GENEALOGICAL RECORD DANIEL POND AND HIS DESCENDANTS, By EDWARD DOUBLEDAY HARRIS.
Resident Member of the Massachusetts Historical Society.
BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS :
WILLIAM PARSONS LUNT. 1873.

INTRODUCTION.

The New Englander who seeks to learn something of his ancestry
turns first to Dr. Savage's Genealogical Dictionary. From this
source we learn that while Daniel Pond, the forefather of the Norfolk
County families, was living in Dedham, one Robert was in Milton,
one William was in Dorchester, - and in Connecticut, which it must
be remembered was settled in part by removals from Massachusetts,
were living Samuel in Windsor and another Samuel in Branford.
With the Connecticut men we have but little to do. Their connec-
tion with the Norfolk County families is not made clear, and the few
pages inserted at the end of this book relating to their descendants
have been printed more for the aid of any who may in future attempt
to collect the records of those branches, than for any peculiar interest
they may have to the descendants of the Dedham settler. As it is by
no means impossible that future researches of English records may
show a relationship between the Dorchester men and Daniel, the
information concerning the former, as unfolded by Dr. Savage, is here
inserted, somewhat enlarged by scanty notes collected from different
sources by the compiler.

John Pond, and a brother whose name is not given, sons of one of
Governor Winthrop's old neighbors, came to New England in the
year 1630, with the Governor. After his arrival here, Governor
Winthrop wrote home to his eldest son in Groton, desiring him to tell
" old Pond that both his sons are well and remember their duty."
Records of Groton, examined at the instance of the writer, give no
satisfaction to the patient searcher ; the name of Pond does not occur
in them. John and his bi'other were, doubtless, men of humble birth
and small means, launched forth from the paternal roof by the old
sire, to seek their fortunes in the new world. Of the former we
hear nothing more. Pie may have returned to England, or pushed
on to a more congenial climate. But one Robert, who it is
surmised was the brother, sat down at Dorchester. He died in 1637,
his inventoi-y being dated December 27 of that year. His widow,
Mary, married Edward Shepard of Cambridge. It is known that
Robert and Mary Pond had a daughter Mary, who was eleven years
old at the time that her mother joined the church at Cambridge, and
who afterwards married John Blackman. There is evidence, too,
that the widow carried with her to Cambridge two other children,
Jonathan and Sarah, though it seems difficult to reconcile dates and
facts with this hypothesis, unless the transcript of the court paper
relating to Jonathan's estate, on page 3:38 of the N. E. Genealogical
Register for 1853, errs in the age of Sarah.

There is but little doubt that Robert Pond of Milton, was also a
son of Robert and Mary of Dorchester. He was made freeman in
1642, married Mary Ball, and died between 1660 and 1663. Their
children were Mary, Martha, and probably the Sarah who married
Desire Clap.

William Pond of Dorchester, also supposed to have been a son of
the first Robert, married Mary, daughter of George Dyer, and had
several children born in Dorchester, none of whom, except a daughter
Thankful, who married Philip Whithington, can be traced. The
name in Dorchester, and of this line, seems to have died out with
that generation.

Dr. Savage was strongly impressed with the belief that Daniel
Pond of Dedham, the subject of this sketch, was a son of the elder
Robert and brother of Robert and William. It was a custom of our
ancestors to retain and pass down from father to son the family given
names. Our Dedham man had a goodly number of children, and if
Savage's supposition is not correct, there is certainly a singular coin-
cidence in the names which he bestowed upon them, for we find a
Robert, a William, and a John. Another circumstance favoring the
idea of a connection between the Dorchester and the Dedham men is
that of Daniel's marriage. It will be remembered that Robert's wid-
ow, Mary, mai*ried Edward Shepard of Cambridge, and we shall show
that Daniel took for his wife, Abigail, the daughter of the same Ed-
ward by an earlier marriage.

Thus it will be seen that although no positive evidence in regard
to the parentage of Daniel Pond can be adduced, there is a probabil-
ity that he was the son of Robert Pond of Dorcester, and a descend-
ant of the Groton family.

It is worthy of note, that for many years the descendants of the
Dedhara settler, with scarcely an exception, lived and died in close
proximity to that ancient town. Not until the lapse of a hundred
years after his first purchase did his issue, then in the fourth genera-
tion, stray as far as to Ilubbardston, Petersham, and even to Keene,
N. H, ; while a very large number of the residents of Wrentham
and Franklin, of the present day, can trace back their descent
through paternal or maternal lines to the sturdy old husbandman. . .

. . . Daxiel Pond, husbandman, the forefather of a long line of de-
scendants, appeared in the town of Dedham, Norfolk County, Massa-
chusetts, about the year 1652. The names of his parents and that of
his birth-place, no vigilance has discovered. In the volume of tOAvn
records containing the conveyances of real estate and grants of land,
it is written that on the 30th day, 1st mo. (March 30) 1652, he pur-
chased of Nathaniel Fisher two acres of upland, described as being
bounded by " the highway " on the N., and by " the swamp " on the
S. With this were two acres of swamp land. On the 25th day, 12th
month, 1662, (Feb. 12, 1662-3) he bought of Ralph Wheelock, his
estate, on which was a dwelling-house and barns, with a piece of swamp
land "called the dead swamp amongst the rocks." His marriage to
Abigail, daughter of Edward Shepard, of Cambridge, occurred
probably about the time of his first purchase, but it is not recorded
either in Dorchester, or Cambridge where it would have taken place.
The birth of his first child, Abigail, is recorded at Dedham, but not
her baptism, although her mother was doubtless a member of the
church at Cambridge. He was himself received into full communion
in the Dedham church, 8, 11, 1653, and a son whose name is not given
was baptized there on the 22d of same month. In 1659 his "county
and town rate " or tax was 7s. 6d. His special town-rate levied in
the last month of the same year was 3s, 4d, He was one of the
Selectmen of the town in 1660, The next year his "school-rate"
was lis, 7d, In 1661 the southern portion of Dedham was set off into
a separate townshijD called Wrentham, though the act was not con-
firmed by court until 1673, Daniel Pond immediately became an
owner of real estate there, obtaining a grant of Lot No, 15, as early as
March 22d, 1662-3, In 1664 he had a further grant ot twelve acres
" on the mill-creek." At a meeting of the proprietors of the new town,
held on January 15th, 1671, he was present and took part in the pro-
ceedings. In 1676-7 he had a further grant, lot No. 25. In 1685 he
was granted meadow lot No, 37 ''in Wigwam meadow," and also lot
No. 17, containing eight acres. After his death his heirs had a grant
of seven acres at "cold hearth plain." He probably never lived at
Wrentham, but his older sons took up the land and settled there. His
wife Abigail died at Dedham, July 5th, 1661, and, if the records are
correct in the date, he waited only until Sept. 18th of the same year
to wed another, Ann Edwards, who survived him, and died June 6th,
1732, aged 92 yrs. He was a lieutenant of the militia, and took the
freeman's oath'in 1690. He died Feb. 4th, 1697-8, at Dedham. His
will was proved March 8d, 1697-8.

Biography
Robert Pond , son of William Pond and Judith Gordon, was born 1592 in Groton, Suffolk, England and died d. bef 27 December 1648 (NOT 1637; see "Death" below) in Dorchester, Boston, Massachusetts. Birth: 10 SEP 1606 Groton, Suffolk, England?[1]

He married Mary ? on November 18, 1612 in Groton, Suffolk, England,
[She was perhaps a Ball, daughter of William Ball and Alice Waltham, but his son Robert Jr also married a Mary, perhaps Ball.] [citation needed]
He did not marry her on November 18, 1642, Groton, Suffolk, England.[2]

Robert Pond[3] was born about 1590 in England. Some say 10 September 1600 in Groton, England. Others say he was born in 1592 in Dorchester, England or more specifically on 10 Sep 1592 in Edwardstone, Groton, Suffolk, England [4]

None of these sources are strong; better, more original sources sought.

He is said to have immigrated with his wife Mary as part of Winthrop's Fleet in 1630, settling in Dorchester, Massachusetts. [5][6][7][8]

Robert and Mary Pond came from Groton, Suffolk, England to Massachusetts in 1630 with the Winthrop fleet of 11 ships. [9] In this group was Robert and his brother, John: - John Pond of Groton, Suffolk to Boston [returned to England] - Robert Pond of Groton, Suffolk to Dorchester [carpenter, d 1637] - Mrs. Mary Pond [wife of Robert]

Robert may have been the brother of a John Pond.
John was sent back to England by Winthrop for more provisions. Winthrop afterward sent his love to William Pond, who had been one of his neighbors in England. In a letter from Governor John Winthrop in Massachusetts to his oldest son back in Groton, E
