  1. 8.  Samuel Aborn was born Bef 1704.

    Notes:

    In 1710 Samuel purchased 20 acres of land in Wickford from Lodowick Updike. (source: The History of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations; New York: American Historical Society, 1920; p. 203; at Heritage Quest)

    "(I) Samuel Aborn, the progenitor, is first of record in Wickford, R. I., in the year 1710, when he purchased of Lodowick Updike twenty acres of land. He settled in Wickford, where he followed the calling of shipwright. He became the owner of considerable property, and rose to prominence in the affairs of the town. He married Susanna ---- , and they were the parents of three sons. Susanna Aborn died after 1753. Among the descendants of Samuel and Susanna Aborn have been many leaders in Rhode Island life.

    "(II) Captain Joseph Aborn, son of Samuel and Susanna Aborn, was born in 1722, and was a resident of Wickford, R. I., and later of Pawtuxet, in which latter town he was the first of the family to settle. He was a master mariner, and followed the sea during the greater part of his life. Captain Joseph Aborn married Elizabeth Scranton, born in 1723, and died in 1799, and is buried in Greene Cemetery, in Pawtuxet."

    It seems to me that there are several Samuel Aborns, and their identity has not yet been sorted out.

    Israel married Mary Rhodes 14 Jan 1724/25. Mary (daughter of Peleg Rhodes and Sarah Stevens) was born Abt 1701; died Aft Sep 1743. [Group Sheet]

  5. 14.  Robert Westgate was born Abt 1698; died Apr 1759.

    Notes:

    Some genealogies show this Robert as a son of Robert & Sarah Westgate of Warwick. However, there is a Warwick will for a Robert Westgate, Jr., who died Jan/Feb 1749/50. That individual is more likely to have have been the son of Robert & Sarah.

    Robert & Patience had the following children named in his will and/or the will of his mother-in-law, Hannah Carr: Avis (m. 26 June 1745 William Smith b. 21 Feb 1715), Patience (m. Peleg Arnold), Sarah (m. Benjamin Watson), Hannah (m. James Aborn), & Mary.

    The executor of his will was son-in-law Peleg Arnold.

    Robert married Patience Carr 9 Jul 1723, Warwick, RI. Patience (daughter of Edward Carr and Hannah Stanton) was born 14 Feb 1700/01; died 27 Mar 1753, Warwick, RI. [Group Sheet]
