English Ancestry: The Moger Family of Somersetshire. In an attempt to find the forebears of the two Hugh Moshers (varient spelling), the first coming to Boston in 1632 and soon settling in Maine, and the Hugh Mosher of this book, whose appearance in Rhode Island in 1660 is announced by a purchase of land, one is confronted by an enormous number of contradictions, of which none is supported by any evidence whatever. Some assumed that they were father and son; at least it would seem that they were close relatives because of the common first name.

 
The contradictory stories began to appear shortly after a notice was placed in the Albany "Advertiser" late in March 1836, and, so it is said, in papers in Washington and Quebec, to the effect that there was in England an unclaimed Mosher estate amounting to "32,000,000 million," which several days later were said to be in pounds. The first item had said that a search was being made for heirs of Hugh, John, and Daniel MOsher in this country.

 
A scramble ensued. People offered their services as agents, for a sum, about every twenty years for the next century, conventions were held, agents appointed, and final reports issued. Only the agents gained from the "phantom fortune."

 
Finally, in 1982, the late Ira K. Haywood and his wife Constance Burgess (Mosher) employed a competent researcher in England to look into the records in Cucklington, Somersetshire, from where Charles Edward Banks said in his Biographical Dictionary of "The English Immigrants to New England 1620-50", that Hugh Mosier of Cucklington, Sommersetshire, had sailed on the James and lived in Portland, Maine and Newport and Portsmouth, Rhode Island (confusing him with a later Hugh Mosher of this book).

 
The searcher, Mr. M.T. Medleycott, quickly found records in Cucklington and in Wincanton, the nearest town to Cucklington, at this time often called Wincalton (transcripts of records omitted). Mr Medleycott abstracted the wills of Hugh and Margaret Moger, proved in the Perogative Court of Canterbury: Hugh Moger, gentlemen, of Wincanton, 1657 folio 228. It was dated 9 July 1656 and proved 30 June 1657 by Margaret MOger, one of the executors.

 
The will is quite compatible with the idea that Hugh, Sr., was the father of the Hugh who left England in 1632 and lived in Main: (1) Hugh, Jr., was baptized in 1609, so 23 years old when Hugh Mosier went to America in 1632. (2) Hugh, Jr., was so far from Wincanton in 1656 that he was given five years to return to claim his land in Stoke Trister. (2) The land in Stoke Trister may have been what, after being passed from one generation to another, became a fortune of "32,000,000 million" in 204 years.

 
When the widow Margaret, her son Hugh, and others, were sued by William Talbot 28 February 1656/7 (Chancery Depositions, Public Records Office, London, C21/T36/5), two of the witnesses to the will said that they knew only Talbot and Margaret MOger among the defendants, presumably because Hugh Moger had been long gone. Hugh's will suggests also the identity of Hugh MOsher who purchased land from the Indians in Westerly, Rhode Island in 1660 - the subject of this book. Hugh, Sr., selected his namesakes for special bequests. There were two: Hugh, son of son John, who had not reached the age of fourteen, so whould have been too young in 1660, and Hugh, son of Hugh, Sr.'s brother Nicholas, presumably considerably older. Mr. Medleycott found no records of Nicholas other than his baptism in 1596 and his mention in the will. He would fit admirably as the father of Hugh of Rhode Island, who gave the name Nicholas to his firstborn. Nicholas and his family probably went to Rhode Island before 1660, for Hugh's sister Mary married John Maxson of Portsmouth, Rhode Island about 1665, and on 24 October 1677 John Maxson was excused from jury duty because his wife and mother-in-law were both ill (austin, Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island). The mother-in-law was probably the Lydia Mosher who was a member of the Tiverton Baptist Church in 1680 when Hugh was pastor (Arnold, Vital Record of Rhode Island, 8:507).

 
Nicholas probably had sons John and Daniel, too, for the notice of the "fortune" in 1836 mentioned descendants of Hugh, John, and Daniel Mosher. Tradition is that Daniel and all his family, and John, single, were massacred by the Indians, leaving descendants of Hugh the only claiments to the "fortune." Hugh may have been remembering them when he named two later sons Daniel and John.

 
Nicholas, John, or Daniel may have been the ___ Mosier on Manussing Island in Rye, New York, who, as a recent settler, swore allegiance to Charles II of England 26 July 1662. A facsimile of the document appears in Baird's History of Rye, pp. 22, 23.

 
When Margaret, widow of Hugh Moger of Wincanton, made her will (Perogative Court of Canterbury, 1658, folio 718), dated 22 July 1658, proved 6 December 1658, she added more names: Ann, wife of son John; their children Margaret, Hugh, and John; Margaret Moger, daughter of son Hugh (Mildred (Mosher) & Laura (McGaffey) Clarenbach Chamberlain, Descendants of Hugh Mosher and Rebecca Maxson through Seven Generations (Warick, RI: self published, 1980).)

Biography: __ ___ ____ _______________, _______________, _______________, _______________; The following is excerpted from: "Descendants of Hugh Mosher and Rebecca Maxson through Seven Generations" by Mildred (Mosher) Chamberlain and Laura (McGaffey) Clarenbach.

 
This Hugh Mosher first appears in RI records with his purchase 29 June 1660, of land in Westerly. Evidence is convincing that he was a son of Nicholas, son of Hugh Moger of Cucklington and Wincanton, Somersetshire, England. He had a sister Mary, who married his wife's brother John Maxson, according to many genealogists, none of whom cites the proof. It that is correct, Hugh's mother was living with the Maxsons on 24 Oct. 1677, when John Maxson was excused from jury duty because both his wife and his mother-in-law were ill. The mother-in-law in this instance had to be his wife's mother, rather than his stepmother because he had a stepfather John Harndell. This mother-in-law may have been the Lydia Mosher whose name precedes Rebecca Mosher (wife of Hugh) in the membership list of the Tiverton Baptist Church in 1680 for no other Lydia Mosher appears in the family until about 1695.

 
Hugh probably lived for a time in Westerly, but in 1669 he was admitted freeman of Portsmouth. Town records show him there as early as 668, and 1670, 1673, 1676, and 1677. In 1680 he was pastor of the Tiverton Baptist Chruch which served Tiverton and Little Compton RI and Dartmouth MA. John Harndell's will placed him in Portsmouth in 1685. Before 16 April 1690 he had moved to Dartmouth, for on that day John Walley of Bristol Co. wrote to Thomas Hinckley, governor of Plymouth Colony, "He is a substantial man ... whatsoever Mosier doth, he doth publicly, and makes account he can in law answer anything he hath said or done." Deeds show him a resifent of Dartmouth as late as 1708, one in 1707 giving his occupation as blacksmith. A deed of Dartmouth land on 1 March 1709 gives Newport as his residence. He made his will there on 12 Oct. 1709, and it was proved in Bristol Co., MA. He named his wife Sarah, his sons James, John, Nicholas, Joseph and Daniel; grandson Hugh, son of Nicholas; grandsons named Mosher; other grandsons; and mentioned daughters without nameing htem. They are found in his deeds of land to them (Mosher / Adams Family Genealogy; JOhn C. Mosher; 2004; http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com.)
