Notes:

Guessing on this marriage go Amey on NJ IGI

Notes:

We had death as 1760. Larry Nicodemus (m318619@mail.airmail.net) says he
died 1759. and also married Hope Willis Jun 17, 1708?
We have he married Abigail Bates which we found apparently in World
Family Tree.?
IGI NJ shows A Samuel married Hope Wills/Wells April 17, 1708--using Jun
17, 1708 from Larry Nicodermus.
Leaving Abigail Bates with all their children we found on World Family
Tree and adding Hope Willis as a first wife??? Abigail's kids were not
born until starting 1747 so maybe Hope Willis died early???

Notes:

On April 1, 1640 he was chosen to a Dorchester, Massachusetts town office
and was made freeman of the court of Boston on May 13, 1640.
On July 6, 1651 he was formally excomminicated and in 1652 he returned to
England. Shortly thereafter he became a member of the Society of
Friends. In Febuary of 1655 the mayor of Plymouth, England casued him to
be arrested and imprisoned for having asserted that "Christ was the word
of God and the Scriptures a declaration of teh mind of God."
In May, 1655 (acording to Sewll's History of the Quakers) he testified
against the acts of the mayor and the falsehood of the charges brought
against him and was released. He was arrested again in 1660 on similar
charges.
In 1661 or 1662 he sailed again for New England and this time took up
residence in Rhode Island.
He received patent for land in New Jersy and was among the earliest
settles in Shrewsbury, NJ, being a founding member of the Shrewsbury
Meeting, which for a long time met at his house.
in 1669 he was elected a member of the governor's council as one of the
representatives from Shrewbury but, being unwilling to take the oath of
allegiance unless it contained a provision guarenteeing the patent rights
of teh Monmouth towns he was not allowed to take his seat.
In 1670 the first meeting for wotrship was formed by the Friends and in
1672 was visited by George Fox, who was entertained during his stay by
Richard. Soon thereafter, Richard made another, final voyage to England,
where he was when John Fenwick was preparing to West Jersey; and on
August 9, 1676, he obtained from Fenwick a patent for one thousand acres
of land in his colony (probably as speculation since neither he nor his
childeren every occupied it.
Notes from Darrell Lippincott:
Richard and his wife were residents of Dorchester, MA in 1639 and members
of the Puritan Church. On 1 Apr 1640 Richard was chosen as a Town
Officer Dorchester and admitted as "Freeman" of the Massachussets Bay
Colony by the General Court of Boston of 13 May 1640. About 1643 they
settled in Boston and formed a connection with the church in 1644. In
1651 he was excommunicated from "ye church of dorchester...for
withdrawing communion from ye fellowship of ye church and being demanded
a ground of his so walking, he would give none but said he wanted a
commission to speak; whereupon for not hearing ye church in their
convincing arguments, was excommunicated from ye fellowship of ye church
of ye 6 of ye 5th mo. 1651. in ye name of Lord Jesus and with ye consent
of ye church, being admonished twice before."
In 1652 Richard returned with his family to England where he made a home
in Plymouth, Devonshire and became allied with the Society of Friends.
About 4 years later he is found defvending the Friends and residing in
Stone House, a parish near Plymouth. In Feb of 1655 he was arrested by
the Mayor and confined in or near the Castle of Exeter. Again on January
20, 1660 he was arrested by the Mayor. Richard, Thomas Hooten and
Margaret Kellam were taken from a meeting at Plymouth and sent to the
High Goal at Exon (Exeter). The were later released at the solicition of
Margaret Fell (who became the wife of George Fox in 1669) and others who
were influential with the newly restored King Charles II in granting
liberation of Friends. Owing to the mistreatment of Quakers in England
Richard and family returned to America in 1663, settling first in Rhode
Island because of the freedom offered there to Friends for the exercise
of their worship. He joined in the formation of an association at
Newport, RI in 1664 for the purpose of securing title from the Indians to
a large tract of land in NJ was was the largest contributor to the funds
raised for that purpose. The purchase was effected from Indian Sachem
(Popomma) on 8 Apr 1665 and the land was confirmed to the RI company the
next day by patent from Gov N

Abigail Lippincott died in Aug 20, 1697, leaving a considerable estate,
having given freedom to all her slaves before her death.
There are some that disagree with Abigail's last name of Goody. No where
can it be found?? One said that the men during that time called their
wives "Goody".
