History of Hingham: Bates, Clement, aged 40 years with Anna his wife, who also was 40 years of age, and five children embarked at London for New England April 6, 1635, in the ship "Elizabeth," of which William Stagg was master. he came to Hingham about the time Rev. Peter Hobart and his followers arrived, and on the 18th of September 1635 received a grant of land on Town (South) Street. This lot contained five acres and was bounded on the NE by George Russell and SW by Thomas Johnson. It was the fifth in number from Bachelor (Main) Street and has been in possession of the descendants of the original grantee for nearly two and a half centuries. In 1883 the estate, including the ancient dwelling house formerly known as the "Anchor Tavern," was sold to the owners of the land adjoining. A portion of the estate, however, has since been repurchased; and on the spot where the old house stood a dwelling of modern style has been erected, which is occupied by a descendant. /P/ The name Bate was a common one in England for nearly two centuries before the Puritans took their departure for New England, and the ancestors of Clement are traceable for five generations prior to that period; thus, Thomas Bate[1] of Lydd, Parish of All Hallows, died in 1485, leaving a son John, who died in 1522. John[2] (Thomas[1]) had a son Andrew who died at Lynn in 1533, leaving four sons. Andrew [3] (John [2] Thomas [1]) had a son John [4] of Lydd who died there in 1580, leaving three sons, one of whom, James [5], who died at Lydd in 1614, was the father of Clement of Hingham MA and also of Edward, who settled at Wey. MA and James of Dor MA. Anna, wife of Clement, died in Hingham 1 October 1669 --t 74 years. Clement died 17 September 1671, --t 76 years. In his will dated at Hingham 12 October 1669, gives to eldest son James, "my house lot next adjoining to my son Joseph containing four acres which was given unto me by the town. To sons Joseph and Benjamin, land and other valuables. To son Samuel, my now dwelling house with the lot of five acres which the house stands upon. Also all my household stuff to my four sons," etc. The children of Clement and Anna Bates were
