Surname Saturday - DEWEY (England to colonial Massachusetts)

It's Surname Saturday, and I'm "counting down" my Ancestral Name List each week.

I am working in the 9th great-grandmothers by Ahnentafel number, and I am up to Ancestor #2287 who is Margaret DEWEY (1580-1630). [Note: the more recent ancestral families have been covered in earlier posts.]

My ancestral line back through one generation in this DEWEY family line is:

1. Randall J. Seaver

2. Frederick Walton Seaver (1911-1983)
3. Betty Virginia Carringer (1919-2002)

4. Frederick Walton Seaver (1876-1942)
5. Alma Bessie Richmond (1882-1962)

8. Frank Walton Seaver (1852-1922)
9. Hattie Louise Hildreth (1857-1920)

16. Isaac Seaver (1823-1901)
17. Lucretia Townsend Smith (1827-1884)

34.  Alpheus B. Smith (1802-1840)
35.  Elizabeth Horton Dill (1791-1869)

70.  Thomas Dill (1755-1839)
71.  Hannah Horton (1761-1797)

142.  Nathaniel Horton (1720-1771)
143.  Eunice Snow (1722-1816)

284.  Samuel Horton (1686-1778)
285.  Hannah Atwood (1686-1771)

570.  Stephen Atwood (1653-1722)
571.  Apphia Bangs (1651-1722)

1142.  Edward Bangs (1591-1677)

1143.  Rebecca Hobart (1611-1655)


2286.  Edmund Hobart, born before 01 January 1574 in Great Snoring, Norfolk, England; died 08 March 1646 in Hingham, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States.  He was the son of 4572. Thomas Hobart and 4573. Hellena Winsofer.  He married 07 September 1600 in Hingham, Norfolk, England.
2287.  Margaret Dewey, born about 1580 in Norfolk, England; died before 1634 in probably Hingham, Norfolk, England.

Children of Edmund Hobart and Margaret Dewey are:
*  Nazareth Hobart (1601-1658), married 1630 John Beal (1593-1688).
*  Edmund Hobart (1603-1685), married 1632 Elizabeth Elmer (1608-1675).
*  Peter Hobart (1604-1679), married (1) 1628 Elizabeth Ibrook (1608-1645); (2) 1646 Rebecca Peck (1620-1693).
*  Alice Hobart (1605-1674), married 1631 Thomas Chubbuck (1607-1676).
*  Thomas Hobart (1606-1689), married 1629 Ann Plomer (1610-????).
Rebecca Hobart (1611-1677), married 1635 Edward Bangs (1591-1677).
*  Elizabeth Hobart (1612-1660), married 1640 Ralph Smith (1612-1685).
*  Joshua Hobart (1614-1682), married 1638 Ellen Brook (1622-1700).

I have found no information about the parents of Margaret Dewey other than the FamilySearch Family Tree which says they are Constable Robert Dewey (1540-1602) and Margaret Stasye (1549-1608) of Hingham, Norfolk, England. 
Information about the Hobart family was obtained from:

*  Robert Charles Anderson (editor), The Great Migration Begins, Volume II (Boston : NEHGS, 1995) pages 958-960, Edmund Hobart sketch.

I have done no original research for this Hobart or Dewey family.
