Notes:

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]
