Generation 3
On 10 March 1633/4 "Phineas Prat, joiner, in the behalf of Marah his
wife," exchanged thirty acres near the high cliff with Mr. Thomas Prence, for
another thirty acres at Winslow's [PCR 1:26]. On 14 March 1635/6 Phineas
Pratt was to have hayground "between Fr[ancis] Billington and his own
house" and on 20 March 1636/7 he was granted the same hay ground he
and Mr. Coomes had the last year [PCR 1:40, 56]. On 1 June 1640 Phineas
Pratt was granted five acres of meadow [PCR 1:154]. On 2 November 1640
he was granted six acres in the north meadow by Joanes River [PCR
1:166]. On 5 August 1640 he joined John Combe, gentleman, in selling the
acre that came to him from Godbert Godbertson in marriage to
Godbertson's step-daughter [PCR 12:61]. On 26 August 1646 "Phineas
Prate of Plimoth, joiner," sold to John Cooke Jr. of Plymouth, planter, "all
that his house & housing and garden place and orchard ... and fifty acres of
upland, two acres of meadow at Joanes River ... [and] six acres of upland
meadow"; Mary, his wife, consented to this sale, as did "Samuell Cudberte"
[PCR 12:137-38]. He was twenty-eighth on the list of purchasers [PCR
2:177].
On 5 June 1658 the court allowed "Phenias Prat" to look for a tract of land
to accommodate himself and his posterity [PCR 3:139]. Phineas Pratt and
Elder Bates (in behalf of the children of Clement Briggs) petitioned the court
and the court ordered on 8 June 1664 that since Briggs and Pratt had not
received their proportions of land as other "Purchasers" had, two of Briggs's
sons and Pratt were to have three hundred and fifty acres granted to them
[PCR 4:68]. On 7 June 1665 "Pheneas Pratt and James Lovell" were
granted "a certain parcel of meadow ... lying on the westerly side of Phenias
Pratt's land that was granted unto him the last June Court ... to be equally
divided betwixt them" [PCR 4:97]. On 1 January 1672/3 Phineas and Mary
Pratt of Charlestown sold to John Shaw Sr. of Weymouth the land granted to
them by the court on 8 June 1664 and 7 June 1665 [PCLR 3:271].

son Joseph Pratt for and in consideration of the having of my land and my
wife is to have a convenient room of my son Joseph with a chimney in it
to her content to live in for term of her life, without
molestation or trouble, but if my son Joseph doth not perform this will
that then my wife Mary Pratt shall have the one half of the land to her
disposing for her best comfort; it is to be understood that the one half
which the new house standeth on is given to Joseph upon the condition
of providing of a convenient room for me and my wife for term of our
lives and this other half for the paying of the 40s. a year"; residue at the
death "of my wife it shall be equally divided among all my children" [MPR
Case #12762; MD 4:139].
The inventory of the estate of "Phinias Prat of Charlstown, deceased,"
was taken 21 May 1680 and totalled £40 16s. 6d., including real estate
valued at £24: "a parcel of land," £18; and "cow common in Charlstown
stinted common," £6 [MPR Case #12762; MD 4:139-40].
The town of Charlestown supported the widow Pratt with a small
annual stipend, as seen in town orders dated 5 February 1683/4 and 7
March 1686/7 [MD 4:137, citing Charlestown Town Orders 4:56, 84]. On
31 July 1738 the court's commissioners examined the estate of
Phineas Pratt and determined that a share be given to each of the
children, including the heirs of sons John and Peter, who were then
dead. Although most of the other children were also deceased at that
date, they were not so noted. The children listed were John, Samuel,
Daniel, Peter, Mary, Joseph, Aaron and Mercy [MD 4:138]. BIRTH:
About 1593 (deposed 30 June 1674 aged "eighty-one years or
thereabouts" [MD 2:46, citing PLR 1:81], but see the inscription on his
tombstone, which would make him slightly older). DEATH: Charlestown
19 April 1680 ("Pinas Pratt [Senr.], of Charlstowne, joiner, died Apr. 19,
1680 [one of the 1st Planters in New England]" [ChVR 1:110]. The
inscription on his tombstone is frequently quoted: "Fugit Hora. Here lies
the body of Phinehas Pratt ag[e]d about 90 y[ea]rs dec[ease]d April the
19 1680 & was one of the first English inhabitants of the Massachusets
Colony" [MHSC 4:4:476].
MARRIAGE: By about 1633 Mary Priest, daughter of DEGORY PRIEST and
Sarah (Allerton) (Vincent) Priest, and step-daughter of GODBERT
GODBERTSON. (On 3 August 1640 "Josuah Pratt" deposed regarding two
acres of upland at Wellingsly Brook that were given by Godbert Godbertson to
JOHN COOMBE, gentleman, and Phineas Pratt, in marriage with their wives,
his [Godbertson's] step-daughters [PCR 1:159]. On 11 November 1633,
Phineas Pratt was appointed to "take into his possession all the goods and
chattels of Godbert Godbertson & Zarah, his wife, & safely to preserve them"
[PCR 1:19].) She is likely the "Widow Pratt lately died" at Charlestown in July
1689 [MD 4:136, citing Charlestown Town Orders 4:93].

1656 in Dartmouth, Mass[1, 4]. He married Bathsheba Fay Pratt Daggett on 1630 in Plymouth, Mass.,
daughter of William Kingham Fay and Catherine Bates Fay. She was born on 01 Jan 1593 in
England[5]. She died on 1673 in Plymouth, Mass[2].
Notes for JOSHUA PRATT:
Joshua Pratt came to American in the ship "Anne" 1623, and was
allotted land among "the old comers". His widow, Bathsheba,
administered upon his estate October 6, 1656. He was one of the
original thirty-six purchases of Dartmouth, who met at Plymouth, March 7,
1652.
The Ship "ANNE"
The ship "Anne" arrived the later part of June, and the "Little James" a
week or ten days later. A number of passengers were wives and children
of persons already in the Colony. The ship "Anne" arrived in Plymouth,
Massachusetts July 10, 1623 accompanied by the "Little James", bringing
new settlers along with many wives and children that had been left behind
in leyden when the Mayflower departed in 1620. On 5 December 1637
Abraham Pierce sold to Josuah Pratt a house and garden place in
Plymouth.

about 1605 based on estimated date of marriage. DEATH: Plymouth after 29
June 1652 (when he served on a coroner's jury [PCR 3:15]) and before 5
October 1656 (date of administration).
MARRIAGE: By about 1630 Bathsheba _____ (assuming she was the mother of
all his children); she married (2) Plymouth 29 August 1667 "John Doged
[Doggett] of Martha's Vineyard" [MD 8:31] (see JOHN DOGGETT). CHILDREN:
ASSOCIATIONS: Joshua Pratt and PHINEAS PRATT have many times been
called brothers. Though there is no direct evidence of this relationship, much
circumstantial evidence points in that direction. They received joint grants in the
1623 Plymouth division of land, and they were listed consecutively in the 1639
Plymouth list of freemen. Bathsheba, the daughter of Joshua, married in
Charlestown, where her uncle Phineas Pratt was living at the time; she may
have been placed
in his household after her father's death.
Since we know that Phineas Pratt came in 1622 as one of THOMAS
WESTON's men, and not in 1623 on the Anne as indicated in the 1623
land division, we might wonder whether Joshua also came in 1622 in the
same manner. Although this is possible, it seems unlikely, for otherwise we
would expect that Phineas, in his narrative of his trials and tribulations that
first winter in New England, would have made mention of his brother.

Pratt to Persis Dunham. Jonathan is apparently another name used by
both Dunham and Pratt.
Some sources claim that Joshua Pratt's wife was named Bathsheba
Fay. There is no evidence for this, and no Fay family in Plymouth who
might have supplied such a wife. This false claim apparently arises from
the misinterpretation of the marriage in Marlborough, Massachusetts, of
John Pratt and Bathsheba Fay on 4 January 1715/6.
On 5 November 1638, for some unseen offence, Josuah Pratt of
Plymouth, yeoman, was fined £10 and was "released" [PCR 1:101].
On 3 August 1640 Josuah Pratt deposed regarding two acres of upland at
Wellingsly Brook that were given by Godbert Godbertson to John Combe,
gentleman, and Phineas Pratt, in marriage with their wives (Godbertson's
stepdaughters) [PCR 1:159].

xxx Also on 5 March 1638/39, the General Court ordered that Mr. Nicholas
Simpkins, William Palmer, Philip Tabor, and Josiah Barnes of Yarmouth be
added to Thatcher, Howes, and Crow as commissioners. They were to make a
division of planting lands "to eich man according to his estate and quallitie."
Joshua Pratt of Plymouth and John Vincent were also appointed to determine
if lands occupied by Andrew Hallett were prejudicial to the other settlers, in
which case some rearrangement would be made. On 3 September 1639 the
court decided that Mr. Andrew Hallett could have his great 200-acre lot.
Otherwise, though, the court prohibited anyone in Yarmouth from purchasing
two or more house lots and putting up a single house on them. On 7 October
1639 the General Court ordered the town of Yarmouth to build a pair of stocks
and a pound, and the constable was authorized to confiscate goods from
anyone who refused to pay an assessment for the costs of these, as well as
for the travel of Yarmouth commissioners to attend the court at Plymouth.
Probably reacting from the experience at Sandwich, on 3 March 1639/40 the
General Court ordered that Yarmouth could accept no more inhabitants unless
"they bring certificate from the places whence they come, under sufficient
mens hands of the sd places, of their religious and honest carriage, wch
certyficate shall
