Biography

Isaac Cushman is descended from the Mayflower Pilgrim Family, through mother Mary Allerton.

Plymouth Colony Vital Records for the last months of 1647 (i.e., 1647/8) show that "Isaak Cushman the sonn of the Elder Cushman was born on the 8th of febrewary."[1]

According to the 1918 article "A Grandson of Elder Thomas Cushman and Some of His Descendants," Rev. Isaac Cushman was a son of Elder Thomas Cushman and Mary Allerton, born at Plymouth (Plymouth Colony) on 8 February 1648/9 and died at Plympton, Massachusetts, on 21 October 1732. He was for many years pastor of the church at Plympton.[2]

The 1918 article indicated that he married Rebecca Rickard, who was born about 1654 and died at Plympton on 3 September 1727, in her 73rd year. They had six children.[2] Later research determined that his wife was not Rebecca Rickard, but in fact was Rebecca Harlow.[3]

He died on October 21, 1732. [2][4]

Probate

His will is dated 25 October 1727 and proved on 4 December 1732 in Plymouth. He mentions his children, Isaac, Ichabod, Rebecha Mitchel, Mary Waterman, decd., Sarah Briant, decd., Fear Sturtevant, his son-in-law Robert Waterman, and his grandson Nathaniel Cushman.[5]

His inventory was taken on 2 November 1732 in Plimpton.[6]
