52 ANCESTORS IN 52 WEEKS 2018 WEEK 11: ROBERT CARVER OFMARSHFIELD, MA.
My 9x great grandfather Robert Carver is related to John Carver, the first governor of Plymouth Colony, although there is a dispute whether they were brothers or if Robert is the nephew of
the Governor. This is another case where I lived in a town where I didn't know that one of my ancestors had lived there centuries before me. Green Harbor is part of Marshfield, Ma., I found
the following in Memorials of Marshfield and Guide Book to Its Localities at Green Harbor by
Marcia Abiah Thomas:
Robert Carver had lands granted him at Green Harbor, 1638. In 1643, a farm was given him lying between the estates of Edward Winslow and William Thomas. This had been given by Edward Winslow to the town, for the better accommodation of a neighborhood; and was transferred, with Winslow's approval, to John Thomas, 1649, with the housing and fencing thereon. Carver removed
to another grant, near Mr. Bulkely's and Goodman Dingley's.
Robert Carver d. 1680, aged 86, having outlived his wife Christian, 22 years. They had one son, John, who m. Mellicent Ford, 1658, and deceased, 1649, aged 42. His widow m. Thomas Drake of Weymouth.p53
