Beschreibung

A genealogical dictionary of our early colonists. Every volume shows three generations of those who came before 1692. Although more than a century has elapsed since the publication of this monumental work, it remains the standard to our day. We do not mean that new information has not been unearthed or that the work is free from errors, but Savage had just the peculiar qualifications necessary. He was so persistent in gathering data and so conservative in his use of them, that a statement made on his authority bears great weight. This work has the whole of New England for its field. This is volume 1, covering the surnames D - J.

WILLIAM Charlestown 1630, a butcher, came in the fleet with Winthrop prob. for his name stands on the list of Boston ch. next after John Winthrop jr. wh. came, however, in 1631; and he was of the 35 earliest mem. of the ch. of Charlestown, freem. 1 Apr. 1633; by w.

Perhaps he had been driv. away from some frontier settlem. in the Ind. war, and went back. Yet in the great fire of Mar. 1760, one of the sufferers, as we see in Drake's valua. Hist. of Boston, p. 652, was Isaac D. perhaps gr.s. of John.

DAGAN, RICHARD, Scituate 1690, had Elizabeth b. 1693; and Thomas, 1694. Deane tells little more.

DALISSON, or DALISON, GILBERT, Milford a. 1647, as Lambert presumes, but at Boston, we learn by rec. m. 24 Oct. 1661, wid. Margaret Story; perhaps later in life he had w. Mary, and good est. but no ch. d. 1689; gave his prop. after dec. of w. to John Barton of Salem, and he to pay £10 to Thomas Marshall, yet no relat. is kn. with either of them.

The time of his d. by a fall in his barn, is giv. 2 Apr. 1690, but the partit. of est. was not bef. 15 Apr. 1695, when div. to wid. and four s. beside Oldham, Woodward, and Hyde is found. Thirteen of this fam. had been gr. in 1839 at Harv. and thirteen at other N. E. coll.

DAND, JOHN, Boston 1641, clk. in the prothonotary's office (but I hear not where), gave much trouble by join. others in petit. for enlargem. of privilege 1645. Winslow describes him as liv. in ano. man's house at board hire. He was not a freeholder. See our Gen. Court's Declarat. in Hutch. con. 211, one of the most curious papers in that invalua. collect. We might presume, on his ill-success in Mass., that he went home, but Farmer says he was of Dover 1654. Winthrop II. 262, 92-5. The learned auth. of "Gens Sylvestrina," one of the most agreeable books of genealogy ever print. says, the Dands were "the most considerable fam. in the sixteenth cent. at Mansfield in Nottinghamsh." Yet they were mercers, as he tells.

DANDY, WILLIAM, Charlestown, prob. call. Davy in Frothingham, 181, was in 1680 one of the tythingmen of the town. See Dady.

DANE, DANIEL, Andover, s. prob. of Rev. Francis, by w. Deliverance had Nathaniel, b. 26 Mar. 1684. But he had liv. at Concord, was one of the tythingmen there 1680. FRANCIS, Andover, s. of John of Roxbury, b. in Eng. was of Ipswich 1648, and soon after ord. sec. min. of A. was brot. by his f. 1636, it is said, in the same ship with Nathaniel Rogers, wh. was half a yr. on her passage from London to Boston; by w. Elizabeth d of Edmund Ingalls, m. bef. he went to A. wh. d. 9 June 1676, were all his ch. prob. b. but we have not their names or dates, with exactness; yet two, Nathaniel, and Elizabeth were b. perhaps bef. his ordin. Besides these, he had, also, Albert, and two nam. Francis, wh. all d. young; Hannah, wh. m. 14 Nov. 1666, William Goodhue; Phebe m. 30 May 1671, Joseph Robinson; Abigail m. 12 Oct. 1675, Francis Faulkner; and Francis, again. He m. sec. w. 22 Nov. 1677, Mary Thomas, wh. d. 18 Feb. 1689; and, third, Hannah, wid. of George Abbot, wh. surv. to June 1711. He d. 17 Feb. 1697, aet. 82. He was in danger from the cruel infatua. of 1692, when others of high rank fled from the suspicion of witchcraft, and of his humbler neighb. sheep of his fold, innocent of the nonsense as hims. not a few suffer. Hutch. Il. 38. FRANCIS, Andover, s. of the preced. m. 16 Nov. 1681, Hannah Poor, freem. 1691, d. 1738, aet. 81, leav. Francis, John, Joseph, and Daniel. JOHN, Roxbury, from Co. Essex, Eng. came 1636, bring. ch. of a dec. w. Francis, Elizabeth and John; was perhaps the freem. of 2 June 1641, m. 2 July 1643, Ann, or Hannah, or Annis, wid. of William Chandler, and d. says town rec. bur. says the ch. rec. 14 Sept. 1658. His will, of a week preced. pro. 16 Oct. names only those ch. of wh. he calls Elizabeth Howe, perhaps w. of the sec. Abraham of Roxbury. Perhaps he had rem. a short time to Ipswich, and came back to R. His wid. had third h. John Parmenter of Sudbury, and d. 15 Mar. 1683. JOHN, Ipswich, s. of the preced. b. in Eng. at Colchester 1613, perhaps came to Roxbury 1636, with his f. freem. 2 June 1641, unless that name in the rec. of the Col. apply to his f. and he be freem. of 1682, was a surgeon, d. 29th Sept. 1684, leav. good est. for that day; had Mary b. 1639, wh. m. 24 Aug. 1658, William Chandler of Andover, wh. was s. of her gr.f.'s sec. w. His will names w. two s. John, and Philemon, ds. Elizabeth and Sarah, gr.ch. Mary Chandler, and Daniel Hovey. In the close investigat. of recent days it is found, that Elizabeth m. Reginald Foster; Sarah m. 23 Sept. 1668, Daniel Warner; and a d. Rebecca m. James Hovey, wh. perhaps was the man k. by the Ind. at Brookfield, 2 Aug. 1675. The deficiency of Ipswich rec. leaves all else unkn. but he was ancest. of Hon. Nathan, H. C. 1778, LL. D. of Beverly, disting. in jurisprud. and of Hon. Joseph, H. C. 1799, of Maine. NATHANIEL, Andover, s. of Rev. Francis, m. 12 Dec. 1672, Deliverance, d. of Robert Hazeltine, had Nathaniel, d. 16 Oct. 1674; and Francis, d. 3 Nov. 1679; prob. others; and d. 1725, aet. 80. His wife was imprison. on charge of witchcr, 1692; and when innocence would not avail, sav. her life by false confession of guilt. On either plea, guilty or not, the father of lies was sure to triumph. PHILEMON, Ipswich, s. of sec. John, freem. 1674, was a physician, m. 7 Oct. 1685, Mary Thompson; and 25 Dec. 1690, took sec. w. Ruth, d. of James Converse of Woburn, and d. 18 Oct. 1716. Of his ch. Mary; Philemon, b. 1693, d. next yr.; Philemon, again, and Edward, tw. 17 July 1695; and Ruth, 24 Aug. 1698; no doubt of the mo. can be felt, unless the first may have been by former w. THOMAS, Concord, had, I suppose, by w. Elizabeth a d. b. 24 Feb. 1643, and certain. by her had Hannah, 18 Mar. 1645, if this be the real name of him print. Dann in Geneal. Reg. VIII. 347, with wh. conf. G. R. IV. 271. WILLIAM, Woburn, had Martha, b. 17 Aug. 1671; William, 5 July 1673; Samuel, 26 July 1675; John, 25 June 1677; Sarah, in 1687, by w. Martha Great difficulty occurs in turning over rec. by frequent substitution of Dean, or Deane, or Daine, for Dane, and the reverse.

DANFORTH, JOHN, Dorchester, s. of the first Rev. Samuel, ord. 28 June 1682, seventh min. of that ch. m. 21 Nov. 1682, Elizabeth (but in Geneal. Reg. VII. 58, call. Hetty), d. of James Minot, wh. d. 6 June 1722; and he d. 26 May 1730. His age has been overstated by 8 yrs. in Dr. Harris and others. He had Elijah, b. 1683, H. C. 1703, d. 8 Oct. 1736 ; John, 26 Jan. 1689, d. 2 Mar. 1729; and (beside Mehitable, whose gr.stone tells, that she d. 1 May 1727, in 27th yr.), Samuel, H. C. 1715, judge of Pro. counsel. and mandamus couns. whose w. Elizabeth Symmes d. 13 Jan. 1775, aet. 67, and he d. 27 Oct. 1777, aet. 81. This Samuel was f. of Samuel, the disting. physician, H. C. 1758, wh. d. 16 Nov. 1827, aged 86; and of Thomas, H. C. 1762, wh. at the revo. adher. to the crown, and d. at London Apr. 1820. See the fine note by William T. Harris in Geneal. Reg. VII. 315. *JONATHAN, Billerica, youngest s. of Nicholas, b. prob. at Framlingham, Co. Suffk. came 1634 with his f. m. 22 Nov. 1655, Elizabeth d. of John Poulter, of Billerica, dec. had eleven ch.; Mary, b. 29 Jan. 1657 ; Elizabeth 27 May 1658 ; Jonathan ; John, wh. d. 7 Feb. 1661; a d. whose name is not certain, 23 Jan. 1661; Thomas, 29 Apr. 1670, d. at 3 mos.; Nicholas, 1 July 1671; and ano. John, 22 Feb. 1662, however, being the only ones kn. by me; exc. Ann, wh. m. 22 Jam 1690, Oliver Whiting; but of six s. only two, Jonathan, b. 1659, freem. 1690, and Samuel, 1666, left issue.

Perhaps the f. d. that yr. But in the Diary of Noadiah Russell, Geneal. Reg. VII. 57, it is told, that he d. 13 Nov. 1682. Yet this may easily be reconcil. by supposing Russell to mean the s. of Thomas, not of Jonathan; tho Bond mistook him for the latter. *NICHOLAS, Cambridge, from Framlingham, Co.

Rachel, d. of Thomas Holmes, had Richard; rem. to Hartford, there had William; and in 1667 his w. was convict. of playing cards. They rem. to New York, where greater laxity might be indulg. in. JOHN, New Haven, first min. there, s. of John, says Wood's Athenae Oxon. not, as the fondness of Mather states, mayor of Coventry, in idle attempt to magnify a great man, was b. 1597, bred at Oxford, but not adm. as Mather has it, of Brazen Nose, 1611, enter. 1613, at Merton Coll. thence after two yrs. rem. to Magdalen Hall, where he proceed. B. D. 1625 was preach. at St. Stephens, Coleman str. London, perhaps not quite so early as the Magnalia imports; but being in 1633 complain. of for nonconform. went to Amsterdam, thence came to N. E. 1637, with Gov. Eaton, arr. at Boston 26 June, and next yr. with him sett. New Haven. Mr. Haven, the accomplish. editor of Archaeologia Americana, Vol. III. in prelimin. rem. cxxxvi. corrects that looselessn. of the Magnalia as to the mayor of Coventry; yet falls into slight error as to the coming of this famous divine. On p. lxxxv. he says: "When the times grew favorable for the Puritans he return. to Eng." from his refuge in Holland; but more exact expression should be, in my judgm. thus: "As the times grew not favorable for the Puritans, he ret. no more to Eng." exc. to emb. privily, perhaps without landing, for he dared not appear in London. After near 30 yrs. of great influence in the Col. of his own plant. rem. to Boston. freem. 1669, hav. with very injurious controversy been instal. as success. of Wilson, 9 Dec. 1668, at the first ch. causing foundation of third ch. in Boston, gather. 12 May 1669 at Charlestown, and violent heats in the commonwealth for many yrs.

He was at New Haven eager in defence of Goffe and Whalley, the regicides in 1661, and perhaps much aid. in their escape. Yet a most curious, if not characteristic, letter from him furnishes no small light to the hist. of his acting giv. by Dr. Stiles, as it tends to exculpate, or inculpate, him, according to the eyes with wh. it is read, in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 327. With his name is frequent. assoc. that of a cous. possib. a br. Christopher, b. 1598, a Catholic priest of great learning not a Jesuit, under the name of Santa Clara, wh. d. 31 May 1680. Mather, III. 52, denies that he was a br." as a certain Woodden Historian, in his Athenae Oxon. has report." By this merciless punishm. of honest Anthony, the immortal author of the Magnalia fully proves how much better qualif. he was for executioner than judge. We kn. no ch. but John, call. only s. tho. he certain. had youngest B. Joseph, wh. d. prob. bef. his f. and perhaps had ds. bef. or after com. to N. E. and he d. 15 Mar. 1670. Elizabeth perhaps his wid. d. at B. 15 Sept. 1676, aged 73, if the gr.stone be correct. In the present age a descend. of the venerab. father of New Haven, A. Benedict Davenport, Esqr. call. hims. of the twenty-fourth generat. has confident. carr. the line of his fam. back to Orme de Davenport, 1086, or the 20th of the Conquer.
