John DARBY (DERBY) was born on 8 Oct 1681 in Marblehead, Essex, MA. He died on 7 Mar 1753. He has reference number 8QW2-0T. Parents: John DARBY and Alice.
John Darby, son of John and Alice Darby, was born in Marblehead, Massachusetts on October 8, 1681. When John was only nine years old, his father abandoned his family, joined a pirate's crew, and was killed by the milita soon after. John grew to manhood in Marblehead became a weaver by trade. About 1703, he married Deborah Conant, who was born in Beverly on February 20, 1688, the daughter of John Conant and Bethia Mansfield. John and Deborah settled first in Beverly, where most of their children were born. In about 1720, they moved to Ipswich, and from there to Concord, where John died on March 7, 1753. His name was spelled Darbie in his will, which was dated in 1747. Deborah died in Concord on April 13, 1763. She was a descendant of Roger Conant, the original governor of Cape Ann & Salem. There certainly was a new social structure being erected in New England, when the son of a pirate could marry the granddaughter of the governor.
