Ben Albee info up date

By Chuck DuBay January 28, 2007 at 05:44:44


I am still searching for informationon our common ancester Bejamin Albee. Still haven't the exact date of his birth or which shire he came from in Norwich.
There was a notation of a Mr Albee a religious disenter leaving Norwich, also in the Norwich records, Benjamin Albee, gentleman is mentioned.
The best information that i could find is that his father was Edward Albee born 1575 in Ipswich , England.
Benjamin was born in Norwich in 1614, i believe Hannah Miller was also born there in 1618. They left from Ipswich in 1638 in one of the ships of Winthrop fleet. Probably inthe Francis captained by John Cutting. Benjamin and Hannah were married in Braintree 7/29/1639. A note in the Mass. Eclop. says" Edward Albee and his son Benjamin sailed from Ipswich aboard the ship Francis for Boston 1637-39". As there is no more informationon Edward i assume he diedduring the trip. As many 30 people died on ships crossing and were buried at sea and he would have 63 years old.
If the John Albee mentioned was his brother he must have come on an earlier ship. The Francis did make a trip in 1635 and there was a John Abbe(maybe a mis-spelling)aboard possibly him. There was no list on the 1638 Francis trip. John married hadone daughter left for Salem Ma. last info on him , he was living Charlestown Ma.
Benjamin died in Swansea in 1686 -
If you add anything to please let me know.
