Feb. 1699. * EDWARD, Scituate, came (early eno. to be tax. 2
Jan. 1633 by the Col. Court) from Co. Kent, says Deane; but I feel
doubt of this, for his mo. was sis. of Timothy Hatherly, wh. he thinks
was of Devon. Yet it may be that the sis. of Hatherly was mo. of his

Hanford, and was mo. of Rev. Thomas, came with two ds. in 1635, and
