SHURTLEFF, WILLIAM-The name Shurtleff has been spelled many ways, and on
2 September 1634 "William Shetle hath put himselfe an aprentise to Thomas
Clarke for the terme of eleven yeares from the 16 of May last" (PCR
1:31). On 5 June 1644 William Shertcliffe was fined fiveshillings for
breaking the peace on John Smyth (PCR 2:73), and on 2 October 1650 James
Cole was presented for making a battery on Shirtleff, but was cleared
(PCR 2:162). Shurtleff was a surveyor of the highway for Plymouth and a
member of a coroner's jury in 1656 (PCR 3:100, 109). In 1659 he had a
dispute with Thomas Pope about the bounds of their respective lands at
Strawberry Hill, or the Reed Pond, in Plymouth township (PCR 3:169). On
7 June 1659 he was proposed as a freeman, and on the same day he was
chosen as constable of Plymouth (PCR 3:163). On 27 March 1660 he sold an
acre of land in Doten's Meadow, Plymouth, to Gabriel Fallowell, and at
that time Shurtleff was described as a resident of Marshfield (MD
14:145). On 6 June 1660 he became a freeman (PCR 3:188). In 1662 he was
one of the servants and ancient freemen given land at Saconett (PCR
4:18). In 1664/65 he complained against Thomas Little for taking away
timber trees from his land (PCR 4:79). In 1666 the court ordered that he
"be accommodated with land amongst the servants neare unto the Bay line"
(PCR 4:131). On 18 October 1655 William Shurtleff married Elizabeth
Lettice (PCR 8:17), daughter of Thomas Lettice. He died in 1666 and was
buried on 24 June 1666, having been killed by lightning (MSR, p. 248; see
documentation in Shurtleff book below, 2:1064). His widow married (2)
Jacob Cooke 18 November 1669 (PCR 8:32), and she was in her father's will
dated 1678 as Elizabeth Cooke, widow (MD 14:64). She married (3) Hugh
Cole on 1 January 1688/89 (MD 13:204). A fuu-size family history is
Benjamin Shurtleff, Descendants of William Shurtleff of Plymouth and
Marshfield, Massachusetts, 2 vols. (Revere, 1912; 2nd ed. San Francisco,
1976), which is not sufficiently documented and contains a number of
errors (for correction of one major error, see Eugene A. Stratton, "Mary,
Wife of Nathaniel Atwood," MQ 48:127). In the first edition, Benjamin
Shurtleff has the immigrant William Shurtleff most likely identical with
a William Shurtleff said to have been baptized at Hallamshire,
Ecclesfield, West Riding, Yorkshire, on 16 May 1624. However, in the
second edition, Roy Lothrop Shurtleff states that after extensive
checking he was not able to confirm the identification, and must conclude
that it is not yet possible to go further back than the immigrant
William. William was known to have had three sons, William, Thomas, and
Abiel, and has many descendants todav through William and Abiel,

William was killed when struck by lightning in the home of Mr. John
Phillips on the 23rd day of June, in the year 1666. During a thunder
storm, a bolt of lightning killed Mrs. Phillips, her son, and William
Shurtleff. At the time he was stuck, William had a child in hand and was
holding his wife in the other. Both of the others escaped, but he was
struck dead. There were 14 persons in the house at the time of the
incident. One of the survivors wrote: "The woman of the house calling
earnestly to shut the door which was done, instantly a terrible clap of
thunder fell upon the house & rent the chimney & split the door in many
places & struck most of the persons if not all. Timothy Rogers
told me that when he came to himself he saw the house full of smoke &
there was a terrible smell of brimstone
