BOYNTON, HELEN AUGUSTA MASON (Mrs. Henry V. Boynton), one of the three Founders of the National Society of Daughters of Founders and Patriots of America, was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. She is a daughter of Timothy Battelle MASON and of his second wife, Abigail Hall. The latter, who was born in 1800 and died in 1875, was a kinswoman of her husband, being sixth in descent from Robert Mason, the first settler of that name in America, and her husband's ancestor. This Robert Mason was born in England in 1590, and first settled in Roxbury, Massachusetts. He removed to Dedham before November, 1639, and was a member of the Town Council there from 1640 to 1642-1643. His wife died at Roxbury in April, 1637, and he himself died in 1667. Their son, Thomas Mason, about 1650, came with his father to Dedham, as one of its first settlers. He was one of the signers of the Medford Memorial to the General Assembly in 1664 and subscribed towards the building of Harvard College, Cambridge. On April 23, 1653, he married Margery Partridge of Dedham, who was descended from Richard de Pertriche of Wishangen Manor, Gloucestershire, England. Thomas Mason, with two of his sons, was killed during an Indian attack on Medfield in 1676 during King Philip's War. His youngest son, Ebenezer, who was born in 1669, escaped and was the only male to carry on the name. He married on April 25, 1691, Hannah, the daughter of Benjamin Clark of Medfield, and granddaughter of Joseph Clark, a settler of Dedham, and one of the thirteen founders of Medfield. She was born in 1666 and died in 1757. Ebenezer Mason was a quartermaster in 1716, and a representative to the General Assembly in 1730. He died in 1754. His son Thomas, who was born in 1699 and died in 1789, married Mary Arnold (1703-1798), a granddaughter of Doctor Return Johnson, the first physician of Medfield. Their son, Barachias, who was born in 1723 and died in 1795, graduated from Harvard at the age of nineteen. He was a surveyor, and in 1775 made plans (which are still preserved in the town records) for the town of Natick. As he was fifty-three years of age when the Revolution started, his active services were declined, but he gave his grounds for the training of the first company organized in Medfield, and recruited a company of Minute Men. His wife, Love Whitney (1727-1801), the widow of Jonathan Battelle, was the daughter of Mark Whitney of Hopkinton. Her ancestry is illustrious, insomuch as it can be traced to the royal houses of France and England. Their son, Johnson Mason (1767-1856), held many civil offices, and was captain of militia in 1800 and colonel in 1803. His wife, Caty Hartshorn (1768-1852), was a descendant of Henry Adams and Samuel Smith. Johnson and Caty Mason's son, Timothy Battelle Mason, was born in 1801, and died in 1861. His wife, Abigail Hall, was descended from Francis Hall of Henborough, England, whose son [p.230] Edward, with his wife, Hester, settled in Braintree, Massachusetts, before 1640. He served in 1645 in the Narragansett expedition, and died in 1670. His son Andrew (1665-1756) married Susanna Capen (1664-1736). Their son, Deacon John Hall (1695-1791), married Hopestill Ockington, who died in 1788. Their son Josiah (1723-1786), who held many responsible positions in his community, and who subscribed to the soldier's pay fund, married Abigail Brown (1728-1775). Their son, Captain Samuel Hall of Newton, Massachusetts (1757-1828), served in Captain Jeremiah Wiswell's company in the Revolution. His wife, Sarah Cheney (1758-1842), was a descendant of the Crusader, Alexander de Hoo, buried at Rhodes, and of Alfred the Great, Charlemagne, and Alexander II of Scotland. Their daughter was Abigail Hall Mason.
