2. | Matthew RANSOM (1.Susanna1) was born about 1661 in Sandwich, Massachusetts; died before 1690 in Saybrook, Middlesex Co., Connecticut. Notes:
Excerpt from "New England Families Genealogical and Memorial: Thrid Series, Vo. IV" :Matthew was a tanner by trade, and settled in Saybrook, Connecticut, where he received 4 acres of land, in consideration of settling there to carry on his occupation. This was in what was known as the "Oyster River Quarter," now Westbrook, Connecticut. The Saybrook records contain no further mention of him except to record one child, and it is presumed that he died in early life.
Name:
It has been brought to my attention though an e-mail from Kirk Ransom, dtd 2-28-2012, that Matthew Ransom is not the son of Robert Ransom of Plymouth MA. This has been determined by DNA testing. So for this reason, I have removed Matthew as being the son of Robert.
Matthew married Hannah JONES on 07 Mar 1682/3 in Saybrook, Middlesex, Connecticut. Hannah was born in 1660. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

- 9. Joseph RANSOM was born on 10 Jan 1683/4 in Saybrook, Middlesex, Connecticut, USA.

3. | Joshua RANSOM (1.Susanna1) was born about 1665 in Sandwich, Massachusetts; died after 3 Dec 1713 in Plympton, Massachusetts. Notes:
The record of Joshua's life and career is obscure and involved in much uncertainty. It is obvious from a close review of the Plymouth records that he was a man active in affairs, having numerous land deals, indicating that he was a general trade and property man. After his second marriage his relations to his children seem to have been mainly restricted to John, the son, by his wife, Susanna, and gave him the home at Plympton previous to his death. It seems quite likely that Robert and Mary, the children by Mary Gifford, remained in Rhode Island after their mother's death in their uncle's (Yelverton0Gifford) family, where they were reared.[gifford.ged]
