1. IMPORTANT UPDATE! (July 2018)
According to, Christopher Gerrard, Pam Graves, Andrew Millard, Richard Annis, and Anwen Caffell, in, Lost Lives, New Voices: Unlocking the Stories of the Scottish Soldiers at the Battle of Dunbar 1650, (England: Oxbow Books, 2018), on page 253, Daniel is categorized as: Possible [that he is a Dunbar prisoner transported on the Unity] Ferguson, Daniel. Residences: South Berwick, Upper Eliot ME. Appears: 1659. B.c.1633. D.1676. Lived with other Scots in York County, ME, but possibly attested in the South Berwick town records of 1650, which raises doubts as to whether he was a prisoner.

If Daniel is in South Berwick in 1650, and the Unity just landed in December 1650 then he must have arrived from late December 1650 to the end of February 1650 (Old Colonial Calendar).

IMPORTANT UPDATE!
According to:
Christopher Gerrard, Pam Graves, Andrew Millard, Richard Annis, and Anwen Caffell, Lost Lives, New Voices: Unlocking the Stories of the Scottish Soldiers at the Battle of Dunbar 1650, (England: Oxbow Books, 2018),2 on page 251, Alexander is categorized as:

First Generation in the New World

1. ALEXANDER¹ MAXWELL, was presumably born in Scotland and died in York County, Maine between 27 June 1707 and 8 Oct 1707. His Will was dated 15 May 1707 and probate was 8 Oct 1707. (SEE IMAGE ON PAGE 2)8 9  He married (1) by 6 Sept 1671 to ANNIS/ANNES/ANNIE (FROST),10  who died between 3 Aug 1704 and 15 May 1707, dau. of  John (son of George) and Rose (______) Frost; and (2) in 1707 to SARAH (PENNEWELL), married by Capt. Preble.  11 

Biographical Notes:
Alexander Maxwell first appears as a servant to George Leader at the Great Works in York County, Maine in 1654. “Maxwell was flogged in court in 1654 “for his grosse offence in his exorbitant and abusive carages towards his master, Mr George Leader.”1213 The order by the County Court of York, dated 29 June 1654, reads “Itt is ordered that Allexander Maxell for his grosse offence in his exorbitant & abusive carages towards his Maister Mr. George Leader & his Mistresse…as by evidence doth appeare shall bee…publiquely brought forth to the Whipping Post whereunto hee…shall bee…fastened till 30 lashes bee…given him upon the bare skine. The sayd Maxell is here by injoyned to give full satisfaction to his aforesd Maister for the expence of tyme & dyett dureing the tyme of his imprisonment with other charges amounting to the valew of seaven pounds, 10s, And in case that Maxell do att any tyme for the future misbehave him selfe towards his Maister George Leader that then his sayd Maister hath full Lyberty to make sayle of the sayd Maxell to Virginia, Barbadoes, or any other of the English Plantations.”14

Later it is noted, “When Leader left Great Works, in 1655, his Scotch employees or apprentices, received grants of land from the town. The following had grants in 1656, James WarrenJohn Taylor, and Alexander Maxwell.”12 He buys land from Thomas Moulton/Molton on 20 Jan 1657. The land is described as “10 acres of meadow on the northwest branch, of Thomas Moulton.” He also owed 70 acres (perhaps the land he was granted in 1656) “up the river of York adjoining to a parcel of Arthur Bragdons…”15 On 7 Sept 1662, Nathan Lord purchased from John Neale/Neal “twenty-five acres of land and a house, on the northeast side of the Piscataqua river, one-half of the estate bought of Alexander Maxwell of York, by the said Neal and lying near Whites marsh.”16 His land is also mentioned in Old Kittery and her families, “Alexander Maxell received his grant of land the same day as Warren [SPOW James Warren]. Maxell settled in York and sold this grant to John Neal, who in 1662 sold twenty-five acres of it to Nathan Lord.”17 Alexander Maxwell “made a deed of gift to his brother in law, John Frost, 2 Nov. 1678, of certain land in York. With wife Annis sold land 24 March, 1680-1.”18

On 3 Aug 1704, Alexander Maxwell and his wife, Annis, in York, signed a deed of exchange. “In consideration of a certain piece or parcel of Salt Marsh And point of upland Lying on the Southwest branch of York river Secured to said Maxell by Peter Nowell of the Town and County aforesaid by a Deed bearing Date this day… near the head of the North west branch of York river and is well known by the name of Mauls fresh Marsh. And is by Estimation five Acres be it more or less And is bounded by Said Nowells Land and John Linscots land on the Southeast and Southward Sides And by James Grants Marsh on the Southwestward… (note that in this document Alexander Maxwell’s name is also written as Maxell and his wife’s name is given as Annis and Annes.)19 At the date of deed, 3 Aug 1704, Alexander Maxwell’s wife Annis/Annes was living. 

On 27 June 1707, Alexander Maxwell [spelled Maxell] and his second wife, Sarah (Pennewell) signed a deed of sale transferring land to John Mackentier [McIntire, maybe a son of Micum], farmer, of York. The parcel of land is described as “lying between the high way that goeth from York to Barwick by Estimation three Acres and is bounded by the lands of John Mackentier on the Southwest and on the Southeast by the orchard or garden of said Maxell where the Garrison now stands and as that fence now runs And is bounded Northerly by the high way or woods aboved And on the Norwest by the land known by the name of Clarks Farm this land thus bounded…”19 This document has been signed by Sarah Maxell who uses a totally different mark than his previous wife, Annis/Annes.

In his Will, dated 15 May 1707, he bequeaths all his land and belongings to his wife named as Sarah until her death. One can assume that the death date for Annis/Anne was between 3 Aug 1704 and 15 May 1707. Alexander Maxwell’s date of death would fall between the date of this deed being signed on 27 June 1707 and the date of his Will probate on 8 Oct 1707. He bequeathed the land and marshes after the death of his wife Sarah, for a Mr. Moody to have 1/2 and the church the use of the other 1/2. He and his first wife, Annis/Annes may have had  surviving children even though they were not mentioned in his Will and there has been other no source documentation.2021

First Generation in the New World

1. ALEXANDER¹ COOPER, aka SANDER COOPER, was born probably about 1625, in Scotland and died at Berwick, Maine between 9 Feb 1683 (date of will) and 28 Feb 1684, probate (suggested date of 11 Nov 1683)10 He married at Berwick, Maine, by 1654, (_____).1112

Biographical Notes:
Alexander¹ Cooper worked as an indentured servant at the sawmills in Kittery, Maine and is referred to as “Sander Cooper” in Court records in 1662. “His family should be carefully distinguished from that of “Phillip Cooper the Walloon,” who had a grant of land in York, in 1673.”13 Alexander¹ was an acquaintance and friend of SPOWs: James Warren, George Gray and Peter Grant, which is shown by their mention in Alexander¹ Cooper’s Will and his leaving the care of his only son, John² Cooper, “…unto my Loueing freinds…” (SEE IMAGE ON PAGE 2)14 On 9 July 1662, John Neale, a SPOW from the Town of Kittery, sold land (a portion of which he had previously bought 15 July 1656 from another SPOW, Alexander Maxwell, that just so happened to lay on the Northside of James Warren’s lot), to Alexander¹ Cooper, also of the Town of Kittery. The 25 acres were located on the Northeast side of Pischataqua River, “…being neare a place Commanly Called by the name of Whittes Marsh…”15 Later, it is recorded, “that the selectmen and inhabitants of the parish of Unity, on the 13th of April, 1671, granted sixty acres of land to Alexander Cooper, and as many more to George Gray, by virtue of a general act of the town, made the 24th of June last past.”16 Alexander¹ Cooper’s land grant location was on the brook coming out of Wilcox pond in Berwick. There is also indications that these Scots did not adapt to the norms and values of the mainstream inhabitants. “In 1669, the York County Court admonished Sander [Alexander] and his wife, as well as John Taylor and several other Scotsmen, [Including SPOW James Warren] “for using profane speeches” and referring to the “divell” in their “common talk.” A few years later, Sander’s daughter Sarah married Scotsman George Gray, who paid his young wife’s fine “for breach of sabboth & for strikeing of Patience Everington.””17

Biographical Notes:
In Alexander¹ Cooper’s Will, he states that John² was his ONLY SON, aged sixteen years at the writing of the will on 9 Feb 1683. John’s own Will was dated 13 May 1759.14 John is listed amongst others affected by the “…ravages of the Indians in the first year of Queen Anne’s War…” There was a petition sent to General Court requesting an abatement of the 1704 taxes because the people just could not raise the money. “The Court resolved, “that the Sum of Thirty-eight pounds be abated to the poor of the town of Kittery.”” The individual amounts were to be determined by the Kittery Selectmen based upon them knowing who “…have met with most sufferings by the Heathen.” John Cooper received an abatement in the amount of 7 s. It is worth noting that his mother-in-law, referred to on this list as “Widdow Martha Lord,” received an abatement in the amount of 8 s.29
