[Savage]

Thomas Makepeace came from either London or Bristol about 1635. He lived in Dorchester and in Boston. None of the early records show from what part of England Thomas Makepeace came, except since he was part of the Dover Patent, it is assumed that he came from Bristol.
In, 1637, soon after his arrival in Boston from England, Thomas Makepeace was granted "... a house plot and garden place." with location given as "... bounded with Jeremy Houtchin, Southeast; William Wilson, South; the street, Westerly; and the lane, Northerly." It was ..." in Hanover Street, near Court Street, and probably not as far from where Concert Hall now (1857) is..." It was near the "Market Stead" where the first "Meeting House" was built and where the Brazier Building stood in 1896. He was an original member of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company and was "... a person of some consequence and of considerable wealth". He acquired property in 1638 at Muddy River (Brookline), "in the Islands", and in 1641, 200 acres in Dorchester. The History of Dorchester, says that Thomas Makepeace was of a liberal view as regards to religion for in 1638 he was involved in a squabble and his detractors wrote, "we are were weary of him unless he reformed". In 1641, with other owners, he contributed"... the whole of rents and profits of Thompson's Island to the town of Dorchester for the support of a free school."
His will dated Boston, 30 June, 1666, is on record in the Probate Office in Boston. Extracts of his will: To Thomas, "mine eldest sonne (beyond the seas) and to his heirs forever, the debt of fifty pounds, which he oweth mee (for which end I have torne off the seals of his bill) and no more, because I have given him his portion foremally, viz ye house and land in England (he being the heyre to it) wich he hath long possessed. ! NOTE: It is possible that Thomas is the son of his first wife) To Hannah "Unto Hannah, mine eldest daughter, the wife of Stephen Hopkins, of Thomas's Island and to her heyres forever, five pounds, to be payed her, or her order, within one year after my death." also, "unto my grandchildren, Delieurance, John, Stephen, Hannah, Sarah, Thomas, Opportunity, Joseph, and Benjamin Hopkis (they being the nine children of my daughter Hannah, wife of Stephen Hopkin, above sayed) to each ten pounds, which sayed legacies the males shall receive as they come to the age of twenty- one,the females at eighteen or the day of marriage, which shall happen first, with this exception relating to Stephen only, that if my executors shall, when he comes to twenty-one years of age, find him to persist on in his wild and wastful courses, then they shall pay him (of his legacy of ten pounds) only ten shillings per annum till he be well reformed, and then, and not before, they shall pay him the residue he hath not received of the stated tenne pounds." To Mary "Unto my daughter Mary, wife of Lawrence Willis of Boston, that house in Boston, wherein she with her said husband now dwells, during her life only, and at her death, her brother, William, shall have ye same. Also unto my daughter Mary, and to her heyres forever one debt owing to me from Jim Willis of Bridgewater, senior, and also one debt due to me from his sonne, Jim Willis, of ye same towne aforesaid, Junior." To Esther " unto my daughter, Hester, ye wife of John Brown, of Marlborough, and to her heyres forever, five pounds, to be paid in one year after my decease, also to her heyres, ye debt her said husband owes me." ... also "unto my grandchildren, vis, to Elizabeth, Joseph, Sarah, Mary and John Brown, they being the five children of my daughter Hester, ye wife of John Browne, unto each ten pounds, males at twenty-one, females at eighteen or day of marriage." To William "Unto my sonne, William, my house in Boston, wherein my sonne in law, Lawrence Willis, now dwelleth with piece of land as I have now stacked out to it, I say, I give the same to him, my second sonne, William, and to his heyres forever, hee to enter upon the same at the death of my daughter, Mary Willis, and not before; besides this, I freely give unto my said sonne, William, a debt to me from Thomas of Blocke Island, being three pound of odd money." To Waitawhile " unto my daughter Waytawhildel, the wife of Josiah Cooper of Boston, five pounds (to be paid as before)." ha also willed pleased God to take away Thomas Cooper, one of ye children above named, my will is yet if she be with child, that child to enjoy ye ten pounds."
