Biography |
- From Peabody:
John Paybody, born in England; came to Plymouth, N. E., as early as 1636, for his name is in the list of freemen of the colony dated March 7, 1636-7, and he was admitted and sworn with others whose names are in that list Jan. 2, 1637-8. He received a grant of ten acres of land Jan. i, 1637-8, " on Duxburrow side, lying betwixt the lands of William Tubs on the north side and those of Experience Mitchell on the south side, and from the sea in the west, and from Blew Fish River in the easte." Another tract, granted him Nov. 2, 1640, was 30 acres " with meadow to it " at North River. He was a member of the jury which convicted three young Englishmen of the murder of an Indian Sept. 4, 1638, and of " the Grand Inquest " at the court June 4, 1639. He was one of the sureties on a neighbor's bond June 4, 1645. ^^ other references to him appear in the records of the colony, save the following copy of his will and testimony about it.
His will was dated 16 July 1649 but was not recorded until 1667. So he may have died around then. However, there is no evidence that his will was proved so we can't be sure when he died.
