Hugh March

(1618 - 12 March 1693)

Hugh March, born in 1618, sailed from Southampton, England, on the ship "Confidence" of London, 200 tons, John Gibson, master, the last of April, 1638. He was listed as a servant, aged 20, of Stephen Kent, aged 27, of Nether Wallop, Hampshire. He was likely an indentured apprentice. On landing in New England the Kents and March went to Newbury where there were already many Wiltshire and Hampshire families settled.
March was a carpenter and builder by trade in Newbury, and dealt extensively in boards and timber with several Exeter lumbermen as various lawsuits testify.
