1901 In vital records, Samuel Wight diary mentions Joseph died in his 81st year, "gast entred". Joseph Wight inherited his father's homestead and buildings on North Street, Medfield. The surname of his wife Mercy has thus far eluded most diligent search. Joseph was married second to Mrs. Martha Thayer of Bellingham, Mass. To this town he removed in 1729, selling his Medfield estate. His name appears, 23 November, 1737, in the first list of members of Bellingham Baptist church, of which he was one of the deacons. Martha Thayer Wight's will discloses that she had a daughter who was married to Jonathan Thompson.

Joseph Wight came to Bellingham in 1729 and was the grandson of Thomas Wight who was at Watertown in 1635 and Dedham in 1637. Thomas and his wife Alice moved to Medfield. Their son Samuel married Hannah Albee, and his house was burned by Indians. His son Joseph b. 1675, married Martha Thayer.

1925 Inventory taken: Books were listed among the items on his inventory along with a pewter spoon, arms & ammunition, and 3 blankets as the items with most value. Livestock consisted of "2 yearlings, 2 steers, one heefer, one horse and 6 cows". He had dairy vessels with beer barrel and was owed 23 shillings from Richard Bullock. [This could not have been his son, Richard who was born shortly before he died, therefore, there must have been another Richard Bullock in New England area at that time, possibly the Richard who was listed in Newtown, Long Island was this other Richard Bullock.

The largest part of the estate went to the oldest son, Samuel and deciding that debts due from Richard's estate were satisfied, on 29 October 1670, the Court gave widow Elizabeth, the remaining cattle from Richard's estate, stating that she had "with care and industry, brought up divers smale children since the death of her husband and still is careful and industrious to bring them up, some of them yet being smale". She was given three cows and a mare that were left from the estate.

1930 Is earliest mentioned in the Massachusetts Bay Colony Records on 18-Jan-1640/1, as follows: "Mr. James Parker is alowed to marry Thomas Clifton & Mary Butterworth within a month." (Massachusetts Bay Colony Records, 1: 313). It does not state that these were Weymouth people, but Rev. James Parker sold a house and lands at Weymouth, 26-Nov-1644, and Thomas Clifton had six acres of land granted to him in the "west field" and two acres in "Harrises Rainge first given to Samuel Butterworth." He was made a freeman of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, 02-Jun-1641, and of Plymouth Colony 07-Jun-1648. At a town meeting 30-Jun-1644, Thomas Clifton drew lot 48 at Rehoboth. He drew lot 19 there 09-Jun-1645 and lot No. 5 in the "new meadow" there 18-Feb-1646. No vital records for this family are found at Weymouth nor at Rehoboth. Savage says he removed to Rhode Island.

Thomas Clifton was an original settler of Rehoboth, Massachusetts, 1643, and subsequently became a Quaker. On account of being persecuted for his faith he went to Rhode Island, where he lived when he paid for a share of land in Monmouth. His daughter, Hope Clifton, was also a victim of Quaker persecution. He was a deputy in the Rhode Island colonial assembly, 1675.

1934 Isaac Allerton was born in England about 1583-1586, but his parentage has not been identified. He may be related to Mayflower passenger John Allerton, but no relationship between them has been documented. Isaac Allerton is found in several Leyden records, and his sister Sarah married Degory Priest there on the same day as Issac's marriage to Mary Norris. A John Allerton and a Robert Allerton can also be found in Leyden records.

On 18 June 1618 in Leyden, Isaac Allerton, tailor, made a sworn statement for Nicholas Claverly, witnessed by Degory Priest. On 9 January 1619, Isaac Allerton made agreement with Alice Gallant, widow of John Hooke and current wife of Henry Gallant, to apprentice her twelve-year old son John Hooke to Isaac Allerton, to learn the tailor trade. John Hooke came with Isaac on the Mayflower, but died the first winter.

William Bradford, c1650, included in his passenger list of the Mayflower: "Mr Isaack Allerton, and Mary his wife; with .3. children Bartholomew, Remember, and Mary. and a servant boy, John Hooke." He later wrote "Mr. Allerton his wife died with the first, and his servant John Hooke. His son Bartle is married in England but I know not how many children he hath. His daughter Remember is married at Salem and hath three or four children living. And his daughter Mary is married here and hath four children. Himself married again with the daughter of Mr. Brewster and hath one son living by her, but she is long since dead. And he is married again and hath left this place long ago. So I account his increase to be eight, besides his sons in England." On September 26, 1636 Isaac made a deposition in Boston stating he was aged about 53 years.

He was one of the Eight Men Council to Director at New Amsterdam. He lived with his family at New Haven, but operated a trading company at New Amsterdam.

Isaac Allerton has a relatively small number of descendants compared to other Mayflower passengers, but is an ancestor to Presidents Zachary Taylor and Franklin D. Roosevelt.

1940 Isaac Stearns is listed with the Winthrop Fleet of 1630 -Banks (page 92). He is from Stoke Nayland, Suffolk Co, England, occupation tailor. Freeman 18 May 1631. With him, listed as passengers are Mary Barker Stearns, his wife (daughter of John Barker of Stoke Nayland); John Stearns, son; Abigail, Elizabeth, Hannah, and Mary, daughters.

ORIGIN: Nayland with Wissington, Suffolk
MIGRATION: 1630
FIRST RESIDENCE: Watertown
OCCUPATION: Tailor.
FREEMAN: 18 May 1631 (as "Isaacke Sterne') [MBCR 1:366].
EDUCATION: He signed his will.
OFFICES: Trial jury, 3 May 1631 [MBCR 1:86]. Watertown selectman, 8 November 1647, 7 November 1670 [WaTR 1:10, 102]. Committee to design a bridge, 28 December 1647 [WaTR 1:11]. Fence viewer, 13 June 1648 [WTR 1:16]. Rater, 1652 [WaTR 1:31]. Viewer of land, 3 January 1658[/9] [WaTR 1:59]. Town meeting held at his house, 8 December 1659, 13 December 1670 [WaTR 1:63,103]. Constable, 1659-61 [WaTR 1:65, 67, 74]. Surveyor of highways, 12 January 1662[/3] [WaTR 1:75]. Committee to speak with William Knopp about the education of his daughter [WaTR 1: 1 04].
ESTATE: On 25 July 1636 "Isaac Sterne' was granted fifty acres in the Great Dividend [WaBOP 5]. On 28 February 1636/7 he received eleven acres in the Beaverbrook Plowlands [WaBOP 7) and on 26 June 1637 eleven acres in the Remote Meadows [WaBOP 8]. On 10 May 1642 he was granted a Farm of two hundred and fifty-nine acres [WaBOP 12].

In the Watertown Inventory of Grants 'Isaac Sterne" held nine parcels: homes~lall of twelve acres; ten acres of upland; two acres of meadow; two acres of meadow in Plain Meadow; 'three acres of upland ... being a homestall'; 'fifty acres of upland being a Great Dividend"; "twenty-seven acres of upland ... beyond the Further Plain & the fourth lot"; twelve acres of plowland in the Further Plain (Beaverbrook Plowlands); and twelve acres of Remote Meadow [WABOP 77-78]. In the Inventory of Possessions he held three parcels: two acres of meadow in Pond Meadow (formerly owned by Richard Kimball); ten acres of Remote Meadow (originally granted to William Jennison); and a Great Dividend of sixty acres (formerly granted to William Jennison) [WaBOP 117]. In the Composite Inventory he held thirteen parcels, being the twelve listed above (with some minor adjustments) and a farm of two hundred and fifty-nine acres (WaBOP 22].

On 16 April 1664 "Isaac Sternes" of Watertown deeded to "my son Samuel Sternes ... one messuage or tenement ... in the above named town and is the now dwelling house of the said Samuel Sternes containing one dwelling house with a parcel of land adjoining thereunto by estimation four acres' and "one parcel of land granted me by the town called In Lieu of the Township, and five acres of meadow land in that meadow called Nonesuch" [MLR 4:123).

'Goodwife Stearns Senior' was one of several Watertown residents warned to town meeting to answer for not "attending their seats in the meetinghouse appointed them by the town' [WaTR 1:85]. She died at Watertown on 23 April 1677 [WaVR 42].

COMMENTS: The terms of the will of Isaac Stearns make it clear that John was his eldest son. He may also have been the oldest child, but there is a four-year gap between the last child recorded as born in England and the first recorded as born in Watertown; placing John in this gap would be consistent with his approximate date of marriage. Since he was not recorded as born at Watertown, he may have been born aboard ship in 1630, or in some English parish where the Stearns family possibly perched briefly before sailing for New England.

On 4 December 1638 Isaack Sternes and John Page were fined 5s. for "turning the way about" [MBCR 1:247].

About 1643 Isaacke Sterne of Waterton in New England, planter, sometimes of Stoke Nayland in the County of Suffolke, tailor, and Mary his wife, daughter of John Barker late of Stoke Nayland aforesaid, clothier, deceased,' made a letter of attorney to Thomas Gilson of Sudbury, baker, to claim a bond of 5 pound agreed to be paid before Munnings married Margaret Barker, mother of the said Mary [Lechford 291-92].

1941 Isaac Stiles (son of John Windsor) settler, m. Hannah, dau. of Henry Palmer of Wetherfield before 1664/5 when he bought land from his father in law. Family F1696
 
1942 Isaiah Griffin son of Richard, was quite a witty fellow, and was noted for his quickness in repartee, and clever sayings. He was a shrewd business man as well. A most amusing incident is related of him in connection with the sale of a horse. The buyer asked him the age of the animal, Isaiah, who was inflicted with an impediment in his speech, a pronounced stammerer, replied, "Ers now--, now two--, ers now, now, two, ers, seven,-- seven, seven,-- years old." The purchaser well satisfied with his bargain, took the horse home. The next day he met a friend and neighbor, who to his surprise and consternation told him that the animal was at least twenty years old. Naturally he lost no time in finding Isaiah, and in a great rage shouted "Why man you told me that horse was only seven years old!" "Now hold on," said Isaiah, "not so fast, I said he was-- 'Ers now, Ers now-- that he was s-s-seven s-seven, s-seven years old,'--three sevens are twenty-one!"

At another time when negotiating with the prospective purchaser of a yoke of oxen, and being asked if the beasts were "breechy" he said in his own inimitable manner, "Ers now, now, to Ers now,--now to,--I always find them, just where I leave them," which answer satisfied the gentleman, and the deal being consummated, the buyer took his oxen home with him, congratulating himself on what a pair of beauties he had so fortunately and cheaply secured. He turned them loose in a field over night. Next morning he found that they had thrown down the fence, and were free to wander all over the farm. Of course the owner went in hot haste to Isaiah with his woeful complaint "I thought you said they were not "breechy" he exclaimed,--Isaiah, like George Washington, had indeed told the plain unvarnished truth, "Ers now, now to --I never told you any such thing." "Ers now to"--I told you I always found them, where I left them!" "Where did you leave them?" asked the complainant, Isaiah replied, " I chained them up to a stump every night."

1943 Israel and Deborah resided in Mendon and Uxbridge. Children. Partridge, Deborah (I11812)
 
1944 Israel probably died unmarried. He served in King Philip's War and was "slain by the heathen in the country's service". Administration of his estate was granted to his brother, Ebenezer Hill on 31 July 1677. Hill, Israel (I11187)
 
1945 It has not been proven that her maiden name was Eaton. Eaton, Rebecca (I22421)
 
1946 It is believed that William had a 1st wife, also named Elizabeth so this marriage could have occured later. Family F2770
 
1947 It is claimed she was born in the rectory of North Leigh, Devon. Hull, Elizabeth (I46476)
 
1948 It is not known whether Silvanus or Joanna were Quakers, but many of their descendants were. Their great-grandson, Job Scott was, in the latter half of the 18th century, one of the most noted Friends' ministers living. Silvanus be came Major Silvanus Scott, and entered town politics early in life. He rose to great stature in his day. He married Joanna Jenckes who was the sister of Governor Jenckes of Rhode Island. !NEHGR Vol. 60:168-175 - Apr 1906 Scott, Sylvanus (I18571)
 
1949 It is possible that Susan was a second wife and not mother of the younger children. Family F2062
 
1950 It is supposed that Isaac was born in a town called Conklin, Broome Co, NY. However, Conklin was formed in 1824 from the town of Chenango and Broome County was taken from Tioga County in 1806. Tioga was formed from Montgomery County. Chenango was in Montgomery County in 1790 (census). Apparently, if Isaac was born in this vicinity, it must have been while it was Tioga. Another town that was later in Broome county was Chemung.
Hilary Thorne has done extensive research there for Isaac's birth and parentage and has not found direct evidence for either in Broome Co. 
Conklin, Isaac (I1807)
