"Waite, John, the head of the family which came to the Portland area, was born in Newbury, Massachusetts, February 6, 1702, son of Jonadab Waite, and was captain of a packet which sailed between this place and Boston as early as 1737. He married Sarah Kent, daughter of John Kent, Jr., of Newbury, in 1724. She was born March 7, 1704, and died November 3, 1769." Note that Sarah's death date is incorrect (it is referenced in the book as the same date as John Waite's death).
