General Notes: Husband - [Ancestor] Weymouth

---

A surname of locality, Weymouth designated the vicinity "of Weymouth," a seaport and market town in County Dorset. In 1572 we find the name of Hugh Weymouth, St. Alban's Hall, in the "Register of the University of Oxford," and in 1749 the marriage of Alexander Chatte and Mary Weymouth is recorded. The name Weymouth has been identified with Maine and New Hampshire from very early times. Captain George Weymouth, of the English ship "Archangel," in 1605, "visited the gulf of Maine, planted a garden at Boothbay and on the island of Monhegan set up a cross in testimony that he, then and there, under the auspices and in the name of the English crown took possession of the territory now embraced within the limits of the State of Maine." ¹
