"No record has been found of the birth of any children to them, but the following quotation from the preface to volume 24 of the Reports of the Record Commissioners (Boston) gives, I believe, a satisfactory explanation of this:
__It is needless to say the record is approximately perfect only to 1745, after that date the number gradually diminishing until it becomes a small fraction of the births which of course took place.__
For the reasons more fully set forth in Chapter Two of this narrative, I believe GEORGE MILLS, of Chesterfield and Broadalbin, to have been one of the children of GEORGE MILLS, of Boston, and Mary, his wife, - if not their first child, then their second."
Evidence suggests that both George and his son George Jr. were members at the same time in the Militia Company of Captain Robert Webster.
