She married James Maynard (1694-????) on 6 January 1718/9 in Marlborough[1-2,4].  He was the son of John and Lydia (Ward) Maynard of Marlborough.  They had 11 children, and all but the first two were born in Westborough, Massachusetts Bay.

Mary's father, Joseph Morse (1667-1733) of Marlborough, wrote a will on 9 April 1733 that was proved on 3 September 1733; it is in Estate File 15528 in the Middlesex County Probate Court records[5]. In his will Joseph Morse bequeathed to his daughter Mary:

"4'ly I Will and Bequeath unto my Daughters Mary Elisabeth and Patience Three Hundred Pounds to be Paid unto them fifty Pounds Each at y'e end of one year and an half Next after my Decease and the other Part which is fifty pounds each to be paid unto them att three years End next after y'e Decease of my Wife Grace, to be Paid unto them Respectively in Good and Lawfull Bills of Creditt on the Province afores'd or in other species current with y'e Merchant at Money price at y'e Respective Days and times of Payment."

There are no death records, burial records, or probate records for James and Mary (Morse) Maynard.  Their last known child was born in 1743, and James and Mary probably died after 1743.

Treasure Chest Thursday - 1719 Marriage of James Mainard and Mary Morse in Marlborough, Massachusetts

 It's Treasure Chest Thursday - a chance to look in my digital image files to see what treasures I can find for my family history and genealogy musings.

The treasure today is the 1719 marriage entry for Joseph Mainard and Mary Morse  in the Marlborough, Massachusetts vital records book:

The birth entry is the 5th entry from the Mainard listings:

The transcription of this record is:

"[MAINARD] James and Mary Morse, Jan. 6, 1718-19. [Dec 15, 1718, C.R.]"

The source citation for this record is:

Franklin P. Rice (editor), Vital Records of Marlborough, Massachusetts, to the End of the Year 1849 (Boston, Mass. : Franklin P. Rice, 1908), Marriages, page 282, James Mainard and Mary Morse marriage entry, 6 January 1718/9.

This is an entry in a published Marlborough, Massachusetts vital record book.  It is a Derivative Source with Primary Information and Direct Evidence of the marriage of James Mainard and Mary Morse on 6 January 1718/9 in Marlborough.  The date in brackets is probably the date of filing intentions in the Marlborough church record book.

   

James Mainard (1694-????) was the son of John and Lydia (Ward) Mainard of Marlborough.  Mary Morse (1697-????) was the daughter of Joseph and Grace (Warren) Morse of Marlborough. James Mainard married 6 January 1718/9 to Mary Morse (1697-????) in Marlborough.  They are  my 6th great-grandparents, through their daughter Lydia Maynard (1722-1802).

4)  NOTES (with source citations as indicated in brackets):  

Several generations of the Maynard family were included in the Marlborough, Massachusetts town history book, but with only vital dates and without life details. James's birth and spouse's name are provided in the sketch[1].

The last name Maynard, Mainard and Mainord were interchangeable in the time period that James Maynard lived in Massachusetts Bay Colony.

James Maynard was born 31 March 1694 in Marlborough, Massachusetts Bay, the third child and third son of John and Lydia (Ward) Maynard[1,3].

He married Mary Morse (1697-????) on 6 January 1718/9 in Marlborough[4] at the age of 23.  She was the daughter of Joseph and Grace (Warren) Morse of Marlborough.  They had 11 children, and all but the first two were born in Westborough, Massachusetts Bay.

*  Beatee Maynard (1721-????).

*  Lydia Maynard (1722-1802), married 12 May 1742 in Westborough to David Bathrick (1722-1794).

*  James Maynard (1723-1773), married 6 November 1755 in Shrewsbury to Zeruah Johnson (1737-????).

*  Mary Maynard (1725-1801), married 5 October 1744 in Westborough to Ephraim Bruce (1724-1759).

*  Mariam Maynard (1726-1793), married 12 March 1752 in Westborough to Abraham Howe Beaman (1729-1815).

*  Phineas Maynard (1729-1772), married 8 January 1754 in Westborough to Dorothy Rice (1731-1793).

*  John Maynard (1731-????).

*  Abigail Maynard (1733-????), married 1 March 1754 in Southborough to Joshua Locke (1732-????).

*  Olif Maynard (1734-1744).

*  Amasa Maynard (1737-1822), married 20 September 1761 in Westborough to Jane Stone (1739-????).

*  Betty Maynard (1743-1756).

John Maynard, father of James, wrote his will on 15 April 1731 and it was proved in Middlesex County Probate Court on 14 June 1731[2].  In his will, John bequeathed to his son James:

"Item I give unto my beloved son James Maynard all the land and meadow Ground I have where he my said son James now Dwells be the same more or less, with a certain Lot of meadow scituate in a meadow called Great middle meadow being part of William Kerleys afore said his second devision of meadow in Marlborough be it more or less, also all the Right I have in the last Devision of meadow commonly called the common meadow, that belongs to me on my said Honoured father John Maynard Right, also ten acre town Right without said cow common belonging to John Ruttes his Grant in said marlborough."

The land bequeathed by his father to James Maynard was probably located in what is now Westborough in Worcester County, Massachusetts.

There are no death records, burial records, or probate records for James and Mary (Morse) Maynard.  Their last known child was born in 1743, and James and Mary probably died after 1743.

4)  NOTES (with source citations as indicated in brackets):  

There are no birth records for Lydia Maynard, but there are birth records for all of her siblings in Westborough, Massachusetts Bay.  James and Mary (Morse) Maynard were the only Maynard family in Westborough in the 1720s.  Lydia Maynard was born about 1722 in Westborough, Massachusetts Bay, the second child and second daughter of James and Mary (Morse) Maynard of Westborough.

Lydia married at age 20 to David Bathrick (1722-1794) on 12 May 1742 in Westborough, Worcester County, Massachusetts Bay[1-2].  David was the son of John and Mary (--?--) Bathrick of Cambridge.  They had seven children, all born and recorded in Westborough town records:

*  Solomon Bathrick (1746-1824), married 1778 Thankful Howe (1750-1825).

*  Anna Batherick (1748-????), married 1772 Richard Barnes (1747-1815).

*  Jonathan Batherick (1749-1825), married 1769 Abigail Battle (1750-1786).

*  Mindwell Bathrick (1751-1789)

*  Lydia Bathrick (1752-1795), married 1779 Phinehas Brigham (1755-1802).

*  David Bathrick (1754-1794).

*  Stephen Bathrick (1757-1846), married 1788 Patty Bond (1769-1859).

David Bathrick died intestate on 4 August 1794 and his estate papers are in Worcester County Probate Records, in estate file 4414 (12 images)[3].  On 8 September 1794, Solomon Bathrick, Jonathan Bathrick and David Batherick posted £500 bond, and Solomon Bathrick was appointed administrator of the estate by the probate court judge.  An inventory of the estate was taken by Nathan Fisher, Thomas Andrews and Samuel Forbush on 24 September 1794.  There was no real estate (apparently, it had been sold or given to his children over time).  The personal inventory totaled £8-9-7.  On 7 October, Solomon Bathrick charged himself with the inventory and paid debts, costs and charges, and £5-5-7 was left.  The probate court awarded the balance  to the widow, Lydia Bathrick.

Lydia, "widow of David," died at age 79 in Westborough, Massachusetts[4-5].  There is no burial record for her.

and:

"... But if ???? ????? should so order That I should Leave my now wife a widow, and she should not chuse to be provided for by him my said son  Hezekiah,  then my will is that my wife that now is shal have the privilege of her conveniancy  she stand in need of in this my house and have one cow which she shall chuse out of my stock of cretures, and be keept summer and winter at the ???? of my said son Hezekiah and one third part of the income of my pleace yearly for her Livlyhood during the time She Remains my widow."

NOTE: In 2014, Amy Johnson Crow suggested a weekly blog theme of "52 Ancestors" in her blog post 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks on the No Story Too Small blog. I have extended this theme in 2021 for an eighth year to 416 Ancestors in 416 Weeks. The list of 52 Ancestors biographies from my great-grandparents to the 7th great-grandparents (in work) is in https://www.geneamusings.com/p/ancestor-biographies.html.
