John March (10 June 1658 – July 1712) was in a variety of businesses in Newbury, Massachusetts.
During King William's War, March took part in the Battle of Port Royal (1690) and the failed expedition to Quebec.
[1] March was injured in the Northeast Coast Campaign (1703) and then was put in charge of the Siege of Port Royal (1707).
At least one member of his force, Chaplain John Barnard, urged a more vigorous offensive.
[citation needed] March almost faced a court martial for his cowardice but there were so many other officers involved that it never took place.
