is said to have died during the English Civil War in May of 1645, while he was Governor of Newark Castle. This is probably not the castle at Newark in Nottinghamshire but rather NewarkCastle near Phillipaugh in the vicinity of Selkirk and Melrose in Scotland. This has not been verified.

General Notes: Husband - Thomas Witham
Thomas bought a quarter acre of land from Richard Babson next to land he already received from his mother-in-law on May 11, 1696. The record reads: "John Ring, as the agent of Thomas Witham, bought the Babson Farm at the Little Good Harbor..."
History of Gloucester, Early Settlers, p. 87..
"the father (Thomas) must have been a man of uncommone qualities, for, apparently beginning with nothing, he brought up all but one of this great family to mature years, educated one son at Harvard College, and left an estate valued at almost L4000. His will, made July 29, 1736, gives his wife Abigail house at the head of the harbor to dwell in during her widowhood, all household stuff necessary to keep house, two cows, ten sheep, ten cords of firewood brought to her door, four barrels cider, ten bushels corn, one hundred pounds each of pork and beef brought to her house, and apples; to son James upper end of great marsh or meadow; to son Joseph one-third of farm at the cape, having given his son Henry one-third in time past, now gives the other third to Joseph and Henry; to son Daniel lower part of great marsh; to sons Ebenezer and Zebulon, homestead, house, tan-house, barn, fields, orchards, and tan-yards belonging to homestead, on both sides of the way; to James, Joseph and Zebulon, wharf and ware-house at head of harbor; to daughter Abigail L150 in Province bills; to Sarah L50, to be paid by Ebenezer and Zebulon; to Patience Grover L100, besides what she had already received; to Thankful Grover L100; to Joseph Gatchel, his apprentice, L10; and lastly, a negro man to his son Henry. Some of the items of his inventory were - the homestead, about 67 acres, L1700; two-thirds of farm at the cape, about 90 acres, and one-third of a barn thereon, L720; house and barn near head of the harbor, L200; wharf and ware-house, L150; stock of leather, L193; two yoke of oxen, L41; nine cows, L54; three heifers and steer, L19.10; and swine, horses, and 120 sheep and lambs."
General Notes: Child - James Witham
History of Gloucester, Early Settlers, p. 88...
"James, the oldest son of Thomas who lived to mature years, married Hepzibah, daughter probably of John Stanwood, Feb. 7, 1723. Besides five daughters, - Susanna, Sarah andRebekah, twins, Rachel and Jerusha, he had sons, - James, John, Thomas and Zebulon, the first three of whom appear to have been married in town. A cellar on a lonely spot near what was once known as Stacy's Pines, on the back road to Rockport, marks the home of James Witham and his son Thomas, who, it is said, were employed by some of the Low family to watch their flocks and herds in the neighboring pastures. In its later days the old house was frequently visited by young people, and was the scene of a great deal of mirth and jollity."
General Notes: Child - Joseph Witham
History of Gloucester, Early Settlers, p. 88..
"Joseph, the next son of Thomas, married Jane Haraden, probably daughter of John, Dec. 2, 1728, and had Jane, Abigail, Joseph, Andrew, Jane, again, Sarah and Edmund Grover; of no one of whom, parents or children, can I say more, except that I suppose Andrew, born Oct. 28, 1734, to be the same who married Sarah Witham, May 11, 1758, and had a son Joseph and four daughters recorded in the town books. Joseph sen, died before Sept. 24, 1744 when his widow Jane administered on his estate."
General Notes: Child - Dr. Daniel Witham
Daniel Witham graduated Harvard Coillege in 1718. Soon afterward, he taught a school in Dorchester; and in 1729 and 1730 was engaged in the same emploment in Gloucester. He next entered upon the practice of medicine, and continued in it during life. Tradition and history are both slient concerning his professional career and reputation; but the written testimony of his ability, and usefulness as a citizen, is ample and conclusive. He began in early manhood to take an active part in town affairs, and gained a popularity which he preserved to the end of his life. He was town clerk forty-two years, and selectman thirty-seven years; and, besides these permanent offices, was frequently called upon to serve in others of temporary, but no less important character. Being qualified by education, experience in public affairs, and interest in the general welfare, his services were often in requisition in the preparation of resolves and addresses for the expression of the sentiments of the people at the anxious and excited period which immediately preceded the Revolutionary War; and he fully shared the patriotic indignation which filled the breasts of his townsmen, when assembled to consider the oppression and wrongs which the mother country made them so sensibly to feel.

General Notes: Child - Capt. Zebulon Witham
Zebulon was a some time ship master. He was captured, robbed and released by a Spanish privateer on the coast of Cape Charles, November 1740.
General Notes: Child - Elder Henry Witham
Roger W. Babson in his "Story of Bear Skin Neck"... "Ebenezer Babson, who the resided at the Farms, saw the bear attack the boy (his nephew, Henry Witham). He immediately attacked the bear to get his attention away from the child, but having no gun he permitted the bear to follow him into the water. There - after a terrific struggle - Ebenezer killed the bear with a fish knife."
The story is continued by George Jay Babson: "He then brought the bear onto shore, skinned him, and spread the skin on the rocks to dry. Ebenezer died shortly afterwards, presumably at sea, but his nephew Henry Witham, whose life he saved, lived to a ripe old age. Naturally, he often told the story of hios rescue, and when people asked how Ebenezer killed the bear, he would reply: "With his knife, I do declare."
History of Gloucester, Early Settlers, p. 88...
"Henry, the next son of Thomas, married Jan. 18, 1733, Rachel, widow of Thomas Parsons and daughter of Elder Jabez Baker of Sandy Bay. He settled at Sandy Bay, probably on the land bequeathed to him by his father, became an elder of the fifth church, and died March 18, 1777, aged eighty-two. She died in Jan. 1795, aged over ninety. Their children were, - Anna, Moses, Mary, Patience, Joshua, Bethiah, Henry, Abigail, Caleb and Ebenezer. I know not that more than one of the sons married. Henry, born Feb. 13, 1744, married widow Anna Davis, Dec. 17, 1767, and is said to have died at about eighty years of age. His son Henry, says Mr. Pool, died in 1819, of a malignant fever caught on board of a vessel in Boston, recently arrived from a sickly port, aged forty-nine; leaving a son William Henry who settled in Illinois, and removed then to Houston, Texas, where he died in 1855."
History of Gloucester, Early Settlers, p. 335...
"Henry Witham, son of Thomas Witham, married Rachel Parsons (a widowed daughter, it is supposed, of Jabez Baker) in 1733, and settled in Sandy Bay, near the Grovers, at the southeasterly end of the Cape. He had a large family of children; became an elder of the church there; and died March 18, 1777, aged eighty-two."

General Notes: Husband - John Millett
John Millet inherited half his father's sizeable estate, but much of his property was lost in the Land Bank and he died poor in 1747. He remained in Gloucester, Massachusetts all his life, but in 1737 he and two other men from Gloucester were appointed to lay out lots in the township of New Gloucester, Maine, and in the first distribution of lots the following year, he drew lot #22. That same year he was chosen to cut a good way, twelve feet wide, from New Yarmouth, Maine to New Gloucester, Maine, through the town to the spot selected for a meeting house.
Notes: Marriage
They were married by Rev. Samuel Thompson.

General Notes: Child - Lieut. Thomas Millett
Thomas enlisted in the Continental Army on 3 May 1775. The Company to which he belonged was in the battle of Bunker Hill. On the way to the battle they divided into two parts, one under the Captain and the other under the Lieutenant. Thomas was with the Lieutenant, and by the time they reached the site, the battle was essentially over and the seige of Boston broken. He joined Washington's army and stayed on after the term of his enlistment until after the battle of Trenton. He returned to Gloucester, and in April signed up for a year on the Hancock, a ship of 32 guns under the command of Captain John Manley. They sailed from Boston in May 1777. Cruising off Newfoundland, they captured a merchant vessel and the Fox, a sloop of war. But in August he was captured by the British warship Rainbow and impressed into service with her crew. At Halifax, on Christmas day, he and two others escaped by jumping overboard and swimming three miles to shore. From Liverpool, Nova Scotia he shipped out on the sloop Bermuda for Antigua, and went from there to St. Eustasia. In May of 1778 he shipped on the Dutch schooner for North Carolina, but was captured by the British and taken to New York. Here he was imprisoned until September. Then he was taken to Elizabethtown, New Jersey to be exchanged.
In the sixteen months that his family had not heard from him, his wife and four children had gone to New Gloucester, Maine to live with her brother William Parsons. Thomas joined them there. He never returned to Massachusetts. In 1781 he went with three other families to Leeds, Maine -- then in the heart of the wilderness. There he built a log house, and lived the rest of his life. Youngest son Benjamin always lived at the homestead, but the other children scattered to nearby areas. In 1813, age 81, Thomas applied for a pension, which was granted.
The story is told that on the day he died, Thomas hitched his team of horses to the buggy, drove to each of his children's homes for a visit, and died that night.

General Notes: Husband - James Babson
His brothers were seaman and the probability is that he was also a seaman. In the Prerogative Court in London is the will of one John Martin,of New England, bachelor, who departed this life on the high seas, June 4, 1673. He made his will on June 3, 1673, which was proved in London,Feb. 5, 1673/74. He made the following bequests, viz. to Jeremy Jackson one dollar; to William Godfrie two dollars; to Steven Swasey one dollar; to Richard Sanders six pence; to John Shewt (Shute) six pence; to John Hill sixteen shillings; "to James Babson my consort I give my wages that is due to me for my service in his Majesty's ship the Jersey, with all the rest of my goods, money or what else I possess in this ship." (Water's Gleanings in England, 2:1288.)
This seems to place James Babson, then in his twenty fifth year, as a consort of John Martin of New England and in the ship Jersey on the high seas, June 3, 1673. He does not appear later in New England.
He worked as a cooper. He no doubt learned these skills from his father back in New England.

General Notes: Husband - James Babson
He came to New England in April 1637 from Weymouth, England with his mother and brother aboard a vessel commanded by John Driver. He lived with Isabel (--?--) and Ricahrad Babson at Salem on 25 Sep 1637. He lived with Isabel (--?--) at Salem in 1641.
They had moved to Gloucester by June of 1642 when James Babson along with Abraham Robinson and William Brown "of Gloucester" were involved in a court case. He was in court on 12 Jul 1642 at Gloucester. Isabel and her sons had moved to Gloucester by June 1642 when James Babson, along with Abraham Robinson, an early settler of Gloucester, and William Brown "of Gloucester" were involved in a court case. William Browne later married Abraham's widow, Mary. Robinson, Browne, and jam,es Babson all brought suit against Thomas Ruck for taking up his skiff.
James Babson of Gloucester being by God's providence visited with sickness and weakness made his will Dec. 4, 1683, which was proved Mar. 25, 1684 - New Year's Day as time was then reckoned. To his wife he gave all except what I do hereafter dispose of. To his son John Babson he gave two acres which his house standeth upon against the Harbour in Gloucester. To all the rest of my children-not named-five shillings apiece. His son, Philip Babson, to be executor. The inventory was taken Dec. 21, 1683, and amounted to 111pounds, 16 shillings. (Essex Probate Files, 1183).
Eleanor Babson, widow, and executrix of the estate of James Babson, late of Gloucester, cooper, deceased, for 10 pounds sells my loving sister Abigail Hill, widow and administratrix of the estate of my brother John Hill, late of Beverly, cooper, deceased, on condition that Ann Babson, only child of my son, Philip Babson, deceased, shall receive of the heirs of the said Abigail all my rights of 10 pounds in the estate of my brothers John Hill aforesaid, dated Aug. 5, 1708. (Essex County Deeds, 20:120.)
James Babson received the above mentioned grant of land in Gloucester, Dec. 23, 1658, as follows:
"Given to James Babson twelve acres of frsh meadow lying above the Mill, also twenty acres of upland lying by the side of it." This was where he and his wife settled and was known as the James Babson farm. It was here that he built the little stone cooperage shop, still standing today, which is open to visitors every summer at Gloucester. James, a cooper, made barrels that were taken to Good Harbor Beach, filled with fish, and shipped to England and the West Indies. Roger W. Babson's research indicated that James Babson's stone shop was the first factory on Cape Ann.
On this land he settled and it finally passed into the possession of Thomas Witham, who married his youngest daughter, Abigail. In that family it has remained ever since. So stated John James Babson in 1876.
He sold eight acres of upland-six being on the eastern side of Long Poynt and two at said Long Poynt, to William Haskell, Mar. 14, 1671/72 his wife Eleanor signing with him. (Essex County Deeds, 22:263)
James Babson deposed May 5, 1663, stating that he was 30 years of age (Esex County Court Records, 3:40)
He gave ten shillings to the present maintenance of Brother Millet in 1657. (Ibid 2:64) Brother Millet was Thomas Millet, ruling elder in the First Church of Gloucester.
Walter Tibbetts of Gloucester made his will June 5, 1651, and among his bequests was this: "I give to Elnor Bapsene the wife of James Bapsene forti shelbens."
JAMES2 BABSON (Isabel1) was born, probably in England, about 1620-23. He died in Gloucester, Mass., 21 Dec. 1683. He married in Gloucester, 16 Nov. 1647, ELINOR HILL, born probably in Bristol, England, about 1629-30 and died, as his widow, in Gloucester, 14 March 1713/14, aged about 84.
The discovery of a civil suit involving James Babson, which was dated 12 July 1642, helps establish the true age of James. At one time it was believed James was born about 1633 because his age had erroneously been recorded as about "30" in a 1663 court case, but certainly that age was incorrect - a conclusion verified by the following court record: On 12 July 1642, Abraham Robinson, one of the first settlers of Gloucester, William Browne, who later married Abraham Robinson's widow, Mary, and James Babson all brought suit against Thomas Ruck for taking up a skiff. (Essex County Court Records I: 43, 159) This proves that his birth date could not have been 1633 because that would have placed his age at 9 in 1642.
One of the early records involving James was on 8 March 1657 when he gave ten shillings toward the maintenance of "Brother" Thomas Millet, the Teaching Elder of the First Church of Gloucester. (Ibid. II: 64)
On the 28th of December 1658 James was granted "twelve acres of fresh meadow [at Beaver Dam] lying above the Mill, also twenty acres of upland lying by the side of it." (Gloucester Town Records 1: 71) This was where he and his wife settled and was known as the James Babson farm. It was here that he built the little stone cooperage shop, still standing today and open to visitors every summer. The barrels he made here were taken to Good Harbor Beach, filled with fish and shipped to England, the West Indies, etc. Roger W. Babson's research indicated that James Babson's stone shop was the first factory on Cape Ann.
When James Babson's neighbor, John Jackson, was accused of lascivious behavior toward his own maid, Mary Somes, James and 26 other Gloucester citizens made this testimony: "Gloster, this 6:7 mo. 1660, Wee whose hands are heare under writtenn doe testiefie that our nabor John Jacksonn, Sener, hath lived in our Towne Sevenn yeare or thereabought and behaved himselfe in good order soe fare as wee cann or could see and lived onestly, witness our hands." Following this was a list of 27 names, including James (his mark) Babson's. Only 14 of the 27 could sign their names. (Essex County Court Records II: 237)
In a court case of Mr. Peter Duncan vs. Thomas Verry for a debt, James Babson testified on 5 May 1663 that "last spring Mr. Duncan sent for Tho. Very to go to deponent's house ... Said Very declared he would not deliver the boat nor pay him until Duncan had given an account of particulars" (Ibid. III: 40) James Babson's age, which was given as 30, must have been a clerical error for 40. A birth date of 1633 would have supposed him to have been born when his mother was in her mid-fifties and to have married when he was only 14.
On 14 March 1671/2 he sold eight acres of upland, six being on the east side of "Long Point" and two at said "Long Poynt" to William Haskell, his wife Elinor signing with him. (Essex County Deeds 22: 263)
James Babson made his will on 4 Dec. 1683. It was probated on 25 March 1684, New Year's Day at that time. To his wife he gave all except two acres, which he gave to his son "which his house standeth upon against the Harbour in Gloucester." To his other children he left 5 shillings each. His son, Phillip, was to be executor.
The inventory, which was taken on 21 Dec. 1683, included:
"Houses and upland and Marsh, fresh & salt £52.10
other pieces of land in the harbor 10.0-
Cattle, great and small 30.16
one mare £1; swine great and small 2.10
beds & bedding 6.-
pots, kettle & frying pan £1;
pewter 10s.
guns & sword, bullets & bullet mould 2.0-
barrels, chest & other lumber 10s.
one cart and sled, one plough and tackling and other husbandry tools 3.10
wearing apparel 1.10
Total: £111.16s.
(Essex County Probate #1183)
On 18 Feb. 1683/4, Elinor, widow of James Babson, deceased, paid 3 pounds sterling to Isaac Elwell and wife, Mehitable, for one acre of marsh at Starknaught Harbor (Essex County Deeds 66:222).
Elinor "Bapson", widow, executrix of the estate of James "Bapson", late of Gloucester, cooper, deceased, for 10 pounds sold to "my loving sister, Abigail Hill, widow and administratrix of the estate of my brother, John Hill, late of Beverly, cooper, deceased, shall receive of the heirs of the said Abigail all my right of 10 pounds in the estate of my brother, John Hill, aforesaid." Dated 5 Aug. 1708. (Ibid., 20:180)
Elinor's older brother was Zebulon Hill, who married in Gloucester on 16 Nov. 1651, Elizabeth Dyke, daughter of Agnes (Tybott) Dyke Clarke. She was the granddaughter of Walter Tybott, who left 40 shillings to Elinor Hill Babson on 5 June 1651. Zebulon Hill and his younger brother, John, were coopers from Bristol, England. Before Zebulon moved to Salem from Gloucester in 1657, the Hills and Babsons were neighbors and perhaps they worked with James at this trade. John Hill married Abigail Woodbury, daughter of John Woodbury, (who had sued Isabel Babson in 1639) and died in Beverly, 9 Feb. 1708, aged 73. It is possible Elinor's father was named Philip Hill, since both Elinor and Zebulon named a son "Philip."
After James died in 1683, his widow, Elinor, lived with her daughter, Abigail, and son-in-law, Thomas Witham. Elinor, in appreciation, gave them land situated at "The Farms" near her own residence. In 1697 John Ring "as the agent, it is said, of Thomas Witham, bought the Babson Farm at the Little Good Harbor." (John J. Babson, History of the Town of Gloucester, pp. 132, 180; hereafter this will be cited as Babson, Gloucester).

General Notes: Wife - Elinor Hill
After James Babson died in 1683, Elinor lived with her daughter Abigail and son-in-law Thomas Witham. In appreciation, Elinor gave them land near her own residence at The Farms, Gloucester.
Elinor Hill served as executor for the will of James Babson on 4 Dec 1683 at Gloucester.
On 18 Feb 1683/84 Elinor, widow of James Babson, deceased, paid 3 pounds sterling to Isaac Elwell "with ye Consent of My Wife Mehitabel Elwell" who sold her one acre of marsh located at Stark Naught Harbou, so called. She was granted Elenor Babson of Gloucester, widow, and releck [sic] of James Babson deceased "for the Love and affection that I bear unto Richard babson of glocester in new egalnd...my own naturall son..." gave Richard "all thatmy farme or Tenement where I do now dwell it being formerly the estate of my husband James babson aforesd & given by him in his Last will and testament unto me..." For this Richard was to maintain his mother during the remainder of her natural life on 13 Aug 1695.
Ellenor Bason is named in the will of Walter Tibbott ofGloucester, allowed 19 October 1652, with a bequest of 40 Shillings.
General Notes: Child - James Babson
His brothers were seaman and the probability is that he was also a seaman. In the Prerogative Court in London is the will of one John Martin,of New England, bachelor, who departed this life on the high seas, June 4, 1673. He made his will on June 3, 1673, which was proved in London,Feb. 5, 1673/74. He made the following bequests, viz. to Jeremy Jackson one dollar; to William Godfrie two dollars; to Steven Swasey one dollar; to Richard Sanders six pence; to John Shewt (Shute) six pence; to John Hill sixteen shillings; "to James Babson my consort I give my wages that is due to me for my service in his Majesty's ship the Jersey, with all the rest of my goods, money or what else I possess in this ship." (Water's Gleanings in England, 2:1288.)
This seems to place James Babson, then in his twenty fifth year, as a consort of John Martin of New England and in the ship Jersey on the high seas, June 3, 1673. He does not appear later in New England.
He worked as a cooper. He no doubt learned these skills from his father back in New England.
General Notes: Child - Phillip Babson
Phillip Babson and Hannah Baker were married 22 Oct 1689 at Beverly, Mr. John Hawthorn officiating.
He and Hannah lived at Beverly in 1684/85 whwn Philip was chosen checker of fish by selectman. He and Hannah lived at Salem in 1689, but subsequently returned to Beverly. His date and place of death has not been determined.
General Notes: Child - Thomas Babson
Thomas Babson, among many Gloucester people, took a oath of fidelity as a seaman, at a Court held in Salem, Jan. 29, 1677/78. (Essex County Records and Files 6:402). Edmond or Edward Ashley brought suit against Timothy Clarke, commander of the ship "Sea Venture" for false imprisonment and Timothy Clarke brought a counter suit in the same court against Ashley for refusing to pay 27 shillings from the wages of Thomas Babson, deceased, for satisfaction of the wages of the "Indeavour" in the last voyage at Salatudes, Ashley having received the full wages of said Babson, deceased, at Terudes, May 23, 1679.
Thomas Babson was a Hampton,NH soldier in King Philip's War. He was in Capt. William Turner's Company from April 7, 1676.
The Town Records of Gloucester show that Mar. 16, 1695/96, John Babson had given to him a lot thatfell to his brother, Thomas Babson, when the lots were granted to soldiers at Kettle Cove which was laid out to John Babson, Feb. 11, 1696/97. (Suffolk Court Files, 3418)
His brother John Babson was claimant to his rights in Narraganset No. 3, Soughegan West (now Amherst), NH in 1728 and drew lot 63. (Bodge's Soldiers in King Philip's War, 240, 421 and Secomb's History of Amherst, NH 33). The inference is that he died unmarried, before May 23, 1679, as his brother inherited his rights in lands in 1728. It is clear that there were no children of his living in 1728.
General Notes: Child - John Babson
The marriage of John Babson and Dorcas Elwell was performed by Rev. John Emerson and is the earliest one solemnized by a minister on the Gloucester Town Records.
He was variously called in the records mariner, tailor, shoreman, and wood-coaster. In 1718 he was living on the lot at the Harbor that belonged to his grandmother, one half of which, in that year, he gave to his son, John Babson, in consideration "of that natural love and parental affection which I have and do beare unto my Son John Babson Junr of said Glocester in ye County aforesd Seaman as Also for his dutifull Carriage & behavr towards me & to Incourage him Still to take care of an be helpfull to me in my old age in case I shall Stand in need and being Willing to Settle him in some part of Estate I have given granted..unto him ye sd John Babson my Son...Immediately after my Decease about one acre of Land Situate in sd Gloceste anf Lying near ye harbour part of which Land lyeth on ye Southwardly & part on ye northwardly Side of ye highway that Leadeth along by ye Side of ye Hahbour it being one half of all that parcell of Land called or accounted my homestead on which I now Dwell." He raised his grandson Capt. James Babson after his son's death in 1720.
John3 Babson (6) (James2, Thomas1); born 27 Nov 1660 at Gloucester;85 married Dorcas Elwell, daughter of Josiah Elwell and Mary Collins, 8 Nov 1686 at Gloucester, Rev. John Emerson officiating;86 died Jun 1737 at Gloucester at age 76.87
At Ipswich on 30 Sep 1679 John Babson (6) deposed at Court that he was 18 years of age.88
Their marriage was the first solemnized by a minister to be entered as such in the Gloucester Town Records.
In the distribution of town lands, John received a six acre lot on 27 Feb 1688 at Gloucester.89 In 1695 John Babson (6) was granted a two or three acre tract of land "to sett up fishing upon," which led to the settlement at Sandy Point, now part of the town of Rockport.90 By further grants as well as purchase he obtained 27 more acres in the area "which he held several years and probably improved in carrying on the fishery."91 He "being by virtue of Marriage interested in ye Estate of Josiah Elwell deceased do by these presents with the Consent of Dorchas [sic] my wife" sell, for £20, to her brothers Elias and Josiah Elwell "all my Right Claime Title & Interest which I and my wife now have" in the estate of her father on 20 Apr 1710.92
During May and June 1711 eleven sloops were employed to carry 516 cords of wharf wood to Mr. Stephen Minot at Boston at a cost of £1.6 per cord. The smallest of these sloops, carrying 9 cords, was that of John Babson.93
The records of Essex County and the Town of Gloucester variously call John a mariner, wood-coaster, shoreman, and tailor.
On 15 Oct 1717 at Gloucester John (#34) executed a deed conveying land that had belonged to Isabel to his son, John (#49). To All Christian People to whom this present Deed of gift Shall come John Babson, Senr of Glocester in ye County of Essex in New England Marriner for and in Consideration of the Naturall love and parentall affection which I have and doe bear unto my Son John Babson Junr of sd Glocester in ye County aforesd Seaman as Also for his dutifull Carriage & behavr of himself towards me & to Incourage him Still to take care of an be helpfull to me in my old age in case I shall Stand in need and being Willing to Settle him in some part of Estate I have given granted ... unto him ye sd John Babson my Son ...

James Babson (12) after his son's death in 1720.
John Babson (6) previously owned the land sold by Ruth Lovett on 22 Nov 1743 at Gloucester; Ruth Somes, alias Babson, admin'x on the Estate of her husband "James Babson, late of Gloucester, mariner, deceased" sold to John Babson (#14), [son of John (#10) and Hannah (Hodgkins) Babson] a tenement at Gloucester on the Harbour between the two streets consisting of one house and one-half acre of land, "being part of homestead of John Babson, deceased, father of James Babson, deceased, bounded E. by Capt. John Prince, s. on Forestreet and N. on New or Meeting House Street."95
Dorcas Elwell was born on 18 Jun 1667 at Beverly.96 She died in Jun 1737 at Gloucester.97
Dorcas Elwell consented to selling land to her brothers that was part of her father's estate on 20 Apr 1710.98
General Notes: Child - Richard Babson
Richard was granted "six acres of upland ground at the cape and it fell out to by Lott to be the Twenty first Lott in number" on 27 Feb 1687/88 at Gloucester. He was granted "one acre between the high hill and the highway that leads to Norman's Oh, not to prejudice the way that comes out of the wood" at Gloucester. He was granted "4 acres of swampy ground above the Long Bridge" at Gloucester after 1688. He received a grant of land from his mother, Elinor Hill, in exchange for her maintenance on 13 Aug 1695.
On 11 May 1696 at Gloucester, Richard sold about a quarter acre of land to his brother-in-law, Thomas Witham, located adjacent to land Thomas had already received from his mother-in-law, Eleanor Babson. He sold John Smith, Senr, a common right in Gloucester at Gloucester on May 24, 1697.
Richard sold lot #60 to John Smith, Senr on 09 May 1709 at Gloucester.
On 26 Aug 1712 Richard sold land at Ipswich to Jacob Davis on the south side of the road leading to Chebacco in Ipswich.

General Notes: Husband - Thomas Babson
1. Thomas1 Babson (1); born most likely at Somersetshire, England; married Isabel (--?--) circa 1605 most likely at Somersetshire, England; died 1630 at Wookey Parish, Somersetshire, England; buried 28 Dec 1630 at Wookey Parish, Somersetshire, England, located just to the southwest of Wells.1
Isabel (--?--) was born circa 1580 at England, based on her age at death. She died on 6 Apr 1661 at Gloucester. Mr. Chamberlain, in the 1934 Babson Genealogy, stated that she was aged 81 years at the time of her death, however no source was given for this statement.2 She was buried in 1661 at Gloucester although the exact location of her grave is unknown. A simple stone has been placed in the ancient Bridge Street Burying Ground in memory of this courageous woman, an honored and beloved citizen of her community, whose memory lives on as an inspiration to her many descendants. This stone gives her birth date as 1 July 1579. Her estate went through probate on 25 Jun 1661 at Gloucester.3,4
The surname of Babson is extremely rare in England. It is possible that after Isabel and her sons left there was no other family that bore the name of Babson left in the country. When one considers that in 1637 Isabel was a widow with a married daughter, two unmarried sons, aged 25 and 15, and had lost her youngest daughter three years previously, it is not surprising that she elected to undertake a new life in the colonies. One may also add the fact that there had been serious outbreaks of the plague in England as well as an unsettling economic depression and "harassment by overzealous Church officials."5
The Weymouth Port Lists do not tell us the name of the vessel aboard which they came, but the Captain was John Driver, and they sailed from Weymouth, England in April of 1637.6 Isabel arrived at New England with her sons Richard and James.7 She lived first at Salem. The earliest known record of her in this country is dated 25 September 1637 and appears in the Salem town records. "Isabell Babson desires admittance to become an inhabitant." Isabel probably first settled at Salem as it was her port of disembarkation. The only information concerning her four years there emerges from two court cases.8
Isabel (--?--) served her community as a midwife.
Isabel (--?--) was in court on 24 Sep 1639 at Salem. John Woodbury, Peter Palfrey and John Balch, three of the Salem selectmen, brought a civil suit against her. Although the records do not specify the charge, this type of case often involved property.9 Isabel and her son James were still at Salem in 1641. She was in court on 29 Jun 1641 at Salem when she brought suit against John White. Samuel Colborne testified on the case. Although no specifics are given, the usual suits involved debts, defamations, trespassing, mending of fences, allowing "tippling" at one's house, etc.10 She was in court before Jun 1642
They had moved to Gloucester by June of 1642 when James Babson, along with Abraham Robinson and William Brown "of Gloucester" were involved in a court case This move may have been brought about by the arrival from England during this time period of her daughter Joan (Babson) Collins, with her husband John, and their children. It is also possible that the town officials of Gloucester offered her inducements to settle there because of her profession of midwifery.
After Jul 1642 Isabel (--?--) purchased land at what is now at 75-77 Front Street, Gloucester. The lot at Gloucester Harbor, which Isabel bought from Gloucester selectman Thomas Milward, had formerly belonged to Thomas Ashley. Ashley's lot had been attached by Mr. Milward on 12 July 1642 in the first insolvency case in the Essex County Courts. Isabel probably purchased this lot soon after July 1642. A portion of this lot is situated at what is now 75-77 Front Street and continued in the family about a century and a half.11
Isabel (--?--) was granted land in 1644 at Main Street, Gloucester. Her dwelling, a little to the west of Porter Street, was located at what is now 69 Main Street.
Isabel (--?--) was in court again on 30 Mar 1657 at Gloucester. Her descendants are most fortunate in having an extraordinary account in Isabel's own words fully preserved from a record -- a distinction reserved generally for a Winthrop or a Spotswood or other colonial governors. As a neighbor and midwife, Isabel had been asked to testify in a scandalous court case in which Thomas and Margaret Prince accused William Browne of causing the death of "Goodie" Prince's unborn child. William Browne was found guilty and was forced "to lie in prison one week and be fined twenty marks and pay costs to Thomas Prince etc." These words of Isabel afford us the only true glimpse into her character, her religious beliefs, her compassion, her medical knowledge. The fact that she was literate is verified by her ability to sign her name, a true achievement in her day.12 Administration on the estate of Isabel Babson, widow, late deceased, was granted to her son, James Babson, on 25: 4: 1661 [25 June 1661]. The inventory of the estate of Isable Babson of Glositer, taken by Samuel Delaber [Doliver] and Phillip Stainwood and sworn to in court by James Babson, before Hilliard Veren, cleric: "The Vallue of those lands and goods com to twenty seven pounds, six shillings" on 9 Apr 1661. As a tribute to her memory, Roger W. Babson established the Isabel Babson Memorial Library on Main Street, which specializes in books for expectant mothers.

General Notes: Child - Richard Babson
He accompanied his mother and brother to New England in 1637, and returned to England.
After 1637 Richard Babson and his family resided at Stepney section, East London, England, an area of seaman on the shores of the Thames River. Except for the record of his marriage, the birth of four children and the death of one, no further record of his family has yet been found.
General Notes: Child - James Babson
He came to New England in April 1637 from Weymouth, England with his mother and brother aboard a vessel commanded by John Driver. He lived with Isabel (--?--) and Ricahrad Babson at Salem on 25 Sep 1637. He lived with Isabel (--?--) at Salem in 1641.
They had moved to Gloucester by June of 1642 when James Babson along with Abraham Robinson and William Brown "of Gloucester" were involved in a court case. He was in court on 12 Jul 1642 at Gloucester. Isabel and her sons had moved to Gloucester by June 1642 when James Babson, along with Abraham Robinson, an early settler of Gloucester, and William Brown "of Gloucester" were involved in a court case. William Browne later married Abraham's widow, Mary. Robinson, Browne, and jam,es Babson all brought suit against Thomas Ruck for taking up his skiff.
James Babson of Gloucester being by God's providence visited with sickness and weakness made his will Dec. 4, 1683, which was proved Mar. 25, 1684 - New Year's Day as time was then reckoned. To his wife he gave all except what I do hereafter dispose of. To his son John Babson he gave two acres which his house standeth upon against the Harbour in Gloucester. To all the rest of my children-not named-five shillings apiece. His son, Philip Babson, to be executor. The inventory was taken Dec. 21, 1683, and amounted to 111pounds, 16 shillings. (Essex Probate Files, 1183).
Eleanor Babson, widow, and executrix of the estate of James Babson, late of Gloucester, cooper, deceased, for 10 pounds sells my loving sister Abigail Hill, widow and administratrix of the estate of my brother John Hill, late of Beverly, cooper, deceased, on condition that Ann Babson, only child of my son, Philip Babson, deceased, shall receive of the heirs of the said Abigail all my rights of 10 pounds in the estate of my brothers John Hill aforesaid, dated Aug. 5, 1708. (Essex County Deeds, 20:120.)
James Babson received the above mentioned grant of land in Gloucester, Dec. 23, 1658, as follows:
"Given to James Babson twelve acres of frsh meadow lying above the Mill, also twenty acres of upland lying by the side of it." This was where he and his wife settled and was known as the James Babson farm. It was here that he built the little stone cooperage shop, still standing today, which is open to visitors every summer at Gloucester. James, a cooper, made barrels that were taken to Good Harbor Beach, filled with fish, and shipped to England and the West Indies. Roger W. Babson's research indicated that James Babson's stone shop was the first factory on Cape Ann.
On this land he settled and it finally passed into the possession of Thomas Witham, who married his youngest daughter, Abigail. In that family it has remained ever since. So stated John James Babson in 1876.
He sold eight acres of upland-six being on the eastern side of Long Poynt and two at said Long Poynt, to William Haskell, Mar. 14, 1671/72 his wife Eleanor signing with him. (Essex County Deeds, 22:263)
James Babson deposed May 5, 1663, stating that he was 30 years of age (Esex County Court Records, 3:40)
He gave ten shillings to the present maintenance of Brother Millet in 1657. (Ibid 2:64) Brother Millet was Thomas Millet, ruling elder in the First Church of Gloucester.
Walter Tibbetts of Gloucester made his will June 5, 1651, and among his bequests was this: "I give to Elnor Bapsene the wife of James Bapsene forti shelbens."
JAMES2 BABSON (Isabel1) was born, probably in England, about 1620-23. He died in Gloucester, Mass., 21 Dec. 1683. He married in Gloucester, 16 Nov. 1647, ELINOR HILL, born probably in Bristol, England, about 1629-30 and died, as his widow, in Gloucester, 14 March 1713/14, aged about 84.
The discovery of a civil suit involving James Babson, which was dated 12 July 1642, helps establish the true age of James. At one time it was believed James was born about 1633 because his age had erroneously been recorded as about "30" in a 1663 court case, but certainly that age was incorrect - a conclusion verified by the following court record: On 12 July 1642, Abraham Robinson, one of the first settlers of Gloucester, William Browne, who later married Abraham Robinson's widow, Mary, and James Babson all brought suit against Thomas Ruck for taking up a skiff. (Essex County Court Records I: 43, 159) This proves that his birth date could not have been 1633 because that would have placed his age at 9 in 1642.
One of the early records involving James was on 8 March 1657 when he gave ten shillings toward the maintenance of "Brother" Thomas Millet, the Teaching Elder of the First Church of Gloucester. (Ibid. II: 64)
On the 28th of December 1658 James was granted "twelve acres of fresh meadow [at Beaver Dam] lying above the Mill, also twenty acres of upland lying by the side of it." (Gloucester Town Records 1: 71) This was where he and his wife settled and was known as the James Babson farm. It was here that he built the little stone cooperage shop, still standing today and open to visitors every summer. The barrels he made here were taken to Good Harbor Beach, filled with fish and shipped to England, the West Indies, etc. Roger W. Babson's research indicated that James Babson's stone shop was the first factory on Cape Ann.
When James Babson's neighbor, John Jackson, was accused of lascivious behavior toward his own maid, Mary Somes, James and 26 other Gloucester citizens made this testimony: "Gloster, this 6:7 mo. 1660, Wee whose hands are heare under writtenn doe testiefie that our nabor John Jacksonn, Sener, hath lived in our Towne Sevenn yeare or thereabought and behaved himselfe in good order soe fare as wee cann or could see and lived onestly, witness our hands." Following this was a list of 27 names, including James (his mark) Babson's. Only 14 of the 27 could sign their names. (Essex County Court Records II: 237)
In a court case of Mr. Peter Duncan vs. Thomas Verry for a debt, James Babson testified on 5 May 1663 that "last spring Mr. Duncan sent for Tho. Very to go to deponent's house ... Said Very declared he would not deliver the boat nor pay him until Duncan had given an account of particulars" (Ibid. III: 40) James Babson's age, which was given as 30, must have been a clerical error for 40. A birth date of 1633 would have supposed him to have been born when his mother was in her mid-fifties and to have married when he was only 14.
On 14 March 1671/2 he sold eight acres of upland, six being on the east side of "Long Point" and two at said "Long Poynt" to William Haskell, his wife Elinor signing with him. (Essex County Deeds 22: 263)
James Babson made his will on 4 Dec. 1683. It was probated on 25 March 1684, New Year's Day at that time. To his wife he gave all except two acres, which he gave to his son "which his house standeth upon against the Harbour in Gloucester." To his other children he left 5 shillings each. His son, Phillip, was to be executor.
The inventory, which was taken on 21 Dec. 1683, included:
"Houses and upland and Marsh, fresh & salt £52.10
other pieces of land in the harbor 10.0-
Cattle, great and small 30.16
one mare £1; swine great and small 2.10
beds & bedding 6.-
pots, kettle & frying pan £1;
pewter 10s.
guns & sword, bullets & bullet mould 2.0-
barrels, chest & other lumber 10s.
one cart and sled, one plough and tackling and other husbandry tools 3.10
wearing apparel 1.10
Total: £111.16s.
(Essex County Probate #1183)
On 18 Feb. 1683/4, Elinor, widow of James Babson, deceased, paid 3 pounds sterling to Isaac Elwell and wife, Mehitable, for one acre of marsh at Starknaught Harbor (Essex County Deeds 66:222).
Elinor "Bapson", widow, executrix of the estate of James "Bapson", late of Gloucester, cooper, deceased, for 10 pounds sold to "my loving sister, Abigail Hill, widow and administratrix of the estate of my brother, John Hill, late of Beverly, cooper, deceased, shall receive of the heirs of the said Abigail all my right of 10 pounds in the estate of my brother, John Hill, aforesaid." Dated 5 Aug. 1708. (Ibid., 20:180)
Elinor's older brother was Zebulon Hill, who married in Gloucester on 16 Nov. 1651, Elizabeth Dyke, daughter of Agnes (Tybott) Dyke Clarke. She was the granddaughter of Walter Tybott, who left 40 shillings to Elinor Hill Babson on 5 June 1651. Zebulon Hill and his younger brother, John, were coopers from Bristol, England. Before Zebulon moved to Salem from Gloucester in 1657, the Hills and Babsons were neighbors and perhaps they worked with James at this trade. John Hill married Abigail Woodbury, daughter of John Woodbury, (who had sued Isabel Babson in 1639) and died in Beverly, 9 Feb. 1708, aged 73. It is possible Elinor's father was named Philip Hill, since both Elinor and Zebulon named a son "Philip."
After James died in 1683, his widow, Elinor, lived with her daughter, Abigail, and son-in-law, Thomas Witham. Elinor, in appreciation, gave them land situated at "The Farms" near her own residence. In 1697 John Ring "as the agent, it is said, of Thomas Witham, bought the Babson Farm at the Little Good Harbor." (John J. Babson, History of the Town of Gloucester, pp. 132, 180; hereafter this will be cited as Babson, Gloucester).

<<<<<continued from Notes for Rev. Stephen Bachiler, husband of Ann Bate>>>>>
...Upon this the pastor, etc., required the separate members to deliver their grievances in writing, which they refusing to do, the pastor, etc., wrote to all the churches, that for this cause, they were purposed to proceed against them as persons excommunicated; and therefore desired them to stay their journey, etc. This letter being read at a lecture at Boston (where some of the elders of every church were present), they all agreed (with consent of their churches) to go presently to Sagus, to stay this hasty proceeding, etc. Accordingly, being met, and both parties (after much debate being heard, it was agreed that they were a true church, though not constituted, at first, in due order, yet after consent and practise of a church estate, had supplied that defect; and so all were reconciled. *[Ibid., I. * 157.]
He was admitted a freeman May 6, 1635. It seems quite probable that he was the minister who dissented from the order of banishment of Roger Williams in October, 1635 *[Winthrop's N.E., I.,* 170,171.] as his opinions are known to have agreed closely with those of Williams, and no minister of the twelve churches then established possessed his courage in maintaining unpopular opinions. It is to be considered also that he had previously been disciplined for departure from the established customs, and within three months was again in trouble from the same cause. In January, 1635-6, says Winthrop, "Mr Batcheller of Sagus was convented before the magistrates. The cause was, for that, coming out of England with a small body of six or seven persons, and having since received in many more at Sagus, and contention growing between him and the greatest part of his church who had, with the rest, received him for their pastor), he desired dismission for himself and his first members, which being granted, upon supposition that he would leave the town (as he had given out), he with the said six or seven persons presently renewed their old covenant, intending to raise another church in Sagus; whereat the most and chief of the town being offended, for that it would cross their intentions of calling Mr. Peter or some other minister, they complained to the magistrates, who, foreseeing the distraction which was like to come by this course, had forbidden him to proceed in any such church way until the cause were considered by the other ministers, etc. But he refused to desist. Whereupon they sent for him, and upon his delay, day after day, the marshall was sent to fetch him. *[The arrest of a minister by a marshal caused much gossip throughout the country. See Rev. James Parker's protest to Gov. Winthrop on being so arrested. Mass. Hist. Coll. Fourth Series, Vol. VII., 441] Upon his appearance and submission and promise to remove out of the town within three months he was discharged." *[Winthrop's N.E., I., * 176.] Peter however refused to settle at Lynn, preferring Salem.
These distractions in the Sagus church continued until Christmas, 1635, when a general fast was proclaimed, for that cause and others and presumably continued until February, 1636, when Bachiler left Lynn and went to Ipswich, where he received a grant of fifty acres of land and prospect of settlement, but from some reason, not yet explained, the plan miscarried. It was about this time, on the 17th of April, 1637, that Rev. R. Stansby writes Rev. John Wilson from England that he is grieved that "Others laye downe the ministry and become private members, as Mr. Bacheler, Mr. Jenner, and Mr. Nathan Ward, &c." He adds that this fact and others of like nature were now much talked about, and that many worthy people were prevented from emigrating to New England for these reasons, and suggests that greater liberty be granted in the admission of members to the church." *[Mass. Hist. Coll., Fourth Series, Vol. VII., 10, 11, 12.]
Under Mo. 1, 1637-8 Winthrop says, "Another plantation was now in hand at Mattakeese (now Yarmouth), six miles beyond Sandwich. The undertaker of this was one Mr. Batchellor, late pastor at Sagus (since called Lynn), being about seventy-six years of age; yet he walked thither on foot in a very hard season. He and his company, being all poor men, finding the difficulty, gave it over, and others undertook it." *[Winthrop's N. E., I., * 260.]
The inducement which led him to attempt a settlement at Yarmouth was undoubtedly the fact that in 1637 a large number of his former parishers removed from Lynn and commenced a settlement at Sandwich, near Yarmouth, under a grant from Plymouth Colony. *Lewis's Hist. Lynn. 169.] Bachiler's settlement is said to have been made in that part of Barnstable (then Yarmouth) called Old Town, and was about one hundred miles from Ipswich where he resided.
His next removal was to Newbury, where, on the 6th of July, 1638, the town made him a grant of land, and on the 7th of October, 1638, the General Court of Massachusetts, in order to be rid of a troublesome pastor and also to strengthen their claim to the territory more than three miles north of the Merrimac, granted Mr. Stephen Bachiler and his company, who had petitioned therefor, liberty to begin a plantation at Winnicunnet, now called Hampton, N.H. On Tuesday, October 16, 1638, the settlement was begun, the journey from Newbury being made in a shallop. On the 7th of June, 1639, Winnacunnet was made a town, and further about the same time the said plantation (upon Mr. Bachiler's request made known to the court) was named Hampton. *[N.H. Provincial Papers, vol. 1, p. 151.] This name was almost probably given in honor of Hampton, that is, Southampton, in England. The addition "South" was a late addition to distinguish this town from Hampton in Mercia. Winthrop in his History of New England repeatedly refers to Southampton as Hampton. *[Winthrop's N. E., vol. 1, page 2 et seq.] It will also be remembered that South Stoneham, adjoining Southampton, and in the gift of St. Mary's of Southampton, was the last residence of Mr. Bachiler in England. In 1639 the inhabitants of Ipswich voted to give Mr. Bachiler sixty acres of upland and twenty acres of meadow, if he would reside with them three years. He preferred his settlement at Hampton. On the 5th of July, 1639, he and Christopher Hussey sold their houses and lands in Newbury for (six score pounds," and thereafter his entire interest was with the Hampton settlement. The town in 1639 granted their pastor three hundred acres of land for a farm besides his house lot, and he gave them a bell for the meeting house. This bell remained in use until about February 15, 1703-4, when the town voted that the selectmen should agree with William Partridge Esq., to procure the town a good one from England of about one hundred and thirtie weight and that they send to him the ould bell that is splitt to make of that what the sd Mr. Partridg can towards the paying for a new one. *[Hampton Records, MSS. Vol. I., 175] The farm was laid out to him in the extreme southern limits of Hampton adjoining Salisbury. In the Hampton record book containing the grants in the year 1644 and 1658, copied according to the town vote, concerning the copy of grants with witnesses, if necessary, is the following:
To Steven Bachiler sometimes of Hampton.
1. Impr. nine acres & half of upland granted unto him, for a house lott: --
2. & five acres of upland aded to the south-east end thereof: fourtenth acres & half: granted unto him: laying between the upland of John Samborn towords the south-west; & the upland of Christopher hussey towords the north-east abutting upon the meeting-house green in pt & upland of John Samborn in pt towords the south-east: more or less as it is layd out.

...In 1639 Rev. Timothy Dalton became teacher of the church at Hampton, Mr. Bachiler remaining as pastor. From his arrival dates the fierce conflicts in the church, which must have prevented either minister from accomplishing any good in the community. The large portion of the worshippers sided with Mr. Dalton, having been his parishioners in England at Woolverstone, Ipswich, in Suffolk. *[REGISTER for 1885, page 288.]
This gave Dalton an advantage in the contest, though his opponent, educated in the most famous English university, of excellent natural abilities, a keen disputant, quick to attack the weak point in his enemy's armor, courageous and unyielding, was no mean antagonist. Bachiler was positive, earnest and convincing. He spoke as one having authority and from knowledge of th truth. Dalton was younger, more active, and perhaps more vehement, than his elder colleague. He was more politic than Bachiler, but fully as tenacious of his opinions. By his residence in Dedham he had learned the plans and desires of Massachusetts and earnestly espoused them. He had the powerful support of the Bay Colony and was perhaps made teacher of th Hampton church in order to combat the pastor's independent influence.
The history of this three-years contest between the pastor and teacher of the church at Hampton has nearly passed into obscurity. The town records show nothing concerning it. The church records of that date have disappeared. The only thing remaining is Winthrop's relation of the utterly improbable story that Mr. Bachiler, evidently esteemed of pure life at that time, at the age of four-score years solicited the chastity of his neighbor's wife. *[Winthrop's N. E., ii. *44,45.] Winthrop adds, apparently as a circumstance of aggravation, that Mr. Bachiler then had "a lusty, comely woman to his wife." This was evidently one of "the provoking matters" which Rev. Thomas Shepard advised Winthrop might be left to the judgment of others to publish when the copy of his history was privately examined. That Winthrop himself would have struck out this record, if he had been alive at its publication, is extremely probable. Consider for a moment the evidence against this accusation.
1. The advanced age of the accused and his previous good character almost certainly prove the story a fabrication.
2. The immorality of the settlers east of the Merrimack was urged as a reason why that region should come under Massachusetts rule. To support that statement numerous people in the two eastern colonies were charged with sexual crimes. It is doubtful if any of them were true, except in the case of Underhill, who was forgiven as soon as he had transferred his allegiance to the Bay, and perhaps Burdett, minister at Agamenticus, who was indicted for adultery.
3. Such solicitation was a criminal offence in thos days, punishable with severe penalties. *[Hugh Peter's letter to Winthrop, Mass. Hist. Coll. Fourth Series. Vol. VI. 40. Winthrop's N. E. I. *292 note. Id. I. *60. Mss. Court Records, Rockingham Co., N. H., passim.] No indictment was ever found against Mr. Bachiler and no charge ever made gainst him to any magistrate. On the contrary he charged his accusers with the crime of slander before the magistrates.
4. Early in 1644 Mr. Bachiler had a call to settle at Exeter. The path between Hampton and Exeter was short and easily travelled. Hampton gossip was repeated in Exeter in a few days. If the highly respectable people of Exeter had supposed ther was a scintilla of truth in the charges they would not have called the offender to be their pastor. Moreover the prohibition of the General Court of Massachusetts against Bachiler's settling at Exeter was based, not on his unfitness, but on the divided state of the Exeter church. *[REGISTER, Vol. I. 152.] If he had been supposed guilty of impurity it would have been a conclusive reason against his settlement at Exeter, and we can hardly suspect the General Court of dissembling and basing their action upon a weaker reason when a stronger existed. Such was not their usual custom.
5. But is said that he confessed the crime, though he afterwards denied it. If true, that would end all controversy. All writers on evidence declare that admissions or confessions are worthy of little credence unless made in the plainest terms and with the clearest understanding of the facts of the case. An examination of Winthrop's History would induce us to believe that New England was then full of all kinds of sexual crimes, and that nearly every person accused confessed his guilt. A slight examination of the acts, which were deemed confessions in thos days, show their utter untrustworthiness as evidence. To refuse to plead either guilty or not guilty was wrested into a confession. *[Mass. Hist. Coll. Fourth Series, Vol. VII. 585. It is evident that Bachiler never confessed in words. The charge was based on some alleged admission by conduct. The representation of Bachiler as a whiffling, inconstant man is entirely foreign to his character. Winthrop's words, "He stiffly denied it," clearly represent his disposition. He was a positive, obstinate, tenacious, unyielding man. When he made a statement he stood by his words and did not contradict them shortly after. It is almost impossible to believe that any excitement arising from the outrageousness of the charge, any indignation aroused by his innocence, or any fear caused by knowledge of guilt, could make him on a single occasion only in the course of his long and contentious life, uncertain and vacillating. He was evidently misunderstood and misrepresented. Probably the latter. The so-called confession had this basis and not more. Bachiler's project had failed. The Bay Colony had succeeded in its design against New Hampshire. The opposition to Bachiler in the church at Hampton, previously a majority, was greatly strengthened by the union of the provinces in 1641. Dalton had succeeded in excommunicating him. At last, wearied with the contest, Bachiler accepted the inevitable and agreed to remove "for peace's sake," as he wrote Winthrop. In order to justify to Winthrop their unlawful act in excommunicating Bachiler, Dalton and his adherents told Winthrop that Bachiler had confessed the truth of the charge and claimed that his offer to remove voluntarily was a confession of guilt. That this act was a confession was indignantly denied by the pastor, and so arose the charge that he confessed and then retracted his confession. What absurd constructions were given to words in those days in order to allege that a confession had been made can be seen by examining Wheelwright's letter in connection with the statement of the Massachusetts General Court in 1644, that Mr. Wheelwright had made "a particular, solemn and serious acknowledgment and confession of his evil carriages and of the Court's justice upon him for them"
Winthrop accepted as true the word of Bachiler's enemies, and neglected to give the aged pastor a hearing for his vindication, though urgently demanded.
6. The Hampton town records of this date are silent in regard to this matter, and the church records shave been missing for many years. They can give no testimony either way.
7. No tradition exists in Hampton or, so far as can be learned, has ever existed, giving the name of this woman or her husband, and no written evidence of any kind has ever been produced, except the story as preserved by Winthrop. Who was this woman? Was the complaint made promptly? Was her word worthy of credence? Was she of pure life? Did she persist in his declaration? Did she afterwards retract the charge? Did she live in Hampton many years afterwards, and was she during this time on friendly terms with the accused until his removal from town? We cannot test the truth of the charge by answers to these questions, for we have no evidence on these points.
8. During all this time Bachiler was carrying on a correspondence with Gov. Winthrop and members of his family. If he had confessed the crime Dalton would have promptly notified Winthrop of that fact, and Bachiler would soon have found that Winthrop knew it. On the contrary, at the end of the year 1643 we find him writing to the church at Boston that he does not see how he can leave Hampton until he has cleared and vindicated the wrongs he has suffered in the church of which he was still a member. He demands a trial of his allegations against Mr. Dalton and of Dalton's defence. He says that divers elders and brethren have looked slightly into the troubles, but there has never been a judicial trial of them.
He affirms that his excommunication was the foulest matter, both for the cause alleged and the real cause )even wrath and revenge). The proceedings of DAlton against him he declares to be monstrous and fearful.
Brook says "the supposition that the charges of immorality against Hugh Peter were true is inconsistent with the intimate relations which he is known to have sustained to many eminent men of unquestionable worth." *[Sprague's Am. Pulpit, Vol. I. 75.]
Would Winthrop and his family have been friends and correspondents of one whom they knew to be immoral?
9. It must be remembered that no charge is so easily made, so readily believed without proof, and so difficult to disprove. The allegation alone is frequently considered full proof. It was not incumbent on the accused to prove the negative, that he was not guilty. The burden of proof was on the complainant to make out a case, and it certainly never was proven. The testimony of the woman, aided by confession, would have made a strong case for the Colony in a criminal prosecution, and as the respondent could not testify it would have been impossible to produce any legal evidence in his behalf. This fact clearly indicates that no confession that could have been received in court was every made.
In a like case in 1642, supported by similar evidence, Rev. James Parker, then of Portsmouth, thought the matter not worthy of complain for lack of evidence, and did not report it to the Massachusetts magistrates. *[Mass. Hist. Coll., Fourth Series, Vol. VII. 441, 444.]
10. Nearly two years after his excommunication, the matter was referred to some magistrates and elders, and through their mediation he was released of his excommunication, but not received to his pastor's office. It is undoubtedly to this half undoing of the great wrong done him that Bachiler refers in his letter to the church in Boston in 1643, when he says, "Whiles my cause (tho looked sleitly into by diverse Elders & brethren) could never come to a judiciall searching forth of things, & an impartiall tryall of my allegations & his defence." *[Mass. Hist. Coll. Fourth Series, VII. 102.] Was not reversal of the punishment a vindication of the accused? That the mediators refused to restore him to his office of pastor was due to the divided state of the Hampton church, not to any delinquency on the pastor's part.
11. The year he was excommunicated he was chosen umpire in the important suit of Cleeve vs. Winter and Winter vs. Cleeve, involving title to the land now occupied by the city of Portland, Me. It is possible that this appointment was prior to his excommunication, but in 1643 he received a call to Casco. They must then have known the slander. Did they discredit it, or did they consider it no wrong?
12. Even Gove. Winthrop was evidently ashamed of the means used by Dalton to destroy the good name of Mr. Bachiler, as he adds to his account of the trouble, "his fellow elder Mr. Dalton (who indeed had not carried himself in this cause so well as became him and was brought to see his failing and acknowledged it to the elders of the other churches, who had taken much pains about this matter)." How unjustifiable must have been Dalton's conduct to induce Gov. Winthrop to censure him in this manner, when Dalton was his friend, perhaps his relative, certainly a relative of his son John Winthrop, and an orthodox Puritan, for acts done in interest of the Bay Colony.
The penitence of Dalton, however, could not undo the wrong to Bachiler. Was not the gift of most of her property to Nathaniel Bachiler, Senior, the grandson of Rev. Stephen, by the widow Ruth, relict of Rev. Timothy Dalton, evidence of an attempt on her part to atone as far as possible for the wrong done by her husband to Nathaniel's grandfather? *[Will of Ruth Dalton, Family MSS.]
We have thus briefly indicated a few of the improbabilities of the story as it has come down to us. It seems utterly unworthy of belief, and it may safely be charged to the bitterness of the disputes which then existed in religious and secular matters. The call to Casco, already mentioned, was received in the latter part of 1643. George Cleeve wrote Gov. Winthrop the 27th of the 11th month 1643 that "They (the inhabitants of Lygonia) seeing us about to settle our selves under the ministry, and that the Lord will gather a Church amongst us." *[Willis's Hist. Portland, 881.] Bachiler communicated with the church at Boston and received from the magistrates and elders a letter of advice urging the acceptance of the call, presumably because they were weary of the bickering at Hampton and thought it would be ended by the removal of Mr. Bachiler.
He replied to this letter of advice, under date of the "26th of this last m. 1643," objecting that his removal from Hampton to Casco was forced by unjust proceedings, as well as by an honorable calling from Casco and like honorable advice from the church in Boston. He states his unwillingness to accept the call before he has a hearing of his allegations against Dalton and asks for a full trial of the same. He said he had promised to go to Casco and confer with them in regard to the call about the last week of March, 1643-4. This call probably came from Cleeve, who had recently returned from England with a commission from Rigby as deputy president of Lygonia. While the call to Casco was under consideration, and very early in 1644, Mr. Bachiler received a call to Exeter.
By a letter, dated the 18th or 19th of this 3 m. 1644, written by Mr. Bachiler, we learn that the Massachusetts magistrates and elders shad considered this last call and had simply advised Mr. Bachiler to remove from Hampton, leaving him apparently free to choose which ever settlement he pleased. As he had not accepted the call to Casco he chose to settle at Exeter, and notified the Exeter church of his acceptance. He also voluntarily suggested to the Exeter people that they could not expect to maintain a church and minister long unless they made provision for a parsonage, and offered to contribute forty pounds, nearly the whole of his annual salary, toward the purchase of Mr. Wheelwright's house for that purpose. The day of the helper's meeting was agreed upon, and the persons and materials of their intended church. An unexpected event however was to prevent his settlement. The Bay Colony, discovering the intended settlement at Exeter, then within their jurisdiction, promptly forbade the gathering of a church there. Just ten days after receiving notice of the proposed settlement at Exeter, the General Court of Massachusetts, held at Boston May 29, 1644, adopted the following order:
"Whereas it appears to this Cort that some of the inhabitants of Exeter do intend shortly to gather a church, and call Mr Bachiler to be their minister, & forasmuch as the divisions & contentions weh are amonge the inhabitants there are indged by this Cor to bee such as for the present they cannot comfortably & wth approbation proceed in so weightly & sacred affaires, it is therefore ordered, that direction shalbe fourthwth sent to the said inhabitants to deferr the gathering of any church, or other such proceeding untill this Cort or the Cort at Ipswich (upon further satisfaction of their reconciliation & fitnes) shall give allowance thereunto." *[Mass. Colony Records {52.}]
That the true reason for the prohibition was stated in this order is evident because that reason could be inquired into by the Ipswich court, and upon evidence of their reconciliation and fitness the order of the General Court could be revoked. Winthrop gives the same reason and adds, "and beside Mr. Batchellor had been in three places before, and through his means, as was supposed, the churches fell to such divisions, as no peace could be till he was removed." * The General Court evidently did not care to put its opposition on that ground.
Accepting the inevitable Mr. Bachiler settled down at Hampton again. He was a church member, but probably did not preach...
Under date of July 15, 1644, Winthrop says, "The contentions in Hampton were grown to a great height, the whole town was divided into two factions, one with Mr. Batcheller, their late pastor, and the other with Mr. Dalton, their teacher, both men very passionate, and wanting discretion and moderation. Their differences; were not in matters of opinion, but of practise. Mr. Dalton's party being the most of the church, and so freemen, had great advantage of the other, though a considerable party, and some of them of the church also, whereby they carried all affairs both in church and town according to their own minds, and not with that respect to their brethren and neighbors which had been fit. Divers meetings had been both of magistrates and elders, and parties had been reconciled, but brake out presently again, each side being apt to take fire upon any provocation. Whereupon Mr. Batchellor was advised to remove. * * * And at this court there came petition against petition both from Hampton and Exeter: whereupon the court ordered two or three magistrates to be sent to Hampton with full power to hear and determine all differences there." *[Winthrop's N. E. ii. *177.]

...Upon this the pastor , etc., required the separate members to deliver
their grievances in writing, which they refusing to do, the pastor, etc.,
wrote to all the churches, that for this cause, they were purposed to
proceed against them as persons excomm unicated; and therefore desired
them to stay their journey, etc. This letter being read at a lecture at
Boston (where some of the elders of every church w ere present), they all
agreed (with consent of their churches) to go presentl y to Sagus, to stay
this hasty proceeding, etc. Accordingly, being met, and b oth parties
(after much debate being heard, it was agreed that they were a tr ue
church, though not constituted, at first, in due order, yet after consent
and practise of a church estate, had supplied that defect; and so all
were reconciled. *[Ibid., I. * 157.]
He was admitted a freeman May 6, 1635. It seem s quite probable that he
was the minister who dissented from the order of ban ishment of Roger
Williams in October, 1635 *[Winthrop's N.E., I.,* 170,171.] as his
opinions are known to have agreed closely with those of Williams, and no
minister of the twelve churches then established possessed his courage in
maintaining unpopular opinions. It is to be considered also that he had
pre viously been disciplined for departure from the established customs,
and with in three months was again in trouble from the same cause. In
January, 1635-6, says Winthrop, "Mr Batcheller of Sagus was convented
before the magistrates. The cause was, for that, coming out of England
with a small body of six or s even persons, and having since received in
many more at Sagus, and contention growing between him and the greatest
part of his church who had, with the re st, received him for their
pastor), he desired dismission for himself and his first members, which
being granted, upon supposition that he would leave the town (as he had
given out), he with the said six or seven persons presently renewed their
old covenant, intending to raise another church in Sagus; where at the
most and chief of the town being offended, for that it would cross the ir
intentions of calling Mr. Peter or some other minister, they complained
to the magistrates, who, foreseeing the distraction which was like to
come by this course, had forbidden him to proceed in any such church way
until the c ause were considered by the other ministers, etc. But he
refused to desist. W hereupon they sent for him, and upon his delay, day
after day, the marshall w as sent to fetch him. *[The arrest of a minister

One Hundred and Sixty Allied Families

Wherwell, South Stonham, Hampshire, Eng.
Boston, Lynn, Ipswich, Yarmouth, Newbury, Mass., Hampton, N. H., Portland, Me., Hampton, N. H., Hackney, Middlesex, Eng.
Governor Winthrop says that he suffered much at the hands of the Bishops; and in consequence of these persecutions he went to
Holland, and resided there several years.
1581, 11, 7. He entered St. John's College, Oxford, and took his degree of B.A., 1586, 2, 2.
1587, 7, 17. Vicar of the Church of Holy Cross and St. Peter at Wherwell, presented to him by William West, Lord de la War.
1605, 8, 9. The Vicarage was given to John Bates, the vacancy being caused by the "ejection of Stephen Bachiler." He was now
a nonconformist.
1631, 6, 23. He, aged seventy years, resident at South Stonham, Southampton, and his wife Helen, aged forty-seven, had license
given them to go to Flushing to visit their sons and daughters, and so to return within two months. Two days later, Ann Sanburn,
widow, aged thirty years, resident in the Strand, had licence to go to "Vlishing."
1632, 6, 5. Arrived in Boston in ship "William & Francis," 88 days from London. With him were part of his family, including
his daughter Theodate, and her husband Christopher Hussey; and three children of his daughter Ann, who had died, as had her
husband, John Sanborn. His grandson, Nathaniel Batchelder, he either brought with him, or sent for later.
1632, 10, 3. Ordered by the Court in Boston that "Mr. Bachiler is requested to forbear exercising his rights as pastor, etc., for
his contempt of authority, and until some scandals be removed."
1633, 3, 4. Court removed the above injunction.
1635, 5, 6. Lynn. Freeman. He came thence soon after landing, and with a few others established a church, of which he was
the first pastor.
1635. He requested dismission of himself and the first members of the church, which was granted. In a letter from this place
soon after his arrival, he complains to Gov. Winthrop, of a proposed sale of four hogsheads of pease; asking that the sale be
stayed. He says they came in ship "Whale," about the same time that he arrived in the "William & Francis." He alludes to
the "Company of Husbandmen" owing him a "debt of near œ100, which I lent the company in as good gold as can be weighed
with the scales." The pease would partly offset this, and as a further argument he says, "I have disposed of part of them and
the residue are exceedingly wanting in mine own congregation." The company he alludes to had procured a grant called the
"Plough Patent" (from name of the ship that brought it) of the Plymouth Company.
1636, Ipswich. Here 50 acres were granted him, but he soon left through "differences."
1637. Yarmouth. In the very cold winter of this year, he went on foot with friends, one hundred miles to Yarmouth. He was
at this time seventy-six years of age. (Yarmouth was not settled permanently till later.)
1638, 7, 6. Newbury. He was granted lands by the town.
1638, 9, 6. The General Court granted him a commission to settle at Hampton with his company.
1638, 10, 9. He wrote from Newbury to John Winthrop, jr. "So it is that we are resolved, God so consenting, the second working
day of the next week, to set forward towards our plantation (Hampton); preparing thereto the day before." He intends to
go by a shallop and he hopes Mr. Winthrop and Mr. Bradstreet will if possible be ready to accompany them. "This day had
not an hindrance fallen out, I had brought your father-in-law's two stalls of bees to you; for that one of them hath robbed and
spoiled a stall of mine, as the manner of bees is, and I cannot tell how to proceed against the offenders, to have law and justice
against them; but by removing the thievish stall and keeping in the innocent till they are removed. The Lords good eye be
ever upon you and yours, and so I rest on Him that is all sufficient, Yours in all Christian office and service, his most unworthy
Stephen Bachiler."
Page 38
1639. The inhabitants of Ipawich voted him another grant of 60 acres upland, if he would return to them and reside three years
there. He did not accept.
1639, 7, 5. He and his son-in-law, Christopher Hussey, sold their lands in Newbury, houses, etc., for "six score pounds," and
removed to Hampton.
1639, 9, 14. Upon the request of the pastor (Mr. Bachiler) made known to the Court, the plantation received the name of Hampton.
The name it previously held was Winnicunnet.
1639, 10, 18. He wrote Mrs. Winthrop alluding to his daily prayers for the Governor and his wife and children, and presents her
with a book, hoping "that my token may in something help you forward as a sweet gale of wind in your back in the way of
God. Looking among some special reserved books and lighting on this little treatise of one of my own poor children, I conceived
nothing might suit more to my love and your acceptance."
1640. The town of Hampton gave him 300 acres, and he gave them a bell for their church. About this time, being eighty years
of age and having a "comely and lusty wife," yet for alleged irregularity with a neighbor's wife (to which, it was declared, he
finally confessed though first denied), he was excommunicated from the church and pastorate of Hampton. Soon after, his
house was destroyed by fire.
1641. Casco, Maine.
1643. He was restored to communion but not to the office of minister. He wrote this year from Hampton to the church in Boston,
alluding to his wanderings from Lynn to Newbury, Hampton, Casco, etc., and complains of Rev. Timothy Dalton, "who
hath done all and been the cause of all the dishonor that hath accrued to God, shame to myself, and grief to all God's people,
by his irregular proceedings and abuse of the power of the church in his hand, by the major part cleaving to him being his
countrymen and acquaintances in Old England." He says he shall not depart from Hampton till he has cleared and vindicated
himself "or God for me" of these "causes and wrongs I have suffered of the church I live yet in." In this, as in other letters,
he intersperses Latin quotations. His stay at Casco (Portland) must have been brief, but while there he was chosen umpire in
cases of difference between George Cleeves, and John Winter; Cleeves having said that Winters wife was the drunkenest
woman in Plymouth, England, while Winter had appropriated Iands of Cleeves. The various suits were left to arbitration of
three men, with Stephen Bachiler as umpire. The decision was that John Winter should have house and land on paying
œ60 to Cleeves, and the latter should "Christianly acknowledge his failing thereby" against Mrs. Winter, first to arbitrators and
then to her.
1644, 5, 18. He wrote to Governor Winthrop of the great loss he had sustained by burning of his house at Hampton. He estimated
the loss at œ200 and "my whole study of books," closing "I cease and rest in the Lord, Yours to command his most unprofitable
servant Stephen Bachiler," and adds in P. S. "Bear with my blotted paper, my maid threw down myne ink glass upon
it and I had not rescribendi tempus."
1644. The people of Exeter desired him to come to them, but the Court laid an injunction on it.
1647, 5, 3. To Governor Winthrop he writes, "It is no news to certify you that God hath taken from me my dear helper and
yokefellow, and whereas by approbation of the whole plantation of Strawberry Bank [Portsmouth] they have assigned an
honest neighbor, to have some eye and care towards my family for washing, baking and other such common services; it is a
world of woes to think what rumors distracting spirits raise up; that I am married to her, or certainly shall be, and cast on her
such aspersions without ground or proof, as that I see not how possibly I shall subsist in the place to do them that service from
which otherwise they cannot endure to hear, I shall depart."
1647, 9, 8. He made a deed while resident at Portsmouth, "for and in consideration, natural love and affection towards my four
grandchildren; John, Stephen and William Sanborn, and Nathaniel Bachiler; all, now or lately, of Hampton," etc.
1650. Being now eighty-nine years old, he married his third wife, and in May was fined œ10 for not publishing his intentions of
marriage; half of the fine being remitted, however, in October following. The same year on account of their matrimonial disagreements,
the Court orders them to live together as man and wife, and either deserting the other to be arrested.
1651. His wife Mary was sentenced for adultery, and she and her paramour whipped.
1653 or 4. He went back to England, taking his grandson, Stephen Sanborn with him.
1656. His wife Mary prayed for divorce, because he had gone to England and taken a new wife, leaving her with children who
were sick, etc. Savage says, "he probably had good reason for leaving her." He died at Hackney, England. Lewis, in the
History of Lynn, says of him: "Mr. Bachiler had undoubtedly many virtues or he would not have had many friends, and they
would not have continued with him through all the changes of his varied life;" and he quotes Mr. Prince as saying that he was
"a man of fame in his day, a gentleman of learning and ingenuity, and wrote a fine and curious hand." (His signature and seal
appended to letters, may be seen in Mass. Hist. Coll., Vol. VII, 4th series.) Johnson in his "Wonder working Providence" thus
addresses him:
"Through ocean large, Christ brought thee for to feed
His wondering flock, with's word thou oft has taught;
Then teach thyself, with others thou hast need.
Thy flowing fame unto low ebb is brought."
