John Partridge came to Medfield from Dedham in 1653, and was probably accompanied by his brother William and sister Margery. He was in Dedham at least a year earlier than that, for on "ye 7 of ye 1 Mo. 1652" he shared with others in the division of 500 acres of land. Prior to these dates, nothing concerning them can yet (1903) be stated with certainty.
John and William both signed the proprietors' agreement drawn, it is supposed, by Ralph Wheelock, the founder of Medfield. They appear to have been useful citizens, each serving the town as selectman and John being chosen clerk of the market in 1672. In 1676, at the burning of Medfield by the Indians, John's house and barn were destroyed, together with a quantity of grain and several head of cattle and two horses. He married Magdelen Bullard, eldest daughter of John Bullard, one of the town's first settlers. They were married by Major Eleazer Lusher. John's will, written 20 June 1701, is at the Probate office in Boston; the signature is plain.
Nearly every Partridge adult was the owner of a home. They did not live in hired houses. Many a young man owned a farm and house before he had a wife. There was an old saying "get your cage, before you catch your bird." Nearly all Partridges marrried. Most lived very plainly. There was a strong desire that homesteads might continue in the possession of a son from generation to generation. The "visitations of essex" record arouses speculation that Bartholomew Partridge of Navestock married Pernell, dau. of John Greene of the same place. Their son, Captain John Partridge was the father of John "about 14 yeres 1634", William, Jane and Margaret. Three of these children may have settled in Medfield though it cannot now be proved. p.19 Dedham Historical Register vol. 8 (1896)
Mention is made of his sons John, Eleazer, Samuel, and Zachariah; daughters mentioned were Rachel, wife of Theophilus Clark; and three of his grandchildren: Eleazer Adams, Abadiah Adams, and Hannah Rockwood. - See more at: http://www.wellswooster.co
