2. Researchers have frequently identified John Lothropp's second wife as Anne, daughter of William Hammond of Watertown. This would seem to be supported by a passage in church records of Scituate personally written down by Rev. Lothropp: 33. Elizabeth Hammon my Sister having a dismission from the church at Watertowne was joyned, April 14, 1636. Of course, this usage merely reflects common seventeenth century customs that did not differentiate forms of address between between sister and sister-in-law and has been interpreted to imply that Elizabeth was the sister of Anne Lothropp. However, instead of this relationship, Elizabeth Hammond's husband can be identified as Samuel Howse the brother of Lothropp's first wife, Hannah, and, hence, also John's sister-in-law. (Samuel and Elizabeth seem to have married about this time or shortly before, which, is consistent with her joining the church at Scituate and also, perhaps, accounts for Rev. Lothropp's use of her maiden name.) In particular, affirmation of a putative marriage between John Lothropp and widow Anne Hammond on February 17, 1636 (1637 N. S.) was advanced by Mr. Otis in his history and repeated in Dr. Roland Hammonds "Hammond Genealogy: of 1894. Even so, later researchers including Donald Line Jacobus among others, considered the evidence unconvincing.
¶ Indeed, a later Hammond genealogy shows Anne, daughter of William Hammond, to have married (1) Timothy Hawkins of Watertown who died in 1650 or 1651 and (2) Ellis Barron of Watertown. Moreover, consistent with usual variation in the rendering of names characteristic of early colonial records, Barron was frequently written Barnes, which, therefore, rather convincingly supports her identity as the daughter Barnes, a widow with children, mentioned in the will of William Hammond made on July 1, 1662. (Likewise, in the will, bequests were made to four children of my daughter, Elizabeth House, deceased.) In any case, there is no mention of an Anne Lothropp in William Hammond's will, and, clearly, Anne who married John Lothropp was still living at that time and, as such, should have been included if she were, in fact, the testator's daughter.
¶ Alternatively, John Lothropp himself recorded that his wife joined the Scituate church on June 14, 1635, which clearly conflicts with Otis presumption. Moreover, on August 7, 1650, Rev. John Lothropp recorded that "a day of humiliation was declared in Barnstable church for the investing of my brother Dimmicke in to the office of an Elder in reference to Thomas Dimmock, who is believed to have immigrated on the ship, Hopewell, in 1635, first settled in Dorchester, and later removed to Barnstable about 1639."
¶ Since John Lothropp is not known to have had any siblings living in New England, this would clearly seem to imply that Thomas Dimmock was his brother-in-law, i.e., the brother of his wife, Anne. Indeed, Jacobus and others have argued in favor of this conclusion. Likewise, Wakefield, in his Additions and Corrections to Torrey's Marriages, identifies her as Anne Dimmock.
¶ In any case, Rev. John Lothropp and his second wife, Anne, had at least four surviving children, viz., Barnabas, John, Abigail, and Bathshua. In addition, Savage also indicates two more (believed to be a daughter and son) that died shortly after birth.
¶ In his will made on August 10, 1653, John Lothropp made bequests "To my wife, my new dwelling house ... to the rest of my Children both mine and my wives my will is that every of them shall have a Cow". This clearly implies that this wife survived him, and that she may have been previously married. (unpublished notes)
