    2. John Willoughby, son of John1, b. Billerica, Mass., Dec. 24, 1735, was ten years of age when the family removed to Hollis. He served three enlistments in the French and Indian War, in Capt. Peter Powers's company, Col. Joseph Blanchard's regiment, from April 24 to Nov. 25, 1755; in Capt. Amos Gage's company, Maj. Thomas Tash's battalion, from July 21 to Nov. 2, 1757; in Capt. Nehemiah Lovewell's company, Col. John Hart's regiment, from April 27 to Oct. 26, 1758. He m. in Hollis, May 28, 1758, Azubah Wheeler. The date of the marriage falls within the term of service in Col. Hart's regiment. It is of easy explanation, since Col. Hart's regiment, on account of a deficiency of money in the provincial treasury, was detained within New Hampshire until June, 1758. He was one of the grantees of Plymouth and one of the exploring party who came here, 1762. In 1764, with the first families to arrive, he came to Plymouth, removing his family the following year. During the Revolution he was captain of the Plymouth company of Col. Hobart's regiment, and twice in 1777 he led his company into service. (See Vol. 1.) In town affairs he was a good citizen, and to the church he was faithful and loyal, and a deacon sixty-eight years. His wife, Azubah, d. Oct. 1815. He d. June 22, 1834. Three children b. Hollis, and nine b. Plymouth.
