NOTES from Myers:
John and Frances married in St. Mary Magdelene's Parish, Taunton. They were in Mass. in 1629 per Plymouth Colony Records. John was Sheriff of the Colony.
They were at Dorchester, 1633-40; church member, 1635; freeman; proprietor, 1636; planter; constable. He was at Scituate, 1640-54; among holdings was 108 acres near mouth of North River on the Marshfield side; constable and sheriff. He was at Lancaster, 1654-62; pioneer settler and held largest "estate" of land. (NEGHR 111:173)

" The Remingtons of Utah," by Ward Roylance (privately published, 1960): JOHN WHITCOMB of Lancaster, John was born in (Dorsetshire?) England about 1588, a son possibly of John Whitcomb of London and his wife Anne, daughter of John Harper of the East India Company. He was married in Taun- ton, Somerset, on 26 November 1623, to FRANCES COGGAN, daughter of Henry.

Apparently well-educated, John is supposed to have settled in Dor- chester, Mass. by 1633; but this seems unusual, since his daughter Joan was baptized in Taunton, England in 1634. (It may be that his wife followed him to New England by a year or two,) John removed to Scituate by 1640, where he had 108 acres, There he remained for some 12 or 14 years, during which he held the position of constable and became a freeman in 1652. Also in 1652 he became interested in the new plantation of Lancaster, but it is probable that he did not actually settle there until 1654, when he conveyed the last of his land in Scituate. John is regarded as one of the founders of Lancaster even though he was not one of the very first to take up actual residence there.

John Whitcomb was involved in some rather humorous litigation in 1657 and 1658 with his neighbor, Stephen Gates. It seems that three of his sons (including Josiah and Job) had accidentally or purposely killed some swine belonging to Gates; and in the belief that it was the honorable thing to do John had given Gates his note promising payment. The next year, however, in December of 1658, "being weak and aged," John petitioned the General Court to excuse him from making payment--stating that Gates had misrepresented the affair, or words to that effect. But the Court adjudged that he must honor his note, inasmuch as he had made it.
