William Howard

• Birth: Circa 1635 - Ipswich, Essex, MA
• Death: July 25 1709 - Ipswich, Essex, MA
• Father: William Howard (perhaps) or Thomas Hayward of Ipswich
• Wife: Tabitha Kinsman
• Children: William Howard, John Howard, Tabitha Hodgkins (born Howard), Martha Perkins (born Howard), Mercy Hovey (born Howard), Mary Fuller (born Howard), Samuel Howard

Tabitha Kinsman was born circa 1645 in Ipswich, Massachusetts, the daughter of Robert Kinsman, and named in his 1664 will.

In 1667 in Salem, Massachusetts, America, Tabitha Kinsman married William Howard, son of William Howard.

William had the following children, all born in Ipswich:

1. Mary, b. December 1667,[5][6] m. October 17, 1685 Joseph Fuller Jr of Ipswich[7]
2. Tabitha, b. January, 21, 1669/70,[8][6] m. January 29, 1689/90 Christopher Hodkins of Ipswich,[7] d. September 15, 1735 in Ipswich[7]
3. William, b. June 25, 1673[5][6]
4. Mercy, b. October 8, 1675,[5][6] m. Daniel Hovey, Jr of Ipswich[7]
5. Martha, b. March 31, 1678,[5][6] never married,[7] d. June 23, 1748 in Ipswich[7]
6. John,* b. about 1683[6]
7. Samuel, b. October 3, 1685[5][6]

Since there is no birth record for John, it is possible that he was the illegitimate son of William's unwed sister Hannah, who, based on Essex County Court records in 1677-1679, had a child by John Hunkins in 1677 whom William was caring for.
