Lt. Job Winslow

From "Winslow Memorial" by David Parsons Holton and his wife, Frances Forward Holton; publisher, D. P. Holton, vol. I 1877, vol. II 1888, New York

He settled at Swansea about 1666. "At the breaking out of the Indian War, June 1675, his house at Swansey which he had inhabited 8 or 9 years, was burnt by the enemy."

He appears to have been one of the early settlers of Rochester, as he was there about 1680. But he soon moved to Freetown, for in 1686, he was one of the selectmen of that town; Town Clerk and grand juryman in 1690; assessor in 1691, 1701-06, and 1711; moderator of the annual town meeting in 1708 and 1711; deputy of the general court in 1686; representative in 1692, at the 1st general court in MA, under the charter of William and Mary. He was a leading man in all town matters, both civil and religious. He is styled "Lieutenant" and was a shipwright by occupation.

He married Ruth, who survived him. In his will, dated 11/12/1717, he gave a lot now known as Winslow Burying Ground, situated 2 miles S of Assonet Village; he also mentions his wife, Ruth, and all his children, with the exception of Mary, Hope and John.

The dates of the first 6 children are copies from records of Swansea. The dates for James, Mary, George, Jonathan and John from records of Freetown.

• IN the person of Mr. Edward Winslow, the persecuted Puritan of England and the persecuted Huguenot of France unite. On his father's side, Mr. Winslow is a lineal descendant of Kenelm Winslow, brother of Governor Edward Winslow, of the Plymouth Colony, while his mother was of the Huguenot Laniers, of Virginia. He is, therefore, a son of Massachusetts and of Virginia, as well as of New York. Kenelm Winslow, the first American ancestor of this branch of the family, was the third son and fourth child of Edward Winslow, of Droitwitch, Worcestershire, England. Born in 1599, he came to Plymouth in 1629. Although less prominent than his brother, the Governor, Kenelm Winslow was a man of consequence in the Colony. He was a freeman in 1632, and had a grant of valuable lands, removed to Marshfield, Mass., where he was a planter and a shipowner, was a representative to the General Court 1642-46 and 1649-53, and died in 1672 at the age of seventy-three years. His wife was the widow, Eleanor Adams. His son, Lieutenant Job Winslow, who was born in 1641 and died in 1720, was a representative to the General Court and held other offices. Joseph Winslow, son of Lieutenant Job Winslow, married Mary Tisdale, of Taunton, Mass., in 1686. She was the daughter of Joseph and Mary (Leonard) Tisdale, of Taunton, and granddaughter of John and Sarah (Walker) Tisdale, of Duxbury. Their son, Job Winslow, who was born in 1718, was the father of Captain Job Winslow, who was born in Dighton, Mass., in 1738. Captain Job Winslow carried the family name to Connecticut, where he owned a shipyard in Saybrook for many years. Later in life he removed to Canaan, N. Y., and died there in 1809. He was twice married. His first wife was Temperance Hayden, of Saybrook. She died in 1777, and he afterwards married Mary Rogers.

  • JOB WINSLOW'S WIFE.
  • By Richard Henry Greene.
• Kenelme Winslow followed his brother, Gov. Edward Winslow, of the Mayflower pilgrims, to Plymouth, Mass., in 1629, coming, as is generally believed, on the second trip, with Winthrop's fleet, when thirty-five of the Leyden church came to join the pilgrims in New England.
• Gov. Bradford in a letter to Mr. Shirley, dated May 25, 1629, says: "Here are now many of your and our friends from Leyden coming over. . . . With them we have also sent some servants in ye ship called the Talbut, that wente hence latly; but these came in ye Mayflower."
• This, I think, proves that Kenelme Winslow and Josiah Winslow came in the same vessel in which their brothers Edward and Gilbert Winslow came on her first voyage in 1620.
• Kenelme married after his arrival here, in June, 1634, Eleanor or Ellen, widow of John Adams, believed to be Eleanor Newton, who came on the Anne in 1623 (New Eng. Hist. Gen. Register, 33, p. 410). Kenelme had four children: Kenelme, Eleanor, Nathaniel and Job, the youngest who was born about 1641, probably at Marshfield, where his father had moved from Plymouth.

• He was one of the proprietors who purchased "Ye freemans lands at Taunton River" from the chief Wamsutta, April 2, 1659, called Assonet, later Freetown, where he never settled, but his son Job resided, coming from Swansea, where his house was attacked by Philip's men, July 18 or 19, 1675. He was there since about 1666. Job married about 1673 or Jan. 1674, Ruth —— . Here is the matter we are attempting to clear up.
• Davis, in his Landmarks of Plymouth, says: Job married Ruth, daughter of Daniel Cole, of Eastham (page 290).
• In the Descendants of Elisha Cole, by Jos. O. Curtis, N. Y., 1909, we find: Daniel Cole married Ruth Chester and had:
  • John, b. July 15, 1644; m. Ruth, probably daughter of Joseph Snow.
  • Timothy, b. Sept. 15, 1646.
  • Hepsibah, b. April 16, 1649; m. (1) Geo. Crisp; (2) Danl. Doane.

John Cole, eldest son of Daniel, who m. Ruth, dau. of Nicholas Snow, Dec. 12, 1666, and had a dau. Ruth, b. March 11, 1668; m. William Twining, whose third child was Ruth Cole, b. August 27, 1699; also Hugh and Mary (Foxwell) Cole, had dau. Ruth, b. Jan. 8, 1666.
• The Genealogy oj James Cole of Plymouth, by E. B. Cole, Grafton Press, informs us that James Cole, m. 1624, Mary Lobel, b. London, and had: James, b. England 1624, and Hugh, b. 1627, in London probably. He came to New England in 1632 and Plymouth in 1633. This Hugh Cole m. Mary Foxwell, dau. of Richard and Ann Shelly; they removed to Barnstable; the first wife died in Swansea; he m. (2) Jan. 1, 1689, Elizabeth, wid. of Jacob Cook, and dau. of Thomas and Ann Lattice, of Plymouth; she d. at Swansea, Oct. 31, 1693; he m. (3) Jan. 30, 1694, Mary, wid.

Hugh Cole lived at Swansea at the same time with Job Winslow.

• On page 10, of Descendants of Elisha Cole, there is the Hopkins family, from which we abbreviate as follows: Stephen Hopkins, b. in England 1585; by his first wife he had two children: Gyles and Constance. Gyles Hopkins, b. about 1608; m. in Yarmouth, Oct. 9, 1639, Catorne, dau. of Gabriel Whelden, and d. at Eastham in 1690; they had among others, Joshua, who m. Mary, dau. of Daniel Cole; "the first of many marriages between the Cole and Hopkins family," according to the author.
• I have been thus careful to show the Cole family, and have tried to show the locations where they lived; also to collect the daughters in that vicinity of the name of Ruth in order to determine who is right in naming the wife of Job Winslow.
• ....
• 4. Ruth Hopkins, daughter of Gyles, b. June, 1653, three years after Bradford wrote. I find no account of her death, and no report of her marriage.
• And though I find no record of established proof of her marriage, I see no reason or proof to the contrary. Job Winslow, we know, married a Ruth. Can any one say her last name was not Hopkins?
