2151 From Findagrave:
A Mayflower passenger.

John Billington (also spelled Billinton) was born in Lincolnshire around 1580. He lived in Cowbit, Lincolnshire before emigrating to the New World.

Billington departed on the Mayflower in September 1620 with his wife Eleanor and sons John Jr. and Francis. Thanks to inclement weather, the ship arrived in America hundreds of miles further north than intended. Along with forty others, Billington signed the Mayflower Compact on November 11 (O.S.), while the ship lay at anchor. Disembarking at Cape Cod, the Pilgrims founded Plymouth, a colony that would lose almost half its inhabitants the first winter.

The Billingtons thoroughly established themselves as troublemakers among the Pilgrims. John Sr. challenged Myles Standish's authority on multiple occasions. Though implicated in a 1624 revolt against the Plymouth church, Billington insisted that he was innocent and escaped punished. In 1625, William Bradford wrote a letter to Robert Cushman denouncing Billington as a "knave."

Other incidents only contributed to the Billington family reputation. Francis nearly blew up the Mayflower. John Jr. got lost in the woods and was captured by the hostile Nausets. Eleanor was pilloried and whipped for slander.

John Billington is best remembered for an event in September 1630, on a day he went out hunting for deer. He stumbled across his mortal enemy, a young settler named John Newcomen. Newcomen, fearing for his life, hid behind some trees. Billington, deadly marksman to the last, struck Newcomen in the shoulder, a shot that spelled death for both of them. Billington was tried by jury, convicted, and hanged for the murder.

Two contemporary sources record the details.

"This year John Billington the elder (one that came over with the first) was arraigned; and both by grand, and petty jury found guilty of willful murder; by plain and notorious evidence. And was for the same accordingly executed. This as it was the first execution amongst them, so was it a matter of great sadness unto them; they used all due means about his trial, and took the advice of Mr. Winthrop, and other the ablest gentlemen in the Bay of Massachusetts, that were then newly come over, who concurred with them that he ought to die, and the land be purged from blood. He and some of his, had been often punished for miscarriages before, being one of the profanest families amongst them; ... His fact was, that he waylaid a young man, one John Newcomen (about a former quarrel) and shot him with a gun, whereof he died."
- William Bradford

"So when this wilderness began first to be peopled by the English where there was but one poor town, another Cain was found therein, who maliciously slew his neighbor in the field, as he accidentally met him, as he himself was going to shoot deer. The poor fellow perceiving the intent of this Billington, his mortal enemy, sheltered himself behind trees as well as he could for a while; but the other, not being so ill a marksman as to miss his aim, made a shot at them, and struck him on the shoulder, with which he died soon after. The murderer expected that either for want of power to execute for capital offenses, or for want of people to increase the plantation, he should have his life spared; but justice otherwise determined."
- William Hubbard, clergyman

John Billington traveled on Mayflower with his wife Elinor and sons John and Francis.

John and his family were particularly troublesome for the order-loving Puritans. He was hanged in 1630 for the crime of killing a fellow colony member, John Newcomen, with whom he had a long-running feud. He was the first man executed by hanging in the colony.

A Mayflower passenger.

John Billington Jr. was born around 1604. His family had some connections to Lincolnshire.

John sailed on the Mayflower accompanied by his brother Francis and parents John and Eleanor.

Author David Beale writes of a time when young John "wandered off into the woods and was captured five days later by Nauset Indians, the same hostile Indians the Pilgrims had encountered during their initial exploration around Cape Cod. At the familiar sight of the Pilgrims' muskets, the Nausets gladly turned the young Billington over to the ten men who had come to rescue him!"

He died in Plymouth Colony some time between May 1627 and September 1630.

Agnes Clark, daughter of John Clark and Ann Macye, was baptised May 16, 1548 at Colyton, Devonshire. She married at at All Saints in East Budleigh on February 4, 1578, Richard Conant. He was probably born at East Budleigh, Devonshire, about 1548, the son of John Conant. Richard was later described as a church warden of East Budleigh and John Clark was one of Colyton's leading merchants. Richard and Agnes had eight children baptised at East Budleigh. Richard & Agnes Conant were buried the same day, September 22, 1630.

Anne Hamilton McNairy was the daughter of Gen. John Hamilton and Elizabeth Archer. She married Robert McNairy 23 Jul 1790 in Guilford Co, NC. They later moved to Giles Co, TN and lived there the remainder of their lives. Both she and Robert McNairy died in Davidson Co, TN visiting family but are buried on their old home place in Giles Co, TN. The cemetery is TOTALLY destroyed as a fenced in cow lot now. Thank heaven there was a cemetery survey made years ago before ALL of the graves were lost. We will never know about the graves that were lost before the cemetery survey was FINALLY taken.

BIOGRAPHY OF MARTHA WHITE, Sister of John White the Patriarch of Dorchester

Martha was born about 1575, possibly in Stanton St. John, Oxford, England. According to her marriage record in Stockton, Wiltshire, she was the daughter of John White, gentleman, of Stanton St. John. Martha's husband was William Cooke, soon to become the vicar of Crediton, Devon. The rector of Stockton, where they were married, was John Terry, husband of Martha's sister, Mary.

Martha and William had seven children, all born in Crediton. William died in Crediton between February and April of 1615. Marftha remained a widow until sometime between 1620 and 1627, when she married a man named Moore. The will of her sister Mary Terry, dated 1637, names her sister Martha Moore as well as niece Elizabeth Walton. Martha was still living in 1649 when her brother John White, the Patriarch of Dorchester named her in his will. 
White, Martha (I8776)
 
2157 From FindaGrave:
Born about 1624 in Nantasket or Cape Ann MA to Gov. Roger & Sarah (Horton) Conant. Married 1649-1650 to Elizabeth Walton. Their child: Mary (Conant) Burley.

Find A Grave contributor Ken Smith adds:
Lot Conant was born in Dorchester or Cape Ann, Massachusetts, about 1624. He was the son of Roger Conant, who was the original Governor of Cape Ann & Salem, and his wife, Sarah Horton. He married, before 1650, Elizabeth, daughter of Rev. William Walton and Elizabeth Cooke, who was born in Seaton, Devonshire, England in 1629. Lot and Elizabeth were living in Marblehead as early as 1657. Lot was a selectman there in 1662.
In 1666, Lot's father gave him the homestead at Beverly including over 100 acres. On the same day, Lot leased back to his father the house and three acres for an annual rent of "one Indian corn". About this time, Lot probably moved his family back to Beverly and built a house near his father's, because "a dwelling house and orchard containing about 4 acres, with an old house of his father" is mentioned in the inventory of Lot's estate. In 1667 he was one of the founding members of the new church at Bass River, or Beverly. In March of 1670 and March of 1671, he sold his Marblehead houses and lands.
Lot and Elizabeth had ten children, eight born in Marblehead and the last two in Beverly. Lot was described in land deeds as "Lot Conant, yeoman", but in addition to his role as a farmer, he must have also had a trade, possibly shoemaker, as evidenced by his bequest of "the shop and tools" to son Nathaniel in his will. It is known that Nathaniel was a shoemaker. Lot Conant wrote his will on September 24, 1674, and died on September 29, in Beverly. His estate was valued at 780 Pounds. Two years later, Elizabeth married, as his third wife, Andrew Mansfield of Lynn. The death of Elizabeth is not recorded at Beverly, she may have died in Lynn. She was however, alive in 1683 when her husband died.

1624 Will and Inventory of
John Washborne

The 1624 Will and Inventory of John Washborne, of Bengeworth, Worcestershire, England, transcribed from LDS Microfilm #0098025, "Wills of the Consistory Court of Worcester, Diocese of Worcester, 1624," and compared with the transcription of the same in Rev. James Davenport's "The Washbourne Family of Little Washbourne and Wichenford," London, 1907, pp. 42-44.

This microfilm is dark and hard to read, and in addition the right hand side of Washborne's will and bottom of his inventory appear to have been water-damaged. The transcription by Rev. James Davenport is excellent and thorough, word for word, with the will.
