- MAYO
- The surname Mayo may be identical with Mayhew, a name distinguished by Rev. Thomas Mayhew, the noble preacher to the Indians at Martha's Vineyard, son of Thomas Mayhew, of Watertown, Massachusetts, but some authorities believe that the names are distinct and the immigrants not related, stating that Mayo is distinctively an Irish name.
- (1) Rev. John Mayo, immigrant ancestor of this family, was born in England, educated there, and was presumably a college graduate. He came to New England in 1638 or 1639, and in the latter year became teacher in Mr. Lothrop's church at Barnstable, Plymouth colony. He was admitted a freeman March 3, 1639-40, by the general court at Plymouth. About 1644 he removed to Nauset, or Nawset, later Eastham, Massachusetts, upon the gathering of a church at that place, and became the minister. There is no account of his connection with the church at Nauset in existing town or church records. Among tte list of men able to bear arms in 1643 in Plymouth county, we find the names of Mr. Mayo and his sons Samuel and Nathaniel, all of Barnstable, however. Samuel Mayo and his father were of the forty-five original settlers of Barnstable. Mr. Mayo remained at Eastham until 1655, when he was called to Boston to become pastor of the Second Church, and ordained there November 9, 1655. He preached the election sermon before the general court in June, 1658. There is little known of Mr. Mayo's pastorate excepting what is contained in the church records in the handwriting of Rev. Increase Mather, who succeeded him in the ministry: "In the beginning of the year 1670, Mr. Mayo, the pastor, grew very infirm, insomuch as the congregation were unable to hear and be edified, wherefore the brethren (the pastor manifesting his concurrence) desired the teacher to take care for a supply of the congregation that the worshipful God may be upheld amongst us, which was for the present by him consented to, as Christ should enable him." "In the 15th of the 2d. month (April) 1673, Mr. Mayo removed his person and goods also from Boston, to reside with his daughter in Barnstable where (and at Yarmouth) since he hath lived a private life, not being able through the infirmities of old age to do the work of the ministry."
- He died at Yarmouth, May 3, 1676, and was buried at Barnstable. His widow Tamsen died February 3, 1682. While living in Boston, Mr. Mayo owned a house lot and house on Middle (now Hanover) street, thirty-eight by one hundred twenty feet, selling it in 1672 for 210 pounds to Abraham Gording. A horse belonging to him was killed in the expedition against King Philip at Mount Hope, in 1675. He must have been born as early as 1590, for his son Samuel at least was of age in 1640. A committee was appointed by the court to settle his estate upon his wife and children, June 7, 1676. The inventory was presented by his widow Thamasin, not including goods she brought at marriage. The division of the estate was agreed upon between the widow, the son John, Samuel, Hannah and Bathsheba, children of son Nathaniel, deceased; Joseph Howes; daughter Hannah Bacon.
- Children, all born in England: 1. Samuel, mentioned below. 2. Hannah, married December 4, 1642, Nathaniel Bacon. 3. Elizabeth, married Joseph Howes, and died in 1701. 4. John, married, January 1, 1651, Hannah Reycroft, of Lecroft; had eight sons, of whom Daniel lived at Wellfleet; children, born at Eastham: i. John, December 15, 1652; ii. William, October 7, 1654; iii. James, October 3, 1656; many descendants at Eastham; iv. Samuel, August 2, 1658; v. Elisha, November 7, 1661 ; vi. Daniel, January 24, 1664; vii. Nathaniel, April 2, 1667; viii. Thomas, June 24, 1670, died young; ix. Thomas, July 15, 1672.

- 5. Nathaniel, married February 13, 1650, Hannah Prence, and he died in 1661 ; children : Samuel, Hannah, Bathsheba.
- (II) Rev. Samuel, son of Rev. John Mayo, was born about 1615, in England. He was ordained a teaching elder (minister) April 15, 1640, at Barnstable, and was associated with his father there. His name does not appear in the settlement of his father's estate, but he probably had sold his interest to one of the other heirs. At any rate he was then living on Long Island, at a great distance. All authorities agree that he was the son of Rev. John. He followed the sea, and became master mariner; bought a large tract of land of the Indians at Oyster Bay, in 1653, and went thither about 1654. Four years or so later he settled in Boston, Massachusetts, where he died in 1663. He married Thomazine (same as Tamsen, etc.) Lumpkin, daughter of William and Thomasine Lumpkin. His wife joined the church at Barnstable, January 20, 1649. His name is one of the list of those able to bear arms in 1643. Children: 1. Mary, born at Barnstable, 1645. 2. Samuel, born at Barnstable, 1647; baptized with Mary, February 3, 1649. 3. Hannah, born at Barnstable, 1650, baptized October 20, 1650. 4. Elizabeth, born at Barnstable, 1653, baptized May 22, 1653. 5. Joseph, born at Oyster Bay, Long Island, 1654-55. 6. John, born 1656-57; mentioned below. 7. Nathaniel, born at Boston, 1658. 8. Sarah, born at Boston, 1660.
- (III) John (2), son of Samuel Mayo, was born in Oyster Bay, Long Island, 1656-57. He settled in Hingham, Massachusetts, and removed later to Harwich, now Brewster, Massachusetts, where he died February 15, 1744. He was elected the first representative to the general court from Harwich after it was incorporated, and served several years afterward. He held many other important offices. A monument was erected on his grave in Brewster, and is still standing. He married, April 14, 1681, Hannah Freeman, born 1665, died February 1, 1756, daughter of Major John and Mercy (Prence) Freeman. Her father was born in England, in 1628, and died at Eastham, October 28, 1719; her mother, Mercy Prence (or Prince), was born at Plymouth, in 1631, died at Eastham, September 28, 1711 ; married, February 13, 1649- 50, Major John Freeman. She was daughter of Governor Thomas Prence, who was born in England, in 1600, and died at Plymouth, March 29, 1673: married, August 5, 1624, Patience Brewster, who was born in England, and died at Plymouth in 1634. daughter of Elder William Brewster, born at Scrooby, England; married Mary __ ; died at Plymouth about April 18, 1643, one of the most distinguished Pilgrims who came in the "Mayflower" in 1620. All the descendants of this generation of the Mayo family are entitled to be classed as Mayflower descendants. Children of John and Hannah (Freeman) Mayo: 1. Hannah, born January 8, 1682. 2. John, 1683. 3. Samuel, July 16, 1684; mentioned below. 4. Mercy, 1688. 5. Rebecca, 1690. 6. Mary, 1694. 7. Joseph, 1696. 8. Elizabeth, 1706.
- (IV) Samuel (2), son of John (2) Mayo, was born in Harwich, July 16, 1684. He lived in the easterly part of Harwich, now the southerly part of Orleans, near which many of his descendants now reside. He married (first) Abigail Sparrow, (second) Mercy Snow. Children, all born at Harwich, by first wife (mentioned in will dated April 16, 1759) : 1. Thomas, mentioned below. 2. Samuel, died young. 3. John, died young. 4. Samuel. 5. Rev.

- Major Freeman's wife Mercy d. Sept. 28, 1711, ae. 80. He d. Oct. 28, 1719, ae. 92. In the graveyard in E. is a head- stone saying, "Here lies the body of Maj. John Freeman who d. Oct. 28, 1719, in the 98th yr. of his age." By the side of this is another, saying, "Here lies buried the body of Mercy Freeman, wife to Maj. John Freeman, who d. Sept. 28, 1711, ae. 80." The age on the first tablet is, we are confident, a mistake, — perhaps the error of the stone-cutter, but in any event an error in computation.
