    "189. William1 Stickney and his wife, Elizabeth, were admitted to the First Church in Boston, 6 : 11 mo., 1638, and dismissed, 24 : 9 mo. 1639, 'to ye gathering of a Church at Rowley if the Lord so please' (Boston First Ch. R.).; freeman 7 : 8 mo. 1640. He had an acre and half house lot on Wethersfield Street, 1643. He was buried 25 Jan., 1664-5. His will, dated 21 Jan., 1664, mentions himself as of Rowley; wife, Elizabeth; sons Samuel, Amos, John, Andrew, Thomas; daughters Mary, Faith, and Mercy; wife, Elizabeth, executrix (Essex Probate). … A granite monument to his memory was erected in Rowley Cemetery in 1865 by some of his descendants."

    "William Stickney, the first settler, was the ancestor of nearly all who have since borne that name in America. It is inferred from records procured in England for the author, by Horatio G. Somerby, Esq., that he 'was the William, who is mentioned as baptized in St. Mary's Church, Frampton, Lincolnshire, England, September 6, 1592, and the son of William Stickney of Frampton. who was baptized December 30, 1558, and married, June 16, 1585, Margaret Peirson, and the grandson of Robert Stickney of Frampton, who made his will October 3, and was buried October 18, 1582."

    NOTE: The record of William Stickney's baptism and the identification of his parents and paternal grandfather were provided by the infamous Horatio Gates Somerby and must be considered suspect unless confirmed by independent research. It should also be noted that Frampton, Lincolnshire, the alleged place of his birth, is over seventy miles from Cottingham, East Riding, Yorkshire, where he is known to have married and where six of his children were baptized.
