History of New Ipswich
CUMMINGS.
ISAAC1 CUMMINGS, b. 1601; d. May, 1677. He is believed to have come from England in 1627, and to have settled in Salem, Mass., where, however, he did not permanently reside. He was a proprietor of Water- town, where he had a grant of land in 1636. He had a house lot in Ipswich Village, where he was a "commoner" in 1641. In 1652 he was in Topsfield, where his later years were passed. He was moderator there in 1676, and a deacon for many years. His wife is not known.
JOHN2 (Isaac1), b. 1630; d. Dec. 1, 1700; m. Sarah, dau. of Thomas and Alice (French) Howlett of Ipswich [d. Dec. 7, 1700]. He succeeded to his father's land, but he had removed to Boxford about 1657, and about 1680 to Dunstable, where he was one of the first settlers and a selectman.
JOHN3 (John2, Isaac1), b. Boxford, 1657; m. Sept. 13, 1680, Elizabeth, dau. of Samuel and Hannah (Brackett) Kinsley [b. Braintree, Nov. 22, 1657; d. July 3, 1706]. He lived in that part of Dunstable which is now Nashua, N. H., where his wife was killed by the Indians, and he was wounded at the same time.
JOHN4 (John3, John2, Isaac1), b. July 7, 1682; d. Apr. 27, 1759; m. Oct. 2, 1705, Elizabeth, dau. of Peletiah3 (Thomas2, Henry1) and Ruth Adams of Chelmsford [b. Apr. 26, 1680; d. Apr. 30, 1759]. He resided in that part of Chelmsford which is now Westford and his farm, in part still occupied by a descendant, included the land around the present railroad station. He was a selectman and town clerk and was the first deacon chosen by the church.
WILLIAM4 (John3, John2, Isaac1), b. Apr. 24, 1702; d. Aug. 29, 1757; m. Sarah, dau. of William and Esther Harwood [b. Dunstable, June 26, 1706; d. 1769]. He settled on the east bank of the Merrimac river in that part of Dunstable which is now Hudson, N. H. He was a member of both of the expeditions of Capt. Lovewell against the Indians in 1725, but a severe lameness compelled him to return before the disastrous issue of the second one.
JOHN5 (John4, John3, John2, Isaac1), b. June 1, 1710; d. Sept. 20, 1789; m. Jan. 28, 1736, Sarah, dau. of Eleazer and Mary Lawrence of Littleton, Mass. [b. about 1716; d. Oct. 3, 1799]. He settled in Groton, Mass., and there passed most of his active life, but in his later years removed to Hancock, N. H., where he died. He served in the French and Indian and the Revolutionary wars, and bore the title of lieutenant.
1. SAMUEL5 (John4, John3, John2, Isaac1), b. Sept. 18, 1718; d. June 9, 1796; m. Dec. 1, 1741, Sarah, dau. of Dea. Andrew3 and Abigail Spaulding [b. June 9, 1723; d. Nov. 23, 1801]. He was a farmer in Westford, where most if not all of his children were born, and he perhaps lived for a time in Dunsta- ble, but his name appears on the New Ipswich records in 1772 and remains for thirteen years. He removed to Cornish, N. H., and there passed the later years of his life. Soon after his arrival in New Ipswich he bought the Zachariah Adams
