FAMILY GENEALOGIES - JOSSELYN, JOSLIN, JOCELYN to PUFFER



JOSSELYN, JOSLIN, JOCELYN, &c.

An old English family, dating back several hundred years, and sett. in Cornwall, Essex, Hertford, Kent, &c. The Earl of Roden, is of the Jocelyns; and Sir Ralph Josceline, of Hertfordshire, was Mayor of London, in 1474 and 1476, being made Knight of the Bath, by King Edward IV., in the former year. The coats of arms vary in different families, and there is one extant in H., different from that which we have presented above, and handed down by tradition. In America, Jno. Josselyn, gent., was in N. Eng. in 1638, and was the author, among other works, of one called "New England's Rarities;” and Henry, his bro., (and son of Sir Thomas; of Kent,) was at Black Point, now Scarborough, Me., in 1634, being sent over, by Capt. Mason, to make "a more complete discovery," and examination of the advantages of the grant made to Capt. M. He was a memb. of the Gen. Court, at Saco, 1636; Councillor in 1639; Dep'y. Gov'r., 1645; a magistrate, and member of the gov't. of the province of Ligonia, 1650; and a commissioner and associate, under Masachusetts, 1658; and during the long period, from 1635 to 1676, he was one of the most active and influential men in the Prov., and during all the changes of proprietorship, and gov't., he held the most important offices.

(Williamson's Hist. of Me., vol. 1, pp. 265, 278, 328, 392, 396, 439 & 682; also, N.E. Gen. Reg., vol. 2, pp. 205-7.) He m. Marg't., wid. of Capt. Thos. Cammock, and it is said had one son, Henry. Family tradition, and other authorities, assert that this son sett. in Scit, Mass., in 1668, m. Abigail Stockbridge, 1676, and was the ancestor of the Josselyns of Plym'h. Co.(Deane's Hist. Scit., and the other works above quoted) but the correctness of this assertion, is somewhat doubtful. According to the Mass. Hist. Coll., vol. 8, third series, "Thos. Jestlin, a husbandman, ae. 43; Rebecca, his W., of the same age; and their ch., Rebecca, ae. 18; Dorothy, ae. 11; Nath'l., ae. 8; Eliza, ae. 6; and Mary, ae. 1; with a maid-servant, Eliza Ward, ae. 38, came to N. Eng., in the Increase, of London, Robert Lea, master, in 1635"; and according to Lincoln's Hist. H'm., Thos., the fa., was in H'm. in 1637; and in 1654, he was in Lancaster, (Worcester Mag. 2, 280,) where he d. in 1660-1. (Midds'x. Rec.) his wid., Rebecca, being Exec'x. of his Est. She m. Wm. Kerley, 1664. Abraham, son of Thos., sen'r., was not with his fa., when he came to N. Eng., in 1635, but seems to have arrived afterward. He was in H'm., in 1647, but moved to Lanc'r. before 1663, and d. bef. 1670; and his wid., Beatrice, m. Serg’t. Benja. Bosworth, of Hull.(See the elaborate comunication of T. M. Harris, in N. E. Gen. Reg., vol. 2, p. 306, et seq.) The desc'ts, of Thos., the fa., and of Abraham, the son, still reside in Lanc'r., and the adjacent towns. The Josselyns of Scit., and H., are desc'ts from Abraham, through his son Henry.
