    CUTLER1 (I.) JAMES CUTLER, of Wat., m. (1st), ANNA _____. She was buried Sept. 30, 1644, and he m. (2d), Mar. 9, 1644-5, MARY KING, wid. of Thomas King, of Wat., who d. Dec. 7, 1644. He m. (3d), PHEBE PAGE, dr. or John. [3.] About 1648 he moved from at. to Camb. Farms (Lex.), near Concord line. His Will, dated Nov. 24, 1684, then of Camb. Farms, aged 78, presented by his sons, John and Thomas, and proved Aug. 20, 1694, mentions the following chil., viz.; James, Thomas, John, John Collar, Richard Park's wife, John Parmenter's wife, Sarah Waite, Mary Johnson, Hannah Winter, Joanna Russell (wife of Phillip), Jemima, Samuel and Phebe. This list includes "two children of my wife, formerly wife of Thomas King", one of whom was Mary Johnson.

    COMMENTS: The evidence for the daughter Mary who married John Grout is given by Mary Walton Ferris, who cites a petition in which John Grout refers to Thomas Cakebread (i.e., Family:Thomas Cakebread and Sarah Unknown (1)) as his father-in-law [Dawes-Gates 1:663-64, reproducing the original petition]. (Savage had these marriages completely wrong, as did many other writers.) As Ferris also notes, "If the early claim that Mary, first wife of Ens. John Grout and Anne first wife of James Cutler were sisters, can be proved, it means that Anne was another daughter of Thomas and Sarah (_____) Cakebread" [Dawes-Gates 1:663]. This claim appears only in the secondary literature, and seems unlikely, since the entire estate of Thomas Cakebread seems to have ended up in the hands of John Grout.
