John Sargent

#504, Deceased, (1639-1716)
Pedigree Link

Parents

Biography

  • John Sargent was born in December 1639 in Charlestown, Massachusetts.
  • He moved with his parents William and Sarah to Barnstable, Massachusetts.
  • John was admitted freeman in 1662 in Barnstable, Massachusetts.1
  • John married Deborah Hillier, daughter of Hugh Hillier and Rose (née unknown) Hillier, on 19 March 1662/63 in Barnstable, Massachusetts.2
  • The names were identified as Serjant and Hyllier.2
  • He was a selectman of the town of Barnstable for 6 years.3
  • His wife Deborah died on 20 April 1669 leaving him a widower at age 29 . At the time he had three children, the eldest being six years old.
  • John moved to Malden, Massachusetts.4
  • John married Mary Bense on 3 September 1669 in Malden, Massachusetts.5
  • Mary died in February 1670/71 in Malden, Massachusetts, at age ~32.6
  • He was a Private in King Philip's War under Lieutenant Gillam and Major Savage.7
  • John married Lydia Chipman, daughter of John Chipman and Hope Howland, about 1675 in Barnstable, Massachusetts.3
  • Lydia Chipman had Mayflower pedigree. Her mother was Hope Howland (1629-1684). Hope was the third child of John Howland (1592-1673) and Elizabeth Tilley (1607-1688). Both John Howland and Elizabeth Tilley arrived in America on the Mayflower. Therefore all eleven of Lydia and John Sargent's children and their descendants are eligible to join the Mayflower Society.8
  • In May 1695 Malden made a division of two thousand three hundred acres of common lands. The distribution was by lot to all freeholders in the town, in proportion to their ratable estates,--an average of about thirty acres to each man. Among the names are John Sargent, St., and John Sargent, Jr. It was voted by the town -- showing confidence in this integrity and fairness - "that John Sargent, sen'r, is the man to draw the lots."3
  • John Sargent died on 9 September 1716 in Malden, Massachusetts, at age 76.6
  • He was buried in Bell Rock Cemetery, Malden, Massachusetts. On his gravestone in the cemetery his name is spelled Sargant. His brothers in the same cemetary are spelled Sargent.3
  • It is a circumstance worthy of incidental mention, perhaps, that the first and third wives of John Sargent (who was born in Massachusetts Bay Colony) were born in Plymouth Colony; so that the mingled blood of the Pilgrim and the Puritan of these two noted colonies (which afterwards became the Commonwealth of Massachusetts) flows in the veins of all his descendants.

Biography

  • William Sargent was baptized on 20 June 1602 in All Saints' Church, Northampton, England.1
  • William married Hannah (née unknown) Sargent estimated 1626.2
  • On 20 July 1626 William was made freeman in Northampton. He was a senior bailiff in 1632-33.
  • William Sargent was a haberdasher; also a planter and a lay Preacher.3
  • His wife Hannah died in September 1632 in Northampton, Northamptonshire, England, leaving him a widower .4
  • William married Marie (née unknown) Sargent estimated 1633.2
  • His wife Marie died about 1637 in England leaving him a widower .
  • William married Sarah (née unknown) Minshall in 1637/38 in England.
  • He immigrated to Charlestown, Massachusetts, in 1638 together with Sarah (née unknown) Minshall with two daughters (Hannah and Elizabeth).5
  • Possibly William left England to avoid persecution because he was a non-conformist. He was a member, like his father, of All Saints Church in Northampton. Owing to the Puritan spirit prevailing in the early 17th century many of the forms and ceremonies were discarded. But when Bishop Laud, later Archbishop of Cantebury, who hated the Puritans, came to power he ordered them restored and censored the people. We do not know whether William was marked for punishment. His father Roger had been Mayor of Northampton and his older brother Joseph was mayor after William's departure. The family was of the minor gentry. No clue of the English ancestry or place of residence had survived among his descendants. We don't know the name of their ship. Not until 1885 was the seventeenth century diary of Thomas Lechford published,which mentioned William & Sarah, their place of origin and their parents.6,3
  • William was admitted freeman in 1639 in Mass Bay Colony (Charlestown.)5
  • On 10 March 1638/39 William was admitted to the church; Sarah 1 week later.5,7
  • In 1649 the new town (Mystic Side) was set off from Charlestown, and called Malden. William was a lay preacher 1648-1650 until a minister was appointed. William's farm was on the southerly slope of a hill-afterwards called Belmont Hill in Malden (now called Everett). It was on both sides of what was afterwards the Newburyport Tpke, later called Broadway. Part of his house was standing until 1890.5
  • In 1653 He was a preacher in Barnstable - said to have followed Reverend John Lothrop. He was associated with Reverend Richard Bourne in Christianizing the Mashpee Indians. Richard Bourne married his daughter Ruth. He seems to have been a prominent man in Barnstable as he had been in Malden. His name in Middlesex County Court files 1661 as plaintiff to recover the rent of his farm in Malden.8
  • William and Sarah moved to Barnstable, Massachusetts, with their family.
  • William was admitted freeman estimated 1657 in Plymouth Colony, Massachusetts.
  • He died on 16 December 1682 in Barnstable, Massachusetts.9
  • Inventory of his estate was taken on 3 March 1682/83 £309.14.9 The House and land at Maulden according to the information we have from John Searjeant, besides what John Sarjeant hath added to it £176.00.00.10
  • William is a Gateway Ancestor, having descent to Ethelred II the Unready, King of England.11
  • William had 3 wives and 9 children. 2 children from his 1st wife survived and came to America. 2 children from his 2nd wife died in infancy. his 3rd wife and the 2 older children came to America - the remaining 3 children were born in America. 9 children, 30 grandchildren.
