pg 22; Gen of May Fam, Vol 1, pg 130)
From the Gen of May Fam, Vol 2, pg 36-37,
the following is notedied The will of Samuel
Swift, dated at Sandwich 18 Oct 1756 and
presented for probate 3 Jan 1758, gives: "to
my grand son Joshua Gibbs fourty pounds
lawfull money" to be paid out of the
personal estate by the executor. The
testator gives also "to my said three
daughter, Mary Nye, Joan Barlow and Lydia
Swift and to my grand son Joshua Gibbs and
their heirs" the rest of the personal estate
and he directs "that in case my said grand
son Joshua Gibbs dye before he comes to age"
his portion is to "be equally divided
between my three daughters"
We come now to the problem of furnishing
what we believe to be conclusive proof as to
the identity of Rebecca Swift, the first
wife of Joshua Gibbs.
The Sandwich town records 9 April 1725 show
the birth of a daughter Joanna to Samuel and
Ruth (Hatch) Swift. Their next child was a
daughter recorded as Joan. We suspect that
the town clerk may have made an error here -
writing Joanna when he intended to write
Rebecca. The age at death of Rebecca (Swift)
Gibbs would suggest such an explanation. It
will be noted that the children of Joshua
and Rebecca Gibbs were proved to be
grandchildren of Samuel Swift, and the age
at death of Rebecca would seem to be direct
evidence that she was either the child
"Joanna" or her twin sister.
Eben Swift in his William Swift & His
Descendants to the Sixth Generation, 1912
(Library of Cape Cod History and Genealogy,
no. 15, p. 31), believed that the "daughter
Joan Barlow" named in Samuel Swift's will
had married Benjamin Gibbs, Jr. (see #58),
and that upon his death she married,
socondly, 9 Feb 1748/9 Nathan Barlow of
Falmouth. Other printed accounts have
followed this hypothesis. However, there can
be no shadow of doubt that this
identification is not correct. In the first
place Joan (Swift) Gibbs, widow of Benjamin
Gibbs, Jr., died his widow in Sandwich in
1794 aged 71. She was a daughter of Josiah
Swift. In the second place, since Eben Swift
evidently did not have access to the Wareham
Church records he did not know of the
existence of the Rebecca Swift who married
Joshua Gibbs, nor did he find the baptismal
records of the three children: Mercy, 4
March 1749/50, Joshua, 22 March 1752 and
Rebecca, 17 Aug 1754, all clearly designated
as the children of "Joshua Gibbs Junr. and
Rebecca." Thirdly, it is clear that is was
the intention of Samuel Swift to divide the
personal property equally between his three
surviving daughters and the single surviving
child of a fourth (deceased) daughter. If
the testator had intended that his "daughter
Joan Barlow" should have in effect a double
share, one for herself and one for her son
by Gibbs, as alleged, he would almost
certainly have found it necessary to refer
to this inequity; on the contrary he directs
that the division be made equally among his
daughters. Fourthly we can find no record in
Sandwich, Wareham, Falmouth or elsewhere, of
a marriage of a widow Gibbs or a Joan or
Joanna Gibbs to Nathan Barlow.
There remains a separate but related problem
here. The Sandwich town records show the
marriage of Nathan Barlow on 9 Feb 1748/9
but the name of the bride does not appear in
the copy in the Sandwich town hall. Other
evidence suggests that she was Joan Swift,
the daughter called "Joan Barlow" in the
above will of Samuel Swift.
Per the Swift Gen, pg 22, and Barlow Gen, pg
58, Joan had the following:
By her first marriage:
i Joshua Gibbs
