Hello cousin Megan!
Here are my lines from Samuel Hubbard:
Bethiah-Judith Clarke-Bethiah Maxon (married cousin Joseph Maxon)-Judit
h Maxon-Joanna Davis
Ruth-Tacy Burdick-Joseph Maxon (married cousin Bethiah Maxon)-Judith Ma
xon-Joanna Davis
Joanna Davis married James Isaiah Smith a United Empire Loyalist. They h
ad James Smith who married Elizabeth Bull. I'm descended from 2 of thei
children:
1.Richard Smith-James Smith- Phoebe Sophia Smith (married James Henry B
eyea)-William Henry Beyea-Ewilda Elizabeth Beyea-John Marshall Fisher-S
arah Elizabeth Fisher
2.Mary Smith-John B.Beyea-James Henry Beyea (married Phoebe Sophia Beye
a)-William Henry Beyea-Ewilda Elizabeth Beyea-John Marshall Fisher-Sara
h Elizabeth Fisher
Also here is the story of Rev. John Maxon's (husband to Judith Clarke) f
ather and grandfather. His father was John Maxon (married to Mary Moshe
) and his grandfather was Richard Maxon (married to a Rebecca ?).
Richard Maxon, a blacksmith, came to Boston on ship "Griffin" with reli
gious dissenter Anne Hutchinson in 1634. On June 25th 1642 he sold his p
operty (1 house 5 & 3/4 acres of land) to William Roulston but left, f
ollowing Anne Hutchinson to Long Isl., before receiving payment. Wife r
eceived payment, after he died, on 20 May 1644. He died in 1643 during t
he Pequot Wars. After attack on town (Pelham Bay L.I.?), Richard and hi
s family escaped by boat but Richard & Richard Jr. went back for suppli
es & were killed. Rebecca (preg.) and her dau. Rebecca made it back to R
hode 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 D
eputy to General Assembly in 1670, 1686, 1690, 1705. In 1678 he was Ove
seer of the Poor. On September 20th 1708 he was ordained to office of e
lder (pastor) of church in Westerly RI (now called First Hopkinson Seve
th Day Baptist Church of Ashway RI). He was married to Mary Mosher, da
ughter of Nicholas Mosher and Lydia Maxon. Nicholas owned almost 1/5th o
f Westerly Rhode Island at the time and he was also an ensign in King P
hilip's War.
If you need any birthdates or deathdates of those people just let me kn
ow.
Smiles,
Sarah
