Family of John Mansfield (513) & Elizabeth [Mansfield]

1699. Elizabeth Mansfield. Born ca 1592 in Oxfordshire, England.Elizabeth was baptized in Henley-On-Thames, Oxfordshire, on 3 Dec1592.84 Elizabeth died ca 1658 in Boston, MA.5 Buried in Kings ChapelBurying Ground, Boston.

Elizabeth came to New England in 1632, two years after her husband.84

ca 1616 Elizabeth married Rev. John Wilson (2376) , son of Rev.William Wilson (633) (ca 1542-May 1615) & Isabel Woodhall (4795) (ca1546-bef 1615). Born ca Dec 1588 in Windsor, Berkshire.115 John diedon 7 Aug 1667 in Boston, MA.115 Buried in Kings Chapel Burying Ground,Boston. Education: King’s College, Cambridge 1610, MA 1613.

According to Savage,2 John attended “Eton school, went to theUniversity of Cambridge in 1602, as Mather tells, much of whose storyof his early days has apocryphal sound, there of Christ's College hadhis A. B. 1605-6, and A. M. 1609, as by me in the registry of theUniversity seen, though Mather would have it Emanuel; and Farmerwrites at King's, where, indeed, may, as the Magnalia tells, have beenthe adm. After serving as chaplain in several houses, he was inductedat Sudbury in the south border of County Suffolk; there contined tenor twelve years but disgusted with the worhsip of forms and vestmentsgrowing in the church he encouraged the colonization of theMassachusetts Bay, and came 1630, with the Gov. and Company bringiingthe charter in the Arbella. His wife Elizabeth whose name is notdistinct. read in Mather, though in his usual roundabout way he says,Magn. III. cap. 3, p. 42, that Wilson designed to marry a daught ‘ofthe lady Mansfield, widow of Sir John,’ remained in England probablywith care of the church.”
John “went back to Eng. and came again 1632, he brought [his wife] andson John, but the oldest son perhaps never was on this side of theocean. The wife was sister of the wife of Robert Keayne, and herbrother John with his family got over to Boston, two years later, inpoverty; and tormented Keayne very much, if his will be good evidenceas may, partly, be read in Geneal. Reg. VI. 156. He made a secondvoyage to Eng. 1634, and came again in the summer, of 1635, which ledme [Savage] to mistake, formerly, the time of his wife’s coming, asshe did not join our church before 20 Mar. 1636; whereas we see thatthis daughter Mary was baptized 8 Sept. 1633, unless the church recordmeans a week later, the copy of town record certifies that she wasborn 12 Sept. He had requested admisson as freeman 19 Oct. 1630, andwas sworn 3 July 1632, and died 7 Aug. 1667, and was buried on theSunday following. Of the good desert of the first minister of Boston,abundant proof is found in the Magn. III. cap. 3, with some fewlamentable characteristics of the author, perhaps little to beregarded in derogotory from the character of Wilson. Yet of one traitin him, the zeal for the glory of God, as exhib. at ‘Ill Newes fromNew England’ where the testimony of Obadiah Holmes, the bapt.confessor, is fully given we must regret that it surpassed the limitsof self-respect, as well as common decency. Holmes tells after hissentence to imprisonm. and cruel scourg.€˜as I went from the Bar, Iexprest myself in these words; I bless God I am count. worthy tosuffer for the name of Jesus; whereupon John Wilson (their Pastor asthey call him) strook me bef. the judgment-seat. and cursed me,saying, the curse of God or Jesus go with thee.’ For the imprecationupon the heretic lenity may be extended as we hope, by the finalJudge, when he cometh in the clouds of heaven: but at the tribunal ofgentlement the assault on a defenceless prisoner, even thoughconvicted by his own confession of the crime of preaching what hethought truth, meets no indulgence. Graditude has always been express,for the found. of Boston church no doubt in some degree arising fromthe munificent contribribution of £1,000 by his brother William inEngland and the most judicious investment of part of that sum as inCol. Rec. I. 128 alluded to, and may by any minute antiquary be seenin 2 Mass. Hist. Coll. VIII. 228, all assisting in keeping active thegenerous emotion.”

From Joseph Gardner Bartlett’s article “Ancestry and descendants ofRev. John Wilson of Boston, Mass”:115
“After four year’s preparation at Eton school, he was admitted toKing’s College, Cambridge, in 1602. While at the University he becamedeeply interested in the theological discussions of the day, and underthe influence of Rev. Richard Rogers of Wethersfield, and of thecelebrated Rev. William ames, D.D., he soon became converted to theprinciples of the Puritans. His nonconformity resulted in his beingobliged to leave the University for a time, and he entered one of theInns of Court to study for the legal profession; but his dispositionfor the ministry continuing, by the father’s influence he was returnedto the University, where, at Christ College, he obtained the degree ofB.A. in 1606, and M.A. in 1609.
“After preaching for a short time at Newport, Mortlake, henley, andother places, he lived for some years as chaplain in several honorablefamilies. Then, for three years, he preached at Bumstead, Stoke,Clare, and Candish, all in co. Suffolk, until about 1620, whe hesucceeded the Rev. William Jenkins at Sudbury, co. Suffolk, where heofficiated some ten years with great acceptance to his parishioners.Being here persecuted and frequently suspended, for hisnon-conformity, he encouraged and supported the colonization of theMassachusetts Bay, and joined the first emigration, eoming to NewEngland in the Spring of 1630, in the Arbella, with Gov. Winthrop,leaving his wife an children in England. Soon after the arrival of thecompany, the First Church of Boston was organized, on Jul 30, 1630,John Wilson being installed as teacher. After laboring for nearly ayear, and filling an important part in establishing the colony on apermanently prosperous basis, he went back to England in Apr., 1631,returning to Boston in May, 1632, with his wife, son John, anddaughter Elizabeth. A few months after his return, he was installed aspastor of the church, on Nov. 23, 1632, being succeeded as teacher bythe celebrated Rev. John Cotton.
“In the autumn of 1631, Mr. Wilson made another voyage to England, tosettle the estate of his brother Edmund, but returned to Boston inOct. 1635, and continuted as pastor for thirty-five years, until hisdeath, Aug. 7, 1667, being associated, after Mr. Cotton’s death in1652, with Rev. John Norton as teacher. During his ministry, hefrequently made visits to the Indian settlements with Rev. John Eliot,the ‘Apostle,’ and labored as a missionary to the savages.
“Many contemporary writers and records bear witness to the high esteemand veneration in which Rev. John Wilson was held. While not endowedwith as brilliant talents as the Rev. John Cotton, he was,nevertheless, a devout, learned, zealous, and able man, and hissympathetic nature, kindness of heart, and generosity to the needy,greatly endeared him to his parishoners. Of his character, CottonMather says: ‘If the picture of this good and therein great man wereto be exactly give, great zeal with great love would be the twoprincipal strokes that joined with orthodoxy should make up hisportraiture.’ His zeal in the ‘orthodoxy’ of his religious views,however, was carried to intolerance and bigotry, as was commonly thecase in that period of strenuous religious opinions. His portrait inoil is in the possession of the Massachusetts Historical Society.
“Among his published works were: ‘Some Helps to Faith’ (London, 1625);‘Famous Deliverances of the English Nation,’ a poem (London, 1626); aLatin poem to the memory of Rev. John Harvard; and a tract, ‘The DayBreaking if not the Sun Rising, of the Gospel with the Indians in NewEngland’ (1647).
“Mr. Wilson’s house and garden in Boston were situated on thenorth-west corner of the present State and Devonshire streets.Portions of this property he disposed of during his lifetime, and theremainder he deeded to his son John and daughter Mary Danforth, on May31, 1667. (Suffolk Co. Deeds, vol. v., fol. 233.) They sold it toHezekiah Usher, on July 2, 1668, for £433.7.0. (Ibid, vol. x. fol.98.) On Apr. 1, 1634, Mr. Wilson was granted two hundred acres at‘Mystic’ by the General Court (Mass. Colony Records, vol. i, p. 114),,and this farm, covering what is now the Wellington districtg ofMedford, he sold to Thomas Blanchard, on Feb. 12, 1650-1. (Suffolk Co.Deeds, vol. i, fol. 223). On Dec. 8, 1634, he was givena grant ofland at Braintree, by the town of Boston, on condition that he wouldrelinquish to the town the grant at ‘Mastic’ by the General Court: butas he was obliged to go to considerable expe4nse to secure a cleartitle, it was voted on Dec. 4, 1635, that he be allowed the Braintreegrant in addition to the Mystic grant. (Boston Town Records, RecordCommisioners’ Report, vol. ii, p. 2, 6.) This Braintree grant,comprising some 750 acres, was over half a mile wide, and locatedonboth sides of the present line of the Old Colony Rail Road, andextended from the vicinity of Squantum street in Wollaston southwardto beyond Adams street in Quincy. This farm (which was rented toAlexander Marsh, Thomas Faxon, and others, for many years), Mr. Wilsongave by deed, on May 31, 1667, to his son John and daughter MaryDanforth. (Suffolk Co. Deeds, vol. v, fol. 233.) They divided theproperty in 1687, Rev. John Wilson, Jr., taking the southern portion,and his sister thenorthern part. (Suffolk Co. Deeds, vol. xxvi, fol.8.) The southern portion was occupied by Dr. John Wilson (son of Rev.John of Medfield, and grandson of Rev. John of Boston) from 1692 untilhis death in 1728, and a small part of it continued in the possessionof his lineal male descendants until the death of his grandon Dr. JohnWilson of Sherborn in 1756. (Suffolk Co. Deeds, vol. cvi, fol. 187.)
“In 1637, Rev. John Wilson went as chaplain in the expedition againstthe Pequot Indians, and for this service received a grant of onethousand acres from the General Court, on June 6, 1639. (Mass. ColonyRecords, vol. i, p. 263.) After several changes, this grant wasfinally located, on Oct. 16, 1660, on both sides of the SouheganRiver, in the present towns of Amherst and Merrimack, N.H. (Mass.Colony Records, vol. iv, p. 412); and on Dec. 3, 1660, was sold by Mr.Wilson to simon Lynde of Boston (Suffolk Co. Deeds, vol. iii, fol.449).
“His will, dated May 31, 1667, names wife Elizabeth deceased; grandsonJohn Wilson, Jr., under age, and grand-daughter Bridget wife ofNicholas Prideaux, merchant, of Barbadoes, children of his deceasedson Dr. Edmund Wilson of London; son Rev.
