    "2 (I.) Robert Jenison was probably several years younger than his brother William. His name is not on the earliest list of proprietors (Feb. 1636-7), but he had a daughter b. in Wat., Ap., 1637, whioh is the earliest notice of him that I have discovered. He was adm. freeman, May, 1645. His wife Elizabeth d. Oct. 30, 1638, aged 30, and he soon after m. Grace ____, who d Nov. 26, 1686, and he d. July 4, 1690. His Will, dated Sept. 15, 1688, with a codicil, dated Ap. 2, 1689, proved Oct. 7, 1690, mentions dr. Micael Warren, son-in-law George Reed, son Samuel, whom he calls his third son, and grandsons William and Robert Jenison. To his grandsons he gave land that formerly belonged to his brother William. Although he mentions Samuel as his third son, it is not probable that his first and second son survived him or left chil."
