The LANE memorial stone
in Founder's Park, Hampton, New Hampshire
LANE
William Lane (about 1621 – 1715), the immigrant, was my 9th
great grandfather. He was a cordwainer
in Boston, Massachusetts and had two wives named Mary. The first wife’s maiden name was unknown, and
the second wife was Mary Brewer (my 9th great grandmother), daughter
of Thomas Brewer and Elizabeth Graves.
Her sister, Sarah Brewer, was the wife of Thomas Webster, who removed to
Hampton, New Hampshire. William Lane
was made a freeman in Boston 6 May 1657.
William Lane, Jr. (1659 – 1749) and his wife, Sarah Webster,
were first cousins, and my 8th great grandparents. Their names are on a 1681 list of the members
of the 2nd Church (the Old North Church) in Boston, and after that
they removed to Hampton, New Hampshire and settled near Sarah’s father, Thomas
Webster. William Lane was a tailor.
I descend from William Lane, Jr’s son Samuel Lane (1698 –
1776) who married Elizabeth Blake, my 7th great grandparents. They lived in Hampton Falls, and all three
of their first children died of throat distemper on 2 August 1735. Samuel Lane was a farmer. Samuel Lane, Jr. (1741 – 1822) was my 6th
great grandfather.
