INDEX

[412]

Find A Grave memorial 38974344 offers:: "Husband of Rose Dunbar. Married in Morayshire, Scotland. In 1655 he settled in Hingham, Massachusetts where he resided on Scotland Street."
"The Original Scots Colonists of Early America - Supplement: 1607-1707," David Dobson (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1998), p. 44: "Dunbar, Robert, born 1634, son of Ninian Dunbar of Georgehill, prisoner of war, transported to Boston, servant of Lynn Iron Works, at Braintree, settled in Hingham, Massachusetts, 1650, died there 19.9.1693 [FEAF][AncH-NE][SH#14]." See notes for Ninian Dunbar in response to this information!

Robert's parents are not proven. "Gen. and Fam. History of the State of Connecticut in Four Volumes," New York: Lewis Historical Pub. Co., 1911, II:788, gives Robert's death date as 5 Oct 1693; the Hingham, MA History, Vol. 2, publ'd by the town in 1893, gives his death date as 19 Sept 1693 and reports that his will is dated 13 Sept 1693.} Robert resided on Scotland Street in Hingham.

NOTE: the possible father of Robert is first identified in print in "The Genealogy of the Dunbar Family," by the Rev. Melzar Dunbar (1886), who reports it as merely family lore. What IS known circumstantially is that Robert was a Cromwellian prisoner of war. The name of Lt. Col. Dunbarr [sic] is on a handscript list of prisoners taken at the Battle of Dunbar; no first name is given for any officers; he is listed second after Col. Leslie. In 1659 Robert deposed that he had been a servant of Mr. Joshua Foote when Mr. Foote lived in Boston. He also stated (in 1659) that he was 25 years old. Robert Dunbar's name appears on a plaque at the Saugus Iron Works (a National Monument); Mr. Joshua Foote was one of the proprietors of these Works. No record has been found of the marriage to Rose; perhaps they married in Scotland and Robert wrote to her for the funds to release himself from his indenture to Mr. Foote. Perhaps she subsequently came to America and brought whatever wealth they had. This could explain the Rev. Peter Hobart's comment that "the opinion generally prevailed in Hingham that Mr. Dunbar brought money enough with him to begin life without embarrassment, as for years there were but two men in the place who paid a higher tax." [The above is from a letter from Ann T. Chaplin, Clan Genealogist, Clan Dunbar, RFD 2 - Box 668, Center Barnstead, NH 03225, to AEM 7 Dec 1990; she wrote further, 27 Dec 1990: "I continue to disbelieve that Robert Dunbar of Hingham is the son of Ninian Dunbar of Grange Hill. Ninian had a son Sir Robert Dunbar, knighted in 1660 (assorted sources...). This then can NOT be the Robert who is in Hingham at that time!!" However, there is likely SOME relationship to this line.] See "The Descendants of Robert Dunbar of Hingham, Mass.," Ann Theopold Chaplin (Center Barnstead, NH: Snackerty Enterprises, 1992).
A history of the aftermath of the Battle of Dunbar: "At the Battle of Dunbar in 1650, the English defeated the Scots. 10,000 Scots were captured. Approximately 4,000 were let go, being weak or badly injured. The remaining 6,000 were then force-marched from Dunbar, Scotland to Durham, England - a distance of 110 miles. The prisoners were given very little to eat. Many prisoners died on the way either from disease or being killed due to disability or inability to keep up with the crowd. The Scots who did survive were held in a makeshift prison at Durham Cathedral. Approximately half of the prisoners died in captivity. The remainder presented a problem for the English, just due to sheer numbers. It was too expensive to house and feed them, but too dangerous to set them free and perhaps allow an uprising. Several of the prisoners had petitioned to be transported overseas. As such, 150 of the fittest were sent down to London, led aboard the 'Unity' and transported off to Massachusetts in America. Sixty-one of these were sold to the Saugus Iron Works. The men were provided with housing, food, clothing, liquor and tobacco in exchange for their labour. Most worked as wood cutters. Some were more skilled and were employed in the production or smithing of the iron." - from a posting on Facebook by Scottish Genealogy

Dick Schoenling (Webmaster@ClanDunbar.com) wrote 10 May 2004: "He is definitely not the son of Sir Ninian Dunbar of Grange. Sir Ninian did indeed have a son named Robert, but that Robert went on the become a member of Parliament. To my knowledge he never left what is now the UK. While he was arguing in Parliament, Robert & Rose of Hingham were busy building their family in Hingham. Robert of Hingham never left Massachusetts after arriving there in 1650. Obviously they can not be the same man. Robert is a very commmon name in the Dunbar line, particularly in the 16th and 17th centuries." For the record, here is the erroneous information concerning Robert Dunbar: "Dunbar: Robert Dunbar, immigrant ancestor, was b. in Scotland, 1630. Name is believed to be derived from the ancient Scottish city of the same name. It is also a general belief in the family that he was a descendant of George Earl Dunbar in the regular line." Ninian Dunbar, founder of Grange Hill, had a son, Robert, supposed to have been Robert the immigrant who married Rose____, and in 1655 settled in Hingham, MA. It was the general opinion that he brought with him considerable sum of money to begin life in the new country, inasmuch as for years there were but two men in the town who paid a higher tax than he. {-"Gen. and Fam. History of the State of Connecticut in Four Volumes," New York: Lewis Historical Pub. Co., 1911, II:788, which also gives Robert's death date as 5 Oct 1693; the Hingham, MA History, Vol. 2, publ'd by the town in 1893, gives his death date as 19 Sept 1693 and reports that his will is dated 13 Sept 1693.} Robert resided on Scotland Street in Hingham.

Among the papers of the Suffolk County Superior Court is a case heard in 1659 between the administrator of Mr. Joshua Foote's estate and Ferdinando Thayer. Within these papers is the following deposition:

Charles Franklin Dunbar (1830-1900), a descendant in the fifth generation and an active member of the Massachusetts Historical Society, spent much time both in this country and Scotland attempting to find Robert's parents. Others, including myself ( Chaplin, Ann Theopold , C.G. ), have done the same.

Eliot's Tribute to Charles Franklin Dunbar, which appeared in the February 1900 issue of the Proceedings of the Massachusetts Historical Society, pages 428-442, states that: "By a series of careful investigations Charles Franklin Dunbar established the strong probability that this Robert Dunbar who was held to the service of Joshua Foote for a term of years as early as 1655, and possibly as early as 1652, was one of Cromwell's Scottish prisoners taken at the Battle of Dunbar in 1650 , or at the Battle of Worcester in 1651.

The Saugus Iron Works, now a National Monument, displays a plaque upon which are the words:
A list of Scots at the Lynn Ironworks in 1651, taken from the George S. Stewart manuscript collection at the New England Historic and Genealogical Society, comprises 43 names, among which is that of Robert Dunbar.

According to a Parliamentary History of England , pages 341-342, mentioned in Mr. Stewart's manuscript, five thousand prisoners were sent down to Durham and Newcastle by way of Berwick and entrusted to the care of Sir Arthur Hesilrigge. The Council at London was considering what to do with these prisoners of war who could not safely be released. As the Colonists, especially as laborers, were greatly needed in New England, Virginia, and the West Indies, the decision was quickly made. There was an order in Council, September 19, 1650, only sixteen days after the battle. "to write Sir Arthur Hesilrigge to deliver to Samuel Clarke, for transportation to Virginia, 900 Scotch prisoners, and 150 more for New England, to be sent there by Joshua Foote and John Bex, but they are to be such as are well and sound and free from wounds; letters to be prepared to Sir Arthur Hessilrigge according to such desires as shall be made by any who will carry them to plantations not in enmity with the Commonwealth" (Mary Anne Everett Greene, ed., Calendar of State Papers, Domestic Series, 1650 , London, 1876, 346). A subsequent Order in Council of October 23, 1650 stated "The Admiralty Committee to examine whether the Scotch prisoners now come and coming into the river (Thames) are carried to places where they may be made of use against the commonwealth, and stay to be made of all, until assurance be given of their not being carried where they may be dangerous; the proportion for New England to be shipped forthwith as they ship is ready and the place is without danger" ( ibid. 397). Here we have mention of a shipload of prisoners about to be sent to New England. Nothing definite has been learned about this company, although the number of Scotsmen found in New England soon after indicates that other Scot prisoners may have been sent to Boston besides those who came in the ship Unity and a year later in the ship John and Sara.
As no record of Rose (____) Dunbar seems to appear in Massachusetts Bay Colony records, other than her death at Hingham, could it be possible that they were married in Scotland and that Robert "sent home to Scotland" for her and requested her to bring funds when she came?

Roberts' Will, dated September 13, 1693 and signed in the presence of Enoch Wilton, Thomas Wilton and Thomas Garner names his wife Rose ans sons John, Joseph, Peter and Joshua. Also named is "the son of my son James, deceased", as well as three daughters, Mary, Sarah, and Hannah.

From: "Barbara Jones" (b.j.jones@worldnet.att.net) 20 Jul 1998: "I was considering the thought of Robert returning to Scotland to be knighted. As I was doing this it occured to me that as a Cromwellian prisoner he would have supported the Stewarts who may have been reinstuted by then. Charles II immediately rewarded those who had supported the house of Stewart after he was crowned. I looked it up and discovered that he was crowned in 1660, the same year Robert was knighted. Cromwell would have stripped Robert of his lands and holdings and given them to someone loyal to him, as was the common practice of the time. It only makes sense that Robert would have returned to Scotland when the dynasty he fought for had returned to power. Certainly this would be preferable to remaining in servitude in a strange land, away from his family and kin. He likely knew that Charles Stewart would reward his supporters and reinstitute their lands and wealth, and certainly would have felt a desire to return to his beloved Scotland. In fact it was quite common throughout the history of Jacobitism (support of the house of Stewart) for Jacobites to return from exile in other lands to be rewarded when the Stewarts would return to power. This is a witness to the great connection the Scots feel with the land of their forefathers. This would explain Robert returning to Scotland and being knighted and then returning again to the New World with substantial wealth. These events may seem strange at first, but are actually quite in accordance with Scottish history at that time. Exiles returning from far off lands and prominent individuals experiencing dramatic changes of fortune, depending on who was in power and who they had supported, is common in the history of Scotland. I noticed that Robert Dunbar's great grandmother is from the Clan Rose. The thought occurs to me that Rose may be Robert's wife's maiden name. This would follow the common pattern of the the time, of nobility marrying among their own extended family. This was also the common practice of the Scottish Clans."

"Surnames of the United Kingdom," Henry Harrison (Baltimore: Gen. pub. Co, 1969), I:124, reports that the surname Dunbar = "Belonging to Dunbar," which is the Fort of the Summit [Gaelic "dun" is a fort, "barr" is the high point].

Concerning Dunbar Ancestry.com offers: "Scottish: habitational name from Dunbar, a place on the North Sea coast near Edinburgh, named with Gaelic dùn 'fort' + barr 'top', 'summit'."
