Hereditary Societies and Military Service in each booklet 8. Research and Bibliography in each booklet Note on dates: In the 17th century, England used the Julian calendar. In 1752, England switched to the Gregorian calendar (the one we use today). The Julian calendar changed the year on March 25, not on January 1. Therefore some dates are written like February 26, 1610/11 to indicate it was still 1610 on the Julian calendar, but the year was actually 1611 by our modern Gregorian calendar. 3 Compiled by Stanley Frazer Rose, 2016 New Jersey Ancestors Byram, Condit, Lindsley Sadie Warner Frazer’s Maternal Northern Ancestors COLONY Native American Initial Name Year Settled or Name Incorporated Virginia 1607 Plymouth Colony 1620 Braintree Mt.

The first will be a great and total eclipse, on Friday March 15th, at 9h. 28m. morning, but by reason of the moon's south latitude, her shadow will not touch any part of North America. The course of the general eclipse will be from southwest to north- east, from the Pacific Ocean a little west of Chili to the Arabian Gulf and southeastern part of the Mediterranean Sea. The termination of this grand and sublime phenomenon will probably be witnessed from the summit of some of those stupendous monuments of ancient industry and folly, the vast and lofty pyramids on the banks of the Nile in lower Egypt. The principal cities and places that will be to- tally shadowed in this eclipse, are Valparaiso, Mendoza, Cordova, Assumption, St. Salvador and Pernambuco, in South America, and Sierra Leone, Teemboo, Tombucto and Fezzan, in Africa. At each of these places the duration of total darkness will be from one to six minutes, and several of the planets and fixed stars will probably be visible. 2. The other will also be a grand and beautiful eclipse, on Satur- day, September 7th, at 5h. 35m. evening, but on account of the Mnon's low latitude, and happening so late in the afternoon, no part of it will be visible in North America.

Traces Some past events offer the historians who study them an embarrassment of riches. The archives of a successful company or an influential US president can easily fill a building, and distilling them into an authoritative book can consume decades. Other events leave behind only the barest traces—scraps and fragments of records, fleeting references by contemporary observers, and shadows thrown on other events of the time—and can be reconstructed only with the aid of inference, imagination, and ingenuity.

  • Thomas Mayhew
    “GOVERNOR FOR LIFE” THOMAS MAYHEW OF NANTUCKET AND MARTHA’S VINEYARD 1593 Thomas Mayhew was born. He would grow up in a town called Tisbury in Wiltshire, a tiny place between London and Bristol to the west. His father would die when he was 21 and he would become a merchant in the town in which he likely had been apprenticed, Southampton, due south, one of the great seaport towns of England. One of the London merchants who was very active in the colonization of New England was Matthew Cradock, and somehow Mayhew would become acquainted with Cradock and, after having been in business for himself for about 10 years, accept an offer in 1631 to become Cradock’s agent in the colonies. NANTUCKET ISLAND MARTHA’S VINEYARD HDT WHAT? INDEX GOVERNOR THOMAS MAYHEW THOMAS MAYHEW 1630 In England, William Coddington was chosen as an Assistant of the company (Assistant Judge of Court of Colony of Massachusetts Bay) before his embarkation with John Winthrop. He had lived at Boston in County Lincoln, where the record of St. Botolph’s church shows that he and his wife Mary Moseley Coddington, daughter of Richard Moseley of Ouseden, in County Suffolk had Michael Coddington, baptized on March 8, 1627, who died in two weeks, and Samuel Coddington, born on April 17, 1628, buried on August 21, 1629. The Winthrop fleet that brought “the Great Emigration” of this year comprised 11 vessels: • Arbella (the flagship) •Ambrose • William and Francis • Talbot • Hopewell • Jewel • Whale •Charles • Success • Mayflower •Trial Altogether the fleet brought about 700 colonists — here is an attempt at reconstructing a passenger list.

WIGHTMAN UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF COLONEL CHARLES EDWARD BANKS Author of the History of Martha's Vineyard, &c BALTIMORE 1921 £6 WILLIAM ALEXANDER, EARL OF STERLING FROM WHOM THOMAS MAVHIAV MADE HIS FIRST PURCHASE. BORN 1567. DIED 1641. THE MAYHEW MANOR OF TISBURY* It is a fact unknown in history, except perhaps to a few local antiquarians, that the island of Martha's Vineyard, located just south of Cape Cod and now a part of the Common- wealth of Massachusetts, was at one time under the jurisdiction of the Province of New York, and constituted one of its first three county governments. Martha's Vineyard, together with the Elizabeth Islands, Nantucket, and No Man's Land, wras incorporated November 1, 1683, by the Provincial Assembly of New York, as Duke's County, coincident with the creation of King's County (now Brooklyn), and Queen's County (Long Island), but for twenty years before that date it had been an integral part of the Province of New York. In order to understand the political relationship of these far-flung isles of the southeastern New England coast to the New York government, it is necessary to hark back to the early settlement of this country when King James established the Council for New England, which gave this territory to certain of the nobility, and other prominent Englishmen interested in the colonization of the New World.

  • The Christian Foundation of America's Original Thirteen Colonies
    The Christian Foundation of America’s Original Thirteen Colonies BY GLENN SWYGART At a time when the Christian foundation of American character is under Satanic attack, Americans must be reminded that those who established the original colonies were Christians whose primary motivation was freedom to practice and propagate Biblical Christianity. History teachers in elementary and secondary schools should communicate this foundational truth to their students, who can then transmit it to future generations. Post-Reformation Background It was in the sovereign plan of God that the beginnings of what became the United States coincided with the aftermath of the Protestant Reformation of the sixteenth century. In the spirit of Biblical truth, three major groups developed in the seventeenth century whose goals were to make that truth free in both belief and practice; thus all became champions of religious freedom. The first of these groups were the English Baptists, who were the result of two separate Reformation movements. First, the Swiss Anabaptists, whose basis was Believer’s Baptism and opposition to state churches. Second, the English Separatist Puritans, whose foundation was religious freedom. The origin of the English Baptists came in 1609, when John Smyth, a Separatist Puritan pastor who had taken his Gainsborough Congregation to Holland, came under the influence of the Anabaptists. Smyth and his church adopted Believer’s Baptism and strengthened their opposition to a state church. After Smyth died about 1612, part of his congregation returned to England and became the General Baptists. The English Particular Baptists began in 1638 with a stronger Calvinistic influence. Both groups impacted the early colonies for religious liberty.

The family precedes the state. Love of kindred under- lies true patriotism. Hon. John Alden was one of the principal persons, and the last male survivor of the band of Pilgrims, who came to Plymouth in the May Flower in 1620. With few exceptions, and these mostly of recent date, all persons in this country bearing the name of Alden are his descendents. Of each of these who is at the head of a family, it is the plan of this work to give, as far as the facts are at hand, the name, residence, occupation of males over twenty-one years of age, date of birth, and, if deceased, of death, parentage and social position. Descendents of the common ancestor bearing other names are noticed in connection with the families from which they originated. Families are usually numbered consecutively.
