Email from Sarah Fisher, 7/24/07:
Hello cousin Megan!
Here are my lines from Samuel Hubbard:
Bethiah-Judith Clarke-Bethiah Maxon (married cousin Joseph Maxon)-Judith Maxon-Joanna Davis
Ruth-Tacy Burdick-Joseph Maxon (married cousin Bethiah Maxon)-Judith Maxon-Joanna Davis
Joanna Davis married James Isaiah Smith a United Empire Loyalist. They had James Smith who married Elizabeth Bull. I'm descended from 2 of their children:
1.Richard Smith-James Smith- Phoebe Sophia Smith (married James Henry Beyea)-William Henry Beyea-Ewilda Elizabeth Beyea-John Marshall Fisher-Sarah Elizabeth Fisher
2.Mary Smith-John B.Beyea-James Henry Beyea (married Phoebe Sophia Beyea)-William Henry Beyea-Ewilda Elizabeth Beyea-John Marshall Fisher-Sarah Elizabeth Fisher
Also here is the story of Rev. John Maxon's (husband to Judith Clarke) father and grandfather. His father was John Maxon (married to Mary Mosher) and his grandfather was Richard Maxon (married to a Rebecca ?).
Richard Maxon, a blacksmith, came to Boston on ship "Griffin" with religious dissenter Anne Hutchinson in 1634. On June 25th 1642 he sold his property (1 house 5 & 3/4 acres of land) to William Roulston but left, following Anne Hutchinson to Long Isl., before receiving payment. Wife received payment, after he died, on 20 May 1644. He died in 1643 during the Pequot Wars. After attack on town (Pelham Bay L.I.?), Richard and his family escaped by boat but Richard & Richard Jr. went back for supplies & were killed. Rebecca (preg.) and her dau. Rebecca made it back to Rhode Isl. in the small boat. Soon after a son John was born.
John was made a freeman in Westerly R.I. on October 29th, 1668. He was Deputy to General Assembly in 1670, 1686, 1690, 1705. In 1678 he was Overseer of the Poor. On September 20th 1708 he was ordained to office of elder (pastor) of church in Westerly RI (now called First Hopkinson Seventh Day Baptist Church of Ashway RI). He was married to Mary Mosher, daughter of Nicholas Mosher and Lydia Maxon. Nicholas owned almost 1/5th of Westerly Rhode Island at the time and he was also an ensign in King Philip's War.
If you need any birthdates or deathdates of those people just let me know.
Smiles,
Sarah

Tradition states Richard and his oldest son, Richard, died in an Indian attack. This same raid was the one in which Ann Hutchinson and family were killed.
