General Notes (Husband)
I usually find the children listed as Alice's, whatever her last name actually was (may ahve been Daniels). Some may have been children of his first wife. It is hard to see how he had a child born in 1631 in Dorchester if he did not get there until 1635. Alot of things are vague with this man.
John Kingsley, born 9/17/1614 in Hampshire, England. John settled in Rehoboth, Mass. He married Elizabeth Stoughton. John was the son of
Among the people who came to Plymouth in 1630 were two brothers,
John and Stephen Kingsley, who came from Hampshire in England. In 1635,
John Kingsley left Plymouth and moved north to Dorchester in the
developing Boston area with a friend of Cotton Mather. He was followed by
Stephen who by 1640 was the owner of a valuable property in the
Braintree area. There he became a Court deputy in Braintree and Milton
from 1650 to 1666 and was also trustee of estates until his death in
1673. His family was to go on to found several towns in the Connecticut
area.
Note: I found only two places, online, that state that John Kingsley and his possibly brother Stephen were ever in Plymouth and I know of know proof of this. Most say they both went straight to Dorchester.
John, along with seven others was a pillar of a new church founded
for him in August 23, 1636 and was among the last survivors.
He got married a year after he got to Dorchester to Alice Daniels.
They had four children while they were at Dorchester, Eldad (1638), Enos,
Samuel, Renewed (1644). John Kingsley acquired the first grant of
land in the Taunton area in 1645 and moved there. The next year he
became shareholder in Great Lots (?). Three years later he moved to
Rehoboth in Bristol county. John and Alice had three more children in
Rehoboth, Grace, John, and Edward. What happened in moving into the
Rehoboth area, however, was that he moved into an region which was
eventually to explode into what is known as King Philipís War. The first
generation of settlers who had worked out an uneasy alliance with
Massassoit, chief of the Wampanoags, were now replaced by people who
wanted to expand their opportunities for development. The culture of the
Indians and that of the settlers differed greatly as to the use of land. A
continuing problem was the trampling of Native cornfields by colonistsí
livestock. While colonists were legally responsible for damage, such laws
were difficult to enforce in remote areas such as Rehoboth and Taunton.
Increased competition for resources (particularly land for planting,
hunting and fishing) caused friction between the two groups. In 1662, in
an arrogant attempt to exert control, the Plymouth Court summoned
Wampanoag leader Wamsutta (the son of Massassoit) to Plymouth. Major
Josiah Winslow and a small force took Wamsutta at gunpoint. Soon after
questioning, Wamsutta became sick and died. His death greatly angered
the Wampanoag.
Wamsutta's brother Metacom (also called Philip) succeeded him.
Plymouthís continued unyielding policy toward Native leaders, as well as
the events surrounding the murder of Sassamon, a liaison between the
two groups, caused the breakdown in relations that led to war. In 1675,
hostilities broke out in the town of Swansea, and the war spread as far
north as New Hampshire, and as far southwest as Connecticut. Not all
Native People, however, sided with Philip. Most Natives who had
converted to Christianity fought with the English or remained neutral. The
English, however, did not always trust these converts and interned many
of them in camps on outlying islands. Native soldiers fighting on the side
of the colonists helped turn the tide of the war, which ended in 1676
when Philip was killed by a Wampanoag fighting with Captain Benjamin
Church in the Great Swamp of southern Rhode Island. The strain connected
with the difficult relationships with the Indians over almost a thirty
year period ending with the death of Philip caused Johnís health to suffer
and he asked for relief in that year. He moved to Bristol, RI and died in
1678/9.
2762] from ANNALS OF DORCHESTER He was one of the 7 signers of the
church covenant at Dorchester, Mass. He was a farmer. He was one
of the original purchasers of Taunton, Mass. He got a share of
the great lots of 1646, was a rater in 1648 and a freeman
in1651. From KINGSLEY GENEALOGY by Brown He was a man of strong
religious convictions and was obliged to leave England because
of his religious principles. He was involved in the King
Philip's War and the area was destroyed. He wrotef a letter describing
the misery and despair they experienced.

From THE KINGSLEY FAMILY OF AMERICA He lived in Dorchester. He
was appointed bailiff in 1647, Tax collector in 1648 elder in
the church in 1655.

FromKINGSLEY FAMILY OF AMERICA by William Author Kingsley When
the Kink Philip's war broke out all the able men went to Boston
and joined the war, women and children went of Swansea and
Rehoboth when a Rev Johne Clarke gave them shelter. The Indians
burned the towns but John Kingsley was saved by being in a
fortified garrison home. Five weeks of isolation left them
starving and he wrote a letter to friends in Conn. to please
send food. About three weeks later food arrived in Boston and
Rehoboth.

Mary Johnson Mowry married John kinglsey after the death of Roger
Mowry. So here is some facts on him which pertains to her. The following
is some material I have assembled on John Kingsley and family. I found
recently that his grave eventually was moved to Seekonk. MA. I know
where it is but have not had the time to go and look at it. There is a
mention of him in the recent book. "King Phillip's War."
Kingsley Family of America by William Kingsley cited as source:
John came in England between 1630 and 1635, eventually settling in Dorchester, Massachusetts, where he was one of seven organizers of the First Church of Dorcheseter which was founded in August 1636. He and Elizabeth married there, and she was teh second church member when her marriage coveant was signed.
John remarried sometime after 1640, to Alice Daniels. He acquired the first grant of land in Taunton, Massachsuetts, in 1645 and relocated there, where he became a shareholder in Great Lots teh following year. He was appointed bailiff in 1647 and tax collector in 1648. In about 1649 the family moved to Rehoboth, Massachsetts. They sepnt maybe ten years in their fertile farm east of Seekonk River. Tehy raised grain, and had horses, cattle, sheep, swine and fowls.
After the death of his second wife, John married Mary Johnson Mowry, his daughter-in-law's mother, in 1674.
In 1675 King Philip's war broke out. The Indians burned the town March the 28th, 1676: "... a party of the INdians, crossing the river, laid the town in ashes, burning forty houses and thirty barns. Only two houses were left standing, the garrison house, which stood on the spot where the house of Phauel Bishop now stands, and another home on the south end of the common, which was preserved by black sticks having been arranged around it, so as to give it at a distance the appearance of being strongly guarded. The houses were set on fire, as tradition informs us, early in the evening, and when the sun arose the next morning it beheld only a line of smoking ruins.
John was saved by being in a fortified garrison home. (Mary had probably fled with the other women and children to Neoport where Rev. John Clarke provided shelter for them). Five weeks of isolation had left them starving and he wrote a letter fo friends in Connecticut to please send food. About three weeks later food arrived.
John and Mary moved to Bristol, Rhode Island, where the couple died wihtin a day of each other. His grave was moved back to Rehoboth, probably because he stated in his will that he wanted 'to be buried by my wife Allice in the North Corner of my houselott".
John's will mentioned only three children; Freedom (Mary), Edward and Enos.

From John Johnson Genealogy:
Roger Mowry was a friend of Roger Williams. They removed with him to Rhode Island, where Mowry held many important positions. He was a Representative to the General Court in 1658 from Providence.
Member of 1st Church, Salem, Mass.
Roger arrived in Boston from England early in 1631.

From The Great Migration Begins, newenglandancestors.org
Migrated 1630. First lived in Salem. Moved to Lynn by 1646, and to Providence by 1652.
He was a Neat herd at Salem, 1636-41, an innkeeper at Providence by 1655. In 1657 the Rhode Island Treasurer was ordered to pay Roger "Moorie" 1s 6d out of the treasury "for this day's firing & house room".
He was in the list of Salem church members compiled in late 1636, annotated "removed". He was a freeman on 18 May 1631 as Roger Mawry.
He could sign his name, and his wife made her mark.
He served on the Essex petit jury (from Salem), 26 Jan 1641/2, and as Providence constable in 1655. One of six men chosen to hear cases in Providence in 1662. In later life he was frequently a Providence juryman.
In the Salem land grant in 1636, Roger Morie received 40 (or 50) acres "next to Mr. Cole". On 14 Aug 1637, he requsted a "spot of ground by Estye's". He was granted 3/4 of an acre of marsh on 25 Dec 1637, with a household of five. He had 50 acres laid out 20 Feb 1637 and on Jul 20 1638 he was granted a strip of meadow of 2 1/2 acres and 1 1/2 acres of upland.
Land was laid out in Providence to Roger Mowry in early 1656 at his request. ON 27 Aug 1656 he had a house lot laid out to him upon the hill against Robert William's meadow. On 15 Jan 1658 he bought a house and four acres from Robert Colwell and sold it to Thomas Olney Sr of Providence 19 Mar 1658/9. On 7 Apr 1660 was granted six acres of land and thre acres of meadow in exchange for land that he had been previously granted. On 12 Jun 1660 he sold ninety acres of land a mile outside of Providence to John Acres of Dorchester. On 23 Nov 1660 Henry Neale of Braintree, carpenter, sold Mowry everthing he had in Providence, including his house, which had been purchased from Daniel Comstock on 3 Feb 1661/2. Mowry sold the right of commonage that came with this land to William Carpenter. On 4 May 1651 Samuel Comstock's widow, Anne Smith of Providence, sold Mowry four acres in the row of houses in the north part of Providence, next to a prcel already owned by Mowry. Mowry sold Robert Colwell's right of commage to William Carpenter of Pautuxett on 22 Dec 1662. In the Division on the East Side of the Seven Mile Line, Roger Mowry drew lot # 74 on 19 Feb 1665/6.
On 3 Jun 1685 Timothy Brookes reveals that "for & in satisfaction of a certain sum of money which the said Roger Maurey promised unto the said Eldad Kinsley in marriage with his said daughter Mehitabell for part of her portion. Mowry did.. give.. .unto the said Eldad Kinsley a certain quantity of land containing by estimation twelve acres".
Although Roger Mowry had made her his executrix, the widow Mary ultimately refused administration of his insolvent estate. She later accepted administration, but neither will nor inventory survive and were missing as early as 1677 when a review of town books which had survived King Philip's war revealed that the administration papers and bond were missing. She may have been an ineffective administratrix, fo rson JOnathan claimed before a Providence town meeting that he had taken possesson of twelve acres of upland that had been his father's right, being the "son and heir apparent".
Birth by about 1610 based on date of freemanship.
Death: Providence, 5 Jan 1666/7.
Marriage by 1637, Mary Johnson, daughter of John Johnson. She married (2) Rehoboth, 14 Jan 1673, John Kingsley, and was buried at Rehoboth 6 Jan 1678/9.
Hannah Mowry and Elizabeth Mowry were members of teh Salem church in teh 1640's and may have been connected in some way to Roger Mowry. Alternatively their surnames may have been variants of "Moore" or "More".
In a warrant to the constable of Lynn, dated 29 Dec 1648, one of the witnesses was "Roger Morey".
Mention is made of where Roger Morey's old house stood i 1649, perhaps referring to his remove from Salem to Lynn. A flawed reading of records in the case in which Mrs. Lydia Bankers sued Mowry for debt in June of 1650 resulted in teh erroneous conclusion that Lydia was the daughter of John Johnson of Roxbury.
John Clawson, a servant of Roger Williams, is said to have complained of some men "such as Roger Mowry" according to the deposition of Edward Inman on the occasoin of Clawson's violent death.
Roger was adminstrator of the estate of William Robinson of Providence in October 1657.
Great Migraton Begins, NEHGR, does not have firstborn son Roger. John Johnson Genealogy lists Roger, but gives no date of birth and no other information.

General Notes (Husband)
Lived in Sherborn.
John Johnson Genealogy lists just five children; the first five. But the last three did not have children.
Morse genealogy : comprising the descendants of Samuel Anthony, William, and Joseph Morse and John Moss lists nine children, of whom I had eight listed. Actually, the John Johnson genealogy lists the five children of Mary Johnson, from the first marriage, then lists all nine children without differentating which were from which marriage, though the children born after the first wife died and Noah remarried must be from the second marriage.
Genealogy has this runon sentence. Noah Morse, son of Daniel and Elizabeth (Barbour) Morse, was born in Medfield, April 20, 1681; he resided in Sherborn. His estate was administered in 1719 by his widow, Mrs. Abigail Morse; Mr. Nathaniel Johnson of Pontefract (now Pomfret) Conn., was appointed guardian for four grandchildren of his son-in-law, Noah Morse, "who left five children by another Venter, and one by Mrs. Abigail Morse," July, 1730, Cyprian Morse of Mortlake (now Brooklyn) Conn., Jonathan and Hepsebeth Mason of Dedham, Mass., Joseph Morse, junior, wife Experience, of Sherborn, children of Noah Morse, deceased, with his late widow, now wife of Nathaniel Heaton of Wrentham, Mass., sold the share of his estate in that of Obediah Morse, deceased, of Sherborn.

General Notes for Child Jemima MORSE
John Johnson Genealogy has her born 1707, died about 1714. It is possible there were two Jemima's.
Morse Genealogy also has her died about 1714, which makes it impossible that she married Henry Cahill in 1731.
Apparently she is confused with her half sister of the same name, who lived.
General Notes for Child Hepzibeth MORSE
They moved to Sturbridge.
General Notes for Child Cyprian MORSE
lived in Pomfret and Brooklyn, CT.
