William "and his wife, and 2 sons and two daughters came from Old Hingham and settled in New Hingham, 1638." (Cushing's MS.) The same year he had a grant of land at Hingham Centre containing four acres, a large proportion of which is still held in the family name. Unfortunately, our records furnish no information relating to the wife who came with him and was the mother of his children nor is her Christian name or date of death known. For his second wife he married in Hingham Sept. 29, 1654, Mrs. Elizabeth Thaxter, the widow of Thomas Thaxter. She outlived him, and married for her third husband, Jan. 20, 1657-58, John Dwight of Dedham, and died 17 July, 1660. William died 20 July, 1656. Will dated June 30, 1656, proved 24 Jan. 1656-57. " Weaver." Resided on Alain St., by the "training field," Hingham Centre.
