Genealogy - The Old Families of Salisbury and Amesbury, Massachusetts, Vol. 1: With Some Related Families of Newbury, Haverhill, Ipswich and Hampton (Classic Reprint)

Description

Book Synopsis: Excerpt from The Old Families of Salisbury and Amesbury, Massachusetts, Vol. 1: With Some Related Families of Newbury, Haverhill, Ipswich and Hampton

Often the introduction of a new surname into Amesbury or Salisbury was caused by the marriage of a young man from some other town to the daughter or granddaughter of one of the original settlers.

One is often surprised to find how constant and frequent was the intercourse between different towns of New England in those early days and visits to Old England were not infrequent with the first generation, as in the case of John Wheelwright, William Hooke, Robert Pike, John Eaton, Robert Ring, and others. It is also a matter of surprise that so many of the first settlers, Francis Dow, Thomas Dummer, Samuel Groom, John Hall, Samuel Hall, John Hodges, John Sanders, and others, - returned to England and spent the remainder of their days there.
