Biography

  • Richard Vore was born about 1600 at or near Crewkerne, county Somerset, England.[1]
  • He "married in England, probably about 1629, Ann _____, who survived him and was made executrix of his will, but did not serve as such, because she died at Windsor 7 December 1683, before the will was proved."[1]
  • Husband: Richard Vore
  • Wife: UNKNOWN Ann
  • Child: Mary Vore
  • Death: 22 NOV 1683, Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut
    • Age: 82-83
  • Note:
    • The records concerning the family of Richard Vore (Voare) are quite meager.
    • He left no sons, consequently there was no one in New England who bore his name after his death, and so family historians have not been much interested in him.
  • "He probably came to New England in the latter part of 1633 or in 1634, and settled first at Dorchester, where he was a member of the Rev. John Warham's church. He did not remain there long, but removed to Connecticut with the first settlers of Windsor in 1635 where he had a house-lot by 1640."[2]
  • "He resided in Windsor, south of the ...little river in the vicinity of the mill;".[2] The Rev. John Warham lived nearby.
  • "He also owned meadow land between the Rivulet and Mill Brook, where the latter empties into the former, called upon the records Vore's Point." Richard gave the Rev. Mr. Warham "liberty to build a little house upon his land joining the north end of his [Vore's] then and now dwelling house for the use of his kinswoman Mary Jones to dwell in during her life, and at her death to give it to the said Richard; and the said Mary Jones being now deceased; this is to testify that I John Warham do hereby alienate assign and set over the said house I builded as aforesaid to Richard Vore of Windsor in the County of Hartford Conn."[2] Dated Dec. 15, 1666.
  • "In his will, Richard Vore named his wife, Ann, sole executrix and provided that she was to have his house, lands, and goods for life, and that at her death the house and home-lot were to go to his youngest daughter Abigail, wife of Timothy Buckland, for her life, and then to her children. It is probable that his other daughters had been portioned at marriage."[2]

===Richard Vore and Ann Harris===

  • Richard Vore was born in Crewkerne, Somerset, England, birthdate unproven but perhaps about 1600.
    • The Randall family website, (a family that shares both Richard Vore and and Captain John Bissell as direct ancestors) observes that because "...Richard Vore was freed from "training, watching and wardeing" in 1660 [on May 17, by the Court] we may conclude that he was 60 years of age or thereabout" in 1660.  
    • He died 22 Nov 1683 in Windsor.
    • His wife was Ann.   
      • Her maiden name may have been Harris, but the best information I have comes from "Bobbie," a reader of this page who advises that Ann's last name was likely Sachias.  
    • They were married in 1630, she was probably born somewhere between 1599 and 1610 in England.  She died in Windsor 7 Dec 1683.  
    • Some web genealogies show his father as Thomas, born 10 Mar 1570 in Crewkerne; his mother as Alice, born in Forland, Somerset; and Thomas' father as John, of Crewkerne, who died there in 1570 at age 20.
    •  Richard and Ann had four daughters, Mary, Sarah, Lydia and Abigail.  
      • Only the last one, Abigail, was born in Windsor.
