    Notes:

    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.
    3 years ago khmiller856 The only one of the three John Heards that seems to be a Captain was John b. 1667 d. 1751. Capt. Heard was the same age as John Waldron so could not have kidnapped him in England.
    3 years ago embear624 I totally understand about the several "John Waldron" stories floating around. Have you seen https://amoena.wordpress.com/2009/05/17/descendants-of-john-walderne/
