The genealogy of the descendants of Richard Haven, of Lynn ...

FIRST GENERATION. 9
son of his deceased sister, Hannah Parker 75 ; to the children
of Hannah, a deceased daughter of said Hannah 75 to the
;
children of Mary, another deceased daughter of said Hannah ;
75 to Sarah a daughter of said Hannah 100 to his ; sister,
Sarah Hawks of Lynn, widow 100 to his ; kinswoman, Sarah,
wife of Benj. Grey 100 to his ; kinswoman, Hannah, wife of
Jonathan Wait 50 to his ; housekeeper, Abigail Edmunds and
;
to his Executors, Elkanah Hawks, and Jonathan Hawks, his
" whole remaining estate." SUSANNA must have married a PAGE,
and died, leaving Jonathan, the same before-mentioned as claiming
lands in Hebron, as heir of his 1
grandfather, Richard Haven.
By the excellent index to the Lynn records, made by Mr. Lewis,
it does not appear that the name of Haven was continued, in that
town, beyond the children of Richard Haven, jr.; nor am I able to
learn that any of the descendants of Richard Haven, senior, are
now living in Lynn. The first had died before the date of his
father's will.
SARAH HAYEN 1
married a WHITNEY. She is called " my
in her father's will. Whether she had
daughter, Sarah Whitney,"
any children does not appear.

JOHN HAYEN married HANNAH HICHINS, at Lynn, 3
Oct. 1682, by whom he had JOHN, born at Lynn, 8 June, 1683;

do not appear; JOSEPH, born at Fram., (then Sherburne,) in 1698,
and HANNAH, in 1700, the year in which Fram. was incorporated.

At the first town meeting, he was on a committee " to discourse
with a lawyer." He was an original member of Mr. Swift's
church, organized, 8 Oct. 1701. In the preceding May, he was on
a committee to inquire as to the qualifications of Mr. Swift, and
on another to give him a call. In July, 1701, he was on a committee
to settle differences with Sherburne. In 1702, he was on
a committee to " seat the meeting-house," and was also selectman
and Representative and was ;
again Representative the next year.
In May, 1704, the town voted
"
to pay his attendance, except Sundays."
After this, his name is not on the town records. The
church records, before the 29 March, 1717, are lost. His widow,
Hannah, took administration, 2 April, 1705. He had the addition
of "joiner." Real estate, 160; personal, 226. One item is
"
sord and ivalking-stqff 6s." This staff, with his initials, is now
possessed by John Haven Mixer, his great-great grandson, now
living in VYorcester county, in the vicinity of Charlton. The
widow, Hannah, married John How of Fram. July 1, 1712.
