ELDER EDMUND FROST1, born in Hartest, sailed from Ipswich, England, on the ship Great Hope, but the vessel was wrecked off Yarmouth. Later, August 10, 1635, he sailed from Gravesend, Kent, with his wife Thomasine and son John, and after a 54-day voyage, the ship Defence, Captain Bostock, Master, arrived in Boston Harbor October 2, 1635. The entire company under their spiritual leader, the Rev. Thomas Shepard, settled at Cambridge, Mass. Mr. Frost was one of the first members of the First Congregational Church of Cambridge and was installed as its first Ruling Elder February 11, 1636. He was sworn a freeman March 3, 1636, and ca 1639 bought of Thomas Blodgett property on the west side of Dunster street between Harvard Square and Mt. Auburn street; this he sold and bought a house on Garden street; after 1646 he occupied a homestead on Kirkland street. All fared equally with the General Court as to fines; none escaped. "4 Sept. 1646, Elder Frost, for letting his two oxen goe to feed on ye common, taken once is fined one shilling."
Elder Frost was a devout Puritan, a saintly man with no desire to amass wealth as did many of his confreres, but many visitors came to his humble home attracted by the nobility of his character. When Colonel Goffe, the "regicide" (one of those who sentenced Charles I to death), came to New England, he went to see Edmund Frost and wrote of the visit in his journal, August 23, 1660, "In ye evening wee vissited Elder Frost, who rec'd us with great kindness and love, esteeming it a favour yt we would come into ye mean habitation, assured us of his fervent prayers to ye Lord for us; a glorious saint makes a mean cottage a stately palace; were I to make my choice, I would rather abide with ye saint in his poor cottage than with any of ye princes I know of at ye day ye world."
Elder Frost received a large grant of land in Billerica which he seems to have given to his son James who went there to live. Edmund married (2) Mary (???), and (3) before 1669, Reana (James-Andrew), widow of Robert Daniels, who died ca 1676. Rev. Thomas Shepard in his autobiography called Edmund "my most dear brother Frost". The revered Elder died July 12, 1672, and his will was signed with his written signature and named his children, all but the first born in Cambridge. To his wife Reana, he left the use of his land and 20 shillings a year during her lifetime, to be paid in corn or cattle by sons Ephraim and Thomas; also 20 shillings a year to be paid by son John. There were other cash bequests and the dwelling was left to Ephraim and Thomas. | Frost, Edmund (I28590)

Eleazer Hill was a husbandman, and resided in Sherborn until his death, in 1725. He died intestate, and on 28 Sep 1725, his sons Eleazer, Solomon, Nathaniel, and Moses, and daughter Ruth wife of John Holbrook, signed an agreement of settlement. He married first, about 1688, Sarah, daughter of Thomas and Mary (Hill) Breck, of Sherborn. 18 Oct 1703, Eleazer Hill was appointed guardian for his children Eleazer, Moses, Nathaniel, Ruth and Solomon, of their interests in the estate of their grandfather Thomas Breck. | Hill, Eleazer (I11060)
|
1256 |
Eleazer inherited his father's homestead in Medfield, and resided there until about 1723, when he purchased a tract of land in Bellingham, and removed there. This property was in the vicinity of what is now North Bellingham, which for a century and a half was known as Partridgetown, and is still so designated by the oldest inhabitants. His will was proved 2 Dec 1736. Bequests were made to his sons Eleazer, Job, Joseph, Benjamin and Zachariah; his daughter Abigail Clark; and three of his grandchildren, Joseph, Sarah, and Reuben Ellis. His children were all born in Medfield. | Partridge, Eleazer (I11822)
|
1257 |
Eleazer probably never married. He removed to Barnstable, being admitted an inhabitant there between 1660 and 1670. He was killed in that desperate battle with the Narrangansett Indians of March 15, 1676. He fought under the command of Captain Michael Pierce, of Scituate. It was a bravely contested and sanguinary battle, and out of 70 whites and friendly Indians, 63 were killed. This fight took place in the town of Rehoboth. The whites and their company killed about three times teir number of Indians. | Clap, Eleazer (I23344)

Elected with Aaron Norcross as Overseers of the Poor. "Abraham Harrison kept tavern at the corners (Groveland Corners) about 1825 and remained till as late as 1830 in the house across from the store."
In the Minutes of the Presbyterian Church of Groveland (organized 1809), the name of Abraham Harrison appears as a ruling elder from 1818 to 1824. He and John Harrison were trustees in 1829 when a new house of worship was built. One of the articles of agreement between the builders and the trustees read as follows:
"The said party of the second part (viz: trustees,) agrees to deliver all the material on the spot where the said building is to stand; to ask the hands and furnish the liquor for raising of the building and be at the expense of the same." | Harrison, Abraham (I26359)

Eliakim MORSE was among those who voted 2 March 1829, to form a religious society called the Evangelical Congregational Society of Oakham, MASS. This was a very controversial split from the established Congregational Church. He was signer number 39. Lucinda MORSE is listed as a member of the Evangelical Congregational Church in Oakham, MA in 1833 and 1834. Eliakim is listed as a member of the Evangelical Congregational Society 1 May 1856 in Oakham.
!Records of the Evangelical Congregational Church, Oakham, MA
In the Settlement and Story of Oakham, Mass., Eliakim is listed as "of Franklin and West Springfield. He was the son of Moses and Lydia (Daniels) Morse and a descendant of Samuel Morse of Dedham (1637). He was "Surveyor of Highways" 1817, 1824, 1829, 1833, and 1841 (excused in 1841). Eliakim was "Field Driver" in 1830 and 1839 for the town of Oakham. He was chairman ("centre") of the school committee in 1823. | Morse, Eliakim (I5769)

Elias Parkman was granted four acres at Naponset Neck in Dorchester, MA 5 Aug 1633; other lots in 1635 & 1636; and he moved early to Windsor, CT. Roger Clapp, no doubt at least an acquaintance of Elias, came on the "Mary and John" in 1630 and most of these passengers moved to Windsor between 1635 and 1640. Consequently, Elias could have also been a passenger on the "Mary & John" (1630), although this is unproven.
If not, he probably came on the unnamed ship that sailed from Weymouth, Dorset, with 80 passengers and landed in Boston on 24 July 1633. Many of these passengers were granted land in Dorchester immediately after landing. Winthrop, in his journal, mentions "a ship arriving from Weymouth (England) with about 80 passengers, twelve cattle, who sat down at Dorchester. They were twelve weeks enroute, being forced into the Western Islands (Azores?) by a leak. They remained there three weeks and were very courteously used by the Portugals, but the extremity of the heat there, and the continual rain, brought sickness upon them, so as (a #) of them died."
NOTE: It is believed that Aquila Purchase was one of those who died aboard this ship. The wife of Aquila was Ann Squire, sister of Mrs. Henry Adams. Also aboard this ship was Richard Rockett of Dorset.
Elias was a mariner and he set up a shipping trade between Boston and the Connecticut River (Windsor). He was in Windsor in 1640 where in the land inventory on 5 Feb 1640/1 "Elias Parkeman" had seven parcels: "a homelot with the additions, fifteen acres"; "in the little meadow withswamp adjoining eight acres";"in the second meadow five acres and half"; "over the Great River in breadth twenty-five rods, in length three miles"; "on the south of the rivulet, sixteen acres"; "in the pallisado half an acre"; and "in the great meadow for a garden plot in breadth four rod, in length six rod."
"Elias Parkeman" in 1646 mortgaged property to William Wadsworth of Hartford and was "of Seabrooke (Saybrook) lately inhabitant of Winsor."
On 2 August 1652 "Elias Parkeman" mortgaged to Mr. Robert Peteshall on house with land belonging to it, now "in the tenure of Thomas Tyler of Boston." On 3 August 1652 "Elias Parkman of Boston, mariner & master of the good pinace called the Supplye of Boston" sold to Mr. John Holland of Dorchester "my now dwelling house situated in Boston, together with my home lot, being in measure one acre."
On 7 August 1657 George Palmer of Boston, wine cooper, sold to Elias Parkman of Boston, mariner, a parcel of land in Boston together with the "house, shop & cellar thereon" formerly in the occupation of Hermon Garret, gunsmith, also a garden plot and a way into the garden, and use of the well. This plot was given to Deliverance and Nathaniel Parkman after their father's death by Silvester Eveleth and his wife Bridget, the widow of Elias, 24 November 1674. | Parkman, Elias (I17050)

Eliphalet (2), son of Eliphalet (1) Holbrook, was born 25 Oct 1725. He died intestate, and administration was granted his son Henry, on whom the homestead was settled, 10 Apr 1778. Eliphalet and Abigail resided in Bellingham where their children's births are recorded.

Eliphalet Holbrook obtained of Sylvanus Holbrook in 1716 by exchange 65 acres on the Country Road and Beaver Pond River in Bellingham. In 1737, Eliphalet Holbrook was among the fifteen founders of the Baptist Church in Bellingham, the fourth Baptist church in all of Massachusetts. The other fourteen original signers were Nicholas Cook, Benjamin Force, Ebenezer Hayward, Eleazer Hayward, Samuel Hayward, Joseph Partridge, Edward Pickering, Eleazer Taft, John Thompson, Jonathan Thompson, Peter Thompson, Samuel Thompson, Elnathan Wight, Joseph Wight.
He with Jonathan Thomson and Joseph Wight received in 1744 the deed from Elnathan Wight of the land for the 1st Baptist Church at Crimpville. In 1767, Eliphalet Holbrook, weaver, deeded his homestead on both sides of the road from Mendon to Boston to his son Eliphalet. He was town clerk for six years at three different
times, and treasurer for 12 years in all at five different times. He died in 1777 and left 8 children.
28 Holbrooks were born in Bellingham before 1750 and 190 before 1850, making this the largest family in town.

Elizabeth Garrard was charged with adultery, haveing "committed folly with a stranger in the absence of her husband and brought forth a base child." Found guilty, her sentence was reduced due to many circumstances, including her "husband's extreme bad carriage towards her and beating of her and making no suitable provision for her maintenance and in going from her and not returning to her for some years." She was whipped and fined 10 pounds. She accused Joshua Grant, probably her sister's widower, whose estate in the custody of Matthew Beckwith was seized for the use of Elizabeth Garrard's child 2 June 1674. Meanwhile, in Rhode Island, her first husband sued her for adultery in the Rhode Island General Court, but did not appear to press charges. | Beckwith, Elizabeth (I33373)
