Narrative

John Emery, senior, son of John and Agnes Emery of Romsey,Hants, England, was born in England, 19 Sep 1598; he sailed fromSouthampton, 3 Apr 1635, with his brother Anthony in the shipJames of London, William Cooper, Master, their wives and one ortwo children each probably with them; he landed in Boston, 3June 1635, and went soon after to Newbury where John, senior,had a town grant of half an acre for a house lot. John Emery wasfined 22 December 1637, by the town, twenty shillings forinclosing ground not laid out, or owned by the town, contrary toa town order, and on 1 February 1638, the town granted him thatpart of ground which was already inclosed. He was made freeman 2June 1641, and recorded as one of the ninety-one freeholders ofthe town 2 December 1642; in the same year he was appointed withthree others to make a valuation of all the property in thetown, for the purpose of proportioning each man's share in thenew division. On 16 March 1663, John Emery was presented to theCourt at Ipswich by Henry Jaques, Constable of Newbury, forentertaining travellers and Quakers. 5 May 1663 his presentmentfor entertaining Quakers was referred unto next Court. The nextCourt fined him four pounds, costs and fees for entertainingstrangers. The evidence given in the case was 'yt two menquakers wr entertained very kindly to bed and table & JohnEmmerie shok ym by ye hand and bid ym welcome.' Also, 'that thewitness heard John Emery and his wife say that he hadentertained quakers and that he would not put them from hishouse and used argument for the lawfulness of it.' John Emery inMay, 1663, petitioned the General Court for the remission of hisfine. His petition was signed by the selectmen of the town andfifty of the citizens. The fine was not remitted. He was also prominent in the case of Lieut. Robert Pike,refusing to recognize the authority of the Court to deprive himand his neighbors of the right of petition. In the famouseecelesiastical difficulties John Emery was a member of theWoodman party.10 April 1644 he had a grant from the town of twenty-two acresand five rods being his own and Henry Palmer's portion of'Divident' land in the great field beyond the new town. He wasselectman, 1661; fence viewer, 1666; grand juryman in the sameyear; jury of trials in 1672; appointed to carry votes to Salemin 1676. John Emery made his will 1 May 1680, proved 27 November 1683, inwhich he mentions his age as eighty-three years. The inventoryof his estate was taken in the same day, amounting to 263poinds, 11 shillings.Although the printed Newbury VR may give the1650 date for JohnEMERY's second marriage, see TAG 17: 96-9 (1940-41) whereClarence A. Torrey (the author of New England Marriages Prior to1700) presents evidence for a 29 Oct 1647 marriage date vs otherpossibilities.The name of his first wife is often given as "Mary" based onRufus Emery's book, but her name has recently been proven to be-Alice- GRANTHAM, TAG 65:211-13 (Oct 1990).Massachusetts and Maine Families in the Ancetry of WalterGoodwin Davis, Walter. G. Davis, Genealogical Publishing Co.,Baltimore MD 1996. vol 1 pp 521-531 has what is probably thebest accepted short account of John EMERY.
