• Notes

  Moses Rowley I was born about 1629, probably in England, to English immigrant, and early Planter, Henry Rowley. Henry and his wife Sarah, with three young children, including Moses, emigrated to the Massachusetts Bay Colony about 1632, sailing from England on the ship, "Charles." Moses Rowley I's mother was Henry's first wife, Sarah Palmer, daughter of William Palmer of Duxbury, as Moses is mentioned in his grandfather, William Palmer's, Will, in 1637. Grandfather Palmer left Moses, by then a young man, a cow out of his estate. After working for two years as a Planter at Plymouth Colony, Henry and Sarah moved their family to Scituate in 1634, where they were neighbors to Reverend John Lothrop, and joined his Congregation there. Henry and Sarah's family moved to Barnstable with Reverend Lothrop and other Scituate neighbors in 1638. Moses Rowley I married on 22 April 1652, in Barnstable, to Elizabeth Fuller, the daughter of Captain Matthew Fuller, and granddaughter of Edward Fuller, one of the Mayflower Pilgrims. Moses I and Elizabeth Fuller Rowley had eleven children, all born in Barnstable: 1- Mary Rowley, b. 1653, m. John Weeks; 2- Moses Rowley II, b. 1654, m. (1) Mary (Fletcher); (2) Mary Crippen (daughter of Thomas Crippen and Frances Bray); 3- unnamed daughter, b. about 1656, d. 1682; 4- Shubael Rowley, b. 1660, m. Catherine Crippen (sister of Mary Crippen, above); 5- Mehetable Rowley, b. 1660 (twin to Shubael, above), m. John Fuller (son of Samuel Fuller and Jane Lathrop); 6- Sarah Rowley, b. 1662; 7- Nathan Rowley, b. about 1664, m. Mercy Hatch (b. 1667, daughter of Jonathan and Sarah Rowley Hatch); 8- Aaron Rowley, b. 1666, m. Mary Weeks; 9- Elizabeth Rowley, b. about 1667, m. William Lucas; 10- John Rowley, b. 1667; 11- Matthew Rowley, b. about 1669. In 1657, Moses Rowley I took the Freeman's Oath at Barnstable, Massachusetts. In 1670, Moses Rowley I was included on Barnstable's list of Freemen and Voters. On 3 June 1673, and again on 3 June 1679, Moses Rowley I was named as a member of "The Grand Enquest" which was a special jury of Freemen of the Colony. On 23 July 1677, Moses Rowley I was assigned a Lot by Falmouth, Barnstable, Massachusetts, when lands in the vicinity of Woods Holl were divided into sixty acres upland to a share, with meadows. Two years later, in 1679, Moses Rowley I obtained land in Falmouth, "between Hog Island Harbor on the bay, and Five-mile river on the east." In 1685, Moses Rowley I bought land in East Falmouth. On 2 March 1685, while acting in his duties as an assistant to the Town Constable, Moses Rowley I received a wound to the head, by Christopher Gifford, who was later fined by the General Court. On 24 June 1690, Moses Rowley I decided to move to Barnstable, and took the Oath of a Freeman at the General Court held at Barnstable. A year later, Moses Rowley I moved to an area originally known as "Quamquisset" Harbor, and "took lands and settled here" "one mile north of Woods Holl on Buzzards Bay." From 1692-1735, Moses Rowley I served in the General Court as "third deputy from Falmouth to the colonial legislature." On 3 May 1692, Moses Rowley I bought 60 acres of land from Jonathan Gilbert. At the age of about 75, Moses Rowley I wrote a Will, filed on 16 August 1704, in Hartford, Connecticut. Moses Rowley I died on 8 March 1705, in East Haddam Connecticut. In the Will of Moses Rowley I, he states [original spelling included]: “The Last will and Testament of Moses Rowley Sen’r of east Haddam in the county of Hartford in Colleny of Connecticut in new Ingland Wittneseth.” “In the name of god. Amen. Whereas I Moses Rowlee being weak of body but through gods good hand upon me at this present writing in perfect memory and understanding doe make and ordain this as my last will and testament.” “Imprimus: I doe give and bequeath my soul unto god in the name, meritts and mediation of the lord Jesus Christ in whose Righteousness I hope to be accepted with the father.” “And my body to Christian burial as my executors shall see meet hoping for a glorious Resurrection at the last and great day.” “As for the portion of this worlds goods that god [hath] given and continued to me my will is that my Just Depts being paid the Remainder to be disposed of as followeth: as for the Rest of my children I have done what hath been with me and now I have not expectation of being any more capable to help myself wherefore I doe give and bequeath my land unto my sonn Moses Rowlee [II] that is to say my half of the lott I now live upon (the other half I have given all Ready to my son Matthew [Rowley]) to be equally devided between my sons Moses and Matthew.
