Notes for Capt. John Tuttle II:
[Willey Family Tree 16 Jan 2005.FTW]
In a military capacity, Judge Tuttle appears to have "done the state some service".Dover had one military company.It's officers were apointed by the Governor and Council, and were selected for their fitness, especially at this period when a bloody war was raging between the whites and the Indians.While captain, he had charge of all the military defences of Dover, and was often engaged with his company, or with soldiers sent to him, in scouting and hunting after the Indian enemy.The Council and Assembly records of these years show, to some extent, what his arduous military duties were while Chief Military Officer of Dover.
Judge Tuttle died in June 1720 leaving a large estate, which he disposed of by will amoung his children and grandchildren.His wife, Mary survived him, and was executrix of his will.Lieutenant Tristram Heard & Captain Francis Matthews were named in the will as trustees of his grandchildren.
John was Captain of the Dover Military Company; Judge of Their Majesties' Court of Common Pleas, province of New Hampshire; Selectman of Dover 1686-1688; Town Clerk 1694-1717; Town Treasurer [tax collector]; Member of the Provincial Assembly, 1698-1699 1705-1707. He was Chairman of the Board of Public Surveyors of Land. He was one of the leading members of the church at Dover, and with other members of the the General Assembly in 1698 subscribed to a declaration adversely to transubstantiation, the invocation or adoration of the Virgin Mary or any other Saint, and the Sacrifice of the Mass, as "superstitious and idolatrous". As Captain of the Dover Co., he had charge of the defenses of the town, and was often with his Co. in scouting and hunting expeditions against the Indians. The hill at his home farm was always referred to as "Captains Hill". He gave it to his son Ebenezer, who later sold it in 1738 to Judge Willet.

Notes for William Sprague: [Willey Family Tree 16 Jan 2005.FTW] The best and fullest account of Ralph, Richard and William Sprague was published in 1923 by George Walter Chamberlain [The Spragues of Malden, Massachusetts (Boston 1923), cited above as Spragues of Malden]. Chamberlain included many English records, including items from Fordington St. George, the home of this family, and also including the will of Edward Sprague, the father of the three brothers. Chamberlain's treatment of the immigrants Ralph and Richard Sprague is exhaustive with full transcripts of wills and other documents, and facsimiles of some of the records. As Richard had no children and William moved to Hingham, the bulk of the book traces the descendants of Ralph. George Walter Chamberlain, (The Spragues of Malden, Massachusetts (Boston 1923) ) |
