John Howard and his wife Martha (Hayward) Howard had seven children. It is with them that the
complicated relationships with the Packard, Fobes and Keith familes start:
JOHN m. Sarah Latham. John Jr. owned land in an area of Bridgewater known as Joppa, which is now part of East Bridgewater. It is near Route 18 and there was a restaurant located there called the Joppa Grill. When I went to college in Bridgewater I went through that area every day and never knew it was connected to my family.
JAMES. m. Elizabeth Washburn. James died in 1690 during the New England colony's attack on Canada.
JONATHAN. m. Susannah Keith
ELIZABETH, m. Edward Fobes. Their daughter Elizabeth would marry Joseph Keith.
SARAH, m. Zacheus Packard. Their son James married Jemima Keith, daughter of Elizabeth Fobes and Joseph Keith
BETHIAH, m. Henry Kingman
EPHRAIM, m. Mary Keith
I'll be discussing Martha (Hayward) Howard's father Thomas Hayward next.
