The Hampshire Origins of the New England Terry Families

Richard L. Tolman, Ph. D.

Examination of the genealogical literature identifies SEVEN New England Terry families that emigrated from England in the early 17th century.¹,²,³

Below are listed the Terry immigrant founders of each of these seven families [I-VII]:
[I] Stephen Terry, of Dorchester, MA; immigrated 1630 on the Mary and John
[II] John Terry, of Windsor, MA; immigrated 1635 on the Abigail—32 yrs of age (may be a brother to Stephen)
[III] Samuel Terry, of Springfield, MA; immigrated 1650—18 yrs. of age.
[IV] Thomas Terry, of Freetown, MA and Block Island; immigrated before 1638.
[V] Thomas Terry, of Southold, NY; immigrated 1635 (28 yrs of age) on the James.
[VI] Robert Terry, of Flushing, NY; immigrated 1635 (25 yrs of age) on the James (brother to Thomas and Richard?).
[VII] Richard Terry, of Southold, NY; immigrated 1635 (17 yrs of age) on the James (brother to Thomas and Robert?).

Considering the time period of these immigrations, they have in common the establishment of the Massachusetts Bay Colony which was a product of the effort of the Massachusetts Bay Company, a joint-stock company that was granted a royal charter by King Charles I of England in 1629. The company’s purpose was to establish a colony in the New World, specifically in the region that would become known as Massachusetts Bay. The Massachusetts Bay Company was founded by a group of Puritan merchants and religious leaders, many of whom were seeking religious freedom and the ability to establish a community based on their own beliefs. The company’s charter granted them the right to govern and administer the colony as they saw fit, within the framework of English law.

There are more Terry immigrants to New England in this period than would be expected if one examines the surnames of New Englander immigrants in the 1600’s.⁴ There is a reason for this: the Reverend John White/Whyte, M.A.⁵,⁶ the ‘Patriarch of Dorchester, Massachusetts’. Whyte, the rector of Holy Trinity in Dorchester, Dorset (England), was a member of the Massachusetts Bay Company and was instrumental in obtaining the charter for the New England colony. He actively recruited Massachusetts immigrants which included from his extended family.

John’s sister was Mary White (1571-1637) who married abt 1591 John Terry the elder (1555-1625), the rector of Stockton in Wiltshire. John was born in Long Sutton, Hampshire, the son of Stephen Terry and Alice Cannar. Both rectors, John Whyte and John Terry, were strongly anti-Catholic and published tracts to support their views. They both believed that the solution to becoming a good Christian was to leave England to live in some isolation to practice their faith. John Whyte desired a colony in New England that could serve as a refuge for non-Separatist dissenters (which included the Puritans). These groups did not wish a separation from the Church of England but wished to remove the vestiges of Catholicism to make a simpler and more austere faith. John Whyte never traveled to America himself but recruited actively for those who would go to Massachusetts.⁷ The sailing of the Mary and John to Dorchester, Massachusetts Bay Colony was his project; among the passengers was his nephew Stephen Terry [I], son of his sister Mary and John Terry. One of the next ships to sail for the Massachusetts Bay Colony was the Abigail (sailed 1635); her passenger list included John Terry [II] (thought by many to be a brother to Stephen and therefore another nephew of John Whyte).

John Whyte was baptized at Stanton St. John in Oxfordshire 6 Jan 1574/5 the son of John White Sr. and Isabel Bawle. A puritan divine, he was educated at New College Oxford (BA 1597) and was appointed rector of Holy Trinity & St. Peters (Dorchester, Dorset) in 1606; Whyte was considered a ‘moderate puritan’ relative to the Plantations governor John Endicott (he arrived on the Abigail). Also, in 1606 Whyte married Mary Burges who came from a strong puritan background; she bore him four sons. He died 21 Jul 1848 at Dorchester, Dorset after 43 years of service to the Dorchester church.⁸

It is not surprising that most or all the New England Terry families are part of one expansive British Terry family perhaps all descended from fourteenth century Hampshire tenant farmers. The puritan Rev. John Whyte (the ‘real founder of the Massachusetts Bay Colony’ and brother-in-law of John Terry the elder) recruited his own family heavily for potential emigrants.

Identities of the Seven Terry New England Immigrants:

Below is an outline of the genealogy of the seven 16th century Terry immigrants.

[I] Stephen Terry of Dorchester—arrived on the Mary and John (b. 1608)⁹ according to Savage¹⁰. He was born and raised in Stockton, Wiltshire and married 13 Mar 1633/4 at Symondsbury, Dorsetshire (1) Jane Hardey, but lost her in death at Windsor, Connecticut 5 Jun 1647,¹¹ vide infra (103). About 1660 he moved to Hadley, Massachusetts where he was a ‘first settler’ and became the first constable. He died in Sep. 1668 leaving a widow Elizabeth ____, a son John¹² (b. 1638) and three daughters Mary (b. 1635), Elizabeth (b. 1641, and Abigail (b. 1646).¹³ The widow Elizabeth died 11 Aug 1683 at age 90. His son John had a large family (7 children, b 1663-1684).¹⁴ Stephen is likely the grandson of Stephen and Anne Cannar Terry of Long Sutton Hampshire and son of their son John the Elder 85.

[II] John Terry—exists in Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut according to Savage¹⁵ (age 32, therefore b. abt 1607), when he immigrated from London in 1635. He is listed in the Abigail passenger list as ‘Jo’ Terry (Joseph¹⁶,¹⁷,¹⁸ or John). There are no records in Goodwin¹⁹ or Stiles²⁰. All Windsor references to a John Terry relate to Stephen’s son, b. 1638; there are no records at all for ‘Joseph’. Stephen Terry [I] did have a brother John 101, b. abt 1603, who generated no records in Wiltshire after 1635 making him the most obvious choice for [II] (Occam’s razor)²¹.
Alternatively, it is possible that he is the John Terry (son of John Terry 92 and Elizabeth Gale Pierpoynt Terry b. 1598) who may have sailed on the Abigail in 1635.²² Although, Paul Terry Thompson in his book All About Terrys purports that this John Terry 92 (m. Mary) with his brothers Stephen and Thomas emigrated to York County, Virginia.²³

[III] Samuel Terry of Springfield,²⁴ was a farmer and weaver, b. 1632²⁵ and died 2 Jan 1731 at Enfield, Hartford, Connecticut, buried in the Springfield Cemetery, Hampden, Massachusetts.²⁶ The first record of him is his apprenticeship to Benjamin Cooly, weaver in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1650.²⁷ He was indentured in England by Mr. Pynchon, and was said to be ‘of Barnet’, a borough of North London that includes Totteridge—this would make him a descendant (grandson) of John Terry the Younger 92, a goldsmith of that place.²⁸,²⁹ He married (1) Anne Lobdell (1634-1684),³⁰ nine children; their oldest son was born 1661 and was also named (Capt.) Samuel. He married (2) 19 Nov 1690 Sarah Blisse Scott.

[IV] Lieutenant Thomas Terry of Freetown³¹ (Bristol County) Massachusetts. Of England, he first appears in Braintree, MA and in quarter court in Boston Dec 4, 1638.³² He bought land on Block Island 1660 and was made a freeman of Rhode Island in 1664 and was a deputy in the General Court of Block Island in 1665. He participated in obtaining a township charter for Block Island in 1672 and was active there during Phillip’s War. He then removed to Freetown³³ where he was one of the first board of selectmen of Freetown, Massachusetts, elected Jun 2, 1685, and was reelected 1686-1690. In 1689 he was the largest taxpayer in Freetown; died in Freetown in 1702. He was married to Ann ____ (she died in Freetown in 1704); three sons: (1) Thomas (born abt 1675) married 4 Jan 1699/1700 Abigail Dean (he was elected assessor in 1704, he became a selectman in 1705, and a lieutenant in the Freetown militia in 1715) and died in 1757; (2) John, md 3 Apr 1705 Remember Harrow, dau of John; and (3) Benjamin md. Margaret ____. Considering all this, he was probably born abt 1620.
Some authors believe Thomas, son of Samuel [III] and Thomas [VII] are the same individual.³⁴ This is unlikely considering the great disparity in their birthyears; Thomas of Freetown was made a Freeman of Rhode Island the year Thomas, son of Samuel [III] was born. Similarly, the Thomas of Southold (b. 1607) would seem to be too old to be the Thomas of Freehold who was having children in the 1670’s.³⁵ After examining the evidence it is quite clear that these three Thomas Terrys and Thomas Terry of Bucks are four separate persons:
(1) Thomas of Freetown (d. 1702) was married to Ann, Thomas of Southold (d. 1672) was married to Marie, Thomas of Springfield married Mary in 1687 and Thomas of Bucks (d. 1703) was married to (Sarah).
(2) Thomas of Freetown, Thomas of Springfield, and Thomas of Southold were all generating records that would indicate they spent most of their time in their respective towns.
(3) Their available wills acknowledge only the children born in that particular jurisdiction.

[V, VI, VII] Thomas, Robert, and Richard Terry (brothers?) came from London³⁶ in 1635 on the James and two of them (Thomas and Richard) settled in Southold, NY (Long Island).³⁷ The third, Robert Terry, went to Flushing, NY; he had at least two children one of whom has been proven³⁸,³⁹ (by DNA) to be ‘Thomas Terry of Bucks’.
All that is known of the ‘brothers’ is their age at emigration⁴⁰ and that they were unmarried in 1635 (spouses would be listed in the passenger list). They are only presumed to be brothers and are claimed by contemporary Terry researchers to have originated from Hampshire (Long Sutton); however, the record states only that they sailed from London.⁴¹ Exhaustive search of the English parish registers for ter*/tyr* has failed to identify a family with three sons with appropriate birthyears. We therefore are forced to presume the three young men are not of the same family. There are many ‘Thomases’ but comparatively few ‘Roberts’ and ‘Richards’. Aguayo⁴² and Chambers⁴³ claim the brothers are sons of James (88) and Anne (Peacocke) Terry of Long Sutton; this is untenable as their sons Thomas and Robert were having children in Hampshire at the time of the voyage of the James vide infra.⁴⁴ Other Long Sutton Hampshire Terry families (Thomas 91 and Joan) have been considered as sources of the three brothers and ruled out (cf Bogner); there are no matches for the three emigrants in the Hampshire Baptism Index. Bogner⁴⁵,⁴⁶ maintains that there is no proof that the three brothers come from Hampshire at all and favors a Terry family in Throwley, Kent.
The other genealogical possibilities of the three Terry emigrants will now be separately considered including surveys of the English parish registers. According to ChatGPT⁴⁷ historians estimate that 70-85% of the English population were represented in the 17^th century Anglican parish registers. For the Terry family the percentage may be somewhat higher as they were known to be not Catholic and one of the major motivations for emigration was freedom to practice their (Anglican) religion. Thomas [V] and Richard [VII] routinely had the Anglican baptisms of their children recorded; Robert [VI] did not.

Thomas Terry [V] of Southold, Suffolk, Long Island, New York.
Parish Register Survey: There is a son Thomas Terry b. 1607⁴⁸ at Throwley,Kent (no parent listed)—also two Thomas Terry deaths in Kent before 1625, but there is no Robert or Richard Terry in the Throwley, Kent records. For a Thomas Terry b. 1607 there are however other possibilities: (1) Thomas Terre (father William) of St. Clement, Eastcheap, City of London, baptized 26 Feb 1608⁴⁹; (2) Thomas Terry (father Rogeri) of Wensley, Yorkshire baptized 16 Jan 1606(7)⁵⁰; (3) Thomas Terrell (father Richard or Thomas⁵¹) of Dorking (Newdigate, St. Peter), Surrey christened 8 Jan 1608⁵² and a (4) Thomas Tery (father Gabriel) of Eastling, Kent christened 6 Apr 1606⁵³ (this Thomas is probably the one who was buried⁵⁴ in Favershaw, Kent—close to Eastling—in 1620).
There seems to be no reason to prefer the Throwley Thomas over alternatives (1)—(3).

Robert Terry [VI] of Flushing, Queens, New York.
Parish Register Survey: Searches of the parish registers For Robert b. 1609-1611 identified three possibilities: (1) Robert Terry of East Grinstead, Sussex⁵⁵ son of Robert Terry (no prospective marriages or early deaths). (2) Robert Tery of Eastling, Kent⁵⁶ son of Robert Terry (no prospective marriages or early deaths) and (3) Robert Terry of Dewsbury, York⁵⁷ son of Parcivall Terry. He likely married Mary Barry in 1634 at York. No (3) is out because he was probably married at the time of the sailing of the James and (1) and (2) are possibles but not compelling.
We note that there is a Clement⁵⁸ Terry (b. abt 1530) of Crondall, Hampshire (a very unusual forename) who has a namesake in a son Clement of Robert Terry’s son Thomas Terry of Bucks (b. 1653). This is strong encouragement that Robert Terry the emigrant may have come from Hampshire.

Richard Terry [VII] of Southold, Suffolk, Long Island, New York.
Parish Register Survey: Bogner⁵⁹ claims a Richard Terry was born 1618 in Throwley, Kent to Thomas and Joan Binge Terry, but there are no parish records or any other records to confirm this. Also, the existence of this Throwley couple or their marriage cannot be confirmed from the historical records of Kent. There is a Richard Terry born 1617 in Molash, Kent and a death⁶⁰ of Richard Terry in 1619 at Molash also.
From the parish registers there are other possibilities: (1) Richard Tery son of Walter and Margaret Tery christened⁶¹ 14 Feb 1618 at Tickenham, Somerset and (2) Richard Terry son of John christened⁶² 12 Oct 1617 at Middlesex (Hackney, St. Leonard, Shoreditch, London), England. This Richard (2) is the son of John Terry (124), grandson of John Terry the Younger (92) based on the reported parentage and christening dates; therefore, tentatively identified as [VII].

Could it be significant that two of the three Terry emigrants remained together in Southold, Long Island? —Perhaps Thomas and Richard were more closely related or knew each other before sailing on the James. Among the possibilities considered above, there is a Thomas and a Richard both baptized in London—one at St. Leonard, Shoreditch [Richard (2)] and the other at St. Clement, Eastcheap [Thomas (1)]. The churches are actually close together in central London—one east of the Tower of London and the other north of same.

Hampshire Origins of the Terry Family:

The Stockton, Wilshire Rector John Terry was born in Long Sutton, Hampshire and most of the Terrys in this essay have their origins in Hampshire in or near Long Sutton. In Hampshire they were tenant farmers on the Crondall Hundred. The term ‘Hundred’ dates back to the Anglo-Saxon period and was a geographic division of land typically containing about one hundred households encompassing many settlements and parishes.

During the Elizabethan era the monarch owned all the land (divided into Hundreds—rents were administered by the Church). Nobility and wealthy landowners held their land through freehold tenure, which meant they owned their land outright. Tenant farmers held their land through copyhold tenure. Copyhold tenants had rights to work and live on the land, but they had certain obligations to the landowner and had limited control over the property. In the 16th century feudal system primogeniture was the common practice; the eldest son inherited the majority of the land, while younger sons sometimes received smaller land portions or had the option of the Church or the army. Daughters usually did not inherit land but could receive dowries or be married off to landowning families. Frequently mentioned in land documents of the time is a heriot—a tribute or feudal duty paid to the landlord after the death of a tenant consisting of a horse or other live animal or other belongings of the decedent. In order to transfer a copyhold tenancy, the tenant surrendered the tenancy to his will which then could name the inheritor of the tenancy.⁶³ A yeoman is a farmer, and a husbandman is a lower rank of farmer. The Crondall Hundred of extreme northeast Hampshire, was land bequeathed by Alfred the Great to his son Eltham in 885, later tenanted by Elizabeth the First and divided into manors; the steward landowner administered the tenancies on behalf of the ‘monks of St. Swithen’ and later the Winchester Cathedral.⁶⁴

Sources for the Ancient Terrys

There are few sources from the ancient time period. The Hampshire Parish registers begin abt 1537; relevant 16th century parishes⁶⁵ in the area are: the Long Sutton Parish, the South Warnborough Parish (2 mi W of Long Sutton), and the Crondall Parish (4 mi NE of Long Sutton). Also generating records in the 16th century, but further removed from Long Sutton are Odiham Parish (NW) and Upton Grey Parish (W). South Warnborough, Odiham, and Upton had no Terry burials before 1650. Robert Terry b. 1490 and his family (and son Richard) were in Long Sutton and John Terry (and son John) and his family were in Crokeham (Crookham)/Crondall parish.

Land records are outlined in the Crondal Customary of 1567⁶⁷ that lists the tenants of the Crondall Hundred. There are many difficult-to-read wills which provide some genealogical detail. The Long Sutton wills are excellently summarized in a book by Diane Coldicott⁶⁸ and other wills of the Crondall Hundred and excerpts⁶⁹ of same are available on FamilySearch. Justin Kellogg wrote a genealogical history (published Geneva, Switzerland in 1898) and it included a chapter⁷⁰ on the ‘Terry Family of the Manor of Crondal’. There is a description of Kellogg’s visit to the Public Record Office in Chancery Lane, London where he notes from the Court Rolls a line of Terrys going back to 1426. According to Kellogg the sequence of Terry tenants of land (Long Sutton) is as follows: October 1426 John Terry, 16 October 1431 John Terry, 20 May 1432 John Terry, 7 May 1487 Thomas Terry, 3 April 1494 Thomas Terry, 22 October 1510 Robert Terry/Thomas Terry/John Terry, 29 April 1511 John Terry, 10 October 1516 Robert Terry/Thomas Terry/John Terry, 21 April 1517 Richard Terry, 4 October 1529 Thomas Terry/Richard Terry. Unfortunately, it is not that simple to trace the Terry lineage as there are many Terry tenants in the Crondall Hundred. Beside the Crondal Customary, a transcription of an accompanying document is useful—called the Baigent Crondal Records: Documents and Records Relating to the Hundred and Manor of Crondal in Hampshire (part 6), pp. 258-383.⁷¹

In the Crondal Customary dated 10 October 1567 the Long Sutton tenancy was transferred from Richard Terry to his son (brother?)⁷² Stephen as well as the lands of a William Terry. Richard is the oldest of the four children of Robert Terry.⁷³ Witness the confusion abt the Robert and Richard Terrys in the genealogical literature. It appears that the Terrys (5, Richard, b. abt 1460) first moved to Long Sutton from Crokeham (Crondall Hundred) before 1500. Examination of the available wills of the period it seems that the Terrys lived first in the 15th century in Farnham, Surrey (many of the later Terry burials were returned to the Farnham cemetery). Later the Terrys moved to Bramley, Hampshire briefly before settling in Crookham, Crondall Hundred and then a branch of the family went to nearby Long Sutton, Hampshire in the mid-16th century. The latter part of this essay is an attempted reconstruction of the Terry genealogy in Hampshire using primarily the 20,000 Old English Hampshire wills of the time period.

There are a lot of Terrys in the Crondall hundred and many different spellings in the records from Terrye to Tyr. Notable are a Richard Tyrrie, a John Terie and a Clement⁷⁴ Tyrry, who lived in Crondall parish; they are contemporaries (sibs or cousins?) of the children of Richard Terry (13). In the 16th century the Ancient Terrys seem to be bifurcated into groups: the Long Sutton bunch and the Crondall/Crokeham/Crookham group. The people of this time had the annoying tendency to give the same name to more than one child and to use the same few names over and over again to add to the genealogist’s confusion.

The Crondal Customary of 1567 lists the tenants of the Crondall Hundred. Below are excerpted all those with the Terry surname.⁷⁵

He married abt 1591 Mary White daughter of John White of Stanton St. John. She was a sister of the puritan minister John White, the ‘Patriarch of Dorchester’ who is often called the real Founder of the Massachusetts Bay Colony (he never went to America).²¹¹ Mary died²¹² in 1637 at the home of her brother John ‘Whyte’, Rector of Dorchester and was buried 17 Oct 1637 in Dorchester, Dorset. Will of John Terry the Elder.²¹³,²¹⁴

100 iv. JOSIAH TERRY (called John in his father’s will) born before 1608 at Stockton, Wiltshire. He married Margaret ____.²²⁰,²²¹ This ‘brother John’ is a likely candidate for New England immigrant [I].

James and Alce Anne (Peacocke) Terry had ten or more children.²³⁰

The New England immigrant ‘brothers’ [V, VI, VII] are not the sons of this couple as their birthdates are wrong. In particular, the son Richard is too old (b. 1609) to be the immigrant Richard (b. 1618). There is evidence that Thomas and Robert were in England having children after 1635 vide supra.

109 vii. RICHARD TERRY christened²³⁷ 3 Nov 1609 at Long Sutton, Hampshire. One of the co-executors of his father’s will. Too old, therefore improbably [VI]

110 viii. NATHAN TERRY of Long Sutton, Hampshire.

She was born abt 1575 and died 1659 at Long Sutton, Hampshire.²⁴² This family also cannot be the origin of the three brothers: Thomas has the wrong birthyear; Robert (b. 1610) coincident with the birth of their son James; and there is no son Richard.

Thomas and Johan Terry had nine children:²⁴³,²⁴⁴

113 i. STEPHEN TERRY born and died in 1597.

123 ii. JOHN TERRY (Torrey) christened²⁶⁸ 17 Jul 1598 of Totteridge, Hertfordshire (now Buckinghamshire). He is unlikely to have sailed to Massachusetts on the Abigail²⁶⁹ in 1635 (age of immigrant 32); ages don’t match. Co-executor of his father’s will.

He was a Master of Arts from Caius college Cambridge.²⁷⁹ He was a witness at the signing of his father’s will in 1631 and therefore cannot be the Stephen who went to Dorchester MA in 1630.²⁸⁰ At least five children that may have included Samuel Terry of Springfield, MA [III]. For more family details and transcription of wills, see Cotswan.²⁸¹
