This site is a repository of information resources for those interested in the history and genealogy of persons descended from John and Margaret (Acres) Rathbun, who decamped from Lancashire (Ditton, to be precise) to settle in North America around the year 1654.  A large majority of people bearing the surnames Rathbun, Rathbone and Rathburn are descended from this couple, who made their home on Block Island in the Rhode Island colony.

Family/Spouse: Thomas Rathbone/Mary Dickens

Thomas Rathbone

need help with the descendency and dated of about seven generations here. This is mostly what I am finding, but am not sure everyone agrees. I. Thomas Burch, b. abt 1617 Topham, Devonshire, England d. 8 may 1657 Dorchester Suffolk Co. MA (possibly s/o George b. 1562?)

HUSBAND: [F530]. Jonathan BURCH. (BURCH-S5)(BURTCH-S?)(BIRCH-S8,S10).  Born about (1674-5-S7) (1686-S2) at Stonington, New London County, Connecticut; son of (Jonathan BURCH (BIRCH) [F1060].) or (Son of Jeremiah BIRCH-S4,S5,S7). [His birth is not recorded at Stonington, so it is difficult to determine his correct parents. These two, Jonathan and Jeremiah are brothers, both the sons of Thomas BURCH [F2120], and both were at Stonington, so the line will continue in any case with Thomas.]. He married Marcy RATHBUN [F531] on 22 AUG 1706 at Stonington, New London, Connecticut. (S6,S10). They were married by Nehemiah Palmer, J.P. (S6). Jonathan apparently moved later in life to Dutchess County, New York where his son and daughter lived. He probably also died there.  WIFE: [F531]. Marcy RATHBUN.
