Phillips Sweetser, s/o Phillips Sweetser and Mary Green, b. Malden 2 Jan 1730/1, d. Marlborough, NH, 18 Jul 1808, m. (1) 14 Aug 1755 Sarah Richardson, m. (2) 5 Nov 1762 Mary Parmenter. Came to Leominster with father around 1743, was living in Winchendon by 1779 and went to Marlborough, NH, sometime after 1792 with sons Phillips and Joseph.
↑ The records of Leominster suggest the existence of two separate Phillips Sweetsers, but this is apparently an illusion explained by two notes:
1) The birth of son Samuel in 1765 is apparently mistaken in listing the mother as Sarah, as Phillips had remarried to Mary by then.
2) The records referring to Phillips, Jr., are all church records, while none of the town records use the Jr. label. His father was a founder of the church, but all his father's children were born in Malden, so the church clerk needed to distinguish between the two, while the town clerk did not.
