Born ca 1620. Was granted citizenship to Blomberg, Lippe, Germany in 1644. [207], [51] Johann died in 1685-1687; he was 65. [136] based on daughters' confirmation records. Occupation: Rathverwanter. [136]1644 Bürger [56]
Occ. noted in confirmation of Anna Dorothea (Maria); also, deceased (weiland) [136]
The deaths of two children of Johan Weber are recorded on 18 March 1667 (ein Kind) and in May 1679 (Tochter begraben den 23 Maÿ). [136] Since confirmation records for neither Henrich Arendt nor Trina were found, these deaths could be theirs (however, see note below re Trina). Another possibility is that his daughter Anna Ilsabein, confirmed in 1672, died in 1679, but there is no third death record of a child before 1679, by which time Trina should have been confirmed.
Added July 2, 2002: The Blomberg Housebook lists Cath. Marg. Weber, died Dec. 29, 1736, aged 73, and married to Herm. Bernd Bohnhausen before 1690. If Trina (or Catherina) Margretha didn't die in 1679, it must have been the other daughter, Anna Ilsabein, who died then. This still leaves the confirmation record for Trina missing. Also, the death date given for Catherina Margretha in the Blomberg House Book (pg. 111) is from a church book death record for "Anne Christine Weber," whose age roughly corresponds with Catherina's. No other mention of an "Anne Christine" has been seen previously. [208]

577 Trine Unknown.
Born ca 1613. Trine died on Feb 23, 1679; she was 66. [83] age 65 years.640 Stephen Gates. [25]
Born in 1597. [211] Stephen was baptized in Coney Weston, Suffolk, England on Dec 26, 1597. [211] Stephen died in Cambridge, MA in 1662; he was 65. Occupation: Farmer, Constable. [212]Came from Hingham, England in 1638 aboard the ship "Diligent" (master - John Martin) with wife and two children.
From "History of the Town of Hingham, Mass." vol.II, 1893:
Stephen Gates left Hingham in 1652 and went to Cambridge; the following year he went to Lancaster. He was a freeman (church member) in 1656 and a constable in 1657.
NEHGR v120, p161, 1966:
Stephen Gates, immigrant ancestor of one branch of the Gates family in America, came from Hingham, England, with his wife and children in the year 1638. They sailed in the Diligent of Ipswich, John Martin, master. According to Daniel Cushing's records, which seem to be accurate, he brought two children with him (NEHGR v15, p26-27, 1861). In regard to the Gates family, Cushing appears to have made an erroneous statement. Stephen's children Elizabeth, Stephen, and Mary were all born before 1638. It is unlikely that one of these young children should have been left in England and come at a later date.
Stephen Gates and Ann Veare were married in Hingham, England, 5 May 1628 (The American Genealogist, v10, p199, Apr. 1934). She deposed in Middlesex County, MA, Court, 12 June 1673, aged about seventy years, from which it appears that she was born in or about 1603. It is believed that Stephen Gates was born probably in or near Norwich, Co. Norfolk, England, about 1600.
He settled in Hingham, MA, where he received a grant of three acres for a house lot, twelve acres for a "greate Lott," and three acre planting lot. His house lot was on Town (now North) Street and was bounded on the north by the street, on the east by William Buckland's land and upon the west by the town swamp. In 1647 he received a grant of half an acre of salt marsh. On 26 June 1648 he sold his house lot, etc., to William Hersey, but remained in town for some time before his removal.
Stephen Gates and his wife probably did not become members of the Hingham church until about 3 May 1646, when their children Simon, Thomas, Isaac, and Rebecca were baptized. Birth dates of the children are not found in the Hingham town records.
If Stephen Gates was in Cambridge, MA in 1652, as stated by some writers, he did not remain there long, since he was one of the early settlers of Lancaster, MA, where he subscribed to town orders 3 April 1654.
While living in Lancaser he was admitted freeman 14 May 1656. He was elected constable, at that time a responsible and honorable position. In 1657 he failed to notify the voters about a town meeting. In consequence, he was fined ten pounds, but the fine was remitted when he informed the court that his failure was due to sickness.
In 1658 there was trouble between the Gates and Whitcomb families due to the fact that three sons of John Whitcomb had killed three swine belonging to Stephen Gates. Whitcomb agreed to pay for the swine, but afterward sought to be released from paying, claiming that he was "aged & weak and mean in estate." The court decided that he must pay for the swine. See Henry S. Nourse, THE EARLY RECORDS OF LANCASTER (1884), p. 63, for particulars concerning this case.
It is stated that Stephen Gates was deprived of his constable's staff. This probably occurred after his failure to notify the voters about the meeting, to which reference has been made. At the time of
the Gates-Whitcomb trouble Stephen Gates was living in Sudbury, Mass.
He next appeared in Cambridge, where he made his will, 9 June 1662, and died before 29 Sept. 1662, when the inventory of his estate was taken.
In the report of the Cambridge committee for seating the meeting house, 19 Jan. 1662/63, it was provided that "Goodie Gates" should be seated "at ye end of ye Deacons seats." This record refers to Stephen's widow.
She married secondly (contract 18 April 1663), as his second wife, Richard Woodward of Watertown, Mass., who died 16 Feb. 1664/5. In her will, dated 18 April 1682, she described herself as of Pompasitacutt (Ponpositicut, now Stow, Mass.). The will was proved 9 April 1683. In it she calls herself "Ann Gates." A footnote states that "my last Husbands name was Woodward but I generally went by ye name of Gates notwithstanding." There are conflicting statements about the date of her death. According to Stow records Anne Woodward died 19 Feb. 1682 [ie. 1682/3]. Marlborough, Mass., records state that Wid. Hannah [!] Gates died 5 Feb. 1682 [ie. 1682/3]. [212]
On May 5, 1628 when Stephen was 31, he married Ann Veare (Hill), in Hingham, Norfolk, England. [211]
They had the following children:
| i. | Elizabeth [25] (~1630-1704) | ||
| ii. | Stephen (2) [25] (~1634-1707) | ||
| iii. | Mary [25] (1636-) | ||
| iv. | Rebecca [25] (ca1640-1650) | ||
| v. | Thomas (2) [25] (1642-?) | ||
| 320 | vi. | Simon (1645-<1693) | |
| vii. | Isaac [25] (ca1647-1651) |
641 Ann Veare (Hill).
Born ca 1603. Ann died in Stow, MA on 5 Feb 1682/1683; she was 79.Surname of "Hill" according to the "Chute Genealogy" by William Edward Chute
Alternate surname of "Veare", according to "The New England Historical and Genealogical Register" vol. 107, p. 306, October, 1953.

647 Agnes Bent. [145]
Born on Dec 12, 1631 in Wayhill, Penton Grafton, Co. Southampshire, England. [183] Agnes died in Marlborough, MA on Jun 4, 1713; she was 81. [183]The History of Marlborough says Agnes died without children, [145] as does Barry's History of Framingham (?), according to the Edmund Rice web site. [183] The web site says this is apparently in error, and that she is the mother of Edmund Rice's children. However, the online Sudbury Vital Records list Ann or Anne as the mother. Abigail and Benjamin, born in Marlborough, have "Annah" listed as their mother. [114]
From the Edmund Rice Association website:
Barry's History of Framingham states Agnes Bent was without issue, which is clearly wrong. The will of John Bent of 1672 makes provision specifically for his daughter Agnes Rice and her son John Rice, which not only shows she was still living at that time, but also proves she was indeed the wife of Edward Rice (there being only one John Rice available as a grandson of John Bent). The confusion stems from the fact that the birth records of her children and the record of her death all show her name as Ann (a common variant of Agnes in her time). On 1 April 1686 at Sudbury, MA, Edward and Agnes Rice gave to their son Edmund Rice of Sudbury, half of the farm lying within the bounds of Sudbury, "near the spring". (Edward had purchased some of this land from his father Edmund and some of the land from his brother Benjamin. John Rice of Sudbury, a brother of Edmund, had the choice half.) Deed recorded 16 August 1734. [183]
648 John Howe. [145], [193]
Born in England. John died abt 1687 in Marlborough, MA. Occupation: Tavern Keeper.Savage gives death date of 10 July 1678 [229]
"John Howe, of Sudbury, was one of the petitioners in 1657 for the grant which constituted Marlborough, MA.He was the son of John Howe, supposed to be the John Howe, Esq., who came from Warwickshire in England, and who was a descendant of John Howe, himself the son of John of Hodinhull, and connected with the family of Sir Charles Howe of Lancaster, in the reign of Charles I.
"He lived first, perhaps at Watertown, and afterwards at Sudbury. He was admitted freeman in 1640. In 1642 he was a selectman. He came to Marlborough about 1657, and built a cabin a little to the east of the Indian Planting Field, where his descendants lived for many generations. John opened the first public house in the place. About 1670, we find his petition for renewal of his license, and he speaks as though he had been some tine engaged in the business.
"His will, proved in 1689 [cf. Middlesex Co. records] , mentions his wife Mary, sons Samuel, Isaac, Josiah, Thomas, and Eleazer, and daughters Sarah Ward, Mary Wetherby, and John Howe, Jr., a son of John, deceased. His property was inventoried at £511." [230]
