THIRD GENERATION IN AMERICA |
45. ELEAZER 3 DUNHAM (Joseph 2 John 1), born in Plymouth say 1659. [1] There is no death record and no probate for Eleazer, but he died after 24 September 1713 (license to sell liquor) and probably after 17 March 1719/20. [2] Eleazer married say 1682 BATHSHEBA WHISTON [3] daughter of John and Susanna (Hanford) Whiston. [4] Bathsheba was baptized 1 July 1660 in Scituate. She died after March 1740/1 when a suit brought by Samuel Kempton for assistance in the support of his aged mother-in-law, Bathshua Donham, widow, was settled.
Eleazer Dunham was called “of Plymouth,” but his property was actually located very near or adjacent to his brother Nathaniel Dunham who lived in Plympton. The reason for this is that when the line was drawn separating the two towns, Eleazer’s property actually fell within the Plymouth bounds while that of the other family members fell within Plympton. [6] Eleazer and his brother Nathaniel, were left property “at Wellingsly” by their grandfather Nathaniel Morton in 1685. They probably soon sold this inheritance to move to the Plympton area where they are later found. Eleazer Dunham (and his father Joseph 2) were witnesses to the prenuptial agreement between Persis 2 (Dunham) Pratt, and Jonathan 2 Shaw in August 1683. [7] The three following Plymouth Colony Court Records pertaining to Eleazer Dunham demonstrate one way he earned his livelihood.
