Fifth Generation

40. Humphrey⁵ Turner⁽⁸⁶⁾ was born in England on an estimated date of 1593. Humphrey died June 5, 1673 in Scituate, Plymouth Co, MA, at age 79.

He married Lydia Gaymer October 24, 1618 in Sandon, Essex, England.⁽⁸⁷⁾ Lydia was born before May 18, 1602 (chr. date) in Terling, Essex, England. Lydia was the daughter of Richard Gaymer and Margaret Mason. Lydia died before 1673 in Scituate, MA, at age unknown.⁽⁸⁸⁾ She was christened May 18, 1602 in Terling, Essex, England.⁽⁸⁹⁾ Samuel Deane, in his History of Scituate, Massachusetts says he "arrived with his family in Plymouth in 1628." That statement is put in doubt by the record of the baptism of his daughter Lydia in Little Baddow, in Essex, on 17 February 1629/30. Deane says he had a house lot assigned to him in 1629, and built a house and resided there until probably 1633, when his house lot on Kent Street, "4th from the corner of Satuit brook", was layed out. Perhaps he built his first house, and then sent for his wife and young children. He erected a tannery in 1636, and was thereafter frequently mentioned in the public records.

Eugene Stratton, in Plymouth Colony Its History & People 1620-1691, listed him among those who had been freemen before 1 January 1632/3, and on the 1633 and 1634 tax lists of Plymouth Colony. Humphrey, Lydia his wife, and John the elder, John the younger, and Thomas, sons of Humphrey, and Lydia, his daughter appear in a list of 1627-1634 arrivals.

Deane quotes from his will, which named his children, in this order: "John, Joseph, young son John, Daniel, Nathaniel, Thomas, daughter Mary Parker -- daughter Lydia Doughty -- Grandchildren, Humphrey (son of Thomas) Mary Doughty -- Jonathan, Joseph and Ezekiel (sons of John, sen.) and Abigail, daughter of Nathaniel." Executors were Nathaniel and young son John.

  He was christened March 24, 1621/2 in Terling, Essex, England.⁽⁹⁰⁾ Jacob Turner, in his 1852 genealogy, said John was alive in Scituate in 1683. His death is not listed in the vital records of Scituate.

• 42 ii. Lydia Turner was born in Little Baddow, Essex, England before February 17, 1629/0 (chr. date). Lydia died at age unknown. She married James Doughty August 15, 1649 in Scituate, MA.⁽⁹¹⁾ James was born circa 1620. James died at age unknown.

• 44 v. Mary Turner was born in Scituate, MA before January 25, 1634/5 (chr. date). Mary died at age unknown. She married William Parker November 13, 1651 in Scituate, MA.⁽⁹⁶⁾ William was born circa 1625. William died at age unknown.

  She was christened January 25, 1634/5 in Scituate, MA.⁽⁹⁷⁾

• 45 vi. Daniel Turner was born in Massachusetts after 1634/5. Daniel died after 1697/8 at age unknown.⁽⁹⁸⁾ He married Hannah Randall January 20, 1664/5.⁽⁹⁹⁾ Hannah was born.

• 46 vii. Joseph Turner was born in First Parish Ch., Scituate, MA January 1, 1636/7.⁽¹⁰⁰⁾ Joseph died November 1, 1715 in Scituate, MA, at age 78.⁽¹⁰¹⁾ Jacob Turner's 1852 Genealogy says he never married.

• 47 viii. Nathaniel Turner was born in First Parish Ch., Scituate, MA before March 10, 1638/9 (chr. date). Nathaniel died January 31, 1715/6 in Scituate, MA, at age 76.⁽¹⁰²⁾ He married Mehitable Rigby March 29, 1665 in Scituate, MA. Mehitable was born. Mehitable died March 22, 1680/1 in Scituate, MA, at age unknown.⁽¹⁰³⁾

  He was christened March 10, 1638/9 in First Parish Ch., Scituate, MA.⁽¹⁰⁴⁾

48. Lydia⁵ Gaymer was born in Terling, Essex, England before May 18, 1602 (chr. date). Lydia died before 1673 in Scituate, MA, at age unknown.⁽¹⁰⁵⁾

(Additional notes for Humphrey Turner⁽¹⁰⁷⁾) Humphrey died June 5, 1673 in Scituate, Plymouth Co, MA, at age 79. (See Humphrey Turner for the children resulting from this marriage.)

She was christened May 18, 1602 in Terling, Essex, England.⁽¹⁰⁸⁾

Although there is no document that connects the daughter of Richard and Margaret Gaymer of Terling to the Lydia Gamar who was married in Sandon, the circumstantial evidence is strong. No other Lydia Ga-m-r of an appropriate age is known. The orphaned Lydia would very likely have married soon after her sixteenth birthday. The Turners came to Terling to baptize their son, John. It may be noteworthy, however, that the couple apparently named no child after either of the Gaymers.

49. an unknown⁵ Hudson of Yorkshire birth date unknown. An died at age unknown.

John G. Hunt's article (T.A.G. 40:230) reports some hints about Ralph's background: "In Calendar of Ancient Deeds, Letters and Miscellaneous Documents, Kingston upon Hull (1951), at page 161, letter no. 48 is an application dated 27 Apr. 1586 from D. Richard Hudson for appointment as deputy to Mr. [Thomas] Thwing [of Heworth], the assessor of the Admiralty Court at Hull. This Mr. Thwing of Heworth is named in Joseph Foster's edition of Robert Glover's Visitation of Yorkshire, page 230. As this Thomas has a sister Katherine, wife of Ralph Thwenge of Heslarton, there may have been a connection with John Thwing of Hull ..." "It should be noted that Porter, op. cit., page 535, gives a pedigree of Hudson of Normanby, listing one Raphe Hudson of that parish, aged 21 years in 1612. The question is, was he the Ralph who came to New England in 1635 aged 42? Despite a small disparity in age, the possibility exists. If born in 1592, Ralph could have been styled aged 21 in 1612, and 42 in 1635. Normanby is some ten miles west of Heslarton ..."

  Ralph Hudson, a woolen draper, came to New England in April, 1635, in the ship "Susan and Ellen".

  In 1638, feeling his mortality some thirteen years before his actual death, he made his will: "The last will of Ralph Hudson being now in perfect memory this 24th of the 7th mo 1638. Imp: I doe give unto the Treasury of the Church of Boston the some of forty pounds of Currant English mony to be paid within Six months after my Decease.

Leverett, James Penne The terms of taht will seem to clearly indicate that in 1638, his only living child was Hannah. Elizabeth must have died on the voyage or upon arrival. John, listed out of age order on the passenger list among Ralph's children, must have been the minor brother named in the will.
