REV. JAMES ASHTON AND OTHER PROMINENT RHODE
ISLAND BAPTISTS AMONG THE FIRST SETTLERS

OF MONMOUTH COUNTY, NEW JERSEY.

liv Margarita Lansing Hawley.

Rev. James Ashton was the first regular Baptist minister at Middletown, Monmouth County, N. J. In 1665 240 acres were granted to James Ashton and wife there ; in 1667 his name was among the original purchasers, and in 1670 he received a warrant for 347 acres of land there. In 1698 he executed a deed to his son James for 480 acres at Crosswicks. He came to Middletown from Providence in 1665. and was a man of importance in both towns where he lived, as his name is frequently mentioned in the records as holding positions of trust both in the government of the town and as its representative at the State Assemblies. He was Commissioner from Providence to the Rhode Island General Court in 1652, 1658, 1659, 1663, and deputy 1665. He was deputy from Middletown to the first Legislature of New Jersey convened at Portland Point December 12, 1667; deputy also in 1672. He was magistrate August 26, 1673, and deputy to the General Assembly held at Elizabethtown January 26, 1675. Rev. James Ashton married Deliverance, daughter of John Throckmorton, of Providence, who was also one of the original purchasers of land in Monmouth County, named in settlement 1667. He came to America in the ship Lion with Roger Williams. They sailed from Bristol, England, December i, 1630, and landed at Nantasket Beach, near Boston, in February. He went to Salem and, October 8, 1638, he was one of the twelve original proprietors of the Providence Plantations, to whom Roger Williams deeded the land that he had bought of Canonicus and Miantonomi. April 22, 1639, he bought of Roger Williams his interest in Prudence Island. In that year he and his wife are alluded to in a letter from the Rev. Hugh Peters, of Salem, to the Church at Dorchester, as having had " the great censure passed upon them in this our Church." July 27, 1640, he and thirty-eight others signed an agreement for a form of government. July 6, 1643, he obtained a grant of land in New York of Governor Kieft for himself and thirty-five associates. It was situated at what is now called Throgg's Neck (an abbreviation of Throckmorton). His settlement was brief, for Mr. Winthrop records in September of this year that the Indians set upon the English who dwelt under the Dutch and killed " such of Mr. Throckmorton's and Mr. Cornhill's families as were at home." Some that escaped went back to Rhode Island. In 1647 ne was again in Providence, and was granted a house and land there. <

He was deputy to the Rhode Island General Court, 1664, 1665, 1666, 1667, 1668, 1670, 1671, 1672, 1673, 1675. He was one of the earliest of George Fox's converts. He died, 1687, at Middletown, N. J., where he had gone probably on a visit to his children. He early took up lands in New Jersey, but never permanently settled there, though his sons removed thence. The Throckmorton family derive their name 1 from Throckmerton, which is situated in the vale of Evesham, in Warwickshire, England. John Throckmorton was lord of the manor of Throckmerton about sixty years after the Norman Conquest. Eighth in descent from John Throckmorton, lord of Throckmerton (1130), was John Throckmorton, lord of Throgsmorton Neck, who left issue John Throckmorton.

The patentee of Throgsmorton Neck is now represented by the Throckmortons, of Middletown, N. J. John Throckmorton's daughter Patience married John Coggeshall, Jr., and died 1676. His daughter Deliverance Throckmorton married James Ashton. They had a son " James, who settled on land in Upper Freehold given him by his father, was unmarried and so remained until his death," according to old church book of U. F. Baptist Church, and daughter Deliverance Ashton, who married Jonathan Holmes. He was the grandson of the famous Rev. Obadiah Holmes, "the martyr of heavenly spirit." of Newport, R. I. Jonathan Holmes was born 1684 and died 1766. He married first Deliverance Ashton, and second Rebekah Throckmorton. By first wife he had : i. Jonathan, who never married, and died 1738 ; ii. Deliverance, who married Peter Bowne ; and by second wife : iii. Samuel Holmes, born 1720, married (1745) Mary Stout ; iv. Sarah Holmes, married (1739) John Throckmorton ; v. John Holmes, born July 27, 1730, died August 26, 1804, unmarried ; vi. Rebekah, married March 2, 1756, Gilbert Tice ; vii. Joseph, born January 15, 1722, died March 23, 1738. The will of Jonathan Holmes, Sr., was probated January 30, 1767. In it he mentions sons Samuel, John, daughter Deliverance, wife of Peter Bowne, and Sarah, wife of John Throckmorton, and granddaughter Rebecca Holmes Tice. Jonathan Holmes, Jr., died at Barbadoes on his way home from Ireland in 1738. His will mentions " Deliverance Bowne, of Freehold, my dearly beloved sister," to whom he leaves three hundred pounds, and he leaves four hundred pounds to the Baptist Society of Middletown.

Peter Bowne's will was probated September 27, 1773. In it ne mentions sons Joseph, Jonathan, two daughters, and Lydia. His son Jonathan Bowne married Hannah, daughter of John Pettinger.
