Descendants of William Learned

Descendants of William Learned Generation No. 1 1. WILLIAM 1 LEARNED 1,2,3 was born 01 Jan 1589/90 in Bermondsey, Surrey, England 4, and died 01 Mar 1645/46 in Bermondsey, Surrey, England 5. He married GOODITH GILMAN 6,7,8. She was born 1594 in Bremondsey, Surrey, England 9, and died 24 Jun 1661 in Malden, Essex, MA 9. Notes for WILLIAM LEARNED: Selected excerpts from: The Learned Family, compiled by William Law Learned in part from the papers of the late Joseph Gay Eaton Learned, Joel Munsell's Sons, 1882. "WILLIAM LEARNED1. The first admission to the present First church of Charlestown was, according to its records, as follows: "1632, 10 mo., day 6, William Learned and Goodith, his wife, were admitted." (N. E. H. & G. Reg., vol. xxxiii, page 191). It has been said, but whether upon good authority is not known, that William Learned came over in Feb., 1624. But this seems improbable, since his son Isaac was born that month, and his daughter Mary was buried in England, July, 1625. In 1634, May 14th, he was admitted freeman. His name appears as one of the signatures to the town order for the appointment of eleven selectmen, February 13, 1634-1635. (Frothingham's Charlestown, p. 50.) On Feb. 13, 1635-6, he was appointed a selectman. About this time he is mentioned with twenty-eight others as having "willingly surrendered for the good of the town part of their land on Mystic side." In 1640 a movement was on foot to settle Woburn. The first meeting for the purpose was held at the house of Mr. Thomas Greene, December 18th; and town orders were there signed by thirty-two persons, and among them by William Learned, (spelled by the clerk Lernedt). He was one of the seven who, the 14th of August, 1642, formed the first church of Woburn, (Woburn town records; Sewall's Woburn, p. 20; Johnson's Wonder Working Prov., p 17.) On the 24th of November, it is recorded that he freely gave up his lot for the use of the town, which gave it to Thomas Richardson, and agreed to give to William Learned the like for quantity and quality. It was afterwards ordered that he should have seventy-two acres laid out to his son Isaac, in recompense for the sixty-six which he had thus given. On the 13th of April, 1643, he was chosen constable and one of the selectmen; and again February 9, 1644-5. Some additional land was given him in Sept., 1645. Another order, two months later, says that he was to have six acres and a half for a house lot and farm in meadow, and the residence, being sixty acres, "the one-halfe in forest field and the other halfe in playne field." He died March 1, 1646, two days before the selectmen were chosen for the third term; and thus he held the offices of selectman and constable at his death. (Qu. 1646-7; as he is named in the town rate, 22d of 10 mo. 1646.) Judging from the age of his daughter, Sarah, he must have been born as early as 1590; and would thereefor have been at least 56 at his death. He left a widow who had an annuity. On the 4th of October, 1648, his son "Isack Lerned was discharged of his accompt consarning his father, who, deseased, constable." The account had been settled in part, Sept. 26. The following is from: Genealogies of the Families and Descendants of the Early Settlers of Watertown, Massachusetts, 1855 by Henry Bond. "LEARNED (Lernot, Larned, Larnit, &c.) WILLIAM LEARNED,(*) was admitted freeman, May 14, 1634, and his name, and that of his wife GOODETH [? Judith, or good wife], are the first two on the list of members of the present First Church, of Charlestown. "1632, 10

mo., day 6, William Learned and Goodeth, his wife, were admitted." The following extract from the town records of Charlestown. is an evidence of how highly he was esteemed for his intelligence and virtue: "1638, 26, 2d month, Mr. Increase Nowell, Mr. Zachariah Sims, Mr. John Green, Mr. John Harvard, Left. Ralph Sprague, and William Learned, were desired to consider of some things tending towards a body of Lawes." Records, p. 20. He was a subscriber to the town orders for Woburn, drawn up at Charlestown, Dec. 18, 1640; was one of the seven original members of the church in Woburn, which was gathered, Aug. 14, 1642-3; was one of the first board of Selectmen, chosen Ap. 13, 1644, and was re-elected the following year. He was also elected constable (who was in those days the collector of taxes), for the years, 1644 and '45. He d. in Woburn, Mar. 1, 1645-6, two days before the third election of town officers. He left a wid., who had an annuity during her widowhood. His accounts, as collector, were in part settled by his son Isaac, Sept. 29, 1646, and finally settled, Oct. 4, 1648. The name (Learned), has been varied much by the bad orthography of early times, as Lerned, Lernot, Larned, Larnit, &c., and many of his descendants now write it, Larned."

"The first admission to the present First church of Charlestown was, according to its records, as follows: "1632, 10 mo., day 6, William Learned and Goodith, his wife, were admitted." (N. E. H. & G. Reg., vol. xxxiii, page 191). This name Goodith, is said by Rev. Samuel Sewall to be, not a corrupt spelling of Judith, but an old English name, from the Saxon, Goditha. It was common at that time. In one instance, at least, about this period a child, baptised Goodith, was, however, always called Judith. (Col. Joseph L. Chester.)"

CAPTAIN ISAAC 2 LEARNED (WILLIAM 1 ) 37 was born Abt. 25 Feb 1623/24 in Bermondsey, Surry, London, England 37, and died 27 Nov 1657 in Chelmsford, Middlesex, MA 38. He married MARY STEARNS 39 09 Jul 1646 40, daughter of ISAAC STEARNS and MARY BARKER. She was born 26 Jan 1625/26 in Watertown, Middlesex, Mass, England 41, and died 21 Dec 1663 in Chelmsford, Middlesex, MA 41. Notes for CAPTAIN ISAAC LEARNED: From: The Learned Family, compiled by William Law Learned in part from the papers of the late Joseph Gay Eaton Learned, Joel Munsell's Sons, 1882. "ISAAC3 (William1), was born Feb. 25, 1623, in Bermondsey parish, county Surrey, England, and probably came with his father to this country, when about seven or eight years old. He probably went with his father, when about seventeen or eighteen years old, from Charlestown to Woburn. He married, at Woburn, July 9, 1646, Mary, daughter of Isaac Sternes, of Watertown, who was born in England and bapt. Jan. 26, 1626, in the parish of Nayland, Suffolk. April 2, 1652, he sold his house and lands in Woburn to Bartholomew Pierson, of Watertown, and removed to Chelmsford, where he died, Nov. 27, 1657. (County records say Dec. 4.) His inventory, dated Dec. 7, 1657, amounted to œ187 18s. 6d. April 6, 1658, administration was granted to widow Mary and her father, Isaac Sterne. Estate was indebted to Widow Learnett œ3 per annum during widowhood. The record of his marriage is in the Woburn records, although his wife came from Watertown. Lands were repeatedly laid out for him in Woburn, both before and after his father's death. The last time his name appears in the records is when he was appointed, Jan. 4, 1651-2, on a committee to lay out a drift way for cattle, etc., through Henry Brock's lot, near Horn pond.

He was chosen one of the selectmen of Chelmsford, Dec. 22, 1654; sergeant of the (train) band March 24, 1656; a committee to lay out certain meadow lands, Jan. 11, 1656. App. Comm to decide small cases at Chelmsford. In the office of the Secretary of State, Boston, vol. 112, p. 80, is a petition signed by him for a grant of additional land to Chelmsford, dated May 7, 1656. A petition from Woburn, signed by him, "Isaac Larnitt," and by others, is printed in Mass. Hist. Coll., 3d series, vol. i, p. 38 to 45; in which the petitioners remonstrate against an order forbidding any person to undertake a constant course of preaching, or prophesying, without the approbation of the elders of the four next churches or of the County Court. The Chelmsford records contain several grants of land to him. At page 162 is a record of such land, including house lot, upland and meadow, purporting to have been originally granted January 26, 1659, and attested as follows: "A true copy of the original in Town Book, page 58, and here entered this 20th of June, 1705;" also on the same page a copy of a similar grant of thirty acres, originally made Oct, 24, 1664. Feb. 9, 1708, thirty acres of land, of the heirs of Isaac Larned, apparently the same last mentioned, laid out at further Tadmuck, were exchanged for another tract (page 147). At page 164 aer given the bounds of the meadow of Isaac Larnard lying at Great Tadmuck. At page 165 the renewal of the bounds between lot of Isaac Larned and Joseph Parker, lying in the pine plain near the Crain meadow, dated January 29, 1711, recorded Feb. 1, 1711. Under date of Nov. 24, 1665, John Parker, Isaac Learned and Thomas Chamberline, "sometime inhabitants of Woburn," planters, sell to George Farley, of Billerica, sundry parcels of land in Billerica, which they bought of Thomas Dudley, Esq., dec'd. But this deed is not executed by Isaac Learned. (Register of Deeds, Middlesex, vol. iii, p. 181.) His widow, Mary, was married to John Burg, late of Weymouth, June 7, 1662, by Capt. Johnson, of Woburn. (Records of Chelmsford.) The proposed division of Isaac Learned's estate, April 1, 1662, signed by Mary Learned and Isaac Sterne, had been witnessed by John Burg. (Middlesex Court Files, p. 141 1/2.) April 7, 1664, the court allowed the division of the estate between John Burg and the children of Isaac Learned. (id. vol. 2,p. 5), and following this is an "inventory of the estate belonging to Mary Lernet, widow, now in the hands of John Burg, of Chelmsford," her surviving husband, dated Dec. 21, 1663, and amounting to œ222. She must, therefore, have died within eighteen months after her second marriage. 1673, Sept. 23, there was a division of the estate of Isaac Learned."

Notes for DEACON BENONI LEARNED: From: The Learned Family, compiled by William Law Learned in part from the papers of the late Joseph Gay Eaton Learned, Joel Munsell's Sons, 1882. "BENONI3 (Isaac2, William1), probably so named because he was born on the day of his father's death or within a day or two of that event; m., at Sherborn, June 18, 1680, Mary Fanning, dau. of Thomas and Elizabeth (Daniel) Fanning, b. Oct. 27, 1662, who d. Oct. 14, 1688, in childbirth, and he m. second Sarah Wright, of Sudbury, who was received to the church (1690.) She d. Jan'y 25, 1736-7. He was the second deacon of the church, and was constable 1682; selectman, 1690, 1693, 1695, 1697, 1700, 1710. He was early in Sherborn and resided where the late Dr. Wythe resided. He is one of the signers to a petition for the settlement of difficulties in regard to the meeting house, to enable the people to settle Mr. Daniel Gookin, Oct. 13, 1680. (Minutes Gen. Court, vol. 112, p. 317.) In 1699, he was on a committee for laying out lots, and had lots assigned to him; was rated 1686 for the Indian title, and drew 138 acres of land in Douglas; twelve years, selectman, one year, representative. One of the signers of agreement for government of Sherborn 1679, on committee for repairing meeting house 1706, with Corp. Isaac Learned and others.

In Judge Sewall's Journal under date of Wednesday, Apr. 14, 1703, Deacon Learned is mentioned as with him while he "renewed the bounds of the farm Moses Adams lives on." His name is signed to an agreement relative to lands in Bogestow, occurring in Sherborn records of births, 1688-9. "The excellent Deacon Benoni Learned," says Rev. Mr. Morse, "served Sherborn as treasurer, selectman, representative in the general court, and for a long period in his early history his name is conspicuous, and it is evident that he was a man of sound and consistent piety." He died April 10th, 1738. His will, written Jan'y 12, 1736-7, proved April, 1738, mentions his wife Sarah; son Edward, heirs of son Thomas; grandson Benjamin Bond, son of daughter Mary; daughter Hannah, wife of James Leland; daughter Sarah, wife of Isaac Kendall; daughter Elizabeth, wife of Timothy Leland; daughter Tabitha Dewing's heirs; daughter Abigail; daughter Thankful; daughter Bathsheba, wife of Josiah Hendee. Edward was executor. No mention is made of a widow in the administration papers. His wife seems to have died a few days after the will was executed. Dr. Bond says she survived her husband; perhaps his reason for this statement is because she is named in the will. His second wife was a dau. of Capt. Edward Wright of Sudbury, and with others released her rights in her father's estate to her brother Samuel. June 15, 1708 Rec. of Deeds Midd. XVI. 491."

His grandson Jonathan (1754-1811) sent two sons to Harvard College and they were the first Fays in the roll of Harvard Alumni; Dr. Nahum Fay was one of the earliest graduates of the Harvard Medical School; his older brother Jonathan studied law, settled at Concord, Mass., and rose to marked success in his profession; the latter's son, Samuel Prescott Phillips Fay (1778-1856), was probate Judge of Middlesex Co. for 35 years and served on the Board of Overseers of Harvard College for 28 years; two of the latter's sons were Harvard graduates, Richard Sullivan Fay in 1825 and Rev. Charles Fay in 1829, while a third son, Joseph Story Fay (1812-1897), became widely known as an expert in Forestry and Floriculture by his estate in Woods Holl, Mass. A son of Rev. Charles Fay graduated at Harvard in 1869, and a grandson of R. S. Fay in 1881, while a number of J.S. Fay's descendants have been students at our oldest college. One of the scholarships annually awarded at Radcliff College bears the name of Capt. Jonathan Fay of Westboro. Laura Matilda Fay and Rose Emily Fay, daughters of Rev. Charles Fay were gifted women who contributed many of the critical notices published in the New York and Chicago Journals; Rose was well known in

This is from a chapter entitled "Librarians of Harvard College" in Library of Harvard University Bibliographical Contributions edited by Justin Winsor, 1897. "Jonathan Moore was born at Oxford, Mass., 7 July, 1769, the son of Captain Elijah and Dorothy (Learned) Moore. The father was for twenty-five years an inn-keeper of the town and a public spirited citizen. Jonathan graduated at Harvard in 1761, and obtained his A.M. in three years. He taught Greek and Hebrew for a time, and received from Yale an honorary A.M. in 1765. In September 1767, he became Librarian at Harvard, but at the end of the college year accepted a call to the church at Rochester (now Marion) Mass., where he was ordained 7 September, 1768. On the 1th of October following he married Susanna Parkman. He soon had many warm followers in his ministry but his changing theological views at last caused his separation from the church in 1792. A number of his parishioners withdrew with him and held services together for several years at his house. A memorandum by a nephew in 1808 would seem to indicate that he became a Baptist minister. On the death of his first wife Mr. Moore married Anna Hammond of Newport, R.I, He died at home in Rochester, 20 April, 1814, having had five children. The historian of the town says, "He was of a social temperament and jocose in Manner."

NAHUM FAY: From Brookline Jubilee by John Pierce, 1847. "There have been ten Presidents of the United States, sox of whom have gone to their final account. Washington;s second term of service in the Presidency closed in the month of my ordination,* *He made his last visit to Boston, Saturday, 24 October 1789, the autumn after his Inauguration to the Presidency, the only time I was ever privileged to see him. Well do I remember the circumstances of his entry into our neighboring capital. The day was quite blustering. He rode on an elegant white horse, with his suite. He was subjected to the inconvenience of waiting a length of time, on horseback, on the Neck, for the Town and State authorities, who were assembled in the Council Chamber of the Old State House, to determine, which should receive him, or pay him the first honors. On arriving at the State House, he was conducted to a temporary projection erected over the west door, where he with his suite was stationed. There were three arches, which extended over, what was then Cornhill, now Washington street. On the apex of the middle arch, stood a company of singers, headed by Dr. Nahum Fay, who sand an Ide prepared for the occasion, with such effect, as to draw tears from the eyes of the hero, who was not accustomed to weep on the field of battle. It is said, that Mr. Webb, of Charleston, is the only survivor of the little band, who sang his welcome. Owing to the exposures of that day, colds became very prevalent, which the common people denominated the Washington cold; but physicians called it the Influenza, probably for the first time the term was ever used in this region." From the Eastern Argus (Portland, Maine), September 20, 1804. "In Baltimore, fuddenly, Nahum Fay, M D of Bofton (Ma??ia) - a gentleman, (fays a Baltimore paper) whofe fuavity of manners, intelligent mind, extenfive education, and native benevolence of heart, juftly acquired him the efteem and regard of his acquaintance. While humanity has a tear, or friendfris a figh, the lofs of Dr. Fay will not remain unregretted." Notes for SARAH PUTNAM: From the Massachusetts Mercury (Boston, MA). March 20, 1798 - "DIED On Friday, Mrs Sarah Fay, age 36, wife of Mr. Nahum Fay. Her funeral will be from his dwelling houfe, near the old North-Square, this afternoon, at 4 o'clock, which her friends and relations are invited to attend."

He was born 1750, and died 1805 370. Notes for DR. STEPHEN BARTON, SR: From the Life of Clara Barton by Percy H. Epler, 1917. "Stephen Barton was a Physician. His generosity forbade him to present his bills to patients, and though a good practitioner, he was unable to make a living from the profession. In 1764 he settled at Oxford Center, and engaged in trading, becoming in time the landlord of the old Tavern. IN 1776 he removed to Windson, Maine, with his sons, but returned to Oxford in 1790 and established a mechanical shop. He died in Main in 1805. One of his sons was Stephen Barton, born August 18, 1774. This was the father of Clara Barton."

Notes for ELIJAH MOORE BARTON: From Collections and Proceedings of the Maine Historical Society, 1890. "Early in the present century, much trouble arose in portions of the country between the Kennebec and Penobscot rivers, by a class of people called squatters; "men who," to quote the language of the late John H. Shepard, esq., "either without color or title, or under implied grants from pretended agents of speculators, have entered upon lots, cleared them up, built houses and raised families. Numerous lawsuits, ejectments and quarrels were the result. Many of these settlers believed that 'the higher law' - the law of consequences - justified any measures, even the shedding of blood, in defense of their clearings against the proprietors, and combinations for resistance were formed." The difficulties culminated, in 1809, in the murder of Paul Chadwick, while assisting a surveyor in Malta, now Windsor. He was waylaid and shot by an armed party consisting of Eljah Barton and others, disguised as Indians. Eight of their number, including Barton, were arrested, and lodge in Augusta jail. Their rescue was attempted, and the militia was called out for protection. At the October term of the Supreme Court, the prisoners were indicted for murder, and a special session for the trial was held during that month. Chief Justice Sedgwick and Associate Judges Sewall, Thacher and Parker were present. Samuel S. Wilde of Hallowell and Prentiss Mellen of Portland were engaged in defense, while Daniel Davis, solicitor general, appeared for the government. The defendants elected to be tried together. The trial occupied ten days, and forty-four witnesses were examined. The fact of guilt was proved beyond any reasonable doubt, at least against some of the prisoners. All of them had been recognized in Indian disguise, on the afternoon of the murder, near the place where it was committed. Seven voluntarily confessed their participation in the crime. Two of their number were identified in the dying declaration of the deceased. Judge Parker charged the jury, who, after being out two days, to the surprise of the court, bar and spectators, returned a verdict of not guilty. "Higher Law" had prevailed. The court made some pertinent and judicious comments upon the extreme danger of setting aside the law of the land, and breaking down the partition walls between right and wrong; remarking that "the last prayer of a good citizen should be that the discreet integrity of jurymen may be as well preserved from the contaminating influence of the threats or patronage of the great, as from the whimsical misguided current of public opinion. 34. v.
