About John Pinkham

He was taxed at Dover Neck in 1665. In 1671 he assumed responsibility for taking care of his father and took possession of the family homestead. Soon after, it became necessary to guild a garrison and to carry guns to Church Meeting. On 19 June 1714 he gave 50 acres of land at Cochecho to his son Richard, and on 19 July 1714 gave land to his son James, and sold land to his son Solomon. On 4 July 1716 he gave land to his son Amos, with the stipulation that Amos pay each of his sisters £5. On 8 August 1720 Amos transferred this land with the obligation to his brother Otis. On 16 March 1721/22 John Pinkham gave land to his son Otis.

He thus took possession of the old Pinkham homestead in 1671, just before the time when it became necessary for the Pinkhams to build their strong garrison house as a protection against the In- dians. This was also the critical time when every man must carry his gun with him when he went to meeting. This John Pinkham was first taxed on Dover Neck, N. H., in 1665. John Pinkham to.

On June 19, 1714, John Pinkham gave to his oldest son, Richard Pinkham, fifty acres of land in the Cocheco swamps, lying along the Bellamy Bank Fresh River. On March 16, 1721-'22, he gave land to his son, Otis. On July 4. 1716, he gave "to my beloved son, Amos Pinkham, certain lands, on condition that he pay each of his sisters mentioned five pounds."

Now know ye that I, the above said John Pinkham, for divers causes and good considerations me thereunto moving, and as well for the natural love, good will, and affections, which I do owe and bear my well-beloved son, Amos Pinkham, and for his paying the sum of fifteen pounds money to his sisters in the manner following — that is, to say — 5 pounds to his sister Rose Can- ney (Kenney); and 5 pounds money to his sister, Elizabeth Pinkham, and 5 pounds money to his sister Sarah Pinkham; all to be paid in money, or other good species at money prices to their good satisfaction within two years and one day next after my decease; which I have given and granted unto my aforesaid son, Amos Pinkham; and of these presents do give, grant, bargain, sell, enfeoff, alien, assign, assure, sett over. Deliver and Confirm, unto my aforesaid son, Amos Pinkham, and to his heirs and assigns forever, all that my Messuage, or Teniment, in the which I now dwell, situate on Dover Neck, bounded on the east by the High Street; on the north by the land of Lieutenant Joseph Rolierts, on the west with the Low Street; on the south by a lane lying by William Harford's land; and this land all which said Messuage, or Teniment, lying and living the aforesaid bounds, containing one dwelling house, and four acres of land by estimation more or less, to- gether with the orchard gardens, with free liberties for his barn to stand on the land where it now is until such time as he shall cause to remove it; and all other privileges and appur- tenances to the said Messuage, or Teniment, above granted shall be for and to the whole and sole use, benefit, and behoof, of my aforesaid son, Amos Pinkham, and to his heirs and assigns to have and to hold all and singular the aforegiven and granted premises, and part and parcel thereof unto my afore- said son Amos Pinkham, and to his heirs, executors, admin- istrators, and assigns, forever, from and immediately after my decease, on the considerations above mentioned, free and clear, and fully acquitted and discharged, of and from all former gifts, grants, bargains, sales, leases, wills, entails, judgments, executions, and other encumbrances of what nature or kind soever, whereby my son Amos Pinkham, himself, his heirs, executors, administrators, or assigns, or any or either of them, shall or may anyways be molested, in or excepted out of the above given and granted premises, or any part or par- cel thereof, by any person, or persons, whatsoever, from, by, or under me, my means, or procurement. In witness whereof I have hereunto sett my hand and seal this 19th day of June, Anno Domini, 1715. ‘John Pinkham. ‘Witness: Jno. Tuttle, Job Clements.’

John Pinkham gave to his son, James, July 19, 1714, land. July 19, 1714, John Pinkham sold land to his son, Solomon, as his portion of the estate. Rev. Dr. A. H. Quint of Dover, N. H., says: ‘John Pinkham and Rose Otis, his wife, had at least nine children,’” in Sinnett [1].

Parents, approximate birth year and location, spouse and marriage date [before June 1674], death date [before 1724] and location, and "John called himself a carpenter in most deeds. His wife, his brother, and most of his children became Quakers, however, whether he was part of the friends is not known. Certainly two of his sons stayed with the Puritan Church in Dover" in Hollick [2]
