perhaps was s. of John of the same. JONATHAN, Guilford, br. of
Thomas of the same, d. 1684. JOSEPH, Salem, eldest s. of William,

1671, Phebe, d. of Rev. Francis Dane, had Dorothy, w. d. 23 Sept.
1675; Dane; and perhaps more; was freem. 1691. NATHANIEL, Boston,
by w. Damaris, had Nathaniel, b. 29 Aug. 1655; Elizabeth 24 Feb.
1657; Daniel, 10 Feb. 1667; Mary, 22 June 1668; Robert, 28 July
1671; and Damaris, 29 Dec. 1674; was aft. of Cambridge, freem. 1673.
An earlier NATHANIEL was he of Boston, wh. in his will of 2 Mar. 1667,

1635, aged 30, call. them Robertson, is thot. by me to mean Robinson,
because in the same voyage came Elizabeth 32; Catherine, 12; Mary,
7; John, 5; and Sarah, 1 1/2; all spell, in the latter form, and may have

on the same day, by w. Rebecca had John, bapt. 31 May 1640; but in
the valua. list of ch. mem. in Budington, the name is giv. Robbins.
Yet I presume one person is meant, and the Col. rec. or the ch. rec. is so

plain as any name in the vol. ROBERT, Newbury, m. 26 Oct. 1664.
Mary, d. of Thomas Silver, had Mary, b. 18 Nov. 1665; Daniel, 9 Oct.
1667; John, 12 Dec. 1669; Samuel; Thomas, Sarah; Hannah, 21
Dec. 1683; and Robert, 5 May 1686. Coffin says he was b. 1628, and
from the births of ch,. we should confident. believe, that he was not the
Robert, wh. came from London in the Christian, early in 1635, aged 45,
but of him no discov. is obtain. ROWLAND, Narraganset, b. says Potter,
a. 1654, came 1675, m. Mary Allen, d. of John, but wh. John we ask in

Aug. 1664, Martha, d. of Job Hawkins, had Samuel, b. 19 Dec. 1665;
Thomas, 6 July 1667; Mary, Oct. 1669, d. Aug. foll.; William, 29 July
1671; Job, Nov. 1672, d. in few wks.; and Martha, 20 Jan. 1674. He
was a subject of fine 1669, for entertainm. of Thomas Maule, a Quaker.
SAMUEL, Boston, s. of Thomas, d. 1662; but his est. was so small,
