Docketed "Patent Saco: east of the river". Bifolium. Usual folds minor separations two repaired. 4pp. Clerically signed Robert Warwick and Edward Gorges above an additional reaffirmation of grant dated June 1631 clerically countersigned by Thomas Wiggin James Parker James Watts and George Donglan. Docketed "Patent Saco: east of the river". Bifolium. In 1629 less than a decade after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock the Council of New England an English joint stock company founded to establish colonial settlements in America issued a series of grants subdividing their royal charter that had ceded to them all land between "degrees 34 and 44" from sea to sea. These grants were important being among the earliest grants independently issued within the colonies. The present grant is of particular note for the history of Maine being the grant made to Thomas Lewis and Captain Richard Bonython for the land north of the Swanckadocke River i.e. the Saco River. The text of the grant reads in part: ".Whereas King James of famous memory late King of England Scotland France and Ireland by his Highness' letters patent and royal grant under the great seal of England bearing date the third day of November in the eighteenth year of his reign of England France and Ireland etc. for the causes therein expressed did absolutely give grant and confirm to the said Council for the affairs of New England in America and their successors forever all the land of New England lying and being from forty to forty-eight degrees of northerly latitude and in length by all that breadth aforesaid from sea to sea throughout the main land . that the said council for the affairs of New England in America as well for and in consideration that Thomas Lewis Gentleman has already been at the charge to transport himself and others to take a view of New England in America aforesaid for the bettering of his experience in advancing of a plantation and does now wholly intend by God's assistance with his associates to plant there both for the good of his Majesty's realms and dominions and for the propagation of Christian religion among those infidels and in consideration also that the said Thomas Lewis together with Captain Richard Bonighton and also with their associates and company have undertaken at their own proper costs and charges to transport fifty persons there within seven years next ensuing to plant and inhabit there to the advancement of the general plantation of that country and the strength and safety thereof among the natives or any other invaders also for the encouragement of the said Thomas Lewis and Captain Richard Bonighton and other considerations the said council thereunto moving have given granted enfeoffed and confirmed and by this present writing do fully clearly and absolutely give grant enfeof and confirm to the said Thomas Lewis and Captain Richard Bonighton their heirs and assigns for ever all that part of the main land in New England in America aforesaid commonly called or known by the name of Swanckadocke or by whatsoever other name or names the same is or shall be hereafter called or known by situated lying and being between the cape or bay commonly called Cape Elizabeth and the cape or bay commonly called Cape Porpoise containing in breadth from northeast to southwest along by the sea four miles in a straight line or accounting seventeen hundred and three score yards according to the standard of England to every mile and eight English miles upon the main land on the north side of the river Swanckadock after the same rate from the sea through all the breadth aforesaid ." The original vellum grant with seals is located in the archives of the Maine Historical Society. The present example is one of several extant early manuscript copies made during the subsequent conflicts and competing claims between the crown Massachusetts and Maine. In 1652 commissioners were appointed to determine the correct boundary between Massachusetts and several of the early patents with the former gradually extending their claim northward. In 1653 the settlers of Saco and other parts of Maine yielded to Massachusetts and the region was renamed Yorkshire or County of York. In 1664 after the Restoration the region was restored as an independent province but much of the region sold back to Massachusetts in 1678. After the charter of Massachusetts was annulled in 1684 and James II ascended to the crown in 1685 the region was once again assigned as part of the Province of Massachusetts Bay. Maine would remain part of Massachusetts until the final separation in 1820. The present undated copy likely dates from the period circa 1664 when a royal commission consisting of Richard Nicolls Sir Robert Carre George Cartwright and Samuel Maverick was sent to oversee the government of the colonies in New England. However it could also date as late as the period from the 1680s when Sir Edmund Andros became the Commissioner for the Dominion of New England.
