The house in the photograph above is the Swett-Ilsley House in Newbury, Massachusetts,
originally built about 1670 by Stephen Swett, the father of Hannah Swett, John Badger's
second wife.

6. GILES BADGER (John, John, Humphrey?, ------, Thomas), immigrant to New England,
is supposed to be identical with Giles, the son of John [and Anne (Greenwaye?)] Badger of
Wotton, parish of St. Mary de Lode in the city of Gloucester, Co. Gloucester, England,
where Giles was probably born, perhaps about 1610. ...
     The will of John Badger of Wotton was proved in January 1638/9 and his son Giles was
to receive a dwelling house in Tayton, Gloucestershire.  Tayton is a parish about five miles
west of Gloucester.  It can be presumed that Giles and his brothers Richard and Nathaniel
made use of their inheritance to book passage to New England, no doubt sailing in the
spring of 1639.
     Very little is known about immigration to the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1639, there
being only record of three ships, the Jonathan, the Beaver, and the Mary Rose.  Only
a (partial?) list for the Jonathan survives, but the sailing dates are not known.  She
supposedly sailed from Southampton with passengers from Hampshire.  The Beaver, of
London, arrived 22 June with passengers unnamed.  It is also unknown when the Mary 
Rose of Bristol sailed, but she arrived in Boston with 120 passengers (Charles Edward
Banks, The Planters of the Commonwealth [Boston 1930], 201 f.).
     The Badgers' ship probably arrived in Boston and they soon headed north to
Newbury.  As shown above, Giles purchased land in Newbury on 12 July 1639, that
date being the earliest record of him there or anywhere in this country, and a date
certainly comfortable with an immigration to New England in the spring of that year.
With his brothers Richard and Nathaniel, Giles is on a list of 91 freeholders dated 12
March 1641/2, concerning certain rights on the Newbury town commons (Currier,
Hist. Newbury 53-55).  This is the earliest record of Giles's brothers in New England,
although they doubtless came with him from England.
     It was about this time, 1642, that Giles married Elizabeth Greenleaf, no doubt in
Newbury.  She was baptized 16 Jan. 1621/2 in the parish of St. Margaret, Ipswich,
Co. Suffolk, England, and died, probably in Newbury, after 10 March 1690/1 when
she was mentioned in her son John's will, the daughter of Capt. Edmund and Sarah
(Moore) Greenleaf.  Elizabeth married (2) Richard Browne in Newbury on 10 Feb.
1647/8 (Newbury VR 2:25; Essex Co. Probate # 1234; William S. Appleton,
"The Greenleaf Ancestry" (NEHGR 38 [1884] 299f); Dorothy Greenleaf Boynton,
"Sara, First Wife of Edmund Greenleaf (1588-1663)" (NEHGR 122 [1968] 28-36.
     On 20 Oct. 1642, Edmund Greenleafe of Newbury deeded "in parte of his
portion with his daughter unto Gyles Badger" his house and lot of two acres
which he purchased for eight pounds from Richard Swayne.  About this time
Giles also bought four acres of upland and four acres of marsh from John
Baker (Newbury Town Recs., # 13, p. 47).
          The names of Giles and his brothers are on a list of 91 Newbury
freeholders dated 7 Dec. 1642.  This list was evidently compiled in anticipation of
a move by Newbury settlers inland three or four miles to a place along the
Merrimack River where they could find a new supply of arable land.  A strong
minority protested the move and together with other problems, it took four years
to complete the move.  Four-acre house lots in the "New towne" settlement at the
Merrimack were assigned as early as 1645 and were made in exchange for land
which had previously been granted at Parker River.  Giles Badger was assigned
Lot 63 and received "a house lott of foure akers at the new towne joyneing to
Fish street, he [having] resigned up his house lott at the old towne, into the
towne's hands."  Fish Street is today State Street, Newburyport.  By 1 March
1651, the priviledge [sic] of Giles Bader [sic] -- then deceased -- was held by
Richard Browne (Currier, Hist. Newbury 82-90, 93; Newbury Town Recs.,
#13, pp. 50, 64).
     Giles Badger was granted by the town "an house lott of foure akers next
John Bond scituate in the old Towne" in trade for "eleven akers & a halfe of
divident land & four akers of divident land belonging formerly to Mr. Greenleafe"
(Newbury Town Recs., #13, p. 78).  This record -- unfortunately undated --
may indicate that Giles returned to the Parker settlement.  However, this thought
seems negated by his purchase on 31 March 1646 from Thomas Hale, "late of
Newbury," for thirty-five pounds, of "threescore Acres ... in Newbury between
the Land of Mr. Richard Dumer on the North, Richard Knight on the South the
hyeway [on the east and the] Merrimacke on the West" ("ibid.," missing
material about the highway boundary assumed).
     In the years 1644 and 1645 "Goodman Badger and his wife are found
mentioned in the Wenham church records.  They first attended services there
on 17 Nov. 1644, but for the next year they failed to produce letters of
recommendation from their former church in Newbury, failed to contribute
financially (because of "inability, losses, expenses to strangers and travelers in
receiving them, and takeing Goodman Allin's child"), and failed to attend
services regularly.  The differences were still unresolved when Goodman
Badger is last mentioned in the records on 18 Dec. 1645 (Robert G. Pope,
ed., The Notebook of the Reverend John Fiske, 1644-1675 Publications of
the Colonial Society of Massachusetts Vol. 47 Collections [Boston 1974],
13, 15, 22, 33-36, 38-40, 42).
     Since the first names of these Badgers are never revealed, it cannot be
known if Giles and Elizabeth are the particular couple.  Giles's brother Richard
 "was" of Wenham in July 1644 when he took the freeman's oath, but there is
no evidence he had a wife.  However, there also seems to be no evidence that
he did not have a wife.  Brother Nathaniel may have been married, but
information in his case also is likewise insuffficient [sic].  Charles Henry Pope,
"The Pioneers of Massachusetts [1900; reprinted Baltimore 1977] p. 27,
believed it was Giles who was mentioned in the Wenham church records, but
information is lacking which would place Giles in Newbury or Wenham at this
time and the identity of the Wenham couple has not been resolved.  No
Badgers at all are found mentioned in the published Wenham Town Records
1642-1706 (Salem 1930).  [The Editor would like to point out that whereas
there is no evidence to place Giles at Wenham, there is some evidence to
show that Richard was there in 1644.  That Pope thought it was Giles who
was at Wenham is no evidence at all.  The Editor now has in his possession an
interleaved copy of Pope's book which was presented to him by Mrs. F.R.
Dodge, FASG.  It contains manuscript addenda by Mrs. Dodge and her
mother, Mrs. Mary Lovering Holman, FASG, which is sometimes very
valuable for manuscript addenda inserted by these two ladies, but on this
point there is no addendum.]
     About 1646 Giles Badger supposedly was granted in Newbury a
four-acre lot of William Chandler (John J. Currier, "Ould Newbury" in
Historical and Biographical Sketches [Boston 1896], 150).  He died in
Newbury, probably in that part now Newburyport, on 17 July 1647
(Newbury VR 2:541, confirmed by original record in Newbury Town Hall,
although some accounts show other dates).  In his will dated 29 June 1647,
proved 28 Sept. 1647, Giles Badger of Newbury left two thirds of his estate
to his wife and the other third part "to be paid to my sonne when he is 18
yeares of age, the benefitt of it to be improved for bringing up untill he be 18
yeares of age."  If his wife remarried, then she and his son were to divide
equally the estate.  Giles appointed "my father Greenleff," David Pearce,
Henry Short and Richard Knight, to divide his estate and they took a detailed
inventory of it on 12 Sept. 1647, showing a value of 153.9.8 [pounds,
shillings, and pence].  After debts were paid, there remained a balance of 129
[pounds].  Of course, Elizabeth remarried, and so by a bond dated 27 March
1655, Richard Browne was to pay "his wife's son, John Bager," 34 [pounds]
at age eighteen, "besides the half of the land left by the latter's father"
(Probate Rec. of Essex Co., 1:78-80).
     By her second husband, Richard Browne, Elizabeth had five children.  He
died in Newbury on 23 or 26 April 1661 and she proved his undated will in
the Ipswich Court on 24 June 1661 ("ibid." 1:339-342).
Child:
    John, b. 30 June 1643, Newbury; d. there, probably in that
       part now Newburyport, 31 March 1691; m (1) in Charlestowne,
       16 June 1663, Elizabeth Hayden who d. in Newbury, 8 April 1669,
       dau. of James and Elizabeth Hayden; (2) in Newbury, 23 Feb.
       1670/1, Hannah[3] Swett, b. Newbury, 7 Oct. 1651, probably
       d. there, between 20 March 1690/1, and 22 April 1691, dau. of
       Stephen[2] (John[1]) and Hannah (Merrill) Swett.  Ten ch., b.
       Newbury 1664-1683.

Noted on 3 November 2012:     1.  The picture above depicts St. Mary the Virgin in Wotton-on-Edge, Gloucestershire, England, consecrated in 1283.  The area about is hilly land rising to a ledge of limestone to the east, called the "Edge." Although John Badger, son of John, was "of Wotton," he appears to have had all his children christened closer to or inside the city of Gloucester.  It appears that he was a leaseholder, not a freeholder, probably like most of the farmers in the Vale of the Severn.
     2.  The paragraph below about the father of Giles Badger was written by Roger D. Joslyn and published in The American  Genealogist (TAG), Volume 58, No. 2, page 91 et seq.  I will add the final portion concerning Giles Badger in the next few days, include a description of the life of his son John from other sources, and then resume with John Cogswell Badger's 1922 Supplement.

5.  JOHN BADGER (John, Humphrey?, -----, Thomas) of Wotton, parish of St. Mary de Lode, City
of Gloucester, Co. Gloucester, yeoman, the testator of 1637/8, was almost certainly the one baptized
in Churchdown, Co. Gloucester, on 20 April 1566.  Likewise, he was probably the John who married
in Churchdown, 23 Jan. 1597/8, Anne Greenwaye.  In his will of 22 March 1637/8 he named his wife
Anne.
Children:  first four baptized Churchdown, rest probably all in St. Mary de Lode:
         i.   John, bapt. 3 Dec. 1598; perhaps the John Badger of Upton St. Leonards,
                 Co. Gloucester, yeoman, the testator of 1643, who m. there 22 Jan. 1620/1,
                 Anne Webley, dau. of John Webley of Saintbridge, Co. Gloucester.  John's noncupative
                 will proved 9 Dec. 1643 was witnessed by Henry and Daniel Badger.  [Six children
                 were then listed.]
         ii.  Henry, bapt. (as Harry), 16 Nov. 1600; perhaps the Henry Badger of Matson who m.
                 Alice ----- and the Henry living 1654 who witnessed the will of (his brother) Daniel
                 Badger.  [Two children were then listed.]
         iii. Richard, bapt. 7 Jan. 1601/2.  By his father's will of 1637/8, he was to have the messuage
or tenement in Matson.  He almost certainly came to New England in 1639 with brothers Giles and Nathaniel with whom he was a freeholder in Newbury, Massachusetts Bay Colony, by 12 March
1641/2.  With them he moved inland to the Merrimack River settlement but by 1 March 1651 he
had sold his privilege there to "widdow Keyes" (John J. Currier, History of Newbury, Mass.
1635-1902 (Boston 1902), 54, 84, 88, 90, 94; Joshua Coffin, A Sketch of the History of
Newbury, Newburyport and West Newbury (1845, reprint ed. Hampton, N.H. 1977), 29;
Newbury Town Records, #13, p. 50).  He apparently left Newbury earlier, as he was of Wenham
when on 11 July 1644 he took the freeman's oath ("Records & Files of the Quarterly Courts of
Essex County, Mass., 1636-1686" (Salem 1911-1975), 1:68).  There is no further record of
Richard Badger in this country unless he is the "Goodman Badger" of Wenham in 1645 (see under
No. 6 Giles Badger, below).  [Here the Blogger moves the TAG Editor's comment into a separate
paragraph.]
     {The [TAG] Editor would like to point out that Richard is clearly placed in Wenham by the
freeman's oath in 1644.  Why is it reasonable to suppose that further references to Wenham to
"Goodman Badger" cannot refer to him?  As will presently be seen, all later references to any male
Badger in Wenham are presumed to refer to Giles, even though Giles seems to have been in
Newbury when he died soon after this time.  It seems to be true that "Goodman Badger" of
Wenham had a wife and no other record has been found to show that Richard was married.  On
the other hand Badger references appear to cease at Wenham when Giles has died.]
         iv. Thomas, bapt. 9 Sept. 1604; perhaps the Thomas who m. in Churchdown, 30 April 1634,
Elizabeth Theyer.  ...  [Three] possible children ....
         v.  Mary, bapt. 2(?) Sept. 1607, St. Mary de Lode; not named in her father's will of 1637/8.
6       vi. Giles, b. say ca. 1610.
         vii.  Nathaniel, b. say ca. 1612.  Like his brother Richard, he almost certainly left England with
his brother Giles in 1639, the three of them being freeholders of Newbury in New England by
12 March 1641/2.  On 10 May 1642, he and John Bishop purchased a house lot of five acres and
thirty acres of upland and marsh from Edmund Greenleaf of Newbury, gent., for 15 [pounds],
10 [shillings].  With his brothers, Nathaniel moved inland to the Merrimack River settlement where
he was assigned Lot 58 in the "new Towne."  Nathaniel sold his privilege here to Benjamin Rolfe
before 1 March 1651 (Currier, Hist. of Newbury 55, 84, 88, 94; Coffin, Newbury, Newburyport,
W. Newbury Hist. 292; Newbury Town Recs. # 13, pp. 45 g, 50, 71).  Nathaniel Badger returned
to England before 5 June 1651 , when the inventory of the estate of Richard Browne of Newbury
was taken, showing "Debts due from the deceased:  To Nathaniel Badger in England, 25 li. 5 s."
("Probate Records of Essex County, Mass., 1635-1681" [Salem 1916-1920], 1:342).  He no
doubt returned to England before his brother's death in 1646, for he left "some mony and goods"
with his brother Gyles Badger, probably when he left Newbury (Ipswich Deeds 4:61).  Nathaniel
had a wife Hannah, but no record of her has been found (Coffin op. cit. 294).  Nor has trace of
Nathaniel been found after he returned to England, certainly not in Gloucestershire.
         viii. Isabel, b. say ca. 1615, named in the will of her father's stepmother, Joan Badger, 1625;
unm. in 1637/8 when she was named in her father's will.
         ix. Daniel, b. say ca. 1617.  By his father's will he was to have the messuage or tenement in
Hucklecott.  Probably the Daniel Badger, of Tuffley, City of Gloucester, the testator of 1654,
yeoman, who had a wife Mary who survived him, as did these:  [Three] Children.

Noted on 2 November 2012:  The contribution of the eminent genealogist, Roger D. Joslyn, C.G., should be recognized before we pass far from Giles Badger.  In 1982, Joslyn published an article, "The English Ancestry of the Newbury Badgers," in "The American Genealogist" (TAG), in Volume 58, No. 1, page 1 (January) and No. 2, page 91 (April).  In the first article, he discussed his commission to do this research, the relevant American sources, and a transcription of the relevant English records he was sent by the County Archivist of the Gloucester County Record Office in England.  In the second article, he provided a genealogy of the ancestry of Giles Badger, as supported by the English records.  These articles are of great importance and can be found either in or through any genealogical or county library in the United States or can be purchased for $10 from TAG online at <americangenealogist.com>.  Under the headings below, I will provide some of the information provided by Mr. Joslyn, indicating by ellipsis (...) genealogical analysis not included.  Before the listing for Thomas Badgeworth (testator of 1544), I am inserting a photo of St. Lawrence Church in Barnwood, Gloucestershire in England.  Before the listing for son of Thomas, first name unknown, I have inserted a photograph of St. Mary de Lode in the City of Gloucester.  Before the listing for John grandson of Thomas, I have inserted a photograph of the interior of St. Mary de Lode, a Norman church perhaps reusing materials from a stone Saxon church.

BADGER GENEALOGY

1.  THOMAS BAGEWORTH the elder, of Barnwood, Co. Gloucester, the testator of 1544, was born say about 1470.  At the time he made his will he had a wife ALYS, at least two grandsons, and possible a daughter.
Children:
2       i.  ______, b. say ca. 1495.
         ii. Margaret?  Perhaps the Margaret Bagworth mentioned in the above Thomas's will.

2.  ----- BAGEWORTH/BADGER (Thomas) was born say about 1495, was presumably of the vicinity of the city of Gloucester, Co. Gloucester, and probably the father of both two two grandsons named in his father's will.  That he was not named in the will may indicate he died before it was made on 6 Oct. 1544.  There is no will or administration for him.
Children:
3        i.  Humphrey, b. ca. 1517-8?
         ii.  Thomas, b. say ca. 1525.  [Joslyn provides much additional information.]

3.  HUMPHREY BADGER (-----, Thomas) was perhaps born about 1517-8 if he was the 34-year-old "Humfrey" of Barnwood who testified in the 1551-1552 matrimonial case of Thomas Badger. ... It is significant that the residence of Humphrey and Giles --Wotton-- was also where John of Painswick's son John lived. ... John Badger of Wotton named four of his sons Thomas, Richard, Daniel and Giles, names occuring in the other Wotton Badger families. ...
Known children:
         i.  Humphrey, of Wotton, parish of St. Mary de Lode, City of Gloucester, Co. Gloucester, where he was bur. 21 Aug. 1628.
         ii.  Giles, of Wotton, husbandman, the testator of 1611.
Perhaps this child:
         iii.  Rose, living 1611; m. ----- Windowe.
Probably these other children:
         iv.  Thomas.
         v.   Richard.  Did he m. in St. Michael, Gloucester, 12 May 1557, Katherine Austen?
                 This couple may have been the parents or grandparents of Giles Badger of Westbury,
                 [whom Joslyn showed was not Giles of Newbury] as the latter had children Austen and                  Richard.
And perhaps:
4        vi.  John, b. say ca. 1540.

4.  JOHN BADGER (Humphrey?, -----, Thomas) of Painswick, Co. Gloucester, husbandman, the testator of 1618 was born say about 1540, no doubt in the vicinity of the city of Gloucester, and he was buried at Painswick, 7 April 1618. ... Assuming that there was just one John Badger in Churchdown at the time, he possibly married there (1) -----; (2) Joan Wever on 24 Jan 1576/7; (3) Margery -----, buried in Churchdown, 30 Dec. 1596; (4) Katherine Etkines in Churchdown, 31 Feb 1596/7 (sic), she being buried there 1 Nov. 1598; and shortly afterwards, (5) Joan ----- (Hodges?), who survived him and was the Painswick testatrix of 1625.
Children, baptized in Churchdown
probably by first wife
         i.   Joan, bapt. 13 Aug. 1564, not named in father's will, 1618.
5       ii.  John, bapt. 20 April 1566.
         iii. Margaret, bapt. 7 March 1567/8; living 22 March 1637/8 when named in will of
                  her brother John Badger; m. by 4 April 1618, John Port.
by Joan ----- (Hodges?)
         iv.  Robert, bapt. 29 Sept. 1599; m. -----, bur. with him in Painswick, 3 July 1621;
                  admin. of Robert's estate c[o]mmitted to his mother, Joan Badger, 7 July 1621.

Blogger's Notes:
1.  First of all is a new photo, a photograph of the 1863 church in the town of Franklin, Connecticut, the fourth church in the town, which was originally a part of the town of Norwich called the "West Farms."  This was the town to which Nathaniel Badger moved in 1715 and in which he signed a petition to the General Court of New Haven (the colonial legislature) to establish a "society" (a Congregational Church) separate from Norwich.  The legislature assented.  See the 1868 history at OpenLibrary.com, <http://www.archive.org/stream/celebrationofone00firs#page/24/mode/2up>.  According to that history, the Badgers lived north of the church, on the present road to Windham.
2.  Second, I skipped the section concerning Nathaniel Badger, # 34 in John Cogswell Badger's numbering, so I am inserting it at this point.
3.  Third, besides being a petitioner for the town of Franklin, Nathaniel Badger was also a petitioner and selectman for the town of Union in 1734.  His petition is on file in the Connecticut State Library in Hartford.
