(7g) Jonathan Watson
Jonathan was born say 1650 and died in 1714. The provenance of Jonathan has not been determined. There is no evidence that he was the son of the Pilgrims George and Phebe Watson. In his 1900 history of Dover, New Hampshire, John Scales gives Jonathan a first wife, Abigail, the daughter of Rev. Samuel and Elizabeth Dudley. If this is so, she likely had no children. Jonathan was then married, by December 1678, Elizabeth Beard, the daughter of Thomas Beard of Dover. Jonathan was living in Dover in 1676 when he was called a tanner. He owned land on the Upper Neck there, and also near Tole-end. In October 1714 he deeded all of his property to his wife Elizabeth, perhaps preparing for his inevitable death. He was certainly dead by May 1720 when Elizabeth was called a widow, and on 13 Sep 1721 she conveyed property to her sons David, William, and Isaac. She was dead by 1736 when Joseph Thrasher of Hampton sued Isaac Watson for 1/9 of 15 acres, this instrument stating that Jonathan died in 1714. Children, with wife Elizabeth:


 * Elizabeth, b. c. 1680, living in 1714


 * Hannah, b. c. 1682, living in 1714


 * David, eldest son, b. c. 1684, m. c. 1715 Mary DUDLEY, b. c. 1695.


 * William, b. c. 1686, d. Portsmouth, NH 1743, m. (1) Portsmouth, NH 24 June 1714 Martha (_______) Robinson, b. c. 1690, d. c. 1732, the widow of Capt. John Robinson with whom she had two sons. William m. (2) Portsmouth after 1733 Sarah (BRIARD) Manuring, b. Portsmouth 2 Feb 1700/1, living in 1758, the daughter of Elisha Briard and Abigail Drew, and widow of Thomas Mainwaring (who d. Newcastle, NH 1 Oct 1733).  William lived in Dover from birth until 1714 when he moved to Portsmouth.  From about 1720 to 1730 he lived in New York.  He was a sea captain, but for the last 12 years of his life he was a shopkeeper.  He had been elected constable of Portsmouth on 25 March 1738, but hired Charles Norwood to serve in his place the same day.  William was living on 23 Aug 1743 when involved in a court action, but dead the following month, by 28 Sep 1743 when his wife was granted administration on his estate.  William had only two known children, both with first wife:  William, b. c. 1716 and Elizabeth, b. c. 1720.


 * Jonathan, b. c. 1688, living in 1714, but absent from a meeting in Newington, NH in 1715. Nothing more known.


 * Isaac, b. Dover, NH c. 1690, d. Dover 1753, and m. (1) Dover c. 1723 Lillias CHESLEY, b. Dover c. 1695, d. there c. 1741, the daughter of Samuel-3 Chesley (Philip-2-1) and Elizabeth Smith. He (2) c. 1742 Joanna _______, b. c. 1720, d. Dover 28 Oct 1784.  Isaac was a farmer who also dealt in lumber.  He resided in the Cocheco section of Dover along the river.  He and his son Samuel served in the Second Foot Company of Dover in 1740.  Administration of his estate was granted to widow Joanna Watson and son Joseph Watson on 26 April 1753.  The inventory showed a substantial estate of more than 9000 pounds.  Isaac had nine children with his first wife, born c. 1724 to c. 1739, and had two with wife Joanna, baptized in 1742 and 1743.


 * Mary, b. c. 1692, living in 1736, m. Dover, NH 31 July 1711 Joseph THRESHER, b. Salem, Mass. c. 1685, living 1747, the son of Henry Thresher. Mary grew up in Dover, NH, but following her marriage lived in Salem, Mass. where her first child was born.  Soon thereafter, they moved to the part of Hampton, NH that became Hampton Falls in 1719.  They had three known children b. c. 1713 to c. 1720.


 * Alice, b. c. 1695, living in 1742, m. Newington, NH 28 Dec 1716 Eleazer YOUNG, b. Dover, NH 1691, living in 1776, the son of Thomas Young and Mary Roberts. The family lived in the part of Dover that became Madbury in 1755.  They had two known children baptized with their mother on 25 April 1742:  Solomon Young, b. c. 1718 and Lucy Young, b. c. 1720.

No burial location for Jonathan has been found, but he is almost certainly buried on his property in Dover, NH.

(6g) David Watson
David, the son of Jonathan Watson and Elizabeth Beard, was born roughly 1680, d. Dover 1743, and married about 1712 Mary DUDLEY, b. Exeter, NH about 1691, living in 1758, daughter of Samuel Dudley and Elizabeth Thing. David was presumed living on 23 May 1743 when he filed a court action, but dead by 18 Aug 1743 when called deceased in a deed. Mary was still living on 13 April 1758 when named in the will of her brother Samuel Dudley. David was a farmer, weaver, and in holder, residing in Dover, NH his entire life. In the winter of 1707-8 he complained against Edward Evans and Timothy Carie for beating him up at John Hayes' garrison, Evans being convicted. He was a Dover constable from 1718 to 1727, not endearing him to some of his neighbors, and he used the courts to protect his tavern business. David owned land on Silver and Pleasant Streets in Dover, NH, where his tavern stood, not far from the Quaker meeting house. Children, probably all b. Dover:


 * Dudley, b. c. 1713, d. Dover 28 Feb 1770, m. 1736 Christine BAKER, b. Northampton, Mass. 5 June 1716, d. Dover 18 March 1776, daughter of Capt Thomas Baker and Christine Otis. Dudley was a farmer and lived in Dover his entire life, apparently accumulating enough estate to be styled "gentleman" after 1755.


 * Jonathan, b. c. 1716, d. probably in Epping c. 1759, m. Dover c. 1745 Deborah CUSHING, b. Dover 5 Jan 1721/2, d. Dover 3 Feb 1800, daughter of Jonathan and Elizabeth (Cushing) Cushing. Jonathan lived in Dover, but in the summer of 1747 moved to Exeter with his wife, mother, and brother Winthrop.  In April 1752 he sold his Exeter property and moved to Epping, near the Nottingham town line.  He probably died there, but he is called of Brentwood in a 1757 court case.  In 1756 he served at Crown Point during the French and Indian Wars, in the company commanded by his brother-in-law, Capt Nathaniel Doe, in Col Meserve's regiment.  Following his death, Deborah married by 1769, as his second wife, Moses Wingate, b. Dover 27 Dec 1698, d. Dover 9 Feb 1782, son of John and Ann Wingate.


 * Sarah, b. c. 1720, d. after Nov 1765, probably in Vasalboro, Maine, m. in Dover about 1742 Nathaniel DOE, bp at Durham, NH (by Rev. Hugh Adams) 19 Mar 1717/8, son of Sampson Doe and Mary (Hopley) Ayers. Nathaniel was the captain of a company in Col Meserve's regiment at Crown Point in 1756.  His brother-in-law, Jonathan Watson, was in his company.


 * Mary, b. c. 1722, d. 1749+, m. c.1745 William CUSHING, b. Dover, NH 26 Dec 1723, adm 30 Jan 1777, son of Rev. Jonathan and Elizabeth (Cushing) Cushing. They lived in Exeter, NH.


 * Winthrop, b. Dover 11 Jan 1723/4, d. 1777, m. c.1750 Abigail, b. c.1730, d. c.1795. He lived in Dover until 1747 when he, his mother, his brother Jonathan, and likely other siblings moved to Exeter.  His will, dated 25 March 1777, was probated on 27 Aug 1777 in Exeter.


 * Mercy, b. c. 1725, d. 1810+, m. (1749-1753) Benjamin HANSON, b. c.1730, d. 1810+, son of Benjamin Hanson and Mary Ham. They lived in Dover.

(5g) Winthrop Watson
Winthrop, b. Dover, NH 11 Jan 1723/4, d. Exeter, NH 1777, the son of David Watson and Mary Dudley of Dover, New Hampshire. He was married about 1754 to a woman named Abigail, b. c. 1730, d. c. 1795, but her provenance has not been discovered. Winthrop lived in Dover in his early days, and that was his residence in a 9 June 1747 deed, but less than four months later, on 1 Oct 1747 he was called of Exeter, and this was his residence the remainder of his life. His will, dated 25 March 1777, was proved on 27 August of the same year. Following his death, his widow continued to live in Exeter, and was last taxed in 1794. Winthrop appears on all surviving Exeter tax lists from 1763 to 1776, and was in the top 10% in every case, pointing to his affluence. Following his death, his inventory totaled 1857 pounds, a sizable sum for the time. He had the following children, born in Exeter:


 * Dudley, b. 2 Feb 1756, d. Newmarket, NH 26 June 1828, and m. Newmarket 6 April 1780 Anna HILTON, b. Newmarket, NH 12 Aug 1760, d. there 14 July 1845, the daughter of Edward Hilton and Elizabeth Folsom. Dudley served during the American Revolutionary War, and was on the roll of Capt Daniel Gordon's company, Col. Tash's Regiment on 20 Sep 1776, to reinforce the Continental Army in New York.  Dudley was a farmer, ship builder, and merchant or trader.  Dudley was on the 1776 census for Exeter, NH (his uncle Dudley Watson was of Dover), but in 1789 he moved to Newmarket, and is on the 1800 census there with a sizable family.  He is also found there on the 1810 and 1820 censuses.  He was mentioned in the 1777 will of his father and the 1813 will of his sister Mary.  He and Anna had five children, born 1780 to 1794. He and Anna are buried with several of their children in the town cemetery, Newfields, NH.


 * Winthrop, bapt. 5 Nov 1756, apparently died young.


 * Mary, b. say 1758, was mentioned in the 1777 will of her father. She was living in Exeter with her mother in 1790, but likely after her mother's death she moved to Chichester, NH with her brother David Watson and sister Sally Hook.  She seemed close to her brother David, because of all her siblings mentioned in her will, she only mentioned the children of David.  Her will was dated in Chichester, NH 21 Dec 1813 and proved in Rockingham Co., NH 19 Jan 1814, naming all of her living siblings.


 * Winthrop, bapt. 25 April 1760, was not mentioned in his father's 1777 will.


 * Daniel, b. 28 Feb 1761 (calc from gravestone), d. Epping, NH 9 April 1837, aged 76y 1m 10d. His death record gives his age as 75-1-10, but the tombstone age gives him a birth date that fits more realistically in the sequence of his siblings.  He was married in Epping, c. 1785, Lydia SMITH, b. 1760, d. Epping 17 April 1847, aged 87, daughter of Nathaniel and Mehitable Smith.  Daniel was a Revolutionary War soldier, and served as a private in Capt Jacob Webster's company, Col Reynold's regiment.  He was engaged 15 July 1781, marched on 22 Sep of that year, and arrived in Springfield, Mass. on 27 September.  He left for home on 19 November, and was discharged six days later.  He grew up in Exeter, but moved to Epping in 1786, and was there the remainder of his life.  He was a farmer and innkeeper, and given the title of "gentleman", indicating his wealth and social standing.  In addition to being among the wealthiest residents of Epping (having among the highest tax rate), he held many positions in the town, including surveyor of highways, selectman, assessor, and moderator.  His house was not only a tavern, but also an inn, and it was the location for many meetings, including proprietor's meetings for those preparing to establish new towns.  Daniel's will was dated 7 May 1832 and proved 12 April 1837, naming mostly children of his siblings.  His widow, Lydia, made her will on 15 Nov 1839, proved 12 May 1847, leaving to Smith relatives and to the family of her adopted son.  Daniel and Lydia had no children, but were the adoptive parents of Daniel Watson Ladd (1798-1874), the son of Nathaniel Ladd and Dolly Smith.  Daniel and Lydia are buried in the Central Cemetery in Epping.


 * Stephen, b. c. 1762, d. Acton, Maine Oct 1846, aged 84 He was married in Epping, NH about 1788 Mary "Polly" FOGG, b. Epping 23 June 1770, d. Acton, ME 10 May 1835, aged 64, the daughter of Seth Fogg and Eleanor Philbrick.  He was a Rev. War soldier, and enlisted in May 1780 into Capt Penniman's company of Col Henry Dearborn's 1st New Hampshire Regiment, hired by the town of Brentwood, NH.  He marched with his company to West Point, NY, spent the summer of 1780 in the vicinity of Orange, New Jersy, and was discharged at New York City on 1 Jan 1781.  Stephen lived in Exeter from the time of his birth until 1786 when he moved to Epping.  A few years later, in 1789, he moved to the part of Rochester that was set off as Milton in 1802.  He lived in Wakefield briefly, from 1802 to 1805, then returned to Milton.  Finally, in 1825 he moved to Acton, Maine, where he lived until his death.  He appears on the 1790 and 1800 censuses in Rochester, 1810 in Milton (whose returns were missing in 1820), and on the 1830 census in Actwon.  Stephen was a farmer and trader, and he ran a store, a tavern, and a saw mill. He applied for a pension on 22 April 1832, and it was allowed the following year.  He was mentioned in his father's 1777 will as being under 21 years of age, and was also mentioned in the 1813 will of his sister, Mary.  His wife, Mary, has an original gravestone in the Watson Cemetery on the west side of Milton Mills Road in Acton, and Stephen was honored with a veteran's gravestone in a ceremony held in July 2017.


 * Rebecca, b. say 1766, mentioned in the 1777 will of her father, and called "Rebecker Watson" in the 1813 will of her sister Mary. She was undoubtedly one of the females living with her mother in Exeter in 1790.  Nothing more is known of her.


 * David, b. c. 1770 (aged 52 at death in Oct 1822, per obit), m. 1795 Elizabeth "Betsey" HOOK, daughter of Francis Hook and Mary Rand. David and Betsey are buried in the Edmunds-Stanyan Cemetery in Chichester, NH.


 * Elizabeth "Betsey", b. c. 1772, d. by 1832, but probably much earlier; she was mentioned in the 1777 will of her father, but not in the 1813 will of her sister Mary. She was married in Newmarket, NH 11 Sep 1792 to Edward HILTON, b. Newmarket 11 Dec 1770, the son of Edward Hilton and Elizabeth Folsom.  Edward was called a husbandman of Lee, NH in a 3 Aug 1797 deed, after which he appears on the census for Newmarket in 1800, 1810, and 1820.  Betsey is likely the female 45+ on the 1820 census, but she was called deceased in the 7 May 1832 will of her brother, Daniel.  Betsey appears to have been older than her husband, as she appears as age 45+ in 1810, while her husband is aged 26-44.  Another female aged 45+ in the household may be her husband's mother, or another unknown person.


 * Sarah "Sally", b. c. 1774, m. (intention in Exeter 17 May 1794) William HOOK, b. Salisbury, MA 19 Nov 1772, d. Chichester, NH 1802, the son of Francis Hook and Mary Rand. Sally was still living on 28 April 1841 when she received payment under her brother's [Daniel's] will.  Though her husband is not found on any census record, the widow Sally was living in Chichester in 1820, next to her brother David Watson, and was still there in 1830, both times with her son, Dudley.

(4g) David Watson
David, the son of Winthrop and Abigail Watson of Exeter, New Hampshire, was born there in 1764 and died in Chichester, NH on 2 November 1822. He married (intention in Exeter, NH 21 Jun 1795) Elizabeth HOOK, the daughter of of Francis Hook and Mary Rand of Chichester, NH. David was living with family in Newmarket, NH as early as 1796 when his son Francis was born. He is enumerated there on the 1800 federal census, though the ages of his children on the census are incorrect from what we know of the family. He was living in Lee, Strafford Co., NH on 7 Mar 1806 when he and wife Betsey signed a deed to Dudley Watson of Newmarket, likely David's brother. David's wife, Elizabeth Watson, was called of Chichester on 9 Mar 1808 when she was deeded property by her parents and of the same place on 15 Apr 1815 when she deeded property to her son Francis. David and several of his children were mentioned in the will of David's sister Mary in 1813. David's sons, Francis H. and Daniel Watson, signed the bond of administration on the estate of David Watson, late of Chichester, on 10 Jan 1823. The inventory, made 19 Mar 1823, amounted to $70.94. The tombstone death year of 1823 is incorrect for David; he died in November 1822 based on a family record, and this is supported by the dates of the administration of his estate. David and Elizabeth are buried in the Edmunds-Stanyan Cemetery in Chichester, NH. Their marker was installed by a granddaughter of theirs. Children:


 * Francis Hook, b. Newmarket, NH Aug 1796, d. Hooksett, NH 3 Nov 1865, m. Pittsfield, NH 29 Dec 1821 Eliza P. Langley, b. Chichester March 1801, d. Candia, NH 13 Feb 1872, the daughter of Samuel Langley and Hannah Griffin. Francis and Eliza are buried in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester.


 * Abigail G. "Nabby", b. Lee (or Newmarket), NH March 1799, d. Manchester, NH 24 Jan 1883, m. Pittsfield, NH 31 Dec 1818 Isaac Langley, b. Deerfield, NH 15 Sep 1791, d. Manchester, NH 18 Jan 1875, the son of James-4 Langley (James-3-2-1) and Mary Morse of Deerfield. Isaac served in both the Army and Navy during the War of 1812, and has an extensive pension file as a result.  He was injured while on duty in the Navy, and was lame the remainder of his life as a result.  He was awarded a pension of $5 per month in 1831, and by 1874 it had risen to $18 per month (Langley Gen:124).  The burial location for Abigail and Isaac has not been determined, but memorials have been created for them in Find-a-grave.


 * Daniel, b. Lee 1802, m. Ann _______, b. c. 1810. Daniel lived in Chichester until at least 1829, after which he was living in Eastport, Maine.  He was living in 1837, but in 1840 his wife was enumerated on the census in Eastport with what appear to be five children.


 * Mary, b. Lee, NH c. 1805, d. after 1860 census, and m. Hooksett NH 8 Feb 1829, [Thomas?] Jefferson DAVIS, b. c. 1805, apparently dead by 1850. In 1830 Jefferson Davis was in Pembroke, NH with family, and in 1840 he was in Goffstown, NH with family.  In 1850 and 1860 Mary was enumerated in Hooksett, NH.  They had four known children.


 * Stephen, b. Lee, NH 1807, d. Chichester 11 Feb 1857, and m. 1837 Hannah S. Langley, b. Chichester 18 July 1815, d. there 15 Dec 1893, the daughter of John Langley and Elizabeth Locke. The family lived in Hooksett from 1837 to 1849, then in Manchester for a few years, but by 1854 was back in Chichester.  Stephen and Hannah are buried with some of their children in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester.  They had nine known children.


 * Lucinda, b. Chichester c. 1815 from census records, but death record gives (calculated) date as 29 March 1811, m. Manchester, NH 7 June 1840 Aaron S. Fisk, b. VT c. 1810. She was living in Lowell, Mass. in 1837, and in 1840 of Manchester when she married.  In 1847 she and her husband were in Groton, VT, and in 1850 for the census they were in Bradford, VT.  In 1853 she was back in Groton where a child was born.  In 1860 she was living with her husband and four children in Dickinson, Franklin Co., NY.  In 1880 she was living in Dorchester, Grafton Co., NH with her daughter Martha S. Rand, 31, and husband George Rand, 29, and a Willie H. Fisk, aged 7.  Curiously, she was called married in this census, so if this is correct, the whereabouts of her husband is unknown.  She died of pneumonia in Groton, VT on 22 Dec 1890.  She and Aaron had four known children.

(3g) Francis Hook Watson
Francis Hook Watson was born Newmarket, NH Aug 1796, d. Hooksett, NH 3 Nov 1865, the son of David Watson and Elizabeth Hook of Chichester. He married in Pittsfield, NH in 1821 Eliza P. LANGLEY, b. NH March 1801, d. NH 12 Feb 1872, the daughter of Samuel Langley and Hannah Griffin of Chichester. Francis appears on the 1830 census index for Chichester, NH. He was called a farmer in the 1850 and 1860 federal censuses, where he lived with family in Hookset, NH. He appears to be the Francis H. Watson who was appointed as the postmaster at Rowes Corner, Merrimack Co., NH on 15 March 1858. His will, dated 24 Oct and proved 28 Nov 1865, mentioned wife Eliza, daughters Charlotte, wife of Jerome Bickford, Mary A., wife of John B. Neal, and sons Joseph H., Daniel (David?), Samuel L., Francis, and Moses L. as executor. Francis and Eliza share a large family monument with their son Samuel and his wife in the Langley-Watson Cemetery (aka Horse Corner Cemetery) in Chichester. Children:


 * Joseph H., born Chichester 10 Sep 1822, d. Candia, NH 4 April 1892, m. Candia 10 Nov 1852 Mary Ann TOWLE, b. Candia 1829, d. Candia 13 Nov 1908, the daughter of Jesse R. Towle and Nancy Smith of Candia. Joseph was a stone mason.  He and Mary had eight children.  Joseph and Mary share a large monument in a large family plot in the Hill Cemetery in Candia, NH.


 * Charlotte, b. NH Dec 1823 (1900 census), living in 1900, was married in Manchester, New Hampshire on 22 November 1847 to Jerome BICKFORD, b. NH 1820, d. Auburn, NH 30 Dec 1889, the son of Abram Bickford and Jane Stewart. The family lived in Concord, NH from 1850 to 1880, appearing in the city directory there up through 1880, but that year they moved to Manchester where they appear on the 1880 census and in the 1881 Manchester city directory. In that census Jermome was called an engineer, and he was living with his wife, three daughters and son-in-law John Nelson. In the New Hampshire Patriot and State Gazette of Wed., 24 Feb 1858, was the obituary for one of their children, Frank Leroy Bickford, who died in Concord aged 21 months.  Jerome was last seen in the Manchester city directory in 1882 and died in Auburn in 1889. In 1900 Charlotte, aged 76, was living in Denver, Colorado with her daughter Mary, son-in-law John B. Nelson, and their child and one of her single daughters.  She was also in the 1897, 1898, 1899, and 1900 city directory for Denver, Colorado.  Charlotte and Jerome had seven children per the 1900 census, four of whom survived childhood, and three of whom were still living in 1900.  The burial locations for Charlotte and Jerome have not been determined.


 * David, b. Concord, NH 5 Feb 1825, d. New Bedford, Mass. 24 March 1884, m. New Bedford, Mass. July 1866 Ellen "Nellie" CROWNER, b. c. England c. 1843, d. New Bedford 28 June 1908, the daughter of John and Hannah Crowner. David and Ellen appear on the 1870 census in Dartmouth, Mass. with son Alfred, aged 2, and on the 1880 census for New Bedford, Mass. with son Alfred D., aged 12. David's family history has been difficult to sort out. David had a child named Mary born the last day of 1855. Mary's death record states that she was the daughter of David and Ellen Watson, and that Ellen was born in Ireland. The Ellen who was the mother of Mary could hardly be the Ellen who was the mother of David's second child. David did not marry Ellen #2 until 1866, nearly eleven years after the child Mary was born. Also, the birth year for Ellen #2 is totally uncertain, since her age in every single record suggests a different birth year. However, the most believable age for her was presumably from the 1860 census, calling her 17, and thus born about 1843. If Ellen #2 was born in 1843, it is highly unlikely (though theoretically possible) that she was the mother of David's child born in 1855.  There may have been some perceived impropriety surrounding David's relationships, causing misinformation to be given, resulting in a very confusing picture of his matrimony and patrimony. Perhaps there are descendants who know more of the story. Often, there is a good explanation that clears up all of the uncertainties.  David was living at 154 S. Water St. in New Bedford when his daughter died in 1860, and at 163 1/2 Mill Street in New Bedford at the time of his death in 1884, and was called a merchant in his death record. David's only known child besides Mary was Alfred D. Watson, b. New Bedford, MA Jan 1868, and still living in 1940 when enumerated on the federal census. Alfred was the younger of two children born to David Watson of New Bedford, Mass. He may have been the only child born to his mother, but confusion exists about the parentage of his sister. Alfred left New Bedford to live in Providence, and is found there on each federal census from 1900 to 1940, and on the various Rhode Island state censues as well. He was married in Rhode Island on 17 June 1896 to Martha A. Higginbottom, who was living with him as late as 1940. They had three children, born in Rhode Island.  Daivd and Ellen are buried in Rural Cemetery in New Bedford, Mass., but do not have gravestones. The daughter Mary is there as well, and has a small stone.


 * Polly L., b. Chichester 18 Feb 1826, d. Chichester 16 Sep 1828. This birth date comes from a family record, which differs from the calculated birth date on the tombstone, which would be Dec 1826.  She is buried in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester where her parents are buried.


 * Francis "Frank", b. Chichester 13 Feb 1828, d. Allenstown, NH 20 Nov 1908, m. Hooksett, NH on 4 July 1854 Alversa FARNUM. b. Hooksett, NH 1833, d. Allenstown, NH 18 Feb 1892, the daughter of John Farnum and Lizzie Wiggin. In 1860 the couple was living in Medford, Massachusetts with two small children and an Ezra Farnham, aged 47. In 1880 they were back in New Hampshire, living in Allenstown, with three grown children.They have a family monument in the Evergreen Cemetery in Pembroke, NH.


 * Hannah L., b. Chichester 10 Feb 1832, d. there 10 Oct 1837. Her birth date shown here comes from a family record, and differs from the date calculated from the marker, which would be December 1832.  She has a small gravestone in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester. If the gravestone age is correct, and that for her sister Mary is correct, then they would have to have been twins.

Candia, NH 20 Aug 1869, aged 43y 4m 15d, the son of Peter and Mary Neal. Mary appears on the 1850 census in Hooksett, NH, living at home with her parents, and in 1860 John and Mary were living next to his parents in Candia, with two children and an Anna McDuffie, aged 84, who was not a Watson relative, so may have been a maternal grandmother of John. There were other McDuffie families living nearby in 1860. Mary and John are buried in the Village Cemetery, Auburn, NH.


 * Moses L., b. Chichester 9 Feb 1834, d. Chichester 19 Oct 1837. His birth date presented here is from a family record. The date as calculated from the grave marker is January 1835. Moses has a small gravestone in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester

(2g) Moses Langley Watson
Moses Langley Watson, the son of Francis Hook Watson and Eliza Langley, was born Manchester, NH 6 Oct 1838, d. Rehoboth, Mass. 1 March 1899, and m. Hooksett, NH 26 June 1858 Lotisa Vianna CROSSETT, b. Duxbury, VT 25 Dec 1834, d. Providence, RI 5 April 1907, the daughter of Hosea Crossett and Persis Hills of Duxbury, VT. In 1860 Moses and Lotisa lived in Hookset, next to his parents, but their oldest daughter does not appear with them. Instead, living with them at the time were three Watson children, of undetermined parentage, and also a Nehemiah Watson, aged 65, laborer, b. NH. In 1870 Moses was living with wife and three children in Candia, NH, but by 1875 they were living in Cranston, Rhode Island where they appear on the RI state census with all four of their children. They continued to live the remainder of their lives in the vicinity of Providence, RI, but part of this time was spent nearby in Rehoboth, Mass., where some grandchildren of Moses were born, and where Moses died. Following Moses's death, Lotisa lived in Providence with her daughter Eliza, and is enumerated with her on the 1900 census. The only known photo with Moses was taken at the J. B. Barnaby Farm in Rehoboth, Mass. in 1896, and portrays the following people: Percy Watson, Bert Watson, Moses L. Watson, Lotisa V. Watson, Lorraine (Crossett) Turner (sister of Lotisa), and a hired man. Moses and Lotisa have individual stones with a family stone in a large plot in Pocassett Cemetery in Cranston, RI. Children:


 * Eliza Persis, b. Candia, NH 1 Dec 1859, d. Providence, RI 28 Sep 1949, m. E. Greenwich, RI 24 Jan 1881 Charles Henry HOPKINS, b. 12 May 1851, d. Providence, RI 22 Apr 1929.

 * Stephen Daniel, b. Hooksett, NH 22 Feb 1864, d. Miami, FL 24 March 1925, m. 4 Feb 1890 Florence G. HALSTEAD, b. NC 5 Jan 1868, d. Miami, FL 19 June 1963. In 1900 Stephen lived in Providence with his wife and three children, but in 1910 they were living in Cranston, Rhode Island, sharing a dwelling with his brother Frank and family. By 1920 he had moved back to Providence, where he was living with family at 304 Potters Avenue. Stephen was a structural contractor in 1900 and 1910, but in 1920 was called a real estate broker. Later in life he spent time visiting Florida where his son Percy had moved, and he died in Miami, but was buried back in Rhode Island. He and Florence had three children.  When the 1925 Rhode Island census was taken, Florence and her younger two children were living in East Providence, RI in the residence of Charles St. George and his young family. By 1930 Florence had moved to Florida, and she appears in Miami with her daughter Alversia on the census. She continued to live in Miami, and is found there on the 1935, 1940, and 1945 censuses, living at the address of 585 79th Street in 1940. The 1940 census says that she had completed two years of high school.  Florence lived as a widow for nearly 40 years, and died in Miami, but was interred back in Rhode Island beside her husband.  Stephen and Florence are buried in the Pocassett Cemetery in Cranston, RI.


 * Francis Hosea, b. Hooksett, NH 16 Nov 1866, d. Providence, RI 28 June 1934, m. Waterbury, VT 16 Jan 1893 Evora "Eva" C. SCOFIELD, b. Mass. 2 Oct 1871, d. Providence 7 Feb 1956, daughter of Ariel Scofield and Carrie Dumas of Waterbury, VT. Frank spent his early childhood in New Hampshire, but by 1875 his family had moved to Cranston, Rhode Island, and he spent the remainder of his life living in the Providence area. Frank was remembered by family members as being of poor health. Nevertheless, he became a real estate broker, like his older brother Stephen, and became financially independent. In 1900 Frank and Eva were living in their own home in Cranston with their two daughters, and they were still in Cranston in 1910, but were living in the house of Frank's brother, Stephen D. Watson. In 1920 Frank, Eva, and their daughters lived in their own home at 1242 Elmwood, Ave., on the edge of Roger Williams Park. Their home was multi-storied and had an elevator in it. In 1930, the last census on which Frank was recorded, the family was still in Providence. Eva lived in the Providence, Rhode Island area for her entire widowhood. She and Francis had two daughters, both living at home until very late in life, and neither having children. Frank and Eva were buried in Pocassett Cemetery in Cranston.


 * John Broadhead, b. Candia, NH 10 Oct 1870, m. Alice Mabel COLE (below).

(1g) John Broadhead Watson
John Broadhead Watson, the son of Moses L. Watson and Lotisa V. Crossett, was b. Candia, NH 10 Oct 1870, d. Providence, RI 9 Jan 1931, m. Cranston, RI 6 May 1890 Alice Mabel COLE, b. West Medway, Mass. 3 July 1871, d. Cranston, RI 14 Dec 1958, the daughter of Albert M. Cole and Ada Jane Fish of West Medway. It wasn't long after John's birth that his family moved to Rhode Island, and they appear on the 1875 census in Cranston, and were there in 1880 as well. The family was living in Rhode Island in 1891 when their first child was born, but living in Rehoboth, Mass. by 1896 when the second child was born. John appears on the 1900 census there with his wife and three children. Living next door was his sister, Eliza Hopkins, with her husband and their mother Lotisa Watson, and a servant named Joseph Raymond, aged 25. By 1910 the family was in Providence, and consisted of John, Alice, and their youngest daughter, Elinor. In the 1920 census, John was listed alone at 85 Anthony Avenue in Providence, RI, next door to his son J. B. Watson and wife Ada who were at 86 Anthony Ave. However, John is on the very last line on the census form, and his wife was likely omitted by error. In 1930 John and Alice were still in Providence at 85 Anthony Ave., and next door at 87 Anthony was their daughter Eliza, now widowed, with five lodgers, one of whom was her niece, Adah E. Watson, who was a social worker in a hospital. John owned his house, valued at $5000, and his business was called real estate. He had been a businessman who worked at a variety of enterprises, one of them being the vending of ice cream, but in several censuses his occupation was simply called real estate. John and Alice are buried in his parents' family plot in Pocassett Cemetery in Cranston, RI. Children:


 * John Bertram "Bert", b. RI 30 Apr 1891, d. Clearwater, FL 5 Sep 1972, m. (1) Providence 5 June 1913 Ethel S. COOPER, b. 20 April 1892, d.

Cranston, RI 4 Jan 1954, the daughter of George H. Rowe and Lilla May Starky. They had three children, the first of whom died in early childhood. He married (3), at the Rockingham Hotel in Portsmouth, NH on 26 June 1954 Muriel Rose (PHILPOT) Pingree, b. Atkinson, Maine 4 Feb 1909, d. Largo, FL 4 April 2006, aged 97, the daughter of Alonzo Franklin Philpot and Rosie Ellen Clark. Bert and Muriel moved from Rhode Island to Florida in 1956. Bert was a banker, and involved in a number of real estate ventures. He and Muriel established the Lighthouse Center for Visual Impairment in Pinellas County, FL.  Bert is buried with his third wife in Sylvan Abbey Memorial Park, Clearwater, FL.  His first two wives are buried in the family plot with his parents and grandparents at Pocassett Cemetery in Cranston.


 * Adah Eliza, b. Rehoboth, Mass. 29 April 1896, d. Providence, RI 15 April 1979, did not marry. Adah was a dedicated social worker. She began her professional life as a school teacher, but soon opted for a change, and for 40 or more years she worked at the Providence Lying-in Hospital, which was mostly geared toward delivering babies. She retired as the director of social services for the hospital.  Adah was the know-all and end-all of the Watson family history, and her family records played prominently in the Watson family genealogy published in the 1990s.  She was a member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, and lived at 53 Highland Street in Cranston, Rhode Island. Her mother, Alice (Cole) Watson lived her final years with Adah, as did Ms Lena Robbins.  Adah is buried in the family plot with her parents and grandparents in Pocassett Cemetery in Cranston, RI.

Thomas Beard was born c. 1608 (aged about 70 in 1678), d. 1679, and m. say 1654 Mary _______, b. c. 1634, living in 1679. Thomas was a carpenter in Dover, New Hampshire, and first of record in 1641 when he was party to a lawsuit. Also party to this lawsuit was William Beard of the same general area, likely a relative. Thomas was at one time a servant of Mr. Treworgy. Thomas bought land at Dover in 1644, and was on a coroner's jury in 1646 or 1647. In 1649 he and Valentine Hill were granted the falls of Oyster River for erecting a sawmill. He bought land at Scarborough in 1659, and witnessed a deed of William Beard in 1675. His will, dated 16 Dec 1678, was proved 25 March 1679, naming wife Marie (Mary), two sons, and three daughters. Following his death, Mary m. _______ Williams. Children:

(10g) Roger Dudley
NEHGR 142(1988):233

Roger Dudley, possibly the son of John Dudley and Elizabeth Clerke, was born say 1550, d. by 1588 (and probably shortly after the 1580 birth of his youngest child), and m. Lidlington, Bedfordshire 8 June 1575 Susan THORNE, the daughter of Thomas Dorne/Thorne and Mary Purefoy.

He is likely the Thomas Dudley named in the 1579 will of his grandmother's brother, John Purefoy. As a youngster, Thomas was trained in a Latin school "by the care of Mrs. Purefoy", after which he became a page in the family of the Earl of Northampton. As a young man he raised a company of soldiers to join the forces sent by Queen Elizabeth to aid King Henry IV of France, and to serve at the siege of Amiens. He later practiced law, having trained as a clerk under his kinsman, Judge Nicolls. He was for many years the steward to Theophilus, fourth Earl of Lincoln, managing the extensive estates of that earldom. He came to New England in 1630 with the Winthrop fleet, having been appointed as Assistant and Deputy Governor under Winthrop prior to sailing. He served as Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony for four disparate years (1634, 1640, 1645, 1650), but was usually the Deputy Governor (under Winthrop) when not the governor. He has a table/box memorial in the ancient Eliot Burying Ground in Roxbury, but the bronze tablet was supposedly taken and melted down during the American Revolutionary War. Children:

(1) c. 1690 Elizabeth THING, b. Exeter 5 June 1664, d. Exeter 1697, the daughter of Jonathan Thing and Joanna Wadleigh. He m. (2) c. 1710 Hannah THING, b. Exeter 1691, the daughter of Capt Jonathan Thing and Mary Gilman. In 1737 Samuel deeded land to his sons Samuel and Jonathan, and provided a cow to daughter Elizabeth. 

Children with first wife, Elizabeth:


 * Mary, b. c. 1691, living in 1758, m. c. 1712 David WATSON, b. c. 1684, the son of Jonathan Watson and Elizabeth Beard of Dover, NH. Mary was called sister Mary Watson in the 1758 will of her brother, Samuel.


 * Jonathan. b. Exeter, NH c. 1695, d. 1762, m. 13 Oct 1720 Dinah BEAN, b. c. 1700, living in 1762, the daughter of John and Sarah Bean. They lived in Brentwood, NH.  Jonathan was executor of the 1758 will of his brother, Samuel.  His own will was dated 13 May 1762 and proved the following month on 30 June 1762.  His inventory was valued at over 14,000 pounds, a substantial estate for the time.


 * Joanna, bapt First Congr. Church, Hampton, NH 24 Oct 1697, did not marry, and was not named in the 1758 will of her brother, Samuel.

Children with second wife, Hannah:


 * Elizabeth, b. Exeter 9 Feb 1713/4, d. 1762, unmarried. She was called sister Elizabeth Dudley in the 1758 will of her brother, Samuel.  The administration of her estate was given to her brother-in-law, Nathaniel Thing, in 1762.


 * Sarah, b. Exeter 9 April 1716, d. Stratham, NH 4 Feb 1755, m. c. 1737 Samuel LEAVITT, b. c. 1706, d. 27 June 1740, the son of Daniel Leavitt and Abigail Rust. She was called sister Sarah Leavitt in the 1758 will of her brother, Samuel.


 * Mercy, b. c. 1722, m. by 1746 Nathaniel THING (nephew of Joseph Thing). She was called sister Mercy Thing in the 1758 will of her brother, Samuel.


 * Samuel, b. c. 1725, d. Exeter Sep 1758 while in the Army; unmarried. He was one of the soldiers in the Crown Point Expedition under Capt. Somersbee Gilman of Exeter.  Some sources give his birth date as early as 1693, but that would make him age 62 during the Crown Point Expedition in 1755, which, though not impossible, is highly improbable.  Because he was not an officer or sergeant, he was likely a younger man during his service, and thus one of the youngest, if not the youngest, of the children of his father.  His will was dated 13 April 1758 and proved 28 Feb 1758/9.

(8g) Jonathan Thing
GDMeNH:678

Jonathan Thing was b. c. 1621, d. 29 April 1674, and m. Joanna WADLEIGH, b. say 1630, living in 1703 (GDMeNH:687). Following his death, Joanna m. (2) Bartholomew Tipping. Jonathan was apprenticed to Henry Ambrose of Hampton in 1641 when sentenced to be whipped at Boston and Exeter for ravishing Mary Greenfield. He settled in Wells and was sergeant and constable there in 1653, and fined for political libel in 1655. Even though he was given a grant of land at Wells in 1660, he had already moved to Exeter by 1658/9. Lt Bartholomew Tippin was "employed by Scottow to proceed to Black Pt., discover the state of the fort, transport recoverable goods and impress inhabitants and others to hold the place, authority being given by Mass. Gen. Ct. 25 Oct 1676." He was an agent to Maj Thomas Clarke in New Hampshire, 1679-1680, and a representative in 1680. He is last of record in 1683 as an Exeter (NH) planter. Children of Jonathan and Joanna:


 * Jonathan, b. c. 1654, d. 31 Oct 1694, aged 40, shot by his own gun when falling from his horse, m. (1) 26 July 1677 Mary GILMAN, b. 10 Sep 1658, d.

 * Mary, b. 6 March 1673, d. by 1714, m. c. 1713, as his second wife, Stephen DUDLEY, b. c. 1654, d. 1734, the son of Rev. Samuel Dudley and his third wife Elizabeth. Stephen had m. (1) Sarah Gilman and after Mary's death he m. (3) before 1715 Mercy Gilman, who was named in his 17 Feb 1734/5 will, which was proved 13 May 1735.

(9g) John Wadleigh
GDMeNH

John Wadleigh, born in England say 1600, d. summer 1671, and m. Mary _______, b. say 1605, who was living on 18 April 1664, but dead by 1671. He was of Saco (Maine) when taxed in 1636, but later of Wells where he was granted land in 1645 and a selectman shortly thereafter. His will was dated 7 July 1671, directing that he be buried beside his deceased wife, and naming three children. His inventory was taken 20 Sep 1671. Children:


 * Mary, b. "Bristol near London" say 1625, m. Thomas MILLS, b. Exeter, England, living in 1681, a fisherman of Saco and Wells (Maine). One of their five children was born in 1653.  In 1651, Mary was "with an eloping party arrested at Barnstable and sent home."(GDMeNH:483)  So what does this mean?  In 1664, Mary's father deeded to her and her children the house they were living in.  Their daughter Martha was apparently captured by Indians, and baptized by a Catholic elder, with the resulting record giving the birth places of Thomas and Mary.


 * Robert, b. say 1630. His oldest son was b. c. 1663, so if we make his marriage about 1660, a birth year of say 1635 would seem appropriate.  But he was of record in 1654, so likely an adult, making 1630 a more suitable timeframe for his birth.


 * Joanna, b. say 1632, m. (1) Jonathan THING; (2) Bartholomew TIPPING. Her first known child was born c. 1654, so her birth was likely 1630 to 1635.

Humphrey originated in Chichester, Sussex, but moved to Bristol where he was a merchant of great wealth and influence. He became the sheriff, an alderman, and the mayor of Bristol. He aided in the colonization of North America. Humphrey Hooke's will was dated 25 June 1658 and that of his wife "Cicily Hooke of Bristol, widow" was dated 31 Aug 1660 and proved 17 Oct 1660.

(9g) William Hooke
GM:3:403-410

William, the son of Humphrey Hooke and Cicely Young, was baptized at St. Stephens, Bristol, England 8 April 1612, buried there 8 July 1652, and m. c. 1635 Eleanor (_______) Norton, b. say 1600, living in 1662, widow of Walter Norton, soldier of Charlestown, Mass., b. c. 1580, d. summer 1633. Hooke was in New England by 1634 based on an entry made by Gov. Winthrop in his journal in July 1643. On 13 Sep 1637 he and Thomas Badbury wrote to Winthrop asking for a minister for their settlement at Agamenticuts (York). Hooke was governor there from 1638 to 1640, and appointed councillor for the Province of Maine in Sep 1639 and again in March 1639/40. By 1640, however, he had moved to Salisbury, Mass., where he was admitted a freeman on 12 Oct 1640. He was the deputy for that town in 1643 and again in 1647. After his arrival in New England, Hooke went back to England twice, the first time in late 1641, returning the following year, and again in 1650, dying there two years later. On 4 Oct 1653 "Mrs. Ellinor Hooke" was appointed administratrix of his estate. Based on the quote below (see son William), she went to England with her son William, probably in the late 1650s, where he married and had a couple children. She was still living on 8 April 1662, of Salisbury, when she sold land there, and apparently was of Boston about 1667. Children of Eleanor and William Hooke:

(8g) William Hooke, Jr.
GM; Hoyt:204

William, the son of William and Eleanor Hooke of York and Salisbury, was born say 1638, d. Salsbury 3 Sep 1721, and m. St. Stephen's, Bristol, England 27 Dec 1660 Elizabeth DYER, b. say 1640, d. Salisbury 26 March 1717. In his will of 25 June 1658, William's grandfather, "Humphrey Hooke the elder of the City of Bristol, merchant" gave to "my grandchildren William and Josias Hooke forty pounds apiece a couple of most stubborn and unruly boys..." In a subsequent codicil he offered them more: "this I do hope of their amendment". When he was "a pretty big lad" he went to England with his mother and married there, with two of his children born there. He returned to New England about 1667 and "came to his mother, who then lived at Boston." He was of Boston as attorney for Henry Deering 1687-1688, but lived primarily at Salisbury. William was a merchant. He and his wife signed the Bradbury petition in 1692. Children:


 * Florence, b. England c. 1661, m. Newbury, Mass 16 Nov 1685 James COFFIN.

(7g) William Hook III
William Hook, b. England c. 1663, d. Salisbury, Mass. 26 Dec 1743, the son of William-2 Hooke (Wm-1) and Elizabeth Dyer. He m. (1) c. 1692 Mary (FOLLANSBEE) Pike, b. c. 1666, d. Salisbury 25 Oct 1736, the daughter of Thomas and Mary Follansby, and the widow of Robert Pike who she married 1 Dec 1686, and who died 22 Aug 1690, leaving two children. William m. (2) Salisbury, Mass. 17 May 1738 Sarah (GREELY) Carr. The Greele genealogy says this was the daughter of Philip Greele, and b. Salisbury 1676, and had a child in 1730! That's a REAL stretch for a woman to bear a child at age 54. I would look elsewhere for her provenance. William Hook was admitted to the Salisbury Church on 26 July 1713, and his wife Mary was admitted there 30 Aug 1719, being baptized the same day. His will, dated 23 June 1743, was proved 5 Feb 1743/4. 

children of Mary Follansby with first husband, Robert Pike:


 * Robert Pike, b. Salisbury 3 Sep 1687, d. Newmarket, NH 5 Dec 1743, m. Hannah GILMAN, bapt Hampton, NH 24 Oct 1697, d. Newfield, NH 1 May 1774, daughter of Capt Jeremiah Gilman and Mary Wiggin.


 * Sarah Pike, b. Salisbury 3 Feb 1689, m. Salisbury 6 Nov 1712 Jacob STEVENS, b. Salisbury 26 Nov 1686, son of Lt. Benjamin Stevens and Hannah Barnard. They had eight known children born c. 1714 to 1731.

children of Mary Follansby with second husband, William Hook:


 * Elizabeth, b. 14 Feb 1692/3, m., as his second wife, 2 July 1728 John EATON, b. Kingston, NH 18 Oct 1685, d. Salisbury, Mass. 1 March 1746, the son of Joseph Eaton and Mary French. John had m. (1) 22 Jan 1710 Ester Johnson who died 22 Jan 1728.  Following John's death, Elizabeth m. (2) 28 Dec 1752 Abner LOWELL.  An Elizabeth Hooke was baptized as an adult 30 Aug 1712 in the Salisbury Church.

Salisbury 2 Dec 1770 in her 67th year, the daughter of Edward French and Mary Winsley. The wording on Anne's grave marker, calling her the "former wife to Mr. Josiah Hook" suggests that Josiah remarried following her death, but no record of a second wife has been found.  Josiah and Anne had nine children whose births were recorded in Salisbury.  Josiah and Ann both have surviving grave markers in the Old Salisbury Burial Ground.


 * William, b. c. 1703, named in father's 1743 will.


 * Francis, b. 22 March 1705/6, d. Salisbury 19 Jan 1755, m. Salisbury 22 Feb 1732/3 Edith GREELEY, b. 22 July 1710, daughter of Andrew Greeley and Eleanor Hook. Edith was called the wife of Francis Hook in the 1747 will of her father.  Francis and Edith had as many as eight children born 1734 to 1750.


 * Mary, b. 15 Jan 1710, d. Gloucester, Mass. 18 June 1788 in her 79th year, m. Salisbury 31 Oct 1728 Stephen BENNETT, b. Gloucester 20 Jan 1706/7, d. Gloucester 1790, the son of Anthony Bennett, Jr. and Rebecca Wharff. Stephen was a mariner and fisherman.  After their marriage, he and Mary lived in Salisbury where their first two children were born.  In 1732 they moved to Gloucester where they spent the remainder of their long lives, and they had ten additional children born there.  Administration of the estate of Stephen was granted on 4 May 1790; he died insolvent.  Mary was named in her father's 1743 will.   She was buried in the First Parish Burial Ground in Gloucester, and her husband is with little doubt there as well.

The Greeley genealogy (p 136) says he m. (2) Sarah Kimball and also gives him eleven children born 1748 to c. 1780, so some of them were with a second wife.  Humphrey and Hannah are buried in Ye Old Cemetery, Danville, NH.  Humphrey was a Rev. War soldier.


 * Jacob, b. 29 Nov 1724, d. Kingston, NH 12 Dec 1804, m. Mary BATCHELDER, b. E. Kingston, NH 13 April 1729, d. Kingston 12 June 1813, daughter of Phineas Batchelder and Elizabeth Gilman. Jacob and Mary had five children born 1756 to c. 1768.  His will, dated 6 Dec 1802, was proved 31 Dec 1804, and her will, dated 27 Oct 1805, was proved 6 July 1813.  They both have extant grave markers in Plains Cemetery, Kingston.


 * Martha, b. 29 March 1727, d. Kingston, NH 12 Sep 1750, m. Salisbury 21 Nov 1744 John JUDKINS, b. Kingston 8 Feb 1718/9, d. Kingston 29 May 1788, son of Samuel Judkins and Abigail Harriman. Following Martha's death, John married Esther Swett.

Brentwood 21 April 1824, aged 82, the daughter of Josiah Hook and Anne French (their father's were brothers and their mothers were sisters). Josiah's will was dated 13 March 1800 and proved 13 Oct 1817.  He and Elizabeth both have grave markers in Veasey Cemetery, Brentwood.  He and Elizabeth had three known children born in Salisbury 1764 to 1775.


 * Elizabeth, b. 15 Jan 1740/1, d. Hampton, NH 14 Oct 1799, m. Kingston, NH 30 Sep 1762 Simon NUDD, b. Hampton 6 Feb 1734/5, d. Hampton 30 Oct 1780, son of Thomas Nudd and Deborah Marston. They had nine children born in Hampton, NH 1763 to 1782.


 * Francis, b. 10 Feb 1743/3, d. c. 1817, m. Mary RAND. I'm hoping to install a veterans marker for Francis in the Hook Cemetery, Chichester, NH.

(5g) Francis Hook
Francis was the son of Jacob Hook and Elizabeth French of Salisbury, Mass., and born there on 10 February 1742/3, living 11 Aug 1815 when he made a deed of gift to Sarah Hook, wife of his son Dier Hook of Chichester. Interestingly, his birth is also recorded in Kingston, New Hampshire, so it is not known what affiliation the family had with that town. He was married about 1766 to Mary RAND, the daughter of Thomas Rand and Elizabeth Chapman. Francis served as a private from Salisbury in Capt Stephen Merrill's company, Col Caleb Cushing's regiment, marching on 20 April 1775 in response to the alarm of a day earlier, with total service of 3 ½ days. An internet source says that Francis was a fisherman who also ran a horseback express service. The family lived in Salisbury, Mass. until about 1785, when a notice appeared in the local paper that Francis had some mail that had not been picked up. Francis had apparently prospered, and he was titled "Esquire" in the obituary of one of his sons. A family source says he moved to Chichester, New Hampshire and provided each of his sons with a farm. He appears on the 1790, 1800, and 1810 federal censuses there. He and his wife both signed a deed in Chichester on 9 March 1808, distributing some of their property to family members. Mary cosigned a deed with Francis on 21 Dec 1809, and appears to be enumerated with him on the 1810 census, but she does not cosign any deeds with him after 1809 (e.g. in 1811, 1814, and 1815), so likely died close to 1810. While Francis is almost certainly buried in Chichester, his exact place of interment has not been determined. Children, b. Salisbury, MA:


 * Thomas, b. 12 Nov 1767, d. Chichester, NH 16 July 1819 (d. 1822 per Greeley Gen, p, 138). He was married in Epsom, NH on 11 September 1788 to Mary "Polly" LEAVITT, the daughter of Edmund Rand Leavitt and Mehitable Edmunds. Thomas was an innkeeper, and at the age of 45 enlisted for service during the War of 1812. He was Captain of the 45th US Regiment, and was 5'10" tall, with blue eyes, light hair and light complexion. His military record says he was born in Newburyport, but the record of his birth actually appears in nearby Salisbury, Mass. He was enlisted on 29 December 1813 by Lieutenant Butterfield for a period of one year. He was in Captain J. Flander's company and present for duty on 20 July 1814, and subsequently dropped from the rolls of this unit. His unit was consolidated with a company at Plattsburgh [NY] on 28 February 1815 before being discharged. His 1819 obituary calls him a "pensioner from the recent war" but not allowed to enjoy his pension for long, having suffered from "dropsy of the head" for five months before his death in his 52nd year. His obituary attributed his premature death to the exposure he suffered during the war. He and Polly had eleven known children together.


 * Jacob, b. 26 Aug 1770, d. Concord, NH 27 Feb 1862, and married about 1810 Hannah GRIFFIN of Northwood, NH, b. Temple, Hillsbororough, NH 2 Nov 1790, died Concord 26 June 1857, the daughter of Nathaniel and Sarah Griffin. Jacob and Hannah appear on the 1850  census in Concord with daughter Hannah, aged 15.  In 1860, Jacob, aged 90, was living with daughter Mary A. Abbot, 46, and her husband Benjamin K. Abbot, aged 48.  jacob and Hannah, and also Benj. and Mary Abbot, are buried in the Old North Cemetery in Concord, NH.


 * William, b. 19 Nov 1772, d. Chichester, NH 1802, m. (int pub Salisbury, MA 16 May 1794) Sally WATSON, b. ca 1775, daughter of Winthrop Watson (b 1723/4). Following William's death, Sally continued living as a widow, and appears with a son on the 1810, 1820, and 1830 censuses for Chichester.  She does not appear to be the Sally Hook, widow of William, who died in NH 20 Feb 1856, aged 80 [town not given in record]. This Sally appears to be the Sarah Hook of Brentwood, NH whose will was probated in March 1756, a sister of Abraham Morrill.


 * Dyer, b. 14 Apr 1776, living in 1840, married in Deerfield, NH 3 Sep 1797 Sally CASS. He appears on the 1810, 1820, 1830, and 1840 censuses for Chichester, NH, each time with wife and as many as five children.  The Greeley genealogy, p 287, gives them five children.  He should not be confused with his contemporary, Dyer Hook of Sandown, NH, who died in 1815 and who married Polley Griffin.


 * Elizabeth "Betsey," b. 5 Feb 1778, m. David WATSON of Exeter and Chichester, NH. They are buried in the Edumunds-Stanyan Cemetery in Chichester.


 * Moses, b. 17 Jan 1780, m. Sally TOWLE. Moses appears on the 1820 census for Chichester, NH, aged 25-44 with females aged 25-44 and under 10.  A Sally Hook married in Loudon, NH 3 Sep 1826 Aaron Towle.  Of interest is an item in the New Hampshire Patriot and State Gazette on 2 April 1821: "Notice--This is to forbid all persons harboring or trusting Moses Hook on my account, or on account of the town of Chichester, as I have contracted with the selectmen for his support for one year, and if any person employs him, they must expect to be accountable to the subscriber for the same.--Benjamin Towle, Epsom, March 15 1821"  This Moses Hook, who was a pauper, apparently married a woman named Deborah, and with children they became wards of the town.  This Moses may have died about 1830, because in 1831 a similar notice mentions Deborah, but not Moses.


 * Henry White, b. 15 Apr 1782, d. Boston, MA 16 Mar 1827, m. c. 1810 Lucy B. WATTS, b. Jonesboro, ME 4 Nov 1789, d. Concord, NH 25 Aug 1879, the daughter of Samuel Watts and Polly Noyes. He appears on the 1820 census for Chichester, aged 26-44, with female of same age and what appear to be two male children and three female children (the Henry Hook in Chichester in 1810 is too old to be this Henry).  After Henry's death, Lucy married John Shorey, Jr., and they appear together in the 1860 census of Jonesport, ME with what appear to be eight children and grandchildren, likely of John.  Inexplicably, two different death records for Lucy give her death date as 25 Aug 1879 in Concord.  However, she appears the following June on the 1880 census in Concord, aged 91, living as a boarder in the household of Charles Flanders.  Lucy is buried in the Blossom Hill Cemetery in Concord.

Joane WEBB, probably the daughter of Nicholas Webb who joined with John Gostlett and John Chambers in purchasing the Marshfield manor from the Earl of Suffolk. From the Latin records, it appears that William died 16 Aug 1621, Joane died 27 Nov 1597, and a second wife, Elenora, d. 1 july 1618. Children:

Thomas Follansbee was born 1637, living 1717, and m. (1) Mary _______, b. c. 1639; (2) Sarah _______, (she or a dau d. 6 Nov 1683); (3) (int 4 April 1713) Jane Moseman of Boston. He certainly had another wife or wives during the 30 year period between Sarah and Jane, suggesting that the recorded death of Sarah was for a child, and not his wife. Thomas first settled in Portsmouth, NH, where he was a joiner, and finished the Portsmouth church and schoolhouse. Hoyt gives his dates in Portsmouth as 1665 to 1671. In 1671 he had moved from "Great Island" and rented a house near the meetinghouse (in Portsmouth?), but the house was also rented to another with a better offer, and Follansbee, wife and small children were turned out in the middle of winter. His wife Mary was of record in 1673, aged about 34, "hearing Rachel Webster cry murder" (GDMeNH), and in 1674 his "boy" had done work for the town. About 1677 he moved to Newbury, Mass., where he remained. Children, first five all likely with first wife; last two mother unknown:


 * Rebecca, b. say 1659, d. c. 1713, m. 22 Nov 1677 Thomas CHASE. b. 25 July 1654, d. 1732/3, son of Aquila Chase and Ann Wheeler. Thomas was a carpenter, who, after Rebecca's death, m.

John's will, dated 25 Sep 1723, was proved 4 March 1723/4.  Jane may be the one of her named who was dismissed from the Salisbury church to Kingston on 26 Sep 1726. They had about twelve children.


 * Thomas, b. c. 1674, d. 1755, m. (1) 19 June 1694 Abigail (BOND) Rolfe, b. Newbury 6 Nov 1660, daughter of John Bond and Esther Blakeley of Newbury and widow of Ezra Rolfe of Haverhill; m.

(9g) Samuel Winsley
Hoyt:362-363, 821; NEHGR 170(2016):121-127

Samuel was one of the 12 men who obtained the grant "to begin a plantation at Merrimack" (named Salisbury in 1640) in 1638, and he took the freeman's oath for the colony on 22 May 1639, though he was a member of the Newbury church. He was a Salisbury represnetative in 1642, 1644, 1645, and 1653, and a commissioner in 1652. He was licensed to sell strong waters for Salisbury in 1654, and left other records from 1654 to 1658. His inventory was taken by "Tho. Bradbury" and "Andru Grele" on 27 June 1663, and his son Samuel was given administration of his estate 13 Oct 1663. Widow Ann's inventory was dated 10 April 1677 with Ensign William Buswell and Ephraim Winsley appointed administrators. Children with first wife, all baptized at Saxmundham, Suffolk, England:

(9g) Andrew Greele
Hoyt:180-182, 214-215, 72-73, 1024

Andrew Greele was b. c. 1618, d. Salisbury, Mass. 30 June 1697, and m. c. 1643 Mary Moyse, b. c. 1623, d. Salisbury 24 Dec 1703, daughter of Josepch Moyce and Hannah Folcord. Andrew was first of record in Salisbury in 1640, and taxed there in 1650 and 1652. He was constable in 1653 and received land there in 1654. He is mentioned as having a mill and ferry in Haverhill in 1669 (this would not likely be his son Andrew, who was only 22 at the time). Children, all except Andrew with births recorded in Salisbury:


 * Philip, b. 21 Sep 1644, d. Salisbury 17 March 1717/8, m. 17 Feb 1669/70 Sarah ILSLEY, b. Salisbury 31 Aug 1644, daughter of John Ilsley and Sarah Haffield. Philip took the oath of alegiance and fidelity in Dec 1677, and was a Salisbury freeman in 1690.  His will was dated 14 March and proved 9 April 1717/8.  They had seven children born in Salisbury from 1670/1 to 1684.


 * Andrew, b. Haverhill, Mass. 10 Dec 1646, d. 26 Nov 1736, m. Salisbury 12 June 1673 Sarah BROWN, b. Salisbury 6 Dec 1654, d. 23 June 1727, daughter of Henry and Abigail Brown of Salisbury. Andrew took the oath of alegiance and fidelity in 1677/8 and was a Salisbury freeman in 1690.  Probably resulting from the Indian massacre in nearby Haverhill in 1696, Andrew built a garrison, mentioned in Salisbury records 1698-1702.  He and Sarah had eight children born in Salisbury from 1674 to 1696.


 * Mary, b. 16 July 1649, m. Salisbury 26 March 1668 Epharaim WINSLEY

(10g) Joseph Moyce
Hoyt:262, 176, 286-7, 201, 992

Joseph Moyce, b. say 1585, living in Salisbury 1658, m. Hannah _______, b. say 1590, d. Salisbury 1655. Martha Lovering Holman, in her Pillsbury ancestry, says Joseph was living in 1669. He may be the Joseph Moyce who m. Dennington, Suffolk, England 22 Nov 1609 Anna FOLCARD. They had a daughter Anna baptized there 16 Sep 1618. Somewhat supporting this origin is that Joseph was mentioned in the will of Nicholas Stanton of Ipswich, Suffolk, England in 1648. Dennington and Ipswich are about 19 miles apart. Joseph was a joiner, and first of Dedham, Mass. in 1638. He received land in the "first division" in Salisbury, Mass. in 1640 and 1641, and was taxed there in 1650 and 1652. He received land in 1654 and signed a petition in 1658. Children:


 * prob Hannah, b. c. 1621, d. Haverhill 19 July 1677, m. c. 1642 Bartholomew HEATH, b. c. 1615, d. Haverhill 15 Jan 1681. Is she the Anna Moyce, of Joseph and Anna, baptized Dennington, Suffolk, England 16 Sep 1618?  Hannah and Bartholomew moved from Newbury to Haverhill as early as 1645.  Bartholomew's inventory was dated 28 March 1682.  They had eight children (first b. Newbury, last six b. Haverhill) born from 1643 to 1658.


 * Mary, b. c. 1623, d. 1703, m. c. 1643 (cb 1644) Andrew GREELEY


 * Martha, d. Salisbury 26 Feb 1712/3, m. (1) by 1674/5 George GOLDWYER of Salisbury, b. say 1625, d. Salisbury 12 April 1684; she m. (2) Salisbury 30 Oct 1684 Maj. Robert PIKE, b. c. 1615, d. Salisbury 12 Dec 1706, son of John Pike of Newbury and Salisbury, Mass. Because she married late in life, and had no children, it is difficult to estimate a birth year for Martha.

(11g) John Rand
NEHGR 165(2011):184-185

John Rand, born say 1570, bur. Ridgewell, Essex, England 9 Jan 1616/7, m. say 1595 Katherine _______, who may be the "vidua Rand" (widow Rand?) buried in Ridgewell 16 April 1630. John Rand's will was dated 4 May 1614 and proved 1 March 1616/7, naming wife Katherine, son John Rande and son Robert Rande. Witnesses were Nathaniel Fitch, John Rande the younger, Stephen Rande, Robert Rande, and Thomas Donnell. Children:


 * John, b. say 1595; may be the John Rand who had a daughter Priscilla baptised at Ridgewell 13 Sep 1620


 * Robert, b. say 1597, m. Alice _______ (below).


 * Margaret, b. say 1600, bur. Ridgewell 26 Oct 1610

(10g) Robert Rand
GM:6:1-5; NEHGR 165(2011):183-186; Rand Gen:1-10

Robert Rand was born say 1597, d. Charlestown, Mass. before 26 Jan 1649[/50?] when Alice was called a widow in a deed, and m. Ridgewell, Essex 16 Nov 1622 Alice _______, b. c. 1602, d. Charlestown 29 July 1691 "aged 98" which is likely quite exaggerated. The parish register giving the marriage of Robert and Alice does not include the bride's surname. Several early writers called Alice the daughter of Nicholas Sharp, but no evidence has been provided, and the 2011 NEHGR article offers evidence to the contrary. However, Alice is certainly the sister of Mary, the wife of Richard Sprague of Charlestown. Robert is first of record in Charlestown on 11 July 1635, and on 8 Jan 1635/6 Alice Rand was admitted to Charlestown church. Alice's will was dated 22 Aug 1683 and proved 17 Aug 1691. Alice has an extant gravestone in the Phipps Street Burying Ground in Charlestown. Children:


 * John, b. c. 1623, bur. Ridgewell 16 Oct 1633


 * Margery, bapt. Ridgewell 16 Jan 1624[/5], d. 12 April 1714, aged 90, m. c. 1646 Lawrence DOWSE, prob. the one bapt. Legbourne, Lincolnshire 6 June 1613, d. 14 March 1692, aged 78, son of Lawrence Dowse and Susanna Marshall. Lawrence had m. (1) Martha _______.

 * Thomas, b. c. 1627, m. Charlestown 12 march 1655/6 Sarah EDDENDEN.


 * Alice, bapt. Ridgewell 31 Dec 1629, bur. Ridgewell 16 Oct 1633

 * Nathaniel, bapt. Charlestown 3 Nov 1636, d. 17 May 1696, m. (1) Charlestown 2 Sep 1664 Mary CARTER, b. Charlestown 26 Nov 1645, d. 13 April 1678, daughter of Samuel Carter; m. (2) by 1680 Abigail (DAMON) Carter, b. Reading, Mass. 26 Aug 1654, d. 16 Oct 1695, daughter of John Damon and Abigail Sherman, and widow of Samuel Carter (the brother of Mary (Carter) Rand). He was titled Sergeant, was a freeman in 1668 and selectman in 1690, and may be the Nathaniel Rand in King Philip's War under Capt. John Cutter on 24 June 1676.  Nathaniel and first wife Mary had eight children born from 1665 to 1677, after which Nathaniel and Abigail had seven more children born from 1680 to 1694.


 * Elizabeth, bapt. Dec 1639 or Jan. 1639/40, m. Roxbury 6 Dec 1661 Nathaniel BREWER, b. Roxbury 1 May 1635, the son of Daniel and Joanna Brewer. Nathaniel had m. (1) Elizabeth Kingsbury.

(9g) Thomas Rand
Rand gen, pp 11-18; Find-a-grave; some vital records

Thomas, the son of Robert and Alice Rand of Ridgewell, Essex, England and Charlestown, Mass., was born in Ridgewell about 1627, d. 4 Aug 1683, and m. Charlestown 12 (or 25) March 1655/6 Sarah EDDENDEN, b. c. 1636, d. Charlestown 26 June 1699, aged 63, the daughter of Edmund Eddenden and Elizabeth Wightman. Thomas likely arrived in New England in 1635 with his father. He was a cordwainer, cowherdman, and given the title of Sergeant. Thomas and Sarah both have extant gravestones in the Phipps Street Burying Ground in Charlestown. Children, all born in Charlestown, Mass.:


 * Thomas, b. 1 Feb 1656/7, m. Sarah LONGLEY (below).


 * John, b. 6 Oct 1659, d. Charlestown 19 Dec 1659


 * Sarah, bapt. 6 Jan 1660/1, d. young.


 * Elizabeth, bapt. 2 Feb 1661/2, d. Charlestown 7 May 1713, m. (1) Charlestown 4 July 1682 John PENNEY; m. (2) 1703 or 1704 William SHEAFE. She had three children with John, born 1683 to 1687


 * John, b. 25 May 1664, d. Charlestown 24 Sep 1737, m. (1) Charlestown 2 Dec 1685 Mehitable CALL, b. Charlestown 30 June 1668, d. Charlestown 25 March 1727, the daughter of John Call and Hannah Kettell. He m. (2) 14 Oct 1730 Mary (REYNOLDS?) Randall, b. c. 1672, d. Charlestown 22 Sep 1757, aged 85, the widow of Job Randall.  John was a malster. John and Mehitable had 15 children born from 1687 to 1714.  John and his two wives all have extant gravestones in the Phipps Street Burying Ground in Charlestown.


 * Sarah, b. 15 Aug 1666, d. Charlestown 17 April 1749, m. 4 March 1685 Thomas WHITE, b. Charlestown 15 Oct 1664, d. Charlestown 14 Aug 1730, the son of Thomas White and Mary Frothingham of Charlestown. Sarah and Thomas had eight children born from 1685 to 1708.


 * Robert, b. 12 and bapt. 19 April 1668, d. 17 June 1678 of small pox. Robert has two gravestone photos in Find-a-grave: one with an incomplete inscription and one entire, but not totally legible. They both give the death year as 17 June, and it looks like the last digit in the death year of the complete stone is an 8, and 1678 is the year in the Rand genealogy, so that appears to be the correct death year.


 * Edmond, b. 27 Jan 1669/70, d. Charlestown 31 Aug 1683, aged 13. Edmond has an extant gravestone in the Phipps Street Burying Ground in Charlestown.


 * Hannah, b. 21 Feb 1672[/3?], d. Charlestown 23 April 1760, m. 12 April 1694 Nathaniel FROTHINGHAM, b. Charlestown 2 Sep 1671, d. there 31 July 1730, the son of Nathaniel Frothingham and Mary Hett. Hannah and Nathaniel had nine children born from 1695 to 1712.  They both have extant gravestones in the Phipps Street Burying Ground in Charlestown.


 * William, b. 11 Sep 1674, d. Charlestown 9 Feb 1744/7, m. c. 1694 Persis (PEIRCE) Shepard, b. Charlestown 30 Jan 1668/9, d. Charlestown 25 June 1748 in 80th year, the widow of John Sheppard whom she m. in Charlestown 26 March 1690. William and Persis had ten children born from 1695 to 1713.  William and Persis both have extant gravestones in the Phipps Street Burying Ground in Charlestown.


 * Deborah, b. 28 Sep 1676, d. Charlestown 16 Feb 1700/1


 * Samuel, b. 3 May 1679, d. Jan or Feb 1748[/9?], m. Boston 20 Jan 1703/4 Sarah PAIN, b. c. 1683, living in 1748, possibly the daughter of William Pain and Sarah Sanford. Samuel was a tailor, and a captain of a Foot Company under Colonel Wendell in 1742. Samuel was called of Boston in his will, dated 9 Jan 1748[/9?], naming wife Sarah and two of his sons as executors; it was proved the following month, on 21 Feb 1748[/9?].  Since the person who transcribed the will into the Boston probate books did not use the double dating [e.g. 1748/9], there is some uncertainty as to the dates in this will.  Samuel and Sarah had eleven children born from 1704 to 1727.  Sarah has an extant gravestone in the Phipps Street Burying Ground in Charlestown, but the vital information is buried underground.

(8g) Thomas Rand, Jr.
Rand gen

Thomas, the son of Thomas Rand and Sarah Eddenden, was born Charlestown, Mass. 1 Feb 1656/7, d. there 31 Oct 1695, and m. 17 June 1679 Sarah LONGLEY, b. Lynn, Mass. 15:8mo:1660 (15 Oct 1660--VR), daughter of William Longley of Groton, Mass. As a very young child, Sarah moved with her family from Lynn to the wilderness of Groton, far to the northwest of Boston and Charlestown. One might ask how she found her way to Charlestown, and the answer is that during King Philip's War in 1676, when Sarah was still 15 years old, her family evacuated from Groton, and came to Charlestown, where Sarah, approaching marriagable age, met and then married Thomas Rand. Thomas was a cordwainer of Charlestown, and admitted to the church there 29 Jan 1682. Sarah was admitted 9 March 1684. Thomas drowned when his canoe sank in the Mystic River, which runs through current suburbs of Boston. Sarah m. (2) 1701 Benjamin Watts. Thomas has an extant gravestone in the Phipps Street Cemetery in Charlestown which he shares with his daughter Sarah, who died just a few days after he. Children, born Charlestown:


 * Sarah, b. 27 Jan 1680/1, d. 11 Feb 1680/1


 * Thomas, b. 26 Dec 1681; bapt 5 Feb 1682[1/2?]. He was a mariner and sailed the gally Augustus.


 * Edmund, b. c. 1683, d. Aug 1683


 * Robert, b. 18 June 1684, d. c. 1740, m. Boston 12 May 1709 Elizabeth WELCH, b. Boston 3 June 1689, daughter of John Welch and Elizabeth White. Robert was a sailmaker and lived in Boston.  He and Elizabeth had twelve children born from 1710 to 1727.  This quote from Drake's History of Boston is of interest:  "It should be noted that a substantial recognition of the great services of Mr. Thomas Goffe, the supposed owner of the May-Flower, as the warm friend and promoter of the settlement of New England, was made in 1734, when the General Court of the Province of Massachusetts Bay granted his grandnephew, Robert Rand, of Boston, -- the sole heir of Goffe's daughter, Mrs. Sarah Watts, --- one thousand acres of land, in response to his petition, setting forth Mr. Goffe's services and losses. Rand recites that Mr. Goffe died on a voyage to this country." (Drake's History of Boston, p. 588)

(7g) Edmund Rand
Rand gen, p 27

Edmund, the son of Thomas Rand and Sarah Longley of Charlestown, Mass., was born there 22 Aug 1686, d. Hampton, NH 12 Aug 1769 (per 1905 Rand Genealogy), and m. Ipswich, Mass. 27 Sep 1708 Martha TUCKERMAN, b. Ipswich 27 June 1686, d. Hampton, NH 21 July 1752 (NEHGR, 1904, p 139, deaths in Hampton, NH: "1752, July 21 mr Rands wife died"). Edmund appears to have been a resident of Hampton since just after his marriage, and was a glover by trade. He witnessed the will of Joshua Towle there on 2 Nov 1714, and the will of John Fuller there on 9 July 1719. He also witnessed a deed there on 26 Feb 1730/1. His will was probated in Exeter, NH on 30 Aug 1769. Children, all b. Hampton, NH:


 * Sarah, b. 13 Dec 1709, m. Hampton 25 Dec 1828 Stephen SMITH, b. Hampton 12 Dec 1699, d. there 4 March 1773, the son of Samuel Smith and Ruth Haskell. They had four children.


 * Martha, b. 27 June 1711, d. Hampton 4 or 9 July 1782, m. Hampton 17 Jan 1733/4 Benjamin MASON, b. Hampton 13 Dec 1708, d. there 22 Feb 1799, the son of Robert Mason and Maria Redman.


 * Mary, b. 3 Oct 1714, d. Hampton 5 May 1753, m. Hampton 13 Nov 1735 Jonathan LEAVITT, b. Hampton 31 Aug 1712, d. there 12 Mary 1788, the son of Thomas Levitt and Elizabeth Atkinson. Following Mary's death, Jonathan m. (2) c. 1756 Anna Dole.  He had eight children with Mary born 1735 to 1749, and two more children with Anna, b. 1757 and 1760.


 * Thomas, b. 7 Nov 1717, d. 1796, m. 17 Dec 1741 Elizabeth CHAPMAN


 * Abigail, b. 31 July 1721


 * Elizabeth, b. 22 April 1723, m. Joshua BOYNTON, bapt Salisbury, Mass. 14 April 1723, the son of William Boynton and Joanna Stevens. I have found nothing definitive on Joshua, but he appears to have served during the French and Indian War, and one of his name served during the American Rev. War, perhaps even at the Battle of Bunker Hill.  Some sources say he died in Hollis, NH in 1796, others say he died in Canterbury, NH in 1814, likely referring to two different people of the same name.  The Abstract Graves of Revolutionary Soldiers says one of his name is buried in a field east of the Baptist church in Canterbury, NH.  I can confirm none of these assertions.

(6g) Thomas Rand
Thomas Rand, the son of Edmund Rand and Martha Tuckerman, was b. Hampton, NH 7 Nov 1717, d. Deerfield, NH 10 April 1796, and m. in Hampton 17 Dec 1741 Elizabeth Chapman, born North Hampton, NH and baptized 11 Nov 1722, the daughter of Job Chapman and Mary Chase. Thomas lived with his family in Deerfield, NH where his name appears on the 1776 and 1790 censuses. His will was proved on 25 April 1796. Though one account says he died in Hampton, this is unlikely. Since he lived in Deerfield in 1790, he likely died there and is likely buried there, perhaps in the Rand Cemetery where his son William is buried. Children, likely all born and baptized in Hampton, NH:
 * Mary, bapt. 21 Aug 1743, d. young


 * Edmund, bapt 17 Jan 1746, d. Chichester, NH 3 May 1802, will proved 19 May 1802. He m. (1) c. 1789  Lydia (Haley) Longmaid, b. 1753, the widow of Samuel Longmaid whom she had married about 1780.  Edmund m. (2) Abigail _______.  Edmund had seven children given in the Rand genealogy (p 57).


 * Mary, bapt 24 July 1748, m. Francis HOOK. They lived in Chichester, NH, and though their burial location is not known, they may be buried in the Hook Cemetery in Chichester.


 * Martha, bapt 22 July 1750, d. Northwood, NH 27 Aug 1831, m. Deerfield 8 June 1775 John GRIFFIN, b. Deerfield 29 May 1757, d. Northwood 26 May 1833, the son of Theophilum Griffin and Mary Kimball. She and her husband are buried in the Edmunds-Griffin Cemetery in Northwood, NH.


 * Ruth, bapt 12 July 1752, d. 1837, m. Loudon, NH 27 Oct 1774 Capt John SANBORN, b. Brentwood 16 Feb 1747, d. 1826, son of Elisha Sanborn and Lydia Gordon. John was a Revolutionary War soldier.  Ruth and John are buried in the Loudon Center Cemetery, Merimack Co., NH, and they both have original markers as well as a modern combined marker.


 * Isabella, bapt 8 Sep 1754, d. Northwood, NH 14 Feb 1830, m. Brentwood, NH 10 Dec 1778 Edward SANBORN, b. Brentwood, NH 7 May 1749, d. Brentwood 2 Feb 1829, son of Elisha Sanborn and Lydia Gordon, and brother of John Sanborn, above. Edward was a Revolutionary War soldier, and was called of Deerfield when his name appeared on a muster roll, dated 20 Sep 1776, of Capt Nathan Sanborn's company, Col. Tash's regiment, raised to reinforce the Continental Army at New York.  Isabella and Edward are buried in the Sanborn family cemetery, Brentwood, NH.


 * William, b. 14 Dec 1757 (calculated from tombstone), d. Deerfield, NH 16 Jan 1842, m. 1781 Mary JAMES, b. 26 Dec 1758 (calculated), d. 7 Feb 1844. William was a Revolutionary War soldier, and enlisted in June 1776 for a period of six months in Capt Simon Marston's company, Col Wingate's regiment, New Hampshire Militia. He spent the entire time at Ticonderoga.  Jabez James, perhaps a brother or other close relative to his wife, was also there in a different company, but the same regiment, and the two returned home together.  Jabez later testified on behalf of Rand when he applied for a military pension, which was ultimately approved in the amount of $20 per annum.  Some family accounts say that William was born about 1744.  If there was a William born in that year, he certainly died young.  The pension application for William Rand clearly indicates that the birth date given here is accurate.  William had eight children listed in the Rand genealogy (p 57), but only one with a birth date.  William and Mary are buried in the Rand Cemetery, Deerfield, NH.


 * Elizabeth, bapt 30 March 1760 (Hampton?), d. 16 March 1836, m. 1779 Jethro SANBORN, b. Kingston, NH 15 Nov 1755, d. Sutton, Vermont 22 Jan 1829, son of William Sanborn and Mary Sleeper. Jethro is likely the one of his name who was a Revolutionary War soldier.  They had eleven children.  Elizabeth and Jethro are buried in the Sutton Village Cemetery, Caledonia Co., Vermont.


 * Abigail, bapt Hampton 25 July 1762, d. Danville, VT 30 Nov 1840 in 79th year, m. Eli BICKFORD, b. Durham, NH 29 Sep 1754, d. North Danville, VT 5 May 1856, aged 101y 7m 6d, son of Samuel Bickford and Elizabeth Clark. Eli was a Revolutionary War soldier, enlisting in June 1775 as a private in Capt Adams' company, Col Poor's regiment of New Hampshire Troops, serving seven months.  He then enlisted in September 1776 in Capt Smith Emerson's company, Col Tash's regiment, and served another three months.  In 1832 he resided in Danville, Vermont.  A short biography was published about him.  Abigail and Eli are buried in the Massey Cemetery, North Danville, Vermont.

(10g) Edmond Eddenden
Threlfall:GMC26(1993):83-84; NEHGR 67(1913):37-44

(9g) William Longley
TAG 62:26, Bent, Historic Homes...; Vital Records of Groton, Lynn, Chelmsford

William, the son of John Longley of Firsby, Lincolnshire, England, was born c. 1614, d. Groton, Mass. 29 Nov 1680 (VR), and m. c. 1637 Joanna GOFFE, b. 1618, d. Charlestown 18 April 1698, aged 79. Following William's death, Joanna m. (2) c. 1683 Benjamin Crispe whose first wife, Bridget, died about the time of the Indian raid on Groton, 13 March 1675/6, and may have been killed during the attack. By some accounts, Joanna was the sister of Thomas Goffe who was one of the investors who financed the Mayflower during its transatlantic voyages, and who was named the Deputy Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Company in 1626, before the company's charter came to New England in 1630. It is highly doubtful that Thomas was a brother of Joanna, because anyone making sizable investments in the 1620s was likely born in the 1580s. Therefore, if there is a family connection, Thomas Goffe may have been a father or uncle of Joanna, but not a brother. William Longley was of Lynn, Mass. in 1638 when he bought a house and land there, and he held a variety of offices there. He was often at odds with his neighbors over land claims. In 1663 Longley moved with his family from Lynn to Groton. Richard Blood, Capt. James Parker and William Longley were the three original proprietors of Groton with the largest land holdings, and Longley's property likely included land in the future town of Shirley, where most of his descendants seem to have flourished. During King Philip's War in 1676, Groton was destroyed, and Longley took his family to Charlestown, where they stayed for one or two years. William's will was dated 23 Nov 1680, making bequests to his wife, both sons and four daughters, and naming a few grandchildren. His inventory was dated 21 Feb 1680[/1]. The will of "Johanna Crisp, relict widow of Benjamin Crisp of Groton, and formerly widow of William Longley of Groton" was dated 13 April 1698, and proved 28 Dec 1698, naming three daughters Mary Leman, Sarah Rand and Lidia Nutting, granddaughters Sarah Nutting, Lidia Longly, Elizabeth Longley, Anna Lavrance [Lawrence?], Mary Shaddock [Shattuck?], Elizabeth Shaddock, grandsons William Longley and Samuel Leman, and "three grandchildren that are in captivity", children of her son William Longley, Jr., who were taken during a raid in 1694. Daughter Sarah Rand was sole executrix and witnesses were Jno Newell, Jacob W[aters?], and Nathll Dows. It appears that Joanna lived her final years with her daughter Sarah Rand in Charlestown, in light of Sarah being executrix of her will. Joanna has an extant gravestone in the Phipps Street Burying Ground in Charlestown, Mass. Children, all born in Lynn (but only the youngest child found in the Lynn Vital Records):


 * John, b. 1638, m. Sarah _______, d. Groton 8 March 1718 as "Sarey, wife of John Longley". Margaret, daughter of John b. Groton 28 Dec 1671; Mary, ditto, 10:11m:1673 (10 Jan 1673/4).  John's two sons William and Nathaniel were named in the 1680 will of John's father, and William was named in the 1698 will of John's mother as were their daughters, Elizabeth Longley and Lidia Longly.


 * Mary, b. 1642, living 1698, m. 1666 Samuel LEMAN/LEMONT. Samuel Leamond, son of Samuel and Marcy, b. Groton 29:2m:1667 (29 April 1667).  Their sons Samuel and Nathaniel are named in the 1680 will of her father, and Samuel is named in the 1698 will of her mother.


 * William, b. 20 Dec 1643, d. Groton 27 July 1694 during Indian raid, m. (1) Groton 14 May 1672 Lydia _______ (surname missing from Groton VR) and m. (2) 1673 Deliverance CRISPE, b. c. 1650, d. 27 July 1694, the daughter of Benjamin and Bridget Crispe of Watertown and Groton, Mass. Some time after 1680, the widowed father of Deliverance, Benjamin Crispe, married the widowed mother of William, Joanna (Goffe) Longley.  On 27 July 1694, William, his wife Deliverance, and five of their eight children were killed, and three children were taken captive during an Indian raid.  Of the three children taken captive, one daughter starved to death, according to the predominant narrative, one daughter, Lydia, was assimilated into French society in Montreal and baptized into the Catholic Church, and the son, John, was eventually returned to his family, though reluctantly.  Guardianship of this son John was given to his uncle, Thomas Tarbole (Tarbell) who gave a guardian's accounting on 7 March 1704[/5?].  In a statement, the daughter Lydia gave her birth date as 14 April 1674 and her parents as William Longley and Deliverance Crispe.  This birth date is about six weeks later than her birth date in the Groton vital record: 1:1m:1673/4 (1 March 1673/4).  Of the eight children, the births of only three are in the Groton records.  The predominant narrative says that William's first wife bore a child, but if they were married 14 May 1672 and had a child (born say Feb 1672/3), William and Deliverance must have married by about May 1673 in order to have Lydia born 1 March 1673/4.  A memorial stone has been placed at the site where the massacre of this Longley family took place.


 * Hannah, b. 1646, m. Groton 31 July 1666 (VR) Thomas TARBELL. Anna, wife of Thomas Tarbole, Jr., d. Groton 29 Dec 1680.  A Thomas Tarball m. Groton 1 Dec 1686 Elizabeth Wood.  A Thomas Tarbell d. Groton 8 Oct 1715 (VR).  Hannah Tarball and Thomas her son are named in the 1680 will of her father, but no Tarbell is named in the 1698 will of her mother.


 * Elizabeth, b. c. 1649, m. Groton 7 Sep 1669 (VR) James BLOOD (she was not named in father's 1680 will or her mother's 1698 will). They had three children born in Groton, listed under the surname BLOUD: Richard, 29 May 1670 (d. Groton 8 July 1670); Mary, 1 Sep 1672; and Elizabeth, 27:2mo:1675 (27 April 1675).  Were these last two daughters the Mary Shaddock and Elizabeth Shaddock named in the will of Elizabeth's mother in 1698?


 * Ann, b. say 1653, perhaps died young; she is not named in her father's or mother's wills.


 * Lydia, b. 1 Jan 1656/7, living in 1698, m. by 23 Nov 1680 (father's will) James NUTTING, b. c. 1653, son of John Nutting and Sarah Eggleston. James may have been born at Woburn, where his older brother John was born, but they were both baptized at Chelmsord, Mass., James on 3:6m:1656 (3 Aug 1656, "aged 3 y.30: 4 m: 1656" per Chelmsford VR).  Lydia and James had several children born in Groton during the 1680s and 1690s.  Lidia is named in the 1680 will of her father and the 1698 will of her mother; her daughter Sarah Nutting is named in the 1698 will.


 * Sarah, b. 15:8mo:1660 (15 Oct 1660; VR), m. (1) 1679 Thomas RAND; m. (2) 1701 Benjamin WATTS.

John was taxed in 1650 and 1652 and a member of the Salisbury church in 1677.  He may have been in London in March 1664/5 when John Hall wrote to his mother mentioning his chance encounter with another New England man, John Eaton.  John's will was dated 12 Sep 1682, but Hoyt is unclear as to its probate.  Widow Martha was a member of the Salisbury church in 1687.  They had eleven children born from c. 1643 to 1663.

(9g) Thomas Chase
GDMeNH:139; Chase Gen 475-483

Thomas Chase was born c. 1615, d. 1652, and m. c. 1641 Elizabeth PHILBRICK, b. 1621, d. Hampton (NH) 11 Feb 1677, the daughter of Thomas Philbrick and Elizabeth Knapp. Thomas was the brother of Aquila Chase, and because that name is so unusual, it suggests that they were closely related to Aquila Chase of Chesham, Buckinghamshire, England, who was baptized there 14 Aug 1580, the son of Robert Chase and Joan Bishop. Thomas and Aquila of New England were very likely grandsons of Robert Chase, but by which son cannot be surely ascertained. The Chase Genealogy makes it clear that it is highly unlikely that Thomas and Aquila were sons of the Aquila baptized in 1580. The subject Thomas Chase was a seaman, and came to Hampton (NH) in 1639 with his brother Aquila, and they both had grants there on 24 Dec 1639. They both sued Lt. Howard in 1648. Administration of the estate of Thomas was given to widow Elizabeth on 5 Oct 1652. She m. (2) 26 Oct 1654 John Garland who d. Hampton 4 Jan 1672, aged 50; and m. (3) Hampton 19 Jan 1673/4 Henry Robie of Hampton. Children of Thomas and Elizabeth:


 * Thomas, b. Hampton 1643, d. Hampton 23 Oct 1714, aged 72 (gravestone at Seabrook), was a Quaker preacher, chronicled by Thomas Story. He was convicted at the Quarterly Court at Salisbury on 13 April 1669 "for not coming to the public ordinance."  A year later he was convicted of the same, and for also using reproachful speeches against Mr. Cotton and his doctrine.  In 1674 he and twelve others were convicted and admonished for gathering as Quakers.  His will was dated 26 April 1712 and proved 8 Dec 1714.  He never married, and left his estate to siblings, nephews and nieces.


 * Joseph, b. c. 1646 (aged about 26 in April 1673), d. 12 Jan 1717/8, m. Hampton 31 Dec 1671 Rachel PARTRIDGE, b. Salisbury, Mass. 19 June 1650, d. Hampton 27 Oct 1718, the daughter of William and Ann Partridge. Joseph's will was dated 14 June 1704 with codicil 19 May 1716; it was proved 12 Feb 1717/8.  They had six children born from 1672 to 1687.


 * James, b. c. 1648, m. Elizabeth GREEN (below).


 * Isaac, b. Hampton 1 April 1650


 * Abraham, b. Hampton 6 Aug 1652, d. 1676, was a Quaker and was killed during King Philips War on the Marlboro front. Administration of his estate was given to brother Thomas in April 1676 (per GDMeNH, but Gen gives date as 30 May 1676).

(8g) James Chase
GDMeNH:138,132; Chase Gen:481-2, 49-50

James, the son of Thomas Chase and Elizabeth Philbrick, was born c. 1648, d. by 1692, and m. 2 Nov 1675 Elizabeth GREEN, b. Hampton 11 June 1656. She appears to be the Elizabeth Chase of Hampton who was in court in 1692 for having two children and no husband. Administration of the estate of James was given to son-in-law John Chase on 7 March 1703/4, and the division of the estate on 4 June 1705 was divided among three daughters and ignored the widow Elizabeth. She later married Joseph Cass of Hampton, b. 5 Oct 1656, living in 1733, the son of John Cass and Martha Philbrick. Children:


 * Hannah, b. 22 Dec 1677, died before her grandfather Green.


 * Abigail, b. 27 Aug 1681, m. c. 1697 John CHASE, b. Newbury, Mass. c. 1678 (aged about 29 on 28 Feb 1707/8), dead by 1710, the son of John (of Aquila). On 26 Aug 1715 a warrant was issued against Abigail for having a child, reputedly the son of Henry Green, who went through life with the name Daniel Chase, alias Green.  Abigail and John had six children born from 1698 to 1711.  Five surviving children agreed to a division of their father's estate on 29 Nov 1727.


 * Dorothy, b. 17 March 1685/6, m. 16 March 1705 John CHAPMAN, b. say 1681, d. 17 Oct 1705, the son of Samuel Chapman and Ruth Ingalls. They had one son, John, born 20 Nov 1705.

(2) 10 March 1690/1 Mary (HUSSEY) Page, the widow of Thomas Page, who m. (3) Capt. Henry Dow. There may be a connection between Henry Green and Anne Greene, the wife of John Moulton of Hampton, who were married in Ormsby, Norfolk 24 Sep 1623. Henry, styled "esquire", was in Ipswich by 1642, and in possession of land in Hampton by May 1644, where he established his residence on the south side of Taylor's River by 1653. He was a carpenter, millwright, and mill-owner. He was twice a commissioner to settle the Salisbury line, and served as Hampton selectman, moderator, Justice, and Chief Justice. His will was dated 2 Aug and proved 20 Aug 1700, naming his second wife, all of his children, and the Chase children of his daughter Elizabeth Cass. Either Henry or his first wife Mary were closely related to Abraham and Isaac Perkins. Children:


 * Abraham, b. c. 1645, d. 27 Feb 1717/8, m. 9 July 1668 Esther SWETT, b. 7 (or 17) June 1648, d. by 1717/8, daughter of Capt. Benjamin Swett and Esther Weare. They had five children born from 1669 to 1687.

 * Abigail, b. 6 Oct 1650, d. 13 May 1669


 * Isaac, b. 25 [Jan?] 1651/2, d. 12 May 1716 aged 70 (per gravestone in Seabrook Quaker Cem., but age is certainly incorrect), m. 18 Feb 1673/4 Mary CASS, b. c. 1651, the daughter of John Cass and Martha Philbrick. His will was dated 20 Feb 1712/3.  There is a possibility that he was also the Isaac Green of Salisbury, but if so, he had two different wives named Mary. (Hoyt:182).  Isaac had five known children born from 1681 to 1698.


 * Jacob, b. c. 1653 (about 27 in 1680), d. 5 Nov 1726, m. Sarah _______, d. 18 April 1723. They had four known children born from 1693 to 1704.

(7g) James Langley I
Langley Gen:153-6

James Langley, was born roughly 1675, d. 1731, and married c. 1705 Mary RUNNELS, b. say 1682, d. 1737, the daughter of Job Runnels and Sarah Crawford. It is possible that James was the son of Thomas Langley, who was absent from a meeting, apparently in Kittery or York (Maine) in 1690. This is probably the same person as "Old Langley", a maltster of Portsmouth, NH, who was taxed there in 1722, 1724, and 1725. James bought the old William Drew farm from Stephen Jenkins and settled in Oyster River (now Durham), New Hampshire in 1714. He sold a share of his property in Newcastle Commons in 1721. He was an original member of the Oyster River Church in 1718, and a deacon on 17 June 1724. Administration of his estate was given to widow Mary on 16 Feb 1730/1. Mary's will, dated 19 Sep 1736, was proved 18 April 1737, and names the seven children who were earlier named in the division of her husband's estate. As to the burial location of James and Mary, Everett Stackpole in his History of Durham (1:245) wrote, "The graves of 'Deacon Langley and Mary his godly wife,' as the record of the Rev. Hugh Adams has it, are said to be on the old Langley farm, earlier that of William Drew." Children:


 * James, "eldest son", b. c. 1706, m. 31 Aug 1727 by Rev. Hugh Adams, Hannah EDGERLY, the daughter of John Edgerly and Elizabeth Rawlings.


 * Thomas, b. c. 1708, d. 1778, m. (1) c. 1730, Hannah KENT, daughter of Joseph and Jane Kent He m. (2) Newington, NH 7 Sep 1743 Sarah TRICKEY of Newington, daugter of John Trickey, and m. (3) in Portsmouth, NH 9 July 1773 Esther ROSS.   The order of the wives of Thomas was given incorrectly by Stackpole in the History of Durham, and copied by others.  Thomas was of age in 1732, and of Oyster River at the time.  On 3 Jan 1734[/5?] he signed a petition along with his brothers James, John, and Job, requesting a grant of land.  Confusing is the wording of the petition saying that "they" (presumably the same individuals) made a similar petition "six or seven years ago".  Based on the current understanding of their ages, some would have been underage at the time.  Thomas had military training, and appeared on 1732 and 1740 lists of trained soldiers in Oyster River.  He served in Col. Nathaniel Meserve's regiment during the Crown Point Expedition from 5 March to 5 Nov 1757.  Thomas's will, dated 19 Jan 1778, was proved 20 april 1778.  Thomas had 13 children: three with first wife, c. 1731 to c. 1735; eight with second wife, c. 1744 to c. 1761; and two with last wife, c. 1773 and c. 1775.


 * John, b. c. 1712, likely the Mr. John Langley buried 13 June 1796, per the burial register of Rev. Curtis Coe. He m. (1) c. 1741 Mary (_______) Everet, bur. 6 May 1783; m. (2) Durham (NH) 16 Oct 1783 Sarah (NUDD) Dearborn, b. c. 1729, living in 1820, aged 90, the daughter of James Nudd and Abigail Thomas, and widow of Edward Dearborn of Greenland.  John had Capt. Francis Mathes as his guardian in 1732. He was just about of age, because he appeared on the Durham military lists in 1732 and 1740.  The children for John are uncertain, but five possibilities with his first wife were born from c. 1743 to c. 1755.


 * Job, b. c. 1716, d. 1755, m. Elizabeth _______. He had Capt. Francis Mathes as his guardian in 1732.  In his will, dated 26 Sep 1755 and proved 29 Oct 1755, he calls himself of Dover, and names wife Elizabeth to receive one half of personal estate and half of a dwelling house near Durham, and half of real estate.  Daughter Elizabeth Langley to receive all of homestead estate and rest of real and personal estate.  If daughter Elizabeth to die without issue, then job's brother Samuel Langley to have all real estate.  Samuel Langley sole executor.  Inventory on 14 No 1755 shows 4389 pounds, 11s.  It appears that Job's widow m. (2) Joseph Smith.  Job and Elizabeth had only two known children, and only one who survived, born c. 1740.


 * Elizabeth, bapt. 20 April 1718, apparently died young, as she is not mentioned in the probate settlements of either parent (1731 and 1736).


 * Mary, bapt. 22 July 1722, m. June 1743 Samuel BROWN, d. E. Kingston, NH 1774, likely the grandson of immigrant Abraham Brown, cooper. Mary had Deacon Joseph Wheeler as her guardian in 1732.  Mary and Samuel had seven children born from 1745 to 1760.


 * Samuel, b. Oyster River (now Durham, NH) 5 Jan 1724, bp 10 Apr 1726, d. c. 1800, and m. (1) Durham c. 1753 Hannah RUNNELS, b. Oyster River 5 June 1728, the daughter of Job Runnels and Hannah Huckins. He m. (2) by 1773 Hannah TUTTLE, daughter of John Tuttle and Elizabeth Nute.  Samuel's guardian in 1732 was Deacon Joseph Wheeler.  He was named as sole executor in the will of his brother Job of Durham, dated 26 Sep 1755.  Samuel was a farmer in Lee.  His will, dated 13 March 1777, was proved in May 1800, his widow surviving him.  Samuel had five known children, all with his first wife, born from c. 1754 to 1766.


 * Eldad (sometimes Aldad), bapt. Oyster River 12 May 1728, d. winter 1795/6, and married 28 Feb 1750/1 Sarah DREW of Dover. Eldad had Deacon Joseph Wheeler as his guardian in 1732.  The History of Nottingham, Northwood, and Deerfield suggests that Eldad had a child with an Indian woman, before he married Sarah.  If this is true, then the child's name was likely Joseph, who interacted with Edad's other two older sons, Winthrop and Benjamin.  Eldad bought land of Ebenezer Drew in 1758, a probable son of Thomas Drew of Madbury.  It is possible that Ebenezer was a brother of Eldad's wife, making her a likely daughter of Thomas.  Eldad is last of record on 11 Feb 1795 when he sold land to his sons Benjamin and Moses.  He was called dead in Feb 1796 by witnesses of that deed, and the previous month, on 14 Jan 1796 bond was posted by son Benjamin Langley with the probate court for administration of his estate.  The inventory of his estate was approved 21 March 1796 with a total value of $40 (he had distributed most of his estate earlier).  Five children have been identified, born c. 1750 to c. 1767.

(6g) James Langley II
Langley Gen:150-3

James Langley, the son of James Langley and Mary Reynolds/Runnels, was born c. 1706, likely in Portsmouth, living in 1744, and married 31 Aug 1727 (by Rev. Hugh Adams, likely in Durham, NH) Hannah EDGERLY, born c. 1707, living in 1737, the daughter of John Edgerly and Elizabeth Rawlings. A deed dated 10 Sep 1737 is the last one naming James (and Hannah) Langley of Durham. However, James later acknowledged the deed on 15 Oct 1744 (without Hannah) before it was recorded in Feb 1744/5. A 1740 militia roster for Durham includes Thomas, John, and Jobe Langley, but does not include their brother James. A 1754 petition by residents of Durham and other towns is signed by a James Langley (likely the son of this James). A 1766 deed is the next deed naming a James Langley, of Durham, buying land in Nottingham, this almost certainly involving the son of this James, who is best referred to as James Langley III. Since James may have died as a fairly young man, he has been placed in the cemetery in Durham where his parents are buried. The precise location of the cemetery is not known, but is on the original Drew property that James Langley Sr. purchased. 

Probable child:


 * James, b. c. 1730, d. c. 1814, m. (1) Charlotte EMERSON; (2) Esther SHAW; (3) Ruth _______. They lived in the part of Nottingham, NH that became Deerfield, and James is enumerated in the 1790 census for Deerfield with three sons.

(5g) James Langley III
Langley Gen:147-50,157

I spoke with Deerfield historian Joanne Wasson, 603-463-8350, about Langley and Griffin Cemeteries on 1/12/2016.

James, most likely the son of James Langley II and Hannah Edgerly, was b. Durham, NH roughly 1730, d. Deerfield c. 1814, m. c. 1760 (1) Charlotte EMERSON, b. c. 1740, d. c. 1782, whose provenance remains unknown. The only way we know her name is from the History of Andover, NH which says the parents of Isaiah Langley were James Langley and Charlotte Emerson. Charlotte likely died about 1782, so James m. (2) by c. 1785 Esther SHAW, who was possibly the daughter of Benjamin Shaw of Nottingham, NH, whose will, dated 16 Jan 1757, mentioned daughter Ester Shaw, a minor. James m. (3) Ruth _____, who is named in his probate settlement. The birth year of James is based on the assumption that he is the one of his name who signed a petition in Durham, NH in 1754 (his assumed father having died in the 1740s). Furthermore, in a 1731 court case, his assumed father had one child, and his mother was pregnant, so James is likely one of these two children, born say 1729 and 1731. He is certainly the James Langley of Durham, NH who bought land in Nottingham, NH in 1766. This was the same year that the town of Deerfield was established from a section of Nottingham. James appears in the 1776, 1790, and 1800 censuses of Deerfield, New Hampshire. He was called late of Deerfield on 27 Oct 1815 when his heirs settled his estate, the administration of which began on 18 May 1814. The children were born in Durham or Deerfield. The first six may have been born in Durham, and the last four in Deerfield, but that is subject to debate:


 * Sarah, b. c. 1761, living in 1840, m. Epsom, NH 6 Sep 1786 Isaac HOAG, b. Amesbury, Mass. 7:7mo:1752 (7 July? 1752), living in 1830. Isaac Hoag appears with family, under various misspellings, on the 1790, 1800, and 1810 censuses in Pittsfield, NH.  They were still of Pittsfield in 1815 when the estate of Sarah's father was settled, but in 1820 they were living in Canterbury, NH.  In 1830 Sarah and Isaac were living with their son Isaac Hoague (spelled Heague in the records) in Canterbury, and in 1840 Sarah was still with her son, but Isaac had apparently died.  Sarah and Isaac had nine known children.  They were buried in family plot with their son Isaac and their daughters, but in 1905 their son's remains were disinterred and moved to Maple Grove Cemetery in Canterbury.


 * Mary "Polly", b. c. 1763 (45+ in 1810), living in 1815, m. Deerfield 16 June 1786 Job LANGLEY, b. c. 1763, living in 1815, the son of Samuel-2 Langley (James-1) and Hannah Reynolds.  Job appears on the 1790, 1800, and 1810 censuses of Nottingham, NH, appearing to have wife, son, and two daughters in 1790.  In 1800 they had an older female living with them (aged 45+), perhaps the mother of Job. They were still living in Nottingham in 1815 during the division of her father's estate.


 * Samuel, b. 7 Nov 1765, d. 21 Jan 1836, m. Deerfield 14 May 1785 Hannah GRIFFIN, b. 1766, d. 19 Sep 1850. Samuel and Hannah are buried in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester, NH.


 * James, b. c. 1767, adm 20 May 1807, m. c. late 1790 (single in 1790 census, but child born 1791) Mary "Molly" MORSE, b. 1772, d. April 1839, aged 66, daughter of Enoch Morse and Catherine McDaniels. James could be much older than assumed here.  He appears as a single male in Deerfield in 1790, but in 1800 was there with what appear to be wife, two sons, and two daughters, the children all under age 10. Mary has a grave marker in the Morrison Cemetery in Deerfield.


 * Benjamin, b. c. 1769, d. summer 1829, (aged 59 per death notice appearing before Aug 1829), m. c. 1790 (5 ch in 1800) Elizabeth BROWN, b. Candia, NH c. 1765, living in 1830. He appears on the 1800 census in Deerfield with what appear to be wife, three sons and two daughters, and on the 1810 census there with eight children, he being aged 26-44, and his wife being aged 45+.  He was of Deerfield during the settlement of his father's estate in 1815, but is not found in 1820.  His will, dated 22 June 1829, was proved 2 Sep 1829, naming wife Elizabeth, sons Caleb, Noah, Edmond, and Benjamin Langley, and daughters Polly, wife of John Edgerly; Sally, wife of John McDaniel; Fanny, wife of Greentiff (?) Allen; and [Li?]ther Langley.  His widow Elizabeth appears to be the female aged 60-69 in the household of his son Benjamin Langley in Deerfield in 1830.  This Benjamin should not be confused with a contemporary of the same name living in Nottingham, and a Rev. War pensioner, born about 1757.


 * Isaiah, b. Durham, NH 25 Oct 1770, d. Andover, NH 1 Aug 1852, aged 81y 9m. He married 4 Jan 1793, likely in Deerfield, NH, Sarah FREESE, b. Deerfield 23 May 1774, d. Andover, NH 6 Feb 1853, aged 78y 8m. He was a cooper and farmer, and settled on Beech Hill in Andover, NH. In 1790 he appears as a single male in Deerfield.  Soon after their marriage he and his wife went to Andover, NH, where they lived the remainder of their lives, appearing with family in the 1800, 1810, 1820, 1830, and 1850 censuses.  He was also called of Andover in 1815 during the settlement of his father's estate.  Isaiah and Sarah are buried in the Andover Center Cemetery.


 * Charlotte, b. 1773 (or 1774), d. Deerfield, NH 29 June 1842, aged 68, m. Deerfield 6 May 1795 Jacob DOW, b. Salisbury, MA 1759, d. Deerfield, NH 2 Jan 1835, aged 75, the son of Joseph Dow and Naomi Carr. They were of Deerfield in 1800 with one son and one daughter, not found in 1810 (a Jacob Dow, Jr. was in Deerfield, but this is not a son of this Jacob), but there in 1815 when settling her father's estate.  They are also on the 1820 and 1830 censuses in Deerfield, though Charlotte is not found in 1840, and likely living with one of her children.  Charlotte and Jacob had seven known children, born 1796 to 1811.  Charlotte and Jacob are buried in the Dow-Wiggin Cemetery in Deerfield, NH.


 * John, b. 1775, d. Andover, NH 11 June 1825, aged 50, m. Deerfield 29 April 1801 Hannah BARTLETT, b. 1779, d. Deerfield 20 Sep 1830, aged 51, the daughter of Moses and Sarah (Bartlett) Bartlett. He was the John Langley from New Hampshire who served, at the age of 37, in the War of 1812, being a private in Long's Command of Artillery, NH Militia.  John and Hannah appear to have had eight children based on the 1820 census.  The administration of his estate commenced on 14 July 1825.  John was of Deerfield in 1815 when settling his father's estate.  He appears on the 1810 census in Deerfield with what appear to be wife and four children under 10, and he appears on the 1820 census in Deerfield with what appear to be wife and eight children, three boys and five girls. The widow Hannah Langley appears on the 1830 census in Deerfield with seven children.  John is buried in the Andover Central Cemetery where his brother Isaiah is also found, but it seems odd that he is buried there since all of his associations were in Deerfield.  Hannah is buried in the Smith Cemetery in Deerfield, with her daughter Polly.


 * Reuben, b. c. 1777, d. Oct 1826, m. Deerfield 13 March 1800 Lucy PAGE, b. c. 1780, d. Dec 1840. Reuben was a soldier in the War of 1812, being a private in Long's Command of Artillery, New Hampshire Militia.  He was of Deerfield in 1815 when his father's estate was settled.  He appears on the 1810 census in Deerfield with wife and six children: an older girl and five young boys, and on the 1820 census in Deerfield with wife and five children.  His will, dated 4 October 1826, was recorded a month later, and his inventory taken 7 Nov 1826; he left to wife Lucy, five sons Josiah, Reuben, True, Timothy, and Seth Langley, and daughter Abigail Jane Langley.  Lucy's will, dated 5 Dec 1840, was proved 13 Jan 1841, and left legacies mostly to her grandchildren.


 * Esther, b. c. 1786, d. 17 Nov 1817 (from web source, but consistent with his remarriage in 1818), m. c. 1807 (cb 1808) Richard LIBBEY, b. Epsom, NH 1784, d. Allenstown, NH 11 Feb 1866, the son of Jethro and Abigail Libbey. They lived in Epsom in 1815.  Following Esther's death, Richard was married in Epsom on 19 Nov 1818 to Miriam Goddhue.  She must have died soon, and Richard was married a third time, in Deerfield on 27 Jan 1825 to Abigail Chase.  Richard appears on the 1840 census in Epsom, with wife, aged 40-49, and a presumed son, 10-14 and daughter, 10-14.  He then appears on the 1850 and 1860 censuses in Allenstown with wife Abigail and sons Moses and Theodate.  Esther had one known child, Ester, b. 1808, d. 4 July 1889, m. John Wiggin, and they are buried in the Dow-Wiggin Cem. in Deerfield with Esther's older half sister, Charlotte (Langley) Dow.  Richard is buried in the Brackett-Libbey Cemetery in Epsom, NH.

NOTE: A Caleb Langley witnessed the division of the estate of the heirs of James Langley in 1815. He was the son of Benjamin, above, and grandson of James and Charlotte.

(4g) Samuel Langley
Langley Gen: 327-8, 272, 281-2, 1, 322-3

Samuel Langley, the son of James Langley and Charlotte Emerson, was born November 1765, likely in Durham, NH, died in Chichester, NH 21 Jan 1836, aged 70, and married in Deerfield, NH on 14 May 1785 Hannah GRIFFIN, b. E. Kingston, NH 15 Jan 1768, d. Hooksett, NH 19 Sep 1850, who may have been a daughter of Joseph Griffin, and was almost certainly a granddaughter of Theophilus Griffin, several of whose sons settled in Deerfield. Samuel's father bought land in the part of Nottingham that became Deerfield, and they moved there while Samuel was still an infant. Samuel appears on the 1790 and 1800 censuses for Deerfield, NH, and on the 1810 and 1820 census indexes and 1830 census for Chichester, NH. Hannah appears on the 1840 census for Chichester, aged 70-80, listed with a male, aged 10-15. Hannah also appears on the 1850 mortality schedule, giving her death place as Hooksett, NH, aged 83, and cause of death as palsy. Administration of the estate of Samuel Langley began on 19 Feb 1836, with inventory dated 15 Mar 1836 showing $3000.00 in real property and $1093.44 in personal property. Samuel and Hannah are buried in the Langley Watson Cemetery (also called Horse Corner Cem.) in Chichester, NH. Children:


 * John, b. Deerfield 3 April 1789, d. Chichester 8 Nov 1862, m. (1) June 1813 Elizabeth LOCKE, b. Rye, NH 10 July 1788, d. 22 April 1823; m. (2) Epsom, NH 8 July 1824 Lois Ann SALTER, b. April 1804, d. 18 Nov 1848, aged 44, the daughter of Alexander Salter and Molly Berry; m. (3) c. 1849 Betsey Buntin, b. Hooksett, NH 1807, d. 17 May 1877. John was enumerated on the 1860 census in Chichester with his third wife and three of his ten children (six with first wife and four with second.  He and his three wives all share a tall monument in the Langley-Watson Cemetery.


 * Samuel, b. Deerfield 1791, d. Chichester Oct 1828, married in Chichester on 16 May 1816 to Betsey MORRILL, b. 11 June 1795, d. June 1830, the daughter of Micajah Morrill and Sarah Haines. Samuel and Betsey are buried in the Langley-Watson Cemetery. They had four children born from 1817 to c. 1827.


 * Aaron, b. Deerfield 1793, d. Charlestown, Mass. 13 Nov 1827, and m. Hebron (Grafton Co.), NH 29 September 1818, by Rev. Stephen Pilsbury, Tryphena P. TUCKER, b. Epson, NH July 1797, d. Boston, Mass. 10 June 1888, the daughter of Nathaniel and Betsey Tucker of Rye, NH. Tryphena was living in Alexandria (Grafton Co.), NH when the couple married. After marriage, the couple soon moved to Charlestown, Mass., where Aaron died in 1827.  Following his death, Tryphena lived as a widow for more than 60 years, and continued to reside in Charlestown, Mass. She was enumerated there on the 1850 census in the household of Charles and Eliza Stone, the latter possibly being her daughter. In 1860 she lived in Charlestown with two other adult women, and in 1870 she was still in Charlestown with two very young Langley children--May E., aged 6 and Fenia P., aged 2. In 1880 she was living in Boston, MA with two Langley children whose ages suggest they were the same two as in 1870, but their names were different: Olive M., aged 16, and Rosa F., aged 12. Her address in 1880 was given as 81 1/2 Union Street, Boston. Aaron and Tryphena had three children born from 1821 to c. 1826.  Aaron and Tryphena, and all three of their children, are buried in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester.
 * Moses, b. Deerfield c. 1795, may have been a twin of Aaron (based on the common use of these names for twins), but there is no record of their births, and the death age for Moses is illegible on his gravestone. He died in Chichester 5 June 1825, and m. c. 1818, probably in Pembroke, NH, Harriet Caroline DEARBORN, b. Rye, NH c. 1800, d. Boston, Mass. 2 July 1876, aged 76, the daughter of Joseph Dearborn and Sarah Bellamy of Rye.  Following Moses's death, Harriet m. (2) Boston 21 Nov 1833 Zophar Fairbanks, b. Harvard, Mass. c. 1805, d. Boston 17 De 1879, son of Amos and Rebecca Fairbanks.  Moses and Harriet had four children born from c. 1819 to c. 1825.  Moses is buried in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester.


 * Eliza P., b. NH March 1801, d. Merrimack Co., NH 12 Feb 1872, m. Francis Hook WATSON (see). They are buried in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester.
 * Mary, b. NH June 1807, d. Chichester 2 May 1829, aged 21y 11mo, m. (1) c. 1825 Jacob HOOK, d. c. 1828; m. (2) 14 Sep 1828 Stephen M. LOCKE, b. 29 March 1807, d. Chichester 27 Nov 1860, the son of Levi Locke and Rachael D. Towle. Mary had one child with her first husband, Jacob Hook, b. c. 1826.  Mary is buried in the Langley-Watson Cemetery in Chichester.

(9g) William Reynolds
GDMeNH:582-3; GMB(3):1572; NEHGR:162(2008):91-92

William Reynolds (sometimes Runnels), b. say 1610, d. c. 1679, m. 30 Aug 1638 Alice KITSON. In the dispute on the Piscataqua in April 1634 when two settlers were killed, William Rennoles was one of the Plymouth servants commanded by John Howland. On 6 Feb 1636/7, five acres of land was granted to William Rhenolds "lying on Ducksbury side", apparently because he had a stock of cattle. His last record in Plymouth was a 1640 sale of land in Duxbury, and he is first of record in Maine in 1653. He was licensed to operate a ferry on the Kennebunk River until 1673. On 12 Feb 1674/5, William, with his wife Alice, settled his property to his son John in return for life support, giving money to his other two sons. This deed wasn't filed until 18 Nov 1679, indicating he had likely recently died. In fact, he was likely dead on 3 July 1679 when Lt Joseph Howland appeared before the Plymouth Court to request "a competency of land for the supply of the children of William Reinolds, an old servant, to whom land is due. Children:


 * William, b. say 1639 (probably of age in 1663), married and had a son Samuel. He was a fisherman and had 200 acres next to his father, but after King Philips War (1676) moved to Pemaquid.


 * Job, b. say 1641


 * (prob.) Hope, b. say 1643, m. (1) Saco 1664 Thomas SANDERS and perh. m. (2) John CLEG.


 * daughter, mother of Alice Buss and Sarah Blanchard


 * daughter, m. _______ WORMWOOD


 * John, b. c. 1651

(8g) Job Reynolds
GDMNH

Job Reynolds, the son of William Reynolds and Alice Kitson, was b. say 1641, d. by 1692, m. Sarah CRAWFORD, b. say 1640 (father dead by 1642), the daughter of Stephen and Margaret Crawford. The following children have been identified, but there were certainly others:


 * Job, b. say 1670, m. Hannah (HUCKINS) Chesley. He was living in 1758, but died by 1763.  His daughter Hannah, b. 1728, m. Samuel Langley, a grandson of Job Reynolds, Sr.


 * Mary, b. say 1682, m. James LANGLEY. This approximate birth date is near the earliest possibility, as she had a son born c. 1728.


 * John(?), b. c. 1696 (38 in 1734), d. 1767, m. 23 Dec 1718 Hannah CLARK. He was born much too late to be a son of Sarah Crawford.  Perhaps he was a son of Job, Jr.

(9g) Stephen and Margaret Crawford
GDMeNH:170,755,653

Stephen Crawford, b. say 1610, was dead by July 1642, and m. Margaret _______, b. c. 1615 (about 65 in 1680), living in 1701. Stephen was a fisherman at Kittery (now Maine) and the Isles of Shoals. Following his death, Margaret m. (2) Thomas Willey, b. c. 1617 (about 63 in 1680), d. 1681. Administration of the estate of Thomas Willey was given to widow Margaret and son John on 7 Sep 1681. Margaret m. (3) aft 1681 Barnard Squire, b. c. 1632. Children of Margaret and Stephen Crawford:


 * Susan, b. say 1637, d. 1649. Following her father's death, her mother and stepfather were appointed as guardians.  She had been adopted by Crawford's partner, William Seavey, and was being doctored (for what?) in Boston.  Administration of her estate was given to her sister Sarah on 6 Oct 1649 [but Sarah was just a child!].


 * Sarah, b. say 1640, m. (1) _______ _______; m. (2) Job REYNOLDS (or Runnels). PROBLEM!! If Sarah was the daughter of Stephen Crawford, she had to be born by 1642 (when he was dead).  However, she is credited with having a child in 1696 (see above).  That would make her at least 54 years old--extremely doubtful.

Children of Margaret and Thomas Willey:

(8g) Thomas Edgerly
GDMeNH:215; NEHGR:34(1880):282-7

Thomas Edgerly, b. c. 1640 (about 71 in Jan 1711/2), living in 1715, m. 28 Sep 1665 Rebecca (AULT) Hallowell, b. 1641, the widow of Henry Hallowell, adm 30 June 1663, and daughter of John Ault and Remembrance Tibbetts. Thomas was an apprentice under Capt. Isaac Johnson of Roxbury, then came to Oyster River and married a young widow. He was received as an inhabitant of Dover (NH) on 19 March 1665/6, and was a freeman 15 May 1672. He was a justice of the Court of Sessions under Cranfield, but was removed for insubservience. In the Oyster River Massacre of 1694, he was taken captive, but escaped. Though he handled the probate cases of many others, he did not allow his own estate to go through probate, thus we lose a chance to learn of his children. In his 1880 article on the family, James Edgerly gives birth years for each of the following children, though they are likely estimates; I will use them to give the family structure, but they may be off by many years. Known children:


 * Thomas, b. c. 1666 (however, about 31 in 1701 per GDMNH), d. Exeter, NH 1719, m. (1) 3 Dec 1691 Jane WHIDDEN of Greenland; (2) Abigail Judkins. He lived at Oyster River until 1700, then moved to Exeter.  He had five children born 1693 to 1702, probably all with first wife.


 * Samuel, b. c. 1668, d. Oyster River 1725, m. 1695 Elizabeth TUTTLE, b. say 1675, the daughter of Capt. John Tuttle. Following Samuel's death, Elizabeth m. (2) 20 July 1725 Dea. John Ambler.  Samuel had seven children born from 1697 to 1716.


 * John, b. c. 1670, d. Durham 1739, m. by tradition Elizabeth RAWLINGS.


 * Zachariah, b. c. 1673, killed by Indians in 1694 during the Oyster River Massacre.


 * Rebecca, b. c. 1675, m. Durham 2 Aug 1718 Aaron HUTCOTE (Hitchcock?), a widower.


 * Joseph, b. c. 1677, d. Oyster River 1752, m. 1712 Mary GREEN and they had four or more children. He was an Indian captive for 12 years, and brought back to Boston 1706.


 * Elizabeth, b. say 1679


 * Susannah, b. say 1681, captured by Indians and brought home Jan 1698/9

(7g) John Edgerly
John Edgerly, the son of Thomas Edgerly and Rebecca Ault, was born 1670, d. Durham, NH 1739, and m. c. 1700 Elizabeth RAWLINGS, b. c. 1680. The GDMNH (p 595) says Elizabeth may have been the daughter of Ichabod Rollins and Mary Tibbets. Interestingly, John and Elizabeth avoided naming children after their parents, naming two after themselves, but the source of the other children's names has not been determined. Children:


 * Alice, b. c. 1701, m. c. 1722 Joseph BICKFORD, b. Dover, NH 1696, living in Durham in 1767, the son of Capt Thomas-2 Bickford (John-1) and Bridget Furber. The History of Durham gives this couple four children, born c. 1723 to c. 1730, but web sources add two more later children.  Also, a web source gives Alice's death date as 14 April 1755, but I cannot confirm this.


 * John, b. 1703, d. 1797, m. 1737 Hannah AMBLER, b. Dover, NH 24 Jan 1718/9, the daughter of John Ambler and Elizabeth Trickey. As with his sister Elizabeth, there seems to be plenty of mis-information about John.  The History of Durham, NH says he was married in 1737, and had a son Joshua born in 1739; then adds that he had a daughter Deborah baptized in 1728.  Really?  The author seemed totally oblivious to this discrepancy.  Did he have an earlier wife, or was the baptismal date in error?


 * Zachariah, b. 1705, d. Madbury, NH 1780, m. (1) Durham, NH 11 Aug 1727 Joanna-4 DREW, b. say 1707, dead by 1759, the daughter of John-3 Drew (Francis-2, William-1).  Joanna was admitted to the Oyster River (Durham) Parish Church on 4 Feb 1727/8.  Zachariah m. (2) 1759 Susanna TAYLOR, about whom I can find nothing.  Zachariah had 4 children with first wife, born 1728 to 1737, and 3 more with second wife, b. 1760 to 1765.


 * Hannah, b. c. 1707, m. 31 Aug 1727 James LANGLEY, the son of James Langley and Mary Runnels of Oyster River (Durham), NH.


 * Joseph, b. c. 1709, m. Hannah LEAR, b. say 1710. I find nothing on the provenance of Hannah Lear, but I would recommend a search begin with Tobias Lear of Portsmouth, NH, who married Hannah Smith in 1706.  All I have on Joseph and Hannah from a web search is that they had a son, Edward, born in 1735.


 * Bethia, bapt 16 Nov 1718, but possibly born much earlier, m. Thomas BICKFORD, b. say 1700, the son of Thomas Bickford and Bridget Furber of Oyster River (Durham), NH. A web source says Thomas died in Durham in 1786.  I find nothing on Thomas and Bethia--not even the mention of any children.


 * Elizabeth, b. c. 1720, m. Benjamin DURGIN, b. c. 1719, d. Lee, NH 7 March 1778, the son of William Durgin and Elizabeth Pinder. Find-a-grave memorials have been created for Elizabeth and Benjamin in a Durgin family cemetery in Lee, NH.  This is a family that is ripe with misinformation.  The history of Durham says he died as a Rev War soldier on 7 March 1778; rev war abstracts says this soldier is buried at the Durgin Farm in Lee.  If he was a Rev. soldier, he can't have been born near 1700, as some claim, and instead must have been one of the youngest children in his family.  His mother died in childbirth in 1721, with another child, so the latest birth for Benjamin would be about 1719.  Most accounts give the birth year for Benjamin's wife as 1701.  Perhaps an Elizabeth was born in 1701, but it is highly unlikely that she was the wife of a Rev War soldier.  If this Rev War scenario is going to work, then Elizabeth (perhaps the second of the name born to her parents) must have been born closer to 1720.  This is where she is being placed in this compilation.

(9g) John Ault
GDMNH:68; GM:7:41

John Ault was born c. 1603, living 1674, m. say 1637 Remembrance TIBBETS, b. c. 1607, living 1674, sister of Henry Tibbetts. On 13 July 1635, Remembrance Tybbott, aged 28, was enrolled at London as a passenger for New England on the James. She was a servant to Thomas Wiggin of Piscataqua before her marriage. According to Anderson (GM:7:41) John was in Dover (NH) by 1640. John was an Oyster River constable in 1650, and served on the grand jury there in 1650 and 1660. In 1657 he and Richard York administered the estate of George Bronson. John and Remembrance deeded land to their daughters in 1669, 1672, and 1674. Children:


 * Rebecca, b. 1641, m. (1) 1660 Henry HALLOWELL; (2) 28 Sep 1665 Thomas EDGERLY.


 * Elizabeth, b. say 1645, m. by 1669 William PERKINS, b. c. 1639, living in Jan 1722/3


 * Remembrance, b. c. 1650 (about 32 in 1682), d. 1694, m. c. 1670 John RAND, b. c. 1645 (about 24 in 1669), d. 1694, the son of Francis and Christian Rand. John was an Oyster River freeman in 1672.  They were both killed during the Oyster River Massacre, and administration of their estates was given to their son John Rand and Edward Leathers on 5 March 1694/5.  Three of their children were captured and never returned, and they had three other children.

(10g) Unknown Tibbetts
GM:7:38-41; NEHGR 98(1944):57-59

Children:


 * Henry, b. c. 1596, d. 1676, m. c. 1630 Elizabeth _______, b. c. 1596. On 13 July 1635, shoemaker Henry Tybbot, aged 39 and Elizabeth Tibott, aged 39 with two of their children and his sister Remembrance were enrolled at London as passengers for New England on the James.  Where the family first settled is not known, but Henry was in Dover (NH) by 1642.  He held some minor offices such as constable and sealer of leather, and served on juries a few times.  Henry was assumed still living on 14 Feb 1675/6 when he was assessed at Dover, but dead by 27 Jun 1676 when his will was probated.  Henry and Elizabeth had three known children, b. c. 1631 to say 1635.


 * Rememberance, b. c. 1607, m. John AULT.

(9g) James Rawlins
GMB:1552-5

James Rawlins was born say 1610 (freeman 1634), d. c. 1686, and m. c. 1641 Hannah _______, b. say 1622, living in 1685. James became a Massachusetts Bay freeman 14 May 1634, but with no town specified. He lived in Newbury, but was in New England before Newbury was established, and was likely first at Ipswich. By 1648 he was living in Dover (NH), and was on a list of freemen there dated 5 April 1653. James was frequently in court being sued for debt, with several instances from 1646 to 1672. About 1661 James made a trip to England, and was in London that year, but returned soon to New England. On 15 Dec 1685 "James Rawlings of Dover...yeoman" deeded 43 acres in Dover to his son Samuel, and on the following day drafted his will, naming wife Hannah, sons Benjamin, Icabod, and Joseph, and dividing a residue among all of his children. The will wasn't proved until 25 July 1691, but James was already dead by 13 Aug 1687 when called deceased in the apprenticeship of his son Benjamin. Children of James and (presumably) Hannah:


 * Rebecca, b. say 1642, m. c. 1662 Isaac STOKES


 * Ichabod (eldest son), b. say 1645, m. c. 1674 Mary TIBBETTS


 * Joseph, b. say 1647, living 1685 (father's will)


 * Elizabeth, b. say 1649, m. c. 1669 Obadiah MORSE


 * Samuel, b. say 1651, m. c. 1675 Rebecca, apparently PICKERING, daughter of John Pickering.


 * (poss.) Sarah, b. say 1657, m. c. 1677 Philip CHESLEY.


 * Benjamin, b. c. 1662 (aged 23 in 1685), probably died by 1690.

(8g) Ichabod Rawlins
GDMNH:595; NEHGR 98(1944):62-3

Ichabod, the son of James and Hannah Rawlins, was born say 1645, killed by Indians 8 July 1707, and m. say 1677 Mary TIBBETTS, b. Dover Neck 15 April 1658, the daughter of Jeremiah Tibbetts and Mary Canney. The NEHGR article says Mary died before 1688, but the GDMNH says she survived him and m. (2) Thomas Ash. The scant number of children appears to support the first claim. Ichabod was called a cousin and kinsman by Capt. Barefoot. Children, uncertain; only Jeremiah is given in the NEHGR article, but GDMNH gives the three and possibly fourth; however, the dates are not working out, and it is the birth date of Mary, above, that is gumming up the works:


 * poss. Elizabeth, b. c. 1678, m. c. 1698 John EDGERLY


 * Jeremiah, b. c. 1680, d. c. 1768, m. Elizabeth HAM, b. 29 Jan 1681, daughter of John Ham and Mary Heard of Dover. They lived in Somersworth (NH).  His will was dated 7 Dec 1752 and proved 29 June 1768.  They had six children.


 * Ichabod, b. say 1682, killed by Indians 22 May 1707, m. 25 Dec 1704 Mary PERKINS


 * James, b. say 1684, d. by 16 Oct 1700 "when his mother renounced adm. in favor of Samuel Keais." (GDMNH) He was a Portsmouth (NH) sailor, and died without issue.

(10g) Henry Tibbetts
GM:7:38-40

Henry Tibbetts was born about 1596, d. 1676, and m. c. 1630 Elizabeth ________, b. c. 1596, living 1677 when taxed. On 13 July 1635, "shoemaker Henry Tybbot", aged 39, "Elizabeth Tibott", aged 39, "Jeremy Tybbott", aged 4, "Samuell Tybbot", aged 2, and "Remembrance Tybbott", aged 28, were enrolled at London as passengers for New England on the James. Where the family first settled is not known, but Henry was in Dover (NH) by 1642. He held some minor offices such as constable and sealer of leather, and served on juries a few times. Henry was assumed still living on 14 Feb 1675/6 when he was assessed at Dover, but dead by 27 Jun 1676 when his will was probated. Children:

(10g) Thomas Canney
GDMNH:127

Thomas Canney, b. say 1605, living in 1681, was married and had children, but details are lacking. He was a constable, presumably in Dover (NH) in 1648, and in 1652 he administered the estate of Henry Plympton. In 1671 he was living in York, but later returned to Dover. Known children:


 * Daughter, b. say 1633, m. Matthew AUSTIN

(9g) Humphrey Griffin
Hoyt:187-8,753,967; Annis Spear:58-61

Humphrey Griffin was born about 1605 in England (aged 53 in 1658), d. Ipswich, MA 1661, and m. c. 1637 Elizabeth _______, b. say 1615, d. Haverhill, Mass. 18 Sep 1670. Elizabeth was the daughter of an earlier Elizabeth whose second husband was Robert Andrews, but her first husband's name has not been learned; he was the father of Humphrey's wife. Humphrey was a butcher, and settled in Ipswich, Mass. by 1639, and remained there. Griffin was regularly in the courts, either suing for debt, or more often being sued. In 1655 he was given permission by the town to erect a slaughterhouse. In 1647 he was in court for reviling his mother-in-law, Elizabeth Andrews, and she did the same. When he fell off his horse, cursing, a witness testified in 1656 that "his breath [was] scenting much of strong liquors." His will was probated in Ipswich 19 Nov 1661 with inventory on 25 March 1662. The widow Elizabeth m. (2) Haverhill 10 Feb 1662/3 Hugh Sherratt of Haverhill who died in 1678. Elizabeth's will was dated 30 July 1670 and proved nine weeks later on 11 October. Humphrey and Elizabeth had three sons mentioned (only John by name) in the will of Robert Andrews, dated 1 March 1643/4, and this helps set the approximate birth dates:


 * Elizabeth, b. c. 1638, d. Ipswich Dec 1677, m. Ipswich 3 March 1659/60 Edward DEARE. They had four children born in Ipswich 1662 to 1669.  These four children were mentioned, but not named, in the 1670 will of Elizabeth's mother.


 * John, b. c. 1640, m. 17 Sep 1663 Lydia SHATSWELL


 * Nathaniel, b. c. 1641, m. Andover, Mass. 26 Aug 1671 Elizabeth RING, b. c. 1650, the daughter of Robert and Elizabeth Ring of Salisbury, Mass. The family was in Salisbury as early as 1673.  They had six children, born 1672 to 1689, the first born in Andover, and the last four births recorded in Salisbury.


 * Samuel, b. c. 1643, d. c. 1690, m. c. 1673 Lydia YOUNGLOVE, b. c. 1643, d. Gloucester, Mass. 1 Nov 1702, the daughter of Samuel Younglove of Ipswich, butcher. Lydia was single and aged about 30 in June 1673, but married by 27 June 1674.  Lydia m. (2) 23 Oct 1691 Henry Witham of Annisquam.  Two children have been identified:  daughter Elizabeth was b. Ipswich 1680, d. there 1684, and son Samuel married in Gloucester Elizabeth York.


 * Lydia, b. say 1645, named Lydia Griffin in her mother's 1670 will.

(8g) John Griffin
Hoyt:188,753,967-8; Annis Spear:59-62

John, the son of Humphrey and Elizabeth Griffin, was born c. 1640, d. Bradford, Mass. 27 March 1688, and m. Haverhill, Mass. 17 Sep 1663 Lydia SHATSWELL, b. 1646, d. Bradford 21 (or 28) Dec 1729 in her 84th year (gravestone), the daughter of Theophilus Shatswell and Susanna Bosworth. John was deputy constable of Haverhill in 1664, deputy marshall of the county (then Norfolk?) in 1666, and kept the ferry across the Merrimac River in 1669. He moved to Bradford about 1670 when he was on a committee of that town to order, build, and furnish a meeting house. He was a deputy marshall and a Bradford selectman in 1680. On 7 April 1709, widow Lydia Griffin and her children sold to Stephen Barker for 105 pounds, 178 acres given to the widow Griffin by her father Theophilus Shatswell on the north side of the Merrimac River in Haverhill. Her children named in the instrument were John, Ebenezer, Samuel, and Nathaniel Griffin, Daniel Morrison on behalf of his former wife Hannah Griffin; Lydia wife of William Knowlton; Elizabeth wife of Thomas Staples; Susanna wife of Christopher Bartlett, jr.; and Abigail Griffin. Lydia has an extant gravestone in the Ancient Burying Ground, Bradford, Mass. Children, first two born in Haverhill and remainder in Bradford:


 * Lydia, b. 21 June 1664, living in 1709, m. (1) Bradford 15 (or 21) March 1684 Martin FORDE, a Frenchman who served his apprenticeship to Mr. Walker and was received by the Bradford Church in 1682/3; m. (2) by 1709 William Knowlton. Lydia and Martin had five children born at Bradford from 1686 to 1692.

 * Elizabeth, b. 14 Oct 1667, living in 1709, m. Haverhill 21 April 1694 Thomas STAPLES. Two children of theirs were baptized at Haverhill in 1697 and 1702.


 * John (twin), b. 13 June 1671, m. (1) Mary _______, b. c. 1673, d. Bradford 16 March 1728 in her 55th year; m. (2) Bradford 11 Aug 1730 Mary (CAPEN) Baker, widow of Thomas Baker of Topsfield. A John Griffin d. Amesbury 28 June 1739.  John had eleven children with first wife, born Bradford from 1695 to 1717, and one with second wife b. Bradford in 1731.


 * Hannah (twin), b. 13 June 1671, d. Newbury 9 Oct 1700, m. 1690 Daniel MORRISON. They had five children b. Newbury 1691 to 1699.


 * Ebenezer, b. 26 Oct 1673, living in 1709.


 * Susanna, b. 1 Sep 1675, d. Haverhill "1713-17", m. 9 Sep 1703 Christopher BARTLETT.

 * Nathaniel, b. 1680, living in 1760?, m. Bradford 6 Jan 1709 Hannah BARKER.


 * Abigail, b. 1684, m. Bradford 10 July 1710 Daniel WAY.

(7g) Theophilus Griffin
Theophilus, the son of John Griffin and Lydia Shatswell, was b. Haverhill, Mass. 2 Feb 1665/6, d. there 17 March 1688/9, and married c. 1688 Mary COLBY, b. Salisbury, Mass. 1669, the daughter of John Colby and Frances Hoyt. Following his death, Mary m. Amesbury 3 Sep 1696 Thomas CHALLIS, b. Amesbury 22 June 1673, [is he the one who d. Amesbury 12 March 1752, or was that his son?] son of Lt Philip Challis and Mary Sargent. The only known child of Theophilus and Mary was born after Theophilus died:


 * Theophilus, Jr., b. Amesbury Oct 1689, m. Hannah FOWLER (see below).

children of Mary with Thomas Challis, all b. Amesbury, Mass:


 * Philip Challis, b.16 Nov 1697, m. Amesbury 2 Dec 1725 Dorothy WEED, b. Amesbury 29 Nov 1694, living in 1730, daughter of Ephraim Weed and Elizabeth Colby.


 * Anne, b. 11 Aug 1700, d. S. Hampton, NH 25 July 1742, m. Amesbury 25 Jan 1721/2 Capt Jonathan CURRIER, b. Amesbury 7 Feb 1698/9, d. 30 Oct 1762, son of Capt Richard Currier and Dorothy Barnard. They had nine children born 1724 to 1740.


 * Judith, b. 22 Aug 1704


 * Mary, b. 20 Jan 1707/8, m. Amesbury 18 Feb 1735/6 Aaron ROWELL, b. Amesbury 29 Nov 1701, the son of Jacob Rowell and Hannah Barnard. Aaron had married as his first wife in Amesbury on 19 Jan 1726/7 Ruth Purington, b. Salisbury 14 April 1708.


 * Thomas, b. 18 Dec 1709, d. Amesbury 12 March 1752 (unless this is his father's d. date), m. Amesbury 22 Sep 1727 Sarah WEED, b. Amesbury 3 Sep 1700, daughter of George and Margerie Weed. The birth year for Thomas found in the vital record is likely in error, and I would think 1701 would be much more suitable with both his marriage date, and the sequencing of his siblings.

(6g) Theophilus Griffin, Jr.
Hoyt:968-9

Theophilus Griffin, b. Amesbury, MA Oct 1689, was the only known child of Theophilus Griffin and Mary Colby of Amesbury, and was born after his father died. He married in Amesbury 18 Dec 1710 Hannah FOWLER, b. c. 1690, d. Amesbury, 16 Mar 1759 per website, but this is in neither Amesbury nor Salisbury vital record, so cannot confirm. I find several web sources that say Hannah was the daughter of Thomas Fowler and Sarah Barrett. If so, she is likely the only child of this marriage, because Sarah (Barrett) Fowler was remarried to William Hall by 1691, suggesting that Thomas had died. Thomas is likely the son of Thomas and Hannah Fowler, born Salisbury 16:1m:1665 (16 March 1665)

Theophilus Griffin was living in Kingston, NH in 1722, when he sold his property in Amesbury. He was a member of the church in Kingston in 1725. In 1727 he and Isaac Griffin, his brother[NO! he had no brother!], were residents of Kingston, and in 1738 both of them signed a petition for a new parish in the east part of the town. He served in Capt. William Moulton's company of scouts in the war of 1745. He and his wife went to Deerfield to live with their son and died there; buried at Nottingham. Children, first four born in Amesbury:


 * Theophilus, born June 17, 1711. As a youngster he moved to Kingston, NH with his parents, and later removed to Deerfield, N. H. with his brother Eliphalet and had the eastern half of the estate they bought together.  He was of Kingston when he married in Amesbury 13 Feb 1745 Mary KIMBALL, but later went to Deerfield.  Two of their sons, Theophilus and John, are buried in the Edmunds-Griffin Cemetery in Northwood, NH, which is adjacent to Deerfield.


 * John, b. 30 May 1713, nothing more known


 * Lydia, b. 21 Oct 1715, d. Salisbury, MA 20 July 1768, and was called of Kingston in her marriage intention in Salisbury, MA on 16 Jan 1735/6 to David Osgood. He was born in Salisbury 24 Jan 1711, d. there 9 Jan 1782, the son of Nathaniel Osgood and Hannah Johnson.  David and Lydia are buried in the Salisbury Plains Burial Ground; David has a marker, but it is uncertain if Lydia's is still extant.


 * Mary, b. 23 Oct 1717, nothing more known


 * Eliphalet, b. Kingston, NH 24 May 1720, m. Salisbury, MA 21 May 1745 Anne EATON, b. c. 1724.  They had ten children born 1746 to 1762.  Eliphalet may have married secondly ______ Eastman.  He appears on the 1790 census in Deerfield, NH with one female, and no one else, unless this is his son of the same name.  His son Nathan (1750-1819) appears on the 1790, 1800, and 1810 censuses of Deerfield, and was married in Epsom, NH on 9 Nov 1769 to Phebe Cass, the daughter of John and Anne Cass.  Their son, Thomas, may be buried in the Griffin Cemetery in Deerfield.


 * Joseph, bp Kingston 28 June 1728, m. Martha Hillyard (see below).


 * Benjamin, bp Kingston 8 Nov 1730, may be the one of his name on the 1790 and 1800 censuses for Deerfield, NH, but this also might be the son of his brother Joseph.

(5g) Joseph Griffin
Joseph Griffin, the son of Theophilus Griffin, was baptized in Kingston, NH on 28 June 1738. He was married in East Kingston in March 1756 to Martha HILLYARD. Joseph appears on the 1790 census in Deerfield, NH (1m over 16, 1m under 16, and 4 females). Known children, all born or baptized in Kingston, NH:


 * Benjamin, baptized 25 June 1758; likely the one of his name on the 1790 census in Deerfield, NH, living alone


 * Jonathan, b/bp 13 Jan 1762


 * Thomas, b/bp 11 June 1764


 * Theophilus, b/bp 22 March 1766

(10g) Elizabeth Andrews
Essex Antiquarian; GM:1:52-56; NEHGR 147(1993):20-21

Elizabeth _______, b. say 1594, d. Ipswich, Mass. 29 Mary 1671, likely m. (1) say 1614, a man whose name has not been learned, and m. (2) say 1616 Robert ANDREWS, b. say 1593, d. March 1643/4. In his will, dated 1 March 1643[/4], and proved 26:1:1644 (26 March 1644), Robert Andrews left a legacy to John Griffin, son of Humphrey Griffin, and also mentioned Humphrey Griffin's two other sons, but not by name. In the Great Migration account, Anderson goes into great length about the reasoning that the wife of Robert Andrews had an earlier husband, with whom she had daughter Elizabeth, who married Humphrey Griffin. This conclusion had been drawn earlier by genealogist Walter Goodwin Davis. Robert Andrews was certainly in New England by 1634 based on the fact that he was made freeman on 6 May 1635. He was a resident of Ipswich during his short life in the Massachusetts colony. He was an innkeeper, and licensed to keep an ordinary in 1635 and again in 1640. He was an educated man, and signed his will, and was also concerned about the education of his son Thomas. On 30 March 1647, Elizabeth, widow of Robert Andrews, was admonished by the court for cursing and reviling her son-in-law, Humphrey Griffin. Likewise, Griffin was presented "for reviling his wife's mother". Elizabeth Andrews and her husband Robert Andrews are ancestors of two U.S. presidents: Rutherford B. Hayes through their daughter Abigail, and William Howard Taft through their son John.

Child of Elizabeth with her first husband, surname unknown:


 * Elizabeth, b. say 1615, m. c. 1636 (had three sons [and presumably a daughter] by March 1644) Humphrey GRIFFIN (see above).

Children of Elizabeth with Robert Andrews:


 * Alice, b. say 1617, m. c. 1637 (cb 1638) William FRANKLIN


 * Abigail, b. say 1622, d. 24 June 1655, m. c. 1642 (had a child by March 1644) Daniel HOVEY, bapt. Waltham Abbey, Essex 9 Aug 1618, d. Ipswich 24 April 1692. They were ancestors of Rutherford B. Hayes, the 19th U.S. President.


 * John, b. c. 1628 "eldest son", d. Ipswich 13:3:1662 (13 May 1662); m. Sarah HOLYOKE, bapt. Tanworth, Warwickshire 18 Sep 1623, d. Ipswich 29 April 1666, the daughter of Edward Holyoke and Prudence Stockton of Lynn, Mass. They were ancestors of William Howard Taft, the 27th U.S. President.


 * Thomas, b. say 1630, d. Ipswich 10 July 1683, unmarried. Thomas was a school-master in Ipswich.  His inventory was "proved" 16 Sep 1683, amounting to 356 pounds and change.

Following his death, Joanna m. c. 1650 John GREEN of Charlestown, but her death record at Ipswich calls her "Joanah Shatswell, widow".  John was in New England by 1633, and on 3 Sep 1633 was fined by the General Court for being "distempered in drink." This was his only brush with inappropriate behavior in the record.  He received a house lot in Ipswich in 1635.  John's will was dated 11 Feb 1646/7 (per Anderson; 2 Feb per Davis) and proved seven weeks later on 30 March 1647, naming wife "Johan", son Richard, brother Theophilus, and sisters Curwin and Webster, all in New England.  John had one known child with his first wife:  Richard, b. c. 1627, m. say 1648 Rebecca Tuttle, the daughter of Richard Tuttle and Anne Taylor.

Southold, Long Island in last third of 1658 (after 31 Aug, date of will) son of John Curwen of Sibbertoft. Margaret and Mathias had three known children, b. say 1633 to say 1640.  Mathias was in New England by 1634 when in November of that year he was granted land in Ipswich.  He was not on the 1641 list of Ipswich commoners, but wasn't of record in Southold until 1655, in a land inventory.  His will was dated 31 Aug 1658 and proved on an unknown date.  His inventory was undated.  Though he didn't give a surname to his daughter Martha in his will, he likely died before she married in November 1658.

 * Mary, b. c. 1606, d. Newbury, Mass. 28 April 1694, m. (1) c. 1630 John WEBSTER, b. c. 1606, d. 1646; m. (2) Newbury 29 Oct 1647 as his second wife, John EMERY, bapt. Romsey, Hampshire 29 March 1599, d. Newbury 3 Nov 1683, the son of John Emery. John Webster was in New England by 1634, and given a grant of land in Ipswich on 5 Jan 1634/5.  He was admitted as a freeman on 4 March 1634/5.  On 29 Sep 1646 the inventory of John Webster's lands and goods was sworn to by his widow, Mary Webster, who was appointed administratrix.  John Emery arrived in New England in 1635 aboard the James, and was a carpenter and innkeeper in Newbury.  Emery had four children with his first wife, Alice Grantham.  Mary had eight children with Webster born from c. 1631 to c. 1646, and two more with Emery, born in Newbury 1648 and 1652.  See sandbox d2.

Theophilus was in New England by 1639 when he first appears on the Ipswich records. In 1642 he was one of the soldiers sent by the town to disarm the Indian chief Passaconoway. By 1650 he had moved to Haverhill, though he didn't sell his dwelling house in Ipswich until 1653. His will was dated 20 June 1663 and probated at Hampton (NH) 13 Oct 1663, with legacies to eldest daughter Mary, daughter Lydia, to Hanill Bosworth. Executors were wife Susanna and daughter Hannah. Also named were "Brother Wilyam Sargent" and "Kinsman Lefttenent Philip Challis". Inventory on 3 Sep 1663 included a lot of land; total of 759 pounds. Susanna died before her administrative duties were completed, and administration of her estate went to Haniel Bosworth and John Griffin. Children:

William Deale was a very disagreeable person who spent an hour in the pillory at one time.  His will was dated 14 Feb 1664, leaving all estate to wife Mary and their two children.  Mary refused to have anything to do with the administration of the estate, and this task was then granted to Edward Clarke on 10 Oct 1665.
