Rev Stephen Bachiler born in England 1561 was well educated (B.A. Oxford 1586), and had received orders in the established church but was not in sympathy with his rites and institutions. His unwillingness to conform to its requirements resulted in his being deprived of his ecclesiastical commissions. He spent a few years in Holland but returned to London. Came to Lynn, Mass. Jun 5,1632 and here he established the first Episcopal Church of Lynn according to his own ideas. Differences occurred from time to time but finally when a council of ministers was called, it was decided that although the church had not been properly instituted, yet the mutual exercise of their religious duties had supplied the defect. His removal from Lynn was desired by those who differed from him, but where in that day did not religious differences lead to enmity.

Rev. Stephen Bachelor removed from Lynn, Mass. to Ipwich, where he received a grant of fifty acres of land and a proposal to locate but he soon left Ipwich and with some friend, John King and others to Mathcheese on the Barnstable Bay, now Yarmouth, with a view of establishing a colony there. This proved improcticable and he went next to Newburyport and 7-6-1638 received a grant of land from the town. Later the general Court gave him permission to settle a town at Hampton a few miles from Newburyport. In 1639 Ipwich offered him 160 acres of land if he would live there but he declined.
