Notes |
- It is my understanding that Nathan Landon married Hannah Bishop ca. 1692-95. They had a son, James, who died while young, at Southold.
Daniel's son, James, was born 29 Mar 1685, at Taunton, Bristol Co. MA. He was sent to Southold, to be raised by his uncle, Nathan, after Daniel (Daniel Lander), along with Thomas Pound and others, was arrested in 1689 for piracy, found guilty, and hanged at Boston. In 1698, James Landon, age 13, was living in the household of Nathan Landon at Southold. James Landon married Mary Vail at Southold in May 1707, a bit too early to have been a son of Nathan. There is speculation that Daniel's wife, Ann, was Ann Lobdell, daughter of Isaac Lobdell and Martha Ward. My connection to all this is through my Moore ancester, Samuel Moore, who married Rachel Landon, the daughter of James and Mary Landon, at Litchfield, CT, 9 Oct 1735.
See the New England Historical & Genealogical Register for more information about the above.
