For explanation of the order given by the court Oct 27 1648, in answer to a petition received of Edney Bayly, widow of Rowley, and final determination of the case, it is ordered May 3 1649, that the 46li. given by Wm. Halsteed to her sone, Joseph Bayly, by Richard Bayly, deceased, remain in the hands of Ezekiell Northin, her present husband, until he shall be twenty one, and then so much be paid him as the will of Wm Halsteed appoints; that Joseph's portion out of his father's estates shall be 41li., which is two thirds of the estate, and shall also remain in the hands of Ezekiel Northin until his is fourteen years.

Fact In the 1640’s, Richard Bailey was on of the company that set up the first cloth mill in America.

Immigration 1638 England [3]

Occupation cloth miller

Real Estate Richard did not receive any land in the first survey of Rowley in 1643. Sometime shortly after the first survey, however, an acre and a half was laid out to him.

In 1644, he and Richard Holmes purchased the Thomas Harris property, which consisted of 2 acres on Main Street that Harris received in 1639. It was probable that Richard occupied the westerly end of the house, while Richard Holmes occupied the east end. A house built later (known as the Saunders house) stands on the site.

Died Bef 16 Dec 1647 Rowley, Essex Co., Mass.

Buried 16 Dec 1647 Rowley, Essex Co., Mass.
