Notes
General:
Richard BISHOP, born 1612, England, died 30 Dec 1674, Piscataway, New Jersey. When Richard Bishop was about 16, he signed on as a soldier with John Endicott who sailed on the "Abigail" from Weymouth, England to Salem, Massachusetts in 1628. He was a first settler in Duxbury but was living in Plymouth in 1628 when he hired himself out to Love Brewster (son of Elder William Brewster) for a small salary and 20 bushels of Indian Corn. On 1/4/1640 he hired Nathaniel Souther to work for him. He was also listed on the August 1643 list of "Males 16 to 60 who were able to bear arms". At a town meeting at Eastham, MA on 5/22/1655, settlers were divided into groups of five men and each group was to keep a bull. Richard Knowles, Joseph Rogers, George Crisp, Thomas Roberts, and Richard Bishop were one group. On March 6, 1649 in Plymouth, he was presented at court for stealing a neighbor's spade. He was found guilty and sentenced to both sit in stocks and to replace the spade before the June Court or he would be whipped. He did not comply! He had moved to Eastham, MA by 1654 and had tracts of land allotted to him, but he still had his problems. In 1670 he entered George Crisps' property and helped himself to the fleece taken from the sheep. He was arraigned and ordered to pay thirty shillings - which he did. Soon after this incident, he sold his property to Capt. Church and moved to Piscataway, New Jersey to live with his only daughter Damaris and son-in-law William Sutton.

The Cape Codder
Station Chatham hails new surfman
By Matthew Belson/ mbelson@cnc.com
Friday, April 28, 2006
CHATHAM - The Chatham bar is legendary, if not infamous, for its ability to change from flat calm to a wall of runaway breakers that can toss even the most stalwart of boats and test the skills of the saltiest of captains. For the men and women assigned to Coast Guard Station Chatham, seamanship skills are prized and constantly honed for those times when small boat crews are called upon to go forth into a foaming white sea to save lives.
As a surf station, one of only two small boat stations in Massachusetts that are classified as such, the shallow waters and ever changing channels remain a constant challenge for Coast Guard coxswains. Becoming skilled to operate a boat (a coxswain) is an achievement at the station, but to attain the qualification of a surfman, who has completed advanced training to operate a boat in rough surf, is rare.
During a simple ceremony at the station Monday, Boatswain’s Mate First Class Robert Bitinas, 25, of Lowell, received the pin of crossed oars on a life ring designating him as a surfman. He joins the ranks of only about 170 coxswains in the entire Coast Guard qualified as surfman.
Chief Petty Officer David Considine, officer-in-charge for Station Chatham, and a surfman, said the training required often takes three to six years to complete.
"The motto of a surfman is ’You have to go out, but you don’t have to come back,’" said Considine, and that Bitinas would often come in on his day off to work on his training.
While most people would stay home when the warning flags indicate the presence of strong winds and rough seas, for the Coast Guard a turbulent bar is viewed as a training opportunity and crews will head out in their motorized lifeboats to practice safely maneuvering in the angry waters.
"To become a surfman you have to understand what it means to be humbled," said Master Chief Petty Officer Jack Downey, the officer-in-charge of the USCGC Hammerhead, an 87-foot patrol boat based out of Woods Hole.
Downey was once in charge of Station Chatham and during the ceremony pinned his own surfman’s badge on Bitinas.
Considine explained that a ceremony would be held for any member at the station who achieves the qualification of surfman. Their names will be engraved on a plaque honoring Joshua James, one of the Coast Guard’s revered heroes from the old U.S. Life Saving Service who continued to save lives until his death at the age of 75.
For Bitinas, becoming a surfman has been a goal ever since he joined the Coast Guard more than six years ago.
"It’s quite an honor to be a part of the elite," he said, and emphasized that the coxswain just steers the boat and that it takes a team to do the job and save lives. "It’s not the surfman, it’s the crew. You can’t take the boat out by yourself."
