"Graves" was a common name In England In 1630 and Its origin has been debated but not known for certain. There were many Graves Immigrants to the new world, and at least four settled In the Massachusetts Bay Colony (Kenneth Vance Graves, Samuel Graves: 1630 Settler of Lynn ... and His Descendants (1965). This account deals with the three Essex County Graves, Thomas, Mark and Samuel. K. V. Graves claims that their father was a Samuel Graves, Sr. who came over with his sons, but there Is no evidence to support that. Thomas and Mark were perhaps brothers, but there Is no proof of a relationship to Samuel Graves of Ipswich. Thomas was the eldest of the three, according to depositions given below. Thomas named his sons "Mark, Thomas and Samuel" In that order. Mark named his sons "Abraham, Ebenezer, Mark and Thomas," In that order. Both were husbandmen by occupation. Samuel Graves of Ipswich was a "hatter" or felt-maker by occupation. He named his sons "Samuel & John. The first record found for Thomaa Graves of Lynn was on 16 December 1630, when he bought land from Joseph Farr (see below).
