Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Rebecca Town was born 21 Feb 1621, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England; was christened 21 Feb 1621, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England; died 19 Jul 1692, Salem Village, Essex County, Massachusetts; was buried Abt 19 Jul 1692, Salem Village, Essex County, Massachusetts.

    Notes:

    Rebecca was in the eyes of those who knew her well the very essence of what a Puritan mother should be. Deeply pious, she was so steeped in Scripture that the country roughness of her speech - she had a Chaucerian fondness for triple negatives - was often shot through with a poetical Scriptural quality. It was not merely a matter of lugging in texts, but a deep, instinctive poetry of
    feeling that overflowed into her simple, pregnant speech. When Rebecca spoke it was as if one of the grand women of the Old Testament were speaking Naomi or Ruth amid alien corn (Rebecca herself remembered her birthplace, Yarmouth, England), or the beloved Rachel, or indeed her own namesake.

    In her home life she had resembled the wise woman of Proverbs, and her children she had reared with loving devotion to both their spiritual and temporal welfare. Now in her old age they rose up and called her blessed, not only her four sons and four daughters, but what perhaps the super most tribute, her three sons-in-law and four daughters-in-law.

    This is not to say that she was altogether a saint. Even the Bible women, as anyone can discover by examining Scripture closely, had their off days. The years had made Rebecca hard of hearing and infirm; when she was ill and did not clearly understand what was said to her, she could sometimes lose her temper.

    Rebecca was one of 19 hanged as witches in the infamous Salem Witch Trials. Her trial is most often cited for the injustice of this trying period. Recent evidence indicates the accusers were suffering from ergot poisoning.

    The night of the hanging, her family secretly removed her body from a mass grave to their family farm.

    Notes:

    Of Salem and Framingham.
    ----------
    Reference:
    "A Genealogy of the Nurse Family for Five Generations", 1892, John D. Ames, p
    100.

    According to the (NOURSE) NURSE family records, there are three John (NOURSE)
    NURSE's. (1) John d.1719 m.1
    Nov 1672, Elizabeth SMITH b.5 Jun 1662 d.22 Oct 1683. dau of John SMITH. (2.)
    John Jr. d.1719 m.17 Aug 1677
    Elizabeth VERY d.1677 dau of Samuel & Alice VERY. (3) John Jr. b.12 Oct 1673
    m.1st Elizabeth GALE 01 Jun 1678
    dau of John and Elizabeth SPRING. 2nd Elizabeth ?.

    John (NOURSE) NURSE (3) is supposedly son of John and Elizabeth (NOURSE) NURSE
    of SALEM, MA and John (NOURSE)
    NURSE (1) and (2) are supposedly sons of Francis (NOURSE) NURSE and Rebecca
    TOWNIE of Salem.

    There is also a fourth John (NOURSE) NURSE b. 27 Aug 1701 d. 2 Aug 1785 m.
    Bathsheba RUGG b.26 Oct 1703 d.24
    Jul 1792 of FARMINGHAM, MA.

    Children of Francis & Rebecca (NOURSE) NURSE, are listed as John b. 1719, John
    Jr. b.1719, Rebecca m. 15
    April 1669 to Tleomas Preson, Samuel m.15 Apr 1669 to Elizabeth SMITH., Mary
    m.25 Oct 1678 to John Farbell
    d.1715; Francis b. 3 Feb 1661 d. 5 fEB 1716 m.Sarah; Sarah m. Jul 1700,
    Michael BOWDEN; Benjamin m. 1st
    Fhoneagnil JAMESON 16 Feb 1718 & 2nd Elizabeth MORSE, a widow.

    I am not sure how these John's are really related but I believe Francis &
    Rebecca (NOURSE) NURSE are the
    parents of John (NOURSE) NURSE m. 1672 to Elizabeth SMITH who in turn are
    parents to John Jr. (NOURSE) NURSE
    m. to Elizabeth Gale SPRING who in turn are parents to John (NOURSE) NURSE born
    27 Aug 1701.

    The (NOURSE) NURSE records also show (3) John Jr. m. to another Elizabeth.
