Families of the Children of Thomas4 Washburn (Jr.) and Elizabeth4 Howland

 

 

         The families of the children of Thomas Washburn (Jr.) and Elizabeth Howland are still very much uncertain. I have here followed the marriage and children of only one son, but there were probably other children that I have not been able trace. The family and life of Timothy Washburn and Sarah Miller is rather incomplete, and will be corrected and added to as new information is uncovered.

(393.) Timothy5 Washburn, probably eldest son of (118) Thomas4 Washburn (Jr.), (57) Thomas3, (43) John2 (5th), (28) John1 (4th); born probably in North Yarmouth, Maine, in, say 1726, baptized in North Yarmouth on 29 Aug. 1731,[1] married Sarah Miller, daughter of James and Margaret (McLellen) Miller,[2] in say 1746, and they settled in the part of Kennebunkport, ME, that later became Arundel, York Co., ME, after 1761. She was born ca. 1725 in ME,[3] a granddaughter of Joseph Miller, who came to Arundel, ME, from Ireland in about 1740.[4]

         Timothy Washburn was a mariner,[5] and he died after 1769, when he was granted administration of his son David Washburn's estate.[6] No death or probate records were found for Timothy Washburn, but after his death Sarah (Miller) Washburn supposedly remarried to Jonathan Stone (Jr.), son of Jonathan and Hannah (Lovet) Stone, as his third wife.[7] He had married first to Hannah Griffin, and secondly to Phebe Downing.[8]

         Timothy Washburn and Sarah Miller had children, order uncertain:

+     1115     i   David6 Washburn, born say 1747 in ME, married (___) Wormwood in say 1767,[9] and they lived in Arundel, York Co., ME. (Continued in Washburn Sixth Generation.)

        1115a   ii   Alexander Washburn, a mariner, died at sea.[10]

+      1116   iii   Joseph6 Washburn, married Mary “Molly” Miller, daughter of Jeremiah and Mary (Walker) Miller (Jr.), of Arundel York Co., ME,[11] on 14 Apr. 1790 in Arundel, ME.[12] (Continued in Washburn Sixth Generation.)

+      1117   iv   Mary6 Washburn, born ca. 1760 in ME,[13] married Daniel Lord, son of Capt. Tobias and Jane (Smith) Lord,[14] on 11 Jan. 1781 in Kennebunkport, Arundel Township, York Co., ME.[15] (Continued in Washburn Sixth Generation.)

        1117a   v   Sarah Washburn, born say 1765 in ME, married Ammi or George Hooper (Jr.), son of George Hooper,[16] on 6 Feb. 1785.[17] She died, and he remarried to Sarah (___) Tarbox, a widow.[18] Children not found.

+      1118   vi   Margaret6 Washburn, born ca. 1768 in ME,[19] married Samuel Hutchins,[20] son of Josiah and Elizabeth “Betsey” (Haley) Hutchins, of Arundel, ME,[21] on 8 Jan. 1789 in Arundel, ME.[22] (Continued in Washburn Sixth Generation.)

        1119  vii   (Probably) Thomas6 Washburn, born after 1756,[23] married Mary (Brown) Wakefield, daughter of Andrew and Elizabeth (Harding) Brown, and widow of John Wakefield,[24] on 14 Apr. 1798 in Wells, ME,[25] and they were living in Wells, York Co., ME, in the 1800 federal census, with about 4 daughters,[26] who were probably from her first marriage.[27] He died by 1805, but no probate records were filed for his estate in York Co., ME, and she remarried again to Joseph Parsons on 19 Nov. 1805 in Kennebunk, ME,[28] then to Daniel Crosby on 13 June 1820 in York, ME,[29] and finally to Eliakim Bickford.[30] Thomas Washburn may have had a daughter who died in infancy:

a. Mary Washburn, born ca. 1801, died on 30 May 1802 in ME, aged 1 year.[31]
