So shall it be with my father: he shall be called a prince over his posterity, holding the keys of the patriarchal priesthood over the kingdom of God on earth, even the Church of the Latter Day Saints, and he shall sit in the general assembly of patriarchs, even in council with the Ancient of Days when he shall sit and all the patriarchs with him and shall enjoy his right and authority under the direction of the Ancient of Days. |

No Bagley is named on any deeds or probate records prior to 1677. However, Orlando Bagley's name is on a paper dated Mar 19, 1654, on a list of inhabitants and commoners here in the new town Salisbury, MA. His name is not listed on a similar petition. Indeed it is difficult to prove that the first Orlando ever listed in Amesbury at all, but it is known that he lived in Boston where he probably 1663. When the new town, Amesbury. MA. 1666. Orlando was probably dead and reference after that date refers to his son, Orlando. When Merritt in his history Amesbury, Massachusetts, mentions Orlando Bagley's name under the list of thirty-six voters at the incorporation of Amesbury, he evidently included all who had been voters from 1655 to 1666. Evidently Orlando was a man of some standing since he married Sarah Colby, daughter of Anthony Colby and Susanna (Haddon). Anthony, the first Colby to come to New England, was in Boston as early as 1630, as he is listed as a member of the church at that time. He was the son of Thomas and Beatrice (Felton) Colby of Playford, England, and was probably of Roos Hall, Beccles, Suffolk Co., and hence, through the female line, a descendant of six signers of the Magna Carta. He came to Massachusetts, probably in the company of Governor Winthrop, since he is called "Planter" and was of Boston, thence of Cambridge, where he built the first house, then was one of the founders of Amesbury, where his house was built in 1647. He d. Feb 11, 1660 (Sales MA R). His wife, Susanna, d. July 8, 1689, under the name of Whitridge, having married William Whitridge, in 1663-64 (Salisbury, MA).

MA Probate A LASTING LEGACY THE BAGLEY FAMILY HISTORY SINCE 1628 by Martha Bagley Halverson Heritage Associates, Inc. Microfilm 6005848 At a town meeting, held March 19, 1654, eighteen "commoners" became the original proprietors of Amesbury. The first man listed was Anthony Colby. Further down the list we find the first mention of Orlando Bagley. He was 26 years old at the time and had already married Sarah Colby who was 18, in Salisbury on March 6, 1653. Orlando and Sarah were probably living with the Colbys at the time because Orlando was not yet listed as a permanent resident of Amesbury. The conditions in Amesbury were quite primitive. There is mention of wolves being "very plentiful and troublesome. The general court ordered the constables to pay the Indians three quarts of wine and a bushel of corn per head for all the wolves they killed." There were few paths through the dense forests. For many years the most convenient way of getting to Boston and other coastal settlements was by the oceans and rivers. Ox carts were another means of travel. Most people dignitary and commoner alike, had to walk. It took four days to travel the comparatively short distance from Amesbury to Boston. When Orlando and his wife set up a household in Amesbury, it was most likely an "English wigwam". The town clerk, Edward Johnson, writing in 1652 relates that settlers "burrow themselves in the Earth for their first shelter under some Hillside, casting the Earth aloft up on Timber: they make a smoaky fire against the Earth at the highest side, and thus these poore servants of Christ provide shelter for themselves, their Wives and little ones. A door was in a frame with wooden hinges the floor would be covered with rushes or straw. The roof was thatched with river sedge. There was much sickness, malaria and fever, which was attributed to the breaking up of virgin soil. The Indians had discovered that "the inner bark of spruce and slippery elm trees mixed with the first birch sprouts" could be used as medicine. This was a time when people sent for a barber to "bleed" a patient and most medicinal concoctions were based on superstitions. Warming pans for clammy feet and steaming cloths for a chest cold were common sense approaches to the many health challenges Sarah and Orlando faced. At the age of twenty, Sarah bore her first child, John. He died when he was only two years old. On February 18, 1657 their second son, Orlando, was born. His birth was recorded in Boston. Orlando Jr., became a commissioned officer later in his life, an "Ensign" in Lt. Caleb Moody's company in 1708 and is referred to in documents as Ensign Orlando Bagley, thereby, he is distinguishable from his father and later his own son, Orlando III. An interesting connection can be made with this family. Ensign Orlando was one of six children. His youngest sister, Sarah, was born in 1653 in Inverness, Scotland and came to Salisbury, Massachusetts in about 1670. He dropped his name, retaining the prefix only, so he could avoid religious persecution. John and Sarah Mack moved to Concord, Maine and had seen children They later moved to Lyme, Connecticut in 1686. They are maternal great grandparents of Lucy Mack Smith, the mother of Joseph Smith, the founder of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Sarah's father, Anthony Colby, died at age 56 on February 11, 1661. The "Records and Files of the Quarterly Courts of Essex County Massachusetts" describe the division of his estate: "To ye widdow for hir part: Ye dwelling house, barne and fourteen acres of upland Ye Ferie Meadow, Ye household goods, a yoake of Oxen, three Cows, seven Swine, sheep, Corne, the boggie meadow To Sarah, Ye wife of Orlando Bagly: one Cowe and one three yeere old steere, a young horse, another Cowe." The Salisbury Town Records tell us something significant about the Puritan use of the word "ye": "The article 'ye' is really 'the and should be so pronounced. The 'y' in the word represents the Anglo-Saxon character which was equivalent to the English 'th.' for 'th' in writing the article 'the' and some other similar words." Sarah Colby Bagley died in childbirth May 18, 1663 in Boston at the age of 28 years. It is recorded that her husband Orlando died the same day at the age of 35. There are no details of his death but he was buried in Amesbury. Bagley reprinted (with Coat of Arms) #2005178: (unable to copy) All genealogy has been recorded in this Database.
