Jemima Wallingford
F, b. 25 December 1742, d. 28 August 1792
This research is a work in progress, taken from sources of varying reliability. The information should be verified before being relied upon.
Birth* | Jemima Wallingford was born on 25 December 1742 in Bradford, Essex County, MassachusettsG.1 |
Marriage* | She married John Edwards III, son of John Edwards and Elizabeth Crockett, on 2 April 1761 in Haverhill, Essex County, MassachusettsG. She was "of Bradford" at the time of their marriage.2,3 |
Death* | Jemima died on 28 August 1792 in Haverhill, Essex County, MassachusettsG.4 |
| John was a cooper in Haverhill, Mass.5 On 6 January 1789 John Edwards, yeoman, of Haverhill, gave bond for David Wallingford, yeoman, of Hollis, N.H., for the administration of the estate of Martha Wallingford of Haverhill, widow, deceased intestate.6 David was presumably his brother in law, and Martha his mother-in-law.
On 6 Apr 1789 they sold their home in Haverhill and purchased a new one in Gilmanton, N.H.7, but he didn't live there long as he died there in September of that same year. Jemima apparently returned home after his death because she died in Haverhill a few years later. |

Ezekiel Wallingford
M, d. 17 August 1746
This research is a work in progress, taken from sources of varying reliability. The information should be verified before being relied upon.
Birth* | Ezekiel Wallingford was born. |
Marriage* | He married Lydia Brown on 21 February 1737/38 in Concord, Middlesex County, MassachusettsG. He was of Lancaster and she was of Concord at the time of their marriage. Their intention was filed in Lancaster on 18 January 1737/8.12 |
Death* | Ezekiel was killed by Indians, on 17 August 1746, in Payquage Plantation (now Athol), Worcester County, MassachusettsG. Different sources state that he was buried in the Highland Cemetery or the Mt. Pleasant Cemetery in Athol, Mass. These may be two names for the same cemetery..3,4 |
| Shackford5 speculates that Ezekiel was born about 1717, son of Nicholas Wallingford (John, Nicholas), but I can find no justification for this. He seems to base this on the fact that Ezekiel apparently once lived in Dover, N.H. before moving to Massachusetts. On 6 February 1732/3 Ezekiel Wolonford was one of a large number of people from Dover who petitioned for a new township grant where "there is a considerable Tract of land very commodious for Settlement lying nigh Winnepissocay Pond" and we "not having a competency of land to afford us a comfortable Subsistance". This petition was "Order'd to lye for consideration" on March 3d.6 What, if anything, was done about it in the future is unknown by this writer at present.
]This petition shows that Ezekiel was a poor individual living in Dover, and was willing to move to the hinterlands to acquire land in the area of Lake Winnipesaukee. Ezekiel of Lancaster later sold land he owned in Gilmanton, which town is in the area of Winnipesaukee, so they are likely one and the same. Also, there is no other Ezekiel currently accounted for. The fact that he named a daughter Lucy may indicate that he is related to another Dover-area Wallingford "orphan", the Lucy Wallingford who married Meturin Ricker. Both were contemporaries so may be brother and sister. My best guess is that they were either children of Nicholas Wallingford, as Shackford speculates in regards to Ezekiel, or unaccounted for children of John Wallingford and Mary Tuttle. But neither appears provable. If he were a son of John Wallingford and Mary Tuttle one might wonder why his "brother" Ebenezer, in his 1721 will, would have left all of his wearing apparel to be equally divided between his "beloved Brothers" John Wallingford, Thomas Wallingford and James Clements but nothing to Ezekiel.7 But Ezekiel would likely have been a very young man at the time, and not fit for adult clothing.
Ezekiel settled in "Payquage" plantation, now Athol, Mass., in 1734. He was on a list of the first settlers of that town dated 26 June 1734. His lot was on the west side of the river, and the west side of the highway, and may have been lot number ten but the number was difficult to read. The settlement of the new town didn't proceed very well. On 26 May 1740 Ezekiel was one of eight men who signed a petition complaining that only 16 families currently lived in town, despite the promise by the government to settle sixty. "We Labour under great Difficulty's & Discouragements being less able to Carry on the Publick affaires, or to defend our selves in Case of an Indian War", wrote the petitioners. Only a little more than four years later Ezekiel would be killed during just such an Indian War.
Ezekiel fulfilled his duties of proprietorship by settling the land and building a house. On 23 March 1750 proprietor's clerk Abner Lee wrote that "Ezekiel Wallingford fully Complied with the Duty and was Killed by the Indians".
On 9 March 1736 Ezekiel Wallingford of Lancaster sold land in Gilmanton, N.H. to Thomas Poor of Andover, Mass.8 How did he acquire this Gilmanton land? It may be a clue to his parentage.
A fairly recent (1953) history of the town of Athol relates the events surrounding Ezekiel's death in some detail: "It was during these perilous times [King George's War] that Ezekiel Wallingford was killed by the Indians near his 78-acre farm on West Hill. That evening of August 17, 1746 in the west fort, Wallingford heard sounds like bears in his nearby cornfield, and ventured out to drive them away. The noise had been made by the Indians to lure him to sure death. Fully armed, a group of Wallingford's neighbors laid his body the next day in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery, while a band of savages trooped northward to claim the reward paid for an English scalp."
"Jason Babcock, a friend of the Wallingfords, immediately offered assistance to the widow Lidia Wallingford and her five [sic] children. It is easily understood why she made plans to return to Concord, Massachusetts. Within a few weeks Babcock drove the farm stock to Concord, a distance of some 60 miles as the roads were then traveled, and for his services received the sum of £4, o.t. The said stock was comprised of the following described viz: 'One farrow cow, valued at £11; one red heifer coming 3, at £9; one red steer, coming 3 at £7.10.0; one red steer, coming 2 at £5; one red cow, at £10'."
"The records infer that Babcock made a second trip to Concord to accompany the family as there is an added charge of £20, not itemized. On the 10th of the following October the widow Lidia and the children were in Concord with all her belongings including 'Mr. Wallingford's personal wardrobe, bed and bedding, kitchen utensils, etc.' No mention is made of horses or farming tools of any kind..." Babcock himself was soon after killed by the Indians.9
Why the above says there were five children is unknown. Only three are presently accounted for. There is other evidence that they had more than three children, however. On 4 December 1752 Ezekiel's widow Lydia and her new husband Ebenezer Harris petitioned the government for permission to sell lands to pay debts, with any assets remaining to be used for raising the children. It stated that "there was 3 young children left" for Lydia to bring up, "one of which she hath since buried." Given that the three daughters that are presently accounted for in the Lancaster vital records all grew up to be married, there must have been at least one additional child, meaning the Athol History reference to five children may be correct. Ezekiel and Lydia married in 1738 and had their first three children in 1739, 1741 and 1743. There would be time for two more children to be born or conceived before Ezekiel's death at the hands of the Indians in August 1746. |

Jonathan Wallingford
M, b. 7 July 1762, d. 4 or 5 August 1847
This research is a work in progress, taken from sources of varying reliability. The information should be verified before being relied upon.
Birth* | Jonathan Wallingford was born on 7 July 1762 in Rochester, New HampshireG.1,2 |
Marriage* | He married Betsey Bunker, daughter of Francis Bunker and Betsey (?), on 9 July 1812 in Athens, Somerset County, MaineG.1 |
Death* | Jonathan died 4 or 5 August 1847 in Howland, Penobscot County, MaineG.3 |
| Jonathan inherited his father's homestead in Rochester in his 1771 will. While still living in Rochester he enlisted on 3 July 1780 in the militia as part of the New Hampshire Line during the Revolutionary War, serving as a private in Captain Timothy Emerson's Company of militia in Col. Thomas Burdett's Regiment. This group was raised to go to the defense of West Point, and Jonathan was there at the time when Benedict Arnold tried to turn the fort over to the British and his treason was discovered. He was discharged on 26 October 1780.
He moved to Athens, Maine in 1797, where he was enumerated in the 1800 census of "Kinsmans Town so-called" (now Athens).4 The 1810 census finds him still in Athens, living alone, five names away from the family of Francis Bunker from which came his future wife. He was married two years later, two days after his 50th birthday, and had his last child at the age of 715,6.
In the 1820 census of Athens, Jonathan is living with three girls under the age of ten, one girl aged 10-16, and one woman aged 16-26. The latter is likely his wife, the three youngest his daughters Mary, Harriet, and Elizabeth, and the middle child is probably a relative or some kind of domestic help. His occupation was checked in the 'Agriculture' column.
In 1830 he was still in Athens with one son and five daughters.7 Ten years later his Athens household had two sons and four daughters.8 Between 1840 and his death Jonathan and Betsey moved deeper into central Maine to the town of Howland, where he died in 1847. Betsey is found there three years later in the 1850 census living in the family of 35-year-old Daniel T. Bunker, who is presumably a relative, probably a younger brother or nephew. Betsey was aged 54, born in N.H.9 None of the Wallingford children are living with them.
Betsey applied for a bounty land warrant as a Revolutionary War widow at Porter, Maine in 1855. On 7 March 1867 she applied for a pension from Mankato, Minnesota, while living with her married daughter Betsey Durkee.6
On 10 June 1858 Betsey and her son John N. Wallingford, residents of Nicollet County, Minnesota, purchased public lands from the government in the town of Faribault, Minnesota. Betsey's land was in "the North West quarter, of the North West quarter, of election Thirty Two, in Township One hundred and Nine North, of Range Twenty seven West, in the District of lands formerly subject to sale at Winona, now Faribault, Minnesota, containing Forty Acres." Her son's land was also in Faribault, but not continguous.10
Betsey was enumerated in the 1860 census of Mankato, Minnesota. Her son John and family were living in Mankato as well.11 |
