      "QUIMBY, or QUINBY, ...(10097i_a) ROBERT, Salisbury 1663, had (10097i_a1) Lydia, b. 22 Jan. 1658; (10097i_a2) William, 11 June 1660; John, 7 Sept. 1665; and (10097i_a5) Thomas, 8 Feb. 1668; and prob. d. 1677. Lydia m. 10 Apr. 1674, (10097i_a1[1]) William Holdridge."
      -- James Savage, op. cit.

  • ii. (5048) William Quimby

    "QUIMBY, or QUINBY, ...(10097ii) WILLIAM, Amesbury, perhaps br. perhaps s. of the preced. [(10097i_a) Robert] took o. of fidel. 20 Dec. 1677."
    -- James Savage, op. cit.

NOTE: No "Anne Quimby" was found among the descendants of (10096) Thomas of Farnham, other than those of (5048) William.

" Barnabas Lamson, Planter, of Salisbury, taxed in 1652, bought and sold land there in 1654. He that year was convicted by the Norfolk Court of fornication with Elizabeth Osgood. He gave bonds to appear and be whipped, and also to maintain the child which should be born; but the bonds were forfeited. If Elizabeth Osgood should keep her child, and secure the town, she was to have the remainder of Barnabas Lamson 's estate. She was also to appear and be whipped, her father Wm. Osgood being the bondsman for her appearance.

"Robert and Elizabeth were attacked in 1677 by the Indian, Symon, who was thought to be a friend of the family. Robert was killed and Elizabeth wounded and left for dead. Elizabeth was appointed administrator of the estate on 10/9/1677; Inventory 8/27/1677; Robert Quinby was administrator; the estate was divided in1700."

-- "Old Families of Salisbury and Amesbury" by David W. Hoyt p.23 c/o http://www.spoonergen.com/res/resn33.htm

"The arms of the QUINBY family are: Argent, two bars sable in chief a proper Cornish chough. Crest: A Cornish chough in arms.

"The recent researches of Henry Cole QUINBY Esq., of New York City, have untangled many perplexing snarls regarding the ancestry of this family. There is no discoverable authority for the statement that Thomas QUINBY was the founder of the family in America. There is ground for a reasonable supposition that Robert and William QUINBY, who settled about the same time in New England, the former in Norfolk county, Massachusetts, the latter in Connecticut, were related, probably brothers, but nothing has thus far been found to establish any relationship between them."

Sometimes a christening date of 23 Mar 1623 comes up for (10097i_a) Robert. This no doubt comes from the online records of Boston, Lincolnshire (IGI). Apparently no satisfactory baptismal record for (5048) William could be found there, because William is usually posted as having come from Farnham, Surrey (where perhaps an ancient line exists?). Some researchers have "corrected" this mismatch by having Robert born in Surrey, as the son of William, then having his (unnamed) mother race up to Lincolnshire to have him baptized! This, in itself, ought to be convincing proof that nobody yet knows who the parents of either Quimby patriarch were. I am posting them here as uncle and nephew (as some early historians guessed them to be), simply because, having arrived in America on the same ship at the same time, they stand a good chance of being somehow related :-)

"General Notes [(20164) Richard Toothill]:

"Of Woodford, Co Northampton, b abt 1530, m (20165) Elizabeth_.. Wayne Barnes identifies her as Elizabeth Lyncoln. No source. Price has he d 1587/88 Woodford. Sam has he d 1589/90 in Peterborough. Jacobus cited his will for March 1589 as the date of his death. Possibly more than one Richard Toothill, but the Puritan dating system makes for the sort of confusion seen here. Jacobus has him supervised will of Richard Beare of Woodford, 3 Nov 1579, witness will of Elizabeth Lyncoln, 1556. At least we know that there were Lyncolns around and the Tuttles had close ties to them; they were probably closely related to the Tuttle family in some way."

"I have Isabel Wells daughter of (20166) John, who was the mother of (10083v) William tuttle. Any further info on her father or mother would be apreciated. I keep running into websites that link her with the De Welles and Plantagenet families of nobility and I don't see any REAL evidence of this."

"Of (10082) Simon it says: "Symon Tootill or Towtills of Ringstead, co Northampton, born say 1560, buried at Ringstead, 15 June 1630; married Isabel Wells, born about 1565, daughter of John Wells of Ringstead, who mentioned her in his will in 1618.

"The will of John Wells also named all four of his Tuttell grandsons. Symon was supervisor of the will of Matthew Harris of Woodford, 5 Nov 1600. His own will was proved 1630 at Northampton.. His widow accompanied her sons on the "Planter" in 1635, but no record of her has been seen in this country, and probably she did not long survive." Then lists their ch... On p. 6: There is further discussion concerning the researchers lack of work on the will of Symon Tootill while studying that of his wife's fa. John Wells. It seems the wills are very difficult to read and a lady in SLC did produce typewritten copies of trans. of the wills. More info, but not on direct lines."
