LINCOLN.
This surname, variously written Linkhorn, Linklon, Lincon, etc., upon early documents, was a common one in Hingham, Norfolk County, England, for more than a century before our ancestors first came to New England; and the same names which occur here appear quite frequently among the baptisms registered upon the rec- ords of St. Andrew's Church in old Hingham. There can scarcely be a doubt, therefore, but that the surname Lincoln originated in Nor- folk County, England; while it is more than probable, judging from a recent examination of the St. Andrew's Church records, that the place of their abode prior to the seventeenth century, with perhaps one exception, was at old Hingham. Among the earlier settlers of our Hing. were eight persons (males) of mature age bearing this surname, of whom mention is made upon the records of the town. These were, Daniel Lincoln the husbandman, who died unm. 3 Apr. 1644, and his brothers Samuel Lincoln, and Thomas Lincoln the weaver ; Daniel Lincoln, kn. as "the young man," and as "Sergeant " and "boatman ; " Stephen Lincoln, and his bro. Thomas Lincoln the husbandman ; Thomas Lincoln the cooper; and Thomas Lincoln the miller.
Thus there were four Thomases, distinguished from each other by their occupations, as cooper, husbandman, miller, and weaver; two

Daniels ; Samuel; and Stephen. Brief notices of these (with the exception of Daniel, who d. unm. in 1644) and of their descendants who lived in Hing. are given on the succeeding pages.
SERGEANT DANIEL LINCOLN.
1. DANIEL, kn. as "the Sergeant," and also as "boatman," as " sea- man," and as "the senior Daniel Lincoln," was a resident of Hing. as. early as 1644-45, when he and three other young men were permitted to set up a gallery in the first meeting-house. He prob. was a s. of Daniel Lincoln of Hingham, Eng., and bt. at St. Andrew's Church in that parish 28 March, 1619. That he was related to some of the Lincoln families who came from Norfolk Co., Eng., to our Hing. seems more than probable; but whether nearly or remotely is not clear. The christian name of his wife was Susanna. She outlived him, and d. 20 Feb. 1703-4. He d. 19 March, 1698-99, æt. 80th yr. His will, dated the 16th of Sept. 1692, was proved the 18th of May, 1699.
