     Col. Benjamin Church was born circa 1640 at Plymouth, Plymouth Co., Massachusetts, USA; per Mayflower Families (p. 6): "based on age at d."5,6 He married Alice Southworth, daughter of Ens. Constant Southworth and Elizabeth Collier, on 26 December 1667 at Tiverton, Newport Co., Rhode Island, USA.8,1,9,2,5,10

Col. Benjamin Church died on 17 January 1718 at Little Compton, Newport Co., Rhode Island, USA; per Mayflower Families "in 78th yr."1,2,10
      ;      COL Benjamin Church was an American carpenter, military officer, and Ranger during America's Colonial era, specifically during King Philip's War.
     Born in Plymouth Colony in about 1639, Church married Alice Southworth, daughter of Constant Southworth, step-son of Governor William Bradford, on December 26, 1667 in Duxbury, Massachusetts. He resided for a time in Duxbury and later moved to Sakonnet (now Little Compton), Rhode Island.
     Church was a principal aide to Governor Josiah Winslow of Plymouth Colony. Remembered primarily for leading small groups of fighting men, referred to as Rangers, during King Philip's War (1675–1676).
     During that war, for six hours, COL Church and just thirty seven other Englishmen from Plymouth Colony withstood an assault by more than three hundred Indians. That battle became known as the Pease Field Fight, the location of which is located west of modern Nonquit Pond, between Tiverton and Little Compton, RI.
     Church was eventually allowed to recruit Indians when traditional Army tactics of the times proved unsuccessful. He persuaded many neutral or formerly hostile Indians to join his unit, where they operated skillfully as irregular troops.
     In June of 1676, Church signed an agreement with Awashonks, the Sakonnet sachem, at "Treay Rock" in modern Little Compton, RI, guarenteeing a truce between the Sakonnets and the English.
     King Philip's War came to an end on 12AUG1676 when one of Church's Indian Rangers (John Alderman) killed King Philip. Upon inspection of Philip's body, Church is quoted as saying "a doleful, great, naked, dirty beast".
     Philip was shot, draw and quartered and be-headed. His severed head was reportedly displayed at Plymouth for twenty years.
     Over the next 28 years, Church led five New England raiding parties into Maine and Canada against the French and Indians; he carried out devastating raids in Acadia.
     Though sometimes considered America's first "Great Indian Fighter", Church's first inclination was to try and find common ground with the Native People. Indeed, when first settling in Sakonnet, he was the only Englishman for miles, surrounded by Indians on three sides, the Sakonnet River on the other.
     In addition, Church vehemently opposed Governor Winslow's decision to sell Indian captives into slavery and sought clemency for former Indian rivals after the war.
     COL Church dictated his story to his son Thomas, first published in 1716 as "Entertaining Passages Relating to Philip's War". Various editions have been published since, including "The History of Philip's War, Commonly Called the Great Indian War of 1675 and 1676", edited by Samuel Drake in 1829 and reprinted in 1989 by Heritage Book, Bowie, MD.
     Legacy: Generally regarded as the founder of Little Compton, RI.
     COL Church was the grandfather of Dr. Benjamin Church, the first "Surgeon General" (though that title came later) of the Continental Army. In 1776, Dr. Church was arrested for treason for selling information to Governor Gage and the British in Boston in 1775-1776.

; Constant SOUTHWORTH, colonist, born in Leyden, Holland, in 1614 ; died in Duxbury, Massachusetts, about 1685. His father, Edward, a merchant and business agent for the Leyden Pilgrims, died in 1621, and his mother, a woman of great worth and ability, came over in the third vessel to Plymouth colony in 1623 to become the second wife of Governor William Bradford, whom she had formerly known. The son was educated by his step-father, and in 1633 was one of the early settlers of Duxbury, which he represented in the legislature, becoming also commissioner for the united colonies, governor of the Kennebec plantation, and assistant governor of Plymouth. He was the supposed author of the supplement to "New England's Memorial," by his cousin, Nathaniel Morton (Cambridge, 1669). He bequeathed to one of his daughters two beds and furniture, "provided she do not marry William Fobbes, but if she do, then to have five shillings." The daughter preferred the latter alternative.13

Ens. Constant Southworth immigrated on 11 November 1620; per van de Pas: arrived on the Mayflower
per Anderson [2004]: migrated in 1628.3,12

; Edward Southworth was born circa 1590 in England to Thomas Southworth and Rosamond Lister. His grandfather, Sir John Southworth and his parents, Thomas Southworth and Rosamond Lister were living in London when he was born (Weis, 127-28; Weis in Ancestral Roots . . . ). He died about 1621 at London, county Middlesex; his wife was a widow in July 1623 (Tracy Crocker, MagnaCharta). Edward Southworth of Sturton le Steeple, silk worker. He married Alice Carpenter who was born Dec 1593 of Wrington, Someset, England. They were married May 28, 1613 in Leyden, Holland. He was shown on the rolls of a congregation of Puritans at Leyden, Holland during a period 1610 to 1622. His future wife Alice was a witness at sister Julia Ann's wedding on 23 July 1612. The widowed Alice Carpenter Southworth, went to Plymouth aboard the Anne in July 1623, her two sons following after 1627. (NEHGR, XIV, 1860, 195). Alice thus survived Edward Southworth and died 29 March 1670 in Plymouth, Massachusetts as the wife of Governor William Bradford.
Edward Southworth is listed as number seven of seven sons of Thomas Southworth and Rosamond Lister. His brother Thomas Southworth had a residence in Leyden, Holland in 1613 (Melton/Sharp).
COMMENTARY BY THIS SUBMITTER: The birth place of Edward Southworth is under challenge. A Magna Charta site (http://www. magnacharta.com, Tracy Crocker 2007) states he was born about 1590 at London, England in county Middlesex. A book by Walter Lee Sheppards (see sources) is probably the source. An earlier Magna Charta application also had him born in London. The family of Edward Southworth on the Melton/Sharp web page asserts, "In 1602, Edward and his brothers, including Thomas, were still in the neighborhood of Samlesbury, all listed as foreign burgesses with their father in the Preston (Lancashire) Guild Roll of that year. They were all mentioned by their grandfather, Sir John Southworth, in his will dated September 17, 1593. Sir John died November 3 the same year." The Tracy Crocker data on Magna Charta.com states Edward Southworth of Sturton Le Steeple was a silk worker (citing a letter from Robert Cushman to Edward Southworth at Heneage House, London, 17 August 1620 (Bradford's history of Plymouth Plntation, Boston, 1901, p. 86).
COMMENTARY: Sturton Le Steeple is far east of Liverpool past Sheffield in the middle of England. Edward Southworth as a "foreign burgess" in a guild registered in county Lancaster traveled from north England to London and over to Holland, then back. He would have been more than a "silk worker." A 1982 unabridged dictionary defines a Burgess as a citizen of a town or borough, or (2) in England, a representative or a borough, corporate town, or university in the British parliament. This explain a 1602 connection in both county Lancaster (Lancashire) and London, as the Southworths would have needed living accomodations in London. His ancestral background suggests a person of affluence and influence.
Edward Southworth was born circa 1590 at London, county Middlesex, England to Thomas Southworth and Edmund Lister. He died about 1621 as his wife was a widow in July 1623 (Tracy Crocker, MagnaCharta). Edward Southworth of Sturton le Steeple, silk worker. His death is identified as ca. 1621 from a "letter of Robert Cushman to Edward Southworth at Heneage House, London, 17 August, 1620, in Bradford's "History of Plimouth Plantation, Boston, 1901, page 86."

He was first and remained James VI, King of Scotland, but did not spend much time in Scotland after succeeding to the throne in England. James suffered chronic illness, wrote poetry, ailments caused facial deformity, could not get along with Parliament so could not raise money for war. He died in bed (unlike Stuart precessors), but England had peace (Murray, 85-89).
