Birth: 1620, England
Educ: Kittery, ME
John was a legatee with his daughter Elizabeth Atkins, under the will of his sister Mrs. Elizabeth Saffin. He may or may not have lived in Barbadoes. He may or may not have lived in Kittery, ME. In all probability he was the father of one son who did live here, named Humphrey.

Birth: Tattershall, Lincoln, England

Spouse: Thomas Atkins
1.1.2 Humphrey Scammon
Birth: 1640, Portsmouth, NH (Kittery Point, York, ME?)
Death: 1 Jan 1727, Saco, ME
Occ: Ferry operator and tavern owner
Was the first Scammon born in America. He lived in Kittery, ME until 1679, when he moved to Saco, ME and purchased the estate of Henry Waddock, which consisted of about 200 acres of land along the East bank of the Saco River, about 1/2 mile from the rivers mouth. Humphreys home was located near the ferry, which he operated as well as a tavern for the entertainment of travelers.
First seen in America in Oct 1667 when widow Sarah Abbott withdrew a suit against him for refusing to satisfy her for lodging, etc., and for fish lent him in her husbands lifetime.
In May 1674, no residence given, he bought land in Wells, ME from N. Fryer.
Kittery 1677; chosen Cape Porpoise constable Feb 1678-9; of Cape Porpoise, bought the Henry Waddock farm in Saco, ME on 4 Dec 1679 and there was given town privilege and a ferry license in June 1680, followed by a tavern license from 1680-1686; townsman & comr. to take the lists to York 1682; j. 1684; gr. j. 1685; goodman S. & Edw. Sargent to collect the ministers salary in 1685; he to see the ministers cellar dug and stoned in 1686. Deputy 1686. Blackmans Falls on Dunstan River where he formerly had a sawmill mentioned in 1720. He returned to Kittery in wartime, and bought Mrs. J. Brays estate in 1694; culler of fish 1695-6; gr. j. 1699; returned to Saco to be taken captive with wife and sons Humphrey & Samuel in 1703. One Humphrey was a resident of Truro, Mass. when that town was incorporated.
He made his will in Kittery, ME on 12 Mar 1713-4, probably returned to Saco as soon as possible, and there sold at Kittery Point in 1725.
He died 1 Jan 1727 at age 87.
In 1697, Indians attacked the settlement at Saco & with others, took Humphrey & his family captive. They were taken to Canada and spent about one year in captivity. When peace was restored, they returned to Saco & found that the only item to survive the Indian raid a year earlier was a beer mug which was found outside their ruined home. This mug has been preserved as a memorial to the hardships & sufferings endured by our forefathers. The mug is a brown earthenware with alternate stripings of violet & blue & bears a medallion of King William stamped on the front.
The name of Humphreys wife is unknown, probably Elizabeth Unknown.
In his will he stipulated that 1/2 acre of land at the ferry place be reserved forever as a burying place for my relations. The exact site of Humphreys final resting place cannot be found, but the slate markers on the graves of his two sons are visible today.
