Captain Jeremiah Cushing

Son of Matthew Cushing and Nazareth Pitcher. Grandson of Peter Cushing and Susan Hawes from England.

Second husband of Elizabeth Wilkie, widow of John Wilkie. They were married 11 Mar 1662 in Boston and had two daughters:
* Elizabeth, Mrs William Condy 1663–1713
* Martha Cushing b 1665

Jeremiah was lost at sea on a journey from Boston to London in 1665.

Captain Jeremiah Cushing became a mariner and commanded a ship trading between Boston and London. He resided in Boston and was lost at sea. By the will of his elder brother Daniel, the Hingham patriarch, it appears, that the estate of Jeremiah had descended in part to that testament. Perhaps the remainder was accorded to his wife, Elizabeth, the widow of John Wilkie and his daughter Elizabeth. His wife, in her will, makes mention of her daughter, Elizabeth Condy, and grandson, Jeremiah Condy, and sister, Martha Muzer in Redrif, near London.
