    SKIFF, BENJAMIN, Chilmark 1676, m. 20 Feb. 1680, Hannah,
whose surname may have been Merry. Of him I hear no more, but that
in 1704 he and others were employ. by Gov. Dudley in an import. trust.
JAMES, Sandwich 1643-63, had come from Lynn a. 1637, was rep.
1645 and 13 yrs. more, had Bathshua, b. 21 Apr. 1648, wh. m. perhaps

An Elizabeth Skaffe, the Col. Rec. says, was bur. at Rehoboth, 25 June 1676.
I suppose it means Skiff.

    SKILLING, SKILLIN or SKILLINGS, JOHN, Falmouth 1651 may have
been s. of Thomas. His wid. rem. 1688, to Portsmouth. THOMAS,
Salem 1643, may have belong. rather to Gloucester, where he was in
1642, there, perhaps, had Thomas, b. Nov. 1643; and Abigail, wh. m.
18 Nov. 1670, John Curney, Carney, or Gurny. Perhaps both f. and
s. were of Falmouth in 1665.

1690. His wid. d. 14 Jan. 1726. EDWARD, Cambridge, d. early, perhaps
in 1639, perhaps in 1641, as the articles in Geneal. Reg. II. 103, and III.
81, seem discord. By his will he gave half of his est. to the ch. of C.
and half to Mr. Robert Ibbit of Cambridge, in Old Eng. but calls no w.
ch. or other relat. so that we may infer that he was bach. if not also,
that he came from Co. Cambridge. FRANCIS, was command. of the
fort at Pemaquid, May 1683, as in Geneal. Reg. XI. 33. JOHN, Hartford
1639, had w. Mary, d. of Joseph Loomis, wh. m. 13 Nov. 1651,

and Eliz. 23 Jan. 1669; was freem. 1669, and next yr. of Simsbury.
RICHARD, perhaps of Hartford 1648, may have been f. or br. of John
and Joseph. Perhaps his was that wid. Mary S. wh. m. 13 Nov. 1651,
Owen Tudor. THOMAS, Malden, came from Chichester, in Co. Sussex,
where by w. Mary, were b. his s. Thomas, 25 July 1645; and
