  • Notes 
    • From FindaGrave:

      Born about 1604 (deposed 21 March 1655/6 aged fifty-two years). Tailor, trader,& agent from Barnstable, Devonshire who came to Massachusetts Bay in 1632 on the "Charles." First settled in Dorchester; moved to Boston in 1658, Casco ME in 1666, Falmouth MA in 1669, Saco ME in 1672, & Boston in 1676. Died in Boston 7 July 1686; buried there 9 July 1686.

      MARRIAGE: (1) Barnstaple, Devonshire, 25 September 1627 Joanna Thorne, daughter of James and Julian (Segarde) Thorne. She died at Dorchester 5 August 1640.

      (2) Late in 1640 or early in 1641 Thomasine _____; living at Boston 2 January 1691/2, when Samuel Sewall visited "Mrs. Collucott;" died Sherborn 22 August 1692, aged 74, without having completed administration of her husband's estate.

      The General Court spoke well when they described Richard Collicott as "read[y] ... at all times to be servicable to the country." His energy in moving from place to place, pursuing business and trade, was daunting. His suits were brought in almost every New England court of the time, both on his own account or as agent for friends or customers.
