John Severance (ca. 1609/1615-1682) was born at Ipswich, England, and married Abigail Kimball (d. 1658), daughter of Richard and Ursula Kimball, in 1635 at Ipswich. They had eleven children, 1637-1658. The family immigrated to America in 1637, settled first at Boston, and moved to Salisbury, Massachusetts, in 1639. He died at Salisbury. Descendants of his sons, John Severans (b. 1647); Joseph Severance (1649-before 1725); and Ephraim Severance (1656-1734), lived in Massachusetts, New Hamsphire, Maine, Connecticut, and elsewhere. Record chiefly follows male lines.
