Notater:

There is controversy about who his parents are. The parents most often attributed to him lead back to Rowland Clark and Mary Hobart. Because Mary Hobart is said to be also from Barnham, and because the Joseph Clark who married Alice Fenn is also from Barnham and has ancestors named Rowland, could it be that Rowland Clark who m. Mary Hobart and Rowland Clark who m. Alice Fenn share ancestors?

Joseph blev gift med Martha Allen den 25 jun. 1663 i Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA.

Thomas Wight (1629-1690) & Mehitable Cheney (1643-1693)
Immigrant

Thomas was born 1629 in Dedham, Sussex, England and died 1690 in Medford, Massachusetts. He Married 1660 Mehitable Cheney and to this union was born six children. she was the daughter of William Cheney and Margaret 'Cule' Masson.

Thomas WIGHT Birth: 1629 in Dedham, Massachusetts Death: 25 Sep 1690 in Medfield, Massachusetts
The Indians attacked Medfield on February 21, 1676 and his residence was destroyed.

Thomas is not mentioned in Dedham records, having moved to Medfield doubtless before he was of age. Thomas was accepted a citizen of Medfield in 1658. His home lot there was on Green Street, east of his father's home. Thomas and his brother, Ephraim (having inherited his father's place), were permitted to fence across the roads leading through their home lots, on condition that they make "handy bars." Thomas' name occurs among the Medfield proprietors in 1675. He had also lands in Medway. In 1659 he received six acres in the Old Grant, and later 56 acres in the New Grant lying immediately west. In 1702 when the Black Swamp was laid out in Medway, Thomas' two sons, Joshua & Eleazar, received portions--Joshua 3 rods 6 feet. and Eleazar 4 rods and 2 feet--thereof, doubtless by right of inheriting their father's realty in Medway (Jamesons "Medway," p. 19, 23, 40). None of these persons resided in Medway. In 1675, Thomas Wight subscribed one bushel of "Endian Corne" to the fund for the "new Briek College" at Cambridge, but on account of deprivations suffered during the Indian war the next year, his subscription seems to have been remitted. In the attack upon Medfield by the Indians, 21 Feb 1676, his residence was destroyed and he was reduced to apply with others for a rebate of his "reats." His personal petition for relief is as follows: Thomas Wight's Petition: To the Honorable Governor, Deputy Governor & Magistrates, with the deputies sitting in general Court at Boston May 8, 1678, the petition of Thomas Wight humbly sheweth: That whereas it pleased God to visit us in our towne of Medfield with the awful and solemn stook by the Indians and bereaving me of my habitation and six cattell being burnt in my barn, my horse taken away and even bereaved of most of the means for my sustenance, so that I have been exposed to greate sufferings thereby, not having wharwith to get corn for my family but as I went to my dayly labour for it: that had to help others in their want.

EOL! His parents are not proven from any record yet to this day. His Wife's surname is Fenne or Ferne. Please READ ALL of the discussions under his wife Alice LK5C-WMX, this will give great insight to all future connections to anyone looking. This is NOT the family out of Windsor, Conn. They are a separate family from this one that everyone gets confused with!

Gravemarker: "JAMES ALLEN emigrant from Scotland died 27 Sep 1676."
"James Allen came to Dedham 1639; a first settler in Medfield 1649; he was cousin of Rev. John Allen of Dedham, one of the original owners of the 8000-acre grant. He m. Ann, who came from England with him; she died Sept 27, 1673."

Additional information from Find A Grave:

James came to Dedham, MA about 1637. He was a proprieter there in 1642 and took the freeman's oath in 1647. He married Anna (Ann) Guild on Mar. 16, 1638 in Dedham, MA. They had at least 7 children: John, Martha & Mary (twins, Martha is our ancestor), Sarah, James, Nathaniel and Joseph. He came to Medfield with the first 13 proprieters and the fifth to be granted land. He drew his house lot of 7 acres on South Street. About 1653 he was granted another 6 acres. It is certain that he was living there in 1660. (From "The History of Medfield, MA") A copy of his will is printed in the Allen Family book by Frank Hutchinson, dated 23 Sep 1676. He gave his house, barn, etc., to his son-in-law Joseph Clark and his homestead (South Street, he owned 2 places) to his son Nathaniel.
James was reportedly the grand son of Reginald Allin of Colby, Norfolk, England.

Relationship to Rev. John Allen
Although referred to as a "cousin," the published Allen history suggest that he was a nephew rather than a cousin. The published Allen history gives several examples of interchangeability of those relationships in that time period.

James blev gift med Anna Guild den 16 feb. 1638 i Dedham, Suffolk, Massachusetts Bay, British Colonial America. Anna blev født den 16 mar. 1614 i Suffolk, England; døde den 29 mar. 1673 i Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA; blev begravet den 31 mar. 1673 i Medford, Middlesex, Massachusetts, USA.
