Worburn, was freem. 1650, by w. Mary, had Judith, b. 30 Sept. 1651;
Mary, 21 Jan. 1653; Nathaniel, 4 Dec. 1655; Elizabeth 6 Mar. 1658; Jonathan,
2 Feb. 1663; and Joseph, 1 May 1672. His w. d. 18 Mar.
1701, and �old Robert� d. 10 Sept. 1706. Farmer assum. that
he might be the ancest. of Gov. Benjamin, a native of Chelmsford,
assigning, in a way not common with that scrupul. antiquary, as a reason,
that the Chelmsford Pierces were from Woburn. ROBERT, Charlestown,
m. 18 Feb. 1657, Sarah Eyre. SAMUEL, Malden, whose w.'s name
I find not, had Mary, b. 20 Aug. 1656; Thomas, 7 Jan. 1658;'
John, and perhaps Joseph, Aug. 1659; of wh. John d. very soon;
and Elizabeth oct. 1666; prob. more, for I suppose he rem. to Charlestown, and
may be the person whose w. Mary join. the Charlestown ch. 27 Mar.
1670, he hav. done so 5 Dec. preced. and brot. to bapt. Samuel, Thomas,
Joseph, Jonathan, John, Mary, Elizabeth and Persis, all 16 Jan. 1670; Abigail,
29 May 1670; Hannah, 31 Dec. 1671; and Benjamin, 15 Aug. 1675.
SAMUEL, Boston 1672, cooper, prob. s. of John of the same, may
have rem. 1677, to Charlestown. SAMUEL, Woburn, s. of Thomas of the
same, freem. 1684, m. 9 Dec. 1680. Lydia Bacon, had Samuel, b. 25 Nov.
1681; Lydia, 25 May 1683; Joseph, 28 Mar. 1685; Isaac, 22
Mar. 1687; Abigail, 27 Feb. 1689; Sarah, 22 Jan. 1691; Tabitha, 28
Aug. 1697, d. next mo.; and Tabitha, again, 19 Mar. 1700. STEPHEN,
fifth s. of Thomas the sec. set at Chelmsford, by w. Tabitha had Stephen,
whose s. Benjamin was gr.f. of the late Presid. of the U. S. says
the memoir of Gov. Benjamin in Geneal. Reg. VII. 10; but the writer
has perhaps sunk one generat. by confu. of one Thomas with ano.
of the same name, prob. the emigr. ancest. THOMAS, Charlestown
1634, freem. 6 May 1635, brot. from Eng. d. Persis, wh. m. William
Bridge, and next, John Harrison, by w. Elizabeth had Abigail, bapt. 17 June 1639,
unless she were ch. of ano. Thomas, as seems not unlikely; for no other
is ascrib. to this one, wh. d. 7 Oct. 1666, and in his will of 7 Nov. preced.
ment. his age of 82 yrs. his w. Elizabeth aged a. 71, s. John, Randall Nichols,
beside gr.ch. Mary Bridge and Elizabeth Jeffts; and gave legacy to the coll.
His wid. Elizabeth mo. of Mary, w. of Peter Tufts, was perhaps his sec. w.
THOMAS, Woburn 1643, may not improb. seem to be s. of the preced. b.
in Eng. liv. first at Charlestown, and may have been f. of that Abigail;
but at W. had John, b. 7 Mar. 1644, d. prob. soon; Thomas, 21 Jan.
1645; Elizabeth 25 Dec. 1646; Joseph, 22 Sept. 1648, d. soon; Joseph,
again, 13 Aug. 1649; Stephen, 16 July 1651; Samuel, 20 Feb. 1654,
d. at 2 yrs.; Samuel, again, 7 Apr. 1656; William, 7 Mar. 1658;
James, 7 May 1659; and Abigail, 20 Nov. 1660. He was freem. 1677
and 13 Nov. of that yr. sold ld. in Charlestown. Thomas, f. of Stephen,
could not be, as the biog. suppos. the same Thomas that d. 7 Oct. 1666,
aged 83 yrs. THOMAS, Setauket, L. I. 1661, had that yr. a commiss. as
