As Arthur Hathaway married a granddaughter of Mayflower passenger Francis Cooke, the first three generations of Hathaways are explored in detail in:

Wood, Ralph V. Jr.. Francis Cooke of the Mayflower: The First Five Generations. Mayflower Families through Five Generations, v. 12. Rockport, Maine: Picton Press, 1996.

I will not attempt to redo their extensive research; On this page I will summarize their conclusions, supplemented with other sources as I have had opportunity to find them.

ARTHUR¹ HATHAWAY was born at England before 1625 and died at Dartmouth, Bristol County, Massachusetts, on 11 December 1711. He married at Plymouth, Plymouth Colony, on 20 November 1652 SARAH COOKE. She was born at Plymouth about 1635, a daughter of John Cooke and his wife Sarah Warren. She died at Dartmouth after 26 February 1712/3.^[1]

The first reference to Arthur Hathaway in America, is his name on the Marshfield, Plymouth Colony, section of the August 1643 census of men able to bear arms, that is, between the ages of sixteen and sixty. He voted at Town Meeting in Plymouth on October, 1646, indicating an age of at least twenty-one. Arthur Hathaway was born, probably at England, some time before 1625. He came to America some time before 1643. He first settled at Plymouth, where he married and where his first child was born. The birth of his second child was recorded at Duxbury, Plymouth Colony, in 1655/6. He soon moved to the new town of Dartmouth. There he purchased land as early as 10 December 1661, held office as a Selectman at least eight times between 1664 and 1684, took the Oath of Fidelity on 1684, and the Freeman's Oath on 9 December 1709.

Plymouth Colony was settled by towns, in the following manner: (1) The Colony purchased land from the Indians; (2) The colony granted to a group of persons, "proprietors," the rights to settle that land; (3) The proprietors would either settle the land or sell their rights to others who would settle; (4) the Town would be incorporated. With the passage of time, and increase of population, many towns would be subdivided into smaller towns. This first map shows the original Towns of Plymouth Colony:

The following map shows the subdivision of the three Towns most important to this line of Hathaway family history, Plymouth, Dartmouth and Rochester, into smaller Towns.

JOHN² HATHAWAY (Arthur¹) was born at Plymouth on 17 September 1653 a son of Arthur Hathaway and his wife Sarah Cooke, and died at Dartmouth between 11 July and 18 August 1732. He married first at Dartmouth on 15 March 1682/3 JOANNA POPE. She was born at Plymouth about 1655 , a daughter of Thomas Pope and his wife Sarah Jenney. She died at Dartmouth on 25 December 1695. He married second at Dartmouth on 29 September 1696 PATIENCE HUNNEWELL. She was born at Scarborough, Cumberland County, Maine about 1674, a daughter of Richard Hunnewell and his wife Elizabeth Stover. She died after 11 July 1732.

John Hathaway lived out most of his life in the Town of Dartmouth. His first wife, Joanna, died at the age of thirty-seven, leaving John, age forty-two, with children ages eleven, nine, seven, five, two, and one. In nine months he married again, and had ten more children.^[2]

John Hathaway's first wife, Joanna Pope, belonged to another family that moved to Dartmouth in its earlies days. When she was about eighteen years old, King Phillip's War broke out. The Indians attacked the frontier town of Dartmouth, killing two of Joanna's brothers and one sister-in-law, before they could reach the security of a garrison house. Everyone, including the remaining Popes and the Hathaways, left Dartmouth, returning in a few years to rebuild.

When John Hathaway married his second wife, Patience Hunnewell, he was forty-three, she twenty-two. She probably came from Scarborough, in the District of Maine. By the time Patience gave birth to her tenth child, she was forty-three, John was sixty-three. All sixteen children lived to adulthood, and fourteen married.

In 1708, when a Congregational Church was organized in Dartmouth, John Hathaway was one of eighty-six persons petitioning the Province against paying the church tax. John was probably a member of the Society of Friends, which had organized its first meeting in Dartmouth in 1699.

ARTHUR HATHAWAY (John², Arthur¹) was born at Dartmouth, on 3 April 1690 a son of John Hathaway and his first wife Joanna Pope, and died at Rochester between 1759 and 5 June 1778. He married first about 1711 perhaps MARIA LUCE. She was born about 1690 and died at Dartmouth before 1 December 1718. He married second at Rochester on 1 December 1718 MERINAH YOUEN. A daughter of Benoni and Deborah Youen, she died at Rochester on 6 June 1733.^[3]

When Arthur was five years old, his mother died. When he was six, his father remarried, and a large number of half-siblings followed. Arthur was the fourth of sixteen children of his father, all living to adulthood. They all grew up in Dartmouth.

According to Hathaways of America, Arthur Hathaway's first wife was Maria Luce. However, Mayflower Families finds no evidence to support that claim, and leaver her nameless.

Arthur married his first wife probably by the time he was twenty-one, as that was his age at the birth of his first child. Sometime between the birth of his second child, in 1713, and his marriage to his second wife, in 1718, Arthur's first wife had died, and he had moved to Rochester.

Arthur Hathaway had a total of at least seven children. One died at the age of two; three grew up and married; we have no further information on the other three. Arthur's second wife died when he was forty-three.

The name of Arthur Hathaway appeared on a list of Quakers of Wareham, Plymouth County, 26 October 1759. On 5 June 1778 he was referred to as deceased on a deed. Sometime in that span of nineteen years Arthur died.

Arthur Hathaway and his first wife, perhaps Maria Luce, had the following children:

1. SIMON⁴ HATHAWAY b. at Dartmouth on 26 December 1711.
2. JOANNA⁴ HATHAWAY b. at Dartmouth on 5 November 1713.

Arthur Hathaway and his second wife Merinah Youen had the following children:

3. SALATHIEL⁴ HATHAWAY b. at Rochester on 1 May 1719; d. at Wareham on 27 August 1791; m. at Rochester on 29 September 1745 DELIVERANCE GRIFFITH, b. at Rochester on 29 September 1721, child of Jeremiah and Mary Griffith.
4. LORUHOMER⁴ HATHAWAY b. at Rochester on 6 December 1721.
5. BENONI⁴ HATHAWAY b. at Rochester on 20 April 1724; d. there on 6 July 1726.
6. MARY⁴ HATHAWAY b. at Rochester on 28 April 1726.
7. THOMAS⁴ HATHAWAY b. at Rochester on 12 August 1731.

SIMON⁴ HATHAWAY (Arthur³, John², Arthur¹) was born at Dartmouth, on 26 December 1711, a son of Arthur Hathaway and his first wife Maria Luce, and died at Rochester on 20 March 1790. He married at Rochester on 17 September 1736 HANNAH CLIFTON. She was born at Rochester on 21 June 1717, a daughter of Savory Clifton and his wife Dorothy Burgess. She died before 31 May 1808.^[4]

Simon was the eldest child of Arthur Hathaway. By the time Simon was six years old, his mother had died, his family had moved to Rochester, and his father remarried.

In 1739 the Town of Wareham was created from the southern portion of Plymouth and the southeast portion of Rochester. The births of Simon's children, except for the last, were recorded at Wareham. So probably Simon lived in that portion of Rochester that was incorporated into Wareham.

Simon Hathaway and Hannah Clifton married at Rochester when he was twenty-four and she was nineteen. Hannah was born at Rochester, the eleventh of eleven children. Her mother was forty-six years old when she was born.

Simon was reported as a member of the Society of Friends in Wareham on 26 October 1759.

Simon and Hannah had eight children, all of whom lived to adulthood. Three of their five daughters never married.

Simon Hathaway and his wife Hannah Clifton had the following children:

1. SAVORY⁵ HATHAWAY b. at Wareham on 26 July 1739.
2. DAVID⁵ HATHAWAY b. at Wareham on 15 October 1744; d. at Rochester on 8 May 1837; m(1). at Wareham on 2 December 1770 PRISCILLA HILLER, b. at Rochester on 6 June 1752, child of Benjamin and Priscilla Hiller; m(2). at Wareham on 1 May 1797 DELIVERANCE ATWOOD.

7. HASSADIAH⁵ HATHAWAY b. about 1763-4; d. at Wareham on 26 September 1791.
8. MARY⁵ HATHAWAY b. at Rochester about 1770-1; d. at Rochester on 14 June 1835.

THOMAS⁴ HATHAWAY (Arthur³, John², Arthur¹) was born at Rochester on 12 August 1731 a son of Arthur Hathaway and his second wife Merinah Youen, and died before 1790. He married at Wareham on 6 January 1763 MARY BAKER. She was born at Yarmouth, Barnstable County, on 1 March 1735/6, a daughter of Thomas and Phebe (Chase) Baker. She died at Wareham on 2 June 1797.^[5]

Thomas Hathaway was the seventh and last child of Arthur Hathaway, born when his father was forty-one years old. He married Mary Baker, of Yarmouth, when he was thirty-one and she twenty-six. They had only one child. It is not know how long Thomas lived; when the 1790 Census was taken, Mary was a widow. Thomas Hathaway is on the list of members of the Society of Friends in Wareham on 26 October 1759.

Thomas Hathaway and his wife Mary Baker had the following child:

1. SALATHIEL⁵ HATHAWAY b. 1764.

SAVORY⁵ HATHAWAY (Simon⁴, Arthur³, John², Arthur¹) was born at Wareham on 26 July 1739 a son of Simon Hathaway and his wife Hannah Clifton, and died at Wareham between 9 January 1805 and 6 November 1811. He married at Rochester on 13 February 1766 DOROTHY CLIFTON. She was born at Rochester on 9 June 1743, a daughter of Timothy and Deliverance (Bolles) Clifton. She died at Rochester on 6 February 1837.^[6]

Savory's mother and Dorothy's grandfather were siblings. Savory and Dorothy were both the eldest child of large families. Savory's name appears on the list of members of the Society of Friends at Wareham on 26 October 1759.

In spite of his Quaker beliefs, Savory Hathaway participated in the American Revolution. Typical of the "minutemen," Savory responded promptly in time of danger, and went home just as promptly when the danger subsided. He marched on the alarm of 19 April 1775, the day of the Battle of Lexington and Concord, serving four days. On 13 September 1778, he responded to an alarm for Falmouth, on Cape Cod; in five days he had reeturned home.

Savory and Dorothy Hathaway had eleven children; however, not all lived to adulthood. In February of 1776, one year old Charity died. Then, in 1795, the Hathawy family was struck by what would appear to be an epidemic. On 27 November, ten year old Mercy died; four days later, eight year old Dorothy died; ten days after that, sixteen year old Judah succumbed; seven days later, nineteen year old Clifton died. The two oldest children had already married before then; the four remaining children would all marry; however Rebecca remained at home and did not marry until she was forty-seven.

Savory Hathaway sheds some light on his descendants and their situations in his will:^[7]

Savory Hathaway and his wife Dorothy Clifton had the following children:

1. LOVE⁶ HATHAWAY b. at Rochester on 13 June 1766.
2. SARAH⁶ HATHAWAY b. at Rochester on 10 April 1768 ; d. there on 19 July 1849; m. at Wareham on 9 November 1874 PHILIP WING, b. at Rochester on 30 September 1763.

11. DOROTHY⁶ HATHAWAY b. at Rochester on 1 September 1787; d. there on 1 December 1795.

SALATHIEL⁵ HATHAWAY ( Thomas⁴, Arthur³, John², Arthur¹) was born on 1764 a son of Thomas Hathaway and his wife Mary Baker, and died on September 1845. He married at Wareham on 26 November 1786 LOVE⁶ HATHAWAY (Savory⁵, Simon⁴, Arthur³, John², Arthur¹). She was born at Rochester on 13 June 1766, a daughter of Savory Hathaway and his wife Dorothy Clifton. She died at Wareham on 25 August 1842.^[8]

Salathiel grew up in Wareham, Love in neighboring Rochester, part of the large Hathaway extended family. Salathiel's father and Love's grandfather were half-brothers. Salathiel was an only child, and it is not known how long after his birth that his father survived. Love was the oldest of eleven children.

Salathiel and Love Hathaway lived in Wareham, where they raised their eleven children. The first nine all married. I do not know what happened to Charles (b. 1804) and Hiram (b. 1806); the 1820 Census implies their presence in this family.

DAVID⁷ HATHAWAY (Love⁶, Savory⁵, Simon⁴, Arthur³m John², Arthur¹ ) was born at Wareham on 9 March 1799 a son of Salathiel Hathaway and his wife Love Hathaway, and died at Wareham on 3 June 1869. He married at Plymouth on 28 June 1825 SARAH S. KING. She was born at Plymouth on 28 December 1805, a daughter of John King and his wife Polly Briggs . She died at Wareham on 14 April 1883.^[9]

David Hathaway was an iron worker in Wareham. The soil in Wareham contained enough iron to make its processing economically viable. A nail company was established in 1819, which became the Tremont Iron Company. They located iron foundries for the production of nails at Tremont Mill Pond and Parker Mills Pond, in West Wareham. These factories provided work for several generations of Hathaways. The 1850 Census gives us a glimpse into this family:^[10]

Eldest child, Charity, lived only one year; second child, Mary, had married in 1848; sixth child, the first named Sarah, also only lived one year.

Sons John and David married in 1851, daughter Rebecca in 1854; daughter Ruhama died in 1855, at the age of 21. The 1860 Census reported a family of David, 61, laborer, Sarah, 53, daughter Sarah, 23, son Albert, 16, mariner, and daughter Ellen, 13, at school. The family also included Florence B. King, 9, and Elmer D. King, 3, probably relatives of Sarah.^[11]

Daughter Mary married James Fuller, and at some point after 1850 moved to Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts. He was described as an iron worker in 1850, a millwright in 1860, and a wood worker in 1870. Mary died at Boston in 1880 from chronic dysentery; James died at Wareham in 1901 from brain disease.^[12]

Son David remained at Wareham, and was described consistently in censuses as a nailer. His first wife died in 1865 from scrofula consumption. Two years later David remarried; he had two children by each wife. David died at Wareham in 1903 from heart disease; his second wife Emily died at Boston in 1906 from a strangulated femoral hernia, also exhaustion and arteriosclerosis.^[13]

Daughter Sarah married Edward Young in 1871 and they lived at Orleans, Barnstable County. She died there in 1896 from pneumonia. Her husband also died there, in 1909, from organic heart disease, also senility.^[14]

Daughter Rebecca married Joseph Seaver in 1854, and they remained at Wareham, where Joseph worked as a nailer. She died there at the age of forty-two from scrofula. Joseph remarried, and died at Wareham in 1907 from chronic endocarditis, mitral stenosis and regurgitation.^[15]

Son Albert, described in 1860 as a mariner, evidently became a nailer. He married in 1868, was reported, with his wife, living with his mother in the 1870 Census. He died at Minnesota in 1871, age 26, from consumption. His widow, Polly, did not remarry. She returned to Yarmouth, on Cape Cod, where she was born, and died there in 1928 from pneumonia.^[16]

Daughter Ellen married Zenas Tilson in 1868, and they lived at the nearby town of Carver, Plymouth County. Zenas was an iron moulder. Ellen died at the age of forty-eight from a spasm; Zenas died in 1908 from uremia.^[17]

BENONI YOUEN was born before 1671 and died after 1719. He married first DEBORAH ________. She was born about 1665-6 and died at Rochester on 14 December 1715. He married second at Sandwich on 28 May 1719 HAZADIAH LANDERS. She was born on 31 January 1674.

Youen is not a common name in New England. It is sometimes spelled Ewen, which is not common, either. The first reference we can find to Benoni Youen dates from 5 September 1692, at Barnstable County, when he witnessed the settlement of the estate of Joseph Holley.^[18] He had to be at least fourteen to be such a witness, and was probably older. As his first wife was born about 1665-6 and their daughter married in 1718, we can estimate a birth date of before 1670. The next record is the death of his first wife Deborah, at Rochester, in 1715.^[19] Then follows the marriage of their daughter, Merinah, to Arthur Hathaway, at Rochester, in 1718.^[20] The following year he married at Sandwich, Hazadiah Landers.^[21] That's the extent of the very sketchy history we can trace of the mother of Thomas Hathaway.

Benone Youen and his first wife Deborah had the following child:

1. MERINAH YOUEN d. at Rochester on 6 June 1733.

JOHN KING was born at Plymouth on 27 December 1781,^[22] and died at Plymouth on 1 June 1860.^[23] He published intentions of marriage at Plymouth on 9 January 1802 with POLLY BRIGGS.^[24] She was born at Rochester on 11 April 1784, a daughter of Isaac Briggs and his wife Lois Mendall.^[25] She died at Plymouth on 10 January 1847.^[26]

John and Polly King lived in Plymouth; according to an 1846 Directory, John King lived on Sandwich Street, and was a farmer; his son John, listed at the same address, was a seaman.^[27]

Census records before 1850 did not list every person by name, only the heads of households, with the numbers of persons in the household in different age and sex categories. While we cannot say for sure who each person was, the records for this King family do correspond "closely" to what we know of the family from other sources, considering the census takers were often not precise in estimating the ages of adults (Or perhaps Polly just lied about her age).

The births of the first six children were reported in the Plymouth Vital Records. Isaac's birth date and parentage is reported in his death record. The connection of Joanna and Columbus requires a little explaining. When Columbus King died in Pennsylvania, his three children were brought back to Plymouth. According to Plymouth County Probate Court records, Isaac B. King, John King, Jr., and Phineas King, the brothers of Columbus King, requested that Reuben Hall be appointed guardian of Mary L. King, Isaac Lindsly King and Adelaide V. King, children of Columbus King late of New Castle, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania.^[32] In the 1850 and 1860 censuses, John King, the father, was living at the residence of Reuben and Joanna King. When John died, some of the heirs of John King petitioned the Probate Court to have Isaac King appointed administrator of the estate. The petition was signed by John King, Mary Bryant, and Joanna Hall.^[33] The only basis for estimating the birth date of Columbus is his reported age in the 1850 Census. He could have been a twin of Isaac, or a year or two older or younger.

I have no further information on Elihu King beyond his probable presence with his parents in the 1830 Census. I have no information of Phineas beyond his signing a petition for probate court in 1857.

Betsey lived and married at Plymouth, and died from consumption at the age of forty.^[34]

John King, Jr., never married. Reported as a seaman in 1846, he was called a cooper in the following two censuses and his death record. John lived with his parents, and, after his mother's death, he and his father lived with his sister Joanna. He died at Chelsea from heart disease.^[35]

Mary "Polly" King married Caleb Bryant of Plymouth, but by 1840 they had moved to Chelsea. She died there at the age of ninety-three, of old age.^[36]

Joanna and her husband Reuben Hall were living at Plymouth as reported in the 1850 and 1860 censuses, the latter of which follows:^[37]

In addition to Joanna and Reuben and their three children, the family included Adelaide, daughter of her late brother Columbus, for whom they were legal guardians, and Joanna's brother and father, both named John. The 1870 Census reported widow Joanna Hall, 56, living at Chelsea with her daughter and son-in-law, Lorenzo and Hannah Dixon (ages 35 and 30), their son Everett, 4, Joanna's son James, 19, described as an invalid, and two young men, apparently boarders, who, like Lorenzo, were brick layers.^[38]

Isaac King worked as a brick mason at Plymouth according to the 1860 and 1870 censuses. In the latter census, their daughter Augusta lived with them and worked as a school teacher.^[39]

The 1850 Census reported Columbus King, 34, nailer, at New Castle with his wife, Mary, 33, and children Mary, 3, and Isaac, five months.^[40] Columbus died before April 1857.

John and Polly King are buried at Burial Hill, Plymouth.^[41]
