  Robert Murdock (1663-1754) & Hannah Stedman (1665-1727) Birth :Sep. 6, 1663 Stirling, Scotland Death: Apr. 28, 1754 Roxbury Suffolk County Massachusetts, Only the records by which his name appears, there being practically no family tradition except that he was born in Scotland know Robert. This is sometimes coupled with the statement that he came from Scotland to Plymouth in 1688 in company with his brother John. For a few years preceding the English revolution of that year, there was considerable emigration from the southwestern part of Scotland to Northern Ireland, and a few families came directly to New England to escape the religious persecutions against the Covenanters, who were numerous in that part of Scotland. John Murdock, or Mordo, as his name was written in the early New England records, was married to Abigail Young, probably a native of Plymouth Colony, December 10, 1686. His advent may therefore be placed with considerable probability in 1685 or 1686. There is no record of the arrival of either Robert or John, and nothing to show whether they came together or at different times. The records of Newton, Massachusetts, mention the death of Robert on April 28, 1754, his age being given as 89. This gives the only existing evidence of the date of his birth as 1665. The first contemporaneous record is that of his marriage in Roxbury in 1692. He was then twenty-seven years old, and having no family, probably never purchased any property before his marriage, and was sufficiently well behaved to keep off the court records. On April 28, 1692, he was married in Roxbury, Massachusetts, to Hannah Stedman, the daughter of Nathaniel and granddaughter of Isaac Stedman. The latter was born in Biddenden, County Kent, England, being baptized April 21, 1605, and came to New England in 1636 with his wife Elizabeth and two sons, Nathaniel and Thomas. He first settled in Scituate, but later removed to Boston, dying at Muddy River, now Brookline, in 1678, his son Nathaniel dying intestate in November of the same year before his father's will was settled. No record of the marriage of Nathaniel has been found, but his widow Temperance was made administratrix of his estate "in right of herself and children." There is a possibility that she was the daughter of Michael Wills of Dorchester, or she may have been born in England. Robert Murdock lived in Roxbury for several years after his marriage, but apparently bought no land there. In later years he was a house wright, and this may explain his not investing in real estate. He advanced money on two mortgages, and in company with Temperance and his brother-in-law Nathaniel Stedman sold land in Cambridge in 1693, which was part of the estate of his wife's father. In 1698 Robert and Hannah Murdock and David and Mary Stowell (the sister of Hannah) sold land in Woburn, which was also part of the Stedman estate. On June 1, 1703, Robert bought a house and one hundred and twenty acres of land in Newton, from Jonathan Hyde and John Woodward, and made this his permanent residence, although the exact date of his removal from Roxbury is not known. This land was situated on the Dedham road between Newton Upper Falls and West Roxbury. Deeds of 1726 and 1732 refer to him as a house wright and he built a shop near his house. On April 28, 1747, he sold this property for ₤1,500 to his son Robert, who probably cared for him during the remainder of his life. His wife Hannah died August 17, 1727, at the age of sixty, and afterwards married Mrs. Abigail (White) Read, the widow of Samuel Read of Mendon, Massachusetts. He died April 28, 1754, his will, signed June 18, 1747, bequeathing personal property only, to the amount of ₤536, his eldest son Robert receiving a double portion and being named executor. The widow Abigail moved to Uxbridge, Massachusetts, where she lived with some of her children and died October 9, 1761. Robert's name is spelled in a variety of ways in his deeds, the spelling of the day being largely phonetic. His autograph of 1700 reads "Murdock," and his sons used the same form.
