He also deeded to his sons Robert and Christopher, lands in Dartmouth, Mass., both of whom erected homesteads upon their estates. Robert continued to live in Dartmouth while Christopher moved later to Little Compton, R. I. Both have many descendants now living in southern Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

- 1--WILLIAM.
- Sandwich, Mass.
- It is claimed by some that he was son of Walter Gifford and that the latter was son of Sir Ambrose Gifford of England, and the statement is further made that Walter emigrated to Massachusetts in 1630. It need better proof, however, than any of which the author have knowledge to substantiate these claims.
- He was early a proprietor of lands at Sandwich, and early joined the Quakers; being fined a number of times for not taking the oath of fidelity, and for "seditious utterances" against the King.
- 1650, 6, 4. He was on Grand Inquest at this date.
- 1651, 5, 22. He and three other were granted authority to call town meeting, at three days notice; and it was voted, "that what neighbors stay away above an hour, after the time appointed, shall lose their votes in what is done before they come."
- 1658. In a list of those who owned lands at Sandwich, and had bounds recorded. Fined this year L10.
- 1658, '59. In these years there was a distraint upon his estate of L57, 10s. to satisfy fines imposed for his heterodoxy, as viewed by the authorities, viz., refusing to take oath, attending Quaker meetings, etc. The property taken to pay his fines consisted of 4 steers, 2 heifers, 1 bull, 3 cows, 5 young cattle and 1/2 of a horse and 1/2 swine.
- 1675, 4, 23. he was in a list of those having just rights and privilege in town of Sandwich.
- 1677. Surveyor. He was a large landholder at Dartmouth, and Falmouth, as well as Sandwich.
- 1680 to 1684. Deeded sons Robert and Christopher, nearly 400 acres at Dartmouth.
- 1687, 4, 9. Will, proved 1688, 3, 9. Ex., wife Mary. Overseers, jacob Mott of Rhode Island, Edward Perry, Wm. Allin. To son John 20s. silver money. To son Hananiah 10s. To son William 1 stack of bees. To son Christopher 1 cross cut saw. To son Robert L5 two years after decease, and to daughter 'Mary L5 two years after decease'. To granddaughter Temperance Kirby 20s. and to granchildren John, Robert and Sarah Kirby, 5s. each. To all grandchildren, 1s. each. To daughter 'Mary 1 cow after 4 years'. to two sons Jonathan and James 10 acres at Falmouth, and 1/4 of a share belonging to me in undivided land at Succonessett (Falmouth). To the Friends in Sandwich called Quakers, L5.
- 1687, 12, 21. Inventory appraised by John Nye and William Bassett.
- One of the most active officers in arresting Quarkers for tumultuous carriage at Quaker meeting, refusing to take oaths, harboring "strange Quakers," etc., etc., was Marshal Barlow. At one time (1659, 10, 6) this Marshall made complaint against William Gifford "for affronting him in the highway near a bridge over which he should have driven some cattle; yet forasmuch as William Gifford affirmeth that he was not directly in his way but in an old path leading to his house, the Court suspends the judgement for the present until the place be viewed and so the matter be made more evident." It seemed to require but slight pretext in those times to warrant the arrest of a Quaker; but sometimes the pretext was so very slight that even the all too willing Judges had to suspend sentence, or release the prisoner with an admonition.
