Phibrick and Philbrook Families.
THOMAS PHILBRICK,* or PHILBROOK is supposed to have come from England
in 1630, or not much later, and settled in Watertown, Mass. He is said
to have been a mariner in early life, and to have been master of a vessel
before he emigrated from Lincolnshire in England. There is no doubt that
he and his family were settled in Watertown in 1636. Bond says "His
homestead was on the N. W. comer of Belmont and Lexington Streets. Probably
he was of that company that came over in 1630."History of Watertown,
p.909.
In 1639, the second summer after the settlement of Hampton, N. H., JOHN
(son of Thomas) PHILBRICK moved to Hampton, and his younger brother, Thomas,
soon followed him. We are told that "The first settlers of Hampton
were attracted to the place by the fishing, the fowling, the best of clams,
and the salt marshes, almost ready for the scythe." In 1645-6, Thomas
Philbrick, Sen., a grantee of eight lots, sold
his estate in Watertown to Isaac Stearns, and in 1650 or '51 he had removed
to Hampton, where his elder sons lived. In 1661 he bought of John Moulton,
land joining the farms of his son James and his son in law, John Cass.
His wife, Elizabeth, died, 12 mo. 19, 1663, and in March, 1664, when he
made his will, he calls himself "very aged." He d. in 1667.
