From "Some Ancestors and Descendants of Samuel Converse, Jr." page 38: Mary Brigham, who married John Fay, was the daughter of Thomas and Mercy (Hurd) Brigham of Cambridge, Mass. Thomas Brigham married, about 1637, Mercy Hurd, a lady ten or fifteen years his junior ...
From "Some Ancestors and Descendants of Samuel Converse, Jr." page 39: "Thomas Brigham married, about 1637, Mercy Hurd. She married, second, Edmund Rice, Senior, of Sudbury, march 1655/56, who removed to Marlboro; and, in May 1663, she married, third, Wm. Hunt of Concord, whom she survived, and died in Marlboro 22 or 28 December 1693. "on her second marriage she took with her to Sudbury and to Marlborough all her children, from whom descended a numerous posterity residing in and near Marlborough, some of who attained high distinction." The above is from Paige's History of Cambridge, Mass., Savage's Genealogical Dictionary, Hudson's Marlborro, Bond's Watertown, and Rev. Abner Morse's " Genealogical Register of Several Ancient Puritan Families." In the latter book will be found a fuller account of Thomas Brigham, including a more extended description of his possessions.
Of Mrs. Mercy (Hurd) Brigham, Rev. Aabner Morse says: "Thomas Brigham married about 1637, Mercy Hurd, a lady ten or fifteen years his junior, for whom tradition has brought down a high character, alleging that she and her sister, who married Wm. (?) Cutler, were so tantalized in England for non-comfomity that they resolved to seek their liberty and fortunes in New England, and arrived unattended by husbands or lovers." Mr. Morse says teh tradition is direct and probably reliable. "Success rewarded the enterprise. They were in as quick demand as unmarried teachers at the West, and if the number of worthy husbands whom a lady marries is the measure of her worth, then madam Brigham was a most worthy and attractive worman, for she married no less than three . . . During her third widowhood she saw two bloody Indian wars. During the first Marlborough was burnt, and she with one of her sons is believed to have retreated to their former home on the rocks in Cambridge, while her two sons went in pursuit of the enemy." | Hurd, Mercy (I6151)

From "Some Ancestors and Descendants of Samuel Converse, Jr." page 5: "... Deacon Edward again married, 9 September 1662, Joanna Sprague, the widow of Ralph Sprague of Charlestown, Mass., the last two dates being from Woburn Records.
Richard Frothingham, in his History of Charlestown, Mass., says: --"She (Joanna) may have been Edward Convers' third wife." She bore no children to him, and she died 24 February 1679-80." | Joanna (I5883)

From "Some Ancestors and Descendants of Samuel Converse, Jr." page 9-10: He [Samuel Convers] married, 8 June 1660, Judith Carter, daughter of Rev. Thomas and Mary (Parkhurst) Carter. ... It was probably in Watertown [MA] that he married Mary Parkhurst, who died 28 March 1687. She was the daughter of George Parkhurst, Senior, of [page 10] Watertown, but was long supposed to have been born a Dalton. The late William H. Whitmore, however, in new England Historical Genealogical Register, Vol. 37, p. 364, printed a deed of Ruth wife of Rev. Timothy Dalton, of Hampton, dated 22 March 1663-4, and also her will dated 8 December 1665. Mr. John L. Blake of Orange, J. J., in a most carefully prepared monograph entitle the English Home of Timothy Dalton, makes clear the exact relationship in which the Daltons and Carters stood. Mr. Whitmore assumed that Ruth Dalton was the sister (or possibly the sister-in-law) of George Parkhurst, Sr., of Watertown, Mass. In that case, Deborah Smith, Elizabeth Merry, Phebe Arnold, Joseph Parkhurst, George Parkhurst, and Mary Carter, who are known to have been his children, were respectively the nephews and nieces of Mrs. Dalton. These were all beneficiaries under the deed aforesaid. In Sewall's History of Woburn, page 161, the wife of Rev. Thomas Carter is described as "Mrs. Mary (Dalton) Carter." Her son-in-law, John Wyman, Jr., "reseved" a part of the "legeisie weh whas given to my mother-in-law Merri Carter by Mrs. Ruth Dalton of Hampton deiseised." | Parkhurst, Mary (I5211)

From "Some Ancestors and Descendants of Samuel Converse, Jr." page 9: "He [Samuel Convers] married, 8 June 1660, Judith Carter, daughter of Rev. Thomas and Mary (Parkhurst) Carter. Rev. Thomas Carter was the first minister in Woburn, and continued in that position forty-two years. He died, in Woburn, 5 September 1684, in the seventy-fourth year of his age. He matriculated at St. Johns College, Univ. Cambridge, England, 1 April 1626, at which University he took degree of A.B., january 1629-30, and M.A., 1633. Sewall's History of Woburn says that he came to this country, while yet a student of divinity, in 1635, and may reasonably be supposed to be the Thomas Carter who embarked with forty others, at London, 2 April 1635, on board the "Planter," Capt. Nicholas Trariee, bound to New England. the passengers brought with them certificates from the minister at St. Albans in Hertfordshire, which has led to the supposition that Rev. Thomas Carter came from that place. He was first in Dedham where he took the freeman's oath 9 march 1636-7. Thence he removed to Watertown, where he was an Elder in the Church, and proprietor of a homestead of ten acres, and a farm of ninety two acres. It was probably in Watertown [MA] that he married Mary Parkhurst, who died 28 March 1687."
From "Some Ancestors and Descendants of Samuel Converse, Jr." page 10: "When Rev. Thomas Carter was first invited to preach at Woburn 3 November 1641, it is mentioned as a reason for his not being applied to earlier that it had been doubted whether Watertown would be willing to part with him." he was ppointed minister of the Church in Woburn in 1642, and was ordained 22 November 1642. Thise is an account of his ordination in "The History of New England from 1630 to 1649 by John Winthrop, Esq., First Governor of Mass.," and also in Capt. Edward Johnson's "Wonder-Working Providence," wihich describes him as a "reverend, godly man, apt to teach the sound and wholesome truths of Christ," and one who had "much encreased with the encreasings of Christ Jesus."
Possible had a son or brother named John Carter. This name shows up on wills and court documents | Carter, Thomas (I5850)

From "Some of the Ancestors and Descendants of Samuel Converse, Jr." page 113: "Laura S. Goodrich, born in Rodman, N.Y., 20 Jan. 1832; married, 12 March 1850, William C. Dawes, who was born in Peasmarch, Sussex Co., Eng., 14 Nov. 1817, and came to this country with his parents in 1829. Mr. and Mrs. Dawes lived in Cape Vincent, N. Y., until spring of 1864, when they moved to Waterloo, Wis. In 1890 they were living in Pittsville, Wis. They had fourteen children:"
From a hand written letter in the possession of Marian DIBBLE Williams (1992): "Wm C. Dawes sailed from Rye Old England March 28th 1830 for the United States arrived in New York on the eleventh day of April 1830 at the age of 13 years." On side of this paper he has written: "I cannot see God, But God can see me."
From "History of Wood County" page 668 and 669: "William was a native of England and came to the United States when 12 years old, his family settling at Cape Vincent, New York where William C. was raised. The mother was of Holland Dutch descent. Mr. and Mrs. William C. Dawes came to Wisconsin in 1863 and settled at Waterloo, where the father followed the trade of miller until 1876. In which year they came to Wood County, driving overland with a team of oxen. Here they purchased 80 acres of heavily timbered land in Section 24, of Wood Township. The country was a most primitive one at that time. The Dawes family on first coming lived in an old logging shanty while the father and sons made a clearing and hewed logs for a more commodious, if not less primitive residence. This structure, when completed, was roofed with home-made shingles after it was converted into a frame house. The family of pioneers set to work to clear the land, the age-old battle of the pioneer; there were hardships on every hand, and the task before them was a formidable one. Gradually, however, they accomplished it and from their efforts there emerged a fine agricultural property. This place was the home of the father and mother for the remainder of their lives."

-------------------------
Hi Karen , I may have already sent you this, so if I did just ignore it. You
asked if I knew when and where Christian Cones died. It was 9-11-1777 in
Georges twp. Chester county, Maryland. I apparently had said that Jacob and
his wife Jane McCullough was born in Lancaster Va. It was a typo error as my
records show Lancaster, Pa. How many children do you have for Jacob and Jane ?

From Father's Will:
Item iv: I do give unto my son Henry Carter 100 acres of land to him and his heirs forever only reserving my wife to have the benefit of getting what timber she shall have occasion of for repairing and rebuilding on my now dwelling plantation but whereas the said Henry is in England and if it should happen he should never come in again I do give the said land unto my son James Carter to him and his heirs forever.
"Henry Carter Ann Davis was married ye 6th day of May 1701"
The Prayer Book has his marriage to Anne Davis on 06 May 1701.
Library of Virginia has his will probated 10 Feb 1743 -
GENEALOGIES OF VIRGINIA FAMILIES From the William and Mary College Quarterly Historical Magazine, Vol. I. Baltimore, MD: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1982. Page 602-603.
"Henry Carter (Thomas (1)), born 1674, died 1743. In a deposition made April 8, 1743, Henry Carter stated that he was about 69 years of age. Sometime prior to 1704 he married Anne Harris, as shown by a lease for 200 acres of land , dated Nov. 9, 1704, from Henry Carter and wife Ann "who was daughter of Gainey Harris late of this county Gent, who by his will dated 14 th April, 1693, left the above mentioned premises to his daughter Ann". From 1728 to 1740 "Mr. Henry Carter" was continuously a Justice of the County Court. April 5, 1737, Henry Carter and brother Joseph were two of eleven signers to a memorial complaining of the misrepresentation of Wm. Ball, Jr., Gent. who had been a Justice of Lancaster for nine years and then omitted from the Commission because of misrepresentation.
"Henry Carter was a vestryman of Christ Church and before his death in 1743 he was one of six vestrymen to meet with a like number from St. Mary's White Chapel to form a general vestry for the two parishes. His brother Joseph Carter was a vestryman from St. Mary's at the same time....March 21, 1732, "Henry Carter of the County of Lancaster Gent." made his will which was probated Oct. 10, 1743. He left home plantation and negro, Courtney, to son Gainy; negroes Tom and Jack to three daughters and son Robert all of whom were to have the right to remain at home till the daughters married and Robert arrived at the age of sixteen. Daughters also to have two beds and furniture and their mother's jewelry - Catherine the biggest gold ring, Ann the lesser ring, and Elizabeth the gold bobbs; Son John to have a chest in the "outward room", a new hat, his silver cup, and a ten shilling piece of gold he had from his mother Katharine Dale to make him a mourning ring; Son Harry his little trunk, new dugget coat and breeches and dimity and linen clothes; son Josiah, horse named Jack, a steere, new saddle and bridle; son Robert, the smallest bed and furniture upstairs. All to share equally in the rest of the estate. Brother Thomas Carter to have his silver seal. Desires that his "Cousin Thomas Carter" assist son Gainy in managing the negroes. This would seem to indicate that Capt. Thomas Carter Sr. had a brother who had descendants in that part of Virginia. There was a family of Carters in Middlesex county, contemporaneous with Capt. Thomas Carter and his sons, who had similar given names to those in Lancaster. Henry Carter's personal estate contained besides the usual furniture, and jewelry mentioned in the will, a large amount of clothing, 15 books, a pair of silver shoe buckles, a viol, twelve leather chairs, 2 pewter flower pots, etc." | Carter, Henry Skipworth (I67893)
