• Notes

  John Moses born 1616 in Scotland> York Deeds, Folio I, records a grant which places John Moses arrival and setlement in the colony at least as early as 1639. After serving seven years as an apprentice to George Cleeves and Richard Tucker of Casco Bay, New England, John Moses was granted 100 acres of land on Casco Bay. The document is dated April 16, 1646. The homestead on Sagamore Creek remained int the Moses name for more than two hundred years. In Jan, 1679 an agreement was draw up between John Moses and his son Aaron. Aaron was to receive one-half of the plantation for himself and his heirs in return for which John and his wife Ann were to receive one-half of all proceeds of the land. Prior to this transaction John Moses on July 3, 1669 had deeded the other half to two sons-in-law, Joseph Walker and Thomas Creber. John Moses of Portsmouth, New Hampshire was among the first "planters" that came to Portsmouth, Piscataqua, as it was then called. He settled on the south side of Sagamore Creek. He died at the age of 70 years old. ********************************************************************** **** *************************************** All of the Moses family information I have reported was extracted from a book by Dr. Howard Moses from the Salina Kansas State Library. copied and given to me by Gail Scott.
