Generation: 4

  1. 12.  Nicholas BAKER was born in 1611 in Hingham, Norfolk, England; died on 22 Aug 1678 in Scituate, Plymouth, Massachusetts.

    Notes:

    Nicholas Baker and his brother Nathaniel came from England to America inthe spring or early summer of 1635. He was educated in England, receivedhis Bachelors degree in 1631/2 and a Masters in 1635.

    He drew a house lot in Hingham, Mass on 18 Sept. 1635. He became aFreeman on 3 March 1635/6, sixth in a sequence of eight Hingham men.Nicholas or his wife, or perhaps both, belonged to the Hingham church asearly as 1638, and several of their children were baptized there. Theyremoved to Hull, and he applied to the General Court on Aug 2, 1642 toplant at Seekonk, but apparently did not go. In 1660 they went insteadfrom Hull to Scituate, perhaps because he was ordained the third ministerof the First Church there.

    He successfully brought together the first and the second churches whichhad quarrelled for twenty years. Cotton Mather tells us that "I amcontent that there should be received (for the saints of this catalogueof early New England ministers already departed have received him) honestMr. Nicholas Baker of Scituate; who, though he had but a privateeducation, yet, being a pious and zealous man; or as Dr. Arrowsmithexpresses it, so good a logician that he could offer up to God areasonable service; so good an orator, that he persuaded himself to be agood Christian; and being also one of good natural parts, especially of astrong memory, was chosen pastor of the church there; and in the pastoralcharge of that church he continued about eighteen years, until thathorror of mankind, and reproach of medecine, the stone (under which hepreached patience by a very memorable example of it; never letting fallany word worse than this, which was an usual word with him, 'A mercy ofGod it is no worser!' put an end unto his days."

    The Last Will and Testament Nicholas was probated at Plymouth the 30th ofOctober 1678, on the oaths of Major James Cudworth and Thomas Clapp. Thewill mentions second wife Grace, sons Samuel and Nicholas, daughters,Mary, Elizabeth, Sarah and Deborah, wife's grandchild, Mary Web, andgrandchild, Mercy Baker. It appoints wife Grace Executrix, and eldest sonSamuel as joint executor with her. It appoints brother, Nathaniel Baker,and "my loving kinsman", John Loring, to be overseers.

    Nicholas married Elizabeth RICHARDS about 1633. Elizabeth was born about 1616 in England; died on 23 Apr 1661 in Scituate, Plymouith, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 13.  Elizabeth RICHARDS was born about 1616 in England; died on 23 Apr 1661 in Scituate, Plymouith, Massachusetts.
    Children:
    1. 6. Samuel BAKER, Rev. was born on 2 Oct 1638 in Scituate, Plymouith, Massachusetts; died in 1714 in Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut.

  3. 14.  Isaac ROBINSON was born in 1610 in Leyden, Holland (son of John Christopher ROBINSON, Rev. and Bridget WHITE); died in 1704 in Barnstable, Barnstable, Massachusetts.

    Notes:

    Isaac Robinson, son of the famed Reverend John Robinson, came to America aboard the second sailing of the Mayflower, which arrived at Boston in May 15, 1629. He traveled with his mother, Mrs. Bridget Robinson and his sisters, Fear and Mercy. His origin is not stated, nor his destination. His mother is listed as "widow of Rev. John of Leyden", and they were with the family of Thomas Blossom, "of Cambridge, England, and Leyden, Holland", bound for Plymouth.

    On the 20th of February 1634 he sold his Estate to John Twisden, and removed to Barnstable accompanied by the Rev. John Lathrop. About 1663 he removed to Falmouth, Massachusetts and in 1701 to Tisbury on Martha's Vineyard. In November 1701 he returned to Barnstable, where he had retained his church membership, and resided with his daughter Fear, the wife of Mr. Samuel Baker, until his death in 1704, age. 94.

    He was in the 1633 list of Plymouth freemen between those admitted 1 January 1633/4 and those admitted 1 January 1634/5. He was also in the 7 March 1636/7 list of Plymouth Colony freeman and in the Scituate section of the 1639 Plymouth Colony list of freemen; his name was then erased and reentered in the Barnstable section of the same list. He was in the Barnstable section of the 1658 Plymouth Colony list of freeman.

    He held many public offices such as Deputy for Barnstable to Plymouth General Court, Tax Collector and Coroner's jury. He does not appear in the 1643 Plymouth Colony list of men able to bear arms.

    On 24 May 1649 Isaac Robinson testified that he heard Mr. Gillson saythat he wanted to leave his land to two of his sister's children (John and Hannah Damman) which he looked upon as his own, and that he heard Gillson's wife acknowledge it and say she wouldn't wrong them.

    On 1 March 1658/9 Isaac Robinson and Gyles Rickard Sr. complained on behalf of two children of Henery Coggen, deceased. Perhaps as a result of this, John Coggen, one of these children, chose Mr. Isaac Robinson as one of his guardians. On 8 April 1664 he was discharged as guardian.

    On 7 March 1659/60 the court "taking notice of sundry scandals and falsehoods in a letter of Isacke Robinson's, tending greatly to the prejudice of this government and encouragement of those commonly called Quakers, and thereby liable ... to disenfranchisement, yet we at present forebear the censure until further inquiry be made into things."

    On 6 June 1660 Isaac Robinson "for being a manifest opposer of the laws of this government expressed by him in a letter directed the Governor and otherwise" is disenfranchised of the freedom of the corporation. An interlineations following says, there being some mistake in this, IsaacRobinson is re-established and by general vote of the court, accepted again; this interlineations may have been made as late as 1673, for Isaac Robinson is not in the 29 May 1670 list of Plymouth freemen, and on 4 July 1673 Plymouth Court "voted Mr. Isacke Robinson to be reestablished in the privilege of a freeman of this corporation."

    On 4 April 1702 Samuel Sewall wrote "visit Mr. [Isaac] Robinson who saith he is 92 years old, is the son of Mr. [John] Robinson pastor of the church of Leyden, part of which came to Plimo. But to my disappointment he came not to New England till the year (1631) in which Mr. [John]Wilson was returning to England after the settlement of Boston. I told him was very desirous to see him for his father's sake, and his own. Gave him an Arabian piece of gold to buy a book for some of his grandchildren."

    The death date of 1704 is stated in all secondary sources with no evidence supplied.

    Isaac married Margaret HANFORD on 27 Jun 1636 in Scituate, Plymouth, Massachusetts. Margaret (daughter of Jeffry HANFORD and Elgin HATHERLY) was born in 1619 in Leyden, Holland; died on 13 Jun 1649 in Barnstable, Barnstable, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  4. 15.  Margaret HANFORD was born in 1619 in Leyden, Holland (daughter of Jeffry HANFORD and Elgin HATHERLY); died on 13 Jun 1649 in Barnstable, Barnstable, Massachusetts.

    Notes:

    Margaret traveled to America with her mother, Mrs Eylin Hanford "of Fremington, county Devon", bound for Scituate, and her sister Elizabeth. They arrived at Boston on the ship Planter on June 7, 1635. Ages listed aer 46 (Mrs.), 16 (Margaret), and 14 (Elizabeth). Her mother's age is probably mis-stated, as she had been baptised three years earlier.

    Children:
    1. 7. Fear ROBINSON was born on 26 Jan 1646 in Barnstable, Barnstable, Massachusetts; died in 1704 in Norwich, New London, Connecticut.
