CHILDREN:

i MERCY HOAR, b. Taunton 31 January 1654[/5?] [PCR 8:39; MD18:169]; m. Dorchester 26 December 1676 John Spurr [DVR 23].

ii NATHANIEL HOAR, b. Taunton 31 March 1656 [PCR 8:39; MD18:169]; m. Taunton 2 February 1681[/2?] Sarah Wilbore [PCR 8:80], daughter of Shadrach Wilbore [NEHGR 64:29-30, citing BrPR 1:213].

iii SARAH HOAR, b. Taunton 1 April 1658 [PCR 8:39; MD 18:169]; m. Taunton 25 February 1691/2 Nicholas Stoughton.

iv ELIZABETH HOAR, b. Taunton 26 May 1660 [PCR 8:39; MD18:169]; m. by about 1690 (and perhaps a few years earlier) WilliamTurpin [Austin 209-10].

v EDWARD HOAR, b. Taunton 25 September 1663 [PCR 8:39; MD18:169]; removed to Philadelphia by 21 March 1710/1 [BrLR 8:87].

vi LYDIA HOAR, b. Taunton 24 March 1665[/6?] [PCR 8:39; MD18:169]; m. Taunton 16 November 1688 John Whipple. (Lydia had an illegitimate son, named variously "Job Liddeason" or "Job Whipple," and born close to the date of her marriage [TAG 44:187-88].)

vii MARY HOAR, b. Taunton 22 September 1669 [PCR 8:39; MD18:169]; m. Boston 2 December 1698 Duncan Mackum [BVR 244].

viii REBECCA HOAR, b. say 1671; m. Taunton 20 February 1690[/1?]Samuel Smith.

ix HEZEKIAH HOAR, b. Taunton 10 November 1678 [PCR 8:83]; m. by about 1701 Sarah Brightman, daughter of Henry Brightman [NEHGR 142:18,citing BrPR 6:121-23]. (Forty-six years elapsed between the birth of Hezekiah in 1678 and the birth of the eldest child of his eldest child in1724 [NEHGR 142:20]. His date of marriage has been estimated simply by splitting this difference.)

ASSOCIATIONS: Hezekiah Hoar was first cousin of ROGER CLAP {1630,Dorchester} [GMB 1:364-70], the mothers of the two men being sisters [NEHGR 144:144; Kempton Anc 4:122-23]. Perhaps Hezekiah resided at Dorchester prior to his emergence at Taunton.

Savage states that this immigrant was "brother of John," meaning John Hoar of Scituate [Savage 2:430-31]. John Hoar and his siblings and mother were from Gloucester, Gloucestershire [NEHGR 53:92-101, 186-98, 289-300]. [There is no known relationship between these two families.]

COMMENTS: Given the lapse of forty-six years between the birth of this immigrant and the date of birth of his first child, one might wonder whether an additional generation should be inserted in this lineage. Hezekiah Hoar appeared rarely in Taunton from 1639 to 1653 [PCR 2:168,3:31, 8:186, 195]. On the earliest of these dates, the immigrant would have been about thirty-one years old, and so it must be he rather than a putative son of the same name who took the oath of fidelity. In the remaining records down to 1654, the designations of Senior and Junior are not used, and there is no other indication that one generation was succeeded by another. For whatever reason, the immigrant did not marry until he was about forty-five.

Hezekiah Hoar was propounded twice for freemanship [PCR 3:31, 78], but was never admitted to this franchise, as he does not appear in any of the later lists of freemen [PCR 5:276, 8:199, 205-6]. This clearly did not prevent him from serving in a number of minor town and colony offices.

BIBLIOGRAPHIC NOTE: In 1987 Lyon J. Hoard identified the English origin of this immigrant, and published four generations of his agnate ancestry [NEHGR 141:22-33, 142:17-24]. In 1990 Ken Smallbone published additional data which solidified the identification of the immigrant, and provided leads to extending the agnate ancestry a number of generations further back [NEHGR 144:143-46].[robby1940.FTW]
===========================================================

The following is compliments of Robby Robinson
Will
Hezekiah was named in his grandmother Channon's will in 1616,
and he witnessed Combpyne leases inreversion for his two older
half-brothers in 1633, at which time he had already made
arrangements to sail for New England. Record of Hezekiah's
iemigration is found in documents discovered by Peter Wilson
coldham in the Public record Office in London. A port book
entry dated 31 March 1633 lists Ezechia Hore among other
"planters" going to New England with household goods, apparell
and other goods allowed free of customs by patent to sail aboard
the ship "Recovery" of London, Gabriel Cornish master, sailing
from Weymouth, Dorset. Weymouth is about fifteen miles east of
Combpyne by sea, somewhat farther by land. The date of sailing
is not stated, but since a month's time elapsed between the port
book entry and the date on which Hezekiah witnessed the leases,
it is clear that he did not actually leave England until after
30 April 1633.

FREEMAN: Oath of fidelity at Taunton (as "Hezekiah Hore"), 1639 [PCR8:186]. Propounded for freemanship, 7 June 1653, 8 June 1655 [PCR 3:31,78].

OFFICES: Plymouth Colony grand jury, 6 June 1654, 7 June 1665 (absent) [PCR 3:49, 4:91]. Coroner's jury, 5 July 1664 [PCR 4:71].

[[Third generation born in North America.

"Robert Hoar [senior] was a miller and operated a grist mill, which was operating yet in 1792 when it was sold by his son, John. He [Robert Sr.] divided his father's property with only surviving brother, William [the Deacon] in 1765. Robert was a prosperous and active citizen." Norton T. Horr

Two of his children married descendants of George5 Pierce. (GEORGE5, ISAAC4, ISAAC3, ISAAC2, ABRAHAM1)
Jonathan Hoar married Abigail Pierce, and Rachel Hoar married Harmon Pierce-Peirce. Robert's son Peter Hoar married Mercy-Marcy6 Pierce. (Job5, Ebenezer4, Isaac3, Isaac2, Abraham1 PIERCE) I am still searching for the parents of Olive (Polly?) Pierce born 1771.

Could not find him as head of household in 1790 census.

Robert Hoar Sr. married three times. He had one son, Robert Hoar/Horr II with wife Sarah Willis. With wife Judith Tinkham he had three children; Peter, Sarah and Judith. His third wife Rachel had been previously married to Hoskins/Haskins or Hathaway and they had two children John and Rachel.

Found in: "History of Waterford Maine 1775-1875" page 42
" ?..Sept. 8th, of the same year (1873), Philip Hor, originally from Taunton (Ma.), but last from Brookfield, Mass., came to examine a lot of land (Lot.5, Range 9.) which he had previously bought, about half a mile west of Joel Plummer's. The next June two of his sons came with him; they spent the summer clearing land. Late in the fall he returned to Brookfield (Ma.), leaving his sons to brave the severity of a long winter, or go to the older settlements. At that time there was considerable lumbering done in the coast towns. June, 1785, he came with his wife, who was from Norton, Mass. They suffered great hardships on the way. Their household goods were brought from Stevens Brook (Bridgton, Maine) on the backs of those who helped them in; for at this time the Scoggin trail, a mere bridle path, was the only road into Waterford.
They were disappointed in a house and provisions, which they had bargained for. So Mr. Hor built a hut of hemlock bark, and this was their only shelter for two years. They had not even a cow. Their nearest neighbors were three miles away, the Hamlins, who lived south of Tom pond. During six weeks of winter this family saw no human beings but themselves and no animal but a dog. When they wanted meal they had either to back the corn twelve miles to Stevens Brook, or go out and get a horse, which occupied a day, take the grist to mill, which occupied another, and the third day return the horse. Mrs. Hor was for some time the only woman in the plantation in full communion with the church." -

Who was Philip's father?
Comments by Roz: MrsEdson(at)gmail.com
Norton T. Horr, in his book "A Record of Descendants of Hezekiah Hoar" (See page 9: https://archive.org/stream/recordofdescenda00horr#page/8/mode/2up ), states that Philip was son of either William or Isaac. It is my opinion that Philip was a son of Isaac.

Regarding Philip Hor/Horr, born 1734, married Hannah Harodon/Harrodon.

I feel that he (Philip) was most probably son of Isaac Hoar and Abigail Staples, and not son of William Hoar and Sarah Macomber. I would be most interested if anyone should ever find info. that would help my case. What I have so far:

Norton T. Horr (author of : A Record of Descendants of Hezekiah Hoar) says:
1. "Sarah Macomber was dau. of William Macomber". I feel, that although William Macomber (and wife, Sarah Holloway) did have a dau. named Sarah, being born 3-13-1709, she would not have been old enough to marry William Hoar in or around 1715.

2. The Macomber genealogy, pg. 91, says Sarah, dau. of John and Hannah (Bobbit/Babbit) Macomber m. William Hoar abt. 1715 and that this Sarah died 1757 as opposed to Norton's date of 1753.

3. As to the children of William Hoar and Sarah Macomber, Norton T. Horr says:
"A careful search of all known records fails to disclose the names of his (William Hoar's) children, except Anna. He [William Hoar] and his brother Isaac were the only ones of the name then in Taunton whose children are not known. There is strong evidence to believe that he had: Jacob, d. 1756, Ruth, Anna who married (Seth) Hodges; and Philip".

4. I think it has become accepted, by now, that Anna (who married Seth Hodges) was dau. of Jonathan Hoar and not William Hoar based on what the Macomber genealogy says on pg. 14: "Sept 8, 1735 Jonathan Hoar petitioned the court to appoint a guardian for his daughter Anna, who was then seven years old and had a claim on the estate of John Macomber through her mother".

5. I feel that Philip Hoar/Hor was a son of Isaac Hoar and Abigail Staples because this family also used surname Hor.
Philip Hoar/Hor m. Hannah Haradon/Harradon.
The Haradon/Harradon family was of Norton, Ma.
Philip Hoar/Hor was of Norton Ma. before moving to Maine.
Charity, dau. of Isaac Hoar and Abigail Staples m. John Harodon/Harrodon who was brother of Hannah Harodon/Harrodon who married Philip Hoar/Hor.

6. At the time of Norton's book he (Norton Horr) apparently did not know Philip's date of birth since it is not included. Philip was born 1734. This date fits better with Isaac Hoar/Hor's children then with m. date of 1715 for William and Sarah (Macomber) Hoar. (Philip would have been born 18/19 yrs. after their marriage...Possible but I think improbable.) Philip and Hannah (Harradon) Hoar/Hor named one son Isaac and named no son William. And since Norton says that William and Isaac Hoar were the only ones whose children were not known...I think it's a pretty good case, so far, for Philip to be son of Isaac Hoar/Hor and not William Hoar.

DAR Patriot Index - Centennial Edition - Part 2- page 1441. The info is as
follows: "Philip: b c 1732 MA d 11-14-1822 ME m Hannah Harraden Pvt MA."

Philip married Hannah Haradon about 1757 in Norton, Bristol Co, Massachusetts, USA. Hannah (daughter of William Haradon and Abigail Gray) was born on 13 Feb 1734 in Norton, Bristol Co, Massachusetts, USA; died in in . [Group Sheet]

What could be a more fitting
memorial to one of our most
g e n e r o u ; and visionary pioneers
than our beautiful twin parks
located in t h e center of the
village?! Hezekiah Barker who
bought a great tract of land in
180(5 gave acres of his' holdings,
including that land, for the
benefit and enjoyment of the
s e t t l e r s of Canadaway.
Mr. Barker was about 50
years of cge w h e n he came here
and built his cabin. The following
year he brought his wife,
Sarah Wood, and their eight
children. The Barkers were
T b o th natives of Rhode Island,
he, one of nine children of John
Barker and Rebecca Hoar, was
born at Middletown April 14,
2 757. She was t h e d a u g h t e r of
George and Desire Grey Wood
and was born Dec. 30, 1764.
They were* m a r r i e d Nov. 27,
1783 at Little Compton, R. I.
The Barker children were;
Barzillai, William, Zabiah, Desire,
Sarah, Samuel, John and
Charlc<. Two of the daughters
married men who also had prominent
parts in the early life
of our settlement. Desire married
Leverett Barker (no blood
r e l a t i on to Hezekiah) and S a r ah
m a r r i e d Dr. S q u i r e White, said
to have, been the first licensed
physician in the county. It was
Leverett Barker's son, Darwin,
who gave his family home for
our D. R. B a r k e r Library.
H e z e k i t h Barker had served
in the Revolutionary War. For
ten months he was in Capt.
Wood's Co of Col. Richardson's
Reg. of R.I. troops. He h a d t he
honor of following the a r m y of
Washington a-; t h e d i s p a t c h carrier,
passing through the enemy
lines when necessary and doing
great service. In March 1834' he
was granted a pension, but
lived to receive it but a few
months since his death occurred
J u l y fi, 1834. His widow was
honored with a pension in 1839.
Hezekiah Barker and Zattu
Cushing arrived here about the
same time and they bought the
land which McClintock, Eason
and Meiniger had first purchased
before they moved on to
t h e Cross Roads (Westfield).
Mr. Barker paid $768.13 for his
land which included most o?
that in t h e c e n t e r of our present
village.
He set about with a definite
plan for a future village and a
d e t e r m i n a t i o n to make life as
comfortable as possible for all
of these persons who had left
t h e i r homes and conveniences
HI the East to b r a v e t h e e x p e r i ences
in' t h e wilderness. Following
the picn of most New England
villages he first laid out
the village "green" about which
c h u r c h e s schools and town
buildings were usually grouped.
In the Fall of 1806 Mr. Barker
with the help of Mr. Richard
Williams who had r e c e n t ly
a r r i v e d here, commenced building
a grist mill. A trip to
P e n n s y l v a n i a was made, 80
miles with an ox team, for I lie
mill stones and to Batavia for
the mill irons. The t r ip which
we to-day would make in a few
hours required then 21 days.
The s e ' t i e r s had been obliged
to take their grain either to
Erie, Pa., or to Black Rock to
have it ground. The only alternative
was to pound the g r a in
(in a stump mortar at home, a
very slov; and tedious process.
The thoughts of a grist mill here
in C a n a d a w a y ^ mu brought great joy to many
h e a r t s . But, just as t h e mill was
nearly completed a freshet
swept a\\v,.y the mill dam. The
men, however, with their usual
courageous spirit and with the
help of volunteers rebuilt the
dam.
Hezekiah Barker, also built
the first saw mill, above the
bridge on Main Street. He built
a log t a v e r n where the Russo
building now stands. This he
sold in 1315 to M. W. and
Thomas Abel. He gave the land
for the Academy and that for
our Pioneer cemetery where
many ybars later he was laid
to rest. {The first school house
was erected by him. After selling
his t a v e r n he built for himself
a home where our Post
Office is now located.
During the three years following
Hezekiah Barker's arrival
many families moved into
this area, and on the 4th of
J u l y , 1809 t h e first celebration
was held in Canadaway. Mr.
B a r k e r and Oliver Woodcock
provided for the ' d i n n e r in a
long bower, so that all who
could attend might be s e a t e d at
t h e table.
Upon .i stage which was
erected for the occasion, sat 13
ladies dressed in white with
blue sashes, the . clergy, the
speaker of t h e day, and t h e Revo
l u t i o n a r y veterans. The music
was provided with fife and.
drum. The bill of fare was beef,
baked in stone ovens, light
bread, pumpkin pies, loaf cake
sweetened with maple sugar,
peas, potatoes and s t e w e d gooseberries.
The family pewter
p l a t e s were scoured as bright
as possible and with these
t a b l e Was s^t. .
