Daniel Hovey, the ancestor of the American Hoveys(1) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/, was born at Waltham Abbey http://www.walthamabbey.co.uk/, in Essex county, England, Aug. 9, 1618, being the son of Richard Hovey, a glover (one who makes gloves), of that place. He was apparently a man of education, and the fact that the curate of his parish church was friendly to and interested in him while he was in his teens and far away in a strange land, indicates that there were elements in his character which drew and held attention to him. He was one of the early settlers of Ipswich http://www.ipswichma.com, Massachusetts, in 1635, at the age of seventeen. Feb. 5, 1637, the town granted to him six acres of land on Muddy creek; and also "Granted to Daniell Hovey, an house lott, 1 acre of ground on the South syde of the Town River, having a house lott, granted to William Holdred on the West, and a house lott, granted to Thomas Sherman on the East. Also six acres of planting ground, lying on Sagamore Hill, having a planting lott, formerly granted Henry Wilkinson on the West, and a planting lott granted to William Holdred on the East: to enjoy the sayde Landes, to him, his heirs, or assigns forever. Entered this 27th day of March 1639."(2) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ The freemen of the town granted to William Holdred a house lot of half-an-acre adjoining Daniel Hovey's on the southwest, being on the south side of the river, and bounded by the house lot of Roger Preston on the southwest; also six acres of planting ground on Sagamore hill adjoining Daniel Hovey's planting lot west, and the planting lot of Roger Preston on the east; the grants being entered April 9, 1639; and both of these lots were conveyed by Mr. Holdred to "Daniel Hovey of Ipswich, planter," and, also, one dwelling house built on the house lot and all the fencing belonging to both lots. Entered April 10, 1639.

Feb. 10, 1644, the town of Ipswich ordered that Mr. Hovey be paid three shillings for killing three foxes.

In 1648, he subscribed three shillings three times a year to Maj. Daniel Denison, "so long as he shall be their leader, to encourage him in his military helpfulness," the whole annual sum being twenty-four pounds and seven shillings, and the largest subscription ten shillings.

Mr. Hovey was somewhat prominent, and held several town offices in Ipswich, being chosen one of the selectmen Feb. 14, 1659; a surveyor of highways in 1648-9 and 1649-50; and a constable in 1658. In 1656, he was one of a committee to set up a saw mill on Chebacco river. The selectmen ordered, 12: 12: 1650, that Symon Tomson and Daniell Hovey shall view a certain parcel of land.(3) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ In 1649, he was a juror at Ipswich court.

In the county court which sat at Ipswich 29: 1: 1642, Mr. Hovey was plaintiff in three civil actions. One was against James Pitney and James Howe, in which he recovered judgment for nine bushels of corn; one against Jo: Lee, which was not tried; and the other was against George Varnham and Jo: North, which was continued.

Daniel Hovey was granted a highway to go to his lot in, by the town of Ipswich, March 4, 1650.3

22: 12: 1652, the town gave him liberty to set his fence down to the river at his ground which he bought of William Knowlton, making a stile at each end.3

At a town meeting held Feb. 14, 1659, Daniel Hovey was granted liberty to build a warf against his ground that he bought of William Knowlton, and , also, such building as may tend to the improvement thereof.3

Mr. Hovey was living on his farm in Topsfield in 1663 and 1664. Jan 15, 1663, he was chosen one of two persons to lay out some land.(4) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/

Mr. Hovey was complained of for speaking falsely to the prejudice of General Denison, and was fined twenty shillings in Ipswich court Sept. 24, 1667. The records show that in some case, in which evidently General Denison acted as magistrate, Mr. Hovey said that Major Denison did not write his determination nor state his sentence in public, and what was done occurred after he was gone, and that John Gould whispered in the major's ear as he was going away.(5) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ Magistrates did not allow themselves to be criticized in those days.

In May, 1660, a colony went from Ipswich to Quaboag(6) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/, a place subsequently named Brookfield; and Daniel Hovey joined it in 1668. His sons James and Thomas went with him. The lots of land laid out to the father and sons adjoined, and were situated easterly of the little brook, on the north side of the road. Daniel Hovey was living in Quaboag in May, 1672, and settled in Hadley before the massacre at Quabog in 1675.

While in Hadley, he lived on a farm of Mr. Henry Clerke; and Mr. John Russell, Jr., and Mr. Peter Tilton, Sr., executors of the will of Mr. Clerke of Hadley, deceased, brought an action against Mr. Hovey, at the court in Springfield Sept. 26, 1676, for withholding rent due to said plaintiffs "for a ffarm or Land of ye sayd Mr. Henry Clerkes which ye sayd Hovey hath Occupyed as a tenement."(7) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ The jury found a verdict for the plaintiffs, and awarded them fourteen pounds damages, due in 1767.(8) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ At the succeeding term of court held at Springfield the same year, Mr. Hovey brought suit against Mr. John Russell, Jr., being an "Action of unjust molestation in a Suite at ye last Corte at Springfield & for uncharitable Charges to ye defamation or Slandour of the sd Dannll Hovey & his Wife & Charging ye sd Danll to be a man of a Scandolous life in an Open Afsembly & therefore was denyed Church Comunion & this threatened to be made Out to his Church and ye belonged too & all ye Churches thereaboute." The jury found a verdict for Mr. Hovey.(9) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ Whether these proceedings and the unhappy contentions that must have been engendered by them had aught to do with his departure from Hadley or not the writer does not know; but Mr. Hovey returned to Ipswich in 1678.

While living in Hadley, he suffered much at the hands of the Indians, and was also a sharer in providing defense for the town. Three years after his return to Ipswich, he sent to the colonial council a petition, an exact copy of which, copied from the original instrument on file in the Massachusetts archives, at the state house in Boston is as follows:(10) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/

"To the Honoured Council now sitting in Boston; the humble petition of Daniel Hovey of Ipswich,
"Wheras your humble petitioner was an inhabitant of Hadly in the time of the late Indian warrs, and there expended (beside my lofses) much of my Estate in the Countreys service against the common enemy; and since that time was removed thence by Providence to Ipswich, where I have remained now these three yeers last past; and by reason of the remote distance fro Hadly and want of intelligence thence I mifsed the opportunity of sending in my last accots together with my neighbours there, to the last Sefsions of the Genll Court; which caused me much labour and long travell thither from Ipswich; yet at the last I have gained a certificate of those my Expences from the Committee of Militia in Hadley, being the last of mine Expences there on the Countreys service; amounting to 11lb 13s 08d; as by the said Certificate doth fully appear; now my humble request and petition is, that yor Honors would be pleased to grant me an Order to the Constables of Ipswich that I may receive the said Sums there; where my setled residence is, and have no commerce or dealing at Hadley; that so I may discount my present Rates, and may have the residue for the relief of my family, which hath been much straitned by my lofses and expences there in time of the warrs, and by rates both then and since. The Lord direct your counfells and afsist yor endeavors in all weighty transactions now in hand, that we may rejoice and blefs God under yor good dovernmt continued over us. so prayeth
Yor humble petitioner,
DANIEL HOVEY."

The order thereon was as follows: --

P councill EDW RAWSON Secrery

The selectmen of Ipswich granted to him six pine trees, presumably for timber, at two times, three on Jan. 2, 1678, and three Dec. 15, 1679.(12) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/

Daniel Hovey married Abigail, daughter of Robert and Elizabeth (Franklin?) Andrews of Ipswich, about 1641(13) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/. Mr. Andrews died in 1643, having given to Mr. Hovey a legacy of ten pounds. In the settlement of the estate of Mrs. Hovey's brother Thomas Andrews, a prominent schoolmaster, Mr. Hovey certified to the county court as follows: --(14) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/
"September 27, '83'

The real estate transactions to which Mr. Hovey was a party besides those that were grants from the town in the earlier days are as follows: He owned, with others, twenty-five acres of marsh, which was divided Jan. 30, 1658.(16) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ He bought seventy acres of upland and meadow in Topsfield, bounded north and northeast by the pond, east by a part of the Ipswich commons, south by upland and meadow of Robert Andrews and west by common land and meadow, June 12, 1660.(17) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ When he was living at Quabog, he conveyed a piece of marsh and "my farm in Topsfield wch my son John now liveth in, to him he surrendering to me his land in Ipswich," and paying forty pounds and allowing to the grantor thirty shillings a year during the latter's life; and also "my division of land at wheall brooke," June 13, 1671.(18) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ While Mr. Hovey was still at "Quabaugh," he conveyed one-half of an acre of land in Ipswich, lying on the south side of the river, together with the frame of a house standing on the adjoining land of his son Daniel and some shingles at Topsfield, May 8, 1672.(19) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ When Mr. Hovey lived at Hadley he sold twenty-four rods of land in Ipswich, being part of that lot called Knowlton's lot, on the south side of the river, May 1, 1677.(20) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ After Mr. Hovey's return to Ipswich, he sold one and one-half acres of plowing land lying on the south side of the river in Ipswich, Feb. 11, 1688-9.(21) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ He also conveyed six acres and seventy-one square rods of pasture land in Ipswich April 23, 1689.(22) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/ He also conveyed one and one-half acres of plowing land in Ipswich, lying on the south side of the river, next to the lot last above described, Oct. 12, 1689.(23) http://members.tripod.com/~sjhovey/histories/

Mrs. Hovey died between 1676 and 1683. He died in Ipswich April 24, 1692. His will was proved Oct. 31, 1692.

The following is a copy of the original document on file in the probate office at Salem: --

1. (Although this is the claim made in The Hovey Book of 1914, this is not quite true. In an electronic mail from a Lonnie James Hovey, received by the compiler on Mar. 27, 1998, he relates that he is the first progeny of the sixth generation of the Hoveys in a family line that originated from one Frederick William Hovey who was born in Sept. 1821 in Prussia and emigrated to the U.S. to Northwestern Ohio by the 1860's. No one has been successful in finding where in Prussia Frederick originated but the spelling was firm. They, however, pronounce the name "Ho-vee" instead of "Hu-vee.")

BIRTH:  By about 1608 based on estimated date of marriage.
DEATH:  Malden 5 February 1661/2.
MARRIAGE:  (1) By 1633 Alice _____; "Alice Pemberton" was admitted to Charlestown church 31 August 1633 [ChChR 8]; she died after 1642 and before 1653.
(2) By 1653 Margaret _____, named in his will.  She deposed on 15 December 1662 aged about fifty years [Pope, citing Middlesex Files].

COMMENTS:  James Pemberton was admitted as an inhabitant of Charlestown in December 1633, and was in the lists of inhabitants of 9 January 1633/4 and January 1635/6 [ChTR 9, 10, 15].  He signed the town agreement establishing the office of selectman, 10 February 1634/5 [ChTR 12].

There is no record of this James Pemberton in New England between his request for freemanship in September 1630 and his reappearance in Charlestown in 1633.  This gap, and especially the fact that he was not made a freeman in May of 1631, suggests that he returned to England for some portion of these years.  There is even the possibility that the 1630 man is not the same as the one who appeared in 1633 in Charlestown.

About 1640, James Pemberton, Prudence Wilkinson, and others petitioned that having been inhabitants of Charlestown and now planters on Mystick side, found that the town meeting had passed very prejudicial and unreasonable rules to the detriment of the planters and they sought redress from the court [Lechford 365].

Savage notes that this James Pemberton "perhaps removed to Hull for a short time, about 1647" [Savage 3:387].  Savage is off by a decade, and it is not certain that these records apply to James Pemberton of Charlestown.  12 March 1637/8: "James Pemberton is referred to the committee of the next Court about the ground which he had at Nantascot" [MBCR 1:226].  2 May 1638: "There is ten acres of land granted to James Pemberton, part of it the land formerly planted by him, & the rest joining to it at Nantascot" [MBCR 1:229].

On 19 October 1652 the court judged that the island claimed by James Pemberton, and called by his name, did belong to him [MBCR 3:291].
