Shadrach Hapgood Anderson: Peter Noyes, who emigrated in 1638, came from a family long involved in nonconformist activities in southwestern England. (pages 49-50) Another emigrant, Peter Noyes, rented out part of his English property to his sister, partly to obtain money to pay for his family's passage. After he sailed in 1638, he retained possession of a house and land near Andover in Hampshire. This property provided Noyes with an annual rent of about £20 during his lifetime and, after his death in 1657, supplemented his three sons' portions .... [3] Renting out property in England and using the income to supplement a New England estate was obviously a prudent solution to the emigration problem, but it was also a scheme beyond the reach of most emigrants. Virtually all of those who adopted this strategy were older men who had accumulated substantial amounts of land prior to their emigration. Tilden, Noyes, Starr, and Besbeech were all aged forty-five or more ... Moreover, Tilden, Hall, and Noyes were all yeoman, acutely aware of the value of their freeholds and doubtless reluctant to give them up. Some land might have to be sold or rented to acquire the cash to pay for provisions and passage, but since their estates were clearly substantial, they could afford to retain some portion of them. [3] Citations to probate materials will be given by county, followed by a docket number, if the original will or inventory survives ... Peter Noyes, Middlesex no. 16074. For Noyes, see also Sumner Chilton Powell, Puritan Village: The Formation of a New England Town (Middletown, Conn., 1963), 5. (page 125) Nathaniel Tilden, Nicholas Butler, and Peter Noyes -- who had all been called yeomen in England -- concluded that their freehold ownership of substantial New England estates (and, perhaps, their ability to leave the task of actually working those farms to others) entitled them to assume the rank of gentleman. [75] [75] The term "yeoman" did not have a precise legal definition in this period, but it generally indicated freehold status .... Tilden was labeled a gentleman in his inventory ... as was Noyes in his (Middlesex County, docket no. 16074) .... Although Tilden, Butler, and Noyes called themselves yeoman at the time of their voyages, their English estates may not have been held exclusively as freeholds. Noyes, for instance, held land in copyhold in Weyhill, Hampshire; see Powell, Puritan Village. Powell: "On the twenty-sixth of March, 1638, Peter Noyes, yeoman of the parish of Weyhill, Hampshire, gave his land back to the Lord of the Manor. No longer would he help his Hampshire neighbors erect fences around the common fields in the spring or watch the plow teams turn furrows in the rich loam. Noyes had decided. He was taking his eldest son to visit New England in the expectation of moving his family from Weyhill forever... "Noyes was destined to be a founder of a New England town, a leader of men in every sense of the word. As such, he was to be responsible for over six hundred and fifty separate 'orders,' carrying the weight of law and often of power of life and death over his townsmen. For a yeoman from a small West Country village, this was an awesome challenge. "Peter Noyes chose this role deliberately. He was not 'harried out of the land.' Far from it. He took his steps cautiouslu but firmly; he had courage. and he had vision. He could easily have remained with the Tarrants and the other members of his own family, none of whom favored the activities of Archbishop Laud and his 'popish' ceremonies. "Noyes did not rush away impetuously either. Members of another Noyes family, undoubtedly related to Peter, had been deeply involved in the religious controversies of the period and had left five years previous from Weyhill in Cholderton, Wiltshire, their activities must have been well known to Peter. "The Cholderton Noyes family had been in the midst of the struggle over church reformation. The Reverend William Noyes, an Oxford graduate, had died in 1622, and the rectorship of the village church had gone to his son Nathan, also an Oxford Bachelor of Arts. Nathan's uncle, Robert, was a prominent yeoman in the town, as was his older brother Ephraim, But the two younger brothers had drunk deep of the Nonconformist brew, despite the fact that James had followed his father and elder brother to Oxford. Perhaps their cousin, the Reverend Thomas Parker, had fanned their rebellious spirits, for James, aged twenty-five, and Nicholas, aged eighteen, had decided to forsake Cholderton for Massachusetts. "The records do not say whether these members of the family had visited Peter Noyes in Weyhill or had passed through the village on their way to their port of embarkation, London. They do state, however, that the families knew one another. [1] __________________________________________________________________________ Page 13
