Name:
Samuel Boreman of Wethersfield, Conn., son of Christopher and Julian (Carter) Boreman of Claydon, near Banbury, Oxfordshire, England, was born in Banbury in 1615, and baptized there Aug. 20, 1615.

He removed with his father's family about 1619, from Banbury to Claydon, their early home. he married, date unknown, Mary Betts, daughter of John and Mary Betts, who were of Claydon in 1627, and afterwards emigrated to New England, where the mother, then the "Widoe" Mary Betts, had a portion in the first grants of land in Hartford, Conn, and died there in the summer of 1647, being then called "the School Dame."

Samuel Boreman's first appearance as a settler in New England is at Ipswich, Mass., where, in a list of inhabitants without date, he is called a cooper, and has land recorded to him, Aug. 22, 1639. He was no doubt in the country some time before this date, having very possibly arrived the preceding summer, when, as we learn fromGovernor Winthrop's Journal, very many came over. Among the twenty ships which arrived that season, was one called the "New supply, alias the Nicholas" of London, in which came Mr. John Josslyn, Gent., who kept a journal of this voyage, and also of one taken some years later, both of which were published in London in 1675. It is not only interesting, but curious, that Josselyn, who gives the names of very few on board, including those of not more than two or thee of the 164 passengers, should have happened to mention among the latter one called Boreman; he says:

"Anno Dom. 1638 April the 26, being Thursday, I came to Gravesend and went aboard the new Supply alias the Nicholas of London, a Ship of good force, 300 tons burthen, carrying 20 Sacret and minion, man'd with 48 sailors. The Master, Robert Taylor, the Merchant or Undertake, Mr. Edward Tings, with 164 passengers, men, women, and children."

Further he says: " On the eighth day, one Boreman's man, a passenger, was duck'd at the main yards Arm (for being drunk with his master's strong waters which he stole) thrice, and fire given to two whole Sacree at that instant."

Samuel married Mary BETTS. Mary was born about 1623 in England; died in Aug 1684. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Name:
Christopher and his wife removed after their marriage to Banbury, the principal town in the neighborhood, about seven miles south of Claydon, and there the baptisms of five of their children are recorded. On the death of Julian's father, Felix Carter, they returned to Claydon, probably to live with and care for the widowed mother. Margaret, and their two youngest children were baptized there. As there were five daughters in the family, one of them, whose baptism is not found, was born, perhaps, about the time of their removal.

Christopher Boreman was evidently not a husbandman, but was master of some trade at which he was employed in the thriving town of Banbury. When his sister-in-law, Elizabeth, mother of Thomas Boreman of Ipswich, made her will, he was one of those whom she asked to be an overseer, and he was also one of the witnesses to it, signing with his name, not mark. He died about 10 years after his return to Claydon, and was buried there April 1, 1640. This record of his burial was an important help in the identification of the family of Samuel Boreman, whose father is known to have died about that time.

While most others of our Boreman family in England are comparative strangers, only recently introduced to our acquaintance, Julian's has always been a household name among her New England descendants, and we come upon her again in hr English home as an old friend. it is pleasant to find that the impression of the graces of her character derived from hr letter is strengthened by what is now learned of her. It is evident that she was a family favorite. When her parents grew old, and hr father was about to die, she was sent for to be with the, and to care for her other's declining days. On this account, perhaps, her father's house and part of his land were given to her. Her mother, in her will, made Julian her residuary legatee, and when hr youngest brother, Richard Carter, died unmarried in his 25th year, he singled hr out from all his brothers and sisters by a special remembrance. The last we hear of her is in the letter of hr daughter, Elizabeth Middleton of London; she was then in 1661, living and in good health at the age of 78, surrounded probably by most of children. She had passed, apparently unharmed, through the horrors of a war that raged for years, with all its attendant evils, at her very door, and we will trust that her few remaining days were peaceful and happy.

Christopher married Julian CARTER on 19 Nov 1604. Julian (daughter of Felix CARTER and Margaret ?) was christened on 20 Dec 1583; died after 1661. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
