1639, and d. 26 Oct. 1643, by Eliot's rec. descr. as "an old Kentish
man." His d. Eliz. m. 4 Dec. 1639, Henry Archer; on the same day
her br. Thomas m. and Thankful m. John Pierpont. I suppose, aft.
the d. of f. the residue of the fam. rem. to sev. towns, but princip. to
Concord and Middletown. JOHN, Concord, Farmer says had s. Nathaniel,
wh. I think a mistake. He was, prob. s. of the preced. and
may have not rem. to Middletown, yet perhaps serv. in Philip's war,
when one John S. of Capt. Newberry's comp. was wound. near the end
of May, and cured last of Jan. foll. tho. this soldier may have been a
younger man, and I have some ground for presum. that John, s. of
Roxbury John, was d. bef. Sept. 1653, and perhaps never m. bec. his
brs. Thomas, Nathaniel, and Samuel then unit. with Hopestill Foster,
all legatees under the will of Rachael Bigg, of Dorchester, in a composition
as to their respect. shares in est. of Smallhope Bigg, and John Bigg,
their uncles in Co. Kent, old Eng. and it is almost certain, that the other
brs. of those three must have had equal int. beside that John had m. a d.
of Rachell Bigg, and was made excor. of her will. JOHN, Middletown,
s. of Thomas, of the same, m. 13 Nov. 1668, Mary Wetmore, had John,
b. 10 Oct. 1669, drown. at 2 yrs.; John, again, 3 Mar. 1672; Thomas,
10 Apr. 1674; Nathaniel, 22 Feb. 1676; Mary, June 1678; Hannah,
25 Aug. 1680; Sarah, 25 Mar. 1683; Samuel, 30 Apr. 1684; Thankful,
15 July 1686; and Experience, 30 Sept. 1688; of wh. Samuel,
Sarah, and Thankful d. young; and the f. d. 18 Oct. 1688. JOHN,
Middletown, s. of the Rev. Samuel, m. a. 1678, Esther, wid. of John
Wilcox, d. of William Cornwell, had Hope, b. 10 Sept. 1679; Samuel
1684, d. at 22 yrs. and Thankful, wh. d. young in 1700; and he d. 30
June 1732; and his wid. d. 2 May foll. ea. 82 yrs. old. He was, perhaps,
that John, of Capt. Newberry's comp. wound. in Philip's war.
NATHANIEL, Concord, s. of John the first, b. in Eng. by w. Eliz. had
John, b. 29 or 30 June 1657, both dates being in the rec. d. in few mos.
Hannah, wh. d. 14 May 1658, perhaps few hours old; and Thankful, 4
Jan. 1660; beside Samuel, nam. in the will of his uncle the Rev.
Samuel. His w. d. 8 June 1661, he was freem. 1690. NATHANIEL,
Middletown, s. of Thomas of the same, m. 4 Apr. 1677, Hannah Wet
more, had no ch. His w. d. 0ct. 1704, and he d. 16 Feb. foll. His est.
went in six equal pts. to brs. Thomas, Samuel, and the rep. of John,
sis. Mary, Thankful, and the heirs of Elizabeth RICHARD, call. by Farmer
of Mass. as early as 1630, I fear to count any thing but a misnomer.
SAMUEL, Middletown, s. of John the first, b. in Eng. tho. Dr. Field in
his valua. acco. of Middlesex Co. Conn. makes him native of Concord,
wh. error he was led into by Shattuck, but it wd. have been impossib.
had he recollect. the yr. of his gr. at Harv. 1645; and in his invalua.
