Individual Details

Family search: John Tompkins, of Concord, Mass; came with Jones contingent to Fairfield, where he died, and his widow married William Heyden and removed to Eastchester, New York. He died so early that his will is not found; but on 7 Mar. 1660/1, John Wheeler and George Squire, as overseers to (the younger) John "Tomkins", sued William Hayden for 30 pounds for neglect in executing the will of John Tompkins. They won the suit, and Hayden was ordered to surrender the lands to (the son) John. Since William Hayden (of Windsor) sat on the jury which tried the case, it is obvious that a different man of the same name was the defendant. On 27 Dec 1687, William Hayden of Eastchester put it upon record that he had sold out of his possession land at Eastchester to his sons-in-law [stepsons] Nathaniel and John Tompkins. (Westchester Deeds.) Children, two recorded at Concord: Ruth born 1 Jun 1640. John born 25 Sep 1642; and Nathaniel, died at Eastchester 6 Sept. 1684. --from the History and genealogy of the families of Old Fairfield by Jacobus.
