| 9 | | Great Migration: Alice (Freeman) Tompson (1595-1660) Alice is unusual in that she migrated as a widow with at least two of her daughters (including Mary, our ancestor) after her first husband John Tompson (our ancestor) died in 1626. Alice is also a known "Gateway" ancestor to royalty. We are descended from Alice and John through the Wright (Tucker) line. | ||

| 27 | | Wikipedia: Henry Adams (1583-1646) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Adams_(farmer) Henry and Edith "Rosamund" (Squire) Adams emigrated to Braintree, Massachusetts in 1632 or 33. They are the emigrant ancestors of U.S. Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams and 2nd great grandparents of U.S. Founding Father Samuel Adams. We are descended from Henry and Edith through the Laviolette (DeRochemont) line. I was accepted as a member of DAR after documenting our lineage to Ebenezer Adams, grandson of Joseph Adams, uncle of President John Adams. This makes President John Adams my 1st cousin 9X removed, John Quincy my 2nd cousin 8x removed, and Samuel Adams my 1st cousin 10X removed.

| 31 | | WikiTree Edward Gilman (1587-1655) Edward, his wife Mary (Clark) Gilman, their children, and three servants were part of a group of 133 settlers who sailed in May 1638 on the ship "Diligent" from Ipswich, England, to Hingham, Massachusetts. By 1641, Edward was granted a large tract of land in Seekonk, later known as Rehoboth, by the Plymouth colony and is also prominent in the Ipswich town records. His estate, valued at 300 English pounds in 1643, reflected his prosperity. Edward Jr., one of Edward's sons, followed in his father's footsteps but faced hardships, losing his wife and leaving his infant son in the care of his parents. Edward Jr. then moved to Exeter, NH, to pursue the mill business, marking him as the first Gilman settler in New Hampshire and a pioneer in manufacturing. Tragically, Edward Jr. was lost at sea in 1657 while seeking additional machinery for his mill in England. Back in Hingham, Edward Sr., alongside his sons John and Moses, moved to Exeter and established themselves firmly in the community. Edward and Mary Gilman's New Hampshire descendants served in the New Hampshire General Court and as judges, doctors, ministers, and military officers, and they played a crucial role in New Hampshire during the American Revolutionary War. We are descended from Edward and Mary (Clark) Gilman through two of their sons. Through John we are descended through the Laviolette (DeRochemont) and Wright (Tucker) lines and through Moses we are descended through the Laviolette (DeRochemont) line. | ||
| 32 | | WikiTree: Abraham Conley (1610-1674) No GM profile, but Abraham emigrated to New England before 1639, and purchased a house and six acres in Kittery from John Ugrove on 5 January 1638/9 | ||
| 33 | | WikiTree: Abraham Shaw (1585-1638) Abraham and Bridget (Best) Shaw and their children emigrated to America in 1636 on the Anne. When they first came to America, they went to Watertown, MA; their house was burned down in October 1636, whereupon they moved to Dedham. Abraham was the owner of coal mines in Halifax, Yorkshire, England, where they had come from, and in 1637, shortly before his death, he was given a permit to erect a coal mill. Bridget had died sometime between 1636 and 1638 as well, leaving their six children, including our ancestor Susannah, their oldest, aged 21 and already married by then, orphaned. Their other children were 20, 17, 10, 8, and 6. We are descended through the Laviolette (DeRochemont-Shorey) line.
| ||
| 34 | | WikiTree: Abraham Temple (1597-1639) Very little is known about Abraham and Abigail Margaret (Gifford) Temple. They were married before 1623 in England and had 5 children. They were in Salem in 1636 where he was granted ten acres, a relatively small grant. Robert, our ancestor, was the only one of their children born in America. Abraham dropped out of public records after 1639, so it is likely he had died. Abigail Margaret died sometime after 1651. We are descended through the Wright (Tucker) line. | ||
| 35 | | WikiTree: Alexander Shapleigh (1575-1650) We have lines of descent from Alexander Shapleigh and his wife Lucy (maiden name unknown) on both the Laviolette (DeRochemont) and Wright (Tucker) lines. Alexander was a prominent figure in maritime trade, working as a ship's master or captain. The first records were in 1610, when the pirate Robert Stephens seized his ship, the Restitution of Dartmouth (England). As a merchant based in Dartmouth/Kingswear, Alexander owned and operated several ships, including the Blessing, Gift of God, William & John, Benediction, Gods Meaning, Golden Cat, Prosperous, and The Desire of Totneys. His trade ventures extended to Newfoundland and Portugal, indicating his involvement in the lucrative salted cod trade. This would have involved taking salt from Portugal to the cod fishing ports on the coast of Canada and northern New England and returning with barrels of salted cod for sale in the European markets. He moved to New England sometime before 1640.Despite some ambiguity in records from 1643-1647, Alexander owned property in both England and New England. His acquisitions in New England, facilitated by his grandson John Treworgye, included 500 acres at Kittery Point and land by Sturgeon Creek in present-day Eliot, Maine. He constructed the first house on Kittery Point. There are some records that say that the town’s name is derived from Kittery Court, the family home of Alexander Shapleigh in Kingswear, England.

| 36 | | WikiTree: Anthony Brackett (1613-1691) Anthony migrated prior to 1640 and probably about 1630; his origins are unknown. Some sources say he was possibly from Scotland. His wife Eleanor's last name is unknown, although some sources indicate she may have been a Price, sister of Joan Price married to George Cleeve. There was much tragedy in the Brackett family, with two sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren killed or taken captive in Indian raids in the Casco Bay area of what was to become Maine. Then, on September 29, 1691, in what is now Rye, New Hampshire, a group of about forty Native Americans came down the coast from York, Maine and attacked. Ten settlers were killed in the marsh while cutting hay, three were killed when their homes were burned, and seven were captured and taken to Canada. The victims were primarily from the Brackett and Rand families. Anthony Brackett and his wife Eleanor, were killed along with several of their children and grandchildren. His home was also burned in the raid. We are descended from Anthony and Eleanor through the Laviolette ((DeRochemont-Shorey) line. | ||
| 37 | | WikiTree: Balthazar Willix (1595-1651) Balthazar was in Exeter by late 1639, and participated in the division of land there in December 1639. His wife (our ancestor), Hannah (maiden name unknown, though possibly Coffin) was brutally murdered in 1648 and Balthazar remarried and moved to Salisbury, where he died. His daughters, including our ancestor Hazelponi, were servants before they were married. Hazelelpon was thei servant of Henry Waltham of Weymouth. We are descended on the Laviolette (DeRochemont) line.
| ||
| 38 | | WikiTree: Benjamin Butterfield (1606-1688) Benjamin and Anne (maiden name unknown) Butterfield migrated to America where they are first found in Charlestown in 1638 and had moved to Woburn by 1643. He was one of thirty-two men who subscribed to the founding document at Woburn, and was made a freeman there on May 10, 1643. In 1653/4, he joined 29 others in petitioning to create what would become Chelmsford. His home and farm were located in what is now Lowell, Massachusetts. We are descended through their youngest son, Joseph, through the Wright (Tucker) line. | ||
| 39 | | WikiTree: Darby Fields (1610-1651) Darby Field, likely originating from Ireland based on Y-DNA from direct male descendants, married Agnes (maiden name unknown) around 1630 and they came to New England in 1636, living first in Boston before moving to Durham by 1638. Darby is an interesting character! He operated a ferry service between Durham Point and Newington, navigating across Little Bay. Field was recognized for his linguistic skills, particularly as a translator for Native American languages. In 1642, his adventurous spirit led him to be the pioneer European to climb Mt. Washington, situated in New Hampshire's White Mountains, a venture driven by his quest for minerals, specifically diamonds. However, he only found quartz, leading to profound disappointment. His ensuing erratic behavior and mental health issues resulted in his confinement for the safety of himself and others. A court ruling mandated that Strawberry Bank, New Hampshire (later known as Portsmouth), should contribute financially to the costs associated with his detention and care. Mt. Field, which stands at 4,326 feet within the White Mountains' Willey Range and adjacent to Crawford Notch, is named in honor of Darby Field. We are descended from Darby and Agnes through the Laviolette (DeRochemont) line.

| 40 | | WikiTree: Edmund Littlfield (1592-1661) Edmund came first to Boston arriving on 26 May 1636 with his two oldest sons (one was our ancestor Francis). Ship's passage for Annis (Auston) Littlefield and six children on The Bevis of Hampton on May second 1638. Edmund is known as the "father of Wells." By 1641 Edward Littlefield established a permanent home, sawmill and gristmill at the site of the Webhannet River Falls. At his death in 1661, Edmund Littlefield was one of the most prosperous men in Wells in terms of land and mill privileges. He was survived by more than forty grandchildren. We are descended on the Wright (Tucker) side through a total of 10 separate lines branching from two sons: Francis and John.
| ||
| 41 | | WikiTree: Edward Bates (1606-1686) There are many trees online that are confused between two Edward Bates. Our Edward Bates married Susannah Putnam in Beachampton, Buckinghamshire, England in 1631 and migrated in about 1638, qualifying him as a Great Migration immigrant. However, the GM profile is for the other Edward Bates. Edward and Susannah migrated to New England about 1638, and Edward became a Freeman in Massachusetts on 13 Mar 1638/9. We are descended from this couple through the Laviolette (DeRochement/Shorey) line. | ||
| 42 | | WikiTree: Edward French (1595-1674) Edward and Ann (Worcester) French were in Ipswich by 1637. Edward was a tailor. In 1640 they moved to Salisbury and are considered among the founders of the town. Ann was a sister of Reverend William Worcester, the first minister of Salisbury, We are descended from Edward and Ann through the Wright (Tucker) line. | ||
| 43 | | WikiTree: Edward Kibbe (1611-1694) Edward and Mary (Partridge) Kibbe immigrated in 1640 to the Muddy River, near Brookline, Massachusetts, where he established a sawmill. They had 14 children together, all born in the colonies. In 1662 he was appointed Clerk of Market, an office created probably to give the Muddy River district representation in Boston markets. From 1666 to 1683, he served intermittently as Surveyor of Highways. In 1674, he and Mary were listed as contributors to the fund for the second meeting house in Roxbury, Massachusetts. We are descended from Edward and Mary through the Wright (Tucker) line.
| ||
| 44 | | WikiTree: Edward Payson (1613-1689) Edward Payson arrived in Roxbury in 1634 based on admission to Roxbury church. His forst wife, Anne, died in 1641, just 8 days after the birth of their first child. In 1642, he married Mary Eliot in Roxbury. While an exact immigration date has not been found for her, Mary and six of her siblings were all Puritan Great Migration immigrants. One of her brothers was Reverend John Eliot, missionary to the American Indians known as "The Indian Apostle." We are descended from Edward and Mary through the Wright (Tucker) line, from the daughter Ann who married Benjamin Tucker.
| ||
| 45 | | WikiTree: Edward Woodman (1606-1692) Edward and Joanna (possiby Salway) Woodman came to New England in 1635, and together with Archelaus, his younger half brother, settled in Newbury, Massachusetts. Edward Woodman was one of the ninety one grantees who settled Newbury and one of fifteen of that number who was entitled to be called "Mr".He served as executive officer or selectman from the beginnings of Newbury and for several years after.He owned extensive lands including a house lot with 4 acres, a house lot with 1 acre, 45 acres field and upland meadow, 20 acres of salt marsh, a 4 acre planting lot, as well as several other parcels of upland, salt and fresh marsh and meadow. These additional parcels ranged from a few acres, to 300 and 500 acre parcels. We are descended from Edward and Joanna on the Laviolette (DeRochemont) side.
| ||
| 46 | | WikiTree: Enoch Hunt (1588-1653) Enoch was an early settler in Rhode Island and was admitted a freeman in Newport in 1638. He was a blacksmith by trade. He removed to Weymouth, Mass., where he was living in 1640. The widow Dorothy Barker married Enoch in Weymouth in 1639. Barker is believed to be the name of her unknown first husband, not her maiden name. We are descended from Enoch and Dorothy through the Laviolette (Shorey) line.
| ||
| 47 | | WikiTree: Francis Littlefield (1619-1712) Francis came first to Boston arriving on 26 May 1636 with his father and brother. He married Jane Hill sometime prior to Dec 14, 1646 when their only daughter Mary (or ancestor) was born. Sadly, Jane died just 6 days later on Dec 20, 1646, presumably from childbirth complications. John remarried and fathered 11 more children with his second wife. He was an innkeeper in Wells where his father built a mill. The family was considered wealthy for the times. We are descended from Francis and Mary through our Wright (Tucker) line.
| ||
| 48 | | WikiTree: Garrett Church (1611-1685) Very little is known about Garrett Church and his wife Sarah (unknown maiden name). He was in New England by 1633 and lived in Watertown. Garrett was described as a planter and he and Sarah had 7 children. We are descended on the Wright (Tucker) side. | ||
| 49 | | WikiTree: George Wheeler (1605-1687) In about 1638 George and Elizabeth (Penn) Wheeler emigrated to America with 3 children, settling in Concord. They had 5 more children born in America. He appears to have been a person of some influence, and his name appears often on town records. He was selectman in 1660. His house lot of 11 acres was at the (present) corner of Main and Walden Streets, and in conjunction with Capt. Timothy Wheeler, who was probably his brother or nephew, he owned a large amount of land in the center of the town including the original part of what is now The Colonial Inn in Concord. He also had land near the "frog-ponds" and at Walden Pond, and at Nut Meadow Brook. We are descended from George and Elizabeth through the Wright (Tucker) side. | ||
| 50 | | WikiTree: Hatevil Nutter (1603-1675) Hatevil Nutter, originally from Warwickshire, England was in Dover by 1637 when he purchased property, described as being east of Fore River, west of High Street. It is unknown whether Hatevil married Anne Ayers in England or once he was in Dover. Together they had four children and we are descnded on the Laviolette (DeRochemont) side through their son Anthony and also their daughter Mary. In 1647 Hatevil made an agreement with the selectmen of the town to set up a sawmill on the Lamprey River. He was one of the wealthy men of the colony and was largely engaged in the lumber business and in ship building. As an early Elder of Dover's First Church, organized in November 1638, Hatevil was a fervent supporter of the church. Hatevil became known for his strong opposition to the Quaker missionaries Anna Coleman, Mary Tomkins, and Alice Ambrose in 1662, who he believed were spreading harmful teachings. He played a role in their persecution, advocating for their forced removal from Dover. The treatment of these Quaker women was brutal. Richard Waldron, the deputy, ordered them to be stripped, tied to a cart, and whipped through several towns as a punishment for their beliefs. This was done in front of the meeting house, with Hatevil Nutter present, urging on the constables. The account of their suffering is vividly described, highlighting the harshness and cruelty of their persecution. Despite this, the Quaker women endured and sang amidst their pain, astonishing those who watched. This event didn't deter the Quakers. They eventually returned to Dover and successfully established a Quaker church. Over time, a significant portion of Dover's population converted to Quakerism
