Latest revision as of 20:38, 13 June 2022

Status summary

Completed as of May 6, 2021:

  • Recruiting additional matrilineal (direct female-line) Hester Dewsbury descendants for mtDNA testing - anyone interested in submitting their DNA for testing should contact Raymond T. Wing (email: wing.genealogist AT gmail DOT com)

Still to do as of February 28, 2021

  • Full mtDNA testing multiple matrilineal Hester Dewsbury descendants to firmly place family clade as well as discover any subclades unique to descendants lines

Biography

First Generation

Hester/Esther Dewsbury's origins are unknown. She was married Plymouth 19 Dec 1634 to Phillip Delano and they had six children: Mary (c1635), Phillip (c1637), Thomas (c1639), Esther (c1641), John (c1644) and Jonathan (c1648)

Abraham Peirce "Junr" testified in Plymouth Court on 1 Oct 1661 where he was guilty of spreading a malicious false rumor that Rebecca Alden and Hester Delano were both with child.[3] This provides a contemporary record for the existance of a daughter Hester/Esther. No other Hester/Esther has been found in any colony records, so it is assumed she identical to the following: Hester/Esther married twice, first about 1662 to Samuel Sampson and second after 3 Jul 1678 John Soule. By her first husband, Esther had three children: Samuel (c1670), Mary (c1673) and Ichabod (c1675). By her second husband she had three more children: Joseph (1679), Josiah and Joshua (1681).

  1. Some sources state she had a son, Daniel, born about 1656. Even if he existed, he would have died young as Jonathan Dunham had a son Daniel by his second wife.
  2. A report by the Henry Samson Kindred organization gave a birth Duxbury 6 Mar 1640, from her age (95 years 6 mos., 6 days) on her gravestone. Anderson's Great Migration Begins (Addendum III:2090) gives a birth date of about 1641.
  3. Plymouth Colony Records, vol. III (Court Orders):7.

DNA results TBD

Previous mtDNA testing

We currently do not know of any mtDNA descendants of Hester/Esther Dewsbury who have taken a full mtDNA test.

Further needed testing

We need matrilineal (direct female-line) Hester Dewsbury descendants to mtDNA test and publish their results.
