  William Ames - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
WILLIAM AMES (1576-1633), English Puritan divine, better known, especially in Europe, as Amesius, was born of an ancient family at Ipswich, Suffolk, in 1576, and was educated at the local grammar school and at Christ's College, Cambridge, where, as throughout his life, he was an omnivorous student.
He was considerably influenced by his tutor, the celebrated William Perkins, and by his successor, a man of kindred intellect and fervour, Paul Bayne.
While thus resident in comparative privacy he was sent for to the Hague by Sir Horatio Vere, the English governor of Brill, who appointed him a minister in the army of the states-general, and of the English soldiers in their service, a post held by some�of the greatest of England's exiled Puritans.

The Ames children testified that they had put money into the property in addition to time and effort on the representation of Joan Ames that it was their property, or to be conveyed to them when they were adults.
Ames was deprived of his property (Tracts C, D, and E) as alleged in the children's counter-claim as grounds for denying Joan Ames' interest in the one-half of Tract F she acquired from William in the divorce.
The Ames children cite four cases to establish that William still had an interest in Tract F at his death since the deed to Joan Ames had never been given to her or retrieved by her from the Superior Court in Fairbanks (Ames Parties Pretrial Memorandum at 7).

Ames was unequivocal in stating that God controls the universe and that humans do not "change" or "determine" God's behavior in any way.
The "Future Contingencies" doctrine was developed in the middle ages among such thinkers as William of Ockham, De Prædestination et de Præscientia Dei et de Futuris Contingentibus (On Predestination and on Foreknowledge of God and On Future Contingencies).
Ames rejects that notion because it makes God's actions responsive to the creatures' choices rather than vice versa.

 William Ames of Braintree
He was a iron-worker and had probably learned his trade in England, for he was 30 years old when he reached America; and a man of that age who did not already have some special occupation would probably turn farmer where the land was almost free.
When need arose he was able (as William's great-great-grandson proved) to turn out without machinery such intricate pieces of mechanism as the flint-lock musket.
William may have come to Braintree because an excellant quality of bog-ore had been discovered in the swamps there; and it was this ore that led to the establishment of the first plant in America fior smelting and cast in iron.
