Lydia Emaline Gore

m: James W. Devine (1841/1842-AFT 1920)

Children:

Notes:

Her name appears in records as Lydia E. Gore, Emaline Devine, and Lyddie Devine.
It took me a while to establish Emaline (Gore) Devine, wife of James W. Devine, as the same person as Lydia E. Gore, dau. of Joseph B. Gore. After exchanging information with Joyce Lock, I certainly believed that to be the most likely theory, since the birth dates and places matched so well. However, I had nothing to indicate that the middle initial, "E.", stood for Emaline, nor did I have any indication that Emaline (Gore) Devine ever used the name Lydia. I was for a very long time unable to locate the James Devine family in the 1880 census. Thanks to FamilySearch.com's on-line 1880 census, that changed in Dec 2003, where I found them in Cass Co., Nebraska, and where she appeared as "Lyddie Devine"! That was the piece I needed to accept Lydia E. Gore and Emaline Gore as the same person, and thus establish her parentage.

Shurtleff, M.D., Misc. Records 1633-1769, Boston: 1857 & 1968, Vol. 8, pg. 3 (page 1 of original Yarmouth Records)]. Of course, I cannot know if this is her or someone else by the same name. If it were her, she'd be fifty at the time of her marriage.

There was a S.A.R. star on the grave indicating that he was a revolutionary war veteran.

I am not sure which Revolutionary War service records refer to him. I suspect he may have been the one on the Brig Washington, who was captured. Records include:

Washington, certified & supplied by William Watson & Ephraim Spooner".

From Cutter 1:94:

Thomas Pope, immigrant ancestor, was born in 1608, died in Dartmouth, Mass., in Octobert 1683. He settled in Plymouth, Mass., where he was taxed on January 2, 1633, and again on January 2, 1634. On October 6, 1636, he received a grant of five acres of land "at the fishing point next Slowly field, and said Thomas be allowed to build." On June 7, 1637, he volunteered to go under "Mr. Prence," on an expedition against the Pequots. On August 29, 1640, he sold his property at the fishing point to John Bonham, and on November 20 of that year he was granted five acres "of meadowing in South Meadows toward Gavans Colebrook meadows." In August, 1634, he was among those men able to bear arms. He was chosen constable, June 4, 1645, and was on a jury in August, 1645. In 1646 he was at Yarmouth. On June 1, 1647, an action for slander was brought against him, confessed, authors and defendants were brought in equally guilty, and damages paid. In July, 1648, he was chosen surveyor of highways, and again on June 6, 1651. On July 26, 1652, and in 1656, he was "on an Enquest". In December 1663, he and Gyles Rickard were arrested "for breaking the King's peace by striking each other, and were fined three shillings and four pence." On February 7, 1664, and May 2, 1665, he was disputing with John Barnes in regard to a boundary line. He was made freeman in 1668. In 1673 he petitioned for a grant of land at Saconnett, now Little Compton, Rhode Island, but was unable to secure the grant. He was granted permission by the court to look for land, undisposed of, and he secured a large tract on the east side of the Acushnet river at Dartmouth, where he moved doubtless about 1674. In July, 1675, his son John, aged twenty-two, his daughter Susannah and her husband Ensign Jacob Mitchell, were killed by King Philip's Indians, "early in the morning as they were felleing on horseback to the garrison, whither the Mitchell children had been sent the afternoon before." The Dartmouth settlement was abandoned soon after this, because of the danger from the Indians, and no attempt seems to have been made for about three years to settle there again. On June 12, 1676, several indians who had been captured and sent in by Bradford and Church, were brought before the court; one of them, John-num, was accused of being concerned in the murder of Jacob Mitchell and his wife and John Pope, and was put to death. On July 13, 1677, other Indians were put into slavery as a punishment for the outrages committed at Dartmouth.
