  1. 2.  Robert CARR Descendancy chart to this point (1.Martha1) was born 4 Oct 1614, London, Middlesex, England; died Between 20 Apr and 4 Oct 1681, Newport, RI.

    Notes:

    The following information is paraphrased from a summary posted online by Roger Courser (see RDCourser@excite.com]:

    Robert came to America with his brother Caleb on the ship "Elizabeth & Ann," commanded by Captain Roger Cooper, sailing from London on 9 May 1635. On this shipping record is listed: Caleb Carr, age 11; and Robert Carr, age 21, described as a "taylor." Both brothers were considered minors at the time, and were sent to America after the death of their parents to live with their uncle William Carr, who had previously come, and lived in Bristol with his wife Susan.

    The young brothers eventually settled in Newport, RI and were recognized as freemen there. (See Records of the National Society of Colonial Dames of America, Rhode Island, p. 92 in RI Manual; also see "Little Compton Families" by Benjamin Franklin Wilbour.) Robert was admitted as an inhabitant of Portsmouth on 21 Feb 1639, and as a freeman in Newport, 16 March 1641. He is said to be one of the original purchasers of the island of Conanicut (Jamestown) from the Indians. This transaction also included property in Newport.

    Both Caleb and Robert were associates of William Coddington, who came from Boston, Lincolnshire, England, as one of the original members of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1629. He was one of the leading merchants in Boston, MA, during its early years. In 1637, a group of people led by William Coddington left Boston, MA, because of unresolved religious differences. This group went south to Providence, RI, and conferred with Roger Williams, who had established his settlement on the premise of liberty of religious conscience. With the aid of Mr. Williams, the group purchased from the Indians the large island of Aquidnick and founded the town of Pacassit (later called Portsmouth). In 1639, again because of differences, Coddington separated from Anne Hutchinson's family and moved to the south end of the island to lay out a new settlement called Newport. It is believed that Robert adopted the beliefs of the society of Friends and was known as a Quaker. His will was dated 20 April 1681.

    In addition to the above information on Robert, the following is exerpted from "The Carr Ancestry of Richmond Carr of Portsmouth, RI," by Francis Richmond Sears, published in "Genealogies of RI Families, Vol I," pp. 108 ff, also on Family Tree Maker CD 180:

    Robert is frequently referred to in official documents which record various transactions and appointments. For example, on 11 June 1677 the Assembly met at his house at 8 o'clock in the morning. On 15 Nov 1678 he was given L1.4s by the Assembly for service done by his son Caleb and his sloop, in transporting Magistrates to Narragansett. Other records give details of deeds or the amount he paid in taxes.

    His will mentions: "my loving wife," eldest son Caleb, daughter Mary & son-in-law John Hicks, son Robert, daughter Elizabeth & son-in-law James Brown, son Esek, and daughter Margaret. Appointed as overseers were "my brother Caleb Carr" and Walter Clarke.

    Notes:

    For a record of this marriage, see "New England Marriages Prior to 1700" by Clarence Almond Torrey, Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., Baltimore, MD., 1985, pp. 136-137

    Some online sites have this Caleb as being the one born in August 1657. Various sites have that other Caleb as being either the son of Robert or the son of his brother Caleb, who was the governor. Also, Francis Richmond Sears has this Caleb's estimated year of birth as 1650, but 1644 seems more likely when the whole family group is analyzed. We know from his father's will that Caleb was the eldest.

    Caleb's will of 1688 mentions his wife "Phillip," eldest son Caleb, other sons William, Robert, Job, and daughters Mary & "Phillip," both under 18. Also mentioned are cousin Nicholas Carr, "father" Major John Greene, and brother-in-law Peter Greene.
