14. Marvin Harrison3 Towles
Moses Towles: Obituary, Carthage Republican, 4 May 1910: "Marvin H Towles died at his residence in this city Saturday evening, April 30, 1910 at 9 pm, age 70 years, 2 months and 15 days.

"The subject of this sketch, Marvin H Towles was born in St. Mary's township, Hancock County, ILL. Feb 15, 1840.  His father, Moses Towles, and mother, Nancy Towles, were each born in Oldham County, KY and came to Illinois in an early day.  The father, Moses Towles, accumulated much of this world's goods and was a good and kind hearted man, loved and respected by all his neighbors and I have often heard the late Dr. Wm. Booz, his family physician, say "Moses Towles is one of God's noblemen."

"The son, Marvin H Towles, inherited many of the good traits of his father and mother, thus early in life he "remembered his Creator in the days of his youth" and was converted of sin and found pardon and believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, he united with the M.E. Church at Bentley, Ill Jan 24, 1876, and had served as stewart for a number of years and was superintendent of the Sunday School class for four or five years and did much to build up the church at that place.  About the year 1868 Mr Towles moved from St Mary's township to Harmony township and resided there until about four years ago when he moved to Carthage.

"Mr Towles was united in marriage in Harmony township Dec 20, 1860 to Elizabeth Ann Kurry and to this union were born ten children: John Thomas Towles, Carthage, Ill; Mrs. Amanda Ellen Rorhbough, Elcader, Neb; Silva Ann Towles, now deceased; Alice Belle Whaples, Keokuk, IA; William Towles, deceased; Wilda May McCord, Mayview; Arthur G Towles, Kansas City, MO; Walter Clarence Towles, deceased; Daisy Naomi Towles, now Mrs Roydon Tull of Carthage; and Homer Garfield Towles, Bowen, ILL.  The wife died April 25, 1885 at her home in Harmony township.  Elizabeth Ann Towles was loved by all and a kind and loving mother while in the middle of life and before her work was finished, she was called to rest, leaving the children as above stated.

"Mr Towles was again united in marriage Dec 29, 1887 to Miss Ella Sherman, of Carthage, who survives.

"No greater tribute could be paid to man than to say the writer of these lives has know Mr Towles for forty years as has been intimately associated with him, never have we heard one unkind word said of anyone by Mr Towles, always thinking of the happiness of others, he has spent his entire life doing good to his fellow man.  Mr Towles for the last seven or eight years has been an iinvalid yet he never complained of his lot, but like a true christian that he was, bore his troubles with patience.

"The funeral will occur this Wednesday afternoon at the M.E. Church at 2 pm, Rev T.E Newland officiating.  Burial at Moss Ridge."

43. Hannah5 Crittenden
Hannah was in her fourth year when tidings came to her home of the first battle of the Revolution, and she retained to the last a distinct recollection of hearing it talked about and wondering what "battle" was.  When she was about 10, her parents moved to Manchester VT.  Her most vivid remembrance connected with the place was the joy and gladness that overflowed from all hearts, when tidings came that peace had been declared.

64. Richard Dietrich6 Loucks
5 Jul 2000 email message from Ken Loucks: When peace was declared in 1783, Richard Loucks and his family came to Canada and settled in the Township of Osnabruck.

This is the same Dederich Loucks that is recorded in Genealogy of the Loucks Family by Edwin Merton McBrier, New York: John S. Swift Co., Inc, 1940 and available from University Microfilm Service, University of Michigan.

Place of residence W1/2 Lot 31 Con 2, Twsp #3 Osnabruck Township, Stormont County - 100 acres.  Owned a store and tavern.  Was a private in 2nd Reg, Tyron Co. Militia.

From Arthur Moseley Loucks compilation (per Ken Loucks): He was twice fined 20-0-0 for refusing to join the rebels.  He was imprisoned in a donjon and nearly starved.  His wife strongly protested the savage treatment he received and they threatened to tar and feather her.  She escaped to the military barracks for protection.

Richard owned a store and inn at Stone Arabia.  All his property was seized and confiscated.  He came to Canada with his family in 1783.  He drew land in Township No. 3, Osnabruck (Stormont County) 1/2 of Lot 31, 2nd Concession - Lot 33, 3rd Concession (McNiff's Map 1786).

Thonges Laux: From Michael Loucks: Also known as Richard ... Richard for some reason did not join the King's standard but remained in Stone Arabia where he kept a store and tavern.  Patriots of the village tried to persuade him to enlist in the Continental Armies but when he refused, they assumed 'if you're not with us, you're against us' and had him fined twice the sum of twenty pounds and incarcerated in a dungeon.  His wife protested sharply at such treatment.  The patriots became exasperated and she was forced to take refuge behind British lines.

Richard's property, along with that of his brother's, was seized and confiscated by the State of New York and he and his brothers banished ... Richard, Peter and Joseph settled in Canada after the war, together with six other Loucks from other branches of the family.  In 1784 Richard brought his wife and six children to Osnabruck Township in the County of Stormont, where they settled on Lot 31, 2nd Concession.  McNiff's Map 1786 shows the lot (Loucks Genealogy of Arthur Moseley Loucks).

Richard took up his vocation of inn-keeping. Various accounts by travellers were flattering but uncomplimentary about his tavern. The earliest records we have of the Courts of the Quarter Sessions for the District of Lunenberg show that they were held at Loucks' Inn in the late 1780's (Source: St. Lawrence Development Commission).

In Committee Tyron County June 19th 1776: The following persons refusing to sign the Association ordered by this Committee viz.--- Donald Cameron, Barnabas Cain, Jacob Merckell, Henry Merckell Jr., Dederick Loucks, Godfrey Syphert, Hendrick Dillenbach, Christian Dillenbach Jr., and John Dochsteder.

84. John6 Mears
He is buried in the Village Cemetery at East Poultney.  The following verse is on his tombstone: "We mount the stage of life, prove actors to the scene, Soon close the short account of three score years and ten." Occupation: shoemaker.

He was present at the seige of Fort Oswego, in the French and Indian War, and in 1756 was captured by the French and Indians under Montcalm.  Along with other prisoners, he was put on a French vessel which sailed for France.  It was captured by an English vessel and the "American" prisoners were taken to England.  John, probably, in common with all the prisoners, was given a "Begging paper" authorising him to solicit charitable assistance in obtaining means with which to return home.  One lady gave him an English pound "because he was so handsome".  When he had gotten together money enough in this way, he came back to his place of residence to find a tombstone erected to his memory, and himself regarded as one arisen from the dead.

He saw service again in the Revolutionary War.  He was engaged as a sergeant in Capt. Joseph Boynton's company, Col. Nathaniel Wade's regiment.  He was on muster rolls at North Kingston and East Greenwich, and mustered out in Rhode Island, 1 Jan 1779.

As can be seen from the births of their children, John and Lucy moved often, from East Windsor CT by 1765 to Sharon CT, by 1769 to Goshen CT, by 1774 to Litchfield CT, and by 1776 to Egremont, Berkshire Co. MA.  After the Rev War, they moved once more, to Poultney VT, where they were among the early settlers.

Nathaniel Wade's regt.; engaged June 26, 1778; service to Jan. 1, 1779, 6 mos. 11 days, at Rhode Island, including travel (100 miles) home; also, same co. and regt.; muster roll dated North Kingston, Nov. 6, 1778; also, same co. and regt.; muster rolls dated East Greenwich, Sept. 17, Sept. 28, Nov. 12, and Dec. 29, 1778; term to expire Jan. 1, 1779.

86. Timothy6 Crittenden
It is said that Timothy's father followed the sea and that he himself went on one or two voyages to the banks of Newfoundland, and Bay of Cheleurs, fishing for cod.  His father, being adverse to a seafaring life for his son, bought land on the borders of Lake Champlain in Vermont, known as the Onion River Flats, in the town of Colchester, one of the most desirable locations as to fertility and beauty of location for farming purposes in a wide region of country.  But fever and ague, prevalent in the early settlement, led him to give up this place, and he bought land in Poultney, another desirable location where two roads meet.  Here Timothy built a gambrel roofed house.  It was located in a sugar orchard; many of the trees were still standing in 1923.  In 1883 it became the grounds of the Troy Conference Academy, a Methodist Seminary.  Here at first he worked at his trade of blacksmithing.  Afterwards, he kept a tavern and entertained travelers.

He was a member of the Congregational Church of Poultney, but after a time fell away from the faith from reading Universalist books and refuting the doctrine.  He was excommunicated from the church.  His wife (Lucy) remained firm in the religious faith in spite of his errors.

He saw service in the Revolutionary War.  He was on the expedition to Montreal which got no further than St. Johns.  It was during the winter and he, being quartermaster, was sent ahead on skates to look up a camping ground and prepare accommodations for the troops.

He was active in the development of the town of Poultney, was in the VT state legislature in 1802 and 1803 and was postmaster for several years.  In 1810 he moved to Covington, Wyoming Co. NY where he lived for about 18 years.  From there he moved to Saline MI.

A story still related by his descendents is as follows: "When Cornelius was placed in prison with other prisoners, they were first placed in an old barn where they nearly starved to death.  After several meal-less days they managed to coax a dog into the barn.  They killed it and ate it raw.  Cornelius used to say 't'was the best meal they ever had."

He lived for a number of years at or near Cobbleskill, New York. His children received the United States Pension in 1844.

114. Moses6 Tucker
Tucker p. 69-80: An overwhelming amount of circumstantial evidence exists to place Moses as son of Henry Tucker ... First, he lived in close proximity to members of that family in two counties of two states.  Second, the names of his children and grandchildren repeated names of those earlier Tucker families.  Third, at a time when Baptists were persecuted in Culpeper County and were much in the minority, he was a member of that church, as were other descendants ... Fourth and most important, several of the children of Moses Tucker married persons who descended from the family of John Tucker of Westmoreland County ... And finally, no connection to any other Tucker line could be found.

Moses Tucker first appeared in 1769, at about age 20, as a creditor to the estate of John Smith Prather, Queen Anne's Parish, St. Barnabas Church, Leeland, Prince George's County, MD. ... Apparently Moses removed shortly thereafter to Bromfield Parish, Culpeper Co. VA.

Culpeper Co. Land: On 19 Aug 1776, Moses Tucker, who identified himself as "of Culpeper Co. VA," purchased ... 80 acres of land on the north side of Bloodsworth's Road in the line of the James Patent.  The purchase included a house and other improvements. ... On 28 Feb 1800, Moses Tucker bought, ... for 75 pounds sterling, 12 shillings, 42 acres known as the Holdway tract, adjoining lands of Henry Towles, ... who married Alphia Tucker, daughter of Moses Tucker.

Personal Property Taxes of Moses Tucker: From 1782 through 1791 Mostes Tucker paid tithes on only one white male over age 16 (obviously himself) and he paid for one slave from 1789 through 1791.  During that time, his horses and cattle ranged from three to four and back to one.  Later tax reports begin to give evidence of his sons and changes in prosperity.

Bethel Baptist Church: Moses Tucker was one of the 72 persons who first constituted that church. The minutes of the church mention Ragged Mountain Baptist Church Monthly Meeting met and held at Bro. Moses Tucker on 3 Mar 1804. Later meetings were also held at his house.

First Wife of Moses Tucker: The name of the first wife of Moses Tucker is not known. The only evidence of her existence is that she left children who were born before 1793. One family of Culpeper County carries many connection to Moses Tucker and his descendants, so he probably married into that line or the Smith family.

128. Johann Adam7 Laux
Thonges Laux: According to Elaine Restad: Adam Loucks purchased lot 42 of the Stone Arabia Patent from his father-in-law Johannes Snell on Jan 11, 1762.  (She does not know if any child inherited Dietrich Loucks' land in the Stone Arabia Patent - unless it was Henrick D. Loucks).  In his will, Adam Loucks willed his land to all of his children.  According to those who had read the will (it disappeared from the Montgomery County files sometime in the 1940's), all the children are named except for Peter, and a note that daughter Maria had died priot to 1790.  This land is probably where the Loucks Tavern stood.  The site of the first meeting of the Palantine District, Committee of Safety, August 27, 1774.  The site has a historical marker.

The first records of the Stone Arabia Reformed Church are the baptismal records of Adam and Catharina Lisa (Snell) Loucks' children.  Adam served as an elder and deacon in the Stone Arabis Reformed Church.  (This area was called "Stonrapie" meaning blackbird, and somehow through the years became "Stone Arabia").  The Church at Stone Arabia was in the beginning a union church: Reformed & Lutheran.  There was a disagreement amont the Calvinists and the Lutherans and the land was divided and two churches built - the Twin Churches of Stone Arabia.  Then twenty years later in 1768, the Lutheran Congregation asked Sir William Johnson to help settle the question of the divided land as one Calvinist Johannes Snell (the father of Catharina Lisa Loucks) had started an "insurrection", and was questioning the Lutheran Congregation's right ot the land.  A new deed dated Dec. 29, 1770, from the Reformed Congregation to the Lutheran Congregation was drawn up.  And NO, Johannes Snell was not on the Committee for the new deed.  The Churches of Stone Arabia were destroyed by Sir John Johnson and his Loyalists on Oct. 19, 1780.

Towles ... lived north of Jamaica in Middlesex county until 1737. ... In 1737 Towles moved to a plantation on the east side of Robinson river, at the foot of Thoroughfare mountain, then in Orange, afterwards in Culpeper, now in Madison.

Towles' will, of record at Culpeper, made January 15, proved December 15 1757, ... gave certain land to his son Joseph and to Isaac Medley, personal property to sons John and Joseph, wife Jane and the two minor children, Mary and Henry, the residue of the estate to be "divided amongst all my children, young and old".  The will shows that Towles was growing cotton in the Piedmont and importing goods from Liverpool.

336. Samuel8 Mears

Dawes-Gates 1:432-435: Samuel had grown to manhood at the homestead originally owned by his grandfather, Robert Mears, and he inherited the south half of that property.  In about 1708, Samuel and his family moved to Roxbury Gate where they lived in the George Tavern.  The Tavern was located just north of the present Lenox Street and the stone marking the Boston-Roxbury line, on the west side of Washington, midway between the present Arnold and Ball Streets.

The land belonging to George Tavern in the days when Samuel lived there extended south to Arnold Street.  The tavern was beautifully located, part of an estate of twenty acres, extending to the Roxbury line on the south and across the marshes of Roxbury Flats to the great creek which formed its western boundary.  It had orchards, gardens, and a site commanding a view of Boston and its harbor on one side, and Cambridge Bay with the shore of the mainland on the other.  The Tavern was burned by the British in 1776, in retaliation for the destruction of Brown's House a few weeks before.

Samuel was the innkeeper for eighteen years or more.  Many references are found from 1711 to 1723 of the Boston selectmen and town officers meeting at his tavern.  The tavern is said to have enjoyed a high reputation for the quality of its entertainment.  It is said that in the yard of George Tavern bull baits were a common spectacle.

In 1726, Samuel moved to Dock Square in the business district of Boston where he ran the Sun Tavern for a short time until he died.  The Tavern stood on Corn Court, near Faneuil Hall, and about 30 ft. from the dock.  His son-in-law, Rev. Samuel Dexter, kept a diary in which he recorded Samuel's last illness:

"On ye 14th of Janry last past, ... Mr Mears was violently seiz'd & fell into a Fitt & his water ran from him as a dying man, but he quickly so far recover'd as to walk abt again, but from ys time always seemed dull, & like one in a maze; abt ye 15th of February he was seiz'd again with ye same Lythargical Trouble, with great strength, & he was brought very low - no Body expected his life, but yet he with wm Nothing is Impossible, so far recover'd him yt he was able to Walk abroad again & went into ye Country hoping to receive Benifit by ye change of Air -

"he seemed sometime more bright and Lively then at others, but frequently visited with ye Head ach & dull heavy fits - he had been at Malden something better than a week wn he was last seiz'd with yt Lythargical Trouble of which he dyed - he was to have come home on fryday May 5th, & his wife went for him, but he was so dull & stupyfyed yt he did not know her for near an hour, but then came too, so well yt he would have her go home & set ye house in Order & come to him yesterday, but was never able to speak anything to her afterwards.

"Sabbath day Evening we were sent for, & went Early on Monday Morning, and wn we came, found him quite Stupyfyed & Senseless; if we spake to him he wd give us no Answer, excepting 3 times he Answered Yes, wn Askt a Question - Praying with him seem'd to rouse him as much as anything; & thus he lay all Monday, sometimes as if he slept, & wn we Judg'd him Awake, not opening his Eyes nor taking any Notice, but yr was a difference in his Breathing. My Wife watch'd with him yt Night, & abt two hours before day, yr seem'd to be an Alteration in his Breath & Manner of Lying -

"we Judged he slept no more till he dyed, but was under ye Immediate Arrests of Death from yt time - he liv'd till wednesday, Eight of ye Clock - had a very hard death, & I hope, Exchange'd Earth for Heaven. He was in Genll a just, honest man, & very Charitable for one of his Capacity - he never came to ye Lds Table, but Lamented his Neglect very much wn he was visited ye second time, & had proceeded so far, yt if God had given Oppertunity he was to have been received into ye Ch ye Sabbath before he dyed - ye Instance shd be a warning to others not to delay.

Beebe Genealogy: Samuel lived in New London CT, Plum Island NY and Southold NY.  He made extensive land purchases from the Indians (including 4,000 acres from "Awonneco", who was presumably an Indian Chief) and was a large and prominment landholder.  He was one of three men who owned Plum Island, of which he owned a third.  Next to Governor Winthrop, he was the wealthiest man in New London CT.

He was called "Lord of the Isles", and lived "in plentiful farmer style, with sloops and boats for pleasure and traffic at his command".  A rock in the sea nearby was called "Beebe's Thorne", and he was known personally as "King Beebe".

In religion he was a follower of the Rogerene sect (being married into the Rogers family), was an opponent of infant baptism, and was in constant conflict with the church.

He was a sergeant in Capt. Oliver's company, formed in Nov-Dec 1675 during King Philip's War.  They traveled from Dedham Plain, where they assembled, down to Wickford, now in Rhode Island.  On Dec 18-20 they marched through the snow to the Narragansett Fort, fought a terrible battle, and then made the exhausting eighteen mile trip back through ever deepening snow, with the uninjured carrying the dead and severely wounded and supporting those with lesser hurts.  Most if not all who missed injury in battle were partly frozen before they reached camp.  No record is seen of injury to Samuel, however his early death may have resulted from the hardships of his military service.

The founding of this area involved a great deal of controversy.  The community was not a peaceable one and it required aggressive men to control it.  Obadiah and his brother William seem to have been ready equally with counsel, purse, fists or hatchets.

There are several versions of his birth in the literature.  One is that he was born in 1592 in London England.  The other is that he was born in 1590 at Whitbroune, Corsley, Weltshire England, the son of John and Eleanor De la Mere.  John was b.1560.  Robert is supposed to have lived at Mearscourt, County West Meath, IRE during the minority of his nephew.  After his nephew came of age and took over his deceased father's estate, Robert came to America.  He settled permanently in Boston where he received an allotment of land.

In Sep 1648, he purchased a property from James Penniman that was a house with spacious grounds where he made his home for the rest of his life.  The property lay on the west side of Court (now Tremont) Street, opposite the end of Hanover St. and measured 85 ft. on Tremont and 284 1/2 ft on the south side which adjoined the grounds of Gov.

The Braintree men, through their business abroad, had opportunites to look out upon a world that was wider than their own shire.  London was doubtless no strange city to Joseph Loomis.  There he must have gone both to sell and to buy.  As a wholesale cloth merchant he may have visited the continent, even Spain and Portugal, since the Braintree-Bocking cloth was largely sold in those countries.

In America, he was first of Dorchester MA.  About 1639 he removed to Windsor CT, possibly among the company led by Rev. Ephraim Huit.  His house at Windsor was located on high land at the junction of the Farmington and Connecticut rivers.  When these rivers overflowed, it was surrounded by water, whence came its name, "The Island."  The house is still standing.

A sizable portion of the White family moved from the Old World to New England in the Great Migration, and stayed near to one another in the new land.  Moreover, there clearly existed within the family, and with its in-laws, a sense of closeness, mutual support, and common interest.  For example, Robert White, wishing to assure sensible marriages for his children, Bridget, Anna and John, by his will conditioned receipt of their full inheritance upon approval of the intended spouse not only by his wife Bridget, but also by his "sonnes in law" Joseph Loomis and William Goodwin.

In the same vein, it is worth noting that the White children tried to stay together when they settled across the Atlantic: when Joseph Loomis and John Porter occupied adjacent home lots in Windsor in 1639, their wives, Mary (White) Loomis and her sister Anna (White) Porter, became next door neighbors.

1370. John10 Moore
He came as a Deacon of the Dorchester church, and went with Rev. John Warham to Windsor in 1635 or 1636.  He dealt largely in real estate, farmed, manufactured pike heads and about 1671 built a ferry.

1372. John10 Whitcomb
John Whitcomb was probably originally from the vicinity of Sherborn, England and Dorchester, Dorset, England.  Children of his were baptized between 1626 and 1634 in St. James's Parish, Taunton SOM ENG.  There are gaps in the records from 1620 to 1626, so he may have been in Taunton earlier than 1626.

He probably emigrated in 1634.  Frances' younger brother Henry was a sea captain sailing back and forth from England as well as to and from Barbados Island.  As sister and brother-in-law of the captain, it is reasonable to believe that they could have sailed as 'ships company' and hence the name would easily have been omitted from the ship's passenger list.

He was an early settler of Dorchester MA where he was a proprietor as early as 1636.  About 1640 he removed to Scituate, and was admitted freeman of Plymouth Colony 3 Jun 1652.  In 1654 he removed to Lancaster.

He owned a farm of one hundred eighty acres in Dorchester, on the Marshfield side, near the mouth of the North river.  John and his son John Jr. are listed among the founders of the town of Lancaster.  He was one of the largest land owners in Lancaster.  The present (1884) post-office and bank building are probably on the Whitcomb lands.  Both the father's and son John Jr.s house lots extended across the street eastward, meeting the other range of lots upon the neck.  The chief products of his farm in 1662 were corn, tobacco and flax.  At the settlement of his estate, the house lot which had been John Jr.'s was allotted to the youngest sons, Job and Josiah.  John Sr. was a man of education, as is shown by his fine penmanship.

1376. Abraham10 Crittenden
He and his wife Mary came from Cranbrook, Kent England as members of the first Guilford Company, landing in New Haven about the 10th of July 1639 and coming to Guilford in the autumn of the same year.  He was one of the first settlers of Guilford.  In addition to his home lot on Harbor Street, he owned "a parcel of upland and marsh in the valley on each side of West River," a "parcel of upland 20 acres abutting to the common woods," a "parcel of marsh land to the South 10 1/2 acres" and a "parcel of upland over against the mill" containing 19 acres.  In 1646 he was appointed "overseer of the mill bay dams or floodgates."

1378. Thomas10 Gregson
The name was pronounced as if spelled "Grixson".

Pope says he is the grandson of Henry Gregson of Duffield, and is perhaps the son of Henry's son Henry.

He was part of the company of Gov. Eaton and Rev. John Davenport that landed at Boston MA, 26 Jun 1637.  He took part with them in the settlement of New Haven, where, as Winthrop says, he was "probably the chief man in the Colony after Eaton."  He was its first treasurer, the first Commissioner of the United Colonies of New England, an Assistant to the Governor and an active merchant.  He lived on the east side of the harbor in New Haven.

In Jan 1646, he and others sailed for London and nothing was ever afterwards heard of them.  The loss of the ship in which he sailed forms the subject of Longfellow's "Phantom Ship."

1380. Josiah10 Hull
After following his parents from Dorchester to Windsor in 1636, he removed to Killingworth in 1643/4 where he was chosen first Town Recorder and was later Lt. of the Train Band.  His lot in Killingworth was on the North side of Main Street, west of Indian River.

1382. William10 Kelsey
He was one of the original Braintree Company that came with the Reverend Thomas Hooker in 1632.  On their arrival the company "began to sit down" at Mt. Wollaston, a few miles south of Boston; but it being the policy of the Colony to keep the population as concentrated as possible, the Court ordered them to move to Cambridge, where they were known as the "Braintree Company" or "Hooker's Company."  His houselot in town was on the outskirts of town, at the junction of Marsh Lane, Creek Lane and Long Street, now known as Eliot Street, Brattle Square and Winthrop Street.  The house stood just six feet from the street, in accordance with the law, and the roof was of boards or slate, not thatch.

In June 1636, fifty families of Hooker's Company, including William Kelsey, moved to Connecticut, where they established Hartford and William was considered one of the "original proprietors".  He received 16 acres on the road from Centinel Hill to the North Meadow, at what is now the corners of Village, Pleasant and Windsor Streets, and reaching to within a half-mile of Main Street in the heart of the present city.  His neighbors included Mathew Marvin, Edward Stebbins, and James Olmstead.

In 1663, a colony of 16 families moved from Hartford to a new town now called Killingworth CT.  William and some of his children (including Abigail, the others were either married or had died) were among the group.  He was again one of the original proprietors.  On 11 May 1671 he was deputy from Killingworth to the General Court at Hartford which was held in Jeremy Adams' Tavern.

All of the information about William's wife/wives from the Kelsey genealogy (1928) is speculative and is not included here.  Perhaps there is later research that will clarify the issue.

1386. George10 Bartlett
He is said to be the brother of John Bartlett of Windsor.

He was at Guilford soon after the settlement of the plantation.  He seems to have been a man of education and consequence in the community, and was frequently a witness in the Courts.  His homelot of 4 1/2 acres was at the south-west corner of the Green.  Among other civic duties he was one of the first deacons of the Guilford Church.  He also served as town clerk.

In 1654, New Haven raised a company of 133 men, commanded by Capt. Seeley, to cooperate with an army of 800 from all of the United Colonies of New England.  George Bartlett was appointed to command the Guilford contingent of 17, with the rank of sergeant.

In 1649, he and John Hoadley were appointed by the town of Guilford to build a cart bridge over the East River.  A year previously, he had been one of three men appointed to build a fence to keep the young cattle from the "herd's walk."

1388. William10 Stevens
With his father and brother, he was a strong adherent of Dr. Rossiter, and in Oct 1662, all three joined with others of Guilford in seceding from New Haven Colony, and tendered themselves with their persons and estates to the Connecticut Colony, and were accepted and promised protection.  The bitter controversy that followed was the chief cause of both Thomas and William leaving Guilford.

In 1701 on a deed he "being by the providence of God burned on his right hand made this mark W."  His will dated 23 Feb 1704 is signed by a mark which roughly forms WS.

1392. Henry10 Adams
He was of a yeoman family living for generations at Barton St. David, as farmers and cattle raisers.  Between 1614 and 1622 he removed to the adjoining parish of Kingweston.  His emigration to New England was probably influenced by his wife's sister Ann Squire and her husband Aquila Chase who emigrated in 1632.

In 1640 he was granted 40 acres at Mount Wollaston (Braintree, in that part now Quincy) at 3s per acre.  His house lot in Medfield was on Bridge Street.  In his memory his descendant, President John Adams, erected a granite column in the churchyard at Braintree, on which are inscribed these words:

"In memory of Henry Adams who took his flight from the Dragon of persecution in Devonshire, England, and alighted with eight sons near Mount Wollaston.  One of the sons returned, and, after taking time to explore the country, four removed to Medfield and the neighboring towns; two to Chelmsford.  One only, Joseph, who lies here at his left hand, remained here, who was an original proprietor in the township of Braintree, 1639.

This stone and several others have been placed in this yard by a great-grandson from a veneration of the piety, humility, sympathy, prudence, patience, temperance, frugality, industry and perseverance of his ancestors, in hope of recommending an emulation of their virtues to their posterity."

1394. James10 Penniman
Rather than coming on the Lion, James may have come from Leyden to Boston in 1628.  He sold land in Boston to Robert Mears: the house and land between the site of the 1890 Court House and Sudbury Streets, overlooking Mill Cove.

Soon after 1635, James and Lydia may have moved to Mt. Wollaston (Quincy), where the minister was John Wheelwright who was later found guilty of sedition and contempt because of his religious views.  In Nov 1637 it was ordered that a number of the followers of Mr. Wheelwright (and Anne Hutchinson) were ordered to turn in all their guns, pistols, powder and shot, and were not to buy or borrow any more until the Court would allow them to.  James Penniman's name was among those disarmed.  This high-handed action left those disarmed without any protection to themselves or their families from the horrors of an Indian massacre.

In Mar 1637 he was given leave to move to that part of the marsh on the neck near to his "garding" which he had "wantonly sowen."  In 1639 he bought three acres from his brother-in-law Francis Eliot, and built a home there.  The land was on the Town Brook in the area of present Bigelow St. and Revere Road in Quincy.  The footway to his house, mentioned in 1641, is now generally Miller Stile Road, from the road to landing, now Elm St.  The Miller-Everett house now stands on the property.  Henry Adams was a near neighbor.

A note recorded in Braintree in 1641: "There is a footway to ly from the lane of Goodman Penniman where it is marked on the paills and two ladders appointed to be made for a style and from thence upon a straight line to the meeting house over the bridge."

In 1644 he was granted 200 acres at Braintree.

1402. John10 Wilson
They settled first in Salem MA where he purchased two acres of land and a dwelling house in 1652.  They sold it in July 1657, to retain possession until the 10th of October, probably to give them the benefit of the crops they had planted in the garden.  In 1661 he was granted 4 acres of meadowland in Woburn in the nether end of Settle Meadow, next Cedar Swamp.  His participation in town affairs was limited, possibly because of the remote location of his farm, in the southwesterly part of what was then North Woburn, now Bedford, adjacent to the Billerica line.

Further, the Wilsons were alienated from the majority of the inhabitants by their identification with the Baptist faith.  In June 1675, he and his wife were fined for frequently absenting themselves from public worship on the Lord's day.

1403. Hannah10 James
In Dec. 1677, George Polly, the wife of John Wilson, Senior, John Wilson, Junior, Timothy Brooks, Francis Wyman, Aaron Cleveland and Hopestill Foster are admonished and sentenced to pay costs of court for "frequent absenting themselves from the public worship of God on the Lord's days."

During her second marriage, she lived in Salem Village (now Danvers).  This town was the center of the witchcraft hysteria, and after Fuller's death, (one source says he was still living at the time), Hannah, a stranger, prudently decided to return to Woburn.  In 1697, her son-in-law, James Proctor was called to account for "entertaining" her without leave of the selectmen.  Subsequently, he, her sons James and Samuel and Aaron Cleveland gave a bond for £80, to free the town of any charge for her care.

1404. John10 Johnson

His home in Woburn was to the south of his father's, on the west side of the present Cambridge Street and south of the present Lexington Street.  He owned a sawmill in Woburn (probably on the site occupied in 1914 by the J.H. Gerlack Mill in Arlington MA).  The records of Middlesex County still bear evidence relating to houses and a bridge constructed by him.

In 1671 he paid a fine for being absent from public worship.  In his testimony he "confessed that he had formerly gone to ye Anabaptistical assembly but now he had left off".  In 1712, he, then under the care of a physician for lameness, and his wife Bethia were taken to the home of their son Obadiah in Canterbury CT where they passed the remainder of their days.

Beebe Genealogy: He was described as a yeoman and lived in St. Andrews Parish of Broughton NTH ENG.  In 1638 he inherited his father's home.  In 1649 his sons John and Samuel Beebe emigrated to the American colonies, and in the spring of 1650, he and other members of his family followed suit.

His will was written and signed on board ship on 18 May 1650. It is presumed that he died the same day.  His daughter Hannah and wife Rebecca are not mentioned in his will, and are presumed to have died before 1650.
