Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Richard Munday was born 12 Mar 1737/38, Bristol, RI (son of Richard Munday and Elizabeth Eliza Hubbard).

Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Richard Munday was born Abt 1690; died 1738, Newport or Bristol, RI.

    Notes:

    Richard was a noted housewright and architect in Newport.

    Boston records refer to a Richard Munday in Boston, winecooper, who had a wife named Martha in 1728.

    The dates for his five children are baptismal dates from St. Michael's Episcopal Church in Bristol, RI. I don't know if they were actually born in Bristol or in Newport.

    A Plymouth, MA, court record of 1736 mentions Richard Munday "Bristoll yeoman or Houswright" in a court case involving a cow that was not returned by him to the plaintif, Otiss Little, gentleman of Pembrooke.

    The will of Richard Munday of Newport, housewright, dated 1738, mentions his wife Elizabeth and 5 children: William, Nathaniel, Richard, Mary, and Rebecca. No grandchildren are mentioned (it appears that he died when his children were very young).

    Richard married Elizabeth Eliza Hubbard 27 Jan 1731/32, Bristol, RI. Elizabeth (daughter of Nathaniel Hubbard and Elizabeth Nelson) was born 9 Dec 1708, Braintree, Norfolk Co., MA; died Abt Jun 1773. [Group Sheet]


  2. 3.  Elizabeth Eliza Hubbard was born 9 Dec 1708, Braintree, Norfolk Co., MA (daughter of Nathaniel Hubbard and Elizabeth Nelson); died Abt Jun 1773.

    Notes:

    Her name is given as Elizabeth in the marriage record and Eliza in the children's birth records. I have roughly estimated her birth year.

    She could not have been the daughter of Rebecca Gore who married Nathaniel Hubbard in 1726. I believe Elizabeth and all her siblings (that I know of) were children of Nathaniel's first wife.

    She is mentioned as a daughter in the 1747 will of her father Nathaniel Hubbard; the will also mentions two of her sons, William and Nathaniel. This suggests that her son Richard may have died by the date of the will.

    I am not sure of this date for Elizabeth's death. Ezra Stiles mentions the death of a "Mrs. Munday" in June 1773, so it may refer to Richard's widow (source: research from Cherry Fletcher Bamberg, RIGS).

    Children:
    1. Mary Munday was born 11 Mar 1732/33, Bristol, RI.
    2. William Munday was born 21 Jul 1734, Bristol, RI.
    3. Nathaniel Munday was born 28 Sep 1735, Bristol, RI; died Abt 20 Mar 1785, Stamford, CT.
    4. Rebecca Munday was born 2 Jan 1736/37, Bristol, RI.
    5. 1. Richard Munday was born 12 Mar 1737/38, Bristol, RI.


Generation: 3

  1. 6.  Nathaniel Hubbard was born 13 Oct 1680, Boston, Suffolk Co., MA (son of John Hubbard and Anne Leverett); died Abt Mar 1747/48, Rehoboth, MA.

    Notes:

    Nathaniel's birth record identifies him as s/o John and Ann. I have made an assumption that this Nathaniel born in 1680 is also the one whose will is dated 5 Nov 1747 at Rehoboth, as below.

    There are several individuals of the same name. Another Nathaniel Hubbard, merchant, died about April 1699 and his estate was probated in Boston in August of 1699 by William Clarke, at the request of his mother Sarah Ward of Mistick. So, he cannot be the son of John and Ann.

    The will of Nathaniel Hubbard of Rehoboth is dated 5 November 1747, proved 17 March 1748. It mentions his wife Rebeka; sons John eldest, Nathaniel, and Leveritt; daughters Anne, Margaret (no surnames), and Elizabeth Mundy; also mentioned are grandsons William and Nathaniel Mundy, sons of daughter Elizabeth; his sisters Mary Ruggles dec'd, Rebeka Hart dec'd, and Anne; other relatives. (Bristol County, MA: Probate File Papers, 1686-1880, image viewable at AmericanAncestors.org)

    I am not sure if his wife Rebeckah was the mother of any of his children. This needs more research. Nathaniel Hubbard Esq was married to Mrs. Rebecca Gore 20 Jan 1725 at Boston, but most, if not all, of his children seem to have been born before 1725.

    Naming a son Leverett seems to confirm the link to Anne Leverett, Nathaniel's mother, and that he is indeed the one born in 1680 as above. Many historical sources agree.

    See also North America, Family Histories, 1500-2000, Daniel Peirce and His Descendants, p 10 (ancestry.com), for more details on Nathaniel and his son Leverett (who married Anne Jaffrey Peirce).

    Hon. Nathaniel Hubbard, Rebecca his wife, and Anna his sister, are listed as members of St. Michael's in Bristol (Rhode Island: Vital Records, 1636-1850, Bristol, Churches, Episcopal and Congregational, p 253). A notation says the "three came from Dedham."

    The following notes are excerpted from genealogy.com, user trees (Robert G. Hubbard):
    "Nathaniel was a preacher and teacher early in life, a land speculator, probably a merchant. In his will it states he had two slaves. It stated that, 'in his political dealings, he shone with particular luster. He was an active councilor.' His political appointments were as follows: Braintree HR in 1711, Braintree Council from 1737 to 1740 and 1742-1744, selectman in Braintree 1710-1711, selectman in Stoughton 1727-1728, JP 1713, 1715, 1728q, 1729, 1744q; Admiralty Court Deputy Judge, 1729 -1745; Superior Court of Judicature Judge 1746-1748.

    "Nathaniel probably left the bench in 1747, which was also probably the year of his death at Bristol, in that part of the town which retains the Indian name of Poppy Squash, where may be seen his tombstone.He inherited his father's virtues, especially that amiable spirit of benevolence. (Note- according to the Records of Legislators of Mass. General Court, Nathaniel died in 1748). Nathaniel resided in Dorchester, MA from at least 1715 to 1723 where he was a minister. He presided over marriages there during that time period. He is also listed on the birth and death records of his children during this period as a lawyer. It appears he had lived previously in Braintree and that he moved to Stoughton after his stay in Dorchester and then moved again back to Braintree. Based upon the record of his admittance to the church in Bristol, RI, in 1741, it appears he lived in Dedham after his second stay in Braintree. He lived in Bristol, RI the rest of his life. In the marriage records of Dorchester that he presided over, he is referred to as 'ye worshipful Nathll. Hubbard, Esqr.' "

    Nathaniel married Elizabeth Nelson 23 Aug 1707, Braintree, Norfolk Co., MA. Elizabeth (daughter of John Nelson and Elizabeth Taylor) was born Abt 1688, Dorchester, MA; died 21 Dec 1724, Dorchester, MA; was buried 24 Dec 1724, Christ Church Cemetery, Boston, MA. [Group Sheet]


  2. 7.  Elizabeth Nelson was born Abt 1688, Dorchester, MA (daughter of John Nelson and Elizabeth Taylor); died 21 Dec 1724, Dorchester, MA; was buried 24 Dec 1724, Christ Church Cemetery, Boston, MA.
