Notes:

From FindaGrave
John was born the son of John and Martha (Timbrell) Washborne. Martha was the widow of Mr. (__) Stevens.

John was baptized at Bengeworth, Worcestershire, England, on 2 July 1597.

John married Margery Moore about [23 November?] 1618 in Bengeworth, Worcestershire, England. They had children:
Mary Washborne @1619-
John Washborne 1620-
Philip Washborne 1622-1622
Philip Washborne 1624-

John moved to Plymouth Colony in 1632. He traveled alone, and was joined by his wife Margery and their sons John and Philip in April 1635.

John lived in Duxbury and, towards the end of his life, in Bridgewater.

John died early in 1671 (living on 17 March 1670/71 and 22 May 1671 when his son was called Jr, but died soon after, as the will was altered to call the son Sr.) and is presumed to have died in Bridgewater. Where and when exactly is unknown, along with the location of his burial place.

Immigration:
John came alone and was followed 3 years later by his wife and sons.

John married Margery Moore about 23 Nov 1618 in Bengeworth, Worcestershire, England, United Kingdom. Margery (daughter of Robert Moore and Ellen Taylor) was born about 1586 in Bengeworth, Worcestershire, England, United Kingdom; died in Duxbury, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States.

Notes:

In 1721, it seems like John Washburn was appointed guardian for his children. That's shortly after his wife's death. So, that would mean that they had inherited something from her family. Need to find that will or estate record.

Died:
17 Jun or 27 Jun

Notes:

There is a death record in 1845 for a Benjamin Peterson, age 8, listed as son of Franklin. Another record says he could be the son of Washington. But, since this Benjamin appears in the same family as Franklin and the rest of the family in 1855, I really do not believe the 1845 Benjamin is this one.

Military:
On 24 Feb 1900, he applied for an invalid pension from the Civil War.
Application Number 1244813, Certificate Number 1002830.

On 8 Jan 1915, his widow applied for a Widow's pension as well.
Application No. 1039558, Certificate No. 792981

Census:
They are next door to Benjamin's father in 1900. Benjamin's birth date is recorded as Oct 1836, but Maria's is Oct 1843. I believe hers, but all other records point to his in June.

Benjamin married Maria Beers on 1 May 1867 in Easton, Northampton, Pennsylvania, United States. Maria (daughter of William Beers and Rebecca B.) was born in 1844 in Phillipsburg, Warren, New Jersey, United States; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

So far, we have not yet found a death date for Sarah. She does not appear in the Massachusetts 1920 or 1930 census. Nor in the town records or death indexes. It seems unlikely that she moved away but we have not found a death record.

There is a story in the Boston Globe about a Sarah Hooper, elderly (62 years), paralytic, who was being transported to the state hospital at Tewksbury and got stuck in a hearse for 8 hours. But, our Sarah Hooper is in Whitman in 1917-1920.

Census:
Sarah is enumerated in her father's home in 1900. There is a Benjamin F. Peterson next door who may be an older brother. She is listed as divorced and as having 3 children, all three of whom are still living. Sarah notes that she had three children, all of whom are still living in 1910.

Census:
In 1910, Sarah is living as a boarder. She reports that she is a widow and that 2 of her 3 children are living.

Sarah married Amos W. Merrow on 13 Apr 1873 in Abington, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States, and was divorced on 8 Aug 1877 in Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States. Amos (son of Seth Merrow and Phoebe) was born in 1849 in New Hampshire, United States; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Sarah married Walter S. Hooper on 14 Mar 1878 in East Bridgewater, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States, and was divorced on 7 May 1891 in Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States. Walter (son of Cornelius Ellis Hooper and Salome Pool Thayer) was born on 19 Mar 1849 in Brockton, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States; died on 13 Mar 1916 in Rockland, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States; was buried in Bridgewater, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States.

Lester gives his mother as his nearest relative. This probably means his father is dead rather than divorced. I believe that to be the case.

Notes:

When did Edward Laracy die? When exactly did they marry? Seems the Weymouth marriage records for those dates are not online, nor are the state records.

What about John Shand? When did he come around? There is a John Shand in Quincy, but he left a widow Mary when he died.

Birth:
According to her birth record, Edna's parents where Charles F and Cora S. Hooper Ross. He was a box maker from Boston and she was a native of Whitman.

Census:
Edna is listed as an office girl in a shoe factory in the 1920 Census.

Census:
In the 1940 Census, Edna reports the information and claims to be 32 years old, when in fact she is 38.

Edna married Edward Paul Laracy in 1931 in Weymouth, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States. Edward (son of Martin Laracy and Mary Ann Welch) was born on 15 Nov 1879 in Walpole, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States; died in 1954 in Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States.

Notes:

Rotha never married.

As a child, after her father abandoned the family, Rotha went to live with an aunt and uncle.

Census:
Rotha is found in the home of Ancon(?) W. and Clara H. Jenkins and is listed as a niece of the head of the household.

Clara H. Jenkins is Clara Hooper Jenkins, aunt of Cora and great-aunt of Rotha.

Census:
In 1920, Rotha is listed merely as the ward of Ancon W. Jenkins. His wife, Clara is no longer in the home. Remarkably, he has gone from 50 to 40 years old. It seems likely that the age in 1910 was incorrect.

Census:
Rotha is listed as a stenographer in 1930 for an attorney.

Residence:
Rotha returned from Bermuda on 21 Jun 1937 aboard the Queen of Bermuda. She reported that she was 33 years old, born in 1904 in Whitman, Mass.

This is really probably 123 W. 13th St, since that's where the Evangeline Residence was located.

Died:
Some sources hint that her death happened in Hanover, but the Massachusetts Death Index says Braintree.
