Daniel was a surveyor, an innkeeper and a large landed proprietor. He kept a public house with and without a license and at times was in court because of "disturbances" which occured at his establishment. He was in Kittery in 1652 when he signed the submission to Massachusetts. He received his lot by a town grant in 1654(1) and was a constable of Kittery 10 Dec. 1662, a Sergeant in 1659 and a grandjuryman in 1659 and 1678. On 14 July 1683 he gave his sons Thomas and James a tract of land in Berwick where he was living and on 19 March 1696/7 he deeded land to his sons William and Moses and on 21 Aug. 1701 to his son Daniel.

He was a selectman 13 Apr. 1697(2) and signed a Berwick petition 4 Sept. 1697(3), a petition to the general court of Boston 10 Dec. 1662 for aid in discharging the duties of his office in the face of local opposition to that government(4), and a petition to Oliver Cromwell in 1657. He was also one of the founders of the church in South Berwick in 1702. In Dec. 1711 he deeded the homestead to his son Thomas for support.

Born in April 1620 in Yoxford, Suffolk, England, Daniel's life was a tapestry of various roles and responsibilities that shaped the early American colonial experience.

Daniel arrived in Kittery around 1652, a time when the area was evolving from a rugged wilderness into a structured settlement. He quickly established himself as a man of many talents and trades. Not only was he a surveyor, mapping out the lands that would form the backbone of the community, but he also became an innkeeper, providing a gathering place for the settlers and travelers. His inn was more than just a place of rest; it was a hub of social and political activity, albeit sometimes the center of "disturbances" that brought him into the local court's attention.

In his personal life, Daniel was first married to Margaret Spencer, daughter of Thomas and Patience (Chadbourne) Spencer, linking him to some of the area's most influential families. Margaret, a descendant of William Chadbourne, brought with her a connection to the early settlers who played a pivotal role in developing South Berwick. Together, Daniel and Margaret had a large family, with children who continued to contribute to the community's growth. Their children, Daniel, James, Thomas, William, Moses, Patience, Elizabeth, and Sarah, each wove their threads into the fabric of Kittery's history.

After Margaret's passing, Daniel married Sarah Sanders, the widow of Peter Turbet, further extending his family and influence. Professionally, Daniel was a man of the community. He served as a town commissioner, constable, sergeant, and on various juries, including a coroner's and grand jury. His involvement in local governance was a testament to his commitment to the community's welfare and order.

Daniel's contributions to the area were not limited to his professional roles. He was one of the founders of the church in South Berwick in 1702, marking his influence in the spiritual life of the community. His role in the church's establishment underscored the importance of faith and communal gathering in the early colonial period.

As a large landed proprietor, Daniel played a significant role in shaping the physical landscape of South Berwick. He received his initial land grant in 1654 and, over the years, acquired more, which he eventually distributed among his sons, ensuring his legacy would continue through his family.

In his later years, Daniel deeded the homestead to his son Thomas, ensuring his and his wife's care. He passed away before March 16, 1713, in Kittery, leaving behind a legacy as a foundational figure in the early American colonial narrative. His burial in South Berwick, York County, Maine, marked the end of an era for one of the area's most influential pioneers.

Daniel married SPENCER, Margaret in Jan 1643 in Kittery, York, Maine, USA. Margaret (daughter of SPENCER, Thomas and CHADBOURNE, Patience, daughter of SPENCER, Thomas and CHADBOURNE, Patience) was born in 1633 in Berwick, York, Maine, USA; died on 15 Dec 1681 in Kittery, York, Maine, USA; was buried in South Berwick, York, Maine, USA.

Notes:

Thomas Spencer, born around 1596 in England. His exact parentage and siblings are uncertain, and DNA testing has disproven previous beliefs about his lineage.

Thomas married Patience Chadbourne, daughter of William Chadbourne, likely in England. The couple's first child is estimated to have been born around 1630. Thomas was part of a group of adventurers who sailed on the barque "Warwick" in 1630, aiming to establish a settlement, trade with Native Americans, and obtain lumber. They settled around the Piscataqua and Newichawannock rivers. Thomas's wife, Patience, probably joined him the following year.

In 1633, Thomas returned to England and came back to the colonies on the "Pied Cow" in 1634, bringing supplies, more men, and materials for two mills. He initially settled at the falls of Asbenbedick and later inherited a large house and half of a mill at "Great Works" from his father-in-law. In 1650, Thomas purchased a tract of land called Quamphegan from the Sagamore of Newichewanacke, Mr. Rowles, and sold it to Thomas Broughton of Massachusetts.

Thomas was a planter and timber harvester, floating timber down the river and sawing it at his mill. He also became a tavern keeper. In 1652, he signed the official document submitting to Massachusetts' governance. However, in 1659, he was disenfranchised for entertaining Quakers, indicating possible Quaker sympathies.

Thomas's brother-in-law, Humphrey Chadbourne, expressed concern for Patience in his will, suggesting she might need support. Thomas died on December 15, 1681, in Berwick, York, Massachusetts Bay Colony. His will, dated June 2, 1679, detailed the distribution of his estate, including his dwelling house and lands to his eldest son William, and other properties to his wife Patience for distribution among their children.

---------

Thomas arrived at Piscataqua in July 1630 on the barque Warwick (TMS), returned to England in 1633, and returned to the colonies on the Pied Cow in 1634.

Thomas was a planter, lumberman, and tavernkeeper. Pope's Pioneers of Maine & New Hampshire says that Thomas was a proprietor of Cambridge MA in 1633, a freeman in 1634 who removed to Kittery. Patience and Thomas lived first at Strawbery Bank (Portsmouth), then on 6 Mar 1636/7 were called residents of "Piscataqua" (Kittery Point), and finally of Newichawannock (S Berwick).

Thomas was disenfranchised for entertaining Quakers in 1659 (LND, 652). Evidence that Thomas and Patience may have been Quakers is seen in the courts 7 July 1663 when they were presented for "neglecting to come to the publique meeteing on the Lords day to heare the word preached for about the space of 3 Moenths" (MPC II:139). They were presented again for the same offense on 6 July 1675 (ibid, II:306). In a long list of "those persons yt entertayned the Quakers, with the answers given in by them respectively" we find: "That Thomas Spencer pay as a fine to ye country for his entertayning the Quakers the somme of five pounds, & be disfranchised" (The Records of the Colony of the Massachusetts Bay in New England, Vol 4, part 1, p 407). Edward Wharton piloted a vessel that carried a group of Quakers up the coast, and seven people were fined varying sums and/or disenfranchised (lost the right to vote) by the Massachusetts Bay government, the only entity which could disenfranchise a freeman. Thomas Spencer obviously answered their questions in sympathy with the Quakers, defied the government, and was cast out as a result. Because we don't have copies of his answers to the Court's questions, we don't know how steadfastly he supported the Quakers, but he clearly satisfied the Court that he was in sympathy with them or they would not have taken action against him. They did not take action against James Rawlings, for instance, whom they found to be "more innocent and ingenious then the rest."

Thomas married CHADBOURNE, Patience after 1629. Patience (daughter of CHADBOURNE, William and SPARRY, Elizabeth) was born on 8 Nov 1612 in Tamworth, Staffordshire, England; was christened on 8 Nov 1612; died on 7 Nov 1683 in South Berwick, York, Maine, USA; was buried in South Berwick, York, Maine, USA.
