PEDIGREE

 

wager2182

 

Some genealogists erroneously claim he was the same "William Ludkin" that came in 8 APR 1637 in the Rose, (aged 33) with wife Elizabeth (aged 34); Savage makes a definite distinction between "Ludkin" and "Lumpkin" and says the following about William:

 

"WILLIAM, Yarmouth 1643, by w. Thomasine had Thomasine, b. 1626, wh. m. Samuel Mayo of Barnstable; and John Sunderland for sec. h.; perhaps Hannah, wh. prob. m. John Gray; ano. d. m. an Eldridge; but no s. and d. 1671. His will, of 23 July 1668, names his w. Thomasine."

 

He was a proprietor in Yarmouth, Massachusetts, where he was made freeman in 1638, Constable in 1639 and Deputy to the General Court in 1652. In MAR 1667, he was fined 10 schillings for disturbance of public worship. He & Peter Worden were sitting in a corner of a meeting house conversing during the service.

 

There have also been genealogists who have found a William Lumpkin born in 1574, although it is hard to believe that he died when he was almost 90 years old and that such an elderly widow would have married again.

 

His will is as follows:

 

"The Last Will and Testament of Mr. William Lumpkin of Yarmouth in the Jurisdiction of New Plymouth ordered by the Court helt att Plymouth the 29th of October 1671 To be heer Recorded as followeth. Witnesseth these prsents That I Willam Lumpkin of Yarmouth in the Collonie of New Plymouth being weake but of prfect sence and memory, Doe make and ordaine this my Last will and Testament in mannor and forme following ffirst I Resigne my soule to God that Gave it and my body the eart from whence it was; and all my estate and Goods I give and bequath unto my now wife Tamasin Lumpkin whome I make my sole Exequitrix of all my jousing and of my whole estate; both of lands Cattle and goods During her Naturall life; and after her Decease I Doe will and bequeath; halfe of my estate oth of lands Cattle and Goods and housing unto my Daughter Tamasin the wife of John Sunderling; To her and to heires and assignes for ever and I Doe will and bequeath unto my Granchild Willam Gray; whom I make my heire of the other halfe of my estate and to his heirs and assignes for ever; both of lands Cattles goods and housing what ever; provided and my will is That my said Grandchild Willam Gray shall pay or cause to be payed; unto my Grandchild Elisha Eldred the sume of five pounds in Currant pay; when hee Comes to the age of twenty one yeares old; and my will is that the said Elisha Eldred my Grandchild shall have my Loome; with all the Slayes and tacklinges that belonge to my weaveing trade; and my Will is that My Daughter Tamasine the wife of John Sunderling shall pay or cause to be payed unto Bethyah Eldred my Grandchild; when shee is twenty yeares old; or att the Day of her Marriage; the sume of five pounds in Country pay; and I Doe Nominate and appoint my beloved frinds Mr. Edmond hawes and John Thacher; as frinds in trust; To see this my last Will and Testament truely prformed; In witnes heerof to this my last will and Testament I have this three and twentyeth Day of July Anno Dom 1668 Sett to my hand and seale Signed & sealled in the prsense of Edmond hawes, John Thatcher Willam Lumpkin and a (seal) Mr John Thatcher Deposed to this Will before mee Thomas Prence Govr: this 7th of June 1671.
