GRANDDAUGHTER OF RICHARD WARREN OF THE MAYFLOWER

A BIOGRAPHY OF MERCY WARREN BRADFORD, by Laurence Overmire (8th great grandson), Aug. 2008:

Mercy Warren was born Sept. 23, 1653, in Plymouth, Plymouth County, Massachusetts, the eldest of six children of Joseph and Priscilla (Faunce) Warren, and the granddaughter of Richard Warren of the Mayflower. John and Mercy shared common ancestors in Alexander Carpenter and Priscilla Dillon, who were the father and mother-in-law of Gov. William Bradford.

Mercy married Maj. John Bradford on Jan. 6, 1673/74 in Plymouth. He was the son of Maj. William Bradford and his wife Alice Richards, and the grandson of Gov. William Bradford of the Mayflower.

Mercy would give birth to seven children in the ensuing years: John (1675-1724), Alice (1677-1746), Abigail (1679-1697), Mercy (1681-1738), Samuel (1683-1740), Priscilla (1686-1732), and William (1688-1728).

Mercy and John became members of the Plymouth church in 1690. Her husband was prominent in civic affairs. He was not only a military leader, but served as representative to the First General Court at Boston and helped to incorporate Plymouth as a separate town.

Their home in Kingston, built in 1675, is still standing and open to the public today. According to tradition, the Indians attempted to burn the house during King Philip's War. John Bradford discovered the fire. He spied an Indian on Abrams Hill waving a blanket and shouting to his fellows, and shot him. But on approach, he could not find the body. After the war, the Indian met Bradford and showed him the scars of his wound.

Mercy Bradford died in March 1747, at the age of about 94, and was laid to rest in the Old Burying Bround at First Church in Kingston.

GREAT GREAT GRANDFATHER OF ARTIST WILLIAM BRADFORD

GREAT GRANDSON OF RICHARD WARREN OF THE MAYFLOWER

GREAT GRANDSON OF WILLIAM BRADFORD OF THE MAYFLOWER

UNCLE OF EXPLORER CAPT. ROBERT GRAY

MEMBER OF THE MASSACHUSETTS HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

-------------------

A BIOGRAPHY OF LT. SAMUEL BRADFORD, by Laurence Overmire (7th great grandson), Aug. 2008:

Samuel Bradford was born in Plymouth, Plymouth County, Massachusetts, Dec. 23, 1683, the fifth of seven children of Maj. John Bradford and Mercy Warren. His father was the grandson of Gov. William Bradford of the Mayflower. His mother was the granddaughter of Richard Warren of the Mayflower.

On Oct. 21, 1714, at Plympton, Massachusetts, 31-year-old Samuel married 17-year-old Sarah Gray, the daughter of Edward and Mary Smith Gray of Tiverton, Rhode Island. Sarah was the half-sister of Samuel Gray who was the second man shot at the Boston Massacre and the first American to die in the Revolutionary War. She was also the aunt of Capt. Robert Gray, the American explorer who discovered the Columbia River and staked America's claim to the Oregon Territory.

Sarah gave birth to ten children: John, Gideon, William (died in childhood), Mary, Sarah, William, Mercy (died in infancy), Abigail, Phebe, and Samuel.

Samuel inherited property from his father's estate. He also inherited Gov. William Bradford's precious manuscript, "Of Plimouth Plantation," one of the most important documents of early American history. The work was loaned to Rev. Thomas Prince who was using it as a reference for his own book that he was writing. He kept it in his library in Boston's Old South Church. The British, who occupied the Old South Church during the Revolution, then got hold of it. Later it turned up in the Bishop of London's palace and was only returned to the state of Massachusetts, after some negotiation, in 1897.

Samuel Bradford was a leading citizen of Plympton. He was Selectman several times, a Representative to the General Court, and Lieutenant of Plympton Battery. He died in Plympton on Mar. 26, 1740, at the age of 56, and was laid to rest in Ye Olde Burial Grounds there.

Notes:

The identity of Mary's parents is in dispute.

In many sources (including the Standish Silver Book), it is given as Judah (Job's brother) and Mehitable Faunce. However, the following note is in the Alden Silver Book (Vol. 16, part 5, p. 15 and 16), which should reflect later research; however, for as much detail as the writer provides, I disagree with his contention.

My reasoning is that we do not know when Judah Hall (b. 1686) died. I discovered that his son Judah Jr. was granted administration of his estate in February 1647/48, meaning that Judah Sr. had died by then. And we have (less reliable) sources to suggest that Mehitable (Faunce) Hall died in or before May 1761.

I suspect the sale recorded in May 1761 was the sale by the administrator Judah Hall, Jr. of his parent's land as divided equally by the eight heirs. I suspect that Judah, Jr. had acquired the shares of his brothers Abner, James, Enoch and Sylvanus to give control of 58ths, his brother Giles held his share, and the two orphan sons of his deceased brother Thomas made the seventh share. and then Mary as a sister would get her share. James had previously died and Judah Jr was his estate's administrator.

-----

From Alden Silver Book.

Judah³ and Mehitable (Faunce) Hall cannot be the parents of Mary Hall who m. as his second wife Joseph Samson (MF 14:61). Judah's father Elisha² Hall (John¹) was the father-in-law of William Cooke. Tabitha³ (Hall) Cooke (William's wife), daughter of Elisha Hall. Job³ Hall (Elisha², John¹), born Sept. 1691 (Barnstable Fam 1:456) is the most likely father of Mary (Hall) Samson). Job's last recorded child was Simeon Hall, b. Kingston 23 Nov. 1731.

Mary was probably a late unrecorded child of Job and Sarah (Dexter) Hall. An earlier account states that Mary was "apparently dau. of Judah and Mehitable (--) Hall" (MF 14:61) and continues with "Judah & Giles Hall implied [sic] bros. of Mary Hall." Judah and Mehitable (Faunce) Hall had seven sons, recorded at Yarmouth , and no known daughters. Their son Job is the father of Samson's first wife Sarah Hall. Giles, a separate grantor with Joseph and Mary Samson of 1/8, would not be Mary's father. Giles⁴ born 14 July 1721, son of Judah and Mehitable (Faunce) Hall, is presumably the grantor. Mehitable (Faunce) Hall's three youngest sons are not old enough to be Mary's father. The wife and children, if any of their oldest son Judah (1711-1800), have not been identified. Abner and James Hall (2^nd and 3^rd sons of Mehitable [Faunce) Hall) have what appear to be complete families. The fourth son Giles was a grantor. Mary presumably is a later unrecorded daughter of Job and Sarah (Dexter) Hall and a younger sister of Sarah (Hall) Samson. Job was born at Yarmouth 14 September 1691.

An extensive study of several men named Judah Hall was done in an attempt to identify Mary (Hall) Samson's parents. it is unclear which of many contemporary Judah Halls was the grantor of 5/8. The reason the 5/8 + 18 + 1/8 + 1/8 of the grantors is still unclear. Further research in Hall records might resolve this mystery.

On 27 March 1717 Judah Hall, yeoman of Plymouth, for £200 paid by Job Hall, yeoman of Yarmouth, sold all "my farm" where "I not long since dwelt" in Pembroke; lots 136, 138, and 128. William Cooke's right to drown to keep up his dam was reserved. (Plymouth Co. LR, 13:92R-93, ack. 27 March 1717, rec. 31 Aug. 1717). On 26 April 1731, yeoman of Kingston, and his wife Tabitha for £490 sold their dwelling house, barn, and 100 acres in Kingston to Judah Hall, weaver of Yarmouth (Plymouth Co. LR 28:68R-69, ack. 9 Dec. 1731, rec. 15 Sept. 1733).

On 5 Aug 1739 William Cooke, yeoman of Kingston, sold for £80 to Judah Hall and Job Hall in "equal halves" two parcels of land in Kingston; one parcel of about 20 acres, and the other of about four acres (ibid. 33:59, ack. [unclear] Aug, , rec. 25 Aug. 1739). On 20 Nov. 1740 Judah Hall and Job Hall, yeomen of Kingston, for £80 sold to William Cooke, yeoman of Kingston, the two parcels of land in Kingston that they had purchased from Cooke (ibid, 33:234, ack. and rec. 20 Nov. 1740).

On 21 December 1743 Samuell Seabury, yeoman of Duxbury, sold three lots (139, 140, and 141) in Kingston for £70 to Judah Hall Jr., bloomer of Kingston. Seabury reserved the privilege to drown some of the land (ibd. 36:95R-96, ack. 21 Dec. 1743, rec. 12 Jan 1743[/44]).

On 20 April 1749 Judah Hall, yeoman of Kingston, for £270 bill of credit paid by James Hall of Kingston, sold lots 139 and 140 in Kingston (upper land of Marshfield). Samuel Seabury's privilege of "drowning" what was necessary for his iron works was reserved. Silvanus Hall and Abner Wall were witnesses (ibid., 40:38, ack. 12 May, rec. 17 May 1749).

On 28 June 1756 [?1758 blurred terminal digit] Judah Hall, bloomer[blurred location --?Kingston], administrator of the estate of James Hall, late of Pembroke, for £16 sold 30 acres in Kingston (lot 136) to William Sever and John Sever, merchants of Kingston. Sarah Hall, widow of James, surrendered her dower. James, explicitly stated, has purchased this land from Judah in 1749 (ibid., 57:173R, ack. 4 July 175?, rec. 19 Aug. 1773).

On 1 October 1760 Judah Hall, yeoman or bloomer of Kingston, for £130 sold lot 141 that he had purchased from Samuel Seabury (and formerly owned by by the proprietors of Marshfield) to Peter West, bloomer of Kingston.West allowed Judah to drown from 1 Oct. to 1 April; Hannah Hall and Mary Hall were witnesses (ibid., 41:106, ack. 19 Mar 1750[/1]); rec. 9 July 1751). Peter West married, as his third wife, Tabitha Wright, a granddaughter of William Cooke and Tabitha (Hall) Cooke (MF 12:159-60, 197).

On 21 May 1761 Asahel Hall, son of Thomas Hall, chose John Faunce as his guardian. Judah Hall was surety with Faunce.  The same day John Faunce, with Judah Hall as surety, both yeoman of Kingston, was appointed guardian of Thomas Hall, son of Thomas Hall. Edward Winslow and Penelope Winslow were witnesses to several documents in this file (Plymouth Co. PR #8,878). The two boys are almost certainly the sons of Thomas and Hannah Hall. The elder Thomas was a younger brother of Judah Hall (1711-1800).

From Alden Silver Book (Vol. 16, part 5, pp. 16-17)

On 1 May 1761 Judah Hall, yeoman of Kingston, and Giles Hall, yeoman of Kingston; and Joseph Samson yeoman and Mary Samson, his wife, of Duxbury sold an undivided farm of 85 acres in Kingston for £143 to (Samson's nephew) John Maclaughhling Jr. Judah sold 5/8^ths, Giles
sold 1/8^th, and Joseph and Mary sold 1/8^th, "And is the whole of said farm including one eighth   ^{Part more belonging to [unnamed] orphan children." (Plymouth Co. LR 47:151, ack. 22 May 1761, rec. 1 Feb. 1762) It is unclear whether the Samson couple or all of the grantors sold the 1/8 that was owned by the unnamed orphans. Were the orphan's Sarah (Hall) Samson's children or of Thomas Hall?}
