♀Jane (surname unknown)

Died 1679, Salisbury, Essex, Massachusetts Bay Colony, British Colonial America.

Jane (died 16 January 1679/80) was the mother of seven children at Salisbury, in the Massachusetts Bay ColonyW, where her husband John Clough (about 1613–1691) was a house carpenter. She was the eighth great-grandmother of Nancy Jane Blanchard (1929–2006), through her son Thomas Clough (born 1651).

Her surname and her origins are not known. Seven children of John and Jane were recorded at Salisbury between December 1642 and February 1656/57, four daughters and three sons, among them Thomas, born on 29 May 1651. Jane died at Salisbury on 16 January 1679/80. Seven years later, in January 1686/87, John married again.

Notes

Her name

David W. Hoyt’s The Old Families of Salisbury and Amesbury, Massachusetts calls her Jane and makes her John’s first wife. Salisbury’s register of births enters all seven children as children of John and “Jone” Clough, and one copy of the entry for her son Samuel gives her as “Joannah”.

Her death

Salisbury’s death records enter her as “Jone, w. John, sr., Jan. 16, 1679.” Hoyt gives 16 January 1679-80, the same day with the year written in both styles (Old Style and New Style datesW). A family chart compiled in 1994 gives 11 January 1679.
