Biography

Stephen Bachiler was born about 1561.[1] Various claims of his birth location and/or parentage are found in family files, but these have not been shown or proved.[2] He was buried at All Hallows Staining, London, 31 October 1656.[3]

Rev. Stephen Bachiler married four times

  1. [Anne?] ____, by 1590, a close relation of the Rev. John Bate (m. Dorcas _____), Bachiler's successor as vicar of Wherwell; she died after 1610 and before Bachiler married again.[4]
  2. Christian (_____) Weare, widow of Andover,[5] in Abbots Ann, Hampshire on 2 Mar 1623/4[6]; she died before Bachiler married again.
  3. Helena (_____) Mason, widow, in Abbots Ann, Hampshire on 26 Mar 1627. She was the widow of Reverend Thomas Mason and was reported aged 48 in 1631; she died by 3 May 1647.[7]
  4. Mary (_____) Beedle, widow, by 14 Feb 1648.[8] She was the widow of Robert Beedle. Bachiler's fourth marriage was not sustained as Mary came to cohabitate with George Rogers at Kittery, Maine.[9] Shortly before Bachiler was buried at England, she petitioned for divorce claiming he had married again.[10] There is no evidence that he remarried.

Some family associations.

In 1614, Rev. Stephen's Bachiler's son, Stephen, was said to have been a cousin of either[11] Rev. John Bate (Bachiler's successor at Wherwell), or Bate's son. This establishes the notion that a close family association existed between the Bate and Bachiler families. The precise connection hasn't been learned--Rev. Stephen Bachiler and Rev. John Bate may have been "brothers-in-law, or they married sisters."[12]

In correspondence of "14th 4th mo. 1673" (14 June 1673) to "Nath'l Bachiler, sen," Richard Dummer referred to "my cossen nathaniell bachelor of Hampton."[13][14] This relationship is explained in the context of Rev. Stephen Bachiler's third marriage (1627) to Helena (_____) Mason, the widow of Rev. Thomas Mason. By her first marriage, Helena was the mother of Jane Mason, who married by 1632 to Richard Dummer.[15] Thus Rev. Stephen Bachiler was the step-father-in-law of Richard Dummer.[16]

Both Rev. Stephen Bachiler and Richard Dummer (of Roxbury and Newbury) had "close connections in the activities of the the Plough Company."[17] Dummer had also resided at North Stoneham, Hampshire, "late in his life."[18] In turn then, Stephen Bachiler had resided at South Stoneham just prior to his migration to the colonies.[19]

Life at England, prior to migration

Bachiler entered college about 1581 and matriculated about 1586 at Oxford from St. John's College; he received his B.A. 3 February 1585/6.[20] He became the vicar of Wherwell, Hampshire, and remained at that parish until he was ejected in 1605.[21]

His struggle with controversy began in 1593 when Bachiler was reported to have "uttered in a sermon at Newbury very lewd speeches tending seditiously to the derogation of her Majesty's government."[22] His name is found among the "nearly a hundred ministers" who were "deprived of their benefices" between 1604 and 1609.[23] He was living in Wherwell in 1606[24] and seems to have remained there through 1614 after which he resided Newton Stacy from 1614-1631. He left there not long before his migration to New England.[25] In the more immediate period of his migration, Bachiler apparently resided shortly at South Stoneham, Hampshire, as on 23 June 1631 he made application from there to visit "sons and daughters" at Flushing, Holland, being accompanied by his wife.[26]

Emigration and life at New England.

Bachiler had become associated with merchants of London forming the Plough Company. The company had land grants at New England in the area of Saco. Immigrants were sent to the New World in support of the company settlement--some in 1631, aboard the Plough, and others the following year.[27] Stephen Bachiler and family members made the voyage in 1632, aboard the William & Francis. John Winthrop remarked [28]

[1632] June 5. The William and Francis, Mr. Thomas master, with about sixty passengers, whereof Mr. Welde and old Mr. Batchelor (being aged 71) were, with their families and many other honest men.”

Stephen Bachiler was made freeman 6 May 1635[29] He had initially settled at Lynn (then called "Saugus"). Bachiler there organized a church, where he remained about four years.

In 1995, Anderson wrote that "two stories of dubious validity are associated with [Bachiler's] stay at Lynn."[30] The first concerns was referred to as "a fictional diary" said to describe his appearance at some length. Anderson attributed the account to Obadiah Redpath (alias James R. Newhall)[31] The second account, from the same source and others relates a story of children baptized at Lynn, during which Bachiler supposedly passed over one, saying "I will baptize my own child first"--he was further said to be referring to Stephen Hussey, Bachiler's grand-child.[32] Anderson reports "There is ... no contemporary evidence for this event," further that the list of Bachiler's baptisms also do not support such events.

There were reportedly conflicts between Bachiler and some in the Lynn congregation and colony authorities, and by 1636, Bachiler was no longer ministering at Lynn.[33]

In the late 1630s, Stephen Bachiler led an effort to establish a particular settlement at present day Maine. According to a 1638 entry in John Winthrop’s journal[34]

Another plantation was now in hand at Mattakeese, six miles beyond Sandwich. The undertaker of this was one Mr. Batchellor, late pastor at Sagus (since called Lynn) being about seventy-six years of age; yet he walked thither on foot in a very hard season. He and his company, being all poor men, finding the difficulty, and others overtook it.

When the settlement at Mattakeese did not develop as planned, Bachiler returned to present day Massachusetts and settled shortly at Newbury. He was granted land there (6 July 1638) and was associated with a church (or, as Anderson put it, he may have been working "to keep in existence the church that he had earlier organized at Lynn").[35]

From Newbury, Bachiler led the successful effort to settle Hampton. He recounted his various New England migrations in a letter dated 26 February 1643/4. Quoting from the letter, Robert Charles Anderson wrote,[36]

"the Lord shove me thence [i.e., after his arrival in 1632, and the failure of the Plough Company] by another calling to Sagust, then, from Sagust to Newbury, then from Newbury to Hampton."



Life in New England


  • On 28 June 1641 at Saco four men were chosen as arbitrators in a dispute between GEORGE CLEEVE and JOHN WINTER , and in case those four men could not agree, Stephen Bachiler was to be "an umpire for the final ending of the said controversies" [Trelawny Papers 269-72, 319].
  • In 1641 Winthrop reported that Bachiler "being about 80 years of age, and having a lusty comely woman to his wife, did solicit the chastity of his neighbor's wife" [WJ 2:53], and this led to an attack on him by Dalton and a large portion of the Hampton congregation.
  • A letter dated 26 February 1643/4 indicates that by this time, SB was in Hampton" [WP 4:447].
  • 1643-4, when the town of Exeter invited Bachiler to be their minister, the affair was raised again, and this was sufficient to prevent his removal to that church [GMN 4:21-22]. At about this time Bachiler's ministry at Hampton ceased, and he soon moved to Strawberry Bank [Portsmouth], where he remained until his return to England.
  • Later in 1644 Winthrop pointed out that "Mr. Batchellor had been in three places before, and through his means, as was supposed, the churches fell to such divisions, as no peace could be till he was removed" [WJ 2:216-17].

Final Years

  • 9 April 1650 at a Quarterly Court held at Salisbury, "Mr. Steven Bacheller [was] fined for not publishing his marriage according to law." At the same court it was ordered "that Mr. Bacherler and Mary his wife shall live together, as they publicly agreed to do, and if either desert the other, the marshal to take them to Boston to be kept until next quarter Court of Assistants, to consider a divorce... [EQC 1:191].
  • 2 October 1650 "Steven Bachiler" witnessed a deed between Christopher Hussey (grantor) and Steven Sanborn and Samuel Fogg (grantees) [NLR 1:19]; this is the last certain record of Bachiler in New England (unless the "Mr. Batchelder" who was presented at court on 28 June 1652 for being illegally at the house of John Webster is our man [NHPP 40:87-88]).
  • 15 October 1650 at a court at York "George Rodgers & Mrs. Batcheller [were] presented upon vehement suspicion of incontinency for living in one house together & lying in one room" [MPCR 1:146].
  • 16 Oct 1651: At a court at Piscataqua [i.e., Kittery] the grand jury presented "George Rogers for, & Mary Batcheller the wife of Mr. Steven Bacheller minister for adultery"; George Rogers was to have forty strokes, and Mary Bachiler "for her adultery shall receive 40 strokes save one at the first town meeting held at Kittery six weeks after the delivery & be branded with the letter A" [MPCR 1:164]. This child born late in 1651 or early in 1652 was apparently the Mary Bachiler who later married William Richards, and even though the Dover Court on 26 March 1673 awarded him administration of the estate of Stephen Bachiler [NHPP40:287], she would not have been his daughter. (See MA Arch 9:28 and NHGR 8:14 for more on Bachiler's fourth wife.)
  • 1651-1654: While most secondary sources claim that he made that trip in 1654 when his grandson Stephen Samborne returned to England, and a number of records in New England between 1651 and 1654 mentioned Stephen Bachiler, none of them necessarily implies that Bachiler was still in New England, and a few indicate that he was not in close proximity to the courts in question. "Apparently John Sanborn and others were pursuing the interests of Stephen Bachiler in his absence, but without a proper power of attorney. It might be argued that he was in Strawberry Bank [Portsmouth], but unable to come to Hampton, but there is no indication that he was ill or unable to travel at any time in his long life, and the more likely explanation is that he was already in England by October of 1651.
Others say 1654 due to a supposed 1653 birth record found of a son in New England. [FIND] Others say he returned to England with his grandson.
  • 3 October 1654 "Mr. Batcheller's letter of attorney to Mr. Christopher Hussie [was] approved" [EQC 1:372].

From the monument to Stephen Bachiller in Founders Park, Hampton, New Hampshire.

"A little band of pioneers under the leadership of Rev. Stephen Bachiler of Southhampton, England. Seeking a larger liberty, in October 1638 settled in the wilderness near this spot to plant a free church in a free town. They were joined in 1639 by others and in that year the town was incorporated. To do honor to the founder of Hampton, to exalt the ideals for which they strove and as an inspiration to posterity this memorial is dedicated, October 14, 1925.

An excellent account of Rev. Stephen Bachiler's life by George Freeman Sanborn, Jr., was published in The New Hampshire Genealogical Record. January 1991.

Family .

Robert Charles Anderson identified six children born to Rev. Bachiler, all with his first wife.

  1. NATHANIEL, born say 1590; married first, Hester Mercer or LeMercier.[37] He married again, by 1645, to Margery _____. As "Margerie Batchellor" she was granted administration on his estate.[38] This Nathaniel did not immigrate to New England, "but his son Nathaniel did, and resided at Hampton."[39]
  2. DEBORAH, born about 1592.[40] She married by 1611 to John Wing.[41] Deborah (Bachiler) Wing and her children immigrated to New England in the late 1630s; this family resided Sandwich.[42]
  3. STEPHEN, born about 1594, matriculated Oxford from Magdalen College at the age of 16.[43] Was ordained a deacon in 1613 at Oxford[44] Anderson reports no further record for this child.
  4. SAMUEL, born say 1597 and lived at Gorcum, Holland; was a minister. He married and had children.[45]
  5. ANN, born about 1601.[46] Ann married first, by about 1620, to _____ Samborne. She married second, at Strood, Kent on 20 January 1631/2 to Henry Atkinson.
  6. THEODATE, born say 1610 she married by about 1635 to Christopher Hussey.[47]

Noteworthy oversights/conflicts in print regarding Bachiler's children.

(a) Savage included sons Francis and Henry, but Anderson (1995) found these associations based on the "misinterpretation of a 1685 letter from Stephen Bachiler to Nathaniel Bachiler" , which refers to "our brother Francis Bachlir." [48] Anderson goes on to explain that the letter in question is between Stephen Bachiler's grandsons, so that the reference is most likely about other grandchildren.
(b) One or two children were reportedly born to Bachiler's fourth wife Mary sometime after their marriage. One of these children was named Mary and her husband, William Richards, was awarded administration on Stephen Bachiler's estate by the Dover Court in 1673.<Citing "NHPP 40:287" in Robert Charles Anderson, The Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England 1620-1633, Volumes I-III, 3 vols. (1995), 1:67 (in particular part); digital images, AmericanAncestors.org (accessed 2013).</ref> Nonetheless, Anderson reports, "she would not have been his daughter."[49]

Famous Descendants

  1. "Daniel Webster, the politician and famous orator, was one of the illustrious descendants of Stephan Bachiller. Daniel Webster wrote to his son Fletcher March 5, 1840: "I believe we are all indebted to my father's mother for a large portion of the little sense which belongs to us. Her name was Susannah Bachelder; she was the descendant of a clergyman and a woman of uncommon strength of understanding. If I had had many boys I should have called one them Bachelder."[50]
  2. Richard Milhous Nixon, 37th President of the U. S., was both a 10th and an 11th generation descendant of Rev. BACHILER.
  3. Gerald Rudolph Ford, Jr., 38th President of the U. S., is a 13th generation descendant of Rev. BACHILER.

The third installment devotes much space to a spirited but unconvincing defense of Bachiler against the claim made by Winthrop that one of the grounds of the Hampton church's dispute with Bachiler was an attempt "to solicit the chastity of his neighbor's wife."

This volume includes a long sketch of Stephen Bachiler (pp. 75-115), including the accounts of his children, which, as is typical with this author, contains much information of dubious validity, very poorly organized. Embedded in the list of the immigrant's children, between the daughter Deborah and the son Stephen, are several accounts of Reverend Stephen Bachiler prepared by other authors, mostly published in various town histories [Batchelder Gen 95-109].
  • Prince, Annals of New England, Appendix to 1632, says: 'From governor Winslow and Captain Johnson, we learn that) he (Stephen Bachiller) was an ancient minister in England: had been a man of Fame in his Day; was 71 years of Age when he came over: bro't a number of people with him; and soon became the 1st Feeder of the Flock of Christ at Lynn (and by several Letters I have seen of his own Writing to the R. Mr. Cotton of Boston, I find he was a Gentleman of Learning and Ingenuity, and wrote a fine and curious hand.')."
