br. of Rev. Henry, sold the Matlock est. wh. had been in the fam. sev.
ages (as father Flynt, his gr. neph. writes), to come to N. E. 1636,
freem. Mar. 1638; was rep. 1637-40, and Assist. 1642 to his d. 8 Nov.
1653. He had brought £2,000, says his pastor, Rev. Peter Bulkley, in 3
Mass. Hist. Coll. I. 38; and Rev. Dr. Ripley, in his Dedic. sermon, p.
35, shows, that it was exp. chiefly for the benefit of the town. He
had other ch. perhaps one or more b. in Eng. besides Ephraim, b. 14
Jan. 1642; and John; both above ment.; but tho. his will, made 21 Dec.
1651, "intending a voyage to our native country of Eng." provides for
w. and childr. it does not name them, but commends the latter to care
of Rev. Peter Bulkley and Rev. Henry Flint, Capt. Simon Willard, and
uncle William Wood of Concord. THOMAS, Salem, d. 15 Apr. 1663, leav.
by will made two wks. bef. good est. to wid. Ann and ch. Thomas; Elizabeth b.
30 June 1650; George, 6 Mar. 1653; John, 3 Dec. 1655; and Joseph; the ch.
prob. all under age. The div. of his est. June 1680, betw. only Thomas and
Joseph, under order of Ct. leads us to infer, that both of the other s. d. bef.
mid. age. THOMAS, Salem, prob. s. of the preced. m. 22 May 1666,
Hannah Moulton, d. prob. of sec. Robert, had Abigail, b. 27 June 1668; and
George Apr. 1672; and his w. d. 20 Mar. 1674. He m. 15 Nov. foll. Mary

swamp fight, 19 Dec. 1675, when his capt. Gardner was k. but serv. afterwards as ensign
1689 in the Danvers co. perhaps was freem. 1690. Ano. THOMAS of Salem m. 12 Aug.
1678, Elizabeth Johnson, had Ruth, b. 11 May foll.; Timothy, 30 Sept. 1680; John, 21

Four of nine of this name gr. at Harv. up to 1834, were clerg. and three of

    FLOOD or FLOYD, EDMUND, Plymouth, came in the Ann, 1623, but was

Benjamin, 1 Feb. 1677; Abigail, 25 Sept. 1679; and John, 3 Aug. 1681.
JOHN, Lynn, may have rem. to Salisbury, where was one of this name,
aged 27 in 1679, or to Malden, where was John, freem. 1690, and d.
early in 1702. By w. Sarah he had Hugh; John, b. 1665; Joseph; Daniel,
28 Dec. 1675; Sarah; and Abigail. JOSEPH, Dorchester 1635, perhaps br.
of the preced. had Eleazer, bapt. 1638, was bailiff 1636, and rem. to

been drawn, no doubt, by the Carterets, from Guernsey, by w. Mary had

1689, leav. Robert, Abigail, John, Thomas, Mary, and George. Hinman,
211, says, his wid. Abigail m. Matthew Barry. Happy will he
be, wh. can discrim. this from the sec. foll. name in all instances.
