Dick: These are my notes on our "Immigrant" James Hinds to Salem, MA then on to Southold, Long Island. Could William possibly be a brother?

Could that be the name of the ship on which he arrived in New England? Quote from one of Lamb papers: The record compiled by Albert Henry Hinds (History and Genealogy of the Hinds Family)begins with James Hinds (Haines, Heynes, Haynes, Hindes) the emigrant who came to this country, probably from England, and landed in Salem, MA as early as 1637, when he was admitted as a freemen. The record continues with the historyof the descendants of the fifth child, James Hinds, Jr., baptized or christened 27 Feb 1647/1648. Quote from the Albert Henry Hinds book: FIRST GENERATION 1. JAMES HINDS (Heynes,Haynes,Hindes) the emigrant, came to this country, probably fromEngland and landed in Salem, Mass., as early as 1637, when he was admitted as a freeman. He married in 1638, and at an early day removed to Southold, L.I., (Long Island) where he died in March1652-3, his estate being valued at 123 pounds, 5s. 4d. His widow was married in June 1656 to Ralph Dayton, of Southold. Benjamin Haines, who was at Southampton in 1639, and a resident of North Sea (Northampton) in 1657, was probably a brother to James. He was the grandfather of Stephen, who moved to Elizabeth, N.J., as early as 1725, and was probably the ancestor of Gov. Daniel Haines. The following is communicated by A. M. Haines, Esq., of Galena, Ill., to the "New England Historical and Genealogical Register" in 1883: "James Haines removed from Salem., Mass., to Southold, L.I., about 1651-2, and was a cooper by profession. He is described in a deed made Aug. 7, 1660, as "James Haynes, late of Salem, in the county of Essex," (end of quote to NE Register) "We have failed to trace the first James Hindes or Haines beyond Salem, but he undoubtedly came from Salem. " The following is the will of James Hinds, which was made March 1, 1652: "I, James Haynes being weake in bodie, but by divine Providence in p'fect memorie do make this my last will and testament: "Impris. I doe give and bequeath that small estate the Lord hath been pleased to lend me to my loving wife Mary Haynes my children being Smale for to bring them upp withall only my tooles that belong to my calling I give them all to my oldest sonn John Haynes. "2d. My will is that my children continue with my wife till they be twenty one years of age, th' older laboring to be a help ti bring upp the younger, unless Providence order it otherwise that she shall dispose to herself in marriage and then shall see or have cause to put any of them to some honest trade or callinge. "I lieave it to her & my loving friends Mr. John Youngs, Sen: & John Herbert my overseers to dispose of, or in came she should not dispose of herself in marriage, that she finds not herselfe able to govern them, or that it bee not advantagious to the family to keep them all at home, then I leave it to her, and my aforesaid overseers to dispose of them.

(Incidentally, Nan joined the maillist to determine if Southold was considered part of the Dutch Colonies but it was not ever Dutch as New York was.) This is the first mention Nan rec'd concerning the wife's name - Mary Knight. "I have James Hinds and Mary Knight in Southhold - my line is from one of the sons who stayed in MA." - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----
