Daniel Goble
-
Name Daniel Goble Birth 21 May 1669 Concord, Middlesex County, Massachusetts
Gender Male Death Abt 1733 Morristown, Morris County, New Jersey
Notes - Daniel was only seven years old on 26 Sep 1676 when his father, Daniel Goble, was hung for killing Indians, probably to "seal" a peace treaty with the Indians. During his last visit with his father in the Boston prison, he probably knew it was his last visit. Surely the neighborhood children made fun of him and called him names after the even; perhaps some of the other families refused to associate with Daniel's family after that. On 20 Nov 1677, his widowed mother remarried to Ephraim Roper. Ephraim's wife, Priscilla, and 3-year-old daughter, Priscilla, and possibly his brother, John Roper, had been killed in the Indian massacre of 22 Aug 1675 at Lancaster, Wincester County, Massachusetts.
After that, Lancaster was abandoned until its resettlement four years later by Daniel's and the other original families. Daniel was 12 years old.
On 18 Jul 1692 there was a second Indian massacre. Daniel David was 23 years old. Daniel and Sarah's first son, Thomas, was born in 1697.
On 11 Sep 1697, Daniel's mother, Hannah Brewer Goble Roper, his 14-year-old half-sister, Elizabeth Roper, and his step-father, Ephraim Roper, were killed in the third Indian massacre of Lancaster.
