    Notes:

    Name:
    John Deane III was a prosperous farmer in Taunton. His wife, Hannah Bird, was the granddaughter of Richard Williams, who is spoken of as the "Father of Taunton." He was the fist on the list of "original purchasers" who became a permanent settler, and is described as a man of large organizing power and great business ability. He owned a big estate, held a large number of shares in the Raynham Iron Works, was Representative to the Plymouth Court a number of times and was for many years Deacon of the Church. It is said that he was a distant cousin of Cromwell. Whether this is true or not, we know he was a rigid Puritan. When he was blind and deaf in his old age, he was accustomed to attend public worship, saying that although he could neither see nor hear, it was consoling to his feelings to know that he was present while the people of God were at their worship. He died in 192, age 93. The Village of Dighton was named for his wife, Frances Dighton Williams, on the 100th anniversary of her birth.

    John married Hannah BIRD on 21 Sep 1699 in Taunton, Bristol, Massachusetts, USA. Hannah (daughter of John BIRD and Elizabeth WILLIAMS) was born on 16 Dec 1677 in Dorchester, Suffolk Co., Massachusetts; died on 15 Jul 1748 in Taunton, Bristol, Massachusetts, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
