From John Rogers of Marshfield:226
    John^2 joined the Quakers in 1660, Deane says, but probably a little earlier, for John^3 was baptized in 1657, by Mr. Witherell, while Thomas^3 born in 1659, and Rhoda^3 born in 1661 or 1662, were baptized on the account of their mother, Rhoda, who had evidently continued to adhere to Mr. Witherell's church. Apparently his second wife, Elizabeth, was also a member of that church, for the record of the baptism of her daughter is “Mary, ye daughter of Elizabeth Rogers.”
    The Friends' records commence in 1680, but a large number of births, which occurred before that date, were entered; among them all the children of John^2, except John^3 and Rhoda^3.
    He took the oath of freeman in 1657, and is often mentioned in the public records for nearly sixty years after that date.
    On the Friends' records (Scituate) is the following:
“Sufferings of John Rogers of Marshfield. 27 day of 2 mo. 1681, came the constable Joseph Waterman to my house and brought two men with him and brought a warrant with him which he said came from the magistrate John Alden. The constable could not read it nor any that were with him, it was so blotted : and the constable demanded of me 01-04-02, which he said was rates to the priest, Samuel Niles of Marshfield, the which I could not pay for conscience sake. Whereupon the constable seized upon a steare of two years old and took him away from me. — John Rogers of Marshfield.”
    Those records have many similar entries among them, one by John Rogers^3 of Scituate, dated 26 of 3 mo. 1683, in which he says that the constable took away “two platters and two porringers which they prized at 11 shillings.”
    On May 16, 1659, John Rogers^2 Jun., was chosen grand juryman by the town.
    In 1692, John^3 was one of the Selectmen of Marshfield and assisted in running the line between that town and “the Two Miles in Scituate.”
    On June 16, 1692, he was on a jury "to lay out and remove highways" in Marshfield; in their return they describe a way, which ran near the houses of the three brothers:
“And in the new way which said Rogers [John^2] lately made and so on over the cove creek by his house and so along by French’s tinnament and Henry Perry's house to the upper end of the field before said Perry's door ; and then turning southward along by the land of Thomas King and John Silvester's lot and so till it meet the Scituate way. And also by the cove creek downward as the old way leadeth by the house of Timothy Rogers and up the hill by his house, and so as the new way now lieth near to Joseph Rogers’ fence and so on to the line of Elisha Bisbee.”
    On August 30, 1692, on the request of her husband it was voted by “The Meeting” to hold meetings once a month at the house of Elizabeth Rogers on account of her illness. She died two weeks later.
    He and his third wife, Elizabeth, signed, May 11, 1699. the certificate of the marriage of his daughter, Elizabeth, at Friends’ meeting, after their manner.
    In a deposition given June 16, 17 13, John^ says that he was seventy-nine years old or thereabouts.
    In his will d. May 9, 1718, p. June 24, 17 18, he describes himself as “aged”; mentions his son, John, to whom he gives the three hundred pounds “which he hath already received of me in money and three score pounds more”; gives legacies to his daughter, Abigail Chamberling; his daughter, Joanna Butler; his grandson, Samuel Dogged; his granddaughter, Mary White, and his granddaughter, Sarah Allyn; the residue he gives to his son, Thomas.
    Thomas King, in his will dated in 1691, gives legacies to his two grandsons, John and Thomas Rogers.
    Mr. Witherell has, among records of baptisms, “1657 John, ye sonns of John Rogers jun. August 23,” “Rhoda, ye daughter of Rhoda Rogers, Aug. 30, 1662.”
    In 1708, the Friends’ “Women's Meetings” were held at the houses of John Rogers of Marshfield, Edward Wanton of Scituate, and Robert Barker and Arthur Howland of Duxborough now Pembroke.

Sarah first married Hopestill Bisbee, second Joseph Lincoln as his second wife.

In the Bisbee Family,15 and other sources, Sarah is said to have been married to Elisha Bisbee (Hopestill’s brother), rather than Hopestill Bisbee. Sarah’s father, Thomas, bequeathed in 1691 “to my daughter, Sarah Bisbey, the use and improvement of three acres of marsh land, up the river in Marshfield next to the ‘Gravely Beach’ there and so by upland side, during her natuaral live and the life of her husband.” At that time Elisha Bisbee was married to Mary Jacob, so Sarah King could not have been married to Elisha, but could have been married to Hopestill Bisbee.

ca 1680 Sarah first married Hopestill Bisbee (6393) , son of Elisha Bisbee (2659) (-ca 1689) & Joanna [Bisbee]. Born ca 1645 in Scituate, MA. Hopestill was baptized in the Second Church of Scituate, on 7 Sep 1645.73 Hopestill died on 12 Nov 1695 in Marshfield, MA.171
