Generation: 1
1. | Jonathan FAIRBANKS was born in England; died on 28 Jan 1711/2 in Dedham, Norfolk Co., Massachusetts. Notes:
Name:
Jonathan Fairbanks, born in England; admitted townsman in Dedham 'ye 1 of ye 11: 1654," and signed the covenant. Resided in Dedham. He died Jan. 28, 1711/2.
He was a soldier in King Philip's War, serving in the first or Mt. Hope campaign in 1675, also in several subsequent campaigns. His name appears in the list of "Assignment of Wages" to the town of Roxbury, Aug. 26, which leads to the supposition that at that time he resided there, for it was the custom of the times for soldiers to assign their wages to the towns in which they resided in order that their families could be provided for.
Jonathan married Deborah SHEPARD on 10 May 1643. Deborah died on 7 Sep 1705. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
