General Notes for Child Henry SQUIRE
m 10/19/1609 Charlton Mackrell Somersetshire Egnalnd
Edith Squire.
Rev Wm Squire b 1520 rector of Charlton Mackrell,
Somersetshire, Entl evidenced by will of Rev George
Levermore, vicar of Charlton Adam, bequeathed certain
goods to William Squyre parson of Charleton Macarell.
In 1553-8 under Mary Tudor a list was made of all
married clergy in Englandwho were ordered to divorce
their wives to conform to the RC law of clerical
celibacy. At ecclesisatical visitation of Charlton
Mackrell in 1554 the church wardens presented htat
"William Squyer was married and doth minister ageyne
not separated. Died prob 1567.
Issue incl Henry Squire, b abut 1563 Charlton
Mackrell. Is termed in 1580 husbandman of Moorlinch,
a parish 7 miles away. Proably was an apprentice to a

Original marriage bond shows his signature and the mark of her father Henry Squire called "blacksmith of Kingweston".
Margaret bp 25 Apr 1596 m in England John Shepherd and emigr w him in 1638 to New Engl.
Frnaces bp 3 Feb 1598/9
They were yeomen. Cultivated leasehold farms and raised sheep and cattle and lived in simple stone, thatched cottages.
A more plausible explanation for the migration eliminates the religious factor entirely.
One of the great promotors of emigration in SW England was Rev. John White, rector of Holy Trinity Church, Dorchester, Co. Dorset, who represented the moderate conforming clergy in the great religious controversies which preceded the Civil War in England. HIs influence extended all over that region and he advocated as early as 1622 the colonization of New England for spiritual and material reasons, believing that it could be a haven, as well for NOn-conformers as for loyal Churchmen. He organized the "Dorchester Adventures" in 1623, a commerical company which owas to opersate at Cape Ann, and was actaive in promotion of this and like enterprises.
Including that of the Massachusetts Bay Company itself.
Among his parishioners was Aquila Purchase, master of Trinity School, Dorchester, England, 1625-33, whose brohter Thomas Purchase went to New England as early as 1626 and settled in what is now Brunswick, Me. Aquila Purchase was employed as a teacher in the vicinity of Kingweston 1612-14. He met and married there, Jan 1613-4, Anne Squire, sister of Edith Squire, and thus became brother in law of Henry Adams.
Aquila Purchase with wife and children emigrated Mar 1632/3 to Dorchester, MA. He died during the voyage or soon after. On 5 Aug 1633
