Families of the Children of Jonathan5 Washburn and Judith/Judah Wood

 

 

            The children of Jonathan Washburn and Judith or Judah Wood lived in Middleborough, Taunton or Bridgewater, Massachusetts, as did most of their grandchildren, but the family began to branch out after that, with some moving to Rochester, Easton, Freetown, New Bedford, Swansea, Boston, Worcester and Haverhill in Massachusetts, some to Portland, Maine, some to New York, some to Alabama and Tennessee, and some to Illinois and Colorado. In addition to being descendants of Francis Cooke, this family also descends from John Billington, of the Mayflower. This was a very large and difficult family to research, and I have had to rely heavily on the Charles M. Thatcher compilation of Middleborough families for births and marriages that were never recorded in the Middleborough town records. Be patient; this file may load slowly.

(1296.) Benjamin6 Washburn, eldest son of (431) Jonathan5 Washburn, (126) Capt. Benjamin4, (58) Samuel3, (43) John2 (5th), (28) John1 (4th); born probably in Middleborough, MA, in early 1752,[1] married Alice Shaw, of Middleborough, on 6 Aug. 1777 in Middleborough.[2] She was born ca. 1754.[3] He served as a Private in Capt. Amos Wade’s Company from Middleborough during the Revolutionary War in Oct. 1775.[4]

        On 20 Sept. 1777 Benjamin Washburn, of Middleborough, yeoman, purchased 55 acres of land in Middleborough bounded partially on his father’s land from James and Phebe Keith Jr., of Middleborough, yeoman, for £320,[5] on 24 Oct. 1791 Benjamin Washburn, of Middleborough, yeoman, purchased 17 acres from the homestead of Robert and Lydia Green, of Middleborough, for £82,[6] on 31 Oct. 1794 Benjamin Washburn, of Middleborough, yeoman, purchased 11 acres and 77 rods of land in the Sixteen Shilling Purchase in Middleborough from Archelus and Lydia Leonard for £50,[7] on 23 Apr. 1796 Benjamin Washburn, of Middleborough, yeoman, sold to Silas White, of Middleborough, yeoman, 9¾ acres and 10 rods of land in Middleborough for $185.25,[8] and on 3 Jan. 1799 Benjamin Washburn, of Middleborough, yeoman, purchased one half of the grist mill standing near his dwelling house in Middleborough with the land it stands on and the use of the dam and stream from Zadock and Cynthia Leonard, of Middleborough, yeoman, for $275.[9] On 29 Apr. 1805 Simeon Leonard, of Middleborough, Blacksmith, sold to Benjamin Washburn, of Middleborough, yeoman, the farm in Middleborough which Zadock Leonard had given Benjamin Washburn a mortgage deed of on 12 Mar. 1803, for $800,[10] and on 17 Apr. 1815 Benjamin Washburn sold part of land in Middleborough that he had purchased from Robert Green to his nephews Nathan Washburn and Cyrus Washburn, of Middleborough, for $90.[11]

        They were probably the Benjamin “Washbon” family living in Middleborough, MA, next door to his father and his uncle, Job Richmond, in the 1790 federal census,[12] and in Middleborough in the 1800 federal census, next door to the widow Judith Washburn,[13] in the 1810 federal census,[14] and in the 1820 federal census, next door to the family of his son Linus Washburn.[15] In 1821 Lois Washburn, of Bridgewater, Singlewoman, Creditor, brought a lawsuit against Benjamin Washburn, of Middleborough, Yeoman, Debtor, for $397.99 damages over a debt, and received a judgement against him for $409.79, including court costs, so the Nathaniel Wilder Jr., the Deputy Sheriff of Plymouth County, was directed to seize land of Benjamin Washburn to satisfy the judgement on 20 Aug. 1821. Solomon Alden, Israel Richmond, and James Sproat were appointed to appraise the land, which was located on the easterly side of Purchade Brook in Middleborough, and it was appraised at only $240. The land was delivered to Lyman Hooper, the Creditor’s attorney, and Benjamin Washburn, the Debtor, paid an additional $190.05 on 21 Sept. 1821 to satisfy the judgement.[16]

        Benjamin Washburn died intes­tate on 5 Apr. 1822 in Titicut, MA, aged 70 years.[17] His sons Linus Washburn, Gentleman, and Benjamin Washburn, yeoman, were granted admin­istration of his estate in Middleborough on 7 May 1822, with Benjamin Richmond and Samuel Miller, of Middleborough, as sureties.[18] His inventory was appraised by Benjamin Richmond, Samuel Miller Jr., and David Alden, all of Middleborough, presented on 17 June 1822, and totaled $6751.10, including his real estate appraised at $6027, his widow was allowed $130 out of the personal estate for her necessaries, the estate was declared insol­vent by $4400, and his real estate was ordered sold to pay his debts.[19] Jonathan Washburn, Bela Fobes, Philo Washburn and Polly Washburn approved the final accounting of Linus and Benjamin Washburn, administrators of the estate of Benjamin Washburn.[20] On 21 Jan. 1823 Linus Washburn and Benjamin Washburn, administrators of the estate of their father, Benjamin Washburn, sold at public auction 2 acres and 5 rods of cedar swamp in Middle­borough to James Padelford, of Taunton, and Jarvis Robinson, of Raynham, for $62.96,[21] 1 acre of cedar swamp in Middleborough to Capt. John Padelford and Maj. Nathan King, of Taunton, for $180,[22] 1 acre of cedar swamp in Middleborough to Israel Hall, of Raynham, for $100.50,[23] another piece of cedar swamp to Paul Hathaway, Ebenezer Shaw, and Orlando Shaw, all of Middle­borough, for $136,[24] another piece of cedar swamp to Orlando Shaw, Paul Hathaway, Zephaniah Shaw Jr. and Ebenezer Shaw, of Middleborough, for $84,[25] and a tract of lands in Middleborough that was part of the Purchade Lot that Benjamin Washburn had purchased from Robert Green to Cyrus White, of Middleborough, Yeoman, for $320.36,[26] and in all the sales Alice Washburn, widow of Benjamin Washburn, re­leased her right of dower. Alice (Shaw) Washburn died a widow on 28 July 1823 in Middleborough, aged 69 years,[27] and they were both buried in Titicut Parish Cemetery in Middleborough, MA.

Brown and James W. Crossman were appointed to appraise the estate of Isaac Washburn and set off to his widow her dower or thirds in the real estate on 4 Jan. 1833.[1880] (See Appendix [M] for a full transcription of his will.)

He may have been one of the grandchildren “residing in the State of New York” in 1832 because he did not sign either the petition or consent for the probate of the will of his grandfather, Isaac Washburn. He may have been the William W. Crossman living in the 16th Ward, District 2, of New York City in the 1860 federal census.[1966]

Hannah S. Washburn, widow of William Washburn, late of Taunton, declined administration of his estate, and petitioned that Charles Porter, of Taunton, be appointed as administrator on 1 Oct. 1853.

The will of Lousia Washburn late of Taunton was proved by Abby D. Covington and Ebenezer Dawes on 7 Aug. 1840, as the other witness, Austis P. Manton, “is not within this commonwealth,” and Salmon Washburn of Taunton and George Washburn of Swansey were sureties on the bond of John N. Washburn of Taunton, the executor. Levi Hale, John Holloway, and Elkanah Andrews, all of Taunton, were appointed to appraise the estate of Louisa Washburn late of Taunton, on 5 Sept. 1840. Her inventory included one undivided eleventh part of the real estate of the late Isaac Washburn, deceased, valued at $700.00. John N. Washburn, the executor, made oath to the inventory on 2 Mar. 1841. Betsey Washburn gave her receipt in a very feeble handwriting in Jan. 1845 for her share of the estate of Louisa Washburn.
