He signed a petition that Thomas Wells be permitted to preach among them 10 Nov. 1673.(1) Also in 1673 he was fishing for Roger Kelly and then shipped with Hugh Aland of the Isles of Shoals in 1674. He had a town grant of 50 acres in 1699. William mortgaged his homestead to his son George in 1706 which was assigned in 1708 to Pepperell to whom the widow Ann relinquished her rights in 1714/55.

Emmauel Downing was born August 12, 1585 in St. Lawrence Church, Ipswich, Suffolk , England, and died September 26, 1660 in Edinburgh, Lothian, Scotland.He married Ann Ware on January 07, 1613/14 in Edinburgh, Lothian, Scotland, daughter of James Ware and Mary Briden.
Emmanuel's son with his second wife, Lucy Winthrop (sister of Mass. Gov. John Winthrop), was Sir George Downing.
The first person bearing this surname to appear in New England was Thomas Crockett, who came over in a ship called the Pied Cow, as a servant of Capt. John Mason, the owner of the Piscataqua Plantation, in 1633. According to court dispositions he was born probably in Scotland, as early as 1606. He received of Ambrose Giddons, Mason's agent, 23, where he had "e weeks diet" of John Pickering at a cost of 12 shillings. He received a gift of land from Thomas Georges in 1641. Signed submission of York in 1652. His grant of land was the east side of Spruce Creek in Kittery, since called "Crockett's Neck." He was constable in 1657. Thomas lived at Warehouse Point in Kittery and his lands there were designed at Crockett'a neck, Crockett's Cove, and Crockett's Creeks; the two latter names to the same loccality at high and low water. North of the Neck there was an inlet know as Crockett's Brack Cove. When he died in 1679 his widow, Ann, admimistered on his estate, and was married before 1682 to Diggory Jeffreys of Kittery Point. She was living in 1712. His (Crockett's lands and Crockett's Neck were divided among his sons and sons-in- law. Here, then, we find the Scotchman who became the common progenitor of all who bear his surname in New England, seated by the seaside in "Old Kittery," and we may assume with plausability that he subsisted by using the hoe and fish-hook from 1633-1679, a period of 46 years and up to his age of 73 years. Thomas Crockett had a family of eight children of whom record has been found.
Thomas Crockett is no relation to Davy Crockett.
