Narrative

[Brøderbund WFT Vol. 1, Ed. 1, Tree #1377, Date of Import: Oct 25, 1998]
Usually referred to as "Deacon John", he was a much respected and useful man in both town and church affairs. He was first elected selectman in 1689 and served in that office in 1692, 93, 96, 98, and from 1700 until his death. In 1691, he was the sixth man chosen as Deacon of the First Church and served 14 years until his death.
He was the father of the most remarkable family probably ever raised in Northampton. Of his 12 children, only one died young. The remaining 6 sons and 5 daughters all married and all outlived their mates. Three sons lived past 80 years and 3 past 90. When his widow, Mary, died, she left 83 grandchildren.
Dea. John died at Windsor, Ct.Sept. 3, 1704 from fatigue and cold taken in a snowstorm on his way home from Boston. At that time, a trip to Boston on horseback was about a weeks journey. His children were all unmarried at the time so his death was a heavy blow to the family as well as to the church and community.
