John Wing1 (M)
b. 1 March 1689, d. April 1750, #94
Pedigree

     John Wing was born on 1 March 1689 in Rochester, Plymouth Co., MA, New England.1,2 He was the son of John Wing and Martha Spooner.2 He and Experience Gifford were Quaker, at the time of the marriage (recorded Sandwich MM).3
     John, age 21, married Experience Gifford, age 24, daughter of William Gifford, on 23 May 1710 at Falmouth, Barnstable Co., MA, New England.1,4,5,3
     John Wing died in April 1750 at the age of 61 years and 1 month.1

     Research Note:  "John Wing's home, the ancestral home of numerous Wing descendants, was on Great Neck, but later generations lived farther north in Marion, in the vicinity where today stands the Methodist Church. A large territory in this region was once occupied by Wing families. John Wing was a surveyor, and about 1700 he wrote a book on surveying, which showed the methods then used. For many years persons by the name of Wing held the office of town clerk.
     John Wing, with Savory Clifton who lived in the same vicinity, and a few others, started the Quaker movement in Rochester. John Wing and very many of his descendants lie buried in the old Friends' burying-ground opposite the Methodist church.
     The graves of thes early settlers are mostly unmarked, but on a small tablet in the enclosure one may read:
          'Within this inclosure lie the Remains of 326 Friends: 200 x 67 Ft.6' "
