The name of HOWARD is of Saxon origin and is one of the most ancient of all names. There was one Howard (Hereward) who was living in England during the reign of King Edward (957-993).

Sir John Howard was the grandfather of Sir Robert Howard (born in 1384) , who made the Howard name illustrious by his marriage in 1405 to Lady Margaret Mowbray (born in 1387 and died in 1425), whose line of descent was claimed from King Edward I, and through him, Philip, one-time King of France. Lady Margaret’s father was Thomas Mowbray, First Duke of Norfolk, England.

Bridgewater, Mass., was the first inland town in the Old Colony, and the Howard family played a leading part in its settlement and subsequent and growth. The family name at the date was spelled Hayward, the spelling now in use being adopted in 1700.

On April 19, 1894, the old Bridgewater Historical Society was organized. Its object is the "collection, preservation and publication of material which shall contribute to the history of the colonial township of Bridgewater." In 1900, a building was erected, in memory of the original proprietors and early settlers of Bridgewater, and stands upon land contiguous to the site of the first meeting house and burying place of the early proprietors, and within the limits of the homestead of John Howard, an original owner and was given to the society by Francis Edward Howard, one of his descendants.

The southerly end of the building is set apart as a Howard Alcove. All papers, books and relics to the Howard family that are, or may come into the possession of the Society, are to be keep in the alcove.

John Howard, at the age of fifteen, came from England with his brother George and settled in Duxbury. He lived with the family of Captain Miles Standish, who came from Shorely. Lancashire, England. Later, John and George, moved to Bridgewater, where John married Martha Howard, daughter of Thomas Howard, one of the original land proprietors of Bridgewater, who came in 1635 from Sandwich, County of Kent, England, on the ship

Hercules. With him came his five children and three brothers.

To this party is traced the ultimate ancestry of this branch of the Howard family, the first of the American line being Thomas Howard, born in the Colonies in 1643. He was a son of Thomas, the senior Howard of the Hercules party or a con of one of the three brothers.

Here is the lineage of Sir John Howard and Alice Tendring, who were married in 1383.

John Howard was born in 1365 at Wiggenhall, Norfolk, England. John died on November 17, 1436 at Stoke-near-Nayland, Suffolk, England and was buried after November 17, 1436 at Stoke-near-Nayland, Suffolk, England.

Alice Tendring was born in 1365 at Stoke-near-Nayland, Suffolk, England. Alice died on October 18, 1467 at Stoke-near-Nayland, Suffolk, England and was buried after that date at Stoke-near-Nayland, Suffolk, England.

From this union which took place in 1383 and our records do not show just where in England that it took place, was Sir Robert Howard, who was born in 1384 at Stoke-near-Nayland, Suffolk, England. Sir Robert Howard died in 1437. In 1405, he married Lady Margaret Mowbray. She was born about 1387 and died on July 8, 1425.

From this union three children were born as follows:

1.) John Howard, 1^st Duke of Norfolk (1420-October 22, 1485)

2.) Margaret Howard (1412)

3.) Catherine Howard (1414-after June 29, 1478)

John Howard (1420) was born in Tendring, Essex, England and died on October 22, 1485 at Bosworth, Leicestershire, England. He was buried on November 3, 1485 at Thetford, Norfolk, England. He married (1^st. wife) Catherine Moleyns in 1442. Catherine was born about 1424. She died on November 3, 1465 at Stoke Pogis, Bucks, England and was buried after that date at Stoke-near-Nayland, England. (2^nd. Wife) Margaret Chedworth, whom he married on February 20, 1467. She was born about 1440 and died in 1494. While married to Catherine Moleyns-Howard, Thomas Howard 2^nd Duke of Norfolk was born in 1443 at Stoke-near-Nayland, Sufford, England. He died on May 21, 1524 at Castle Farlingham, Norfolk, England and was buried on June 26, 1524 at Thitford Abbey, Norfolk, England.

Thomas Howard, 2^nd Duke of Norfolk married (1^st. wife) the Duchess Elizabeth Tylney on April 30, 1472. She was born about 1445 at Ashwellthorpe, Norfolk, England and died on April 4, 1497. He married (2^nd. wife) Agnes Tylney who was a cousin to his 1^st. wife. She was born about 1460 and died in 1544.

To the union of his 1^st. wife there were two children born. They were Lord Edmund Howard of Fladden Field, who was born about 1483 and died in 1539. Elizabeth Howard was born about 1485 and died on April 3, 1537.

Lord Edmund Howard was born at Tisbury, Wiltshire, England and he married Joyce Culpepper in about 1515. She was born before 1480 and died after 1515. To this union five children were born. They are were Catherine Howard, who was born about 1521 and died on February 13, 1542; Mary Howard was born after 1515; George Howard was born after 1515;

Henry Howard was born after 1515; Charles Howard was born after 1515.

Catherine Howard, who was born about 1521 at Lambeth, Surrey, England and died on February 13, 1542 in the Tower of London, England married King Henry VIII Tudor on July 28, 1540 at Hampton Court Palace, England. King Henry VIII was born on June 28, 1491 at the Palace, Greenwich, Kent, England. He died on January 28, 1547 at Whitehall, Westminster, Middlesex, England and was buried on February 16, 1547 at St. George, Windsor, Berkshire, England. Catherine Howard was a first cousin to Ann Boleyn, who also became a wife of King Henry VIII. Since all records were distroyed in a church fire in the 1500’s, there are no documents showing the continueing lineage until Robert Howard who was born in 1384. It was noted however that his grandfather was a Sir John Howard.
