Elijah ALDEN [2] |
- Elijah, of Middleborough, was a private in the American revolution serving in Capt. Amos Wade's (3d) company, which marched on the alarm of 19 April 1775, to Marshfield with service of three days. He also served in Capt. Joshua White's company, Col. Ebenezer White's regiment; he enlisted on 1 August 1780 and was discharged on 9 August 1780 with service of nine days on an alarm at Rhode Island; the company marched to Tiverton, Rhode Island (DAR Patriot Index; MSSR, 1:106).
In 1790, the household of Elijah Alden of Middleborough consisted of one male over age 16, three males under 16, and four females (M637-4, p 358).
On 7 June 1798 John Alden of Middleborough, yeoman, gave to his son Elijah Alden of Middleborough, yeoman, 40 1/2 acres (Plymouth Co LR, 85:123).
In 1800, there was one male under 10, two males 10-16, one male 16-26, one male over 45, two females under 10, one female 10-16, two females 16-26, and one female over 45 in Elijah Alden's household (M32-16, p.69A). In 1810 there was one male under 10, one male 10-16, two males 16-26, one male over 45, one female 10-16, three females 16-26, and one female over 45 (M252-21 p.100). Elijah is not indexed in the 1820 census.
Elijah Alden, yeoman of Middleborough, for love gave to his sons Jared and Elijah, Jr., of Middleborough, yeoman, 'My house and lot where I now live, reserving certain privileges until I finished my new house"; wife Molly released, but signed Mary, 18 May 1814 (Plymouth Co LR, 126:208).
At the Court of Common Pleas held in Plymouth in August 1817, Elijah Alden of Middleborough, yeoman, executor of the estate of Solomon Alden of Bridgewater, yeoman, for two sums of $500 and interest due Molly under Solomon's will dated 27 November 1813. The sums were supposed to have been paid one year after both Solomon and his wife were dead, with the second sum due only on condition that Elijah pay a note for L222.8s. with interest. Solomon and his wife had been dead more than one year and Elijah had paid the note. The court ruled for the defendant; the plaintiffs appealed, but no further record appears (Plymouth Co Ct recs CD, vol.13(26:373-378).
No probate record was found for Elijah in plymouth County. on 8 October 1835, jared, Elijah, and Daniel Alden, all of Middleborough, sold to a partnership, land in Halifax that was "our late father Elijah Alden's deceased" (Plymouth Co LR 178:77).
