Notes:
John was a blacksmith. He and his family moved from Dover to Exeter in 1689, after selling his Dover holdings inherited from his father. In 1698 he received 60 acres of land from the Town of Exeter. Also that year of 1698, he united with the newly -formed Congregational Church at Exeter. Then, in 1726, he received another 50 acres of land from the Town (Sinnett, SCRIBNER FAMILIES [note 5], 20-22. We learn the names of John and Elizabeth's children (at least, those who were living on March 2, 1735 from John's will. In the will he speaks of sons Joh, Edward, Samual and Joseph (who he named as Executor, leading us to suspect that Joseph was the oldest), and daughters Elizabeth Moody, Mary Gadon (Gordon), Abigail Young, Susann a Mudget and Sara Moody. John and his son John Jr. are mentioned as part-purchasers of King's Falls Saw Mill in Exeter on 7 August 1723, along with Nathaniel Glidden, Henry Wadleigh, Daniel Ladd and others (N.H. Provincial Deeds, 14:179, quoted by G. W. Chamberlain in hi s book, THE DESCENDENTS OF CHARLES GLIDDEN OF PORTSMOUTH AND EXETER, NEW HAMPSHIRE [Boston: Published by the author, 1925]: 77).

JOHN SCRIVEN:
Listed in Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire (Noyes, et al) on page 615: taxed 1662; Jury 1666; grand jury 1670, 1673. In 1685 his son sold the plantation on which he had lived. Will, 27 Nov 1674 (d. Oct. 1675).

SCRIVEN, SCREVEN, SCRIEVEN, or SCRIVINE, JOHN, Dover 1662, d. 2 Oct. 1675, says Quint, in Genealogy Reg. VIII. 65, though in the same l. he makes his will of 24 Nov. 1674, probably 27 June following that date of its making not of his death. Some error, which is seldom found in so careful a writer must here demand correction. It mentions wife Mary, and children Jon, Edward, Thomas, and Elizabeth, all minors. The daughter perhaps married 1686, Samuel Eastman. John Scriven was the illegitimate son of an English Nobleman, Sir Thomas of Shropshire. John Scribner, Wells, Maine, 1663, Capt. of a coasting vessel plying from Boston to Maine settlements, M. Mary Mills (Thomas), who as his wid. conveyed her Mills inher. to her d. Abigail Wiggin in 1719. page 152 Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire By Sybil Noyes, Charles Thornton Libby, and Walter Goodwin Davis.
John was accepted as an inhabitant of Dover on 5 April 1662. He settled in an area just to the northeast of Dover Town known as "Cocheco," where he had a small farm of 20 acres, "said land being at Cochecha near the east side of the plantation of Richard Otis" (from the deed to John's land, when it was sold by his son, John, to Peter Coffin of Dover in 1685, see PROVINCE DEEDS 20:334).
It was in September of 1662 that he paid his first taxes (John Scales, COLONIAL ERA HISTORY OF DOVER, NEW HAMPSHIRE [1923. Reprint. Bowie, MD: Heritage Books, Inc., 1977], 242).
According to the Inventory of his possessions following his death, John owned a hay barn with 20 acres of land, a few animals (2 oxen, 4 cows, 1 calf, 3 sheep, 1 lamb, 1 mare, a yearling colt and 6 hogs), farm implements and household goods (Inventory of John Scriven's Property, dated 8 October 1675). Interestingly, the inventory also listed 1 musket and sword.
[Note: There is speculation he was the son of Sir Thomas Scribner which could account for the sword. However his birth record identifies his father as Thomas, a sawyer.
Birth:
The birth of John Scriven is recorded on page 51 of Part 1 of the Parish Register for Wem, Shropshire County, England. The original entry reads : "1623, Oct. 27. John, s. of Thomas [Skeinen?], sawyer bap." The question about Thomas' last name is answered on page xvi. of Part 2 (one of the pages where corrections are noted), where it is stated: "Page 51, Line 18. For 'Skeinen,' read 'Skriven.'" In that Wem Register, the mothers' names are not listed.
