry Coggin of Barnstable, first and, after, to Manasseh Kempton, it is said. He married 31 October 1645, Mary Pontus, daughter of William Pontus, had Hannah, born 2 June 1647, died next year; Wybra, 9 August 1649; Hannah, again, 24 December 1651; and Mary, posthumous 1652.

Wybra married Joseph Bumpus of Middleborough; Hannah married Isaac Billington; and Mary married Samuel Hunt.

JAMES GLASS, Boston. By wife Elizabeth, had William, born 11 January 1688; Robert, 19 September 1692; and Elizabeth, 6 November 1695.

RICHARD GLASS, Pemaquid, took the oath of fidelity 1674. He was of Manchester 1686.

ROGER GLASS, Duxbury. He had been apprentice to John Crocker, and for his ill treatment was discharged in 1639 by the Court, and put out to John Whetcomb of Scituate. By wife Mary, had Elizabeth, James, Emma, Mary, and John. He was freeman 1657, perhaps, brother of first James Glass, and died 169? Amy Glass, perhaps sister of James, or Roger, or both, married 1639, Richard Willis. John Glass, son of Roger Glass, perished in the bootless expedition against, Quebec, 1690.

JOHN GLAZIER, Woburn. By wife Elizabeth George, daughter of John George of Charlestown, had John, born 1663; Zechariah, 20 April 1666; Elizabeth, 4 August 1668; John, 15 December 1669; Ruth, 30 May 1671; Samuel, 5 July 1672; and George, 3 June 1676.

ISAAC GLEASON, Enfield 1684. He had been a soldier in the Falls fight 1676. He was, perhaps, son of Thomas Gleason of Watertown, had at Enfield, Isaac, Thomas, and several daughters. He died 1698.

JOHN GLEASON, Sudbury, son of Thomas Gleason. He married Mary Ross, daughter of James Ross, had Mary, born 1681; and Martha, 1688, in which year he died.

JOSEPH GLEASON, Sudbury, son of Thomas Gleason. He had Joseph, born 1668, died next year; Joseph, again, 18 October 1671; Susanna, 1676; Abigail, 1680; Mary, 1682; Joyce; and Isaac. Barry thinks he had three wives viz. Hannah; Martha, who died 1684; and he married 22 December 1686, Abigail Garfield. He died 1711 at Sudbury.

RICHARD GLEASON, called an original proprietor of Sudbury, 1640, in Genealogical Registrar XIII. 261; yet may be a mistake for the following

THOMAS GLEASON, Watertown, Cambridge, and Charlestown. He had children born in both, the first, Thomas, Joseph, John, as Barry appears to say, at Watertown; and in Cambridge by wife Susanna, had Mary, 31 October 1657, and in my opinion also, either there, or at Charlestown, Isaac and William. Bond thinks, with good reason, he is the man mentioned in Genealogical Registrar III. 401, as swearing fidelity In 1653.

THOMAS GLEASON, Sudbury, son probably eldest, of the preceding. By wife Sarah, had Sarah, born 6 February 1665; Ann; Thomas; Isaac; Patience; Mary, 19 June 1680; and John. His wife died 8 July 1703; and he died 25 July 1705.

WILLIAM GLEASON, Cambridge, perhaps son of Thomas Gleason. By wife Abiah, had William, born 1679; Esther, who died young; and Isaac, baptized 7 December 1690. He died 1691.

CHARLES GLIDDEN, Portsmouth 1665, of Exeter 1677, when he took oath of fidelity,

JOHN GLIDE, a soldier, perhaps from Marlborough, under Captain William Turner, 19 May 1676. He may have lived at Salem, there by wife Mary, had John, born 24 April 1679.

CHARLES GLOVER, Salem 1632, a shipwright, arrived at Boston 16 September 1632 in the Lion, freeman 2 June 1641. He had wife Elizabeth. He removed to Gloucester, and was selectman 1644 and 1645. He had Samuel, born 20 June 1644. His wife died March 1648. He married 12 February 1650, widow Esther Saunders. He removed to Southold, Long Island, there, in 1674, made his will, and died leaving son Samuel executor.

HABAKKUK GLOVER, Boston, son of John Glover of Dorchester, born in England, was a tanner, with good estate freeman 1650. He married 4 May 1653, Hannah Eliot, eldest child of Reverend John Eliot, had Hannah, born 3 July, baptized 3 September 1654, died soon; and Rebecca, 24, baptized 29 July 1655; both at Roxbury; other children John, and Rebecca, who married Thomas Smith of Boston, and second a Clark. He died April 1693. His will of 7 September 1692, probated 24 April 1693 names only wife Hannah and daughter Rebecca Clark.

HENRY GLOVER, Medfield. He died 21 July 1655, and inventory of his estate on which his wife Abigail was administrator is in Volume III. 3], of our Suffolk probable record.

HENRY GLOVER, New Haven 1647, or earlier. He came, probably in the Elizabeth from Ipswich 1634, aged 24, had Mary, baptized June 1641; Mercy, August 1643; Hannah, May 1646; John, 8 October 1648; Abigail, born 29 April 1651, died soon; Abigail, again, born 31 July 1652; and Sarah, 3, baptized 9 December 1655. He was a prominent man, proprietor in 1685, and died 2 September 1689. His widow Elinor died 1 March 1698, aged 85. In letters of Davenport to Winthrop 1655, 3 Massachusetts History Collections X. 9 and 12, his wife is referred to. Perhaps he was the Lieutenant of Southold 1662, that year administered as freeman of Connecticut. Trumbull, Colony Record 388. His daughter Hannah married 24 November 1663, David Ashley; Mercy married 10 May 1664 Moses Mansfield; Sarah married 11 December 1678, John Ball; and Abigail married the same day Daniel Burr. His will, probated October 1689, gives to children of his son John.

JOHN GLOVER, Dorchester 1630. He came, perhaps in the Mary and John, but was a Lancashire man, and engaged in the favor of the plantation before embarking. In 1629 was a Captain, Representative 1637-50, and nearly all the same years selectman. He removed to Boston, was Assistant 1652 and 53, and died early next year 1654. His will of 11 April 1653, has codicil of 26 January 1654, and probated 9 February 1654, recites that he had given a year before to son Thomas his message at Rainhill in Lancaster, England "as competent jointure to Rebecca now his wife with who he is to have a considerable portion." He had promised son Nathaniel £400; had given Habakkuk half a new dwelling-house and pits and accommodation for tanning equal to £400, Province for wife Ann, sons John, and Pelatiah, born September 1636; all of which except the last two, I think he had brought from England. He had no daughters.

JOHN GLOVER, Cambridge, son of Reverend Josse Glover, born in England, Harvard College 1650, in 1651 was living in England. He had a degree of M.D. at Aberdeen, and probably never came again to our side of the ocean.

JOHN GLOVER, Boston, son of first John Glover, Harvard College 1651, (unless this distinction belonged to a New Haven gentleman), a merchant who had perhaps, lived at Swanzey 1683. At Boston he died and was buried 25 September 1696. In his will names wife Elizabeth Andrew, probably daughter of John Andrew, but no other relations. Styles himself gentleman who may seem to support his right to the College honorary. Yet the careful History of Dorchester does not claim him.

JOHN GLOVER, Boston. By wife Mary, had Hannah, born 5 April 1659 and John, born 1 February 1661, may be the same as preceding.

JOHN GLOVER, New Haven, perhaps son of Henry Glover, yet strangely regarded by Professor Kingsley in letter to me, as the graduate of Harvard 1651. He died 29 January 1680, leaving good estate, but had Hannah, born 10 October 1672; John, 20 November 1674; Elizabeth, 23 February 1667; and Mehitable, 1 May 1679.

JOHN GLOVER, Salem. He married 2 January 1660, Mary Guppy, daughter of John Guppy of the same, had John, born 29 August 1661; William, 15 March 1664; Mary, 1 May 1666; Sarah, July 1668; Hannah, 24 June 1670; Benjamin, 28 March 1674; perhaps Jonathan, April 1677; and Ebenezer, 13 or 18 April 1685. His will of 19 April 1635, probated 13 May 1635, mentioned widow Mary, son John, and other children not named.

JOHN GLOVER, Barnstable, son of Nathaniel Glover of Dorchester. He went with his mother to Barnstable after her marriage, and he died 25 August 1690, aged 35.

JONATHAN GLOVER, Salem, son of John Glover of the same. He married Abigail Henderson, perhaps daughter of Archibald Henderson, had Abigail, born 23 November probably 1699; Mary, 18 January 1701; Jonathan, 14 December 1702; Benjamin, 7 September 1704; Joseph, 27 June 1706; and David, 9 January perhaps 1709.

JOSSE GLOVER, rector. It is said, of Sutton, in Surry. He made contract 7 June 1638, with Stephen Day of Cambridge, England to come over with wife, children, and servant in the John of London, at expedition of Glover, his design being to set up a printing press here. He died on the passage, and his widow Elizabeth married Henry Dunster, after the first President of Harvard College. His eldest son Roger was a Captain killed in the civil war at Edinburg, it is said. John, above mentioned, is the only other son; but three daughters were fixed in our country; Elizabeth wife of Adam Winthrop, who died early; Sarah, wife of Deane Winthrop; and Priscilla, wife of John Appleton. Sometimes he is called Jesse; by President Quincy and many others, Joseph; but the stranger name prevails. Of course, he has no claim to be inserted in these pages, as inhabitant of New England where he never came, but eminently are his righteous intention to be honorary and his relation to our country by his children. Marriage and his own death on the ocean would make omission inexcusable.

NATHANIEL GLOVER, Dorchester, son of first John Glover, born in England. He married May Smith, the children brought from Warrington in a pannier, to embark at Bristol, as told by a creditable tradition, daughter of John Smith, commonly known as Quartermaster, because he had service in the Netherlands in that capacity, had Nathaniel; John, born 1655; and Ann. He was freeman 1654, selectman 1655 and 56. He died 21 May 1657. Ann married 11 July 1673, William Rawson. His widow married 15 March 1660, Thomas Hinckley, after Governor of Plymouth.

NATHANIEL GLOVER, Dorchester, son of the preceding, freeman 1678, was Captain 1687. He married Hannah Hinckley, daughter of Thomas Hinckley, Governor of Plymouth Colony who died 20 August 1730, as the gravestone at Dorchester has it, but making her years less by two than truth, which is very unusual occurrence. He had Hannah, born 3 December 1681, who married it is said, at Marblehead, but died at Boston, 1 July 1749.

PELATIAH GLOVER, Springfield, son of first John Glover, born at Dorchester 1637, or 39. He was educated at Harvard but left the College without graduating 20 May 1660. He married Hannah Cullick, daughter of Captain John Cullick, had Samuel, born 28 November 1661, who died 24 July 1683, unmarried; John, 1 July 1663, died in two years; Pelatiah, 27 January 1666; Ann, 21 August 1668, died 1690, unmarried and Mary, 17 April 1672. He was second minister of Springfield, ordained 18 June 1661. His wife died 1689, and he died 29 March 1692. Pelatiah, who had family in Springfield, and Mary, who married 7 November 1693, John Haynes of Hartford, outlived the father. Sprague, 18.

RALPH GLOVER, Dorchester, required to be administered freeman 19 October 1630, having then prefix of respect in the record and so may be presumed to have come in the fleet with Winthrop. He died before July 1633, and his estate was administered by Thomas Mayhew, so that we may suppose he had lived at Watertown.

SAMUEL GLOVER, Southold, Long Island, son of Charles Glover. By wife Sarah, had seven children of which the eldest was Samuel. He was living 1708.

STEPHEN, GLOVER Gloucester 1658, brother perhaps of the preceding. He married 7 October 1663, Ruth Stephens, daughter of William Stephens, perhaps as second wife, had a child born 2 August 1664, died in 3 days (5 August 1664), and his wife died in few more (August 1664). He was selectman 1659, 1661, and from 1669-1686. He died 10 December 1686. His will names only Sargents, his friends, and he gave all his property to Nathaniel, son of William Glover requiring that he should be "bred up to learn" so that I presume him to be either the grandson of 1707, or his nephew.

THOMAS GLOVER, Dorchester, eldest son probably of first John Glover, artillery company 1642, lived in London 1661, and may well be thought to have ended his days in England where he was well married. Six of this name had, in 1834, been graduates at Harvard and four at other New England Colleges.

GOADBY JOHN, a youth of 16, embarked at London, early in April 1635, in the Hopewell, Captain Bundock; but though his family name has not reached me here, it may exist in the old country.

JOSEPH GOAD, or JOSEPH GOARD, Roxbury, son of Richard Goad, was of Moseley's company in December 1675, lived few years before 1679 at Hadley. He married 23 March 1681, Ann Chaplin, had Ann, born 27 August 1682; Sarah, 19 April 1684, died in few months; Mary, 27 March 1687; and Sarah, again, 27 December 1689. He died 12 August 1691.

RICHARD GOAD, or RICHARD GOARD, Roxbury, came in the Elizabeth and Ann, perhaps, the name slightly varied, 1635, aged 17. He married 30 November 1639, Phebe Howes, had Hannah, born June 1641; John, both baptized 1 July 1643; Mary, 23 June 1644; Phebe, 14 March 1646; Joseph, 19 September 1647, died at 8 months; Sarah, 25 March 1649; Joseph, again, 13 April 1651; Lydia, 27 February 1653; Benjamin, 3 December 1654, died soon, and the ancient official transcription at Boston, as given in Genealogical Registrar XI. 330, takes the birth 27 November 1654 and burial 31 October 1655, and Benjamin, again, 7 September 1656. This last was executed 2 April 1674, and Danforth, the minister of his parents, preached an appropriate discourse on the following Sunday. See Sect. Rawson's letter to Winthrop 3 Mass History Collections X. 98, and Thomas, History . 274. What day and month died, I know not; but the unhappy father lived to 29 September 1683.

THOMAS GOAD, or THOMAS GOARD, a youth of 15, came in the Abigail, 1636, perhaps as servant to John Winthrop the younger.

DONALD GOBAN, if the name be not mistaken, Boston 1684, member of the Scots Charitable Society.

JOHN GOBLE, Concord, with son, John, followed their minister Reverend John Jones, September 1644 to Fairfield.

DANIEL GOBLE, also, executed 26 September 1676, for murder of three friendly Indians. Such was the hatred borne to the red race, indiscriminate by some, and the strict, impartial administration of the government not followed always in our days. Daniel was perhaps uncle of the other offender, and Stephen had children born at Concord, by wife Hannah, Hannah, 3 November 1666; Daniel, 21 March 1669; John, 20 July 1671; and Elsey, 1673. His will, made six days before (20 September 1676) his execution names them all.

THOMAS GOBLE, Charlestown, after few years was of Concord. He had wife Alice Mousall, perhaps wife of Ralph Mousall. He was freeman 3 September 1634. He had three sons and three daughters of which Mary was, we know baptized 27 February 1636; Sarah, 27 May 1638; Daniel, 18 July 1641. He died December 1657. His will of 30 November 1657 makes wife Alice executor, names daughter Sarah, unmarried, and Thomas and Stephen, sons of his son Thomas.

THOMAS GOBLE, Charlestown, son of the preceding, removed probably to Concord, was freeman 1690. By wife Ruth, had Thomas, who outlived his father; Stephen, perhaps the murderer; Robert, who died young; Mary; Ruth, born 4 August 1663; and Abigail, 19 January 1669. He died 22 November 1690.

BENJAMIN GODDARD, Cambridge, son of William Goddard of Watertown. He died at Charlestown 24 October 1748. He had baptized at Charlestown, Nathaniel, 12 March 1693, as Deacon Hastings in the record testate; Benjamin, born 1705; Martha; John, May 1709; and Thomas, 1720. He died 27 November 1737.

EDWARD GODDARD, Watertown, youngest son of William Goddard of the same. He married June 1697, Susanna Stone, daughter of the second Simon Stone, had Edward, born 4 May 1698; Susanna, 25 February 1700; Simon, 18 February 1702; Benjamin, 15 August 1704; David Goddard, 26 September 1706, Harvard College 1731, minister of Leicester. He removed to Boston, had William, 22 March 1709, died at two months; Mary, 4 June 1711, died at two months; Ebenezer, 18 November 1712, died at one month; Ebenezer, again, 17 January 1714. He removed to Framingham, was Representative 8 years, selectman longer; and town clerk 18 years. He died 9 February 1754, his wife died 5 days before (4 February 1754).

JAMES GODDARD, Brookline, son of Joseph Goddard. He married Mary Woodward, daughter of Thomas Woodward, had Sarah, born 2 October 1714; James, 22 March 1717; Elizabeth, 8 May 1718; William, 1 October 1721; Marmaduke, 3 May 1726; Joseph, 30 August 1727; Thomas, 13 October 1728, died young; Tryphena, 20 January 1730; and William, again, 14 August 1731. He died 1734. His widow died 1765.

JOHN GODDARD, Dover 1631, sent by Mason for his plantation. Had John, Benjamin, and three daughters married to John Gilman, Arthur Bennet, and James Thomas. He died 1660, leaving widow Welthea, who married a Simmons, was born it is said, 1620, and living 1705.

JOHN GODDARD, Dover, son of the preceding in the part now Durham. He died about 1675, without wife or children.

JOHN GODDARD, Brookline, youngest brother of James Goddard. He married 1725, Lucy Seaver, who died early, without children. He next married 4 September 1729, Hannah Jamison, widow of Jonathan Stone, daughter of Samuel Jamison, had John, born 28 May 1730; Samuel, 13 July 1732; Hannah, 17 July 1736; and Joseph, 5 December 1740. He removed to Worcester, and died 26 June 1785.

JOSEPH GODDARD, had grant of land at Deerfield 1687 or 88, but did not live there. He was of Boston, in that part now Brookline, son of William Goddard of Watertown, born in England. He married 25 May 1680, Deborah Treadway, daughter of Nathaniel Treadway, who died 8 June 1714, had Deborah, born 19 June 1693, being the sole entry on the record. But he before had Elizabeth, born 8 January 1681; Joseph, 7 November 1682; these in Watertown, James; Robert,1694; and John,1699. He died 25 July 1728. His was that most beautiful farm still enjoyed by descendants.

JOSEPH GODDARD, Brookline, eldest son of the preceding. He had wife and daughter besides three sons of who two died young, and the other went to New London. But we know not names of wife nor children nor the time of death of any. Bond supposes the daughter was Sarah; and that father died early.

JOSIAH GODDARD, Watertown, brother of the first Joseph Goddard. He married 28 January 1696, Rachel Davis, daughter probably of William Davis of Roxbury, had Ebenezer, born 30 October 1696; Rachel, 18 April 1699; Josiah, 12 July 1701; Jane, 14 April 1706, died soon; Samuel, 26 January 1709, died soon; Jane, again, 10 June 1710; Samuel, again, 28 May 1712, died next year; Elizabeth, 18 April 1714; and probably William. He died 14 November 1720. His widow died 28 April 1740.

ROBERT GODDARD, Watertown, son of William Goddard the first, born in London. He married 23 February 1714, Elizabeth Shattuck, daughter of William Shattuck. He had Elizabeth, born 5 November 1714. He died 1716, and the widow married 13 April 1717, Ephraim Angier. She next married 26 April 1726, John Holland. One might doubt that Bond may be wrong in saying (since he married so late) that he was born in London, but the wife was arriving at discreet age before the marriage.

ROBERT GODDARD, Brookline, son of Joseph Goddard. He married 1 September 1717, Mehitable Spring, daughter of Henry Spring, had only Elisha, born 13 July 1719, on the records of Brookline but on records of Roxbury, also, Mehitable, 8 March 1721; Mary, 1 March 1725; and Robert, 28 October 1727. His wife died 18 November 1760, and he had second wife but no other children. Removed to Sutton, and died 8 May 1785.

THOMAS GODDARD, came, in 1635, from Marlborough in Wiltshire, arriving at Boston 3 June 1635, in the James from Southampton, but we are ignorant of anything more.

WILLIAM GODDARD Watertown, came, 1665, from London, later than most of the first people in the respective family that can claim to be the progenitor of the New England race. He had by wife Elizabeth, who came next year, six children of which she lost three, and brought William, born about 1653; Joseph, 1655; and Robert. Here he had Thomas, 8 June 1667, died next month; Benjamin, 17 August 1668; Elizabeth, 22 January 1671, died young; Josiah; and Edward, 24 March 1675. He was a schoolmaster. Died October 1691. His widow died 8 February 1698.

WILLIAM GODDARD, Sherborn, probably of the preceding, born in England. He married 10 December 1685, Leah Fisher, had Elizabeth, born 23 August 1687; William, 18 August 1689, died at 14 years; Sarah, 24 November 693; Abigail, 2 December 1697. He died 6 February 1708. His widow died 10 September 1720, says Barr. Eleven of this name had been graduates at Harvard in 1831.

EDWARD GODFREY, Kittery and York 1630, alderman of the city of Acomenticus, Governor in 1649 of the Province of Maine by delegation from the patentee, under the Gorges patent, but in 1652 became freeman of Massachusetts by voluntary submission. Felt says, he boasted, in 1654, that he had, for 45 years been a promoter of New England, 32 years an adventurer for settling it, and for 24, inhabitant of York, "and the first that ever thought of settling there."

FRANCIS GODFREY, Duxbury 1638, carpenter, removed early to Bridgewater. He died 1669. His will names wife Elizabeth and daughter Elizabeth, wife of John Cary.

GEORGE GODFREY, Eastham. He had George Godfrey, born 2 January 1663; Samuel, 27 January 1665; Moses, 27 January 1667; Hannah, 25 April 1669; Mary, 2 June 1672; Ruth, 1 January 1675; Richard, 11 June 1677; Jonathan, 24 June 1682; and Elizabeth, 10 September 1688.

ISAAC GODFREY, Hampton, son of William Godfrey of the same. He married 15 July 1670, Hannah Meriam, perhaps daughter of George Meriam of Concord; but no child is known.

JAMES GODFREY, Newbury, son of Peter Godfrey. He married 10 February 1700, Hannah Kimball.

JOHN GODFREY, at New London, in 1667, a short time. He may have been, as Farmer says, inhabitant of Andover, and born 1622. But probably was first at Ipswich and Newbury, as he came 1634, in the Mary and John.

JOHN GODFREY, son of Deacon William Godfrey. He married 6 May 1659, Mary Cox, probably daughter of Moses Cox; but I know no more.

PETER GODFREY, Newbury. He married 13 May 1656, Mary Brown, daughter of Thomas Brown, the first white born in the town, had Andrew, born 3 March 1657; Mary, 21 October 1659, died in 2 weeks; Mary, again, 23 January 1661; Margaret, 9 October 1663; Elizabeth, 8 February 1667; Peter, 14 November 1669; Joanna, 16 November 1672; James, 9 March 1677; and Sarah, 7 April 1680. He died 5 October 1697, aged 66. His widow died 14 April 1716, in 81st year not 82nd as in Genealogical Registrar XIV. 168. In a note, Hutchinson II. 216, has strangely mistaken this woman's birthplace and age, but the latter need not be matter of surprise. Margaret married 12 July 1681, Joseph Richardson.

RICHARD GODFREY, Taunton 1652. He married a daughter of John Turner, had Richard, John, and Robert.

RICHARD GODFREY, Taunton, son of the preceding. He married 1 January 1680, Mary Richmond, daughter of John Richmond, had Richard, John, and Joseph. Equally strange and lamentable is it, that a name which has so long predominated at Taunton, should have so little genealogical precision in its details. In his "Ministry of Taunton" Emery, a very diligent inquirer I. 234, gives no dates of birth, marriage or death.

ROBERT GODFREY, Taunton, brother of the preceding. He married 14 January 1685, Hannah Hacket, youngest daughter of Jabez Hacket of the same.

WILLIAM GODFREY, Watertown, freeman 13 May 1640. By wife Margaret, had Isaac, born 15 April 1639; Sarah, 15 May 1642. He removed to Hampton, and was a Deacon. He died 25 March 1671. His will, made that year (1671) names wife Margaret, son Isaac, son-in-law Thomas Webster, son John, probably eldest, and born in England, and daughters Sarah and Deborah. I believe his widow married 14 September 1671, John Sanborn. Deborah married 5 December 1667, John Taylor; and Sarah married 18 August 1670, John Clifford. He had, perhaps married in England the widow.

GEORGE GODING, or GEORGE GODDING, Fairfield 1651, may be the same as Godwin.

HENRY GODING, or HENRY GODDING, Watertown. He married 7 April 1663, Elizabeth Beers, perhaps daughter of Anthony Beers, had Timothy, born 8 May 1664; and Elizabeth, 8 November 1667, who married 8 January 1690, John Morse.

RICHARD GODING, or RICHARD GODDING, Gloucester 1666. He died 1709. This name may be the same as Goodwin or Godwin.

FRANCIS GODSON, Lynn 1634. Perhaps the family name may be the same as the preceding.

GEORGE GOE, Dover, found by Mr. Quint to have been taxed there seven or eight years. French 1669.

HENRY GOE, PETER GOE, and RALPH GOE, fishermen, of which the first and last are said to have been sent to Piscataqua by Mason in 1631, may, I think, be more likely to spell their own names Gee; and Peter to be grandfather of the famous minister of Boston.

ANTHONY GOFFE, Woburn. By wife Sarah, had Joseph, born 1 November 1687, died soon; and James, 3 June 1689, died next day. Perhaps he removed.

EDWARD GOFFE, Cambridge, came from Ipswich in County Suffolk by the Great Hope. He embarked late in 1634, or very early in 1635, with Reverend Thomas Shepard, who left this ship and some months later took another passage from London. He was first at Watertown, certainly had land there 1637. He brought wife Joyce, and children Samuel and Lydia. Here had Nathaniel, born February 1638, who probably died young. His wife died November 1638. He married Margaret Wilkinson, daughter of widow Isabel Wilkinson (who survived him and married 1662, John Witchfield of Windsor). By her, had Deborah, born 15 December 1639; Mary, probably who was buried 23 April 1646; Hannah, 23 March 1644; and Abiah. He was freeman 26 May 1636, Representative 1646 and 1650. He died 26 December 1658, aged 64. A vexatious record in Genealogical Registrar IX. 169, makes Nathaniel born 23 August 1645 by his wife Joyce, who died near seven years before when he was, of course, son of Margaret; besides enriching him with wife Judith, that he never knew. It must always be borne in mind, that the volume from which these transcriptions are printed is only a copy, not original. His will, declared three days before but written 26 June 1657, gives double portion to son, names wife Margaret and her mother deceased, also widow Barnard, mother-in-law of his son and the grandchildren Ann Goffe, and John, Lydia, and Jonathan Sprague, child of John Sprague by his eldest daughter Lydia, married 2 May 1651; Deborah, died 21 November 1660. Hannah married 21 September 1664, John Moore junior, of Windsor; and Abia married 12 October 1664, Henry Wolcott 3d.

JACOB GOFFE, Wethersfield. He married Margery Ingersoll, daughter of John Ingersoll of Westfield, 5 December 1679, had Jacob, born 5 November 1680, died soon; Moses, 10 March 1682, died young; Mabel, 31 October 1690; Mary, 15 November 1693; and Eunice, 27 March 1696. He died 21 October 1697. His widow married Jonathan Buck.

JOHN GOFFE, Newbury, freeman 22 May 1639. He died 9 December 1641. His will, made 5 days before, 4 December 1641, names wife Amy, children only Susan, daughter Hannah. How, whence, or when, he came to our shores is yet unknown. A long prevalent mistake of Gosse of Watertown, freeman of 1631, for this man, was encouraged by the identity of appearance of the names on Colony record no difference can be seen by the most practiced eye. Elizabeth Goffe aged 26, a passenger in the James from London in July 1635, may have been a sister.

JOHN GOFFE, Boston, freeman 1678, member of Second Church. He had baptized there, Hannah, 2 August 1691; Ebenezer, 12 February 1693; Elizabeth, 5 May 1695; Sarah, 13 December 1696; Sarah, again, 11 June 1699; Sarah, again 21 August 1709; and Mary, 15 April 1711. Of these, by my conjecture the first five were of Hannah Sumner, daughter of William Sumner.

PHILIP GOFFE, Wethersfield. He had Jacob, born 1649; Rebecca,1651; Philip,1653; Moses, 1656; and Aaron, 1658. He was aged 28 in 1653, and died 1674.

SAMUEL GOFFE, Cambridge, son of Edward Goffe, came with his father 1635. He married 25 June 1656, Ann Barnard, daughter of daughter of John Barnard of Watertown, had Hannah, born 12 May 1657; Edward, 28 November 1658; Deborah, 22 January 1661, died 27 December 1690; Samuel, 1 January 1663; Lydia, 7 January 1665; John, 11 November 1666; Elizabeth, 6 October 1668, died 15 January 1691; Susanna; Edmund Goffe, Harvard College 1690; Nathaniel, 9 April 1675; and Joseph, 23 May 1677. The wife died April 1679, aged 44. Harris, in Epit. says she was his second wife but this is probably wrong. Mary, perhaps his daughter, married Thomas Trowbridge, and was mother of the learned judge, who, out of regard to his uncle Edmund, his guardian, having no children assumed the name of Goffe for a time, but reassumed the name which was so adorned by him. He took another wife 21 November 1682, but I know not whom. He died 15 January 1706, aged 76.

WILLIAM GOFFE, Hadley, a Major-General in England, a member of the pretentious High Court of Justice, selected by the minority of the Long Parliament to sentence Charles I to death, arrived at Boston 27 July 1660. He stayed short time at Cambridge, and in February 1661 went to New Haven, reached that town 7 March 1661 in company with Lieutenant-General Edward Whalley, whose daughter Frances Whalley he had married. They lived in concealment some years but in October 1664 took up permanent residence at Hadley with Reverend John Russell, where he outlived wife some years, and died about 1679. Dr. Stiles, in his History mistook the gravestone at New Haven of Deputy Governor Matthew Gilbert, marked M.G., 80, for his; but he was, we know buried without any mark at the grave with his father-in-law, at Hadley, more than a hundred miles off, and our fathers probably could not have violated the sanctity and secrecy of their resting-place under an idle pretence of doing honor to their memories. In our own days the remains have been discovered close to the foundation of Russell's house. He was son of Reverend Stephen Goffe of Stanmer, in County Sussex. His three children Elizabeth, Ann, and Frances, if this last be not, as sometimes said, Frederic, remained in England with his excellent wife of which three letters are in print. One in appendix to Hutchinson I. 532; second; in 3 Massachusetts History Collections 1. 60, and third in Hutchinson Collection 432. Very large and impartial story of these regicides is in Hutchinson I. 213-19; and the cool judgment of modern times may ratify what "matchless" Mitchell wrote contemporarily that, since he "had opportunity to look a little into that action, for which these men suffered I could never see that it was justifiable." Perhaps he felt, that putting to death in cold blood the sovereign, with which they had treated on equal terms, as their captive, for several years was a murder, unless excused by necessity; and that cowardly pretence, when needed is easily found.

HENRY GOLDHAM, New Haven, freed from train for we know 1645. He was soon after at Guilford. He had only Susanna, who married the second John Bishop. His will of 9 July 1661, gives some land to Nicholas Munger, called son-in-law, probably son of his wife Frances, and larger part to wife and daughter. The widow died 1671 or 1672.

PETER GOLDING, Boston. By wife Jane, had Mary, born 21 January 1666; and Frances, 22 February 1668. By wife Sarah, had Elizabeth, born 6 October 1673; Windsor, 3 March 1675; Thomas, 23 January 1678; Sarah, 19 August 1679; Jane, 1 January 1684; and Mercy, 8 September 1686. Iin 1685 he called himself 50 years old. He removed about 1690 to Hadley, there lived 3 or 4 years. He had Abigail, born 1691. He removed to Sudbury, and died 11 October 1703, leaving widow Sarah. John Smith, of Hadley married 1691, probably the eldest daughter, though record of the name then is Martha; Daniel Warner married 1704, Sarah; and Chiliab Smith married 1710, Mercy.

WILLIAM GOLDING, Boston, a minister from Bermuda. He was at Boston lecture 6 November 1646, but went soon to London. See Winslow's Salamander; and 3 Massachusetts History Collections II 130-3.

DANIEL GOLDSMITH, Milford. He died there 1684. He was called Captain and was, perhaps, only transient.

JOSHUA GOLDSMITH, Salisbury. He married 14 August 1667, Mary Huntington, daughter of William Huntington. At Amesbury swore allegiance 20 December 1677.

RICHARD GOLDSMITH, Wenham. He removed in 1655 to Chelmsford, a young man. He was killed by lightning 18 May 1673, as particularly told in Remarkable Providences of Increase Mather.

THOMAS GOLDSMITH, Southampton, Long Island 1641, Salem 1643, at least he then had grant of land. He had daughter, and was next year living in the town. In 1673 was, and had long been inhabitant of Southampton. See 3 Massachusetts History Collections X. 88. He married perhaps as second wife Susanna Sheather, daughter of John Sheather of Guilford.

ZACCHEUS GOLDSMITH, Wenham, perhaps brother of Richard Goldsmith, freeman 1685, and after recovering from the usurpation of Andros, sworn again 1690.

HENRY GOLDSTONE, Watertown. He came in the Elizabeth from Ipswich 1634, aged 43, with wife Ann, 45; and children Ann, 18; and Mary, 15. He was of infirm health, 60 as to be excused from training November 1634. He died 25 July 1638, and his widow married John George of Watertown. Ann married 1634, Deacon Henry Bright of Watertown; and Mary married 8 October of same year (1634) Joshua Hewes of Roxbury. He was son of Reverend William Goldstone, vicar of Bedingfield, County Suffolk, and was baptized at Wickham Skeith, says Mr. Somerby, 17 July 1591.

SAMUEL GOLDTHWAIT, Salem, son of Thomas Goldthwait of the same. He married 3 September 1666, Elizabeth Cheever, probably daughter of the celebrated Ezekiel Cheever, had Elizabeth, born 7 December 667, died in few weeks; Samuel, 5 March 1669; Thomas, 14 February 1671, probably died young; Ezekiel, 3 October 1674; Hannah, 9 April 1686; and Thomas, again, 1 March 1689.

THOMAS GOLDTHWAIT, Roxbury 1631, probably came in the fleet the year before, was freeman 14 May 1634. He removed probably 1637, to Salem. With wife Elizabeth, had there baptized Samuel, 20 August 1637; Mehitable, 27 April 1640, who died 3 May 1668, unmarried; and Elizabeth, 20 November 1642, who married September 1660, John King. The name was long kept up in that town; and none has been worse perverted in spelling.

GEORGE GOLDWYER, Salisbury 1650, Dover 1658. He died 12 April 1684, probably at Salisbury. I think his daughter Martha married 30 October 1684, second Robert Pike.

WILLIAM GOLT, or WILLIAM GAULT, Salem, came in the Mary Ann of Yarmouth 1637, aged 29, a cordwainer of Yarmouth, County Norfolk, single man. He had there baptized Deborah, and Sarah, on 10 September 1648. He had eldest daughter Rebecca. He died April 1660. The widow married 22 July following Richard Bishop; and Sarah married December 1665, Henry Colborn.

EDWARD GOOCH, Boston 1685 well spoken of by John Dunton, called him Gouge. He was warden of King's Chapel 1692.

JOHN GOOCH, York, was freeman 1652. Ruth, his wife was in 1640, too free with Reverend George Burdett, from Yarmouth, County Norfolk England, for which she was sentenced to stand in white sheet; but she was probably second wife. Yet in his will of 7 May 1667, probated 12 July 1667 he gives property to wife Ruth, sons John and James, with small portions to grandchildren Elizabeth Donnell, Mary, Hannah, Phebe, Peter, Nathaniel, and Ruth Weare, and Elizabeth Austin. In 1656 John Gooch junior, is named also. James was killed by the Indians September 1676, as says Hubbard, 51; and a daughter of the first John, married probably Peter Weare.

ROBERT GOOCH, Pemaquid. He died 1667, or, at least, the inventory returned by his widow Lydia, bears date 25 September 1667. The spelling varies to Gouch, Gouge, and Gutch. It has been long prevalent in parts of Maine.

SARAH GOOD, Salem, one of the first sufferers under the cruel infatuation against witches, July 1692. See Goode.

ISAAC GOODALE, Salem, perhaps son of Robert Goodale. He married 25 January 1669, Patience Cook, had Isaac, born 29 May 1670; Esther, 17 March 1672; Zechariah, 15 May 1675; Abraham, 3 May 1677, died in a few days; Abigail, November 1678; and another son who died in few weeks posthumous without doubt, for the father died in October 1679.

JOSEPH GOODALE, Boston. He married before 1681, Sarah Rix, daughter of Thomas Rix.

NEHEMIAH GOODALE, Lynn. He married 30 July 1673, Hannah Haven, daughter of Richard Haven, had Martha, born 4 May 1674; Joseph, 24 March 1677; Mary, 17 October 1686; and perhaps others. His widow Hannah lived about 20 years at Framingham, died at the end of December 1726.

RICHARD GOODALE, Newbury 1638, was from Yarmouth, County Norfolk. He removed to Salisbury, among first settlers 1639 or 1640. He had wife Dorothy, who died 27 January 1666 children Ann, who married William; Allen; and Richard of Boston. He died 1666, says Coffin. The same writer gives in his list Elizabeth Goodale also from Yarmouth, who died 8 April 1647, at Newbury, having children Susanna, who married Abraham Toppan; and Joanna married John Oliver, both before 1644. I presume she was his mother. A widow Mary Goodale, died at Salisbury 3 May 1683.

RICHARD GOODALE, Boston, mariner, one of the founders of the First Baptist Church. Perhaps with wife Mary, in Boston 1665, had Richard, born 29 August 1655, and Mary, who married John Ewell. He may be the man who died at Middletown 1676, had been only short time there; or

RICHARD GOODALE, son of the preceding, who married Mary Cole, daughter of Henry Cole of Middletown.

ROBERT GOODALE, Salem 1637. He came in the Elizabeth from Ipswich 1634, aged 30, with wife Catharine, 28; and children Mary, 4; Abraham, 2; and Isaac, l year, had baptized there, though I find not name of husband or wife in Felt's list of church members, one child 31 May 1640; Jacob, 9 January 1642; and Hannah, 6 August 1645.

He married 30 June 1665, Elizabeth Beacham, daughter of Edward Beacham, had Zechariah, born 9 February 1668; Samuel, 3 December 1669; Joseph, 23 September 1672; Mary, 27 November 1674; Thomas, 30 December 1676; Abraham, 7 November 1678; John, 10 August 1681; and Benjamin, 4 July 1687. Sometimes the name seems Goodall or Goodell. It was long in esteem at Salem.

THOMAS GOODE, or THOMAS GOOD, came in the Bevis from Southampton 1638, aged 24, may have set down at Salem, here, 1640. Abigail, perhaps his wife, was administrated of the church. Among the sufferers for the supposed crime of witchery 1692, Sarah, wife of William Good, called Elizabeth by Hutchinson II. 26, an "old woman, who was bedridden" was executed 19 July 1692; and Deborah, imprisoned from 12 April to 10 December 1692 when happily the delusion began to evaporate.

SAMUEL GOODENHOUSE, Boston, 9. I presume, son of the preceding. By wife Bethia, had John, born 3 October 1691. Perhaps he removed to New York, or elsewhere. The name is not seen 1695.

EDMUND GOODENOW, EDMUND GOODNOW, or EDMUND GOODENOUGH, Sudbury. He came in the Confidence from Southampton 1638, a husbandman of Dunhead, in Wiltshire, aged 27, with wife Ann, and John and Thomas, their sons, and servant Richard Sanger. He had here Hannah, born 28 November 1639, if the record be not wrong, as probably it is; Mary, 25 August 1640; Sarah, 17 March 1643; Joseph, 10 July 1645; and Edmund. He was freeman 13 May 1640, Representative 1645 and 1650, in Johnson's Wonderwork Providence is honored as leader of the military. He died 1676. Thomas probably died young; Hannah married 29 April 1656, James Pendleton; Sarah married John Kettle.

EDMUND GOODENOW, EDMUND GOODNOW, or EDMUND GOODENOUGH, Sudbury, youngest son of the preceding. He married 1688, Dorothy Mann, had Dorothy, born 1689. His wife died 2 April 1689. By wife Rebecca, he had Sarah, born 1 March 1696; John, 1698; Rebecca, 1 July 1702; Ebenezer, 4 April 1704; Cornelius, 4 December 1706; Jonathan, 1 March 1707; Dorothy, May 1710; David, 10 March 1713; and Mercy, 13 March 1715. He died about 1727.

JOHN GOODENOW, JOHN GOODNOW, or JOHN GOODENOUGH, Sudbury, eldest brother of first Edmund Goodenow. He came in the same ship called of Semley, in Wiltshire, husbandman, aged 42, with wife Jane, and Lydia and Jane, their daughters. He was freeman 2 June 1641, a selectman 1644, and he died 28 March 1654. His will was nuncupative. His widow Jane died 15 July 1666. In her will of 7 July 1662, names daughter Jane, wife of Henry Wight of Dedham, and their children John, Joseph, David, Benjamin, and another then lately born, yet does not mention the other daughter who Barry says married Andrew Duning, but perhaps she was daughter.

By wife Mary, had Hannah, born 1656; Mary, 1659; Edmund, 1661; Sarah, 1663, died young; Sarah, again, 1666; Elizabeth, 1672; Joseph, 1674; Ebenezer, 1677; Lydia, 1678; and 19 Mercy, 1680.

NATHANIEL GOODENOW, NATHANIEL GOODNOW, or NATHANIEL GOODENOUGH, perhaps son of Thomas Goodenow. He came in the Speedwell from London, aged 16, in 1656, arriving at Boston 27 July 1656. But I have only the slight grounds for my conjecture that Thomas Goodenow, aged 20, came in the same voyage; and the strong one, that this is the child Thomas, of one year who accompanied his father in 1638, and had been sent home for him.

SAMUEL GOODENOW, SAMUEL GOODNOW, or SAMUEL GOODENOUGH, Marlborough, son of Thomas Goodenow. By wife Mary, had Thomas, born 1672. He was freeman 1690, and he died 1717.

THOMAS GOODENOW, THOMAS GOODNOW, or THOMAS GOODENOUGH, Sudbury, younger brother of John Goodenow, elder of Edmund Goodenow. He came in the same ship with them 1638, aged 30, called in the clearance of Shaftsbury, which is a borough of Dorset, in the border of Wilts, and but three and five miles from the respective homes of his brothers. He brought wife Jane, son Thomas, aged one year, and sister Ursula. The women's ages are not given in the custom house record but Ursula we are told by Barry, died at Sudbury, 23 April 1653. He was freeman 10 May 1643. By wife Jane, had here Mary, born 25 August 1640; Abigail, 11 March 1642; Susanna, 20 February 1643, died soon; Sarah, 20 January 1644, died at 10 years; Samuel, 28 February 1646, before mentioned; Susanna, again, 21 December 1647; Elizabeth, who died 28 December 1653; and Jane, who, in 1672, was wife of Christopher Bannister of Marlborough; but of the last two I am unable to fix priority. He had second wife Joanna in 1662, says Barry, and he died late in 1663. Possibly his son Thomas was sent home in 1655, on other business, but he may have gone to bring 1656. Nathaniel, who may have been born shortly before the parents came away from England and left to the care of friends of the family.

THOMAS GOODFELLOW, Hartford, Porter says, was there before 1639. He had a lot, but did not settle, either forfeited or sold the same. He died at Wethersfield, 25 November 1685, leaving widow Mary Grant, eldest daughter of Peter Grant, married about 1681.

JOSEPH GOODHUE, Ipswich, eldest son of first Deacon William Goodhue, freeman 1674, Representative 1672 and 73, was selectman, and a Deacon. He married 13 July 1661, Sarah Whipple, youngest daughter of John Whipple, who died 23 July 1681, bore ten children of which in an agreeable writing left by her, that has been often printed, and last in 1850. Seven are named, Joseph, born 13 May 1662, died young; Joseph, again; Mary; William, 1666; Sarah; John, 1679; and Susanna.

He married next, 4 July 1692, widow Mercy Clark, had Samuel, 5 April 1696. He died 2 September 1697, leaving widow who married John Hovey, senior of Topsfield, and she died April 1731. In a family genealogy I find the names of other three children of first wife (not named by their mother) to be Margery, Elizabeth, and Hannah. The youngest son lived to 7 November 1785. Honorable Benjamin Goodhue, Harvard College 1766, born at Salem, 20 September 1748, who was a member of the first house of Representatives under the Federal Constitution and Senator of U.S. 1796-1800, and died 28 July 1814, was a great grandson of Joseph Goodhue, and father of Jonathan Goodhue, the late princely merchant of New York whose son Henry C Goodhue, Harvard College 1846, died so prematurely 1847.

NICHOLAS GOODHUE He came from London in the James 1635, aged 60, with Jane, probably his wife 58, a cloth worker, of which no more is ever heard. Perhaps he was father of William Goodhue, and a Kentish man, and may have lived at Ipswich.

He next married 1683, Bethia Grafton, daughter of Joseph Grafton, and formerly wife of Captain Lothrop of the flower of Essex, who died 6 December 1686.

He died 1699, aged 86. Mary married 23 February 1668, Thomas Giddings.

JOHN GOODMAN, Plymouth 1620, passenger of the Mayflower, a single man, had shares in the division of lands (unless the record be wrong), in the spring of 1624, but Prince, following Bradford, who could not be mistaken, marks him as one who died before March 1621. We, however, know no more.

JOHN GOODMAN, Sudbury. He married 19 September 1656, Mary Axtell, perhaps daughter of Thomas Axtell, had Hannah, born 15 December 1657.

He removed to Boston, here four of his children in 1688, being possessed with a spirit of childish mischief sadly perplexed and befooled Cotton Mather, so as to cause Mrs. Glover, the washerwoman, to be convicted of dealing with the devil, and hanged as in his Magnalia is told. By these infant instructors the learned author was adequately prepared for the honors he gained in the doleful tragedies of 1692, enacted at Salem. several other children he had, as perhaps a second John; Benjamin, born 1683; Hannah, 1687; and Elizabeth, 1694. He died 21 January 1712. His widow married 1714, John Pearson, and died 26 September 1728. Martha married 1693, Ebenezer Clough.

NATHANIEL GOODING, NATHANIEL GOODWIN, or NATHANIEL GOODWYN, Reading, perhaps brother of the preceding, freeman 1679, and Representative 1689. He died 23 August 1693.

NATHANIEL GOODING, NATHANIEL GOODWIN, or NATHANIEL GOODWYN, Hartford, son of Ozias Gooding, freeman of Connecticut 1662.

He married 1687, Mehitable Porter, daughter of the first Samuel Porter of Hadley, had Hezekiah, Isaac, Abraham, Stephen, Eleazer, Mehitable, Benedict, Joanna, Ruth, and Alice. His wife died 6 February 1726. Of this branch was the distinguished genealogist, Nathaniel Gooding, born 5 March 1782.

OZIAS GOODING, OZIAS GOODWIN, or OZIAS GOODWYN, Hartford, one of the first settlers, was born about 1596, as inferred from his swearing in 1674, that his age was 78, brother of Elder William Gooding. He died about April 1683, leaving sons William Gooding, born in England about 1629; and Nathaniel Gooding, about 1637; besides daughter Hannah Gooding, who married William Pitkin, and lived to 1724, aged 86.

RICHARD GOODING, RICHARD GOODWIN, or RICHARD GOODWYN, Amesbury. He married 14 November 1677, Mary Fowler of Salisbury.

WILLIAM GOODING, WILLIAM GOODWIN, or WILLIAM GOODWYN, Cambridge. He came to Boston in the Lion, arriving 16 September 1632, freeman 6 November 1632, and Representative in first General Court of Deputy in Massachusetts 1634. He removed next year or more probably in May 1636, to Hartford. There he was in highest esteem, ardent friend of famous Hooker, and after his death dissatisfied with Stone, upon controversy of many years before and after 1654. He removed to Hadley with large part of the congregation about 1659, thence, about 1670 to Farmington. He was Ruling Elder both at Hartford and Hadley. He died 11 March 1673, leaving widow Susanna, who died 17 May 1676. His only child Elizabeth married John Crow.

He had Elizabeth, born 24 April 1681; Sarah, 1 April 1683; Mary, 8 December 1685; Susanna, 24 February 1689, died at 14 years; Rebecca, 15 January 1691; Hannah, 10 April 1695; Violet, 18 October 1696; William, 9 July 1699; Rachel, 18 January 1702, died in a week; and Susanna, again, 12 August 1704, who lived to 1793. Of this name five had, in 1834, been graduates at Harvard six at Yale, and nine at other New England Colleges.

ISAAC GOODWRIGHT, Kittery 1686, called cousin i.e. nephew in the will of Christopher Adams, in which he gives him two co wives.

ANDREW GOODYEAR, New Haven, probably son of Stephen Goodyear, nominated for freeman 1669.

JOHN GOODYEAR, New Haven, perhaps brother not probably son of Stephen Goodyear of the same. He married 26 January 1683, Abigail Gibbard, daughter of William Gibbard, had Stephen, born 8 May 1684; John; Nathaniel; Obedience; Esther; Theophilus; Abigail, 1697; and Andrew. He died 1703; and his widow died 1717.

STEPHEN GOODYEAR, New Haven 1638, was probably a London merchant. Here chosen Assistant and, in 1641, Deputy Governor in which office he served until he went home. His wife embarked late in January 1645 in Lamberton's ship for London, was lost with all the rest of many passengers as the vessel was never heard of. He married Lamberton's widow, went home 1656 or 57, and died soon at London, leaving here Mary, born of first wife before coming to our country, who married Thomas Lake of Boston; Elizabeth; Hannah, who married 29 October 1656, Samuel Wakeman; Stephen, baptized August 1641; Lydia, June 1645, mentioned in Lake's will; Andrew, 8 April 1649; John, born of second wife March 1651, who was a proprietor at New Haven 1685, of which I know no more; and Esther, born 12 May 1654, who married 10 August 1682, Nathan Smith.

DANIEL GOOKIN, Cambridge, born in Kent, England, passed many, probably fourteen years in Virginia from 1630, whither he went with his father perhaps of the same name, who had grant in that Colony 1620. He came to Boston in a ship 20 May 1644 with other passengers flying from the Indians massacre. On the Sunday following was administered of our Boston church and freeman 29, in both records called Captain. On 7 September 1644, May, his wife, was administered of Boston church, yet we may be sure he lived at Roxbury, for there was born his daughters Elizabeth, 14, baptized 30 March 1645; and Hannah, baptized 23 May 1646, died in few weeks and the town record omitted birth. Soon after he removed to Cambridge, of which he was Representative 1649, and speaker 1651, Assistant 1652 to the Andros usurpation 1686, except in 1676, when at the May election he had the honor of being turned out for his noble care of the friendly Indians in the then raging war; and Major-General 1681. He died 19 March 1687, aged 75. In 1655 he went home for a short visit of private business, but was taken off by Oliver, who sent him back to induce our fathers to colonize Jamaica, which was just then added to his dominion. Of course his mission was fruitless, and he went in 1657 once more to England and came hither again in 1660, by the ship that brought the regicides Whalley and Goffe, arriving at Boston 27 July 1660. Those self-exiled men he befriended, perhaps without approving their course; for he was loyal enough to dedicate his History Collections to the King. Besides the children above mentioned of which Elizabeth married 23 May 1666, Reverend John Eliot, junior, as his, second wife and next married Edmund Quincy, and died 30 November 1700, he had, born at Cambridge, Daniel, who died 3 September 1649, few months old; Daniel Gookin, again, 12 July 1650, Harvard College 1669; Samuel, 21 April 1652; Solomon, 20 June, who died 16 July 1654; Nathaniel Gookin, 22 October 1656, Harvard College 1675, and Mary, older than any, which may even have come from Virginia, who married 8 June 1670, Edmund Batter of Salem, as his second wife. He had himself second wife Hannah Tyng, widow of Habijah Savage, daughter of Edward Tyng, of who in his will, 13 August 1685, he speaks with great tenderness, who died 28 and was buried 31 October 1688, aged 48.

DANIEL GOOKIN, Sherborn, eldest survived son of the preceding, long labored for instructing the Indians with apostle Eliot, freeman 1676. He was ordained 26 March 1685, the first minister at Sherborn of which Sewall's good account is in Genealogical Registrar IV. 80. He died 8 January 1718. By first wife Elizabeth Quincy, daughter of Edmund Quincy, married 1681, he had Daniel, born 7 July 1682. By second wife married 4 October 1682, whose name is not seen, had Mary, 16 October 1686; Edmund, 31 March 1688; and Elizabeth, 20 May 1690. He married another wife 21 July 1692, Bethia Collicott, daughter of Edward Collicott, had Bethia, born 7 October 1693, died within 5 months; Nathaniel, 5 June 1695, died at two months and Richard, 12 July 1696. The London company for propagating the gospel contributed to his support. His sons Edmund and Richard had family.

NATHANIEL GOOKIN, Cambridge, brother of the preceding, fifth and youngest son of Major-General Daniel Gookin. He was ordained 15 November 1682, successor of Urian Oakes. He married Hannah Savage, daughter of Habijah Savage, had Nathaniel Gookin, born 15 April 1687, Harvard College 1703, the minister of Hampton, who married 21 December 1710, Dorothy Cotton, daughter of his predecessor Reverend John Cotton, and became the head of a long and honored line, but died two hundred years after the date given in the grave stone tale, Genealogical Registrar XI. 78; Habijah, 23 January 1690, died at six months, and Hannah, who married 10 August 1711, Vincent Carter. He died 7 August 1692, less than 36 years old. His widow died 14 May 1702, aged 34.

SAMUEL GOOKIN, Cambridge, brother of the preceding, was made sheriff of Middlesex by the patriots 1689, was rather more energetic than discreet in magnifying his office. He had Samuel, born 11 November 1681; and two other children referred to in the will of the grandfather, besides Nathaniel, 16 February 1686.

FRANCIS GOOLE, Duxbury 1643. At Braintree by wife Rose, had Samuel, born 6 February 1659.

ISAAC GOOSE, Boston, freeman 1690, in which year his wife Mary died aged 42. He was constable 1673, but fuller account may be read under Vergoose.

JOHN GOOSE, Charlestown, perhaps son of William Goose. He married 10 August 1666, Sarah Trerice, daughter probably of Nicholas Trerice, had John, who died 20 June 1668; another John, baptized 1 July 1677; Mary, next Sunday; and Rebecca, 1 August 1680. He had first married 18 June 1665, Mary Robinson, as I suppose, at Salem, and she died 9 November 1665. His wife died November 1686.

WILLIAM GOOSE, Salem 1637, was of Charlestown 1658. He married Susanna Jones, daughter of Thomas Jones of Charlestown who died 4 May 1674. He had Thomas, born 5 June 1664; John, baptized 16 May 1669, though unless we know how many years old he was, we might guess him to be son of another generation, perhaps others. He died 1666, says Felt, but erroneous for administration on his estate was taken 1664. His death was ten years earlier, and the town had to provide for his insane widow. His widow married a Jackson. His daughter Mary married 7 March 1660, Thomas Woodward.

EDMUND GORDON, a passenger in the Susan and Ellen 1635, aged 18, of which no more is heard.

NICHOLAS GORDON, New Hampshire 1689. Five of this name had been graduates at Harvard In 1834, three each at Yale and Dartmouth College, and five at other New England Colleges, yet none seem derived from early inhabitants.

JOHN GORE, Roxbury 1635. He brought wife Rhoda, perhaps daughter Mary and son John, born 23 May 1634. In England had Obadiah, born 27 June 1636, died at 10 years of consumption; Abigail, 5 July or August 1641, died 13 or 30 April 1642; Abigail, again, 5, baptized 7 May 1643; Hannah, 15, baptized 18 May 1645; Obadiah, again, baptized 25 March 1649, died 3 September 1653; twin children un-baptized, died 11 June 1651; besides Samuel, of which I find not record of birth or baptism. He was freeman 18 April 1637, artillery company 1638, and he died 2 June 1657. His will of 22 May 1657 remarks that eldest son John, and daughter Mary Mylam, wife I think, of Humphrey Mylam, had record advance from his estate but provides for Samuel, Abigail, and Hannah. This last married 13 June 1677, Ralph Bradhurst. His widow Rhoda married Lieutenant John Remington.

JOHN GORE, Roxbury, son of the preceding, born in England. He married (very late in his days) 31 May 1683, Sarah Gardner, perhaps daughter of Peter Gardner, had John, born 27 February baptized 2 March 1684; Sarah, 24, baptized 30 August 1685; perhaps Hannah, 14 February 1688; Ebenezer, 7 November 1689; Abigail, 15 February 1692, died next year; Abigail, again, 26 October 1693; Samuel, 11 September 1695; died soon; Samuel, again, 15 May 1697, died soon; and Samuel, again, 1 September 1699. He died 26 June 1705. The son John Gore was probably Harvard College 1702, unless the scholar were his cousin born the summer before him. The name was perpetuated by the son of one

SAMUEL GORE, Roxbury, brother of the preceding, carpenter. He married 28 August 1672 Elizabeth Weld, daughter of John Weld, had Abigail, born 29 May 1673, died soon; John, baptized 10 November 1678, died 1679; Samuel, 20, baptized 23 October 1681; John, again, 22 June 1683; Thomas, 16, baptized 22 August 1686, died at 3 years; Obadiah, 13, baptized 15 July 1688. He was freeman 1690, and died 4 July 1692.

HENRY GOREN, or HENRY GORING, Windsor. He had William, born 13 October 1679, next year abandoned his family. And his wife was, after 5 years, divorced. The son went in 1710, to England in vain pursuit of estate.

ROBERT GORGES, son of Sir Ferdinando Gorges. In September 1693 he came over and sat down with several families at Weymouth, but they were soon willing to go home, and perhaps very few, if any, continued for a second year.

THOMAS GORGES, York, cousin of the preceding, nephew of Sir Ferdinando Gorges. He came in 1640, was first Mayor of the corporation but went home after three years. Winthrop II. 9. In Hutchinson I. 176, is a strange tradition that he came back and died here.

WILLIAM GORGES, Saco, another nephew of Sir Ferdinando Gorges, deputized with full authority for his government of Somerset shire, i.e. all the coast between the Kennebeck and Piscataqua river. He came over in 1635, and on new-year's day, 25 March 1636, held his court. But, I imagine, he was soon tired of his office, and went home. See Chalmers, Polit. Ann. 472-4.

JAMES GORHAM, JAMES GORUM, or JAMES GORAM, Barnstable, son of John Gorham. He married 24 February 1674, Hannah Huckins, daughter of Thomas Huckins, had Desire, born 9 February 1675; James, 6 March 1677; Experience, 28 July 1678; John, 2 August 1680; Mehitable, 20 April 1683, baptized 16 September following; Thomas, 16 December 1684, baptized 26 July following; Mercy, 22 November 1686, died young; Joseph, 25 March baptized 2 June 1689; Jabez, 6 March baptized 10 May 1691; Sylvanus, 13 October 1693, baptized 17 June following; and Ebenezer, 14 February baptized 26 April 1696. His wife died 13 February 1727.

JOHN GORHAM, JOHN GORUM, or JOHN GORAM, Plymouth, son of Ralph Gorham, born in England, baptized at Benefield, Northampton shire 28 January 1621. He married 1643, Desire Howland, eldest daughter of John Howland the Pilgrim of the Mayflower, had Desire, born 2 April 1644. He removed to Marshfield, where he had been, perhaps, before. Had there Temperance, 5 May 1646; Elizabeth, 2 April 1648; James, 2 or 28 April 1650; and John, 20 February 1652. He removed to Yarmouth, there had Joseph, 16 February 1654. He removed last to Barnstable, there had Jabez, 3 August 1656; Mary, 20 January 1659; Lydia, 11 November 1661; Hannah, 28 November 1663; and Shubael, 21 October 1667. He was Captain in Philip's war, and died on service of fever 5 February 1676 at Swanzey. His daughter Desire married 7 October 1 John Hawes. Son Jabez was wounded in Philip's war; and became a proprietor of Bristol, there, in February 1689, having wife and four children. The widow died 13 October 1683. Daughter Mary married second George Denison, and Lydia married 11 January 1684, John Thacher.

JOHN GORHAM, JOHN GORUM, or JOHN GORAM, Barnstable, son of the preceding. He married 24 February 1675, daughter of John Otis, had John, born 18 January 1676, died young; Temperance, 2 August 1678; Mary, 18 April 1680; Stephen, 23 June 1683; Shubael, 2 September 1686; John, 28 September 1688, baptized 3 March following; Thankful, 15 February baptized 19 April 1691; Job, 30 August 1692; and Mercy, December 1695, baptized 5 April 1696. He died 11 November 1716.

RALPH GORHAM, RALPH GORUM, or RALPH GORAM, Duxbury 1637. He probably came with son John, and probably Ralph, from Benefield, near Oundle, about six or seven miles distance from Northampton shire. But no more is heard of him, so that we may suppose he went home.

SHUBAEL GORHAM, SHUBAEL GORUM, or SHUBAEL GORAM, or (as commonly written) SHOBAL GORHAM, SHOBAL GORUM, or SHOBAL GORAM, Barnstable, son of first John Gorham. He married May 1695, Priscilla Hussey, had George, born 29 January 1697; Abigail, March 1699; Lydia, 14 May 1701; Hannah, 28 July 1703; Theodate, 18 July 1705; Daniel, 2 September 1708; Desire, 26 September 1710; and Ruth, 7 May 1713. Nathaniel Gorham, President of the Continental Congregation 1786, and his son Benjamin Gorham, Harvard College 1796, several times member of U.S. Congress, were descended. Early this name was written with double r and without h, sometimes Goarum. Eight had been graduates at Harvard 1832.

JOHN GORNELL, Dorchester, tanner. He may have come 1630 in the Mary and John, from Devonshire or from Suffolk with Winthrop. He was freeman 10 May 1643. He died 31 July 1675, aged 64 years says his gravestone, whose spelling I followed while Colony records gives it Gurnell. His widow Jane married 1676 Giles Burge, outlived him, and died 4 April 1678. Her will was of 2 March 1678. She is called on the gravestone near his, wife of John Gornell, without any reference to Burge. He had large estate and, as the children of his brothers or sister would not come to partake it, account to his bequest, in will of 19 January 1674, the town has enjoyed good portion of the £1648 value.

DUNCAN GORNOCK, New Haven 1688, a member of the church then, and his wife Margaret joined 1689; but I can hardly think any church of such a name was there.

ABRAHAM GORTON, Roxbury, son of John Gorton. He married 31 May 1683, Mary Sumner, had Mary, born 24 March 1684; and John, 9 March 1686. Perhaps he removed.

BENJAMIN GORTON, Warwick, youngest son of the first Samuel Gorton. He married 5 December 1672, Sarah Calder, daughter of Richard Calder, had Mary, born October 1673; Maplet; Sarah; Samuel; Benjamin; Alice; and another daughter. The five daughters all married.

JOHN GORTON, Roxbury. He had wife Mary, and daughter Mary, who died August 1636; Mary, again, born 21 June 1611, but baptized so late as 11 June 1643, died young; Sarah, baptized 21 January 1644; Hannah, 5 April 1646, died 1669, unmarried; Mary, again, 3 September 1648; Alice, 8 March 1652; Elizabeth, 30 July 1654, died soon; John, 16 or 24 January 1656, died before his father; and Abraham, 8 May 1659. He was freeman 1669, and he died 1676. In his will of 17 June 1676 names wife, son Abraham, and daughters Sarah, Mary, and Alice. Mary married 23 May 1665, Daniel Marshcroft.

JOHN GORTON, Warwick, second son of the first Samuel Gorton. He married 28 June 1668, Margaret Wheaton, had Othniel, born 22 September 1669; Samuel, 22 July 1672; John; and Benjamin, about 1681.

SAMUEL GORTON, Warwick, a most active religious disturber of several places, born about 1600, at Groton, where, he says, his family had been many generations. Came to Boston 1636, went soon to Plymouth, thence, in 1638, to Rhode Island. He was administered an inhabitant 27 June 1638 but in the autumn of 1641 was disquieting Roger Williams at Providence. In 1643, with Holden, Greene, and others, made the great movement to purchase of Warwick from the Indians which led to hostile aggression by the government of Massachusetts, who took all his settlers prisoners, and punished them cruelly not without some hesitation even sparing their lives. Next year he went to England with other sufferers and obtained just assertion of his right, and had peace near thirty years for his adherents in the cloudy doctrines. See good Memoirs in Rhode Island History Collections Il. by Judge Staples; and critical disquisition by Charles Deane in Genealogical Registrar IV. 201. He had children Samuel, John, and Benjamin, besides daughters Maher, who married Daniel Coles; Mary, who married perhaps, Peter Greene, first, and, next, John Sanford; Sarah, who married William Mace; Ann, who married John Warner; Elizabeth married John Crandall, and Susanna married Benjamin Barton.

SAMUEL GORTON, Warwick, eldest son of the preceding. He married 11 December 1684, Susanna Burton, daughter of William Burton, had Samuel, born 1 June 1690; Hezekiah, 11 June 1692; and Susanna, 4 June 1694. He died 1724, aged, as report is, 94 years, but that may seem greatly exaggerated. He was old enough in 1670 to act as interpreter between the England and Indians.

BASTIAN GOSIER, Boston, a strange name of some Huguenot, I suppose, of less importance than most of that noble company which the earliest mention of in our town record is under the name of Gazeau, as having by wife Elizabeth, sons Bartholomew, born 23 April 1686; William, 19 August 1687; John, 4 August 1689; and Elizabeth, September 1690. Perhaps he was invited by the clerk to write, and the second child appears to be son of Bastian Geffeere, so that the chirography was as difficult to be made out as the sound. In growing towards English, from Gazeau, I give the form which is claimed for the two last children. He may have removed from Boston.

JOHN GOSMER, Southampton, Long Island 1641. He took estate August 1665 in Boston, which in June 1658, he made over "to his kinswoman Ann, wife of Richard Carter."

BARTHOLOMEW GOSNOLD, the distinguished navigator, son and heir, as he styles himself of Anthony Gosnold of Grundisburgh, first named in honor of his Sovereign, if he did not discover the Elizabeth islands, south west of Cape Cod, and planted a small Colony on Cuttyhunk 1602, soon given up; renewed in 1606, the plantation of Virginia. He died there 22 August 1606 leaving no issue, unless possibly the last above named were a son who is not very likely.

JOHN GOSS, Watertown, freeman 18 May 1631. He came in the fleet, probably with Winthrop 1630, with wife Sarah, and several children of which Joseph was buried 10 May 1631, and Elizabeth died 25 December 1641. He was the man, I think, punished by very heavy fine for evil speech; and the court, on petition of wife and children represented his mental dis-temperment April 1640, confirmed by Phillips, Mayhew, and others, remitted the whole. His name in the freeman list was read as having double father instead of double son. He was buried February 1644, and his widow married Robert Nichols.

PHILIP GOSS, Roxbury, or, as may seem not unlikely, Muddy River as the town record does not show his name. The children by his wife Hannah Hopkins, baptized at Roxbury were Philip, 16 February 1679; Hannah, 16 of next month; and Mary, 22 August 1680.

CHARLES GOTT, Salem. He came in the Abigail with Endicott, September 1628, requested administration 19 October 1630 as freeman, and 18 May 1631 was recorded as first Deacon of the church. He was Representative 1635. He had Deborah, baptized 12 February 1637; Charles, June 1639; and Daniel, 28 June 1646. He removed to Wenham, was Representative for this town 1654, and he died 1667 or 1668.

CHARLES GOTT, Wenham, son of the preceding. He married 12 November 1659, Sarah Dennis, who died 8 August 1665. On 25 December 1665 he married Lydia Clark. He was freeman 1663. He may have been father of Charles Gott, the freeman 1682.

DANIEL GOTT, Wenham, brother of the preceding, freeman 1670. He married 2 January 1666, Elizabeth Morris, had Mary, born 27 January 1667; John, 17 September 1672; and Thomas, 22 July 1675, died in 2 weeks.

ADAM GOULD, or ADAM GOLD, Groton. By wife Rebecca Cooper, married at Salem, 15 August 1677, there had Rebecca, born 25 August 1678; and John, 31 January 1680. But at Groton had Dorcas, born 8 September 1683. He removed to Woburn, there by wife Hannah, had Thomas, born 1689. His wife died soon.

BENJAMIN GOULD, or BENJAMIN GOLD, Salem, son of Thomas Gould of the same, was a witness to some folly in 1692.

DANIEL GOULD, or DANIEL GOLD, Newport, son of Jeremiah Gould, brought by his father in boyhood, a freeman there 1655, accompanied Stephenson and Robinson, hanged as Quakers at Boston, October 1659, to encourage them, and was for that sympathy whipped next month. See Massachusetts Collection Record IV. part I. page 411. He was “tied to a big gun,” he says, to undergo the sentence of thirty stripes from that bigotry, whose folly was almost equally execrated. Representative 1672.

He died 26 March 1716, aged about 90.

DANIEL GOULD, or DANIEL GOLD, Newport, son of the preceding. He married Mary Clark, eldest daughter of Walter Clark of the same, had sons Daniel and Jeremiah. But the family genealogy makes his wife daughter of Thomas Clark, not Walter Clark.

DANIEL GOULD, or DANIEL GOLD, Reading, one of the early settlers, was probably son of Zaccheus Gould of Lynn. He had wife Elizabeth, who died 3 August 1691, says Lewis. He may have been father of that John Gould of Reading who died there 24 January 1712, by gravestone, as Mr. Eaton finds, and about 69 years.

DANIEL GOULD, or DANIEL GOLD, Charlestown, perhaps son of the preceding. He had wife Dorcas. He died 25 May 1697, aged about 42 years. His widow died 5 June 1730, in 74th year.

JOHN GOULD, or JOHN GOLD, a husbandman from Towcester, Northampton shire. He came in the Defence 1635, aged 25, with wife Grace, 25; but no light is found as to his settlement.

By another wife Hannah, who died 15 May 1647, had Hannah, 26 October 1644; and John, 21 January 1647, died soon. By the same record he is favored with another John, 5 August 1648, probably by another wife Joanna, both father and son living 1678. He may have been one of the early settlers at Reading. He made his will 3 January 1689, and died 21 March 1691, aged 100, as said. His widow Joanna died 27 August 1697, aged, perhaps, 88. Hannah married 10 June 1675, Thomas Eliot of Boston.

JOHN GOULD, or JOHN GOLD, Newport 1655, Representative 1672; but I learn no more of him.

See Hutchinson I. 365, and better and fuller account in 3 Massachusetts History Collections VII. 150-4.

NATHAN GOULD, or NATHAN GOLD, Fairfield 1652. He married Martha Harvey, daughter of Edmund Harvey. He was an Assistant 1657, and every year but one following was named for same rank in the Royal Charter of 1662. He was in 1670 the richest inhabitant. He wrote his surname without u but perhaps the universal pronunciation caused the change. He died 4 March 1694, in his will of three days preceding (1 March 1694) names only son Nathan, and daughters Sarah, wife of John Thompson; Deborah, wife of George Clark; Abigail, wife of Jonathan Selleck; and Martha, daughter of John Selleck; his wife having died before his son.

NATHAN GOULD, or NATHAN GOLD, of Fairfield, Deputy Governor in 1707. He was made Chief Justice of the Supreme Court 1712, and died early, probably in November 1723, as the inventory of his estate bears date of 14 November 1723. He had married Hannah Talcott, daughter of John Talcott the second of Hartford, had John, Nathan, Samuel, Onesimus, David, Joseph, Hezekiah Gould, Harvard College 1719, minister of Stratford, and a daughter of unknown name, who married Reverend Thomas Hawley of Ridgefield, who all had shares in his estate. The family has, in our day, been eminent for public service.

NATHAN GOULD, or NATHAN GOLD, Salisbury 1660. By wife Elizabeth, had Mary, born 20 June 1661; Elizabeth, 4 April 1664; and Samuel, 3 February 1668. He was of Amesbury 1690, and freeman that year. In his will of 12 December 1692, names wife Elizabeth and children Joseph, Elizabeth, Hannah, and Samuel.

NATHANIEL GOULD, or NATHANIEL GOLD, Milford 1646, may be only a mistake of Lambert, as other inquiries find no such person there.

ROBERT GOULD, or ROBERT GOLD, Hull. He married 1666, Judith, and had second wife Jane Smith, a widow, daughter of Thomas Harris of Boston. He was freeman 1680.

SAMUEL GOULD, or SAMUEL GOLD, Topsfield, son of the first John Gould of the same. He married 20 April 1694, Margaret Stone, whose father is unknown.

He died 1724, his will of 26 November 1724, being probated 21 December 1724. Perhaps he lived late in life at Boxford.

THOMAS GOULD, or THOMAS GOLD, Boston, came in the Jonathan 1639, aged 32. He may have been the freeman of 2 June 1641, but he was not of Boston church so that it is doubtful. But perhaps he was first of Cambridge. By wife Mary, had Jacob, born 16 September 1643. He died 26 October 1662.

THOMAS GOULD, or THOMAS GOLD, Newport 1655. He married Elizabeth Balstone, daughter of William Balstone, who had been, the former year divorced from John Coggeshall. He may have been many years of Wickford 1674.

He, about 1665, became a Baptist, was long imprisoned for his falling off, but ultimately discharged with reputation. He had second wife Mary before all his troubles were over; but I know not if before or after he gathered the First Baptist Church of Boston and Charlestown in May 1665. He died April 1674, probably at Boston, and in his will, with codicil of 25 April 1674, probated 30 April 1674, names wife Mary, son Samuel, daughters Mary, wife of Thomas Skinner, Mehitable, wife of James Goodwin, Mary Bunker, and her two children Abigail Shapley, sons Nathaniel Hayward, and daughter Hannah who married Thomas Whinyard, and lived at London. The volumes of Backus, I. 414, Benedict, I. 385, Frothingham, and Budington may be profitably consulted. Another

THOMAS GOULD, or THOMAS GOLD, of Charlestown in 1652. With wife Hannah joined the church that year. He may have been son of John Gould, unless I have been confused by two wives of one.

THOMAS GOULD, or THOMAS GOLD, Boston. He married 10 September 1636, Frances Robinson, had Thomas, born 27 November 1659; probably other children besides Ann, born about 1685, who married 27 February 1703, Nathaniel Green.

ZACCHEUS GOULD, or ZACCHEUS GOLD, Lynn 1640. He had, says Lewis, son Daniel, born about 1650, who went, I suppose, with other of his neighbors to Reading.

ZACCHEUS GOULD, or ZACCHEUS GOLD, Ipswich 1644 (in that part which soon was incorporated as Topsfield). He came from Hants Green, near Potter's Row, in County Bucks, a parish, seen on the map, about 33 miles from London, near Grand Missenden. He left good estate to only son John, and four daughters perhaps, both at Rowley and Topsfield. His daughter Phebe married Thomas Perkins; Martha married John Newmarch; Mary married a (probably Abraham) Redington, and Priscilla married John Wild, which strange as it may appear, was a witness against her brother.

ZACCHEUS GOULD, or ZACCHEUS GOLD, Topsfield, son of the first John Gould of the same. He married 21 January 1702, Elizabeth Curtis, but whose daughter she was is unknown. Had Elizabeth, born 13 February 1703; Mary, 11 March 1705; Priscilla, 4 August 1707; John, 29 January 1710; Sarah, 28 January 1712; Abigail, 12 August baptized 25 September 1715; Zaccheus, 7 November 1717; Eliezer, 29 May, baptized 17 July 1720; and Susanna, 11 February baptized 28 April 1723. He died 1739, in his will of 16 April 1739 probated 28 May 1739 names all the nine children as alive. From this brother of the ancestor tree descends Benjamin Gould, who so many of the scholars of Boston honor as their instructor in the classics. Six of this name had, in 1834, been graduates at Harvard, fourteen at Yale, and three at other Colleges of New England.

ROGER GOULDEN, or ROGER GOLDEN, Rhode Island, 1676, Captain of a vessel, did service in Philip's war, especially on 12 August 1676, when the great adversary was killed. Married Penelope Arnold, daughter probably youngest of the first Benedict Arnold.

EDWARD GOVE, or EDWARD GOAVE, Hampton, Representative in the first assembly of New Hampshire 1680. He raised insurrection 1682 against the royal Governor Cranfield; but being insane or drunk, perhaps both, and unsupported by other patriots, was taken, convicted of treason, sentenced to death and shipped from Boston to London, where he was kept in gaol some years. At last he was let off, being not of sufficient importance to suffer for so dignified an offence, and his estate restored. Full story of this folly is in Belknap I. 98-100, and briefer in Chalmers, Polit. Ann. 495-6. He was first of Salisbury, there had John, born 19 September 1661; William, 21 October 1662, died next year; Hannah, March 1664; and at Hampton had Mary, 14 April 1666, who married 28 December 1682, Joseph Sanborn; Abigail; Peniel; both died soon; Abigail, again, 17 April 1670, who married 25 September 1690, Philemon Dalton of Hampton; Ebenezer, 23 June 1671; Edward, died soon; Jeremiah, 3 October 1674, died at 18 years; Ann, 9 January 1677, married 3 July 1696, Jeremiah Conner; and Sarah, 5 November 1678, who married 16 December 1698, Samuel Dearborn. He died 29 July 1691, and his widow Hannah died after 1712.

JOHN GOVE, or JOHN GOAVE, Charlestown, was, I suppose, a merchant who had not long been inhabitant. In his will of 22 January 1648, made very shortly before he died names children John, Edward, and Mary, given the last to Ralph Mousall to bring up.

JOHN GOVE, or JOHN GOAVE, Cambridge, probably brother of Edward Gove. He married 6 October 1658, Mary Aspinwall, perhaps daughter of William Aspinwall, who died 14 November 1676, had Mary, born 14 September 1659; John, 21 September 1660; both baptized 8 March 1661, for she had united with the church three days before; Aspinwall, 2, baptized 6 October 1661, died in few days; Nathaniel, baptized 16 November 1662; James, 13 December 1663, died young; Nathaniel, again, 4 August 1667. He married second wife 15 March 1677, Mary Woodhead, had Jonathan, born 19 January 1678, who died 11 October 1681; Jonathan, again, 3 May 1682; and Sarah, 28 August 1686. His son John died 28 April 1679. His wife died 11 September 1700. He married third wife 2 December 1700, widow Elizabeth Walden, and he died 21 November 1704, aged about 77. It is thought that John Gove, his father, came to Cambridge about 1653 bringing Edward and John; this last, constable at Cambridge 1667, being, then called junior. Perhaps the father died 16 January 1682.

JOHN GOVE, or JOHN GOAVE, Hampton, son of Edward Gove, engaged in the ridiculous treason with his father. and got off by his youth. By wife Sarah, had Mary, born 29 October 1687; John, 29 October 1689; Hannah, 1 April 1691; Jonathan, 2 May 1695; Sarah; and Abigail. He died 1737.

He removed to Weston, where his wife died 18 April 1740; and he died 22 December 1747.

JOHN GOWING, or JOHN GOWEN, Lynn. By wife Joanna, married 1682, had, says Lewis, John, Thomas, Elizabeth, Samuel, Joanna, Lois, and Timothy, but he gives no dates for them.

He had there baptized Joseph, and Mary, 30 July 1643, and Mary, again, 17 March 1644. He was of Marblehead 1648, and died there, about 1663, at least, his inventory has that date.

NICHOLAS GOZZARD, Windsor. He died 1693, leaving widow Elizabeth and children Elizabeth, then 21; Nathaniel, 16; and John, 11.

THOMAS GRAFFORT, Portsmouth. He married 11 December 1684, Bridget Cutts, widow of Thomas Daniel, daughter of Richard Cutts. He was a counselor of the Province 1692, removed to Boston before 1695, and died 6 August 1697. His widow died 29 May 1701.

JOHN GRAFTON, Salem, mariner, son of Joseph Grafton, of who Mather, Magnalia tells the story, copied from his father's Remarkable Providence cap. I, how he was, in September 1669, shipwrecked and preserved. Married 1 December 1659, Seeth Gardner, daughter of the first Thomas Gardner, had Mary, born 7 September 1660; Seth, 28 April 1665; Abigail, 12 August 1667; Jehoadan, 1 October 1669; Margaret, 24 January 1671; and Nathaniel, 14 July 1672.

He had wife Margaret who died November 1674, and children Priscilla; Joseph, baptized 24 January 1637; John, 28 April 1639, before mentioned and Nathaniel, 24 April or 1 May 1642. He was an active mariner and merchant. His second wife was Bethia Ray, widow of Captain Thomas Lathrop, daughter of Daniel Rea, or Daniel Ray, who as admirer of Lathrop joined with him in 1681, to settle the estate with Ezekiel Cheever, and his wife Ellen, sister of Lathrop and after his (Grafton's) death married before 26 June 1683, Deacon William Goodhue.

NATHANIEL GRAFTON, Salem, son of the first Joseph Grafton. He married 6 April 1665, Elizabeth Maverick, daughter of Moses Maverick, had Elizabeth, born 18 December 1667; Remember, 29 September 1669; Priscilla, 12 March 1671. He died at Barbados, 11 February 1671, unless confused with Joseph. His widow married a Skinner; and his daughter Elizabeth married William Hughes, and Priscilla married Thomas Jackson. See Genealogical Registrar VIII. 270, in note.

BENJAMIN GRAHAM, Hartford. He married Abigail Humphrey, probably daughter of John Humphrey of Simsbury. She died 27 June 1697. He married next, 20 or 28 November 1698, Sarah Mygat, widow of John Webster, daughter of Jacob Mygat, and he died 1725.

JAMES GRAHAM, Boston. He came, probably as friend of Andros, and was his Attorney-General, but on the overthrow of that administration was imprisoned without bail. Hutchinson Collection 564. History I. 388. Revolution in New England Just. 21. 31.

JOHN GRANGER, Scituate 1640. He left widow Grace, in whose will of 24 November 1648, are named minor son John and daughter Elizabeth. The son John died at Marshfield, probably 4 October 1655.

In 1679 he removed to what is now Suffield, where his daughter Elizabeth married 16 July 1684, Vicary Sikes. There he died 1689. His widow Joanna was living 1701. All the daughters married, and Abraham with three brothers, each had families at Suffield. Honorable Gideon Granger, Post Master General of the U. S. was of this stock.

SAMUEL GRANGER, Suffield, son of the preceding. He married Esther Hanchet, daughter of Deacon John Hanchet, had children Samuel, Esther, Deliverance, Abraham, John, Jeremiah, and Robert. Of his death the date is not seen, but his estate was devised 1722.

THOMAS GRANGER, Suffield, son of Lancelot Granger of the same. He married 14 November 1683, Mindwell Taylor, daughter of Stephen Taylor of Windsor, had Thomas, born 9 March 1684; William, 1 November 1685; died in few weeks; Eunice, 13 January 1687; Elizabeth, 26 March 1692; and probably others.

EDWARD GRANNIS, Hartford. He married 3 May 1655, Elizabeth Andrews, daughter of William Andrews, had Joseph, born 31 March 1656, died young; and perhaps more. But he married 1662, second wife Hannah Wakefield, daughter of John Wakefield, had Hannah, who married 13 January 1681, John Hill; Mabel married 2 March 1684, John Johnson; Abigail married 20 March 1689, John Allen junior,; removed to Hadley, there had Sarah, born 20 October 1671, married 28 April 1690, Nathaniel Bishop; John, 5 December 1674.

ALEXANDER GRANT, Boston 1657, one of the founders of the Scots Charitable Society that year. Among, the twelve Grants, transported in the John and Sarah from London 1652, to be sold at Boston, part of the gleanings of the field of carnage at Worcester of 3 September preceding is one Alexander Grant, who may be this man; but it seems to me very unlikely. None of that cargo would be kindly recorded here as they had been smitten by the wrath of Heaven in the odious cause of Charles II; and though some may think, that of these young men it might be large sacrifice to take, at the lowest computed three quarters in five years yet I believe that a larger proportion than that fell victims to the heartless policy. See the end of this paragraph under Thomas.

BENJAMIN GRANT, New London, about 1664, mariner, perhaps son of Christopher Grant. He married a daughter of Matthew Beckwith, removed to Lyme, and died about 1670, leaving children. But Bond gives

BENJAMIN GRANT son of Christopher Grant, to be of Watertown 1694, a weaver, with wife Priscilla, so that, in my opinion, one man only must be counted Benjamin, who was of Cambridge, says Caulkins, in 1693.

CALEB GRANT, Watertown, a mason. By wife Mary, who died 1 February 1684, had Caleb; Sarah, born 1671, died soon; Joseph, 3 April 1681, died soon; Mary; and Abigail, 2 January 1684. He died 5 November 1694.

CHRISTOPHER GRANT, Watertown 1634. By wife Mary, had Abigail, born 6 February 1635. Joshua, 11 June 1637; Caleb, 8 February 1640; and Benjamin, 6 September 1641. By wife Sarah, had Sarah, 1 February 1643; Joseph, 27 September 1646; Mary, or Mercy, or both; and Christopher, 1649. But it is observable that Bond takes note of only one wife. He died 6 September 1685. He was employed in setting the glass in the first edifice erection for Harvard College. Abigail married Roger Rose; Sarah married 23 February 1666, Samuel Seaverns; Mary married 27 February 1668, Daniel Smith; and much puzzle may be seen as to marriage of Mercy with Samuel Daniel, or Daniels, in Bond, 197, 260, and 776.

EDWARD GRANT, Boston 1658, shipwright. He married Sarah Ward, daughter of William Ward, or William Weare, had Experience, born 26 December 1658; and Joseph, 15 February 1661. He was freeman 1672. He died 1682, leaving widow Sarah, and son Joseph only. An inscription ridiculously false, purporting to be on his gravestone in the new burial ground in Boston as if he died 12 June 1630, before the arrival of any except Blaxton, on this peninsula, given at page 29 of the Dorchester Saxton's Memorandum imposed on the severe judgment of Farmer. Many false impressions can be obtained from gravestones, thoughtlessly changed, as often they are by idle schoolboys, as one of them, sixty-seven years ago, did, in several instances at that buried grounds by his acknowledgment to me.

JAMES GRANT, Boston 1657, one of the founders of the Scots Charitable Society that year.

JAMES GRANT, Charlestown 1658. He may have been of Dover 1657, of York 1674, and of other towns later, nothing, being, known at either place about him except that at York one of the names took oath of allegiance 22 March 1681.

JAMES GRANT, Boston 4, perhaps son of the first James Grant of the same. He was recorded into the Scot's Charitable Society 1684.

JOHN GRANT, Windsor, son of Matthew Grant. He married 2 August 1666, Mary Hull, had John, born 20 October 1670, died soon; John, again, 6 August 1673, died young; Mary, 26 April 1675; Elizabeth, 10 July 1677; Abigail, 27 January 1680, baptized at Hartford, 17 July 1681, by Reverend Isaac Foster; and Josiah. He died 22 July 1684.

JOHN GRANT, Newbury. By wife Sarah, had Sarah, born 10 April 1691; William, 1 November 1694; Joanna, 2 April 1697; and Abraham, 2 January 1702. He was taxed at Rowley 1691. Jane, of Rowley 1643, who died 1696, may have been his mother.

JOSEPH GRANT, Watertown, son of Christopher Grant. He married 24 December 1684, Mary Grafton, had Jonathan, baptized 24 April 1687; Mary, born 13 September 1686, died soon; Sarah, March 1688; Mehitable, baptized 27 October 1689; Joseph, 18 May 1690; Stephen; Joshua, born 13 December 1694; Elizabeth, 16 November 1696; Abigail, 28 August 1698; Mary, 8 November 1699; Hannah, 21 November 1700; Mercy, 20 September 1702; Bathsheba; and Christopher.

JOSEPH GRANT, Boston, probably son of Edward Grant. He married Mary Draper, daughter of Moses Draper.

JOSIAH GRANT, Windsor, son of Matthew Grant. He had Josiah, born 24 November 1678.

JOSHUA GRANT, Kennebeck, eldest son of Christopher Grant. He had Joshua who was killed by the Indians 14 August 1676. Willis, I. 147. His father had administration next year of his estate.

MATTHEW GRANT, Dorchester. He came in the Mary and John, 1630, with Maverick and Warham, was, we may suppose, therefore of County Devon, freeman 18 May 1631. He had wife and daughter Priscilla, born in England, and here had Samuel, born 12 November 1631; and Tahan, 3 February 1634. He removed 1635 to Windsor, for the first plantation there, was many years its faithful town clerk. He had John, born 20 April 1642, but recorded no other children. He died 16 December 1681. For second wife he had Susanna Rockwell, daughter of William Rockwell. Priscilla married 14 October 1647, Michael Humphrey. In the History of Warham 635, Stiles, with self-contradictions makes Priscilla to be daughter of second wife.

PETER GRANT, Boston 1657, one of the founders in that year of the Scots Charitable Society, may have removed to Hartford. He died 1681, leaving six children of which the eldest Mary had married Thomas Goodfellow.

SAMUEL GRANT, Windsor, eldest son of Matthew Grant, freeman 1654. He married 27 May 1638, Mary Porter, had Samuel, born 20 April 1659, John, 24 April 1664; Matthew, 22 September 1666; Josiah, 19 May 1668; Nathaniel, 14 April 1672; Mary, 23 January 1676; and Sarah, 19 January 1679.

SETH GRANT, Cambridge 1632. He came with Wadsworth, Talcott, Goodwin, Olmstead, and others in the Lion, arriving at Boston 16 September 1632. With them he removed to Hartford, and was an original proprietor. But no more is known of him than from his inventory of 14 March 1647 in Trumbull, Colony Record I. 481. We may infer that he had family not numerous, and that he died early in 1647.

TAHAN GRANT, Windsor, son of Matthew Grant. He married 22 January 1663, Hannah Palmer, daughter of Nicholas Palmer, had Matthew, born 4 January 1664; Tahan, 27 September 1665; Hannah, 8 June 1668; Thomas, 20 February 1671; Joseph, 14 May 1673; Sarah, 19 September 1675; Mary, 23 October 1678; and another child 11 November 1680, who died in three days. He died May 1693.

THOMAS GRANT, Dorchester, a soldier, December 1675 of brave Captain Johnson's company. He probably had no family for in his will of 5 August 1681, probated 29 September 1681, he names none, but gave to his "dame Withington" a memento, and to James Grant of Dedham £20.

THOMAS GRANT, Rehoboth. He had a child buried September 1676, without name, probably very young. I think this name may have been misspelled on the record Gaunt. Yet under Grant he appears again in Colony Records having Hannah, born 4 April 1681; David, 2 February 1683. Under this name came to our country many, twelve men in one ship, the John and Sarah, from London in May 1652; three called James; three, John; and one, Alexander, Alister, Daniel, Patrick, Thomas, and William, respectively. They were among the 272 wretched passengers put on board November 1651 "free by ordinance of Parliament 20 October 1651" to be sold here, prisoners, gleaned on the fatal field of Worcester, 3 September 1651. A similar cargo, from the doleful harvest of Dunbar, of nearly the same number probably in the former year sent to us by the government at home, had, as in his letter of 28 July 1651, from Boston, to the Lord General Cromwell, our John Cotton assures him, "not been sold for slaves to perpetuate servitude, but for 6, or 7, or 8 years as we do our own." For the precise import of these last words, that may seem intentionally ambiguous, moderate sagacity will suggest different conjecture yet far more interest belongs to the number; and though it is easy enough to guess, it is difficult to ascertain, the exact enumeration. But some in the shipment of the former year must have been Grants. Neither of these slave cargoes probably could add much to our wholesome population. The Committee of the Privy Council, a quarter century after, sent over to Governor Bradstreet a series of twenty-seven questions relating to the condition of this Colony in every particular, to which in 1680 he gave answers, the latter part of 17th having these words: "Now when, two or three negroes are brought hither from Barbados and other of his Majesty's plantations, and sold here for about twenty pounds apiece; so that there may be, within our government about 100 or 120, and it may be as many Scots brought hither and sold for servants in the time of the war with Scotland, and most now married and lived here, and about half so many Irish, brought hither at several times as servants." The "crowning mercy," as Oliver, with foresight at least equal to his piety, entitled the result of each of those terrible days, showed its profit more in England than among the Colonies in the West Indies or North America. Most of the unhappy exiles died of disease, we may believe, whether titled scurvy or broken heart; and some of the sad remainder, no doubt, after close of the years for which they had been sold, abandoned the land of their sorrows. Twenty-eight and nine years only had elapsed when Bradstreet loose report, and by his reckoning, inexact as it is, we see reason for inference, that four fifths of the young prisoners, brought here in 1651 and 1652, were not remaining. From his laxity of phrase "most now married and lived here," I should feel compelled to make large deduction. See 3 Massachusetts History Collections VIII. 337. So that after years of consideration given to this subject, and diligence inquiry for the stocks whence sprang the New England population of 1775, and duly estimating the ratio of increase from that glorious colony of "Scotch Irish," sixty-five years later, whose male adults were only one third of these off scouring of the civil war, I presume that not more than one in twenty or thirty of these involuntary youthful "re-demptioners" was married on our shores. Here is one of the necessary sequences of such social convulsion. The names of most of these sad settlers from one ship may be seen in Genealogical Registrar I. 377; and the valuable epistle of Cotton to Cromwell is in Hutchinson collection.

ABRAHAM GRAVES, Concord 1677, son (or brother) of John Graves, was of Andover 1689.

GEORGE GRAVES, Hartford, an original proprietor, was Deacon, Representative 1657 and after. He had George, John, and two or three daughters, one of whom Mary married Samuel Dow, 12 December 1663. He died September 1673.

GEORGE GRAVES, Hartford, son of the preceding, perhaps born in England. He married 2 April 1651, Elizabeth Ventris, probably sister of Moses Ventris the first. He removed early to Middletown, of which he was Representative 1658, and some years marshal of the Colony. He died 3 December 1692, leaving George, John, Elizabeth, Sarah, and Mercy.

ISAAC GRAVES, Hartford, son of Thomas Graves, born in England. He married Mary Church, daughter of Richard Church, had Mary, born 5 July 1647; Isaac, 22 August 1650; Rebecca, 3 July 1652 or 6 July 1653; Samuel, 1 October 1655; and Sarah. He removed to Hatfield, then part of Hadley, and had Elizabeth, 1662; John, 1664; Hannah, 1666; Jonathan; and Mehitable, 1 October 1671. He was freeman 1669. He was killed by the Indians 19 September 1677. All his children except Isaac and Rebecca then living. Elizabeth married Benjamin Hastings; Mehitable married 1690, Richard Morton, and next, William Worthington.

ISAAC GRAVES, Hatfield, son of John Graves of the same. He married 1679, Sarah Wyatt, daughter of John Wyatt of Haddam, whose widow had married his father.

JOHN GRAVES, Roxbury. He came in May 1633, with wife who died soon after, and 5 children: John, Samuel, Jonathan, Sarah, and Mary, says the church records. The William and Jane came in that month but as Winthrop says she brought only thirty passengers. I think these came, perhaps, that month In the other ship Mary and Jane, who had 196. In December 1635 he married Judith Alward, or Judith Allard, had Hannah, born 8 September 1636. He was freeman 18 April 1637, and died 4 November 1644. Eliot calls him "godly brother" and after mentioned, next to him, of funeral of "Thomas Ruggles, a godly brother", adds: "these two broke the knot first of the Nazing Christians. I mean they first died of all those Christians that came from that town in England". As he, also, came from that little town, we know how he must have felt their loss. Fourth after the daughter of the son we read in the record January "about 24 days, old mother Graves died. She was about 80 years of age." In his will, of 1 November 1644, he provides for his mother, for wife, and all the children except Sarah, who was, probably dead. But on 26 November 1645 his son John made his will, and gives to all brothers and sisters yet more to Sarah than the other two, and to his father's widow. On 5 December 1645, the writer adds to his sad list: "John Graves, a godly young man, eldest son of him who died the year before". The widow Judith married 2 June 1646, William Potter, survived him, and married 13 December 1654, Samuel Finch; and Hannah married 24 May 1654, John Mayo.

JOHN GRAVES, Wethersfield, brother of Isaac Graves, born in England, freeman of Connecticut 1654. He had John, Mary, Isaac, Samuel, and Sarah, born there. He removed 1659 or 1660, to Hadley, west side of the river now Hatfield, and had Elizabeth, born 1662; Daniel, 1664; Ebenezer, 1666; Bethia, 1668, died soon; and Nathaniel, 1671. Perhaps this last son by second wife Mary Wyatt, daughter of John Wyatt of Haddam. He was killed by the Indians 19 September 1677. Of the ten children nine were living in 1692. Daniel and Ebenezer settled In Springfield. His widow married Lieutenant William Allis, and next, Samuel Gaylord.

JOHN GRAVES, Concord 1643. He had, says Shattuck, Benjamin, who married 1668, Mary Hoar; John, who married 1671, Mary Chamberlain, daughter of Thomas Chamberlain; and Abraham.

JOHN GRAVES, Guilford, son of first George Graves, perhaps born in England. He married 26 November 1657, Elizabeth Stillwell, daughter of Jasper Stillwell, had John, Joseph, Nathaniel, Sarah, Abigail, and Hannah, with good estate. He was a Captain, Deacon, Representative 1670 and 76, still one of the proprietors, and so was his son John, in 1685. Probably he died 1694, for his inventory was brought in 28 April 1694.

JOHN GRAVES, Casco. Before 1680 he married Martha Mitton, daughter of Michael Mitton. Willis, I. 97, 165, 173.

JOHN GRAVES, Ipswich, freeman 1685, a cordwainer. By wife Martha, had Martha, 2 years old; and Sarah, one year when administration of his estate was granted 24 July 1699. But he was in 1682 living at Portsmouth, and had Abigail, born 29 December 1687.

JOSEPH GRAVES, Sudbury, son of Thomas Graves (called the Admiral) of Charlestown. He married 15 January 1666, Elizabeth Maynard, daughter of John Maynard, had Samuel, born 14 February 1667; Richard, 7 April 1672; John, 10 May 1674; and Deliverance. His wife died 1676. He married 1678, Mary Ross, had Mary, 1680; Ebenezer, 1681, died soon; and Ebenezer again, 28 February 1682. Descendants have been numerous at Sudbury.

MARK GRAVES, Lynn. He had Hannah, born 14 December 1657, and Esther, 10 February 1669.

MARK GRAVES, Andover, may, or may not, be the same as preceding. By wife Amy, who died 20 February 1666, had Dorcas, who married 17 April 1678, George Abbot; Amy, born 1659; Ruth, 1661; Sarah, 1663; Mark, 1664, died young. His second wife, married 14 November 1667, was Elizabeth Farrington, probably daughter of Jacob Farrington, and he had Abraham, Thomas, Mark, again, 1671; and Hannah, who married 27 December 1689, Timothy Abbot. But it is not certain that one, or more, of the four last-named were not by the first wife.

NATHANIEL GRAVES, Charlestown, eldest son of Thomas Graves of the same, born on this side of the water. He married 24 or 29 August 1664, Elizabeth Russell, daughter of Richard Russell, had Nathaniel; Maud; Elizabeth; besides Catharine, baptized 6 April 1673. He was a mariner, and died 12 February 1679. His widow married Captain John Herbert Reading outlived him, and died 18 October 1714, aged 70.

NATHANIEL GRAVES, Wethersfield may have been son of Thomas Graves of Hartford, perhaps born in England, freeman of Connecticut 1657. He died 1682, leaving no sons, and daughters: Sarah, born 1656; Mary, 1638; Rebecca, 1660; Martha, 1667; and Abigail, 1669.

RICHARD GRAVES, Salem. He came from London in the Abigail 1635, aged 23, a pewterer. He had baptized there, in right of his wife who was recorded into the church just before three children at once, 14 March 1641; Joseph, 16 October 1642; Benjamin and Elizabeth, I suppose twins 6 August 1645; Mary, 16 April 1648; Richard, 6 October 1650; Hannah, 15 August 1652; and Deliverance, 16 July 1654. In the autumn of 1635, by the Hopewell, Captain Babb, from London, came John Grave, aged 30, and Mary 26, but whether they were, or either of them, maid, or wife, or widow, or any way related to any in our country, is altogether beyond conjecture.

RICHARD GRAVES, Boston. He had Ruth, who married 7 August 1656, Henry Keskeys.

SAMUEL GRAVES, Lynn 1630. He had Samuel, and probably several other children of which we have no report. Lewis, 64.

SAMUEL GRAVES, Ipswich 1658, felt maker. He married Grace Beamsley, daughter of William Beamsley of Boston, where he may have lived at first, had Samuel, born 5 Aug,.1658; John, 1 Aug 1660; Elizabeth, Hannah, 19 December 1662 and Jonathan, who died young. His death is not dated, but his widow lived to 26 November 1730, and was 95 years old.

SAMUEL GRAVES, Lynn, son of Samuel Graves of the same. He married 12 March 1678, Sarah Brewer, had Crispus, born 3 August 1679; Hannah, 27 August 1681; and Samuel, 2 August 1684.

SAMUEL GRAVES, Ipswich, son of the first Samuel Graves of the same, took oath of fidelity 1678. By wife Joanna, had Abigail, born 11 February 1683; Mary, 18 February 1685; and Samuel, 26 March 1687. He died 4 October 1732, aged 74.

THOMAS GRAVES, Charlestown, the engineer, who laid out the place in 1629, came (under contract of 10 March 1629), in the fleet with Higginson, with possibly, but not probably wife and five children. From Gravesend, County Kent, arrived at Salem in June 1629. By the Governor and company of the Massachusetts Bay was joined with the three ministers, two Brownes, and Samuel Sharp, as advisers of Endicott, who was never able to consult them, as a body. He required administration 19 October 1630, and 18 May 1631 was made freeman; and no more is known of him, but probably he went home in the spring of 1632, when his engagement ended. Or rather in the year after, for Frothingham, pages 52 and 140, renders it probable that he was still here in March 1633. He certainly he did not come to church union with his neighbors. That his wife and children came to this side of the ocean is not certain since the accurate Prince mistook him for the administrator. We may less wonder at this, for the family tradition of the latter has confused the two persons; and a vexatious uncertainly ran through all the books, until Young's Chron. 262; Budington, 168; and Frothingham, 140, particular. The last, by the widely diverse autographs, taught us, happily to discriminate.

THOMAS GRAVES, Hartford, not an original proprietor, an old man excused from training 1645. He removed to Hadley, perhaps had not any children born here, yet had brought from England Isaac, John, and perhaps Samuel, and a daughter whose name is unknown, and possibly Nathaniel. All, except this last, removed with him. He died November 1662; and his widow Sarah died 1666.

THOMAS GRAVES, Dorchester, of whose sad family removed to Virginia and there all died except one, a daughter miserable enough to throw away herself and good estate upon Nathaniel Eaton, the outcast head of Harvard College. The story is found in Winthrop II. 342; but it is strange, that Harris did not give the name among his townsmen.

THOMAS GRAVES, Charlestown 1638, probably was nine years before, mate of the Talbot, in which came Higginson to Salem, and in the same station on board the administered ship of Winthrop's fleet. He was, it is said, son of John Graves, born at Ratcliffe, near London, 6 June 1605, baptized 16th of the same. He was several years master of a ship almost constantly employed between London and Boston. In 1642 had the first vessel ever built at Boston for foreign trade, in which his brother-in-law, Coytemore, made the first voyage in that year. He was freeman 13 May 1640. He married in England before 1635, I presume, Catharine Gray, daughter by her first husband of Catharine Coytemore, the widow who came over in 1637, her son Thomas Coytemore having been here a year earlier, probably brought son John, and perhaps another child. He united with his wife to the church 7 October 1639, and on 5 November 1639 had baptized there son Nathaniel, and probably Thomas, born 1638 besides Susanna, born 8 July 1643, as the Boston clerk has recorded for what reason can only be guessed; and Joseph, 13 April 1645. He names these five children in his will, and two others, Rebecca, with her children, and Elizabeth, of which we hear no more. The widow died 21 February 1682. He was a very active and brave man. For good service in the English channel perhaps on his last voyage, was rewarded by Parliament I suppose (certainly not, as tradition says, by Oliver, whose power became perfect too late for such liberality), with the title of Rear Admiral. He died at Charlestown 31 July 1653. The last will, however, was made 13 June 1652. Susanna married 18 November 1669, Reverend Zechariah Symmes, minister at a later day, of Bradford, and died 23 July 1681, after having seven children.

THOMAS GRAVES, Charlestown, son of the preceding, Harvard College 1656, some years a tutor at College "a godly, learned man, a good tutor, and solid preacher," Chief Justice Sewall, who was under him at College. He married 16 May 1677, Elizabeth Chickering, daughter of Dr. John Chickering, who died 22 July 1679. He was freeman 1673. He married 15 May 1682, Sarah Stedman, widow of Dr. Samuel Alcock, daughter of John Stedman of Cambridge, who had first been daughter of John Brackett. By her, perhaps, were born all his children except a daughter; Thomas Graves, baptized 30 September 83, Harvard College 1703; Catharine, John, Nathaniel, Susanna, and Joseph. But, as Sewall, in his Diary, mentioned his leaving a son by the daughter of Mr. Stedman, I almost necessarily infer, that all these children except Thomas, died before their father. He was a physician, Representative and a Judge. He died 30 May 1697, and his widow (who had fourth husband Colonel John Phillips, outlived him and) died 1 March 1731 in 87th year. His son Thomas Graves, a Judge of Supreme Court died 19 June 1747, aged 63.

THOMAS GRAVES, Lynn, perhaps son of Samuel Graves of the same, and was freeman 1691. He died 24 January 1697. Lewis.

WILLIAM GRAVES, Dover 1659. Of this name four had been graduates at Harvard and three at other New England Colleges in 1834.

ARTHUR GRAY, Salem. He married 17 November 1668, Hannah Hyde, daughter of Richard Hyde, had Christian, born 1 August 1670; Joseph, 26 December 1672, who died soon; and Mary, 26 July 1674.

EDWARD GRAY, Plymouth 1643, a youth. He married 16 January 1651 Mary Winslow, daughter of John Winslow, who died 1663. He married 12 December 1660, Dorothy Lettice, daughter of Thomas Lettice, had Desire, born 6 November 1651; Mary, 18 September 1653; Elizabeth, 11 February 1658; Sarah, 12 August 1659; John, 1 October 1661 by the first wife. And Edward, born 31 January 1667; Susanna, 15 October 1668, by the second, and perhaps others. He was a merchant, Representative 1676-78, and died June 1681. His gravestone is called the oldest now standing in the town. Desire married 10 January 1672, Lieutenant Nathaniel Southworth. Thus is exposed a sad error in Genealogical Registrar XV. 12, whereby this Desire is made wife of Samuel Kent, who died 8 February 1762, aged about 94 years so that she must have been born before her, mother was 17 years and four years before her marriage with son

EDWARD GRAY, Yarmouth, probably son of the first John of the same. He married 16 July 1684, Meletiah, daughter of George Lewis of Barnstable, had Priscilla, born 8 October 1686; Gideon, 6 September 1688; John, 26 July 1691; Meletiah, 6 June 1694; and Mercy, 13 April 1696.

EDWARD GRAY, Boston, a youth, apprentice 1686, was from Lancashire. He married 1699, Susanna Harrison, had several children of which one was Harrison Gray, the distinguished loyalist, Treasurer of the Province. By second wife married 1714, Hannah Ellis, had several children of who Ellis Gray, born 1716, Harvard College 1734, the eldest, colleague pastor of a church in Boston with William Welstead, died 17 January 1753, before his father.

GIDEON GRAY, Yarmouth, son probably of John Gray the first of the same, removed

HENRY GRAY, Fairfield 1643. He married Lydia Frost, daughter of William Frost. He was Representative 1656 and 57. He died 1658, leaving Jacob, Henry, Levi, William, and Sarah. He had also Mary, named in the will of her grandfather Frost, who died probably before her father. Jacob had share in division of land 1670.

JOHN GRAY, Fairfield, brother of Henry Gray. He married widow Elizabeth Watson, daughter of William Frost, had two children remembered in the will of the grandfather Frost.

JOHN GRAY, Yarmouth 1643. He married Hannah Lumpkin, perhaps daughter of William Lumpkin, had Benjamin, born 7 December 1648; William, 5 or 10 October 1650; and probably Mary; Edward; John; and Gideon. He died about 1674. Mary married 13 June 1670, Benjamin Ryder.

JOHN GRAY, Harwich, son of John Gray of Yarmouth. He had Lot; Susanna; Hannah; Lydia; Sarah; Thomas; Samuel; Mehitable; Andrew; Ann, died young; Elisha; Joshua; and Ann; possibly also Edward; and Thankful.

JOSEPH GRAY, Taunton. He married 25 February 1668, Rebecca Hill, perhaps daughter of John Hill of Dorchester, or Milton, had Mehitable, born 21 February 1669; Joseph, 31 December 1673, says Colony Record; and Ephraim, 20 June 1673, whose error is compensated by notice of death of Ephraim, 21 June 1675. His wife died 13 May 1676.

JOSEPH GRAY, Salem. He married 10 August 1675, Deborah Williams, had Joseph, born 9 June 1676.

ROBERT GRAY, Salem. By wife Elizabeth, there had baptized Elizabeth, 9 March 1651; Joseph, 9 May 1652; Bethia, 11 June 1654; Robert, 23 May 1658; and Hannah, 26 June 1659. He died 23 January 1662. His widow married 23 June 1663, Nicholas Manning. Other children Thomas, as well as Edward, died it is presumed infants, as not named in his will of 1 January 1662 probated 25 June 1662. That instruction mentioned another daughter Mary, who was born 3 April 1661, made wife executrix, names servant Elizabeth Wicks, gives George Hodges “a quadrant, forestaff, gunter’s scale, and pair of compasses.” See Essex Institute History Collections I. 143. One

ROBERT GRAY, it is said, from Salem. Besides Mary; all named in his will of 1 January 1662, soon after which he died as his inventory was taken 5 February 1662. He was fined as a Quaker at Salem 1669. Phippen, in his excellent notes on Old Planters, History Collections of Essex. Inst. I. 188, has confused him with the preceding. Perhaps the same married 8 March 1669, Hannah Holt, and had Catharine, born 15 July 1670; Henry, 17 January 1672; Jemima, 23 December 1673, died soon; and Hannah, 30 January 1675. He may have died at Andover, 1718, aged 84.

ROBERT GRAY, Salem, probably son of the first Robert Gray. He married 7 August 1685, Sarah Glover, probably daughter of John Glover of the same, had John, born 2 May 1686; Samuel, 15 April 1691; and Sarah, 22 August 1695; but I know no more of him.

SAMUEL GRAY, Salem. He married 28 December 1671, Abigail Lord, had Abigail, or by another called Hannah, born 30 August 1672, who died the same year.

SAMUEL GRAY, Boston. By wife Susanna Langdon, had Samuel, born October 1684; Elizabeth, 21 December 1685; Joseph, 6 December 1687; Susanna, 3 January 1689, died soon; Rebecca, 26 January 1690; John, 16 August 1692; Ebenezer Gray, 31 October 1697, Harvard College 1716; James, 4 January 1699; and Susanna, again, 8 July 1703.

SAMUEL GRAY, Boston, goldsmith, removed to New London. He married Lucy Palmes, daughter of Edward Palmes, and he died 26 May 1713, under 29 years old.

THOMAS GRAY, Salem 1626. He came with Conant, says Felt, but on next page he quotes deposition to prove that he purchased Nantasket in 1622, of which we may doubt at least the date. He was an unruly subject punished by the government in 1630, 31, 32, 38, 39, and 1640, but still at Marblehead 1648. It is not known that he had wife or children but he kept a house.

THOMAS GRAY, Plymouth 1643, elder brother of Edward Gray of the same. He died not 29 November 1652, as is told in Genealogical Registrar 317, but died 7 June 1654.

WILLIAM GRAY, Salem. He had wife 1666, and no more is known. Nineteen of this name had, in 1834, been graduates at Harvard, four at Yale, one at Dartmouth College, and six at other New England Colleges.

NATHANIEL GRAYGOOSE, Boston 1640, a single man, when administered 2 August 1640 into the church.

EZEKIEL GRAZILLIER, Boston. He was probably a Huguenot, who by wife Mary, had Ezekiel, born 8 October 1688. In reasonable conjecture as his name does not appear among taxpayers 1695, he removed perhaps to the south.

ANDREW GRELE, or ANDREW GREELEY, Salisbury, an original proprietor. By wife Mary, had Philip, born 21 September 1644; Andrew, 10 December 1646; Mary, 16 July 1649; Joseph, 5 February 1652; and Benjamin, 9 December 1654. He was of Haverhill 1669, and he died 30 June 1697.

ANDREW GRELE, or ANDREW GREELEY, Salisbury, son of the preceding. He married 12 June 1673, Sarah Brown, daughter of Henry Brown, had Andrew, born 8 October 1674, who died at Salisbury 16 November 1693; Henry, 28 September 1676; Mary, 5 December 1678; Abigail, 24 June 1681; Sarah, 21 October 1685; Rachel, 19 May 1688; Hannah, 29 July 1692; and Judith, 13 June 1696. He was freeman 1690, and he died 26 November 1736.

JOSEPH GRELE, or JOSEPH GREELEY, Haverhill 1677, son probably of the first Andrew Grele, took oath of allegiance 11 December of that year

NATHANIEL GRELE, or NATHANIEL GREELEY, Salisbury 1649, perhaps brother of the first Andrew Grele.

PHILIP GRELE, or PHILIP GREELEY, Salisbury, son of the first Andrew Grele. He married 17 February 1670, Hannah Ilsley, daughter probably of John Ilsley, had John, born 16 January 1671; Jonathan, 15 February 1673; Sarah, 21 March 1676; Mary, 5 June 1679; Philip, 25 December 1681; Joseph, 24 November 1683; and Ruth, 3 October 1684. He was freeman 1690.

BARTHOLOMEW GREEN, Cambridge, freeman 14 May 1634. He came the year before (1633) and died the year following (1635) when making preparation to remove with major part of his neighborhood to Connecticut as is said. But his widow Elizabeth, who died 28 October 1677, aged 88, and children Samuel, Nathaniel, Sarah, wife of Thomas Longhorn, and Phebe, were all of Cambridge church 1658.

BARTHOLOMEW GREEN, Boston, youngest child of the first Samuel Green of Cambridge, was a printer of no small note for issue of the first newspaper on our continent April 1704, and so in our time more thought of than his father for the wonderful Bible. He was Deacon of the third or Old South Church, and died 28 December 1732. Next Thursday the newspaper from his office contained a compacted memoir, in which his father is made to vouch, perhaps unduly, for several things, among others, nineteen children, eleven by first wife eight by second, when by the record we are led to count seven by one, six by the other. Even the birthday of the proprietor may be thought a year too early.

BARTHOLOMEW GREEN, Charlestown, son of the first Jacob Green of the same. By wife Maria Mather, daughter of Reverend Increase Mather, had son Mather and daughter Maria, baptized 15 October 1693. He may have had no more.

BENJAMIN GREEN, Warwick, son of the first Thomas Green of the same. He married Susanna Houlden, seventh daughter of Randall Houlden, had Benjamin.

DANIEL GREEN, Wickford 1671, owned jurisdiction of Rhode Island 20 May 1671 with other inhabitants of that Narraganset country. He was probably the same who by wife Rebecca had Peleg, born 1690; Daniel, 1692; Jonathan, 1694; Rebecca, 1696; Rachel, 1698; Sarah, 1700; and Jonathan, again, 1705. But who was his father is not seen.

DAVID GREEN, Providence, son by his second wife of the first James Green. He married a Slocum, perhaps daughter of Giles Slocum the second, had David. By second wife who was a Barber, had Jonathan, Joseph, and several daughters.

HENRY GREEN, Reading, called by Winthrop "a scholar," but we know not at which of the Universities he was bred. He had been, in 1643, invited to go to Martha's Vineyard by its first settler but went not. He married Frances Stone, eldest daughter of Deacon Simon Stone, had Joanna and Nathaniel. He was the earliest minister of Reading, ordained 5 November 1645, and died 11 October 1648. His widow married as the will of father shows.

HENRY GREEN, Ipswich 1641, was perhaps the freeman of 13 May 1640, for I can hardly suppose it possible, though Farmer gave it without suspicion, that the Reverend Henry would have failed of his prefix of respect from the secretary.

HENRY GREEN, Hampton 1644. He was, perhaps, the counselor to the tyranny of Cranfield 1685. He married 1691, probably for second or third wife widow Martha Page. He died 5 August 1700, aged about 80.

HENRY GREEN, Malden, son of the first Thomas Green. He married 11 January 1672, Esther Hasey, perhaps daughter of William Hasey, had Henry, born January 1673; Esther, September 1674; Lydia, 11 August 1685; Jacob, 9 May 1689, besides Joseph, Daniel, and Dorcas, probably all before Lydia. He died 19 September 1717. His widow died 1740.

JABEZ GREEN, Providence, brother of David Green of the same. He married 16 May 1697, Mary Barton, daughter of Benjamin Barton, had James, Jabez, Nathaniel, Benjamin, Rufus, John, and a daughter by first wife, and another daughter by second wife. Nathaniel Green his son, was father of the General Nathaniel Green of the army of the Revolution.

JACOB GREEN, Charlestown, son of John Green of the same, born in England, came with him. He had wife Elizabeth Long, daughter of the second Robert Long, and children Jacob, born 11 October 1654; Joseph, who died 26 August 1657; John; Mary, baptized 13 May 1662; Bartholomew, 14 February 1664; Dorcas, 31 December 1665; Joseph, again, 5 April 1668. He was of artillery company 1650, freeman 1650, and Representative 1677. He had second wife Mary Bartholomew, widow of Matthew Whipple, daughter of William Bartholomew.

JACOB GREEN, Charlestown, son of the first Jacob Green. By wife Mary Robinson, had Caleb, baptized 29 April 1683; Dorcas, 14 December 1684; Joseph, 14 August 1687; Mary, 29 July 1688; Joseph, again, 15 May 1690; Benjamin, 26 May 1695; Bartholomew, 29 November 1696; and Joseph, again, 22 October 1699.

JAMES GREEN, Charlestown 1634, freeman 1647, and of course his name is among the members of the church yet not found among householders. He had wife Elizabeth, sons John and James, and lived on Mistick side. He died 29 March 1687, aged 77.

JAMES GREEN, Warwick, son of John Green the first of Providence, born in England, was freeman 1655. He married Deliverance Potter, daughter of Robert Potter. He had second wife Elizabeth Anthony, daughter of John Anthony. He died 27 April 1698. He is called the progenitor of General Nathaniel Greene, the soldier of the Revolution. By the first wife he had James, born 6 June 1658; Mary, 8 September 1660; Elisha, 7 March 1662; and Sarah, 27 August 1663. By the second married 3 August 1665, Peter, 25 August 1666; Elizabeth, 17 October 1668, John, 1 February 1671, died young; Jabez, 17 May 1673; David, 24 June 1677; Thomas, 11 November 1682; John, again, 30 September 1685; and Susanna, who may have been born before either of the last two, being mentioned in the will of her father as under age of 18. Mary married 19 February 1685, James Reynolds of Narraganset; Sarah married Henry Reynolds; and Elizabeth married a Reynolds, perhaps brother of other two, though I have seen a genealogy that says she married a Hull.

JAMES GREEN, Boston, son of James Green the first, a cooper. At Dorchester he married 19 November 1661, Rebecca Jones, daughter of Thomas Jones, had Elizabeth, born 14 November 1662; James, 15 December 1664; Thomas, 2 January 1667; Richard, 7 April 1669; John, 24 February 1672; Esther, 27 September 1674; and Samuel, 20 July 1680. He was freeman 1683. By wife Ann, had Rebecca, 19 May 1688. He removed about 1710, to Barnstable, there died about 1731.

JAMES GREEN, Warwick, eldest son of the first James Green of the same. He married 29 January 1689, Mary Fones, daughter of Captain John Fones of Kingstown, had Fones, James, Daniel, Elisha, John, Jeremiah, Samuel, Mercy, Deliverance, and Mary.

JOB GREEN, Warwick, son of the first John Green of the same. He married a Sayles, daughter perhaps of first John Sayles, had Job, Christopher, Daniel, Philip, Amy, Phebe, Mary, and Catharine.

JOHN GREEN, Charlestown. He came in the James from London 1632, arriving 12 June 1632, with wife Perseverance Johnson and three children, John, Jacob, Abigail, Sarah Jones, a servant and Joseph Greene, of whom we may presume that he was a relation, perhaps apprentice. Winthrop says the ship brought twelve passengers and in the Custom house paper we have the names of two, besides Volume II. The seven here mentioned. His wife was daughter of Reverend Francis Johnson, it is said, a puritan of eminence, who had fled to Amsterdam. She with her husband joined the church 29 March 1633, and he was made freeman three days after, calling on the record Sergeant, but his military distinction was sunk in the more important title of Ruling Elder, the only one Charlestown church ever had. He was some time town clerk, and selectman twelve years beginning in 1646. He died 22 April 1658 says the gravestone or May 1658, aged 65. His will of 21 April 1658 names wife Joanna Shatswell, daughter of John Shatswell of Ipswich, and as she had brought him good estate that had lessened in his hands, he gave her most of his property. He names in it grandsons John and Jacob, sons of his son Jacob, granddaughter Joanna, child I suppose, of Richard Shatswell of Ipswich, called by him son-in-law. He had three children at Charlestown, but lost three also, and the survived were John, Jacob, and Mary, this last born 1, baptized 6 April 1634. So much was this name early spread at Malden, that in the remonstrance against the action of the General court upon the case of Reverend Mr. Matthews, their minister signed by thirty-six females, in 1651, three were named Elizabeth and one, Margaret, Green.

JOHN GREEN, Roxbury, lived with Daniel Brewer. He died before 14 February 1639.

JOHN GREEN, Providence 1636, may be that surgeon who came from Southampton in the James, about 6 April 1636 and arrived at Boston 3 June 1635. He had been of Salisbury, in Wilts. He brought wife and five children: John, born 1620; Peter; James, 1629; Thomas, 1631; and Mary, probably older than the last two. He partook largely in the exertions of Gorton and his friends to obtain security for their worldly as well as spiritual rights, and went to negotiate in London in 1644 for Narraganset, of which Warwick was the chief settlement with full success. He died between 28 December 1658, the date of his will, and 7 January 1659, when it was probated. The wife, brought from England, and mother of all the children died 1643, at Conanicut, where she had sought refuge in consequence of her sufferance when the Massachusetts forces came to Gorton's plantation and took him and all his adhered prisoners. A second wife was Alice Daniels married in England, but children is not heard of, nor by third wife Philippa, who died 1687, aged 87. Mary married James Sweet. The farm on which he was buried is still enjoyed by his descendants.

JOHN GREEN, who came in the Francis from Ipswich, in County Suffolk 1634, aged 27. He may have been of Salem, died early, leaving widow to husband. Felt says grant of land was made in 1638, but that diligent writer, I. 516, thought the husband was of the company in the James from Southampton a year later. In aid of that conjecture perhaps rather slight, is the fact, that six or seven of the passengers in the more recent ships became inhabitants of Salem. But it is easy to mistake with so common baptized and surnames.

JOHN GREEN, Charlestown, son probably of first John Green, born in England. He was administered of the church 17 April 1642, and freeman 18 May 1642. He digested, from several verbal stories, the account of settlement of the town, who has remarkably misled Prince and other inquirers. The first seven pages, so far from being a contemporary record of exact facts, begin with relation, more or less minute, of what took place thirty-five years earlier. See Young's Chronicles of Massachusetts 387. He had been servant of William Willoughby at Portsmouth, England and after was of his son Francis our Deputy-Governor.

JOHN GREEN, Sandwich 1643. He made his will 29 February 1660, died soon after.

JOHN GREEN, New Haven. He had John, born 26 December 1651. A widow Green among early settlers at New Hampshire was perhaps his mother.

JOHN GREEN, Kittery 1652, submitted to jurisdiction of Massachusetts that year.

JOHN GREEN, a freeman of Massachusetts 1654, may have been of Malden or Cambridge.

JOHN GREEN, Warwick, eldest son of the first John Green of Providence, born in England. He came 1635 with his father. He was freeman 1655. He married Ann Almy, daughter of William Almy, had Peter, William, Job, Samuel, Richard, and four daughters of which Ann married her cousin Thomas Green; one married probably Joseph Torry of Newport; Catharine married Charles Holden; and perhaps Susanna married John Spencer. He was a proprietor of Westerly 1661, one of the councilors to Sir Edmund Andros 1687, was Major, Deputy Governor 1690-1700, and he died 1708.

JOHN GREEN, Narragansett 1664, marked senior, seems to render it necessary to count another John to be junior. There at that time, and it may be that one or both went thither from Newport; or he may be the son perhaps youngest, of the first James Green who married 16 February 1711, Mary Allen, daughter of Increase Allen (but that surname is too common to permit to guess who), and had, as the family report says, David, James, Increase, Job, besides several daughters.

JOHN GREEN, Salem. He married 7 December 1659, Mary Warren, had Abigail, born 22 February 1661; Mary, 1 March 1664; Sarah, 14 December 1666; Elizabeth, 20 February 1668; and John, 28 June 1672.

JOHN GREEN, Malden, son of the earliest Thomas Green of the same. He married 18 December 1660, Sarah Wheeler, daughter of Isaac Wheeler of Charlestown, had Sarah, born September 1662; John, died young; Mary, December 1668; John, again, 21 March 1674; Sarah, again, 14 January 1677. He was freeman 1668, and died 16 October 1707.

JOHN GREEN, Dover or Portsmouth. He married 12 September 1666, Mary Jenkins, daughter of Robert Jenkins, perhaps, or Henry Jenkins.

JOHN GREEN, Cambridge, only son of Percival Green of the same. He married 20 October 1656, Ruth Michelson, daughter of Edward Michelson, had John, born 24 July 1657; Nathaniel, 25 September 1658; Percival Green, born 29 March baptized 1 April 1660, Harvard College 1680, first in the catalogue of this copious name; Ruth, 24 November 1661; Samuel, born 4, baptized 10 May 1663; Elizabeth 22 April 1665, baptized next day; and Edward, 15, baptized 21 April 1667. As in Mitchell's Registrar appears, and, after the termination of that, had Thomas, born 7 March 1669; Jonathan; Bethia, 20 January 1673; Joseph Green, 24 October 1675, Harvard College 1695; Benjamin, 13 August 1677; and Mary; Michelson, also, 14 March 1681 who died infant 21 October 1681. He succeeded his father-in-law as marshal of the Colony. He died 3 March 1692, aged 55. His widow married Samuel Champney. His son John was taken 1681, by the Turks, as we learn from the Diary of Noadiah Russell, sub. 20 April 1682. Edward was a shipmaster, died 1696, unmarried. Bethia married Joseph Hicks, and died 12 April 1708.

JOHN GREEN, Malden 1673, mariner, elder brother of James Green of Boston, freeman 1683. By wife Mary, had Mary, born December 1668; Samuel, 1679, besides Elizabeth and Hannah. He died 22 March 1709.

JOHN GREEN, Newport. He married Mary Jeffrey, eldest daughter of William Jeffrey. He is, perhaps, one who was inhabitant 1655; and another

JOHN GREEN, Woburn. He married 3 July 1671, Sarah Bateman, daughter of John Bateman of Boston, had Sarah, born 6 June 1672; Samuel, 29 January 1674; John, 6 January 1677; Hannah, 4 March 1679; and perhaps he removed.

JONAS GREEN, New London 1694, a shipmaster, of whose family I am ignorant. He married Jane Pygan, daughter of Alexander Pygan, had Samuel, and perhaps other children.

JOSEPH GREEN, Weymouth, maybe he who came 1632 in the James, with first John Green of Charlestown. By wife Elizabeth Whitman, daughter of John Whitman of same, married May 1657, had Joseph, born 2 April 1658; John, 16 July 1661; Elizabeth, 5 April 1664; Mary, 15 August 1667; and Zechary, 7 April 1671.

JOSEPH GREEN, Boston, perhaps son of the first Samuel Green of Cambridge. He married in the spring of 1672, and he died in three weeks.

JOSEPH GREEN, Weymouth, son of Joseph Green of the same. He removed to Scituate 1690, and married 1695, Ann Turner, daughter of John Turner, junior.

JOSEPH GREEN, Salem village now Danvers, son of John Green of Cambridge, ordained 10 November 1698, successor to wretched Mr. Paris. He died 26 November 1715, leaving widow and seven children. He married 16 March 1699, Elizabeth Gerrish, daughter of Reverend Joseph Gerrish of Wenham, had Ann, born 27 November 1699; a child 11 January 1701, Harvard College 1719; died very soon; John, 22 December 1701; Joseph, 12 December 1703; Edward, 1 December 1705, Elizabeth, 8 May 1708; William, 11 August 1710; Benjamin, 1 July 1713; and Ruth, 23 April 1716. His widow married Reverend William Brattle.

NATHANIEL GREEN, Cambridge, son of Bartholomew Green, born in England, and freeman 1645. He had wife Joanna.

NATHANIEL GREEN, Boston. He married 22 June 1657, Mary Houchin, daughter of Jeremy Houchin, had Jeremiah, born 29 December 1659. He was freeman 1665.

NATHANIEL GREEN, Boston, son of Thomas Green the first of Warwick. He married 27 February 1703, Ann Gould, daughter of Thomas Gould, had Thomas, born 4 June 1705; Rufus, 30 May 1707; Nathaniel, 14 May 1709; William, 3 May 1711; and Benjamin, 11 January 1713. He died 8 August 1714; and his widow died 16 January 1728 in her 43 year.

NICHOLAS GREEN, York. He died 1663, leaving widow Susanna, who married Jeremiah Shears, and children whose names are not seen. The inventory was of 23 July 1663.

NICHOLAS GREEN, is the name of a soldier in Moseley's company December 1675.

PERCIVAL GREEN, Cambridge, brother it is supposed of Bartholomew Green the first. He came in the Susan and Ellen 1635, aged 32, with wife Ellen, 32, and two servants. He was freeman 3 March 1636, in the Colony list whimsically perverted to Passevil. He had John, born June 1636; and Elizabeth, April 1639. He died 25 December 1639, when the town record makes the name Perceiveall. His widow Ellen married Thomas Fox; and daughter Elizabeth married 4 April 1656, John Hall of Concord, and died 14 February 1714. Thomas, in History of Print. I. 235, has confused I think, the children of Bartholomew and Percival.

PERCIVAL GREEN, Cambridge, grandson of the preceding, the earliest grandson of this family name at Harvard, a preacher. He died 10 July 1684.

PETER GREEN, Warwick, son of first John Green of Providence, born in England. He came with his father. He married it is said, Mary Gorton, daughter of Samuel Gorton. He was freeman 1655, and died 1659, by drowning, without issue. His widow married probably John Sanford.

PETER GREEN, Warwick, son of John Green the first of Warwick. He married 16 December 1680, Elizabeth Arnold, daughter of Stephen Arnold, had Peter, John, William, Stephen, Elisha, Barbara, and another daughter said to have married Stephen Arnold, not her cousin.

PETER GREEN, Warwick, son of James Green the first of the same (perhaps eldest, by his second wife). He married a Slocum, had several children and he was drowned (who may only be the story of first Peter, his uncle), as the genealogy reports without given any names of children.

RALPH GREEN, Boston. He had John, born 22 December 1642. He perhaps removed to Malden, and there had a child born January 1654.

RICHARD GREEN, Plymouth. He came in the Charity 1622 for Weston's plantation at Weymouth, being brother-in-law of wife, and died soon after landing. See Winslow's Good News from New England in Young's Chronicles of the Pilgrims 299.

RICHARD GREEN, Boston, mariner, perhaps artillery company 1638, but I doubt the record as he was not administrated an habitant before 1654. By wife Rebecca had Rebecca, born 7 August 1665. He died early in 1672.

RICHARD GREEN, Warwick, son perhaps youngest of the first John Green of the same. He married a Sayles, had John, Audrey, Amy, Isabel, Eleanor, and Mary.

RICHARD GREEN, Warwick, of the first Thomas Green of the same. He married a Carder of the same, whether daughter or granddaughter of Richard Carder is unknown, had Richard, Thomas, Mary, Elizabeth, and Welthean.

SAMUEL GREEN, Cambridge, eldest son of first Bartholomew Green in England. He came probably with his father 1632, though a foolish tradition is in print of his coming with Governor Dudley, and after reaching New England taken "empty casks to shelter them from the weather." He was freeman 4 March 1635, and made, not bred, a printer (as is well seen in Thomas's History). He died 1 January 2, aged 87, or, we may believe, something less. By his first wife Jane Bainbridge, daughter of Guy Bainbridge, who died 16 November 1657, he had Elizabeth, born 16 April; Sarah, 7 October 1642; Lydia, 23 March 1645, died soon; Lydia, again, 13 April 1646; Samuel, 6 March 1648; Joseph, 7 November 1649; and Deborah, 19 March 1655. By second wife Sarah Clark, daughter of Elder Jonas Clark, married 23 February 1662, had Jonas, baptized 31 January 1664; Lydia, again, 12 November 1665; Elizabeth born 3 November 1665 (as by the record) died very soon; Bartholomew, 26 October baptized 3 November 1667; Mary, born 6 November 1669; and Dorcas, 6 September 1671. He was town clerk some years, Captain of the town military thirty years, and engaged at the press fifty years, the greatest work, in conjunction with Marmaduke Johnson (sent from London by the Society for Property Gospel), the Indians Bible. He is spoken of by John Dunton, in "Life and Errors," with great kindness.

SAMUEL GREEN, Warwick, son of John Green the first of the same. He married it is said, a Gorton, but that may be a mistake for his uncle Peter. But he had Mary, William, who became the Governor of the Colony Samuel, and Benjamin.

SAMUEL GREEN, Boston, son as Mr. Paige thinks, of John Green, the marshal, of the first Samuel. He married November 1685, Elizabeth Sill, daughter of Captain Joseph Sill, was father of Timothy, one of the earliest printers in Connecticut and progenitor of a line in that art. He died July 1690 of the smallpox, as did his wife at same time.

SAMUEL GREEN, Malden, freeman 1690, son of the first Thomas Green of the same. He married 1666, Mary Cook, only child of Richard Cook of the same, had Samuel, born January 1668; Thomas, 1669; John, 1 April 1672; William, August 1674; Martha, 1683; Elizabeth, 16 November 1687; Isaac, 20 May 1690; besides Mary, David, and Jonathan. He had second wife Susanna, but the first wife lived to 24 November 1715. He died 31 October 1724.

THOMAS GREEN, Ipswich 1648, may have been brother of Henry Green of the same; but as nothing is ever heard of either, they may be only casual visitors.

THOMAS GREEN, Malden. He had wife Elizabeth who died August 1658. He married 5 September 1659, Frances Wheeler, widow of Richard Cook, who had been daughter of Isaac Wheeler. But probably by former wife only had children: Thomas, the eldest 3; John, born about 1632; William, about 1635; Henry, November 1638; all probably born in England; Samuel, April 1645; besides Elizabeth, Mary, perhaps both brought from England; Hannah; Martha; and Dorcas, 1 May 1653. He died 19 December 1667. Hannah married 5 November 1666, Joseph Richardson of Woburn.

THOMAS GREEN, Malden, not son of the preceding. By wife Margaret Call, perhaps daughter of the first Thomas Call, who died 22 June 1667, had Thomas, born 1 April 1653; John, 26 January 1659; Ephraim; Mary; and Elizabeth all minors, named in his will of 25 February 1674, of whose son Thomas and brother Thomas Call were executors. He died 25 May 1674. He had married 19 August 1667, Elizabeth Webb for second wife, and may have been the freeman of 1670.

THOMAS GREEN, Malden, son of the first Thomas Green of the same. He married Rebecca Hills, daughter of Joseph Hills, had Rebecca, born 1654; Thomas, February 1656, died young; Hannah, 16 October 1658, died soon; Hannah, again, 24 February 1660; and Samuel, 5 October 1670. He was probably the freeman of 1671. His will of 13 February 1672, on which day he died, probated 2 April 1672, made wife Rebecca executrix, names children all minors, and brother John Wait overseer. The widow died 6 June 1674.

THOMAS GREEN, Providence, youngest son of the first John Green of the same. He came with his father 1635, in the James from Southampton to Boston, arriving 3 June 1635. He removed with his father to Warwick. Married 10 June 1659, Elizabeth Barton, daughter of Rufus Barton of Warwick who died 20 August 1693, and had Elizabeth, born 12 July 1660; Thomas, 14 August 1662; Benjamin, 10 January 1666; Richard, 5 March 1667; Welthean, 23 January 1670; Rufus, 6 January 1673; and Nathaniel, 10 April 1679.

THOMAS GREEN, Warwick, son of Thomas Green of the same. He married Ann Green, daughter of his uncle, second John Green, had, besides several daughters, John of Portsmouth, Rhode Island, which perpetuated the name by a dozen children.

TOBIAS GREEN, Hull, 1675, was after of Charlestown, called a wool comber in 1712.

WILLIAM GREEN, Charlestown 1640, freeman 1644, was of the part which became Woburn. By wife Hannah, had Mary, born 20 January 1644; Hannah, 7 February 1647; John, 11 October 1649; William, 22 October 1651. The father died 7 January 1654.

WILLIAM GREEN, Malden, son of the first Thomas Green of the same. He married 12 September 1659, Elizabeth Wheeler, daughter of Isaac Wheeler of Charlestown. But another record makes the marriage on 13 January 1660. He was freeman 1668. His children were William, born 1661; Isaac; John, October 1667; Elizabeth, November 1668; and Sarah, 11 May 1671. He had second wife married 6 February 1695, Isabel Farmer, widow of James Blood, daughter of John Farmer. He died 30 December 1705; and his widow died 3 March 1737.

WILLIAM GREEN, Groton. By wife Mary, had William, born 13 July 1665; Ann, 12 May 1667; John, March 1669; Eleazer, 20 May 1672; Elizabeth, 11 March 1680; and Hannah, 10 April 1683.

WILLIAM GREEN, Woburn. By wife probably named Hannah, had William, born 9 August 1675; Francis, 30 November 1678; Ebenezer, 18 July 1680; Mehitable, 30 June 1682, died at 15 years; Hannah, 7 October 1684, died soon, perhaps; Mary, 1 November 1686; Samuel, 18 July 1689; Jacob, 14 October 1691; and Joseph, 14 April 1694. The stocks of Greens in our country are not exhausted; and perhaps never may be all brought into a work like this, on account of their number. Very early there was, besides the Salem widow, a widow Green at Roxbury, as the church record proves, and we may well imagine that she came so from England for perhaps the Jane, who married 25 December 1639, Martin Stebbins, and the Mary, who married 26 August following Thomas Griggs, both at Roxbury were, one or both, her children. In 1635, Thomas Green, a youth of 15, embarked in the Hopewell, Captain Bundock, at London, to come hither, fellow passenger with Astwood, Ruggles, Payson, Whittemore, and the Eliot’s, who all sat down at the same place. Another widow with family of three was at New Haven 1643, may have been mother of John, but who was her husband will not be easy to learn. Especially hard has been the gathering of the Malden families and those of the four, five, or six Thomas’s. Wholly vain would it be, to discriminate in such a publication, the families by final e or without it, in all contemporary MSS. Letters or records of the elder days, each individual be found with either termination. Twenty-nine of this name, with both forms, had, in 1834, been graduates at Harvard, of which nine had been ministers, two at Yale, of which one was minister, and thirty-one at the other New England Colleges, of which one had been minister.

PETER GREENFIELD, Salem, perhaps son of Samuel Greenfield, in 1668 signed petition to the General court.

SAMUEL GREENFIELD, Salem, a weaver, of Norwich, County Norfolk. He came in the Mary Ann from Yarmouth 1637, aged 27, with wife Barbara, 35, two children Mary and Barbara, besides John Teed, a servant 19. He was a short time at Ipswich, but of Hampton 1639, and of Exeter 1645. He married second wife Susan Wise, daughter of Humphrey Wise. He had grant of land at Salem, but perhaps did not take it.

SAMUEL GREENHILL, Cambridge. He came in May 1634? with wife and son Thomas, not then weaned, who had been baptized 20 January 1633, at Staplehurst, County Kent. He was freeman 4 March 1635. He went with the body of emigration to Hartford next year, there died soon, leaving widow Rebecca, who married Jeremy Adams, and two children Rebecca, who married 4 October 1649, John Shepard, and Thomas, who died 1653 unmarried but leaving a will. He came in the same ship with Simon Willard.

JOHN GREENLAND, Charlestown 1644. By wife Lydia, had John, born 16 October 1644 who, or his father, was of Malden. He was freeman 1678. His will of 1 May 1685, probated 27 March 1691, names sons John, and Daniel, daughters Elizabeth and Ireland, probably wife of John.

EDMUND GREENLEAF, Newbury, a dyer. He brought about 1635 wife Sarah Dole, who was, it is said, named Dole, perhaps sister of Richard Dole the first, and children Elizabeth, who married 1642, or earlier, Giles Badger, and, next, 16 February 1648, Richard Brown; another daughter Judith, born 1628, who married here Henry Somerby, and, next, 2 March 1653, Tristram Coffin, junior; Stephen, 1630; and Enoch; perhaps also Daniel; all born in England. He was freeman 13 March 1639, and head of the military under Gerrish 1644. He removed about 1650 to Boston, was administered an inhabitant 27 September 1654, and died 1671.

He was freeman 1677, a Captain, Representative 1676 and 86; and died 1 December 1690, by drowning at Cape Breton. Probably this was one of the consequences of the sad crusade of Sir William Phips to Quebec. His widow died 16 January 1718, aged 89. Elizabeth married 24 September 1677, Thomas Noyes.

STEPHEN GREENLEAF, Newbury, eldest son of the preceding. Was a Captain. He died at grand age 13 October 1743.

He made his will 24 July 1678, bound on a voyage, which was not probated before 1 February 1686, when his widow had been some years married to Timothy Prout.

WILLIAM GREENOUGH, Boston, son of the preceding. He married July 1696, Elizabeth Mather, daughter of Reverend Increase Mather, and thus furnished the opportunity for that pleasant relation in the Magnalia VI. 87, of the piety of the child Ann, sister of this third William, who died at 5 years old. He probably had no children and his widow married 6 October 1703, Josiah Byles. Four of this name had been graduates 1828 at Harvard and four at other New England Colleges.

THOMAS GREENSLAD, THOMAS GREENLY, THOMAS GREENSLATE, or THOMAS GREENSLEDGE, Scarborough 1658, Salem 1668. He died July 1674. Compare Willis, I. 64, with Genealogical Registrar V. 264, and IX. 85.

A millwright of much esteem, he brought children perhaps one or more already married in England, Ann, who was wife of Robert Pierce, outlived him almost 31 years and he died 31 December 1695, says Blake's Annals, and the gravestone about 104 years, so perhaps the oldest tenant of that mansion. Ursula, wife of Hugh Batten, and she came 1635, aged 32, with her maiden name, as company to her sister Mary, who was wife of Thomas Millet, and passengers in the Elizabeth; and Catharine, wife of William Daniel; had division of land 1652; was then old.

SAMUEL GREENWOOD, Boston, son of Nathaniel Greenwood. He married Elizabeth Bronsdon, daughter of Robert Bronsdon, had Elizabeth, born 18 October 1687, died in few days; and, it is said, eight other children: Samuel Greenwood, Harvard College 1709; Isaac Greenwood, baptized 17 May 1702, Harvard College 1721, the unhappy first Professor at that seminary in the Hollis chair of the Mathematics; Miles, born 1705; Nathaniel, baptized 23 March 1707; and Joseph, 20 August 1710.

Eight of this name (which is spelled Greenhood in the Cambridge record), had, in 1834, been graduates at Harvard and one at Dartmouth College.

JOHN GREET, Westfield. He married a daughter of Edmund Hart, had John, born 1 January 1671. Perhaps he came from Weymouth with Hart but he removed.

MATTHEW GRENNELL, Portsmouth, Rhode Island, among freeman of 1655. See Grinnell.

CHARLES GRICE, or CHARLES GRISE, Braintree, freeman 1651. He had wife Margery provided for in his will of 9 November 1661, probated 12 November 1663, a son David then in England, of which it was so uncertain whether he would come hither within three years after death of testator's wife that testator would give to either son that would come of his brothers John and William, and if neither of them would come, within three years after notice, then all his real estate in fee to son-in-law William Owen. Whether Owen had married a daughter of Grice, or Grice had married the mother of devisee in this contingency, I hope the historian of Braintree will discover, or, at least, show, if the estate became vested in this son-in-law.

JOSIAH GRICE, or JOSIAH GRISE, Boston, brother of the preceding, freeman 1690, died 1691.

The last two were sons, both died before the father. He was freeman 1 April 1634, artillery company 1658, and a Captain.

HUGH GRIFFIN, or GRIFFING, Sudbury, one of the first settlers. He had wife Elizabeth. He was freeman 1645, and he died 21 or 27 June 1656.

On the face of the record as given in Genealogical Registrar XV. 133, it is plainly seen, that it was all made at once; but on page 136 of the same volume a contemporary record inserts Hannah, 12 March 1659, i.e. 1660.

He came from Warwickshire, Kenilworth being his native place, and possibly with Reverend Ephraim Huit. He married Ann Wolcott, daughter of first Henry Wolcott, had two sons and three daughters, but the dates of birth are unknown except that Matthew Griswold, perhaps not the eldest, was born 1653. He was Representative of Saybrook often, and of Lyme after the division of the old town. He called himself 66 years old in 1684, and died January 1699; his widow then 79.

NICHOLAS GROOM, Massachusetts. He died 1651, and Henry Groom (I know not whether father, brother or son) had administration of his estate in Middlesex County.

SAMUEL GROOM, Salisbury 1650, a mariner, in the list of inhabitants dignified with prefix of Mr. went home to London before 1658. He may seem to be that Quaker, who published in 1676, "A Glass for the people of New England" which in a note to his History I. 72, Hutchinson ascribed to Gorton.

CLEMENT GROSSE, Boston, son of Isaac Grosse, born in England, was a brewer.

His will in which he provides for wife and children Isaac and Susan only, was probated 3 May 1655, and set aside by children 25 May 1655. His daughter Lydia married I presume, George Harris of Concord.

EDMUND GROSSE, Boston. He married 19 February 1695, Dorothy Belcher, daughter of Josiah Belcher. He was son of Clement Grosse, and had, I think, no children.

ISAAC GROSSE, Boston 1685, called husbandman, when administered of the church 17 April 1636, disarmed 1637, as a friend of the antinomians, Cotton and Wheelwright. He followed the latter to Exeter, was there a ruler, or man of distinction; but returned to Boston in few years. He died 1649, leaving good estate by his will (of 29 May 1649 shortly before his death), devised among wife and children Edmund, Clement, Matthew, besides grandchildren Isaac, Hannah, Susanna, Thomas, and even an expected child of his son Clement. It made Edmund executor. His widow died 1653.

His will, of 28 December 1693, probated 22 February 1694, gives to son Edward (of whose birth we are ignorant) double portion, and equal shares to others.

MATTHEW GROSSE, Boston. By wife Ann, had says record, Elizabeth, born 30 January 1654, but it is wrong. The child was Edmund's.

SIMON GROSSE, Hingham. He married October 1675, Mary Bond, had Simon, born 11 August 1676; Thomas, 4 November 1678; John, 13 April 1681; Josiah, 2 August 1683; Micah, 20 February 1686; Alice, 26 April 1689; and Abigail, 28 June 1692. Highly probable is that old Isaac was his grandfather but who of the son was his father is not so clear. Descendants are known at Scituate.

THOMAS GROSSE, Boston 1668, probably grandson of first Isaac Grosse, and perhaps son of Clement Grosse. By wife Elizabeth, had Hannah, born 21 August 1672; Elizabeth, 22 January 1674; Abigail, 25 October 1677; Mary, 18 January 1681; Huldah, 13 September 1685; Thomas, 6 December 1686; and Jerusha.

It is spelled Groce in one record or more.

By wife Esther, had William Grosvenor, born 8 January 1673, Harvard College 1693; Susanna, 9 February 1681; a child 4 September 1683, died soon; Ebenezer, 9 October 1684; Thomas, 30 June 1687, died soon; and Joseph, 1 September 1689. He died 26 September 1691. The name is Norman, meaning great hunter, and the England peerage is rich with it. Twelve more of this name had, in 1828, been graduates at other New England Colleges.

JOHN GROTH, if such a name is possible or misprinted for JOHN GROWTH or JOHN GRATH, Salisbury. He married 7 January 1674, Elizabeth Eaton, daughter probably of John Eaton, had Elizabeth, born July 1674. He was administered to practice medicine 1679 at Hampton.

See, also, 3 Massachusetts History Collections VIII. 320-4. See Grow and Groves.

ANDREW GROVER, Malden. He married 7 February 1674, Hannah Hills. He died 24 April 1674, leaving property to Hannah Hills, daughter of Joseph Hills who may have been the mother of the wife or the wife herself, if the disposition of the will were made before marriage. His widow died 30 May 1674.

EDMUND GROVER, Salem 1633. He had Naomi, Mary, and Lydia, all baptized 17 May 1646; and Deborah, 26 March 1648. He lived on Beverly side, perhaps his wife was Margaret, and he may have had other children. He was freeman 1678, and he died June 1683, in 82nd year. Deborah married 1671, John Bennett.

SAMUEL GROVER, of who I know only that he came from London, aged 16 in 1635, by the Truelove.

By will of 1673 provided for wife Ann, and four "motherless children" Nathaniel, Hannah, Sarah, and Ruth, who were his grandchildren and children of Nathaniel Porter. In codicil January 1676, one month before his death, he gave to his daughter Elizabeth, wife of said Nathaniel Porter, and to her son John. Also he gave to his sister Susanna Grant, at Hanwell, near Banbury, Oxford shire, and to his brother John Groves, lived "about 3 miles from Bristol, England, £12 each to be paid, if possibly in "silver of New England currency."

SAMUEL GROW, Ipswich, son of the preceding. By wife Ruth, had Mary, born 17 May 1695; Samuel, 31 August 1696; and Ruth, 14 February 1699. This name to me seems much more likely to be Grove, but in the ancient form of written u for v it was, perhaps, perverted.

GABRIEL GRUBB, Isle of Shoals 1677, or earlier, we may suppose, for he died about that year.

THOMAS GRUBB, Boston, 1633, leather dresser, numbered 160, when he and wife Ann united with the church. He was freeman 4 March 1634. He had daughter Abiah, baptized 5 March 1637, and she died that night; John, born August baptized 2 September 1638; Samuel, 5, baptized 12 December 1641; John, again, died in August 1644; Elizabeth, baptized 30 June 1644, died in 4 months; Heman, 21, baptized 22 February 1646, about 2 days old, died little more than one and a half year. He was of some consequence, and constable in 1646. Most of these children he outlived, for in his will, probated 6 March 1674, in which he calls himself aged about 72, "as appears in a scrawl, taken out of the register where I was baptized". He gave his estate "to the church," but left wife and son the same. Another

THOMAS GRUBB, Boston, perhaps son of the preceding, so left to depend on the children, died 15 July 1692 at Boston.

JOHN GRUMAN, JOHN GRUMMAN, or JOHN GROWMAN, Fairfield, freeman 1664. He had good estate and married Sarah Try, daughter of Michael Try, with which he had gained it; long after 1670, and died without children though he had had some.

JAMES GUERNSEY, Suffield. He married 17 February 1693, Mary Tilton, widow of Joseph Eastman, daughter of Honorable Peter Tilton, had many quarrels with his wife but probably no children by her.

JOHN GUILD, Dedham, weaver. He married Elizabeth Crook, who is not of my acquaintance. He was perhaps freeman 1643, spelt Guile. He died October 1682. He had also estate in Wrentham and Medfield. He left children Samuel, born 4 September 1647; John, and Elizabeth.

JOHN GUILD, Wrentham, son of the preceding. By wife Sarah, had Sarah, who died 7 December 1682; Sarah, again, born 2 June 1683; Elizabeth, 7 July 1685; Joanna, 4 November 1687; John, 7 October 1690; and Josiah, 14 July 1694.

SAMUEL GUILD, Dedham, brother of the preceding, a soldier of Moseley's company December 1675. He married 29 September 1676, Mary Woodcock, probably daughter of John Woodcock. He was freeman 1678. Nine of this name have been graduates at Harvard.

WILLIAM GULL, Wethersfield 1649. He married after 1654, Elizabeth Smith, widow of Nathaniel Foote, daughter of Lieutenant Samuel Smith. He had no sons but several daughters certainly Mary and Ann before he removed to Hadley in 1663. There he had Esther, born 21 November 1665; and Mercy, 27 June 1668. He was freeman 1673. Ann married 1680, Jonathan Root, is named in the will of her father as living 1701, when he died and names also, as living his wife Elizabeth, daughters Mary, wife of Robert Bardwell, who was married 21 November 1676; Mercy, wife of Jeremiah Alvord; and a child of his deceased daughter Esther, who had been wife of Joseph Gillet.

ANTHONY GULLIFORD, ANTHONY GULLIFER or ANTHONY GULLIVER, Dorchester 1656. He lived in that part which is now Milton, and was freeman 1666. He had wife Elinor Kingsley, daughter of Stephen Kingsley, and many children of which we know the dates of but few: Stephen; Samuel, who died 1676, and Stephen administered his estate; Lydia; Jonathan, born 27 October 1659, a man of some distinction and Representative for Milton; Nathaniel; Hannah; Mary; and Elizabeth. He made his will early in 1704 but lived to 28 November 1706, aged 87. Of the daughters Lydia married 25 or 29 October 1675, James Leonard; Hannah married a Tucker; and Mary married an Atherton. This name, from the first form, was in colony record of freeman Gullifer and easily became Gulliver, but in Genealogical Registrar IX. 315, Caliphar. A letter of Pope to Swift, 23 Mar 1727-8, Bishop Warburton's Edition 1766, Volume IX. 76, begins: "I send you a very odd thing, a paper printed in Boston, in New England wherein you'll find a real person, a member of their Parliament, of the name of Jonathan Gulliver.--The accident is very singular, that these two names should be united." He then expends some impertinent criticism, as, if Jonathan were an un-baptized not christened till of full age; when we know the name was given before either of the wits was born. Captain Lemuel Gulliford himself, though the most celebrated of the progeny of Jonathan Swift, was not a fictitious person, only, on this side of the water; but our Dorchester namesake made no claim of equality with the renowned traveler. In other worlds than our own.

JACOB GULLY, Boston. By wife Mercy, had Jacob, born 25 June 1677; daughter Mary, 18 April 1680; and no more is known .

ABEL GUNN, Derby, son of Jasper Gunn, was a physician. He married about 1670, Mary Smith, daughter of John Smith of Milford, had no children. By his will of 19 May 1688 he gave property to cousin Abel. His widow married a Davis.

DANIEL GUNN, a Scot, one of the unhappy prisoners from the field of Worcester, Cromwell's crowning mercy, 3 September 1651, hipped at London, in November 1651 with two hundred and seventy-one others in like sad estate on the John and Sarah, to be sold at Boston, where in May 1652 they came. He was bought by a Newbury man, was one of the few that shortly outlived his misery. In 1654 he was tried on the capital charge of adultery with Alice Cheater, wife of John Cheater, and was acquitted. But being then sick, he was sentenced for wantonness with her, to be whipped when he is capable of it. As there was hope of his cure, the Court ordered Lunerius to be employed about him. I know not, that he was whipped, but finded by the record. He died that year 1654.

DANIEL GUNN, Milford, son of Jasper Gunn. He married Deborah Coleman, daughter of Thomas Coleman of Hatfield, had no children but he died 1690, and his widow died December 1703.

JASPER GUNN, Roxbury, came in the Defence, 1635, aged 29, with Ann, 25, perhaps his wife though the church record not mentioned her, which may therefore lead us to suppose her a sister. He was freeman 25 May 1636. At the London custom house the name is written Goun. Perhaps he visited Milford 1639. After ten years he removed to Hartford, there was a physician some time, and after 1657, removed to Hartford where by heedless reading of the record one might think he lived eighteen years before. He died 1670, leaving wife Christian, who died 1690; one daughter Mehitable Fenn, wife of the second Benjamin Fenn; and our sons: Jobanna, Abel, Daniel, and Samuel.

JOBANNA GUNN, Milford, son of Jasper Gunn. He died 1699, leaving wife Hannah, and children Jasper, aged 6 years; Christian, 4; and Daniel, 1.

JOHN GUNN, Westfield, son of Thomas Gunn. He married 22 1679, Mary Williams, had Thomas, born 14 December 1680; John, 5 May 1682; Mary, 9 January 1685; Daniel, 21 March 1687; Mary, 14 March 1691; and Aaron, 29 August 1694. His wife died 26 November 1711.

NATHANIEL GUNN, Hartford, perhaps son of Thomas Gunn, may have been born in England. He married 17 November 1658, Sarah Day, daughter of Robert Day, lived not long at Branford. His widow married 24 November 1664, Samuel Kellogg of Hatfield.

SAMUEL GUNN, Milford, son of Jasper Gunn. He died 1699, leaving wife Hannah, and children Jasper, aged 6 years; Christian, 4; and Daniel, 1.

SAMUEL GUNN, Hatfield, only child of Nathaniel Gunn. He married 1684 or 1685, Elizabeth Wyatt, youngest daughter of the first John Wyatt, had besides six daughters: Nathaniel, born 1693; Samuel, 1696; Abel, 1700; and John, 1707. He removed 1714 to Sunderland, was Deacon, and he died 1755 in 93rd year when all his children were married and he was surrounded by descendants.

He had Elizabeth, who died August 1640; Elizabeth again, born 14 October 1640, died young; Deborah, 21 February 1642; Mehitable, 28 July 1644; and John, 8 July 1647. He removed to Westfield, there his wife died 28 November 1678; and he died 26 February 1681. Deborah married 5 November 1659, Timothy Thrall of Windsor; Mehitable married 22 October 1663, David Ensign, and after bearing five children was, for his ill conduct, divorced and some years later, 1685, was second son of Isaac Sheldon of Northampton.

HUGH GUNNISON, or HUGH GULLISON, Boston 1634, on administration at the church 1635 is titled "served to our brother Richard Bellingham," and was freeman 25 May 1636. By wife Elizabeth, who died 25 January 1646, had Sarah, born 14 February baptized 4 March 1638; Elizabeth, baptized 19 April 1640; and Deborah, born October 1642, says town record but baptized 25 September says the church, besides two sons Joseph and Elihu, of which the last two were sons of Sarah, administered of our church May 1647, born 31 March 1649, and 12 February 1650, respectively. She brought in for baptism on 23 May 1647 her child by Henry Lynn. See Lynn. In 1646 he was of artillery company in 1651 called vintner, He sold his estate the King's Arms, removed to Kittery, and was Representative for Wells in 1654. I presume his son Elihu was a proprietor of Falmouth in 1689, had a garrison house by Willis, 1. 200, named Gullison, but the baptized name truly given, yet in Genealogical Registrar VII. 120, when his marriage is imperfectly given, it appears Gullison; and in III. 25 quoting the same transaction of the Council of war, are turned into Elisha Gallison. See Gallison.

LESTER GUNTER, a youth of 13, embarked at London, 1635, for New England in the Truelove.

JOHN GUPPIE, JOHN GUPPY, or JOHN GUPPEY, Weymouth, freeman 1653. He removed to Charlestown, where in 1678 was "goodman Guppy," then 60 years old, who had wife Elizabeth, both joined with church 1680. His widow died 26 August 1693.

JOHN GUPPIE, JOHN GUPPY, or JOHN GUPPEY, Salem. There he married 3 June 1669, Abigail Kitchin, perhaps daughter of John Kitchin, and by her had Abigail, born 31 May 1672; and Elizabeth, 3 February 1675. But perhaps this John was son of Reuben Guppie, and not the Weymouth man.

REUBEN GUPPIE, REUBEN GUPPY, or REUBEN GUPPEY, Salem 1648. By wife Ellen, had John, born 12 June 1648, and Reuben, 6 January 1651 as living in 1684, in 85th year.

ROBERT GUPPIE, ROBERT GUPPY, or ROBERT GUPPEY, Salem 1647. Felt. Farmer says the name is found at Dover.

SAMUEL GURLEY, Coventry, son probably of William Gurley of Northampton. He married about 1712, Experience Rust, daughter of Nathaniel Rust of the same, had Esther, born 24 February 1713; Jonathan, 2 April 1715; Samuel, 30 June 1717; Lois, 17 January 1720; Eunice, 14 June 1722; Experience, 25 January 1725; Margaret, 4 May 1727, died young; Mary, and another daughter who died very soon, 7 March 1729; and Abigail, 30 June 1721. He removed to Mansfield, died there 23 February 1760. His widow died 10 July 1768. He was not ancestor of the benevolent agent for colonization of Africa, unless Goodwin strangely omits that great honorary.

WILLIAM GURLEY, Boston, I find named in 1653, but not in register of births or deaths or marriages or of property.

WILLIAM GURLEY, Northampton 1679, brought up in the family of Reverend Solomon Stoddard, but most undistinguished is the tradition that he was born about 1665, though neither parent nor other relatives is known, and was brought from Scotland. He married 1684, Esther Ingersoll, had Samuel, born 6 May 1686, and on 1 or 21 May of 1687 was drowned. His widow married 23 January 1689, Benoni Jones, who with two of her children were killed in the assault on Northampton 13 May 1704, when she was taken, carried to Canada by the Indians, there died.

JOHN GURNEY, Braintree, an early inhabitant, may be that apprentice of John Newgate. He was born 29 September 1615, mentioned by Winthrop II. 345. He died 1663. His wife died 1664.

PETER GURNEY, Weymouth, son perhaps of Richard Gurney of the same, was a soldier December 1675, in Johnson's company.

RICHARD GURNEY, Weymouth. By wife Rebecca Taylor, daughter probably of John Taylor first of the same, had Joseph, born 23 February 1665; and Mary, 9 September 1667. He was freeman 1681.

JOHN GUSTIN, Falmouth. See Augustine. He married at Salem, 10 January 1677, Elizabeth Brown, daughter of John Brown.

He was freeman 27 December 1642. He removed to the east beyond Casco, bought from Indians. Born near mouth of Kennebec river. This may be the same name as Gouch, Gooch, or Gouge, in sound nearly alike.

JOHN GUTTERSON, Andover. He married 14 January 1689, Abigail Buckmaster, had Abigail, who died 21 December 1694; and Samuel, died 19 June 1700.

WILLIAM GUTTERSON, Ipswich 1648. He died 26 June 1666. He had by wife Elizabeth, William, born 20 September 1658, died young; Mary, 8 August 1660; John, 26 March 1662; and Sarah, 3 July 1665. I suppose he may have been son of William Gutterson, whose inventory is by Coffin made 1643.

JOHN GUY, Casco 1663-75, a tenant of Robert Jordan. See Willis, I. 94, 141; and Genealogical Registrar V. 264.

NICHOLAS GUY, Watertown. He came in the Confidence of London, 1638, aged 50, with wife Jane, 30, daughter Mary, and two servants from Upton in Hants. He embarked at Southampton, was Deacon, and freeman 22 May 1639. He died 6 July 1649; and his widow lived to 1669. She was executrix of his will, and made her own 16 August 1666, probated 22 December 1669, mentioned her son Joseph Taynter, meaning, no doubt, son-in-law, his four sons and five daughters Joseph, Jonathan, and Simon, Hannah, Rebecca, Sarah, Mary, and Dorothy; son-in-law Henry Curtis, her daughter Mary, his wife with whom the testatrix lived, and the sons Ephraim, John, and Joseph.

THOMAS GWIN, Boston 1660. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Benjamin Gillam, who died 1669, leaving two children.

THOMAS GYLES, Salem. He had daughter Hannah, who married 1650, Thomas Very of Gloucester.

THOMAS GYLES, an active promoter of settlement at Kennebeck, called Pejepscot, now Brunswick, 1666, may have been son of the preceding. He was killed at Pemaquid by the Indians 2 August 1689. He had, besides Samuel, his youngest, then absent, three sons James, the third, then 14, was taken at the same time, and escaped 3 years after, was retaken, and tortured to death. Thomas, the eldest, escaped and John escaped with life, but with ten years of captivity; and many years later, this last printed a memoir of his father in 1736. His (John's) will was probated 6 June 1755. The daughter of Thomas was carried captive and in a short distance conferred with her son John, prisoner, in another canoe, and gave him her parting blessing, and was never again seen by him, and no doubt she died in captivity. The two daughters were taken at the same time, Mary and Margaret, who were redeemed and were afterwards married in Boston.
