Includes NotesNotes for James Nute:
Immigrant

Spelled his name 'Newte' which corresponds with the English surname born by a family of distinction living in Teverton, Devonshire, in the reign of Elizabeth. The members of this English family were loyalists during the civil war and many were clergymen in the Church of England in the 17th and 18th centuries. James came to Portsmouth in 1631, one of the company of planters, stewards and servants sent by Capt. John Mason to settle his patent. James signed the combination in Dover 1640; gr. jury 1643,1651; selectman 1660. He bought lots 9 and 10 before 1648 and was given 6 acres in Cochecho Marsh on the upperside of Garrison Hill in Dover. On the tax lists of Dover 1648-1675. He had a land grant at Back River and bought another from John Newgrove. Moved to the Back River area about 1661 and was in court for absence from church and for entertaining Quakers, for which he was fined. His wife Sarah was called a 'base jade' by William Storer in 1652. James and Sarah Nute deeded homestead to son Abraham and other land to son James in 1671, both deeds to take effect after the elder Nutes' deaths. his grave stone stands in the fam. grave yard, ' Mr J Nute ae 78.' . The Back River farm remained in continuous possession of his descendants until at least 1923.

------------------------------------------------

James Nute came to America from Tiverton, in the County of Devonshire, England. He arrived with his brother, John, in 1631 under the auspices of Captain John Mason to settle his Laconia Patent at Dover Neck, NH. He signed the Dover Combination, now in the English Archives in London, England, on 20 Oct 1640. He served on the Grand Jury in 1643 and served as Selectman of Dover in 1659. He signed his name James Newte. His wife's name was Sarah. In the "Quaker Families" it is recorded that James Nute and his wife and son were among those fined in 1663 for absenting themselves from official worship in order to be with Quakers. They were absent on 25 Sundays and in addition had committed the offense of entertaining Quakers for four hours in one day. In the "History of Strafford County" it is recorded that it was about 1650 that James Nute bought lots numbers 9 and 10 from the grantees Barthey Smeg and John Ugrove, these lots being south of lot number 11, owned by Deacon John Dam. James is buried in the family plot on the west bank of Back River (Bellemy River?) with his daughter, Martha, and her husband, William Dam. James was born 1612, died 1698.

from Piscataqua Pioneers (pgs. 137-8)

NUTE, JAMES. He was one of the party of "stewards and servants" sent over by Capt. John Mason between 1630 and 1634, to manage the mills and settlement at "Great Works," South Berwick, which was commenced about 1630. His name is spelled "Newt" in the list of men. Just what part of the work he engaged in is not known or how long he remained there. He finally crossed the river and became an early settler in Dover, where he could get all the land he wanted, as he could not do under the lordship of Capt. Mason, who would not sell his land, but only lease it. The list of names of the men in whose company Mr. Nute came over, can be found on page 26 of Stackpole's History of Old Kittery.
Probably he joined the Dover Neck settlement sometime in 1634, or '35. It is certain he was there in 1640, as he signed the "Combination" agreement for good government in that year. His residence was on Low street until about 1661, when he removed to the Back River District, having purchased land which has remained in possession of the Nute family to the present time (1918). It is one of the best farms in that section of Dover, He was alive there in 1691, but just what year he died is not known, nor the date of his birth, but probably he was a young man of twenty-five years, and lived to pass the four score mark, as several of his descendants have done on that farm. His wife's name is not known, but she may have been one of the twenty-two young women who came over in the ship "Pied-Cow," in 1634 and landed at "Cow Cove."

James Nute's name appears in the town records,in business affairs, many times, showing that he was a citizen of good standing. The Court records, however, show that he was at one time "presented for abusing the Town Clerk (Pomfrett) in saying he was a deceitful man and had a deceitful heart." The Court reprimanded him and warned him not to commit such an offense again, and placed him under bonds to keep the peace with the clerk. He was one of the Selectmen in 1659 and in 1660. He served on the Grand Jury several times. He officiated in other minor offices, like a good citizen.

After he moved across the Back River it was much further to go to attend meetings on the Lord's Day. His home on The Neck was near the meeting house, and he and his family were regular attendants. So it came to pass that he became somewhat negligent in crossing the river on Sunday. The result was that he was "Presented in court (in 1662) for being absent twenty139 six days from church meetings, and for entertaining the Quaker missionaries four hours." He was admonished for absence from meetings, and fined according to law, forty shillings per hour.

NUTE (NEWTE), James (I9748)
 
1008 James Nute, an early settler in Dover, New Hampshire, was part of the group of "stewards and servants" sent by Captain John Mason to manage the mills and settlement at "Great Works," South Berwick, around 1630. His exact role in this endeavor is unclear, but he eventually moved to Dover, likely around 1634 or 1635, and was definitely there by 1640, as evidenced by his signing of the "Combination" agreement for good governance.

In Dover, Nute initially resided on Low Street before moving to the Back River District around 1661, where he purchased land that remained in his family for generations. This farm became one of the best in the area. While his birth year is unknown, he was probably around 25 when he arrived in America and likely lived into his eighties. The last name of his wife Sarah is not recorded, but she might have been one of the women who arrived on the ship "Pied-Cow" in 1634.

Nute was an active and respected member of the Dover community, serving as a Selectman in 1659 and 1660 and frequently on the Grand Jury. However, he once faced reprimand and a warning from the court for insulting the Town Clerk. His religious commitment waned after moving across the Back River, leading to his court presentation in 1662 for missing church services and entertaining Quaker missionaries, resulting in a fine.

James Nute had at least three children: James (b. 1643), who lived on the family farm and likely died around 1691; Abraham (b. 1647), who was alive in 1724; and Martha (b. 1653), who married William Dam and lived in the William Dam garrison. James Nute's tombstone, restored in 1968, indicates he was born in 1613, arrived in Portsmouth in 1631, settled in Dover in 1640, and was killed by Native Americans in 1691. The family plot, located on the west bank of the Back River (Bellamy River Wildlife Management Area), also includes other family members.

1011 Jean Cloutier, baptized on May 13, 1620, in the church of Saint-Jean de Mortagne in Perche, France, was the son of Zacharie Cloutier and Sainte Dupont. His journey to New France began early in life when he arrived in Quebec on June 4, 1634, with his father. The rest of the family, including his mother and siblings Louise, Charles, and Anne, joined them in 1635 or 1636.

Marie Martin, born in 1635, was the daughter of Abraham Martin dit l'Écossais (after whom the Plains of Abraham are named) and Marguerite Langlois. She was born into one of the earliest French families in Quebec, her parents having arrived in the colony around 1620.

On January 21, 1648, Jean Cloutier, at 27 years old, married Marie Martin, who was only 12 at the time. Their marriage contract, drawn up by notary Claude Lecoustre on December 27, 1647, preceded their wedding ceremony at Notre-Dame de Québec. This union, though shocking by modern standards, was not uncommon in the early days of New France, where the need to establish families and populate the colony often led to marriages between older men and very young women.

Jean and Marie settled in Château-Richer on the Côte de Beaupré. Jean officially received his land concession on July 16, 1652, though his name appears on Jean Bourdon's 1641 map of the Côte de Beaupré. The 1680 map of Château-Richer shows their land, numbered 68, located just east of Sault à la Puce, with a flour mill near the river.

Over their long marriage, Jean and Marie had fourteen children:

An unnamed child (1650-1650)
Jean (1652-1709)
Marie (1655-1713)
Marguerite (1656-1727)
Louise (c.1657-1733)
Anne (1659-1714)
Sainte (c.1661-1725)
Joseph (1663-1671)
Pierre-Paul (1665-1665)
Pierre (1667-1703)
Françoise (1669-1721)
Angélique-Geneviève (1672-1699)
Agnès (1673-1761)
Marie-Madeleine (1676-1699)

Jean Cloutier was confirmed in the Catholic faith on February 2, 1660, at Château-Richer by Bishop Laval, alongside his parents. As a master carpenter, Jean played an important role in the construction and development of the growing settlement.

The family appears in several censuses, providing snapshots of their life over the years:

In 1666, Jean is listed as a 47-year-old carpenter with six children and a domestic servant.
The 1667 census shows the family with eight children, 12 head of cattle, and 22 arpents of cultivated land.

By 1681, Jean is 60 years old, with seven children still at home, 2 guns, 14 head of cattle, and 15 arpents under cultivation.

Jean Cloutier died suddenly on October 16, 1690, and was buried the same day in the cemetery of La Visitation-de-la-Bienheureuse-Vierge-Marie parish in Château-Richer. The burial record states he was 79 years old, though this appears to be an overestimation based on his baptismal record.
Marie Martin survived her husband by many years, though her exact date of death is not provided in the given information.

MARTIN DIT L'ECOSSAIS, Marie (I6282)
 
1013 Jean Côté, born around 1605 in Perche, France, was among the early settlers recruited by Robert Giffard to help establish the colony of New France. He arrived in Quebec on July 20, 1635, as part of the wave of Percheron immigration that would shape the future of French Canada.

Anne Martin, born on March 23, 1614, in La Rochelle, Charente-Maritime, France is often attributed as the daughter of Abraham Martin, but there is no evidence that this is true.

Jean and Anne's paths crossed in the summer of 1635, and they were married on November 17, 1635. The ceremony, performed by Jesuit priest Charles Lalemant, took place at the home of Robert Giffard, with Guillaume Couillard and Giffard himself serving as witnesses. This union would prove to be one of the foundational marriages of French-Canadian society.

The young couple's early years were shaped by the realities of colonial life. In 1636, Governor Montmagny granted them an arpent of frontage on la Grande-Allée near Quebec, while Giffard provided them with land in Beauport. However, the threat of Iroquois raids made them hesitant to settle their Beauport concession immediately. Instead, they initially rented a small parcel of land from Noël Langlois, Anne's step-uncle, to be closer to other settlers for mutual protection.

Jean built a cabin on this rented land and began farming. Over time, they developed their properties, including a house in Upper Town, Quebec. Jean was known to be a diligent farmer and businessman, selling hay and engaging in various transactions with other settlers.

Throughout their lives, Jean and Anne were active members of the growing colony. They had nine children together, eight of whom survived to adulthood:

Louis (1636-1669)
Simone (1637-c.1700)
Martin (1639-1710)
Mathieu (1642-1710)
Jean (1644-1722)
Jean-Noël (1646-1701)
Marie (1648-1648)
Louise (1650-?)

These children would go on to play significant roles in the development of New France, with their descendants spreading throughout the colony and beyond.

Jean Côté passed away on March 28, 1661, in his home in Quebec City. He was buried in the church of Notre-Dame de Québec, an honor that reflected his status in the community. Anne survived him by more than two decades, continuing to manage their affairs and see to the establishment of their children. She died on December 4, 1684, and was also buried in Quebec City.

Jean spent 3 years of indenture at Trois-Rivieres and then moved to Beauport. On 11 Aug 1654, Jean bought land in the Bourg de Fargy section of Beauport. In 1660, he bought part of the arriere-fief of Dubuisson from Claude Guyon. CRETE, Jean I (I13022)

1017 Jean Pelletier, born on June 12, 1627, in Tourouvre, Perche, France, and Anne Langlois, born on September 2, 1637, in Quebec, New France, were two individuals whose lives intertwined to create a lasting legacy in early French-Canadian history.

Jean, the son of Guillaume Pelletier and Michelle Mabille, migrated to New France in 1641 at the tender age of 14 with his parents and uncle. This move was part of the significant Percheron emigration that played a crucial role in populating the fledgling colony. Upon arrival, Jean quickly adapted to life in the New World, briefly serving as a donné (lay helper) to the Jesuits in 1646, possibly traveling as far as Fort Sainte-Marie in Huron territory.

Anne Langlois was born in Quebec to Noël Langlois and Françoise Grenier (or Garnier), making her one of the first children born to French settlers in the colony. Her baptism on September 2, 1637, was witnessed by notable figures in early Quebec society, including François Bellanger and Anne Cloutier.
The couple's story takes an interesting turn with their marriage. They first announced their intention to marry in 1647 when Jean was 20 and Anne merely 9 years old. This led to a postponement until Anne reached the canonical age of 12. They were finally wed on November 9, 1649, in the home of Robert Giffard in Beauport, with Jean aged 22 and Anne 12.

Jean and Anne's life together was marked by frequent moves and the challenges of establishing a home in the wilderness of New France. They initially settled in Beauport before moving to Île d'Orléans in the mid-1660s. Later, they lived briefly on Île-aux-Oies and Île-aux-Grues before finally settling in Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies around 1678, where Jean was one of the first two colonists.

Throughout their marriage, Jean worked as a land-clearer, carpenter, and sawyer. He engaged in various business ventures, including selling wooden planks to Quebec merchants. The couple faced the dangers of frontier life, with Jean participating in the defense of Rivière-Ouelle against William Phips's attack in 1690.

Jean and Anne had nine children together between 1654 and 1674:

Noël (1654-1712)
Anne (1656-c.1687-1691)
René (1659-1713)

Marie Delphine (1666-1666)
Marie (1667-1725)
Charles (1671-1748)
Marie Charlotte (1674-1699)

Their children went on to establish their own families, contributing significantly to the growth of the French-Canadian population.

Jean Pelletier passed away on February 24, 1698, at the age of 70, in Rivière-Ouelle. Anne Langlois survived him by several years, dying on March 16, 1704, at the age of 66, also in Rivière-Ouelle.

Mary Canney was born in 1636 in Dover Neck, Strafford Co., N.H., and died there on July 2, 1706, aged 70 yrs.[1]

Parents: Henry Tibbetts and Elizabeth Austin; and Thomas Canney and Mary Loome.

Jeremiah Tibbetts was called Jeremy in the old Dover records. He was brought to New England by his parents in 1635, when he was four years old. Jeremiah was constable of Dover Neck in 1663 and 1666, and keeper of the Dover jail in 1670 and for several years thereafter. In 1665, he “stood up” for the jurisdiction of Massachusetts. He had several grants of land from the town. The following church records show when five of their twelve children were born and when one of their children married.

1023 Joan of Acre (April 1272 - 23 April 1307) was an English princess, a daughter of King Edward I of England and Queen Eleanor of Castile.[2] The name "Acre" derives from her birthplace in the Holy Land while her parents were on a crusade.

Joan is most notable for the claim that miracles have allegedly taken place at her grave, and for the multiple references to her in literature.

Joan’s burial place has been the cause of some interest and debate. She is interred in the Augustinian priory at Clare, which had been founded by her first husband's ancestors and where many of them were also buried. Allegedly, in 1357, Joan’s daughter, Elizabeth De Burgh, claimed to have “inspected her mother's body and found the corpse to be intact”,[32] which in the eyes of the Roman Catholic Church is an indication of sanctity. This claim was only recorded in a fifteenth-century chronicle, however, and its details are uncertain, especially the statement that her corpse was in such a state of preservation that "when her paps [breasts] were pressed with hands, they rose up again." Some sources further claim that miracles took place at Joan's tomb,[32] but no cause for her beatification or canonization has ever been introduced.

Joan of Acre makes an appearance in Virginia Henley's historical romance Infamous. In the book, Joan, known as Joanna, is described as a promiscuous young princess, vain, shallow and spoiled. In the novel she is only given one daughter, when she historically had eight children. There is no evidence that supports this picture of Joan.[33]

In The Love Knot by Vanessa Alexander, Joan of Acre is an important character. The author portrays a completely different view of the princess from the one in Henley’s novel. The Love Knot tells the story of the love affair between Ralph de Monthermer and Joan of Acre through the discovery of a series of letters the two had written to each other.[34]

Between historians and novelists, Joan has appeared in various texts as either an independent and spirited woman or a spoiled brat. In Lives of the Princesses of England by Mary Anne Everett Green, Joan is portrayed as a “giddy princess” and neglectful mother.[35] Many have agreed to this characterization; however, some authors think there is little evidence to support the assumption that Joan of Acre was a neglectful or uncaring mother

1024 John "the middle", a cardmaker, was born ca 1555 at Nayland, England and died there in 1613. He was taxed xvi d. on lands in the subsidy of 8 James I (1611). He married first, Elizabeth Scarlet on October 4, 1584 at Nayland. Elizabeth, the daughter of John Scarlett and Emma (____), was baptized in Nayland on August 30, 1561. She was buried there March 27, 1603/4. John married secondly, Rose (____), who was buried August 11, 1610, and thirdly, Rose Riddlesdale on April 23, 1611. All his children were by his first wife. His Will was dated March 27, 1613, and proved November 4, 1613. He bequeathed to wife and children, and twenty shillings to poor people of Nayland. WARREN, John Barnard Jr. (I4856)
 
1025 John and Ruth (Hammond) Gooch, originally from Slymbridge, Gloucestershire, England, were married in 1622. They had five children, all born in Slymbridge, Gloucestershire. Seeking new opportunities, the family emigrated to New England by 1639, settling on "Gooch's Neck" on the northeast shore of the Cape Neddick River, in what is now present-day Maine. John also owned property near the Meeting House and at the Little River. On 19 June 1640 he headed a committee for settling the government in York/Agamenticus.

Around 1641, the Gooch family became embroiled in a scandal. Court records from York, Maine, reveal that Ruth Gooch was involved in an affair with George Burdett, a Puritan minister known for his controversial lifestyle and conflicts with the Massachusetts Bay authorities. The court fined Burdett £20 for "deflowering Ruth, wife of John Gooch of Agamenticus," and Ruth was found guilty of adultery. Her punishment, as per the court's decision, was to stand publicly in a white sheet, without other clothing, in the congregation at Agamenticus on two Sabbath days and one day at the General Court. A witness claimed to have heard John Gooch express a desire to shoot Mr. Burdett, though Ruth reportedly dissuaded him.

Specifically, the court record reads: "For deflowering Ruth, wife of John Gooch of Agamenticus aforesaid," George Burdett was fined £20. The wife, Ruth, was found guilty "By the Grand Inquest, of adultery with Mr. George Burdett" and "is censured by this court, that six weeks after she is delivered of child, she shall stand in a white sheet, without other clothing, publickly in the congregation at Agamenticus two several sabbath days, and likewise one day at this General Court when she shall be thereunto called by one or all of the counsellors of this Province, according to his Majesty's laws in that case provided." A witness in the case testified that he heard "John Gouch say that he was minded to shoote Mr. Burdett, but that his wife persuaded him to the contrary, and he thought that John Gouch carryed a pistoll in his pockett to shoote Mr. Burdett."

The mentioned child was never born. Considering that it is estimated that Ruth was born in 1600, she would have been 40 or 41 at this time, rather old for childbirth, so perhaps she lost it. In 1655, John and Ruth had moved permanently to Wells, Maine. It is possible that they were distancing themselves from this scandal. Despite this tumultuous period, Ruth and John continued to live together until John's death sometime after May 7, 1667 when he made his will.

As for Rev. George Burdett, apart from the incident with Ruth Gooch and at approximately the same time, he fathered a child with Mary, the wife of George Puddington. The child's name was Sarah, born in1641. Correspondence from Thomas Gorges to John Winthrop describes Burdett's reprehensible behavior, and by 1641, Burdett left for England, eventually settling in Ireland where he spent the rest of his life. Interestingly, John and Ruth's daughter Ruth died in 1664 and her husband Peter Weare married as his second wide Mary Puddington, a daughter of George and Mary Puddington.

GOOCH, John (I19853)
 
1027 John Ayres, born around 1615-1625 in England, was a notable figure in the early history of colonial America. His journey from England to the New World was driven by the same quest for religious freedom and opportunity that motivated many of his contemporaries during the period of the Great Puritan Migration.

Upon settling in Ipswich, Massachusetts, John quickly integrated into the community, contributing to its growth and development. His marriage to Susanna Symonds solidified his position in the community, and together they raised a family, adapting to the challenges of life in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

John's life in Ipswich was marked by his active involvement in the community. He was known for his work ethic and commitment to the burgeoning town. However, the relative peace of his life in Ipswich was starkly contrasted by the events that unfolded during King Philip's War, a brutal conflict between Native American tribes and English settlers.

In the summer of 1675, John Ayres found himself in the midst of this conflict. He was part of a group led by Captain Edward Hutchinson and Captain Thomas Wheeler, tasked with negotiating with the Nipmuck tribe. The delegation, seeking to ease tensions and find a peaceful resolution, traveled to a prearranged meeting spot near a swamp. However, the meeting turned into an ambush by the Nipmuck warriors, leading to a violent skirmish. John Ayres was among the eight men killed in this unexpected attack.

The death of John Ayres had significant repercussions. Following the ambush, the survivors, including the wounded Captain Wheeler, retreated to Brookfield. In a desperate bid for safety, they gathered in John Ayres' tavern, which served as a makeshift fort. This building became a crucial stronghold for the settlers during the Siege of Brookfield, one of the key events of King Philip's War.

The siege saw the settlers, including women and children, barricaded inside John Ayres' tavern, defending themselves against continuous attacks by the Nipmuck warriors. The tavern, being one of the sturdiest structures in the town, provided crucial refuge during this critical time. The occupants endured days of assault, with limited supplies and under constant threat, until they were eventually relieved by a colonial militia.

John Ayres' untimely death and the subsequent siege at his tavern highlight the volatile and dangerous nature of life on the colonial frontier. His story is emblematic of the struggles and conflicts that characterized the early years of American colonization. The legacy of John Ayres is not only in his personal contributions to his community but also in the pivotal role his tavern played during a critical moment in the history of Brookfield and the broader context of King Philip's War.

1028 John Bickford, born in England, was living at Oyster River, in Dover, New Hampshire, as early as July 17, 1645, on which day "Darbey Field of Oyster River, in the River of Piscataquay, county of Norfolk, planter," sold John Bickford his dwelling house at Oyster "River, then "in the tenure of the said Bickford," with a lot of five or six acres adjoining on the land towards the creek on the side towards Little Bay, except the strip on said creek in possession of Thomas Willey. On June 23, 1684, John Bickford, with the consent of his "wife Temperance," conveyed to his son, Thomas, "all his house lands lying at ye poynt of Oyster River." After selling or rather presenting this land to his son, John Bickford went to New- ington Shore, where he owned several tracts of land, one near Bloody Point, one at Fox Point and the third one along the point where he established himself. His children and grandchildren intermarried with the chief families of Newington, Harrisons, Dowings, Knights, Pickerins, Coes, Ftirbers and others. His wife's name of Temperance was perpetuated by her descendants through many generations.

1029 John de Lacy, born around 1192 and dying in 1240, was a notable figure in the baronial opposition against King John of England and a key player in the events surrounding the Magna Carta. He was the eldest son and heir of Roger de Lacy, constable of Chester, and his wife, Maud de Clere. John inherited a vast and valuable inheritance, including more than a hundred knights’ fees and the baronies of Pontefract and Clitheroe, among others.

John's early involvement with King John was marked by a sense of grievance due to the terms on which he was granted possession of his father’s estates. King John demanded a massive fine of 7000 marks and took control of John's chief castles, Pontefract and Castle Donington, to be garrisoned at Lacy’s expense. This heavy burden likely influenced John de Lacy's decision to join the baronial rebellion.

Despite his initial loyalty to the crown, evidenced by his participation in John's expedition to Poitou in 1214, John de Lacy joined the baronial cause in 1215. He was present at Runnymede and was named among the Twenty Five barons responsible for enforcing the Magna Carta. His allegiance, however, fluctuated during the subsequent civil war. He briefly submitted to King John in January 1216 but renounced the Magna Carta under duress. By the end of the year, he was in rebellion again, although he was not present at the baronial defeat at Lincoln in 1217. He submitted to the new king, Henry III, in August 1217.

John de Lacy's later life was marked by his participation in the Fifth Crusade, where he journeyed to Damietta in Egypt with Ranulph, Earl of Chester, in 1218. He returned to England in 1220 and witnessed the definitive reissue of Magna Carta in 1225. In 1232, following Ranulph’s death, John de Lacy was granted the title of Earl of Lincoln.

John de Lacy married twice. His first marriage was to Alice de L'Aigle, and his second, in 1221, was to Margaret de Quincy, daughter of Roger de Quincy and granddaughter of Saer de Quincy, another of the Twenty Five. Through this marriage, he inherited the Earldom of Lincoln in 1232. John and Margaret had one son, Edmund, and two daughters, including Maud de Lacy, who married Richard de Clare, 6th Earl of Gloucester.

John de Lacy died on 22 July 1240 and was buried at the Cistercian Abbey of Stanlow in County Chester. His life reflects the complex dynamics of loyalty, rebellion, and political maneuvering during a turbulent period in English history. His involvement in the Magna Carta and the baronial rebellion against King John highlights his significant role in the struggle for rights and governance in medieval England. 
DE LACY, John (I10300)
 
1030 John figures in the history of the Indian wars; but every account published of him is not correct. The most reliable one seems to have been derived from his son Tristram, who used often to relate it in the hearing of his grandson, Samuel Richards, Jr. of S. Paris, Me., who has obligingly forwarded the following sketch, adding that the same, in substance, has been handed down among other descendants of this ancestor. "As he, and some of his neighbors, were at work in a field, at Rochester, N.H., they were suddenly surprised by a party of Indians, who ran towards them with terrific yells and whoops.

Richards and his neighbors ran for his house, which was near by. Richards, however, concluded, as he neared the house, not to go in; and as his wife was at a garrison, at some distance, he directed his flight for her, but was soon brought down by a bullet. An Indian soon stood over him, with upraised tomahawk, and would soon have killed him, had he not called for quarter. The Indian, finding that he was not dangerously wounded, and that he could travel, spared his life, and took him, with another young man, as a prisoner to Canada.

The men who ran inot Richards' house were all killed; their bodies being found by some of their friends soon after; and a web, which Mrs. Richards left in the loom unfinished, was found stained with the blood of her neighbors. Richards, and the other young man, having arrived in Canada, and appearing to be contented, were permitted to go out hunting with the Indians; and as they did not try to escape, were after about a year, allowed to go out alone. They then planned a way to escape. They found a large hollow log in the forest, and prepared it to hide in. as they passed that way they stowed a part of their provision there, and one evening crawled inot the log out of sight.

The Indians, finding that Richards and his mate did not come home at dark, as usual, were soon searching for them, making the woods ring with their calls and answers, and many times passed over the log. after 24 hours search the Indians gave them up, and retired to their wigwams. Richards and his mate, hearing no more of the Indians, then crpet from their hiding and started for Rochester. Their scanty allowance was soon gone, and they began to suffer from hunger and fatigue. Richards' mate now gave himself up to die, as he could go no farther. Richards, being loth to leave him, carried him some distance, but finding his own strength failing also, and the young man begging Richards no to die with him, but to save his own life if possible, he reluctantly consented to do so. They found here the entrails fo a deer, which some hunter had left, and striking a fire, broiled it on the coals. This, said Richards, was the sweetest meat that I ever ate. He now left his companion, but had proceeded but a little way when he heard dogs barking behind him, and returnin, discovered that some hunters had found his friend. They were from Rochester, and carried Richards and his friend home." Of his sufferings and emotions in this events, fancy can paint but an imperfect sketch. Previous to his captivity, he m. at R., Abigail "Myers" or "Miles;" built his house by a living spring on the bank of the river, at Norway Plains in R., where he lived the rest of his days.

1031 John FitzRobert, born around 1190 and dying in 1241, was a significant figure in the tumultuous period of English history surrounding the Magna Carta. He held estates across two regions of England: the far north along the Scottish border, and East Anglia and Essex. This geographical spread gave him ties with two main groups of barons who opposed King John in 1216.

John's family had a long tradition of service to the Angevin monarchy. His grandfather, Roger FitzRichard, earned Henry II's favor through military prowess, receiving the castle of Warkworth in Northumberland and later the castle and feudal honor of Clavering in Essex. John's father, Robert, served as sheriff of Northumberland in 1203 and received various grants from King John. Robert expanded the great castle at Warkworth, with additions still visible today.

Succeeding his father in 1212, John FitzRobert maintained his family's position in northern society, associating with notable figures like Eustace de Vesci, William de Mowbray, and Peter de Brus. He also had connections in East Anglia, where his great-grandfather had acquired estates through marriage to a daughter of Roger Bigod, Earl of Norfolk. John himself served as sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk in 1213 and 1215.

Despite his family's history of royal service, John joined the baronial cause relatively late. His high standing and strong ties in northern society led to his selection as one of the Twenty Five, a group of barons responsible for enforcing the Magna Carta. After the baronial defeat at Lincoln in 1216, he was among the first to submit to Henry III's minority government. He later served as sheriff of Northumberland from 1224 to 1227.

John FitzRobert married twice. His first wife, Ada de Balliol, brought him the lordship of Barnard Castle in County Durham. His second wife was Cecily de Fontaines. When John died in 1240, the chronicler Matthew Paris described him as "a man of noble birth and one of the chief barons of the northern provinces of England."

John FitzRobert's life was a blend of loyalty, rebellion, and political maneuvering. His involvement in the Magna Carta and the baronial rebellion against King John highlights his significant role in the struggle for rights and governance in medieval England. His legacy continued through his children, who maintained the family's prominence in English history.

1032 John fought in Scotland (1327, 1335) and France (1342-6).[1] He was imprisoned for three months in 1332 for drawing his knife in the presence of the king, in a quarrel with William la Zouche Mortimer.[1]

John de Grey fought at the Battle of Crecy in France in 1346.[1] This battle was the first in which the longbow played a significant role, changing the nature of warfare from earlier chivalrous attacks to those taking into account the terrain and use of peasant fighters.[4] John was then given permission to crenelate his manors, and was made a Founder Knight of the Garter in 1348.[1]

John de Grey died 1 sep 1359 at Rotherfield, Oxfordshire.[1] The record of his post mortem inquisition shows the extent of his enormous holdings.[5]

John Libby passed away around February 9, 1681, at about 70 years of age in Scarborough, York, Massachusetts Bay Colony.

John Libby migrated to New England during the Puritan Great Migration (1621-1640). He arrived at Richmond's Island on February 13, 1636/7, on the Hercules, captained by William Chappel. He worked in the fishing company of John Winter from December 15, 1636, to February 13, 1639, and also for six weeks in 1643. He was then in the service of John Sparke, a merchant and Mayor of Plymouth, England.

John settled near "Libby's common landing place" at Anthony's hole near the eastern point of the "Old Neck" in Scarborough. Before January 1, 1663/4, he moved inland and built on the bank of Libby's River on the 283 acres he purchased from Henry Jocelyn.

John was active in the community, serving as constable in 1664 and a selectman in 1669. During King Philip's War, he suffered significant losses. His house was burned, and his cattle were killed by the Indians, forcing him and his family to flee. Four of his sons fought in defense; two lost their lives.

In his later years, John Libby returned to Scarborough and acquired a comfortable property. He died at about 80 years of age. His will, dated February 9, 1682, provided for his wife and especially for his two younger sons, David and Matthew.

1035 John lost the Duchy of Normandy to King Philip II of France, resulting in the collapse of most of the Angevin Empire and contributing to the subsequent growth in power of the Capetian dynasty during the 13th century. The baronial revolt at the end of John's reign led to the sealing of Magna Carta, a document sometimes considered to be an early step in the evolution of the constitution of the United Kingdom.

Contemporary chroniclers were mostly critical of John's performance as king, and his reign has since been the subject of significant debate and periodic revision by historians from the 16th century onwards. Historian Jim Bradbury has summarised the current historical opinion of John's positive qualities, observing that John is today usually considered a "hard-working administrator, an able man, an able general". Nonetheless, modern historians agree that he also had many faults as king, including what historian Ralph Turner describes as "distasteful, even dangerous personality traits", such as pettiness, spitefulness and cruelty.[3] These negative qualities provided extensive material for fiction writers in the Victorian era, and John remains a recurring character within Western popular culture, primarily as a villain in films and stories depicting the Robin Hood legends.

1036 John Marmion was a notable figure in the early 14th century, closely associated with Thomas, Earl of Lancaster. He was involved in the controversial execution of Piers Gaveston, a close associate of King Edward II, in 1312, for which he was later pardoned in October of the same year.

John Marmion's political and military involvement continued over the years. He was summoned for military service against the Scots in 1314, and again in 1322 and 1323. In 1322, he received protection for his participation in a campaign in Scotland with the Earl of Richmond and was appointed as a commissioner of array for North Riding. By December 1326, he was summoned to Parliament, and in September 1327, he served on a commission of oyer and terminer in Yorkshire.

In 1327, John and his wife Maud de Furnival, daughter of Lord Hugh de Furnival, made a significant property settlement involving the manors of Tanfield and Carthorpe. In May 1329, John received a three-year protection to go on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. He faced personal challenges in October 1331 when his park at Tanfield was invaded and his deer stolen while he was under the King's protection. In July 1332, he was tasked with selecting archers for the King's expedition to Ireland.

John Marmion married Maud de Furnival, and he is believed to have died on April 30, 1335. After his death, Maud made several property settlements and was involved in religious and charitable activities, including the establishment of chantries. She was commemorated in the parish church of Tanfield for her contributions. John of Gaunt later granted a license for land grants in West Tanfield and Carthorpe to honor the souls of John Marmion and Maud.

John Marmion's life was marked by his military service, his involvement in significant political events of the time, and his contributions to his estate and family.

1038 John Miller was the son of Martin Miller, a weaver. At age 18, he matriculated at Caius College, Cambridge University in 1624, receiving financial help from the college, and earning a B.A. in 1627. John married Lydia (unknown maiden name) in Bishops Stortford, Hertfordshire, England before their first child was born in March of 1631.

John and Lydia emigrated to New England by 1634 with his wife and son John. He was Elder in the church at Roxbury, 1634, and made freeman in 1639. He preached in Rowley 1639-41. He was a proprietor and had a grant of land in Sandwich, 1641, and in Newbury, 1642. In 1642 he was asked to go as a missionary to Virginia, but declined "because of bodily weakness." He preached in Yarmouth, 1646 to 1662. In 1662 or 1663 he was called to Groton and preached there until his death.

The earliest documents relating to any inhabitant of Groton, found among the files of the Middlesex County Probate Office, are those belonging to the estate of the Reverend John Miller, the first minister of the town.

We are descended from John and Lydia on the Wright (Tucker) side.

1039 John Pickering was a carpenter who arrived in New England in 1630. He married a woman whose name is lost to history in 1643 and they had five children together. They were among the earliest residents of Portsmouth and there are a number of records of his activities there, including a contract to enlarge a home for Ambrose Gobbons, a contract for his "purchase" of the rights to an indentured servant from Ireland named Dennis Mekermecke, and service as a selectman for four terms (5 years total), among others.

We are descended on the Laviolette (DeRochemont) line.

1040 John Putnam, born in 1580 in Aston Abbotts, Buckinghamshire, England married Priscilla Gould, born in 1585 in Buckinghamshire, England, and together they embarked on a journey that would see them become early settlers in the New World.

John and Priscilla had a large family, with their children including Thomas, John, Nathaniel, Elizabeth, Phoebe, and Sara. In pursuit of religious freedom and better opportunities, the Putnams decided to leave England. They arrived in Salem, Massachusetts, around 1634, where John quickly became a respected member of the community. He was granted land in Salem, which he farmed, and he also held various local offices, contributing significantly to the early governance and development of the colony.

The Putnams were deeply involved in the Salem community. John was known for his strong work ethic and commitment to the Puritan faith, which guided much of his life and decisions. He was a freeman by 1635, indicating his full rights and responsibilities as a member of the colony.

John Putnam passed away on December 30, 1662, in Salem, leaving behind a legacy as one of the founding figures of the town. His wife, Priscilla, had predeceased him, passing away in 1662 as well. Their children continued to play significant roles in Salem and the surrounding areas, with their descendants becoming involved in various historical events, including the infamous Salem Witch Trials.

1041 John Sutton was born at 25 December 1400 and baptised at Barton-under-Need wood, Staffordshire, became 1st Baron Dudley and a Knight of the Garter, and died at Stafford, Staffordshire. His father was Sir John de Sutton V a nd his mother was Constance Blount. John 1st Baron Dudley married Elizabe th de Berkeley, of Beverstone (died 1478), widow of Edward Charleton, 5 th Baron Cherleton and daughter of Sir John Berkeley, of Beverstone, Glouc estershire (1349-1428) and Elizabeth Bettershorne and sister of Eleanor Fi tzAlan, wife of John FitzAlan, 13th Earl of Arundel, sometime after 14 Mar ch 1420.

Dudley was summoned to Parliament from 15 February 1440, by writs direct ed to "Johanni de Sutton de Duddeley militi", whereby he obtained a Baro ny by writ as Lord Dudley. He was the first of his family to adopt the sur name of Dudley as an alias for Sutton. "John Dudley, Knyght, Lord Dudle y" died testate in his 87th year. His will is dated 17 August 1487. The ba rony was inherited by his grandson, Edward Sutton, 2nd Baron Dudley, Lo rd Dudley, son of Edmund de Sutton who was the heir but died after 6 Ju ly 1483 but before his father.

As Lord Steward in 1422 Sutton brought home the body of King Henry V to En gland, and was chief mourner and standard bearer at his funeral. From 1428 -1430 he served as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. Dudley fought in several ca mpaigns throughout the period of the wars with France, and on several occa sions acted as a diplomat in the mid-1440s, when he also met Charles V II of France. In 1443 he was made a king's councillor and became one of t he favourite companions of King Henry VI. In 1451 he became a Knight of t he Garter.[3] Early on in the Wars of the Roses he was a resolute defend er of the House of Lancaster, but changed his allegiance to York before t he Battle of Towton in 1561.

At the Battle of St Albans 1455 John Lord Dudley took part with his son Ed mund, where he was taken prisoner along with Henry VI. At the Battle of Bl ore Heath he was present on 23 September 1459, equally with his son Edmu nd Sutton. Dudley was wounded and again captured. At Towton (1461) he w as rewarded after the battle for his participation on the side of Edwar d, Earl of March, son of Richard, Duke of York. On June 28 of that year, E dward IV was proclaimed King in London. Following the Battle of Bosworth F ield in August 1485, Dudley was created Sheriff of Sussex by the new Ki ng Henry VII.

1042 John Tiptoft (or Tibetot), K.B. 1st Lord Tiptoft, Knight of the Shire for Huntingdonshire and Somerset, Speaker of the House of Commons, Treasurer of the Household, Chief Butler of England, Lord High Treasurer (1408-1410), Seneschal of Landes and Aquitaine, Councillor of Regency, Steward of the Household.

He was born circa 1383 (age 30 in 1413).

He first married (before 25 Oct 1407) Philippe Talbot, daughter of John Talbot by his wife Katherine. They had no children. He married secondly (by license dated 28 Feb 1421/2) Joyce Cherleton (or Charleton), daughter of Edward Cherleton by Eleanor de Holand. They had one son, John, and three daughters: Philippe, Joan and Joyce.

John and his second wife also had a daughter, Margaret, who "embraced the religious life."[1]

Joan, the older sister of John's second wife, inherited the lordship of Powys, so John Tiptoft was not the lord of Powys, although his son was summoned to parliament as John de Charleton de Powys.[1]

1043 John Tuttle, originally from Northern England, arrived in what would become Dover, New Hampshire, around 1638 after surviving a shipwreck off the Maine coast in 1635 (the Angel Gabriel, according to family legend) and spending some time in Ipswich, Massachusetts. He received a land grant from King Charles II, estimated at about 7 acres, situated between two rivers. This land marked the beginning of his farming venture.

In 1640, John married a woman named Dorothy in Dover. The same year, he appeared on a list of Dover's principal citizens, protesting against a plan to bring Dover under Massachusetts' control. This action suggested that John preferred the governance style of Mason and Gorges over the Puritan rule of Massachusetts.

John's farm was located on the east side of Dover Neck, about forty rods southeast of the present-day Henderson's Field. Initially, he owned eight acres there, and this land has remarkably stayed within his family for generations. He also had thirty acres on the Great Bay and received additional land from the town, later given to his son, Judge Tuttle, in 1706.

John was a prosperous farmer, and his dedication to farming laid the foundation for a family tradition that would endure for centuries. His farm eventually grew to about 240 acres, including various types of land. Notably, this farm became recognized as the oldest continuously family-owned farm in the United States, a testament to the Tuttle family's long-standing commitment to agriculture.

John passed away in May or June 1663, around the age of forty-five. His wife, Dorothy, was appointed to manage his estate, as he died without a will. She reported to the court on June 30, 1663. John's legacy continued through his descendants, who maintained and cherished the farm he started, keeping it operational and in the family for generations. The Tuttle family farm remains a significant part of American agricultural history, symbolizing enduring dedication and resilience.

1045 John was among the Adherants of Thomas Earl of Lancaster,who were responsible for the beheading, without trial, of king Edward 2nd's friend Peter( Piers) Gaveston in 1312, for which he was pardoned Oct 1312.

26 Dec.1326 he was summoned to Parliament
May 1329 he had protection for three years, going on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. John married Maud de Furnival, daughter of Lord Hugh de Furnival. His name appears in Oct 1313 among a list of those adherents of Thomas, Earl of Lancaster, who were pardoned for the death of Piers de Gaveston. He was summoned, as John Marmion "le fitz" for military service against the Scots in 1314, and again in 1322 and 1323. In Aug 1322 he had letters of protection for going to Scotland with the Earl of Richmond, and in Oct of that year, he was appointed commissioner of array for North Riding. He was summoned to Parliament 3 Dec 1326, and in Sep 1327 was named on a commission of oyer and terminer for Yorkshire. In that same year, he and wife Maud made a settlement in special tail male of the manors of Tanfield and Carthorpe. In May 1329 he had a protection for three years for going on pilgrimage to the Holy Land.

He was summoned to Parliament 3 December 1326, by writ directed Johanni Marmyoun. In September 1327 he was named on a commission of oyer and terminer for Yorkshire; and in the same year, with Maud his wife, he made a settlement in special tail male of the manors of Tanfield and Carthorpe. In May 1329 he had a protection for three years on going on pilgrimage to the Holy Land. In October 1331 he complained that while he was under the King's protection certain persons broke his park atTanfield, hunted there and carried away his deer. In July 1332 he was ordered to choose 20 archers for the King's expedition to Ireland. He married Maud, who is said to have been a daughter of Thomas,LORD FURNIVALLE. He is said to have died 30 April 1335. In 1343 as widow of John Marmyoun, chivaler, she caused a settlement to be made of the manors of West Tanfield, EastTanfield, Carthorpe, Manfield, and Brough, and other specifiedproperty, including the advowsons of West Tanfield and Wath, of the hospital of St. Giles by Brompton Bridge, and the chantries of West Tanfield, Little Langton, and Wath; to hold to Maud and the heirs male of her body; remainder to John de Grey of Rotherfield and Avice his wife and to John Maryon son of the said John and Alice, and the heirs of the bodies of the said John de Grey and Avice; remainder to the heirs of Avice's body; remainder to John Bernak and Joan his wife, and the heirs of Joan's body; remainder to Avice's right heirs. In 1346 she is described as 'Domina de Marmion'; and in 1348 she had licence to crenellate the manor of West Tanfield. Her name was commemoratedin "the three chauntereys called Mawde Marmeon in the parysshe church of Tanfield". On 20 Feb 1361/2 John of Gaunt granted alicence in mortmain for the grant of land in the manors of WestTanfield and Carthorpe to certain chaplains to celebrate in the church of West Tanfield for the good of his soul and the souls of John Marmyon and Maude his wife.

1046 John was obviously not the child of Daniel de Rochemont, but his name in the 1850 census as a 15 year old is de Rochemont. In the 1880 census he is shown as John H L Odde. John's Massachusetts death record shows he lived at 439 Trapelo Rd, Waverly, Massachusetts and was married. The return was from Belmont, Massachusetts where his son John Alabama Odde lived at 52 Willow and was the informant. He had had angina pectoris for two weeks. ODDE, John Anthony Lawson (I1827)
 
1047 Joseph Hull was born on 25 April 1594, in Crewkerne, Somerset, England. He was the youngest child of Thomas Hull, a yeoman, and Joane Peson/Pysing

On 4 November 1614, he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from St. Mary’s Hall, Oxford University in Oxfordshire, England. During the next five years, Joseph Hull studied theology, serving as a teacher and curate under his eldest brother, William Hull, who was the vicar of Colyton a village in Devon, England.

On the 23 May 1619, Joseph Hull was ordained a clergyman of the Church of England by the bishop at Exeter, Devon.

On 14 April 1621, Joseph Hull was made rector of Northleigh, a diocese of Exeter, where he would serve for the next 11 years.

In 1629, Joseph Hull incurred the wrath of the church, when the wardens of Crewkerne were “presented” for allowing him to preach there without signing the Book of Strange Preachers.

In 1632, Rev. Joseph Hull resigned his rectorship at Northleigh and returned to Crewkerne. Joseph and Joanne’s final child, Dorothy, was born in Crewkerne, circa 1632. Unfortunately, either during childbirth or soon thereafter, Joanne Hull died and was buried in 1632, in her hometown of Crewkerne, Somerset, England.

With Joanne’s death, Joseph Hull was left to raise several young children alone. As he was still serving as a rector (probably in somewhere in Somerset), he would have had difficulties being a single parent. Consequently, on 13 March 1633, Joseph Hull married Agnes Hunt in Wells St. Cuthbert, Somerset, England.

Joseph Hull was cited for illegal preaching at Broadway twice in January 1635. Joseph Hull continued ministering to the masses. He allegedly preached a sermon at Glastonbury, in which he was quoted as saying that “judgment hung over the land and that first it would fall on the clergy and then the laity.”

Then, on 17 February 1635, Joseph Hull was expelled from the Church of England-not for his preaching but for “failing to respond to the court’s citation.”

On 20 March 1635, at Crewkerne, Joseph Hull gathered 106 followers. Together, along with his wife Agnes and seven of his children, they headed to Weymouth, England. On 26 March 1635, they boarded a ship bound for America. The group arrived in Boston on 5/6 May 1635. Rev. Hull and his congregation then settled in Wessaguscus, Massachusetts. Governor Winthrop’s Official Journal, under date of 8 July 8 1635, contains the following entry:

At this court Wessaguscus was made a plantation and Mr. Hull, a minister of England, and twenty-one families with him allowed to sit down there.

The arrival of this group doubled Wessaguscus’ population. The village soon became a full-fledged town, invested with municipal rights, renamed Weymouth, and given representation in the General Court. A church was formed on 8 July 1635, with Joseph Hull installed as its first pastor.

Meanwhile, Joseph Hull more progressive religious teachings were offending the Puritan leaders:

Reverend Joseph Hull…was a man of exceptional ability who came with his family to the Bay Colony and settled at Wissagusset (Weymouth). There he gathered a church and served as pastor until his liberal views were known. He hoped to bridge the gap between Anglicans and Puritans, but was dismissed by the congregation he had gathered… (The Isles of Shoals in Lore and Legend, by Lyman V. Rutledge, pg. 39).

His replacement was a Puritan minister, Thomas Jenner of Roxbury

In 12 June 1636, Joseph Hull received a land grant in Nantasket, then a part of Hingham.

On 2 September 1636, Joseph Hull took the oath as a Freeman of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

During that same time period, Joseph Hull represented that town twice as a Deputy in the General Court of Massachusetts in September 1638 and March 1639. He was both a political and a religious opponent of Gov. John Winthrop; apparently the “very contentious” Joseph Hull sided more with the Anglican residents than the Puritan leaders. Gov. Winthrop retaliated by expelling Joseph Hull from the Massachusetts Colony. On 5 May 1639, it was recorded in Hobart’s Journal that Joseph Hull preached his farewell sermon in the Massachusetts Colony.

After leaving Hingham, the Hull Family relocated to the Plymouth Colony. Tradition credits Rev. Joseph Hull with having preached the first sermon in Barnstable

While Joseph Hull was in the Plymouth Colony, he began raising cattle. Unfortunately, because of his new endeavor, Joseph Hull was named defendant in several trespass suits. It is interesting to note that in all but one of these actions, the constable attached two of Joseph Hull’s steers. Obviously, Joseph Hull’s cattle were highly desired by the plaintiffs.

Joseph Hull was appointed one of the first two deputies for the town of Barnstable, as noted in the 3 June session records of the General Court of Plymouth.

Meanwhile, Joseph Hull’s preaching again came to the notice of the Puritans. In response, a Puritan minster was sent to displace Joseph Hull. On 11 October 1639, Rev. John Lathrop arrived in Barnstable with his church from Scituate, and on 31 October 1639, a Day of Humiliation was observed. Apparently, Joseph Hull made no effort to perform any ministerial functions after the arrival of Rev. Lathrop.

About a year later, Joseph Hull moved into the adjoining town of Yarmouth, where, at the request of some of the residents, he served them in a ministerial capacity. However, he neglected to secure the approval of the Barnstable church and was excommunicated on 1 May 1641.

Soon thereafter, Joseph Hull became a transient preacher, moving from place to place.

…After some wandering [he] went to the Isles of Shoals, where he served around the year 1640 (The Isles of Shoals in Lore and Legend, by Lyman V. Rutledge, pg. 39).

From the book, Religion at the Isles of Shoals: Anglicans, Puritans, Missionaries, UUs, and UCCs, by Lois Williams, pg. 10-11:

Although there was no resident clergyman at the Shoals, the Anglican concept of parish included all within its boundaries, and mainland clergy reached out to fishermen on the Isles of Shoals. The Reverend Joseph Hull, an early Church of England clergyman at York…occasionally visited the islands where he preached and administered the Holy Sacraments. In this Hull ran little risk of being disciplined, for he lived in the province of Maine which stoutly supported Episcopalian and royalist friends.

On 7 March 1642, the General Court at Plymouth issued a warrant directing Joseph Hull’s arrest should he attempt to exercise his ministerial duties within the Plymouth Colony, describing him in the warrant as an excommunicated minister. Four days later, Joseph’s wife Agnes was readmitted to the church in Barnstable.

Our Sister Hull renewed her covenant, renouncing her joining at Yarmouth and confessed her evil in so doing, with sorrow.

Joseph Hull was readmitted to the Barnstable church on 10 August 1643 “having acknowledged his sin.”

But this must not have sat well with Joseph Hull, because soon after, the Hull Family relocated; this time to Accominticus (modern-day York, Maine), where Joseph Hull became minister. A church-chapel was also erected by the inhabitants of the Isles of Shoals on Hog Island for a congregation of which the records Rev. Joseph Hull was also the minister.

In 1643, he accepted a call to York, but he had become so much attached to the islands that he went back often to conduct services (The Isles of Shoals in Lore and Legend, by Lyman V. Rutledge, pg. 39).

The Hull Family remained in this area until circa 1650, when the Massachusetts Bay Colony brought Maine under their jurisdiction. Again, a Puritan minister, this one a Rev. Brock, was sent to supersede Joseph Hull.

Obviously, enough was enough for Joseph Hull. He and his family decided to return to England.

Upon their return, the Hull Family settled in Cornwall, England, where Joseph was given the parsonage at St. Buryan.

The Hull Family remained in Cornwall for more than a decade, at which time Joseph Hull was ejected from the parish. In 1660, the Hull Family returned to the Colonies, briefly staying in Oyster River, New Hampshire, before returning to the Isles of Shoals in 1663.

From the book, Religion at the Isles of Shoals: Anglicans, Puritans, Missionaries, UUs (Unitarian Universalists) and UCCs (United Church of Christ), by Lois Williams, pg. 17:

The Reverend Joseph Hull moved to the islands in 1663 to follow the Reverend Brock. Hull died in 1665 without receiving his expected payment of twenty pounds from the Sholaers…Reverend Hull [is credited] with trying to find common ground with both Anglicans and Puritans, and the Shoalers seem to have welcomed his more tolerant approach.

Joseph Hull remained as minister of the Isles of Shoals, where he continue his ministry until his death on 19 November 1665. His estate was valued at 52 pounds, five shillings, and five pence. A learned man, his library alone was valued at ten pounds. Upon his death, Joseph Hull was owed 20 pounds from the Isles of Shoals for his ministry.

1048 Judith founded Elstow Abbey in Bedfordshire around 1078. She also founded churches at Kempston and Hitchin. She had land-holdings in 10 counties in the Midlands and East Anglia. Her holdings included land at:

Earls Barton, Northamptonshire
Great Doddington, Northamptonshire
Grendon, Northamptonshire
Ashby Folville, Leicestershire
Lowesby, Leicestershire
Merton, Oxfordshire
Piddington, Oxfordshire
Potton, Bedfordshire
Sawtry, Huntingdonshire

The parish of Sawtry Judith in Huntingdonshire is named after the Countess.

In 1075, Judith's husband Waltheof joined the Revolt of the Earls against William. It was the last serious act of resistance against the Norman conquest of England. Judith betrayed Waltheof to her uncle, who had Waltheof beheaded on 31 May 1076.

1053 khmiller856 I think there may be a few John Waldron's confused. "A" John Waldron married Mary Ham Horne a widow. He was not a Captain as he supposedly had been take off the streets of London as a very young man and became an indentured apprentice. In John Heard's Will of Jan. 1688 "...I give to my prentice John Walldron, iff he doe faithfully serve his time according to his indenture: one cow to be delivered to him.." In John Waldron's his Will of 1740 he does not refer to himself as a Captain. He received a lot of wealth through his marriage & his own fortitude. Mary Ham Horne is also the gr.daughter of John Heard whom held his original indenture. I am not sure it has been discovered who his parents were as he was pressed into "Indentured Servitude" at a very young age & brought to New Hampshire. John Heard was a Master Carpenter & John Waldron learned a trade from him that is why he is referred to as an a prentice.. I know the story says "Chore Boy", but he was more likely learning the trade of a carpenter, which I think makes the story more remarkable.
3 years ago khmiller856 There are three different John Heards that have been confused also. The one who has John Waldron in his Will was John Heard who married Elizabeth Hull but he was not a captain & did not have a ship. It is difficult to be sure because the three different John's have been muddled together for so long & each one is said be a ship master but not all were or any. John Heard may have bought John Waldron as a "Indentured Servant" when he arrived in New England. He refers to him as a prentice in his Will which could mean he taught him the trade of carpentry as he was a Master Carpenter. "Indentured servant" was a labor system where young people paid for passage by working for someone for a number of years sadly sometimes people were also kidnapped. John Heard did not necessarily kidnap Waldron as he was living in NH not England & he had 12 children between 1644 -1667. It would be tough to get to England & kidnap a child then return. He could however have bought out his passage when he arrived in New England. John Heard gave John Waldron a cow in his will when his indenture was finished. That was a very expensive gift to give to someone & John would later marry his gr. daughter.
