Anthony EMERY

- Aft 1680

• Name	Anthony EMERY  [3, 4, 5]
  	Anthony Emery was born in Romsey Hants, England, where he lived until April 1635 when he sailed in the ship James from Southhampton. A Quaker, he first settled in New Brunswick. In 1650 he moved to Dover and by 1651 was in Cold Harbour, Kittery, Maine. He had a license to sell beer and wine. He married Frances (?) and may have had a second wife. [1] The last record that we find of him living is that of a deed of land in Portsmouth to Rebecca Sadler, his daughter, dated March 9, 1680. It is barely pssible that her returned to Kittery, and that Anthony Emery who was a representative from Kittery at York, March 30, 1680, was our ancestor, but it does not seem probable that he, an old man, disfranchised, would after twenty years' absence, be chosen to legislate for the "province of Mayne."
