  Richard Ormsby (1608 - 1664) Richard was born about 1602 [date provided by Marjorie Ormsby Rines of Rochester, NH] probably in Lincolnshire, England.  He is recorded at Saco, Maine [in Mass. Colony] in 1639 where his first wife died.  He probably had been there some years before.  About 1640, he married a widow, Sarah Wanton, who may have been an Upham.
  
  Richard moved from Saco, Maine to Haverhill, Mass., then to Salisbury, and finally settled in Rehoboth, Mass. where he died on June 10, 1664.
  
  Richard Ormsby's inventory was presented in Rehoboth, Mass on May 3, 1664, and amounted to 45 pounds, 14 shillings, 6 pence.
  
  It is thought by some that Richard came to America with a brother Jonathan, but the only record of a Jonathan, of the proper time, is in Rehoboth, Vermont, of deaths, of a Jonathan who died in 1662.[phelps.FTW]
