He was a miller, and settled at Roxbury, Nottinghamshire, and in 1658 married Martha CRAFFS, daughter of Christopher CRAFFS, of Northamptonshire. In April, 1675, he bought from Fenwick 1,000 acres at Salem, and signed the fundamental articles for the government of the colony, June 28, 1675. He came to America with John FENWICK, in the Ship Griffith, in the summer or fall of 1675, accompanied by his wife Martha and four children--Daniel, Edward, David and Sarah. [2] According to Smith's History, Christopher SAUNDERS was a passenger in the ship Kent, that brought over settlers for Burlington, who arrived at New Castle, Del., 16th of 6th mo. 1677. [3] That is, Bradway's street, so called after Edwin BRADWAY. He bought a town lot and 1,000 acres of land in Salem from FENWICK, in May, 1675, and in June signed the fundamental articles. In 1676 Wharf street was laid out, and a town lot of sixteen acres was surveyed on it for BRADWAY. He and his wife Mary and three children--Mary, William and Susannah--with three servants, sailed from London in the ship Kent, in 3d mo. 1677, and landed at Salem in 7th mo. In 1691 he built a large brick house, which was still standing in 1876. When the town was incorporated, in 1693, the name of Wharf street was officially changed to Bradway street, but it is evident from the deeds above that it was so called as early as 1679. It is now called Broadway. PAGE 340 New Jersey Colonial Documents. (Date destroyed). Inrolled 23d of May, 1679. Lease.

He came to America with his father, his wife Frances, of Dedford, in Kent, and servant, Thomas EDWARDS, in the ship Willing Mind, arriving November 3, 1677, and settled at New Salem, but soon removed to Alloways Creek, near Hancock's Bridge, Salem county.

He was a Justice of the Peace for Salem many years; was appointed a commissioner for laying out highways, in 1685; was King's attorney, in 1686, and in 1701 was a Judge of the courts.

John MADDOX bought of Fenwick 1,000 acres of land in Fenwick's Colony, or Salem Tenth, in May 1675, and on June 28 signed the fundamental articles for the government of the colony. He came over in 1678, accompanied by his wife and daughter, and stepson, Richard DURHAM, and three servants, arriving at New Salem in 9th month-November. He signed the West Jersey Concessions, March 3, 1676-7. On arriving in Salem he took a somewhat active part in the affairs of the town.

William PENN, Proprietor and Governour of Penssilvania, also Proprietor of Salem Tenth, West Jersey, Samuel HEDGE [1] of Hedgefield, John SMITH [2] of Smithfield and Richard TINDALL [3] of Tindall's Bowery in said Tenth, executors of the last will of John FENWICK, to Richard DANIELL of New Salem, for 10 acres there, late in tenure of Widow Elizabeth DANIELL, on Fenwick's Creek, the highway (destroyed). 20 ---------- [1] Samuel HEDGE was the son of Samuel HEDGE, a merchant and citizen of London. He came over with FENWICK, in the summer of 1675, and in the following spring married the latter's daughter Ann. FENWICK conveyed to them a tract of 2,000 in the 11th mo. of the same year (February, 1677). In Upper Mannington, whither the young couple removed, and where they resided until 1685. It was known as the Hedgefield tract. HEDGE signed the West Jersey Concessions, March 3, 1676-7. His father-in-law appointed him Surveyor-General of the Colony, April 30, 1678. He was clerk and recorder of deeds of Salem county, until 1692. As a member of the West Jersey House of Representatives he signed an address to King William III, May 20, 1697, congratualting him on his escape from a reported plot. he was still a member of the House in 1701, when he and other members petitioned the King for the appointment of Andrew Hamilton as Governor of New Jersey. Having been appointed one of his father-in-law's executors, he returned in 1685 to Salem, where he built a brick house on Bradway street, in which he and his wife resided until their death. They had one son, Samuel HEDGE 3d, who married Rebecca PYLE; he died 3d of 11th mo 1708-9, leaving a will, from which it appears that his father was still living. He left a widow and five children, all sons. [2] John SMITH of Smithfield, the son of William SMITH, was born in 1645, in Kent, England, and in 1673 married Susannah MARCY, dau. of Edward MARCY In 1685 he came over with his wife on the Ariel, landing at New Castle in 4th mo. Two months later he bought of Samuel and Ann HEDGE 1,000 acres of the Hedgefield tract, at Upper Mannington, and there resided thenceforth, his place being known as Smithfield. He appears to have been a man of unusual business ability, and he must have possessed more that ordinary tact, to win and keep the good will of the irascible Proprietor of Salem Tenth, who in his will, dated August 7, 1683, named him as one of his executors. [3] Richard TINDALL came to America in 1678, and soon after bought from Fenwick 200 acres at Mannington, his place being known as Tindall's Grove. He was appointed Surveyor General of Salem Tenth, in 1680, and was also employed by James NEVILL to survey William Penn's lands in the same Colony. He was named as an executor in FENWICK's will, of August 7, 1683. PAGE 342 New Jersey Colonial Documents. 1684-5 Feb. 10.

He came over with FENWICK, and brought a wife, but apparently no children. He seems to have had a decided taste for the law, and a fondness for writing, which led FENWICK to appoint him Secretary for the Salem Colony, April 30, 1678. He was a magistrate (commissioned Oct. 26, 1679), a convyancer and scrivener, real estate agent, and a little of everything else. He signed the West Jersey Concessions, March 3, 1676-7. In 1681-4 he was an agent of William PENN, adversely to FENWICK . One of the volumes of Salem Records is filled with miscellaneous memoranda, made by him, of lease, law suits, contracts, etc., etc., of the greatest interest and value to the local Historian.
