BIRTH, DEATH & BURIAL Thomas, Jr. was born on 23 August 1658 in Ipswich, Essex co., MA[2,3,25,26,27] and died in what was then North Chelsea and is now Revere, Suffolk co., MA on 27d:11m:1749; he was 91[3,26,28]. He was buried in Old Graveyard in Revere, Suffolk co., MA. OCCUPATION Thomas was a Clergyman. He graduated from Harvard College in 1677 and lived to be the oldest surviving graduate of Harvard College[27,29]. He began preaching at Malden on 14 February 1679/80 and was ordained there on 27 July 1681 as a colleague of Michael Wigglesworth (brother of Abigail Wigglesworth, the wife of Benjamin Sweetser). He was dismissed in 1686 from this church when he moved to Rumney Marsh. From 1686 until 1715, he was in comparative retirement there. In 1715, he was chosen as pastor of the newly gathered church at Rumney Marsh. Thomas also taught school in Rumney Marsh as early at 1709, "teaching reading, writing and cyphering at his home to an average of twenty pupils."[30]

"His early ministerial life was clouded by grave charges" but in 1722 and 1735 he was invited back to his old church in Malden to preach there. These sermons were published in 1726[31]. On 24 September 1747, due to his advanced age of 89, he was relieved at his own request and Nathaniel Oliver, Jr. was appointed scribe to keep the records and proceedings of the church. On 13 April 1748, The Reverend William McClenachan was appointed associate pastor to Rev. Cheever and he was formerly installed on 21 December 1748 as Cheever¹s colleague[31].

RESIDENCES Thomas moved from Ipswich, Essex co., MA to either Malden, Middlesex co., MA or Rumney Marsh, Suffolk co., MA after his ordination date in 1681[2].

On 22 October 1689, Reverend Cheever bought the Parker-Cheever farm from the three Bill brothers (James, Jr., Jonathan and Joseph of Pullen Point), brothers-in-law of Cheever for £357. It was a farm of 120 acres and Reverend Thomas deeded it to his son Nathan on 29 December 1738. Reverend Cheever was the first owner of the farm who actually lived upon it[33]. The location of this farm is west of what is now Broadway and north of Fenno Street in Revere, Suffolk co., MA[34].

On 27 April 1685, their three sons James, Jr. Jonathan & Joseph together bought the Parker-Cheever Farm in Rumney Marsh for £300. The Cheevers became tenants on the farm the next year and bought the farm from the three brothers on 22 October 1689 for £357. It had 120 acres[33].

NEIGHBORLY SERVICE The will of John Tuttle of Rumney Marsh was in the handwriting of Rev. Thomas Cheever[32].

MARRIAGE #1 Circa 1681 when Thomas was 22, he first married Sarah BILL, daughter of James BILL Sr. & Mary [surname not known], in Boston, Suffolk co. or Lexington, Middlesex co., MA[3,35,36,1,37,38,19,7,39,8,15,40].

-----
BIRTH Ezekiel was born on 25 January 1614/15 in London, Hampstead, Middlesex, England[1]. DEATH & BURIAL He died in Boston, Suffolk co., MA on 21 August 1708; he was 94[2] and is buried in the Granary Burying Ground, Boston, Suffolk co., MA. His death record in the Boston vital records is most detailed: "Cheever, Ezekiel, schoolmaster, b. Jan. 25, 1614, in London, d. Aug. 21, 1708. M.C.". OCCUPATION & FAMILY Ezekiel is an example of how one could emigrate from England to America in the 17th century and rise far beyond what his station in life would have been had he remained in England. His grandfather was a Yeoman and father was a Skinner. But Ezekiel was most noted as Headmaster of the Boston Latin School. Boston Latin is the oldest public school in the country and still remains as a public school today. His sons graduated from Harvard College in Cambridge, Middlesex co., MA and became noted ministers in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Quite a rise in a single lifetime. EMIGRATION & RESIDENCES He emigrated from London to Boston, Suffolk co., MA before 1637. The exact date and name of the ship is lost. In 1638, they moved to New Haven, New Haven co., CT, where his first wife died in 1649. In 1650, he moved the family back to Massachusetts, removing to Ipswich, Essex co., MA. Then, in November 1661, he was back in Charlestown, Suffolk co., MA. Finally, he removed to Boston, Suffolk co., MA by 6 January 1670, where he apparently remained until his death in 1708[2,3]. LEGAL WRANGLINGS AND HIS SECOND WIFE Much is known of Ezekiel's second wife Ellen Lathrop's brother Thomas, but little of her. He was a hero of the King Philip's War and was killed at the Battle of Bloody Brook. Having died intestate, the wrangling over his estate provides much of the information on Ellen. Most of this information is from her husband's depositions, and can be considered quite biased since the Cheevers were trying to get the courts to give Thomas' estate to them instead of giving it to Thomas' wife, Bethiah. After nearly a decade of legal wrangling over the estate, the estate was left to his wife Bethiah, going to his sister Ellen and her heirs after Bethiah's death.

According to her husband's testimony, she was brought over from England with her brother Thomas, arriving in Salem in 1633[20]. Ezekiel's testimony is as follows: "My brother, when he brought his sister from England with him from all her friends and relations very loathe to part with her, used this as a great argument with her mother to persuade her. Viz: That he had no children of his own, nor was likely to have any: and otherwise he must give what he had to strangers..."

Wikipedia
Ezekiel Cheever (1614?1708) was a schoolmaster, and the author of "probably the earliest American school book", Accidence, A Short Introduction to the Latin Tongue.[1] Upon his death, it was said that "New England [had] never known a better teacher."[2] He has been called "the chief representative of the colonial schoolmaster".[1]

Cheever came to Boston, Massachusetts in June 1637. Not much later, he went to New Haven, Connecticut and taught school.[3] In 1650, Cheever moved the family back to Massachusetts. On December 29, 1670, he was invited to become Head Master of the Boston Latin School.[2] He taught for seventy years, the last thirty-eight as master of the Boston Latin School.[1] Cotton Mather gave the sermon at his funeral.[3]

Ezekiel Cheever School named in his honor
Ezekiel Cheever School was a school located on Lombard St. in the Fair Haven neighborhood of New Haven, Connecticut, USA. The school opened in 1896[1] and remained as late as 1967.[2] It was named for schoolteacher Ezekiel Cheever.

Ezekiel* married Ellen* Lathrop (or Lothrop), (immigrant) on 18 Nov 1652. Ellen* (daughter of Lathrop (or Lothrop)) was born in 1625 in England; died on 10 Sep 1706 in Boston, Suffolk Co, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

• Immigration: Bef 1637, Essex Co, Massachusetts
• Property: 1657, Ipswich, Essex Co, Massachusetts

Notes:

his (Capt Thomas) sister Ellen, who came with him from England, and became the second wife of Ezekiel Cheever, with her children, inherited his estate.

Immigration:
She came with her brother Thomas and Thomas was shown in a petiton that he was in the expedition against Pequods in 1636/37.

Notes:

On November 18, 1652, Ezekiel married Ellen Lathrop who was the sister of Capt Thomas Lathrop, a casualty during King Philip's War.[3][5] Ezekiel and Ellen had five children. Their son, Rev Thomas, graduated from Harvard in 1677. Their son, Ezekiel Cheever, was a resident at Salem Village during the time of the Witch Trials.
Wikipedia

James* married Mrs. Mary* (..) Bill, (immigrant) about 1645 in Boston, Suffolk Co, Massachusetts. Mary* was born in 1613 in England; died on 9 Aug 1688 in Boston, Suffolk Co, Massachusetts; was buried in Copps Hill Burying Ground, Boston, Suffolk Co, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

some records think he was son of John Lathrop and Hannah Howse, however, per a post-in note in rootsweb tree:

There is at least some evidence to the contrary that the famous Thomas Lathrop is a son of Rev. John Lathrop: Captain Thomas Lothrop is listed in Rev E. B Huntington's "Genealogical Memoir of the Lo-Lathrop family..." in the appendix on Unconnected Immigrants, Page 401-408. Huntington says "Of the parentage of this famous pioneer in early Massachusetts history, we have not been able to learn. He was a near kinsman of Rev John of Barnstable, and had preceded him, by some months certainly, to his American home. ..." Huntington gives a lengthy report of his exploits and reports he left no children. His sister Ellen Lothrop married Ezekiel Cheever of Salem.

Whether EB Huntington is correct, I do not know.

Other Events and Attributes:

• Immigration: Between 1634 and 1635, Boston, Suffolk Co, Massachusetts

Notes:

BIRTH Based on the date of the birth of his oldest son, John was probably born circa 1590-1595.
DEATH John died in 10m(December):1638 in Boston, Suffolk co., MA. Some sources claim that this death record is a misspelled entry for "James Bill". See the discussion under John Bill, Jr.'s [#5] entry below. However, Richard Tuttle became responsible for Dorothy Tuttle Bill's affairs after her husband John's death -- via a writ of 21 January 1638/9, 1 month after his death. This writ proves to me that the death record is not only correctly spelled, but indicates the death of this John Bill.
ORIGINAL RESIDENCE John is possibly of Ringstead, Northamptonshire, England. The Mary Bill who traveled with Dorothy Tuttle's brother William aboard the Planter is believed to be John Sr.'s daughter and surmised to be from this area[2,3].
MIGRATION While a John Bill is listed as emigrating aboard the Hopewell, Mr. William Bundocke, master, in 1635, he is on the manifest as 13 years of age and so is not this John Bill. Instead, it is believed to be his son John, Jr[1]. The Hopewell voyage mentioned here also carried the Farrington family and embarked from London to New England at the same time as the Planter, which carried the Tuttle clan to America.
MARRIAGE Circa 1615 John married Dorothy TUTTLE, daughter of [not known] TUTTLE & Isabel [surname not known], in England[4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12].

Immigration:
While a John Bill is listed as emigrating aboard the Hopewell, Mr. William Bundocke, master, in 1635, he is on the manifest as 13 years of age and so is not this John Bill. Instead, it is believed to be his son John, Jr[1]. The Hopewell voyage mentioned here also carried the Farrington family and embarked from London to New England at the same time as the Planter, which carried the Tuttle clan to America.
