Hampton, New HampshireSome Ancestors & Descendants ofMercy Batchelder & Samuel Dearborn This report is limited to our own direct-line descendants. For more information about the Batchelder, Dearborn and Sherburn families in Hampton, see the material available at the Lane Memorial Library's database of Hampton genealogy. Rev.
Stephen Bachiler was born
ca 1561 in England, completed his education at University
of Oxford St. John's College about 1581.1
His B. A. degree was granted in 1586 following which he may have served
briefly as chaplain to Lord de la Warr (Delaware) before becoming vicar
of Wherwell in Hampshire, "on presentation of" his lordship, in 1587.
All six of his children --three sons and three daughters--by his first
wife, were born during the eighteen years he was at Wherwell.
During this period, he adopted the Puritan
beliefs and was often at odds with church leaders. He and other
English reformers were encouraged by the success
of the Plymouth Pilgrims of 1620, and decided to seek in the New World
a freer atmosphere for their religious opinions. He
emigrated to New England in
early 1632 on the ship "William
and Francis". The William and Francis left
London March 9, 1632 with Master Mr. Thomas, landing
New England on June 5, 1632. Passengers: Rev. Stephen Bachiler (71 years of age) and his third wife, Helena; his widowed daughter, Deborah Wing, and her three sons, Daniel, John, and Stephen; also three Sanborne grandsons (Stephen, John, and William). He went immediately to Lynn, where his son-in-law, Christopher Hussey, was already resident. There he began his ministry in New England, his church, organized in Holland, uniting with others, previously at Lynn, without asking permission, and without ceremony. From Lynn, Mr. Bachiler removed to Ipswich. In 1637, he had his company undertook to form a settlement at Matakeese [Yarmouth] on Cape Cod. Governor Winthrop says that he was then "about seventy-six years of age; yet he went thither on foot in a very hard season," the distance from Ipswich being nearly one hundred miles. This enterprise was relinquished on account of the poverty of the company, and the difficulties that they had to encounter. In 1638, Mr. Bachiler and some or all of his company were at Newbury, and in the fall of that year settled at Winnacunnet. (Source: Joseph Dow, History of Hampton) Rev. Bachiler was the founder of Hampton, NH, (originally still part of Massachusetts). He returned to England ca 1651 after his disastrous 4th marriage, and died in London in 1656. Although his origins in England are unknown, he led a long and colorful life. Much has been written about him, a lot of which is untrue or inaccurate. Several short biographies of him can be found online at the Lane Memorial Library The plaque on
the stone in Hampton's Founder's Park commemorating the
founding of the town in
1638. This triangular piece of land
across the street from the Tuck Museum was laid out as a memorial
to the founders of Hampton and in the center was placed a
twelve-ton boulder & plaque.
NATHANIEL
BATCHELDER, son of Stephen and Ann Batchiler, was born ca
1590
Wherwell, Hampshire, England. He did not accompany his father
to
the colonies, but
According to historians, Stephen's parentage is unknown and any references you may find to his father on the internet are said to be false and disproven. Authorities report that Stephen spelled his surname as BACHILER, but spelling was based on sound, and variations of Stephen's name include BATCHELER, BACHELDER and BACHELLOR. Charles E. Batchelder; [New England Historical and Genealogical Register 1892] The names of
four children Stephen Bachiler are known with certainty.
Deborah,
born in 1592, child of his first wife; Stephen, born in 1594, son of the first wife; Ann, born in 1601, probably of the first wife; and Theodate, who died October 20, 1649, at Hampton, N. H. That Nathaniel Bachiler, senior, of Hampton, was the grandson and not the son of our Rev. Stephen Bachiler is proved beyond question by Rev. Stephen's deed to his four grandchildren in 1647. remained in England. He married (1) Hester Mercer, Southhampton, England ca. 1594. Hester's family belonged to the Walloon refugees from the Spanish Netherlands.

Stephen Bachilder, on the ship William and Francis in 1632, he is not included on the ship's passenger list, and it seems likely he may have remained in England. He married (1) Deborah Smith 10 Dec 1656; (2) MARY CARTER, 31 Oct 1676, Woburn, Middlesex, MA.; and (3) "Elizabeth" on 8 Oct 1689. Misc.

MERCY BATCHELDER,
daughter of Nathaniel Batchelder
and his second wife, Mary Carter, was born 11
December 1677 in Hampton,
Rockingham Co. NH, and died Aft. 1720 in Hampton, NH. She
married SAMUEL DEARBORN. Samuel was
born 27 Jan 1669/70
in Hampton, Rockingham Co. NH., the second

Samuel died Aft. 17468.
Samuel's
grandfather, Godfrey Dearborn, the Dearborn immigrant
ancestor, was
among the settlers of both Exeter and Hampton, in what was then still part of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Born 24 September 1603 in Willoughby, Lincoln, England, Godfrey, his wife Ann and two children --Thomas and Henry-- came to New England in the spring of 1638. (Colonial Families of the United States of America: Volume 4). Four additional children were born in the colony. Godfrey Dearborn was reportedly one of the followers of the Puritan, Rev. John Wheelwright, the founder of Exeter, who was banished from the MA Bay Colony in 1639 along with his flock for supporting his sister-in-law, Anne Hutchinson, in the Antinomian controversy. Little is known about Ann Dearborn. She was living in the early part of 1651,3 butIn Memory of Godfrey Dearborn: The Dearborn Monument "The
obelisk, which is Barre, Vermont, granite, was manufactured in that
town, and shipped to Hampton in October, 1890. In the spring of 1891,
it was placed in position upon the rock foundation prepared for it.
[In the Hampton
High Street Cemetery]
The
first base is ten feet square and one foot deep; second base, eight feet square and one foot deep; third
base, six feet square and fifteen inches deep with finely moulded edge. On this rests the
die, which is four feet square and six
feet high, its faces and the round
pillars at the corners being highly polished. Surmounting this is the cap, projecting over the die about six inches. This and
the plinth above it are at once graceful in design and finish, and sufficiently massive to receive the main
shaft, which is three feet two inches square at the bottom, and twenty
inches square near the top, from which it tapers to a point, and towers
thirty-one feet above the plinth. The whole structure stands forty-six
feet high.
"The inscriptions are as follows: On the west face of the second base is "DEARBORN", in heavy raised letters; on the north face of the die, 'Ancestor of the Dearborn family in America, who emigrated to Exeter, N.H., in 1639, settled in Hampton in 1650, and died in 1686'; on the west face of the die, 'Erected 1890, by Joseph Frederic Dearborn, son of Jonathan and Sarah Towle Dearborn, in memory of Godfrey Dearborn'; on the south face: "Joseph Frederic Dearborn, born May 14th, 1817; died March 15th 1889'. On the four sides of the lower margin of the cap are the mottoes: 'FIRST THE USEFUL, THEN THE ORNAMENTAL'; 'TRUST FEW, DECEIVE NONE'; 'BE RESOLUTE AND PERSEVERE'; 'DO RIGHT AND FEAR NOT'. On the four sides of the plinth are the words, 'TEMPERANCE', 'ECONOMY', 'TRUTH', 'INDUSTRY'. Children of Godfrey Dearborn and Ann Dearborn are: i. Thomas Dearborn, born Bef. 01 Nov 1632 in Hannah, Lincoln, ENG; died 14 Apr 1710 in Hampton, York Co. NH. ii.

He married MARGARET SHERBURNE 19 Jan 1737/38 in Hampton, NH14, daughter of JOHN SHERBURNE and JANE DRAKE. She was born 29 Jun 1718 in Hampton, York Co. NH. Notes about John Sherburne, Margaret's father: "In 1722 ... as appears from the return of a committee, appointed to lay out land to men who had lost their lots in the First North Division, the report being made July 9th, of that year. Five acres of land were laid out to Lieut. John Sherburne, "near ye Mill Pond about seven rod from ye Grist Mill and so bounding on said Pond" &c." [History of Hampton Chapter 31 --Part 3] Margaret's paternal grandfather, Samuel Sherburne, was killed near Casco Bay during King Phillip's War: From Joseph Dow's HISTORY OF HAMPTON Ch 13 --Part 2 "A little past midsummer [August 4, 1691] a small army was sent out under the command of four captains, one of whom was Samuel Sherburne, of Hampton. The forces landed at Maquoit, near Casco, and marched up to Pechypscot (now Brunswick, Me.), but finding no signs of the enemy, returned to Maquoit, where they had left their vessels. While the commanders were on the shore, waiting for the soldiers to get aboard, a great number of Indians suddenly poured in upon them, and they were obliged to retreat to their vessels; but this was a difficult matter, as, the tide being down, the vessels were aground; and before it could be accomplished Captain Sherburne was slain. He had been a resident of Hampton ten or twelve years, and was well known as the keeper of the ordinary, or tavern. He was a captain in the militia; three years a selectman of the town; was once chosen to represent the town in the General Court; and in January next preceding his death, as has been stated, he was on the committee to employ and send out scouts, and to keep an account of the expenses incurred in the war". Margaret's maternal grandfather, Abraham Drake, was a selectman of Hampton in 1696, 1703, and 1708; juryman in 1698.He was 1 of 8 owners of the 40-ton brigatine Increase, which was built in Hampton. He also served in the military in King Philip's War. Like the Dearborns, when the Drakes and Sherburns left England, they initially settled in Exeter before moving to Hampton.

David was known in later years as an accomplished glass-blower, and that may be what the unreadable word on the 1850 census refers to. 1850
