First Generation
—————————————————————————————————————————————
1. Richard Dunham. Born in Langford, England. Occupation: Poulter.
In his will, dated 5 October 1624, Richard Dunham left his body "to be buryed in such a place as my Executores shall think convenient." He mentioned son William, son William's son Richard, son John ("my best shirte and Twenty shillings in mony to be payd him at his retorne"), daughter Anne and her son Richard; daughter Elisabeth; residue to son Richard, who was to be executor. "Father Dunham, an old man" was buried at Langford on 19 November 1624, the only entry for that surname in the published parish register. The shirt and money to be paid to John Dunham "at his retorne" shows that the testator's son was away from home; the phrase probably means no more than that John would receive his legacy if he were to return, not that he was expected to do so.
Child:
2 i. Jonathan (ca1589-1668)
Second Generation

Family of Richard Dunham (1)
2. Deacon Jonathan Dunham (Richard1). Born ca 1589 in Langford, England. Jonathan died in Plymouth, Plymouth Colony, Massachusetts, on 1 Mar 1668 or 1669; he was 79. Resided in Leyden, Holland (Netherlands), in 1622. abt 1622. Immigrated in 1628 or 1633 to From Leyden, Holland, To Plymouth, Massachusetts. Occupation: Linenweaver / Deacon Of The Plymouth Colony. Member of the clergy. (You can read more about Jonathan and other contemporary family members here.)
John Dunham was chosen deacon of the church in 1633. This is the year some historians say he arrived in the colony. It is not creditable that immediately upon his arrival he should have been chosen for so responsible a position. The following extract concerning Deacon John Dunham taken from the records expresses the opinion of those who were about placing him in power as deputy of the Colony (1638). "He was a man of strict honesty and sterling character, quite prominent in the growth and prosperity of the Colony." By purchase and grants he accumulated considerable property. His son John had also received a special grant, being one of the first born of the old comers. By trade he was a weaver and plied the loom. He was a cattle raiser and one of the first purchasers of Dartmouth. "In church, state and business he was an approved servant of God and a useful man in his place."
On 7 Aug 1612 when Jonathan was 23, he first married Susanna Kenney/Keno/Kaino, daughter of Thomas Kaino/Cainehoe (-15 Apr 1612) & Joann (-7 feb 1630 or 1631), in Clophill, Bedfordshire, England. Born bef 12 Dec 1586 in Clophill, Bedfordshire, England. Susanna died in Leydon, South Holland, Netherlands, bef 7 Oct 1622; she was 35.
Susan, daughter of Thomas "Cainehoe," was baptized in Clophill on 12 December 1586, and this appears to be the baptism of Deacon John Dunham's first wife. Thomas Caynehoe or Kaino was buried at Clophill on 15 April 1612, and an administration for the estate of Thomas "Keynoe" of Clophill was granted on 7 May 1612 to his widow Joanne; his inventory totaled 9 pounds, 10 shillings and 8 pence. Joanne is apparently the widow Joan Keno buried at Clophill on 7 February 1630. One could speculate that Deacon John's son Thomas Dunham might have been named for Susan's father Thomas Cainho.
They had the following children:
3 i. Thomas (~1619-1676)
4 ii. Humility (~1617-<1622)
On 22 Oct 1622 when Jonathan was 33, he second married Abigail Barlow (Ballou, Baillou), daughter of Thomas Barlow (Ballou, Baillou) & Anna, in Leyden, Holland (Netherlands). Born ca 1600 in Leyden, Holland (Netherland). Her last name has several different spellings in the records.
