Massachusetts Lieutenant-Governor William Stoughton, son of Israel by Elizabeth Knight (born in England on 30 September 1631), served as a Deputy President of the colony's temporary government from 1674 to 1676 and from 1680 to 1686. He became acting governor in 1694 when Sir William Phips returned to London to defend his administration against claims of corruption (where he died in 1695) until the arrival of Governor Richard Coote, Earl of Bellomont in 1699. The colony's affairs were again in the hands of Stoughton when Bellomont died on 5 March 1701, albeit briefly since he also passed away shortly after on 7 July 1701 (succeeded by Joseph Dudley who arrived in Boston on 11 June 1702).
