Clement Coldham, Sr. was born in 1623 in Lynn, Essex, MA and died Dec. 18, 1703 in Gloucester, Essex, MA. Gentleman. Tavern Keeper. Lived in 1623 in England; in 1630 in Lynn, MA; in 1650 Gloucester, MA. In 1651: Bought a house and lot at Gloucester. Lived east side on Mill River, toward Goose Cove. Clement Coldham was a farmer in Goose Cove, a Gloucester militiaman, and a Congregationalist. He had been a member of the militia since 1645, but for rather vague personal reasons, his company suddenly stripped him of his rank of ensign in 1666.
Christine Heyrman believes this might have been due to the marriage of Clement's daughter, Elizabeth, to Francis Norwood three years earlier. "Coldham's fall from grace could have been brought about by his new son-in-law, Francis Norwood, Sr. Norwood had come to New England after (sic) the restoration of the Stuart monarchy made England an inhospitable environment for someone with his radical religious and political convictions. He first kept a tavern in Lynn, a center of early Baptist and Quaker enthusiasm, but after a few years, he settled in Gloucester at Goose Cove amidst the Quaker Pearces and Hammonds and the Congregationalist Coldoms. In 1663 he married Clement Coldham's daughter" (Heyrman, 1984).
