Notes from The Gorham Family by Gerald J. Parsons
Captain John Gorham, who came to Plymouth Colony before Dec 1638, wasborn about 1621, in England, and died in service in King Philip's War.Of the early life of John Gorham little is known, nor is it known whenhe came to New England. He had land granted to him in Plymouth, MA on18 Dec 1638. By 1646 he had removed to Marshfield and on 7 Jun 1650,was chosen constable for that town. At the same time he was propoundedfor a freeman of the Colony and 4 Jun 1650, was admitted. In 1651, andagain in 1671, he was a member of the Grand Inquest of the Colony.About 1635 John Gorham removed to Yarmouth and by 1656 to Barnstable,but returned to Yarmouth shortly before his death.
John Gorham was a Deputy from Yarmouth to the Plymouth Colony Court atthe special session of 6 Apr 1653, and the following year (6 Jun 1654)he was chosen surveyor of highways for the Town of Yarmouth. In 1673and 1674 he was a member of the Board of Selectmen of the Town ofBarnstable, and in the former year he received the appointment oflieutenant of the Plymouth forces in he Dutch War. On Oct 1675, JohnGorham was appointed by the court captain of the second company forcesin King Philip's War. Capt. Gorham and his company were in thesanguinary battle, known as the Great Swamp Fight, fought 19 Dec 1675,at the Swamp Fort in the Narragansett country of Rhode Island. Thatbattle was decisive in it's results, for it not only crushed the powerof the Narragansetts, but it also destroyed the hope of King Philipand his allies of exterminating the English in New England. CaptainGorham never recovered from the cold and fatigue to which he wasexposed on this expedition. He was seized with a fever and died atSwansea where he was buried 5 Feb 1675/76.
