Nicholas WILBORE [1] |
- "The Wildbores in America": Nicholas of Braintree and Sible Hedingham, co Essex, according to the parish records of Sible Hedingham was buried there 11 Sept. 1611. He was the father of Samuel Wilbore, the emigrant to America. He married, first, Mary Plume, baptized in Great Yeldham 9 Oct. 1566, died before 1597, when Elizabeth, the second wife of Nicholas, is mentioned in the Court of Chancery. Mary Plume was the daughter of Robert and Elizabeth (Purchas) Plume and granddaughter of John and Elizabeth Plume of Great Yeldham, co. Essex. Robert Plume held several halls in Yeldham Magna, including Spaynes Hall in Yeldham Magna and Hawkenden Hall in Clare, so. Suffolk. A member of his family, John Plume (Robert3, Robert 2, John1), went to America and is the ancestor of the Plum family there. Nicholas Wilbore married, secondly, before 1597, Elizabeth (Thickines) Harrington, widow of Robert Harrington, vicar of Sible Hedinghan, who was buried there 10 Aug 1594. He was a graduate of Cambridge, and his record is given in Alumni Canabriengensis, Vol. 2, p. 311. "Harrington, Robert, Matric pensioner, from Queens Easter 15667 of Essex, B.A. 1570. Ma. 1574, B.D. 1582, Fellow 1572, Rector of Sible Hedingham, Essex 1574-1594. Died 1594." He was married in Black Notley, co. Essex, 1 May 1581, to Elizabeth thickines. This marriage was discovered by Mr. Waldo C. Sprague in 1958.
From the Chancery Proceedings of Elizabeth, W.W. 20 #32 (1597). Nicholas Wilbore and Elizabeth, his wife, the plaintiffs, and Margaret and William Sydey, defendants, claim by devise a messuage and land in Much Maplestead and Little Maplestead late of Robert Harrington, clerk, late husband of the plaintiff, Elizabeth, who devised the same to her for life.
The wil of Robert Harringon was destroyed; so there was no evidence of Elizabeth Wilbore's rights to ownership of this land.
Elizabeth (Thickines) Harrington, the second wife of Nicholas Wilbore, made her will (No. 9), 12 May 1619, and it was proved in Braintree 21 March 1624. In it she names her sons, Edmund, robert, and Samuel. She mentions also her son, John Harrington, and daughter, Elizabeth Wutton, wife of John Wutton. At first it would seem that all of these children mentioned, with the exception of John, were Wilbores. As the last names were not given, it was impossible to tell what their last names were. After more study it is plain that all of these children are Harringtons, with the exception of Samuel Wilbore. She also mentioned her brothers-in-law, Francis Whiston and Francis Walford.
Nicholas Wilbore was mentioned in the will of his father in 1582, by which he received the house called Cherkin with tenements, his field called Bartlett's field. He was also mentioned in the will of his Uncle William, but it is so torn that some of the names are gone. [1]
