LARCOM or LARKHAM
The Larcom (or Larkham) family was probably from the Channel Islands where so many of the early settlers in Marblehead and Beverly, Lynn and Gloucester lived before settling in Massachusetts.
Many of these were of French Huguenot stock, and began to come to this country about 1680. The surname Larkham is of ancient English origin, indicating a place name adopted as a family name.
The spelling “Larcom” seems to be of American origin. Numerous other variations of spellng have been found.
In this family, we find the proverbial three brothers, but there appears to be also a sister, Abigail, who married at Beverly, Massachusetts (intention dated March 16, 1706-7 James Clark.
One of the brothers, Mordecai, the only one mentioned by Savage, married at Beverly, November 10, 1691, Abigail Solart and settled in Wenham, an adjacent town. (Children: 1 John, born November 20, 1695, 2 John born Jun 10, 1699, 3 Rebecca born July 10, 1701, 4 Hannah, born July 16, 1704.)
Another brother, Daniel. married Phebe, perhaps in the old country, and settled in Beverly (son Joseph, born at Beverly and baptized May 27, 1694)
Though records have been searched, no trace of the parents of these brothers and sister has been found.
