    Leonard1 Harriman (probably MatthewA, LeonardB, MatthewC), the New England immigrant, was born probably at Uldale, Cumberland, England in 1621 or 1622, based on a deposition made 28 November 1676 in which he gave his age as about 54 years; he was evidently of legal age in 1642-1643 when he owned property in Rowley, Massachusetts. He died at Rowley between 12 May and 5 June 1691, the dates his will was drawn, and his estate inventoried. … Leonard immigrated to New England probably with his brother John. He settled in Rowley, Massachusetts, founded primarily by Yorkshire families, perhaps as early as 1639-1640. He is said to have been a minor and perhaps a servant. Many Rowley men were clothiers and weavers and, since Leonard was a weaver, it is possible that he learned his trade while living as an apprentice with the family of another weaver.

    "78. Leonard1 Harriman was probably of the first company and then a minor. His name appears of record in Rowley before 1649. He bought, in 1667, of John Todd, the house lot laid out to John Spofford, on Bradford Street. His wife was Margaret; … He died 6 (?) May, 1691. His will, dated 12 May 1691, mentions himself as being infirm; son Matthew to have land in Haverhill; son Jonathan; daughters Hannah Boynton and Mary Harriman; and grandson Matthew, son of Matthew (Essex Probate, 304:385).
