SOURCE: Article from the "New England Historical & Genealogical Register - July 1965," by Read H. Putnam of Evanston, Wyoming. PRISCILLA GOULD For many years those interested in the distinguished and widely spread family of PUTNAM, descended from JOHN PUTNAM, who came from Aston Abbots, Co. Bucks, England, to Salem, Mass., in the fourth decade of the 17th century, have sought in vain for the maiden name of his wife PRISCILLA, the mother of his children..... Over the past several years Mr. A. Vere Woodman, F.S.A., noted antiquarian and descendant of the Putnams of Wing, Co. Bucks., England, has made an exhaustive search.... He discovered that the name PRISCILLA was very much in evidence among the GOULDS, a family long settled in Bovingdon midway between Hemel Hempstead and Chesham. The will of JOHN GOULD of Bovington, dated and proven in 1602, mentions among other children his daughters REBECCA and PRISCILLA. His eldest son, NATHAN GOULD of Tring, Co. Herts., whose will was dated and proved 1611/12, mentions his brother JEREMY's daughters SARA and PRISCILLA, both under 18 yrs. of age, and his sister PRISCILLA GROVER's two children, JOHN and PRISCILLA. He makes his cousin JEREMY GOULD an overseer. This cousin was probably identical with JEREMY, son of RICHARD GOULD of Bovingdon(ton), deceased, who married in Chesham, 27 Nov. 1604, PRISCILLA, daughter of WILLIAM and MARGARET GROVER of Codmore. PRISCILLA GROVER was baptized in Chesham 3 June 1582. The baptism of a son HENRY GOULD, 12 July 1631, son of JEREMY and PRISCILLA GOULD, is recorded in Aston Abbots, where JEREMY may have been dwelling for a time with, or near, JOHN PUTNAM. These facts suggest that RICHARD GOULD of Bovington may have had a daughter or daughters in addition to the sons mentioned the known works of this family. But since the early register of Bovingdon has disappeared and RICHARD GOULD's will has not been found this was a matter of conjecture until the recent discovery of the following case concerning the administration of RICHARD GOULD's estate in the records of the Archdeaconry of Huntingdon (Act Book, II, pg. 62.) "Court held in Baldock Parish church 25th May 1597. The Lords official against ELIZABETH GOULDE, widow of Bovingdon, administratrix of the goods of RICHARD GOULDE of the same, deceased, in a matter of the account. "The citation is issued,.... and on the 5th May 1597 a Notary Public appeared and exhibited his proxy in writing for the said ELIZABETH and took his oath. At whose petition the Lord (Judge) decreed that SARA and PRISCILLA GOULD of Bovingdon, the natural and lawful daughters of the deceased in particular be cited to be at the next court.... to be in the parish church of Bovingdon to see the account of said ELIZABETH exhibited......" The matter was finally settled at the court held in the parish church of Berkhamstead St. Peter, 1 July 1597, when the account was presented. In view of the above discovery there can be no doubt that PRISCILLA, wife of JOHN PUTNAM, was the daughter of RICHARD GOULD of Bovingdon, and sister of ZACCHEUS GOULD.
