Notes |
Macuth Pratt was the ancestor of nearly all the Pratts of Weymouth, Mass. New information shows that his name was "Macuth," rather than "Matthew," and that he was the son of Thomas Pratt of Aston Clinton, Buckinghamshire, England. He was born in about
1595. He is referred to by Cotton Mather in his "Magnalia" as a very religious man. Macuth came to New England in about 1638, not 1628, as was stated in Francis Pratt's 1889 genealogy. Macuth's wife was Elizabeth Kingham. She was baptized at Aston
Clinton on August 17, 1600, daughter of William and Catherine (Bate) Kingham.
Macuth Pratt died October 29, 1672, in Weymouth. His will is dated March 25, 1672 and was probated April 30, 1673. The will refers to "my Kinsman Elder Edward Bate." Edward Bate was a kinsman by virtue of being a cousin of Elizabeth (Kingham) Pratt.
Elizabeth died some time after Macuth, and is mentioned in his will.
