NOTES: The Life of Rebecca Rawson, found on page 279 of Rawson-Coffin Family
History:

Rebecca was the 9th chold of Edward Rawson and is a heroine of a
romantic story. Born in 1656 and having been fondly nurture and carefully
educated, she was pronounced by her contemporaries one of the most beautiful,
polite and accomplished young ladies in Boston. She is represented as being
rather tall, genteel in person and graceful in manner, with a "pleasant wit."
She was greatly admired by the young men of family and distinction in the
Province. Of loving and generous disposition, often lifting her hand to
relieve those in want or distress, a young man of quite respectable appearance
and pleasing address made her acquaintance under the assumed name of Sir Thomas
Hales, Jr., and represented that he was a nephew of Lord Chief Justice Hale of
England, whence he recently came. Her family were inclined to place confidence
in him, and thus he won the love and respect of this most estimable young
woman. They were married in 1679, and being handsomely furnished, embarked for
England.
Anxious to get ashore, they left their trunks aboard and spent the first
night at an inn, and the next at the house of some relatives. Early the next
morning, he arose, took the keys, telling her he would go down to the vessel
and have the trunks sent up in time for her to dress for dinner. The trunks
came, and she waited patiently for him to come with the keys until 2:00 in the
afternoon. Breaking open the trunks, she found herself completely stripped of
everything. He had taken all articles of value out of the trunks, filling them
with worthless trash.
Her kinsman ordered his carriage, and she went to where they had rested
the first night. She inquired for Sir Thomas Hale, Jr, but was told he had
not been there for days. She said she was sure he was there the night before.
They said Thomas Rumsey had been there witha young lady, but was gone to his
wife in Canterbury; and she never saw him afterwards. What a pang of anguish
struck to the heart of this young wife, as she at a glance looked over the
situation. Her cup of joy was suddenly dashed to earth. This man had deceived
her and her family and acted the part of a villain. She also may have felt
remorse at the disgrace she had brought upon her family in choosing him.
During a residence of 13 yrs in England, following her abandonment, she learned
many curious arts, such as painting on glass, etc. and by her ingenuity and
industry procured a genteel sugsistence for herself and child. Her pride did
not allow her to be dependent upon her friends for support.
Finally, almost after numberless urgent solicitations and entreaties
from her father and other friends in New England to return home, she decided to
do so and took passage with one of her uncles in a vessel belonging to him,
bound for Boston by the way of Port Rayal in Jamaica. She left behind her
child in the care of a sister who had no children and desired to keep it.
They arrived safely at Port Royal, but after a few days' delay, when
about to set sail thence for Boston, the ship was swallowed up, with its
passengers and crew, on the morning of the great earthquake, 9 June 1692, which
is said to have destroyed all the shipping in the harbor as well as a portion
of the town itself. Her uncle, who happened to be on shore at the time,
engaged in the settlement of his accounts, was the only person saved out of the
entire ship's company to divulge the sadnew of the fate of this most
accomplished and talented woman.
John G Wittier published a book in 1849, entitled "Leaves from Margaret
Smith's Journal, in the Province of Massachusetts Bay," in which Rebecca and
her father fill prominent parts.
