402	Anderson (GMB) suggests the possibility that John and his family might have been passengers of the Mary & John, since they came in 1630 and were first of Dorchester. Many early settlers of Dorchester were from the West Country of England. John Greenaway and Mary Greenaway joined the Dorchester Church in 1636. John was "freeman" 18 Oct 1630.	GREENOWAY, John (I46016)
403	Anderson lists his migration as 1631, but suggests he was probably part of the last contingent of the Leiden congregation which came over 1629/30. His occupation was tanner and he built in 1640 the first tannery in Plymouth, Ma. He tanned wolf skins for the Pilgrims.	HURST, Deacon James (I42750)

405	Andrew Craig, the ancestor of the Craig family of Farmington, was of Scottish birth. He was one of the brave men who left their native country to find a home in the north of Ireland during the troublous period of its later history. In 1725, with his wife, Jenett Todd, and young family, he left Scotland, and after a brief residence of five years in Ireland, embarked for America, arriving in Boston Feb 28, 1730. Soon after he removed to Wrentham, Mass. John, son of Andrew, was born in Scotland, October, 1721, and came with his parents to this country. He married Mary Skinner and spent his life in Wrentham, where he died, Apr 27, 1803, and his wife, June 18, 1788. Among their children were Elias Craig, who settled in Augusta, and Enoch Craig, who was among the pioneers of Farmington.	CRAIG, Andrew (I40093)
406	ANDREW, Hingham 1635, s. of William, was call. feltmaker, by w. Tryphena had Mary, Abigail, and Andrew, all bapt. in Aug. 1646; John, 30 Jan. 1648; and with this s. I pause to expose many errors. To him is giv. s. Samuel, b. 16 Mar. 1678 by w. Mehitable Hobart. Sorry am I to obs. that in the Geneal. Reg. XIII 91, the statem. that "John, bapt. in Norton, 30 June 1648, m. Mehitable Hobart," labors under such incongru. It says that Andrew and Tryphena had seven childr. when the names of nine are kn. No s. Samuel had he, no Mehitable Hobart can be found for that John to m. and he could not be bapt. at Norton that day, for the town was not begun to be sett. till many yrs. aft. nor could he be bapt. anywhere else in N. E. on 30 June 1648, wh. was not Sunday, but Friday. Beside those four ch. we find Ephraim, bapt. Feb. 1650; Deborah, 20 June 1652; Joshua, 20 Aug. 1654; Caleb, 17 July 1657; and Hannah, 17 Oct. 1658; and he d. 1 May 1675. His wid. d. 2 June 1707, "a. 95 yrs. of age," says the town rec. All the ds. were m. Abigail m. perhaps, John Low, first, but certain. 27 Dec. 1665, Daniel Stodder, and Deborah m. 30 Dec. 1674, William Sprague; but whether the date of Mary, wh. m. William Orcutt, were earlier or later in m. than her sis. Abigail, is uncert.; and Hannah m. Thomas with a surname utterly illegib. in the orig. and plain. false in the copy of Prob. reg. All the s. and the hs. of the ds. gave, 27 July 1675, to their ms. acquit. of the est. of dec. for her life, wh. has signa. of each, but Orcutt's is by [ ] mark, and the h. of the youngest d. might as well have used a bear's claw to write his.

408	Ann Carleton died probably in co. Westmoreland where she was living with her second husband. Ann married Alan Chamber who was born ca. 1565 and died 5 Jan. 1615 in co. Westmoreland. Alan was a s/o Walter and Anne (Travers) Chamber of The Hawes, Helsington, co. Westmoreland, and was a minor at the time of his father's death. In 1581, at the age of 16, he was granted in wardship to Sir Thomas Boynton, third husband of Anne's step-grandmother. Alan inherited from his father, The Hawes in the parish of Halsington, Hallhead Hall in Strickland Ketle, six burgages in Kendal, and other property, all in co. Westmoreland. FROM INQUISITIONS POST MORTEM 5 April, 13 James I [1615]. Inquisition taken at Kirkbie Kendall in Co.

411	Anna Catharine Simbric was born Dec. 5, 1877. On November 5, 1893, she united with the Baptist church at Plainfield, since which time she has lived a devoted christian life, always with cheer and joy working for her master. On Feb. 22,1898, she was married to Charles L. Orcutt. Two children have gladdened their home, the youngest preceding her in death only a few weeks ago. Leila, aged three, is left to comfort a heart-broken, sorrowing husband, the grief-stricken hearts of a devoted father, mother three sisters and three brothers. Anna has always lived here and leaves hosts of friends who have loved her cheerful disposition, and since disease had fastened itself so firmly upon her she never forgot the welfare of her friends, and above all had that sweet, abiding trust in God that leaves us that blessed hope of a glorious immortality in that mansion which He has gone to prepare. After medical skill had done all possible and loving hands had administered the comforts of life she sweetly and calmly fell asleep in the arms of Jesus on July 20, 1906.

423	Antoine Comeau (anglicized as Anthony Coombs) was born about 1661 in Port Royal (then Nouvelle-France) Nova Scotia as known by his age 10 on the 1671 census of Port Royal.[1] He was the 5th son of Pierre Comeau and Rose Bayol (or Bayon) who married about 1650. [2] He is again at Port Royal living with his family in 1678 though his mother had died. His calculated birth years ranged between 1658 and 1661.[3] Anthony moved in 1684 from Port Royal to the part of Massachusetts which later became the state of Maine to work for Louis Allain (anglicized as Lewis Allen). When Lewis Allen abandoned his property in Wells to return to Port Royal in 1686 or 1687, he left Anthony Coombs on his land.[4] "At that time Anthony may still have been bound by his apprenticeship contract. However, that compact had undoubtedly expired by February 1688, since apprentices were normally barred from marrying during their period of servitude."[5]. Note: if this is true, then it raises the possibility that Coombs and Comeau, who was found in the 1686 Acadian census living with his father at age 24 are not the same[6]. See Similarities and Connections section for possible reasons for this. In 1686 at Port Royal, Antoine age 24 was living with his father Pierre COMMEAU, a widower at age 88, and his two brothers: Pierre age 25 and Jean age 21. They were living on 6 arpents of cultivated land with 4 cattle, 12 sheep and 4 hogs.[6] On September 5, 1688 Anthony was married to Dorcas Wooden by Mr. Martin (minister) in Wells, Maine.[7][8][9][10] [11] [12]She was born at Rowley, MA on Feb. 10, 1671, daughter of John Wooden[13][4][14] and Mary (Johnson) Wooden.[4][15][13] Anthony and Dorcas' 12 children included: 1 Mary, baptized at Beverly, MA on Nov. 3, 1689.[16] 2 Peter, baptized at Beverly, MA on Oct. 18, 1691.[17] 3 Tabitha, baptized at Wenham, MA in 1693,[18] probably died young. 4 Anthony, born at Wells, ME on 1 Mar 1695 [19]and baptized in Wenham in 1695.[20] 5 Sarah, born say 1697, probably at Sandwich, MA. 6 John, born at Rochester, MA on Mar. 18, 1699.[21] 7 Hannah, born at Rochester on Nov. 30, 1700.[22] 8 Rosanna, born at Rochester on Nov. 23, 1700.[23] 9 Ithamer, born at Rochester on Nov. 20, 1704.[24] 10 Joshua, born at Rochester on July 28, 1706.[25] 11 Frances, born at Rochester on July 20, 1708.[26] 12 Jane, born at Rochester on Mar. 29, 1710.[27] Life in Wells Shortly after their marriage, the King William’s War [1689–1697] broke out and Anthony sent his young bride to live with her family in Essex County, MA. Meanwhile, Anthony spent much of his time in Wells; his section of the town was often in the hands of the Indians.[4][28] On 15 Apr 1697, Anthony was in Wells and served on a Jury of Inquest: “Upon the body of John Mackaney who: was found drowned in a gunqued [Ogunquit] Rever: wee Judge it was occasioned through his onaquaintednes with the River and not by any other means”[29] The other members of the inquest jury were Jonathan Hammond, John Wheelwright, Josiah Littlefield, Eliab Littlefield, Mark Rounds, Samuel Jones, James Ros, Nathaniell Frost, John Drisco, James Denmark, and John Rodgers. On 8 Nov 1699, John Wooden (Dorcas’ brother), with the consent of Katharine, his wife, sold a certain parcel of land in Wells, ME to Nathaniel Clark of Wells that abutted “Land claimed by Anthony Comes & Nicholas Cole near Little River Mill….”[30] This was the land purchased by Lewis Allen in 1685. "The inhabitants of Wells were beleaguered throughout the French and Indian Wars, with devastating attacks in 1692 and 1703. In August, 1703, Wells was attacked with such desperation that in a short period of time 39 of its inhabitants were killed or made prisoners, besides many wounded."[31][32] Life in Rochester October 13, 1703, Anthony was one of “Seven Christian men of Rochester [MA], in addition to Mr. [Samuel] Arnold [minister], signed the covenant that day….” establishing the First Church of Rochester. [33] In 1704, Anthony was granted land in Rochester near Peter Blackmer’s mill at Leonard’s Pond, on the condition that he “do the work of a smith among us for seven years”.[33] In the same year a road was laid out “towards the mill [the Sippican mill dam] touching John White’s land, and an old bridge, Anthony Coombs’ land, and so to Kennel Winston’s land.” [11] In 1709 there were thirty–five members of the church, including Anthony, but not Dorcas[33] Anthony Coombs purchased “one half of the thirty first lot of fresh meadow & medow ground & swampy land…in the Township of Rochester aforesd & lyeth on the easterly branch of Sippican River….” from William Clarke “for six pounds and ten shillings in corant money of New England….” This purchase was made on 9 Feb 1703/4. [34] on 25 Jun 1722, Anthony Coombs and Dorcas, his wife, of Rochester, Plymouth county, sold her interest in her father’s right to commonage in Haverhill, MA.[35] Death There is no record of the death of either Anthony or Dorcas. Dorcas had probably died before 12 Oct 1736 when Anthony conveyed their dwelling house and homestead to their son, John, without her participation in the conveyance [36] Anthony's date of death was sometime after acknowledging his final deed on 29 Aug 1746 [37], but almost certainly before 1754 when his care-givers, John and Lydia (Woodin) Coombs, removed to Brunswick, ME.[5]	COOMBS, Antoine (I47080)
424	Apparently died in infancy.	CARLETON, Robert (I37483)
425	Apparently not the person who immigrated on the “Hopewell” in 1635, nor the person who settled in Hingham, s/o Humphrey TURNER. —— THOMAS, Kittery, here by 1648 (see Hil- ton 17), his age wildly guessed at (±48 in 1672, +56 in 1673, ±73 in 1683). Sued by John Cutt, 1666. He m. Mary, wid. of Robert Beedle (4) and Rev. Stephen Batchelder (3), and sold her Gorges gr. to Peter Staples (1) in 1674. Lists 25, 285. Christian Remick accounted as adm. 28 Oct. 1684. Goody Rog- ers was pd. for curing his leg and Staples was reimbursed for the funeral expenses. —— Savage stated that this passenger "may be" the Thomas Turner who appeared at Exeter by 1652 [Savage 4:348]. Noyes, Libby and Davis included a Thomas Turner who was in Kittery by 1648, presumably the same man mentioned by Savage, and showed that "his age [was] widely guessed at" as about 48 in 1672, about 56 in 1673 and about 73 in 1683 [GDMNH 700, sources not cited]. These ages cover a range of years of birth from about 1617 to about 1624, which would make the Kittery man much younger than the passenger of 1635. Pope stated that this passenger "settled at Hingham" and "removed to Scituate" [Pope 465]. The Thomas Turner of Scituate was certainly the son of HUMPHREY TURNER and was probably born about 1627 [GMB 3:1843-46], so could not have been the passenger of 1635. There remains the Thomas Turner of Hingham. The earliest record of him was on 16 November 1637, when he was granted a house lot, a great lot and a planting lot at Hingham [HiBOP 9r]. Since the grant of a house lot generally brought with it a full proprietary share in town lands, Thomas Turner of Hingham most likely settled there in late 1637, and in the absence of further evidence should be accounted an immigrant of that year. Nothing connects him with the passenger of 1635. Further records for Thomas Turner of Hingham are found from 1640 to 1650, with no suggestion of a wife and children and no indication of his fate after 1650 [SLR 1:70, 117-18; Lechford 306; Aspinwall 124, 161, 179, 288; see also Aspinwall 26, 95, 215].	TURNER, Thomas (I3253)
426	Apparently unhappy with her marriage, and possibly involved with another man, she left her husband and children. She died on her 32nd birthday in a Portland, Maine hospital. Her Portland, Maine death certificate says that she had only been a resident of Portland for six weeks, and that she died of a lung infection after a 10 day hospital stay.	WILKINS, Clara Bertha (I26885)
427	Apparently, Lillian and her sister Mary lived together until they died and never married.	BERGER, Lillian Ida (I5582)
428	Apparently, there were two John Heards, which has caused much confusion. Capt John HEARD was in court for calling Godfrey old knave and criticizing Capt. Champernowne in 1647. He was living in 1650 in Champernowne Island (Kittery), York, Maine. John was buying land in York at this time. He was in court in Oct 1650. Apparently he had built a house on Champernowne Island and on not getting his pay, had it burnt. Judgement of the court that he replace as good and as large a house. He owned 50 acres granted to him in 1652 in Cochecho (now Dover), Strafford, New Hampshire. This Place was "under the Great Hill at Cochecho". He was living in 1654 in Dover, Strafford, N.H. His will dated 2 Apr 1687 in Dover, Strafford, N.H. John Heard's will is found in the Registry of Deeds at Exeter, N.H. In it he gave property to his wife Elizabeth, — children, Benjamin, Tristram, Samuel, Dorcas, Nathaniel, Mary (Ham), Abigail (Jones) and Elizabeth (Nute) and to his "prentice John WALDRON." On 11 March 1651/2, John HEARD successfully sued Anthony Emery of slander. [MPCR 1:157]	HEARD, Capt John (I3121)

431	Aquila (1), ±48 in 1666, mariner, although forgotten by Edward Colcord presumably came to Hampton with his brother Thomas "the first summer." He soon married Anne Wheeler and in 1646 removed with her family to Newbury, settling at Newburyport. Lists 391b, 392a, 393b. He coasted between Newburyport and Boston. Will 10 Dec. died 27 Dec. 1670. His widow married 14 June 1672 Daniel Silloway and died 21 Apr. 1687. For grandchildren who came back to N. H., see Chase genealogy. —— The town of Newbury granted him four acres of land for a house on condition he go to sea and do service in the town with a boat for four years. There is a tradition in the Chase family that he brought the first vessel over Newbury Bar.	CHASE, Aquila (I34490)
432	Aquila (s/o Aquila 1), born 26 Sept. 1652, had the homestead; died 29 July 1720, 9 children.	CHASE, Sgt Aquila (I6788)

434	Around 1326, Stafford married his first wife, Katherine de Hastang. Katherine was the daughter of Sir John de Hastang, Knight, of Chebsey, Staffordshire. Ralph and Katherine had two daughters: • Margaret Stafford, married Sir John de Stafford, Knight, of "Broomshull" (Bramshall near Uttoxeter, Staffordshire[7][8][9][10]) and Amblecote in the parish of Old Swinford, Worcestershire,[11] ancestor of several prominent Stafford lines, most notably Stafford of Hooke in Dorset, Stafford of Southwick in Wiltshire and Stafford of Grafton in Worcestershire. • Joan Stafford, married Sir Nicholas de Beke, Knight. He later sensationally abducted Margaret de Audley, 2nd Baroness Audley, daughter of Hugh de Audley, 1st Earl of Gloucester and Margaret de Clare, who was worth at least £2,314 a year, more than ten times his own estates. Her parents filed a complaint with King Edward III of England, but the King supported Stafford's actions. In compensation, the King appeased Hugh and Margaret by creating Hugh the 1st Earl of Gloucester. Margaret de Audley and Stafford married before 6 July 1336 and they subsequently had two sons and four daughters: • Ralph de Stafford (d. 1347), married Maud of Lancaster, daughter of Henry of Grosmont, 1st Duke of Lancaster and Isabel de Beaumont in 1344.[5][12] • Hugh de Stafford, 2nd Earl of Stafford, born circa 1336 in Staffordshire, England, married Philippa de Beauchamp; they were the ancestors of the Dukes of Buckingham (1444 creation).[12] • Elizabeth de Stafford, born circa 1340 in Staffordshire, England, died 7 August 1376, married firstly Fulk le Strange;[12] married secondly, John de Ferrers, 4th Baron Ferrers of Chartley; married thirdly Reginald de Cobham, 4th Baron Cobham.[13] • Beatrice de Stafford, born circa 1341 in Staffordshire, England, died 1415, married firstly, in 1350, Maurice FitzGerald, 2nd Earl of Desmond (d. June 1358); married secondly, Thomas de Ros, 4th Baron de Ros, of Helmsley; married thirdly Sir Richard Burley, Knt.[12] • Joan de Stafford, born in 1344 in Staffordshire, England, died 1397, married firstly, John Charleton, 3rd Baron Cherleton;[12] married secondly Gilbert Talbot, 3rd Baron Talbot.[14] • Katherine de Stafford, born circa 1348 in Staffordshire, England and died in December 1361. On 25 December 1357, she married Sir John Sutton III (1339 – c. 1370 or 1376), Knight, Master of Dudley Castle, Staffordshire.[15] Burke reports that she died without issue.[16] However, Burke is often erroneous and incomplete, and later evidence supports that she is the mother of John Sutton IV, 3rd Baron Sutton of Dudley, probably having died in childbirth.[17]	DE STAFFORD, Sir Ralph (I43386)

436	Arrived Boston Jun 17 1630 on the Arabella. In 1698, Thomas, together with his sons Robert and John and others, he organized the First Church of Christ of Preston and became its first deacon. The Rev. Richard Blinman, his brother-in-law, was pastor of this church. Reference: History of Stonington, pg. 527-528; Ancient Weathersfield.	PARKE, Thomas (I21833)
437	Arrived in New England in 1630. Noyes/Libby/Davis, "Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire," (1939), 5:752; Anderson, Robert Charles, "The Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England, 1620-1633," [1995, NEHGS], 3:1983-85. Master of the ship “James”. —— From Wikipedia: Captain Thomas Wiggin (1592-1667), often known as Governor Thomas Wiggin, was the first governor of the Upper Plantation of New Hampshire which eventually became the Royal Province of New Hampshire in 1741. Captain Thomas Wiggin first ventured to New England in 1630 when he sailed with John Winthrop to Boston on the Winthrop Fleet. In the years that followed, he served as the governor of the Upper Plantation, comprising modern-day Dover, Durham and Stratham. In 1631 he settled in Stratham. He was also the holder of the massive Squamscott patent, land east of the mouth of the Squamscott River, and continued to be a close ally of Governor John Winthrop of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He was a Puritan and extremely religious. He ascribed fervently to the belief that the Anglican Church had to be cleansed of Catholic theology and ritual. He was convinced that God would punish England for its heresy, and believed that English Puritans needed to create a New England in a new world. In June 1659, his son Andrew Wiggin married Hannah Bradstreet, daughter of Massachusetts Bay Colony Governor Simon Bradstreet and Anne Bradstreet (daughter of Massachusetts Bay Colony Governor Thomas Dudley).	WIGGIN, Capt Thomas (I2677)
438	Arrived in the White Angel with Mr. Allerton at Saco, Maine, early in the summer of 1631. He became a freeman of the Plymouth Colony, Jan. 1, 16333 and lived for a time in Sciutuate, but became an early member of the new community at Marshfield, where he was constable in 1641.

440	As a young boy, he moved with his parents to Bjortjonnlid, in Fiplingdal. They took over the farm in Fiplingkroken after Antonette’s father, and lived there until they died.	HANSEN, Nils (I7152)
441	As no record of his marriage has been found, it probably occurred at Beeford, where marriage records are missing from the register, 1563-1626. From his fine of 1618/19, by which he sold a messuage and garden at Kingston-upon-Hull, it appears that his wife's name was Dorothy ??? - Probably she had died by 1620, since she is the only daughter-in-law not mentioned in John Carleton's will. The Chancery Proceedings have preserved for us the interesting suit of Thomas Carlton of Lockington in 1625 to recover three tenements with gardens in Kingston, which he claimed he had inherited from his great uncle, Thomas Wilson, gent., brother to his grandmother, Jennett Carleton; thus furnishing a valuable item for this pedigree. He died intestate, and, 16 Oct. 1627, administration on his estate was granted to Edward Downes of Beeford during the minority of the children, Thomas, John, Philip, Margaret, Joas, and Elizabeth. Edward Downes may have been a brother of Thomas Carlton's wife, though not found in the Beeford register. The Estate of THOMAS CARLETON of Lockington, 16 Oct. 1627.

460	Augustus Theodore Orcutt was born October 20, 1875 in Sycamore Township,Montgomery County, Kansas, the third s/o Seymour Woodford and MarthaAnn Yocham Orcutt. To family and friends he would be known as "Dode",but to his children, their families, and many neighbors, he was known as"Dad" Orcutt. Although over thirty years have passed since his death heis still remembered as having been a good man, and for his beautifulflower garden in the Terlton, Oklahoma community. A man of the highestmoral character, superior farming ability, and fairness in all hisdealings with his fellow man, he was and is still held in respect bythose who knew him. Mr. A.T. Orcutt and Miss Eiffel May Stevenson were united in marriageon Dec. 21, 1904. On their marriage license it states A.T. was 29 yrs.old and Eiffel was 16 yrs. old. They both list their town of residenceas Catoosa, Indian Territory. Their marriage license was obtained atClaremore, Indian Territory, and they were married that same day by JamesM. Jackson. A.T. was always a farmer. On the 1900 Census for Coweta, I.T., he islisted as living with his brother Dolph and his occupation is farmlabor. His father, Seymour Woodford, died June 17, 1901 at Oakland, AR.After his father's death, his mother, Martha, and the rest of the familymoved to Indian Territory. A.T. probably helped them move and stayedwith them until he married. The following story has been told of how A.T.and Eiffel met. A.T. was farming and hired Eiffel's father, B.A. Stevenson, to workfor him. A.T. met and fell in love with Eiffel, and asked her to marryhim, but, there was already another man in her life. The man was anItalian, and had black curly hair, and Eiffel wanted to marry him.Eiffel's mother, Martha, wanted her to marry A.T. because he was such agood worker and she felt that he would be the best provider for her. Soher mother told her that the Italian had some negro blood in him and ifEiffel married him they would have spotted children. She convinced herto marry A.T., but on her wedding night she cried to go home to hermother. It wasn't long before Eiffel changed her mind about married lifeand she and her husband Dode were raising both crops and kids in the OldIndian Territory that was soon to become the State of Oklahoma. Eiffeldied in 1934 and Dode lived to be 88, having died in 1964. The following story is as related to Larry Orcutt by his father, LeonardOrcutt, one of the sons of the Moat in the story. The Orcutt Brothers and the Syrup Thieves The three boys (young men) who ran freight into Indian Territory wereDode, Moat and Charlie. They were traveling with a competitor, who had afew men and wagons, as did the brothers. One of the competitor's wagonsgot hung up in a swollen creek. as it had been raining the past fewdays. The Orcutts came back into the creek with one wagon and tied upto pull out the stuck wagon. As they were pulling him, the competitornoticed a barrel of White syrup on the back of the Orcutt's wagon. Thissyrup was like gold at that time. The freighters traveled on and later,after camping for night, the older brothers were asleep, but Charlie, theyoungest, probably in his late teens, was restless and took a walk. Heoverheard the competitors and his men talking about stealing the syrup.He went back and told Moat and Dode. Thay feigned sleep and let thescoundrels take the barrel of syrup. The got up early in the morningwhile it was still dark and the competitors were still asleep. Theysilently hitched up, then snuck over, took the barrel, opened it andfilled the empty scoundrel boots with syrup. Then they took off at aquick pace, wagons and all.

469	Background on his family is given in NEHGR 65:322, 75:226, and 114:153. —— Elder Nathaniel Tilden came from Tenterden in Kent, with his family, before 1628. He was chosen Ruling Elder of the first Church in Scituate 1634. His house lot was on Kent-street, the 3d. south of Greenfield lane. He had also lands at Long marsh: and lands also in 1640, on the east side of the North River, below Gravelly beach. Nathaniel arrived in New England in 1634 in the ship Hercules, of Dover, with his wife and children (Joseph, Mary, Sarah, Judith, Lydia, Stephen, and Thomas), and the following, who came under the designation of 'servants:' Thomas Lapham, George Sutton, Edward Ford, Edward Jenkins, James Bennett, Sarah Couchman, and Mary Perien. The Rev. William Witherell came on this same boat. Nathaniel Tilden was among the earliest of the 'Men of Kent' who established plantations at Satuit before 1628, others being Anthony Annable, Thomas Bird, Edward Foster, William Gillson, Henry Merritt, Henry Rowley, Nathaniel Tilden, and Deane says, 'perhaps others.' Nathaniel was a Magistrate in Tenterden, and elected to the office of Mayor. Elder Nath'l Tilden was the ancestor of nearly all the Tildens in Marshfield. He was one of three borothers, and they were called 'Men of Kent,' from England. He came to Scituate at that portion called 'Tow Mile' tract, now known as North Marshfield, in 1628. His farm extended both sides of North River, part of it being on 'Gravelly beach’. Nathaniel came in the Hercules in 1635 from Sandwich, in Co. Kent, being one of an old family at Tenterden, near Cranbrook, in that shire, bringing wife Lydia, seven children and seven servants. He may have visited our country before and went home to bring his household; but it does not appear by any facts. He settled in Scituate. In May 1637, with his friend Hatherly, he was appointed by Plymouth Colony to settle the bounds between it and the Massachusetts Colony. He was ruling elder in the church and died 1641, the inventory being of 31 July, and his will of 25 May preceding in that year. It names his wife Lydia, perhaps daughter of Thomas Bourne of Marshfield, yet married in England to which he gives his home at Tenterden, all the seven children Joseph; Thomas, b. a. 1621; Mary, the w. of Thomas Lapham, m. 13 Mar. 1637; Sarah, the w. of George Sutton; Judith; Lydia; and Stephen; also two servants who should serve his eldest son.. —— All the children of Nathaniel and Lydia Tilden were born in England, five dying there prior to the family's departure. The children were Thomas, who died young; Mary, who married Thomas Lapham; Joseph, who died young; Sarah, who married George Sutton; Joseph, who married Alice or Elizabeth Twisden; Stephen, who died young; Thomas, who married Elizabeth (Bourne) Waterman; Judith, who married Abraham Preble; Winifred, who died young; Lydia, who died young; Lydia, who married Richard Garrett; and Stephen, who married Hannah Little. Mary and Sarah were married on the same day, 13 March 1636/37 (NEHGR 9:286), and their husbands were Tilden's servants. ??After his death, his widow Lydia married Timothy Hatherly. Elizabeth French shows in NEHGR 70:256 that Lydia (Huckstep) (Tilden) Hatherly was a cousin of Thomas Hatch, q.v., who also came to New England in the Hercules and settled at Scituate. ??Tilden was of the gentry and addressed as "Mr.," and he was one of the wealthier Scituate residents. He dated his will 25 May 1641, inventory 31 July 1641, and he named his wife Lydia and his children Stephen; Lydia; Joseph; Thomas; Judith; Mary, the wife of Thomas Lapham; and Sarah, the wife of George Sutton; and he also mentioned his two indentured servants, Edward Jenkins and Edward Tarte (MD 3:220). —— Nathaniel Tilden‘s descendants flourished in America, such as the Hon Samuel Jones Tilden, who served as Governor of New York State and was a presidential candidate (Democrat) in 1875. —— Register of St. Mildred's Church, Tenterden, Kent, England, 1583.

He made war against Endes, Count of Paris, who usurped the French crown and defeated him. He died in 919. —— Baldwin II, nicknamed Calvus (the Bald), was the second Count of Flanders. He was also hereditary abbot of St. Bertin from 892 till his death. He was the son of Baldwin I of Flanders and Judith, a daughter of Charles the Bald. The early years of Baldwin's rule were marked by a series of devastating Viking raids. Little north of the Somme was untouched. Baldwin recovered, building new fortresses and improving city walls, and taking over abandoned property, so that in the end he held far more territory, and held it more strongly, than had his father. He also took advantage of the conflicts between Charles the Simple and Odo, Count of Paris, to take over the Ternois and the Boulonnias. In 884 Baldwin married Ælfthryth (Ælfthryth, Elftrude, Elfrida), a daughter of King Alfred the Great of England. The marriage was motivated by the common Flemish-English opposition to the Vikings, and was the start of an alliance that was a mainstay of Flemish policy for centuries to come. In 900, he tried to curb the power of Archbishop Fulk of Rheims by assassinating him, but he was excommunicated by Pope Benedict IV. He died at Blandinberg and was succeeded by his eldest son Arnulf I of Flanders. His younger son Adalulf was (the first) count of Boulogne. His illegitimate son Albert was bishop of Paris. http://familypedia.wikia.com/wiki/Baldwin_II_of_Flanders_(c865-918); 20 Mar 2019	DE FLANDERS, Count Baldwin II (I39922)

485	Battle of Baton Rouge Estimated Casualties: 849 total (US 371; CS 478) In an attempt to regain control of the state, Confederates wished to recapture the capital at Baton Rouge. Maj. Gen. John C. Breckinridge planned a combined land/water expedition with his corps and CSS Ram Arkansas. Advancing west from Camp Moore, the Confederate land forces, coming from the east, were only ten miles away on August 4. They reached the outskirts of the capital early in the morning, formed for an attack in two divisions, and began to drive back each Union unit they encountered. Then, Union gunboats in the river began shelling the Confederates. The Arkansas could have neutralized the Union gunboats, but her engines failed and she did not participate in the battle. Federal land forces, in the meantime, fell back to a more defensible line, and the Union commander, Brig. Gen. Thomas Williams, was killed soon after. The new commander, Col. Thomas W. Cahill, ordered a retreat to a prepared defensive line nearer the river and within the gunboats’ protection. Rebels assailed the new line, but finally the Federals forced them to retire. The next day the Arkansas’s engines failed again as she closed on the Union gunboats; she was blown up and scuttled by her crew. The Confederates failed to recapture the state capital.«s77»	CARTER, Mark Haskell (I8027)
486	Battle of Manila Bay (May 1, 1898), defeat of the Spanish Pacific fleet by the U.S. Navy, resulting in the fall of the Philippines and contributing to the final U.S. victory in the Spanish–American War. After the United States had declared war (April 25), its Asiatic squadron was ordered from Hong Kong to “capture or destroy the Spanish fleet” then in Philippine waters. The U.S. Navy was well trained and well supplied, largely through the energetic efforts of the young assistant secretary of the Navy, Theodore Roosevelt, who had selected Commo. George Dewey for the command of the Asiatic squadron. In one morning’s engagement (May 1), the guns of Dewey’s squadron completely destroyed the Spanish ships anchored in Manila Bay. After the war, speculation and controversy arose when many believed the battle had been intended as a bloodless contest between the U.S. and Spain. Jaudenes had agreed to surrender the city but not without an American show of force, as the Spanish wanted to save themselves the humiliation of capitulating without the appearance of a battle. Another major reason why Jaudenes was anxious to surrender to the Americans was to prevent the city from falling to the Filipinos. Jaudenes feared that the Spanish populace would be dealt with mercilessly and knew that surrendering to the U.S. would provide him with the protection of a legitimate government. The U.S. was also anxious to keep the city from Aguinaldo's control. With a staged battle, both sides felt the city could change hands without the Filipinos being involved. However, by August 13 Aguinaldo was well aware of the secret deal between Jaudenes and Dewey, and on August 13 his Filipino troops attacked along their entire perimeter, not just in the American sector. He knew that only by participating in the attack and securing a place at the negotiating table would he be able to advance the cause of Filipino independence.

488	Beard. There were two of this name. (two brothers of course). One lived at Oyster River, the other at Dover Neck. The Dover Neck one, Thomas, was born 1608 (as by depsosition) admitted freeman in Mass. 10 May, 1643; was taxed at Dover Neck 1648, and for many years after. His will was dated 11 Dec 1768, proved 25 Mar, 1679; he gave property to his wife Marie, to daughters Marie, Martha, (Br---) Elizabeth (Watson), and to son Thomas. William of O.R. sold his premises there, 16 Jun 1640, to Francis Matthews, but continued to live at O.R. He was taxed 1648-1672; selectman 1660, &c. He was the “good old man named Beard,” who was killed at O.R. 1675. His inventory was entered 2 Mar, 1677-8; wife Elizabeth. He appears to have had a son Jospeh, (we are not sure) who lived at O.R. and owned Beard’s Garrison House, which was destroyed in the Indian attack of 1694. This Jospeh was born 1655, and was dead in 1704, leaving a widow, Esther. We may have met the name in the vicinity within a short time, but spelt Bierd.	BEARD, William (I36613)
489	Beatrice, born c. 880 was the daughter of Herbert I, Count of Vermandois. She was also the sister of Herbert II, Count of Vermandois, and was a descendant in the male line of Charlemagne through King Bernard of Italy. Through her marriage to Robert I, she was an ancestress of the Capetian dynasty. On 15 June 923 her husband Robert was killed at the Battle of Soissons shortly after which their son Hugh was offered the crown but refused.	DE VERMANDOIS, Beatrice (I40264)
490	Became Freeman and member of the church	EMERSON, Robert (I47108)
491	Became Lord of Throckmorton in the thirteenth year of the reign of Edward III (1339). He married Agnes (sometimes called Anne), daughter and heiress of Sir Richard Abberbury, of Abberbury in the County of Oxford, and had issue.	THROCKMORTON, Sir John (I19695)
492	Before this generation, the family did not have a consistent surname. Therefore, Thomas is the earliest person with this name. —— In the time of William the Conqueror, Adderbury was called Edburgbcrie, a name strikingly suggestive of its having an origin closely identified with the Ead or Ed family. —— THE name Edson is of Anglo-Saxon origin. It is a com- bination of two words : Ed, a variation of the spelling of the ancient term Ead ; and son, an explanatory suffix, establishing the relationship of a child to a parent known as Ed. Ead, as an Anglo-Saxon noun, signifies wealth, prosper- ity, happiness, joy, or bliss. In the early poetical com- positions of the Anglo-Saxons, ead is the initial syllable of such compounds as eadfuma, author of prosperity; cad- giefa, giver of prosperity; eadluje, love; and eadwela, riches. It has similar precedence in compound names, as is shown in Eadmund, a protector of riches; Eadweard, a guardian of property ; and Eadivin, a gainer of happiness. —— The invasion and occupation by the Saxons of that part of Britain, now known as Oxfordshire, began about the end of the sixth century. In the ninth, the fierce con- flicts between the Saxons made it the scene of many bloody struggles for the possession of its territory. The city of Oxford, it is said, was four times reduced to ashes during the time of this warfare. —— Of the ancient church records there is now neither trace nor tradition. Hence there are no available means by which to elicit any knowledge of the names of the wor- shippers who congregated beneath the high-vaulted roof of the stately sanctuary during the first four centuries of its existence. Moreover, it should be remembered that searches for data to determine lines of descent from English ancestors cannot be prosecuted at the present time with any measure of success farther back than the century preceding that in which Thomas Edson had his birth, who probably was born about twelve years before the discovery of America by Columbus. As Cussans asseverates, "except in a few rare instances, it is utterly impossible to trace a pedigree beyond the time of Richard the Second," (1377-1399). —— One of the landed gentry of Adderbury, contemporary with Thomas Edson, was John Bustard, whose immediate ancestors were descendants of the ancient family of Bus- tard, of Nether-Ex, in Devonshire.

While an American general, he obtained command of the fortifications at West Point, New York (future site of the U.S. Military Academy after 1802), overlooking the cliffs at the Hudson River (upriver from British- occupied New York City), and planned to surrender it to the British forces. After the plan was exposed in September 1780, he was commissioned into the British Army as a brigadier general. —— m1 Margaret Mansfield (m. 1767; died 1775 of Cancer) They had 3 sons	ARNOLD, Gen Benedict (I45078)

Anderson (GMB) suggests the possibility that John and his family might have been passengers of the Mary & John, since they came in 1630 and were first of Dorchester. Many early settlers of Dorchester were from the West Country of England. John Greenaway and Mary Greenaway joined the Dorchester Church in 1636. John was "freeman" 18 Oct 1630.

Andrew Craig, the ancestor of the Craig family of Farmington, was of Scottish birth. He was one of the brave men who left their native country to find a home in the north of Ireland during the troublous period of its later history. In 1725, with his wife, Jenett Todd, and young family, he left Scotland, and after a brief residence of five years in Ireland, embarked for America, arriving in Boston Feb 28, 1730. Soon after he removed to Wrentham, Mass. John, son of Andrew, was born in Scotland, October, 1721, and came with his parents to this country. He married Mary Skinner and spent his life in Wrentham, where he died, Apr 27, 1803, and his wife, June 18, 1788. Among their children were Elias Craig, who settled in Augusta, and Enoch Craig, who was among the pioneers of Farmington.

Anna Catharine Simbric was born Dec. 5, 1877. On November 5, 1893, she united with the Baptist church at Plainfield, since which time she has lived a devoted christian life, always with cheer and joy working for her master. On Feb. 22,1898, she was married to Charles L. Orcutt. Two children have gladdened their home, the youngest preceding her in death only a few weeks ago. Leila, aged three, is left to comfort a heart-broken, sorrowing husband, the grief-stricken hearts of a devoted father, mother three sisters and three brothers. Anna has always lived here and leaves hosts of friends who have loved her cheerful disposition, and since disease had fastened itself so firmly upon her she never forgot the welfare of her friends, and above all had that sweet, abiding trust in God that leaves us that blessed hope of a glorious immortality in that mansion which He has gone to prepare.
After medical skill had done all possible and loving hands had administered the comforts of life she sweetly and calmly fell asleep in the arms of Jesus on July 20, 1906.

Antoine Comeau (anglicized as Anthony Coombs) was born about 1661 in Port Royal (then Nouvelle-France) Nova Scotia as known by his age 10 on the 1671 census of Port Royal.[1] He was the 5th son of Pierre Comeau and Rose Bayol (or Bayon) who married about 1650. [2] He is again at Port Royal living with his family in 1678 though his mother had died. His calculated birth years ranged between 1658 and 1661.[3]
Anthony moved in 1684 from Port Royal to the part of Massachusetts which later became the state of Maine to work for Louis Allain (anglicized as Lewis Allen). When Lewis Allen abandoned his property in Wells to return to Port Royal in 1686 or 1687, he left Anthony Coombs on his land.[4] "At that time Anthony may still have been bound by his apprenticeship contract. However, that compact had undoubtedly expired by February 1688, since apprentices were normally barred from marrying during their period of servitude."[5]. Note: if this is true, then it raises the possibility that Coombs and Comeau, who was found in the 1686 Acadian census living with his father at age 24 are not the same[6]. See Similarities and Connections section for possible reasons for this.
In 1686 at Port Royal, Antoine age 24 was living with his father Pierre COMMEAU, a widower at age 88, and his two brothers: Pierre age 25 and Jean age 21. They were living on 6 arpents of cultivated land with 4 cattle, 12 sheep and 4 hogs.[6]
On September 5, 1688 Anthony was married to Dorcas Wooden by Mr. Martin (minister) in Wells, Maine.[7][8][9][10] [11] [12]She was born at Rowley, MA on Feb. 10, 1671, daughter of John Wooden[13][4][14] and Mary (Johnson) Wooden.[4][15][13]
Anthony and Dorcas' 12 children included:
1 Mary, baptized at Beverly, MA on Nov. 3, 1689.[16]
2 Peter, baptized at Beverly, MA on Oct. 18, 1691.[17]
3 Tabitha, baptized at Wenham, MA in 1693,[18] probably died young.
4 Anthony, born at Wells, ME on 1 Mar 1695 [19]and baptized in Wenham in 1695.[20]
5 Sarah, born say 1697, probably at Sandwich, MA.
6 John, born at Rochester, MA on Mar. 18, 1699.[21]
7 Hannah, born at Rochester on Nov. 30, 1700.[22]
8 Rosanna, born at Rochester on Nov. 23, 1700.[23]
9 Ithamer, born at Rochester on Nov. 20, 1704.[24]
10 Joshua, born at Rochester on July 28, 1706.[25]
11 Frances, born at Rochester on July 20, 1708.[26]
12 Jane, born at Rochester on Mar. 29, 1710.[27]
Life in Wells
Shortly after their marriage, the King William’s War [1689–1697] broke out and Anthony sent his young bride to live with her family in Essex County, MA. Meanwhile, Anthony spent much of his time in Wells; his section of the town was often in the hands of the Indians.[4][28]
On 15 Apr 1697, Anthony was in Wells and served on a Jury of Inquest: “Upon the body of John Mackaney who: was found drowned in a gunqued [Ogunquit] Rever: wee Judge it was occasioned through his onaquaintednes with the River and not by any other means”[29] The other members of the inquest jury were Jonathan Hammond, John Wheelwright, Josiah Littlefield, Eliab Littlefield, Mark Rounds, Samuel Jones, James Ros, Nathaniell Frost, John Drisco, James Denmark, and John Rodgers.
On 8 Nov 1699, John Wooden (Dorcas’ brother), with the consent of Katharine, his wife, sold a certain parcel of land in Wells, ME to Nathaniel Clark of Wells that abutted “Land claimed by Anthony Comes & Nicholas Cole near Little River Mill….”[30] This was the land purchased by Lewis Allen in 1685.
"The inhabitants of Wells were beleaguered throughout the French and Indian Wars, with devastating attacks in 1692 and 1703. In August, 1703, Wells was attacked with such desperation that in a short period of time 39 of its inhabitants were killed or made prisoners, besides many wounded."[31][32]
Life in Rochester
October 13, 1703, Anthony was one of “Seven Christian men of Rochester [MA], in addition to Mr. [Samuel] Arnold [minister], signed the covenant that day….” establishing the First Church of Rochester. [33]
In 1704, Anthony was granted land in Rochester near Peter Blackmer’s mill at Leonard’s Pond, on the condition that he “do the work of a smith among us for seven years”.[33] In the same year a road was laid out “towards the mill [the Sippican mill dam] touching John White’s land, and an old bridge, Anthony Coombs’ land, and so to Kennel Winston’s land.” [11]
In 1709 there were thirty–five members of the church, including Anthony, but not Dorcas[33] Anthony Coombs purchased “one half of the thirty first lot of fresh meadow & medow ground & swampy land…in the Township of Rochester aforesd & lyeth on the easterly branch of Sippican River….” from William Clarke “for six pounds and ten shillings in corant money of New England….” This purchase was made on 9 Feb 1703/4. [34]
on 25 Jun 1722, Anthony Coombs and Dorcas, his wife, of Rochester, Plymouth county, sold her interest in her father’s right to commonage in Haverhill, MA.[35]
Death
There is no record of the death of either Anthony or Dorcas. Dorcas had probably died before 12 Oct 1736 when Anthony conveyed their dwelling house and homestead to their son, John, without her participation in the conveyance [36] Anthony's date of death was sometime after acknowledging his final deed on 29 Aug 1746 [37], but almost certainly before 1754 when his care-givers, John and Lydia (Woodin) Coombs, removed to Brunswick, ME.[5]

Goody Rog- ers was pd. for curing his leg and Staples was reimbursed for the funeral expenses.
——
Savage stated that this passenger "may be" the Thomas Turner who appeared at Exeter by 1652 [Savage 4:348]. Noyes, Libby and Davis included a Thomas Turner who was in Kittery by 1648, presumably the same man mentioned by Savage, and showed that "his age [was] widely guessed at" as about 48 in 1672, about 56 in 1673 and about 73 in 1683 [GDMNH 700, sources not cited]. These ages cover a range of years of birth from about 1617 to about 1624, which would make the Kittery man much younger than the passenger of 1635.
Pope stated that this passenger "settled at Hingham" and "removed to Scituate" [Pope 465]. The Thomas Turner of Scituate was certainly the son of HUMPHREY TURNER and was probably born about 1627 [GMB 3:1843-46], so could not have been the passenger of 1635.
There remains the Thomas Turner of Hingham. The earliest record of him was on 16 November 1637, when he was granted a house lot, a great lot and a planting lot at Hingham [HiBOP 9r]. Since the grant of a house lot generally brought with it a full proprietary share in town lands, Thomas Turner of Hingham most likely settled there in late 1637, and in the absence of further evidence should be accounted an immigrant of that year. Nothing connects him with the passenger of 1635. Further records for Thomas Turner of Hingham are found from 1640 to 1650, with no suggestion of a wife and children and no indication of his fate after 1650 [SLR 1:70, 117-18; Lechford 306; Aspinwall 124, 161, 179, 288; see also Aspinwall 26, 95, 215].

Apparently, there were two John Heards, which has caused much confusion.

Capt John HEARD was in court for calling Godfrey old knave and criticizing Capt. Champernowne in 1647. He was living in 1650 in Champernowne Island (Kittery), York, Maine. John was buying land in York at this time. He was in court in Oct 1650. Apparently he had built a house on Champernowne Island and on not getting his pay, had it burnt. Judgement of the court that he replace as good and as large a house.

He owned 50 acres granted to him in 1652 in Cochecho (now Dover), Strafford, New Hampshire. This Place was "under the Great Hill at Cochecho". He was living in 1654 in Dover, Strafford, N.H.

His will dated 2 Apr 1687 in Dover, Strafford, N.H. John Heard's will is found in the Registry of Deeds at Exeter, N.H. In it he gave property to his wife Elizabeth, — children, Benjamin, Tristram, Samuel, Dorcas, Nathaniel, Mary (Ham), Abigail (Jones) and Elizabeth (Nute) and to his "prentice John WALDRON."

On 11 March 1651/2, John HEARD successfully sued Anthony Emery of slander. [MPCR 1:157]

Around 1326, Stafford married his first wife, Katherine de Hastang. Katherine was the daughter of Sir John de Hastang, Knight, of Chebsey, Staffordshire. Ralph and Katherine had two daughters:
• Margaret Stafford, married Sir John de Stafford, Knight, of "Broomshull" (Bramshall near Uttoxeter, Staffordshire[7][8][9][10]) and Amblecote in the parish of Old Swinford, Worcestershire,[11] ancestor of several prominent Stafford lines, most notably Stafford of Hooke in Dorset, Stafford of Southwick in Wiltshire and Stafford of Grafton in Worcestershire.
• Joan Stafford, married Sir Nicholas de Beke, Knight.
He later sensationally abducted Margaret de Audley, 2nd Baroness Audley, daughter of Hugh de Audley, 1st Earl of Gloucester and Margaret de Clare, who was worth at least £2,314 a year, more than ten times his own estates. Her parents filed a complaint with King Edward III of England, but the King supported Stafford's actions. In compensation, the King appeased Hugh and Margaret by creating Hugh the 1st Earl of Gloucester. Margaret de Audley and Stafford married before 6 July 1336 and they subsequently had two sons and four daughters:
• Ralph de Stafford (d. 1347), married Maud of Lancaster, daughter of Henry of Grosmont, 1st Duke of Lancaster and Isabel de Beaumont in 1344.[5][12]
• Hugh de Stafford, 2nd Earl of Stafford, born circa 1336 in Staffordshire, England, married Philippa de Beauchamp; they were the ancestors of the Dukes of Buckingham (1444 creation).[12]
• Elizabeth de Stafford, born circa 1340 in Staffordshire, England, died 7 August 1376, married firstly Fulk le Strange;[12] married secondly, John de Ferrers, 4th Baron Ferrers of Chartley; married thirdly Reginald de Cobham, 4th Baron Cobham.[13]
• Beatrice de Stafford, born circa 1341 in Staffordshire, England, died 1415, married firstly, in 1350, Maurice FitzGerald, 2nd Earl of Desmond (d. June 1358); married secondly, Thomas de Ros, 4th Baron de Ros, of Helmsley; married thirdly Sir Richard Burley, Knt.[12]
• Joan de Stafford, born in 1344 in Staffordshire, England, died 1397, married firstly, John Charleton, 3rd Baron Cherleton;[12] married secondly Gilbert Talbot, 3rd Baron Talbot.[14]
• Katherine de Stafford, born circa 1348 in Staffordshire, England and died in December 1361. On 25 December 1357, she married Sir John Sutton III (1339 – c. 1370 or 1376), Knight, Master of Dudley Castle, Staffordshire.[15] Burke reports that she died without issue.[16] However, Burke is often erroneous and incomplete, and later evidence supports that she is the mother of John Sutton IV, 3rd Baron Sutton of Dudley, probably having died in childbirth.[17]

From Wikipedia:

Captain Thomas Wiggin (1592-1667), often known as Governor Thomas Wiggin, was the first governor of the Upper Plantation of New Hampshire which eventually became the Royal Province of New Hampshire in 1741.

Captain Thomas Wiggin first ventured to New England in 1630 when he sailed with John Winthrop to Boston on the Winthrop Fleet. In the years that followed, he served as the governor of the Upper Plantation, comprising modern-day Dover, Durham and Stratham. In 1631 he settled in Stratham. He was also the holder of the massive Squamscott patent, land east of the mouth of the Squamscott River, and continued to be a close ally of Governor John Winthrop of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

He was a Puritan and extremely religious. He ascribed fervently to the belief that the Anglican Church had to be cleansed of Catholic theology and ritual. He was convinced that God would punish England for its heresy, and believed that English Puritans needed to create a New England in a new world.

In June 1659, his son Andrew Wiggin married Hannah Bradstreet, daughter of Massachusetts Bay Colony Governor Simon Bradstreet and Anne Bradstreet (daughter of Massachusetts Bay Colony Governor Thomas Dudley).

WIGGIN, Capt Thomas (I2677)

Arrived in the White Angel with Mr. Allerton at Saco, Maine, early in the summer of 1631. He became a freeman of the Plymouth Colony, Jan. 1, 16333 and lived for a time in Sciutuate, but became an early member of the new community at Marshfield, where he was constable in 1641.

As no record of his marriage has been found, it probably occurred
at Beeford, where marriage records are missing from the register,
1563-1626. From his fine of 1618/19, by which he sold a messuage and
garden at Kingston-upon-Hull, it appears that his wife's name was Dorothy
??? - Probably she had died by 1620, since she is the only
daughter-in-law not mentioned in John Carleton's will.

The Chancery Proceedings have preserved for us the interesting suit of
Thomas Carlton of Lockington in 1625 to recover three tenements with
gardens in Kingston, which he claimed he had inherited from his great
uncle, Thomas Wilson, gent., brother to his grandmother, Jennett
Carleton; thus furnishing a valuable item for this pedigree. He died
intestate, and, 16 Oct. 1627, administration on his estate was granted to
Edward Downes of Beeford during the minority of the children, Thomas,
John, Philip, Margaret, Joas, and Elizabeth. Edward Downes may have been
a brother of Thomas Carlton's wife, though not found in the Beeford
register.

The Estate of THOMAS CARLETON of Lockington, 16 Oct. 1627. Administration on the goods of Thomas Carleton, late of Lockington, was granted to Edward Downes of Beforth, during the minority of Thomas, John, Phillip, Margaret, Joas, and Elizabeth Carleton, children of the deceased. The estate was under £40 in value. (York Probate Registry, Act Book, Harthill Deanery.)

Historical documentation indicates that this James never married. Some sources indicate that the James who married Jeannie Brown died in Wilkinson, TN and not Nashville.

Some genealogists have reported this James who married Jennie Brown as the James who was President of the Republic of Texas. "The Tennessee Collinsworths" by Katherine W. Ewing of Nashville reports that James Collinsworth, the President of the Republic, is presumed the brother of William and John and the 2 brother of Edmund Collinsworth, born in 1760, of the Cockrill line."

Richard Leader - Lynn, 1645, superintendent of the iron works. Tried copper mining on Endicott’s farm at Salem, but met will ill success, and in 1650 went to Berwick, where he had presented to him the exclusive use of Little River to erect mills, and was a magistrate (Savage, iii 68). Perhaps I can add a few facts relative to this person, which may interest some genealogist. He was an active opponent of the Massachusetts Bay authorities when they extended their jurisdiction into the province of Maine, 1652, and was sent as an agent to England to bear the appeal of the Godfrey government to Parliament. While in London he sold one quarter of his mill privileges to John Becx & Co. In 1656 he speaks of “my Brother Richard Cutt.” Administration on his estate and that of his brother George Leader of Kittery, was granted April 6, 1720, “to his only child Mrs Anna Clark and Sarah Clark one of his granddaughters.” Mrs. Sarah Clark was a widow living in Portsmouth at that date, and declared that she was the “Neece and nearest Relation of Mr George Leader,” as well as the “only surviving child ... of Mr Richard Leader.”

Augustus Theodore Orcutt was born October 20, 1875 in Sycamore Township,Montgomery County, Kansas, the third s/o Seymour Woodford and MarthaAnn Yocham Orcutt. To family and friends he would be known as "Dode",but to his children, their families, and many neighbors, he was known as"Dad" Orcutt. Although over thirty years have passed since his death heis still remembered as having been a good man, and for his beautifulflower garden in the Terlton, Oklahoma community. A man of the highestmoral character, superior farming ability, and fairness in all hisdealings with his fellow man, he was and is still held in respect bythose who knew him.
Mr. A.T. Orcutt and Miss Eiffel May Stevenson were united in marriageon Dec. 21, 1904. On their marriage license it states A.T. was 29 yrs.old and Eiffel was 16 yrs. old. They both list their town of residenceas Catoosa, Indian Territory. Their marriage license was obtained atClaremore, Indian Territory, and they were married that same day by JamesM. Jackson.
A.T. was always a farmer. On the 1900 Census for Coweta, I.T., he islisted as living with his brother Dolph and his occupation is farmlabor. His father, Seymour Woodford, died June 17, 1901 at Oakland, AR.After his father's death, his mother, Martha, and the rest of the familymoved to Indian Territory. A.T. probably helped them move and stayedwith them until he married. The following story has been told of how A.T.and Eiffel met.
A.T. was farming and hired Eiffel's father, B.A. Stevenson, to workfor him. A.T. met and fell in love with Eiffel, and asked her to marryhim, but, there was already another man in her life. The man was anItalian, and had black curly hair, and Eiffel wanted to marry him.Eiffel's mother, Martha, wanted her to marry A.T. because he was such agood worker and she felt that he would be the best provider for her. Soher mother told her that the Italian had some negro blood in him and ifEiffel married him they would have spotted children. She convinced herto marry A.T., but on her wedding night she cried to go home to hermother. It wasn't long before Eiffel changed her mind about married lifeand she and her husband Dode were raising both crops and kids in the OldIndian Territory that was soon to become the State of Oklahoma. Eiffeldied in 1934 and Dode lived to be 88, having died in 1964.

The following story is as related to Larry Orcutt by his father, LeonardOrcutt, one of the sons of the Moat in the story.

The Orcutt Brothers and the Syrup Thieves

The three boys (young men) who ran freight into Indian Territory wereDode, Moat and Charlie. They were traveling with a competitor, who had afew men and wagons, as did the brothers. One of the competitor's wagonsgot hung up in a swollen creek. as it had been raining the past fewdays. The Orcutts came back into the creek with one wagon and tied upto pull out the stuck wagon. As they were pulling him, the competitornoticed a barrel of White syrup on the back of the Orcutt's wagon. Thissyrup was like gold at that time. The freighters traveled on and later,after camping for night, the older brothers were asleep, but Charlie, theyoungest, probably in his late teens, was restless and took a walk. Heoverheard the competitors and his men talking about stealing the syrup.He went back and told Moat and Dode. Thay feigned sleep and let thescoundrels take the barrel of syrup. The got up early in the morningwhile it was still dark and the competitors were still asleep. Theysilently hitched up, then snuck over, took the barrel, opened it andfilled the empty scoundrel boots with syrup. Then they took off at aquick pace, wagons and all.

Note; Dode, Moat, and Charlie were the sons of Seymour Woodford andMartha Yocham Orcutt.

——
Elder Nathaniel Tilden came from Tenterden in Kent, with his family, before 1628. He was chosen Ruling Elder of the first Church in Scituate 1634. His house lot was on Kent-street, the 3d. south of Greenfield lane. He had also lands at Long marsh: and lands also in 1640, on the east side of the North River, below Gravelly beach.
Nathaniel arrived in New England in 1634 in the ship Hercules, of Dover, with his wife and children (Joseph, Mary, Sarah, Judith, Lydia, Stephen, and Thomas), and the following, who came under the designation of 'servants:' Thomas Lapham, George Sutton, Edward Ford, Edward Jenkins, James Bennett, Sarah Couchman, and Mary Perien. The Rev. William Witherell came on this same boat.
Nathaniel Tilden was among the earliest of the 'Men of Kent' who established plantations at Satuit before 1628, others being Anthony Annable, Thomas Bird, Edward Foster, William Gillson, Henry Merritt, Henry Rowley, Nathaniel Tilden, and Deane says, 'perhaps others.'
Nathaniel was a Magistrate in Tenterden, and elected to the office of Mayor.
Elder Nath'l Tilden was the ancestor of nearly all the Tildens in Marshfield. He was one of three borothers, and they were called 'Men of Kent,' from England. He came to Scituate at that portion called 'Tow Mile' tract, now known as North Marshfield, in 1628. His farm extended both sides of North River, part of it being on 'Gravelly beach’.
Nathaniel came in the Hercules in 1635 from Sandwich, in Co. Kent, being one of an old family at Tenterden, near Cranbrook, in that shire, bringing wife Lydia, seven children and seven servants. He may have visited our country before and went home to bring his household; but it does not appear by any facts. He settled in Scituate. In May 1637, with his friend Hatherly, he was appointed by Plymouth Colony to settle the bounds between it and the Massachusetts Colony. He was ruling elder in the church and died 1641, the inventory being of 31 July, and his will of 25 May preceding in that year. It names his wife Lydia, perhaps daughter of Thomas Bourne of Marshfield, yet married in England to which he gives his home at Tenterden, all the seven children Joseph; Thomas, b. a. 1621; Mary, the w. of Thomas Lapham, m. 13 Mar. 1637; Sarah, the w. of George Sutton; Judith; Lydia; and Stephen; also two servants who should serve his eldest son..
——
All the children of Nathaniel and Lydia Tilden were born in England, five dying there prior to the family's departure. The children were Thomas, who died young; Mary, who married Thomas Lapham; Joseph, who died young; Sarah, who married George Sutton; Joseph, who married Alice or Elizabeth Twisden; Stephen, who died young; Thomas, who married Elizabeth (Bourne) Waterman; Judith, who married Abraham Preble; Winifred, who died young; Lydia, who died young; Lydia, who married Richard Garrett; and Stephen, who married Hannah Little. Mary and Sarah were married on the same day, 13 March 1636/37 (NEHGR 9:286), and their husbands were Tilden's servants. ??After his death, his widow Lydia married Timothy Hatherly. Elizabeth French shows in NEHGR 70:256 that Lydia (Huckstep) (Tilden) Hatherly was a cousin of Thomas Hatch, q.v., who also came to New England in the Hercules and settled at Scituate. ??Tilden was of the gentry and addressed as "Mr.," and he was one of the wealthier Scituate residents. He dated his will 25 May 1641, inventory 31 July 1641, and he named his wife Lydia and his children Stephen; Lydia; Joseph; Thomas; Judith; Mary, the wife of Thomas Lapham; and Sarah, the wife of George Sutton; and he also mentioned his two indentured servants, Edward Jenkins and Edward Tarte (MD 3:220).
——
Nathaniel Tilden‘s descendants flourished in America, such as the Hon Samuel Jones Tilden, who served as Governor of New York State and was a presidential candidate (Democrat) in 1875.

BALDWIN I, OF FLANDERS (Anacher Great Forester), the Forester called "Iron Arm" on account of his great strength, some say on account of his being constantly in armor. He married the Princess Judith, daughter of Charles, “the Bald,” King of Aguitenia and Neustria, or in other words the greater part of modern France. He built castles at Bruges and Ghent to defend the country against the Normans. He died at Arras in 877«s106»

BALDWIN II, OF FLANDERS (Baldwin I, Anacher Great Forester), the Forester, married the Princess Alfrith, daughter of Alfred the Great, King of England. He made war against Endes, Count of Paris, who usurped the French crown and defeated him. He died in 919.
——
Baldwin II, nicknamed Calvus (the Bald), was the second Count of Flanders. He was also hereditary abbot of St. Bertin from 892 till his death. He was the son of Baldwin I of Flanders and Judith, a daughter of Charles the Bald.
The early years of Baldwin's rule were marked by a series of devastating Viking raids. Little north of the Somme was untouched. Baldwin recovered, building new fortresses and improving city walls, and taking over abandoned property, so that in the end he held far more territory, and held it more strongly, than had his father. He also took advantage of the conflicts between Charles the Simple and Odo, Count of Paris, to take over the Ternois and the Boulonnias.
In 884 Baldwin married Ælfthryth (Ælfthryth, Elftrude, Elfrida), a daughter of King Alfred the Great of England. The marriage was motivated by the common Flemish-English opposition to the Vikings, and was the start of an alliance that was a mainstay of Flemish policy for centuries to come.
In 900, he tried to curb the power of Archbishop Fulk of Rheims by assassinating him, but he was excommunicated by Pope Benedict IV.
He died at Blandinberg and was succeeded by his eldest son Arnulf I of Flanders. His younger son Adalulf was (the first) count of Boulogne. His illegitimate son Albert was bishop of Paris.

Battle of Baton Rouge
Estimated Casualties: 849 total (US 371; CS 478)
In an attempt to regain control of the state, Confederates wished to recapture the capital at Baton Rouge. Maj. Gen. John C. Breckinridge planned a combined land/water expedition with his corps and CSS Ram Arkansas. Advancing west from Camp Moore, the Confederate land forces, coming from the east, were only ten miles away on August 4. They reached the outskirts of the capital early in the morning, formed for an attack in two divisions, and began to drive back each Union unit they encountered. Then, Union gunboats in the river began shelling the Confederates. The Arkansas could have neutralized the Union gunboats, but her engines failed and she did not participate in the battle. Federal land forces, in the meantime, fell back to a more defensible line, and the Union commander, Brig. Gen. Thomas Williams, was killed soon after. The new commander, Col. Thomas W. Cahill, ordered a retreat to a prepared defensive line nearer the river and within the gunboats’ protection. Rebels assailed the new line, but finally the Federals forced them to retire. The next day the Arkansas’s engines failed again as she closed on the Union gunboats; she was blown up and scuttled by her crew. The Confederates failed to recapture the state capital.«s77»

Battle of Manila Bay (May 1, 1898), defeat of the Spanish Pacific fleet by the U.S. Navy, resulting in the fall of the Philippines and contributing to the final U.S. victory in the Spanish–American War. After the United States had declared war (April 25), its Asiatic squadron was ordered from Hong Kong to “capture or destroy the Spanish fleet” then in Philippine waters. The U.S. Navy was well trained and well supplied, largely through the energetic efforts of the young assistant secretary of the Navy, Theodore Roosevelt, who had selected Commo. George Dewey for the command of the Asiatic squadron. In one morning’s engagement (May 1), the guns of Dewey’s squadron completely destroyed the Spanish ships anchored in Manila Bay.

After the war, speculation and controversy arose when many believed the battle had been intended as a bloodless contest between the U.S. and Spain. Jaudenes had agreed to surrender the city but not without an American show of force, as the Spanish wanted to save themselves the humiliation of capitulating without the appearance of a battle. Another major reason why Jaudenes was anxious to surrender to the Americans was to prevent the city from falling to the Filipinos. Jaudenes feared that the Spanish populace would be dealt with mercilessly and knew that surrendering to the U.S. would provide him with the protection of a legitimate government. The U.S. was also anxious to keep the city from Aguinaldo's control. With a staged battle, both sides felt the city could change hands without the Filipinos being involved. However, by August 13 Aguinaldo was well aware of the secret deal between Jaudenes and Dewey, and on August 13 his Filipino troops attacked along their entire perimeter, not just in the American sector. He knew that only by participating in the attack and securing a place at the negotiating table would he be able to advance the cause of Filipino independence. In the end, the battle for Manila on August 13 was not bloodless; five Americans lost their lives and 43 were wounded. Spanish and Filipino casualties are unknown.

Beard. There were two of this name. (two brothers of course). One lived at Oyster River, the other at Dover Neck. The Dover Neck one, Thomas, was born 1608 (as by depsosition) admitted freeman in Mass. 10 May, 1643; was taxed at Dover Neck 1648, and for many years after. His will was dated 11 Dec 1768, proved 25 Mar, 1679; he gave property to his wife Marie, to daughters Marie, Martha, (Br---) Elizabeth (Watson), and to son Thomas. William of O.R. sold his premises there, 16 Jun 1640, to Francis Matthews, but continued to live at O.R. He was taxed 1648-1672; selectman 1660, &c. He was the “good old man named Beard,” who was killed at O.R. 1675. His inventory was entered 2 Mar, 1677-8; wife Elizabeth. He appears to have had a son Jospeh, (we are not sure) who lived at O.R. and owned Beard’s Garrison House, which was destroyed in the Indian attack of 1694. This Jospeh was born 1655, and was dead in 1704, leaving a widow, Esther. We may have met the name in the vicinity within a short time, but spelt Bierd.

Beatrice, born c. 880 was the daughter of Herbert I, Count of Vermandois. She was also the sister of Herbert II, Count of Vermandois, and was a descendant in the male line of Charlemagne through King Bernard of Italy. Through her marriage to Robert I, she was an ancestress of the Capetian dynasty. On 15 June 923 her husband Robert was killed at the Battle of Soissons shortly after which their son Hugh was offered the crown but refused.

Before this generation, the family did not have a consistent surname. Therefore, Thomas is the earliest person with this name.
——
In the time of William the Conqueror, Adderbury was called Edburgbcrie, a name strikingly suggestive of its having an origin closely identified with the Ead or Ed family.
——
THE name Edson is of Anglo-Saxon origin. It is a com-
bination of two words : Ed, a variation of the spelling
of the ancient term Ead ; and son, an explanatory suffix,
establishing the relationship of a child to a parent known
as Ed.

Ead, as an Anglo-Saxon noun, signifies wealth, prosper-
ity, happiness, joy, or bliss. In the early poetical com-
positions of the Anglo-Saxons, ead is the initial syllable of
such compounds as eadfuma, author of prosperity; cad-
giefa, giver of prosperity; eadluje, love; and eadwela,
riches. It has similar precedence in compound names, as
is shown in Eadmund, a protector of riches; Eadweard, a
guardian of property ; and Eadivin, a gainer of happiness.
——
The invasion and occupation by the Saxons of that
part of Britain, now known as Oxfordshire, began about the
end of the sixth century. In the ninth, the fierce con-
flicts between the Saxons made it the scene of many bloody
struggles for the possession of its territory. The city of
Oxford, it is said, was four times reduced to ashes during
the time of this warfare.
——
Of the ancient church records there is now neither trace
nor tradition. Hence there are no available means by
which to elicit any knowledge of the names of the wor-
shippers who congregated beneath the high-vaulted roof of
the stately sanctuary during the first four centuries of its
existence.

Moreover, it should be remembered that searches for
data to determine lines of descent from English ancestors
cannot be prosecuted at the present time with any measure
of success farther back than the century preceding that in
which Thomas Edson had his birth, who probably was
born about twelve years before the discovery of America
by Columbus. As Cussans asseverates, "except in a few
rare instances, it is utterly impossible to trace a pedigree
beyond the time of Richard the Second," (1377-1399).
——
One of the landed gentry of Adderbury, contemporary
with Thomas Edson, was John Bustard, whose immediate
ancestors were descendants of the ancient family of Bus-
tard, of Nether-Ex, in Devonshire.

I am beginning to research my background and there were some similarities between what I know and what has been posted here. Maybe there is a link. My father is Lloyd Dame, Jr. who was born and raised in Reading, MA. He was the only child of Lloyd Sr. and Hazel (Marston). Lloyd Sr. worked for the Boston and Maine Railroad for 40+ years. He was the s/o John Dame (married to a Benton but not sure of her first name) and he had 3 brothers Edward, Harold and James. John Dame was a mortician in Concord, NH around 1900. Does any of this seem to connect based on your research?

Benedict Arnold (14 Jan 1741 [O.S. 03 Jan 1740] – 14 Jun 1801) was a general during the American Revolutionary War who originally fought for the American Continental Army but defected to the British Army. While an American general, he obtained command of the fortifications at West Point, New York (future site of the U.S. Military Academy after 1802), overlooking the cliffs at the Hudson River (upriver from British- occupied New York City), and planned to surrender it to the British forces. After the plan was exposed in September 1780, he was commissioned into the British Army as a brigadier general.
