About Oseah Wing
Oseah Dillingham married Stephen Wing, son of John Wing and Deborah Bachiler ( b1621, and died 1710 in Sandwich, Mass) on 1646 in Sandwich, MA, as his first wife. He married (2) Sarah Briggs on January 1653/54 in Sandwich, Plymouth, Mass.
Children of Stephen Wing and Oseah Dillingham are:
1. Nathaniel Wing, b. 1646.
2. Deborah Wing, b. 1647.
3. Ephriam Wing, b. 1649.
4. Mercy Wing, b. 1650.
About Oseah and Stephen Wing:
Stephen was known as the "scholar and man of affairs" according to George Wing, family historian. He became a Quaker and was fined heavily for his beliefs.
He and Osheah were fined by the Plymouth Court because their first child was born at "an unseemly time after their marriage."
Stephen bought the Old Fort House near Spring Hill in Sandwich. Although it was originally built as protection of the Colonists from Indians, they soon learned that the Cape Indians were peaceable and friendly and the fort was not necessary. In Swift's book "History of Barnstable Families," he writes, "The Wing House probably the oldest house in Massachusetts, built before 1643 as a fortification, has been altered so often that little of the original remains." Like most old Cape houses, the walls are shingled.
The original fort is now the parlor, a room 15x18 feet, with the original oaken rafters overhead. A great fireplace occupies most on one side of the room. The building is built at the foot of a hill, just across the old road leading to Spring Hill Meeting House, a half mile away, where many of the original Wing family is buried beneath unmarked stones.
Behind the house are salt marshes stretching away to Cape Cod, partially covered at high tide. A five-minute walk reaches the water.
The Old Fort House has been owned by a Wing family members ever since Stephen bought it, and is now the property of the Wing Family of America.
A monument nearby reads: "Stephen Wing ... built this house in 1641. He was a member of the Friends Meeting in America, established at Spring Hill in 1658, and suffered a great persecution at the hands of the Plymouth Government in the cause of Religious Liberty. He died in 1719 and is buried at Spring Hill."
Stephen Wing was appointed Constable of Sandwich by the Plymouth Court on Jan. 8, 1655. Nevertheless, in October 1658, he was, with eight others, denied the "Privileges of towns men" for being a Quaker, and declared to have "no power to act in town meeting until better evidence appeared of their legal admittance."
When Stephen Wing died, he was probably one of the last of the original settlers of Sandwich to survive. He lived 63 years there after the date of the first settlement in 1637.
