  • Note:
    John Whitmarsh the immigrant ancestor of all Whitmarsh family in America. About 20th March 1635 John, Alice & their children, John, James, Jane, Onesephorus, Richard & Nicholas set sail from Weymouth, England in Reverend Joseph Hull's Company.

    Settled & received land grants in Weymouth, Mass. His land grants included '"two acres upon the plain...three acres upon King Oak Hill...two acres in the west field" besides other lots.

    On 8 JUL 1635, the General Court of Massachusetts passed an order permitting Reverend Joseph Hull's company of twenty-one families to settle at Wessaguscus, which was incorporated under the name of Weymouth, 2nd September 1635.

    The family is given in the passenger list as follows:

    "Jno. Whitmarsk aged 39 years,
    Alice Whitmarke his Wife aged 35 yeare,
    Jms Whitmarcke his sonne aged 11 yeare,
    Jane his daughter aged 7 yeare,
    Onseph Whitmarke his sonne aged 5 yeare,
    Rich: Whytemark his sonne aged 2 Yeare."

    Nicholas, Simon and John are not included. It is believed that they were older sons who came over after the family was established here. There is a description of lands of Nicholas, Richard, Onesiphorous and Simon, mentioning "nine acres in the westerneck first given to their father, John Whitmarsh, deceased." This proves the existence of two sons, Nicholas and Simon, not mentioned in the passenger list. Also in the description of John Harding's land mention is made of "Halfe an acre of fresh marsh which he gave to John Whitmarsh sonn of the aforesaid John Whitmarsh." This establishes the fact that John Whitmarsh, immigrant, had a son John.
