About this date many families, who brought much wealth, came to New England. The cause of this emigration would appear to arise from the troublesome times in England. Charles I, became king in 1625. Then came the long Parliament, and the Civil War began late in 1642. Charles I, was condemned and executed in London, 30 January 1649. There is no doubt but that our line at the time of Charles Jr., belonged to the Parliament side and were strong supporters of the Protestant faith, and this line of the Hoar family would probably never have had to be recorded if Joanne and her son John had remained in England.

He married Joanna Hincksman (Henchman), ab 1612 in England, born ab 1600 in Glouchester, England, died Dec 20, 1661 in Braintree, Norfolk, Mass, buried Dec 23, 1661 in Old Quincy Cemetry, Braintree, Mass.

"Joanna (Joane in will) the widow of the second Charles, died in Braintree, Sunday, Dec. 20, 1661. The meaning of the name (grace of the Lord) seems very happily merited. She was buried in the old Quincy cemetery with her son Leonard and his wife and daughter." -- Alfred Hoar Family

Third Generation

John Hoar, (2.Charles², 1.Charles¹) born 1622 in Glouchester, England, died Apr 02, 1704 in Mass. "John Hoare, the first in our line in this country, first settled in Scituata, Mass., in 1643, and bore arms the same year. He was a lawyer, and noted "for his bold, independent mind and action." He had a farm on the west of litttle Masquashart Pond. While here he appears to have been engaged in the business of the town, drafting deeds, bonds, &c..Lived in Scituate Mass 1643-1655. He settled in about 1660 in Concord Mass. He continued the practice of the law, except at one time he was prohibited from practicing, except his own cases, for not attending church, and speaking slightingly of one of the ministers.

"John, son of Charles and Joanna, b. about 1623, settled at Scituate; atba. 1643; Juryman, 1646; prop. frm. 5 June, 1651. Lawyer, farmer, propr. Sold land in 1659, and rem. to Concord. Remonstrated to the Court about 1665, that he could not obtain justice for his bro.'s interests which he was representing; and was disbarred temporarily from pleading any case except his own. He rendered ever memorable service in protection of the praying lndians, and in obtaining the deliverance of captives held by hostile Indians in 1675, in consideration of which he recd. a grant of land in 1682.

He took great interest in the welfare of the Indians, and built a house on his place for the Christian Indians. They at the time of King Philip's war were under his care by order of the general court.
"Capt. Samuel Mosely with 103 men took these Christian Indians (the Nashobahs) away from Mr. Hoare's place, insulted Mr. Hoare and plundered the poor, helpless Indians of all they had, and sent them, 58 in number, (12 only able-bodied men) to Boston under guard of some 20 rough and brutal soldiers. Afterwards they were sent to Deer Island.

On "Feb. 10, 1676, Mrs. Mary Rowlandson and child, both wounded, wife of the minister at Lancester, Mass., were taken prisoners at that place. Efforts were made to secure her release, but without success, until Mr. Hoare by the desire of her husband made the attempt. Under date of April 28, 1676, he left Lancester with two guides, Nepphonet and Peter Tatatiquinea and met the hostile Indians at Wachusett Lake (now in Princeton, Mass.) May 2, 1676. He took £20 and some goods and secured her release, although King Philip refused his consent. They returned to Lancester and she went to Boston May 7th. It is said no other person in the colony could have secured her release."

--SOURCE: Alfred Hoar Family--

John Hoar, at the request of the colonial authorities, followed the Indian band far into the wilderness, and after great hardship and the exercise of great ingenuity, recovered by ransom Mrs. Rowlandson, a lady captive from Lancaster. Her account of her ransom is published. The rock where she was redeemed is situated in (???), close by the base of Wachusett Mountain, and has been marked by the senator with a suitable inscription." --SOURCE: Worchester County—

The granite ledge known as Redemption Rock is the site of the famous release from captivity of Mary White Rowlandson. On its perpendicular face is inscribed: "Upon this rock May 2nd 1676 was made the agreement for the ransom of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson of Lancaster between the Indians and John Hoar of Concord. King Philip was with the Indians but refused his consent." Mary White Rowlandson (1637-1711) told her own story in "The Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson," which first appeared in public in 1679, three years after her capture and release. It would become a 17th-century bestseller on both sides of the Atlantic with 15 editions published before 1800. According to Neal Salisbury, who re-published Mary's narrative in 1997 as "The Sovereignty and Goodness of God," in 1653, Lancaster was a frontier town in the "wild, wild west" of Massachusetts. The Rock southeast of Wachusett Lake was a point of contact between two civilizations. Many of New England's Native American tribes, angered by the spread of colonial settlements, the conversion of forests into farmland, and perceived injustices at the hands of colonists, joined the Wampanoag sachem Metacom (called Philip by the English) in an attempt to drive the colonists from their new homelands, in the process destroying hunting grounds, winter camps, and settlements. Mary White Rowlandson's narrative begins on February 10, 1676, when 400 Nipmucs, Narragansetts, and Wampanoags attacked Lancaster "about sun-rising." Mary, her three children, and twenty other captives were taken into "the vast and desolate wilderness, I knew not whither." After many "removes" (shifts of locations), they ultimately rendezvoused with King Philip near the present day New Hampshire-Vermont border north of Northfield, MA. Her bible was a source of comfort throughout, and her sewing skills, quickly discovered, placed her in good favor; for a shilling, she was asked to make a shirt for King Philip. Mary and her captors returned by late April 1676. John Hoar of Concord, who had instructed and protected a group of "praying Indians," went to negotiate her release at the flat-topped outcrop overlooking a meadow where the Native Americans had camped. She writes, "Philip who was in the company came up and took me by the hand and said, 'Two weeks more and you shall be Mistress again.'" Later, a ransom was raised "by some Boston gentlemen." She traveled to Boston with John Hoar to be reunited with her husband, son, and eldest daughter (the youngest had died from wounds eight days after the raid). This historic site was acquired in 1889 by Senator George F. Hoar, one of the founders and first president of The Trustees. It was donated to The Trustees in 1952 by the Senator's descendants, John Hoar and John Hoar, Jr.

To the Hono'rd Generall Court Now Assembled
In Boston May 24th, 1682.
The Humble Petition of John Hoare -
Humbly Sheweth that whereas in the yeare 1665 yo'r Poor Petitioner was comitted to Prison forced to find suretyies for his good behavior and also fyned fivety pound for doing such things as I humbly conceived were but my duty and also prohibited from pleading any bodies cause but my owne; Now yo'r poor Petitioner hath a long time layne under the smart of these sufferings and hath often moved for a release but such hath bene the unhappyness of yo'r Poor Suppliant that he hath not yet obtained such a good day the want whereof hath bene greatly prejuditiall to my Brother Mr. Daniel Hoare his Estate and so my owne and also unto my name and famyly. The perticulars in my petition then exhibited to the Honor'd Generall Court wear such as my Brother Mr. Henery Flint of Brantrey & Mr. Edmond Browne of Sudbury did judge would not give any ofence. And in that hope I did present it.
I Humbly now present to this Hon'rd Court that in the time of the warr I tooke the charge of about sixty Indians belonging to Nashoby by the order of Majo'r Willerd, Majo'r Gookin, Mr. Elliot, and the select men of Concord. I built them a fort that cost mee of my own estate fourty pounds and went with my teame in Hazard of my life to save and bring home there Corne and also borrowed Rey and hors for them to plant and sow which I was forced to pay for myself. I also made several Journeys to Lancaster and to the Counsell and two Journies to the Indians to redeme Mrs. Rowlinson and Good wife Kettle with two horses and provisions and gave the sagamores considerably of my owne estate above whatever I received of the Countrey and by the favor of god obtained of them that they would fight noe more but in ther owne defence; Seth Perry also had several things of mee to give the Indians that hee might escape with his life.
My sonn Daniel Hoare also was Indicted for his life yet by divine providence was spared, yet was sentence to pay five pounds to the Indians and five pounds to the Countery tho' as I humbly Conceive he had not broken any Law.
My Humble Supplication on all accounts to this Hon'rd Court is that I might be sett att Liberty from my sentence and may enjoy the liberty of an English man, and alsto that the Cor't would pleas to remitt my son Daniel's sentence. And if they please to grant me some small parcel of Land to comfort my wife with respect unto all her suffereings by my disbursements fro the Countrey as above recited.
And yo'r Petitioner shall give thanks to the Lord and you
And shall ever Pray &c
JOHN HOARE.--"

He was released from his bonds and restraint from pleading in the courts. Furthermore, the magistrates recommended "that considering his publike service & Costs in securing the Nashoby Indians at his house in Concord by order of this Court's Committee for several months in time of said warr, and for his adventuring his life to goe up to the Indians in the time of the warr the successe whereof was the Redeeming of some Captives particulary Mrs. Rowlandson", some 200 acres of land would be granted his family. But the deputies in the General Court disagreed and answered:

" In ans'r to the Petition of John Hoare, and on further consideration thereof the Court judge meet for his service donne for the publick etc. to grant to the wife and children of the said John Hoare two hundred acres of land in any common lands from former grants, and not hindering a plantation."
(Mass. Records, v. V, p. 359)

Samuel Sewall noted in his diary for 8 Nov. 1690, "Jn'o Hoar comes into the Lobby and saies he comes from the Lord, by the Lord, to speak for the Lord: Complains that Sins as bad as Sodom's found here."

John did not leave a will and his probate shows that his son Daniel had been taking care of John and Alice since 1683. (Middlesex Probate, #11589).

He married Alice Lisle, born ab 1628, (daughter of Sir John Lord Lisle and Lady Alicia ______.) died June 05, 1696 in Concord, Mass. Alice: She was the daughter of Sir John Lord Lisle, President of the High Court of Justice, Lord commissioner of the great seal, who drew the indictment and death sentence of King Charles1, He was murdered in Lusanne, Switzerland Aug 11, 1664. Alice’s mother Alice Beckonshaw Lisle was beheaded by brutal judgment of Jeffries in 1685. The Story of her arrest on a chargeof treason for sheltering rebels her condemnation to be burned alive and her execution by beheading, with all the cruel, gastly,details, forms a disgraceful page in English History. Information from www.ifthompson.com/

John and Alice had 3 children Elizabeth, Mary and Daniel

"Alice Hoar ye wife of Mr Jno Hoar her husband dyed June ye 5th day 1696"      -- Concord Vital Records--

Although I have seen various sites stating that Alice was sister to Bridget Lisle and daughter John Lisle and Lady (Dame) Alice Beckonshaw some say she is not. I have included the History of this family although it appears to be unknown at this time.

Abiel PECK, who took up the Peck grant, was a descendant of Joseph PECK, who emigrated fron England to Attleboro, Mass., in 1638. Abiel PECK came to Cumberland, Nova Scotia at the time of the revolution and shortly afterwards moved to Shebody. His grant included nearly six thousand acres, a large part of it marsh land as good as any along the river. He was drowned while attempting to cross the bay from Dorchester to his own place in an open boat. Most of the grant was divided among his eleven children; the only part that went outside the family was sold to David HOAR of Colchester, Nova Scotia.
