Abigail, b. 1686; Mary, 1689; Sarah, 1692, prob. d. young; Sarah,
again, 1695; Margaret, 1697; and Elizabeth 1700; perhaps ano. ch. bef.
Samuel, Y. C. 1728, but the date of his b. I find not. He is absurdly

there were dwellers there, 20 yrs. bef. and so much had it gr. that in
1680, petitn. was offered for its incorpo. as separ. town. He d. 6 July

Nov. foll. Sarah Bradstreet, perhaps d. of John of Topsfield, youngest s.

1672; and perhaps others, besides Peter, wh. I judge was the eldest.
He was tythingman of C. 1679, rep. for Medford 1689, and d. 13 May
1700; aged 83, and his wid. d. Jan. 1703. He made a will 1693, with
