  1. 1.  Job Lane was born about 1620 in Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, England; died on 23 Aug 1697 in Malden, Middlesex, Massachusetts.

    Notes:

    Described variously as a master-carpenter, housewright, and bridge-builder. In 1664 he purchased a large tract of land in Billerica from Governor John Winthrop. His second wife Anna Reyner owned land in England, and rent from tenants on that land enabled Job to import in-demand goods from England to New England.

    "[F]rom near the dates 1662 to 1816 inclusive, or over one hundred and fifty years, the Job Lane family received a yearly rental from the English estates -- an instance wholly unparalleled in New England history." [Lane Genealogies, citation details below.]

    He appears to have been in England when his kinsman, Thomas Howell of Marshfield, Massachusetts, named him his executor. Lane refused the appointment.

    Job married Sarah Boyse in 1647 in England. Sarah died on 14 May 1659 in Malden, Middlesex, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

The soldier declined to fire; she took his gun, discharged it, and a dead Indian rolled into sight."
