The Grandchildren of John Wing

Children of Susannah Wing & William Parslow:

1.Mary Parslow, born about 1628

Children of Joseph Wing and Jerusha Mayhew:

1. John Wing, born June 6, 1673. Presumably died young.

2. Jane Wing, born about 1675 at Yarmouth, Barnstable
Co., Massachusetts. Moved to Shrewsbury, Monmouth Co., East Jersey and probably died there. Married John West on October 15, 1694.

John West , son of Bartholomew West and Katherine /Catherine Almy. , was the grandson of the venerable William Lynn Almy (one of the Ten Men of Saugus, who founded Sandwich, Massachusetts) and his wife, Audrey Barlow. William Almy and his wife had seven children, among who were Catherine, John and Christopher Almy.
It just so happened thatChristopher Almy, brother to Catherine, married Elizabeth Cornell. While Christopher Almy was a well respected man in his time, his brother-in-law, Thomas Cornell was hung on May 23, 1673, for the murder of his mother, Rebecca Briggs Cornell. John Almy, brother to both Catherine Almy and Christopher Almy, was married to Mary Cole. Mary Cole Almy, wife of John Almy testified against Thomas Cornell in her deposition. For more information about the trial of Thomas Cornell, I refer you to Books by Jane Fletcher Fiske

Jane Wing West died before her husband, John West, although at this time her date of death is unknown. John West died March 4, 1728 and provided for his children in his will. Will and Inventory of John West.

Descendants of the West family will find the following to be of interest; Stephen West, another son of Bartholomew West and Catherine Almy, married Mercy Cooke, daughter of John Cooke and Sarah Warren, both Mayflower descendants of Francis Cooke and Richard Warren. Entries found in the famous West family Bible, record that, "Mother Mercy West deceased November 21, 1733, in ye 77th year of her age, she was ye daughter of John Cooke, ye first ordained minister of Dartmouth." "This Bible was the property of Bartholomew West, grandson of Stephen and Mercy, and was in the ancient home of this family near the village of Fairhaven, at the time of the British invasion under General Grey, during the Revolutionary War. The troops after pilfering most of the families's valuables, set fire to the house, refusing to help the faithful housekeeper to carry out the helpless old patriot, Bartholomew West, because he was loyal to the colonies. He was removed to a place of safety in the orchard near by and watched the destruction of his home and its contents by the British hordes. Many years after, the family Bible, stolen in the raid, came into the possession of a British chaplain, stationed with the troops in Gibralter, who carefully copied the many valuable entries and later sent them to New England. But the Bible to this day is the property of the Forty-Sixth regiment, now known as the Duke of Cromwell's regiment, stationed at Plymouth, England." (From the book, Bullard and Allied Families .

When Mary White married Jedediah Lombard, she was marrying her second cousin, once removed. Jedediah was the son of Captain Thomas Lombard and Mary Newcomb, the grandson of Hannah Wing and Jedediah Lombard, the great-grandson of Daniel Wing and Hannah Swift. It is also worth mentioning that Mary White Lombard gave birth to seventeen children; twelve sons and five daughters. All of them single births.

Children of John Wing and Mary Unknown:

1. Hannah Wing, born about 1677, married Moses Barlow prior to March of 1699. Hannah Wing was the second wife of Deacon Moses Barlow and their agreement to be married was unusual enough to be remembered and written about:

Wilson Barstow wrote in 1879 [34]: "The Barlows and the Hammonds were the ancient nobility of the place. Old Deacon Moses Barlow, one of the first proprietors to lay out land, was famous in his day as a deacon, pillar of the church, and leader in society. It is said that when the wife of Deacon Barlow died, he mourned for her with due propriety for a year and a day. Then mounting his horse, he rode to the home of a maiden lady, and having knocked with his cane without dismounting, he greeted her with, `Good morning, I am in pursuit of a wife; if you will have me, I will come in, if not, I will go farther.' `Why, Deacon,' was the reply, `How you astonish me! Thank you, you had better come in.' A few days later there was a wedding, and the Deacon took his new wife home on a pillion behind him.'"

By marrying into the Barlow family, Hannah supplied the villain for our family history in the person of her father-in-law, George Barlow. George Barlow became constable and "special marshall" of Sandwich, Massachusetts on June 1, 1658. George Barlow was especially well known for his zealousness in the persecution of those with Quaker sympathies. In his book Cape Cod, Its People and Their History [29], Henry C. Kittredge wrote of George Barlow: "It was his habit to take not what would be most valuable to the authorities, but what would be most poignantly missed by the Quaker families." One of those examples is the way George Barlow harassed the William Allen family. ( William Allen was the brother of Ralph Allen who married Esther Swift, sister of Hannah Swift, first wife of Daniel Wing.)

2. John Wing, born about 1680 at Yarmouth, Massachusetts, married three times; (1) Achsah Winslow, (2) Bethia Winslow, (3) Rebecca Freeman Vickerie.

Bethia Winslow, second wife of John Wing, the daughter of Kenelm Winslow and Bethia Hall, granddaughter of Kenelm Winslow and Mercy Worden, great-great-niece of Governor Edward Winslow who was known as,"Leader of the Pilgrims to America and Governor of the Plymouth Colony. Born October 18, 1595 in Droitwich, England. Died May 8, 1655. Married May 16, 1618, Elizabeth Barker, of Chetsum, England, in Leyden, Holland, where they resided until time of embarkation in the "Mayflower" for America."

"Elizabeth (Barker) Winslow died March 24, 1621. Edward Winslow married second, May 12, 1621, Susanna (Fuller) White who died October 1, 1680, widow of William White and mother of Peregrine, the first English child born in New England. This was the first marriage solemnized in the new colony."
