Chaper V. JONATHAN MILK ( 1728)
Jonathan Milk, b. 9 Mar. 1728, Darmouth, MA (son of Job 1694), may be likened to Joseph of Old, "a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall."...
GENEALOGY OF MERCY TROWBRIDGE
For the interest of the ... descendents, genealogy is here included on the wife of Jonathan Milk, who was MERCY TROWBRIDGE (Strowbridge). (See pedigree chart, p. 65) According to Dartmouth, MA, marriage records: JONATHAN MILK and MERCY STROWBRIDGE of Dartmouth, dau. of Ruth, were married 8 Sep. 1747. TROWBRIDGE GENEALOGY, by Francis Bacon Trowbridge, states that the names of Strowbridge and Trowbridge are the same; it further mentions "John Trowbridge of Sandwich married 3 Feb. 1725-26 in Portsmouth, RI, Ruth Lawton of Dartmouth, MA. Children b. in Newport, RI., Mercy b. 30 Nov. 1726; George b. 25 May 1732."
RI Vital Records, Portsmouth Marriages: RUTH LAWTON and JOHN TROWBRIDGE, 3 Feb. 1725-6. Since later records mention only the name of his wife, RUTH, it is assumed that JOHN TROWBRIDGE either died within a few years or he lived elsewhere. There is no verification of such, but he may have been the John Trowbridge of Newport, RI, mariner, who, having been imprisoned for indebtedness, signed a petition which came before the general assembly of RI in October, 1735. (Petitions to the RI General Assembly - 1728-1733, Vol. II). Evidence that he was a "mariner" with and "indebtedness unto divers persons as well out of the colony as in," would seem to indicate that he had met with a disaster at sea of sufficient magnitude to place him in financial straits.
RUTH LAWTON was the dau. of George and Mary (Dennis) Lawton. Mary Dennis was b. 20 Sep. 1673, Portsmouth, RI, dau. of Robert Dennis and Sarah Howland. Sarah was a dau. of Henry, a brother of John Howland who came on the Mayflower (both sons of Henry Howland, Sr. of Fen Stanton, Huningsdonshire, England.) Henry , Jr. also lived in Plymouth where he was 1624 "owner of the black cow." "He apparently joined (1657) the Friends sect which was just beginning to spread in America and as a result endured for the remainder of his life the various persecutions to which this sect was subjected... Toward the end of his life he became a large possessor of real estate." He d. 17 Jan. 1671. His wife was Mary Newlands, daul of Henry and sister of William, the noted Quaker.
