John was born at Rehoboth in 1652, the third child on record of Nicholas Ide.

King Philip's War. In December 1675, at about twenty-three, he went with the Rehoboth men on the Narragansett campaign. The town's list, printed by Bliss from a record now lost, reads: "Those engaged in the Narraganset expedition, were, John Fitch, Jonathan Wilmarth, Jasiel Perry, Thomas Kendrick, Jonathan Sabin, John Carpenter, John Redeway, John Martin, John Hall, John Miller, Jun., John Ide, Joseph Doggett, Sampson Mason, Jun." (Bliss, History of Rehoboth, p. 117). Plymouth's men marched in the companies of Major William Bradford and Capt. John Gorham.

Rehoboth was burned on 28 Mar 1676 (Bliss p. 95). His mother was buried on 3 Nov 1676, and John six weeks later, "the middle of December, 1676" (Vital Record of Rehoboth, p. 900), one of some twenty Rehoboth burials of that half-year. He seems to have left no children: in 1733, when the soldiers of the campaign and their heirs were granted Narragansett No. 4, his right went to "John Ide ... Timothy, brother," his brother Timothy Ide (Soldiers in King Philip's War, pp. 427, 463).

Open questions

  • How he died in December 1676.
