1641; Theophilus, 28 Oct. 1643; Matthew, 21 Oct. 1645; Edmund, 4
Dec. 1647; John, 8 Feb. 1651; Sarah, 8 Feb. 1654; Nathaniel, 21
Mar. 1657; Benjamin, 29 Mar. 1662; and Daniel (wh. careful Mr. Judd
made David) 15 Apr. 1665. Some ground for support of the tradit. of
m. with the d. of Mitchell may appear in two of the names of these
ch. Matthew and Sarah; but I must adher to my conject. a. the time.
When he d. might seem as hard to settle, as his date of m. Cothren tells,
that he d. bef. Oct. 1684, but it was prob. fifteen yrs. later, at least we
kn. that div. of his est. among heirs, whose lang. implies recent dec. of
their ancest. was made Sept. 1700, and deeds by him as late as 1694
can be read. SAMUEL, Boston, s. perhaps of Samuel of Ipswich, by w.
Naomi had Nathaniel, b. 19 Dec. 1659; Samuel, 3 Oct. 1661, d. soon;
and Samuel, again, 24 Apr. 1664. SAMUEL, Stratford, eldest s. of Samuel
of the same, m. 19 June 1665, Mary, d. of Daniel Titterton, had
Mary, b. 7 May 1666; Daniel, 23 Mar. 1669; Susanna, 22 July 1670;
Sarah, bapt. May 1673; Grace, b. 8 July 1676; and Eliz. 1 Jan. 1679
He had sec. w. m. Aug. 1695, Abigail, d. of John Thompson, wid. of
Nicholas Huse, wh. had been wid. of Jonathan Curtis, and d. Feb. 1719.
His wid. d. 1731. SAMUEL, Portsmouth, R. I. s. of Philip, m. 3 Feb.
1681, Martha, d. of John Tripp, had Sarah, b. 10 Apr. 1682; Mary, 1
Dec. 1683; Mehitable, 18 Aug. 1685; Samuel, 12 June 1687; and
Othniel, 29 Jan. 1690. Perhaps he had former w. Sarah, that d. at
Marshfield July 1680. THEOPHILUS, Stratford 1669, was br. of the
sec. Samuel of the same, and a man of distinct. d. early in 1712; but
Cothren gives him no w. or ch. THOMAS, Ipswich 1638. WILLIAM,
Plymouth 1632, may have come in 1629, for to one of the name was
giv. by our Gov. and Comp. in London, liberty to bring in his kine from
Northampton in fourteen days from 26 Feb. doubtless to be emb. in the
fleet with Higginson. He m. 1639, Prudence Hill, whose f. is unkn. to
me, was of Duxbury and Marshfield 1643, had prob. John, b. 1646, and
William; but Winsor may have confus. f. and s. The f. d. or was bur.
25 Oct. 1679. WILLIAM, Marshfield, prob. s. of the preced. m. 25 Dec.
1667, not 26 Dec. 1677, both dates being giv. in Geneal. Reg. VI.
348. Desire, d. of Edward Dotey, had Hannah, b. 1668; Elizabeth 1670,
wh. d. young; William, 1672; Patience, 1674; and Experience, 1678;
and d. perhaps early in 1681. His wid. m. 24 Nov. of that yr. Israel
Holmes and next, Alexander Standish. WILLIAM, Portsmouth, R. I. s.
of Peleg, m. 12 May 1681, Martha, d. of William Wilbor, had William
Thomas, Eleanor, Mary, Elizabeth Peleg, Benjamin, Sarah, and Hannah. He
m. it is said, sec. w. in 1697, Mercy, d. of Peregrine White. Most of fams.
of this name in R. I. write it with a aft. e but in early days it was usual.
