5. Thomas Loring, was a freeman in 1635-6. His descendants now reside in Hingham, Hull, Boston, &c. " 1661, April, Thomas Loring sometimes a Deacon to the church at Hingham died at Hull." Hobart's Diary.
6. John Strong, a freeman of Massachusetts, in 1636-7, removed to Taunton. He was a freeman on the list of that town in 1643. He removed from Taunton to Northampton as early as 1659. He was undoubtedly the ancestor of the numerous families of that name in the County of Hampshire.
7. David Phippen's name appears afterwards in Boston. He was a freeman in 1635-6.
8. Thomas Andrews. "Old Thomas Andrews died" in August, 1643 .- Hobart's Diary.
9. Joseph Andrews, son of the preceding, a freeman in 1635-6, was the first constable of Hingham, Town Clerk for many years from 1637, a deputy at the May and September Courts, 1636, also, in three Courts of the following year, and again in May, 1638, and was often elected to other municipal offices. He died January 1, 1679-80, aged 83. His will was made September 27, 1679, and proved soon after his decease. In it he mentions his sons Joseph, Ephraim and Thon- as. He had also several grand-children bearing his name. His son Capt. Thomas, was in the Canada Expedition, 1690. His grandson, Rev. Jedidiah, was a minister in Philadelphia.
10. William Walton is supposed by Farmer to be the same who came from Seaton, in Devonshire, England, freeman 1635-6, and a minister of Marblehead nearly thirty years, though not ordained. His name is erroneously called Waltham by Mather. He was in Marble- head as early as 1639. A will of William Waltham, of Weymouth,
37
is recorded in the Suffolk Registry, proved Dec. 30, 1641. The tes- tator appoints his father, (perhaps of Marblehead,) Executor. A cove North of Otis Hill bears the name of Walton.
11. Richard Betscome or Betsham, a freeman in 1636-7. Nothing can be gathered from the records of his descendants.
12. Thomas Wakely, a freeman in 1635-6. One of this name died in Ilingham, June 23, 1644, perhaps a son of the above named. Far- mer thinks the elder Wakely is the same, who, with his wife, son , daughter in law and two grand-children, was murdered by the Indi- ans at Casco Bay, in 1675. This is probable, as this Wakely was " an old man."
13. William Arnall or Arnold. Probably one of the founders of the First Baptist Church in Rhode Island.
14. Nicholas Jacob, came from Hingham, England, in 1633, resid- ed a short time at Watertown, freeman 1635-6, a deputy in 1648 and 1649, died June 5, 1657. He had sons John and Joseph. His daugh- ter Mary married John Otis, Elizabeth married John Thaxter and Sarah, John Cushing. The descendants of Nicholas Jacob are nu- merous in Hingham and Scituate.
15. Edmund Hobart, Jr. a freeman in 1634, son of Edmund and brother of Rev. Peter Hobart. Edmund, Jr's sons were Samuel, Daniel, John. Hle died February, 1685-6, aged 82.
16. John Smart, probably removed to Exeter, where his name ap- pears in 1647, and in the vicinity of which, and in other parts of New Hampshire, the name still exists .- Farmer.
17. Edmund Hobart, Senior, a freeman in 1633-4, first settled at Charlestown, where he was constable in 1634. He removed to Hing- ham in 1635. He was a deputy in 1639, 1640 and 1642. He died March 8, 1645-6. He was the father of Rev. Peter Hobart, Ed- mund, Thomas and Joshua.
18. Joshua Hobart, son of the preceding, a freeman in 1634, ac- companied his father to this country, in 1633. He was frequently one of the selectmen, a captain, a deputy in 1643, re-elected twenty- four times, Speaker of the House of Deputies in 1674, died July 28,
38
1682, aged 67. He had sons Joshua and Enoch, (mentioned in his will,) and John, according to the information furnished to Rev. Mr. Schroeder, the Biographer of Bishop Hobart. This John went to the southern part of the continent before Penn's settlement of Pennsylva- nia ; on his return homeward, he married in a Swedish family, where Philadelphia was afterwards built, and he settled on a spot now call- ed Kensington, a northern suburb of that city. His son Enoch Ho- bart, who died Oct. 27, 1776, was the father of John H. Hobart, D. D. the eminent Bishop of New York, who died at Auburn, Sept. 12, 1830, aged 55 .- Schroeder's Memoir.
19. Peter Hobart, Pastor of the Church. He had a large family. He mentions fourteen children in his will, (made January 16, 1678-9, proved Feb. 26, same year.) Of these, Joshua, born in England, and graduated at Harvard in 1650, was settled in the ministry at Sonthold, L. I. where he died in Feb. 1716-17, aged 89. Jeremiah, also born in England, was graduated at Harvard in 1650, settled in the ministry at Topsfield, Mass. then at Hempstead, L. I., afterwards at Haddam, Con., where he died " the latter end of February 1716-17," aged 87. Gershom, an eccentric clergyman, born in Hingham in Dec. 1645, graduated at Harvard, 1667, settled in the ministry at Groton, Mass. but was dismissed. He died Dec. 19, 1707, aged 62. Japheth, born in April, 1647, graduated at Harvard in 1667, was educated a physician, and was lost at sea on a passage to the East Indies. Nehemiah, born in November, 1648, graduated at Harvard in 1667, was settled in the ministry at Newton, Mass. Dec. 23, 1674, and died August 25, 1712. Rev. Peter Hobart's grandson Nehemiah was the first minister of Cohasset, Mass., and another grandson Noah was a minister of Fair- field, Con. Rev. Peter Hobart was made a freeman Sept. 2, 1635.
20. Nathaniel Peck, died, according to Hobart's Diary, August 4, 1676.
21. Richard Osborn, probably left Hingham at a very early date. I can find no account of him.
22. George Marsh, a freeman in 1635-6, died July 2, 1647.
23. George Lane, died June, 1689.
24. George Ludkin, a freeman in 1635-6, removed to Braintree, where he died February 20, 1647-8.
39
25. Nicholas Baker, a freeman in March, 1635-6, a deputy at the May Court, 1636, and again in 1638, lived at the foot of Baker's Hill, which received its name from him or his brother Nathaniel. In 1642, he made application for lands at Seekonk, but he did not remove there. In 1657, he received several grants of land in Hull, among them a " home lot" and resided there. After the death of President Dunster, Pastor of the First Church in Scituate, Mr. Baker was in- vited to preach there. Mr. Deane says, " where and when he had qualified himself for the ministry we have not learned : but the prob- ability is, that without a regular education, by the force of his own talents, he had acquired a respectable degree of theological knowl- edge, and by the virtues of his life he had recommended himself to the public." He was ordained in Scituate in 1660. He was instru- mental in producing a reconciliation of the two Churches at Scituate, which had held no communion with each other for thirty five years. Cotton Mather gives a favorable notice of him in the Magnalia. Mr. Baker died August 22, 1G78, at Scituate, where he left descendants.
26. Nathaniel Baker, brother of the preceding, was a large land- holder. He died June 3, 1682. In his will executed May 11, 1682, he disposes of his estate chiefly among his grand-children, Joseph Loring and others, children of John Loring. He also makes provi- sion for his wife, his two Indian servants, and he gives 10s. a piece to the children of his brother Nicholas, late of Scituate.
27. Andrew Lane, was living in Hingham in 1671, and doubtless was the same who died May 1, 1675.
28. George Bacon, died in 1642. We have no account of his de- scendants.
29. Thomas Collier, died in Hingham 6 (2) 1646, (6 April, 1646) Suffolk Records, but according to Hobart 1647, aged 71. His family removed to HIull where Thomas Collier son of our Thomas had grants of land in 1657. Thence descendants moved to Scituate.
30. Francis Smith, a freeman in 1637, removed to Taunton. A will of Francis Smith of that place was made 1679, when the testator was GO years of age. He owned a " share in the iron works." This might have been a son of the Hingham Francis, because if the latter he would have been but 16 years of age when he received grants of land in Hingham.

It is proper to remark, that many of the grants above mentioned bear different dates in the Town and Proprietors' Records. I have se- lected the earliest in each case. In a very few instances, individuals never took possession of the lands granted, or did not reside in Hing- ham. Some grants were made to individuals before their arrival in this country. The materials are collected for copious notes on the descendants of the persons herein mentioned, but the limits of this pamphlet do not permit their insertion.
Among the papers of Daniel Cushing, mentioned in the text, is the following list of the early settlers of Hingham. It has never been published.

NOTE D, TO PAGE 16.
A manuscript volume of sermons, preached by Rev. Peter Hobart, is in the possession of Mr. Fearing Burr. On one page of the volume it is stated that "Matthew Hawke of Hingham was the good man that first did characterize these sermons and afterwards took the trouble to write them out in a plain hand for the benefit of his blessed poster- ity." Some of them are upon the text Ecclesiastes xi, 9, 10, Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth, &c. Cotton Mather (Magnalia 1. 451) says of Mr. Hobart, " he preached many pungent sermons, on Eccl. xi, 9, 10, and Eccl. xii, 1." The volume owned by Mr. Burr, un- doubtedly contains the sermons mentioned by Mather. They are plain and "pungent." In Matthew Hawke's Will, made Sept. 24, 1684, he gives to his son James Hawke " one booke of Mr. Hubbard's sermons." The volume above mentioned contains evidence that it was the property of James Hawke. The hand writing is extremely neat and legible. It is a valuable relic of our first Pastor.

NOTE E, TO PAGE 16.
The only specimen of the productions of Mr. Norton was found re- cently on examining files of old papers in the possession of Capt. John Fearing. This is contained in three leaves of Manuscript in the beautiful hand writing of Matthew Hawke. It is entitled " Mr. Nor- ton his exposition upon 19 chap. of John : vers : 1 : 2." "Then Pilate therefore took Jesus and scourged him. And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns and put it on his head" &c.
