THE GILMAN FAMILIES. - FIVE OR SIX BRANCHES.
By the aid of Arthur Gilinan's " Genealogy" (chiefly of the Jolin Gilman family of Exeter), we are enabled to trace most of the San- bornton families of this name further back than any other family in town. The common ancestor is EDWARD' of Caston, Norfolk, Eng., who was there in. to Rose Rysse, June 22, 1550. His will was dated Feb. 5, 1573, devising his mansion-house in Caston to his eldest son, John, and his other estates to five daugliters and three other sons, among whom ROBERT" was baptized at Caston, July 10, 1559. ITis wife Mary was there buried March 9, 1618, and he March 6, 1631. But he had lived at Hingham, Eng , as his son EDWARD3 was there b., probably 1587-8; m. Mary Clark, of (at) Hingham, June 3, 1614,

and became the emigrant ancestor of most who bear his name in the United States. Ile had land granted to him by the Plymouth colony, near Rehoboth, 1641, was at Ipswich, Mass., 1647, but afterwards went farther north with his sons, and d. June 22, 1681. His son, Moses4, was baptized at Hingham, Eng., March 11, 1630 ; m. Eliz- abeth, dau. of William Hersie, Sen. ; was in Exeter with his father, May 10, 1652 ; received grant of land in that part of E. which is now New Market ; was frequently selectinan, and in 1694 was succeeded in that office by his son, Moses, Jr. ; took an active and somewhat leading part in town affairs, and d. in 1702, as his will was proved Aug. 6 of that year. His branch is hence called the " New Market branch " of the Gilmans (as distinguished from the " Exeter" and other brauches), and to this the Sanbornton families mostly belong. The son just alluded to, MosEss, m., 1st, Anne - ; m., 2d, Eliz- abeth -; and d. 1747 ; owned land on the east and west sides of Bloody Brook, Exeter (New Market), and the Fresh meadows, which were commonly called " Moses' meadows."

Her hardships did not end here ; she unrsed her oldest and one other child, during her husband's absence in the war, having no provision much of the time but the milk of one eow and wild pinins or berries. From their second dwelling, corner opposite the late Ransom Chapman's (Site 3, Lot 47, 1st Div.), they were driven by fire.
