JOHN, Charlestown, s. of Thomas, b. in Eng. m. 21 Jan. 1657, Hannah, d. of Richard Kettell, wh. d. 27 Aug. 1708, aged 71, had John, b. 20 Jan. foll. perhaps, and Thomas, both bapt. 6 July 1662; Jonathan, 27 Sept. 1663; Nathaniel, 1 Apr. 1666; Mehitable, 30 Aug. 1668; Calaeb, 2 Oct. 1670; Hannah, 29 June 1673; and Esther, 27 Feb. 1676; d. of smallpox, 1678, all the ch. then liv. But possib. this date of d. may refer, more prob. to first nam. John. Yet ten yrs. later there were John senr. and John, jr. at C. and easi. to be look at as f. and s. So that I prefer to regard this man as the one adm. of the ch. 29 June 1662, wh. was freem. 1671, deac. and d. 9 Apr. 1697
