About William Wilbore, of Little Compton

From "American Ancestors", New England Historic and Genealogical Society, Volume 113, pp 101-102

It is not known when William came to America, but according to the Manor Rolls of Braintree, co Essex, England he bought land in Braintree of Jonas Webb on 30 March 1647, as William Wilbore, son of John. On 2 Jan. 1650 he sold this land to Thomas Rowell and Mary, his wife. According to these transactions William was not married in 1647, for usually in the Manor Rolls the name of the wife is given when a person buys land.
We do not hear of William again until July 1654, when his cousin, Samuel Wilbore, transferred ten acres of land to him in Portsmouth, land that belonged formerly to Thomas Emmons.
William Wilbore's will was made 1 March 1710 and proved in Portsmouth 15 Aug. 1710. His children were never recorded, but are all given in his will. Arnold's "Vital Records of Rhode Island" gives a list of his children in both Little Compton and Tiverton, with the years of birth, but on looking at the original records in Little Compton they are not to be found. They are, however, in Otis Wilbor's transcript of the records in Little Compton and are also given in the same way in a fairly modern book in Tiverton, which gives the year of birth of the children and also his own birth, namely, 1630. This would seem to be the work of Otis Wilbor, who died in 1856, and consequently the births given are only approximate. The original will of William Wilbore is in the hands of Mrs. Edward P. Garland of Wellesley Hills, Mass., a descendant. In signing William always makes a mark or "W" for Wilbore. His lack of education is rather surprising when you consider that his cousin, Samuel, and his three sons could write, and the son, Shadrach, was a beautiful penman. This situation would seem to come from a difference of environment and would be easily explained if we know that John Wilbore of Braintree, who went to the Isle of Old Providence off South America, was William's father, John.
If John Wilbore returned to Braintree in 1641, after the Spaniards conquered Old Providence, and brought with him our William, it would fit in with his buying the land in Braintree in 1647.

It is uncertain whom he married. He had nine children. The record of their births is as follows:

  1. Mary, born in 1654, died 1720, married Joseph Mowry
  2. Joseph, born 1656, died May 4, 1729, married Ann Brownell
  3. John, born 1658
  4. Thomas, born 1659
  5. William, born Dec 1660, died 1738. Married first --- Tallman, married second Joan Biggs
  6. Martha, born 1662/3, married William Sherman
  7. Samuel, born 1664, died 1740, married Mary Potter
  8. Daniel, born 1666, died 1741, married Ann Barney
  9. Joan, born 1668, died 1729, married Nathaniel Potter
  10. Benjamin, born 1670, died 1729, married first Mary Kinnicut and married second Elizabeth Head

There is a record dated May 12, 1681, of the marriage of Thomas Sherman of Marshfield to “Martha, daughter of William Wilbor of Portsmouth, R.I.” Martha must have been nineteen at that date. This only assists in establishing the early history of his family.

William died early in 1710, aged eighty.

According to Little Compton Families, published by the Little Compton Historical Society, the earliest settlers of the Plymouth Colony, seeking to expand their boundaries, discovered a "garden spot" called Sogkonnet, meaning "haunt of the black goose" in the language of the inhabitants, the Sogkonitte tribe of Indians. The land was later called Sakonnet until 1682, when it was incorporated by Plymouth Colony and renamed Little Compton. In 1747, the town, along with Barrington, Bristol, Cumberland, Tiverton, and Warren was ceded by Massachusetts to Rhode Island, and Little Compton became an incorporated town of Rhode Island.


"Possibly the nephew of Samuel Wilbour of Boston and Taunton. Deputy 1678"

This is what is written in our book, but I have found some info that indicates William is the son of Samuel Wilbur. Here is the link to the googlebook.

I am going to include Samuel in our tree as his father, please let me know if any of you find anything that would contradict this.

Curator Note from Hatte Blejer (11/13/2011): I believe that this is the William Wilbore who Samuel Wilbore and Ann Smith raised as their own son. Their William - A SEPARATE PROFILE - died in England. This William was possibly a nephew or cousin. Appears to be a great nephew.

1. Little Compton Families, Benjamin Franklin Wilbour: Cousin of Samuel Wilbore of Boston and descendant of John, Joseph, Nicholas and Maybe Thomas Wilbore, born about 1630 in Braintree, Essex County, England, died in Portsmouth, Newport County, Rhode Island in 1710. He married Martha Unknown. He was called cousin several times in the will of Samuel Wilbore Junior, the son of Samuel Wilbore of Boston, who was born in Braintree, England, the son of Nicholas and Elizabeth Wilbore of Sible Heddingham, Essex County, England, and grandson of Nicholas and Ann Wilbore of Colchester, Essex County, England. He first appeared in the legal records when his cousin Samuel of Boston transferred him a piece of land in Portsmouth, July 10, 1654. He also owned land touching the land of Samuel senior and also of Samuel junior in Portsmouth, on the west road near the coal mines. He lived on the farm which later became the Burrington Anthony farm, on the road that leads to the ferry, bound on the south by Freeborne Street. Besides owning lands in Portsmouth, he bought much land in Little Compton and about 1690 four of his sons settled there-- Samuel, William junior, John and Joseph. He had two other sons, Daniel who settled in Swansea, and Benjamin who settled in Dartsmouth. Samuel owned what is now Oliver H. Wilbor Place, Joseph settled on the place later owned by Walter Bullock on the Long Highway, and son William owned what was afterwards the Ephraim Sisson place near the south shore. In the will of William Wilbore of Portsmouth, recorded there, dated March 1, 1710, he gives as follows: "...To son John Wilbore's two children, John and Mary Records, 30 pounds; to son Daniel Wilbore all land in the first division, great neck in Swansea; to son Samuel 43 pounds which he owes me and then to their children; to son Joseph Wilbore 100 pounds in money; to son John Wilbore 20 pounds in money; to son Benjamin Wilbore the money which is due me from Daniel Wilbore; to daughter Mary Sherman 10 pounds, to daughter Joan 10 pounds; to four sons John, William, Joseph and Samuel, all my lands that I now have in the township of Little Compton equally divided between them..."

1. DATA FOR BIRTH & ANCESTRY OF THIS WILLIAM WILBORE IS CONFLICTING, BUT LIKELY BORN ABOUT 1626 AS SON OF JOHN & JOAN WILBORE OF BRAINTREE, ESSEX, ENGLAND, GRANDSON OF JOSEPH & MARY WILBORE AND GT-GRANDSON OF NICHOLAS & ANN WILBORE

  • "William Wilbore was the son of John Wilbore of Braintree [Esssex, England], grandson of Joseph and Mary Wilbore of Braintree, and great-grandson of Nicholas and Ann Wilbore of Colchester, later of Braintree."
  • "9. JOHN WILBORE (Joseph3, Nicholas2, Thomas1 ?), of Braintree in 1642 and admitted that year to land called Hollis Grove with brothers Nicholas and William, married in Felsted, co. Essex, 6 Aug. 1616, JOAN DRAKE. They were the parents of William Wilbore of Portsmouth, R. I."
  • "12. WILLIAM WILBORE (John4, Joseph3, Nicholas2, Thomas1 ?), of Braintree, co. Essex, England, and Portsmouth, R. I., married either in England or America, MARTHA________.
  • "It is not known when William came to America, but according to the Manor Rolls of Braintree he bought land in Braintree of John Webb on 30 March 1647, as William Wilbore, son of John. On 2 Jan. 1650 he sold this land to Thomas Rowell and Mary his wife.

This situation would seem to come from a difference of environment and would be easily explained if we know that John Wilbore of Braintree, who went to the Isle of Old Providence off South America, was William's father, John.

(2) If this William Wilbore bought land in 1647, he must have been born before 1630 or he would have only been 17 at the time of the purchase of the land. Apparently the estimated date of 1630 was first claimed in a work by Otis Wilbore, who died in 1856 and who would not have been aware of the 1647 & 1650 land transactions in Braintree, England. It is possible that William Wilbore went to the Isle of Old Providence off the coast of South America with his father John, who, in 1631, signed his name to an agreement with several other Braintree men to join that settlement. The Spaniards drove the English from that settlement in 1641. John, with son William, probably returned to Braintree at that time and the next year he and his two brothers were admitted to land called Hollis Grove that is located in both Braintree and Hocking.
The records for the Braintree parish, Essex, England prior to 1660 were destroyed and baptism/christening data for that period of time is unavailable. Copies of the wills for that period are available, however, and have proven to be most useful.

2. BIRTH, MAIDEN NAME & MARRIAGE DATA FOR MARTHA, WIFE OF WILLIAM WILBORE, CAN'T BE VERIFIED - POSSIBLY HOLMES, BUT IF SO NOT 1640 DAUGHTER OF OBIDIAH HOLMES

  • "12. WILLIAM WILBORE (John4, Joseph3, Nicholas2, Thomas1 ?), of Braintree, co. Essex, England, and Portsmouth, R. I., married either in England or America, MARTHA________.
  • "It is not known when William came to America, but according to the Manor Rolls of Braintree he bought land in Braintree of John Webb on 30 March 1647, as William Wilbore, son of John. On 2 Jan. 1650 he sold this land to Thomas Rowell and Mary his wife. According to these transactions, William was not married in 164y7, for usually in the Manor Rolls the name of the wife is given when a person buys land.
  • "We do not hear of William again until 10 July 1654, when his cousin, Samuel Wilbore, transferred ten acres of land to him in Portsmouth, land that had belonged formerly to Thomas Emmons."

(2) MRS. MARTHA WILBORE [CONTRIBUTED TO ANCESTRY.COM BY "Mindyw97"] Birth: unknown Death: unknown

  • She is NOT the daughter of Rev. Obadiah Holmes and Catherine Hyde. Their daughter Martha was born at Newport,RI on May 13,1640 (much too late to be the mother of Wilbore children born in the early 1650's), and she married John Odlin. Obadiah Holmes mentions a daughter Martha Odlin in his will of 1682. William Wilbore lived until 1710, and John Odlin lived until 1711. William Wilbore and John Odlin had children whose dates of birth overlapped.

(3) His wife Martha is not mentioned in the will of William Wilbore written on 1 March 1709/1710, so she must have already died prior to that date - probably in Portsmouith, Rhode Island, as that is indicated as the place of William in his will.

Tiverton was incorporated by English colonists in 1694 as part of the Province of Massachusetts Bay. In 1746, in the final settlement of a long colonial boundary dispute between Rhode Island and Massachusetts, Tiverton was annexed to Rhode Island by Royal Decree (together with its fellow towns along the eastern shore of Narragansett Bay, Barrington, Bristol and Little Compton, and the town of Cumberland, to the north of Providence). Tiverton was incorporated as a town of Rhode Island in 1747. Until that year, Tiverton also controlled the area of East Freetown, Massachusetts, as an outpost. The boundary settlement of 1746 had put East Freetown in Massachusetts, and in 1747 it was purchased by Freetown.Wilbur-403 08:32, 27 March 2016 (EDT)
