(For preceding generations see Gowen Wilson I.) (III) William Wilson, son of WILSON Joseph Wilson, was born Au- gust 28, 1686, at Kittery, Maine. He settled and always lived on or near the estate on the west side of Spruce Creek. He bought land of William Lewis, December 29, 1709, a fifty-acre grant of date May 10, 1703. He bought of the other heirs their rights, and became the owner of his father's and grandfather's homestead, besides other land in the vicinity. He married, April 25, 17II, Hopewell (Furbish) Hutchings, widow of Enoch Hutchins Jr., whom she mar- ried May 13, 1693. Her first husband died April 3, 1706. She was taken captive by the Indians during one of their raids, and carried to Canada in 1705. There were two Enoch Hutchins-father and son-killed by the In- dians, both living near the head of the East- ern Creek. The father was killed in 1698, and the son in April, 1706, as stated, a year after his wife and children were captured. A child of Enoch was slain. A tradition tells the story of the wooden shoe. Mrs. Hutchins and one son, a boy of ten or twelve years, were carried off after the savages had brutally killed her youngest child before her eyes and had killed or fatally wounded her husband. . (This ac- count does not correspond with the date of his death.) The boy was barefoot, and the jour- ney through the woods injured his feet, so his captors gave him a pair of wooden shoes to wear, but the shoes pinched him, and in his exasperation he seized a tomahawk and with a single blow split one of them from his feet. The adroitness with which he dealt the blow without touching his foot with the weapon, so pleased his captors that they finally released him and his mother. The boy kept the mate to the broken shoe, and it has been handed down to posterity, better preserved perhaps than the story that goes with it. Mrs. Hutchins gave birth to a child while in captivity at Spriel, Canada. The children of Enoch and Hope- well Hutchins: i. William, born August I, 1694; ii. Thomas, September 20, 1696; iii.

CARVER It is said that the name Carver is derived from the occupation of wood carver, and some of the work in cathedrals of East Anglia was done by skilled carvers of this family. The names Adam le Karver and Richard le Kerver are found on the Hundred Rolls, and some bear- ing the name Carver at later date were settled in various parts of England. John Carver, first governor of Plymouth Colony, was "sonne of James Carver, Lincolnshire, yeo- man," and it has been the commonly accepted tradition that Robert Carver, the emigrant, was his brother, which tradition was supposed to have been established as fact by the historian of Marshfield, Massachusetts, who received the information from a Carver descendant, whose grandfather had lived twenty-one years with his grandfather Robert, the emigrant, But it is now known that Robert was a son of Isaac, a brother of Governor Carver, and con- sequently the Governor's nephew.

(I) Robert, American ancestor, son of Isaac Carver, was born in Boston, Lincolnshire, England, in 1594. He is recorded as "a planter," of Marshfield, Massachusetts, where he received a land grant of twenty acres at Green Harbor, and also a "garden place" at Stony Brook, Duxbury. The old homestead in South Marshfield is still held in the Carver name. He was made freeman January 7, 1648, and was chosen juryman and town officer. He was also called "a sawyer." The surname of his wife Christian is not learned, but they were probably married in England or Holland. His father, Isaac Carver, died in Leyden. Robert lived to be eighty-six years of age, and was buried April, 1680. The historian of Marsh- field states that he survived his wife Christian twenty-two years.

(II) John, son of Robert and Christian Carver, was born about 1637, probably in Dux- bury, and made his home in that town, where
