Of Plymouth, yeoman. His children by Hannah (Plymouth VR p. 84): Sarah (1694), Mercy (14 Nov 1696), Samuel (1698), John (1700), Ebenezer (1702). His father's will (7 Apr 1714) says: "as To my sons John Samuel & Benjamin and my Daughter Mercy I have done Competently for them in my life time" (MD 11:182-187).
On 20 Mar 1690/1 "John Rider aged 26 yeares or there abouts" testified in court "that ye whale in Controversy Came on shoare agains a pastur fence belonging to James and Tho: Clarke" (Plymouth Colony Records, Scrap Book p. 61, printed in MD 11:186). This was the drift whale that the Plymouth selectmen had attached for the town.
In 1698/9 the town granted him "forty foot of land to Run up from his barns towards the highway ... for his Convenience of building." The surveyors bounded it on 28 Mar 1700, setting a stake "about 6 ffoott" from the southeast corner of his house (Plymouth Town Records 1:268 and following). He was chosen a Plymouth constable in March 1708/9 and served on juries and as a hog constable (Plymouth Town Records 2; record). In 1718, as "John Rider of ... Plymouth .... Yeoman," he sold John Barnes his share of a cedar swamp (Plym. Co. Deeds 14:83; MD 11:186-187). A sale of 1718 also describes land "which I Bought of my Father Saml Rider Deceased" (MD 11).
