  Notes	"The ancestor of this family, according to tradition, was a wealthy banker of London, and d. soon after his arrival in Boston. Mrs. JOANNA, probably his wife, d. in Braintree, in 1661." SOURCE: Watertown Genealogies =============================== "HOARE (Hoar), Charles (d in Eng., will probated Dec. 21, 1638; son of Charles, of Gloucester, Eng., m Margery --), alderman, Gloucester, Eng., 1632-38; sheriff, 1634; m 1607?, Joanna Hinksman, or Henchman (d 1661), she came to America with 5 children, settled at Braintree, Mass.; buried in Old Quincy burying ground." SOURCE: Compendium of American Genealogy =============================== "His son, the 2nd Charles, also lived in the same place. He was alderman of the city from 1632 to 1638. Sheriff in 1634. He left a will dated Sept. 25, 1638. "Prerogative Court of Canterbury, Doctors Commons, Adm'ion granted Dec. 31, 1638 to Joane Hoare the relict." (Will with notes by G. F. Hoar). He appears to have left quite a large estate and was a man much engaged in public affairs. His widow, with her five children, John, Daniel, Joanna, Leonard and Margerie came to this ountry in 1639-40, and settled in Braintree, Mass." SOURCE: Alfred Hoar Family =============================== "Charles Hoar, father of the American immigrants, was a prominent citizen of Gloucester, England. He was a brewer by trade. He was sheriff of Gloucester. His widow Joanna and children came to America and she died at Braintree in 1661. Children: Daniel, came to America, but returned to England in 1653; Leonard, president of Harvard College, 1672-75, married Bridget Lisle, who married (second) Hezekiah Usher Jr., and she died May 25, 1723; John, mentioned below; Margery, married Henry Flint; Joanna, married Edmund Quincy." SOURCE: New England Families G&M =============================== "His son, the second Charles, also lived in the same place. He was alderman of the city from 1632 to 1638. Sheriff in 1634. He left a will dated Sept. 25, 1638. "Prerogative Court of Canterbury, Doctors Commons, Ad'ion granted Dec. 31, 1638, to Joane Hoare the relict." (Will with notes by G. F. Hoar.) He appears to have left quite a large estate and was a man much engaged in public affairs. His widow, with her five children, John, Daniel, Joanna, Leonard and Margerie, came to this country in 1639-40, and settled in Braintree, Mass. About this date many families, who brought much wealth, came to New England. The cause of this emigration would appear to arise from the troublesome times in England. Charles I became king in 1625. Then came the long Parliament, and the Civil War began late in 1642. Charles I was condemned and executed in London, January 30, 1649. There is no doubt but that our line at the time of the second Charles Hoare belonged to the Parliament side and were strong supporters of the Protestant faith, and this line of the Hoar family would probably never have had to be recorded if Joane and her son John had remained in England. (See "The Hoar Family in America," by H. S. Nurse, 1899.) Joanna (Joane in will), the widow of the second Charles, died in Braintree, Sunday, December 20, 1661. The meaning of the name (grace of the Lord) seems very happily merited. She was buried in the old Quincy Cemetery with her son Leonard and his wife and daughter. ... "2.
