Notes about Nathaniel Foote Sr.

Nathaniel Foote, the emigrant ancestor, born in England in 1593, came to New England with his wife Elizabeth born about 1595. Nathaniel died in Nov 1644. He married Elizabeth Deming born about 1595, and died 28 Jul 1683. ( She was the sister of Mr. John Deming, also one of Weth's first settlers...and one of the patentees named in its Charter) whom he had married about 1514, in England. They had seven children, all, with, perhaps, the exception of the youngest, born in England.

Mr Foote... was one of the first ten men, known as "adventurers, " who absolutely first settled here... His wife was Elizabeth Deming, whom he married in England about 1615. He died in 1644, age about 51 years; his widow then married about 1646, Mr. Thomas Welles, Magistrate, afterwards Governor of the Colony, whom also she survived, dying 28 July 1683, age about 88 years.

A conspicuous feature in the history of the first generations of the Foote family, is the deaths, sufferings and captivities of its members and of those connected with them by marriage, at the hands of the Indians.

Their children were:

Nathaniel born about 1620, married Elizabeth Smith, who married second William Gull

Robert born about 1627 married Sarah, she married second Aaron Blachley

Elizabeth born about 1616 married Josiah Churchill

Mary born about 1623 married first John Stoddard, second John Goodrich, third Lt. Thomas Tracy

Frances born about 1629 married first John Dickenson, second Francis Barnard

Sarah born about 1632 married Jeremiah Judson, he married second wid. Cath. Fairchild

Rebecca born about 1634 married first Lt. Phillip Smith, second Aaron Cooke ("The history of ancient Wethersfield")

Description

Joanna does not belong in this family.

Joanna was born in Devonshire while the other children born in England were born in or near Colchester, Essex.

They could not have had Robert born 8 Dec 1627 and Joanna born 1 Apr 1628.

Joanna is not mentioned in the will of her supposed mother Elizabeth (Deming) (Foote) Wells. Elizabeth's will was dated 28 March 1678. The fact that Joanna was already dead would not be why she was not mentioned. Sarah was already dead, but she is mentioned. Elizabeth left nine pounds to the children of "my Daughter Sarah Judson Deceased". She then mentioned her "foure [sic] daughters, viz, my daughter Churchill, my daughter Goodrich, my Daughter Barnard, & my Daughter Smith".

Daughter Churchill was Elizabeth, wife of Josiah Churchill.
Daughter Goodrich was Mary, wife of John Goodrich.
Daughter Barnard was Frances, wife of Francis Barnard.
Daughter Smith was Rebecca, wife of Philip Smith.

So Joanna (-----) Kellogg was not mentioned in the will and is not a daughter in this family.

See sources above, Manwaring's Early Connecticut Probate Records for a link to a transcript of Elizabeth's will. Less
